Daily Intelligence: Starting Out, I Won a Thirty Million Lottery Grand Prize

chapter 22 - Discussion


A phone ringtone woke Su Yun again. He had originally planned to sleep in today, but it seemed there was no chance now.Seeing it was an unfamiliar number, Su Yun didn't think much of it and answered."Hello, who is this?"There was no response from the other end for three seconds, and Su Yun, feeling puzzled, continued, "If you've dialed the wrong number, I'll hang up."With that, Su Yun was about to end the call."Wait, is this Su Yun?" A voice finally came from the other end of the phone."There's something I want to talk to you about, but it's a bit difficult to say," Bai Yong's voice came through."Oh? Who are you?" Su Yun sat up, wondering who this person was."Hmm... I know about you saving someone yesterday. I am Bai Qian's biological father. My name is Bai Yong!"After Bai Yong finished speaking, Su Yun immediately became alert!So it was him!The manager of the Economic Development Zone, all commercial construction land in the entire area was under his jurisdiction!It could be said that anyone investing in Jiangcheng and needing construction sites had to go through Director Bai!The importance of this person was self-evident!"Oh, oh, so it's Uncle Bai! Is there something you need?" Although Su Yun had learned about him from intelligence reports, he still had to pretend not to know."Hmm... it's like this, I want to ask you for a favor, just to see if you have the inclination...""This matter is quite complicated to explain. I'd like to invite you to dinner at six tonight, and we can talk it over in the car. What do you think?" Bai Yong spoke very politely, without the airs of a leader, very amiable."Hmm... okay. I don't have anything else to do anyway. Just pick a place for tonight at six and let me know."Su Yun agreed. If he had dinner today, he might be able to secure that piece of land in the suburbs in a few days!At that time, his net worth would increase exponentially!...At 6:15 PM, Linjiang Restaurant.A small private room, one table, two seats, several steaming hot dishes, two glasses of iced beer, and a sparkling river view visible with a turn of the head, made one feel great."So Bai Qian was lost when she was four years old?""In that case, you still have some emotional foundation with her.""I can agree to this matter, but Uncle Bai, as you know, it may not succeed. It still mainly depends on her wishes," Su Yun said, looking at Bai Yong."Your agreement is already the best outcome. If it doesn't work out, we'll find other ways.""Don't worry, I won't let you do this for nothing. I can grant you one condition," Bai Yong said."Uncle Bai, you're being too formal. The matter hasn't been settled yet, and I'm not in a position to state conditions. Let's talk about it after the fact," Su Yun said."Hmm, alright! Xiao Su, I'm still very busy with work and need to rush to handle some things, so I'll take my leave first." Bai Yong was still in a good mood. It wasn't appropriate to leave early at an occasion like this, but due to work, he had no choice."Alright, alright." Looking at the untouched dishes on the table, Su Yun couldn't help but swallow.Linjiang Restaurant was a very high-end restaurant; prices were high, portions were small, and a table full of dishes wasn't enough to fill one up.After quickly finishing the few dishes on the table, Su Yun still felt like he wanted more.Just then, he received a message."【Bai Qian: Su Yun, do you have time? I'd like to treat you to a meal to thank you!】"After reading it, Su Yun naturally agreed, and this was also the best opportunity to speak with Bai Qian.Bai Qian booked a private restaurant, very famous in Jiangcheng, but it had a daily limit on guests, making it difficult to get a table.Soon, Su Yun arrived at the private room door of the restaurant, knocked, and Bai Qian opened the door."You didn't say what you wanted to eat, so I just ordered a few signature dishes. I don't know if they'll suit your taste." Bai Qian was dressed very nicely today, clearly treating this dinner as a very formal occasion."Anything is fine, I can eat anything! Especially at such a good restaurant!" Su Yun's mood brightened when he saw the dishes on the table.He hadn't been full earlier, so this was perfect.During university, Su Yun was a gourmand, knowing all the good and bad places to eat both on and off campus.Then the two began to eat, chatting sentence by sentence, recalling some high school memories.After a glass of iced beer, a hint of melancholy appeared on Bai Qian's face."You still don't know, do you? Our classmates say all sorts of things about my background.""Actually, I know I have biological parents.""But I can't remember where they are. Everything about them is very vague in my memory. In fact, I tried to find them several years, but without success.""My adoptive parents passed away in an accident the year we took the college entrance exam, so I've been alone all these years.""Actually, I really envy you all, having a complete family." There was a hint of helplessness in Bai Qian's tone."Hmm.""Perhaps your parents have some unspeakable difficulties. They've probably been searching for you far and wide all these years.""If you could find them, would you be willing to acknowledge them?" Su Yun asked cautiously."Hmm... Those two words are easy to [N O V E L I G H T] say, but very difficult to do.""But I am willing, because I have their shadows in my memory!" Bai Qian said."Hmm, I have a classmate who specializes in this kind of work. I'll entrust him to help you search thoroughly.""Okay, thank you then. You saved me, and now you're helping me with such a big favor, and all I've done is treat you to one meal...""This really isn't enough to repay you..." Bai Qian said with shame."It's nothing, what's there to it? We're old classmates and good friends!" Su Yun smiled, and then the two continued eating.Around eight o'clock, the dinner finally came to an end, and both of them arrived downstairs.Bai Qian was driving a pink Bentley, which looked very nice.Su Yun, on the other hand, was walking, being low-carbon and environmentally friendly."Oh, right, my name wasn't changed later; I've always been called by this name. This is also a clue," Bai Qian said.Su Yun nodded and watched Bai Qian leave.Originally, Bai Qian wanted to give Su Yun a ride, but Su Yun refused.Su Yun took a taxi home, found a bottle of iced water and drank it, then lay on the sofa and patted his stomach."This makes it easier; half the job is done."Then Su Yun sent a message to Bai Yong, asking for photos of him and his wife, their former home address, and a series of other things.Actually, he could have explained the situation to Bai Qian tonight!Su Yun didn't want to wait any longer. After playing a few games, around eleven o'clock, he sent all the information he had gathered to Bai Qian!As for when Bai Qian would see it, Su Yun didn't know. What he did know was that he needed to sleep now...
