It was already late at night when Su Cheng arrived at S City. He asked the other brothers to go to the hotel to rest first, and went to the bar on the third floor of Yemei alone.
He ordered a glass of wine and drank slowly while looking at his phone. The screen was empty and no one called him.
He wasn't expecting anything. But every time he sits here, there is a sense of unreality, as if he can see Yang Yang playing the piano as soon as he looks up.
Five years ago, he left his original world due to an incurable disease.
When he was dying, in order not to make Yangyang sad, he lied to him that he was just going to another world to live a good life.
He also said that one day the two brothers will meet in that world.
Unexpectedly, when he opened his eyes again, he really came to this world.
While he felt incredible, he also felt that it was a secret arrangement.
Because he saw Qiao Zhen and Qiao Yang brothers in this world, they were exactly the same as him and Yang Yang.
Also, the decorative pattern of the bar here, and even the shape of the black wooden wine rack behind it, are exactly the same as when he started the bar.
Too many coincidences made him feel as if Yangyang would really come here.
Therefore, over the years, he could not help but quietly observe Qiao Yang, the third son of the Qiao family, but he was disappointed every time.
Because this world's Qiao Yang is too far from his Yang Yang.
But just now Zhao Yu told him that Qiao Yang could easily give him a shoulder throw.
With the Qiao family's third son, Qiao Yang, whom he has known over the years, it is impossible for him to have that strength.
unless…
He looked forward to it, but he didn't dare to look forward to it.
He wrote the phone number of the bar that he used to operate in the world on the business card, and asked Xie Liang to send it to Qiao Yang.
That number is an auspicious number chosen by the brothers together. If he is Yangyang, you can guess who he is just by looking at the numbers written on it.
If he wasn't...
Yep.
It shows that Yangyang is still living a good life in the original world. With his strength, he should have released many albums and won many awards.
It's a pity that in this world, he can no longer hear the songs written by Yangyang.
At this moment, the mobile phone lying quietly on the black lacquered bar suddenly rang.
Su Cheng's hand holding the wine slammed, but when he saw that the caller was Li Feng, he let out a long sigh.
He was really bewildered.
He picked up the phone and asked, "What's the matter?"
Li Feng: "Brother Cheng, Li Songran, who contacted us some time ago, came to us just now. He said that as long as we can help him, he is willing to sell his life to us."
Su Cheng put down his glass and said lightly, "Sell your life to us? Then what he wants to exchange is too big."
"Don't worry about it, this person can't make a good climate."
Li Feng: "However, I think what he wants to change may have something to do with the Qiao Group. He may... want to take revenge on the Qiao family."
Li Feng and the others saw that Brother Cheng was so attentive to the young master of the Qiao family, so they deliberately investigated the matter of the Qiao family.
It was soon found out that Li Songran was charged and arrested by the Qiao Group, but chose to escape during bail.
Sure enough, Su Cheng hesitated. He asked, "Be specific."
Li Feng: "Li Songran originally worked for the Qiao Group. He used his authority to unite with several high-level employees of the Qiao Group and wanted to bring down the Qiao Group."
"Fortunately, the Qiao family found out in advance, found evidence in time, and appealed to them. Li Songran's crime was not serious, but he took the risk and escaped to find us. He should have wanted us to help him bring down the Qiao family."
Su Cheng chuckled: "Take his life in exchange for Qiao's? Does he really think his life is so valuable?"
People who are full of hatred for their own desires are inherently narrow-minded and despised.
What's more, although Qiao Yang still doesn't know if it's his Yangyang. But when I think of that exact same face, I can't bear to see him in trouble.
He thought for a while, and whispered: "You can make an appointment with him now, but don't see him, let alone expose yourself. Then create a small accident and attract the police to catch him."
Li Feng: "Yes."

Cultural Hall Lounge
Yu Huai had already left. But Qiao Yang was still leaning back on the chair, biting his cigarette and looking cold and unhappy.
Gu Ye sat next to him but was no longer flustered, but suppressed the surprise and did not dare to show it.
Originally, he had already coaxed people almost, but after Yu Huai came in, Qiao Yang's behavior towards him immediately seemed to be a different person.
Like a child who wants to get attention, comfort and pampering, but deliberately has a willful temper with adults.
Then he showed off this only pet that belonged to him to Yu Huai. Declared and warned that it was his property, and that no one would want to get the slightest bit of it.
He was very clear about Yu Huai's intentions, and many people present tonight saw it, and Qiao Yang could hear something even if he couldn't see it.
Therefore, Qiao Yang, who has always been polite and gentle to others, was the only one who was hostile to Yu Huai's attitude just now.
If Qiao Yang would instinctively show dependence in front of him before, then his performance just now was possessive.
His gentle attack has made Qiao Yang subtly fall in love with him.
He is about to succeed.
Especially when Qiao Yang motioned for him to light a cigarette, he raised his chin proudly, but lowered his eyes and scorned the domineering gestures around him, making him want to hug someone into his arms and rub them into his body immediately.
Use actions to make every piece of skin, every nerve, and even every cell in his body feel his indulgence and strong love for him.
In the end, he pressed on him with the strongest posture, and asked in a low voice beside his ear: Do you feel it
Gu Ye was so happy that he wanted to laugh, but he tried his best to press down the corner of his mouth that he wanted to bend.
After all, Qiao Yang was still angry, but he didn't dare to laugh out loud to add fuel to the fire.
He looked into his eyes and explained in the softest of words:
"The Charity Fund Gala under the S City Chamber of Commerce is held once a year. As the president of the Chamber of Commerce this year, I am responsible for entertaining and thanking every donor. So I have been entertaining them at the scene today."
"Yu Huai donated 50 million yuan to the Charity Fund of the Chamber of Commerce in the name of Lingfeng Group. He has become the corporate representative with the largest donation amount in this year's charitable activities."
"According to the regulations, he can stand side by side with me to take pictures at the opening ceremony, so I said a few words to him when I was over the ceremony table."
"but… "
Gu Ye's tone was even softer, trying to wash away the relationship between him and Yu Huai:
"The contact with him is only limited to tonight. After the charity party, there will be no connection..."
Before he could finish speaking, he saw Qiao Yang frowning, pinching the cigarette butt and poking it into the ashtray, pressing out the lit cigarette butt.
It looks like he doesn't want to talk about it.
Gu Ye immediately shut up.
Qiao Yang also knew that he was too obvious just now, but now he felt a little uncomfortable, but he didn't want Gu Ye to see it.
But after Gu Ye's explanation, Qiao Yang felt even more uncomfortable. It was as if he had seen through his mind so that he did not dare to face Gu Ye directly, but felt embarrassed.
He knew that Gu Ye was just an ordinary socializing with Yu Huai, and he shouldn't have reacted that much.
But he couldn't control it.
He understands that he is about...
He was very confused, and he clearly knew that Gu Ye cared and pampered him far beyond his friends.
He didn't know how to deal with this situation, and he didn't even know what to say to Gu Ye.
The lounge was quiet for a while.
Gu Ye spoke first to break the silence: "It's getting late, why don't we go back first? Do you want to go home tonight, or go directly to the resort?"
Qiao Yang's expression was always cold and indifferent, and there was a slight loosening, and he replied, "... Let's go home first."
Gu Ye asked again, "Do you want to be together?"
Qiao Yang really doesn't have a car at the moment. The two live opposite each other, and there is no need to be stubborn about it. He said, "Okay."
Leaving the lounge, Gu Ye followed behind Qiao Yang with excitement.
Qiao Yang already had a feeling for him, but he didn't get used to it for a while. Next, he just needs to take the initiative to guide slowly.
After a while, he let Geng Hui and Liu Wen leave by themselves, and he drove Qiao Yang home by himself.
The Guild Hall is far away from the Century Mansion. He drove slowly and Qiao Yang might fall asleep in the car.
After arriving at the Century Hall, he pretended not to wake him up and deliberately took him out of the car. If he woke up in a daze in his arms, he would gently comfort him and coax him to continue sleeping.
After that, he can take people home directly.
Intimate contact is the best catalyst for enhancing relationships.
Gu Ye planned well, and his mind was full of romantic pink bubbles.
As a result, when he arrived at the parking lot, he saw Liu Wen waiting for him and said:
"Young Master Qiao, the second young master sent a car to take you back to Qiao's house, saying that he has something to discuss with you tonight."
"You also said that you haven't lived in the Century Mansion for so long. You must have nothing at home. It would be more convenient to go back to Qiao's house."
Qiao Yang nodded in agreement: "Alright, I just happen to report the situation to him tonight."
He immediately said goodbye to Gu Ye: "I'll go back to Qiao's house tonight, you..."
He wanted to say the same as usual: Be careful on your way home and say good night.
But found it hard to say.
Finally, he said with difficulty: "...bye."
The pink bubbles in Gu Ye's mind instantly turned into a phantom.
Qiao Jin deliberately controlled his chances of approaching Qiao Yang during this one-month period.
But it doesn't matter, he's not worried anymore. Qiao Zhen and Qiao Jin could no longer stop him from chasing Qiao Yang.
He said goodbye to Qiao Yang with the same soft concern as usual: "Be careful on the way back, and contact me if you have anything. I will go to the resort to find you this weekend, and then we will go hiking together."
Qiao Yang nodded: "Okay."
Looking at Qiao Yang's back, the corner of Gu Ye's lips that he had been working so hard to press finally rose.
He felt that he could arrange a romantic confession ceremony next.
~
In the car, Liu Wen said to Qiao Yang, "Just now, the second young master called me and said he couldn't get in touch with you. Did he call you and you didn't answer?"
"I didn't hear it." Qiao Yang said.
Ever since he saw Gu Ye chatting with Yu Huai, his mind has been in a mess, and he has no intention to look at his phone at all.
After Liu Wen said this, he took out his mobile phone from his pocket and looked at it: a screen full of missed calls and unread messages.
He checked one by one.
The most recent is the missed call from Qiao Jin and Qiao Tiancheng, and the message asking him to go home.
Before, it was a missed call and message from Gu Ye. From the time point of view, it should be that Gu Ye was looking for him after he left, and sent a few messages [Where are you?]Information.
Qiao Yang watched for a while, then turned it off and turned it forward.
He turned to a few messages Xie Liang sent him.
[Brother Cheng, who played golf in the afternoon, came to you late at night, I don't know his intentions. But it doesn't look like it's looking for trouble.]
[He left a business card for you with a very strange number written on it, and I will send it to you.]
Qiao Yang was surprised: Brother Cheng is looking for him
Is it really the same as what Gu Ye said, that person ignored him at the time and was going to settle accounts after the fact
He clicked on the photo attached to the message.
One is the front of the business card. Occupation, position and name are written on it. As Gu Ye speculated, Brother Cheng's name is Su Cheng.
He opened the back photo again, and the first thing that caught his eye was a string of black ballpoint pens writing numbers.
Qiao Yang watched for two seconds, his eyes suddenly widened, he held his breath randomly, and the hand holding the phone trembled slightly.
After several seconds, Liu Wen noticed something was wrong with him: "Qiao Shao, what's wrong with you?"
"what?"
Qiao Yang woke up suddenly.
He looked up at Liu Wen, and he let out a long sigh of relief unconsciously.
"...No, it's fine."
His voice trembled, his fingertips trembling. It took a lot of effort to open the front of the business card.
He carefully looked at the mobile phone number printed on it, and his brain, which was already blank and buzzing, tried to write down the numbers one by one, and then dialed them again and again.
~
Su Cheng looked at the time, it was almost midnight.
He sighed sadly.
Just as I picked up the coat hanging on the back of the chair and was about to leave, the phone rang.
is an unfamiliar number.
The human body's response is amazing.
When encountering some things, there will always be a telepathy like a prophet. Especially in the face of the closest relatives, the reaction is particularly intense.
Su Cheng looked at the number, and then his heart was slammed, and he jumped wildly with a "dong".
He had a premonition that something was going to happen, he pressed down the answering phone with extreme caution and put it to his ear, before he made a sound, "... hello"
The other party's voice was hesitant, slower, and trembling than his: "Excuse me... Are you Qiao Sheng?"
Su Cheng stood tall and straight as if frozen, but the coat hanging on his arm fell to the floor.
He opened his mouth to answer, but it was like a ball of cotton stuck in his throat, which made him unable to make a sound for a long time.
After a moment of stillness, the other end of the phone came with an extremely disappointed vibrato: "...Sorry, I made a mistake."
"Yangyang!"
Su Cheng shouted fiercely, trying to break through the two words of obstacles, with a strange tone at the end. It attracted the attention of the surrounding guests.
"...It's me, it's Qiao Sheng."
Qiao Yang didn't know how he rushed over, but he just remembered that after he hung up the phone, he let the driver and Liu Wen get out of the car and rushed all the way to Yemei.
It seemed that it took a lot of effort to make him breathe tight and short.
He threw the car, and rushed into Ye Mei regardless of the greeting from the parking boy. He didn't take the elevator, and as soon as he climbed to the third floor, he crashed into a man's strong chest.
After his body was rebounded, he stumbled back a few steps, and after barely standing still, Qiao Yang glanced at the man.
He said casually, "Sorry."
Then he was about to run towards the bar when the man yanked him back: "...Yangyang, it's me..."
Qiao Yang was stunned for a moment.
The face of the man in front of him was unfamiliar, but his expression was familiar.
His movements, the ending sound when he was called Yangyang, and the look in his eyes were all so familiar.
It was like yesterday.
He shouted: "...Brother? Brother!"
Not a word was spoken after that.
Qiao Yang didn't know how long he cried, he was annoyed that he couldn't control his emotions. Obviously there are a lot of things I want to say and I want to ask Qiao Sheng.
I want to ask him why his name is Su Cheng, how long has he been here, how have the years been, where he lives, how is his health...
But as soon as he opened his mouth, the words were blocked, leaving only the tears that kept pouring out.
Qiao Sheng, no, Su Cheng.
Su Cheng drove the car and comforted him all the way, while he cried all the way.
After returning home, Su Cheng's coat, which he held in his hands, was wet with tears.
Qiao Yang asked him: "Did you drink wine tonight, do you have a stomachache? Would you like me to cook noodles for you?"
His eyes turned red again.
Su Cheng hugged him and patted his back distressedly: "Don't cry... Aren't we all fine?"

When Qiao Jin was waiting for Qiao Yang at home, she received a call from the police.
Tell him that there was a rear-end collision in the outskirts of the city just now.
The scene of the accident was not serious, but the whereabouts of the driver of the rear-ended vehicle after the traffic police rushed over was unknown.
The police checked the model of the vehicle and speculated that the car was the car that Li Songran drove when he collided with Liang Wei in Qingshan Resort.
And also changed the license plate.
Qiao Jin's heart sank.
From escaping during Li Songran's bail, to appearing in Qingshan Resort, and now appearing in the suburbs, it all shows what he is planning.
He was sure that Li Songran wanted to take revenge on Qiao, and there were people around him to help.
It is equivalent to the Qiao family and the Qiao family, who are now being stared at in the dark. If Li Songran can't be caught in a day, they can't feel at ease.
Xiao Liu, the driver who was thinking of picking up Qiao Yang, came back, but he didn't see Qiao Yang.
Qiao Jin asked, "Where's the third one?"
Xiao Liu: "Qiao Shao said he has something to do, let us come back first?"
Qiao Jin clicked his tongue: "It's so late, where did he go?"
Xiao Liu: "I, I don't know either. After the third young master answered the phone, he left in a hurry."
Got a call
Qiao Jin looked worriedly at the rear-end collision information sent by the police, and he immediately called Qiao Yang.
No one picked up.
He was even more worried. He checked the location of the car, and the map showed that the coordinates of the car's location were in Yemei.
"It's so late, why are you still playing night games?"
Qiao Jin frowned and called Ye Mei's supervisor directly. Qiao Yang was there, and if he was there, let him answer the phone.
Supervisor: "Master Qiao San is not here now. An employee saw him leave with a man just now."
Qiao Jin: "Leaving with a man? What man?"
The supervisor told the truth: "We don't know each other. He is a person who doesn't come to Yemei very often. The security guard in the parking lot said that when he left with Qiao Shao, he drove with the license plate number of city a."
Going to Yemei are almost all acquaintances and regulars, even if they are not people who have a bit of a face in S City, they will not be ignorant.
And it's still someone with a foreign license plate number.
Qiao Jin was restless.
But after all, it is not certain that Qiao Yang really had an accident. He didn't disturb Qiao Tiancheng, and hurried to the Century Mansion with the room card of Qiao Yang's house, first to see if anyone was at home.
It was already past two in the morning, and he looked up downstairs and saw that the lights in Qiao Yang's house were still on.
Qiao Jin breathed a sigh of relief.
At the same time, I couldn't help but want to blame him: I haven't slept at home yet, why didn't I answer his phone
He quickly went upstairs and knocked on Qiao Yang's door.
When Qiao Yang opened the door for him, his expression was a little strange, his eyes were red, as if he had cried.
Qiao Jin was puzzled, and when he was about to ask him what was wrong, he saw an unknown man appearing in the living room of Qiao Yang's house.
The man stood tall and looked at him.
There was a rebellious aura in his lazy expression.
Qiao Jin's heart immediately rang out, and he asked in a low voice, "The third child, who is he?"
Qiao Yang explained falteringly: "Just, just a brother, I just recognized it."
Joe Jin: ? ?
He and Qiao Zhen were on guard against Gu Ye, but they didn't expect the third to recognize a wild brother for them? !
