Su Qing sighed and said, "Su Mo, thank you for your hard work. In addition to investigating his information, I also hope that you can make some arrangements to protect him."
Su Mo smiled and said, "Sister, don't worry, I will arrange everything."
After Su Mo left the room, Su Qing sat in the chair in silence for a long time. She seemed calm at the moment, but her heart was in turmoil. People in the world have no choice. The Su family gave her an exceptionally open sky, but also imprisoned her in a birdcage, unable to fly freely and capriciously.
If Su Qing did not have the responsibility to shoulder for the Su family, he would have rushed to Huainan without hesitation, to see his own son with his own eyes and to ask him in person how he had been able to survive all these years.
But Su Qing is not an ordinary person. She has too many burdens on her shoulders and cannot act rashly. If things are not handled carefully, it will not only affect her career prospects, but also implicate Fang Zhicheng. Fang Zhicheng may be used by others to deal with her. Su Qing controlled her emotions rationally.
Meng Xishan stood beside Old Master Su and did not speak for a long time. The old leader's mood was even lower than expected.
"Am I a very cruel person?" Old Master Su asked with a sigh.
Meng Xishan shook his head and said, "The situation back then was special. If you hadn't arranged it that way, it would not only affect the young lady's future, but even his life would not be saved. What we did was the best way."
Old Master Su smiled bitterly and said, "In fact, I had expected this day to come. After all, truth will come out sooner or later. I owe many people for this matter, including that girl named Fang." After she finished speaking, Old Lady Su glanced at Meng Xishan deeply.
Meng Xishan's face remained unchanged, but his shoulders still trembled slightly, which was hardly noticeable to the naked eye. Meng Xishan knew what the old leader meant. In order to choose a reliable person, Meng Xishan screened many people and finally locked on Fang Zhicheng's adoptive mother. The reasons were a bit complicated. Because he understood this person's character, Meng Xishan was relieved to hand Fang Zhicheng over to her.
Of course, Fang Zhicheng's adoptive mother took on a lot of pressure alone to keep this secret. After all, it was very rare for people to get pregnant before marriage in that era. She even broke with her father's family.
Meng Xishan always has that beautiful, gentle woman in his mind, and the songs she sang for him are also clearly engraved in his mind.
Have you ever loved her
Meng Xishan suddenly thought so.
Old Master Su said: "The situation has developed in an uncontrollable direction. The secret can no longer be kept. I am afraid that many people have already investigated the clues. I am afraid that more people will misunderstand that Fang Zhicheng is Su Gang's illegitimate son. We now need to guide public opinion and make everyone mistakenly believe that, so that we can protect Su Qing."
Meng Xishan understood what Old Master Su meant and said, "Chief, it seems that you have already made up your mind and chosen the second plan."
Old Master Su nodded and said, "I will communicate with Zhiqiu again. She is a sensible person and knows what is important and what is not. You should pay attention to that boy in the near future. On the one hand, protect his safety, and on the other hand, be careful not to be taken advantage of by others."
Meng Xishan nodded solemnly and said, "I have arranged for someone to follow him. I will go to see him tomorrow."
Old Master Su sighed and said, "This kid has a stubborn personality, just like me when I was young. It may not be easy to change his mind. You can try to see if you can get him to come to Shanzhou to see me. I can have a good chat with him and maybe I can help him resolve his problem."
Meng Xishan was about to leave when he suddenly stopped and asked, "Commander, from now on, he is no longer a discarded pawn, right?"
Old Master Su was caught off guard by Meng Xishan's question, because Meng Xishan had always been following his orders for so many years and rarely questioned him like he was doing now.
Old Master Su sighed and said, "He never abandoned a piece. That was just a temporary measure to preserve him. Sometimes the chess piece that is most hidden often becomes the secret weapon that changes the game."
Meng Xishan nodded and strode out of the backyard.
Old Master Su stood up from the rattan chair, looked at the yellow fallen leaves all over the ground, and coughed for a long time, "Autumn comes a little early this year."
When late autumn comes, my old illness will come back. Now that I have reached the age of knowing the destiny, I can count on my fingers and roughly know how many autumns I can survive.
…
Fang Zhicheng regarded overtime as a habit. Shang Yan knew that the boss didn't want her to waste time, so she bought a dinner and left work first. After Fang Zhicheng sorted out the recent work, he stretched his body and prepared to pack up and leave work. At this time, the sound of a man and a woman arguing came from outside. Fang Zhicheng frowned and followed the sound.
Near the parking lot on the first floor, Sun Bai grabbed Jiang Pei with one hand and said loudly, "Why aren't you going home so late? Are you planning to meet a man in private?"
Jiang Pei angrily shook her hands, but because Sun Bai was too strong, she couldn't break free. "Are you a pervert? I'm just working overtime, your thoughts are too dirty!"
Sun Bai sneered, "I saw the text message in your phone last night, 'Brother Zhao asked you to do something for me'."
Jiang Pei smiled helplessly: "He sent this when he was bored. I didn't even understand what it meant. And you actually peeked at my text messages!"
Sun Bai said angrily, "You are still trying to cover it up! What does it mean to read the text message backwards?"
Jiang Pei finally reacted and said in astonishment, "Sun Bai, that was just a joke between my colleagues. Can you stop talking about it? Also, aren't we planning to get a divorce? Even if I date someone else now, it will soon have nothing to do with you."
"Shameless woman!" Sun Bai's face turned red with anger at Jiang Pei's words. He raised his hand high and slapped Jiang Pei's delicate and fair face.
Jiang Pei closed her eyes subconsciously, but the slap did not fall on her face. Sun Bai's wrist was controlled, and Fang Zhicheng stood on the side to stop Sun Bai's anger.
"Why don't you just talk it out? This is the district government, you two should pay attention to your image." Fang Zhicheng said in a bad tone, "If a couple has a conflict, they should go home and talk it out behind closed doors. Why do you have to come to the office and make a scene? It's really unreasonable."
Fang Zhicheng's words were also from his heart. Jiang Bai and Jiang Pei really didn't know how to control themselves. Although it was late and everyone had gone off work, they couldn't make a scene here. The government compound was originally a place full of gossips, and there were who knew how many eyes were hidden in the dark. For example, the security guards standing in the distance without saying a word were probably someone's eyes, monitoring every move in the compound.
"District Chief Fang!" When Sun Bai saw that it was Fang Zhicheng, his arrogance immediately weakened.
Jiang Pei lowered her head and remained silent. She naturally felt very ashamed.
Fang Zhicheng sighed and said to Sun Bai earnestly, "Boss Sun, listen to me on this matter. Don't continue arguing here. Go home quickly."
Sun Bai nodded, glared at Jiang Pei, and said, "Aren't you getting in the car yet?"
Jiang Pei bit her lip, shook her head and said, "I won't get in the car with you!" After that, she walked out of the compound alone in a very individual way.
Fang Zhicheng thought to himself that Jiang Pei was also very individual. If she were an ordinary woman, she would probably choose to get in the car with her husband in the end.
Seeing that Jiang Pei didn't give him face, Sun Bai stepped on the accelerator and sped away.
Jiang Pei continued to walk with a somewhat dejected look on her face, wearing high heels that were more than ten centimeters high. Fang Zhicheng sighed, turned around and got into the Volvo, then stopped Jiang Pei in his car and said, "Teacher Jiang, let me take you home."
