Reborn in 2014: A One-Man Tycoon

"Go back after you finish breakfast. I've told you before, I have a girlfriend, it's not appropriate for you to stay here."

In order to put the elderly couple at ease, Meng Chuan had no choice but to tell them the truth.

"I see."

This time Alice complied.

She didn't praise the food as enthusiastically as she had yesterday.

She quietly finished her porridge.

It was precisely because she didn't speak that the atmosphere at the dinner table became very dull.

"Then I'll go first."

Alice put down her chopsticks and got up without looking back and walked outside.

However, for some reason, Alice's back view looked somewhat lonely at this moment.

It even makes one feel a little sorry for them.

"This...you brat, can't you be a little more tactful? Do you have to be so blunt?"

Zhang Mei slapped Meng Chuan on the shoulder in anger!

Meng Chuan's words hurt the girl deeply.

Even Zhang Mei, as a mother, found it hard to listen to.

"Exactly! You're backing down now that you've got your pants on, you brat! Who taught you that?"

Meng Jianguo glared angrily at Meng Chuan.

Even he felt that Meng Chuan was a total scumbag.

"Mom and Dad, are you being reasonable? You're the ones who want me to break up with her right now!"

Meng Chuan looked miserable.

What does it mean to deny something after putting on your pants?

He didn't even take his pants off!

Meng Chuan always considered himself an obedient child.

Now that you've listened, it's assumed you're the one who's wrong?

"You still think you're right? If you were right, you shouldn't have done this stupid thing in the first place."

Zhang Mei poked Meng Chuan's temple as she spoke.

"What did I do? I didn't do anything!"

Meng Chuan tried his best to explain.

"You didn't do it? If you didn't do it, how could that girl have come to your bed on her own... Oh my, even as her mother, I can't bring myself to say it."

Zhang Mei said with exasperation:

"I'm warning you, Qian'er is a good girl. If you keep acting like this, and she runs away, then you'll be crying!"

As Zhang Mei spoke, she got up, shouldered her hoe, and went to work in the field.

She could only try to avoid seeing or hearing about such things.

"Dad, look at Mom, she gets angry after just a few words."

Meng Chuan looked at Meng Jianguo, seeking comfort.

Meng Jianguo, however, had a cold expression on his face.

He hesitated for a moment, then lowered his voice and said to Meng Chuan:

“Son, let me tell you, sometimes when a man is out and about, he may inevitably play along or make a mistake.”

"But you can do whatever you want outside, you can't bring it home!"

Meng Chuan stared at Meng Jianguo as if he had seen a ghost!

Is this really my dad?

My own father actually has such awareness? How could he say something like that?

"Don't look at me like that. You're all grown up now. Today, Dad will talk to you about some things between men."

Meng Jianguo frowned, speaking in a lecturing tone:

"Those women outside are all just fleeting pleasures. You might be interested in something new, but they're all destined to be short-lived."

“We’re all men, we all have penises, we need to know responsibility and be able to take charge.”

Meng Jianguo's words were extremely insightful.

Meng Chuan was stunned.

This honest, unassuming old father, who had lived a simple life for half his life, was actually able to spout such profound truths.

Not simple!

When my dad was young, he must have been a man of many tastes and experiences!

Otherwise, it would be impossible to comprehend such profound wisdom about life.

"Dad, are you that outstanding? Does Mom know?"

Meng Chuan swallowed hard.

His father's image in his mind was completely overturned.

"What kind of talk is that? I'm teaching you a lesson, so you can't say things like that to your mother!"

Meng Jianguo had a stern face, looking dignified and awe-inspiring.

"Okay, okay, I won't tell, I won't tell."

Meng Chuan suppressed a laugh.

Now let's talk about Alice.

Alice returned to her guesthouse.

Natasha lay on the bed, her face pale.

"How are you doing?"

Alice asked with concern.

Natasha rushed back yesterday after dealing with the assassin.

When Natasha returned and didn't see Alice, she was extremely worried.

Fortunately, Alice texted her in time to let her know that she was safe.

Natasha then waited for Alice at the guesthouse.

"Those assassins last night were no ordinary people; they were all mercenaries. If it weren't for a female expert suddenly appearing later, I probably wouldn't be back."

Natasha said in a serious tone.

The assassin who lured Natasha away last night was very strong.

After Shadow Butterfly took care of the two assassins who came after her, she also helped Natasha take care of the other assassin.

Because it was too dark at night, and Yingdie had not uttered a single word from beginning to end.

Natasha had no idea who Shadow Butterfly was.

But since Shadow Butterfly can help her, she must not be an enemy.

So Natasha and Shadow Butterfly dug a pit and buried the three assassins.

"That guy last night must have been Meng Chuan's bodyguard, probably someone Fifth Uncle assigned to him."

Alice said.

Alice was very flustered at the time.

But the female warrior appeared with Meng Chuan.

Alice couldn't think of any other possibility besides him being Meng Chuan's bodyguard.

"It seems that those in my family who don't want me to live are starting to panic."

Alice said with a somewhat gloomy expression.

“Miss, I think we should go back to the family as soon as possible…”

Natasha paused for a moment before speaking.

"No! I can't go back yet. If I were in the family, the assassin from last night wouldn't have come with a knife, he would have been carrying a gun."

Alice shook her head resolutely.

In a country where guns are prohibited, she seemed to have broken free from the protection of her family.

But the assassins didn't dare to act recklessly.

After all, the killer's goal is money.

Unless absolutely necessary, an assassin would not dare to provoke a nation's nerves.

Therefore, she is relatively safer.

"We need to strengthen security. If it weren't for Meng Chuan's bodyguards last night, the consequences would have been unimaginable."

Natasha said, still somewhat shaken.

"Yes! We really have to go."

Alice stood up with a complicated expression and walked to the window.

Looking towards the direction where Meng Chuan's home is located.

After a long pause, he continued:

“Let’s go back to Shanghai! Uncle Wu is here in Shanghai, so I’m safe.”

Alice can only rely on Meng Chuan and Fifth Master now.

Unfortunately, Meng Chuan did not welcome her.

This is a fact that she cannot change in a short period of time.

That leaves only Fifth Master.

"Then I'll pack my things."

Natasha got up.

"Is your foot okay?"

Alice asked.

"I was stabbed, but I've already stitched myself up. It won't affect my driving."

Natasha said calmly.

It was as if they were talking about something very ordinary.

Actually, the two of them didn't have much to pack.

The two quickly went downstairs and checked out of the room.

However, before leaving, Alice hesitated for a moment and then sent Meng Chuan a text message:

"I should repay your life-saving grace with my body. Whenever you want, I'll be waiting for you in Shanghai."
