This coastal city has never been snowed like this
The howling cold wind, mixed with large snowflakes, hit the face as painful as a knife.
Such abnormal weather is like a sudden disaster for people who are accustomed to the warm climate here. No one wants to go outside to experience its terribleness.
For those who have to wander around, the pain has to be endured
At that time, Mr. Ivan had no wealth that was as rich as a country, no high status, and even a house that could shelter from the wind and snow. He was only covered in thin clothes, wrapped in a trembling and hungry body, staggering forward on this snowy night.
A figure appeared not far ahead. Although he was wearing a thick coat, he still looked enchanting.
On such a night, even the wanderings who always wandered in the night disappeared. Ivan didn't know why this woman appeared here at this time, but it seemed that she was undoubtedly the only hope that she could still eat something today.
Hello, Miss, I...
Walking behind the woman, Ivan spoke carefully
In the huge wind, he didn't know if his small voice had been heard by the other party
But soon, the woman turned her head. In the wind and snow, there were some things in her expression that he couldn't understand.
Miss, can you give me some money or some food?
The tormenting hunger and cold made Ivan give up the euphemism
Good Ah!
But the woman suddenly laughed clearly, and then took his arm affectionately
I……
Shh! Don't talk, follow me, I'll take you to eat
Ivan was stunned and didn't know what medicine this woman was selling in the gourd, but the fragrance that could not even be blown away by the strong wind broke into his breath. He felt a little dizzy, and then followed her obediently into a store with a red light not far away.
Yo! Hello, sir...
The middle-aged woman in the store didn't seem to have anyone to bring business back on such a night, and it was brought back by the long-lost woman, so the speed of her smile on her face was really slow, and most of the time she saw Ivan's rough clothes suddenly disappeared.
Auntie, I will take the guests to the third floor north room and the guest hasn't eaten yet. Please ask the kitchen to get some food and bring it to you.
The woman beside her said, took out two bills and stuffed them into the middle-aged woman's hands, so the woman's smile and flattery came back:
OK OK OK Rose, please entertain the guests and rest. This cold weather is served immediately.
Ivan didn't know what happened, but he realized where he came
As the woman was pulled, she stepped on the wooden stairs and walked into the narrow hut. Under the dim red light, the woman finally let go of her arm, then pointed to the double bed that looked extremely huge in the small space, and said with a smile:
Please sit
I……
Ivan walked to the bed mechanically, but was embarrassed and didn't know whether to sit down, so he stood there at a loss.
Oh
The woman was amused by his appearance, sat down on the chair by the window, lifted the curtains up a small corner, looked out the window, and looked dimmed again. The food should be delivered immediately. Let's take a break for a while. You can live here tonight. Let's... chat and chat.
Um
Ivan was indeed tired and did not refuse. He sat down gently and sat down silently for a while. The woman lifted up the curtains from time to time and looked outside. Every time she looked, she looked a little sad.
I don't know how long it took, but a series of knocks on the door sounded
The woman got up and went to open the door, then brought a plate back
It's not much to eat, but it's almost enough for a person's portion
Ivan took the plate and thanked him. Although he wanted to take some image in front of this seductive woman, he could not resist the torture of hunger.
Have a big stutter
The woman didn't say anything anymore, just looked at him silently, with a calm expression on her face, not knowing whether it was joy or sorrow
When Ivan finished eating, she stepped forward and put the plate aside, then sat back to the window and said softly. Thank you
This...it should be up to me to say
Ivan doesn't understand why she thanked her
No, I should thank you
The woman opened a corner of the curtain and looked out, then turned around, if you hadn't appeared suddenly, I would have been unable to control myself and walked across the road.
……
Ivan didn't understand her words and threw a look at her inquiring
You come here
The woman waved to him, Ivan got up and walked to her side
She lifted the curtains again and signaled Yifan to look in the direction of her fingers. A man who was almost covered with snowflakes stood opposite the place where the two met just now.
Is he?
Let's sit down, let's chat
Ivan asked to sit down on the bed again, and the woman poured him a glass of water before speaking:
My name here is Qiangwei, but my real name is Cheng Zhaodi
Well, my name is...
You don't have to tell me your name. I just want to tell these words to a stranger and just forget them after listening to them. You don't have to remember this story or me.
I wanted to introduce myself but was interrupted, so Ivan had to nodded silently
You should know what my name means, that is, my parents hope that the next child can give birth to a boy with a woman named me, sooner or later, there will be a younger brother, my parents are not very lucky, and after me, he will give birth to a boy... I am three years younger than me
If a person's name does not belong to her, then her life is often the same
My life is entirely for my younger brother. I had to take care of his daily life when I was a child. When I grew up, I had to come out to earn tuition and money for him to marry a wife in the future.
Maybe you think this is unfair, or you may think it is a matter of course, but no matter what others think, no matter what I think, this is the reality
No matter how you think...it doesn't make any sense
But it's ridiculous. When we siblings grew up, one day... I found out that I fell in love with him
It’s not the sister’s love for her younger brother, it’s the woman’s love for her men and she loves her deeply, and sometimes I even...
When I pick up customers, I unconsciously imagine the man on me as him
Cheng Zhaodi hesitated for a moment when she mentioned picking up customers, but she still frankly said those two words.
He...did he know?
Ivan had some guesses in his mind, but he still asked softly
He knew Cheng Zhaodi nodded, once... when I went home, he was already asleep.
Every time I go home, he's asleep, but I go to his room and pretend to cover him with a quilt, but in fact I just want to see him
Sometimes it still...
That night I couldn't help but kiss him secretly, but he woke up all of a sudden. When I was panicked and wanted to escape, he...
Hold me in one hand
He was only fifteen years old at that time, but he was much stronger than me and I couldn't resist him, and... I didn't want to resist him. Things happened like this, and it has never stopped since then until now
Then you...
Ivan has already confirmed the identity of the man across the street, but he doesn't know what the situation is facing now.
As he grew up, he finally said he didn't want me to do this again. He said... he wanted to take me away
A happy smile appeared on Cheng Zhaodi's face. Do you know? What many women hope most for in their lives is that the man they love most in their lives will one day be willing to let go of everything and take her away when he said that to me, I really felt that I was happy as if I was going to die.
……
Ivan had no way of understanding that feeling, but he believed that what Cheng Zhaodi said was true, he just didn't know how to respond to her
Just tonight he stole a passbook from his house and prepared a ticket to the north. As long as I crossed the road just now, we can face a brand new life together in the future. In fact, I almost walked over, but fortunately you appeared in time. Haha... When he saw me holding you, he should be very disappointed and sad...
Why?
Ivan couldn't help asking
Because he is my brother
Cheng Zhaodi smiled, her smile was very dull. My biggest dream in my life was to be his woman, but I can't forget that I am his sister. He will be in the college entrance examination next year. And his grades are very good. One day, he will become an excellent man, and I... just a lady. If I follow him today, I will ruin my brother's life. My name is Cheng Zhaodi, which belongs to him. My life also belongs to him. I can't just ruin him.
But……
Ivan wanted to say something, but found himself unable to refute
There is nothing, but if I am just an ordinary woman, then I can let go of my mind and do everything I want to do. But I am his sister, and I should do what my sister should do.
Cheng Zhaodi's tone was very firm, but her eyes were filled with deep helplessness.
Then do you plan to continue like this in the future? I don't think he will give up.
No, no, I will go on like this. Cheng Zhaodi shook her head, I didn't tell him, in fact, I haven't taken the customer for a long time, since... I learned that I was pregnant
Are you pregnant?
Ivan exclaimed in a low voice
That's right, Cheng Zhaodi nodded and stroked her lower abdomen with her right hand. I'm pregnant, it's his child
Then you are ready...
I plan to leave with our kids, but I won't go far because...
Because I hope to see him, I can come back secretly and look at him again
Cheng Zhaodi said, gently lifting the curtains
Cheng Gang...is that child?
Gu Wei's voice trembled, and she unconsciously grabbed Ivan's right hand
Well, Ivan nodded. In the early morning that day, the boy finally left. I don’t know how much resentful he was in his heart at that time. I’m afraid he didn’t know how much sacrifices Qiangwei made for him.
After that, Qiangwei and I also left there. When we said goodbye, I said something to her, "I said you are the most beautiful rose I have ever seen."
This is what Aunt Cheng’s tip means
Gu Wei said quietly
Yes
Ivan nodded again. She didn't even know my name, but told me a story that I would never forget in my life. She has hidden it very well over the years. Even though I was so close, I couldn't find her. When I finally found it... it was already a beauty.
That Cheng Gang now...
In his father's place
Ivan said softly, on the night when Qiangwei passed away, I was by her side. When I felt that she could no longer hold on, I immediately went to find her younger brother... Fortunately, the two of them finally met for the last time. You don’t need to worry about Xiaogang. I have arranged for him to receive the best treatment. Even if it is impossible to completely cure him, his father will take good care of him.
Um……
Gu Wei remembered the big child who was lonely in the yard again, and her nose felt sour.
Do you know? It was not you who cracked this game, but you Aunt Cheng
Yifan patted Gu Wei's back of his hand and said slowly. One night before the game started, she called me to her room. I tried to hide it from her, but soon I found that she had understood everything... It should have ended at that time.
Then why...
Gu Wei is puzzled
It's her meaning. Ivan replied, Do you remember the gift I just told you? During the time before Qiangwei's death, I would chat with her almost every night and she called me a stranger like she did at that time, so I still called her Qiangwei. She said she didn't want to fight for any property. The only thing she couldn't worry about in her life was Cheng Gang. I told her that I would treat Xiao Gang as my own son. Maybe... It was this biggest thought that Qiangwei would walk so fast. Qiangwei really likes you very much. She is a smart woman. She is more accurate than me in her eyes. She likes your innocence and kindness. One night she said to me:
If you really have anything to give to these children, you might as well give it to Xiaowei, that girl. She will be the best candidate. It is because of her words that I gave you the prompt because she should be the winner of the game and has the right to make such a request.
It turns out...is...
Gu Wei's tears finally filled her eyes. At this moment, she felt ten thousand regrets in her heart. She regretted not going to see more and spending more time with the old man.
OK, you don't have to be sad. Now this is the best result for Rose
Ivan was also a little sad, comforting Gu Wei and himself, so there is only one last story left. Do you want to listen to me?
Um
Gu Wei wiped away her tears and nodded vigorously
The story about Gao Tianyang actually happened to my father
Your father?
Um
Yifan waved his hand and told Gu Wei not to interrupt himself, and continued to say, "My father was the most famous craftsman in the villages at that time. He was famous at that time, and my family's conditions were also very good."
Although my mother died early, with my father's skills, I have lived a good life since I was a child and have no worries about food and clothing.
One day, a young man came to the village and found my father
He said he came here because of his reputation and made a special trip to ask my father to help him see something
Later I learned that it was a treasure heirloom of his family, a wonderful instrument. Unfortunately, no one could understand what it is for and how it is used. We don’t know where his ancestors came from, but it was indeed an amazing thing. My father took it and fiddled with it for a while and could not stop.
With my father's efforts to stay, the young man lived in my house for more than a month
He is only a few years older than me, his surname is Gao, and I always call him Gao Da Ge
In the past month, my father and Gao Laozi spent all their energy on that matter, but unfortunately there was no result in the end.
Later, Brother Gao said goodbye and left, and I thought this was the end, but my father seemed to be infected with an inner demon, staring at the sketch all day long, muttering things I don't understand
Later one day my father went out and when he came back, the thing appeared in my house again. But he hid it in the basement and told me not to tell anyone that I could only see my father there. Fortunately, I could almost take care of myself and his life. This kind of life lasted for more than two years. One day my father went out again. It took almost half a month to come back and he was in a dire strait. The thing was thrown in the corner and never touched again. Later, he suddenly began to carve a painting like crazy. After the carving, he painted it with paint and waited until he finished it, and called me to come and told me something.
Did Li Jian buy that painting?
Yes
Ivan nodded. After completing the "Remorse", his father seemed to have grown old all of a sudden. He told me that he couldn't put down the thing, so he went to Gao's house and stole him back and studied it for two years. Finally, he had some clues and knew its purpose, but the usage was still unclear. He thought that maybe Gao's brother had hidden his own privately and had some other supporting tools or information not informed at the same time. So he went there again, but heard that Gao's brother was ashamed and angry because he lost his ancestral treasure and could not relieve his emotions.
Ah!
Hearing this, Gu Wei couldn't help but scream and Ivan looked at her, touched her hair as comfort, and then continued to preach:
My father told me that Brother Gao did not marry, but he left a son who was still in his infancy when he passed away. I heard that he was from a marriage between Brother Gao and his death. The child was sent to a welfare institution for adoption. However, the registration of these related information was not perfect at that time. When my father finally found the orphanage for several days, he realized that the child had secretly escaped and disappeared. He only found out that the name Gao Tianyang was named.
Brother Tianyang...
Although he had realized the identity of the child, Gu Wei couldn't help but murmur when she heard the name
That's right, that child is Gao Tianyang. Ivan sighed. When my father passed away, he had two last wishes. One was to study the use of that tool and give Brother Gao an explanation; the other was to find the child and try his best to make compensation. After my father left, I devoted all my energy to that tool. My father had already developed it as a gem inlay, but it was difficult to find any alternatives. After all, this kind of thing was too expensive to test, and I couldn't find any substitutes. But at that time, I was determined to complete my father's instructions and started research at all costs. I quickly spent all my property, sold my house, and even fell to the point where I sometimes needed to beg.
Tiankepity saw that Li Jian's investment made me die for a desperate situation. When I met Xiaomei, I finally successfully completed the first embedded work. The crystal was used to marry Xiaomei. It also gave me more opportunities to experiment. Later works were successful and failed. However, compared to the benefits that could be brought by success, the cost of failure can be ignored. I have more and more wealth and more resources to invest in finding high-end care. Although the difficulty is like finding a needle in a haystack, I finally got a glimpse of the future more than a year ago. It was because I found him that the game really met the conditions to start.
What I owe is not to not pay back, nor to forget... So this game... is actually prepared for Brother Tianyang?
Gu Wei asked
Not Ivan shook his head. I will give Gao Tianyang what my father owes anything, no matter what the game is, no matter what the result of the game is.
Ah! I remembered that some time ago, Brother Yaoyang found out that Yifan Jewelry was liquidating assets and said he wanted to transfer it to a young boy, that is...
That's right, after the Spring Festival, my lawyers will formally contact Gao Tianyang and discuss the handover, but he is not aware of it yet.
Brother Tianyang... Does he know how to do business?
Although I think Ivan's approach is not wrong, even Gu Wei, who is a layman, felt worried when she thought of the carefree man taking over this big business.
I don't understand. Ivan smiled and shook his head. Do you still remember the day when the third brother died, and any police officers asked each of you?
Well, Gu Wei nodded, and suddenly thought of something, and covered her mouth in surprise. Could it be that those policemen are all fake too!?
Hoho, that's right
Yifan laughed. It wasn't really a murder case, so how could he alarm the public security department? The police officers that day were all pretended to be Yifan Jewelry employees, and the police car was borrowed solemnly. On the one hand, of course, it was for the show. On the other hand, I wanted to know that as of that time, everyone's speculation and opinions on the game had been told a lot of his own ideas that day. I think... he should consider writing novels more than doing business.
Ah...If that happens, the foundation you have worked hard to build... are you willing to bear it?
Gu Wei not only regrets that the huge business empire might be destroyed like this
I am willing to give up and have to give up. What is important is that over the years, I have always remembered that Yifan Jewelry is not my own. No matter how brilliant I make it, it should always belong to Gaotian to support the family.
OK, Gu Wei stopped arguing, paused for a moment and asked, "Do you think Brother Tianyang will forgive your father for this?"
Ivan shrugged, so I pretended to be dead, and shrank here and didn't dare to see him. Now that the story is over, do you have any questions to ask?
Well... there seems to be a lot of them, but here is a bit boring, let's go outside, I want to see those roses
Um
Ivan nodded and agreed. The two walked out of the screening hall and came to the pavilion in the garden again to sit down.
Okay, the first question is, why do you want to play this game?
The howling cold wind, mixed with large snowflakes, hit the face as painful as a knife.
Such abnormal weather is like a sudden disaster for people who are accustomed to the warm climate here. No one wants to go outside to experience its terribleness.
For those who have to wander around, the pain has to be endured
At that time, Mr. Ivan had no wealth that was as rich as a country, no high status, and even a house that could shelter from the wind and snow. He was only covered in thin clothes, wrapped in a trembling and hungry body, staggering forward on this snowy night.
A figure appeared not far ahead. Although he was wearing a thick coat, he still looked enchanting.
On such a night, even the wanderings who always wandered in the night disappeared. Ivan didn't know why this woman appeared here at this time, but it seemed that she was undoubtedly the only hope that she could still eat something today.

Ivan asked to sit down on the bed again, and the woman poured him a glass of water before speaking:

No, no, I will go on like this. Cheng Zhaodi shook her head, I didn't tell him, in fact, I haven't taken the customer for a long time, since... I learned that I was pregnant
Are you pregnant?
Ivan exclaimed in a low voice
That's right, Cheng Zhaodi nodded and stroked her lower abdomen with her right hand. I'm pregnant, it's his child
Then you are ready...
I plan to leave with our kids, but I won't go far because...

Cheng Zhaodi said, gently lifting the curtains
Cheng Gang...is that child?
Gu Wei's voice trembled, and she unconsciously grabbed Ivan's right hand
Well, Ivan nodded. In the early morning that day, the boy finally left. I don’t know how much resentful he was in his heart at that time. I’m afraid he didn’t know how much sacrifices Qiangwei made for him.

Gu Wei's tears finally filled her eyes. At this moment, she felt ten thousand regrets in her heart. She regretted not going to see more and spending more time with the old man.
OK, you don't have to be sad. Now this is the best result for Rose
Ivan was also a little sad, comforting Gu Wei and himself, so there is only one last story left. Do you want to listen to me?
Um
Gu Wei wiped away her tears and nodded vigorously
The story about Gao Tianyang actually happened to my father
Your father?
Um
Yifan waved his hand and told Gu Wei not to interrupt himself, and continued to say, "My father was the most famous craftsman in the villages at that time. He was famous at that time, and my family's conditions were also very good."
Although my mother died early, with my father's skills, I have lived a good life since I was a child and have no worries about food and clothing.
One day, a young man came to the village and found my father
He said he came here because of his reputation and made a special trip to ask my father to help him see something
Later I learned that it was a treasure heirloom of his family, a wonderful instrument. Unfortunately, no one could understand what it is for and how it is used. We don’t know where his ancestors came from, but it was indeed an amazing thing. My father took it and fiddled with it for a while and could not stop.
With my father's efforts to stay, the young man lived in my house for more than a month
He is only a few years older than me, his surname is Gao, and I always call him Gao Da Ge
In the past month, my father and Gao Laozi spent all their energy on that matter, but unfortunately there was no result in the end.
Later, Brother Gao said goodbye and left, and I thought this was the end, but my father seemed to be infected with an inner demon, staring at the sketch all day long, muttering things I don't understand
Later one day my father went out and when he came back, the thing appeared in my house again. But he hid it in the basement and told me not to tell anyone that I could only see my father there. Fortunately, I could almost take care of myself and his life. This kind of life lasted for more than two years. One day my father went out again. It took almost half a month to come back and he was in a dire strait. The thing was thrown in the corner and never touched again. Later, he suddenly began to carve a painting like crazy. After the carving, he painted it with paint and waited until he finished it, and called me to come and told me something.
Did Li Jian buy that painting?
Yes
Ivan nodded. After completing the "Remorse", his father seemed to have grown old all of a sudden. He told me that he couldn't put down the thing, so he went to Gao's house and stole him back and studied it for two years. Finally, he had some clues and knew its purpose, but the usage was still unclear. He thought that maybe Gao's brother had hidden his own privately and had some other supporting tools or information not informed at the same time. So he went there again, but heard that Gao's brother was ashamed and angry because he lost his ancestral treasure and could not relieve his emotions.
Ah!
Hearing this, Gu Wei couldn't help but scream and Ivan looked at her, touched her hair as comfort, and then continued to preach:
My father told me that Brother Gao did not marry, but he left a son who was still in his infancy when he passed away. I heard that he was from a marriage between Brother Gao and his death. The child was sent to a welfare institution for adoption. However, the registration of these related information was not perfect at that time. When my father finally found the orphanage for several days, he realized that the child had secretly escaped and disappeared. He only found out that the name Gao Tianyang was named.
Brother Tianyang...
Although he had realized the identity of the child, Gu Wei couldn't help but murmur when she heard the name
That's right, that child is Gao Tianyang. Ivan sighed. When my father passed away, he had two last wishes. One was to study the use of that tool and give Brother Gao an explanation; the other was to find the child and try his best to make compensation. After my father left, I devoted all my energy to that tool. My father had already developed it as a gem inlay, but it was difficult to find any alternatives. After all, this kind of thing was too expensive to test, and I couldn't find any substitutes. But at that time, I was determined to complete my father's instructions and started research at all costs. I quickly spent all my property, sold my house, and even fell to the point where I sometimes needed to beg.
Tiankepity saw that Li Jian's investment made me die for a desperate situation. When I met Xiaomei, I finally successfully completed the first embedded work. The crystal was used to marry Xiaomei. It also gave me more opportunities to experiment. Later works were successful and failed. However, compared to the benefits that could be brought by success, the cost of failure can be ignored. I have more and more wealth and more resources to invest in finding high-end care. Although the difficulty is like finding a needle in a haystack, I finally got a glimpse of the future more than a year ago. It was because I found him that the game really met the conditions to start.
What I owe is not to not pay back, nor to forget... So this game... is actually prepared for Brother Tianyang?
Gu Wei asked
Not Ivan shook his head. I will give Gao Tianyang what my father owes anything, no matter what the game is, no matter what the result of the game is.
Ah! I remembered that some time ago, Brother Yaoyang found out that Yifan Jewelry was liquidating assets and said he wanted to transfer it to a young boy, that is...
That's right, after the Spring Festival, my lawyers will formally contact Gao Tianyang and discuss the handover, but he is not aware of it yet.
Brother Tianyang... Does he know how to do business?
Although I think Ivan's approach is not wrong, even Gu Wei, who is a layman, felt worried when she thought of the carefree man taking over this big business.
I don't understand. Ivan smiled and shook his head. Do you still remember the day when the third brother died, and any police officers asked each of you?
Well, Gu Wei nodded, and suddenly thought of something, and covered her mouth in surprise. Could it be that those policemen are all fake too!?
Hoho, that's right
Yifan laughed. It wasn't really a murder case, so how could he alarm the public security department? The police officers that day were all pretended to be Yifan Jewelry employees, and the police car was borrowed solemnly. On the one hand, of course, it was for the show. On the other hand, I wanted to know that as of that time, everyone's speculation and opinions on the game had been told a lot of his own ideas that day. I think... he should consider writing novels more than doing business.
Ah...If that happens, the foundation you have worked hard to build... are you willing to bear it?
Gu Wei not only regrets that the huge business empire might be destroyed like this
I am willing to give up and have to give up. What is important is that over the years, I have always remembered that Yifan Jewelry is not my own. No matter how brilliant I make it, it should always belong to Gaotian to support the family.
OK, Gu Wei stopped arguing, paused for a moment and asked, "Do you think Brother Tianyang will forgive your father for this?"
Ivan shrugged, so I pretended to be dead, and shrank here and didn't dare to see him. Now that the story is over, do you have any questions to ask?
Well... there seems to be a lot of them, but here is a bit boring, let's go outside, I want to see those roses
Um
Ivan nodded and agreed. The two walked out of the screening hall and came to the pavilion in the garden again to sit down.
Okay, the first question is, why do you want to play this game?
