It was already time to get off work. When Huang Xiaoquan passed by my office, he shouted to me: "Xiao Chen, didn't you say there is something at home? Why don't you leave?"
Only then did I withdraw my thoughts from the window, looked at him, smiled and said, "Let's go now."
"It's raining outside, do you want me to give you a ride?" Huang Xiaoquan suddenly became very friendly.
Even if I don't plan to continue the investigation now, I won't get on their pirate ship.
I shook my head and refused with a smile: "No, thank you Mr. Huang, I'll just take a taxi."
"You're welcome. If you need my help in the future, just ask."
I nodded and smiled at him.
After Huang Xiaoquan left, Tian Lang came over and asked me curiously: "Master, why does Huang Laoxie suddenly have a good attitude towards you?"
I will definitely not tell Tian Lang about those messy things, I have to involve him too.
I chuckled and said, "Maybe my conscience has discovered it!"
"No way! I guess he must want to win over you."
"Come on! If he still wants to win over me, just let him daydream!"
Tian Lang burst out laughing, and then we left the company together.
As expected, it was raining heavily outside. No wonder it was already dark at half past five.
Tian Lang and I were on different routes. I saw him off at the bus stop and then waited for the No. 667 bus alone.
An Lan has asked me to drive her car to and from get off work several times, but I think this is not good. After all, I am just a small employee now. It is not good to start driving more than a million yuan to get off work every day.
While I was waiting for the bus, a Maybach stopped in front of me against the water on the roadside.
I was stunned for a moment when I saw the license plate number. Isn't this An Lan's mother's car?
Sure enough, the next moment the car window opened, I saw An Lan's mother, Min Nolan, sitting inside.
She sat in the back seat, looked at me expressionlessly, and said, "Get in the car."
I don't know what she means by coming to me, and she actually found her way here.
I was quite surprised, but I didn't get in the car. Instead, I stood there and asked her, "Is something wrong?"
"Let's talk in the car."
"Let's just say it! I'm afraid of dirtying your car."
"Do you want to know about An Lan? If so, just get in the car."
I hesitated for a while and finally got in the car.
Sitting in the back seat with her, the foreigner driving in front of her was the foreigner who held her umbrella yesterday.
The car is very clean and the interior is very luxurious, like a new car.
As soon as I got in the car, she said, "I've been waiting for you for a long time."
"How did you know I was here?" I asked curiously.
"Not only do I know you are here, I also know where your hometown is, including that you are divorced and that you have a mother who is over fifty at home. You have opened a company before and it went bankrupt due to some things..."
"Are you investigating me?" I suddenly felt that this woman was so scary.
But she smiled calmly and said, "You are my daughter's boyfriend, and I want to know something about your background."
"Is there a mother like you?" I obviously said this on behalf of An Lan.
"What kind of mother I am has nothing to do with you. I just want you to leave my daughter."
I sneered and said: "I knew what you wanted to say when you asked me to get in the car. I can answer you that it's impossible. There is no need to continue chatting. Just let me get off!"
He took out a bank card directly from his bag, handed it to me and said, "There are five million in it, which is enough for you to live for the rest of your life."
I stared at the bank card in her hand, froze for a moment, and then burst into laughter.
"I've seen such a plot on TV, but I didn't expect that I would actually meet it today. It's so strange."
"Take it and leave my daughter. We will never be at odds with her again."
My laughter stopped suddenly and I said coldly: "Originally I wanted to respect you, but if you want to insult me like this, don't blame me for looking down on you."
She thought I thought I had less money, so she added: "If you are still not satisfied with this, then I can help you solve your current problems. I know you have been looking for evidence to prove your innocence."
"You even know this?!"
"I said, as long as I want to know, there is nothing I don't know."
"You are so scary."
"How about it? With these five million, you have no reason to refuse, right?"
To be honest, I am really moved, but being moved doesn't mean I will accept it.
After a short silence, I sneered again and said, "Goodbye, you'd better take it back! Just let me down at the intersection ahead."
My attitude made her a little surprised. She frowned and looked at me and said, "You tell me what you want."
"I want you to let me get off the bus in front." I said in a more serious tone.
"You don't know how to appreciate someone."
"Yeah, I just don't know how to behave, please let me get off the bus!"
She was immediately annoyed and said angrily: "You brat, let me tell you, it is impossible for you to be with An Lan. You are delaying her by being with her, and there will be no results for you."
"Whether we succeed or not has nothing to do with you. An Lan doesn't recognize you anymore. Are you in charge of her affairs?"
"I am her mother, how could she deny me."
"You are her mother, so have you done what a mother should do?"
"Shut up!"
"This is not a place for you, a capitalist, to be arrogant. This is China. You'd better talk to me politely!"
At this time, the foreigner driving in front spoke something in English.
Of course I understood what he said, he was asking Min Nolan if he wanted to deal with me.
I immediately responded in English: "This is China, don't threaten me with these words, this is not your UK, please be careful what you say!"
Min Nolan then said in English to the foreigner driving: "Put him down at the intersection ahead!"
After saying that, he said to me: "Chen Feng, right? I warn you again that you'd better stay away from An Lan, otherwise I will make you regret it."
"Don't threaten me, it's useless."
At the intersection ahead, she put me down.
I know I have offended her, but it doesn't matter anymore. I'm really not afraid of what she will do to me. It's just a shameful life anyway.
On the way back, I thought a lot. I didn't plan to tell An Lan that Min Nolan was looking for me.
I will not separate from An Lan because of Min Nolan's threat. No matter what happens, I will never abandon her.
After I got home, I found that An Lan hadn't come back yet. She usually gets home before me. Maybe she was busy today.
So I went to cook and worked for an hour, but An Lan still hadn't come back.
I didn't know if she was busy, so I sent her a WeChat message and asked her, "How long do you have until you come back? I've already prepared the meal."
After waiting for more than ten minutes, she didn't reply to me.
Are you having a meeting?
The sky outside the window has turned completely dark, and the rain is still falling. The neon lights of the city look particularly gorgeous under the reflection of the rain.
I like listening to the sound of rain very much. That feeling makes me feel peaceful and relaxes my whole body.
After waiting for almost half an hour, it was already seven o'clock in the evening, but An Lan hadn't come back yet. Normally, he would have been back long ago.
I started to get a little worried, so I called her.
