Rising Step by Step - 252

Seeing Lu An staring at her with wide eyes, Fang Yingyi smiled and walked to Lu An's side, saying with a smile, "Director Lu, I've heard so much about you. I'm Fang Yingyi."
Fang Yingyi proactively extended her fair little hand, and Lu An quickly shook it. The soft, boneless little hand in his grasp made Lu An's heart flutter slightly. Afraid of losing his composure in front of others, he quickly let go after shaking her hand.
Lu An originally thought that Yang Dingguo had called him to the hotel for dinner because he had something to tell him. During the casual conversation at the dinner table, he learned that Fang Zongxi was actually from the provincial capital of Guizhou Province. Many years ago, he had smuggled himself from the mainland to Hong Kong Island to escape famine. He had worked in Hong Kong for decades, rising from a shoeshine boy to his current position as Chief Superintendent of Police. When Yang Dingguo talked about Lu An in front of Fang Zongxi, he learned that Lu An was a cadre from the provincial capital and was young and very capable. So he had the idea of meeting him. Perhaps it was more out of longing for his hometown.
Fang Zongxi raised his glass, smiled at Lu An, and said gently, "Director Lu, you're so busy, yet you still came to drink with this old man like me. Director Lu won't mind, will you?"
Lu An quickly picked up his wine glass and said with a smile, "How could that be? It's my honor to have dinner with the Chief Superintendent. I wouldn't dare to blame you."
Yang Yiyi, sitting next to Lu An, smiled upon hearing his words and said, "Don't dare to blame me? You mean if you dare to blame me, then you will?"
Hearing Yang Yiyi's words, Yang Dingguo and Fang Zongxi both laughed heartily. Lu An took a sip of wine, put his glass down, and said with a wry smile, "Sister Yang, please don't make things difficult for me. In front of Uncle Yang and Uncle Fang, I am just a junior. How can I blame them?"
Upon hearing Lu An call her "Sister Yang," Yang Yiyi frowned slightly, looking displeased, and said, "You call me Sister Yang? Am I older? Am I very old?"
"This..." Lu An was speechless with embarrassment.
Seeing the two bickering and Lu An looking embarrassed, Fang Yingyi, who was standing next to Yang Yiyi, immediately smiled and came to Lu An's rescue, saying, "Yiyi, your little mouth is still so sharp, you won't let it go once you're in the right. Lu An is a guest invited by my dad, so don't offend him. It's not wrong for him to call you 'big sister,' are you younger than him?"
When Yang Yiyi first entered the private room, she noticed the exchange of glances between Lu An and Fang Yingyi. Now, seeing Fang Yingyi speaking up for Lu An, a strange smile appeared on Yang Yiyi's charming face. "Yingyi, you're already protecting him so quickly? We've known each other for twenty years, and our friendship over the years isn't even as good as your one-time meeting with Lu An?"
Fang Yingyi blushed at Yang Yiyi's words, glared at Yang Yiyi with her beautiful eyes, and stopped talking. The best response to this kind of thing is silence, so Fang Yingyi stopped talking, lowered her head and took a sip of milk, but the blush on her face was obvious.
Sitting opposite Yang Yiyi, Yang Dingguo was worried that Yang Yiyi's joke had gone too far. After all, Fang Yingyi was already married. If she hadn't married, such a joke would have been harmless, but it was inappropriate to make such a joke in front of elders and to a married person. So Yang Dingguo scolded Yang Yiyi, saying, "Yiyi, don't make jokes like that. You're such a grown-up, don't you know how to be serious?"
Yang Yiyi didn't care. She stuck out her tongue sullenly, then turned her head and glanced at Lu An next to her, as if to say that it was all his fault that she got scolded.
Lu An could only offer an innocent smile. Fang Zongxi smiled and told Yang Dingguo that it was nothing, then turned back and talked to Lu An with great interest about the provincial capital of Guizhou Province.
He said, "I remember when I left the provincial capital, it was really tough back then. Sometimes I was almost starving. Before coming to Hong Kong, I was almost penniless, with only a pocket watch that had been passed down in my family. I couldn't stand the hunger after arriving in Hong Kong, so I pawned it."
When I finally earned my first job and went back to the pawnshop to redeem my pocket watch, it had already been sold. It was the only thing I had that allowed me to remember my hometown. Having come to Hong Kong alone, it was a kind of emotional anchor. I was heartbroken for a long time after I couldn't redeem it.
Lu An toasted Fang Zongxi, took a small sip of wine, and said, "How dare the pawnshop sell your things so easily? Didn't they have any proof at the time?"
Fang Zongxi smiled bitterly: "Back then, the laws were not perfect. They didn't care about your credentials. If they didn't take advantage of you because you were from out of town, who would they take advantage of? But the pawnshop owner still had some conscience and compensated me for the loss. However, compared to that family heirloom pocket watch, that little bit of money was nothing. Now I regret that I shouldn't have pawned the things left by my father. Some things can't be bought with any amount of money."
As he spoke, Fang Zongxi smiled wryly and said, "You flatter me. As people get older, they like to reminisce about the past. I really hope that one day when I pass away, I can be buried in the land of my hometown."
"Dad, what are you saying? You're still so young, don't talk nonsense." Fang Yingyi's eyes reddened slightly, and she didn't know why her father's words made her feel a little sad.
Fang Zongxi smiled and said, "Everyone has to die someday. There's nothing to be afraid of. Pshaw, look at me, why am I saying such discouraging things?"
Lu An smiled silently, sensing that Fang Zongxi seemed to have something on his mind, but Lu An naturally wouldn't ask. He simply asked softly, "Uncle Fang, don't you have any relatives in the provincial capital?"
Fang Zongxi sighed and said, "I don't have any relatives anymore. I didn't have any relatives before I came to Hong Kong Island. Otherwise, I wouldn't have gone back for more than 30 years. After I retire from my position, I really want to go back and take a look. I want to see how different the mountains and rivers are from back then. You'll have to be my tour guide then."
Lu An nodded with a smile, "Definitely. If Uncle Fang goes to the provincial capital, I will definitely put aside all my work and accompany you around."
"Alright, alright, haha." Fang Zongxi laughed heartily, glanced at Lu An thoughtfully, and said half-jokingly and half-seriously, "If only I had a son or son-in-law like you, that would be great... Ah, never mind, let's not talk about that. Come on, let's all have a drink together."
...
When the party ended, Fang Zongxi asked Lu An to finish his drink so Fang Yingyi could exchange numbers with him. Sitting in Fang Zongxi's car, Fang Yingyi was still feeling shy and embarrassed from exchanging numbers with Lu An. Seeing that his daughter seemed absent-minded, Fang Zongxi smiled and said softly, "Yingyi, what do you think of that kid Lu An?"
Fang Yingyi shifted her gaze from the window to Fang Zongxi, and said with a hint of annoyance, "Dad, aren't you being a little too obvious? I'm not divorced yet, am I? Are you worried that your daughter will be unwanted after the divorce or something?"
Fang Zongxi chuckled and said, "Look at what you're saying. I'm just doing this for your own good. This kid is really good. Your dad has a good eye for people. If possible, I hope you two..."
"Okay, stop, stop." Fang Yingyi's pretty face flushed red with embarrassment, and she spat out, "I've never seen a parent like you, who would love for their daughter to get divorced and then just throw her off to some random man."
Fang Zongxi was displeased and scolded, "You little brat, what are you saying? Yes, I really wish you would divorce Huang Junqin, but to say that I would just throw you off to some man, you are wronging your father. I just think that Lu An is an excellent guy, and he is from Guizhou Province. If you can marry someone from there, our Fang family can be considered to have returned to our roots and settled down there again. Isn't that great?"
"You overthink things." Fang Yingyi rolled her eyes in annoyance and said, "Don't you think about it? I'm not even divorced yet, and you're making it so obvious. What will Uncle Yang think?"
"What can I think? I've known this old guy for decades, we're so close we could share a pair of pants, why would I care what he thinks!"
Fang Yingyi smoothed her hair at her temples and said softly, "Anyway, don't do that again. It's so embarrassing. Besides, I don't have any feelings for Lu An, so please don't play matchmaker."
“Young people, you can cultivate any kind of talent,” Fang Zongxi said with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Fang Yingyi raised her eyebrows and said coquettishly, "Dad, I'm going to get angry if you say that again."
方宗熙叹息一声，道：“你这死丫头也不知道什么眼光，黄俊钦那混蛋那样的，当初你爱的死去活来，而陆安这么优秀，长相也比黄俊钦顺眼，你却说没感觉，你啊你，你想气死我啊。”
方颖怡听了方宗熙的话，郁闷的不再去理方宗熙，将目光看向窗外，沉默下来。
……
而在陆安那边，望着杨定国的车子缓缓开走，陆安对站在自己旁边笑脸盈盈的杨怡怡问道：“原来杨司长是你父亲，真看不出来啊。”
杨怡怡笑眯眯的道：“看不出什么？”
陆安笑道：“你既然有个这么厉害的爸爸，还当什么秘书啊。”
杨怡怡撇嘴道：“不给他当秘书，他若是被别的狐狸精给迷住了我妈怎么办？现在不都是有事秘书干，没事干秘书么？”
陆安苦笑道：“给你爸当秘书有意思吗？”
杨怡怡苦着脸道：“没意思，不过总得有个事情做吧，闲着更无聊。”
陆安坐进杨怡怡的车子里，然后道：“如果不想当你爸的秘书了，给我当秘书吧。”
杨怡怡似笑非笑的望着陆安，媚声道：“你居心不良哦。”
陆安哈哈笑道：“我不是那种没事干秘书的人。”
饶是杨怡怡这种能开玩的女人听了陆安这话，也是妩媚的俏脸羞红不已，瞪了陆安一眼，而后一脸妩媚的道：“今晚去我家吧。”
陆安心里激动了一下，点上一支烟抽了一口，眯着眼睛望着杨怡怡问道：“真的？”
“我像在开玩笑吗？”杨怡怡妩媚的俏脸仿若流光溢彩一般，轻睨了陆安一眼，娇声道：“去还是不去？不去我把你扔路边，你自己打车回去。”
“那我去吧。你老公不在吗？”陆安望着诱人的杨怡怡，喉咙哽咽一下后悻悻问道。
杨怡怡笑着摇头道：“不在，他这混蛋几乎都是在他小三那里过日子，老娘长的貌美如花凭什么要受到如此冷漠，老娘不和那混蛋玩儿了，等手头上的事情处理完了就去和他离婚。”
“没有挽回的余地？”陆安问道。
杨怡怡毅然摇头，然后睨了陆安一眼，鄙视的道：“我说你这人怎么这么虚伪啊，睡人家老婆给人家戴了绿帽不说，还想去做个和事佬？”
“得，我不说了。”陆安知道自己多嘴了，于是悻悻的笑笑，嘴里含着烟，把目光看向窗外，不再吭声。
杨怡怡开了一段距离又忍不住要和陆安说话，于是喂了一声，笑眯眯的道：“你老实告诉我，是不是在此之前就认识方颖怡了？”
陆安听了杨怡怡的话，呛的咳嗽一声，诧异杨怡怡为什么会知道这些，于是心虚的道：“没有的事，以前我们怎么会认识呢。”
杨怡怡似笑非笑的瞅了心虚的陆安一眼，笑眯眯的道：“那你告诉我，为什么你和方颖怡说话的时候我感觉你们两人在眉目传情，似乎以前认识似的？别告诉我看错了，我视力好的很。”
“呃……”陆安语穷，苦笑道：“我们真不认识，你也不想想，我整天从早上忙到晚，怎么去认识这种姑娘。”
“谁知道你这家伙有没有到处鬼混，还有她可不是什么姑娘，结婚都好几年了。”杨怡怡一副吃醋的表情，道：“你觉得我很她谁更漂亮？”
陆安无力的靠在座椅上，郁闷的道：“别问这么狗血的话好吗？”
杨怡怡娇哼一声，道：“我知道答案了，她的性子和样貌确实更招男人喜欢，柔柔弱弱，居家美妇，哪个男人不喜欢！”
陆安悻悻笑了笑，不敢发表意见。
……
远在贵东省省城，楚香怡晚上还是硬着头皮跟着千月去了林振强的父亲林国川的家，通过荷枪实弹士兵的检查，千月将车子缓缓停在了四号楼的位置，在他们之前已经停了三辆豪华轿车，千月看见那辆拉风的劳斯莱斯，就对楚香怡道：“林振强已经到了，他当年弃政从商还真是选对了，生意做的如日中天啊。”
“再多的钱又有什么用？恶心的人永远无法用金钱遮盖住他丑恶的嘴脸。”楚香怡冷声道。
千月笑着推开车门，道：“看来你决心非得和他离婚，我想多半是因为那个陆安吧？”
楚香怡跟着千月下车，听了她的话，摇头道：“不是多半，以前想离但是一直没决心，陆安的出现给了我这个决心，什么家族利益之类的，我凭什么要用自己一辈子的幸福去管什么家族利益，女人不应该为了自己的爱情和幸福自私点吗？”
千月绝美的脸上露出一丝笑意，点头道：“不管怎么样，我都支持你。”
陆安笑着点头，道：“你不怕你表姨夫说你吃里扒外？”
千月冷哼一声，道：“他敢这么说我？再者，我从来没吃过他的什么。”
楚香怡笑道：“也是，你爷爷那么疼你，谁敢给你脸色看。”
此时，客厅的沙发上坐着三个派头十足的男人，而林振强则是一副乖巧模样的站在他们身边，静静的聆听着他们交谈。
楚香怡的父亲楚天山作为省城首富，有着商界无可比拟的地位，多年的养尊处优使得他略微有些小肚隆起的趋势，一副昂贵的金丝眼镜挂在鼻梁上，说话温文尔雅，倒是墨汁气十足的样子，他端起茶杯抿了口茶，将目光看向一旁的林振强，满含深意的问道：“振强啊，最近都在忙些什么啊？”
林振强挤出笑意的道：“爸，我最近正在和南美那边的一个跨国公司洽谈一个矿产的事情，如果能谈下来，到时候能赚不小一笔数额，您要不要参一只股进来？”林振强讨好的问道。
楚天山没什么表情，摇了摇头，道：“我问的不是你公司的事情，我是问你和香怡之间最近相处的怎么样，你有没有主动联系过她，男人嘛，在夫妻之间遇到问题的时候你应该主动一些才对。”
林振强的父亲林国川也是赞同的点头，板着脸对林振强道：“作为男人，你就得主动一点认错，我跟你说的不止一次两次了，如果不能把香怡哄好，下次你就别再进我的家门了，我没有你这个儿子。”
林振强额头开始冒汗了，他郁闷的挤出一丝笑意，尴尬的道：“爸，您放心，我这次一定好好的给香怡道歉，深刻的检讨自己，直到她原谅我为止。”
林国川脸色这才缓和了些，微微点了点头，他这么做其实也是在做给楚天山看，毕竟他们夫妻两人的事情，的确是自己儿子有错在先，所以必须拿出一点认错的态度才行。
坐在楚天山旁边的是千月的父亲千不敌，千不敌长着一张极其标志的国字脸，眉毛粗厚，一脸的刚毅之色，看上去气场十足，对于林振强，千不敌只是淡淡的道：“夫妻没有隔夜的仇，振强啊，作为男人应该有担当些，你这次做的确实不够爷们，得好好反省。”
千不敌正说着林振强，听到敲门声，保姆将房门打开，两个光彩夺目的娇俏女人表情各异的走了进来。
千月性子原本就冷，也没和谁打招呼，而楚香怡也只是象征性的对着三位长辈挤出一丝笑意，两位美人皆是直接将林振强给忽略过去了。
吃饭的时候三个长辈都在劝说楚香怡，希望他能够林振强一次机会，而林振强也表态以后一定好好对待她，一定不再惹他生气之类的虚伪话，但是楚香怡只是麻木着表情默默的吃着菜，等林振强说完后，楚香怡就放下筷子，面无表情的问道：“你说完了？”
林振强微微蹙眉，点了点头。楚香怡就起身道：“抱歉，我有些累了先回家休息，爸，林叔叔、千叔叔，你们慢慢吃。”说完，楚香怡起身拿起椅子上挂着的皮包，转身就走，也不顾后面楚天山生气的喊她回来，自顾自的走出了林国川的家。
千月见状也是站了起来，连个招呼都没打，追着楚香怡而去。
林国川脸色有些难看，没想到这个儿媳妇火气这么大，也不知道他们之间到底发生了什么事情楚香怡如此决绝，再看看无动于衷的林振强，林国川便是一肚子火，吼道：“还杵在这干嘛，还不去追。”
林振强敢违背父亲的意思，赶紧点了点头，然后拿起外套，和楚天山以及千不敌说了句客厅话，便感觉小跑了出去。
“香怡，你等等……”林振强追了出来，朝着前面的楚香怡喊道。
Qian Yue stood beside Chu Xiangyi and said softly, "I'll wait for you in the car." Then she gave her distant cousin a cold look and walked towards her car.
"If it's the same old stuff we said at the dinner table, then there's no need to say it. I find it disgusting," Chu Xiangyi said coldly, without looking at Lin Zhenqiang.
Lin Zhenqiang's expression was somewhat unpleasant as he asked, "What do you want in return for your forgiveness?"
Chu Xiangyi said expressionlessly, "It's impossible. There's no possibility between us anymore."
Lin Zhenqiang's expression turned cold. "Is it because of that bastard named Lu An?"
After hearing Lin Zhenqiang's words, Chu Xiangyi glanced at him and said indifferently, "You're the bastard. You have no right to scold him. This has nothing to do with him. Why do you always blame others for your mistakes? When we got married, you cheated on me behind my back... When you got that woman pregnant and were preparing to have the child, there was no possibility between us anymore."
Ignoring Lin Zhenqiang's astonished expression, Chu Xiangyi walked towards Qian Yue in her elegant black high heels.
Lin Zhenqiang never expected that Chu Xiangyi would even know about his other woman's pregnancy. He looked at Chu Xiangyi's beautiful back and his expression became complicated.
