One

Many things are not forgotten, but they are not remembered or cannot be remembered clearly.

When Murong Yun stood in Zhonghai's tallest building, Binhai Building, looking at the beautiful scenery by the river, he was not happy and satisfied, nor was he so-called proud; Rather, it fell into a deep sense of worry.

An hour ago, my daughter called and said that she might have owed a huge debt outside. Because she suddenly couldn't contact her boyfriend for some reason.

Her boyfriend runs a themed restaurant. But by the time this morning passed, the restaurant had not opened. Through the glass of the dining room, she could see that the inside had been removed. And her boyfriend didn't inform her in advance of all this.

Then a strange phone call came to her: "You're someone's boyfriend, right?" ”

"That's right."

"Your boyfriend asked me to borrow the money to open a theme restaurant before."

"But what does it have to do with me?"

"Do you know whose name the guarantor he wrote on the contract at the time?"

Murong Qian immediately realized that she had fallen into one lie after another. What dad who runs a real estate business in Nanyang is a scam. What's even more infuriating is that she was drunk and taken to the hotel by him that night, and it turned out that the handprint pressed in a daze turned out to be this guarantee contract.

Seeing him, Murong Qian lowered her head.

"I've told you a long time ago that I don't know how many times. I've warned you how thick it is, no, it should be a warning to you. Murong Yun sat on the sofa in his office.

Murong Qian cried: "It's too late to say anything now." Isn't it? ”

Murong Yun said, "It's not too late. ”

He picked up the phone and handed it to her: "You immediately use this phone to call the police." ”

"No, Dad."

She took a few steps back, "Dad, I really can't do this. I can't. ”

"When is it, do you still have to defend him?"

She ran out angrily.

Leaving the Marina Building, she sped along a tree-lined avenue.

That's when she bumped into a cyclist.

She and the man both fell.

She watched him get up from the ground: "Are you alright?" You okay? ”

The man lifted the bike up: "Hey, I'm unlucky!" People now! ”

She saw the back of the man limping and pushing the bicycle: "Do you want to go to the hospital?" ”

"No need."

The man was gone anyway.

It was about five o'clock in the afternoon when I got back to the apartment. She cooks a bowl of noodles and turns on the TV. The TV was playing a rolling news: "Zhonghai Municipal Municipality promises to complete the demolition and reconstruction of the entire Marina Building within two years." β€œ

Marina Building to be demolished? No, it should be rebuilt.

Why do you give up when you give up on a good prime location?

She glanced out the window, where she could faintly see the shadow of the city's tallest building, the Marina Tower.

She couldn't imagine what it would be like two years from now.

Two

What will become of the Marina Building in two years is a difficult question for the Zhonghai municipal government.

At a meeting on the renovation of Zhonghai Municipal Government, around the construction plan for the Marina Building. A young man suddenly stood up: "Leaders, I have a suggestion, I think the Marina Building can only be expanded, not demolished. ”

At a time when everyone was proposing to tear down this behemoth as soon as possible, a man suddenly stood up and said such a strange and untimely opinion.

"Tell me what you think about this?" The mayor did not stop him, but strongly encouraged him to continue.

The young man said: "As a landmark, the Marina Building is undoubtedly an important business card of the city. ”

The mayor nodded.

The people next to him laughed at him: "The little ghost is not sensible." ”

Murong Qian came to the location of the ruins, where the construction team was stepping up their work.

This place has too many memories for Murong Qian. As a child, she grew up here and danced rubber bands with the girl next door.

But now everything is changing here.

"What are you doing standing here?"

Her mood at this time couldn't help but be stimulated and disturbed, and when she heard the voice behind her, she unconsciously turned her head. Even a little angry.

"Who are you?" She asked.

The young man said, "Ah, aren't you the one you were yesterday." ”

Her expression was even more stunned.

"Do you remember? You hit me yesterday, and my feet still hurt. ”

She recognized it as the one who rode the bike yesterday.

"Judging by your expression, you should remember me."

"That's right. You okay. ”

"If you are blessed." He said with a smile.

She asked, "Do you live here too?" ”

"yes."

She said, "Then you must have moved in later." ”

"How so?"

"How so? Because I've grown up in this area, but I've never seen one. ”

"Look at your logic. Can it be the same when I was a child and now? ”

"And what's your name? See if I can know. ”

"My name is Tian Wenyu." "When I was seven years old, I went with my father to a foreign country," he said. ”

"Then it's because I'm back now."

"The need for work."

"Dare to ask where to go."

"Contemptible and talented, a small errand in the town hall."

She waved her hand and turned to leave.

"What's wrong with you?"

She glanced back at him.

Three

When she got home, she saw her father reading the newspaper.

"Dad, I'm back."

The father put the newspaper aside: "You sit." ”

She sat down.

The father said, "You are in a sad mood. I can understand that. ”

"I'm not sad," she said. It's sad. ”

"Did you call the police?"

She shook her head.

"Then why don't you do that?"

"I don't think I can do it, at least I don't have the courage."

"Why can't you. After all these years of studying abroad, did you come back and become a person who can't control yourself? ”

"His words, after all, have been loved by me."

My father said, "I'm tired of hearing that. Is this still my daughter? Is this still the same self-motivated you? β€œ

Rewind time to three years ago, when she first returned home.

That day she felt the air of her homeland for the first time, and it was true that she had been abroad for too long.

That's when she received a phone call from a marriage agency.

"Is it Miss Murong?"

"That's right."

"We've found the person you're looking for. When do you think it's convenient to meet? ”

She saw him for the first time on a cool summer afternoon.

"Hello."

"Hello." He smiled so shyly.

"What's your name?"

"My name is Qi Liang."

"Where do you work?"

"I have nothing now."

"But your resume says you're worth millions."

"That's a lie."

"So blunt?"

"I'm such a straightforward person. If I write that I'm a poor bastard, I don't think you want to see me. ”

"What's so scary? Do you think girls are so realistic now? ”

"At least in my opinion."

"What do you mean?"

"I have the ability to see through the world, will you believe it?"

"You're a philosopher?"

He shook his head.

"Then it's good. We are not saints, so why should we look at the world so indifferently? Wouldn't it be better to change the mood? ”

He said: "In my opinion, Miss Murong is more like a philosopher. ”

She smiled and said, "Well, I've just read a little more abroad and seen a little more." ”

"But now the situation at home is not more complicated than abroad."

"It's for you."

"You look down on me."

"I didn't mean that."

"And what do you mean by that?"

"It's just a feeling."

"What's wrong?"

"I think you should be looking for a job."

"How do you know I'm fine?"

"You said it yourself. You're penniless. ”

"That's just my now. But it doesn't represent my future. ”

"Do you have a future?"

"Do you think it's possible for a person to have no future?" He said. "Look at what I'm talking about, your eldest lady's style is showing up again."

She got up in a rage and tried to leave.

"But my money is in my head."

"What do you mean?"

"I'm creative."

"Creativity?"

"As a returnee from abroad, doesn't the eldest lady understand what it means to be creative?"

"I understand, of course I do." She said, "I just don't understand you." ”

"I have something hard to understand. I have a dream. ”

"Do you have a dream?"

"Yes. I hope to turn it into reality. ”

Four

"My dream is to open my own restaurant."

He said word by word.

Murong Qian returned to her seat.

She suddenly felt that the man sitting next to her was much greater than she had imagined.

"Go on. My future entrepreneur. ”

"I'm not much of a future entrepreneur. I'm just an ordinary person, an ordinary person who works tirelessly to achieve his dreams. ”

"I suddenly found out that I was a little interested in you. Let's go on. ”

And since then, they have gradually become a pair of inseparable lovers.

Suddenly, one day, Qi Liang ran into the apartment: "Ah, Murong Qian, our restaurant is about to open." ”

"Really?" She also felt very excited, the kind from the bottom of her heart.

He took her hand and crossed across the road.

He pointed to the inconspicuous small restaurant opposite: "Look, Murong Qian." ”

Murong Qian was also very excited.

"Look. I said that one day we would succeed. ”

Murong Qian wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes.

She walked in, carefully surveyed everything around her, and looked at every corner of the restaurant as if she were expecting a life.

Suddenly he lowered his head.

"What's wrong with you?"

"Nothing."

"You say. You must have something on your mind. ”

"There's really nothing."

"There must be."

He stood up: "You saw it all. I've spent a lot of money on the faΓ§ade alone. I also need a sum of money to renovate. ”

"That's what worries you?"

"Yes."

"Then why didn't you tell me sooner."

"Tell you? Tell you what's the use. ”

"At least I can figure it out for you."

"What can you do?"

"I can take you to my father."

"Your father?"

She pointed to the tall building opposite: "He works there." ”

"Oh. Good. ”

Five

"Daddy."

She pushed open the door to her father's office.

His father was talking to someone.

She sat with him and listened quietly.

Occasionally, her father would look at the two of them.

Her father seemed to care deeply about the very incongruous young couple.

"Xiao Qian, is he?"

"Dad, I told you about it."

"Oh. I see, it's your boyfriend, isn't it? ”

"Yes."

"You can take him around the company. I'm a bit busy here right now. ”

Qi Liang stood up: "Don't bother uncle." ”

Coming out of the office, he asked her, "Is this your father, a very good man?" Why do you always say he's harsh? ”

"To you outsiders, he seems to be very kind."

"If I could, I'd like to talk to your father alone."

She thought for a moment, "That's great. ”

"Is this building your father's?"

"Yes. He built this commercial building from scratch. ”

"Then he must be a great man."

"So to speak. But I don't like him at all. ”

They came to that alley: "This is where I lived in my childhood. ”

"I think you must have had a colorful childhood."

"Everyone's childhood is wonderful," she laughs. ”

"But I don't think so. I often quarrel with my father in Singapore. Suddenly, it was as if he had slipped out.

"Ah, you said your father was in Singapore?"

"I'm sorry. I said I slipped out. ”

They strolled through the gardens.

There are a lot of children playing here.

"What's wrong. My father was in the real estate business. ”

"I was not mistaken. Judging by your speech and demeanor, you look like those boys. ”

"How so?"

"You have a good sense of humor and generosity. This is evident from this. ”

"People say love is blind. You are not afraid that I will deceive you. ”

"Deception?"

"yes, there are a lot of emotional liars out there. I'm going to lie to you little girls. ”

"I'm not a little girl anymore. I have my own judgment. ”

Six

Tian Wenyu seemed to be aware of his rudeness in treating that girl.

"I apologize to you. I was being a little reckless to you. ”

"You don't have to apologize to me. I'm already a victim of injury. That's why I hate men like you. ”

"And what kind of man do you think I am?"

"Sanctimonious."

"It looks like you're really the one who has been hurt."

"Well, isn't that enough?"

"Good. I leave. ”
