Xing Zhongwan returned to Country X just in time for the royal family's year-end dinner. As a royal family who has turned a hundred and eighty turns, it has never been his identity but his wealth that has been followed.
The little energy that had been forced to pretend to laugh when we were greeted and sent to the room had long since been worn away by the complicated banquet process. She finally got some free time to loosen her tie and sit in the lounge to have a cigarette when Elsa was caught.
"Late, I finally found you, I didn't have a chance to talk to you today."
Aisha smiled and sat beside him, wanting to light a cigarette for him, Xing Zhongwan withdrew her fingers and calmly avoided, "Speaking of business, it's not good for you to smile like this."
Elsa pointed to the outside mysteriously, "Guess what those people are thinking? My grandfather is already in poor health. Do you think there will be a queen next?"
Xing Zhongwan took out a lighter and lit a cigarette, "What do you want me to help you with?"
Aisha folded her hands and opened her eyes wide, "I knew that lately you are the smartest. I need an opportunity and this opportunity is the railway infrastructure project of cooperation between the two countries."
Xing Zhongwan put the cigarette in his hand in the ashtray, "I can't help you with this project, I don't plan to go back to China, you can find someone else to help you."
Aisha didn't expect Xing Zhongwan's refusal to be so straightforward, "Late, I know that you know President Qi, and he is still the head of the Shen family. If he can help, then..."
Xing Zhongwan suddenly stood up with a serious expression, "Aisha, I can't help you with this matter. As long as the project is suitable, it can be negotiated without these external forces, and I have nothing to do with Qi Yun, whether in country x or You will be visiting with a business group soon, and you can't talk to anyone about this."
Aisha rarely sees Xing Zhongwan so solemn. Over the years, Xing Zhongwan's attitude towards the cooperation between them has always been soft, and her status as a royal princess will give some face, but this time...
It's a pity for Aisha, after all, as long as the railway infrastructure can be connected with the Shen family and the relationship with Qi Yun, there is no difficulty.
"I understand, late, since you don't want me, I won't force it. I believe I can negotiate with my strength."
Xing Zhongwan walked over and hugged the petite woman, Aisha laughed, "You don't need to comfort me. But I'm really curious that you and President Qi really have nothing to do with what you said? I'm just gossiping, I think Come out, he likes you very much."
Xing Zhongwan rearranged the loose tie and smiled at Aisha, "You think too much, my little aunt."
Elsa shrugged, "What a pity, you guys are a good match."
Xing Zhongwan came home from the banquet in a dizzy night. He wanted to rest early but couldn't sleep. He simply sat in the yard with the wine to blow the wind. Sitting alone was always lonely, so he simply asked the housekeeper to turn on the fountain. It's weird to watch the fountain by a person blowing cold wind and drinking wine at night.
It's been a while since he returned to Country X. Even if he didn't pay attention to Qi Yun's news, there was still some wind in his ears. No. 3 and No. 4 Xu Zhi really liked Qi Yun when he was busy and always put some news about Qi Yun on his desk. Xing Zhongwan did not prohibit their behavior, but read each one carefully. As he thought, once he returned to Country X, Qi Yun didn't have the scruples to start fighting back, but in Xing Zhongwan's opinion, he always meant to sink the boat, and he was a little worried.
Rubbing his aching forehead, the sound of water from the fountain couldn't calm down, so he raised his head and drank a glass of red wine. Xing Zhongwan had some thoughts in mind when she heard the proposal that Aisha said, but this thought only flashed in her mind. If you follow the business group, you will inevitably run into Qi Yun. The general election is less than a month away. If something goes wrong at this time...
Xing Zhongwan put the cup heavily on the small table aside. He got up, the old housekeeper behind him put on a thick nightgown for him, Xing Zhongwan slowly paced around the huge fountain pool, there were no stars in the sky of X country, Xing Zhongwan raised his neck and the eyes were dark. Qi Yun, is what you see right now the same as me
Qi Yun looked at the photo in his hand, which was the only family portrait of the three Xing Zhongwan, who was still a baby. He was still reluctant to return this photo and kept it quietly. When there was a knock on the door, Qi Yun put the photo in his coat, "Come in."
The doctor walked up to him and sighed, "I'm rescued, do you want to meet me? After all, she's your biological mother."
Qi Yun stared indifferently at the door of the emergency room not far away, "I'm afraid she won't see me, she can't wait to bite me to death now."
"I don't advise you, but there are so many rumors out there that the election is just around the corner, and she can't have an accident. You think about the stakes."
The doctor pushed open the door and went out. Qi Yun suddenly remembered that he received a call this morning and rushed to the hospital where there was blood all over the Guanyang ward. There was a hint of sarcasm in Qi Yun's eyes, so he couldn't live anymore? Mother, you have disappointed me so much.
Qi Yun stood by the hospital bed and looked at Guan Yang, "Can't you hold on? I want you to live to see me stand in that position. Why should I share something so worthy of celebration with you?"
Guan Yang turned his haggard face indifferently, "Qi Yun, you are so cruel, you deserve to be my own son."
Qi Yun's leg hurt a little. He sat on the side of Guan Yang's bed and smiled, "I remember my mother disliked me laughing the most. You said that I laughed like a Shen family member." Qi Yun slowly approached Guan Yang before her He said in his ear: "I think I'm most like you. You want to get rid of me time and time again. It hurts when a knife is inserted into your body, mother. I've never been a good-tempered person. I have to let you live well. It's just the people who are shutting the family, are they good? Why do you want to unite with them and become a stumbling block for me. Don't worry, they will not be lonely when they are inside, and they will be stabbed. Sooner or later they will get used to it, or maybe I’m tired of playing, and it’s okay to collect some evidence to give them a relief.”
Guan Yang stared at him and almost left blood and tears, "Qi Yun, you are not human!"
Qi Yun stood up, took off his coat, then his shirt, until his upper body was naked, and his thin, white chest was full of crisscrossing scars.
Pointing to the scar in the middle that almost splits his chest in two, "Mother, remember this, a car accident, your good son and my good brother made it by himself, and I almost died on the operating table after having my chest opened twice."
His fingers moved down, the wound was still fresh, and a wide strip lay across his lower right abdomen, "I almost never woke up with this knife, this is my good grandfather, you, the Guan family behind you still have countless thoughts. A good show for those who want Qi Yun to die."
Qi Yun took the shirt on the side and put it on slowly, "You are the least qualified to say this. I don't deserve to be a human being, what about you?"
Guan Yang's face was ashen, and she was paralyzed on the hospital bed like a leaking balloon. Qi Yun's scars all over her body made her eyes wide open, and a mouthful of blood suddenly spurted out from her chest, dyeing the white sheets red.
Qi Yun turned around slowly, "If you want the Guan family in prison to suffer less, don't do stupid things like today. Don't think I don't know about those secret lines outside you, what is my bottom line? You are very clear."
Country X, Xing Zhongwan opened his eyes abruptly, raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead, took a deep breath and slowly sat up from the bed.
The cell phone at the bedside suddenly rang, Xing Zhongwan picked it up, suddenly frowned and quickly jumped out of bed. Aisha left with the business group from country X three days ago, and Xue Qing also went with him on behalf of the group. Before leaving, Xue Qing was joking if he should talk to Qi Yun if he ran into him, but he didn't expect to receive news of her car accident within three days.
When Xing Zhongwan got on the plane, his whole body was cold, and his palms were sweating all the time. Cheng Zhengzhe was still on a business trip in another country, but Xing Zhongwan did not dare to tell him, and took No. 3 and No. 4 on a private jet to submit a flight route application to X's foreign affairs office. Aisha never got in touch, Xing Zhongwan leaned on the back of the plane seat with her eyes closed and didn't speak.
No. 3 poured him a glass of warm water, Xing Zhongwan pushed it away and fell into contemplation.
Qi Yun received a call from the Foreign Affairs Office in the afternoon and was a little surprised when he received the news that Country X had applied for diplomatic assistance and a flight route. This is not like a late behavior, something must have happened. Sure enough, the news of Xue Qing's car accident immediately reached his ears.
This thing is not simple.
On the day that Xing Zhongwan flew back to China, he contacted Aisha as soon as he got off the plane, and rushed to the hospital to see Xue Qing who had a car accident.
Xing Zhongwan looked at Xue Qing, who had a lot of scratches on his face with one leg in a plaster cast, and his tense body finally relaxed a little.
"Fortunately, it wasn't disfigured."
Xing Zhongwan walked to Xue Qing's side and squatted down and hugged her into his arms, Xue Qing patted his back, "You shouldn't have come, Lao Xing."
Xing Zhongwan let go of her and looked at her carefully, "If it was me who was lying on the bed now, would you and Lao Cheng leave me alone?"
Xing Zhongwan's eyes were firm, and the dark blue in his eyes showed his hard work. The physical fatigue was okay, but the torment in his heart was the most painful.
"Lao Xing, listen to me. Our delegation was involved in a car accident, and the official identification was an accident. But the target of the car that hit me was obvious, and I could see it clearly. It drove out and ran over in my direction. I, an X The Chinese have no enemies here, so why did they kill me? The target is not me, but you! This person wants to lead you back to the country. You know better than me why he did this."
Xing Zhongwan's expression was solemn, Xue Qing straightened his body, "Lao Xing, now for the election, everyone is in a mess, Qi Yun has no leeway to start, how many people hate him and want to kill him, but he does It's just too serious. They've got your eyes on you, and you've got to get back right away before you're pulled off this muddy water."
Xing Zhongwan got up and walked two steps in the ward, his long and narrow eyes narrowed slightly, his hands were put into the pockets of his jacket, his fists were clenched, his lips were clenched. Xue Qing endured the pain, "Lao Xing, what do you think?"
Xing Zhongwan stopped and looked at her, "I had a dream. On the day of your accident, I dreamed that Qi Yun died, and there were blood holes all over his body."
Xue Qing opened his mouth slightly, and was speechless for a long time.
Xing Zhongwan tensed his forehead, and his snow-white skin was full of blue veins, "I've never had such a dream, but I know it's not a good sign."
Xue Qing understood, she exhaled, "I respect your decision."
Xing Zhongwan was fascinated by the glass window of the ward. He always felt that something would happen to Qi Yun this time, and he was in a hurry to come back because of Xue Qing and because of that dream.
If there is something else that must be faced by yourself, then come on. Since he can't avoid it, he must be dragged into this game, he is not afraid. He left in order not to be a bargaining chip for others to threaten Qi Yun, but Xing Zhongwan couldn't bear it if his friends who hurt him tried their best to guide him back to China.
Five years ago I was able to protect Qi Yun, and I can do it five years later, so let's just wait and see.
Reaching out my hand and drawing a circle on the misted glass window, that dream, I absolutely cannot make it come true.
