Reborn Shadow Returns

The housekeeper opened the door, and the familiar voice greeted, "Grandpa, I'm back."

After a while, an old man about 70 years old slowly came down from upstairs. Although his hair was gray, he was full of energy and looked very tough.

"You still know that when you come back, you don't stay at home all year round, leaving me, an old man, alone at home, how can your conscience live?"

Lu Chen touched his beating chest, "There is no conscience here."

When the old man heard this, he was about to beat someone with a cane, but Lu Chen kept dodging, "Grandpa, I was wrong, I was wrong, it's New Year's Eve, the last day of the year, so don't beat me up."

"Hmph! Everyone here praises you for being capable and good at doing business, but no one praises you for your filial piety. Why don't you reflect on yourself." The old man sat on the sofa angrily, and became angry when he saw him.

Lu Chen sat on the side, and rubbed his shoulders flatteringly, "Grandpa, look at me, I'm still busy with the company, and I still want to see you. It takes a lot of time to go back and forth."

The old man glared at him, "Time-consuming? You don't waste time when you go out to play every day, but it takes time to look at my old man? What a white-eyed wolf!"

"Or else, you move to my side, so you can see me every day, and I can be filial to you every day?"

"No, it's too noisy."

"Then you come to my company?"

"Too troublesome."

Lu Chen said helplessly, "Then what?"

"Hurry up and marry a daughter-in-law, just give me a great-grandson." The old man finally expressed his purpose.

Lu Chen knew that every time he went home, no matter what conversation he had, it would always involve this.

"I'm not yet thirty, why get married so early!"

"I just want to take a look at my great-grandson. Why, are you going to marry me after I'm in the coffin?"

"Bah, bah, grandpa, what are you talking about, what are you talking about, you are not allowed to say such things in the future!"

The butler came over helplessly to persuade, "The meal is ready, you two, stop arguing, fill your stomach first, and then talk about other things, besides, today is New Year's Eve, and you have to buy things."

There was no one else in the family, just the grandpa and grandson, but at night, a group of people came over.

Seven aunts and eight aunts, cousins ​​from far away, who can almost get acquainted with each other, all came here.

When he was young, Lu Chen's grandfather didn't like these things, and he didn't get together very much, but when he was old, he only thought about the lively and lively family, so in recent years, these people would come to see Lu Chen no matter what happened grandpa.

However, the main goal is still on Lu Chen.

"Lu Chen is really getting better and better. I heard that LR has been expanded this time. He is really a young talent."

"Yes, yes, if our family Lin Lin can learn one or two points, I will be satisfied. Unfortunately, I can't find a job until now."

When Lu Chen heard these voices, he automatically blocked them, as if he didn't hear them.

The old man is the same, he likes to be lively, if these people want to accompany them, they will accompany them, just for the reason of taking benefits?Sorry, not a penny.

"By the way, Lu Chen doesn't have a girlfriend yet, right?" Suddenly a relative who didn't know how many generations had passed asked.

"No, but no need."

"How can that be? A man has a wife. When he comes home from work every day, there are people waiting at home and cooking. How nice it is to be so lively."

These words reached the old man's heart, "Hmph, I don't know how many times I have been urged, but I don't listen, I am too old to say anything."

For some reason, when this aunt said these words, Lin Yuan actually appeared in his mind, but, cook for him when he comes home from get off work?

Don't even think about it.

"It's a little stuffy, I'm going to get some air." He walked straight out of the living room and walked into the garden.

The weather here is much better than that of Blue City, the air is warm and comfortable, the old man just can't stand the cold, so he will come here every winter.

He twirled the lighter in his hand, sat on the wooden stool, stared at the stars in the sky in a daze.

Suddenly, the phone rang, and the corners of his mouth curled up. It must be Lin Yuan. Look, I can't bear it anymore. I have to call him on New Year's Eve.

What if she wants to go there by herself to accompany her?Lu Chen thought a little distressed, otherwise, take her over?At worst, tell the old man that this is his girlfriend?

However, when I picked up the phone, I saw the word "Qi Ming" written on it.

Or video.

Qi Ming watched the other party connected to the video, and just about to send a big blessing, he saw the other party's face was as black as the bottom of a pot, and he was still outside, the street lights were dim, making him look even more terrifying.

"You, who are you? Lu Chen? Are you okay?"

"What do you think?" Lu Chen said in a calm voice.

Qi Ming swallowed, "Well, what, did I disturb you?"

Lu Chen sighed, "No, why did you suddenly think of sending me a video?"

Qi Ming looked at him resentfully, "Have you forgotten, I will send you a video every New Year's Eve!"

Seeing Lu Chen's puzzled expression, Qi Ming's heart ached. Sure enough, he is already an old man!
"Are you outside again? Could it be that a bunch of relatives are here again?" Qi Ming smiled gloatingly.

"Headache."

"Hey, what do you think the old man thinks? If you are free and deserted, you can go directly to the blue city." This whole brother seems to be heroic every time he spends New Year's Eve.

"Who knows, but if he likes it, let him torment it. Anyway, those people can't take anything away."

"That's right, by the way, let me show you my wife."

Before Lu Chen could tell me why I want to see your daughter-in-law, if there is something wrong, he saw Qi Ming's wife greeted him with a smile and a big belly.

"...It's been a few months?"

"It's been seven months!" Qi Ming turned his angle of view to his side again, with a frightened face, "In two or three months, I'm going to be a father, hehehe."

For some reason, Lu Chen suddenly felt a little depressed, and he didn't know why this depression was, maybe it was because Qi Ming had a great life?

Back then, when the two of them went from elementary school to university, and then went abroad to return home, those who didn’t know thought they were brothers, and their relationship was very close, but in the blink of an eye, this brother had a wife and a child, and he was still a bachelor?It wasn't a big deal when we were single together, but suddenly there was such a happy example here, and people couldn't stop thinking about it.

"Okay, you just told me now."

Qi Ming heyed twice, and said a little embarrassedly, "Isn't this afraid of irritating you?" They are all brothers from open crotch pants, he still doesn't know Lu Chen, "I planned to tell you after I was born, but Seeing how mournful you are today, I can't help but want you to be more mournful."

Lu Chen hung up the video with a dark face.

Qi Ming on the other end was laughing wildly, while Lu Chen on the other side looked depressed, why did he seem to be staring at him today.

After thinking about it, he sent a video to Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan was making dumplings with Lin Fang, "Yuan Yuan, your phone is ringing, go and have a look."

Lin Yuan wiped his hands, went to the living room, picked up the phone, and when he saw Lu Chen again, he immediately hung up the phone and turned off the phone. Lin Fang's mother should not know about her and Lu Chen.

"Huh? Why did you come back so soon?" Lin Fang asked.

"A scam call, I hung up."

"These days, fraudulent calls are really hard to guard against," Lin Fang sighed, and then said, "This pork and cabbage is enough, we will pack some others."

"it is good."

Lu Chen looked at the phone in his hand in disbelief, he was actually hung up?Angrily, he called again, but the other party had turned off his phone, which really pissed him off.

Nothing is going well today.

Walking into the room angrily, the living room is still lively.He bypassed these people and walked into the study. Now, all his anger was directed at his work.

After the New Year's Eve dinner, Lin Yuan turned on her phone, and she was relieved to see that Lu Chen called her twice an hour ago and there was no news.

There are also text messages opened by some people. She clicks on them and replies to those who are close to each other. If not, the system will naturally reply.

After finishing these, I will accompany Lin Fang's mother to watch the Spring Festival Gala.

"Yuanyuan, you promised me at the beginning, and you will continue to go to school after two years." Lin Fang stroked her hair, "It has been a year now, you have earned so much money, we will be able to spend the rest of our lives gone."

"Well, I remember it all, Mom."

The two leaned on each other, but in this small room, it was as warm as before.

"What's the matter? She didn't answer?" Qi Rong asked with a frown, "This New Year's Eve, if she doesn't go home, where else can she go?"

Ruan Min sighed, "Why don't you tell her in advance every time?"

"Why, I called her, and she can't be there anytime?"

"Hey, what Lin Yuan did this time is really wrong," Ruan Wei said to Qi Rong, "Look, even if she can't come on New Year's Eve, she still has to say something? What do others think? Our family abused her? You won't come back on New Year's Eve?"

Ruan Min said, "It should be with her adoptive mother."

"Why did she go to her adoptive mother again!" Qi Rong became angry when he mentioned that Lin Fang, "Although she picked up Lin Yuan back then, she should have been sent to the police station, but in the end, she took her back and raised her by herself, and now she is still alive. Do not return the child."

Ruan Min explained, "At the beginning, she was sent to the police station, but the information was not developed at that time. She saw the child for two days and no one claimed it, so she took it back to raise her."

Qi Rong didn't admit that he was wrong, "So what, she couldn't give birth on her own, so she did it on purpose. She must have partnered with the police to get that child to her."

Seeing that the explanation was not clear, Ruan Min simply didn't say a word.

Ruan Wei comforted in a low voice, the New Year's Eve dinner was not at all satisfactory.

After eating, Ruan Min didn't want to stay at home for a moment, so he put on his coat, "I'll go to the company."

"What are you doing at the company on New Year's Eve?" Qi Rong asked in a daze.

"It's because I'm going to go there now, and some employees are working overtime. How can my boss have the nerve to rest at home."

Ruan Min left, and Qi Rong said angrily, "Look at you, one or two know that they are thinking of outsiders, what's wrong with those employees working overtime, it seems like they don't pay overtime pay, besides, it's only natural for them to work overtime , if you don’t work well in the company, how can you buy a house or a car and gain a foothold here!”

"Okay, mom, don't be angry." Ruan Wei coaxed her softly.

Ruan Min left home, but did not go to the company, but went to a private house of his own.

As soon as the door was opened, warm and fragrant nephrite filled her arms.

"Aren't you celebrating New Year's Eve at home today? Why are you here?" Without waiting for Ruan Min to speak, she said again, "It just so happens that I made dumplings, and there are a few more that you come over to taste, they are reserved for you. "Sensible and considerate, not at all like that crazy woman, who knows to complain about this and that all day long.

At night, when the bell rang at twelve o'clock, Lin Yuan's cell phone started ringing again.

Sleepily, she reached for the phone and looked at it. It was Qiu Ji?

She hung up, and soon the other party called again, she picked up, "Why, you didn't accompany your fiancée in the first second of the new year, but called me instead?"

"I just miss you, don't care what she does."

Lin Yuan sat up, with a sarcastic smile on her face, because she remembered that in her previous life, on the New Year's Eve after the two of them got engaged, she watched the time and called at twelve o'clock, but the other party was on the phone middle.

Presumably at that time, he had already hooked up with Ruan Wei.

It's just that in this life, the two roles have been switched, but it doesn't mean that Ruan Wei is so affectionate and will go to watch the time to call Qiu Ji.

"But Mr. Qiu, you disturbed my sleep. Don't you know that this kind of behavior is annoying?"

"It's better to hate people than to ignore them." Qiu Ji didn't take her disgust to heart at all.

On the first day of the new year, Lin Yuan didn't want to get too entangled with Qiu Ji, "Mr. Qiu had better be a little bit self-aware. I don't like you like this. When you surpass Si Yan and Lu Chen, come find me again." Me." After finishing speaking, he turned off the phone and fell asleep.

Qiu Ji almost dropped his phone angrily.

It's Lu Chen again, why is there him everywhere, the elders used to compare him, but now he is compared with the women he likes, and there is also a banquet, he is not worse than looks, he is not worse than rich, so why should he be compared? The two of them pulled together to compare?Could it be because he doesn't play with women?snort! "Lin Yuan, you still want to host a banquet. His family is upright, so he won't let a woman from the entertainment industry like you in." What are you thinking.

When I woke up, the sun outside had already shone warmly in, making the room even warmer.

"Mom?" She opened the door after washing, but Lin Fang was not there, "Mom?" Where did she go?Early in the morning.

She turned on her phone and just sent Lin Fang a message when the door opened.
