A few minutes passed.
Seeing that Du Yan's state was a little off, Xiao Ba proposed: "The development trend is so strange now, do you want to forcibly leave? Let's fight again next time."
Du Yan sighed: "Things have come to an end. After more than ten years in this dream world, I feel a little unwilling to give up like this."
He tried his best to suppress the anxiety in his heart, gathered some chaotic emotions in his mind, and began to recall the details of these years.
Du Yan suddenly thought of a person, who was a key figure in the original movie's plot, Fang Xiangxiang. After He Jin ran crookedly, Fang Xiangxiang's sense of existence became lower and lower, so low that he almost became a passer-by.
After He Jin disappeared eight years ago, Du Yan initially monitored Fang for a while to find out his whereabouts, but Lewis never found anything.
Fang Xiangxiang stayed at M University as an exchange student for a year, and then returned to Beicheng University to successfully graduate. After that, she applied for a postgraduate study in a foreign university and went abroad to study.
After Fang Xiangxiang graduated, Du Yan felt that nothing was the same, and the country she went to, Lewis, did not have many contacts, so she gave up monitoring her.
Later, even Fang Xiangxiang's whereabouts are unknown. After graduating from graduate school, she did not return to China or settle in that country, and her mother was also taken out of the country.
At this time, Du Yan felt that something was wrong, Fang Xiangxiang's whereabouts were unknown, and He Jin should also be inseparable.
But since Fang Xiangxiang and He Jin went to start a business together, which happened to be in line with Du Yan's plan, he didn't interfere any more.
He suddenly said: "If Fang Xiangxiang has been with He Jin all the time, things shouldn't be irretrievable."
Xiao Ba didn't say anything, and felt that Du Yan was a little too optimistic, and things were probably not that simple.
Thinking of this, Du Yan felt that there was still hope for everything, and his psychological tension relaxed a little.
He turned and walked to his desk, where he put his personal belongings in a cardboard box.
Du Yan has very few things, but some commonly used notebooks, pens and the like. If it wasn't for He Jin running in just now to disrupt the situation, he would have been on the plane back to Beicheng this time.
After finishing packing, he walked out the door with the cardboard box.
"Uncle Xie... Mr. Xie." The young woman sitting in the assistant's seat at the door stood up.
Her long hair was neatly tied up and she was wearing a professional suit, looking very smart and capable.
Du Yan was slightly taken aback, not because of how good-looking she was, but because the face was very familiar. This is not who Fang Xiangxiang can be. Even if his face becomes mature and his dress is very different from his student days, Du Yan still recognizes it at a glance.
Fang Xiangxiang came forward to greet him: "Mr. Xie, are you going to have lunch? Mr. He has set a seat at Wenfeng Pavilion. His meeting should be over soon."
"No, the matter here is over, I'll go home." Du Yan finished and walked towards the elevator.
Fang Xiangxiang turned around and blocked Du Yan in front of him. She folded her hands and made a gesture of begging: "Uncle Xie, don't make it hard for me. When He Jin comes back and sees you're not here, he will lose his temper."
Du Yan stopped and glanced at Fang Xiangxiang.
Seeing that there seemed to be a drama, she continued her efforts: "He Jin is my boss now. If he messes up this matter, he will deduct my bonus."
Du Yan didn't think that He Jin would really deduct the bonus because of such a trivial matter. He stopped just because he noticed an unusual place.
On the ring finger of Fang Xiangxiang's left hand, there is a ring set with broken diamonds.
He suddenly thought of a detail. When he was in the office just now, He Jin also seemed to be wearing a ring on his ring finger. It's just that he was too confused at the time, and he didn't take this detail to heart at all.
Fang wants to get married? The object is still He Jin
Could it be that the emotional line of the original plot of the movie has not collapsed, and the plan is still on track. He Jin's strange behavior just now was just for revenge
These questions lingered in Du Yan's mind. He thought for a moment and said, "Okay, I'll stay and wait for He Jin. Could you please bring me coffee."
"No problem." Fang Xiangxiang showed a somewhat happy smile on his face.
Du Yan turned around and walked into the office, sat down on the sofa, and thought about how he should know what Fang thinks about later.
He and Fang Xiangxiang were not too familiar with each other, they just nodded, and it was impolite to rashly inquire about the other's marital status. Then we can only use He Jin as an introduction to inquire in a roundabout way.
It didn't take long for Fang Xiangxiang to bring in the coffee.
"I'm going out first, call me if you need anything." Fang Xiangxiang put down the coffee and said softly.
"Wait." Du Yan called to her, "Please sit down."
Fang Xiangxiang thinks that even though she is no longer the young student she used to be, she is also a resolute business elite in the shopping mall, but in front of Du Yan, she is always inexplicable.
As soon as Du Yan's voice fell, she sat down obediently.
"What's the matter with you?"
Du Yan pondered for a moment, then asked, "He Jin has had a hard time starting a business over the years?"
Du Yan thinks about his attitude from Fang Fang, and can infer that he did not tell the other party those things. Otherwise, from the information Du Yan forged, he can be regarded as the father who killed Fang Xiangxiang.
Fang Xiang thinks that no matter how kind he is, it is impossible to face the enemy who killed his father with such a peaceful attitude.
"Actually, when I joined He Jin's company, his company had already passed the initial stage of its establishment and was quite large." Fang Xiangxiang only thought that Du Yan was out of his status as an elder and only cared about the junior He Jin.
Although she didn't know why He Jin, who had been very reliant on her uncle, suddenly fell out with Du Yan, and never even contacted him. But she could also see that He Jin still attached great importance to his uncle.
If he could help the two of them reconcile, He Jin would probably be able to restore a bit of his original appearance, instead of his gentle, but never sincere smile.
Fang Xiangxiang saw that Du Yan nodded slightly, and continued: "But even so, he still works very hard, as if to prove something."
"As his entrepreneurial partner, you should have worked hard."
Fang Xiangxiang smiled shyly: "I'm not that good, I've been working as an assistant to He Jin."
Du Yan said: "Assistant's job is not easy to do, there are many details to pay attention to. Many girls in the financial industry do not even have time to go shopping and fall in love."
Fang Xiangxiang touched the ring on his finger subconsciously and smiled sweetly: "In fact, although I am busy with work, I work and struggle with my beloved, and I don't think it is so hard."
As soon as she finished speaking, she felt that it seemed inappropriate to mention these in front of Du Yan: "Sorry, I digress."
Du Yan asked: "It's okay, you and He Jin..."
Before he could finish speaking, the door of the office was pushed open and He Jin walked in.
He half-smiled and said, "I don't seem to be here at the right time, and you two are very good at chatting."
Fang Xiangxiang stood up: "Mr. He, I'm busy."
He Jin waved, indicating that she could leave.
Du Yan felt that the way the two of them got along was a bit strange, and they didn't look like a husband and wife when they spoke unfamiliarly and politely. However, Du Yan thought about it, it is the correct way to deal with it.
"Uncle, what have you been doing looking at Fang Xiangxiang?" He Jin was slightly dissatisfied, and opened his mouth to call Du Yan's attention.
Du Yan's eyes fell on He Jin again. He took a look at He Jin's hand, and sure enough, on the ring finger of his left hand, he was wearing a silver ring.
The ring was a little different from the one in Fang Xiangxiang's hand. It was a very simple style, with no diamonds or other extra decorations. However, it is normal for men and women to have different styles of rings.
The rings on their hands let Du Yan see a ray of dawn. Du Yan didn't plan to return to Beicheng until the things that Fang Xiangxiang had figured out. After all, after going back, there should be no chance to think about contact with Fang again.
After He Jin finished lunch, of course he sent Du Yan back to the company. Du Yan's plan was contacted with Fang Xiangxiang in the afternoon, and he did not raise any objections.
"Uncle, Xie Boshun is too useless. He is called the chairman of the board, and I have to do everything." He Jin sat on the sofa in the office, and didn't want to go out.
"… "
Du Yan is a little unbelievable, is He Jin acting like a spoiled child? Does he still remember that he is not the eighteen-year-old boy, and the relationship between them is not the original close family.
"But the Xie Group is a place where my uncle has worked and spent his hard work. I will definitely protect it."
He Jin's second grade speech made Du Yan suddenly see the 16-year-old boy again, and he finally couldn't stand it and said, "You can go to work."
Seeing Du Yan's cold expression, He Jin knew the seriousness of the other party's treatment of work, and he no longer had to take an inch, and walked out of Du Yan's office obediently.
Du Yan returned to this office in order to contact Fang Xiangxiang. However, throughout the afternoon, Fang Xiangxiang never appeared again, and the assistant who stayed outside became Xiao Lin who picked him up in the morning.
Before dinner, when Du Yan walked out of the Xie family, he was not stopped. On the contrary, Xiao Lin went to the garage very actively and drove the car out, and Du Yan understood what was going on when he got in the car.
In the back seat of the car, there was a familiar figure sitting impressively.
He Jin lowered his head slightly and stretched out a hand: "Uncle, get in the car."
Du Yan ignored his hand and sat in the back seat.
He Jin didn't care, and withdrew his hand: "Let's go home."
"Go home?" Du Yan looked over.
"Yeah." He Jin smiled innocently, "I don't have any real estate in Nancheng, and I've been living with my uncle. You wouldn't be so heartless and want me to sleep on the street?"
Du Yan was unmoved: "You can stay in a hotel."
"I'm not used to it, I'm not used to the things in the hotel." With a mature and handsome face, He Jin sat on something completely incompatible, "I can't sleep in the hotel, if I can't sleep, I get a headache, and when I don't sleep I get a headache. Can't work..."
Du Yan understood, He Jin was just playing a rogue.
People in the investment business can travel 300 days out of 365 days a year. Nowadays, it is a big joke to say that he is not used to living in a hotel and can't sleep in a hotel. He can't always buy a property in every city he wants to go to.
Du Yan never wanted to talk to such a rambunctious person. He turned his head and looked at the scenery outside the window without speaking again.
Anyway, that place can be regarded as He Jin's home. When he went to Beicheng, Du Yan thought about transferring this house to He Jin. Later, due to various reasons, it was not possible.
Now that He Jin took over the Xie family, he probably would have to live in Nancheng often, so it would be a good idea to give him that house.
Seeing that Du Yan acquiesced to this matter, He Jin did not bother to tease him again.
After a while, the car stopped outside the garden.
When Du Yan walked into the house, he found that the empty living room was actually filled with furniture. The furniture is exactly the same as when they lived here, in terms of style and color.
He Jin walked in behind, and saw Du Yan's eyes stay in the living room: "Uncle, how is it, I know your habits."
The password of this house has never been changed, and Du Yan didn't ask He Jin how to move things in.
He just asked: "You sent back the things from Beicheng with great trouble?"
"How come, you are used to those things, and you will definitely live in Beicheng by then." He Jin took off his suit and hung it on the coat rack at the door skillfully.
"These are the sets that I have made to order from those pieces of furniture."
After dinner, Du Yan originally wanted to go upstairs to rest, but was dragged by He Jin in the living room half-heartedly, saying that he and his uncle and nephew should catch up with each other after not seeing each other for many years.
"Why didn't you see Fang Xiangxiang this afternoon?"
He Jin took off his glasses and placed them on the coffee table, leaning casually on the sofa. Only then did Du Yan realize that what he had been wearing seemed to be a pair of flat glasses.
Du Yan picked up the single sofa and sat down, and asked, "Why didn't I see Fang Xiangxiang this afternoon?"
"What, do you miss her?"
Du Yan looked over with a blank expression.
He Jin spread out his hands: "Just kidding, Fang Xiangxiang is naturally busy with work, so I put her next to my uncle, but I'm going to be jealous."
"Why did you let her stay outside my office in the morning?"
He Jin was stunned for a moment, then smiled again: "I'm very jealous, uncle. You don't know how attractive and eye-catching you are. I don't want more people to see you and follow you. Talk, know you, Fang Xiangxiang, anyway, I knew you before..."
Du Yan ignored He Jin's messy logic, but frowned slightly and said with a bit of displeasure, "You are a family man now, don't say such ambiguous words to me."
He Jin was a little stunned. This was the first time Du Yan saw other expressions on his gentle face after the reunion.
Afterwards, He Jin covered his face, and his shoulders began to tremble slightly.
In the face of this suspected perverted He Jin, Du Yan really couldn't guess the other party's mind at all. He couldn't even tell whether He Jin's current intense emotions were due to the anger of being exposed or some other emotion.
After a while, He Jin raised his head, with a smile that didn't disappear on his face.
"Uncle, I'm really happy. This is the first time in eight years that I'm so happy. When you said that just now, on the day of my first successful merger, I was even more happy..."
Du Yan looked at him without any emotion and didn't answer, because he didn't want to be led away by this obviously neurotic person in front of him.
He Jin didn't care about Du Yan's indifference, and continued: "I'm happy, one is that you finally treat me as a man, uncle, so you feel that my actions are too close and ambiguous. The other is that I am very Happy uncle, you are jealous because of what Fang thinks about."
"Jealous?" Du Yan finally couldn't help but speak.
"Yeah, you thought Fang Xiangxiang married me, so you were unhappy and even questioned me."
Du Yan said: "I just don't like this kind of suspected cheating behavior based on my own moral values."
"Uncle, don't you care about me? Haven't you been using me all the time? Then why are you educating me because I suspect I have done something wrong? The family is not in harmony, and the wives and estrangements in the end, you should be indifferent. Then why are you interfering in this matter again, this is completely different from the purpose you showed."
He Jin's logic was obviously unreasonable, but Du Yan couldn't find a place to refute it. He couldn't say that he was trying to get enough to eat, so he absolutely couldn't see He Jin's vision or feelings ending in tragedy.
Looking at He Jin's expression, Du Yan only felt his temples throbbing. He stood up silently and walked upstairs: "I'll go up to rest."
"Wait." He Jin stood up and took Du Yan's arm, "I have to clarify one thing before I think about marrying someone, not me. Don't wrong me, uncle."
Du Yan didn't look back, but with a slight movement of his arm, He Jin let go.
He walked to the stairs and looked back, He Jin was still standing in the middle of the living room.
The moonlight today is not good, and only a yellow floor lamp is lit in the living room. The whole living room is like a faded poster, everything blurs the boundaries and is indistinct.
The only thing that was really clear was He Jin, who was standing there, wearing black trousers and a white shirt. His whole person was cold-toned and out of place.
The expression on his face was warm, the blurred light softened his lines, and even brought a bit of pitiful taste.
Maybe it's because the atmosphere is too warm, maybe it's because the lights are too ambiguous. Du Yan's heart softened for some reason.
"I see. You also go to bed earlier." Du Yan said.
Looking at He Jin's bright eyes, he wondered if he had done something superfluous. After all, things were suspected to be derailed, and now only Fang Xiangxiang still had a glimmer of hope left.
Du Yan closed the bedroom door and said to Xiao Ba in his mind: "If it is confirmed tomorrow that Fang Xiangxiang is indeed married to someone else, then he should force himself out of the dream."
"I'll prepare."
Forced to leave the dream, in order to prevent damage to the master of the dream, it is necessary to assist Xiao Ba to set up a formation before leaving.
After Xiao Ba finished contacting with the main body, he said, "Ready. You can leave at any time tomorrow."
"Um."
"Well, after staying in this dream world for so long, wouldn't it feel too bad to leave so easily?" Xiao Ba suddenly asked.
"Otherwise, what can I do? If Fang Xiangxiang really married someone else, the whole plot line would be completely derailed and irreversible, and it would be meaningless to stay." Du Yan paused, "Now He Jin, I don't know him anymore. What exactly do you want, if you make this nightmare and don't eat it, it will create a new nightmare instead..."
Xiao Ba was silent for a while, then Na Na said, "Actually, I think it's very easy to eat this nightmare."
Du Yan didn't expect that Xiao Ba would have a way to solve the derailment situation in front of him: "Tell me about it."
"I am a split of Dandelion. Thinking about things is not as complicated as yours. In my opinion, what He Jin wants is very simple. He just wants you to accompany him. Then you can stay with him, love each other and be a family for the rest of your life. Yet?"
Although Du Yan's emotional intelligence is low, He Jin's performance is too obvious, and he can't ignore the other party's unusual feelings.
"Son, you are still too simple. You still have to be disciplined. I won't agree to PY trade just to get enough food..."
After he finished speaking, he no longer paid attention to Xiao Ba who was confused. After washing up, he went to bed, ready for the next day's trial.
In the early morning of the next day, Du Yan had no objection to He Jin's act of taking him to the Xie family as a matter of course.
The car parked outside the garden was still the same car from yesterday. It's just that there are two people standing next to the car, a man and a woman.
The beautiful woman in a professional suit was Fang Xiangxiang, and the other man, Du Yan, had never seen him, but he felt a little familiar to him.
Just when Du Yan was thinking about where the other party was coming from, Fang Xiangxiang walked up to the strange man and said hello.
"Mr. He, Mr. Xie."
Fang Xiangxiang saw that Du Yan's eyes fell on the person next to him, smiled, and said, "Oh, I almost forgot, Mr. Xie, you don't know Yezhou."
"Mr. Xie, this is my husband, Chen Yezhou."
As soon as Fang Xiangxiang's words came out, Du Yan suddenly realized.
Chen Yezhou, the little brother Bai Yueguang who was thinking about in the movie, was the man who walked into the marriage hall holding her hand in the last scene of the movie.
Until he got into the car, Du Yan was still thinking about why his efforts in the early days were for. Obviously everything was planned, why has everything changed in the past eight years.
Fang Xiangxiang still wants to marry Chen Yezhou, what happened to the ring on He Jin's hand.
"Uncle, what are you thinking, so ecstatic?"
The sound of being close at hand made Du Yan come back to his senses. He saw He Jin leaned over and put one hand on the armrest of the car door.
Du Yan suddenly had the illusion of being held in his arms by the other party, and the breath that belonged to He Jin rushed to his face, which made him come with a crisis from the bottom of his heart.
"The way you think is special, it's heart-warming..." After He Jin said this, he lowered his head slightly.
Du Yan decisively shouted in his head: "Xiao Ba, get away."
He Jin's body suddenly stopped, and the surrounding scenery began to become a little blurry. Knowing that this was a sign of forcibly leaving the dream, Du Yan closed his eyes and waited for the moment when everything returned to nothingness.
What awaits, however, is a soft touch on the lips.
Du Yan suddenly opened his eyes and saw He Jin's face close at hand, as well as the surrounding scenery that became clear again.
The pause for a few seconds just now had never happened.
Xiao Ba's somewhat flustered voice sounded: "Du, Du Yan, things are in trouble, I can't forcefully leave!"
Xiao Ba's words exploded in Du Yan's brain like a thunderbolt from the blue sky, leaving him sluggish. Even He Jin's gentle kiss didn't make him move at all.
