Global Wasteland: My Evolutionary Path
Chapter 26 Nothing is easy in the world
Li Chunfeng was smoking silently at the side door of Wenxiang Building. When he saw Chu Huan walking over, he stepped forward and grabbed Chu Huan's collar, pulling Chu Huan towards the car nearby.
"Brother Feng, brother, I'll buy you a drink." Chu Huan was grabbed by Li Chunfeng, but she didn't dare to resist, for fear of angering him again.
When the waiters at the door saw Li Chunfeng treating Chu Huan like this, they wanted to surround him, but Chu Huan waved his hand to stop him.
Although the guys wouldn't do anything to Li Chunfeng, if they really came to help Chu Huan, Li Chunfeng's face would look ugly and he would inevitably get angry and deal with Chu Huan again.
Besides, they all knew that Chu Huan and Li Xun had a good relationship, so nothing would happen, so they allowed Li Chunfeng to grab Chu Huan and leave.
"Where did you go!" Li Chunfeng glared at Chu Huan. Yong'an's communication network still has not been restored. As for when it will normalize, Li Chunfeng doesn't know.
He waited in front of Wenxiang Building for almost twenty minutes, something that could be settled with just one phone call.
There were important guests in the Li Mansion tonight. Li Qianfan asked Li Chunfeng to call Chu Huan to the banquet, but he was rejected when he came to Wenxiang Building.
He wanted to see Mei Xiaoyu, but the waiter at the door said that Sister Mei would not see any visitors today.
When I asked Chu Huan, the guy asked me where to find it when the Cailian River was so big.
In fact, the waiters knew that Chu Huan had been away for a long time, but last time Li Chunfeng came to see someone in an aggressive manner and had a quarrel with Sister Mei. Chan'er specifically told the waiters at the door that they would not know how to respond to Li Chunfeng's questions in the future.
Li Chunfeng, who was angry at the door, didn't know that he had been blocked by Wenxianglou. When Chu Huan came back, he finally found someone to vent his anger on.
Li Chunfeng opened the car door, and Chu Huan quickly got in without waiting for his hand to exert force.
After Li Chunfeng drove away, Chu Huan straightened his clothes.
Cailian River is at least fifteen minutes' drive from Li's Mansion. Along the way, Chu Huan looked at the flow of people outside and swallowed his stomach several times when he wanted to speak.
"Are you smoking?" Li Chunfeng asked through the rearview mirror, seeing Chu Huan hesitate to speak and still having a cigarette in his mouth.
"Thank you, no." Chu Huan really didn't know how. Seeing that Li Chunfeng was finally willing to talk to him, Chu Huan asked: "Brother Feng, what happened?"
Li Chunfeng was silent.
His teeth gritted loudly.
After a while, I heard him say slowly: "Something happened to Xiao Xun."
Chu Huan was stunned, and then his face turned pale.
He opened his mouth several times, but in the end nothing came out.
…
Li Mansion.
Before the founding of the Pei Kingdom, the Li family was already a well-established family in Yong'an. In the previous dynasty, officials and officials were promoted to scholar-bureaucrats. It was also true that when the first generation of saints in the Pei Kingdom raised an army to revolt, the head of the Li family at that time did not respond.
Because of such hesitation, the Li family missed the opportunity to gain honors and titles after the founding of the People's Republic of China. As time went by, the original power of the family slowly became the clan family it is now.
Sometimes a group of people conquer the world, and another group of people dominate the world.
Fortunately, the successive heads of the Li family were diligent enough to save the Nuo Da property.
Because of the blood heritage that has lasted for more than five hundred years, although the Li family is now in some decline, so many years of marriage, business, and political participation have long been like a net, tightly wrapping the Li family.
Just like the current princess, if she really wants to get married, Li Qianfan can find relatives through various twists and turns in the genealogy.
It's just that he can't afford to lose this person, and he's not a direct blood relative, or even a collateral blood relative, so what if...he's related to him?
Face is sometimes the most worthless thing.
Li Qianfan's bloodline is considered orthodox, and there are too many other lineages that have spread out. Although they are all recorded in the family tree, some of them have not been contacted in the past three generations.
This is why wealth in the mountains has distant relatives. The Li family is considered a prominent family in Yong'an. After leaving Yong'an, although it has a little influence in Pei State, it is not very big.
A skinny camel is still bigger than a horse. The clan has a clan heritage, unlike Huang Tianyou of Huangtian Technology, who just made his way out by being in the limelight, but in the end, he became a wedding dress for others in a short period of time.
At this moment, the Li Mansion was brightly lit, and there were strong men in strong clothes inside and outside the courtyard. Their waists were bulging, and they had hidden firearms at first sight, and they were patrolling back and forth.
Li Qianfan is eating.
There were two people, an old man and a young man, accompanying him on his left and right.
The man wearing glasses and a suit is none other than Zhao Longfei, the prime minister's chief adviser who just arrived in Yong'an today.
It can be regarded as an accident. The Li family has been a family of philanthropists since ancient times. They have been doing things such as giving out red envelopes to citizens during the Chinese New Year, opening warehouses to release grain in years of famine, and helping orphans and widowed mothers.
Zhao Longfei is also an orphan and was raised by Li Qianfan since he was a child. Unlike the relationship between Mei Xiaoyu and Chu Huan, Li Qianfan has always raised Zhao Longfei as his adopted son.
Especially now, when Zhao Longfei became the prime minister's chief adviser last year and has a bright future ahead of him, Li Qianfan treats him even more differently.
The other old man with silver hair is Li Qianfan's brother, Li Baige.
Their father named the two of them, which means that thousands of sails are competing against each other and hundreds of teams are vying for success.
This meal is considered a family banquet, and we can make decisions about some things at home.
"Yifu, I think it would be better for Xiaoxun to follow me to Lingyun. The medical technology there is advanced, and... I can take good care of her."
"Girls will always get married when they grow up." Li Baige on the side seemed to have different opinions.
Li Qianfan remained silent and did not speak.
The Li family has only one son and one daughter when it comes to Li Qianfan's generation. Li Chunfeng's wedding is about to take place. The woman is from a well-known family, and Li Xun's future has been planned by Li Qianfan.
In order to bring the Li family to a higher level, Li Qianfan intended to make friends with the royal family not long after Li Xun was born. Now nearly twenty years have passed, and the seeds he planted are about to bloom, but things happen to the Li family one after another.
It was because the accident happened to Li Xun that Li Qianfan felt that he was wrong. He had always been good at calculations, but had he ever asked Xun'er what he thought? But if he missed this opportunity, how would he have the face to face his ancestors after his death?
Lie Zong?
Face is sometimes the most valuable thing.
"Marquis..." Zhao Longfei said with a bitter smile: "Father, once you enter the Marquis's gate, you will feel as deep as the sea."
There are now four dukes and eight marquises in Pei State. Although Li Xun is not marrying the eldest son of a marquis, but only the second son of a marquis, he will still be canonized as an earl in the future, and Li Xun will become the countess.
This is such an important step for the Li family!
"Don't forget the original choice of our ancestors. Just one step too late allowed us to stay in Yong'an for five hundred years." Li Baige continued.
After hearing this, Zhao Longfei picked up the wine glass and took a sip silently - his adoptive father knew that he had always liked Li Xun, and now that he had become the prime minister's chief adviser, did he have to become the prime minister before he would let Xun'er marry?
?
Becoming prime minister... He will be turning 30 this year and will have at least another twenty years before he has the chance.
He was unwilling to do so.
Bitter wine enters the throat, and the heart becomes even more bitter.
He looked at the three empty seats at the dining table and showed no interest in the food on the table in front of him.
The table is filled with delicacies from the mountains and seas, including shrimps with jade belt, red grilled shark's fin, mandarin fish, red ribs, seven-star turtle soup and so on.
There is also the white wine that Zhao Longfei just drank - Huanbo wine, which is rare in the entire Pei Kingdom.
"Let me think about it again." Li Qianfan glanced at Li Baige.
"The virus in Xun'er is only suppressed now... If we don't think of a solution quickly..." Zhao Longfei was talking when he heard footsteps and stopped talking.
The visitors were none other than Li Chunfeng and Chu Huan.
Looking at the young Chu Huan and the now independent Li Chunfeng, Li Qianfan sighed secretly.
If only... I was ten years younger.
Only after thousands of sails have passed can we realize that being in charge of the family is not easy.
Only when my black hair turns white will I realize that time is not forgiving.
