They left contact information with each other, and then Zhou Yue separated from Doctor He Qiu. After He Qiu left, Zhou Yue was still sitting in the coffee shop, holding his mobile phone, staring thoughtfully at the newly added numbers in the phone book.
The newly added numbers in Zhou Yue's phone book, except for He Qiu's phone number just obtained. There is also a number, which was given by Xu Lin, the number of her younger brother Xu Haoyu.
Reminiscent of what He Qiu said just now that Mu Qin's comrade-in-arms was named "Xu", Zhou Yue took it for granted that this comrade-in-arms surnamed Xu could only be Xu Haoyu.
After all, Xu Haoyu is the only comrade-in-arms who is at the same time as Mu Qin and whose surname is Xu.
It just so happened that Xu Haoyu's sister gave Xu Haoyu's cell phone number to Zhou Yue. Zhou Yue began to think about how to get Mu Qin's whereabouts out of Xu Haoyu's mouth.
These bodyguards who followed Zhou Yue 24 hours a day, at best they were bodyguards, at worst they were monitors, who replaced Xie Zhu to monitor Zhou Yue's actions.
They will tell Xie Zhu every detail of Zhou Yue's every move.
Therefore, Zhou Yue called Xu Haoyu next. If Xu Haoyu learned of Mu Qin's whereabouts and planned to go look for Mu Qin, Xie Zhu would definitely know about it.
With Xie Zhu's personality, she will definitely come here and do everything possible to stop Zhou Yue. If she couldn't stop it, she would pass this matter on to Zhou Yue's father, Zhou Xiyuan, and let Zhou Xiyuan handle it.
Xie Zhu is easy to deal with. She is Zhou Yue's biological mother after all. Although her feelings for Zhou Yue seem alienated and indifferent, in most cases, she will choose to tolerate and tolerate Zhou Yue's outrageous behavior.
Her tolerance and tolerance are actually very obvious... Even if Xie Zhu knew that Zhou Yue fell in love with a man of the same gender, she did not tell her husband Zhou Xiyuan about it immediately, because she knew that once Zhou Xiyuan knew If the son is gay, he will definitely "control" Zhou Yue without hesitation.
Yes, this statement is not an exaggeration at all, Zhou Qiyuan will "control" Zhou Yue. Similar to imprisonment in disguise, Zhou Xiyuan will take all extreme measures to restore his son to "normal". In Zhou Xiyuan's world, what he thinks is normal is normal.
Zhou Xiyuan did this before. It was when Zhou Yue was in elementary school. Zhou Yue was naughty and lively as a child. He didn't like the various cram schools that Zhou Xiyuan arranged for him. One day he was really overwhelmed by the heavy study pressure. , ran away from home like other children, trying to win the attention of their parents in this way.
But within a few hours of Zhou Yue's departure, he was quickly found by the Zhou family, and then he was locked up for half a month. He was really locked in the bedroom and couldn't go anywhere. .
Zhou Xiyuan piled up a pile of learning materials in front of him, and asked five or six tutors to give him lectures in turn. If Zhou Yue doesn't study hard, he won't have food that day.
Since then, Zhou Yue has developed a fear of the Zhou family and Zhou Qiyuan.
He understood at that time that Zhou Xiyuan never regarded Zhou Yue as his own flesh and blood at all. This man was so indifferent and frightening that Zhou Yue even once doubted whether Zhou Xiyuan had human emotions.
Many times, Zhou Xiyuan looked at Zhou Yue as if he was looking at an object, or something else...
By the way, his gaze seemed to be staring at a monster.
This kind of look makes people feel uncomfortable, and Zhou Yue still remembers it fresh.
Thinking about these messy things, Zhou Yue took a sip of untouched coffee and looked out of the window of the cafe, pretending to be depressed.
Not long after, the bodyguards at the next table couldn't sit still, and one of the bodyguards came up and asked Zhou Yue: "Mr. Zhou, Madam told us not to let you stay outside for too long. Your health is not good, so why don't you stay outside for too long?" Should we go back?"
Zhou Yue didn't speak, he remained silent. Silence is actually very easy to give people a sense of oppression, especially when others want something from you, your silence will double this oppressive feeling. Zhou Yue handles this kind of psychology very skillfully.
Even though the bodyguard in front of him was a seasoned and experienced soldier, when facing such a sickly Zhou Yue, his nerves were still tense unnaturally, and he dared not relax at all.
After a while, Zhou Yue replied slowly and leisurely, "Okay, but before that, I have to go to the bathroom."
When the bodyguard heard Zhou Yue's words, he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief for some reason, and his tense nerves gradually relaxed. He immediately smiled and said, "Then I will push you to the bathroom."
The bodyguard was very attentive, and immediately went around behind Zhou Yue, pushed his wheelchair and walked towards the bathroom of the coffee shop. When passing by the remaining bodyguards at the next table, he greeted them.
Then the bodyguard pushed Zhou Yue to the restroom of the coffee shop. The coffee shop is very upscale, and there is actually a special restroom for the disabled to provide for special people with reduced mobility.
So Zhou Yue pointed to the single room for the disabled, and signaled the bodyguard to push him in.
The bodyguard did as he did, and after pushing Zhou Yue in, he withdrew respectfully, said "call me if you need it" before leaving, and waited at the door of the bathroom.
Zhou Yue didn't want to go to the bathroom at all, and after entering the toilet room, she took out her mobile phone and called Xu Haoyu.
The call was connected quickly, and Xu Haoyu over there saw that it was a call from an unfamiliar number, so he answered politely and asked, "Hi, who are you calling?"
"I'm looking for Xu Haoyu." Zhou Yue deliberately lowered her voice, so as not to let the bodyguard waiting at the bathroom door hear.
Xu Haoyu frowned and said, "I am... who are you?"
"I'm Zhou Yue." Zhou Yue replied, "Is Mu Qin with you?"
Xu Haoyu's brain froze for a moment when he heard this, and his first thought was: His sister is definitely cheating him! He actually gave Zhou Yue his private mobile phone number!
But Xu Haoyu quickly regained his composure and replied cleverly: "Mr. Zhou, I don't understand what you mean. Mu Qin has been out of the army for many years, and I haven't contacted him for a long time. He can't be here with me."
Zhou Yue said: "I don't have time to talk nonsense with you, let me ask you... Is Mu Qin unconscious now?"
Xu Haoyu subconsciously clenched the phone in his hand, paused for a moment and said, "What do you mean?"
"Let me ask you... Is he unconscious now?" Zhou Yue repeated, "If he keeps sleeping and has repeated nightmares, please tell me."
Now Xu Haoyu couldn't continue pretending not to know, because Xu Haoyu was also very worried about Mu Qin, even though Mu Qin had already reported to Xu Haoyu in advance before falling asleep, saying that he might sleep for a long, long time, he still let Xu Haoyu don't worry, he said he will wake up.
But Xu Haoyu was still worried, who would say that if he fell asleep, he would really fall asleep and not be able to sleep again
The longer Mu Qin was in a coma, the more worries Xu Haoyu accumulated. He had asked his sister to check Mu Qin's body repeatedly, but the results were normal. Mu Qin did not have any diseases. The brain scan also showed normal. His nerve cells are active, proving that he is conscious.
But why can't I fall asleep all of a sudden
Xu Haoyu contacted the previous "monster" who possessed himself and threatened Xu Lin with his body. Xu Haoyu was terribly afraid that something similar would happen again.
In addition, Zhou Yue suddenly lost his memory this time, and he forgot all the things he woke up before. He didn't even remember Mu Qin. that moment.
Things surrounding Zhou Yue and Mu Qin were so weird, but Xu Haoyu couldn't sit idly by Mu Qin no matter what. Therefore, Xu Haoyu clenched his fists, weighed it, and said to Zhou Yue on the phone: "Mu Qin is indeed in a coma."
"He has been in a coma for several weeks, but there is nothing wrong with his body. The cause of the coma is unknown. Do you know what is going on? Do you have a way to wake him up?"
"...I have." Xu Haoyu's words made Zhou Yue confirm that Mu Qin was indeed under Xu Haoyu's protection, which made Zhou Yue slightly relieved, but also a little worried.
At this moment, what Zhou Yue thought of was what the psychiatrist He Qiu had said to him before, because He Qiu said that some people who become "dreamers" will die unexpectedly, and some will not be able to sleep.
Therefore, after Zhou Yue called Xu Haoyu, she subconsciously wanted to confirm Mu Qin's status.
Knowing that Mu Qin's condition is not good at the moment, Zhou Yue calmed down a lot in addition to being anxious. He knew that he was under surveillance and under house arrest, and he couldn't go to see Mu Qin himself, so at least... Qiu and Xu Haoyu and the others had to connect.
Zhou Yue still doesn't know whether He Chou's remarks about "Crystal Stone", "Dreamer", and the inheritance of the He family are true or not. He doesn't have the time and ability to verify these, so he can only leave it to Xu Haoyu Well, at least the Xu family still has power and ability, and Zhou Yue can rest assured that Mu Qin is under their protection.
Therefore, Zhou Yue briefly described what He Qiu said to Xu Haoyu, and then gave Xu Haoyu He Qiu's mobile phone number, and asked Xu Haoyu to ask He Qiu himself if he had any questions.
The phone call between Zhou Yue and Xu Haoyu took a lot of time, and the bodyguards who were waiting outside at the door of the bathroom were already very impatient, and finally couldn't help but come in and knock on Zhou Yue's door. So Zhou Yue hung up the phone, pushed the wheelchair out, and calmly said to the bodyguard outside the door: "Let's go back."
The bodyguard immediately put away his dissatisfaction, pushed Zhou Yue's wheelchair respectfully, sent him to the Zhou family's car, and took him back to the Zhou family mansion. But when Zhou Yue returned to the Zhou family, a long-lost face appeared in the Zhou family mansion.
Zhou Yue's father - Zhou Xiyuan.
Zhou Xiyuan actually returned to the Zhou family mansion. As soon as Zhou Yue entered the door, he saw this "above" father standing in the living room. He was wearing a valuable brand-name suit. He was tall and slender with a handsome face. He seemed to have exercised for a long time, so his appearance Not at all like a fifty-year-old man.
Xie Zhu next to him was untying his tie, looking very close.
In Zhou Yue's impression, Zhou Xiyuan was a workaholic who stayed in his company almost 24 hours a day. He rarely comes home, almost using the office as his bedroom, or traveling all over the world.
365 days a year, Zhou Xiyuan will only occasionally bring Xie Zhu and Zhou Yue with him when attending certain public events or banquets, creating a happy atmosphere for the whole family. At other times, even on holidays, Zhou Yue couldn't see him.
Every time Zhou Yue sees this "father", she feels that the other party is just a stranger who happens to be related by blood.
If Zhou Yue's face was not partly inherited from Zhou Xiyuan, Zhou Yue would even doubt whether she really had such a genetic connection with Zhou Xiyuan.
This long-lost "stranger" actually came home today, which actually shocked Zhou Yue...or Zhou Yue was taken aback. But Zhou Yue wouldn't show the surprise on his face. He kept silent after entering the door, not saying a word or even moving.
On the contrary, Zhou Xiyuan, who had always regarded Zhou Yue as nothing in the past, turned his attention to Zhou Yue today uncharacteristically, and asked Zhou Yue, "How is your body?"
Am I dreaming? This guy actually cares about me? Zhou Yue immediately recalled the past days in her mind. Zhou Yue also called Zhou Xiyuan "Dad" when she was a child. Zhou Xiyuan didn't respond, but looked at Zhou Yue with a cold gaze, looking at "foreign objects".
Zhou Yue was very keen when she was a child. After being stared at by Zhou Xiyuan a few times, she never called Zhou Xiyuan's father again. Later, their father-son relationship was basically the same as that of superiors and subordinates. He would do whatever Zhou Xiyuan told him to do, and he would not resist or have the ability to resist.
When she grew up a bit, Zhou Yue used the reason of joining the army to escape from this terrible family.
Zhou Yue, who had been silent all this time, did not answer Zhou Xiyuan's question, and Zhou Xiyuan did not force him, but looked down at his wife Xie Zhu who was leaning on his shoulder in front of him, and asked, "How is his physical condition?"
Xie Zhu replied: "He is recovering. The doctor said that he is in good physical condition, and he is estimated to be able to recover in less than a month."
Their conversation made Zhou Yue vaguely understand something. It seems that the reason why Zhou Xiyuan cared about Zhou Yue's body was to see if Zhou Yue was worth "using".
However, what Zhou Xiyuan said next was even weirder. After basically understanding Zhou Yue's physical condition, Zhou Xiyuan suddenly said to Xie Zhu: "You two, mother and son, go on a trip."
This sudden sentence frightened Xie Zhu, Xie Zhu raised his head to look at her husband with widened eyes: "Qiyuan... what did you just say?"
"I said..." Zhou Xiyuan paused, "Take your son out for a stroll. Going abroad to relax or something is good for your recovery. I will send someone to follow you to take care of him at any time. It's not a good thing to keep him in the house all the time. "
Xie Zhu has always listened to Zhou Xiyuan's words the most, but Zhou Xiyuan's request was so sudden that Xie Zhu was puzzled and at a loss... After opening her mouth for a long time, she suddenly realized that Zhou Xiyuan's move was actually to drive her and Zhou Yue away. Expenditure in the country, so he hesitated: "When do you want us to go out?"
Zhou Xiyuan actually put on a smile unconsciously, although he couldn't tell it from his indifferent face, "The sooner the better, let's leave within three days. You can choose any place to travel, and you can travel around the world without any problem." , I will prepare all expenses, manpower and turnover."
Zhou Yue, who was listening to Zhou Xiyuan and Xie Zhu's arrangement over there, couldn't bear it anymore, and finally spoke up: "What does it mean to throw me out of the country, a patient who can't even walk?"
Zhou Xiyuan glanced at Zhou Yue calmly: "It's too much of a hindrance for you to be here."
