Diplomat's Wife

Chapter 243 Why did you pretend to be drunk?
Jin Yu drank a lot, but his pace was still steady, and he carefully protected Mu Qiqi who was walking in front along the way.

Yan Yuchen followed behind his family of three, his footsteps had already started to erratic, if it wasn't for the railings beside the stairs, he might not be able to walk straight at this time.

Along the way, he walked to the door, watched the family of three get into the car, and watched them leave safely.

The night was getting dark, most of the noisy guests had already left, and the scattered ones were saying their final farewell. This day was a busy day.

Yan Yuchen stretched his waist and walked towards the garden, wanting to get rid of the alcohol smell all over his body. As a soldier, he has always had excellent self-control, but today is his grandfather's birthday, and he is at his home, welcoming and sending him off. , I drank a lot, especially at the end, the bottle of wine I drank with Jin Yu was really greedy.

Turning around and looking up, he subconsciously looked at the old house behind him. Surrounded by mountains, the tall old house was brightly lit.

The light in Yan Ranran's room was on, and she saw a figure swaying by the gauze curtain. The girl must have been in the room. This younger sister has always been well-behaved and worry-free, but recently, because of the matter between her and Jin Sheng, the whole family has really had a headache.

For Jin Sheng, they have known each other for many years. In the army, they are brothers who have given their lives. On the battlefield, they broke through the enemy's camp, beheaded the enemy, and escaped from death several times. This kind of trust is hard to match.

Later, Jin Sheng changed his career, was admitted to university, and became a lawyer. He showed his sharpness at a young age. This was due to his personality and ability.

Although he often disparages Jin Sheng's flair, he has to admit that sometimes, he admires Jin Sheng's calmness from the bottom of his heart.

In the face of the prejudice and slander of those illegitimate children, he can face it calmly, and he does not hide his own life experience; For those cumbersome and complicated lawsuits, no matter whether the other party is just or not, as long as he is paid enough, he will be able to point it out, so many case files have been revived in his hands...

From the eyes of others, it seems that Jin Sheng is a heartless, heartless, and righteous person, but in his Yan Yuchen's eyes, it seems that Jin Sheng has always been wearing an incomprehensible mask, while he is laughing at the red dust mask. He always felt that there must be a face he had never seen behind it.

In other words, what's wrong with being chic and suave in a lifetime?Looking at him, the military uniform is close to him, responsibility dictates, self-denial and law-abiding, but it also loses a lot of fun.

Every time he came out of the army, Jin Sheng would always accompany him to the latest and most noisy places, and take him to meet the youngest and most beautiful girls. In the whole city, there seemed to be no boundary that he, Jin Shao, could not reach.

He also asked Jin Sheng once, saying that he was very curious, what kind of girl would be able to regain a prodigal son in love like him in the end.

Jin Sheng just snorted and said, Impossible, absolutely impossible.

Among thousands of flowers, how could he only pick one?
Unexpectedly, in the end, Jin Sheng was really serious, and he never thought that the person Jin Sheng was serious about was his sister.

If it was someone else, Yan Yuchen might be happy for him, but that person is the younger sister who was loved by him since childhood.

Although on the battlefield, Jin Sheng had saved his life, and three years ago, Jin Sheng once again saved Ran Ran’s innocence. For the Yan family, Jin Sheng was kind and righteous, but if his sister was saved because of this man, After losing her, it will develop to the point where the secret love chases after her and promises her body. This is absolutely impossible.

This younger sister is too simple, so simple that she can trust everyone around her. For Jin Sheng, a prodigal son in love, her show of love is undoubtedly a moth to the flame.

Jiangshan is easy to change and nature is difficult to change. He knows Jin Sheng's past so well that he can't be sure whether Jin Sheng is just a fad, but Ran Ran's happiness is a matter of a lifetime, and he must not bet on it.

Ran Ran's happiness, he is duty-bound, he listened to what his younger sister said, but this time, only this time, he couldn't let her be self-willed.

The light in the little girl's bedroom was turned off, leaving only a small night light by the bed, presumably she was going to sleep.

Yan Yuchen looked at his parents' bedroom again. The shadows of the two people were projected by the curtains. His father seemed to be hugging his mother. The old couple were rarely so close. He could imagine his mother's dodging. Mother loved to be clean, and what she hated most was her father. She smelled of alcohol, and after a while, the mother left her father and walked away. After all, the guests downstairs still needed her as the hostess to see them off one by one.

Then the lights in the parents' bedroom were also turned off. Yan Yuchen thought his father had rested and was about to go back, but he didn't want to. After a while, the lights in the next room turned on.

Aunt's room?
Yan Yuchen's eyebrows frowned. After her aunt got married, especially after she lost track of her, the family seldom entered that room, especially because they were worried that Mr. Yan would be hurt, so the room was locked most of the time, and the key was only in the Yan Kecheng's body.

What does father do in aunt's room?

Yan Yuchen hesitated, and walked up with curiosity.

The door of the aunt's room was ajar, Yan Yuchen knocked on the door, "Dad, it's me."

"Come in." Yan Kecheng murmured in a low voice, it sounded like the alcohol had dissipated a lot.

Yan Yuchen opened the door and went in, only to see Yan Kecheng sitting in front of the desk, the white cloth covering the desk was lifted by his father, and there was a jar of wine and two bowls on the desk.

Yan Kecheng moved his chin slightly and gave him a look. Yan Yuchen nodded in agreement, closed the door, and walked to sit opposite Yan Kecheng.

"Pour wine." Yan Kecheng whispered.

"Dad, you've already drunk a lot tonight." Yan Yuchen persuaded.

"Fall." Yan Kecheng's words were beyond doubt.

Yan Yuchen didn't dare to disobey his father's order, so he picked up the wine jar and poured the wine. He thought it was the old wine in the cellar, but he didn't expect that the wine in the jar turned out to be sweet-scented osmanthus wine.

Father never drank this kind of low-alcohol flower wine, what happened today?Yan Yuchen murmured in his heart.

"This is the sweet-scented osmanthus wine that your aunt used to drink most. When the sweet-scented osmanthus blossoms bloomed, she would pester your grandma to make fresh sweet-scented osmanthus wine for her. It's just that she has a small amount of alcohol, and she's drunk at once." Yan Kecheng suddenly Caught in memories.

"Really?" Yan Yuchen smiled. At that time, his aunt must have looked very cute. He suddenly thought of Mu Qiqi. The mother and daughter are of the same line. Qiqi must be so good at grinding people, but not annoying. It must be hereditary For mom's sake.

Yan Kecheng picked up the bowl, raised his head and drank it, "Today is Dad's birthday, this glass of wine should be regarded as a respect for Dad on Qiangwei's behalf."

The middle-aged man was talking to himself.

Yan Yuchen picked up the wine jar and poured wine for his father again.

"For so many years, my aunt has never heard from her. If it is said that the country A was still in the cold war period, it was inconvenient to negotiate many things, but now, why can't I seek diplomatic channels to find out about my aunt's whereabouts?" Yan Yuchen didn't dare to mention it either, but today it was his father who brought it up first, so he simply raised a question.

"It was concluded early in the morning that weapons experts died in the explosion. After so many years, no one was responsible for the explosion that year. For any politician, it is a stain, and no one is willing to touch it. Yes." Yan Kecheng said lightly.

"Including the president?" Yan Yuchen asked, he seemed to understand why there seemed to be a growing rift between his father and the president recently, he thought it might be because of his aunt.

Yan Kecheng didn't answer directly, but his eyes gradually deepened, "When Hanlin ran for president, he and former president Dai Liping had a tight vote, and I cast a crucial vote, which affected the subsequent election situation. "

The election that year was impressive, and Yan Yuchen also remembered that at the most intense moment of the election, his father, as the leader of the military and the number one general stationed in the Imperial Capital Military Region, his attitude was crucial.

Jin Hanlin won, and Yan Kecheng contributed a lot.

Presumably Yan Kecheng was willing to make such a decision back then, not only because of the relationship between Jin Yu and Mu Qiqi after they got married, but also because he wanted to use Jin Hanlin's unrivaled power to find out the whereabouts of his younger sister Yan Qiangwei.

Obviously, on this point, Jin Hanlin and Yan Kecheng may have disagreed.

Yan Yuchen comforted him and said: "After all, the president is in his position, he has a lot of worries, and he can't help himself in many things. Maybe Jin Yu is the key person. After all, he is Qiqi's husband and aunt's son-in-law."

Yan Yuchen could see Jin Yu's favor for Mu Qiqi. Over the years, what Mu Qiqi's wish was, Jin Yu couldn't understand it better. He believed that Jin Yu was the one who could take on the job compared to the president.

Yan Kecheng's stern face suddenly pursed into a smile, "After promoting Lao Tzu to the throne, continue to support my son? Instead of this, I might as well promote you to the position? After all, it is my own!"

These words were drunk, half joking, but also somewhat serious.

Yan Yuchen let out a "huh", presumably he also understands that he is definitely not the kind of guy who engages in politics, he is a rough man, and manipulating weapons is his strength, let him play with people's hearts, it is better to kill him directly and give him a good time .

After being silent for a long time, Yan Yuchen was tangled in thought, and finally couldn't help asking, "Dad, after so many years, you haven't thought about a possibility? Maybe...Auntie...has..."

Already dead, the words stuck in his throat, but he dared not say them.

"Impossible." Yan Kecheng said decisively.

"Dad! The people sent to assassinate must be one-on-one killers, but my aunt is just an interpreter. Facing those professionally trained killers, she has almost no chance of surviving. No! Absolutely not!" Having reached such a point, Yan Yuchen wanted to say what he had buried in his heart for a long time.

Because things have passed for so long, if my aunt is really still alive, how could it be possible that there is still no news after so many years?
Yan Yuchen's palms were soaked with sweat, and his legs were shaking. He knew that his words would definitely anger his father, but once Yan Kecheng got angry, the ground would be shaken, and he would never think whether the person in front of him was his son or not.

The father really got angry, and it can only be said that the six relatives did not recognize him.

Unexpectedly, Yan Kecheng unexpectedly, with an indifferent expression, raised his bowl and drank a bowl of wine, and said in a low voice: "Qiangwei is still alive, she must be alive!"

"Dad! You are blindly confident!" Yan Yuchen felt that he seemed to be courting death. Tonight, with the help of alcohol, he seemed to be attacking his father's bottom line without any scruples.

Yan Kecheng sighed, waking up like a crouching tiger.

Yan Yuchen's body sank to the back of the chair, and he almost fell over. Is his father going to lose his temper?

However, Yan Kecheng got up and didn't do anything to him. Instead, he walked to the bookshelf behind him, opened the glass door, and found a book. He then returned to the chair and sat down, flipping the pages quickly with calloused fingers. , until a yellowed envelope flew from the book and fell onto the table.

Yan Kecheng picked up the envelope and pushed it in front of Yan Yuchen.

Yan Yuchen glanced at the writing on it in a daze, and it was written in delicate handwriting, "Brother Qi."

A letter from my aunt?

Yan Yuchen quickly took the envelope and opened it to read.

"Brother, I'm leaving for France tomorrow..."

"Brother, when I'm not here, you have to promise me that you will treat Qiqi as your own daughter. Yuanru is too busy and lives abroad all year round. Anyway, you are here..."

"Brother, when I got married, the bracelet my mother gave me was in the drawer of my study. When the time comes, you must pass it on to Qiqi for me..."

"Brother, I may not be able to make it back for Dad's birthday, please remember to offer him a bowl of sweet-scented osmanthus wine..."

……

Three pages of eloquent and timeless writing, flowing like fine water, are all about a mother's deep love for her daughter.

At the end of the reading, even a big man like him felt his nose sour and his eyes filled with tears.

"Auntie sent it before she left for France?" Yan Yuchen smiled bitterly, his voice trembling.

Yan Kecheng nodded.

"I think you should show this letter to Qiqi, that girl will definitely cry!" Yan Yuchen smiled. Since he was a child, he liked to make Qiqi cry the most, and he always thought it was fun for her to cry. .

"Don't you think this letter is a bit strange?" Yan Kecheng pursed his lips, looking at his son and asking in a low voice.

"Strange?" Yan Yuchen didn't think so, but since his father mentioned it, he picked up the envelope again and read it again. This time, he seemed to notice something strange.

"I'm leaving for France tomorrow..." Yan Yuchen said to himself, "Tomorrow..."

Suddenly, as if he wanted to wake up, he widened his eyes and looked at his father and said, "Before my aunt went to France, she had a premonition that she might not come back, so she wrote this will early in the morning! It's a will! It's not an ordinary letter at all!"

Yan Kecheng nodded, and his son finally got to the point, but he added, "It's not a hunch, but she clearly knew that she wouldn't be able to come back. It's just that at that time, there was still half a year before the experts from country A defected. I would not have expected that to happen in advance, so your aunt's disappearance is definitely not an accident, but it is very likely that this coincidence was used to create the fact that she disappeared."

Yan Yuchen was shocked by his father's analysis, and couldn't calm down for a long time. After a long time, he asked, "But why? Why did you let my aunt disappear? Who asked her to do this? What is the purpose?"

Yan Kecheng shook his head, he didn't know, he couldn't figure it out after so many years.

Since the news of Yan Qiangwei's disappearance came, he searched and inquired in many ways, but even though he used all his contacts, he still had no way out. Yan Qiangwei just disappeared like this, and the world evaporated.

And because she was involved in the defection case of the weapon expert and the intelligence leak case, many factors made her name a taboo. No one dared to mention her publicly, and people quickly forgot about her, as if this person had never existed. .

Another long silence.

Yan Yuchen changed the subject, "Dad, you are obviously not drunk, but you were at the wine table just now, why did you pretend to be drunk?"

Yan Kecheng stared at him for a long time, but he had always been very rich in the city, but he didn't know why he gave birth to a daughter who was pure and uninitiated, and this son didn't seem to have inherited any of his habits at all.

Yan Yuchen was stared at by his father, subconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva, he was afraid of his father from the bottom of his heart.

After a long time, Yan Kecheng didn't answer Yan Yuchen's question, got up and left.

Leaving Yan Yuchen standing there alone, he thought for a long time, why did his father pretend to be drunk?

If the father stayed on the wine table in the form just now, he would inevitably have a dispute with Jin Yu. It seems that the father never thought about really going to tear himself apart with the president.

Yeah?Is that what he thought?

It's just his father's thoughts, which he has never been able to figure out.

　There are two more, hehehe,
