    33. The past of the Shen family.

    The Qingtanwan villa has always been very clean, and no one would come here to make a noise. Qu Lang was still afraid that when he had a nightmare last night, there was a sudden sound of people downstairs.

    Because the voice was so loud, even from upstairs, you could probably hear the voice of a woman of some age.

    She is arguing with the servant aunt.

    After Qu Lang had packed up and walked downstairs in a leisurely manner, the auntie servant had already placed him on the sofa.

    The woman who was drinking tea was quite old, and Mother Qu was sitting beside her. The two of them came to Qingtan Bay together, and they seemed to be familiar with each other, but they were far away from each other, as if they were not familiar with each other.

    When the woman saw Qu Lang going downstairs, she immediately stood up again. She said to Qu Lang, "Alang, you are willing to come down. Let me tell you, something happened to Achen!"

    The corner of Qu Lang's mouth twitched a little, and he said to her with a half-smile, "I know."

    Hearing this, the woman was taken aback.

    "What's the meaning?"

    "Aunt Lu, the Lu family's real estate is in short supply, and Lu Chen embezzled funds to fill the hole in your house. I checked the account clearly, and naturally I went to report the crime."

    After Qu Lang finished speaking, he ignored the woman, turned his eyes to Mother Qu, and asked, "Why are you here?"

    Mother Qu threw the peeled apple peel into the trash can. When asked by her son, she looked up at him and replied, "I'll take a look, I haven't seen Xiaobei for a long time. This child, after the New Year's Eve, There is no shadow, and there must be a limit to busy work.”

    "He went out to film, a suspense movie."

    Qu Lang's answer was expected by Mother Qu.

    Mother Qu nodded and wanted to ramble again, but the mother and son didn't say anything. Lu Chen's mother, who was left to the side, couldn't help it. She said, "My Achen wouldn't do that kind of thing!"

    A long and prosperous life has kept Mother Lu looking good. Even if Lu Ming passed away last year, she was not affected much because her son was still there. Even without her unhappy husband, Mother Lu was more nourished this year.

    But now Mother Lu panicked, she was very nervous, she dragged Mother Qu and said "impossible" and "Achen wouldn't do that kind of thing". Mother Lu's face was like a piece of white paper, and she looked very ugly. Because of her excitement, she pulled Mother Qu almost to drop the half-shaved apple in her hand.

    "How do I know what your son will do, Meng Jiao, I'm not familiar with you." Mother Qu pushed him away angrily.

    Mother Qu has always had a bad temper. Among the wealthy wives, she has always met with whomever she met.

    If you are good-natured towards your own family, that is towards your own family. The attitude of outsiders all depends on her whether they are pleasing to the eye or not. Qu's mother with such a temper should have a bad popularity, but over the years, Qu's father has expanded overseas business, and Qu Lang has guarded the country. The father and son have managed the Qu's Group very well.

    When most people see Mother Qu, they can only be flattering.

    After all, people who want to please Mother Qu are lined up every day.

    If she hadn't just met Lu's mother at the door, she would have to follow her shamelessly, and Qu's mother would not have stayed with her.

    Tsk, if had known that Meng Jiao was here to find her son, even if Meng Jiao wanted to follow her, Mother Qu would not let Meng Jiao come in.

    Mother Qu's attitude towards Mother Lu was not very good. Mother Lu was very annoyed, but she didn't dare to be angry. She came here today to ask for help.

    Last night, Mother Lu was still having dinner with Lu Chen, and suddenly someone came to arrest someone, but Mother Lu didn't respond, and Lu Chen was taken away. Later, it was Lin who wanted to remind her, and she only thought that she could come and beg Qu Lang.

    Mother Lu thought of Lin Xiang, and she suddenly regained her spirits. She said, "Alang, you and Achen grew up together. You were kidnapped when you were a child. We Achen sacrificed our lives to protect you! You can't watch Something happened to him. Even if he did it, he must have known it was wrong. In order to bring Lin Xiang back, Achen reunited with you—"

    Before Lu's words were finished, Qu's mother spoke first: "Did Lu Chen bring Lin Xiang back?!"

    Mother Lu knew that Mother Qu didn't like Lin Xiang, but in Mother Lu's opinion, this was the only bargaining chip she could use to impress Qu Lang. As long as Lin Xiang came to help her and intercede with Qu Lang, Lu Chen would be fine.

    Mother Lu felt a little regretful, she should have brought Lin Xiang with her.

    Mother Lu gathered up her courage, ignored Mother Qu, and said to Qu Lang, "I think that the child has always had you in his heart, but he couldn't hold back his face after he went abroad, so he never came back... After Achen found out, it was also for you. Both are good."

    "Now that you and Shen Mingbei are divorced, Lin Xiang is at my house. He has been waiting for you to pick him up."

    Mother Lu's words undoubtedly made Mother Qu explode. She slapped the fruit knife heavily on the table and asked, "You and Xiaobei are divorced? What's going on?"

    "Alang and Lin Xiang are already in love. If you hadn't urged Alang to get married, they would have been together long ago. Divorce now is a reasonable thing." Mother Qu was furious.

    Mother Qu looked at Qu Lang and asked him, "Is this true?"

    "I don't like Lin Xiang."

    Qu Lang didn't know how to explain the divorce. At that time, Qu's mother urged him to find someone to marry, just because he was afraid that he would have something to do with Lin Xiang. Now let Mother Lu say this, as if he really has something to do with Lin Xiang.

    Obedient to the sound, Qu Lang only denied that he liked Lin Xiang, but he did not deny the divorce. Thinking that Qu Lang had really divorced Shen Mingbei, Mother Qu felt dizzy.

    Covering her heart, she rummaged for her phone in her purse: "I'll ask Xiaobei to see what good things you've done!"

    Mother Qu went to the side to make a phone call. Qu Lang looked at Mother Lu and said to her, "It's not your time to worry about our family's affairs. If you really want to save Lu Chen, find a lawyer and quickly raise money to fill the hole. Of course he can come out."

    Mother Lu was not reconciled and didn't want to leave. Qu Lang frowned, turned around and called the servant aunt to come, and dragged Mother Lu directly outside the gate of the villa.

    Qu Lang said to Mother Lu, "You can stay here as long as you want."

    In fact, regarding Lu Chen's misappropriation of funds, originally Qu Lang just wanted to teach Lu Chen a lesson, send people in for a few days, and have a long memory.

    The two of them have grown up together since childhood. Just as Mother Lu said, when Qu Lang was kidnapped, if it wasn't for Lu Chen by his side, he wouldn't have been able to get someone to rescue him.

    The two of them are a deadly friendship!

    However, after Qu Lang saw the details of Lu Chen's misappropriation of funds, Qu Lang wanted to throw Lu Chen into the sea to feed the fish. Just reporting the case and letting Lu Chen accept the legal sentence was Qu Lang's last restraint.

    Lu Chen misappropriated the funds, and at first it was just to fill the gap of the Lu family. Later, Lin wanted to come back, starting from using investment to steal Shen Mingbei's role, and then to steal Shen Mingbei's various endorsements, and the mercenaries from all walks of life spread rumors to smear Shen Mingbei's reputation...

    However, Lin Xiang was limited by his height, so many print advertisements could not be received at all. Shen Mingbei naturally had his way of cooperation. No matter how much they paid, Shen Mingbei could not let Shen Mingbei lose all his jobs. I don't know if it was because they were out of breath. In the end, they even shot a movie twice, regardless of the cost, just to teach Shen Mingbei a lesson.

    Qu Lang repeatedly listened to the recording sent by Shen Mingbei that day.

    It was also at this time that Qu Lang didn't really realize what happened to Shen Mingbei.

    Qu Lang was angry, but had nowhere to vent.

    He felt distressed for Shen Mingbei, so he contacted Director Gong to arrange the later stage and arrange

    When it was released, Shen Mingbei's works that he had devoted his efforts to have the opportunity to be displayed in front of everyone.

    When Director Gong knew that Qu Lang was going to invest money, he was very excited.

    Gong Yi said: "You are really insightful, "Guo Zhan" will never let you down, as long as you give it a chance, "Guo Zhan" can conquer everyone."

    Qu Lang didn't pay much attention to Gong Yi's compliments, he even wanted to laugh at himself, if he had the vision, why would he be where he is today.

    However, Qu Lang wanted to support Shen Mingbei, so he asked Gong Yi to let go of it.

    In fact, the release of "National War" with the same name and script was too urgent, and with Wen Gao's version of the show, when arranging the release, at first, no matter how much money Qu Lang promised, the theater was not willing to arrange films for them. Qu Lang smashed a lot of money and bought the seats for the first week. The theater was relieved and said that a part of it will be queued first, and if it is good, it will be added.

    In fact, Qu Lang has already thought about it. If Shen Mingbei's "National War" is not so good, he will go to buy a movie theater, and other people's theaters will not be arranged for Shen Mingbei, so he will arrange it himself.

    Fortunately, Shen Mingbei is good enough, and Gong Yi is not a vain name.

    "National War" is so hot that everyone is talking about it, and everyone is paying attention to Shen Mingbei's efforts. Qu Lang is very happy.

    Qu Lang was looking forward to Shen Mingbei finding out what he was doing behind his back. He watched the box office rise and was waiting for Shen Mingbei to take care of him almost every moment.

    Shen Mingbei went to the prairie to record a variety show. When he was not in the capital, he would buy a ticket whenever he was free.

    Sitting in the cinema, his eyes were full of Shen Mingbei, and everyone around him was talking about Shen Mingbei's role "Qin Jiao".

    Hearing their praise, Qu Lang would be happy for Shen Mingbei.

    Hearing someone say that Shen Mingbei was so thin in the early stage of the movie that he was too dedicated to his work, Qu Lang felt that he was honored.

    Qu Lang was happy, even happier than Director Gong wrote him a letter of thanks.

    It's a pity that Shen Mingbei no longer pays attention to the situation of "National War". Except for the necessary publicity, Shen Mingbei hardly pays attention to any progress. Shen Mingbei doesn't even know that the movie will be released, and it is not just because of Gong Yi.

    Qu Lang wanted Shen Mingbei to know, but he felt that it was too hypocritical to tell him directly, as if he wanted to repay his kindness.

    Qu Lang waited day by day, waiting for Shen Mingbei to find out.

    The result is always in vain.

    Shen Mingbei joined a new crew again and was about to make a suspense drama. He had already come out.

    Only then did Qu Lang realize that Shen Mingbei never looked back, always moved forward, and he didn't care about the past.

    And he was just the trash he threw in place.

    How could an abandoned person, a person left in the past, attract Shen Mingbei's attention again?

    When Qu Lang thought of this, he couldn't help but want to cry. Qu Lang occasionally wondered, how could he have so many tears?

    "First Evolution"

    Crying is actually the most useless emotion.

    Wiping away his tears, Qu Lang still wants to level the way for Shen Mingbei.

    Shen Mingbei received a call from Mother Qu, who asked him why he divorced.

    Shen Mingbei was silent for a few seconds, and felt sorry for Mother Qu. After all, Mother Qu was really kind to him, and it hurts him as if he were his own son.

    "Qu Lang and I have always been at odds with each other. It's good for me and him to be separated."

    Hearing this, Mother Qu sighed. The boat was done. She knew that persuasion was useless, so she said, "If you are free, come back and see me."

    Shen Mingbei agreed.

    But Mother Qu and Shen Mingbei both knew that this "free time" didn't know when it was, maybe it was because of no fate.

    Mother Qu thought for a while and said to Shen Mingbei, "If you are wronged, you can come and tell me that I really treat you as a child and hurt you."

    Shen Mingbei "um" for a moment.

    The two didn't talk too much, because they both knew that after the divorce, their relationship would not go back to the way it used to be.

    ...

    Lu Chen went in and reported it on the financial news.

    But people who don't follow financial news aren't paying attention.

    Shen Mingbei was the one who didn't pay attention.

    He didn't know the news of the bankruptcy of Lu's real estate until he found Lao Yang who recommended Ran Yisheng to join him, according to his sister-in-law's memory.

    "Lu's bankruptcy, I'm afraid I won't be able to get the money back."

    Ran Yisheng's friend Lao Yang also had a bad look on his face. He saw Shen Mingbei who came to the door, and after understanding Shen Mingbei's intention, he said, "I also joined Lao Ranla, obviously the boss of the Lu family can still do it. I can get in touch, and the dividend was distributed last month, who knows that he will go in this month."

    "It wasn't you who brought him in, but someone from the Lu family that my uncle knew?" Shen Mingbei was a little curious.

    Shen Mingbei originally thought that it was Lao Yang who had great supernatural powers and knew the Lu family.

    It turned out to be someone my uncle knew?

    Lao Yang nodded, and he didn't know if it was to shirk responsibility or if it was true, he said to Shen Mingbei, "Lao Ran said that he and Lao Lu have been friends for more than ten years, and the two of them are very familiar, otherwise I would You won't be putting that much money into it."

    "Do you know the old Lu that my uncle knew?" The friendship of more than ten years is indeed related to Lu's real estate.

    Shen Mingbei felt that he had caught some clues, and he wanted to verify with this person.

    Lao Yang gave Shen Mingbei an address and said, "It's here, every time he meets us, it's here. Now the phone can't get through. If you can find someone, let me know, and I'll be able to do it right away. arrive!"

    Shen Mingbei thanked Lao Yang. Before the two separated, Lao Yang said to Shen Mingbei with some uncertainty: "Actually, I just doubt it, I know Lao Ran well. Every time we go out for a drink, Lao Lu looks like It's like there is a handle in Lao Ran's hands, Lao Lu can be regarded as obedient to Lao Ran..."

    "Thank you for telling me this." Shen Mingbei thanked the people.

    Lao Yang was full of expectations for Shen Mingbei. He said, "I'm counting on getting back the money I invested. If I can find Lu Ke's grandson, I want to beat him!"

    "Lu Ke?" Shen Mingbei repeated the name.

    Lao Yang nodded.

    Shen Mingbei smiled, his eyebrows curved, and he thanked and said goodbye in earnest.

    In fact, still have to thank Qu Lang, because of his existence, and because of the close relationship between Lu and Qu, Shen Mingbei can remember so many messed up people. Lu Ke is the son of Lu Ming's eldest brother. Although he is the same age as Lu Chen, the age difference is relatively large.

    To a certain extent, Lu Ke and Lu Chen still have a competitive relationship in controlling Lu's real estate.

    So why did Lu Ke meet his uncle?

    Shen Mingbei didn't quite understand. He wanted to ask Lu Ke a little. Of course, Shen Mingbei had Lu Ke's contact information. However, seeing the news that Lu Chen entered, he couldn't help frowning slightly.

    Is the Lu family so short of money?

    In fact, there is a very simple way, just ask Qu Lang directly.

    Shen Mingbei didn't really want to deal with Qu Lang, not because he still had any thoughts about Qu Lang, but because Qu Lang was too troublesome. No matter what Qu Lang was for, he suddenly realized that the prodigal son turned back and made Qu Lang feel that he liked him. These were all very troublesome things for Shen Mingbei.

    Shen Mingbei was struggling, but after the holiday, he returned to the studio to shoot "Time Overlap". <

    After adjusting his state, Shen Mingbei stood at the murder scene on the set. Bai Song and his partner Qian Qian, who were police officers, were investigating the murderer's motive.

    Qin Yi, who is a man disguised as a woman, can do a lot of fighting moves. "Time Overlap" is a story about the five scumbag police officer Bai Song and the beautiful thug Qian Qian solve a case together. In the finale, Qian Qian revealed her identity, but she was actually the villain BSS, a man disguised as a woman and lurking beside Bai Song.

    The first version of the character set Qianqian is not a man disguised as a woman.

    In the past, the director and the screenwriter were arguing. Although women are beautiful and sassy, ​​it is difficult to find suitable people for artists who can be found in the entertainment industry. Of course, it was mainly because of the limited remuneration of "Time Overlap" that there were no suitable actresses.

    The artist hired at the beginning looked okay, but the action scene after the top was a disaster.

    For this reason, the director and the screenwriter had a fierce dispute, so he changed the script and changed Qianqian into a man disguised as a woman.

    Now Shen Mingbei and Qin Yi are studying the case together, Qin Yi said the line: "The truth actually exists objectively, what we have to do is to find it. Everything you encounter is actually the truth. Part of it, if it can't be caught, it will run away too!"

    Hearing Qin Yi's words, Shen Mingbei's mind flashed, the whole person was stunned, and did not answer the following lines.

    Director Dai shouted "Ka" and asked Shen Mingbei what was going on.

    Shen Mingbei recovered and said to Director Dai, "I'm sorry, Director Dai, I have something to confirm."

    The case that is being filmed is the murder of a wife. The wife was in a car accident while walking on the road. The husband was originally indignant to pursue the murderer, but after receiving a sum of money, he chose to settle down. The original case ended here. The husband was scolded at most for two words of indifference, but the wife's younger brother found out that the husband bought a huge amount of insurance for his wife and shared the money equally with the murderer.

    The story begins when the wife's younger brother accidentally discovers that the murderer married his wife in a smart way, and goes back a little bit back to the scene of the crime.

    It was the same car accident, although the situation was a little different, but Shen Mingbei felt inexplicably familiar.

    He felt that he was just like the younger brother, with a flash of inspiration, and eagerly wanted to ask his sister-in-law, why she chose to issue a letter of understanding in the first place!

    Shen Mingbei ran from the studio to the hospital.

    In the ward, Shen Xin was lying down and recuperating. She has been doing well these past few days. The doctor said, "Fortunately, she is young, so she can still come back after being raised."

    When she entered the hospital this time, Shen Xin had already made up her mind to divorce Ran Yisheng, and then appealed to Ran Yisheng for domestic violence or something.

    Shen Mingbei was originally happy for the little aunt, but she was happy that the little aunt finally looked away, and didn't mention what she heard from the second uncle. But after meeting my uncle's friend, I learned that Ran Yisheng knew someone from the Lu family, not even an ordinary member of the Lu family, but after Lu Ke.

    The matter of my sister-in-law's letter of understanding, like a weed, was growing wildly in Shen Mingbei's heart.

    Seeing Shen Mingbei come in, Shen Xin greeted him with a smile.

    "Why is Xiaobei here? Didn't you mean to go back to work today?"

    Today is the weekend. Ran He is in the hospital bed. After seeing Shen Mingbei, he stands up and calls "brother".

    Since the last time Ran He was admitted to the hospital by Ran Yisheng, Ran He's attitude towards his mother and Shen Mingbei has changed, and he is very well behaved when he sees Shen Mingbei.

    Especially when he knew that his mother was considering divorce from his father recently, and Ran He supported his mother's decision 100%.

    Shen Mingbei gave a "um", and then asked Ran He to go out first: "My aunt and I have something to talk about."

    Ran He nodded and said he went out for a walk.

    Only Shen Mingbei and Shen Xin were left in the ward. The aunt and nephew looked at each other for a long time. Shen Xin lowered her eyes and said, "Xiao Bei, should you want to ask me something?"

    Shen Mingbei nodded.

    "Actually, since you went to Lao Yang, I can probably guess what you will know. Lao Ran and the Lu family have known each other for a long time. The second brother has indeed been in touch with Lao Ran over the years. Lao Ran I thought he did something covert, but what he did, how could he not leave traces."

    A trace of regret flashed on Shen Xin's face, she told Shen Mingbei what Ran Yisheng asked her to do after the death of Shen's father and mother.

    "Lao Ran came back and told me that my brother and sister-in-law are dead, but we still have to live, and we will take care of you no matter how bad it is. So I took the compensation and issued a letter of understanding..."

    "Although I feel sorry for eldest brother, but I think eldest brother and sister-in-law know that you have a good life and can rest assured. But Lao Ran soon ran out of money..."

    "After you left, I gradually discovered that Lao Ran and Lu's people are very familiar, and Lu Ke is always available to Lao Ran."

    "Lao Ran drank too much once, and I tried to talk too much..."

    Walking out of the ward, Shen Mingbei felt that walking was a little top-heavy.

    My sister-in-law said that it was not a coincidence that Father Shen went to Huaxi Road to buy cakes, it was the way that Ran Yisheng pointed. Ran Yisheng pointed the way, not for any other reason, but because Lin wanted to say that he liked it, and he wanted to eat it on his birthday.

    After the car accident, the compensation was actually paid by Lu Ke. Shen Xin went to withdraw the money at the time, paying special attention to the name of the person who made the payment, not the driver who caused the accident.

    Everything is just right.

    When and where the cart should not have appeared, an out-of-control cart appeared.

    Back then, Shen Mingbei always thought that the car that his father drove was an ordinary car accident, and even occasionally recalled that if the car were a little faster, he would also die.

    Shen Mingbei survived by luck.

    If the car went any faster, their whole family would die together.

    Shen Xin said that she had been feeling guilty all these years, but she was powerless to change.

    She is selfish, and she doesn't want to affect her family because of the past.

    Shen Xin didn't dare to look at Shen Mingbei: "Xiao Bei, I know I'm sorry for you. You helped me so much, but I treat you like this."

    "I'm sorry, Xiaobei, I know I should have told you earlier. But the longer this kind of thing is delayed, the less afraid to say it..."

    Shen Xin sobbed: "I'm sorry, Xiaobei! Woohoo..."

    Shen Mingbei was standing in the hospital corridor, not knowing where he should go.

    "Mingbei, what are you doing here?"

    With a fruit basket in his hand, Gu Yibai appeared beside Shen Mingbei with a smile on his face. Seeing that Shen Mingbei didn't answer, he didn't feel embarrassed to talk to himself. He explained, "I've always wanted to come and see your sister-in-law. I happened to be free this weekend, so I came here. I didn't expect to meet you."

    "Mingbei, are you going to leave after reading my sister-in-law? I'll put my things down and leave, let's go together."

    Gu Yibai was in a hurry. He and Shen Xin could be considered to have met several times. However, Shen Xin before had a natural hostility to lawyers, so he was not very familiar with them.

    If it's all right, Gu Yibai wouldn't mind brushing his favorability in front of Shen Xin, but now that Shen Mingbei was leaving, he put the fruit basket in the ward and followed Shen Mingbei.

    The two left in tandem.

    Qu Lang, who thought about coming over to inquire about the matter with Shen Xin, was just as good. He saw Gu Yibai hurriedly chasing him out. Qu Lang subconsciously took a few steps, just in time to see Shen Mingbei reaching out to block the elevator door, waiting for Gu Yibai to squeeze in...

    Have the two of them developed a relationship where they can see their relatives together?

    Are you late?

    Lang felt like he wanted to cry again.
