Chapter 370 Funeral

Chapter 370 Funeral
Paris, France, the city of romance, Fidi sat on a park bench, looking at the pigeon in front of him, and said, "This is my last chip."

The seductive woman sitting next to Fiddy stroked the cat and asked, "Dolan, Luke, who else?"

Fiddy said, "I don't know who this person is yet. I will give you the time, place and complete information about the third person. Luke and the third person are each worth 24 million US dollars. Dolan, million US dollars. The time limit is within hours of my release of the information. You know Luke's power, don't let the news leak out."

The woman said, "There is no shortage of people in this world who are willing to risk their lives for money. When will you sign an agreement with the mother and son?"

Fiddy looked into the distance: "Two hours later, at the cafe across the street."

The woman said, "This is a huge sum of money. Do you really have the heart to sell it at a low price of tens of millions?"

Fidi said, "It takes time to cash in. What I lack most now is time. It's already yours." He handed the briefcase to the woman.

The bodyguard behind the woman took the briefcase. The woman stood up holding the cat and said, "You will succeed." Then she left with the bodyguard.

Fiddy laughed. He believed in what his teacher Luke said: No matter how many times you fail, you are not a loser until the end. It was Luke who taught him to fight to the death, and this fight was now to be used on Luke.

……

Emily returned to France that afternoon. In the evening, after investigating the bodies of the gangsters, the police identified the two gunmen through investigation and trapped them on the highway at 8 pm. In the end, one of the two gunmen died and the other was injured.

The three gangsters were all former bodyguards of the Xue family. After Feidi and Xue Bing divorced, they were kicked out of the Xue family by the butler Bai Qi, on the grounds that they were all Feidi's men. Feidi provided the three gangsters with a place to stay and subsidized them with a sum of money every month. He originally planned to use them for Xue Bing's wedding, but Xue Bing ran away very fast and went to New Zealand accidentally.

When Fiddy, who was short of money, was about to dismiss the three people, he received a call from Emily. After the Ghost 03 incident, Luke found that Fiddy had ulterior motives, and considering his merits and old friendship, he imprisoned him in Paris. At the same time, Luke also controlled Fiddy's finances. As long as Fiddy had no money, he would have no way to move. Man proposes, God disposes. Emily came to Fiddy's rescue and gave him a large sum of money.

Unlike Duanmu Yuanlv, Cui Jian didn't have too many ideas. He left work after the project was completed and contacted Ye Lan. Ye Lan said a lot of sweet words as usual, and then said she was busy. Cui Jian went to the supermarket to buy ingredients on the way home. He hadn't cooked properly for a long time. He found a casserole for sale in the supermarket and bought it immediately.

Cui Jianting likes to eat big pot stews, cabbage, pork, corrugated noodles, preserved vegetables, potatoes, etc. are put into a casserole and stewed. These ingredients absorb the soup and make people salivate at the sight. However, such dishes, especially the pork, will become very soft and mushy. People who like it like it very much, but people who don't like it don't like it.

Cui Jian opened the clay pot, mixed the steamed rice into the clay pot, and then covered it. After living in Korea for two years, his diet was somewhat influenced and he began to like bibimbap.

The doorbell rang, Cui Jian glanced at the monitor, walked to the main door and opened it. Xueying and her sister Yun Xueshan were in front of the door. Xueying was dragging two suitcases and looked at Cui Jian with a smile: Didn't expect it?
Cui Jian signaled, and Xueying and Yun Xueshan each pulled two suitcases into the villa, leaving the vehicles and bodyguards outside. As soon as they entered the living room, Dog Nose Xueying said in surprise, "There are delicious foods."

Cui Jian was dissatisfied: "You are so rude."

Xueying asked: "Is it better to be polite and have a meal, or to be rude and have a meal?"

Cui Jian smiled but did not answer, and asked, "What's going on?"

Yun Xueshan said: "Xueying received the admission letter from Hancheng Medical University."

Cui Jian said: "Congratulations."

Yun Xueshan said: "Xueying will trouble you in the future."

Xueying said bluntly: "What trouble? I have permanent residency, right?"

Cui Jian said perfunctorily: "Yes, yes, go wash your hands and get the dishes and chopsticks."

Yun Xueshan looked around and said, "Then I'll leave first."

The two of them didn't even bother to keep her, and said in unison, "Goodbye."

Yun Xueshan left reluctantly. The two watched her close the iron door, then they looked at each other. Xueying went to wash her hands and said, "Do you think they are sick? Because one of the gangsters from the Hancheng Forum is an associate professor at a medical university, they persuaded me to change universities. They didn't say that because the gangsters are human, we should die together."

Cui Jian said: "You should be thankful that I have a girlfriend, otherwise she wouldn't let you come to Hancheng." He opened the refrigerator and took out some ingredients such as mushrooms, intending to stir-fry them and mix them into the casserole.

Cui Jian didn't know that Xueying was much smarter than him and had already noticed the strangeness.

Xueying's brother Xuesong is a top scholar. He fell in love with a little girl in high school. His family did not stop him, but thought that he could learn valuable life experience. Why are they so worried about her and Cui Jian? Yun Xinyue and Yun Xueshan are both businesswomen with open-minded views. Not to mention not getting married in the future, even if they marry a Martian, as long as they are happy, they will not object.

Xueying set her sights on Xuesong, who was not an insider but was someone Yun Xinyue and Yun Xueshan trusted. Xueying asked Xuesong a few questions, and when she eavesdropped on Xuesong's conversation with the mother and daughter about Cui Jian, she guessed the truth.

Xueying found it hard to accept this result. After living with Cui Jian for more than half a year, she could understand Cui Jian's attitude towards his biological parents, which was disdainful, indifferent, and even hostile. Influenced by this, she always believed that Cui Jian's biological parents were not good people. She didn't expect that Cui Jian's mother was her mother. The image of Yun Xinyue collapsed in Xueying's heart.

After the Hancheng Forum incident, Yun Xinyue and Yun Xueshan returned to the Yun family. Xueying was very happy that they were still alive and discussed the philosophy of Qi Sha with everyone. When it came to the topic of Qi Sha, Xueying couldn't help but ask: What do those people who sell children think? Are they qualified to be parents?

Yun Xinyue wanted to brush it off, but Xueying wanted to hear her answer. Yun Xinyue's answer was: Everyone has low points, and perhaps some mothers are in trouble and have to make decisions that go against their wishes. Without waiting for Xueying to ask again, she went back to her room with the excuse of feeling unwell.

On the way to Hancheng, Xueying asked Yun Xueshan why she was worried about her relationship with Cui Jian. Yun Xueshan replied that Cui Jian's social status was too low and his experience was complicated. Xueying was a little princess and her life should be carefree.

"What are you thinking about?" Cui Jian turned his head and saw Xueying staring at the water in a daze.

Xueying turned off the faucet, dried her hands, and asked, "What do you want to eat?"

Cui Jian lifted the lid of the casserole. Xueying looked closely and asked, "What's in this big bag?"

Cui Jian replied: "The pork trotter bun with preserved vegetables has a circle around the pig's trotter that is clearly fat and lean." He picked up chopsticks and tore off a piece of lean meat from the soft and rotten pork trotter bun and put it into Xueying's mouth.

After chewing, Xueying said in surprise: "I have never liked pure lean pork, it is too astringent, but this is okay, this is delicious."

Cui Jian said: "It will take another 20 minutes, let's go tidy up the room first."

Xueying was dissatisfied: "Then why did you ask me to wash my hands?" Cui Jian replied: "I asked you to wash your hands and get the dishes and chopsticks. The key point is to get the dishes and chopsticks, not to wash your hands."

Xueying waved her hand and said, "Don't worry, I'll take care of the dishes. I'll go pack my luggage first, and you are not allowed to eat secretly." After saying that, without waiting for Cui Jian to react, she dragged her suitcase and took the elevator to go upstairs.

The meal was served in 20 minutes. Xueying said a lot of things. She would live on campus from Monday to Friday and go back to the villa on Saturday and Sunday. Cui Jian asked: Why are you back?

Xueying replied angrily: Come back for dinner.

Xueying did not tell Cui Jian what she knew. She secretly thought that it was a good thing for Cui Jian that he did not know that Yun Xinyue was his mother. The topic also turned to Xuesong. Cui Jian had a good impression of this young man. He learned that he fell in love with a girl from the Lin family at first sight on Christmas Eve, so he asked Xueying to convey his blessings.

Xueying had seen Lao Tu wearing a mask, but she had never seen his true face. The photos released by the police were all mosaiced. Xueying didn't think about it at all, and just thought that Lao Tu might be a senior student at the medical university, and didn't connect the information together. Xueying casually asked Cui Jian why he didn't accompany Ye Lan to the Christmas dinner, and Cui Jian told her that he spent Christmas in the United States.

Here we have to mention Duanmu's power. He not only forged Cui Jian's entry and exit records, but also flight information and airport surveillance footage. Cui Jian was very impressed and had many questions. Did he let the double wear a silicon mask? How did he pass the fingerprint test? And so on?
Duanmu refused to answer this question because it was a secret among the special forces.

The secret is that Duanmu has someone above him.

The above refers to the senior executive of the US intelligence and security department. The senior executive directly contacted the airport boss to let the people pass through customs. He also contacted the Hancheng Customs to let the people pass through. As for the reason, it is related to US homeland security, don't ask.

This kind of person should not be used often. He can be regarded as one of Duanmu's trump cards and should not be used on Cui Jian. However, Cui Jian rarely asks him for help, so how can he say no?
With Xueying around, the whole villa seemed to be lively. Listening to Xueying shouting and yelling while washing dishes in the kitchen, Cui Jian drank a cup of hot tea made by Xueying and browsed his phone comfortably.

……

On December 12, Cui Jian drove to Ye's house early in the morning and had breakfast with Ye Ye and Ye Lan. After breakfast, Ye Lan went back to her room and changed into a set of clothes for the funeral. She wore a black plain suit and a black round hat with a black veil in front of it, which made her look mysterious and sexy.

Cui Jian took two steps forward and held Ye Lan's hand, staring into her eyes through the black veil: "You are so beautiful."

Hearing this tone, Ye Lan knew what Cui Jian meant. She bit her lower lip and smiled, and asked, "Do you like it?"

Mr. Ye, who was reading a newspaper, put away the newspaper and left the living room before Cui Jian answered.

Ye Lan smiled at Ye Ye's back, hugged Cui Jian's right arm, walked out of the house, and got on the back seat of the car. As soon as the car started, Ye Lan stretched out the partition. Although half an hour's journey could not do much, it was enough to touch the little hand.

Arriving at the funeral, Ye Lan and Cui Jian immediately put on poker faces after getting off the car. Ye Lan shook hands with Mr. Lin who came to greet her, and helped Mr. Lin walk while whispering. Cui Jian followed closely behind.

Afterwards, Cui Jian and Ye Lan went to pay their respects to Lin Hai's remains. At this time, Cui Jian finally felt a little regretful. There were six other people at the table at that time. Why did he choose Lin Hai? Otherwise, he could discuss homework with his sister today. There was no need to suffer here in the cold weather.

Seeing Lin Hai's body, Ye Lan couldn't help crying. It was more like fear than sadness. The criminals raised their guns and shot, choosing people at random, and the wealth and status of the people at the main table were similar.

After viewing the body, they walked around and came to Lin Hai's wife and two underage children. Ye Lan was very experienced and stepped forward to hold Lin Hai's wife's hand and spoke comfortingly. Even Cui Jian knew that once Lin Hai died, Lin's wife was ready to break up with the Lin family. She had no feelings for Lin Hai. But at this moment, Lin's wife still looked very sad.

Cui Jian nodded to Lin’s wife, and Lin’s wife responded that it was over.

The two of them turned to the side of the church, where there was a small buffet with more than a dozen snacks and some drinks, and tables and chairs were set up. Unlike the front of the church, people here were talking and laughing, and there was not much of a sad atmosphere. Of course, it was limited to smiling and laughing a little.

After Ye Lan arrived, several men came forward and one of them offered Ye Lan a drink. They were not trying to be courteous, but to discuss business. After all, Ye Lan had brought Cui Jian to the scene, which meant that the Ye family recognized Cui Jian's identity. Now mocking Cui Jian in person was equivalent to making things difficult for the Ye family.

The business they were discussing was related to the Christmas party. Ye Lan agreed to help Yun Xueshan reorganize the North American United Company. After Yun Xueshan sent Xueying to Hancheng, she went directly to Ye Lan. The two women talked until late at night and basically finalized the reorganization plan. People in the circle were well-informed and got the news a day earlier. Yun Xueshan had not arrived yet, so she went to Ye Lan first to find out if she could share a bowl of broth.

Li, Lin and Yun have invested a lot of money in the North American United Company, and the prospects were very good. Now there are three problems: the lawsuit, Li Jie's disappearance, and Lin Hai's death. Now Li Jie has given the power of attorney to Zhao Ai, and Lin's wife has hired a professional manager, leaving only the trouble of suing the authorities.

Cui Jian listened to the general situation nearby, and after Ye Lan left the crowd, he asked, "Do you need my help?"

Ye Lan was quite surprised: "Can you help?"

Cui Jian said: "Duanmu is very powerful in the United States." Yun Xueshan was only Duanmu's girlfriend in the agreement, and she announced to the public that they had broken up after the Christmas party.

Ye Lan reached out and pinched Cui Jian's face, and said with a smile: "No need, sister can handle it. Besides, if Duanmu can really help, there will be no room for negotiation."

Cui Jian was puzzled, and continued walking with Ye Lan. Ye Lan said, "If the test questions are too easy, every candidate can score above 145 points, and good students will have no advantage. On the contrary, if the test questions are difficult, the gap between students will be revealed. Everyone can do easy things, only difficult things can become resources."

Ye Lan said: "Even if you can easily solve the problem, I don't want you to do it, because this is my job, my business, understand?"

Cui Jian shook his head: "I don't understand."

Ye Lan asked: "If I use my boss's privileges to force you to take up a management position and not allow you to work, what will you do?"

Cui Jian: "I will obey my sister's arrangement."

Ye Lan smiled sweetly, and after thinking hard for a long time, she said, "You met your opponent in the ring. In order to help you win, I paid someone to cripple him, and you easily won the championship. Are you happy?"

Cui Jian replied: “Yes.”

Ye Lan looked at Cui Jian speechlessly. Should she be happy?
Cui Jian said, "I understand. My sister wants to have her own pride."

Ye Lan praised: "That's right. Also, don't call me sister anytime and anywhere."

Cui Jian asked, "Why?"

Ye Lan leaned close to Cui Jian's ear and said, "I won't tell you." She was feeling very excited when he kept calling her sister. How could she still have a good chat with him?
