Rebirth in 1993, My Dad is a Returned Youth

Chapter 284 Whatever You Fear Will Come
"Dad! Why do you speak so preachily? Little Li's ideological awareness is not any higher than that of an old and hardworking young man like you."

"Uncle Ye, money is not as important to me as Yuqing. But a man cannot be without money, otherwise how can I be worthy of Yuqing. Only when a man has money can he have more stages to display his talents and realize his ambitions."

"You rich people naturally say one thing and act another. Look at how chaotic society has become since the opening up of capital. This is all caused by capital, and you rich people created it."

Li Kang had no choice but to argue with Old Ye, "Uncle Ye, rich is a neutral word, but capitalists are enemies. I am just lucky and happened to be a rich man."

"Alright. What's wrong with you two? Old Ye, stop talking about these topics. Xiao Li has taken a day off to play with us in Shanghai, so don't spoil the fun!"

Ye Jinhua turned his head and looked at the buildings outside the car window.

The skyscrapers in Shanghai will surprise every mainlander who comes to Shanghai for the first time.

He had never seen such a modern building. Even though Ye Jinhua was already the county director, he didn't have many opportunities to see tall buildings.

"Li Kang, please drop me off on the roadside. I'll take the subway back to school from here." Xiao Yunuo suddenly said.

Wang Jingyi and Ye Yuqing tried to persuade him to stay, but Xiao Yunuo was very determined, "I need to prepare when I go back. I will be going to BJ for internship soon."

She deliberately glanced at the rearview mirror on the car, and when she saw the man nodded, she felt relieved.

Li Kang dropped Xiao Yunuo off on the roadside, but Ye Yuqing insisted on getting out of the car to see her best friend off.

Li Kang followed him, "Uncle Ye, come drive the car! Experience the Mercedes-Benz."

Ye Jinhua's eyelids twitched, but he couldn't help but raise his hand.

Yes, we must understand the origin of capitalism in order to better deal with capitalism.

I understand my enemy, not because I like this guy's car!
When Li Kang sent Xiao Yunuo to the subway, the other party scratched his palm intentionally or unintentionally.

When they came back, Wang Jingyi was already sitting in the passenger seat, and Ye Jinhua was holding the steering wheel.

His hands were clenched tightly, and he seemed a little nervous.

How could I not be nervous when it’s my first time driving such a nice car?
This car costs hundreds of thousands of dollars, and even if you save for a lifetime, you still can't drive it.

"Old Ye, why are you still standing there? Let's go."

Li Kang and Ye Yuqing sat in the back seat.

Half an hour later, we arrived at the outskirts of the city hall, which is not far from Nanjing Road and is located in the most prosperous area of ​​Puxi. Next to the city hall is the People's Square.

Surprisingly, there are quite a few people visiting here.

The last time Li Kang came, he came with a purpose and was in a hurry, not caring at all.

He is not interested in anything related to politics, but if it is about criticizing some dirty phenomena, he can say a lot.

Everyone was puzzled as to why Lao Ye wanted to come here first.

Aren’t other places in Shanghai good?
Old Ye actually looked at the People's Government Building with deep affection.

"Old Ye, you came here just to take a look?"

"Dad, what's so interesting about the city government? Do you have any acquaintances here? How about introducing them to each other? If your daughter lives in Shanghai in the future, she will have more connections." Ye Yuqing said half-jokingly.

"You know what, it really is here. But it's been many years."

"This was my dream place back then. Hunan was too poor, and I went hungry when I was a kid. At the time, I thought that people in Shanghai must be living well. When the opportunity came, I had you, so I couldn't bear to leave. Plus, I was already a minor official at the time, so my life was okay. I didn't even go to college."

"If I were to come back again, I would definitely come to Shanghai to study at university, even if I couldn't stay, just to see what the country's most prosperous city looks like."

The group walked around the periphery and when they were about done, they wanted to go in and take a look.

"It doesn't matter. There's no way they would let you in." Ye Yuqing glanced at Li Kang. Li Kang responded to her by blinking at her and shaking his head.

Ye Yuqing didn't say anything else.

Li Kang didn't want to look for Li Jianhua. Should he tell him that his girlfriend's family was coming and they wanted to go in and take a look?

In fact, he knew the security guard, Lao Wang, so he could definitely get in as long as he said a word.

But I was afraid to go in and see Li Jianhua.

It turns out that the more you fear something, the more likely it will come to you.

Ye Jinhua saw a familiar person inside and recognized him immediately, "Hey! Mr. Li Jianhua!!"

"Mr. Li Jianhua!"

Li Kang was startled. "What Mr. Li Jianhua? Uncle Ye, do you know him?"

Li Jianhua was holding a briefcase and looked like he was going out for a meeting.

He heard someone calling him and looked over.

Li Kang quickly hugged Ye Yuqing's face to cover his own face.

He didn't see Li Kang, but he saw someone who made him feel a little friendly and familiar.

"It's you, Ye Jinhua."

"Li Jianhua, you still recognize me." Ye Jinhua was so happy that he never thought that the other party would pay attention to him.

As a civil servant, he knew very well what Li Jianhua's current executive jacket represented. He also had a secretary by his side and worked in the municipal government. He was at least a director-level official.

It is much higher than his position as a section-level cadre.

If Li Jianhua is transferred to another place in the future, he will at least be in charge of a region.

"Ye Jinhua, why did you come to Shanghai? I remember that more than ten years ago, you were a grassroots police officer in Yueyang, what are you doing now?"

Ye Jinhua touched his nose and said, "I am only a section chief now. You really surprised me that you returned to Shanghai and became a high-ranking official!"

The two chatted like old friends. Secretary Liu beside them was a little anxious. "Leader, there is a meeting later. What do you think?"

"It doesn't matter if one of us goes a little later. Mr. Ye in front of me was my benefactor when I was young. If it weren't for him, I might not have been able to return to Shanghai alive."

It turned out that Li Jianhua encountered some trouble when he returned to Shanghai more than ten years ago and ended up in Yueyang.

He had no money at the time and was extremely anxious, as he was about to miss the college entrance examination.

Fortunately, he met the upright Ye Jinhua who helped him.

Ye Jinhua introduced his wife and daughter to Li Jianhua, "This is my wife Wang Jingyi, and this is my daughter Ye Yuqing, she is now a sophomore at South China Normal University, majoring in English."

Ye Yuqing greeted Li Jianhua sweetly. It was also the first time she met Li Kang's father. She was nervous inside but looked calm on the outside.

Today has unknowingly become a parents' meeting.

When Li Jianhua heard that Ye Yuqing was from SCNU, he nodded approvingly and encouraged her, "SCNU is a good university. If you have any difficulties in your studies or life, you can contact me."

"Who's the person next to him?" Li Jianhua noticed the man standing next to Ye Yuqing, covering his face, and felt that he looked familiar.
