(Regarding two matters: First, Chen Guang had surgery today, a minor operation on his left eye. He looks quite scary now. Friends who are interested in seeing can join the book club group 189783615. Second, he will have to undergo surgery on his right eye next month, which will require hospitalization. I'm giving everyone a heads-up in advance. Finally, please add to your favorites and give me a recommendation!)
"Ms. Sun, should I ask your nephew to stop?"
After a moment's thought, Xu Junran politely said to Sun Jingyun.
Sun Jingyun was taken aback, glanced at Xu Junran, and noticed that although he was speaking to her, his eyes were fixed on Sun Yuxuan. This made Sun Jingyun, who was usually very confident in her appearance, slightly displeased. She couldn't help but smile bitterly, wondering why she was feeling this way, as she usually despised men staring at her.
However, considering that Xu Junran was her savior, she turned around and said in a voice like a skylark, "Xuan, stop it!"
Sun Yuxuan, who was swinging a bottle to hit someone, immediately stopped and turned around with a grin, "Auntie, you go ahead. I'll be done in a minute."
Xu Junran couldn't help but roll his eyes, thinking that if he continued, someone might end up dead.
Taking a step forward, Xu Junran shouted at Sun Yuxuan, "Brother, since they've already been taught a lesson, shouldn't this matter be handled by the police?"
Sun Yuxuan frowned, glanced at Xu Junran, and realized he was the one his aunt mentioned who had saved her. His tone softened slightly, "Don't worry, it's fine."
Xu Junran smiled bitterly, thinking this guy was really fearless.
Turning to Sun Jingyun, Xu Junran said, "Since Wei Ge taught you, I'll call you sister. Sister Jingyun, I know you must be very angry about what just happened, but no matter what, you can't let these young men keep beating people on the street. A lot of people are already gathering to watch, and if this gets out, it won't be good for Grandpa Sun's reputation."
He paused and whispered, "The National People's Congress is about to start. It's better to avoid such incidents."
Xu Junran believed that Sun Jingyun could distinguish between what was important and what was not. Growing up in such a family, if she lacked this ability, Xu Junran would have doubted how Grandpa Sun was called a political veteran.
In the future, there was a lot of controversy surrounding Old Sun. At least Xu Junran knew that an old revolutionary once commented, "Old Sun is a muddler."
This was not a compliment. After the turmoil, many old marshals and generals who had been toppled and then returned to power envied this old comrade who had not been toppled, but also had their criticisms. At the time, many ordinary people heard that at gatherings, old cadres said that the reason Grandpa Sun became a political veteran was that he offended no one and lacked a sense of struggle and principle. For these criticisms, the old man did not bother to defend himself during his lifetime. After his death, his longtime subordinates wrote articles to clear his name, presenting a lot of material to affirm the old man's significant role in the planning to topple the Gang of Four, as well as his ability to endure and his skill in struggle. The efforts of his subordinates did improve the public's perception of the old man, but did not completely eliminate the view that he was good at being a person but not at doing things.
Xu Junran's view was different. He believed that whether leading the military or governing, Grandpa Sun's intelligence and achievements were above average. He had no outstanding accomplishments or significant mistakes, was good at leveraging his strengths and avoiding his weaknesses, and was skilled in recognizing the times. This ability was rare among the founding heroes with distinct personalities and bold actions.
What Xu Junran admired most was that before his death, Old Sun made a significant effort: he requested that his hometown be included in the route of the "major artery" railway. He said, "My hometown is a revolutionary old area, very poor. I hope the central government will take care of it." This wish was granted.
Old Sun's hometown was in Quanzhou City.
Moreover, Xu Junran knew that after Old Sun's death, few of his family members entered politics.
Xu Junran held the old man in high regard.
Therefore, when he heard that Sun Jingyun and Sun Yuxuan were his descendants, Xu Junran felt compelled to give them a heads-up.
Sun Jingyun was a perceptive person. With a slight frown, she understood what Xu Junran meant, gave him a grateful look, and turned to Sun Yuxuan, "Xuan, stop. Call the police now and let them handle this."
She wasn't stupid. After Xu Junran said so much, if she still didn't understand, she would be a fool.
People raised in high-ranking families were smart at this moment. Or rather, even if there were a few playboys, their political wisdom was still strong, far from the ridiculous and harmful people of the future.
Sun Yuxuan, who had ignored Xu Junran's words, stopped his actions when he heard Sun Jingyun. He then stopped the few comrades who were beating people with him, called one of them over, and told him to go to the restaurant to use the phone to call the police.
After doing all this, Sun Yuxuan came to Xu Junran, stared at him for a long time, and just as Xu Junran thought he was dissatisfied with his earlier advice and was about to explode, Sun Yuxuan suddenly said, "You saved my aunt today, so I owe you one. If anyone bullies you in the capital, just mention my name!"
Xu Junran was taken aback and couldn't help but laugh. He developed a good impression of this person. He was a man of passion, straightforward in his likes and dislikes, and someone who clearly distinguished between right and wrong.
Wait, Sun Yuxuan?
Xu Junran suddenly remembered a rumor from the future, and his expression became slightly more serious.
There was a legend in the future that during the severe crackdown in 1983, a grandson of a high-ranking official was executed for fighting and injuring someone. It was said to be one of Grandpa Sun's descendants. The old man fell seriously ill upon hearing this, and his health gradually deteriorated, eventually leading him to step down from his high position.
Considering what Xu Junran had seen of Sun Yuxuan's actions today, it was possible that the rumor was true.
Shaking his head helplessly, Xu Junran never imagined that he would encounter such a person while just having a meal.
According to the rumor, Sun Yuxuan had fought and killed someone because the other party had tried to harm one of his relatives. Given Sun Yuxuan's character as observed by Xu Junran, this was entirely possible.
"Sun Yuxuan, right? Do you think your name carries much weight in the capital?"
Xu Junran's first words left everyone stunned.
Cao Junwei's face changed dramatically, and he almost cried out when he saw Sun Yuxuan's increasingly dark expression. He was inwardly lamenting, why had Xu Junran become so prone to stirring up trouble after returning from his hometown?
Could you really discipline Sun the Madman? This guy had probably trampled countless playboys in the capital from Changning Street to Jiugong Mountain.
"Junran, you..."
Chen Hongtao, standing nearby, had already lost his voice.
