In the gazebo, there was silence.
The man who rushed out suddenly caught everyone off guard, including Jian Shiwu who was in a daze. He was sitting in the middle of the gazebo, looking at Gu Duan who was standing beside him. Before, he thought that he might never get back with this man again. There will be some concerns, but a sudden and unprepared encounter in such a place is enough to touch people a little.
Donald was also very surprised by the child's arrival: "Rui'er, I'm chatting with the invited guests, you..."
Gu Duan said in a bad tone, "You fart!"
The vulgar language is completely inappropriate for an elegant old man.
Sure enough, Donald's complexion turned a little bit bad, but Gu Duan didn't care at all: "The business in the mall is settled, why are you involving these innocent people?"
"Rui'er." Donald said more seriously, "This matter is of great importance, so we can't mess around."
Gu Duan sneered: "Because of Charles?"
The two of them, the father and son, were talking about charades like a bible, and Jian Shiwu who was listening was confused, but all he could do was watch from the side.
then
Donald took a deep breath: "Rail, Charles is also your brother."
Gu Duan had a sarcasm on his face: "I don't know him well."
As we all know, before Gu Duan was claimed at the age of 20, the eldest son of the Tang family was known to be Charles. Even if he was recognized, many people thought that Gu Duan was an illegitimate child. The illegitimate child was actually Charles.
Donald clearly understood that the two children were incompatible.
He said to the bodyguard next to him, "Take Mr. Jane to visit the manor first."
Jian Shiwu still wanted to listen for a while, but the bodyguard had already walked over, as if asking him to get up, but in fact there was no discussion at all.
Gu Duan glanced at Jian Shiwu: "No, he's right here."
The atmosphere in the pavilion froze again.
Donald's hand tightened, and finally said: "Xiao Rui, you can't ignore your brother's life or death."
Gu Duan opened his lips indifferently: "Shen Cheng has already put him back."
"But the 20% of the shares still haven't come back." Donald looked up at Gu Duan, his hypocritical face finally showed some success: "Do you understand what this means!"
Gu Duan was silent.
Looking at his son's stern face, Donald sighed and said, "Xiao Rui, I told you a long time ago that as long as you want, I will give Charles the high position, and of course I will give it to you, but you don't agree. Go to China to be the director of some project team."
Gu Duan sneered: "Why, there is no way to use it for you, are you very angry?"
"Charles lost a leg over there." Donald said softly.
Gu Duan's eyes widened in surprise.
Donald seemed to have aged a lot suddenly, he looked at Gu Duan and said, "Xiao Rui, Shen Cheng is not as simple as you think."
then
Donald glanced sideways at Jian Shiwu and said, "I know this is your friend, so of course I didn't plan to do anything to him. I just wanted to keep him here for two days. When Charles comes back, I will send him away."
Gu Duan paused.
The man seemed really lost in thought, he hesitated for a while, and looked at Jian Shiwu next to him.
Jian Shiwu frowned, and his whole body was in a tense state, with reluctance written all over his face, why would he let him go when Charles came back? It sounds nice, but in fact, he used himself to coerce Shen Cheng Well, Monkey and the others are still uncertain, how could he be willing to stay here
Gu Duan whispered: "You..."
Jian Shiwu gently shook his head at him, expressing clearly that he didn't want to stay here, he wanted to go out, he didn't want to be Shen Cheng's burden, he knew that he shouldn't have such hopes for Gu Duan, but he didn't know why, At this moment, he still begged Gu Duan like this, begging him to help him.
…
The air was silent for a moment
quite a while
Gu Duan turned his face away, and he said to Donald: "You can keep it, don't hurt him."
Donald smiled and nodded: "Of course, after all, I don't want to be enemies with Shen either."
Jian Shiwu's current fate was decided by a few words.
The light of hope gradually faded in his eyes. It is hard to say whether it is disappointment or not, but Gu Duan still weighed the pros and cons and stood on the side of his own family. Presumably, their friendship is not deep, so they can do this. It's already been benevolent.
Jian Shiwu slowly calmed down, met Gu Duan's eyes unexpectedly, the man was also looking at him, from his eyes, inexplicably, he actually saw guilt and guilt in the eyes of such an incomparable man. Dodging, because of this, Jian Shiwu slowly smiled at him, a relieved, polite and grateful smile, without any blame.
But strangely, it was precisely because of this lack of blame that Gu Duan's heart was inexplicably suffocated, as if from this moment, they already had something that they could never turn back.
…
After a brief negotiation, Jian Shiwu was arranged to live in the manor.
This manor is really big. He was arranged in a room, and there were many bodyguards outside. No one came to confiscate his mobile phone and personal property, as if he was sure that even if he had these things, he must be It's the same as what you can't use.
There was no torture, and someone even delivered an exquisite dinner at dinner, but facing the soup on the table, Jane had no appetite at noon, and when night came, he huddled in the chair in the room On the table, watching the electronic watch on the wrist rotate little by little.
"Boom"
Suddenly, a bolt of lightning flashed outside.
Jian Shiwu's whole body froze, and he stood up from the chair in shock. He looked back at the window behind him with some fear, and saw the wind blowing outside, and the sky was gloomy, which was a harbinger of a storm. The weather is the most nervous and frightening thing for him, the house leak happens to rain all night, why is it going to rain.
Squatting down against the wall, he forced himself to calm down, not to think about some messy things, but even if he covered his ears, the sound of thunder and lightning sounded as if it could shatter a person's soul.
It was raining quickly, and it was very windy and windy outside.
Jian Shiwu didn't drink a drop of water on the plane during the day, and came here after getting off the plane. He didn't dare to eat Donald's food. This would cause stomach throbbing pain, hypoglycemia came, and his head was a little dizzy.
"drop"
In the space without any signal, although the thunder was piercing, the electronic watch turned on, illuminating the room at night.
Jian Shiwu's eyes widened, and he looked at the lit surface like a man in distress grasping at straws. He put the watch to his ear with some excitement, and asked tentatively in a low voice, "Shen... Cheng?"
The current over there "sizzled" a few times
Then came a familiar male voice: "It's me."
Jian Shiwu took a deep breath. In an extremely unsafe situation, once a person really encounters a straw that reassures him, his psychological defense will collapse instantly. He pursed his lips, suppressing the agitation in his heart, and could not speak Come on.
The man's voice rarely contained obvious worry and anxiety: "Is there any injury?"
Jian Shiwu bit her lips tightly.
Shen Cheng continued: "Did they bully you?"
"It's thunderstorms today, they locked you up." Shen Cheng's voice came to his ears clearly: "Would you be very scared?"
At this point, the tight string in Jian Shiwu's mind really broke, as if a defense had been broken, his nose was sore, and he said aggrievedly: "No."
"Don't worry, I'm fine." Jian Shiwu's voice was hoarse: "I'm not afraid at all."
There was silence on the phone.
The more sensible Jian Shiwu was, the more distressed and depressed the man on the other end was.
Just after this suspicious silence, it was strange that the electronic watch had no sound. Jian Shiwu was blunt at the time, saying that he was not afraid, but when the watch really fell silent, when another lightning strike fell, his whole body He shivered and covered his ears again.
In the dark room, by the window, he huddled into a ball.
"click"
The button of the window was opened silently.
Then, a figure nimbly jumped into the room. When Jian Shiwu was still immersed in the uncontrollable psychological pressure, his cold hand was held by a somewhat warm palm, and he looked up in shock. He met a pair of familiar With his dark eyes, Shen Cheng's face came into view, which made people both surprised and delighted.
Jian Shiwu: "You..."
Shen Cheng pulled the man into his arms, and after many days of hugging, the man was very strong, clasping his waist tightly, and even breathing a little heavy, even without any words, Shen Cheng could still feel some The suppressed emotions and such a tight posture gave Jian Shiwu the illusion that he was going to merge with the other party.
Jian Shiwu spoke with some difficulty: "Shen Cheng, it hurts..."
As if waking up from a dream, Shen Cheng immediately let go of him, his eyes were like eagles: "Are you injured?"
At this moment, he seemed to see a murderous aura visible to the naked eye on the man.
Jian Shiwu quickly shook her head and said, "No, no, you just strangled me and I hurt a little."
"..."
Shen Cheng paused, then pinched Jian Shiwu's face reassuringly.
Jian Shiwu looked towards the door vigilantly, and whispered: "Why did you come here? There are many people outside. If they are found, it will be dangerous. They all said that they will let me go after two days. Even if they don't Let me go, people outside will find out that I'm not here, and they will definitely call the police. Donald doesn't dare to do anything to me, he is so hostile to you, why did you really come here, you..."
He babbled a lot, but Shen Cheng just looked at him quietly, and even saw that the man was so energetic, the corners of his mouth even evoked a faint smile.
Then, after Jian Shiwu finished speaking, Shen Cheng took his hand, his voice was low and hoarse: "It's raining today, you will be afraid if you stay alone."
Jian Shiwu was stunned.
He just looked at Shen Cheng foolishly, but his heart was extremely hot, his nose was sore, but his heart was sweet.
Shen Cheng wiped his face and said, "Are you hungry?"
Jian Shiwu hesitated for a while, then nodded slightly.
"I'll take you to dinner."
Under Jian Shiwu's shocked gaze, Shen Cheng took his hand and stood up. Just when the two of them were about to move, the door outside was also opened from the outside.
The bodyguards broke in, Donald stood at the door, looked at Shen Cheng with a smile and said, "Good evening."
Shen Cheng patted Jian Shiwu's hand comfortingly, nodded to Donald, looking very polite: "Uncle Tang."
"Xiao Cheng."
Donald smiled and said, "I don't know, you are already so impolite now, come here as a guest without saying hello, why, do you think this is my back garden?"
Shen Cheng calmly said, "Uncle Tang invited my little friend to be a guest, did you say hello?"
Tang Na suddenly realized: "That's uncle's rudeness."
"It's not as good as this..."
The gentleman-like man said: "You took away 20% of my shares, and uncle has to show something. You two came to be guests with great difficulty. Why don't you just stay and let me treat you well?"
The atmosphere is on the verge of breaking out.
There were all Donald's bodyguards outside, and logically speaking, this should be the territory of the Tang family.
But Shen Cheng stood there calmly, and just when Jian Shiwu was too nervous, suddenly, there were a few discordant voices outside, and then a bodyguard came in like shit.
Donald said displeasedly, "What's the matter?"
The bodyguard gasped and said, "Sir, Kate's family is here. They said that their young master's lover came to visit today but has not returned yet. They are here to ask for someone."
what the hell.
The Kate family is a very well-known family in country M, and the business in the undercurrent is their entrenched territory. No matter how big the business is, they must be courteous in front of the Kate family. Generally, they are not easy to offend, and it is impossible for them to provoke them.
Donald was displeased: "What lover, is there a mistake? I have no grievances with their family. Who is it from the Kate family who came to trouble me?"
"The people from Eagle Hall, and their young master, Kate Joan."
