Chapter 358： the deadline is up

Chapter 358 The deadline has arrived

"Yeah, but I won't do such a thankless thing for free. So now I'll charge you a little interest." Fade Chen squinted slightly and smiled, and leaned his head on the other side's shoulder again.

Feeling the masculine aura coming towards him, mixed with the smell of sweat and that kind of power, Yingxianwu trembled inexplicably, and actually lowered his head and fell silent. So they both stopped talking.

At the same time, in the old mansion of the Chen family in the capital, Chen Huatian, the old man, was sitting quietly in front of the desk in a wheelchair. Not far away, the two sons, the eldest Chen Bingzhang and the third Chen Yaohong, were sitting equally on both sides of the old man. Farther away, there are two other men who seem to be only forty or fifty years old. One of them is Chen Zhenjun, one of the third generation of the Chen family, and the other...

He looks tall and thin, wearing a suit, very energetic, and he doesn't look like he is in the late forties. There are few wrinkles on his face, and his expression looks very honest... But if there is a Jingcheng officialdom The person above is here, and he must be recognized at a glance, one of the third-generation double tigers of the Chen family in the capital, and one of the deputy directors of a special operations bureau.

"All come?"

Chen Huatian, Mrs. Chen saw that everyone in the study had arrived, and slowly put down the "National Policy" in his hand, his turbid eyes showed a touch of majesty and aura, glanced at everyone present, and said lightly.

"dad!"

"grandfather."

Immediately, there were several voices in the room, either old or full of energy.

"Dad, is it important that you brought us all here tonight?" The old man, Chen Yaohong, the third son of the old man, said slowly as soon as the voices of the crowd fell.

The old man's third son, Chen Yaohong, is a frail-looking old man. He is estimated to be in his 60s or 70s. His wrinkled old face is full of brown spots, his arms, legs and feet also look very thin, and his white hair is sparse. , looks like one by one, just like the kind of person who is about to step into the coffin board.

"I called you here... Naturally, I have something to say." However, Wen Yan glanced at his third son, and the old man said coldly.

"Yes." Hearing that it was an old man like Chen Yaohong, his whole body trembled slightly, and he hurriedly said in a low voice. He naturally didn't forget that his father was a very domineering person, so he didn't like anyone to interrupt him.

Seeing this scene, everyone present did not speak, and remained silent... as if they were used to it.

Chen Yaohong Chen Yaohong squinted his turbid eyes slightly, and suddenly looked at his eldest son's grandson, and said lightly: "Zhenjun, there is nothing wrong with Xiaolin, right?"

"Yes, Grandpa."

Chen Zhenjun obviously didn't expect the old man to ask about this, and was a little flattered, but he nodded and said, "After the treatment, Xiaolin's condition has gradually stabilized. Mr. Du said that he only needs to stay at his place. After a year and a half of recuperation, it should be able to recover."

"yes?"

Hearing the old man nodded slightly, he continued: "Old Du is the second only national player in this capital after Xun Lun. Since he has said so, then naturally there is no big problem... In this case, it can be regarded as a Good news."

Speaking of this, he suddenly paused again, and said something intriguing: "As expected of the seed of my old Chen family, it's really amazing."

Hearing this, everyone present couldn't help but stunned slightly, especially Chen Zhenjun and Chen Bingzhang father and son, who were even more surprised and gave the old man a deep look... Could it be that the old man is going to talk about it?

And if the two of them can think of this, Chen Zhenguo and his father Chen Yaohong will not be left behind. I saw that Chen Yaohong's turbid old eyes showed a slightly strange color, looked at Chen Zhenjun, and suddenly said: "Zhenjun, I heard that your son's wounded child is going to Jiangnan to invite a genius doctor, would you like it?"

"...Yes, Uncle Third. Mr. Chen was indeed invited by me from Jiangnan, and he is indeed a genius doctor." Hearing this, Chen Zhenjun hesitated for a while, but nodded. At the same time, he couldn't help but subconsciously glanced at his cousin.

I saw it... At this moment, his face was extremely complicated.

"Dad, you suddenly called us all, so you don't have to go around in circles, right? Is there something you can't say?" But at this moment, Chen Bingzhang, Mr. Chen suddenly said. Looking at the old man.

Hearing that, the old man's face froze slightly, and he gave his eldest son a deep look with some expressionless expression. In the end, the old skin on his face just shook, and he leaned on the soft backrest of the wheelchair behind him and looked up at the ceiling. It was like an old monk who entered into meditation, and fell silent for a long time.

Seeing this scene, the expressions of everyone present changed slightly, because this kind of behavior of the old man was too strange, making them unpredictable.

But at times like this, they naturally didn't dare to ask questions, so they had to wait quietly in their hearts.

"Hey!"

After a long time, the old man, like an old monk, finally sighed.

He turned his turbid eyes to the grandson on the third son's side, and said slowly: "Zhenguo, the people who were in the seats earlier talked to me on the phone, and they asked me who was going to take you and Zhenjun first. In this session, I thought about it for a long time, and finally told them... I chose Zhenjun, you won't blame grandpa, right?"

Hearing this, everyone present couldn't help trembling, whether it was the father and son of Chen Bingzhang and Chen Zhenjun, or the father and son of Chen Yaohong and Chen Zhenguo, it was the same...

"dad!"

Especially the old man Chen Yaohong was stunned when he heard the words, a gloomy and gloomy color flashed across his turbid old eyes, and his tone was somewhat dissatisfied. Because the old man suddenly said such words and made such a choice, didn't he give up his son?

After all, in the political arena, is there such a sentence circulating among the top red families like them.

That is, take a slow step, a slow step, even if you can finally sit where you should be, it will be too late. He lost to his eldest brother Chen Bingzhang back then, resulting in a slow, slow step, so now... how can he be reconciled?

"okay."

However, the old man suddenly lowered his face when he heard the words, and said gloomily: "Although Zhen Guo has a good view of the overall situation and has a good understanding of the general situation, he still lacks some courage. In this regard, Zhen Jun has done a better job, and it is more suitable for our old Chen family to charge into battle. !so…"

"Courage? Dad, is it because this kid violated your words and went to Jiangnan to invite my grandson to the capital. This is the so-called Courage!?" But this time Chen Yaohong, the old man Chen, didn't keep his mouth shut, but his tone was even more angry. Dao; "Dad, you have to figure out, if it wasn't for you back then... why would there be such a situation today!?"

As soon as these words came out, the color of the crowd changed.

"Thirdest, what nonsense are you talking about? Shut up!" Chen Bingzhang, Mr. Chen couldn't help but scold, still winking. Just kidding, as an old man, how has he ever been questioned like this?

"Dad, what are you doing? I'm fine..." Even Chen Zhenguo's expression suddenly changed when he saw this, and he said in a panic. After all, in the eyes of their younger generation, the old man is domineering and powerful, but now, he didn't expect his father to suddenly explode like this.

"okay."

However, this time, the old man Chen Huatian was not angry, he just waved his hand calmly, looked at his third son, and said deeply: "Yaohong, I know that for so many years, you have always hated me in your heart. Hate me. I didn't choose you at the beginning, but your big brother."

"...I just feel worthless for my son!" Hearing this, the old man Chen Yaohong's face changed a few times, and finally his tone became a little weaker, turning his head to the side in dissatisfaction.

"If you could refute me like this, maybe then, I would have changed my mind." But what the old man said next made the expression on Chen Yaohong's face stunned. It's been a long time since I didn't seem to come back to my senses.

Not only him, but even the eyes of the other people present looking at the old man at the moment, can't help but subconsciously look a little strange.

Because they suddenly felt that the old man tonight seemed to be different from usual.

"Yaohong, in front of you, maybe my identity is only your father or grandfather. But in the eyes of those outside, I am the Optimus Prime of the entire old Chen family, and I must be responsible for the entire family! You should understand that a promise For a big family, courage is such an important character! Ask yourself, if Bingzhang gave you that position, would you be able to do better than him? And that position is actually really hard to sit in!" The old man exclaimed.

And this time, Mr. Chen Yaohong was speechless when asked. Yeah, even if he sits in his eldest brother's position, is it guaranteed to... do better? Higher position means greater responsibility. And the weight of that responsibility is enough to crush a person, just like... the old man now.

"Dad, I was wrong. Brother, I'm sorry..." They are already in their 60s and 70s, what else can't they see through? It's nothing more than obsession and unwillingness, and now that everything has been said, the old man Chen Yaohong will naturally let go.

"It's good if you can figure it out. At least it's enough to see you put down the grudges in your heart for so many years before I leave." The old man Wen Yan smiled and said.

"Go away?"

But when he said this, everyone present was shocked, especially the two old men Chen Bingzhang and Chen Yaohong couldn't help but their faces changed and asked, "Dad, what do you mean by that?" feeling.

And what the old man said in a bland blurb, sure enough... they were all shocked, their faces changed completely, and they were even a little flustered.

Because the old man actually said something like this: "Actually, it's nothing...but it's just that my deadline is up."
