On the afternoon when it was revealed that Liu Heng was stepping down as CEO, Huarong International's public relations department held a press conference. It did not say much about Liu Heng's resignation, but only obliquely expressed Huarong's condemnation of the recent bad media guidance. And announced Huarong’s new CEO—Liu Yi.
The public relations department did not introduce much background when introducing Liu Yi, but many people smelled something unusual—Liu Yi? Liu Heng? What a coincidence that both of them have the surname Liu
The media conference was broadcast live, and the TV broadcast was only ten minutes slower than the live broadcast. When Wang Yincheng saw the press conference announcing the name of the new CEO online, he was stunned for a moment, and he was not sure whether Liu Yi was the person behind Ye Anning.
Wang Yincheng was also stunned for a moment when he saw in the newspaper in the morning that Liu Heng was resigning as CEO of Huarong today. It was not just as simple as being stunned, it was a bit incredible. He also looked at the newspaper number on the front of the newspaper, and he was still confused. Thinking today is April Fool's Day
Liu Heng didn't show any difference from usual. He didn't even mention the company's affairs. He said before that Jiulong Holdings was in some trouble, but he kept silent these days. Why did he suddenly step down
Wang Yincheng did not call Liu Heng. If Liu Heng behaved normally, it would not be good for him to ask too many questions.
Liu Heng's resignation as CEO was not only breaking news in the entire business circle, but also incredible for Ye Anning. She only found out that Liu Heng had resigned as CEO after the Huarong press conference in the afternoon, and the name of the new CEO was announced by the board of directors. It turned out to be—Liu Yi
Who is Liu Yi? Why is it an irrelevant person
Ye Anning hurriedly called the other party. After several calls, no one got through. Finally, the other party answered the phone and said in a very impatient tone: "Have you had enough? Do you think everyone is as free as you?" ah!?"
Ye Anning didn't care when she was yelled at. This time was not the time for a quarrel. She hurriedly asked: "Is that Liu Yi yours? Why did Liu Heng suddenly step down as CEO? How could he give up such a big piece of money in his hands? business?"
The other side sneered: "My person? Humph! How could Liu Yi be my person! He is Liu Heng's brother! His biological brother! We can't kiss him any more!"
Ye Anning was dumbfounded, but still couldn't believe it: "How is it possible? Even if it's his biological brother, it's impossible. This is the business in Liu Heng's hands. What's going on if he gives it away? How could he let it go? Then he Isn’t there nothing left?! I don’t believe it, I don’t believe it!”
"You have to believe it even if you don't believe it! Didn't you say that by breaking the news about Liu Heng, you can use the opportunity to squeeze Liu Heng out of that position? What now?! Ah!? Liu Gong gave himself up and fought hard without blinking an eye. The country that I had held for several years changed hands and was handed over to my brother! The news came out on the day he left office!! We were all fooled! He didn’t care at all! He has arranged everything. You will see whether he will deal with you first or not first. Take care of me!?"
Ye Anning's hand holding the phone trembled, and her face was full of shock and surprise: "You, aren't you also from the Liu family? Don't you also have a background?"
"Background!? If my background is so capable, why should I lend you my hand?! Who do you think you are? Hehe, Ye Anning, I advise you to stay away. You exploded Liu Heng News, he won’t let you go!”
Ye Anning stood on the rooftop. The wind was blowing so hard that it hurt her cheeks. The woman's hands were shaking as she held the phone with red eyes: "You, don't forget, you tied up Zhou Yian! He is Liu Hengchu My boyfriend of four years!”
"Zhou Yian?" The man over there was bitten by Ye Anning, and he became angry immediately. He had never seen such a woman who was so aggressive when she was about to die: "Ye Anning, I'm not a fool. You know he is Liu Heng's ex." Of course I know about my boyfriend. If I couldn’t get anything out of his mouth, I would have let him go a long time ago! So what if Liu Heng knew that I did it? After all, my surname is Liu, what about you!?” The man sneered, Decisively hung up the phone and turned off the phone.
How many days has it been since the plan to trip up Liu Heng until today? Not even for half a month! From the beginning, Ye Anning fantasized that she and that person could bring down Liu Heng together, one would be the boss of Huarong, the other would be the proprietress of Huarong, and they would live an endless life of luxury and upper-class ladies in the future!
What now? What else is there now
That man saw that he was no longer of use, so he kicked himself. Liu Heng resigned as CEO without any pressure. The new one was his brother? What now? What is he going to do? What is the first thing you do after leaving office
Ye Anning thought about it and finally a layer of cold sweat broke out on her back. Her legs softened and she sat on the ground. The man's surname was also Liu and he was a member of the Liu family. Liu Heng wouldn't do anything to him, but what about her? What should she do! ! ? She is dead! Really dead!
Everyone in the circle knows Liu Heng's style of doing things. He is cruel, quick, and merciless. He is merciless in many things! Liu Heng is not Ye Xiaotian, let alone his distant cousin. He will kill himself, he will!
Ye Anning had the power to scare herself at the moment. Liu Heng's side was still quiet and there was no movement, but her side was already in chaos because she had done something wrong due to a guilty conscience. She opened the door to the rooftop with her cell phone and went down the stairs. She sprained her foot because she was so panicked and rolled down the stairs.
Liu Heng was laid off. Wang Yincheng knew it, but Dou Sha didn't.
Since moving to the school district room, Dou Sha has not moved back. He lives here in his new home every day. He feels that the new home is really nice. He has his father, oranges and bean paste. The family of three eats together every day. Sometimes he goes away. Playing coquettishly on the floor and so on allowed Dad and Nariko to sleep alone with him. Chengzi didn't go back to live anymore and stayed with him every day.
Bean Sha has already made up his mind to pay attention, well, that’s what it’s going to be like! Orange should be with bean paste, and orange should be with daddy!
In the past few days, Douzha finished school an hour later than usual. She followed the teacher in the big classroom to perform stage plays every day. In fact, the children's stage plays were super simple, and the plot was just like a running account. However, it was unbearable that the whole class had to perform, and it was so noisy. It's very frustrating, so rehearsals always take a long time.
After Liu Heng was laid off, he didn't do much else, but he had a lot of time. He came early every time and watched Douzha standing with a group of noisy children outside the classroom to rehearse with the teacher.
Sometimes Wang Yincheng would come over early when he was not too busy at work. The two grown men stood side by side outside the window and looked at each other, focusing on the same place.
Dou Sha was often distracted during rehearsals. Now Dad and Chengzi were watching Dou Sha together. Dou Sha Baozi felt particularly happy and satisfied. He even had a particularly charming smile on his face recently, which made Ye Fei very envious and jealous.
Ye Fei and Dou Sha were warriors together. The two stood side by side and whispered: "Dou Sha, do you still like your father now?"
Dusha used to think that Da Chengzi didn't like his father, but after a few days of observation, he felt that Chengzi and his father got along very well. There were no quarrels or quarrels, and they would come to pick him up together. Dusha asked: "What does it mean to like him?" "
Ye Fei: "I know this! My dad said that if you like someone, you want to sleep with him! Does your dad sleep with Mommy?"
Dou Sha's eyes were shining brightly, and she nodded fiercely: "We sleep together! I sleep in the middle, and Dad and Cheng Zi sleep on my side!"
Ye Fei opened his mouth and expressed his envy: "Your father actually agreed to sleep with you? Every time I want to sleep with my mom, my dad says he will kick me out of bed or sell me to a recycling bin!"
Dou Sha raised her chin, turned her head and secretly looked out the window, and then said to Ye Fei: "My dad doesn't have it!"
Wang Yincheng and Liu Heng stood outside and watched. Liu Heng had not worn a suit since he was laid off. Today he wore jeans with a white T-shirt and went to have his hair shaved short. The original cold and rigid silhouette no longer had a suit and tie. He looked much lazier, standing outside the window and leaning on the windowsill, his eyes not as sharp as before.
Wang Yincheng looked away and glanced sideways at Liu Heng. Wang Yincheng had to admit that Liu Heng's whole aura was different after he cut his hair and changed his clothes. He didn't have the slightest bit of exaggeration or shrewdness of a businessman, and was a little lazy. and reserved demeanor.
"How free are you after not working?" Wang Yincheng asked.
Liu Heng turned to look at Wang Yincheng. Wang Yincheng could clearly see Liu Heng's face after cutting his hair. It seemed that something was different, but he couldn't tell.
"If you don't go to work, you will definitely be free!" Liu Heng was still leaning on the window sill, speaking in a calm and unhurried tone.
Wang Yincheng couldn't help but laugh. Liu Heng looked at him: "What are you laughing at?"
Wang Yincheng had already retracted his gaze and continued to look into the classroom: "It's nothing."
The two of them stood outside the window, occasionally chatting for a few words. The topic slowly turned to the previous incident. Wang Yincheng finally asked Liu Heng what he would do.
Liu Heng turned his head and looked at Wang Yincheng, saying: "That kind of woman can't be left alone. She is different from ordinary people. She always fantasizes that one day she will get what she wants through a way and climb to where she wants to. If you leave the seat alone, something will happen in the future."
"Well, she knows about Dou Sha and me." Wang Yincheng reminded.
"Then we can't let her go." Liu Heng and Wang Yincheng said that Ye Anning didn't have much anger. He was just a clown. He didn't take it seriously. He just felt that this woman had gone too far. After all, Liu Heng and her had no grievances at first, but she actually wanted to pull him down for personal gain.
Hatefully childish and pitifully boring!
Wang Yincheng added: "It's not as simple as giving a lesson, right? She knows too much. The key is that people are restless."
"I see!"
At this time, Douzha deserted again and suddenly turned around, raised an eyebrow at Liu Heng, and winked at Wang Yincheng.
Liu Heng delayed for a full ten days before he began to rectify Ye Anning unhurriedly.
He is not in a hurry, he is really not in a hurry, and as Wang Yincheng said, to deal with such a person, you must hold your ground at first and let her get into trouble. Wait until she lets down her guard, and then start to deal with it, which will have the best effect.
Ye Anning was in chaos for ten days. He could no longer stay at the newspaper office and could not go anywhere else.
Ye Anning's father felt ashamed of Ye Xiaotian's family a few years ago because of Ye Anning's revelations about his cousin. He retired early and went home to farm and live an honest life. He even married a daughter-in-law two years ago. Although the daughter-in-law's child is not his. He is a biological child but very filial, and the family lives a harmonious and comfortable life. Ye Anning looked down on poor people, especially farmers, so he cut off contact with his own father. Now that something like this happened, she had no shame to go back to her hometown in the countryside.
Where is Ye Xiaotian? Ye Anning beat up her cousin, then sold herself out as "the father of her cousin-in-law's friend's son". Chen Jiao used a loudspeaker to promote the Ye family. Now the relatives at home couldn't even hide when they saw Ye Anning. I am afraid that one day I will be betrayed.
What about the rest? Colleagues, friends, besties? Would a woman like Ye Anning have best friends? She looks at everyone with their noses turned upward. She doesn't want to make friends with ordinary girls, and ordinary girls stay away from her when they see her.
So Ye Anning hid in the villa in Dongshan for those ten days. She was terrified all day long and did not dare to go out. The door was closed and the windows were not opened.
Ten days passed, and slowly, Ye Anning saw no movement, thinking that the news was over, and was about to pack up and leave, but someone suddenly came to the door and said that the villa in Dongshan had been bought by the buyer. The payment has been completed and the transfer has been successful.
Ye Anning was dumbfounded and said how could it be possible? This house was given to her by someone else and her name was on the real estate certificate!
The lawyer took out the real estate certificate he had prepared before, unfolded it and handed it to her: "Miss, look, this is the real estate certificate and the name of the householder of your house."
Ye Anning looked down and almost went crazy. The name written on the property certificate turned out to be Liu Heng's name.
Ye Anning's originally relieved heart tightened again. Liu Heng's face flashed through her mind countless times, but in the end it turned into Wang Yincheng's face.
She thought it was Wang Yincheng? Liu Heng originally let her go. Could it be that Wang Yincheng was behind it? definitely! That must be it!
All of Ye Anning's bank accounts were frozen, her house was confiscated, and the locks of her original house were inexplicably changed. The property management company did not recognize her as the owner of that house. Ye Anning looked through the phone numbers on her phone and finally called them one by one. I found that no one wanted to talk to me at all!
Ye Anning squatted on the street with a small amount of money and a bunch of missing bank cards, staring in fear, and finally took a car to Wang Yincheng's newspaper office.
With the help of Chen Jiao, Wang Yincheng got a car as quickly as possible and paid more than 300,000 yuan in full to buy a Buick. He felt that although European and American cars consume more fuel, they are safer, and he was afraid that something might happen to his children.
Wang Yincheng witnessed in the office that day how Shao Zhiwen was taking care of interns while quietly exploiting them. He nodded with satisfaction and said that he was completely relieved to leave Chen Luofei to Shao Zhiwen!
Shao Zhiwen waved his hand to the background of Wang Yincheng leaving and said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I can make pancakes in the iron ball!"
Chen Luofei looked at Wang Yincheng's back with a bitter look on his face, then gritted his teeth and looked at Shao Zhiwen, with a unique urge to spit on his face!
Wang Yincheng got off the elevator and went to the first floor to get his car. As he was walking towards his car, he was startled by Ye Anning who suddenly appeared.
Ye Anning must have cried. The makeup on her face was all smudged, and her mascara was smudged. She looked like a madman.
Ye Anning shouted Wang Yincheng's name, ran over and grabbed Wang Yincheng's arm, digging his nails into his flesh: "It's you! It must be you who instigated Liu Heng to persecute me! It's you!"
Wang Yincheng stood still and looked at her coldly.
Ye Anning's face was ferocious: "Why don't you say anything?! It's you, right!? It must be you! It must be you! Why are you so shameless? After surrogacy, you sold the child and now you seduce a man? You asked Liu Heng to let me go! I heard No!? Otherwise I will expose you and let everyone know the dirty things you did back then! Expose your son and expose your relationship with Liu Heng!!"
Wang Yincheng suddenly reached out and grabbed Ye Anning's neck with one hand and lifted it up. He looked at the woman coldly, his face and eyes unmoving, showing no pity or sympathy. Wang Yincheng was a man. He was taller than Ye Anning and his hands were much stronger than hers. Ye Anning quickly let go of Wang Yincheng's hand and struggled desperately. He grabbed Wang Yincheng's hand with both hands and kicked it with both feet. Wang Yincheng.
Wang Yincheng still didn't move, letting Ye Anning struggle, keeping the grip on his hands loose, ensuring that Ye Anning could still breathe.
Ye Anning finally became honest and looked at Wang Yincheng with a frustrated look as he grabbed Wang Yincheng's wrist and gasped. Wang Yincheng said: "The person you offended is not me, but Liu Heng. Think about why you left in the first place and why you did so." Go expose Liu Heng, no one is forcing you, you are the one who wants to commit suicide!" Wang Yincheng said, slowly approaching Ye Anning, squinting his eyes and lowering his voice, and said: "You know so much, if you don't know anything, Say, no one will do anything to you! Even if you don't tell me now, I won't let Liu Heng let you go! Ye Anning! Just live a free life for a few more days, all your hopes are over! "
Wang Yincheng said as he let go of Ye Anning, turned around and went to get the car. He was disgusted that Ye Anning threatened him with bean paste.
Behind him, Ye Anning fell to the ground and gasped for air. Countless emotions and thoughts were racing through his heart, and finally they all came to his heart. For a second, his mind was in black and white, and he didn't know what to do at all.
Liu Yi's plane arrived in the afternoon, and Liu Heng drove to pick him up. The two brothers met at the airport. Neither of them were talkative people. They bumped shoulders with each other to express the friendship between men and brothers.
Liu Yi was taller than Liu Heng. He was 1.93 meters tall. He put an arm directly on Liu Heng's shoulder. The two of them walked out of the airport to get the car. Liu Yi joked: "It is said that you want beauty over power this time." ? Oops, what should I do, I really want to meet my brothers and sisters!"
Liu Heng couldn't help but curl his lips and said, "Not yet."
"No? Then what are you playing for? That's not how you play with tickets, is it? Hua Rong doesn't want it anymore?" Liu Yi was surprised, put down his arm, and looked at Liu Heng seriously.
Liu Heng did not answer Liu Yi, but drove Liu Yi to the apartment prepared for him. The two sat on the sofa and drank tea. Liu Yi had learned the true story of the old man and was good at warming tea.
Liu Yi finally asked: "What's the matter with you? Are you letting go of this fat piece of Hua Rong? Is there any other business in the old Liu family that can catch your eye?"
Liu Heng took a sip of tea, raised his eyes and said seriously: "I plan to start my own business and let go of all the Liu family's business. If possible, I will also let go of all inheritance rights of the Liu family's property in the future."
Liu Yi felt that he must be crazy. If he was not crazy, then Liu Heng must be crazy!
"What nonsense are you talking about? No one is stopping you from starting a business! What does it have to do with giving up your business and your property?"
Liu Heng shook his head: "I thought about it before I left office, and I decided to leave only after thinking about it. Since I left Huarong, I have taken stock of all the assets in my hands and put everything that originally belonged to the Liu family in a special In the account, it probably won’t be used anymore! I will start my own business, and whether I succeed or fail, I will have to work hard myself.”
Liu Yi shook his head: "You are really crazy. If you want to start a business, why don't you use the Liu family's original resources and contacts?"
Liu Heng: "Resources will no longer be used. Networking is inevitable. After all, I have been out here for a long time."
Liu Yi: "Why do you think so suddenly? What stimulated you?"
Liu Heng didn't speak for a long time this time. He lowered his head and took a sip of tea. Then he raised his eyes and said seriously: "I met a person. After meeting him, I felt that I was nothing. I wanted to fight to chase him." Got it, but I think in his heart I am nothing and have nothing.”
Liu Yi was surprised and frightened, and the wild dog in his heart started to run away. He wondered if what Liu Heng said was too literary. Why did he feel that he didn't understand
Ye Anning dragged her luggage to a hotel that night. The hotel was located in a noisy downtown. The hotel had a small facade, but the interior decoration was OK. Ye Anning registered at the front desk, paid the deposit, took the key and went upstairs. The receptionist at the front desk specially reminded her One sentence: "The elevator on the right is broken, the one on the left is good."
Ye Anning took the elevator upstairs. She had calmed down, but her face looked lifeless. She got off the elevator on the fourth floor and when she found the door number, she couldn't open the door. Looking at the key card again, it turns out that the room on the third floor is not on the fourth floor.
Ye Anning dragged the suitcase to the elevator in confusion again. Her mind was in chaos, and Wang Yincheng's cold words and face kept flashing in her mind.
Ye Anning pressed the elevator button, waited for a while, and saw the elevator door on the right opened. Without paying attention, she dragged her luggage in with downcast eyes.
Liu Heng received a call the next day and said, "Zhou Yian was released a long time ago. Zhou Yian did not contact anyone at the school. He went to Los Angeles on his own and is now recuperating in a nursing home. One of his ears He is deaf. According to the hospital, he was in a car accident and had glass shards stuck in his ears."
"And the news I received this morning is that Ye Anning is dead. He fell directly from the empty elevator on the fourth floor last night. His spine was broken and he died on the spot."
The night before Dou Sha's stage play, Dou Sha went to bed very early, got into bed with a nice shower, and soon fell asleep.
Wang Yincheng and Liu Heng stood on the balcony blowing the wind, side by side, with a bean paste distance between them.
Liu Heng was wearing long blue pajamas and a T-shirt on his upper body. He did not smoke.
Wang Yincheng glanced at the building in the distance, turned to look at Wang Yincheng and said, "What do you want to do next?"
Liu Heng also turned around, looked at Wang Yincheng and said, "I still have some money to start my own business."
Wang Yincheng: "Then I'm afraid Douzha has another objection. I'm too busy to spend time with him..."
Liu Heng said: "I have you, right?"
Wang Yincheng paused and looked at Liu Heng. This was the first time the two of them had such a serious discussion about external matters since Liu Heng's stupid confession last time.
Liu Heng looked at Wang Yincheng seriously and said: "I plan to start my own business instead of relying on the Liu family. I only came up with this idea recently. I can't let my wife and children be affected by my family at any time in their future life." They got involved in trouble and threats due to their intrigues.”
Liu Heng kept looking at Wang Yincheng, and Wang Yincheng also looked directly at Liu Heng. After finishing speaking, Liu Heng stepped forward, held Wang Yincheng's shoulders with both hands, and said firmly and persistently: "Your appearance is of great significance to me and Dou Sha. Dou Sha is not I will let you go, and so will I. I can't make up for your past encounters and experiences. It seems that everything I do is wrong, and you won't look at me squarely. But you have to give me this chance, and give me You and Dou Sha take a chance. If one day you can fall in love with me and we can be a family of three, why would you give up this opportunity? "
Liu Heng found it extremely difficult to say such words. He tried hard to say it well and completely, but he always seemed to be extremely awkward when facing Wang Yincheng: "There is no way to erase my past, and I can't cover up anything. I can say it now I have almost nothing. I am willing to give up everything I have and start from scratch, love, career, wealth and rights. Now I am just Liu Heng and Dou Sha’s father. Are you willing to give me this chance? I think one day when Dou Sha grows up, you will still be His orange, but also my person, the three of us are still together.”
Liu Heng's mind suddenly flashed back to the first time he saw Wang Yincheng at the airport that day.
He thought he would never be able to forget it for the rest of his life. That was the first sight that changed his life, and it was also the first sight that changed Dou Sha's life.
Liu Heng has lived for thirty years, and he never thought that one day he would give up everything he had in his hands, even everything the Liu family had given him since he was born.
But now he has given up!
He thought it was difficult at first, but when he made the decision, he realized that it was actually very easy. As long as he thought of Wang Yincheng and the children, the big orange and the small bean paste buns, he felt that all the sacrifices were worth it. He had not sacrificed anything. It's just that I exchanged one choice for another and took a completely different path.
But he is happy with this road. No matter what he faces in the future and what he needs to bear, he is willing!
Excerpts from Cheng Yin’s novel—
What he always knew was that he would meet new people, new experiences, and new encounters; he would start a new life instead of an uncertain journey.
He thought it might be difficult at the beginning, but as long as the ending was wonderful, he was willing to try.
Everyone longs for a beautiful and fulfilling life in his heart, and so does he.
He was never a saint, he was just an ordinary person!
