The entertainment tycoon of the Republic of China

Five days before the official wedding day, Wen Rui and An Yujing went to Shanghai to pick up Wen Yanhui.

Xie Yan put down everything at hand and made a special trip to wait for them at home.

During lunch, there was a loud noise outside the door, Xie Yan got up and went out, first saw Wen Rui and An Yujing walking side by side, then looked back, only to see a man wearing a hat wrapped in a coat woman.

An Yujing turned his head and took the woman's hand, "Yanhui, we're home."

The woman nodded without saying a word.

Xie Yan went up to greet her, and only after getting closer did she see what Wen Yanhui looked like now.

Eyebrows and lips have been carefully drawn, and the expression is not a bit shy and introverted at the beginning, but it is not fresh.Under the white cashmere hat, there was delicate and fashionable curly hair. The camel coat wrapped the body, and a wide leather belt was tied around the waist, outlining the graceful curves.

Although I don't care about it, but one share after another, the style is inadvertently revealed.

Except for the facial features, the girl in front of her has almost nothing to do with the taciturn Wen Yanhui in Xie Yan's memory.

Seeing Xie Yan approaching, Wen Yanhui's eyes flickered, and finally there was some light, but soon turned dim again.

"Mr. Xie."

"Regrets, welcome home."

"Ah."

Wen Yanhui showed a faint smile, clearly standing here, but it seemed to be just an illusory shadow.

Xie Yan knows that Wen Yanhui still has many secrets that have not been solved, but there is no doubt that during the days of her disappearance, those secrets have completely transformed her.Whether this transformation is good or bad, only time will tell.

Later, Wen Yanhui talked about his experiences these days.

After being tricked out of the house by Hong Juntao that day, she was kidnapped by Hong Juntao and the Japanese.In desperation, she took advantage of the chaos to escape, but just after she got out of the trap, she boarded a pirate ship, was hijacked by a group of thieves, and was taken to Shanghai and sold as a dancer in a nightclub.

After entering the nightclub, all kinds of encounters made her heartbroken. If Wen's guy hadn't happened to find her, she might never have chosen to contact her family.

……

There are almost no loopholes in Wen Yanhui's rhetoric, but combined with other intelligence inferences, there are still many unreasonable places.But looking at her tortured appearance, as a family member, it is not easy to force her to explain more.

In the end, Xie Yan and the others discussed it, and decided to investigate the matter in detail after a few days, when Wen Yanhui calmed down a bit.

After returning home, Wen Yangui changed his usual attitude and took the initiative to take over some wedding preparations. He was capable and neat in doing things, and he could handle things in an orderly manner, which made many servants look up to him.

Ordinary servants didn't know the real experience of Wen Yanhui, they only thought that the third young lady suddenly became enlightened after going to live with her relatives for a few days, and after being amazed, they all felt that people should go out and exercise more.

Wen Yanhui's arrival relieved the pressure on Mrs. Wen and Xie Yan. There were still a few days before the official wedding, and there were only some small but tedious tasks left. Under Wen Yanhui's insistence, Xie Yan simply put all the relevant matters Leave it to her, and go to other affairs by herself.

Since the publication of Minzhi Monthly, it has caused a wave of enthusiasm among Chinese scholars at home and abroad. More and more scholars come to Hankou for exchanges, studies, discussions and debates. Hankou is faintly becoming a new academic center.

Xie Yan took the opportunity to propose the establishment of the Huaxia Academic Association to provide a platform for scholars who intend to join to speak out and communicate. As for the first president of the association, Mr. Wen Lao was naturally elected.Originally, some people were prejudiced against Xie Yan because of his age and relationship, but under the prestige of Mr. Wen, it soon became unpopular.

Xie Yan took the time to meet some like-minded young scholars during this time. The young man who "stealed" the engine blueprints while studying in Germany also tried his best to return to China recently.

Speaking of the thrilling experience along the way, Xing Yu, an international student, has lingering fears.

"The domestic situation in Germany is very tense, and the whole of Europe is in chaos. I always feel that just one spark will explode... Not long after that telegram was sent, I took advantage of their preoccupation and bought the German police to send me to the Netherlands. I bought the fastest ferry ticket from the Netherlands at a high price to return home."

Guan Cheng felt nervous when he heard that, "Brother Xing has worked hard all the way."

"Being able to return to the motherland with knowledge and technology is worth it to me." Xing Yu waved his hand, "By the way, Mr. Xie, I will entrust you with my laboratory and follow-up research."

"Don't worry, as I said before, I will fully support your research work."

"That's good, it's better to go back to the motherland." Xing Yu smiled and breathed a sigh of relief, "Staying in Germany is really too depressing. Not only will you be discriminated against, but there is always the danger of war."

Guan Cheng has been studying abroad and returned to China for two or three years, and he doesn't know much about the situation in Europe. "Is Europe really going to fight?"

"I'm not a scholar in this area. I can only say that from my feeling, there will be a war sooner or later. As for the scale and how long it will last, I don't know."

When Xing Yu and Guan Cheng were discussing the situation in Europe, Xie Yan did not intervene. As a modern person from another time and space, he was well aware of the time and scale of the upcoming war in Europe—the First World War, which lasted four years and affected dozens of An unprecedented world war in which more than [-] million people were killed or injured in one country.

Even if many details of this time and space are different from that of that time and space, the inevitability of historical development will still lead to the occurrence of this war.

Xie Yan is unable to influence the battlefields of countries far away in Europe. He just wants to help China achieve better development as much as possible while Europe is in chaos and has no time to take care of Asia, so that modern history will not be so dark.

This goal is a long way to go, but Xie Yan believes that it will be achieved, because he has never fought alone.

For this reason, he has done countless planning deduction, and he can achieve many goals by taking advantage of the chaos of the Europeans, such as the first one that can be solved - taking back the racetrack.

"Mr. Xiao Xie, Mr. Xiao Xie?"

When Xie Yan was in a daze, Guan Cheng and Xing Yu had stopped talking at some point, and they all looked at Xie Yan.

"Huh? What's wrong?"

"Xing Yu said just now that he finished reading several of your novels on the way to Hankou, and wanted to ask you when the finale of Yulong Ji will come out." Guan Cheng was a little speechless, "Mr. Xie, if you are tired, remember rest."

"I'm not tired, I was thinking about other things just now." Xie Yan waved his hand, "The ending of Yulongji novel may take some time, but the storytelling side will soon end. If Brother Xing is interested, I can Arrange some front row tickets for you."

"It's a deal!" Xing Yu smiled, "But Brother Guan is right, Mr. Xie is going to get married soon, you should take more rest these few days, the specific matters related to the experiment, we will wait for you to get married Let's talk again."

"By the way, remember to give me an invitation card for the wedding banquet, I have specially prepared a gift!"

"It's easy to say, I'll ask someone to deliver the invitation later."

Although it was only the first time they met, Xing Yu left Xie Yan with the same impression as meeting Guan Cheng and others.In this group of aspiring young people, Xie Yan can see the hope for the future of this nation and this country.

After returning to Wen's house with the materials, Xie Yan went to her own small reception room as usual.

The wedding day is about to be held. An Yujing went back to her uncle and aunt's house to prepare for her marriage with peace of mind. It is said that on the day An Yujing returned, Mrs. Wen made a special trip to accompany her to visit An's house. An Yujing's uncle and aunt completely stopped making trouble.

According to the rules and procedures, Xie Yan should also live in Bai Luoqiu's house for a few days, but on the one hand, he is a man, and on the other hand, it is more convenient to handle affairs in Wen's house, so Xie Yan has not left, and plans to go to Bai's house to do it the night before the wedding. Make a show.

Ever since Mrs. Wen decided to hold a wedding for the two young masters, the Wen Family Courtyard has never stopped being busy. Especially in the past few days, Wen Yanhui has been appointed as a new official three times, and has formulated a lot of rules. The servants are busy everywhere. Turning around, there are a lot fewer servants on duty in the mansion.

Xie Yan walked through the empty corridor, turned a corner, and suddenly saw a figure in front of him.

"Regret?"

Wen Yanhui was startled by the sudden appearance of Xie Yan, and quickly returned to normal.

"What are you doing here?" Xie Yan frowned. Among the rooms leading to this road, only his reception room was used.

"I found that the account for purchasing the bouquet for the wedding is a bit wrong, and I want to come to you for advice."

"...This kind of trivial matter, you can decide by yourself."

Xie Yan looked at Wen Yanhui, the girl looked calm and answered freely, without any trace of abnormality.

He was about to ask further questions when the butler suddenly appeared behind them.

"Miss San, you are here - Mr. Xie is also here."

"what happened?"

"Miss Miao Erya has come to the house and wants to meet Miss San."

"..."

After Wen Yanhui came back, for some unknown reason, he didn't go to see his closest friend back then, and even specifically told Xie Yan and the others not to disclose their whereabouts to each other.

However, the fire could not be wrapped in paper, and Miao Erya finally got the news that Wen Yanhui had returned home.

The girl lowered her head and pinned a strand of curly hair behind her ear, wondering what she was thinking.

"If you have her in your heart, cherish every opportunity and don't regret it later."

Wen Yanhui raised his head abruptly, "Mr. Xie?"

"Go." Xie Yan waved his hand, "At least Erya has always regarded you as her best friend, it's not fair to both of you."

……

Xie Yan looked at Wen Yanhui's back as he left in a hurry, and sighed.

Wen Yanhui's vague feelings for Miao Erya, under An Yujing's reminder, Xie Yan also gradually discovered the clues.

However, at present, Miao Erya only has a friendship with Wen Yanhui without any distractions, and how long can the young man's heart last, and where will it go?

Xie Yan shook his head, and he could only persuade Wen Yanhui not to leave too many regrets when his heart is still moving.

After sighing, Xie Yan's expression became serious, and he walked quickly to the door of his reception room. The locked door showed no sign of being forcibly opened, and when he entered the room, some places where important materials were placed were also intact.

Could it be... Was it really his illusion?

……

On the first floor of Wen's mansion, Miao Erya thanked the maid for the tea, but she didn't have the heart to taste it, she was both delighted and puzzled.

He was delighted that Xiaoyan had finally returned home after being missing for so long, but he was puzzled why she didn't come to find him, and didn't even report that he was safe.If she hadn't overheard the conversations of several Wen family servants who went out to buy things, Miao Erya would still be kept in the dark.

Miao Erya picked up the tea in front of her, brought it to her mouth without taking a sip, then put it down straight away, feeling as anxious as if thousands of ants were crawling.

Suddenly, she heard footsteps coming downstairs.

Miao Erya raised her head and froze in place.

The girl in an improved dress slowly went downstairs, her figure was slim, her steps were elegant, and her delicate curly hair shone sharply in the sun.

"...Xiaoyan?"

Miao Erya asked in a daze, "Are you really Xiaoyan?"

Wen Yan regretfully smiled, "What? Can't you recognize me?"

Wen Yan regretted this smile, and Miao Erya finally saw a bit of the shadow of the girl from the past.

"Where have you been these days? Do you know that you're worried about me to death! Also, what's the matter with your hair? How did your clothes change—"

Wen Yanhui shook his head with a smile, "Ask slowly, and I'll talk to you slowly."

"Okay, let me tell you, I guess it will take me a year to enter high school, isn't it amazing? Let's go to school together in a few days, and you tell me stories slowly. Your No. 1 exam doesn't go to school, It is still remembered by the teachers to this day!"

The more Miao Erya talked, the more excited she became, she took Wen Yanhui's hand and told in detail what she had seen and heard at school.

The girl tied her hair behind her ears, tilted her head and listened carefully to the other person's chatter, without a trace of impatience, as if she was listening to the most beautiful fairy tale in the world.

However, the excited Miao Erya didn't notice that from the beginning to the end, the girl with a faint smile in her eyes didn't answer her invitation with a "yes".
