Chapter 257 The Charm of a Filial Son (I) "Crescent Moon" is Liu Huan's unreleased new song. He just got the song and it was the first time he sang it. He didn't want to, but Jinpeng Shopping Mall gave him too much. This song has a beautiful melody and rich connotations that express people's homesickness and attachment. Tang Ru likes it very much. "It's so beautifully sung." Li Lizhen nodded, "It's completely different from the singers in Hong Kong, but it's just as good." After listening to the songs for two hours, the three of them went upstairs to find a restaurant to eat. After the meal, Li Lizhen took Tang Ru to have her clothes altered, and then the three of them went home. "Xiao Ru, you should take a rest first. I have to attend a charity party tonight. You and Hong Ying will go with me then." "Okay, sister-in-law!" Tang Ru agreed obediently, and after returning to the guest room, she couldn't calm down for a long time. Although she just went to listen to music this morning, there were too many things that she couldn't imagine. When she followed Li Lizhen to the charity party in the evening, she was even more shocked. She saw many celebrities who only appeared on TV. What kind of party was this?
The wives of those celebrities came over in twos and threes and greeted Li Lizhen. "Why didn't Comrade Hongmin come with you?" "He just finished writing a novel and is at home changing his mind!" “It’s not easy to be a writer.” Li Lizhen talked to them for a few words, and then introduced them: "This is my sister-in-law Tang Ru, and this is my sister Liu Hongying." Tang Ru smiled at them and chatted with them passively for a while. After they left, she breathed a sigh of relief, "Huh, I didn't expect chatting to be so tiring?" Liu Hongying said in high spirits: "Sister-in-law, I didn't expect that they are from the same family." Tang Ru also asked curiously: "I remember they seemed to be from the art troupe." Li Lizhen nodded, "That's right, the Art Troupe and they are both brother units, isn't it normal for them to be in a relationship?" The two girls nodded in understanding. No wonder so many jobs in art troupes are so popular! So it's because of this! In this way, Tang Ru followed Li Lizhen and Liu Hongying to various activities every day, which made Liu Hongjun a little jealous. Three days before the Chinese New Year, Li Lizhen stopped her activities and helped Liu's mother prepare things for the Chinese New Year. Tang Ru was also able to help, and she also helped her mother prepare New Year's goods and food at home. While helping, she specially made Jiangnan specialty foods for Liu's family to taste. Mother Liu likes this sweet food very much. "Xiao Ru is really skillful. The Red Army will be convinced in the future." When Liu Hongjun heard his girlfriend being praised, he looked very happy. "You should learn more from your eldest and second sisters-in-law. If you can't cook, what will you do if you can't get married in the future?" Liu Hongying, who was implicated, immediately ran away to avoid her mother's nagging. "Brother, isn't the book finished? What are you still doing in the study?" Liu Hongmin put down his pen and said, "Of course I'm reading the documents. What else can I do?" There are too many companies under his name, and there are a lot of documents that need to be processed. In the past two months, a lot of documents have piled up again. This time, without Ma Weidu's help, Liu Hongmin can only read them slowly by himself.
"Why did you come to my place? Didn't you help with the work?" Liu Hongying pouted and said, "My mom told me about it. It's so annoying. She always blames me." "Haha!" Liu Hongmin said with a smile: "Who told you that you couldn't do what mom asked!" Liu Hongying said with eyes wide open: "What can I do if I can't cook? I also learned it, but the food I made was not tasty, and I can't do anything about it!" "You're right!" Liu Hongmin exposed her shortcomings. "You only studied for a few days, and Aunt Zhang said you have talent, but you got burned on your hand and you quit." "You're still talking!" Liu Hongying raised her hand in front of him, "Look at the scar, it's still there!" "Snapped!" Liu Hongmin slapped her hand away and asked, "Why weren't you as spoiled as you are now when you were a child?" Liu Hongying was very proud, "Who made me have a good brother?" She quickly changed the subject, "Brother, where is the book you wrote? Show it to me. I have been bored these days." Liu Hongmin pointed to the bookshelf and said, "They are all in the same place!" He had three bookshelves, one of which was dedicated to the books he published. The bottom shelf was requisitioned by Liu Hongying, who asked Liu Hongmin to put the books she had not read. "Hey!" Liu Hongying came over immediately and was surprised when she saw the row of books at the bottom. "No, brother, how many books have you written in the past six months?" "Not many, just three science fiction books and three Western fantasy books. It's just a coincidence that Beijing University Press just sent the Frozen Throne trilogy to me today." "The Frozen Throne? What kind of novel is that?" "The sequel to Dark Portal." When Liu Hongying heard this, she immediately put the Frozen Throne trilogy aside. She had read Dark Portal and found it uninteresting. She also didn't know what was so good about this novel that it could sell for more than 100 million US dollars abroad. In her opinion, it was completely because the foreigners were ignorant that they were fooled by their elder brother. So, she is not optimistic about "The Frozen Throne" at all. However, after she picked up the other three books, she felt even more disgusted. “Why are they all science fiction?” Liu Hongmin smiled and said, "I wrote this for a friend." "I might as well watch The Frozen Throne than watch them!" As she spoke, Liu Hongying took out the first part of "Frozen Throne", "Arthas", then fell on the sofa and started reading. Liu Hongmin ignored her and just started reading the documents. Here, Liu Hongying was flipping through a book out of boredom, she just wanted to kill some time. She came here to stop her mother's nagging, but she couldn't disturb her eldest brother at work, so she could only find something to do. Apparently, this isn't the first time. However, as she flipped through the pages, Liu Hongying couldn't help but become serious. She had read the Dark Gate trilogy briefly, so she had no problem understanding the beginning of Arthas.
Arthas's father, Terenas, was an outstanding politician, but because of this, he was always busy for the benefit of the Kingdom of Lordaeron and had little time to accompany Arthas. This was a kind of harm to Arthas. Therefore, Arthas later regarded Muradin and Uther, two close adult men, as "fathers". Arthas learned from his two "fathers" and did things according to their teachings. When the teachings of the "two" fathers conflicted, Arthas became conflicted and didn't know who to listen to. Uther comforted Arthas and gained his trust. However, when fighting the undead, Uther's teachings did not help Arthas defeat the enemy, and he even lost a large number of relatives and friends.
