One thing that Xu Tingsheng could never tell Zhou Yuandai to understand was:
It is precisely because of the existence of these people, as well as their success, happiness, consummation, or growth in this life... His rebirth in this life becomes more meaningful. So, how could he be jealous of their happy and stable life? How could he have the heart to drag them into this vortex where they were powerless to struggle
Zhou Yuandai and him are completely opposite people.
August 2007.
In response to the current economic situation, the Federal Reserve has intervened strongly and injected liquidity into the US financial system to increase market confidence. The US stock market has been able to maintain a high level and trading is booming... The situation seems to be reversing, and Wall Street's confidence has also begun to rise again.
"Show me that list." Zhou Yuandai said sitting opposite Xu Tingsheng.
Xu Tingsheng took out the list that he found to be very soft and even frayed, and put it quietly on the table.
"That's right, I really hope you can be like this forever..." Zhou Yuandai flicked the list in her hand, and the traces of looking through it could show her how much Xu Tingsheng cared about these people, "I will increase my bet, because I always think that, Crisis is the biggest opportunity for us as prophets. During the Asian financial crisis in 1997, my assets tripled. This time... I hope you will not let me down... I hope you understand the consequences of letting me down."
It's hard to tell the truth from what she said.
But Xu Tingsheng judged that he could at least 70% believe it, because the current Zhou Yuandai was too anxious, too eager to prove herself again, too eager to re-feel the energy of being a prophet, too obsessed with the glory of the past... At the same time, she was too worried, Xu Tingsheng The Prophet expires.
"You don't seem to have much emotional fluctuations." Zhou Yuandai looked at Xu Tingsheng and said.
"You also had a prophet. If I knew the outcome earlier, I wouldn't be too excited." Xu Tingsheng said.
"That's right, the days are a little boring, right? It's time to go. Let's go to another place. Let's go to the United States to stand with Wall Street and harvest the 'wool' from all over the world. You are allowed to apply to go out at that time, but you must be accompanied by someone. You can call home, and you need someone to accompany you. By the way, is there a shortage of women? You can enjoy the women who are in charge of taking care of you. If you are pregnant, I will arrange to get rid of it... Or do you have a favorite female star or something? , I’ll let someone take a look, and if it’s convenient, I’ll get it for you.”
"Need not."
"Tut tsk tsk..." Zhou Yuandai smiled jokingly, "You really are a sweetheart! I really don't need to get that little girl here for you?... Then how about Wu Yuewei? I have an impression of her, and it was mentioned in the previous daily report, And gave her a lesson once. That little girl was nice...and I guess she'd come if I had someone tell her you're in hell."
Xu Tingsheng remained silent.
"Do you want that beauty in Paris? You plan to have a child with her. I heard that her body has recovered very well..." Zhou Yuandai tried to see something in Xu Tingsheng's eyes, and continued: "That woman is really... beautiful When I saw it for the first time, I really wanted to destroy her!"
"After 2009," Xu Tingsheng interrupted her, "After 2009, let me go back and live my life..."
This was the first time Xu Tingsheng expressed his thoughts on the future.
Zhou Yuandai froze for a moment, then said, "Look at your performance."
In fact, Xu Tingsheng knew very well that in 2009, regardless of whether Zhou Yuandai believed that his prophetic period was over, even if she really believed, the panic of losing the prophet again and the longing for the same kind... would still allow her to continue to control Xu Tingsheng.
He said that, just trying to accumulate Zhou Yuandai's sense of urgency little by little, forcing her to panic, throwing down more chips uncontrollably every time.
…
At the same time, in August, Paris.
Li Wan'er's body had recovered for a while, but You Qinglan still didn't go to work and stayed by her side.
"I want to find him." Perhaps for the hundredth time, Li Wan'er said this sentence again.
"You're here again! Haven't I already told you many times? Since he is like this, he doesn't want to contact you at all, and you finally survived. What's the point of going to him now?"
You Qinglan pretended to hate iron but not steel. She actually knew that Xu Tingsheng was missing, and Xiang Ning called her to ask where Xu Tingsheng was going.
That little girl once wondered if Xu Tingsheng's departure was actually because he chose the woman he had promised to have a child with in the end.
Xiang Ning even mentioned that she wanted to see Li Wan'er.
You Qinglan blocked all the questions, comforted Xiang Ning, and at the same time concealed everything from Li Wan'er.
Because in fact, You Qinglan may be the one who knows the most about the situation at present. She is the only one who has received concrete and specific threats. She has seen gunpoints chasing her and Li Wan'er like a shadow, and she can't avoid it no matter what.
Therefore, she could even roughly guess what happened to Xu Tingsheng.
It's just these, she dare not tell anyone. She just wanted to keep Li Wan'er stable, or protect Li Wan'er well... It would be best if she could completely break away from everything related to Xu Tingsheng.
The thin Li Wan'er was sitting on the sofa, looking out the window.
"I just want to know, why did he treat me like this... Even if he just lied to me at that time, I understand and appreciate it for my good operation... Even if he repented, I would accept it... But why did he do this, without saying a word Said, no text messages, no phone calls... "
"I just thought, see him again, even if it's just to thank him in person, and then say goodbye."
"I just want to... Hear him say it again, Xu Tingsheng and Li Wan'er are settled. I really appreciate him... So if I don't bother him, it will make him happy, and I will definitely do it this time."
"But he has to tell me... Otherwise, I can't help but fantasize, afraid that he actually has some difficulties, and think that he actually... still cares about me, even just a little."
"..."
You Qinglan, like You Qinglan, has actually heard these words countless times. She had tried countless times, and knew that she couldn't persuade her, and there was no way to persuade her, so she had to listen to it... At the same time, she was prepared to listen to it a few more times.
As a result, when You Qinglan got up early the next day, he found that Li Wan'er had disappeared.
After a short period of panic, she quickly guessed where Li Wan'er had gone. After chasing back to China from Paris, and then to Yanzhou, Li Wan'er finally answered her call, and the reason was that Li Wan'er didn't know how to find Xu Tingsheng next.
"Go, come back with me." The two met on the agreed street, and You Qinglan couldn't help but say immediately, pulled Li Wan'er and left.
"I won't go. I saw him and didn't speak. I went back when I saw him, okay?" Like a little girl, Li Wan'er hugged the sycamore tree by the roadside, "Can you help me find him?"
You Qinglan took Li Wan'er with one hand, stopped, panting helplessly, "He's not in Yanzhou."
"Then where is he, do you know? Take me, okay?"
"I have no idea."
"Then how are you sure he's not in Yanzhou? Forget it, if you really don't want to help me, I'll find it myself... I'm in good health now... I can take care of myself... don't worry... you go to work, I You have been delayed for a long time."
Li Wan'er deliberately used her words to play with anger. After speaking, he got up, broke free from You Qinglan's hand, turned around and walked forward.
You Qinglan came up from behind and pulled her.
"Don't pull me, I told you I don't need you!" Li Wan'er shouted loudly.
"I don't need to take care of you? I will accompany you when you are sick and recover... Why can't I take care of you?" You Qinglan also said loudly.
The two super beauties were arguing like little girls on the streets of Yanzhou.
"I..." Li Wan'er was at a loss for words, "I don't care, I must find him anyway."
"Li Wan'er, can you be more mature?"
"No, I'm just stupid. He said it long ago."
"I'm afraid you will die!"
"I don't need you to care if I die."
The two kept tugging, and You Qinglan discovered for the first time that Li Wan'er was stubborn like this.
The quarrels and fights continued to escalate. You Qinglan, who had been afraid of Li Wan'er's irritation, was so emotional that she couldn't control it for a while and blurted out, "He's dead!"
With just this sentence, Li Wan'er stopped struggling and quarreled.
She turned around and looked at You Qinglan, "What did you just say? I..."
"He's dead." Seeing that Li Wan'er's body was fine for the time being, You Qinglan thought about everything, and decided to solve the problem once and for all. It's better to let her suffer once, than if she continues to torment like this, and she will be killed at some point.
"He is really dead... I did some things without telling you." You Qinglan looked around and threatened himself in a low voice, deliberately asked Xiang Ning to tell Li Wan'er and Xu Tingsheng the agreement, forcing Xiang Ning and Xu Tingsheng to break up Wait until everything is said at once.
"So, it should be that person who attacked him. If you look for him again, you will only take your own life and mine." You Qinglan finally said.
"I see. If you have a chance in the future, apologize to Xiang Ning for me and say sorry."
Li Wan'er answered in a calm and low voice, and then fell to the ground all at once.
…
In August, Xiang Ning started summer tutoring early because of her senior year in high school.
There is a plan from Li Linlin, Xu Tingsheng said that the progress of the school must not fall behind...Xiang Ning is actually very hard.
During this period of time, she has been going back to this home. Apple and Wu Yuewei have been here for a while during the holidays, and Du Jin has moved back... Because Xiang's parents are worried, Xiang's mother also takes turns to come over to accompany her from time to time.
Xiang Ning was optimistic in front of everyone.
Unlike before, she started to write a diary.
Every day she wanted to tell Xu Tingsheng but couldn't, she wrote it down in her diary...
"Oh, why haven't you come back? I've sung that song a hundred times, and you said that you came to see me in two days, and the wait lasted for more than a year..."
"Admit a mistake to you. I was at home today and washed one of your clothes torn. I just want to help you wash your clothes. You used to do it for me. I want to be more sensible now. But you didn't Dirty clothes... I had to wash that one every time I wanted to wash it, but... today, after rubbing it, it suddenly broke."
"A while ago, I talked with Sister Apple and Sister Yuewei about you every day... It feels amazing. It turns out that each of us likes you for different reasons.
Anyway, I must be the one who likes you the most, because I have already gained the most for nothing.
By the way, let me praise you, I feel more and more that you are so charming. Are you happy? "
"I just came back from evening self-study, and I'm in bed now. I'm in my third year of high school, and I'm really tired! But I will work hard, don't worry.
By the way, guess which university I want to go to
I want to take Yanda University. Because I am afraid that you will not find me immediately when you come back, so I must stay in Yanzhou.
Moreover, that is your alma mater, where you lived! There must be many shadows of you there.
I know that it is very easy for you to take the test of Rock University. Your score is so high, it is because of me that you came to Rock University. But, for me, it's a key university, and the scores are so high, it's so difficult to take the exam... Alas, Miss Xiang, a college scum, must work hard.
Good night. "
"I'm a little shy today, because I suddenly thought of something, and I want to ask you, what did you say I gave you after graduation... Do you still want it? I will definitely not reflex this time, I will not pinch my legs, I will not kick anymore You. I mean it."
"I had a dream last night. I dreamed that you came back. I opened the door for you. You immediately picked me up, entered the room, and threw me on the bed... After that, I had no conditioned reflex."
I don't know if there was such a diary in the past three years.
