Rebirth in 1985

Chapter 81 A dramatic reunion

The next day, Lu Shaohua got up early. He had important things to do today. After getting up, he reread the plan he wrote yesterday to see if there were any omissions. After making some minor revisions, he breathed a sigh of relief with satisfaction. Looking at the dozen or so pages of neatly arranged text, he felt indescribably proud. This was also true. Although he had dropped out of school in his previous life, it was recognized that he had a good handwriting.

It took me half an hour to finish reading the plan. When I walked out of the room, I found that Chen Guobang had also gotten up and was helping. "Brother, come with me to have breakfast. I have to go out to do something after breakfast."

"Wait a moment." Chen Guobang turned around and nodded to Lu Shaohua, put down the work in his hands, said something to Lu Jiahui next to him, and then walked towards Lu Shaohua. "I'm going to take a shower and change clothes."

"Yeah," Lu Shaohua smiled. "Hurry up."

"Good."

……

After having a quick breakfast at Weng Wende's restaurant, Weng Wende told his employees that he was going out and then sat in the co-pilot seat, responsible for giving directions.

The car was driving slowly on Shennan Avenue. Lu Shaohua leaned back and moved his butt to find a comfortable position. Then he asked Weng Wende who was sitting in front of him, "Brother Wende, did you bring any gifts to his house? Like a red envelope or something like that?"

"No, if I give a red envelope, I will definitely be kicked out." After saying that, Weng Wende thought for a while, turned his head and said to Chen Guobang: "Guobang, let's stop at a tobacco and liquor store and buy some cigarettes and alcohol."

When Weng Wende said this, Lu Shaohua was immediately happy. As a reborn person, how could he not know to ask the officials to bring cigarettes and alcohol? He had already prepared them, but just put them in the trunk, and Weng Wende didn't know about it. "Haha! Those are ready, and I also brought some fruits."

"Hahaha!" Weng Wende laughed heartily, and reached out from the front to pat Lu Shaohua's leg. "You're not bad, kid! You know the ways of the world."

Lu Shaohua was speechless, so he simply stopped talking and closed his eyes to rest.

……

Drive along Shennan Avenue towards Futian District.

"Turn left...right...at the fork below, turn right eight..." Weng Wende used his hands and mouth to point the way for Chen Guobang.

"turn right……"

……

"We're here, park here."

The car stopped steadily. Weng Wende opened the door and got out first. Lu Shaohua followed him down, opened the trunk, took out something and handed it to Weng Wende. The meaning was obvious: those things would be delivered in Weng Wende's name.

Weng Wende smiled and nodded knowingly to show that he understood.

After taking the things, Lu Shaohua closed the rear hall and said to Chen Guobang who had just got off the car: "Brother, don't go in. Drive the car around and come back to pick us up later."

It's not that Lu Shaohua was unwilling to let Chen Guobang in, but Chen Guobang's figure showed that he was a soldier. The officials were all ruthless people, and bringing a soldier with him was obviously a bodyguard. They were guests now, so what was the big deal about bringing a bodyguard with him?

"I'll drive the car over there and wait for you. I won't go around anymore." Chen Guobang was very smart. He knew from the look on Lu Shaohua's face that he was a guest. It would not make sense for him to follow him in.

"Whatever." Lu Shaohua didn't say much, turned around and followed Weng Wende towards the door.

"Ding-dong, ding-dong." Weng Wende had things in both hands, so Lu Shaohua had no choice but to go up and ring the doorbell.

Not long after, the door opened a little, and a small human head stretched out. Lu Shaohua recognized this small head, but unfortunately, Lu Shaohua was already standing behind Weng Wende and did not see who the head was.

"Haha!" The person who opened the door first chuckled, and then the door slowly opened. "Brother Wende."

"Hahaha!" Weng Wende laughed. "Is your father home?"

"Yes, please come in, I'll go call him."

"Ah."

……

Hearing their conversation, Lu Shaohua felt that the little girl's voice was very familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere before, but he couldn't remember where. "Hey! You can see who it is later, why bother to guess."

Following Weng Wende inside, the first thing that appeared in Lu Shaohua's eyes was a large living room with a set of sofas and a TV. On the left was a staircase leading to the second floor, and on the right was a kitchen and a dining room. This layout was no different from Lu Shaohua's villa in Hong Kong, except for the size of the floor space.

Just as Lu Shaohua was secretly observing the layout of the house, a middle-aged man who looked to be in his thirties or forties came down from upstairs. He was wearing a white shirt under a black suit. He had a square face, not very long hair combed back, revealing a broad forehead, and a piercing look that seemed to be able to penetrate people's hearts.

"Haha! Uncle!" Weng Wende smiled and nodded politely.

"Yeah!" The middle-aged man nodded without any expression on his face, glanced at what Weng Wende was holding, then glanced at Lu Shaohua, and said in a superior tone. "Sit down."

Lu Shaohua's face was calm as water, he didn't mind. He knew that people who have been in official circles for many years are all like this. No matter whether they meet acquaintances or strangers, they all have the same expression, which is cold. This can be said to be an occupational disease.

As the host, the middle-aged man of course sat down first. Weng Wende put the things he brought aside before sitting down. Lu Shaohua followed closely behind him, but as soon as he sat down, he heard that familiar voice again. This time it was not saying anything else, but calling him.

"Brother Xiaohua."

Lu Shaohua was sure that he had not heard wrongly, so he looked up in the direction of the voice. It was that familiar face, with her long hair still braided into two small braids, her fair skin slightly flushed, and her sweet smile. Lu Shaohua was stunned for a moment, unable to utter a word.

"Brother Xiaohua, didn't you go to Hong Kong? Why are you coming to my house?"

Lu Shaohua suddenly came to his senses and smiled. "Yuling!"

The girl who was talking was Zeng Yuling. Lu Shaohua had planned to go see her after work, but he didn't expect to run into her here. From her tone, this was still her home, and the person sitting here must be his father. Lu Shaohua understood everything when he thought about it. It turned out that Weng Wende's backer was Zeng Yuling's family, who were also old friends.

"You're so annoying!" Zeng Yuling stomped her feet on the ground and said in a coquettish tone. "You haven't answered my question yet? Why did you come to our house?"

"I just came back from Hong Kong a few days ago." Lu Shaohua did not answer Zeng Yuling's question, but just explained that he had just returned from Hong Kong.

Zeng Yuling pouted to show her dissatisfaction with Lu Shaohua, and moved her mouth to ask about coming to their house again, but before she opened her mouth, the middle-aged man sitting there spoke first. "Yuling, don't be so rude, he is a guest invited by Dad."

The middle-aged man already knew everything when he saw Lu Shaohua just now. Weng Wende also mentioned Lu Shaohua's age when he called him. This was one of the reasons why he agreed to meet with Lu Shaohua. In addition to his curiosity about Lu Shaohua, another reason was that he was very interested in the project.

"I know!" Zeng Yuling seemed a little unwilling, but she was still a child after all, and her mood changed quickly. After a while, she became cheerful again and enthusiastically introduced Lu Shaohua and the others to each other.

"Dad! He is Brother Xiaohua. I often go to his store to eat lychees. They are so sweet!" After saying that, Zeng Yuling licked her lips, as if she was savoring the taste of lychees.

"Brother Xiaohua, he is my father." Zeng Yuling said, walked to Lu Shaohua's side, turned around to look at the middle-aged man, and then whispered: "Call Zeng Aimin."

Although the voice was low, the living room was so small that Zeng Yuling's voice still reached Zeng Aimin's ears. He doted on this little daughter and could only shake his head helplessly. "Okay, Yuling, sit aside. Dad has something to talk to your brother Xiaohua about."

"Got it." Zeng Yuling made a face and sat down next to Lu Shaohua.

Lu Shaohua could only smile bitterly and didn't say a word from beginning to end. It was not that he didn't want to speak, but he didn't know how to speak. He could only wait quietly for Zeng Aimin to speak.
