This "Dad" call made my heart almost melt, so that I was stunned for a long time before I responded: "Hey, is it Xiaoman?"
"Yes, dad." Xiaoman must have just learned to speak, and his voice was very childish.
I don't know why, but my nose instantly became sore and tears filled my eyes.
Then An Lan's voice came over: "Chen Feng, we have got off the plane and are now ready to go home."
Oh sniffed, controlled his excitement, and asked, "Did you come back with Xiao Man?"
"Well, have the foreign businessmen come to visit today?"
"Here, wait until I come to tell you face to face. I will pick you up at the airport right away."
"There's no rush. You need to receive the foreign businessmen first. I'll just take Xiaoman and take a taxi back."
"What's the point? I have nothing to do here. I asked Gao Sheng to wait for me! I'll be here soon."
After hanging up the phone, I couldn't control my inner joy, so I gave Gao Sheng an explanation and asked him to receive the foreign businessmen for me and have a meal at noon.
Let Li Sheng follow along, after all, he is the core figure, and he can speak so many languages.
Although I should go to such occasions, the most important thing to me right now is my family.
I didn't stop for a moment and drove to the airport in a hurry.
I even spoke to An Lan once on the way to the airport and told her that I was already on my way here.
When I arrived at the airport, I called An Lan again, asked where she was, and then drove to Area B of the parking lot where she was.
When I arrived at Area B of the parking lot, I saw An Lan and Xiao Man in her arms at a glance, even though we were far apart.
She is such a hot mom that you can't even tell that she is a mother.
She wore a white shirt with transparent lace on the collar, cuffs and shoulders, a light green long skirt, and small white high heels.
Just from her outfit and appearance, you can feel that she is ladylike and has an elegant temperament.
The little baby in her arms was so cute that when others took a look, they thought they were two sisters.
I drove the car in front of them and stopped, then opened the car door and welcomed them out.
An Lan and I looked at each other and smiled, and she said to the child in her arms: "Xiaoman, look, this is daddy."
Xiaoman turned to look at me, but he didn't call me dad like he did on the phone just now. He even looked a little afraid of me.
I walked up to An Lan with a smile on my face, stretched out my hands and said to Xiao Man, "Xiao Man, come and give me a hug."
Xiaoman, however, held An Lan's shoulders tightly and turned his head away.
An Lan said: "Xiao Man, this is dad. Haven't you always wanted to see dad? Now that you have seen him, why are you still shy?"
Xiaoman still didn't speak and still glanced to the other side, which made me really embarrassed.
That's right, we saw her when she was born and haven't seen her since.
Maybe An Lan had shown her my photos, but this sudden meeting would frighten the child to some extent.
I don’t care either, since there are still many days to come.
I first loaded An Lan's luggage into the car, and then opened the rear door for her.
After she got into the car with Xiaoman in her arms, I returned to the cab and drove home.
After the car drove out of the airport, An Lan asked me: "How are the foreign businessmen doing? Are everything okay?"
"It's pretty good, and quite unexpected."
"What's wrong?"
So I told everything that happened to me in the past two days, including the sudden surprise that Li Sheng brought me today.
When An Lan found out, she felt incredible. She asked me, "Where does this Li Sheng come from?"
"I don't know, but in my opinion he must not be simple. Taking the several languages he knows as an example, I conclude that he is not an ordinary person."
"If ordinary people can't design works that are recognized by foreign companies," An Lan continued.
"So I have found the right person, and now that foreign businessmen have strongly recognized it, I think this matter is almost certain."
An Lan nodded, then sighed softly, and said to me: "I just got off the plane and received news from YM Group, saying that three hours ago, Entu Trading announced that all goods would be reduced in price by 100%.
Ten of them are exported to Europe, and YM Group has already begun to recruit distributors."
I wasn't surprised at all when I heard the news. I was even quite calm. I smiled and said, "The war started so soon."
"Yes! What does Wang Yi want to do? It's not good for them to do this!"
I didn't think so much, and instead said to An Lan: "It doesn't matter so much, let's go home now. If she insists on fighting, I can only accompany her to the end."
An Lan asked me again: "Can you contact her?"
"Yes, what's wrong?"
"I want to meet with her. I think there is still hope for peace talks on this matter. I don't want a situation where both sides will lose."
"Okay, when?" Because I hope so too, I agree with An Lan's decision.
An Lan thought for a moment and asked me: "Did Lu Lu say when the contract will be signed?"
"not yet."
"Then let's contact her now."
"Now?"
"Well, the sooner the better, otherwise once we sign the contract with Lupi, it will really mean the beginning of war."
What An Lan said made sense. After a moment of silence, I said to her: "Go home now. I'll contact Wang Yi after you settle down."
"Um."
After An Lan fell silent, I said to An Lan again: "By the way, I have divorced Zhou Mo."
An Lan, who was teasing Xiaoman, suddenly looked up at me and asked, "When?"
"After you went to London, Zhou Mo came to Chengdu and went to divorce me."
An Lan said lightly "Oh" and continued to play with Xiao Man.
After returning to the residence, An Lan held Xiaoman in his arms while I dragged the suitcase behind.
An Lan said to Xiao Man: "Xiao Man, look, this is our home, isn't it beautiful?"
Xiaoman is still young, maybe she doesn't know what beauty is. Her little head keeps looking around, as if she is curious about everything here.
After entering the house, An Lan said to me: "Please contact Wang Yi."
"Where's Xiao Man? You can't take Xiao Man with you to see Wang Yi, right?"
"Why not?"
I didn't say anything more, so I took out my cell phone and walked out, found the cell phone number that Wang Yi had contacted me before, and dialed her.
The call was quickly answered, and I said to her: "Wang Yi, are you still in Chengdu?"
"Here, what? Have you figured it out?"
"An Lan wants to meet you." I said without any nonsense.
There was silence on the other end of the phone. After a while, Wang Yicai said, "Why should I see her?"
"She has something to discuss with you."
Wang Yi suddenly laughed and said: "I see, you must have known about my announcement of price reduction, right? What, are you anxious?"
"You just say whether you see me or not?"
"See, why not? Let her come to me. It's at my house. You know where I live. You've been here before."
I responded twice and said nothing more. After ending the call, I told An Lan that Wang Yi agreed to meet.
An Lan seemed to be in a hurry, so he turned to me and said, "Then go now, don't wait any longer."
"You just came back and you haven't even sat down to rest. There's no need to be in such a hurry, right?"
An Lan said to me very seriously: "Chen Feng, you should understand that this matter is not trivial. If it is clear that a war will start, the losers will definitely be us and Wang Yi, and the winner in the end will definitely be YM Group. YM is waiting there."
There is no point in us fighting among ourselves here just to watch the show."
"Of course I know, and I also told Wang Yi the result, but she didn't listen to anything."
An Lan took a long breath and said, "Let me go and talk to her. Maybe there will be a glimmer of hope."
