"Jewell, how about you take a look at it for me?"
The dim sunlight shone on the entrance of First Avenue. Su Xi pulled out a mirror, took out the cosmetics box, and continued to organize it. Today's meeting was over, and Jewell came directly over. He didn't plan to come.
.
But Su Xi grabbed the phone and said he would definitely arrive. Jewell had no choice but to come over. He didn't want to get close to the Huosen family at all. After all these years, he still clearly remembered that their entire family
What kind of people are they?
Memories awakened in Jie Weier's mind bit by bit. Everything about her mother's stay in the Chen family was vivid in her mind. After Su Xi finished applying her make-up, she leaned over. Just as she was about to hold Jie Weier's hand, she saw her face showing up in a daze.
Su Xi did not interrupt Jewel with a sad expression but waited quietly.
The last trace of the sun's warmth began to fade away, and the city fell into blood red, followed by darkness. Soon the light came on, and Jewel came back to his senses.
"Let's go, Jewel."
Su Xi went over and held Jewel's arm. At this time, Jewel was resisting in his heart. He really didn't want to go to Huo Sen's house. At this time, Su Xi said.
"How about we go back, Jewel?"
Jewell shook his head and continued walking. After all, Su Xi had already promised Field.
The two of them walked on First Avenue. Su Xi came here for the first time. She had only seen First Avenue on TV. It was a gathering place for the upper class in the city. As for what happened to Jewel in the past,
Su Xi didn't know because Jewell had never mentioned it.
Su Xi only read from some news reports that Jewell's mother could not bear the domestic violence and committed suicide. She was married to the Chen family from the Huosen family. She heard that Jewell's mother died when she was more than ten years old.
He left the Chen family and did not go back to the Huo Sen family.
Although Jean has talked about some things, he has not talked about everything about Jewel. Jean asked Su Xi to try to understand the unbearable past of Jewel. The insiders include Niya, Li Ang, Ai
Wei and Leona, because the four of them used to be classmates.
Su Xi plans to wait until she gets married to slowly learn about Jewell’s past. There are many people on the street, who cast doubtful glances from time to time, and some even point fingers. Su Xi is a little afraid at this moment, because the past is unknown.
Clean resume, this matter has begun to spread.
"What are you looking at? Haven't you seen it before?"
Jewell yelled angrily at several young people from the family, and they immediately lowered their heads and ran away with embarrassed smiles.
The length of First Avenue is only more than 3 kilometers, and all the families are gathered together in this area.
The two arrived at the door of the Huosen family more than ten minutes later. At this time, a large number of young people gathered, and one of the young people immediately brought the others over.
"Cousin, you are here. My name is Jed, and I am Grandpa Field's grandson."
Jewell nodded, and other nieces and nephews came over to say hello. Jewell still looked serious and just nodded. Su Xi on the side immediately thanked him happily.
Then Su Xi started chatting with these nominal nephews. She did not shrink back because of her past identity. Su Xi now is different from before. She knows who she is now.
Jean had been to Jewell's house many times before and talked with Su Xi about many things. At that time, Su Xi actually had a little inferiority complex, but after talking with Jean, Su Xi is no longer afraid of some things in the past.
Especially this city has ushered in the dawn. Su Xi has seen the reports about District 29 these days. Jewell often visited District 29 in the past. She really took care of the women there. Su Xi actually knew it.
Jewell wants to do something for District 29, but there is nothing he can do.
Jewell looked at his wife silently. He was a little touched at this time, because he felt that Su Xi had undergone tremendous changes recently. She was no longer the woman who would obey him in the past. She often gave him
Give some advice and be really considerate of yourself.
Jewell's expression became a little more relaxed. He stood beside Su Xi without saying a word, listening to Su Xi and some young men and women from the Huosen family talking. There was nothing wrong with it.
Many of the things discussed are areas that Su Xi has never been involved in in the past. She works really hard and spends most of her time at home every day studying various things.
Maybe this is life!
Jewell saw Field and the Angus couple coming towards them. He looked at the Angus couple with some surprise. He did not expect that the couple would appear at the Hotson family's banquet.
There were too many people at the entire banquet, including congressmen, businessmen, and people from other families. Jewell didn't like such an occasion very much. He just planned to say hello to Field, Jewell's nominal uncle.
"Welcome Jewell."
Field smiled and stretched out his hand, and Jewel shook it and nodded. He didn't say too much, and then listened to Field talking about some things about today's banquet. These things were of no interest to Jewel, nor did he.
Plan to find out.
At this time, not far away, Chen Qiao came over with some people from the Chen family. He looked solemn. Because of Chen Kai's incident, the entire Chen Qiao Group was now uneasy.
Chen Kai has been formally arrested and will soon face sentencing in the Law Hall. Of course, Chen Qiao is not happy about this. Chen Qiao hurried to Jewell.
"Let's go a little further and talk."
Jewell nodded. Chen Qiao had called him many times in the past few days. After all, some of Chen Qiao Group’s business matters involved prison issues in the past. Jewell had helped him many times, but now he
I only talked about money with Chen Qiao.
Ever since Chen Qiao got married, he began to change, becoming just like the previous generation of the Chen family, greedy for power, and after Jewel was unwilling to return to the Chen family, he began to become indifferent.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! During those years when Jewel was wandering, Chen Qiao would only occasionally send people over to ask if Jewel needed money. That was all, until Jewel arrived.
After Corey began to rise to prominence, at a certain banquet, the uncle and nephew spoke for the first time in more than ten years.
Originally, Jewel wanted to reminisce with Chen Qiao, but as soon as Chen Qiao opened his mouth, it was about business, and Jewel completely lost interest in family ties.
"Congratulations, Jewell."
Chen Qiao said politely. Jewel smiled and took a glass of wine from a waiter's plate. Chen Qiao also hurriedly took a glass.
"No more polite words, your grandson's matter has nothing to do with me, and I can't say anything about it."
"Hey! Jewell, can you think of a way? You and Niya are classmates, and you should have a good relationship with her. How about asking her to have dinner in private?"
Jewell said with a smile after taking a sip of wine.
"How much are you going to give?"
Chen Qiao opened his hands.
"How about five million."
Jewell smiled.
"I can help you arrange a meal, but whether you can succeed or not depends on you. At most, I can say a few nice words to you."
After Jewell finished speaking, he turned around and started walking away. At this time, Field ran over.
"Jewell can you have a drink?"
Jewell glanced at Field.
"Sorry, I have to go back to the prison after I have something to eat."
Jewell didn't want to talk to these people because he had nothing to say, so Su Xi ran over.
"Jewel, let's eat together with uncle."
"Yeah, let's eat together, oh."
In desperation, Jewell could only sit on a small round table with Field, while Su Xi went to get the food. The two looked at each other, with Field looking embarrassed and Jewell looking indifferent.
"If nothing happens, go home and visit more often. After all, this is your home."
Jewell smiled.
"No need."
Field sighed.
"Actually, we should all let go of some things. It's true that I didn't handle some things well in the past."
Seeing the displeasure on Jewell's face, Field stopped mentioning the past and talked to Jewell about some recent events. Su Xi came over with the food, put it down and said.
"Jewel, have a nice drink with your uncle, and I'll go over and eat with them."
Jewell knew what Su Xi wanted to do, but he rejected it in his heart. He often saw all the inhuman treatment he and his mother suffered at the Chen family in his dreams, but this uncle seemed to see it.
It was unusual, and my mother also went back to see Field for help, but Field agreed verbally, but in the end he let it go.
Because Field had selfish motives. At that time, his mother was very outstanding as a member of the Howson family, and such excellence made Field fearful. Jewell knew very well that he did not hesitate to help his mother, Wilsey.
The marriage to Chen Dong, the eldest son of the Chen family, was just to kick his mother out of the Huosen family so that he could monopolize power.
This kind of practice was very common in the family in the past, but Jewell no longer wants to live in the past, so there is no connection with these things in the past.
"By the way, Jewel, where are you going to hold your wedding? Do you want to hold it here at home?"
"No need."
Jewell just replied indifferently. Field sighed, and after taking a sip of wine, he looked at Jewell in a daze. He was very similar to his sister Wilsie. Over the years, Field could hardly remember what his sister looked like.
What's going on?
Field has recently found that he is becoming more and more powerless. Although he has three sons and two daughters, he is essentially no different from the young masters of the Chen family. He often gets into trouble, and he really doesn't have much motivation in the company.
Field often thinks about what he will do the day he can't do anything anymore. Although the entire Huosen family has a huge industry and a solid foundation, it is all based on the dividends of urban development. The city will soon enter an unprecedented era of monopoly.
It is being broken bit by bit. Field had a little bit of luck before, thinking that the business department would compromise like in the past.
The current affairs department is different. Ever since Le Xiao became a star in the city, people's attitude towards the service department has changed drastically.
"I'm a little worried about the future of my family."
"Why are you talking to me? It has nothing to do with me."
Field nodded.
"Let's have a drink."
Field raised his glass and drank a drink with Jewell. The two of them looked at the bustling scene without saying a word. After a while, Field spoke.
"Welsie and I grew up in this land. My younger sister was always very strong and liked to nag. To be honest, I don't like her, or I'm a little jealous of her."
Jewell smiled and stood up.
"It's almost done, I have to go."
Field nodded.
"Come back and take a look when you have time. Jewell, don't pass on some of the things of our previous generation. Many of our families are like this. Both good and bad things are passed down. Only An
The Gus family is an exception."
Jewell smiled and walked slowly.
"Is it okay for you to stay here?"
Seeing that Su Xi has chatted with many people, Jewell has to go back to prison now. Secretary Zhou Xuan has urged him many times that he must go back.
"It's okay Jewel."
Jewell nodded, Su Xi held his arm and said.
"Since the facts of the past cannot be changed, we can only accept the future, Jewell. No matter how you try to avoid these things, they will always come around."
Jewell closed his eyes, then nodded.
"Go back early later."
Seeing his wife turn and leave, Jewell felt a little helpless. As soon as he came to the door, he met Angus and his wife who were about to leave.
After hearing the reason why the couple came, Jewell was a little surprised.
"It's true, you actually stepped into this place."
"We are the same, Jewel, I didn't expect you to come."
Jewell did not explain that it was because of Su Xi's relationship that the three of them left Huosen's house and strolled on First Avenue.
Violet looked at Jewell's melancholy look and patted him on the back.
"I'm about to get married, so have a smile on my face."
Jewell smiled awkwardly.
"Ms. Violet, when we were fooling around with Niya before, I was beaten by you."
Violet sighed, and the three of them walked all the way to the door of Angus' house.
"You two, I'm leaving first."
Looking at Jewel leaving, Avano shook his head helplessly.
"He is probably the epitome of the entire family."
Violet nodded, remembering that Niya often nagged them in the past, asking them to think of ways to help Jewell, but it was a pity that they really couldn't interfere in these family affairs, and in the end, Alfa gave in in one fell swoop.
The family's transactional marriage was completely over.
"There are good things now, right?"
Violet said, although Jewell is still the same as before, today Violet found that he has changed a little bit. If it were before, Jewell would never be able to step into the Hosen house. This time
This was probably the first time he had entered the Hosen family's land in more than half a century.
