The entertainment tycoon of the Republic of China

"Sir, you will succeed." Wen Yanhui looked at the silent Xie Yan, not understanding what the other party was thinking, but felt an inexplicable wave in his chest.

"It's not that I will succeed, but the Chinese people of this era will definitely succeed."

Even without him, the native Chinese of this era will continue to strive for self-improvement in the dark and muddy. It will take nearly a hundred years and millions of sacrifices to try out a winding and bumpy road to independence. Otherwise, where would it come from? The bright future he saw?

Xie Yan let out a long sigh of relief. What he has to do is to contribute to this struggle in the trend of the times, and use his own efforts to make this road even a little bit smoother.

"Okay, we—"

"Dong dong dong."

Xie Yan was about to bring the topic back to teaching when he suddenly heard a knock on the door.

The rest of the Wen family have their own business, who would bother at this time?Xie Yan and Wen Yanhui looked at each other, both of them had some doubts in their eyes, thinking of Wen Yanhui's delicate situation and status in the Wen family, he pressed down on the female student, got up and went to open the door by himself.

The door opened, and standing outside was Fu Zhu, the big maid who brought Xie Yan over just now.

"Mr. Xie." Seeing Xie Yan, Fuzhu smiled dimpled, "Just now the concierge came and said that Mr. Wen brought a lady to visit the master. The lady is busy with other things and can't receive the lady for the time being. The lady said She met you, the housekeeper asked me to bring her up to sit with you and the third lady for a while, and then report to Madam to disturb your studies."

Mr. Wen?Miss?Xie Yan was a little dazed when she heard the name she had just mentioned to Wen Yanhui.Why did Mr. Wen suddenly come to Wen's house, and who was the young lady he brought with him? How did he know him?It only took him a few days to travel to this era, and he could count the people he knew on one hand. Who would have anything to do with that famous literary master, Mr. Wen?

Xie Yan was full of doubts, so she collected her mind and looked behind Fuzhu, only to see An Yujing, whom she had just met yesterday, standing in the corridor, seeing him, smiled and made a helpless gesture.

"Miss An." Xie Yan was a little surprised, "Why are you here?"

"I came here with Mr. Wen. Mr. Wen was invited by Mr. Wen to reminisce about the past. Mrs. Wen seems to be busy today. The housekeeper doesn't know how to entertain me. Hearing that I know you, let me come up to find you."

An Yujing smiled and repeated Bian Fuzhu's words, and was let into the bedroom by the maid, while Wen Yanhui also walked from his seat to the door to watch.

The two girls with completely different temperaments and dresses looked at each other, and they both secretly looked at each other curiously, and neither of them spoke for a while.

"This is the third miss of the Wen family, Wen Yanhui." Xie Yan had no choice but to take the responsibility of introducing, "This is Miss An Yu Jing'an, who is currently studying at Huguang New School."

"Hello." Wen Yanhui pursed her lips and greeted after hearing the words. She had hardly had any contact with girls of the same generation before. I didn't make a fool of myself.

"Hello, Miss Wen." An Yujing smiled generously, shook Wen Yanhui's hand, then turned to look at Xie Yan.

"I forgot to ask for your contact address yesterday. I went to brother Qi's clinic early today and asked him. I found out that you are the teacher of the Wen family."

"Is there any question?" Seeing An Yujing's delicate expression, Xie Yan asked.

"It's nothing, I just lament how small the world is and how wonderful the fate is." An Yujing shrugged and didn't say much.

Seeing this, Xie Yan was curious, but did not ask further, "You just said that you accompanied Mr. Wen to Wen's house, so why did you go to Brother Qi early in the morning to ask me for my contact address? Is there any relationship between the two?"

"Of course it's because Mr. Wen wants to see you." An Yujing smiled and threw a bombshell. Seeing that Xie Yan was puzzled, he continued to explain.

"I came home late yesterday. In order to tarnish my reputation, my aunt said that she was very sick and that she might infect me, so she shut me out and refused to let me in. I was too lazy to argue with her and was watched by the neighbors, so I turned to her. The head went to stay at the house of a female classmate."

"Miss An really doesn't care about her reputation." Xie Yan was speechless. Although An Yujing handled it this way, although it was convenient and satisfactory, it was equivalent to confirming the fact that she didn't go home at night among the neighbors, and I'm afraid she would be gossiped for a long time.

"Whatever, I said that I don't want to marry for the time being, and they try to help me reduce the number of people who propose marriage, so why not do it?" An Yujing smiled. Her uncle and aunt probably didn't know that her behavior was actually just right. An Yujing agreed.

"The female classmate I went to stay with was named He. Her grandfather was Mr. Wen. Mr. Wen happened to be a guest at He's house last night. When I borrowed the study room to copy the manuscript of the novel you gave me, Mr. Wen accidentally saw it. arrive."

"Mr. Wen seems to have heard of the name Hankou Qiyuan before, and he is very interested in the manuscript in my hand. I think he is a leading figure in the Hankou academic circle. We originally wanted to make Hankou Qiyuan famous. Such a good opportunity is of course I can't let it go, so I showed the manuscript to Mr. Wen."

"After Mr. Wen read the novel, he was overwhelmed. Not only did he write a short essay immediately, but he also wanted to meet you with his own eyes. That's why I went to Brother Qi early in the morning to find out your contact address." An Yujing thought of last night Mr. Wen looked excited and smiled helplessly.

Mr. Wen is very knowledgeable, tolerant and tolerant, and is deeply respected by the academic circles. However, I don’t know if it’s the reason why he has become a child again. In recent years, he has become more and more straightforward in his words and deeds.

"After he heard that you were teaching in the Wen family, he immediately had someone prepare a carriage and took me straight here. He probably will come to you after talking to Mr. Wen later. You should be mentally prepared first. Bar."

"Mr. Wen saw me... just for a novel?" Xie Yan couldn't react for a while after hearing An Yujing's explanation.

In his cognition, he just wrote a somewhat novel story. For a person like Mr. Wen who can be a TOP9 university principal in the future, it is rare enough to write a short commentary for him and praise him in the newspaper. How could it be so impatient to come to see him in person?

"I can roughly guess Mr. Wen's thoughts." An Yujing smiled, and put it off, "Anyway, you will know later."

"Since Miss An knows, why not tell me directly."

"That can't be done." An Yujing shook his head, "I'm just guessing, I have to wait for Mr. Wen to tell you the details, how can I do it for you?"

"..."

Seeing that An Yujing was determined not to speak, Xie Yan had no choice but to let go of his doubts for the time being. From the corner of his eye, he glanced at Wen Yanhui, who was staring at him with wide eyes, and suddenly his back stiffened, knowing what happened.

Sure enough, the next second, the little girl who had been standing quietly at the side finally found a chance to speak, "Mr. Xie...you, are you the one who wrote Hankou Romance?"

"..." It's over, I just finished telling the lie, and then I'm exposed.

Under An Yujing's curious eyes watching the play, Xie Yan coughed lightly on his lips twice, and explained awkwardly, "Yes, Hankou Romance was written by me."

"But just now...?" Wen Yanhui still remembered Xie Yan's foolish words.

"Just now you asked me about the book Hankou Qiyuan. If I directly said that I was the author, you would not be able to look at it objectively because I am your husband. Why don't I pretend that I don't know and let you read it for yourself. Afterwards, feel free to make your own evaluation." Xie Yan originally wanted to make an excuse, but when he said this, he became serious instead.

"There are many people and things that can influence your judgment in this world. Only by putting aside all external influences can you see your true inner thoughts."

After listening to Xie Yan's words, Wen Yanhui frowned and thought about it. So far, her life trajectory has been very simple. She has never encountered interference from Xie Yan's mouth, and there are no such important things to judge. However, Xie Yan's words are still It penetrated deeply into her heart.

"Mr. Xie, I remember."

An Yujing looked at Xie Yan making excuses for himself in a serious manner, thoughtfully, and when the two finished talking, he smiled and said, "I was wondering how to teach Miss Wen at Mr. Xie's age. Now it seems that I was preconceived, and you really have a way of being a gentleman."

"Miss An was joking, I just told Miss Wen some foreign language and practical facts."

"Can I read your book?" An Yujing smiled and turned to Wen Yanhui.

"Okay." Wen Yanhui pursed his lips and nodded, and led An Yujing to the desk.

Seeing this, Xie Yan didn't stop her, but nodded in relief. Wen Yanhui has always lacked the company of girls of the same generation in her growth. If she can become friends with a well-learned, sober and self-improving girl like An Yujing, she will definitely benefit a lot. many.

An Yujing and Wen Yanhui sat at the desk, and they saw the thick original English novel on the desk at first sight.

When she was studying in the UK before, although she had heard of the book "Little Women", she had no chance to read it. Hearing Xie Yan refer to it as a little woman, after thinking about it, she felt that the translation was appropriate and vivid, and she couldn't help it. Nod slightly.

Seeing that An Yujing and Wen Yanhui were sitting together very naturally, reading and communicating in a low voice, getting along very well, Xie Yan heaved a sigh of relief and didn't feel that he was "excessive". He took the stool handed by the maid and sat next to them On the bed, we chatted together without saying a word.

They are studying together harmoniously in the bedroom on the third floor, and Mrs. Wen's guests have also arrived in the small living room downstairs.

The Wen family controls the Chinese shipping industry in Hankou, holding several steamships and two shipping lines. All businessmen who do business on this shipping line have to negotiate business with foreign shipping companies if they don’t want to cooperate with them.

Therefore, the Wen family has a wide range of people to communicate with, and their interpersonal relationships are extremely complicated.

Over the years, Madam Wen has always been the image of a heroine among women. She is able to confront troublemakers with a gun in her hand, and she is good at socializing when she is retired. She takes care of the complicated interpersonal interests of the Wen family.

In order to get in touch with business partners and talk about things that are not easy to talk about in formal occasions, Mrs. Wen will invite some wives from other families to visit her home from time to time. Some of these wives are friends of Mrs. Wen, and some try their best to squeeze in No matter what kind, Mrs. Wen is in an absolute dominant position.

There were four wives who came today. Except for Mrs. Yu, who was a good friend of Mrs. Wen, the rest were not very familiar with Mrs. Wen. Mrs. An among them was the first time to participate in such an occasion.
