TN: bonus chapter💕

The neon lights of the city were flickering at night, and in the street lined with bars where young people liked to gather, people could be seen pressed shoulder to shoulder, flushed, dressed conservatively or revealingly. Even passing by, one could smell the unique scent of nightclubs, mixed with the smell of alcohol and other smells that one couldn’t tell whether it smelled good or bad. Walking into the nightclub, the deafening music seemed to burst the eardrums, and if a person wanted to talk they had to raise the volume of their voice to yell.

Qin Yue was sitting in the VIP area at the highest floor of the nightclub. The friend next to him had an arm around his little lover and was about to go down to the dance floor to have fun. When he turned his head, he found that Qin Yue was frowning tightly, and his face was extremely pale.

You c an fi nd t he la te st cha pte rs at ( th e bl mu se . c o m )

The friend and Qin Yue had known each other for a long time, and they could be regarded as quite familiar with each other, so he asked a little strangely: “Ah Yue, are you in a bad mood?”

Qin Yue didn’t speak, but the knuckles of the hand holding the wine glass were clearly popping out because of the force he used.

Friend: “It’s rare to come out to play, don’t be so serious, how about I call a beautiful woman over for you?”

“Ai, I almost forgot, you don’t like women.” The friend squeezed the breasts of the woman sitting on his lap, and said with a smile, “Call a handsome guy over for your Brother Qin, and make sure he isn’t someone from the circle.”

The woman covered her mouth and giggled: “Sure.”

Qin Yue suddenly said, “No need.”

The friend sighed: “Ah Yue, how long has Su Shiqing been gone, listen to me, as long as he has feelings for you, he won’t disappear as soon as you go abroad, no matter how infatuated you are he won’t care. “

The friend was a playboy and couldn’t understand Qin Yue’s feelings for Su Shiqing. In his opinion, so long as Qin Yue wanted a little boy like Su Shiqing, there would be many similar to him throwing themselves over with a beckon of his fingers.

Qin Yue had a cold face: “It’s not because of him.”

The friend was taken aback: “No way, you finally figured it out? Weren’t you quite hung on Su Shiqing?”

“You should have listened to my advice no ago and not waste the entire forest for a crooked-neck tree.”

“Right? Xiao Meng?” The friend smiled and kissed the woman.

Xiao Meng also laughed: “Brother Qin is so infatuated, it makes one envious.”

Qin Yue scratched his hair impatiently, and his friend finally realized something was wrong, so he quickly took out a card and stuffed it into Xiao Meng’s pocket: “Baby, go dance by yourself first.”

Xiao Meng winked and left tactfully.

“Who is it this time?” The friend lit a cigarette and handed Qin Yue another one, but Qin Yue didn’t take it. The friend was very clear about Qin Yue and Su Shiqing’s affairs, but he had never had the chance to see Su Shiqing in person.

He also knew that Qin Yue had been obsessed with Su Shiqing for a long time, and thought that Qin Yue would be with Su Shiqing for the rest of his life.

Qin Yue drank a glass of wine, actually rather than drinking it, it was more like being poured down his throat. He turned his head and asked his friend: “Do you think Shen Zhen hates me?”

“Shen Zhen?” The friend didn’t react for a while, he hadn’t heard the name Shen Zhen from Qin Yue’s mouth for a long time, and he had to think for more than ten seconds before matching the name with the person. He didn’t dare to say directly, “You fell out with him? I remember that Shen Zhen was very clingy to you before. We used to say that he was your little follower.”

At that time, Shen Zhen was exquisite and fair-skinned. When standing beside Qin Yue, everyone would involuntarily look at him more than once.

The friend still remembered how some friends joked that Shen Zhen was Qin Yue’s child bride. Shen Zhen’s face became as red as a ripe apple at that time, and in the end Qin Yue beat up the friend who said that.

After the beating, Qin Yue walked up to Shen Zhen and told Shen Zhen with a gentle expression that he would not allow anyone to insult Shen Zhen in any way.

At that time, everyone thought that Qin Yue would be with Shen Zhen.

It was just that they didn’t expect Su Shiqing to appear later.

After Su Shiqing appeared, Qin Yue became a different person.

The friend blew out a smoke ring. He wanted to ridicule Qin Yue, but in the end he just sighed: “Now you want to go back to find Shen Zhen again? I advise you to not be serious and just play around, but if you have you should be sincere.”

Qin Yue didn’t speak.

“Whatever, I can’t persuade you anyway.” The friend smiled, “Anyway, Shen Zhen likes you so much, you just need to say a few soft words.”

 Qin Yue frowned and said: “He…..seems unwilling to have contact with me, and I suspect…..”

The friend asked strangely: “What do you suspect?”

Qin Yue lowered his head, making it difficult to see his expression: “I suspect that he and my uncle…..”

“No way!” The friend stood up excitedly, “It’s been so many years, and don’t even mention gossip, there hasn’t even been any news. I used to suspect that he didn’t have that kind of…..cough cough…..impulsion, aren’t you overthinking yourself?”

Qin Yue sighed: “I also hope that I think too much.”

The friend patted Qin Yue on the shoulder: “I think you are just too nervous. We can all see how Shen Zhen has treated you for so many years.”

He still remembered that when the several of them skipped class and went out together, Qin Yue got in trouble with some hoodlums. At that time, Shen Zhen had thin arms and legs, but he still rushed over after making a phone call——although the result of rushing over was to be beaten together with Qin Yue.

Although the group of hoodlums had an even worse fate afterwards, for young masters like them who were spoiled since childhood, don’t even mention being beaten, their family hardly even spoke a harsh word to them.

When Qin Yue was in trouble, the most they could do was call their family members. They didn’t dare to go over, they only dared to watch from the sidelines.

Later, people came and the hoodlums were arrested. Shen Zhen and Qin Yue supported each other to stand up, and seeing each other’s wounded face, they even burst into laughter.

Since then, the several of them had no prejudice against Shen Zhen, and even thought that if they could find someone who was willing to face thick and thin with them no matter what they encountered, even if it was a man, it would also be quite a nice thing.

No one expected what happened later.

The friend also took a sip of wine: “To be honest, you should really be sorry to Shen Zhen for the past few years.”

Qin Yue nodded, without retorting: “I know.”

The friend asked him, “What is it about Su Shiqing that you fell in love with? Is there anything you can talk about together? If I knew earlier, I would have come back earlier to meet the person who our Eldest Young Master Qin had become so obsessed with.”

Qin Yue took another sip of wine: “I don’t know either.”

At the beginning, he just thought that Su Shiqing was Shen Zhen’s friend, and he took care of him for Shen Zhen’s sake. He was also busy at that time, and he didn’t have time to care about Su Shiqing.

When did he first notice this person?

He remembered that Su Shiqing seemed to have moved his documents once.

At that time, he had no interest in this person and wanted to drive this person out of the Qin family, but he didn’t know how to tell Shen Zhen.

Then…..Qin Yue couldn’t remember what happened afterwards.

He only knew that his attention was always involuntarily shifted to Su Shiqing.

When Su Shiqing was aggrieved, he would also be sad, and if Su Shiqing was happy, he would be happy too.

Soon he began to ignore Shen Zhen, and even sometimes when Shen Zhen was clearly standing beside him, he couldn’t see him at all.

His feelings for Su Shiqing swept over him fiercely, but when he thought about it carefully, he couldn’t find any clue, any sign, he fell in love just like that.

He had never thought about this before, but recently he often thought about it.

When he and Su Shiqing were together, they always talked about lovey dovey stuff, and a sentence could be repeated several times without even becoming bored. Now that he thought about it, he couldn’t believe that he could say such things.

Su Shiqing had never been to university, never worked, and didn’t know the ways of the world. He needed the care and love of others, he was a flower that would wither if there was even a slight change.

The friend said: “Actually, I felt that you and Su Shiqing wouldn’t last long, you two have nothing in common. You and Shen Zhen at least grew up together. Besides, we all see how Shen Zhen treats you. I remember at the very beginning, we all felt that Shen Zhen was not good enough for you.”

“Later, I felt that it was your fortune that Shen Zhen took a fancy to you.”

“If someone could treat me like Shen Zhen treats you, maybe I would have settled down long ago.”

Qin Yue: “It’s meaningless to say this now.”

Qin Yue was a little depressed: “He treats me differently now.”

The friend didn’t believe it: “The way I see it, he must be angry with you. Think about it, you and Su Shiqing were like that before, it would be strange if he wasn’t angry. Let me tell you, when a man encounters relationship problems, he is actually no different than a woman. Just coax him well and it will be fine.”

Qin Yue looked at his friend.

The friend laughed: “I have experience, right? My ex-girlfriends can line up around the city twice.”

“F**k!” The friend suddenly exclaimed.

He looked ahead with glowing eyes: “That chick is my type!”

A woman walking not far away was wearing a dark red dress, which only covered to the top of her legs, revealing a pair of long and straight legs, white and flawless. She had on delicate makeup that was neither thick nor light, and her walking posture was very elegant and natural, but if one looked carefully, one would find that the designer jewelry on her earlobe was actually fake.

She walked all the way, and many men’s eyes followed her.

Friend: “She’s coming towards us.”

Qin Yue didn’t even raise his eyes, showing no interest.

The woman who came was Zhang Lei, and she was actually very nervous. After all, although she had great ambitions, she had never been in contact with people of Qin Yue’s level. When she finally reached the top floor of Qin Group, she didn’t even see Qin Xing’s face once.

“Excuse me, is this Mr. Qin Yue?” Zhang Lei behaved naturally and confidently, with a smile on her lips.

Only then did Qin Yue raise his head and look at the woman in front of him.

The friend laughed: “Beauty, our Eldest Young Master Qin is not interested in a beauty like you, why don’t you make do by sitting next to me?”

Zhang Lei said with a smile on the corner of her mouth, “I came here specially to find Mr. Qin.”

She had spent a lot of effort to get the news of Qin Yue’s whereabouts.

Qin Yue said indifferently: “What is it?”

Zhang Lei sat down next to Qin Yue unhurriedly, and said softly, “It’s about Su Shiqing. Doesn’t Eldest Young Master Qin want to know where Su Shiqing is now?”

“Oh?” Qin Yue finally took Zhang Lei seriously, “Do you have any news about him?”

Zhang Lei was stared at by Qin Yue’s cold eyes, and her whole body felt cold, stiffening involuntarily, but she tried her best to act as if nothing had happened: “Su Shiqing is now at Mr. Zheng’s house.”

Qin Yue: “Really? How is he doing? “

Zhang Lei said softly: “Mr. Zheng locked him up at home. To be honest, he’s not doing well.”

Qin Yue’s expression was very complicated. On the one hand, he felt that he shouldn’t go to Su Shiqing, because of Su Shiqing, his current life was a mess, and he had recently made up his mind to patch up the relationship between himself and Shen Zhen.

On the other hand, he still wanted to find Su Shiqing. When he heard about Su Shiqing, he still had the urge to see him.

The urge made him restless now.

The friend smiled and said, “Beauty, what’s your relationship with Su Shiqing?”

Zhang Lei smiled shyly: “It’s a relationship that can be considered to be founded on shared woe.”

The friend was still very interested in Zhang Lei: “How about exchanging phone numbers?”

Naturally, Zhang Lei would not refuse. If she couldn’t catch Qin Yue, then it would be the same if she caught another one like him. She already knew that it would be difficult to follow Qin Yue. After all, Qin Yue liked men. She was just thinking that it would be great if Qin Yue swung both ways.

If Qin Yue was purely gay, then she could only find another way out.

Qin Yue suddenly said, “Where is he? I’ll go pick him up.”

His brain was a mess again.

There was joy on Zhang Lei’s face.

Su Shiqing didn’t dare to let Qin Yue know what he was doing during this period, so naturally he wouldn’t tell Qin Yue about the deal between the two of them. Even if she couldn’t become Qin Yue’s mistress, she still did a favor for Su Shiqing. So when the time came to ask for benefits, wouldn’t it be very smooth and natural?

Su Shiqing would not dare to offend her.

The friend was also stunned.

Why did Qin Yue, who had said so convincingly just now that he wanted to bring Shen Zhen back, suddenly changed his mind?

A man’s heart was really like a needle at the bottom of the sea.

He had been friends with Qin Yue for so many years, but he still didn’t know Qin Yue well enough.

Qin Yue stood up. He was tall and muscular, with a serious and handsome face. Zhang Lei’s heart pounded while looking at him. Why did such a man fall in love with someone like Su Shiqing? Her heart was pounding like a running deer, while also feeling deep dislike and jealousy towards Su Shiqing.

If a man like Qin Yue loved her as much as he loved Su Shiqing, she wouldn’t act like a promiscuous sl*t.

“Let’s go.” Qin Yue said to Zhang Lei, his tone was like an order.

Zhang Lei stood up and led Qin Yue out of the nightclub.

The friend had no choice but to follow.

Of course Shen Zhen didn’t know all this, he had no interest in Su Shiqing now, but if Su Shiqing appeared in his field of vision and made him feel uncomfortable, he didn’t mind rolling up his sleeves and teaching Su Shiqing a lesson.

At this time, Shen Zhen was in a meeting.

At the beginning of the month, the documents concerning the construction of a highway and subway had already been issued. Half of the unsure pieces of land he bought before were in the urban planning area, while the other half remained in abandoned areas. In this way, there was still profit to be made, at least twice as much as he spent.

But the unfinished building projects all reaped profit. Recently, many people have approached him, hoping to buy a few pieces of land or unfinished building projects in Shen Zhen’s hands at a more cost-effective price in the early stage.

Shen Zhen couldn’t handle such a big project by himself, so he was thinking about who to cooperate with in the meeting now.

Not only did he have to analyze the profits of the other party’s previous projects, but he also had to analyze the hard power of the other party’s company. After five or six hours in a meeting, Shen Zhen was a little tired, but he still hadn’t made up his mind.

It seemed that there was still work to be done, but he was not in a hurry, and he didn’t think he could make a decision in just a day or two.

Shen Zhen sat on the boss chair, took a sip of tea from the teacup, and sighed a little tiredly.

The assistant walked in from the door and handed over the last quarter’s report to Shen Zhen, and a copy of the online version was also sent to Shen Zhen’s email.

Shen Zhen looked at the female assistant’s unsteady steps, and said, “It’s been too busy recently, you can take a few days off.”

The female assistant quickly said, “It’s not very busy, it’s fine.”

Shen Zhen said, “Don’t push yourself too hard.”

Female assistant: “Not hard, no hard at all.”

She managed to find such a good job. The boss didn’t trouble her much, was handsome, and wouldn’t harass her in the workplace. She went to and from work on time every day, and didn’t work overtime for no reason. Although the work was busy, she was very clear on whether the company had a bright future or not.

For a promising company, it didn’t matter if one suffered a little more in the early stage. For employees, the fear was actually that no matter how much they suffered, they would not see any future prospects.

After getting off work, Shen Zhen took the documents and left the company.

Shen Li also hurriedly followed.

“Elder Brother, I have a driver’s license.” Shen Li smiled ingratiatingly, “So…..how about I drive you back today.”

Riding a heavy motorcycle required an E-license, and Shen Li had been envious of Shen Zhen’s heavy motorcycle for a long time so he took the test.

Shen Zhen didn’t even think about it for a second, and directly refused: “No.”

Shen Li wailed: “Why? Elder Brother, I will cherish her very much, treat her very well, and definitely won’t fall.”

Shen Zhen shook his head: “You go back by car.”

Poor Shen Li had been squeezed by the subway and bus crowds all this time.

He was penniless when he left home, and completely relied on Shen Zhen for relief. Of course, he didn’t have the money to buy a car. His own car was back in the Shen family, but he didn’t dare to go back, and Shen Zhen was unwilling to borrow or buy a car for him. Though his friends sympathized with him, because of the reminders of their families, they dared not give him financial support.

So Shen Li, who lived on wages, now had to squeeze on the bus and subway with his senior in order to save money.

The senior was a slovenly man with stubble on his chin, and he was very casual in his dress, but he was capable, and he was always serious and responsible in his work. Now Shen Li had a good relationship with the senior, and even visited the senior’s house as a guest.

Shen Zhen also found that Shen Li had a good relationship with Zhao Hao recently, but he didn’t care about it. After all, Zhao Hao was indeed a good person. He was willing to teach Shen Li, which was also a good thing for Shen Li.

After all, when Shen Zhen first started the company, Zhao Hao also served as his teacher for a while.

“Brother Zhao seems to be busy with blind dates recently.” Shen Li sighed, “He doesn’t have time to play games with me after getting off work.”

Shen Li couldn’t understand: “Why get married so early?”

Shen Zhen reminded: “Zhao Hao is thirty-two this year.”

Shen Li: “That’s still quite young, look at Mr. Qin, isn’t he not married yet?”

Shen Li began to gossip about Qin Xing in a low voice: “I heard from them that Mr. Qin was hurt by a romantic relationship when he was young, so he made up his mind not to fall in love again.”

“And some people say that Mr. Qin was injured in that place before, so that kind of thing can’t be done.”

Shen Zhen: “…..”

Sure enough, when people were older yet unmarried, no matter whether they were men or women, there were people who liked to slander them behind their backs.

It was either that there was a physical problem, or that there was an emotional problem.

Shen Li pursed his lips and said, “If I had that much money, I wouldn’t get married, I’d just date for the rest of my life.”

Shen Zhen was too lazy to talk to him about this topic, so he just said, “Have you ever had a girlfriend?”

Shen Li snorted: “Countless.”

As he spoke, he took out his phone and showed it to Shen Zhen: “This is my eldest wife, this is my second wife, and this is my third wife.”

“Why date? 2D wives are true love.”

Shen Zhen: “…..So long as you are happy.”

Shen Li nodded: “I’m really happy. Think about it. When you’re dating, you have to go out with your girlfriend, give gifts, and guess her thoughts. 2D wives are great, you just recharge them with 2D money.”

Shen Zhen, who had never played any love app games, couldn’t understand Shen Li. He glanced at the 2D characters Shen Li showed him, and could only say: “She has a good figure.”

Shen Li was happy: “Right, this is my eldest wife. Although she has a bad temper, she has a good figure, good looks, and is very cute.”

Shen Zhen nodded perfunctorily.

Shen Li chattered in his ears all the way, and if it wasn’t for the fact that he was his own younger brother, Shen Zhen really wanted to throw him on the road. After Shen Li hugged his waist and sat on the motorcycle, Shen Zhen could finally let out a sigh of relief.

“Eldest Brother.” Shen Li said when they arrived at their building, “Your road speed really amazes me.”

Shen Zhen: “This is paying attention to trafgic safety.”

Shen Li sighed.

Shen Zhen: “…..”

What are you sighing for? You’re so annoying but I didn’t even sigh!

“Xiao Li!” Someone called out to Shen Li.

Shen Li and Shen Zhen looked back together, and saw Shen Mu who came alone.

They didn’t see Shen Yun.

Shen Li’s gaze and expression were a bit complicated, but he still called out “Third Brother” when Shen Mu approached.

At first, Shen Mu was afraid that Shen Li would pretend not to see him, but now that Shen Li was still willing to call him, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. His brows that had been tightly furrowed loosened, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

“I’m here to see you.” Shen Mu also greeted Shen Zhen, his attitude lowered, and he said very respectfully, “Eldest Brother.”

Because of this, Shen Zhen looked at Shen Mu a second time. Had this person changed his personality? Reached enlightenment?

Shen Mu swallowed: “I have something to tell you.”

It was already seven o’clock in the evening, and Shen Zhen was originally planning to go to the parking lot to leave his bike and take Shen Li to eat——Qin Xing had something to deal with today.

Shen Zhen glanced at Shen Mu, his eyes were cold, without any emotion.

The smile on Shen Mu’s face became a little stiff.

“There’s nothing to talk about between us.” Shen Zhen looked at his watch and said sharply, “I’ll go up first.”

The reason why he was willing to give Shen Li a hand was because Shen Li extended his hand to him when he was in a desperate situation in his previous life.

You c an fi nd t he la te st cha pte rs at ( th e bl mu se . c o m )

Whereas Shen Mu followed closely behind Su Shiqing’s ass in his previous life, wanting nothing more than to kick and step him into the mud.

Shen Mu now was as miserable as he was in his previous life, so Shen Zhen didn’t pay attention to him at all.

Shen Mu hurriedly said: “I know I was wrong, Eldest Brother! Xiao Zhen! Please forgive me! I was blind before, and I didn’t know what I was doing! If I were given another chance to do it all over again, I would definitely not do that!”

The captain of the anti-corruption brigade was surnamed Wei. He had been in his current position since he was in his forties. He was also a capable person.

Captain Wei asked Shen Zhen to tell him about the situation in person so Shen Zhen set off early the next day. Every province had an anti-corruption brigade. Generally speaking, if someone made a report, they would investigate.

You c an fi nd t he la te st cha pte rs at ( th e bl mu se . c o m )

For such a long time, the fact that the police deputy chief had not been dismounted proved that he was really vigilant, or that he was still dedicated to his duties except for this matter related to relatives.

“You said that the police officer under him told you?” Captain Wei was wearing a uniform, was tall and strong, with a mustache, thick eyebrows and big eyes, his whole person giving off an upright aura.

Shen Zhen handed the document containing the information he obtained from the investigation to Captain Wei.

Captain Wei read very carefully, not missing a line of writing.

“There are witnesses and evidence, how can he still suppress it?” Captain Wei felt a little strange.

He had been dealing with these people for more than just a few years, he was also familiar with him, and knew that he had a lot of cases under his belt, otherwise he would not be able to sit in his current position. Yet he had become so unreasonable now?

Didn’t he think that if something went wrong, not only would the other party be unlucky, he would also be dismounted, and his political career would end here?

He was that stupid?

Captain Wei said: “Do you have a copy of the document?”

Shen Zhen nodded: “More than one copy.”

“But you have no evidence to prove that he is indeed involved in this matter.” Captain Wei said, “I will investigate. Until I am sure, you have to keep a low profile and not speak out.”

Shen Zhen: “I know this, but if you investigate for too long, my friend’s case…..”

Captain Wei: “Your friend’s case needs to be postponed for a while. It’s about a big case like corruption. At the time the several crimes would be punished together. You don’t have to be too anxious.”

Having spoken to here, Shen Zhen couldn’t say anything more. Before he left, he said to Captain Wei: “I hope you are as upright as you appear.”

Captain Wei waited for Shen Zhen to leave before stroking his mustache: “The young people nowadays have bigger and bigger tempers.”

“My integrity has always been the same inside and out.”

At this time, Shen Zhen was already on his way to Qin Xing’s company.

It was not the rush hour now, the road was not very congested, so Shen Zhen’s speed was a little faster than usual.

While waiting for the traffic light, Shen Zhen was about to brake when a person suddenly jumped out in front of him.

Shen Zhen stepped on the brakes quickly, relieved that he was still some distance away from the man.

However, what Shen Zhen didn’t expect was that the person who was clearly not hit by him was lying on the ground as if he had been hit. Probably because he realized that he was a little far away from Shen Zhen’s motorcycle, he actually crawled a short distance towards Shen Zhen’s direction.

Shen Zhen who witnessed all this: “…..”

Did he encounter the legendary pengci? (TN: to stage a fake accident to claim for compensation, typically of a pedestrian to voluntarily throw themselves at a traveling vehicle and blackmail the driver for “injury” compensation)

And the dumbest kind?

“Aiyoh!” The man hugged his leg and yelled, “Aiyoh! It hurts so much! Aiyoh…..”

Shen Zhen: “Stop pretending, piss off quickly.”

The man had a beer belly and persisted in rolling on the ground: “Hitting someone to death, hitting someone to death…..”

Shen Zhen reminded: “This is an intersection, there is monitoring.”

The man froze, looked up as expected, then got up resentfully, and gave Shen Zhen a middle finger: “You are lucky.”

Judging by the way this person acted, it was probably the first time he had done this.

Shen Zhen reminded again: “Now there are video recorders installed in cars.”

The back of the man leaving became even stiffer.

After this little interlude, Shen Zhen walked slowly to Qin Group’s building. His work card was not returned, so he could go upstairs without registration.

It was just that when Shen Zhen appeared in the building this time, he keenly noticed that many people seemed to be looking at him.

“Ah, I saw the real person, the real person is more handsome than on TV!”

“Right, right, so very handsome!”

“I wonder if we can go and say hello.”

“Forget it…..”

Shen Zhen found that no matter where he went, someone was watching him all the time. This feeling of being watched made him very uncomfortable. Just when Shen Zhen was puzzled, he finally saw the big screen that was playing the video of him receiving the award, including that embarrassing introduction that made him ashamed. And it was even being repeated on a loop!

“…..”

He understood why so many people had been staring at him now.

“What is that on the screen?” Shen Zhen accused as soon as he entered Qin Xing’s office, “And it’s even on a loop. How many days has it been?”

Just as Qin Xing was about to speak, Shen Zhen said with a red face, “Quickly turn it off.”

Qin Xing hugged Shen Zhen from the front, Shen Zhen relaxed, and put his chin on Qin Xing’s shoulder: “It’s really embarrassing.”

Qin Xing didn’t understand: “Where is so embarrassing? My Xiao Zhen is so amazing, everyone should know.”

Qin Xing was like a dragon with a treasure trove. On the one hand, he wanted to show off his treasure to everyone, and on the other hand, he didn’t want it to be coveted by others. Qin Xing’s feelings were very complicated.

“Xiao Zhen will be even more amazing in the future.” Qin Xing coaxed Shen Zhen like one coaxed a child, and he gently kissed Shen Zhen’s earlobe, “Xiao Zhen can’t not like me then.”

Shen Zhen raised his head in confusion.

Qin Xing just smiled.

He was nearly 20 years older than Shen Zhen. These 20 years were a hurdle that could not be bypassed. Shen Zhen would never know how much he was jealous of Qin Yue. He could grow up together with Shen Zhen, experience the troubles of youth together with Shen Zhen, accompany each other, and be naturally close together.

Every time Qin Xing thought of this, he would want to kill Qin Yue. He suppressed his tyrannical emotions. He hoped that he would be a gentle person in front of Shen Zhen’s eyes and in his heart.

“How are things going?” Qin Xing changed the subject.

Shen Zhen said: “Captain Wei said he will investigate, but Han Lang’a matter has to be postponed.”

Qin Xing nodded: “That’s normal.”

“You don’t have to be so anxious.” Qin Xing still maintained the posture of hugging Shen Zhen.

Shen Zhen: “Probably because I don’t want to see Mama Zhang’s sad expression.”

Qin Xing sighed. While he didn’t want Shen Zhen to be so softhearted, he was also glad that Shen Zhen was so softhearted.

“Let’s go on vacation together at the end of the year.” Qin Xing said, “I have a private island and haven’t been there yet.”

Shen Zhen didn’t know this, he smiled and said, “Can I bring others?”

The smile on the corner of Qin Xing’s mouth gradually froze: “Others?”

Shen Zhen nodded: “Mama Zhang, and of course Han Lang will be with her. And aren’t I cooperating with Yang Changsheng? I can call him too. Do you want to invite others as well?”

Qin Xing: “…..All right.”

As long as Shen Zhen went with him, everyone else could be regarded as air.

At this time, Su Shiqing didn’t have so much leisurely thoughts about vacationing. He had been locked in this room for more than two months, and Mr. Zheng would come to see him every day. At first Su Shiqing thought that Mr. Zheng would force himself on him. After trembling with fear for a long time, he finally realized that Mr. Zheng probably developed a new interest and wanted to make him fall in love with him.

“You are so lucky.” Zhang Lei sighed, “I heard that there are still many people looking for you outside.”

Su Shiqing’s eyes widened, and he quickly begged, “Are Ah Yue and Hao Yi looking for me? Zhang Lei, I beg you, please help me. It’s been so long, and your anger should have calmed down now. As long as you help me this time, I can help you with anything you want.”

Zhang Lei asked playfully: “Really?”

Su Shiqing couldn’t stop nodding.

Zhang Lei played with her long hair and said with a smile: “Well, if you can let me follow Qin Yue, I will help you this time.”

Su Shiqing was stunned: “…..Follow Qin Yue?”

Zhang Lei shrugged: “Exactly as you understand it. I won’t be with surnamed Zheng forever. He can’t give me anything except a little money, and that money can’t even buy a few luxury goods. Qin Yue is different. He now has his own company, so even if he doesn’t inherit the Qin family in the future, he will still have endless money to spend.”

Su Shiqing swallowed: “Do you want to marry Ah Yue?”

Zhang Lei looked at him strangely: “Why should I marry him? It’s not easy to be a wife of the wealthy. I’m not like you. I know how much I am worth. I’ll be satisfied to just be Qin Yue’s mistress.”

“Su Shiqing.” Zhang Lei said, “You are really strange. It stands to reason that people like us all want to pursue a better life, but why do you look like you are tired of living a good life?”

“I’ve also heard about you from surnamed Zheng.” Zhang Lei really didn’t understand Su Shiqing, “Chu Haoyi is the heir of the Chu family, and he treats you so well. You won’t suffer any hardships by his side, and you can get whatever you want. He is also so loyal and doesn’t play around, such a man can’t be found even with a lantern, yet you still tried to hook up with surnamed Zheng, why?”

“How can surnamed Zheng compare with Qin Yue and Chu Haoyi?”

Zhang Lei had an expression of “Are you crazy?”: “If I were you, I would hold on to Qin Yue and never let go.”

Su Shiqing had tears in his eyes: “You don’t understand, what I want is not money and status, I just hope that Ah Yue could suffer less and get what he deserves, and for this I can give everything.”

Zhang Lei had a look of shock: “Give everything means that you are going to seduce Qin Yue’s uncle for Qin Yue’s sake? And by the way, also seduce surnamed Zheng. Su Shiqing, you are really a person with brain problems.”

Su Shiqing looked at Zhang Lei with a sorrowful expression: “You don’t understand, if you love someone deeply like me, you would know that in front of love, everyone is small and insignificant, I don’t expect everyone to understand me, even if people don’t understand, I will still stick to what I think is right.”

“You’re not afraid that after Qin Yue finds out…..” Zhang Lei really couldn’t understand.

Su Shiqing sighed: “I don’t care.”

“As long as Ah Yue lives well, I think that’s enough.”

Zhang Lei was speechless. From a certain point of view, Su Shiqing could be considered quite amazing. He lived in his own world, believing he did things “for the good of others”, but actually he was just seeking benefits for himself. He simply just needed a more grandiose and noble excuse.

“Since you are willing to do anything for Qin Yue.” Zhang Lei said, “Then I’ll help you out, and you let me become Qin Yue’s mistress. This request isn’t too much, right?”

There was pity in Su Shiqing’s eyes: “I can’t guarantee that Ah Yue would touch you, nor can I guarantee that Ah Yue would love you.”

Zhang Lei smiled and said, “You don’t need to worry about that.”

Probably because Zhang Lei was too confident, Su Shiqing began to hesitate.

Zhang Lei asked impatiently, “What do you say?”

You c an fi nd t he la te st cha pte rs at ( th e bl mu se . c o m )

Su Shiqing thought of Mr. Zheng’s face and the disgusting words of love he liked to say to him, and he could only nod first.

“Good.”

Zhang Lei smiled.

Thinking to herself: There would always be a day when you would regret it.

But when that day came, it would be too late.

For Lin Manman, the existence of Sun Yun was like a nightmare. Before they dated, Sun Yun was considerate and sincere, but when they actually began dating, his true nature was exposed. She was not allowed to wear shorts and short sleeves, and she was not allowed to go out with other people, even girls, and if she even said hello to male classmates or friends on the way to classes he would become angry.

Sun Yun felt that after dating, Lin Manman was his property.

This annoyed Lin Manman very much, and she mentioned breaking up countless times, but Sun Yun continued to do as he liked as if he couldn’t hear her at all.

You c an fi nd t he la te st cha pte rs at ( th e bl mu se . c o m )

So Lin Manman could only avoid him.

Now standing in front of Han Lang’s hospital bed, Lin Manman looked at the marks on Han Lang’s face that hadn’t faded yet, and she was filled with guilt.

Mama Zhang brought her tea. Lin Manman took the teacup, and whispered, “Thank you, Auntie.”

Mama Zhang shook her head: “You’re welcome, Xiao Lang has been here for so long, but you are the first classmate who came to see him.”

Lin Manman lowered her eyes, the incident happened because of her, but she didn’t even have the courage to take responsibility?

“Auntie, Han Lang encountered this kind of thing…..because of me.” Lin Manman took a deep breath, feeling that no matter how angry Aunt Zhang would be, she had to bear the anger, which she should bear.

After telling the cause and effect, Lin Manman lowered his head, waiting for Mama Zhang to lose her temper.

But the expected scolding didn’t come, what was waiting was Mama Zhang’s gentle voice: “It’s not your fault, you didn’t know that he is such a person.”

“I have experience.” Mama Zhang said, “I know too.”

Before she got married, she and her husband had also dated out of love. Before they got married, her husband was also very considerate, and there was nothing wrong with him. No matter how busy he was at work, he would cook for her after coming home. But after they got married, he became another person, lazy, addicted to gambling, and violent. Even though she was already pregnant with a child at that time, she filed for divorce in court, but her husband wouldn’t agree to it.

After a few years of lawsuits and a few years of separation, the court would not hand down the judgment so long as her husband did not let go.

She was exhausted physically and mentally. After giving birth to her child, she had to go out to work in order to provide her child with a better future.

Fortunately, a fellow native from her hometown was a kind person who had been helping her all the time. It was also because of them she got the opportunity to work as a nanny in the Qin family.

Some men, before they get married, could always put on a very good pretense, so good that one couldn’t find any flaws. But after they get married, they believe that the woman couldn’t escape, so they show their true colors and reveal all kinds of ugly sides.

When Mama Zhang wanted to divorce, her father-in-law and mother-in-law persuaded her, her own parents also persuaded her, and even various relatives and friends came to persuade her to give uo on divorce.

Men, it was normal for them to have bad habits. After all, they had a child now, and when he got older and calmed down, everything would get better.

But Mama Zhang had already despaired of her husband.

He had no sense of responsibility, was selfish, and didn’t care about his wife, son, or family.

He cared more about his luck at today’s poker game, and more about how much money he could take from Mama Zhang’s hands.

This marriage was Mama Zhang’s nightmare. If there was any sweet part, it was the birth of Han Lang.

Mama Zhang once said to Shen Zhen: “I don’t regret marrying him, because I gave birth to Xiao Lang.”

Xiao Lang was a gift from heaven to her, the only shining spot that her failed marriage left her.

Lin Manman was suddenly given understanding, and her eyes became a little red. She choked up and said, “Auntie, I will come and take care of Han Lang with you in the future.”

“You still have to go to school.” Mama Zhang waved her hand, “Auntie will be very grateful if you could visit him when you are free.”

“En…..”

“Xiao Lang!”

“Han Lang!”

Han Lang, who was still in a daze when he opened his eyes, looked at his mother and Lin Manman who were guarding at his bedside, with a dazed expression: “Mom, Lin Manman, where is this?”

Mama Zhang wiped away her tears: “This is the hospital.”

Han Lang was taken aback: “I’m hospitalized?”

Lin Manman ran to the corridor and called the doctor to come in for an examination.

“It’s nothing serious.” The doctor said, “After two more days of observation, you can take him home to recuperate. During this time, pay attention to diet, and the state of excretion and urination.”

Han Lang who just woke up was flushed with embarrassment.

Mama Zhang kept saying thank you gratefully.

The doctor said gently: “It’s nothing, it’s our duty.”

“Han Lang, do you still remember what happened before you fell into a coma?” Lin Manman asked softly, fearing to stimulate Han Lang’s emotions.

Han Lang just woke up and was still a little confused. He sat on the bed and thought for a while before saying: “I came out of the library, I was going to go back to the dormitory to put away my things and go home, and then someone beat me on the back of the head. I just remember that I fell to the ground and someone continued to hit me, I don’t know the rest.”

He didn’t see anything, but Han Lang said: “I seem to have heard someone talking, but it’s not a familiar person.”

Lin Manman sat next to Han Lang, saying with a bitter tone: “It was Sun Yun’s hand.”

When Han Lang heard this, there was no expression on his face, he was not surprised. After all, although he was a loner, he had never offended anyone. If he had to say that he had offended anyone, it would only be Sun Yun.

“I’m the one who got you involved.” Lin Manman lowered her head, not daring to look at Han Lang’s expression.

Although Mama Zhang didn’t blame her, it didn’t mean that Han Lang would forgive her.

Han Lang smiled at Lin Manman: “Then you can’t give up on your part in the game project afterwards.”

Lin Manman was taken aback. Then she fell on the bed and began to cry.

At this moment, the door of the ward was pushed open. Han Lang looked up and saw Shen Zhen stepping in from the door. Shen Zhen was wearing a set of casual clothes. The temperature gradually rose after the beginning of spring. If it was not a formal occasion, he didn’t even wear suits anymore.

This made Shen Zhen look younger, almost like a college student who had not yet entered society.

“You’re awake?” Shen Zhen walked towards Han Lang, “Is your body still hurting? I brought you some consolation.”

He carried fruit and milk powder.

Mama Zhang took these things from Shen Zhen’s hand, smiled and said to Han Lang: “Your Brother Shen has been busy with your affairs these days, and when you get well, you must thank him well.”

Han Lang looked at Shen Zhen.

He couldn’t look away.

“It’s good you’re awake.” Shen Zhen said, “You don’t have to think about anything else, it’s all handled by the police now, and I will definitely help you get justice.”

Only then did Han Lang come back to his senses, saying with a bit of difficulty: “Brother Shen…..I’ve troubled you.”

Shen Zhen: “I’m fine, but Mama Zhang hasn’t eaten well these days, and she hasn’t slept much either”

Mama Zhang seemed a little embarrassed, and quickly said: “I am your mother, this is what I should do.”

Han Lang held Mama Zhang’s hands. These hands were calloused but warm, and the corners of Han Lang’s eyes were moist: “Mom, I made you worry.”

Mama Zhang was even more flustered: “It’s nothing, it’s nothing.”

The ringtone rang, and Shen Zhen took out his mobile phone: “I’ll answer the call first.”

He walked into the safety passage of the hospital. There was no one here, and the name of Officer Li was on the caller ID.

“Officer Li, do you have any clues?” Shen Zhen asked.

Officer Li said in a low voice, “There are clues, but our deputy director told us not to investigate any further.”

Shen Zhen frowned: “What does this mean?”

Officer Li also seemed very angry: “Our deputy chief is Sun Changyang’s brother-in-law.”

Shen Zhen: “So that’s it.”

Officer Li sighed: “Mr. Shen, if you have connections on your side, you can have our chief speak out. But I am just a little policeman without any speaking power, and no one will listen to me.”

“You don’t need to worry about this.” Shen Zhen’s eyes became slightly cold, “Just continue to investigate, and leave everything else to me.”

Officer Li hesitated: “This…..”

Shen Zhen said, “Officer Li, I believe in you.”

“Ai.” Officer Li sighed, “I understand.”

Shen Zhen could feel that this Officer Li was a person with a sense of justice, and his edges hadn’t been blunted by society. Otherwise, he wouldn’t even make this call after his superiors already spoke, but would just do nothing, like Zhao Mingxian who just brushed him off with excuses.

Deputy chief?

Shen Zhen thought about it, what was the name of the captain of the anti-corruption brigade?

Shen Zhen called Qin Xing.

“Xiao Zhen?” The phone was connected quickly, and Qin Xing’s gentle and deep voice came from the other side of the line, “What, miss me?”

When Shen Zhen heard Qin Xing’s voice, his expression softened involuntarily, the corners of his mouth did not press down as before, and his tone became much calmer: “Do you have the number of the captain of the anti-corruption brigade?”

In terms of contacts, Qin Xing had a wider network of connections.

Qin Xing: “What’s wrong?”

Shen Zhen briefly explained the matter, and Qin Xing chuckled and said, “I was wondering why you were so busy recently? I’ll have Xiao Ma give you his contact information, you don’t need my help?”

Shen Zhen felt refreshed when he heard Qin Xing’s words: “No need, in fact, all the evidence has been found, I just need to pay a greeting.”

“Okay then.” Qin Xing’s tone seemed a bit regretful, “When will you be free?”

Shen Zhen said soothingly, “I’ll come to you tomorrow.”

Qin Xing’s tone instantly became serious: “Alright.”

Shen Zhen was amused: “Wait for me.”

Qin Xing’s tone was gentle and lingering, like honey on the tip of the tongue.

“I’ve always been waiting.”

When Shen Zhen hung up the phone, his skin was covered with goosebumps. When the older man became sappy, it was no less than a young man.

In Qin Xing’s office, Assistant Ma looked at Qin Xing’s smile after answering the phone, and forcibly stopped the urge to shiver. Now he wondered more and more whether he needed to cultivate his relationship with his wife again.

After getting off work, Assistant Ma went to the flower shop to buy a bouquet of roses.

Assistant Ma’s wife was a little confused when she received the flowers. Looking at Assistant Ma’s face, she asked strangely, “Did you do something that you need to apologize to me for?”

Assistant Ma: “…..”

The wife put the flowers in the vase on the table, and squinted at Assistant Ma: “You really didn’t do anything?”

Assistant Ma’s self-esteem was hit hard.

Afterwards, Assistant Ma, who bought the bouquet of flowers in vain, sat on the sofa in a daze. It seemed that romance was something not everyone could play. If you met someone who didn’t understand romance, then any romantic gesture became meaningless.

“Come over for dinner.” The wife called from the dining room.

Assistant Ma put down the remote control of the TV and walked to the dining room. He was stunned by the scene in front of him.

“So fancy?”

You c an fi nd t he la te st cha pte rs at ( th e bl mu se . c o m )

The wife stood on the side. She had already changed into a dress and put on light makeup when he wasn’t paying attention. She smiled at her husband and said, “Let’s eat.”

Assistant Ma, who had never enjoyed this kind of treatment after married life, was now full of admiration for his boss.

Sure enough, the ginger was spicy when it was old (TN: the older the wiser).

Chu Haoyi was fighting with Feng Anyan when he got news about Su Shiqing

Chu Haoyi was panting heavily, already exhausted, but Feng Anyan was like a cat catching a mouse with ease. Seeing Chu Haoyi so angry, Feng Anyan said carelessly: “Ai, I say, if you have the time to find Su Shiqing, why not just come with me to have a few more meals and watch a few movies.”

“The few films that our company has released recently are all quite good.” Feng Anyan grabbed Chu Haoyi’s fist, and shamelessly leaned forward to kiss it.

You c an fi nd t he la te st cha pte rs at ( th e bl mu se . c o m )

Chu Haoyi wanted to retract his fist, but he couldn’t move because of Feng Anyan’s strength.

Feng Anyan sighed and said, “Why are you so stubborn? Does that Su Shiqing have a good figure and kung fu like me, or can he please you like me?”

Chu Haoyi was so angry that he couldn’t speak, the degree of shamelessness of this person was really amazing.

“Feng Anyan!” Chu Haoyi growled almost syllable by syllable, “I have no interest in you at all!”

Feng Anyan: “Hey, how can you say that? One day of married life breeds days of enduring affections, you wouldn’t be so heartless, would you?”

Chu Haoyi really didn’t want to think about what happened that night. Although he ran away at the last moment, thinking about what they did before made him sick. He never wanted to see Feng Anyan’s face again in this life.

But the sad thing was, Feng Anyan seemed to be interested, and had been pestering him by his side all this time, no matter what he said.

If he gave the cold treatment, this person could carry a conversation just by himself.

If he opened his mouth to scold, he would be even more enthusiastic.

Beat him up? Chu Haoyi couldn’t beat him, and seeing Feng Anyan’s gleeful look made him even angrier.

“Mr. Feng, apart from pestering me every day, don’t you have anything serious to do?” Chu Haoyi said, holding back his anger.

Feng Anyan: “It’s my serious business to pester you.”

The veins on Chu Haoyi’s forehead throbbed: “Don’t need to deal with the company’s affairs?”

Feng Anyan: “I hired so many people and spent so much on their salaries, yet I still need to keep an eye on them all the time?”

Just as Chu Haoyi was about to speak, Feng Anyan suddenly said, “I can tell you about Su Shiqing’s whereabouts, but I have one condition.”

Chu Haoyi was stunned for a moment, and an ecstatic expression appeared on his face: “You know where Shi Qing is? How is he doing now? Did he suffer? He didn’t get hurt, did he?”

Feng Anyan: “Let me say it first, I have a condition.”

Chu Haoyi frowned: “What condition?”

Feng Anyan: “Sleep with me for one night.”

Chu Haoyi said almost instantly: “Impossible!”

Feng Anyan sighed exaggeratedly: “It seems that your feelings for Su Shiqing are just so-so.”

Chu Haoyi didn’t speak.

Feng Anyan: “Are you angry?”

Chu Haoyi swung his fist, only for Feng Anyan to grab his fist again. He said with a low chuckle: “I won’t kid you anymore, the condition is that you can’t refuse my pursuit, how about it? You can accept this condition, right?”

Chu Haoyi sneered and said, “If your pursuit is to harass me all the time, then thanks but no thanks.”

Feng Anyan: “Why do you say that? You don’t want to know how Su Shiqing is doing?”

“I will find out myself.” Chu Haoyi said indifferently.

Feng Anyan shrugged: “That’s fine, since you have this confidence, then I’ll mind my own business.”

At this time, Chu Haoyi thought that it was only a matter of time before he could find Su Shiqing with his own connections and those of the Chu family, and there was also Qin Yue who was also looking for him, so it was impossible that he could not get any clues.

What he didn’t know was that Qin Yue’s mind wasn’t on Su Shiqing at this moment.

Shen Zhen looked at Qin Yue standing in front of him, wondering why he could still stand in front of him as if nothing had happened.

“What is it?” Shen Zhen got out of the car and stood at the gate of Han Lang’s school.

This was the only time Qin Yue could be alone with Shen Zhen.

Qin Yue felt that everything was different after he came back from abroad. Shen Zhen became a young entrepreneur and had his own company. He was so busy every day that he barely had time to rest. No longer was he like before, always looking for him whenever he had a question.

The closeness of their relationship was replaced by a strange kind of estrangement.

Clearly they knew each other better than anyone else, but now they were not even acquaintances who could occasionally say hello to each other.

Qin Yue looked at Shen Zhen in front of him, and asked with complicated feelings: “How have you been recently?”

Shen Zhen had made an appointment with Han Lang’s counselor, and it was half an hour before the appointed time. He looked at Qin Yue expressionlessly: “Did you come to me just to ask this question? I’m doing very well now.”

“Can we find a place with few people to have a talk?” Qin Yue softened his attitude.

Shen Zhen looked at his watch: “We have nothing to talk about. If you are here for Su Shiqing’s business, then I can only tell you that I am not interested in him. I don’t know where he is now or how he is doing.”

“I didn’t come to you because of Shi Qing.” Qin Yue said immediately, and he sighed, “Ah Zhen, don’t be so contrary to me.”

Shen Zhen: “I am not being contrary, I just don’t want to see you.”

Qin Yue: “I know you’re angry about Shi Qing and I, but I haven’t contacted him for a long time, Ah Zhen, haven’t you finished being angry yet?”

Shen Zhen felt a little powerless: “What am I angry about?”

Qin Yue took a step forward: “Angry that I got closer to Shi Qing.”

Shen Zhen: “Why should I be angry about this?”

Shen Zhen’s gaze was indifferent: “Qin Yue, do you think that I have deep feelings for you and I can’t live without you?”

Qin Yue stood where he was, looking at Shen Zhen seriously.

Shen Zhen: “We were just playmates who grew up together. If there was any relationship, it was just pure friendship, and this friendship was also thrown away by you.”

“Since you have already made a choice, then don’t regret it.” Shen Zhen, “Don’t block the road.”

Qin Yue could only turn sideways to let Shen Zhen walk over. He stood behind Shen Zhen with a bitter expression on his face. He recently looked back on everything before, and he didn’t know why he did such a stupid thing.

He and Shen Zhen grew up together. Although they were not blood brothers, they were better than blood brothers. Before Su Shiqing appeared, there was even a faint ambiguity between them.

He still remembered that when he was studying at school, whenever he wanted to skip class, as long as he sent a message to Shen Zhen, Shen Zhen would come out to find him.

At that time, he felt that even if the whole world would leave him, Shen Zhen would not.

Now when he thought of Su Shiqing, for some reason, he clearly felt that he still loved him, yet he also felt a strange sense of disgust.

He wanted to see Su Shiqing, but he also didn’t want to.

This conflicted feeling was driving him crazy.

Perhaps, he really needed time to sort out his thoughts and figure out what he wanted.

Han Lang’s counselor was named Zhao Mingxian. He was not a tall man, about 1.7 meters tall. He was thin and had a long face and when he looked at people it gave one a wretched feeling. When he saw Shen Zhen he said enthusiastically: “You are Han Lang’s brother, right?”

Shen Zhen sat on the chair opposite Zhao Mingxian and shook hands with him: “That’s right, I want to see the video captured by the surveillance camera.”

Zhao Mingxian smiled: “I have already told Han Lang’s mother that the camera was an aging and damaged camera. It had been damaged for a long time, and no videos were taken.”

Shen Zhen nodded, seemingly not wanting to delve into it. Zhao Mingxian let out a relieved sigh subtly.

He also found it troublesome. When this kind of thing happened, the school director would only order him, a little counselor, to solve it.

“Even if the camera is damaged, the memory card should still be there, right?” Shen Zhen said, “I won’t make things difficult for you, just give me the memory card.”

Zhao Mingxian was taken aback: “Memory card?”

Shen Zhen nodded.

Zhao Mingxian smiled with difficulty: “I don’t know, I have to ask, but the camera is already broken, so there should be no memory card, right?”

Shen Zhen sighed: “Counselor, are you sure?”

Zhao Mingxian was taken aback by Shen Zhen’s serious expression: “I’ll ask, I’ll ask right away.”

He pretended to pick up the phone and dialed the number: “Old Wu, it’s the camera in the alley next to the school garden. Where is the memory card?”

Shen Zhen stood up suddenly, grabbed Zhao Mingxian’s cell phone, and pressed the speaker.

An old man’s voice came from the phone: “It’s in the camera.”

Shen Zhen looked at Zhao Mingxian.

He noticed the last time he came to school that the camera there was replaced with a new one.

The other party had probably destroyed the camera, and whether the memory card still existed or not was a problem.

After hanging up the call, Shen Zhen asked Zhao Mingxian, “Where’s the camera?”

Zhao Mingxian swallowed: “Because it’s broken, it must have been thrown away.”

Shen Zhen nodded: “Counselor Zhao.”

Zhao Mingxian: “Huh?”

Shen Zhen: “You are also engaged in the education industry. Although you are not a teacher, you should also have professional ethics.”

Zhao Mingxian looked angry: “What do you mean?! You mean that I deliberately harmed Han Lang?”

Shen Zhen sneered: “I didn’t say that.”

“But I still have something to remind you, some things can be done, some things can’t be done, don’t regret it when you pay the price.”

Zhao Mingxian forced himself to be calm: “Are you threatening me?”

Shen Zhen did not deny it: “If I give you such a feeling, then you feel right, I am indeed threatening you.”

Zhao Mingxian: “I…..”

Shen Zhen gave Zhao Mingxian a cold look, and Zhao Mingxian was suddenly unable to speak a word.

Until Shen Zhen left, Zhao Mingxian was still sitting frozen on the chair. He reached out and touched his forehead, it was covered in cold sweat.

What was the background of Han Lang’s brother?

Should he alert the school director Sun Changyang? If anything happens…..

Zhao Mingxian shuddered, he had really met with eight lifetimes of bad luck, that this kind of thing happened in the class he was charge of.

After leaving the office, Shen Zhen took out his mobile phone and called Officer Li who had been in contact with him during this whole time.

“The camera at the scene has been destroyed by them.” Shen Zhen said, “But the nearby cameras have not yet.”

Officer Li said righteously at the other end: “Don’t worry, Mr. Shen, our duty is to fight crime. As long as the nearby cameras record it, we will definitely have evidence.”

You c an fi nd t he la te st cha pte rs at ( th e bl mu se . c o m )

Shen Zhen: “Thank you for the hard work.”

Officer Li chuckled and said, “It’s no problem, instead I should thank Mr. Shen for cooperating.”

Shen Zhen: “Okay.”

Han Lang suffered such a serious injury, Sun Yun should pay the same price, that was only fair.

After the awards ceremony, Shen Zhen exchanged pleasantries with the people who received the awards together. Most of these people came from the bottom and worked their way up. The heirs of big families usually inherit their father’s business. Few of them would come to receive such awards, unless it was nationwide.

So this time when Shen Zhen came to participate in the award ceremony, the program team was also very surprised.

When Shen Zhen and Qin Xing stepped out of the TV station, there were still people behind them who kept passing over their business cards.

You c an fi nd t he la te st cha pte rs at ( th e bl mu se . c o m )

“This is probably the last time I will participate in an award ceremony.” Shen Zhen whispered, “I don’t know who wrote the award speech, they are too talented.”

Qin Xing laughed softly: “They have a template, it’s fixed.”

Shen Zhen asked strangely: “Have you attended an award ceremony before?”

Qin Xing’s expression became a bit weird, the past was truly not worth looking back on. It was when he was in his early twenties. After all, it was nationwide, and he really couldn’t refuse. Qin Xing bowed his head and said in Shen Zhen’s ear, “Let’s go eat first.”

When mentioning eating, Shen Zhen was indeed a little hungry. After all, he hadn’t eaten much all day, and now he finally felt hungry.

“I’ve already made a reservation at the restaurant.” Qin Xing opened the car door, and Shen Zhen automatically sat in. It was only then he realized it, and thanked Qin Xing.

Qin Xing had already sat beside Shen Zhen. He gently rubbed Shen Zhen’s hair, his eyes gentle: “There is no need for thanks between us.”

 Shen Zhen: “…..”

Why didn’t he notice that this person was so good at flirtatious remarks before?

The driver was sitting in front, and curled his lips involuntarily, ai, the life of a single dog was not easy.

The reserved restaurant was the most high-end gourmet restaurant in the city. The taste was top-notch and the price was also high, and it only accepted reservations. Their table was on the top floor of the tallest building in the city. The floor was made of thickened tempered glass. From the outside, this restaurant looked to be suspended in mid-air, and it had the reputation of a restaurant in the sky, but this also repelled many people who were afraid of heights.

The decoration of the lobby was by a world-renowned designer. It adopted a minimalist futuristic style, but there was not much metal used. The whole restaurant was clean and generous. As soon as Shen Zhen entered, he knew that this was definitely Qin Xing’s favorite restaurant. There was no other reason——it looked very clean.

The waiters wore white uniforms with no stains on them.

There was a smile on their faces, and they would bow 30 degrees politely when guests came in.

Both male and female, their looks were all very pleasant, and their manners and behavior could also be called elegant.

Someone was playing classical music in the hall, the tune melodious. The well dressed guests sat in their seats, and the aroma of food wafted in the air.

“Mr. Qin.” The waitress led the way with a smile on her face.

This was a high-end Chinese restaurant, and each dish was only a little amount, but the presentation was so beautiful that when Shen Zhen began to eat, he kept feeling that he could eat hundreds of servings just by himself——though it turned out that he couldn’t eat that much.

Qin Xing watched Shen Zhen put down his chopsticks: “Are you full?”

Shen Zhen nodded: “I’m full.”

“Shall I take you back?” Qin Xing asked.

Just as Shen Zhen was about to answer, Qin Xing asked again, “Or go to Qin manor?”

Qin Xing smiled, his eyes full of affection, and there seemed to be thousands of thoughts in his eyes.

Shen Zhen: “…..I have something to do tomorrow, so I’d better go home tonight.”

Qin Xing’s smile remained: “I’ll take you back.”

When the car drove to the building where Shen Zhen lived and Shen Zhen was about to step out, Qin Xing suddenly reached out and hugged him from behind, and Shen Zhen was enveloped into Qin Xing’s embrace just like that. Qin Xing asked: “Did you forget something?”

Shen Zhen’s mind went blank: “Forget…..forget what?”

When Qin Xing spoke, his hot and humid breath blew lightly at his skin. He said softly, “Goodbye kiss.”

Shen Zhen: “…..”

Where did this person learn such old fashioned sweet talk?

Shen Zhen had goosebumps.

Forced to have no choice but to turn his head, Shen Zhen bit the bullet and kissed Qin Xing’s face.

Just when Shen Zhen made contact, Qin Xing suddenly turned his head, and the lips of the two touched instead. Shen Zhen’s eyes widened, but he didn’t pull away immediately. Qin Xing lightly bit Shen Zhen’s upper lip before releasing him.

“Go.” Qin Xing said with a smile.

Shen Zhen got out of the car in a daze, stayed in place and watched the car start before leaving his sight.

After a few minutes, he shook his head and walked into the building.

Turning on the lights, he saw that Mama Zhang hadn’t come back yet, so Shen Zhen called Mama Zhang.

“Is he awake yet?” Shen Zhen asked.

Mama Zhang’s mood became much more stable: “Not yet, but the doctor said there shouldn’t be any problem.”

Shen Zhen: “That’s good. Don’t push yourself too hard. You haven’t slept well these days, right? Ask a nurse to help you look after him, so you can have a good sleep.”

Mama Zhang: “I don’t feel tired, I’m fine.”

That was her own son, conceived in her womb, slowly growing up from a small embryo to have hands and feet. Every movement of the fetus, every pain the mother suffered, was like experiencing the miracle of life with the child.

After hanging up the phone, Shen Zhen sat on the sofa. He thought of his mother. He hadn’t seen her for such a long time that he nearly forgot there was even such a person.

In his last life until the end, he never saw her.

Sometimes Shen Zhen wondered, were they really mother and son?

Children always have such hopes about their mother.

Shen Zhen washed his face and looked at himself in the mirror. Did he resemble her in any way?

Was it the shape of the face or the eyes, the nose or the lips?

When he was suffering, did she feel distress?

Just when Shen Zhen was about to go to bed, there was a knock on the door, and Shen Li’s voice came from outside the door: “Elder Brother, Elder Brother! Open the door! Are you at home?!”

Shen Li’s voice was very urgent, as if he had encountered some important event that could not be resolved.

Shen Zhen went to open the door on bare feet. The moment he opened the door, Shen Li rushed in from the door and threw himself into Shen Zhen’s arms.

Shen Zhen was caught off guard, looking in exaspereation at Shen Li in his arms. His hands had nowhere to rest, he could only hang them in the air: “What’s wrong? What happened?”

Shen Li’s face was red: “Second Brother, he ran to the Chu’s to make trouble and was beaten out.”

Shen Zhen: “And then?”

Shen Li was at a loss: “After being beaten out, he was hit by a car.”

This person’s luck…..he really didn’t know whether to say good or bad.

Shen Li: “I called Dad. Dad said that he wanted to have him learn a good lesson and didn’t send anyone over. Second Brother also refused to go to the hospital. Said it was embarrassing.”

Shen Zhen: “Where is he now?”

Shen Li: “I opened a hotel for them, and they are staying in the hotel now.”

Shen Zhen sighed: “You come to me, but what can I do?”

Shen Li was taken aback, oh, that’s right.

Shen Li turned his head and said, “Do you know where Su Shiqing is? If it weren’t for him, would Second Brother have become so illogical? He must take responsibility for Second Brother!”

“I don’t know where he is.” Shen Zhen said honestly, “Isn’t he at the Chu’s?”

Shen Li: “I heard that Chu Haoyi has gone crazy looking for him recently, and so has Qin Yue, but I don’t know if he has been found or not.”

Shen Zhen was a little sleepy: “Go back first, I’m going to rest.”

Shen Li suddenly whispered: “Eldest Brother, do you hate Dad and us very much?”

During this period of time, Shen Li had been thinking about this question. He knew from a very young age that he had an elder brother named Shen Zhen, but this elder brother was not in the Shen family. His father told them that their elder brother was now in the Qin family.

At that time, Shen Li thought that his elder brother was an amazing person. After all, although he was young at that time, he knew the status of the Qin family.

But his other two brothers didn’t think so.

They told Shen Li that although Shen Zhen was their eldest brother, it was only a blood relationship, they had no feelings for each other, and Shen Zhen would only rob them of their family property.

Teenagers with second year junior high syndrome hated this kind of thing the most.

Shen Li’s impression of his eldest brother Shen Zhen also became extremely bad.

He had never lived at home and made no contribution to the Shen family, so why should he come back and snatch away what belonged to them?

For a long time, Shen Zhen was Shen Li’s imaginary enemy.

But now, when Shen Li looked at Shen Zhen, he no longer thought about it that way. He felt that Eldest Bother was more reliable than his other two older brothers. After he left the Shen family, only this elder brother helped him, unlike Shen Yun and Shen Mu who not only didn’t care about him, but also criticized him all the time, as if it was something heinous that he didn’t like Su Shiqing.

Shen Li’s world was very simple, people who treated him well were good people, and those who treated him badly were bad people.

It was because of this simplicity that Shen Zhen had a good impression of him.

Although the child was a but noisy and annoying, he at least would not stir up trouble for no good reason.

“Eldest Brother.” Shen Li said hesitantly, “What do you think of my performance in the company recently?”

Shen Zhen let out a yawn: “Not bad.” Going to and from work on time, and although his work progress was only one-third of others, but as an intern, one couldn’t ask for too high a standard. After all, Shen Li was also a child who had never done any work since childhood. He was just a young master who pursued being a rice bug in life.

Shen Li quickly said: “Then how about you make me a regular employee? The current salary is too low!”

Shen Zhen: “What did the senior who mentors you say?”

Shen Li: “…..”

Senior’s demands on him have increased recently, and the compliments couldn’t be heard anymore, instead he went back to furiously dissing him every day.

Dissing him to the point of losing all love for life.

In the hotel room at this time, Shen Yun was lying on the bed, breathing unsteadily, and said with difficulty: “It must be Chu Haoyi…..who hid Shi Qing away.”

Shen Mu offered Shen Yun a glass of water at the side: “Brother, you should go to the hospital.”

Shen Yun flatly refused: “No, I can’t go, so many people are waiting to see my humiliation, how would I have any face left if I go.”

Shen Mu couldn’t understand. He sat on the side and felt that Shen Yun’s madness was a bit too much. If the car didn’t brake in time, Shen Yun could only go to see the lord of the underworld now.

He still remembered Shen Yun’s crazy look at that time, like a drug addict in a fit.

You c an fi nd t he la te st cha pte rs at ( th e bl mu se . c o m )

Could it be…..that he was also like that before?

Shen Mu suddenly became a little scared. Could it be that he and Shen Yun looked like two lunatics before?

Seeing Shen Yun who was still scolding the Chu family, Shen Mu swallowed, he kind of wanted to go home now.

Life outside was really not easy.

In the teaching building, the girls were whispering.

“Did you see that handsome guy at the door when you came in?”

“God, he’s really handsome! He’s tall, with long legs, not to mention that face. I really want to strike up a conversation, but I didn’t dare.”

“Have you seen the watch he was wearing? I have seen the brand, but I haven’t seen that model. It must be custom-made. The cheapest basic model of that company is at least 200,000 yuan. High-end luxury brand, I am convinced.”

You c an fi nd t he la te st cha pte rs at ( th e bl mu se . c o m )

“Looks and money, damn, if I was more beautiful, I would definitely ask for a phone number.”

“I wonder whose boyfriend he is, either way I haven’t seen him in school before.”

“I know, I know, just now I heard him asking where Lin Manman’s class is.”

“Lin Manman, the name sounds familiar.”

“You don’t know the most popular girl in the sophomore year, the goddess of all geeks? She’s even a rich second generation.”

“Ai, I thought so, rich people are only friends with rich people, ai.”

“But I think Lin Manman is just average.”

“Lin Manman is still average? I think she is quite pretty.”

When Shen Zhen found Lin Manman, Lin Manman was just finished with class. She had long black hair like a waterfall, wore simple and elegant clothes, and light makeup on her face. Among girls, she was quite outstanding.

“Lin Manman, that handsome guy seems to be waiting for you to come out.” Lin Manman’s friend whispered, “Just now someone said that a guy is waiting for you downstairs the teaching building. How did you know such a handsome guy? You didn’t reveal a hint.”

Lin Manman was also at a loss: “I don’t know him.”

The friend pushed her over: “Go and ask.”

Lin Manman looked at Shen Zhen, a little nervous, but soon pulled herself together and walked over with a smile on her face.

“Lin Manman?” Seeing Lin Manman approaching, Shen Zhen called out her name.

Lin Manman: “Yes, it’s me, and you?”

Shen Zhen took out a paper bag from behind, which contained a cup of milk tea. He handed the paper bag to Lin Manman, and then introduced himself, “I am Han Lang’s brother. I bought this cup of milk tea at the gate of your school. It hasn’t been opened.”

Only then did Lin Manman take out the milk tea and put in a straw. She stood beside Shen Zhen, her heart pounding against her chest like a deer, and she lowered her head: “Han Lang hasn’t come to school these days, is he sick?”

Shen Zhen didn’t expect that Lin Manman didn’t know about it yet, so he asked gently, “You aren’t dating Han Lang?”

Lin Manman hastily explained: “We are just friends. He said some time ago that he wanted to make a small game app. I happened to be free, so I worked with him on it.”

After all, in garden landscapes they also learned model design. Although it was not necessary for small games, scene design was still possible.

Lin Manman suddenly asked: “What happened to him? Did something happen?”

Shen Zhen: “Sun Yun, do you know him?”

Lin Manman’s face suddenly turned pale: “Did he trouble Han Lang? I have explained to him several times but he is very domineering. I dated him in my freshman year, but I just can’t stand his machismo so I broke up with him. After we broke up, he several times he has threatened my male friends.”

“I also told Han Lang about this.” Lin Manman explained anxiously, “Han Lang said it’s okay, that he isn’t dating me, and Sun Yun has no reason to bother him.”

Lin Manman: “Han Lang…..did something really happen to him?”

Shen Zhen nodded: “He was sent to the hospital last night, and is still in a coma.”

Lin Manman’s face turned pale: “How can this be…..”

“I’ll call Sun Yun, I want to ask him.”

Lin Manman took out her mobile phone and pulled up Sun Yun’s number from the blacklist.

Lin Manman took Shen Zhen to a quiet corner and turned on the speaker.

The connection was made within ten seconds after the number was called.

“Manman? Taking the initiative to call me? Have you figured it out?”

Lin Manman pressed the record button.

She asked: “Sun Yun, I have told you many times, we have already broken up, please don’t pester me and the people around me anymore, Han Lang and I…..”

The male voice on the other line interrupted her violently: “I said it before! You can’t be with any man in this life except me! What is Han Lang? Does he have money like me? What can you get from being with him? Let me tell you, if you still want to be with Han Lang, he will only be worse off than now!”

Lin Manman: “Speak clearly, what did you do to Han Lang?!”

Male voice: “Don’t worry about it, you just have to remember, whoever dares to date you except me, Han Lang’s fate will be their fate!”

Lin Manman yelled at the phone: “I have no feelings for you, and I don’t want to be with you, I’m not your property!”

Sun Yun snorted coldly: “What you say doesn’t count.”

Lin Manman glanced at Shen Zhen, and Shen Zhen nodded to her.

Lin Manman’s tone softened: “Sun Yun, I really have nothing to do with Han Lang.”

Sun Yun said: “I don’t care if there is anything or not, anyway, whoever dares to touch my woman, I will make him pay the price. I’m not afraid of you knowing that Han Lang’s beating is his own fault, if it wasn’t because he didn’t want to kneel down and apologize to me, I would not have him beat so miserably.”

Lin Manman was trembling with anger.

Just as she was about to say something, Sun Yun said, “I still have something to do. I will pick you up from school at night, so I’ll hang up first.”

After hanging up the phone, Lin Manman said to Shen Zhen guiltily: “I didn’t know he would really do this, otherwise I wouldn’t have worked on the game with Han Lang…..”

Shen Zhen: “It’s not your fault.”

Lin Manman looked up at Shen Zhen. Under the sun, Shen Zhen’s eyelashes looked very long, long and curled, and his facial features were also very fine and exquisite.

Some people passed by and saw the two of them and began to joke goodnaturedly, especially those who knew Lin Manman.

“Manman, your boyfriend? He is so handsome!”

“Manman, remember to treat me to dinner!”

“Your boyfriend is so handsome! You must cherish it, Manman!”

Lin Manman’s face turned red and then white.

Shen Zhen: “Let’s add friends, and you can send me the recording.”

Lin Manman nodded: “Okay, if you have any news, or if you need me to do something, you can tell me.”

Lin Manman said: “This incident also happened because of me…..”

Shen Zhen nodded: “En.”

There was a recording, witness, and medical record provided by the hospital. The only thing missing now was the surveillance video.

Shen Zhen looked at his watch, it was already four o’clock in the afternoon. He hadn’t eaten all day, but he still didn’t feel hungry.

The awards ceremony started at seven o’clock, and Shen Zhen had to go back now.

The awards ceremony this time was held by a local TV station. Shen Zhen went home and changed into a formal suit before driving to the TV station.

Qin Xing had already arrived, and was in the backstage lounge of the TV station.

Shen Zhen walked into the backstage and found that Qin Xing was the only one sitting in the lounge.

“Only Uncle is here?” Shen Zhen asked strangely.

Qin Xing was reading the newspaper. He put the newspaper down and smiled at Shen Zhen: “The others are in another lounge.”

Shen Zhen understood: “Uncle’s special treatment.”

Qin Xing chuckled.

Shen Zhen was suddenly a little embarrassed. Ever since he and Qin Xing pierced the window paper, he always felt embarrassed easily.

“It’s the first time for me to attend an awards ceremony.” Shen Zhen sat next to Qin Xing, and went to get the teacup with slightly stiff movements.

Qin Xing’s movements were very natural. He stretched out an arm and put it directly around Shen Zhen’s shoulder.

“Don’t be nervous.” Qin Xing said, “Xiao Zhen is the best.”

Shen Zhen blurted out: “You are just saying that because the beauty is in the eye of the beholder…..”

But before he finished speaking, Shen Zhen felt something was wrong with the phrase he used. He really wanted to dig a hole for himself. Why did he feel so shameless when he said that.

“Xiao Zhen is right.” Qin Xing smiled and kissed Shen Zhen’s earlobe.

Shen Zhen’s ears turned red instantly, and it even twitched. Why did he feel that Qin Xing seemed to have become a different person since the kiss from last time, and that the Uncle Qin who had always been calm, self-contained and abstinent was gone forever.

He suddenly missed that Uncle Qin a little bit.

“Are you hungry?” Qin Xing asked.

Shen Zhen shook his head: “I’m not hungry, I don’t want to eat.”

Qin Xing: “I’ll take you to dinner after the awards ceremony is over.”

Shen Zhen did not refuse.

There weren’t many people in the studio. After all, it was a local TV station. It didn’t have much funding, so it didn’t invite audiences. It was enough for one to come on stage when his name was called by the host.

Shen Zhen didn’t know who wrote the introduction for him, and he got goosebumps when he heard it.

“Shen Zhen, chairman and general manager of Tonghui Enterprise, is a young entrepreneur who puts the people in his heart and is committed to serving the people. Although he is young, he is humble and Tonghui Enterprise which is involved in real estate and network information has made outstanding contributions to the stability of the market, and at the same time provides a better network platform for the public. All roads lead to Rome, and emerging industries can also become the pillars of society!”

Shen Zhen blushed when he heard this in the audience, it was like a public punishment.

So embarrassing.

Qin Xing didn’t hold back, and also laughed out loud, saying to Shen Zhen in a low voice, “Go on.”

Shen Zhen could only go up still with a blush.

Although his speech was memorized in advance, Shen Zhen still missed two sentences.

He really didn’t want to participate in such an award ceremony in the future, what was the point? Other than to suffer an execution of embarrassment in public.

The employees working at Qin Group the next day found that the company’s big screen in the lobby was all turned on. In fact, this screen was rarely turned on. Usually it was only turned on when there were important notifications. However, as soon as they went to work today, the screen kept playing Shen Zhen winning an award.

“Isn’t this CEO Qin’s secretary?”

“A young entrepreneur.”

“Who said last time that he has an improper relationship with Mr. Qin? Got slapped in the face, huh?”

“He looks even more handsome on TV. Has a good relationship with Mr. Qin, and has his own money and company. Damn, what a winner in life.”

“But…..having said that, why is it being played on a loop?”

“…..Why do I have the feeling that Mr. Qin is showing off?”

“Honestly, I feel the same way.”

You c an fi nd t he la te st cha pte rs at ( th e bl mu se . c o m )

“That’s right. When Eldest Young Master Qin received an award before, the company never broadcast it, let alone broadcast it on a loop.”

Assistant Ma, who knew every inside information, walked by arrogantly.

Hmph, when an older man falls in love, it was like a house catching on fire. You people just wait and see, this kind of level is only relatively modest.
