The address on the business card is on the boundary of a newly developed area in Pudong. This land belongs to a village. Because it is next to the edge of the main development area, it was taken out by the village to develop real estate and lease it to nearby companies and business operators. The village has thus benefited considerably.
Che Shunde rented a house on a multi-storey building here, decorated in an antique style, filled with porcelain calligraphy and paintings of unknown authenticity, neither like a private house nor like a company, neither like a gallery nor like a tea room , is a four like.
He usually spends a lot of time here chatting and bragging with all kinds of friends. There is a restaurant downstairs. If he wants to eat, he can ask the restaurant to cook some dishes and deliver them. He is very happy. Outsiders see that he is very easy to make friends with, but they can't figure out how he makes money.
Xu Zhongxia had a premonition that Che Shunde would avoid him, so he came directly to the door without calling in advance.
Seeing Xu Zhongxia enter the door, Che Shunde was obviously taken aback, and when he saw the person coming in behind her, the teacup in his hand was almost thrown on the ground. He politely invited the man who was chatting with him away, and asked the two young men to sit down. He looked at Mai Lidong and asked hesitantly, "Dongdong, do you know Miss Xu?"
Don't look at the affectionate shouting, in fact, Mai Lidong and Che Shunde did not say more than 10 sentences when they met at all family gatherings. This is the relationship between most relatives, close but alienated.
"Miss Xu and I are talking about friends." Mai Lidong didn't lie to Che Shunde.
Xu Zhongxia glanced at Mai Lidong, wondering if doing so would mess things up, but Mai Lidong said that he didn't have to hide it from Che Shunde, so she believed that Mai Lidong had his reasons.
Che Shunde was surprised, "You, do you know about Miss Xu's family?"
Mai Lidong said calmly: "I know, and my mother knows too."
"Your mother also knows?" Che Shunde seems to know nothing about what happened in Mai's house recently.
"My mother knows, of course she objects to our dating. My mother doesn't know that we are still dating, so don't tell the truth."
Che Shunde immediately said: "No, no, I won't talk about it. I usually guard my small place, and there is no chance for me to speak at your mother's place."
Mai Lidong said again: "The eldest aunt knows about our affairs, hasn't the eldest aunt told the eldest uncle?"
After being called uncle, Che Shunde smiled wryly.
"My relationship with your eldest aunt, that is," he paused for a few seconds before choking out four words, "It exists in name only."
Family ugliness should not be publicized, Che Shunde is usually reluctant to talk about this family matter to others, because it is too embarrassing. But now the nephew is "invisible", perhaps because the nephew came to him and "invisible" to him.
This nephew is notoriously rebellious, noble and aloof, and not easy to get close to. His son has complained many times because of this in front of him, but he has nothing to fear from this nephew, but he is afraid of this Miss Xu. When I saw her that day, I felt like an old person, so I struck up a conversation on a whim, but after learning that Miss Xu was really related to that old person, he backed away.
Mai Lidong smiled and said: "No way, the eldest uncle and the eldest aunt have always been affectionate and loving. The relatives in the family see it and envy them very much."
"That's all fake. If your aunt wants to save face, just let her go. I don't know what she's up to. She doesn't need me at all, but she insists I'll just say this in front of you."
Che Shunde was completely open, he was puzzled, looked at the two young men and asked: "What do you want me to do?" (Remember this website: www.hlnovel.com
