Chapter 336 Meeting the Parents (Part )
Duanmu was surprised and asked, "Are you going to quit?"
Bai Qi said, "The housekeeper has been arrested. What else can I do? I am also desperate. If I break the tripartite agreement, someone will definitely come after me. It is better to take the bonus and live freely. The captain I recommend is my man. Tell your captain and we can continue to cooperate."
Duanmu said angrily: "We are still cooperating."
Bai Qi did not say anything back. Duanmu was silent for a long time and said, "The butler must die. Only when he dies can Qi Sha return to the arena. Without Qi Sha, Nemo's existence is meaningless, and the execution team and the special service team have lost their original value."
Duanmu said: "The captain will not mind your breach of contract, as long as you tell us about the housekeeper's situation."
Bai Qi said: "He is now in a private hospital in Berlin and is no longer in danger of death. However, for some unknown reason, there is something wrong with his brain. It may be short-term, or it may be due to irreversible damage caused by the poison. The doctors have not been able to draw a conclusion yet."
Duanmu asked: "Is there something wrong with your brain? Amnesia?"
Bai Qi replied: "Dementia."
Duanmu thought for a while and said: "Dementia may not be a good thing. When he sees familiar people and things, he will speak a few words."
Bai Qi said: "His value seems to be limited to this, so someone suggested that he be invited to the Christmas party and sit in the main seat to humiliate him."
Duanmu didn't comment and asked, "You're retired, so what about Xue Bing?"
Bai Qi said: "She plans to immigrate to New Zealand and live with Li Liang."
Duanmu smiled: "She is looking for death, right? Luke and Fiddy suffered a great loss because of her betrayal, and it is also because of her betrayal that they are now in a state of defeat. A lean camel is bigger than a horse, Luke and Fiddy will not let him go."
Bai Qi said: "So I am also looking for a suitable bodyguard for her."
Duanmu asked: "Cui Jian?"
Bai Qi said: "I will be in contact with Cui Jian and Diudiu in the near future. Although Cui Jian is not a bodyguard in the traditional sense, the name Cui Jian has a certain deterrent effect on Luke and Fidi. Let's not talk about me, what about you?"
Duanmu: "Me? Of course I will continue to work with my boss."
Bai Qi: "Don't you want to find a beautiful place and spend a few years happily with every beautiful girl?"
Duanmu said, "I haven't thought about it. Hey, are you willing to live in seclusion like this? Do you want me to recommend a good seclusion project to the captain? Besides, you have been in the underworld for so many years, you must have some enemies. With my captain's protection, you can get first-hand information and intelligence, and at least live longer."
Bai Qi thought for a while and said, "I want to take a break first. In all these years of fighting, people around me have fallen down from time to time. I want to go and see them. By the way, do you want Ye Rannuo? Although she is not as good as the girl named Yiyi you are recruiting now, her computer skills are really good."
Duanmu sneered: "Don't come on, don't think I don't know that Ye Rannuo and Xue Bing have a sisterly relationship."
Bai Qi smiled apologetically: "Haha. Find a time to ask Cui Jian out so I can talk to him."
Duanmu: "He has been tinkering with the fishing boat recently, and there is also a little girl who has just finished the college entrance examination. He is very busy."
Bai Qi asked: "Xueying?"
Duanmu nodded and asked in surprise: "How did you know?"
Bai Qi said: "Didn't I suspect Cui Jian before? So I investigated Cui Jian's surface information. During that time, I made an interesting discovery."
Duanmu was curious: "Oh?"
Bai Qi said: "Lawyer Mo Ling once accompanied Yun Xinyue and Cui Jian to a private hospital for a DNA test. The results did not match. It's very strange, right? Mo Ling accompanied Yun Xinyue and Cui Jian to do a DNA test publicly. According to the nature of the rich, they must have hired someone to steal the DNA sample and secretly took it for comparison."
Duanmu asked: "Then?"
Bai Qi replied: "Remember that Cui Jian once stayed at Xue's house for a few days? I took the samples for comparison."
Duanmu said: "Cui Jian is Yun Xinyue's son."
Bai Qi was surprised: "You know?"
Duanmu replied: "I have already had such a guess, but I don't want to provoke Cui Jian because he might kill me to silence me. I'm not kidding. A person who seems to care nothing actually has something he cares about very much. I advise you not to talk nonsense."
Bai Qi nodded: "I know, so I have never used this information until now."
Duanmu said: "Except for blackmailing the Yun family, Cui Jian has no use. By the way, Bai Qi, are you hiding something from me?"
Bai Qi asked: "Why do you have such an idea?"
Duanmu said, "You have been able to hide this information for so long, and now you are telling me casually, I don't believe you have no purpose. But Cui Jian is really worthless, and if he is squeezed dry, there will only be a few dollars of inheritance. So the biggest possibility is that you concealed something in our previous topic. You said the first secret was that Xue Bing was going to immigrate with Li Liang, and then talked about Ye Rannuo, which involved Cui Jian, and even the relationship between Cui Jian and Yun Xinyue."
Duanmu looked at Bai Qi with a smile: "The Bai Qi I know is definitely not a gossipy person. He betrayed his boss Xue Bing and talked about other people's scandals. Besides, our relationship is really not to the point where we can speak ill of others together."
Bai Qi sighed: "You're overthinking it. As you said, it's hard to let go of everything."
Duanmu took out his phone: "Okay, I'll help you make an appointment with Cui Jian."
Cui Jian's voice came: "What?"
Duanmu lost his mind when he heard the impatient tone: "Call the dog."
Cui Jian sighed: "Tell me, what's the matter?" This guy is so childish
Duanmu said: "Bai Qi wants to treat you to a meal, are you free tomorrow?"
Cui Jian replied: "The day after tomorrow. The company asked me to do something tomorrow."
Duanmu narrowed his eyes: "Company? Old Li? Or a little girl?"
Cui Jian laughed: "Mind your own business and you will get more food."
These words were so childish that people couldn't complain. Duanmu said, "Okay, call me when you have time."
Cui Jian asked: "Is Bai Qi disabled? Or are you just looking for trouble? He wanted to treat me to a meal, why did he ask me through you?"
Duanmu looked at Bai Qi and signaled: He scolded you.
Bai Qi smiled: The fact is that you are just looking for trouble.
The truth is that Duanmu wanted to take advantage of this meal. If Bai Qi's conditions can poach Cui Jian, then he can use higher conditions to poach Cui Jian. By the way, let's take a look at Cui Jian's interest in quitting his job and emigrating.
……
Cui Jian was very busy today. He got up early in the morning to get his hair done. This was the first time in his life. Although he didn't know why trimming that little hair cost 10 won, Cui Jian still went. He put on the custom-made suit that Ye Lan had given him and had never worn before. He looked very handsome. He received the gift from the merchant at the villa and waited anxiously for Ye Lan at home. Then he went to Ye's house with Ye Lan.
Cui Jian instinctively resisted Ye Lan's suggestion to go to Ye's house for dinner, thinking that even if they had to eat, they should wait a month. But Cui Jian couldn't refuse Ye Lan's very reasonable request, so he prepared carefully for the whole morning.
This was not the first time Cui Jian came to the Ye family, but now was different from the past. Workers had a thousand different opinions about their bosses, and the prospective father-in-law had a natural tendency to suppress his prospective son-in-law.
The difference in status made Cui Jian straighten his back. Ye Lan couldn't help but laugh when she saw Cui Jian so nervous for the first time. She tried to say sweet words and jokes along the way, but it didn't work. Cui Jian was so nervous that the smile he forced out could scare the hell out of him.
The housekeeper of the Ye family greeted Cui Jian at the door and escorted him to the living room. In the living room, Ye Zheng was playing chess with Mr. Ye, while Ye Wen, who was sitting on the sofa, was making tea and talking on the phone. Seeing Cui Jian coming in, Ye Wen gestured and looked at him to let him do whatever he wanted, and he stood up and left the living room to continue talking on the phone.
Cui Jian first met Grandpa Ye and Ye Zheng. Ye Zheng always remembered that Cui Jian led him through gunfire and hail of bullets. He decided to brag about this for the rest of his life, so he was particularly enthusiastic when he met Cui Jian.
Mr. Ye asked, "Can you make tea?"
Cui Jian nodded: "Yes."
Mr. Ye said, "Go make some tea first. Xiaozheng and I will finish playing chess."
Ye Lan whispered in Cui Jian's ear: "Go make tea for my dad." She knew that Cui Jian lacked emotional intelligence and understanding.
Cui Jian nodded and understood, so he sat aside with Ye Lan and started to boil water and wash the cups. His movements were not very skillful, but the process was correct.
When the first round of tea was poured out and the tea fragrance was overflowing, Ye Wen returned to the living room. Cui Jian immediately stood up to greet him. Ye Wen motioned him to sit down. Cui Jian sat down and continued to make tea. Ye Lan handed the gift to Cui Jian, and Cui Jian stood up again and handed him the gift: "Uncle, this is a little gift."
Ye Wen took it and put it aside without paying any attention. He said, "Thank you. Cui Jian, are you satisfied with your current job?"
Cui Jian nodded: "Very satisfied." He kept pouring tea for Ye Wen.
Ye Wen took the tea and drank it in one gulp, then put the cup in front of him. Cui Jian added more tea, and Ye Wen asked, "What do you think about managing the company?" This question was ambiguous. First, it asked about your opinion of the current company, and second, it asked if you had any ideas about managing the company. If Cui Jian had ambitions, he would definitely answer in the same way.
Unfortunately, Cui Jian didn’t, and answered honestly: “I don’t have the ability to manage a company.”
Ye Wen frowned and asked, "Are you so unconfident?"
Cui Jian nodded and admitted: "Yes, I really don't have confidence in management."
Ye Wen was not angry: "As a colleague, as a drinking friend, it is cheap for you to say this. But as an elder, I am glad that you can tell the truth. However, bodyguard work is a very dangerous job after all. Do you have any plans for your future?"
Cui Jian replied: “There is no plan.”
Facing Cui Jian's honesty, Ye Wen answered honestly: "I don't like this truth."
Cui Jian explained: "I am very flexible. From security guard to bodyguard, from chef to captain, I can do everything. If you have to talk about planning, it depends on what she needs." Cui Jian looked at Ye Lan beside him, and Ye Lan responded with a charming smile.
Ye Wen had no intention of letting Cui Jian go, and asked, "If Xiao Lan wants to be sent overseas for a few years to develop the company, what are your plans?"
Cui Jiandao: "I can be a bodyguard or a driver. I can speak English and Spanish. If you give me some more time, I can also try to get a pilot's license."
Ye Wen asked again: "What if Xiao Lan doesn't want to get married?"
Cui Jian said: "I respect her."
Ye Wen continued to ask: "What if Xiao Lan asks you to stay at home and be a househusband?"
Cui Jian replied: "I am very happy to do so."
Ye Wen couldn't help but smile: "So, you don't even have a bit of self."
Cui Jian replied: "I never had any big ambitions. Meeting Mr. Ye is my greatest luck."
Ye Wen was surprised: "You still call her President Ye?"
Cui Jian looked at Ye Lan. He had many names for her, but only Mr. Ye was worthy of being called. Ye Lan blushed and said to Ye Wen, "It's just a name." He glared at her.
Ye Wen smiled and did not continue asking. Instead, he asked, "Cui Jian, I heard that you dated the girl from the Li family when you lost your memory."
Cui Jian nodded: "Yes."
Ye Wen asked: "Why did you break up?"
Cui Jiandao: "While I was dating her, I had intimate actions with other women."
Ye Wen laughed: "You are really honest." If Cui Jian blamed Lin Yu or Li Qin when explaining his relationship with Li Qin, Ye Wen would think that Cui Jian was an irresponsible person. He knew about this matter and must have known the inside story of it.
Ye Wen felt that there was nothing wrong with Cui Jian's basic character. As long as his daughter liked him, that was enough. After all, Ye Lan was not a love-brained person and had the ability to distinguish.
At this time, Ye's mother came down the stairs and saw Cui Jian standing up to greet her at first sight. She couldn't help but show some displeasure in her eyes.
She was born in a middle-class family, and her living conditions were not good, but they were pretty good. She has an extraordinary talent for piano and has achieved success in the field of piano. If she insists on her own path, she has the potential to become an international pianist.
The attraction of a wealthy family, especially the Ye family, to the little girl far exceeded that of Ye Wen himself. Moreover, Ye Wen was a dragon among men, with outstanding character and talent. Therefore, when Ye Wen proposed marriage, Ye's mother did not hesitate to end her career and marry into the Ye family.
Since the Ye family had few members, they always refused marriages to avoid being annexed. They did not require their daughter-in-law or son-in-law to provide much help to the Ye family, as long as they did not cause trouble. Ye's mother, who was well educated and had a clean background, fully met the requirements of the Ye family.
The reason why Ye's mother didn't like Cui Jian: Cui Jian was too low class, and she was enough to be a person who crossed the class. The idea of relying on men to improve one's value was the biggest reason why she didn't like Cui Jian. She thought Ye Lan was very good, and Ye Lan's husband should be better than Ye Lan. But she didn't think that according to her standards, there were few suitable men in Korea.
She had discussed this matter with Ye Wen. Ye Wen knew what she was thinking. He also knew that he could not convince her and could not reason with her, so he just said: Mind your own business and don't interfere in their affairs.
Ye Wen's attitude towards his mother was very direct. In the early years, Ye Wen also tried to reason with his mother, which was not completely useless, but it was indeed useless. The reason why Ye's mother agreed to something she opposed was never because she was persuaded by Ye Wen, but because she was overwhelmed by Ye Wen.
When Ye Lan was very young, her mother began to plan for her language enlightenment. She hoped that Ye Lan would learn English, French and Korean at the same time. Ye Wen thought that doing so would easily cause Ye Lan to have language confusion. Ye's mother produced evidence, and experts said that the golden time was before the age of 6. After several hours of communication about this matter, Ye Wen finally decided: no learning.
After Ye Wen left, Ye's mother hugged little Ye Lan and wiped her tears, feeling that both she and her daughter were very pitiful.
A more typical case is that Ye's mother took care of Ye Lan all day and was unwilling to let go. Even when Ye Lan was 8 years old, she still slept with her mother. This issue has been discussed for several years. The Ye family needs a career-oriented child, not a child who enjoys life. In the end, it was Ye Wen who made the final decision. Ye's mother cried for several months.
After living together for so many years, Ye Wen already knew that communicating with Ye's mother was more difficult than negotiating with terrorists. So was Ye Wen always right? Of course not, but Ye Wen would accept his mistakes and apologize to Xiao Ye Lan and Ye's mother for his mistakes. After more than 20 years of marriage, Ye's mother had never apologized to Ye Wen for anything. Ye's mother believed that she was right in all disputes.
"Please sit down." Ye's mother responded simply and sat down next to Ye Wen.
