Ordinary Road 2010

But it's not over yet.

Towards the end, the two fathers who were bragging to each other somehow brought the topic to wine.

Lin Guoqing usually only has a few drinks at home and does not drink too much. Zhou Zecheng has a lot of business needs and entertainment, but what they are talking about today is a famous Yuezhou wine.

"Nvnvhong is rice wine made from glutinous rice. In the past, according to the custom here, the daughter was buried in the ground when she was born, and it was taken out when she was married. It was very meaningful."

Gu Caiwei asked curiously: "Do I also have such a jar of wine, why don't I know?"

Zhou Zecheng gave her a doting look: "Modern people are not so particular about it, and Yuezhou rice wine is not a rare thing, you can drink it anytime."

"But this feeling of licking the calf, I am getting older and more able to understand it, and I feel it for a while."

Lin Guoqing interjected: "Of course, as long as parents are alive, they will inevitably have to think about their children. We are all the same in this regard."

"Papa Gu, Mama Gu, today we came to visit from Lin'an, and saw your tutors, and your heart for your daughter."

"Our son Lin Yi, who has been with Xiao Gu for so many years, can almost be regarded as the one you watched growing up."

"Xiao Gu's excellence is obvious to all. If Lin Yi doesn't learn well and doesn't make progress, then we as parents will lose face and talk nonsense in front of your eyes."

"Fortunately, he is quite up to date. Now that he has made some achievements, we are honored to be his parents. Today, we dare to boast that we have a good relationship with Xiao Gu."

"So I would like to make a request as Lin Yi's father. If you can trust him, can you entrust Xiao Gu's life to him? What do you two think?"

This did not surprise anyone.

The purpose of today's meal was well known to the six people present before they came, including Lin Yi, who were all mentally prepared for this.

Zhou Zecheng and Gu Changge looked at each other, and they naturally wouldn't have any objections.

At this time, no one expected that Gu Caiwei, who had been silent today, spoke instead:

"I thought, why don't we get engaged first?"

Chapter 661 I Will

Ms. Gu Changge responded the fastest.

When she heard this, she immediately looked at her daughter, but she didn't find any clues on her face, then she turned to Lin Yi, and saw the same surprise as herself.

It seems that's not what he meant.

Zhou Zecheng was also caught off guard, but he didn't speak rashly.

Lin Guoqing and Yu Xiujuan were of course also unexpected. According to their thinking, they could get married directly and why get engaged?

The former seemed to be aware of the weird atmosphere at the moment when Gu Caiwei spoke just now, but the current situation is not the time to get to the bottom of it.

In some places, the custom is like this. Usually, the engagement ceremony is held on the woman's side, and the wedding ceremony is held on the man's side.

"His mother and I really don't know much about the marriage customs in Yuezhou. If your habit is to get engaged first and then get married, then that's fine. We can all cooperate. Let's discuss it."

It was still Zhou Zecheng who interjected: "Since our parents have no objections, and both children are here today, and both agree, then this marriage is considered settled."

"As for the issue of form, just like Papa Lin said, it's fine for the two parties to discuss it. In fact, we don't have too many rules."

He neither admitted nor denied the engagement.

Because Gu Caiwei didn't object this time, the parents of the two families kindly agreed that the meal would be finished today.

Originally, after the end, Lin Yi and Gu Caiwei should go back with their respective parents, but Lin Yi made another suggestion temporarily.

"Xiaowei and I, we want to walk together again, I'll send her back alone later."

Gu Caiwei readily agreed, looking very happy.

Ms. Yu Xiujuan joked: "When you get married and you get together, can't you be separated for a while?"

Having said that, she was very happy to see the deep affection between the two, and the other three parents did not express any objection, so after they left, only this young couple was left on the scene.

"Why did you suddenly say you were going to get engaged?"

Lin Yi didn't beat around the bush, he and Gu Caiwei should be able to meet each other honestly, presumably she thought so too.

"Because... I don't think it's appropriate to get married now."

"why?"

Gu Caiwei turned her head to answer the wrong question: "Lin Yi, is senior sister okay over there?"

really.

"Xiaowei, how senior sister is doing over there has nothing to do with our marriage."

"I admit that I am very worried about her, and I really hope that I can do something to get her out of trouble as soon as possible, but this does not hinder my heart for you."

Gu Caiwei didn't show any expression of bitterness and hatred, but was very relaxed.

"You misunderstood, Lin Yi."

"What I said just now did not imply any insinuation to you and senior sister, or to question and accuse you."

"I fully understand that you are worried about her at this moment, and I have no doubt that if it was me who was there, you would have paid more or less for me."

"Lin Yi, such a big thing happened recently, I'm really a little cranky."

"I used to think that during the days when Senior Sister, she and you started a business together, if I replaced her, then even if I couldn't help as much as her, at least I could be a companion."

"Later I found out that it seemed that I was thinking things too simply."

"I have always known that you are all very remarkable people. When you cooperated, you had amazing brilliance, and after you separated, you were able to break out of your own world."

"But what I don't know is that you are still facing such danger."

"When you were in Shanghai recently, I often read the comments on the Internet. Almost everyone was complaining about what happened to her, and many called her a hero."

"I also have a lot of fans, and I am often praised by others. I like to watch others praise me with my trumpet, and I feel very proud of myself."

"But I also admit that no matter how brilliant an artist is, he probably won't be persecuted by other countries because of his career."

"I said this not because of the industry I work in, but because of her difficulty."

"And you, Lin Yi."

"You took over this burden after your senior sister's accident, so you shouldn't be so safe, right?"

"I once imagined that if I encountered her current difficulties, would I be as calm and calm as her."

"I do not know."

"Because I have been living under the protection of my parents and you, I can't imagine how dangerous it is."

"Lin Yi, she must be a very brave person."

"Now it's not just you who are worried about her, there are thousands of people who are worrying about her and praying for her."

"At this time, if you want to let go of everything over there, as if nothing happened, and marry me as if nothing had happened, I am very grateful that you are willing to do all this for me."

"But I don't want to."

"It may be because you have protected me so well and met my many unrealistic expectations, so I have more innocent visions."

"I hope that if one day we walk through that door holding hands, you will be able to say "I do" without interruption and without distraction."

Lin Yi was both moved and ashamed: "Xiaowei..."

Gu Caiwei stopped his interruption with a coquettish offensive: "Oh, listen to me, I finally mustered up the courage!"

"What you said just now, you can take it as a young girl's insistence on romance, but I have another determination that I must let you know."

"I will never give up on you, Lin Yi."

"Besides, getting engaged is also a kind of commitment. I'm not worried and I won't give you the chance to make you go back on your word, so please be prepared."

Lin Yi grabbed her palm and pressed it to his left chest: "I know, I hope you know the same determination."

After the two talked, at least there was no problem between them.

However, Zhou Zecheng and Gu Changge might not be satisfied. Seeing how they left when they left, it's not that they have no idea about Lin Yi.

"I'll go tell my parents, anyway, it's my idea to get engaged."

Gu Caiwei volunteered.

"Why don't I tell them, what's the matter with you, after all, it's because of me in the final analysis."

It's not that Lin Yi has to be in a hurry to touch this bad luck, but if he doesn't show up, he always feels very irresponsible.

But Gu Caiwei was very persistent and full of confidence: "Don't worry, I can convince them!"

In this case, Lin Yi didn't force her anymore, but just told her that if Zhou Zecheng or Gu Changge had any dissatisfaction, she could come to him at any time, and he was willing to go over and explain.

As for Lin Yi's parents, it should be fine, he can just play by ear.

Lin Yi looked at the impeccable girl who was about to become his fiancée, and she was so considerate, and felt lucky for the fate he had grasped in this life.

Life is like this, what more can a husband ask for.

Chapter 662 Protracted War

Gu Caiwei didn't know how she told her parents, anyway, Zhou Zecheng and Gu Changge did not look for Lin Yi again.

After the Spring Festival, Lin Yi's Pengcheng Automobile has entered a new stage. His production base in Yuezhou officially announced the start of trial production, and the next step should be a long ramp-up of production capacity.

This matter is not worth mentioning in the entire auto industry, and their attention has been occupied by the start of Tesla's Shencheng Gigafactory.

That is to say, it has attracted a certain amount of attention among players of new energy vehicles, but the general opinion is that they are not too worried, because this Wanli No. 1 is really mediocre.

Among the new forces that are invariably pursuing technology, coolness, and trendiness, Lin Yi's Pengcheng car is so out of place that others don't even have the energy to criticize it.

For example, the future Li Bing simply said that the two sides are not competitors at all.

Obviously, for now, everyone thinks that Lin Yiyi is targeting the online car-hailing market, which can be regarded as the upstream and downstream extension of Wanli Chuxing's online car-hailing business.

Lin Yi didn't care about this kind of contempt, because this tram named W1, through the cooperation and promotion of Wanli Travel, has received enough online car-hailing orders for them to produce for a long time.

Wouldn't it be beautiful to make a fortune with a muffled voice?

Of course, more new cars are also on the way. For example, Pengcheng No. 3, the P1 model, which is the benchmark against Magic Bean 1, is also progressing smoothly.

When this car comes out, no one should doubt their ambitions for the consumer market.

Wanli Travel's own business is lackluster. After listing, part of the funds raised are used to develop overseas markets, which has indeed boosted the business scale, but it has not contributed to profits.

The company's stock price has also stabilized, and Liu Jianni is more than enough to take charge.

On the other hand, Muse's business has gradually recovered from the impact of the sister-in-law incident, and basically resumed the strong growth momentum before that.

Strictly speaking, the company level can also be called a blessing in disguise.

Muse did not accept the coercion of compulsory acquisition, and there was no further news from the United States, certainly not because of their soft-heartedness.

Lin Yi believes that there should be someone doing work silently in a place where no one can see.

Although it is not stated clearly, if you pay attention to the news, you should be able to find some unusual interactions between the two sides of the Pacific Ocean during this period.

Until the beginning of March, Mr. Zong, who had met once before, appeared in front of him again.

"Teacher Zong, it's been a long time."

"It was we who asked Mr. Lin to wait, but our work has not stopped during this period of time. We came here today to inform you about something new. At the same time in Vancouver, our colleagues should also be explaining to Ms. Li Moyan. "

"Please say."

Teacher Zong said seriously: "Through our efforts during this period, we are sure that Ms. Li will not be extradited in the short term."

"But unfortunately, we have no way to bring her back directly for the time being."

"Mr. Lin should be able to imagine that our work has encountered great resistance. Of course, I am not complaining, but explaining the complexity of the matter to you."

"The current situation is that according to the information we have received, the Canadian side should enter the judicial process."

"This means that we have no way to resolve this incident through purely foreign channels, and cumbersome and lengthy legal procedures will be unavoidable."

"For Ms. Li Moyan, we know that the company has hired a strong team of lawyers for her, and there is still some guarantee in this regard."

"Our suggestion is to simply turn against the client and file a civil lawsuit against them, demanding that this extradition request be invalid or illegal."

"This is mainly to show an attitude to the outside world. Ms. Li Moyan has never done anything wrong, but suffered an innocent disaster."

Of course they are all aware of this.

Lin Yi has no intention of appealing or suing anyone for this, or even if he does so, it will not help, he can only do useful things.
