After the holidays, Xiang Nan helped at the vegetable stall.
It wasn't until the morning of New Year's Eve that the stall was closed.
In the afternoon, Xiang Nan received a text message from Ling Xiangqian, "Tiankuo, there is a fireworks show in the city center square tonight, let's go watch it together."
Xiang Nan smiled and then replied, "Okay, see you in the central square."
After the New Year's Eve dinner in the evening, Xiang Nan put on new clothes and immediately went to the central square, and soon found Ling Xiangqian waiting there.
"You are so beautiful today~" Xiang Nan looked at her and praised with a smile.
Ling Xiangqian was wearing tight pants, boots and a pink windbreaker today. She had the unique innocence of a girl and a hint of the charm of a little woman.
"You are also very handsome." Ling Xiangqian replied with a smile.
Xiang Nan is dressed in a windbreaker and jeans, simple and fashionable. In fact, the clothes are not big-name, but he is handsome, so he looks good in whatever he wears.
"Otherwise, how can I be worthy of you?" Xiang Nan said with a smile, "Let's go and watch the fireworks."
Ling Xiangqian nodded.
…
The two of them were walking casually on the street, chatting while walking.
At this moment, a lonely figure walked past them.
Ling Xiangqian's eyes suddenly lit up, "Hey, isn't this Senior Brother Chen Yu who is very close to Yu Zhouzhou? Why is he wandering alone on the street when he is celebrating the New Year?"
"Maybe he's here for the appointment too." When Xiang Nan saw him, he said with a smile, "Don't worry about him, let's go."
Ling Xiangqian nodded and was about to leave when she saw Chen Yu take out a piece of paper from his pocket, tear it into pieces, throw it into a trash can by the roadside, and leave immediately.
Ling Xiangqian suddenly became curious, and hurriedly walked over and picked up the pile of shredded paper.
"Oh, why are you so curious? You have to pick up the things that others throw into the trash can and look at them!" Xiang Nan said speechlessly when he saw it.
"I just took a look." Ling Xiangqian smiled, then found a bench and slowly put the scraps of paper together.
After the pieces were put together, they found an agreement to terminate the relationship between father and son.
The agreement stipulated that Chen Yu and his father Chen Guofu terminated the father-son relationship. Chen Yu received a lump sum of 200,000 yuan and gave up the inheritance rights of other properties...
Ling Xiangqian was stunned when she saw this document.
She originally thought that this might be a love letter written by Yu Zhouzhou to Chen Yu.
But she didn't expect that the content was more shocking than she imagined.
Senior brother Chen Yu, who is gentle, elegant, modest and radiant, actually wants to sever the father-son relationship with his father, which shows how bad his family situation is.
I can't even imagine how bad the relationship must be before I sign this agreement!
…
"This...this...is really incredible." Ling Xiangqian said in shock.
"I've warned you a long time ago, don't try to pry into other people's privacy. Nietzsche once said that if you stare into the abyss for too long, the abyss will stare back." Xiang Nan advised, "Everyone has a dark side that cannot be revealed. What you are prying into At the same time, it will inevitably be affected.”
"I won't read it, I won't read it." Ling Xiangqian said quickly, shredding the documents that she had put together so hard.
Xiang Nan nodded, balled up the documents and threw them back into the trash can.
"Tiankuo, you said that everyone has a dark side that cannot be revealed, do you have one?" Ling Xiangqian then asked curiously.
"I just told you not to try to pry into other people's privacy." Xiang Nan smiled and said, "Why, are you curious again now?"
"I just want to get to know you better." Ling Xiangqian looked at Xiang Nan and said, "After dating for so long, I don't even know much about you. What do your parents do, do you have any brothers and sisters, and where do you live? , not far from my home..."
"Actually, this is the dark side that I don't want to show to others." Xiang Nan smiled slightly and said, "Sissi, I'm worried that you will have bad thoughts about me after I tell you."
"How is that possible?" Ling Xiangqian shook her head and said, "Tiankuo, what I like is you, not your family. Even if your family situation is as bad as Senior Brother Chen Yu's, I won't mind."
"Senior Brother Chen Yu can get two hundred thousand yuan from his family at once, which is not bad at all." Upon hearing this, Xiang Nan waved his hand.
"What is it like? Tell me, I want to know." Ling Xiangqian asked curiously.
Xiang Nan nodded.
Chu Tiankuo's native family is indeed not very good, poor and philistine, so he dare not let his classmates know, for fear of damaging his noble and elegant prince image.
No matter in the play or in the book, he has always hidden this secret, and even the people closest to him did not dare to tell it.
However, things are different now.
Although his original family is still as bad as before, Xiang Nan has made a lot of money writing books. Moreover, being recommended to Peking University also guaranteed his future.
Although their family is still poor now, in the foreseeable future, their family will definitely escape poverty and be promoted to the middle class.
In August Chang'an's original work "So Many Years", it was written that Chu Tiankuo had a very successful career after graduating from Peking University. Geng Geng was asked to help take wedding photos, and she was offered a huge price that she was embarrassed to refuse.
Moreover, at the wedding, his philistine and vulgar father, whom he once despised, was allowed to give a speech on the stage. At that time, his career was very successful. Even if his father lost face, he could still afford it.
Therefore, he no longer hides or covers up, but openly shows others.
…
"Since you really want to know, I'll tell you." Xiang Nan said solemnly, "Be mentally prepared and don't faint."
Seeing how solemn he was, Ling Xiangqian couldn't help but take a deep breath and said, "Okay, you go ahead."
"Actually, I'm not a prince. My parents are both fish vendors, and they set up a stall at the Friendship Farmers Market." Xiang Nan said immediately, "I have been helping there after the holiday."
"..." After hearing this, Ling Xiangqian was stunned, feeling that her three senses had been hit hard.
In her eyes, Xiang Nan originally had a good family background like her, and her parents were both high-level civil servants or successful businessmen. That's why we can teach such an outstanding child as Xiang Nan.
I really didn’t expect that bad bamboo would produce good bamboo shoots. It turns out that Xiang Nan was born into a small businessman's family. His name as a prince and his family background were all just an illusion.
"It's impossible, you lied to me, right?" Ling Xiangqian said in shock.
She really couldn't believe that Xiang Nan had such a background. Thinking of him catching, killing, weighing fish at the stall, haggling over prices, fussing over everything... her outlook was shattered.
"I'm not lying to you. If you don't believe me, if you smell it, there should still be a fishy smell on my hands." Xiang Nan stretched out his hand and said.
Ling Xiangqian smelled it, and sure enough she smelled a faint fishy smell, which made her frown.
"Okay, you know I'm not a prince anymore, so you should be very disappointed in me." Xiang Nan sighed, "I can understand if you want to break up with me."
Ling Xiangqian was stunned for a moment, then shook her head, "Tiankuo, I don't want to break up with you, I want to continue to be with you."
"Don't you think I have a bad background?" Xiang Nan asked in surprise when he heard this.
