A few days later is Li Chunyan's birthday.It was rare for Quan Jingming to get off work early once. The three of them took Chu He and went outside to have a delicious meal of noodles with fried sauce.

Previously, Shen Haiyao hoarded a lot of props, all of which were useless gadgets, but today they came in handy.While going to the bathroom, he threw a small thing into the open space outside.

A few minutes later, bursts of cheers came from the people in the Zhajiang Noodle Restaurant.

I don't know where the fireworks were set off outside.

The fireworks are small, but very bright, and clusters rise up and explode in the air, embellishing the dark night sky into colorful drawing boards.

Shen Haiyao went out, just in time to hear Chu He say: "That's great! Look, Auntie, someone is celebrating your birthday for you!"

Chu He has always been sweet-mouthed, and he is the best at saying nice things to please people, so he easily coaxed Li Chunyan into a smile.

On the way home, the two of them were talking and laughing in front, while Shen Haiyao and Quan Jingming followed a short distance behind and remained silent together.

Shen Haiyao could probably guess what he was thinking: such a good day, such a harmonious family, if nothing happened to Quan Chi, it would be even better.

The longer he spends with this couple, the more Shen Haiyao can't understand, how can these two people have such a docile personality that they are so gentle, how could they raise a son with such a character as Quan Chi?

But thinking about it, Shen Haiyao can still understand their complicated feelings for Quan Chi, even if Quan Chi did all kinds of hurtful things, he is also someone who has lived with them, and their 20-year relationship is by no means weaker than a blood relationship.

Shen Haiyao lowered his voice and took the initiative to bring up this topic: "The matter of Quan Chi..."

Who knows that before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Quan Jingming: "Today is a good day, let's not mention him."

Shen Haiyao looked at him in surprise.

"He did something wrong and should be punished." Quan Jingming was silent for a while, and then said, "Actually, Chunyan and I have discussed his matter several times on and off during this time. I'm ashamed to say, this kid Quan Chi, We didn't obey him when we were young, we both spoiled him too much, that's why we let him grow up like this... Maybe it's a good thing that someone can take care of him in the future."

Quan Jingming stopped.He is not tall, and his back is slightly bent, and now he even has to look up at his own son.He said slowly: "Zhen Zhen, the relationship between our two families is too complicated. Chunyan and I have been worried that you will have a bad and happy life in our house. We can't teach Quan Chi well, and we are not good parents. , Maybe there are really too many negligence. Zhen Zhen, if you think we have done something wrong, please tell us... Neither of us has much ability, maybe we can't give you too much, but we really hope you Have a good time in the future."

A middle-aged man who is nearly fifty years old, at this moment, is like a primary school student who has been reprimanded by his teacher for doing something wrong.

Shen Haiyao wanted to say something, but before he opened his mouth, he heard Chu He shouting in front of him: "What are you doing, why are you walking so slowly!"

Shen Haiyao responded with a loud voice: "Here we come."

He lowered his voice and said hastily: "There is no such thing."

He has been reluctant to speak and do things with Zhen Zhen's tone or attitude, but at this moment he tried his best to adapt to Zhen Zhen's identity, so as to make his words seem more sincere.

He said: "The few months I have been back here are probably the happiest and happiest period of my life so far."

After returning home, Li Chunyan remembered one thing.

"Old Quan, why is your salary this month 200 yuan more than last month?"

Quan Jingming explained: "Our box lunch has changed to a different supplier, which is cheaper."

"Why did you change to another one? Isn't the food at the previous one pretty good?" Shen Haiyao asked calmly.

"Didn't there be an accident at the construction site before? It didn't take long before someone came to check. There were several groups of people back and forth. We couldn't tell where they were from. We could only answer what people asked." Quan Jingming said honestly, "Some people responded that the price of the boxed lunch every day is too expensive, and the amount of food is too small, not enough to eat. It didn't take long for them to change."

Shen Haiyao smiled and didn't ask any more questions.

The turmoil about the Quanchi incident still hasn't subsided.

Although Zhen Zeyu came out to apologize for his son at the first time, and did not ask his relationship to intervene in the handling of the case, the Zhen family was still affected in real terms. The stock price that had been falling all the way before showed no signs of recovery, and the ongoing business negotiations also There is no room for them to step in.

The hazards of drunk driving and hit-and-runs have been repeatedly reported on TV and the Internet. Quan Chi has become a bad artist, and there is no possibility of his comeback.

But this is far from the end of things.

Shen Haiyao broke down some materials into pieces, divided them into several documents, and sent them to multiple self-media accounts in different chronological order.

The first to be revealed was the middle-aged couple who kept crying during the meeting. The man's surname was Quan.The boy next to him, whose appearance and voice surpassed Quan Chi's, was surnamed Zhen.

The people who eat melons are simply boiling, and the misunderstandings that only appear in novels and movies actually happened in reality.

-Oh, I see, so the poor nobleman was not a speculation at the beginning, and Quan Chi was really poor.

-... I can't understand, if you are poor, you are poor, why do you have to rely on your son?Aren't the migrant workers more popular recently?

- I just look down on the poor from the bottom of my heart, what can't be understood.

- looked down upon +1.Take a closer look at the meeting, the couple cried so sadly, Quan Chi's expression was very stinky, with that expression of tsk tsk tsk, wishing to eat them both.

- Watched this video [Video] again, Quan Chi's expression... can't be explained in words, he probably hates his adoptive parents.

- What did the old man do wrong?Is it wrong to be rich without the Zhen family? !

Sharp-eyed people quickly spotted Quan Jingming in another video.

-Hey, take a look at this video, does the person in this corner look like Quan Chi's adoptive father?

- Sharp eyes, it really is.If I remember correctly, is this the news about the accident at the construction site?

-I know I know!My mother almost bought them when they opened, but the work was suspended for a while because of an accident. We didn't buy OTL because we were worried that it would be unfinished.

- This real estate is interesting... I searched casually and found another interesting news [link] Some time ago, their family was warned because of the unreasonable bidding process, and then the winning bidder, their food supplier, was arrested The monopoly was interviewed. The key is that the quality of this supplier is still a bit problematic. Someone bought their cooked food and found it was rotten.

-emmmm You may not believe it, you can see what the last name of this food company is [link]

-...Your rich second generation circle is really small, really small.

Netizens followed the clues all the way, from the son of Zhen's family who was suspected of being picked up wrongly, all the way to Wu Man's family's food company, which was found to be unqualified many times, but still managed to do well in the local area.

I don't know if it was influenced by Quan Chi. In the past few months, Wu Man's family has also found several traffic stars to endorse.These fans flocked to various star studios, demanding to terminate the contract.

These traffic stars have had a rough time recently.After Quan Chi's accident, all the star studios have been introspecting all night whether their own stars have cooperated with Quan Chi and whether they will be implicated.After this incident happened, they would rather lose money than terminate the contract with Wu Man's food company immediately.

In the end, Wu Man's family was required to pay tens of millions of fines because of unfair competition.

Food companies like them often have very tight cash flow, a lot of funds are taken up by downstream companies, and there are many payables.Coupled with previous warnings and food safety issues, the supply of downstream customers has decreased, and funds cannot be turned over at all.

They had no choice but to bite the bullet and go to the Zhen family for help.

But how could the Zhen family care about them?Zhen Zeyu couldn't protect himself.

I don't know who got out the matter of helping the Wu family and the leaders of the district to get a few high-quality bids for the Wu family. Zhen Zeyu has to deal with the people of the Disciplinary Committee every day, and he is exhausted after a few days.

He had no time to find out who leaked the news, so he could only push the matter to the Wu family.He has no manners, standing outside his villa and yelling at Wu Man.

Wu Man felt aggrieved, but she didn't dare to show it in front of Zhen Zeyu, so she could only explain in a low voice and beg Zhen Zeyu's forgiveness.

It's a pity that when Zhen Zeyu was angry, he never regarded others as human beings. After venting, he waved to call the security guards and asked them to throw Wu Man out.

Their hands were rude, they hurt Wu Man while pushing, and they didn't know whether it was intentional or not, they put their hands on sensitive parts—or in other words, the Zhen family from top to bottom, from the master to the servants, is very good at watching people order food Die, Wu Man was the young master's fiancé in the past, and when he saw him, he would respectfully call him Young Master Wu, but now that he is down and out, anyone can do it.

Wu Man was out of breath, and immediately slapped one of them, and scolded sharply: "What are you?! A dog's eyes look down on people!"

This group of security guards are not reasonable people, since Wu Man made a move first, they have no intention of restraining themselves.The person who was slapped didn't hesitate for a second, and immediately kicked back.

Wu Man was kicked to the ground, he clutched his lower abdomen in pain, moaned and groaned a few times, he couldn't believe it.

"You dare to hit me?!"

The security guard said disdainfully: "Why don't you dare? Who do you think you are. You also said that our dogs look down on people, so you are still a dog raised by the Zhen family?"

As they talked, they laughed again, "Hey, that's not true. At least a dog knows how to recognize an owner. You are not as good as a dog..."

They didn't know what they thought of, and they all let out extremely obscene laughter.

The one-sided beating in the small garden continued.Not long after, the door of the villa was slowly closed, and the sounds of fists and Wu Man's painful cries were blocked from the door.

In the evening, raindrops floated in the sky.

Wu Man didn't know how long he had been in a coma, and when he opened his eyes again, he had been thrown out of Zhen's villa, lying alone on the roadside in the suburbs.

His whole body was in pain like being run over by a wheel, and every joint was painful.He couldn't open his eyes, his vision was blood red.

Struggling to sit up from the ground, he took out his mobile phone and wanted to call the driver at home to pick it up, but he saw on the screen that his mother had called him half an hour ago.

He dialed back, and felt his throat hurt unbearably as soon as he uttered a word after the call was connected.

But the mother on the other side of the phone didn't ask any more questions about his hoarse voice, but said hastily, "Manman, your father has decided to sell the company..."

Wu Man suddenly felt angry, and he said angrily to the phone: "Sell as soon as you sell, what are you telling me?! Haven't I done enough for you and this family?!"

The rain was getting heavier.

It was only seven o'clock, and the sky was already dark like midnight.

Wu Man's whole body was drenched. The Zhen family's villa is far away from the urban area. Although the environment is quiet, the location is a bit remote.In this kind of weather, he couldn't get a taxi at all, and he really didn't have the strength to drive by himself.

The constant pain all over his body made him feel dizzy, and his thoughts seemed to be out of touch with his body.

When did things start and become what they are now...

Oh, by the way, it's because of Zhen Zhen, because Zhen Zhen is not the real son of the Zhen family.

Then, who is Zhen Zhen...

Zhen Zhen is one year older than him, and they are classmates in junior high school.At that time, all the classmates in the class liked him and wanted to curry favor with him.But Zhen Zhen has no airs at all, he is happy when anyone asks him for help, and he is never stingy in helping others.

After entering high school, they were admitted to two schools. Fortunately, the schools are not far away, and they still meet occasionally on the way to and from school.

It was also a rainy day like this one time, Wu Man didn't bring an umbrella, and lost his temper because his family's driver was stuck on the road.Later, it was Zhen Zhen who accompanied him home with an umbrella.

After Zhen Zhen left that night, Wu Man realized that the umbrella was really small, so small that it could only take care of one person.Zhen Zhen's shoulders and schoolbag were wet.

Wu Man felt that he might be hallucinating from the pain, otherwise, why would he see Zhen Zhen really walking over from a distance.

He propped his palms on the ground, trying to hide his embarrassment a little bit.The ground under his palms was so dirty, the dirt mixed with the rain turned into mud, making him sticky.

He wiped his hands off his body, gasping for air as the wound was smeared with dirty water.

He saw Zhen Zhen said with a little dissatisfaction: "You open the umbrella like this, the cat is wet!"

Only then did he see that Zhen Zhen was holding a little white cat in his arms, and there was a man beside him.

The man immediately adjusted the position of the umbrella.

"..." Zhen Zhen seemed to sigh, and he said very speechlessly, "I got wet when you opened the umbrella like this!"

"Oh." The man adjusted the direction of the umbrella again.

Zhen Zhen was finally satisfied now, "Well, that's fine."

"..." The man lowered his head and complained softly, "But this way... I'm going to get wet."

Zhen Zhen immediately said, "Then who do you blame? Isn't it because you bought such a small umbrella?"

The man laughed and leaned towards Zhen Zhen, "Then if we get closer, no one will get wet!"

They passed Wu Man noisily like this, and continued to walk forward.

Wu Man was stunned, watching them disappear from sight, then lowered his head, reached out and wiped off the cold liquid on his face.

The rain stopped.
