Fan Keqin continued: "As the saying goes, guarding against others is indispensable. In this way, there is no harm in it."
"Hey, that's what I mean." The boy's father nodded, feeling a bit like a teachable child, and said: "So Aheng, before I leave, tell me what happened yesterday and the circumstances before and after. Talk about it. It’s best to start talking when you’re leaving home. Did you take the initiative to take a peaceful ride because it was along the way? "
"That's not true." Fan Keqin said, "It was Ping He who took the initiative to see me off. I was saying goodbye to Feifei at the time. Ping He said he was on his way and would see me back."
"Yeah." After hearing this, the boy's father pondered for a moment and asked, "Then what?"
Fan Keqin said: "Then we went out, got in the car, drove out of the yard, and drove all the way towards my house. But on the way, we encountered this thing. At that time, we were chatting. First we heard an explosion, and then we saw A car turned out of the intersection in front of us very quickly. Our car kept going forward, but before we could pass the intersection, two people ran out of the intersection with both hands in their hands. He held a gun and robbed us in the middle of the road..."
Fan Keqin told the boy's father what happened yesterday and what happened after going to No. 76 today. After hearing this, the boy's father pondered again for a moment, then took a puff of his cigar and asked again: "Then before the incident happened, you didn't stop the car on the way?"
"No." Fan Keqin said, "Father, do you think...it was arranged peacefully?"
"Hey." The boy's father waved his hand and said, "I just want to make sure, that's all."
Just as he was talking about this, Tong Fei had already walked in and said: "Dad, Ah Heng, come on, come over and eat quickly, it will get cold in a while."
The boy's father put out his cigar and said: "Well, okay, let's have a taste. You haven't tried Feifei's cooking yet. I won't talk about other dishes, but this shrimp and big black ginseng dish will definitely win over her mother." It’s a true biography. If I haven’t eaten for a while, I can’t help but miss it.”
Fan Keqin followed him out and said, "Well, I have to taste it later."
Tong Fei smiled and said: "It seems that I am a poor cook."
The child's father said: "Isn't it bad?"
Tong Fei said: "...Oops, okay. But there is a reason. I basically haven't cooked other dishes, so of course I can't do it well."
The child's father said: "Yes, yes, that's what it is."
While talking, the three of them had already arrived at the dining room, picked up the food, and started eating. Fan Keqin still has the same attitude, showing timidity. Showing a little timidity when eating will make people feel closer to him more easily.
After finishing the meal and chatting with the boy's father for a while, it was almost time. The luggage and other things you need to bring have already been packed and loaded into the car by the servants. The group came out, got in the car and left.
When we arrived at the train station, there were not many trains and it was time to board the train. A few people had a brief conversation. Fan Keqin and Tong Fei sent his father to the train, and then watched the train slowly move on the platform. Miss Tong While waving to the window where the child's father was, she shed tears.
When the train started to move, it was almost out of sight. Fan Keqin patted Tong Fei on the shoulder and said: "Don't worry, Uncle Tong is going to work, and it's not like he won't come back. Maybe he can come back for a visit during the New Year." , or we can go here.”
After saying this, Tong Fei looked at Fan Keqin with a smile on her face and said, "Husband, daddy is gone. I will go home with you to pack your things. You can move in with me as soon as possible."
"Good guy." Fan Keqin said with a smile: "Are you worried about this? You are so perverted!"
"Bah." Tong Fei said, still smiling: "I just like to be with you." After saying that, she reached out to hold Fan Keqin's arm, led him forward, and said: "Come on, let's go pack things." ...Forget it, there’s no need to clean it up, there’s nothing missing at home anyway.”
Fan Keqin looked at Tong Fei with a smile and said, "Oh, you can't wait anymore? I can't wait too. It's close to my apartment. Let's go to my place to make out for a while, and then go back."
"Oh, what are you talking about?" Tong Fei hugged her tighter and said, "I can go to your apartment. I just want to bring a few of your coats."
Fan Keqin sighed: "Well, someone doesn't admit it, but his steps are in a hurry. Okay, I will suffer a little loss, and we will walk."
When they got home, the two of them were resting after playing around. Fan Keqin couldn't help but think of the boy's father's words. Before leaving today, he specifically asked himself what happened yesterday, and he asked in detail. What does it mean?
Fan Keqin felt that, first of all, the boy's father wanted to be on guard. This is just like letting others go. Second, the boy's father has a political enemy, and the two are competing with each other. But the boy's father is now the deputy minister of the Ministry of Finance, so he should obviously be the victor. In other words, he has an advantage. Otherwise, how could he be promoted? Third, the boy's father was promoted because of his promotion, and he was a veteran in officialdom, so when he was just promoted, he would naturally be extra careful and pay more attention to everything.
As for the boy's father, after he leaves, will there be anyone in Shanghai who wants to deal with his daughter and son-in-law? Fan Keqin felt that it shouldn't be the case, otherwise the boy's father would have reminded him. There is no need to be sophisticated about this kind of thing, just say it directly. In the end, he just asked about his situation and then left. And the words he said before asking him about the ins and outs of the matter sounded like he was reminding himself to be on guard, but in fact it was more like a realization. Even if he didn't remind himself explicitly, it was impossible for Tong Fei and Tong's father to be blind to what he said.
This is easy to understand. When you talk to others, you may make eighteen turns. But when it comes to matters that require caution, would you still go around in such a roundabout way when talking to your daughter?
If there is danger, he must tell his daughter directly. For example, you must be careful after I leave, especially if something happens in the business world. If you can use my contacts, try not to use them lightly... It must be such clear words. It is impossible to say: Oh, life is like a pot of soup. If the chef wants to make the stew delicious, he must control the heat at all times... If he talks like this to his own daughter, he is sick. My own daughter didn't realize that if something really happened, she wouldn't have a place to cry.
Therefore, although Fan Keqin is the prospective son-in-law of the Tong family, he is not yet married. Strictly speaking, he cannot be considered a member of the Tong family. But my relationship with Tong Fei, for my daughter...
