Chapter 30
Chapter 30
Originally, Xie Changle had already arranged his own funeral, but in the end he survived with a bang, and the previous arrangements had to be overthrown and repeated.
He first made an appointment with lawyer Gu to change the will.
Lawyer Gu is a busy person with a busy business schedule, but he took the time to come over immediately after answering Xie Changle's call.
Xie Changle got straight to the point: "I want to revoke the previous will."
Lawyer Gu was not surprised when he heard this. He took out a stack of documents and joked, "I told you a long time ago, how can anyone make a will at such a young age?"
"What, figured it out?"
Xie Changle nodded: "Yes, I figured it out." He took the will from Lawyer Gu and read it at a glance.
The content is not bad.
It is to distribute the inheritance under his name and the attribution of the studio.Of course, it was only after his death. Now that he is alive, it is natural to plan again.
"Cancel first." Xie Changle put down the will.
After Mr. Gu confirmed it again, he stamped the will with a destruction stamp and put it away properly.After finishing these, he glanced at Xie Changle who was sitting opposite.
When making the will a few days ago, Lawyer Gu once met Xie Changle.At that time, he was delicate and fragile, like a flower that had bloomed to extravagance, and would decay at any moment.
It looks better now, with a pair of almond eyes burning, and the spirit is different from before.
Lawyer Gu asked: "What happened to you to make you change so much?"
Xie Changle smiled slightly, reached out and fiddled with the bangs on his forehead: "Probably got rid of the established fate."
Lawyer Gu was a little puzzled, but everyone has their own secrets, he didn't pursue it, but nodded and said: "Congratulations."
After finishing the business, Xie Changle leaned on the soft sofa cushions, and after a while, as if thinking of something, he sat up straight: "Can I ask Lawyer Gu to do something for me?"
Lawyer Gu and Xie Changle have met several times, he was the one who arranged the divorce, and he was also responsible for making the will, so he has a good relationship, so he didn't hesitate: "Just to put it bluntly, if I can help, I can't deny it."
Xie Changle: "Small matter." He waved his fingers, "I have a few properties under my command that I want to sell, can Lawyer Gu help me find a buyer?"
Most of the properties under his name are tens of millions of flats or hundreds of millions of villas, and he can't find a good buyer for a while.
And Lawyer Gu has a wide network of contacts, maybe he can help him get rid of it quickly.
Attorney Gu understood the meaning of his words, and asked in surprise, "Are you leaving City H?"
Xie Changle is not too sure: "Maybe. I will go out for a while to relax."
He has been staying here just for the so-called plot.But now the plot seems to be in a mess, the damned person is not dead, the person who should be in love is not in love, it seems that nothing can restrict him anymore.And he also wanted to leave H City for a while.
Lawyer Gu: "I understand." He knew the location and value of the property under Xie Changle's name, thought for a moment, "I will help you find out."
Xie Changle: "Then thank you, Lawyer Gu."
Lawyer Gu stood up and shook hands with Xie Changle: "One more question, when will Mr. Xie decide to leave City H?"
Xie Changle thought for a while and replied, "Let's wait until the Grammy Awards ceremony is over."
According to the plot, Xie Changle should have passed away at the end of the third month, and he would not be able to attend the Grammy Awards ceremony at all.But now that he is not dead, naturally he will not miss such an opportunity.
This is not just as simple as the awards ceremony, all the winning works will be worn by models for a catwalk.In addition, you can also exchange and learn with famous fashion designers in the industry.
For Xie Changle, it was a good opportunity.
So on the day of the awards ceremony, Xie Changle gave the other employees of the studio a break and brought Xiao Li to attend.
The venue for the ceremony was a five-star hotel in H City, which was also owned by the Xie family.
When Xie Changle arrived, luxury cars were parked all around the hotel, and there were celebrities coming and going by name, and there were piles of reporters on both sides of the red carpet holding long-guns and short cannons to take pictures non-stop.
This time Xie Changle learned it. He wore sunglasses to cover most of his face, so as not to be dazzled by the flash again.
Xiao Li followed him, because today was a big day, so he also changed into a formal suit, looking a little uncomfortable.He approached Xie Changle, trying to show a serious look, but he accidentally couldn't hold back, and sighed: "There are so many people."
Xie Changle couldn't help laughing: "Just go in."
Xiao Li nodded.
Xie Changle brought Xiao Li to a KT board. The logos of the Grammy Awards and major sponsors are printed on the KT board, in addition to the signatures left by the former.
A tall woman in a cheongsam handed over two markers.
Xie Changle took it and signed his name on the KT board.After signing, he returned the markers.
And Xiao Li was still hesitating, not knowing what to do with the marker, he asked Xie Changle next to him in a low voice: "Boss, do I want to sign too?"
Xie Changle said casually: "Sign it, it's nothing."
With Xie Changle's encouragement, Xiao Li signed his name on the KT board, right next to the flamboyant "Xie Changle".
Xie Changle stretched out his finger and pressed the sunglasses, a pair of almond eyes swept over, and he smiled: "Go back and practice more calligraphy."
Xiao Li lowered his head in embarrassment.
After signing, the two were about to leave the venue.But before he walked out of the area of the KT board, he saw two people jumping out from the crowd below, shouting Xie Changle's name.Their voices are extremely loud, and they are particularly obvious in noisy environments, attracting the attention of many people.
Xie Changle narrowed his eyes slightly and looked over.
The two people who rushed up were wearing worn-out clothes with patched cuffs and knees, and they could smell a sour smell when they got close.
Their gray hair and wrinkled faces make them look like rural old people living a hard life.
The two old people were not young, but their movements were very agile. As soon as they got on the red carpet, they rushed towards Xie Changle, and said, "My son—"
Xie Changle: "?"
He didn't have time to tell what the two old men were here for, so he took a step back subconsciously.
So the two old people rushed to nothing.
They didn't give in, they simply sat on the ground, patted their thighs and wailed: "My son, mom and dad finally found you!"
Xie Changle: "..."
Where did this ethical drama plot come from?
Xiao Li said loudly: "Where is the security guard? Where is the security guard?"
The security guard didn't respond.
Xie Changle sensed that something was wrong.
There will be security to maintain order in large-scale events like this. Except for those with invitation letters who can enter through the main entrance, other onlookers are blocked by iron railings.
Then how did these two old people break through the siege and appear on the red carpet?
There must be someone behind this arrangement.
Xie Changle swept aside.
Sure enough, those reporters couldn't wait to take pictures here.The lights flickered and dazzled.
Those two old people were still crying, with tears and snot in their noses, which didn't delay them telling the ins and outs of things with loud voices.
Probably two of them had a child who had been lost since he was a child. They kept looking for them, and finally found them, but the child wanted a better life and refused to recognize them or see them.Now that they finally had a chance, they came all the way here, wanting to see the child.
As they said that, they also went to look at Xie Changle and Xiao Li, as if to confirm which "child" they were talking about.
Before they could make a decision, the reporters below began to erupt.
What a great theme, what a hot spot, new fashion designers hate the poor and love the rich, abandon the newborn parents and don't recognize it, let's look at the gap between the two sides.One is well-dressed, and even wearing jewelry is a luxury, while the other is ragged, and the gap between rich and poor is obvious!
There are too many elements, and it will definitely be popular!
The two old men finally determined which one was their son, and said to Xie Changle: "Son, I know you don't want to recognize us, but we are dying, so I just want you to call us parents..."
Xie Changle raised his hand: "Wait."
The two old men stopped.
Xie Changle said hesitantly: "Is there... something wrong?" He took off his sunglasses, "Don't you think that you can give birth to someone like me?"
The onlookers were lost in thought.
Oh yes.
These two old people have small eyes, thick lips, and dark skin. No amount of genetic mutations can give birth to such a child.
The two old men froze for a moment.
The employer only taught them how to mess around when Xie Changle denied it, but they didn't expect such a situation at all.
To deny is to deny.
It's just... Isn't it a bit strange to deny it?
The two old men looked at each other, decided to ignore it, and directly spoke the lines given to them by their employers.
"We've had a hard time all these years..."
"In order to find you, we ran all over the country..."
"Why are you so cruel, we are willing to do anything for you..."
Accompanied by the crying of the two old people, people around also recognized Xie Changle, and they couldn't help muttering.
"Isn't this the one from the Xie family?"
"I heard that he was indeed adopted..."
"I don't think so. Even if he can't inherit the Xie family, isn't he quite rich? Can't afford to support two old people?"
"Who knows what rich people think..."
There was a lot of discussion around.
The two old men felt that the effect they had caused was good, so they cried more vigorously, and then secretly glanced at the protagonist in the topic.
The employer said that if the protagonist is panicked, they will rush to hug him tightly; if the protagonist denies it, they will also rush to hug him tightly.
But... now the protagonist neither panicked nor denied it, but just stood there quietly, looking at them with a pair of almond eyes, as if... watching a play.
The two old men were getting old, and their throats were already hoarse after howling, and the main character didn't respond, which made things worse.
Xie Changle held his sunglasses, tapped his palms lightly, and asked, "Aren't you tired?"
The two old men subconsciously said, "Tired."
Xie Changle: "Why don't you go in and howl slowly?"
Two old people: "Okay..." As soon as they said it, they realized that the employer said that they wanted to make a scene in a crowded place, and the effect would not be good if there were fewer people.For that huge reward, they quickly changed their words, "No, we won't leave unless you recognize us."
Xie Changle commented: "Quite dedicated."
One of the old men proudly said: "That's right, we bought our son a big house in the city with this business!"
Xie Changle: "Oh?"
Two old people: "...No, no, you heard it wrong. You are our son, as long as you admit us, we will treat you well! You are our life!"
Xie Changle nodded: "OK."
The two old men froze.
Xie Changle: "It's very busy here, you guys go to have a rest first, after this is over, we'll do a paternity test."
elder:"?"
The employer did not say that there is a paternity test.They subconsciously refused: "No!"
Xie Changle tilted his head: "I'm not saying I don't recognize you, it's just that when you meet someone like this and say he is your son, it's hard to convince others. It's better to do a paternity test."
"If I were your son, should I count the child support? Xie's family helps you raise your children. It costs tens of millions a year, and it will cost tens of millions in 18. Should I pay it back?"
The old man's hands trembled slightly.
What, hundreds of millions?
They only made one or two thousand when they came here to cry and howl, how could they make hundreds of millions?
The employer analyzed various reactions for them and arranged various routines, but he never expected that Xie Changle would not play cards according to the routines at all!
Xie Changle said calmly: "You have all said that you are willing to do anything for me, even your life, and now I just give some support to Xie's family. I don't think it is difficult?"
The old man swallowed.
Xie Changle: "You don't even want to do such a thing. Could it be that you are fake? Actually, there are not many, you can afford it by selling the house."
The house is the lifeblood of the old people. Without even thinking about it, they jumped to their feet: "How is it possible, this is our son's house!"
Xie Changle: "Your son?" He blinked, a little sad, "Aren't I your son?"
The old man blurted out: "Of course not!"
Xie Changle took it in and out freely, and the sadness disappeared immediately: "Oh, it's fine, it's fine."
This time and again, the onlookers also pondered over it.
I'm afraid these two old people are not fairy dancers, how can they look for relatives like this?It should be fake, right?
Just when others were suspicious, suddenly a young man rushed forward, grabbed the two old men and shouted: "Father and mother—"
Two old people: "???"
The young man said, "Father and mother, why did you come here? Don't run around if you are demented, I will take you back right away!"
Two old people: "We don't know you!"
The young man was heartbroken: "I said you are demented, and you don't even know your son." He was young and strong, and the old man couldn't break free, so he was led away.
As he walked, he explained: "My parents are not mentally clear, and they call everyone their son. I'm sorry."
The young man walked out with the two old men, and he understood the oolong.After a delay of nearly 10 minutes, other people didn't have so much time to walk the red carpet, so they rushed to the shelf.
Reporters also refocused on the others.
As soon as Xie Changle left the range of the camera, his face turned cold.
This is a hotel owned by the Xie family, and the venue and security are owned by the Xie family. It must have been approved by the Xie family for such a thing to happen.
Who did it, don't even think about it.
Xie Changle walked to the end of the red carpet, stood at the entrance and waited for a while, when he heard a "ding dong", he received a reply from Xiao Li.
Xiao Li: [Boss, I have already taken him out, and now I am going to send him to the police station]
The young man who appeared just now was Xiao Li. At that time, everyone's attention was on Xie Changle and the old man. He walked around quietly, took off his suit, and appeared suddenly again. No one else recognized him.
Xie Changle replied: [Well, okay, after you are done...]
Before he finished speaking, a shadow suddenly fell in front of Xie Changle, and then a familiar aura lingered over him.
His eyelashes trembled, he raised his eyelids, and saw Fu Yixing standing in front of him.
Fu Yixing: "I heard that you are in trouble?"
Xie Changle put down the phone: "Don't worry about it, I've already taken care of it, it's just a trivial matter."
Fu Yixing's gaze lightly swept over Xie Changle's forehead. After so long, the color of the highlighted hair has faded away, and the green hair is no longer conspicuous, but blended into the darkness.
After looking at it for a while, he said in a deep voice: "If you have any troubles in the future, you can tell me."
Of course Xie Changle knew that such a small fight was nothing in the eyes of Mr. Fu.As long as he has a word of effort, he can settle it.
It can be said, but it is not necessary.
Xie Changle avoided Fu Yixing's gaze, and said perfunctorily, "Let's talk about it." He turned and entered the venue.
There is a fixed place on each invitation.
Because Xie Changle won the second prize, he sat in the front seat, while the first row was reserved for the sponsors.
After Xie Changle took his seat, he watched Fu Yixing walk past and sat in the front row.From his position, he could just see Fu Yixing's profile.
His gaze fell on Fu Yixing's face involuntarily.
The last time we met was in the ward. At that time, Fu Yixing stayed up for three days and looked a little tired.But now he is full of energy, with a neat suit, and he looks like a successful person at first glance.
Maybe it took a long time to watch, but Fu Yixing noticed him, he turned his head, and the eyes of the two met for a moment.
Xie Changle immediately turned his eyes away and looked to another place.
After all the guests arrived, the catwalk began soon.
The music sounded, and the tall model swayed across the long runway, stood at the top, made a poss, then turned and walked back.
The works that went on stage first were all shortlisted works, and Xie Changle won the second prize anyway, which was placed a little later.
Xie Changle chatted with the designer next to him, admiring the works of others.Models came out one by one, Xie Changle was a little strange, according to the previous rehearsal, it should be his turn to design clothes?
Halfway through the show.
A staff member came out from the backstage, looked around, and hurried to where Xie Changle was.
The music was loud, Xie Changle didn't hear anyone calling his name, it was only when the designer beside him reminded him that he realized it.
The staff member said anxiously: "Are you Teacher Xie?"
Xie Changle nodded: "What's wrong?"
The staff said: "There is a problem with your work. Come backstage with me."
Xie Changle: "What's the problem?"
While leading the way, the staff member said, "Your work has been kept where it is, and it was only when the model put it on that I realized that the clothes had been cut and couldn't be worn at all."
Xie Changle frowned slightly, and walked backstage.
Backstage was in turmoil.
Models raced against the clock to change outfits and staff ran around getting accessories.
Xie Changle walked through the chaos and came to the innermost part of the backstage, where a mannequin was erected, and the clothes wrapped around the mannequin were exactly Xie Changle's work.
The staff member picked up a corner and said, "This is it."
Xie Changle leaned over to take a look.
The clothes looked fine at first glance, but when people wanted to wear them, they realized that the chest of the clothes had been cut, and they couldn't fit at all.
Staff member: "People have been coming and going in the backstage for the past two days, and I don't know who cut it. I'm going to check and monitor."
After the clothes were made, they were delivered directly, and there was no problem during the rehearsal, but now it was time for the catwalk, only to find out that the clothes were torn.
The person who made the attack was also shady. If the damage was more obvious, he would have a chance to send another piece of clothing. Now he only cut it with a knife, and he didn't find out until the catwalk.
The staff didn't know what to do, and they were so anxious that they were sweating.
Xie Changle's eyes flickered: "Now is not the time to investigate, let's fix the clothes first."
The staff was surprised: "Can it still be saved?"
Xie Changle: "Let me rescue it, you help me get the needle and thread."
The show this time is very important, and the staff didn't want to make mistakes. Hearing that there was still a chance to force it, they quickly brought the toolbox over.
Xie Changle opened the toolbox and saw that it was complete with needles and threads, as well as various small materials.The time was too short, and he didn't have time to be picky. He bit the threaded needle, picked up a small piece of material and pressed it to the gap, and sewed it up with his hand raised.
The music outside is loud, and the drum beats are brisk.
The models went out in batches, and came back in batches. The clothes on their bodies were changed again and again, and it was almost the end.
The staff watched Xie Changle nervously.
But even if the time is tight, Xie Changle's hand is still very steady, with light-white fingers pinching the needle, constantly shuttling through the clothes, the stitches are fine and tight, and falling on the fabric instead becomes a unique pattern.
After the last stitch fell, Xie Changle bit off the thread and breathed a sigh of relief: "It's done."
The staff couldn't believe it: "Okay?"
Xie Changle: "Well, no problem, let the model come over." He wiped his forehead, which was covered with fine sweat.
The staff was overjoyed and called for someone quickly.
Xie Changle had been engrossed for too long, his eyes were sore, he leaned on the table and wanted to close his eyes and rest for a while.But as soon as he closed his eyes, the staff hurried over again.
"Thank you, teacher, there are no more models!"
