Chapter 1152: Memories That Belonged to the Two People
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
Zhou Tianxiang listened to the advice from his daughter and Yang Ming and called his wife.
Mother Zhou was actually not as tough as she looked. After such a thing happened, she would be overwhelmed too, just like when Zhou Jiajia was shot.
This allowed Yang Ming to see Mother Zhou from another angle. She wasn’t the President Hua who talked to him at the beginning, but a wife and a mother.
From the beginning, Yang Ming didn’t really hate Mother Zhou’s attitude. He also understood the feeling as a parent, like Old Charles who was concerned about his children.
At that time, Yang Ming wasn’t that outstanding. It was reasonable that Mother Zhou didn’t want Zhou Jiajia to be with him. After all, Zhou Jiajia was a girl who was blessed by gods, was perfect and a proud person in the eyes of many people.
And Yang Ming was just an ordinary person in the eyes of outsiders at the time. Of course, he proved his strength later, and when Mother Zhou sincerely handed her daughter over to him, Yang Ming still felt a little proud.
“Wife, it’s me.” Zhou Tianxiang’s phone dialed Mother Zhou. Zhou Tianxiang’s voice was somewhat emotional as if he had gone through life and death, but it was indeed the case. If Yang Ming didn’t appear, no one knows how the matter would have ended. Would I die in a strange land?
“Tianxiang! Are you okay?” Mother Zhou had been sitting there until now, doing nothing. She didn’t even have the mood to deal with the company’s matters. Now she heard Zhou Tianxiang’s voice and asked quickly.
“It’s okay; everything is over!” Zhou Tianxiang said with a smile, “I didn’t expect Yang Ming to be a partner of Old Charles…”
“Partner?” Mother Zhou was also startled. Although Yang Ming’s strength in Song Jiang had shocked her, she never imagined that Yang Ming had business with Old Charles. But the other party was the assassin group, right?
“Yeah, I didn’t think of it.” Zhou Tianxiang said, “The result is that when Yang Ming said that he wanted to suspend cooperation, then Old Charles’ attitude changed immediately… To be honest, this is the first time I saw him speaking with someone in such a humble tone…”
“Is this all true?” Mother Zhou was a little surprised. “Is Little Yang so powerful?”
When Mother Zhou said this, she also remembered the previous time she went to school to find Yang Ming to make him leave Zhou Jiajia, and she immediately blushed.
“Now, I am in his car. Maybe I will be back in a few days,” said Zhou Tianxiang.
“That’s great. Tell Little Yang that I will cook for him personally after he comes back!” Mother Zhou said happily.
” Hehe , okay, I will tell him!” Zhou Tianxiang was also very happy. After all, his family was finally able to reunite. There was nothing better than this.
Hanging up the phone, Zhou Tianxiang was still rejoicing in the joy and excitement of reuniting with his family. Yang Ming smiled. In fact, sometimes, life is as simple as that.
For what I do now, isn’t my ultimate goal to live with my loved ones?
“Where are we going now?” Zhou Tianxiang finally returned to reality from the joy. After all, this was Europe. They couldn’t just simply go back to their own country just like that. They needed some time to deal with some formalities.
“Let’s stay at my friend’s house for a few days, then I will let him arrange a series of procedures for you to go back.” Yang Ming said, “But this time, I can’t go back with you. I still have some private matters to do.”
“No problem.” Zhou Tianxiang nodded. In his opinion, people like Yang Ming must be very busy every day. They couldn’t stay at home all the time. Since he had a cooperation with Old Charles, then he would definitely have more cooperative relationships with others. So, it was normal for him to run around the world. “Will I trouble your friend?”
“How do I explain this…” Yang Ming hesitated. But thinking that Zhou Tianxiang would definitely stay at Old Buffon’s house for a while, if he didn’t tell him the truth, Old Buffon and his wife would inevitably expose it, so he simply told him. “In fact, he is not my friend; he is one of my disciples!”
“Disciples?” Zhou Tianxiang was stunned suddenly.
“I know some ancestral martial arts, hehe .” Yang Ming shifted the origin of his martial arts to the ancestors.
” Oh , it turns out to be that!” Zhou Tianxiang was the one who was the assassin family’s butler. He wasn’t unfamiliar with things like Kung Fu, and martial arts, so he didn’t have much doubt. He believed what Yang Ming said.
“So, Uncle Zhou, you don’t have to worry about it. Just treat it as your own home.” Yang Ming smiled and said, “There is a saying that the teacher is like a father. This is the truth. He is very respectful of me.”
Zhou Tianxiang nodded. He knew that in a real master-apprentice relationship, the apprentice was usually very respectful to the master.
The three-hour drive soon passed, and Yang Ming finally returned to Old Buffon’s manor on the outskirts. Here, they could already see some of the guard soldiers, but these people obviously knew Old Buffon’s car, and they also knew Yang Ming who was driving the vehicle, so they didn’t block Yang Ming. Yang Ming was unimpeded all the way.
“Where is this place? Why are the guards so strict?” Zhou Tianxiang was somewhat curious about the identity of Yang Ming’s disciple because the security here was no less than the castle of Old Charles!
” Hehe , this is the private estate of my disciple. Usually, outsiders aren’t allowed to enter, but they all recognize me and this car.” Yang Ming smiled and explained.
” Oh , that’s the case.” Zhou Tianxiang nodded after listening. He was more certain that the owner’s identity wasn’t average.
Soon, Yang Ming’s car drove into the villa group of Old Buffon in the center of the estate. Old Buffon apparently got a notice from the guard at the door. He greeted at the door early. When he saw Yang Ming’s car arrive, he welcomed excitedly, “Master, welcome back safely!”
Zhou Tianxiang was shocked. He didn’t expect Yang Ming’s disciple to be a foreigner! Moreover, his Chinese was actually so fluent; there wasn’t any pause at all!
Old Buffon also saw Zhou Tianxiang who was next to Yang Ming at this time. He was slightly shocked too. His face changed. He was afraid that Yang Ming would scold him for being careless, just now. After all, Yang Ming instructed him that he shouldn’t call Yang Ming as master in front of outsiders.
Yang Ming also saw Old Buffon’s embarrassment at the moment, so he smiled slightly and then said, “Old Buffon, he is one of our own people. My girlfriend’s father, Zhou Tianxiang…”
“Hi, Mr. Zhou, nice to meet you!” Although Old Buffon didn’t know which girlfriend Zhou Tianxiang was the father of, since he was the father of one of the master’s wives, he should be especially respectful!
“Hi, you are…” Yang Ming just said the name, Old Buffon, but Zhou Tianxiang did not hear it too clearly.
“I am the great disciple of Mr. Yang, Buffon XXXX…” After saying a bunch of names, Old Buffon said, “But everyone is used to calling me Old Buffon!”
“Old Buffon… you are the Buffon Family’s…” Zhou Tianxiang was shocked when he heard Old Buffon. He stayed in Europe for so many years, so he naturally heard of Old Buffon’s name!
Although the Buffon Family and the Charles Family were two different families, they belonged to the top families. The Buffon Family was much stronger than the Charles Family. In many countries in Europe, it had many extraordinary connections. Even some presidents of some countries must be supported by the Buffon Family before they could take office!
The patriarch of such a powerful family is actually the disciple of Yang Ming? This is too amazing, right? If this is the case, it wasn’t a surprise that Old Charles’ attitude toward Yang Ming just now was like that!
The patriarch of the Buffon family is respectful to Yang Ming. What qualifications do you Old Charles have to be arrogant in front of Yang Ming? Of course, what Zhou Tianxiang didn’t know was that Yang Ming used two different means and policies for Old Buffon and for Old Charles. Old Buffon was respectful of Yang Ming sincerely, and Old Charles was more about the benefits.
” Hehe , I am the patriarch of the Buffon Family!” Old Buffon replied, letting Zhou Tianxiang affirmed his thoughts. This Yang Ming is too unfathomable!
In the evening, under the warm hospitality of Old Buffon, Zhou Tianxiang was arranged to live in a separate small villa. Zhou Tianxiang didn’t expect that one day he would receive such a high-standard reception from Old Buffon, which made him somewhat flattered and proud.
At this moment, his mentality had finally changed. He was no longer the butler who was always humble. His current status was Yang Ming’s father-in-law, a person that made even people like Old Charles and Old Buffon respect him.
Back at the residence, Zhou Tianxiang quickly dialed the phone of Mother Zhou again. Because Yang Ming was present before, they couldn’t talk much. Now there were no outsiders. They still had a lot of private conversations to catch up on.
After all, they didn’t see each other for a long time, and after this disaster, their relationship was closer. This kind of feeling was spiritual, regardless of distance and place…
At this moment, Yang Ming sat in front of the computer again and sent an invitation to video chat with Chen Mengyan and the others.
Of course, Yang Ming was just simply making a joke about having a sex video with Zhou Jiajia. Yang Ming naturally wouldn’t do such a filthy thing.
Although they knew that Yang Ming was safe long ago, they only truly felt relieved after seeing Yang Ming through the online video.
“Yang Ming, thank you!” Zhou Jiajia said, very sincerely.
“Thank me for what? What is there to thank for a family member?” Yang Ming smiled. “And, I said that it was just a simple matter.”
“Yang Ming, how many things are you hiding from us?” Chen Mengyan was happy, but there was a little depression in her heart. She felt that Yang Ming was getting farther and farther away from her. Now Yang Ming was no longer the bad student who always thought of skipping classes and arguing with her during high school, but an overbearing man who couldn’t be more powerful.
There were always miracles happening around him – from the beginning when he was poor until now he had hundreds of millions in wealth, from the initial small gangsters until now he could be at the same level with the current celebrities in the world, and even above them!
And it took only a year to… or, it took only half a year.
In Yang Ming’s family, no one knew better than Chen Mengyan. Chen Mengyan also read Yang Ming’s file. Yang Ming’s father was previously an ordinary worker at the bus factory, and his mother was a laid-off worker. This kind of poor family was very common!
However, one year later, Yang Ming’s father, Yang Dahai, became the chairman of the board of Ming Yang Heavy Industry Group; his mother also became the manager of the community property company.
Although Chen Mengyan didn’t pay much attention to business news, she knew how prosperous Ming Yang Heavy Industry Group was occasionally from the tone of her parents’ chats. Not only did it provide OEM auto parts for many auto companies, but it also independently developed civilian helicopters. She also heard that many parts of Asia had given orders to Ming Yang, and even some of the rich people from the Middle Eastern countries that were rich in petroleum had chosen helicopters produced by Ming Yang Heavy Industries. This explained the super strength of Ming Yang Heavy Industry.
If someone said that Yang Ming had no part in all this, Chen Mengyan wouldn’t believe it. She also met Yang Ming’s parents before, and Yang Ming’s parents also gradually changed their honest characters after they became leaders.
Therefore, all these changes were not from the efforts of Yang Ming’s parents, but the efforts of Yang Ming!
In the past, when Chen Mengyan and Yang Ming were together, although she didn’t intend to look down on Yang Ming, she also had some superior feelings of being a little princess. After all, she studied well, she was beautiful, and she had a good family background.
At the very least, she was much better than Yang when they were in high school!
But now, Chen Mengyan didn’t have such a feeling at all. The speed of Yang Ming’s development was really too terrifying. Chen Mengyan didn’t see what Yang Ming was busy with, but Yang Ming’s vast powerful social network was formed one by one.
Just like this time regarding the confrontation with the Charles Family. According to Zhou Jiajia, Yang Ming just went to threaten Old Charles that he was going to stop the cooperation, then Old Charles immediately swallowed his pride and talked humbly to a butler he once had. This was enough to show that Yang Ming wasn’t the same.
Therefore, as Chen Mengyan said this sentence, “How many things are you hiding from us?” her heart was still aggrieved, just like a child who had lost her most beloved toy…
Although this toy had not been lost, it was getting farther and farther away from her…
Only Chen Mengyan could deeply understand this kind of feeling; Lin Zhiyun and Zhou Jiajia wouldn’t have such a feeling…
Chen Mengyan didn’t want anything luxurious. She just hoped that after many years, in Yang Ming’s heart, she was still the girl that was important to him… At the very least, he could still remember those memories that once belonged to them only…
Once, during Grade 12, in that Spring, at the movie theater, the one that used to be… That Yang Ming who belonged to her only… The memories of the blushing heartbeat…
Although Chen Mengyan was angry at the beginning that Yang Ming had deceived her… but now, in retrospect, this had become a wonderful piece of memory…
For a time, Chen Mengyan was a little absent-minded…
“Mengyan, what’s the matter?” Yang Ming felt that Chen Mengyan seemed a little sad. Chen Mengyan’s changes in expression naturally couldn’t escape Yang Ming’s eyes, but something that surprised Yang Ming happened!
I can see what Chen Mengyan is thinking! Through the network, through the optic fiber in the sea, I can still see the mind of Chen Mengyan!
Could it be that my ability to see other people’s thoughts isn’t constrained by space and distance? Even if the portrait in front of me is just a digital expression, I can still see her thoughts?
After Yang Ming knew Chen Mengyan’s thoughts, he felt slightly amused in his heart. This girl has too much doubt. In this life, she is already destined to occupy a large portion of my heart.
Only after Yang Ming called Chen Mengyan several times did she regain her consciousness.
” Ah …” Chen Mengyan regained her consciousness and smiled apologetically. Lin Zhiyun and Zhou Jiajia were still around. She needed to be a good role model, so she smiled and said, “Nothing, I’m just thinking about how to punish you after you come back.”
” Hehe , really? I thought you were going to ask me to go to the movies alone after I go back…” Yang Ming smiled.
” Ah !” Chen Mengyan blushed as if her thoughts were being pointed out. “You… what are you talking about…”
All of a sudden, Chen Mengyan, who had forced herself to calm down, became incoherent… How did Yang Ming know that I was thinking about the incident we had in the cinema? How did he know?
Did he see something? It’s impossible… I can’t write my thoughts on my face… Could he have just said it casually? En, very likely!
Thinking of this, Chen Mengyan calmed down a bit. “What do you want to do in the cinema? Watch some 3D blockbuster?”
“The movie doesn’t matter… The key is who I’m watching it with… Right, bring your windbreaker also… You can cover yourself when you are cold…” Yang Ming said naturally.
Zhou Jiajia and Lin Zhiyun naturally didn’t know Yang Ming’s hidden meaning. They thought that he was having a normal conversation with Chen Mengyan, so they didn’t care, but Chen Mengyan’s face became redder as if she had a fever!
She didn’t know how she was exposed and how Yang Ming could read her thoughts! Now, she could be completely sure that Yang Ming knew about it!
Otherwise, why would he say to go to the movies and bring the windbreaker… he must have thought of that matter…
Could the legendary telepathy between couples be true? Thinking of this, Chen Mengyan was a little happy again… She wasn’t bothered about being ashamed, and she nodded very happily. “Okay, this is what you said. After you come back, you must accompany me to watch a movie!”
” En , then definitely…” Yang Ming smiled strangely and made Chen Mengyan more and more sure that Yang Ming must have thought of the same thing as her.
“Then you talk to Jiajia first. I… will go to watch TV. My favorite TV show just started.” Chen Mengyan suddenly felt embarrassed, and she ran away hurriedly from the computer, but, indeed, the food show that she watched every day was about to begin.
