Chapter 19 Chapter Nineteen

Dai Xi looked a little absent-minded, today's Li Weilian presented an unprecedented appearance in front of her eyes - what changed?Dai Xi couldn't figure it out clearly, because his focused expression and dexterous movements when he was doing these trivial things had already made her fascinated. "How can we prevent it from biting me?" Li Weilian crossed his arms and thought for a while, then suddenly said, "Daisy, please pour me a cup of coffee. The coffee pot is on the tea table." Dai Xi thought he wanted to drink coffee, so he hurriedly poured a full cup on the coffee table.To her surprise, Li Weilian loosened the knot that had just been tied, and soaked the two ends of the strap in a coffee cup before re-tying it.

Lucky was already impatient in every possible way. As soon as Li Weilian let go, he immediately lowered his head to chew on the strap, and stopped suddenly after gnawing twice, as if he had been greatly wronged, and roared angrily at Li Weilian: "Wow!" woof! woof!" Li Weilian laughed out loud. "I'm so stupid that I didn't think of this idea earlier." He threw a small ball to lucky and said to comfort it, "Baby, it's not that easy to fight against me." "How did you come here? Did Qiu Wenxin tell you that I was here?" He asked Dai Xi.

"Yeah, she's so fierce." "Hehe, Lucky and I were both kicked out by her. But Lucky is indeed a bit too much. During the National Day holiday, it broke at least 20 cups and plates, and ruined more than 30 cakes. It also harassed a lot of timid female customers. So now Qiu Wenxin stipulates that Lucky and I must avoid it during business hours, and also asks me to compensate her for economic losses of 1,888 yuan." "Is it too exaggerated?" "Ignore her. I told her I have no money and owe it!" Li Wei patted Lucky who was sullenly holding the ball in his mouth: "Lucky, Dad is a poor man, so you must be good, otherwise Dad won't be able to support you."

Daisy lowered her eyelids.The Li Weilian she was familiar with was like a warrior, always wearing invisible armor, radiant and aggressive, making everyone fearful of him.But today's Li Weilian took off his armor, Dai Xi couldn't guess what happened to him, maybe it was because of "Yi Yuan", maybe it was because of luck? ...In short, his sharpness is no longer and his brilliance is gone, but because of his simplicity and truthfulness, he has become more charming. Dai Xi is more afraid to look at him than ever before. "Daisy?" She looked up and saw his smile: "lucky can play by himself, I have something to talk to you."

Sitting down on the couch facing the palm bamboo, Lucky is playing with blue balls on the big table in the distance, his yellow hair is shining golden under the sunlight. He was silent for a while before he said, "Daisy, are you okay?" "Huh?" She didn't quite understand the meaning of his question, she glanced at him inquiringly, and immediately blushed, "I... am fine." Li Weilian nodded, and thought for a moment: "Dai Xi, your father, well, Professor Dai is still continuing to intervene Zhou Jianxin?" "Yes, Dad said that no matter what the outcome of the case is, he will always follow up on Zhou Jianxin's case."

"My opinion is that even if Zhou Jianxin commits a crime, he is still a victim. Any child is originally innocent. It is us who inflicted crime and hatred on him. If we want to be punished, we should be punished first." Dai Xi bit her lip, she didn't know how to respond to him. "Daisy, I have been thinking these days that life is like a combination of many cycles. You think you are moving forward desperately, but when you stop and take a closer look, you find that you have returned to the original point. Today's self is just It's just the shadow of my former self, with a few more wrinkles... Dai Xi, just like the passage you recited to me on the Star Ferry, do you remember?"

"So we sailed against the current and forged ahead, but..." Dai Xi didn't carry on the memorization, and the added wrinkles under the sunlight were particularly shocking, making her unwilling to continue. Li Weilian didn't urge her, but just immersed in his own thoughts: "Going against the current, I have indeed tried several times. When my mother left me and left Shanghai, I tried it for the first time; because of the relationship with Huiru Lost the opportunity of the college entrance examination, I tried to start again; after being seriously injured, I was forced to go to Hong Kong for medical treatment, where I worked hard to find a job and survive. What about it?" He sighed softly, and his tone was very calm: "All success is fleeting, and what I have reaped today is still failure, Dai Xi, I am a complete loser."

loser?Maybe... Everyone has different criteria for success and failure.What really saddened Dai Xi was Li Weilian's detached tone when talking. For many years, he has used this method to cling to his loneliness and never compromise. "This time I can still choose to start over and go against the current, but I lack the will and courage... I'm afraid I'm really old." "...Okay, let's not talk about this!" Li Weilian changed the subject, "Dai Xi, there are still some follow-up matters in terms of funds to trouble you." Another folder was prepared, which had already been neatly placed on the side of the coffee table, and Dai Xi could reach it with his left hand.His precision and cleanliness remain the same, but they become more natural and invisible.

On the first page is a bank account information. "Daisy, Carpe Diem's ​​business is very successful. The buyer will pay for the goods within two weeks. It should be this amount." He wrote a number on the paper, motioned Dai Xi to read it, and then wrote down the second number. "This amount is the total principal and interest of the usury loan I want to repay. After you receive the payment, you will transfer the full amount to this account immediately. According to the agreement between me and the mortgage company, as soon as the money is transferred, the mortgage of 'Yiyuan' will become invalid." gone."

"Okay, don't worry, it will be done!" Dai Xi's enthusiastic appearance caused Li Weilian to smile: "Dai Xi, after subtracting the first two figures, it is our net profit, which is about one million U.S. dollars... or seven million yuan. I have two usefulness." "Well, you say." He flipped the file to the next page, which contained information on another bank account. "Please transfer the five million yuan to this account first—it's the account of Lawyer Sun Cheng's firm. The five million yuan is for the future living expenses of Song Yindi and Zhou Jianxin's mother and child. I will pay the lawyer fees for the Zhou Feng case. It has already been paid separately and is not included in it.”

He saw that Dai Xi was a little confused, so he explained: "The truth about Zhou Feng's case has not yet come to light, and Zhou Jianxin is a minor, so I entrust Lawyer Sun to take care of the money and negotiate with Song Yindi to use it as needed. If Song Yindi finally can Once the suspicion is cleared, Lawyer Sun will transfer the money directly to her." Lisa said that Zhou Feng's family has a three-bedroom, two-living apartment in the urban area, plus the five million, it should be able to maintain the living standard of a well-off family.Dai Xi felt very uncomfortable. How could the catastrophe suffered by the family and the child's soul be more than five million can make up for?But she also understands that Li Weilian has done his best, everyone can count on him, blame him, and demand him, but he must bear everything, is this fair? "May I go on, Daisy?" "Oh well!" Li Weilian turned the file to the next page, but he still didn't speak.Dai Xi couldn't see the contents of the document, but only saw his hand flicking lightly on the paper, with thick and faint shadows covering his cheeks, which made him show a complex expression of love and melancholy.Dai Xi realized that he was about to talk about a crucial matter. "Daisy, this document is the 'Yi Yuan' donation statement signed by me, you have to hand it over to someone for me." "Gift?!" Dai Xi was stunned, took a look at the document, and couldn't help calling out: "Lin Nianzhen?!" "Yes, Professor Higgins' Chinese wife, are you familiar with her?" "I do not understand……" "This...it's really a long story. Dai Xi, you know that the last owner of 'Yi Garden' is Yuan Bohan, and he has a living granddaughter named Yuan Jia. Yuan Jia and I have been best friends since we were young. friend." "Yuan Jia..." Dai Xi repeated the name, what a beautiful name, pure and delicate like a daisy in early spring, where is she? "Yuan Bohan loved his granddaughter Yuan Jia the most during his lifetime. He has been working hard to get the 'Yi Garden' back and wants Yuan Jia to inherit it. However, Mr. Yuan died unexpectedly before leaving any will. Yuan Jia No one can prove her identity, and her rights can't be claimed. As a result, Yuan Jia was deprived of the inheritance right of "Yi Garden" by the Yuan family. I have an inescapable responsibility for this. Because it was me who indirectly caused Yuan Jia The death of the old man. Over the years, it has always been my greatest wish to take back 'Yi Garden' and return it to Yuan Jia. Today, I can finally do it." Dai Xi still didn't understand: "But Mrs. Higgins?" "She is Yuan Jia." "She is?!" Li Weilian smiled: "As for how Yuan Jia became Mrs. Higgins, Dai Xi, if you are interested in this, you can go to Mrs. Higgins to find out. This is her privacy, I have no right Talk to others. In short, she is the real owner of 'Yi Garden', there is no doubt about it. You just need to hand over this gift document to her, and she can go through the relevant procedures. Oh, we still have You also hand over the two million RMB that you paid to her, so as to pay the handling fees, taxes, etc. required for the transfer of 'Yiyuan'." He leaned gently on the back of the sofa: "Okay, it's all over. Dai Xi... Thank you." The little blue leather ball rolled to Li Weilian's feet, Lucky ran crookedly to the front of the sofa, pushed the little ball around, and purposely sniffed Li Weilian's trouser legs back and forth, trying to attract his attention.Although this little guy was mischievous, he had already developed a deep attachment to Li Weilian, so he just ignored him for a while, and he lost it. Li Weilian didn't move at all, he was isolated from the world at this moment. The content of the donation statement is simple and clear, and it only occupies a small part of the middle of a page of A4 paper, leaving a large blank space around it, which makes Dai Xi's eyes swell and hurt. "...Jane, will she accept it?" Dai Xi thought that Li Weilian probably couldn't hear his question, but he immediately answered: "I guess she can't." "what?" "The important thing is not whether she accepts it, what matters is that I give it." Li Weilian looked away from the swaying leaves in front of the window, "Daisy, I have lived to this age, and I understand a truth: the result in life It's not important, what's important is the process. So I don't care whether Mrs. Higgins accepts 'Yi Yuan'. For me, when I hand this statement to you, my wish will come true. Now I It's really...a relief." "I see, but why don't you give it to her yourself?" "She and I may never see each other again." Dai Xi didn't ask why again. "Daisy." "Well?" Li Weilian stared at her and asked, "You have helped me so much, what can I do for you?" Dai Xi was surprised by this question.
