Even though he has taken office as the head of state of the Japanese Alliance and has become the spokesperson of the latest force in the solar system, Qu Liang still cannot help but feel resentful towards Ding Baoxiang, an old colleague and neighbor in the past.
When I was the frame director, you, Ding Baoxiang, was just a maintenance worker. When I became the factory director, I immediately promoted you to workshop director! I took my relatives and friends to Ceres to lead you, Ding Baoxiang, to a prosperous career, but you actually ran away halfway!
Do you think I will be harmful to you? Will I cheat you?
Or do you think there is no future for you to develop with me?
If it weren't for Chu Di's matter, he really planned to ignore Ding Baoxiang for the rest of his life. When the day comes when the Japanese alliance unifies the solar system, we will see what kind of face you, Ding Baoxiang, will look like!
Therefore, even if the current situation forced him to contact Ding Baoxiang, he spoke with some complaints.
Qu Liang complained about Ding Baoxiang, but he didn't know that Ding Baoxiang's family was upset.
These days, Ding Baoxiang and Mi Qian have been quarreling. If the couple hadn't jointly incurred more than a dozen huge debts, turning them into grasshoppers on the same line, the couple would have divorced long ago.
Since the beginning of the Earth Age, Ding Baoxiang and Mi Qian have been "old people" with serious bad credit reports. They have been "highly restricted" by the government, which has not been lifted to this day.
When Ding Junchao was still young, the couple borrowed multiple loans from several banks and some private individuals in order to make a lot of money. However, the business failed to take off and they were heavily in debt.
But as the saying goes, if you have too many lice, you won’t feel bitten. If you have been in debt for a long time, the couple will not take it seriously. Anyway, after the anti-mafia campaign, loan sharks no longer dare to hire mafia, and banks can’t offload it. One arm and one leg. Just limit the height. Just don’t take high-speed trains or planes.
The reason for the couple's recent quarrel happened to be related to Qu Liang and Chu Di.
Mi Qian complained that Ding Baoxiang did not hold on to Qu Liang's thigh tightly, so that he missed the opportunity to reach the sky in one step. Every day, she pestered Ding Baoxiang to call Qu Liang and ask him to join the Japanese alliance.
Mi Qian plausibly said: Mr. Qu single-handedly promoted you to the deputy factory level. If you had followed him and he became the head of state, even if he did not promote you to be the Minister of Defense, he would still give you the posts of Minister of Finance and Minister of Machinery. Damn it, why did you lose your chain when you trembled at the last time?
Ding Baoxiang was extremely aggrieved and said that when he followed the Zhiyuan mothership to the edge of the asteroid belt, wasn't it your idea to go to the golden asteroid? Why is it all on me now?
Mi Qian said it was true that I was going to the golden asteroid, but you don’t have to go with me! Did I force you to go with me? You don’t understand the fineness of gold...
Ding Baoxiang couldn't argue, so he brought up the matter of Chu Di: Chu Di, a talented young man with a promising future, fell into our family, but you didn't know how to cherish it. As a result, he not only went to Zhiyun Military Academy, but also lived outside and never came back. Now He became a hero against aliens, why shouldn't he become an officer when he came back? The regimental leaders are all young, at least they can be division commanders. We could have followed him and benefited from it, but now we can’t do it!
As for Mi Qian asking him to call Qu Liang, of course he didn't know how to do it. He lectured Mi Qian in turn, "Do you know what it means to call Qu Liang? This is called being a traitor! We didn't wait until the time came. Mars will be torn apart by his neighbors! My son is still at Zhiyun Military Academy. If you don’t think about me, you should think about your son!”
In the war between the couple, Ding Baoxiang had gradually gained the upper hand, but the situation changed after Dimeng TV Station broadcast the news about "Double Opening" Chu Di.
Mi Qian immediately pulled back, "Look, this is what you said about a bright future. Fortunately, he didn't stay in our house for too long, otherwise, we would both be caught now!"
The couple was quarreling fiercely when Qu Liang's call came in.
When Ding Baoxiang looked at the caller ID on his personal terminal, he was stunned and didn't dare to answer it. However, the call in his personal terminal was set up for call forwarding. As long as he didn't answer the call for 5 seconds, it would immediately be transferred to Mi Qian's personal terminal— —This is what Mi Qian forcibly requested, in order to prevent him from having an extramarital affair.
When Mi Qian looked at the caller ID, she was overjoyed. After answering the call, she heard Qu Liang's slightly complaining greeting and said quickly: "Brother Qu, this is Mi Qian. I am educating Lao Ding. I asked him to follow." You do it, he doesn’t dare…”
How could Qu Liang have the time to pay attention to this matter? He avoided the topic and directly asked the business: "I remember that your family Chaochao said that Chu Di was his cousin. What kind of relative is Chu Di? He comes and goes. Five clothes?"
At this moment, what Qu Liang was thinking was that as long as Chu Di was a close relative of Ding Baoxiang and Mi Qian, he would let Xiao Boran arrest their family first.
Although Chu Di went to Qu Liang's home last fall, Qu Liang didn't take Chu Di seriously at all. At that time, he was more concerned about Ding Junchao and Tieshuhua.
However, one moment later, Chu Di has become a thorn in the side of the Three-Eyed God, and is an enemy that takes priority over Long Yaojing. In addition, inspired by Xiao Boran, he finally remembered to check with Ding Mi and his wife.
Mi Qian had also watched the live broadcast of the Europa Arena, so she naturally knew that Chu Di and Qu Liang were sworn enemies, and said, "How are we related? He thought I was related to his family, but in fact we were old neighbors in the past."
Qu Liang asked doubtfully: "That's not right. Old Ding has always lived next door to my family. Why didn't I know that there was someone named Chu in the neighborhood?"
Mi Qian said: "You are right, there is no one named Chu in your family, but I am talking about my natal family, not Lao Ding's family. Of course you don't know. And Chu Di's father is not surnamed Chu either. "
Qu Liang suddenly said: "So that's what happened. So what is Chu Di's father's surname? And who his mother is, tell me."
Mi Qian said: "His father's surname is Huang, Huang Qinglin. He was a chef. He died a long time ago. His mother's name is Chu Ling. She has been missing for more than ten years."
Qu Liang's heart skipped a beat when he heard the name "Chu Ling". It couldn't be the same name, right? Then he asked: "His father's surname is Huang, why is his mother's surname Chu? Where did his mother work and why did she disappear?"
Mi Qian said: "I really don't know where Chu Ling worked in the past. When she married into Lao Huang's house, I had just married Lao Ding and lived in my husband's house. How could I have time to inquire about the new daughter-in-law of my neighbor over there? But I know that she later divorced Lao Huang, and I guess it was because of this Chu Di that she took the surname Chu..."
At this point, Mi Qian's expression became mysterious, and she lowered her voice and said, "I suspect that Chu Di is not Lao Huang's biological child, because Chu Ling had already divorced Lao Huang when she was pregnant with Chu Di. I remember that I was still surprised at that time. Hey, why is a woman who has been divorced for more than a year pregnant again?"
Qu Liang was not interested in Mi Qian's gossip and asked, "Then why Chu Ling disappeared, you haven't told her yet."
Mi Qian hesitated and said: "Speaking of Chu Ling's disappearance, it has something to do with the house where my family lives. I only remember that it was the summer of the fifth year of Galaxy, when the owner of Central Garden repossessed the building, Chu Ling Suddenly she found me and told me that she had bought a house in this community, and she only paid a down payment, and she wanted to sell the house to me. She asked me to borrow some money by the way, and I bought her house."
Qu Liang recalled that year and asked strangely: "Didn't your old man hit and kill a man with his car at that time? He also took 300,000 yuan from me as compensation. Where did you get the money to buy the house in Central Garden?"
Mi Qian said: "You know the situation of my house. We couldn't afford it originally, but didn't we see that the orphaned and widowed Chu Ling urgently needed money to pity her, so Lao Ding borrowed another loan shark and finally bought the house. ”
Qu Liang had heard about loan sharks going to the Ding family to collect debts, so he believed this and said, "What next?"
Mi Qian said: "I asked Chu Ling at that time, I said you can't live in such a good house and still need to raise money. Where are you going? Chu Ling said that she was going on a far journey and might not be able to come back for many years. Come, let us live in this house, and she also said that in about ten years her son Chu Di will come to us and let us take care of her."
Qu Liang said: "She didn't say where she was going?"
Mi Qian said: "No, but I guess that the place where she can't return in ten years must be outer space. Maybe she joined a scientific expedition group or something. I don't know if her guess is right. Anyway, until Now she’s not back either.”
After hearing this, Qu Liang knew that Mi Qian could not ask anything more valuable, so he said: "Brother and sister, I have a meeting to hold, let's talk later."
After saying that, he hung up the phone without giving Mi Qian any chance to get close to her, and then called her sister-in-law Yin Yanmei: "Little sister, Chu Di's mother's name is Chu Ling, do you know?"
