When Ye Chen heard this, he no longer knew what to say.
It sounds like Chen Zhaozhong has paid so much for love, but in the end it was all in vain.
It can even be said that he lost his wife and lost his troops.
Moreover, he was already an elite among the elite in Hong Kong Island, and even made his father visit the thatched cottage three times for him. It can be said that his original life had unlimited prospects.
However, in the end, he not only gave up everything he originally owned, but also offended a big boss he couldn't afford to offend. As a result, he is still unable to return to Hong Kong Island and live in the United States with a reasonable and legal status.
One of the top elites in society could only end up living in a dilapidated Chinatown for more than 20 years like many Chinese who smuggled themselves to the United States and chose to work illegally in Chinatown...
It is not an exaggeration to say that his whole life has been ruined by his decision.
Thinking of this, Ye Chen couldn't help but ask him: "Uncle Zhong, have you ever regretted these things?"
Chen Zhaozhong shook his head and smiled lightly: "There is nothing to regret. Everyone is responsible for their own decisions. I really hoped to go to the end with her, but I was blinded by love at that time and couldn't
Analyze the feasibility of this matter objectively and in-depth from multiple angles.”
As he spoke, he said with a smile: "People say that it is difficult for a hero to be a beauty. What's more, I was not a hero at all at that time, and I was young and frivolous. I always felt that the most important thing was that two people are in love, but I didn't understand that a person can be different at different times.
,at different positions, completely different decisions will be made..."
"Some women, after being a caged bird for a long time, will develop a yearning for nature deep in their hearts. They feel that they would be perfect if they could plunge headlong into nature;"
"But most of them don't really yearn for nature. Instead, they eat too much and live too comfortably. They really let them fly into nature and withstand wind, rain, sun and rain.
With winter snow, frost, and hungry stomachs, most of them will begin to miss their former cages;"
"At this time, the cage is no longer a prison in her eyes, but a palace that makes people look up to."
Having said this, Chen Zhaozhong slammed the table, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Unlike her, I really yearn for nature, so it is normal for us to part ways."
After smiling bitterly for a moment, Chen Zhaozhong picked up the wine glass, took a sip, waved his hand, and said with a smile: "But love requires such reckless and desperate courage to have a soul. If everything counts forward,
Step by step, count ten steps forward, and finally weigh the most advantageous option, which is not love, but business. I still hope that things like love can be as simple as possible."
When Ye Chen heard this, he admired Chen Zhaozhong's open-mindedness a little more.
Then, he asked: "Have you ever thought about returning to Hong Kong Island?"
Chen Zhaozhong smiled and said: "I thought about it, but Liu wouldn't let me go back. He never gave up on killing me. Even after the two of them got married, the hidden money that paid for my life was still there. Some people even planned to come to the United States at that time.
Looking for my whereabouts, after that, Mr. Gu went to Hong Kong Island to talk to him for me. He meant that I had become the only pillar of shame in his life, and he could give Mr. Gu a face.
, I will no longer hunt me, but I must also be aware of myself and never return to Hong Kong Island again in this life."
Ye Chen couldn't help frowning and said coldly: "This is a bit unplayable for someone named Liu!"
Chen Zhaozhong smiled and said: "It's understandable. After all, my behavior made him lose face in Hong Kong Island. For rich people, face is often more important than anything else."
Ye Chen nodded slightly. He wanted to tell Chen Zhaozhong that if Chen Zhaozhong wanted to go back, he would definitely help him get rid of the rich man named Liu.
Ye Chen even wanted to tell Chen Zhaozhong that if he was willing to cooperate with him in the future and help him, he would definitely make his life difficult and counterattack.
However, after Ye Chen thought about it for a moment, he felt that today was the first time he met Chen Zhaozhong. If he took the initiative to say this, it would be too purposeful.
Moreover, I also lack understanding of Chen Zhaozhong, so I might as well get familiar with him first and then take a closer look.
At this time, Chen Zhaozhong took the initiative to fill up the wine for himself and Ye Chen, and said with a smile: "Master Ye, don't just talk about me, why not talk about you. Many people have been thinking about your safety for so many years since you have been missing.
, including me, it’s just that I’ve been too busy taking care of myself and have not been able to look for you everywhere like Mr. Gu..."
Ye Chen smiled gratefully, and then told Chen Zhaozhong about his general experiences over the years.
When Chen Zhaozhong learned that Ye Chen was now the head of the Ye family, he was beyond excited and praised repeatedly: "Master Ye, you can become the head of the Ye family. I believe that Master Chang Ying will be very happy in heaven!"
Ye Chen nodded lightly, but couldn't help but sigh: "In my opinion, only by letting the Ye family stand on top of the world can we truly comfort my father's spirit in heaven."
After hearing this, Chen Zhaozhong looked horrified.
He really didn't expect that Ye Chen would have such an ambition.
However, he also knows very well that it is not difficult to have lofty ambitions, but it is as difficult as climbing to the sky to turn lofty ambitions into reality.
He wasn't sure how much Ye Chen looked like Ye Changying.
When he recalled Ye Changying's kindness to him, at a certain moment, he had the idea of doing something for Ye Chen.
However, he and Ye Chen had the same idea. It was not advisable to have a close friendship when they first met. After all, he did not know Ye Chen well, and Ye Chen might not think highly of him.
As a result, the two of them had a tacit understanding and the conversation became more and more relaxed. Soon, they were talking about Ye Chen's trip to New York.
Chen Zhaozhong asked Ye Chen: "When Master Ye comes to the United States this time, he must have made a special trip to support Miss Gu's concert, right?"
Ye Chen smiled and said, "Actually, I came to the United States with my wife to further my studies. We happened to be in Providence. I came here today to accompany my daughter to a charity dinner."
"So that's it." Chen Zhaozhong nodded and said with some confusion: "A charity dinner that can invite Miss Gu to participate must be very influential, but I don't seem to have heard of any important charity dinners recently...
…”
Gu Qiuyi said casually: "It seems to be organized by the Chinese Chamber of Commerce and the young master of the Fei family. The purpose is to donate money to Chinese orphans in Europe and the United States."
Chen Zhaozhong frowned slightly, and suddenly tasted something different.
Although he is just a small owner of a roast goose shop, because he studied finance and worked in investment, financing and business management, what he is best at is information collection and analysis.
Based on this habit that he has maintained for many years, he pays great attention to the valuable information around him. As long as it is useful content, no matter what it is, he will note it in his mind and analyze it habitually.
Therefore, he basically knows all the major events that have happened in New York over the years.
It is precisely because of this habit that he has seen and analyzed many things more, and he has also summarized his own set of rules.
The first is charity activities. In the city of New York, there are almost no people who do charity in a low-key manner.
Therefore, as long as someone wants to do charity, they will definitely try every means to publicize and build momentum to make this charity dinner known to everyone.
And a charity dinner that could attract Gu Qiuyi was so low-key that there was no news at all. This is a bit abnormal.
Secondly, events such as charity dinners are themselves a very ostentatious and high-profile form of expression.
To put it bluntly, a charity dinner is a group of people who could have just used their money to do good deeds in a low-key manner, but they have to get together and have a spectacular banquet. They even invite the media to live broadcast the whole process, and then do it in a high-profile way.
The purpose of spending money is nothing more than to gain as much attention as possible.
Therefore, it was obviously a charity dinner, but it was deliberately kept low-key. In Chen Zhaozhong's eyes, it was like a couple who said they wanted to get married quietly, but couldn't help but set off firecrackers to celebrate. It was a bit weird.
.
So, he asked Ye Chen: "Master Ye, are you also the guest invited to this charity dinner?"
Ye Chen shook his head and said: "I'm not, I was called by my daughter to accompany her."
Gu Qiuyi smiled and said: "Uncle Zhong, I flirted with brother Ye Chen for a long time before he agreed to come and accompany me."
Chen Zhaozhong felt even more strange. He thought for a moment and said, "Miss Gu, I don't know about this charity dinner, so why don't you take me to see the world?"
