Yipin Lanting is located in the center of the city and is built along the river. At night, the entire scenic belt along the river is lit up with bright lights, and countless fire trees and silver flowers decorate this scenic belt with countless pedestrians and tourists.
Behind Yi Yang is a large floor-to-ceiling window, and the night outside the window is decorated with thousands of lights, while in front of Xu Xinyi, there are three tall candle lamps burning, three or four short white wax are carefully decorated, champagne red wine, steak salad.
What a romance... shit!
Xu Xinyi, who was chewing the steak, sizzled the shiny and reflective dinner plate in front of him with a knife and fork.
——"I thought it was a big deal, I don't even remember the wedding anniversary, and I still have the face to rush me home."
— "With the time to eat, I might as well read more scripts and contracts at the company."
Xu Xinyi stuffed the steak into his mouth with a fork, looked at Yi Yang with eyes full of resentment, couldn't eat and chewed a few mouthfuls.
Although he didn't look up, Yi Yang's Adam's apple could still feel Xu Xinyi's gaze rolling up and down, and he took a sip of the red wine in hand to cover up his embarrassment.
Their wedding anniversary turned out to be the 27th.
But when he was at the company yesterday, he remembered seeing the date, and it was indeed today.
Could it be that Xu Xinyi's memory was mixed up
After thinking about it, maybe it is really possible. On the surface, you say you like him, but you can't even remember his birthday
Yi Yang unlocked the mobile phone at hand, opened the work log, and it was impressively written on the wedding anniversary, 3.27.
It's just that the date is close to the edge of the screen, and 27 is seen as 21.
Yi Yang put down his phone as if nothing had happened, cleared his throat, looked at Xu Xinyi, and said, "Sorry, I misremembered the date, and there will be no next time."
Xu Xinyi was startled.
— "Are you apologizing to me?"
— "I remember the wedding anniversary wrongly, and an apology is enough?"
She was really thinking about how to speak, and Yi Yang handed over the prepared jewelry box.
"There's no reason to take back the things I gave you. You keep them. I'll give you better ones on the next wedding anniversary."
Apologizing with a gift is kind of sincere.
But on the surface, you still have to hold on.
"How can this work, such a precious thing..."
"Take it." Yi Yang saw through her hypocrisy, and blocked back with two words.
Xu Xinyi reluctantly accepted it, "Okay, then I will accept it."
Open the jewelry box, it is a bracelet, dotted with a few valuable diamonds, no style, no logo.
Xu Xinyi accepted it contentedly.
Items without a logo are more expensive.
Now that he has accepted the gift, Xu Xinyi thinks it is necessary for him to say a word of understanding.
"If you make a mistake in the wedding anniversary diary, you will make a mistake. It's not a big deal. What matters is your kindness, husband. Today's carefully prepared candlelight dinner is so romantic. I'm so touched."
"yes?"
Xu Xinyi nodded.
Yi Yang smiled, "Then eat more."
"Boss, you too."
Oh, woman.
——
The city center of city A is brightly lit, and it is a place where people gather every day, but it is much quieter away from the city center.
Huamingyuan is an old community 20 years ago. There is no elevator in the seven-story building. The mottled walls are black. The aging community facilities have not been repaired for a long time. The dark walls are black. The cement floor in the community is full of potholes and many debris They piled up in the corner of the corridor, occupying most of the passage, and many aging lines near the electric meter on the first floor were exposed, which looked very scary and dangerous.
The only advantage is that there are many big trees in the community, and it is very comfortable to enjoy the shade under the trees in summer.
After a busy day in the studio, Jiang Nian dragged his exhausted body back to Huaming Garden, opened the door with a key, but what greeted him was not the darkness and silence of the room, but a dim light in the living room.
Jiang Nian, who was holding the doorknob, tightened his heart.
someone.
Someone in the living room stood up.
"came back?"
Jiang Nian pursed his lips when he heard the voice, closed the door and entered the room.
In the living room, Jiang's father was sitting on the sofa, and Jiang Huai was standing beside him, looking at him.
I don't have a key, but I can enter the door without saying hello... Jiang Nian lowered his eyebrows, and his tone couldn't be right, "Why are you here?"
Jiang Huai hadn't spoken yet, Jiang Cheng's brows were deep and furrowed, and he asked worriedly: "Come and see you, your brother said that you borrowed a million from him yesterday, what's going on? Did something happen to you? Are there any shortages?" money?"
Jiang Nian didn't answer, he glanced at Jiang Huai, entered the room, took out a card from the room and handed it to Jiang Huai.
"I called you yesterday to borrow money because of the show. I was playing a game at the time. This is the one million you gave me yesterday. I didn't move it. It's all here. I'll return it to you."
Jiang Huai didn't answer, and said with a smile: "There is no reason to take back what my brother gave you. You accept the pocket money I gave you."
Jiang Nian was expressionless and stubborn, he put the card on the coffee table in front of Jiang Huai, his attitude was very clear.
He didn't take a single thread from the Jiang family, and he didn't accept any gifts from the Jiang family.
"I heard that you exposed your identity on the show, how about it, do you need brother to cooperate with you?"
Jiang Nian lowered his eyebrows, "No need."
Jiang Huai, who was rejected one after another, still had a good temper and asked: "Today I received news that someone hacked you on the Internet. What's going on? Have you solved it?"
"Black?" This caught Jiang Cheng's attention, "What's going on?"
Jiang Huai explained: "Some people in the entertainment industry are jealous of Jiang Nian's popularity, so they asked someone to make up some black material behind their backs."
"Since you know about this kind of thing, why didn't you solve it?"
Jiang Huai was taken aback, he just knew about it not long ago, he was busy working with the Yi family recently, naturally he paid less attention to other things.
Jiang Nian did not accept this sentiment, if possible, he would rather not have any relationship with the Jiang family.
"The company will help me solve this kind of thing, don't bother. Is there anything else? Please go back if you have nothing to do. I'm tired and want to rest."
Jiang Huai was dissatisfied with Jiang Nian's attitude, and raised his voice, "Jiang Nian!"
Jiang Cheng glared at Jiang Huai, reminding him to pay attention to his attitude.
Regarding Jiang Cheng's unprincipled stance, Jiang Huai was very helpless, and softened his tone, "My dad and I came to see you specially, and we waited for you for hours, can't you get a glass of water?"
"Go in without saying hello, did you get my permission?" Jiang Nian glanced at him coldly, not wanting to say too much, "You can leave whenever you want, I'm tired, so I went back to my room to rest. "
"Stop!" Jiang Huai called to stop him, "What attitude? Sit down!"
"Okay," Jiang Cheng said, "Let him rest when he's tired. Why are you yelling at him?"
At the door of the room, Jiang Nian held the doorknob, clenched his molars, and said, "If you have nothing to do, please leave as soon as possible. Mom doesn't like you here."
The door closes.
The whole living room fell into silence.
Outside the window is the thick night, tightly fitting, not a single ray of light can be seen through, and even the lamp inside the house seems dim and powerless.
After a long time, there was a heavy sigh.
Jiang Cheng stood up slowly.
Fifty years old is not considered old, but the aging of the body is ahead of time. In just three or four years, he has gone from being a healthy middle-aged person to a dead tree and decaying plant.
He caressed the dilapidated sofa in the living room and looked at the dilapidated bamboo rocking chair on the balcony. It seemed that in the next second, a gentle and beautiful woman got up from the rocking chair and threw herself into his arms with a smile.
Jiang Cheng's voice trembled, "This is the place where your mother lived. Look, she likes this white lily plant. She always puts a bouquet where she can see it."
Jiang Huai silently followed behind Jiang Cheng.
"I have a feeling I should be seeing your mother soon."
"Dad, don't say that."
Jiang Cheng smiled, "I'm sorry for her, it's okay to see her earlier. This seems to be my second time here." He looked up and looked around the whole room, "It wasn't like this last time, you put this Has the house recovered?"
Jiang Huai nodded.
"Oh, that's alright."
After finishing his sentence, he leaned on the table and coughed violently, his heart constricted, and he felt pain like a needle stabbing a knife.
"Dad, are you okay?"
Jiang Cheng waved his hands, but was still out of breath, "It's okay, it's an old problem."
"I'll accompany you to the hospital for an examination tomorrow."
"No, I know my own body, don't mess around, don't you want to discuss cooperation with Yi in two days? After the cooperation is finished, I will go to the hospital."
Jiang Huai knew that he could not control Jiang Cheng's decision, so he glanced at Jiang Nian's room and could only say, "It's getting late, you should go back and rest early, Jiang Nian, I will take good care of him."
Jiang Cheng nodded, and the two left.
The night is even worse.
Jiang Nian stood at the window, looking at the Maybach leaving along the road in the community, and slowly lowered his eyes.
——
The matter of Jiang Nian being hacked, followed by Jiang Nian's swearing comments to netizens. Seeing that the black hands behind it were about to succeed, all the rumors and scandals about Jiang Nian disappeared overnight.
Xu Xinyi got the news in advance that it was Jianghuai who did it.
Having a backing is different.
In the future, Jiang Nian will not walk sideways in the entertainment industry.
Thinking of this, Xu Xinyi sighed again, they are all domineering presidents, why can't Yi Yang learn from Jianghuai? If she can cover her in the future, she can also walk sideways in the entertainment industry.
"Xin Yi, take a look at these dresses and see which one you like."
The gift An Ya sent is for tomorrow's TV festival awards event, the new season's high-end, show style.
Not much to choose, Xu Xinyi took a fancy to the white tube top sequined dress in the middle, which could perfectly reflect her figure curves.
"The organizer also invited Jiang Nian, you take him with you tomorrow."
"certainly."
The next day, Xu Xinyi got out of the car wearing a white tube top and sequined dress, stood at the end of the red carpet, smiled and looked at the media photographers and fans around him, Jiang Nian was wearing a well-fitting suit, with her hair turned back and faded Young and immature, you can initially see the prototype of JAC.
But Jiang Nian was obviously absent-minded today. Xu Xinyi mistakenly thought that he was too nervous, so he reminded him, "Don't be nervous, just follow me."
"Um."
A staff member came forward to remind him to enter, and Xu Xinyi led Jiang Nian onto the red carpet.
The sound of the camera rattling and the flashing light continued, Xu Xinyi smiled and waved his hands throughout the process, but Jiang Nian's face was tense, without a trace of a smile.
Until the end of the red carpet, the host asked questions after signing, Jiang Nian couldn't recover.
Fortunately, the host was also experienced, so he helped Jiang Nian out of the siege with a few words.
When he came to the arena, Xu Xinyi found his seat and sat down, which was adjacent to Jiang Nian.
"What happened just now? Why were you absent-minded? Did something happen?"
Jiang Nian smiled and shook his head, "No, I'm just a little nervous."
Xu Xinyi handed him water, "Drink a glass of water, you just need to sit and smile later."
Jiang Nian took it, took a sip and nodded.
The prelude to the opening was really slow, Xu Xinyi sat for a while and the stars did not come, Jiang Nian was silent again tonight, bored, he took out his mobile phone and sent Yi Yang a WeChat message.
Xu Xinyi: "My husband, do you think I am beautiful today?"
Xu Xinyi: "[Photo][Photo][Photo][Photo]"
Xu Xinyi sent him four photos of her dress before the red carpet.
Absolutely beautiful, simply out of place.
Soon, Yi Yang replied, "Beauty. TV festival?"
Xu Xinyi: "Yes."
Yi Yang: "When will it end? With whom?"
Xu Xinyi: "It hasn't started yet, it's early, Jiang Nian and I participated together."
Xu Xinyi: "The best actress tonight must be me, and I will definitely have a treat tonight, so don't wait for me."
Yi Yang: "Okay, I'm busy with something too, so I won't talk to you for now."
Yi Yang put down his phone, and heard the assistant say that Jiang's person is coming and has arrived.
The final cooperation between Yi and Jiang is also scheduled for today.
Yi Yang and the company's executives came to the conference room to meet with them.
As soon as he entered the meeting room, he saw Jiangcheng surrounded by everyone.
Yi Yang greeted him without changing his face, "I have heard that Mr. Jiang has handed over the company's full power to Mr. Jiang. I didn't expect that you, Mr. Jiang, will personally come forward for this cooperation."
Jiang Cheng's face didn't look very good, but he still insisted, "The cooperation between the two companies is very important, I don't worry, let's check."
"Please sit down."
The two parties sat down.
The executives of the two companies discussed the cooperation matters, and each argued against each other's points.
Yi Yang looked at Jiang Cheng calmly, who had not shown up for a long time and did not interfere in the company's affairs, thinking about the reason why Jiang Cheng came forward this time.
After a long time in the conference room, the communication between the two parties finally stopped, and the purpose was reached.
Only the final decision of the two parties is left.
"Since Mr. Jiang is determined to cooperate with Yi's again and get back together, I believe that Mr. Jiang came here with sincerity. After all, we have seen the efforts made by the people of the two companies for the cooperation during this period. , on the basis of the original contract, Jiang's 5% profit, this is the last condition of Yi's, I don't know what Mr. Jiang thinks."
"Five percent." Jiang Cheng looked at Yi Yang like an arrow, "Boss Yi is even worse than Mr. Yi back then. If it was Mr. Yi back then, he would never have boasted in front of me and asked me to give up 100% of the profit." five."
"Today is different. Since Mr. Jiang and I are now discussing cooperation, please consider my conditions."
"Five percent is too much, and three percent is Jiang's final bottom line."
Yi Yang shook his head, and looked at Jiang Cheng calmly, "In this case, I think today's negotiation is over, and we will cooperate again when we have the opportunity."
Jiang Cheng frowned, thinking about everything in his heart.
Jiang's family couldn't afford this project, after several considerations, they decided to cooperate with Yi's to swallow this project to maximize their benefits.
Apart from Yi Shi, he couldn't think of a better partner.
Once the cooperation is reached, Jiang's background will be enriched for at least another 20 years.
"Boss Yi," Jiang Cheng called him, stood up and extended his hand to him, "We are happy to cooperate."
Yi Yang reached out to shake hands with him, "Happy cooperation."
"We will add other details of the project as soon as possible, and the contract will be dealt with as soon as possible. At that time..." Jiang Cheng Weigeng, his face paled at a speed visible to the naked eye, supported the desk with one hand and tightly clutched his chest with the other, and slowly fell down .
The situation happened so suddenly that no one expected it.
"Dad!" Jiang Huai strode forward to support Jiang Cheng.
There was a moment of panic in the conference room.
Yi Yang frowned, and said sharply, "Call 120!"
The ambulance soon stopped at the downstairs of the company. What happened to Yi's, Yi Yang personally sent him to the hospital, but Jiangcheng was on the way, and his heart stopped beating for a while. When he arrived at the hospital, he was immediately sent to the emergency room.
The lights in the emergency room came on, Jiang Huai calmly called Jiang Nian, but no one answered.
"Look for it now, Hua Mingyuan, Xu Xinyi's studio, and find Jiang Nian immediately."
The assistant bodyguard next to Jiang Huai hurriedly left after hearing this.
Yi Yang remembered Xu Xinyi's participation in the TV festival today, "Wait, I'll make a call."
Then he called Xu Xinyi, but no one answered.
After hanging up the phone, he dialed Anya's number, and after waiting for a while, Anya answered the call.
"Hello, who is this?"
"I, Yi Yang."
"Yi Yang? Are you looking for..."
"I'm looking for Xin Yi, is Jiang Nian there?"
"exist."
"Give the phone to Xin Yi."
Anya handed the phone to Xu Xinyi.
"Who is it?"
"Your husband, there should be something urgent to find you."
Xu Xinyi put down the heavy trophy, "Hey, husband, you are looking for me..."
"Is Jiang Nian here?"
"… exist."
"You take him to the No. 1 Hospital immediately, Mr. Jiang is critically ill."
Xu Xinyi was startled, and suppressed all the smiles on his face, "I see."
In the hospital, the lights in the emergency room were on for almost an hour, and finally went out. The doctor came out of the emergency room with a sigh.
"Doctor, what's the matter?"
The doctor shook his head, "Mr. Jiang has woken up. Although we have temporarily restored Mr. Jiang's heartbeat, considering Mr. Jiang's current condition..."
Jiang Huai didn't listen to his nonsense, opened the door and broke into the emergency room.
In the emergency room, Jiang Cheng had a breathing mask on his face, and the heart rate monitor beside the hospital bed dutifully beeped to remind him.
A living person who was negotiating in the conference room two hours ago was dying two hours later, and the deadline was approaching.
Jiang Cheng slowly opened his eyes, and took off the breathing mask on his face with great effort, his eyes were filled with dead silence.
"What about him?"
Jiang Huai gritted his teeth, "On the way, it will be here soon."
"I... I can't wait anymore, you give him... call him."
"it is good."
Jiang Huai dialed Jiang Nian's cell phone, was answered after two rings, and put it in Jiang Cheng's ear.
In the entire room, apart from the sound of the heart rate monitor, only Jiang Cheng's rapid breathing could be heard.
"Niannian...it's Dad, are you listening?"
There was no sound from the phone.
"Dad is a little tired today, and I want to tell you something. Listen carefully to what Dad has to say, okay?" Jiang Cheng's breathing weakened, and he still said to himself: "Dad has done a lot of wrong things, I know you don't want to forgive me, But... remember when you were a kid riding a big horse on your daddy? The toys your daddy made for you, and... and the birthday cake your daddy made for you, you have to remember the good things about your daddy and forget about the bad things about your daddy, okay... "
"Nian Nian, Dad... I'm sorry, you're only eighteen, so Dad won't be able to take care of you anymore. In the future, you will listen to your brother. At home... there is no father at home, so you move back... move back to live, the room is reserved for you, no seal up."
Still no answer on the phone.
But Jiang Cheng knew that he was running out of time.
With difficulty, he made Jianghuai put down his phone, and told him: "Jianghuai, remember, don't stop the cooperation with Yi's, the two companies work together...Jiang's can... only..."
Jiang Huai said in a deep voice, "I understand."
Jiang Cheng struggled to breathe, raised his hand to hold Jiang Huai's hand tightly, and said every word with difficulty, "Also, you have to... take good care of your brother, set an example for him, don't lead him down, you can't be like me in this life... Same, remember?"
Jiang Huai replied with four words, "I remember."
"Remember... just remember..." A good word was still on the lips, unable to make the final sound.
A tear fell from the crease at the corner of Jiang Cheng's eyes, his pupils gradually faded, and in the empty sky, he seemed to see a beautiful and gentle woman coming to pick him up.
He held out his hand to the woman.
The hand holding Jiang Huai tightly hangs down.
drop-
The heart rate monitor made a screeching sound in the empty emergency room.
Jiang Nian asked him on the phone, "Is he dead?"
"Well, dead. Do you want to have a word with him?"
What responded to him was a long silence.
Jiang Huai stood by the bed in a daze, the phone was still in his ear, listening patiently.
"I don't want to, as I said, I will never say a word to him again in this life."
"It's okay, he's dead." Jiang Huai slowly covered the top of Jiang Cheng's head with the sheet, his eyes were dark red, and he let out a heart-piercing sob, "Jiang Nian, we don't have a father anymore."
The author has something to say: Since Jiang Nian did not die, the character of the key character was OOC
