The woman bit her lower lip, "Will Qi Shang return to China?"

"Miss him?" Chen Chongzhou smiled meaningfully, "I can pick him up to reunite with you."

"It's not that you don't understand the relationship between me and him. He takes care of me and loves me. I remember it in my heart, but I have nothing to think about him." The woman stroked the boy's head, "Longlong cries from morning to night, very I want my father, when I was abroad, Qi Shang spent more time with him than I did, and when he lost his temper, he only recognized Qi Shang, so I can't help it."

Chen Chongzhou got up, and touched Longlong's face with the back of his hand with great interest. Longlong curled up vigilantly, and his small hands firmly grasped the woman's skirt.

He couldn’t help laughing, “Am I so scary?”

Longlong's nest is on the woman's chest, and he is not allowed to touch it.

"Chongzhou, you seem to like children very much."

Chen Chongzhou stopped gesturing and hummed hoarsely.

"Qi Shang's friends went abroad for their honeymoon, and they talked about your engagement to the Second Miss of the He family, and that you are going to be a father."

"There is no such thing as engagement." He calmly denied it, and then remained silent for a moment, "Being a father is true, but there was an accident in the middle, so I didn't keep it."

The woman pursed her lips, "If you don't keep it, there is no fate. Chongzhou, after all these years, I don't believe in anything, I believe in fate, I believe in the cycle of cause and effect."

The atmosphere was inexplicably depressed, and Longlong had another fit in her arms, the woman said helplessly, "I'll take him back to the room."

When turning around, Chen Chongzhou casually said, "I thought you would care about him."

The woman stumbled and stopped immediately.

He returned to the bar and drank the unfinished cocktail, "Do you want to know?"

She turned her back and took a deep breath, "Is he... okay."

"He's in love with another woman."

The snow-white and slender hands were clenched tightly, so tight that the veins swelled, "Really."

Chen Chongzhou also turned his back to her, "Very young and innocent."

"His vision is never wrong." The woman smiled bitterly, "Do you have any photos?"

He turned slightly, "Qi Shang will be chilled if you can't let go."

She was trembling faintly, naked like the end of a world of ice and snow, cold to the bone.

Chen Chongzhou put down the empty cup, "Have you ever wanted to meet him?"

The woman swayed and was so excited that she couldn't stand still, "Is there a chance for me to see him again?"

"After seeing it, does it come back from the ashes?" His eyes were calm, and the woman had nowhere to hide.

"Chongzhou——" She looked at him helplessly, "I was desperate back then, and you were the one who rescued me. I owe you too much. What are you taboo about, I dare not—"

"If you have the ability, you can repay me by awakening his old love."

The woman was stunned and couldn't believe it, "Repay you?"

"It's my woman he fell in love with."

Her thin body was under a lamplight, and her loneliness made people pitiful. "He has always been rational, but he has lost his sense of proportion."

"Aren't you reconciled? You are innocent, but you have to bear this situation." The moment Chen Chongzhou stepped on the stairs and passed by each other, "Don't forget, Chen Zheng is the culprit. He wants to have a perfect and flawless Heir, to keep the prosperity of the family unabated, you will not hesitate to use ruthless measures. If you want revenge, the easiest way is to harm his most precious things, such as destroying the Chen family and capturing his eldest son."

The woman trembled, "Aren't you from the Chen family?"

With a calm face, he didn't stop, "So what."

There is a refreshing pot of mint grass on the window sill of the study, and the eyes look over the tip of the green grass. At that time, the moon was clear and the long night was covered with hoarfrost.

With a smile on his lips, Chen Chongzhou overlooked the downstairs.

Inadvertently, I found a figure hiding behind the cypress trees in the southwest, looking around the second floor furtively.

He closed the curtains quietly, walked to the desk, dialed the internal line of the guest room, and ordered the bodyguards to investigate the situation.

About half an hour later, the bodyguard pushed open the door of the study, "It's a middle-aged man wearing a peaked cap, the brim of which covers the bridge of the nose, he can't really see his face, he is of medium height, and has a thin body. I pretended to reverse the car and asked him to move. Which building is he a resident of? He said visiting friends with a local accent.”

Chen Chongzhou sat in the executive chair, thoughtful, "It seems that Guiyuan has been exposed."

The bodyguard was inconceivable, "Have you been exposed within three days after returning to China?"

He picked up the book and turned a page, "Maybe there is a ghost inside."

The bodyguard's complexion changed suddenly, "I have dug out everyone in Guiyuan in detail, and there is absolutely no possibility of betraying you."

Chen Chongzhou concentrated on his studies for a long time, "Go down."

The European-style floor lamp at the corner of the table flashed a dangerous cold light.

projected in his eyes.

suddenly extinguished.

In the darkness, Chen Chongzhou dialed a series of numbers again, and the other end answered quickly, "Second Young Master?"

"Sister Lan, has father rested yet?"

"No rest, are you looking for the chairman?"

Chen Chongzhou glanced at his watch, 11:30.

Usually, Chen Zheng would have fallen asleep if he hadn't had an important official business.

Apparently something happened tonight.

He probed, "The landline in my father's study seems to be broken, and the phone line was cut. Has it been repaired?"

"Is it broken?" Sister Lan didn't know why, "No problem, the chairman was still on the phone just now."

"Oh." He said with a smile in his voice, "You might as well leave Fucheng's business affairs to the eldest brother and me. Father needs to take care of his health. I will tell my subordinates not to disturb him at night as much as possible."

Sister Lan didn't notice his abnormality at all, "I'm not an employee of the group. I transferred the call from the living room. It was a strange man. I asked who he was, and he replied that he was applying for a commercial loan."

Chen Chongzhou narrowed his eyes, knowing it well, "I just greet you casually, you don't have to mention it to your father."

He turned off the phone, leaned against the backrest, and massaged his temples.

Get rid of An Qiao, and a more daring one will come.

Chen Zheng's morality is indeed profound, this chess piece landed in the fortress where the three parties faced each other, he, Chen Yuan, and the Zhou family locked the throat without any effort.

***

On the eve of the wedding, Chen Ling suddenly disappeared.

The servants in the old house have been unable to contact him, and all three cell phone numbers under his name have been turned off.

Chen Zheng was annoyed on the spot, "His second brother got married, so he didn't show up?"

Zhang Li struck a match, lit the smoke pot, and advised him, "You know the nature of the third master best. He disdains this kind of occasion."

"My birthday banquet, Jiang Rong and Pei Yu's birthday banquet, he never attended, did I blame him? Tomorrow is Zhiyun's wedding banquet, countless eyes are watching! In the column of VIP seats, fill in his name first , Half of the distinguished guests patronize him for his face, and he doesn't attend, what kind of talk!"

Those celebrities and dignitaries in the province hoped to use Chen Zhiyun's wedding banquet to curry favor with Chen Ling. His brilliance was created in the hail of bullets, and his prestige was quite high, so he could be said to be unstoppable.Indulging in this towering tree is equivalent to opening up the two veins of Ren and Du in Vanity Fair, and Chen Ling's signature is precious.

However, he really does not take hard and soft, and his conduct is impeccable, he does not form party members, does not reveal desires, has been a widow for 20 years, covered with scars and achievements, and his hands are so clean that they are not stained with any dirt.

Clinging to him is difficult to ascend to the blue sky.

Fortunately, Chen Zhiyun's wedding provided an opportunity, and this group of businessmen just wanted to be familiar with him.For this reason, hundreds of thousands to millions of congratulatory gifts were piled up in the warehouse of the Chen family.

When the result came, Chen Ling avoided it completely.

Chen Zheng was left on the cusp of the storm, and the congratulatory gifts he received were like hot potatoes, which he couldn't throw away or keep.

Just when the Chen family was in dire straits, Chen Zhiyun's company welcomed a group of unexpected guests.

Without any warning, more than a dozen public officials blocked the president's office on the fourth floor.

The leading man was wearing a pure black uniform, with a resolute aura, and the silver-white police badge and epaulets shone brightly under the lights.

Bright, menacing, elegant and calm.

He tilted his head and ordered his accompanying subordinates, "The chief financial officer and the director of the marketing department must cooperate with the investigation."

The subordinate nodded, and walked to the staff office hall next door, followed by chaos at the scene.

"It's Chen Ling!" The front desk pointed to the man standing in the center, "He was reported in the news, he solved a major case at the border, and he made great military achievements."

The female colleague is very familiar, "Chen Ling? Is he Chen Dong's younger brother?"

"Yes." The receptionist nodded and looked at him, "I am more handsome than on TV."

Chen Zhiyun heard the commotion in the office, pulled the door out, and was shocked by the scene in front of him.

Chen Ling stepped over, and the breath of a mature man passed by, mixed with metal rust and a strong smell of nicotine, like the headnote of rosemary, which is intoxicating and intoxicating, and it is not so worldly or ostentatious.

Calm, silent integrity and wildness.

Fighting, hitting, gushing.

Chen Zhiyun's face was full of clouds and mist, he was not sure why Chen Ling came, "Third brother, who are you going to fight against?"

Chen Ling stood still, "Chairman Chen, who do you think I am attacking in your company?"

Upon hearing the address, Chen Zhiyun's secretary gasped.

It's been stabbed.

"At me." He buttoned up his suit, "What's the reason?"

"You are clear about whether the source channel of the project you opened recently is regular and clean. If you admit it yourself, you will be punished lightly, and it will be boring to pick it out from me."

Chen Zhiyun pretended to be calm, "You are not from the mall, you don't understand the twists and turns of this business. There is healthy competition, but there is also malicious slander. Once the slander succeeds, you will swallow up my resources and even my company. The methods are unbearable, of course, I am not that kind of person, my methods are always aboveboard."

Chen Ling smiled, "Chairman Chen, there are places where you can prove your innocence, but not here."

"Third brother." Chen Zhiyun's face gradually shrouded in gloom, with a tone of discussion, "The banquet at noon tomorrow is not only my wedding banquet, but also a happy event for the Chen family. I have been planning it for several months. Guest, I promise you that I will cooperate with the investigation after the show is over."

Although it was a discussion, moving out of the Chen family was tantamount to overpowering Chen Ling.

Chen Ling respected Chen Zheng very much. The Chen family's parents died early, and the elder brother was like a father. Besides, Chen Zheng treated his younger brother with all his heart, at least on the surface.

He has a straight posture and does not give an inch, "I will explain it to my elder brother myself."

"Your explanation is worthless in front of the reputation and interests of the Chen family." Chen Zhiyun approached him, "Brother is a businessman, he does business without profiteering, and pursues without profit. Can your set of moral laws and regulations convince him? "

"If it doesn't work, it will work." Chen Ling stood still and said fiercely, "Chen Dong, come with us."

The next morning, the news that Chen Zhiyun was controlled by the inspection team reached the Chen family, and Chen Zheng ran to the general office to block Chen Ling in a rage.

But he himself did not appear, and only appointed his secretary Gu Yunzhi to negotiate, "Chen Dong, the Chen hall is not here."

"Where are the others? Are you avoiding me?" Chen Zheng rushed to the office in a hurry.

"Chen Dong!" Gu Yunzhi followed, "If you make a big fuss in the public domain, it's obstructing the official business, and it's against the rules."

Chen Zheng persisted, "I must see him, otherwise I won't leave."

Gu Yunzhi was in a dilemma, "Chen Ting went out to host a meeting, and he won't be back for a while."

"I'm waiting for him in the office. I want to see if Chen Ling will come back! How can he perfunctory me." Chen Zheng threw Gu Yunzhi away and entered the office.

At the same time, the wedding banquet venue of the Fuli Restaurant is in full swing, and the four wives are accompanying Ni Ying in the background, only Chen Zhiyun is missing.

She changed her wedding dress and touched up her makeup in front of the mirror, while Mrs. Sun was playing with the ring box, "Ms. Jiang from the Rongli Group gave birth at the age of 45. Her husband was [-]. The son and daughter left by her ex-wife died in an air crash." , The huge Rongli Group has no one to inherit. Her husband has no choice but to cultivate a godson in order to have a successor. Can Mrs. Jiang be at ease? Who can guarantee that the godson will be a human or a ghost. She has simply gambled her life to strengthen her position. "

Ni Ying's expression darkened. The two surgeries deprived her of the hope of having a child. This incident was strictly concealed from the outside world, including the Chen family.

"I treat Zhiyun's daughter as my own, and she will be filial to me in the future."

"How can a stepdaughter be the same as her biological one?" Mrs. Sun picked out the jewels on the dressing table, "It's separated by the belly and the heart. In the future, the family property will be divided, and she is filial to the mother. What are you doing? She cares about you for the rest of your life? Chen Dong is more than 50, if you die, you don't have a child from the Chen family, and you will end up leaving the house without leaving the house."

Ni Ying fiddled with a lipstick, but said nothing.

The driver rushed into the dressing room in a panic and reported in a low voice, "Ma'am, Chen Ling's secretary is calling. The second master is in trouble."

She stood up, "Chen Ling?"

"At first, the superior was worried about him and didn't intend to investigate the second master. I didn't expect him to take the initiative to lead the team, so the superior naturally left it to him."

Ni Ying turned pale with shock, "How long will the investigation take?"

The driver shook his head, "It's not sure. Chen Ling is notoriously ruthless. He intervenes, and he will not stop until he finds out the truth."

She lifted the tablecloth violently, and the cosmetics on the table instantly shattered, "They are brothers after all, so they are so merciless, do they have to be uprooted?"

"Currently in the review stage, we can't talk about a final decision. Madam, don't be impatient."

Ni Ying closed her eyes and clenched her fists hard, "Chen Ling took people away with great fanfare, disrupted the wedding, Zhiyun's reputation plummeted, the partner collapsed, the project was suspended, and the stock market was turbulent. to recover.”

The driver was also puzzled, "Chen Ling is coming back aggressively, there is probably someone behind the scenes."

"Who can push him?" Ni Ying was filled with indignation, "Chen Ling's temperament, who wouldn't be afraid of him? Mrs. Fu told me personally that the director of a state-owned enterprise in a foreign city asked him to play the favor card and let him go. It was nothing more than a decision-making error. Worried about the responsibility of the board of directors, he secretly diverted a sum of public funds to demolish the east wall and repair the west wall. The hole was patched in half a month, but Chen Ling couldn't let it go, and there was nothing wrong with it. The director was dismissed and sentenced. Be safe and keep yourself , He ignores you, does crooked ways, and kills you. Many projects in Zhiyun’s company are green-lighted and decided by default. If Chen Ling finds out about this, won’t he kill his relatives himself?”

She slumped on a chair, completely out of her wits.

Mrs. Sun winked, and the surrounding ladies left one after another without even saying hello.

The driver yelled at their backs, "One second they were flattering, and the next second the trees fell and the monkeys scattered. It's too quick to change faces."

"The more high-ranking people are, the more they tend to be in power, and people take tea to cool off." Ni Ying rubbed her mobile phone screen with her fingertips, "Chen Chongzhou, we have been in love for many years, you really have the heart to ruin me."
