Rebirth: I have Monopoly System

Chapter 447 - 384: Qian Guoliang’s Arrival

  • Next Chapter

At Rongcheng International Airport, a delayed flight landed on the runway. A passenger complained, "Why did we have to just sit on the tarmac for half an hour? I really don’t get it!"

"Probably air traffic congestion! Or maybe some weather issue! I’ve run into this before," said a middle-aged man sitting next to him with a shrug.

Just then, a sharp-eyed passenger pointed out the window and said, "Does the airport offer a personal escort service?"

...

The four employees from the logistics department of Wu Yun’s Little Red Car company were now following behind an airport staff member in a complete daze.

A moment ago, they had received a call from someone claiming to be from airport Management, telling them to drive to a designated location to pick up today’s target.

"Brother Qiang! Something feels off about this setup today! I’ve never seen anyone get a personal escort from the plane right to their pickup party by airport staff!" The young man was holding a rolled-up red banner, and he knew it wouldn’t be of any use today.

The middle-aged man called Brother Qiang put on a stern expression and said, "Don’t ask questions you shouldn’t ask. Some things are better left unknown! We just need to do the job the boss gave us."

Soon, the men arrived at the designated spot in three cars. Conspicuously among them was Wu Yun’s Rolls-Royce.

A short while later, a large, closed metal gate slowly opened, and a very ordinary sightseeing buggy drove out from inside.

The buggy stopped next to the Rolls-Royce, and a young man with a ramrod-straight posture helped a somewhat heavyset, spectacled old man out of the vehicle.

"Elder Qian, be careful!"

Seeing this, Brother Qiang hurried over to the right side to open the car door for the old man.

The old man stood by the car, smiled as he looked at it, and asked, "You’re Wu Yun’s employees?"

Although the old man was smiling as he spoke, Brother Qiang could still feel a gaze as sharp as a falcon’s staring at him from behind the lenses of his glasses.

Sweat beaded on Brother Qiang’s forehead, and he stammered slightly, "Yes, Elder Qian. Please, get in! Our boss is waiting to have dinner with you."

The old man chuckled and nodded. "Alright! Let’s go!"

Except for the young man who had just gotten off and helped the old man, everyone else from the buggy got into the cars behind.

Then, Brother Qiang smoothly started the Rolls-Royce, and the convoy soon left the airport grounds.

The old man was none other than Qian Guoliang, who had rushed over from Jinling.

Qian Guoliang looked out the window at the buildings, which weren’t particularly tall, and remarked with some emotion, "I haven’t been to Sichuan in many years! It’s really changed so much!"

Qian Guoliang asked, "Young man, how is your boss doing now? How are the company’s operations? Do you know about these things?"

Brother Qiang drove cautiously before replying, "Elder Qian, our company is considered a large, nationwide corporation! At least, in my opinion, the company’s prospects are very good! We’re pretty much the leader in our industry!"

Hearing that his own grandson was so capable, Qian Guoliang’s interest was immediately piqued. "What does your company mainly do?"

"Bike-sharing? Have you heard of Little Red Car?"

When Brother Qiang said this, a look of surprise instantly appeared on Qian Guoliang’s face. Although he was retired, he still kept up with the times, and since he read the newspaper often, he was not unfamiliar with Little Red Car.

"Not bad, not bad! Do you know much about your chairman?" For the next hour, Qian Guoliang questioned him as if running a background check. By the time their Q&A session concluded, the convoy was exiting the expressway into Jingyang.

By now, the sky had grown dark. Wu Yun and Yu Min were standing at the entrance of the Jing Lake International Hotel, gazing in the direction of the expressway exit.

After several hours of conversation, Wu Yun now had a better understanding of his mother and father.

’Holy cow! If I’d known I had a family background like this in my past life, I would have moved heaven and earth to be acknowledged by them!’ Wu Yun couldn’t help but marvel internally.

Unfortunately, as he listened to Yu Min’s stories, Wu Yun compared them to his past life and realized he had missed countless chances to meet her, which made him sigh with regret.

But now, after his rebirth, Wu Yun was no longer the naive young man he once was. With such a large enterprise of his own, plus the support of his System, he felt this privileged family background was merely the icing on the cake.

In truth, what Wu Yun valued more was the familial bond itself. Although they were all still strangers to each other, the feeling that blood is thicker than water was undeniable.

Over the course of the day, Wu Yun could sense Yu Min’s genuine joy and happiness.

This also made him feel a sense of anticipation about meeting his grandfather, who was about to arrive.

From their conversation that afternoon, Wu Yun had also learned that the two criminals who had carjacked and murdered his father back then had already been brought to justice.

Yu Min had even hinted at the inside stories behind certain events that Wu Yun knew of but didn’t understand the reasons for.

For example, why Huaxia had carried out a nationwide confiscation of civilian-owned firearms in ’96, and from then on began to implement the strictest gun control laws in the world.

According to Yu Min, while his father’s case wasn’t the main reason, it was the catalyst.

Yu Min also added, "The bandits who killed your father back then had intricate ties to Liu Han, the one who was sentenced to ’eat a peanut’ this year."

"Your maternal grandfather also put in a great deal of effort. Of course, it was also the general trend of the times, an unstoppable force."

Wu Yun pointed to the Rolls-Royce driving over the bridge and said, "Mom! Grandpa’s here!"

Wu Yun pulled Yu Min aside to clear the way, allowing the car to drive up the drop-off ramp at the hotel entrance.

Opening the door of the Rolls-Royce himself, Wu Yun reached out to support the gray-haired Qian Guoliang and said with a smile, "Grandpa! I’m Wu Yun!"

To be honest, counting his previous life, the name Wu Yun was already etched into his very bones. So, when he had talked with Yu Min, he told her he wouldn’t be changing back to his original name.
