林玉婷停止了噘嘴,等着楚天解释他为什么不回来.
楚天咬了一口鸡腿,微微环顾四周,然后神秘地说道:"昨晚,我赚了1.3亿.
1.3 亿元?
林玉婷瞪大了像锣一样大.她显然没有反应.片刻后,她眼中闪过惊慌的神色,终于惊呼道:"你是怎么赚这么多钱的?你抢劫了银行吗?那是非法的!
楚天赶紧吃了几口米饭.看到林玉婷焦急的表情,他简单地告诉了她自己意想不到的三-大-伯父,以及他三-大-伯父寻找继承人的事情.林玉婷越听越兴奋.她完全忘了深挖楚天昨晚为什么没有回来.在她眼里,楚天毫无疑问能继承到他三——大——伯父的资产.楚天的能力,智慧,技巧都是显而易见的.楚欣欣怎么可能有机会与他较量?林玉婷甚至开始想,如果楚天真的继承了资产,她怎么能帮他花钱.买海边别墅?豪车?还是衣服和鞋子?
楚天自言自语地笑了笑.他终于成功地分散了这个女孩的注意力.看着她兴奋的眼神,他猜她大概是在计算怎么花这连还没得到的那一亿三千万元的财富.
他们正吃着饭的时候,江胖子又端来了他的特产——熟食.楚天毫不客气地从江胖子的碗里拿起鱼,肉,鸡腿,放进自己的碗里,说道:"胖子,你已经这么胖了.你怎么还吃那么多肉?
江胖子看着楚天狠狠的举动,一脸痛苦的说道:"老兄,给我留点吧.如果我不吃肉,我连回家的力气都没有.
楚天坚定道:"不可能.我整个上午都忙得不可开交,几乎被那些父母逼到了极限.我不值得得到一些营养吗?
江胖子一脸焦急.突然,他想到了一件完全无关的事情.在绝望的尝试中,他说:"伙计,我告诉你一件奇怪的事情.如果你觉得这很有趣,你能不能停止吃我的鸡?
楚天停下了筷子,林玉婷也回过神来.八卦是人的本性,没有人能抗拒.于是两人异口同声地说:"告诉我们!
江胖子喃喃自语道:"他们真的像一对,甚至说话都很和谐.
江胖子整理了一下思绪,开始谈论与他碗里的肉有关的事情.他说:"昨天我路过东街的时候,看到一个盲老在弹二胡.
林玉婷用筷子敲了敲她的饭碗,不耐烦地说道:"赶紧告诉我们.不要让我们悬念重重.否则,你中午就吃不了肉了.
Realizing he couldn't hold back any longer, Fatty Jiang blurted it out, "Well, beggars are normal, but the problem is that the blind old man's bowl was full of 100 - yuan bills, at least a dozen of them."
Chu Tian and Lin Yuting looked at each other and said in unison again, "All 100 - yuan bills?" It was indeed a bit strange. If that was the case, wasn't it too easy for this blind old man playing the erhu to make money? Just hanging around on the street could bring in such a high income.
Fatty Jiang raised two fingers, making a gesture of swearing to the sky, and said, "It's absolutely true!"
Lin Yuting made some comments and then didn't think much of it. She even gave Fatty Jiang her fish head. Fatty Jiang was extremely grateful.
However, Chu Tian became interested. He had a natural inclination to explore things that didn't make sense. He thought to himself that he should find some time to go and take a look.
In the evening, Chu Tian and Lin Yuting returned to the Wangyou Tavern. Perhaps because the wine in the Wangyou Tavern was so intoxicating, there were already some customers at this time. Several waiters were shuttling back and forth, moving between the bar and the customers. When Chu Tian and Lin Yuting went upstairs, a table full of steaming hot food was waiting for them. Sister Mei was still busy in the kitchen. When she saw Chu Tian and Lin Yuting coming back, she smiled slightly and said, "Brother, I'll warm this bottle of wine for you, and then we can have dinner."
Chu Tian walked into the kitchen, put his arms around Sister Mei's waist, and said with a smile, "Sister's cooking always smells so good. Only sister really cares about me."
Lin Yuting also ran in. She completely ignored the intimate moment between Chu Tian and Sister Mei. She already knew in her heart that there was no possibility between Sister Mei and Chu Tian, so she didn't bother to be jealous. Besides, Sister Mei always taught her how to please Chu Tian. Lin Yuting also hugged Chu Tian from behind and said, "Sister Mei, do you know that you're being hugged by a billionaire, and I'm also hugging a billionaire with 130 million yuan in assets."
Sister Mei was clearly startled. Why would Lin Yuting say such a thing? She picked up the wine bottle, put it on the plate, slapped Chu Tian's hand away gently, and said softly, "Yuting, what 130 - million - yuan thing are you talking about?"
Lin Yuting let go of Chu Tian and jumped around, running as she repeated what Chu Tian had told her. Sister Mei looked at Chu Tian's expression and didn't show too much excitement. She sighed inwardly. Her brother was an outstanding person. Facing such a huge fortune, he was so calm. If it were someone else, they would have been spreading the news all over the world, causing a huge commotion, and then doing everything possible to obtain that wealth, perhaps even hiring someone to kill for it.
Sister Mei ladled a bowl of soup for Chu Tian and said calmly, "Brother, do you plan to compete with Chu Xinxin?"
Lin Yuting looked at Sister Mei in surprise, a bit puzzled. Usually, Sister Mei was so smart. How couldn't she see this? She said, "Is there even a need to compete? Marshal's strength is obvious."
Sister Mei smiled and said, "Brother is worried that if he takes that wealth, he might lose the last bit of family affection. Chu Xinxin's family can hate brother to the core, but brother can't completely cut off the ties of kinship."
Chu Tian sighed and said, "Sister is quite right. Originally, I didn't care much either. 130 million yuan is nothing in my eyes. I believe I can have even more in the future. But Chu Xinxin's mother and her family have made things difficult for me several times, showing me their narrow - minded side. If this money were in their hands, God knows what kind of trouble they might cause. So rather than that, I might as well compete for it. Even if I donate it all to those in need, I'd feel much better. Even if Chu Xinxin's family really hates me from now on and our family affection is broken, I won't have any regrets."
Lin Yuting looked at Chu Tian with approval. This was the man she loved and the man she admired.
Sister Mei nodded. What Chu Tian said was right. Money itself is not evil, but different people using it can lead to different results. So she nodded and said, "Brother, sister supports you."
"Boom!" A loud thunderclap sounded in the distance. Sister Mei said to herself, "It's going to rain. I wonder if the blind old man on East Street is still playing the erhu?"
Chu Tian's heart skipped a beat. His chopsticks paused slightly. How did Sister Mei know about the blind old man on East Street?
At the entrance of East Street in this city, a blind man was struggling to play the erhu. A soul - stirring piece of "Farewell My Concubine" resounded in the wind and rain. A dozen 100 - yuan bills were scattered messily in the plate.
No one knew, not even Chu Tian himself, that in a few days, this blind man, who seemed worlds apart from him, would meet and get to know him, bringing earth - shattering changes to his future life.
