Tokyo.
Hotel entrance.
"Chief, are you boarding the bus?"
"You all go ahead first. I need to make a call."
Zhang Fan, Yu Rui, and the rest will not board the bus without their leaders and waited by the side.
After walking further, Dong Xuebing took out his phone and called Yu Meixia. Although it is a global number, the signal is not good across the border. Dong Xuebing could hear some static noises, and after a few rings, Yu Meixia picked up.
"Hello, Xiao Bing?"
"Sister Yu, where are you?"
"I am preparing to cook with Qianqian at home."
Dong Xuebing cleared his throat and said. "It's like this. You had told me about your parents in the past. Can you tell me the details? How old were you?"
Yu Meixia paused for a second. "I heard about it from my relative after my parents passed away a few years ago. I might be around three or four years old, and I can't remember much at that time. That's why … if my relative had not told me about it, I will not know about it. Xiao Bing? Why are you asking me this suddenly? Didn't you go to Japan? Are you back? "
"Not yet. Let's not talk about me first." Dong Xuebing asked. "Do you have any special features on your body? Anything obvious? "
Yu Meixia blushed. "No."
Dong Xuebing thought for a while and felt Yu Meixia does not have a birthmark.
"What about the rest? Clothes from that time? Longevity lock? Necklace? Nothing? "
"I don't think so. Xiao Bing, what's wrong?"
"Didn't I say I will help you find your biological parents? That's why I need some clues. Think about it carefully, or you can ask your relatives."
"Ok. I … I will ask them."
"Ok. Call me immediately if you have any news."
After hanging up, Dong Xuebing decided not to rely on Sister Yu. He thought for a while and decided to get help from Liu Chenlong, but the plane …
"Chief, the bus is leaving." Luo Haiting walked over.
Dong Xuebing looked at the bus and thought for a while. "You all can leave first. I still have some matters to attend to. I will wait for the afternoon flight or tomorrow's flight."
Luo Haiting was stunned. "Errr …"
Dong Xuebing waved his hand and entered the hotel with his luggage. Dong Xuebing had thought it through. If he cannot change the flight date, he can book another ticket back to China, and it does not cost much. Now, he needs to find out Yu Meixia and Liu Chenlong's relationship. He had harmed Sister Yu for so long, and he feels he owes her. That's why he has to take care of her.
…
An hour later.
Dong Xuebing was smoking in a private room of the hotel. The dishes on the table were almost ready.
After a while, Liu Chenlong entered with a smile. He is curious why Dong Xuebing suddenly called him for dinner.
"Liu … You're older than me by more than thirty years. I'll call you Uncle Liu." Dong Xuebing smiled and stood up. "Uncle Liu, have a seat. I had ordered some dishes, and I wonder if you like them?"
"That's too expensive. This won't do. I have to pay for this meal."
"Hey, it doesn't matter who pays."
"Xiao Dong, didn't you board the plane?"
Dong Xuebing did not want to be direct with Liu Chenlong, and he made up a story. "Don't mention it. Something happened on my way back, and I missed my flight. I will return in the afternoon or tomorrow."
This hotel might be frequenting Chinese tourists, and they have a wide range of cuisines. Dong Xuebing asked the waiter for a bottle of Maotai and did not talk about the main topic. He poured a glass of Maotai for Liu Chenlong and started drinking with him. After three rounds of drinking, they can start talking. But Liu Chenlong is a good drinker and loves to drink. Dong Xuebing panicked when he saw Liu Chenlong drinking so much. He finished the bottle of Maotai in one gulp and finished half of it in the blink of an eye. Dong Xuebing thought to himself. No wonder Liu Chenlong divorced his ex-wife. No one can tolerate him drinking like this.
"Uncle Liu, you can drink a lot."
"Hehe, I didn't drink in the past, but I often socialized over the years, and I got addicted to drinking. My alcohol tolerance has also been trained." Liu Chenlong smiled and said, "I think your alcohol tolerance is not small."
"I can't be compared to you." Dong Xuebing changed the topic to him. "Oh, do you have a son or a daughter?"
Liu Chenlong paused for a second. "I don't have any children."
"Huh?" Dong Xuebing refilled his glass.
Liu Chenlong was a little drunk. He smiled bitterly and said, "I'm living alone now. You don't have a family either."
"That's right. I am also living alone, but it feels empty. Have you thought of starting a family?"
Liu Chenlong shook his head and sighed. He opened his wallet and looked at the photo. "I'm not afraid of you laughing at me. My ex-wife and I have been divorced for many years, but I still can't let her go. Haha … When we were living together, she was an eyesore. But now that we are divorced, I think about her every day. Humans are like this." Liu Chenlong kept his ex-wife's photo with him every day after getting divorced. Dong Xuebing knew he still has deep feelings for his ex-wife.
If it were someone else, Dong Xuebing would not continue to ask. But today, he did not stop and continued to probe.
"Your wife is in Fen Zhou City …"
"Qian Lihua, Fen Zhou City's Industrial and Commercial Bank Manager."
Huh? Qian Lihua?
Dong Xuebing is working at the Investment Promotion Agency and is familiar with this name. Sometimes, they have to deal with banks, but most of the time, it is with the County Bank. Dong Xuebing had never interacted with the City's Industrial and Commercial Bank and had only heard of Qian Lihua's name. She is the person who looks like Sister Yu? So, she is so close to me! But Dong Xuebing had never met Qian Lihua before. Even if he met her, he will not think of Yu Meixia. After all, no matter how good Qian Lihua looks, she is in her fifties now, and her looks had changed. She is very different from the photo from a few decades ago.
Liu Chenlong took a sip of wine and said. "If our child is still around, we will not end up divorcing. Sigh …"
Dong Xuebing asked. "Child? Didn't you … "
"Yes, but it happened a long time ago." Liu Chenlong sighed and said something shocking, "Her name is Tong Tong. She's very cute, but when she was five years old, her mother and I took her out to play. When we were shopping, we suddenly lost sight of her. We called the police and looked for her for a long time, but since then, she has never been seen again …"
The glass in Dong Xuebing's hand trembled. "The child went missing?"
"Yes. She might have been abducted by human traffickers, and I don't know how she is now."
"Is it a boy or a girl?"
"… a girl."
"Is your home … in Fen Zhou City?"
"In the city. My ex-wife and I were working there. Haha … it's been thirty years." Liu Chenlong looked at the sky in the distance. "Back then, my wife and I had children quite early. If Tongtong was still alive, she would be in her early thirties by now. She might have gotten married and had children, or … sigh." Liu Chenlong gulped down a mouthful of wine and couldn't continue. His emotions were fluctuating.
Five years old? Lost?
Fen Zhou City? Girl?
Damn! Dong Xuebing clenched his fist. If one or two clues are coincidences, there are so many clues … and many things are wrong!
Most likely!
Yu Meixia might really be Liu Chenlong's missing child!
Of course, it's not certain, but it's very unlikely. Sister Yu's age is similar to Qian Lihua's. She only went to her 'parents' house when she was four or five years old, and it's been less than thirty years. Yu Meixia's hometown is also in Fen Zhou City, and she looks very similar to Qian Lihua when she was young. This … if Yu Meixia is not Liu Chenlong's daughter, Dong Xuebing will be surprised!
You can wear out iron shoes in fruitless searching, but by chance you find it by chance!
Sister Yu had really found her! Is this God's will?
Liu Chenlong and Qian Lihua had divorced because of this. Liu Chenlong and Qian Lihua had lost their child for one year and two years. This is a pain that parents can't understand. Liu Chenlong and Qian Lihua quarreled because of this, and Liu Chenlong drowned his sorrows in alcohol. He got addicted to alcohol and will drink whenever he returns home. In the end, their family broke up, and Liu Chenlong was transferred from Fen Zhou City to the power company's head office.
Dong Xuebing sighed when he heard about this.
… …
Half an hour later.
"Oh, it's so late." Liu Chenlong looked at his watch and laughed. "We had eaten and chatted. Shall we call it a day? Thank you for your hospitality. Haha … I will treat you to dinner when we return, and we can have a good chat. "Liu Chenlong stood up with the help of the table.
"Be careful." Dong Xuebing helped Liu Chenlong up and had treated him like an elder.
Liu Chenlong waved his hand. "I am not drunk, and I'm fine. Oh, did you miss your flight? Why don't I get someone to contact you and see if there are any flights to Beijing in the afternoon? "
Dong Xuebing replied embarrassedly. "It's too troublesome."
"It's not troublesome. We are also going to book the tickets." Liu Chenlong felt better after telling Dong Xuebing what he had been suppressing all these years. After drinking, they got closer.
Dong Xuebing did not argue with him. He does not know Japanese, and it's troublesome to book the tickets. He doesn't even know how to change the tickets, and he can only book a new ticket.
But at 2 pm, Dong Xuebing did not tell Liu Chenlong about Yu Meixia's plan. If they are really father and daughter, Dong Xuebing also wants them to acknowledge each other. But Dong Xuebing doesn't know what Sister Yu is thinking. After all, they had not seen each other for more than thirty years. Dong Xuebing wants to speak to Yu Meixia when he returns to China and let Sister Yu be prepared.
