Chapter Nine Looking for Dad(1/2)
Su Mingzhe called Su Mingcheng who was far away in China that night. As soon as Su Mingcheng received the overseas call from his elder brother, he felt very surprised, "Brother, it must be late at night over there right now?"
"Yes! Is it convenient for you to talk there now?"
"Convenient! I happen to be at work." Su Mingcheng got up from his workstation and came to the quiet corridor outside.
"Mingcheng, my eldest brother has never asked you for help since he was a child. Can I ask you to do something for me?"
"Brother, tell me if you have anything to say."
"Mingcheng, would you like to find our dad in Suzhou?"
"What?"
"Mingcheng, I have nightmares every time I sleep. I dream about my dad wandering around and living in the open. It really drives me crazy." Su Mingzhe explained with a wry smile on the phone.
"Huh? Brother, you are just too thoughtful. Don't scare yourself with your random thoughts."
"Mingcheng, there are really a lot of homeless people here in the United States. When I see those homeless people on the street, I think of our dad." Hearing Su Mingcheng's dismissive words, Su Mingzhe explained with a wry smile, "I miss you.
We are slowly looking for our dad in China. With his current age and health, I guess he will be at a construction site in Suzhou, or a place like this where homeless people gather under bridges."
"Brother, do you know how many construction sites there are in Suzhou now? If you ask me to go to one construction site after another, it's like looking for a needle in a haystack!" Su Mingcheng's shocking and exaggerated words came over the phone.
Hearing Su Mingcheng's excitement on the phone, Su Mingzhe could only continue to plead on the phone, "Mingcheng, I'm begging you, brother, we can't let our dad really die outside, right?"
"Brother, even if we find our dad, will our mom accept him with his temper?" Su Mingcheng quickly thought of a fatal question.
"Mingcheng, your sister-in-law and I have agreed that we will pay for a two-bedroom, one-living house in Suzhou, and then hire a nanny for our dad. We can keep this secret from our mom."
"Huh? Will my sister-in-law really agree?" Su Mingcheng was a little surprised. The house price in Suzhou is at least more than 2 million yuan.
"Mingcheng, your sister-in-law is still very open-minded, so you can go to our dad without any worries." Su Mingzhe on the other end of the phone was a little proud, feeling that he was really very dignified at this time.
"Okay! I'll look around for it."
Hearing that Su Mingcheng finally agreed, the king of "talking" Su Mingzhe couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief. Thinking that he had successfully interfered in family affairs for the first time, Su Mingzhe couldn't help but feel happy and proud.
Next, Su Mingcheng would drive his new car around Suzhou during his lunch break. During work, he would search at construction sites or bridge openings near his unit, and only on weekends would he go to construction sites farther away in the suburbs.
"Uncle, can I ask you about someone?" Su Mingcheng came to a construction site and asked an elderly worker.
"Okay! Say it."
"Is there an old man in his sixties on your construction site, with a long face, a little bald head, and looking sick every day?" Su Mingcheng described his father as concisely as possible.
"Huh? Look at those old men, they are all similar to what you described." The construction worker pointed at the old men gathering to eat and said with a displeased look.
"Well?"
Seeing that the construction worker suddenly became unhappy, Su Mingcheng became a little confused. Then he came to the group of old men eating fast food on the roadside and looked around one by one. However, the more he looked at him, the more uncomfortable he felt in his heart.
.
During this time, he visited many homeless gathering places and construction sites, and most of the people he saw were elderly construction workers. If anyone could live a comfortable life, they would never go out and suffer this crime.
In the beginning, he came out to look for his father mainly because of the pleading of his elder brother Su Mingzhe. However, as he searched and contacted in the past few days, Su Mingcheng suddenly discovered a world he had never been exposed to. The people in this world were more real and miserable.
Most of them had to run out to "eat bran-thick vegetables" because they had to provide for their children. Su Mingcheng couldn't help but think of his own situation, and suddenly felt an unbearable feeling of shame.
Now Su Mingcheng no longer regards finding his father as a way to deal with his eldest brother. Instead, he is more enthusiastic than his eldest brother Su Mingzhe. He feels uncomfortable if he doesn't go out and walk around every day.
Seeing her husband leaving early and coming home late every day, Julie couldn't help but feel distressed, "Mingcheng, you've been working too hard lately."
"Hey! There is no way, I must find our dad as soon as possible."
"Mingcheng, do you really not want to mention it to our mother?"
"Forget it! Just keep hiding it from her." Hearing Zhu Li mention his mother, Su Mingcheng couldn't help but sigh, "Eldest brother said that he will pay for my father to buy a house in Suzhou.
Then hire a nanny for our dad."
"Ah? Will my sister-in-law agree?"
"So I thought that the two of us would also contribute part of the money. No matter how much it is, it will be considered a part of our hearts."
"That's fine! Even if my eldest brother doesn't let us pay, we can hire a nanny ourselves, which is much more convenient than our eldest brother abroad."
"Well!" Su Mingcheng was moved and kissed Zhu Li on the face, then looked at Zhu Li with a wicked smile, "My wife is great, let's have a small meeting quickly!"
"Ah? Su Mingcheng, I think you are still not tired..." Although Zhu Li complained on her lips, her body was very honest.
...
At this time, Suning was enjoying life in Tokyo. She had no idea that Su Mingzhe and Su Mingcheng were frantically looking for her. Even if they knew, they would not take it to heart. She did not have such a deep relationship with them.
"Susan, Ayako and Kitahara-kun are here." Sanji Ayaka acted like a hostess at this time, and she really regarded herself as Suning's woman.
"Oh? Please come in quickly!"
"Hi!"
Looking at the tall and plump Sanji Ayaka, Suning couldn't help but swallow her saliva. This enchantress is so charming, and it always makes Suning feel like she can't stop.
Soon Ayaka Miyoshi brought Ayako and Kurasuke Kitahara in, and then directly knelt down next to Suning. Suning liked her well-behaved appearance.
"Mr. Su, please forgive me for disturbing you."
"Haha, Ayako, Kitahara-kun, sit down quickly!" Suning asked the two of them to sit down, and poured a cup of Kung Fu tea for each of them smoothly, "You are in for a treat today, this is the West Lake I brought from China.
Longjing before the rain.”
"Oh? Then we have to have a good taste."
After both Ayako and Kitahara Kurasuke had a taste, both of them couldn't help but their eyes lit up. Then Ayako looked at Suning and asked, "Mr. Su, I think your tea ceremony is very good. Can I learn from you?"
A study?"
"Okay! I also want to take on this beautiful apprentice like you."
"Thank you Mr. Su."
"Mr. Su, you must also know that I am the vice president of sales of JDI. I wonder if Suxin Technology can purchase LCD mobile phone screens from JDI?" Kitahara Kurasuke finally stated his purpose.
"Kitahara-kun, our Su Xin Technology has been using BOE LCD screens and Samsung OLED screens, so your request really embarrasses me!" Suning smacked her lips in embarrassment.
"Mr. Su, our JDI is really at the point of life and death. Please ask Mr. Su to come to our JDI's rescue." Kitahara Kurasuke knelt down and bowed in greeting.
"Kitahara-kun, even if I buy a batch of LCD mobile phone screens from your JDI, it will be difficult to really solve your company's dilemma, right?"
"Mr. Su, I wonder if you have any good methods?" Kitahara Kurasuke looked at Suning excitedly as his heart moved.
"Kitahara-kun, I am planning to build a mobile phone screen company of my own in China. You JDI can definitely join in and transfer part of the production capacity in Japan to China."
"Nani?"
"Kitahara-kun, your JDI should consider it. It is imperative for Suxin Technology to establish its own mobile phone screen factory, so I still hope that your JDI can join."
"Mr. Su, this matter is too important. I need to return to JDI to report it."
"Okay! I'm waiting for your news here."
"Hi!"
Soon Kitahara Kurasuke and Ayako left, and Sanji Ayaka looked at Suning with a confused expression, "Susan, is a company as big as JDI encountering a problem?"
"That's right! It turns out that JDI is Apple's largest screen supplier, but now Apple has begun to use Samsung's OLED screens in large quantities, so JDI's life is very difficult."
"Xinxi! So that's what it is."
"Haha, if we can put JDI's production capacity in China, it will be a huge benefit to Suxin Technology."
"Susan, business is really difficult. I may never be able to learn it in my lifetime."
"Hey, take your time and don't be impatient. Let's discuss other things."
"Hi!"
Suning and Sanji Caihua have another battle...
A long time passed. Sanjicai hugged Suning exhaustedly, and then explained in a low voice, "Susang, I want to go home tomorrow. My parents should be worried."
"Well, it'll be the day after tomorrow!" Suning thought for a while, then nodded in agreement, "I'll take you to buy some gifts for your parents tomorrow."
"Ah? Thank you Susan."
"Haha, you are my woman, you don't need to be polite to me."
"Hi!"
"Caihua, what if I gave your father a luxury car? I just don't know what brand he likes?"
"Susan, my father has always wanted to buy an Alfa commercial vehicle."
"No problem! Then give him an Alfa and buy him a Lexus LS."
"Ah? Thank you Su-san." Sanji Caihua couldn't help being pleasantly surprised.
"Caihua, as for your mother's gift, we can only go to Ginza to buy it tomorrow."
"Hi! Thank you for your hard work, Su-sang."
"Hehe, why don't you comfort your Su Sang?" Suning looked at the demon Sanji Caihua in his arms with a wicked smile.
"Hi!"
