Chapter 366 Meet Lou Zhenhua!

At 1:50 p.m., Jia Dongming rode his bicycle to the small courtyard where he and Lou Xiao'e had a tryst, and saw a middle-aged man sitting in the courtyard. Jia Dongming didn't need to think too much to guess that the other person was Lou Xiao'e's father, Lou Zhenhua, a well-known figure in Beijing.

When Lou Xiao'e saw Jia Dongming coming, she immediately came forward happily and introduced him to him enthusiastically: "Brother Dongming! You are here! Let me introduce you, this is my dad!"

Lou Xiao'e introduced him here and turned to Lou Zhenhua, "Dad! This is Brother Dongming!"

When Jia Dongming heard Lou Xiao'e's introduction, he did not show any special enthusiasm because the other party was Lou Xiao'e's father. Instead, he greeted Lou Zhenhua politely but seriously: "Uncle Lou! Hello! I am very happy to meet you."

The moment Jia Dongming walked into the yard, Lou Zhenhua was observing the young man in front of him in secret. He found that the young man in front of him was very different from the young talents he had met in the past.

In the past, when those young talents saw him, Lou Zhenhua felt that they were obviously flattering and fawning on him. However, when Jia Dongming saw him, he did not deliberately flatter or fawn on him because of his status. Instead, he showed a calm and confident look.

Jia Dongming's reaction made Lou Zhenhua look up to him. At the same time, he also understood why his daughter liked him. Facing Jia Dongming's greeting, Lou Zhenhua said to Jia Dongming in a friendly manner: "Comrade Jia! Ever since I knew about you and our Xiao'e, I have been wondering what kind of young talent could make our Xiao'e risk everything for him. Now that I have met you in person, I finally understand the reason."

When Jia Dongming heard Lou Zhenhua's praise, he did not feel complacent because of Lou Zhenhua's praise. Instead, he replied modestly: "Uncle Lou! Please don't say that. The reason Xiao'e and I got together was completely due to chance. It is definitely not what you imagine."

After hearing Jia Dongming's answer, Lou Zhenhua did not argue with Jia Dongming on this issue. Instead, he asked Jia Dongming with a serious face: "Xiao Jia! Yesterday you suddenly asked Xiao'e to send me a message. Did you hear some rumors?"

If it weren't for his connection with Lou Xiao'e, Jia Dongming would definitely not care about the life and death of the Lou family. Facing Lou Zhenhua's question, Jia Dongming did not answer Lou Zhenhua's question immediately, but asked Lou Zhenhua: "Uncle Lou! I heard that you are a patriotic businessman. The superiors just implemented public-private partnerships, and you responded to the call immediately."

"In our Forty-Nine City, I imagine that your network of relationships must be very large, but have you noticed a problem? People who used to have a good relationship with you are gradually distancing themselves from you, especially your official friends?"

Although Jia Dongming did not mention this issue, Lou Zhenhua had actually already noticed it. It was precisely because he realized this that he married Lou Xiao'e to Xu Damao.

When Lou Zhenhua heard Jia Dongming's question and thought about the current situation of their Lou family, he asked Jia Dongming unwillingly, "Xiao Jia! I noticed the situation you just mentioned this morning. It was because of this situation that I took the initiative to withdraw from the management of the steel mill and live a secluded life every day."

When Jia Dongming heard what Lou Zhenhua said, he felt the unwillingness in Lou Zhenhua's words, and reminded Lou Zhenhua in a serious tone: "Uncle Lou! The higher-ups will certainly acknowledge the contributions you have made, but in the tide of the times, no one can stay immune." When Lou Zhenhua heard Jia Dongming's reminder, he immediately realized that he had thought things too simply, thinking that as long as he handed over part of his property, he would be able to live the rest of his life in peace.

At this moment, Lou Zhenhua's face became extremely solemn, and he quickly asked Jia Dongming: "Xiao Jia! What do you think I should do?"

When Jia Dongming heard Lou Zhenhua's question, he glanced at Lou Xiao'e who was standing next to Lou Zhenhua and said seriously, "Uncle Lou! There are signs of a storm coming. If your Lou family wants to survive this storm, you must sell your assets before taking off, then leave Beijing with the money and live in Hong Kong. When the situation changes in the future, you can return to Beijing."

When Lou Zhenhua heard Jia Dongming's reminder, his brows knitted together and he asked Jia Dongming unwillingly, "Xiao Jia! Is there no other way?"

When Jia Dongming heard Lou Zhenhua's question and saw his unwilling expression, he instinctively thought of what happened after takeoff. He shook his head and replied, "Uncle Lou! The extent of this storm is definitely beyond your imagination. By then, not to mention small figures like you and me, even many big figures will fall from the altar because of this storm."

"Originally I didn't want to get involved in this matter, but Xiao'e is pregnant with my child. I can't watch Xiao'e and my child being in danger because of this storm, so I asked Xiao'e to send you a message. As for whether you believe it or not, that's your own business. After all, heaven and hell are just a thought away!"

Although Lou Zhenhua also noticed that the wind direction was a little wrong, he did not completely believe Jia Dongming's words. After hearing Jia Dongming's reminder, Lou Zhenhua tentatively asked Jia Dongming: "Xiao Jia! If we leave, what will happen to Xiao'e? Can you protect her?"

When Jia Dongming heard Lou Zhenhua's question, he shook his head subconsciously and answered seriously: "Due to Xiao'e's identity, she cannot stay in Beijing when she takes off, so you must take Xiao'e with you when you leave. I will prepare sufficient living expenses for Xiao'e and ensure that Xiao'e and the child have no worries about food and clothing in Hong Kong."

Lou Xiao'e, who was standing by, heard the conversation between Jia Dongming and Lou Zhenhua. She understood the reason why Jia Dongming asked her to tell Lou Zhenhua something. Thinking that she would be separated from Jia Dongming in the future, Lou Xiao'e said to Jia Dongming with reluctance, "Brother Dongming! I don't want to be separated from you. I want to be with you forever."

When Jia Dongming heard Lou Xiao'e's request, he said to her helplessly, "Xiao'e! I also want to keep you and the child by my side, but I can't guarantee your safety, so I have to resort to this desperate measure and send you and the child to Hong Kong."

"But it's still a year or two before takeoff. I will prepare a sum of money for you and the child in the next one or two years. It will be enough for you to live a worry-free life in Hong Kong. When the storm subsides in the future, you can bring the child back."

When Lou Xiao'e learned that Jia Dongming did not want her to leave immediately, she felt better. She said to Jia Dongming with a sad mood, "Brother Dongming! I will listen to you."
