honey

When Lu Zhan came out of the prison, the sky was already cloudy, and the dark clouds approached the earth heavily, and the air was so dull that it was hard to breathe.

Gu Xichuan waited outside for half an hour before he came out. He stepped forward and took Lu Zhan's arm naturally, and asked with concern, "What did uncle say?"

Lu Zhan turned his head and glanced at the gate of the prison dully, his voice was soft and hoarse: "There is no case to be overturned."

"..."

The worst guess turned out to be true, Gu Qichuan was afraid of making Lu Zhan sad, so he didn't dare to ask further.

Seeing that the rain was about to pour down, he led Lu Zhan to walk into the car, and touched his palm only to find that the temperature was a little high.

Looking at it again, Lu Zhan's cheeks began to blush again - this situation only appeared in the few days after the operation.

"Do you have a fever...?"

Before the words fell, Lu Zhan staggered and was about to fall face down. Gu Xichuan quickly grabbed his waist and shoulders and hugged him in time.

Before the rainstorm approached the city, Lu Zhan was sent to the hospital.

Contrary to the sudden drop in temperature on a rainy day, Luzhan's body temperature.

Dr. Li gave the patient medicine, and then asked Gu Qichuan what was going on. When Lu Zhan came to the follow-up visit a few days ago, his physical condition was very stable. He suddenly fell ill. He must have suffered trauma or mental shock. It seems that it can only be the latter .

Gu Xichuan didn't know the details of the conversation in the prison, but he knew the meaning of the words "no case to be overturned" - Lu Weiguo was not wronged, and the five years that Lu Zhan sacrificed to prove his father's innocence were just a joke.

"His closest and most trusted relatives lied to him."

Mr. Gu finally gave Dr. Li such an answer.

During the night when Lu Zhan was hospitalized, the torrential rain outside did not stop. In the middle of the night, the strong wind grabbed the branches and leaves of the trees and smashed against the glass windows, making the ward in the early morning extremely noisy.

Lu Zhan was not disturbed, and fell asleep quietly, but Gu Xichuan was not at all sleepy. He got up and adjusted the rate of the drip, then sat back on the bed, quietly stared at Lu Zhan's sleeping face, and put his hand on his forehead. After confirming that his body temperature hadn't risen again, he stretched out his index finger, brushed across the bridge of his pretty nose, and finally tapped on the tip of his nose.

During the eight years of being a pen pal, he had imagined the appearance of Xiao Deng countless times.

What kind of person is hidden behind those warm words?

Before meeting Lu Zhan, Gu Xichuan had countless fantasies.

During treatment in the UK, he once shared part of the contents of the letter according to the psychiatrist's suggestion. The contents in it were pieced together, and various life scenes could be imagined.

These contents were handed over to a professional actor, who simulated Xiaodeng's character after familiarizing himself with this special "script".

Compared with facing a doctor, the actor who imitated Xiao Deng's character made Gu Xichuan more eager to talk.

During the five years when he lost contact, he cured his mental illness by relying on the shadow of the little lamp, and the actor received a lot of "performance therapy fee".

He thought that the real little lamp should also have the endless vigor in the "script", but when it really broke into his life, he was shocked to find that the ever-growing little lamp had been completely strangled.

Lu Zhan, who was by his side now, was too fragile to be vulnerable.

Gu Qichuan didn't know how to protect him at all.

The rainstorm didn't stop until the sun came out, and when Lu Zhan woke up, the rain on the window hadn't dried up.

He saw Mr. Gu with dark circles under his eyes, and asked if he hadn't slept all night.

Gu Xichuan avoided answering, and only cared about whether he felt any discomfort.

Dr. Li came in to check Lu Zhan. Although his temperature dropped, he still had a low-grade fever. He might have to stay in the hospital for a few more days.

Gu Xichuan touched the back of Lu Zhan's head and said, "Gong Lu will take a rest this week, I'm going on leave."

Lu Zhan looked at him, smiled slightly, and replied helplessly: "Okay."

After Dr. Li went out, Gu Qichuan asked softly, "Would Xiaodeng tell me what happened?"

He tactfully brought the topic to Lu Weiguo, and his tone was coaxing and discussing, for fear of making Lu Zhan feel oppressed.

Seeing this, Lu Zhan cautiously raised his hand to cover the back of Gu Xichuan's hand, and said hoarsely: "My father... really did those things, he is not innocent, whether it is the death sentence in the first trial or life sentence in the second trial, it is not wronged him. "

"Xi Chuan, you don't have to worry about the Lu family's case anymore. The Lu family has no unjust cases, and I deserve to be punished by the industry..."

"Don't talk nonsense!" Gu Xichuan interrupted Lu Zhan's disparaging remarks, and said: "Uncle Lu did something wrong, and he bears the consequences he should bear. You are innocent, and no one can poke your spine because of this."

He hugged Lu Zhan: "I don't allow you to think that way."

Lu Zhan's tears swirled rapidly in his eyes, and one fell before it could be contained, and it fell down and burned Gu Xichuan's shoulder.

"I... I can't believe that my father, who taught me to be kind to others since childhood, would do such a thing..." Lu Zhan choked up: "The six lives are a blood debt owed by the Lu family, and they will be repaid all their lives. clear…"

Gu Xichuan caressed his back distressedly: "This blood debt is not owed by you, you are not allowed to take it on yourself, even if the Lu family really wants to make atonement, your father's indemnity, the indemnity of that year... plus your five years, Enough is enough, little lamp, you have suffered enough!"

"Furthermore, Uncle Lu is not the mastermind. The person who bribed him back then is still at large. He should be fully responsible for this bloody debt."

Lu Zhan's arms around Gu Xichuan slowly clenched into fists. He struggled to hold back his tears: "Find the mastermind back then, and let him be punished as he should be, so that the Lu family's debts can be paid off..."

Hearing the firmness in his words, Gu Qichuan quickly let go of his arms, looked at Lu Zhan's teary eyes and asked, "Did Uncle Lu tell you something?"

"...no...no."

Lu Zhan originally wanted to hide it, he didn't know the Li family, he only knew about Li Jun, five years ago, Li Jun was able to use his influence to hide the extremely popular Qin Zhuo, he was also the mastermind of the car accident, but even if he injured Li Jun has been going smoothly in the past few years, which shows how powerful the Li family he relies on is.

Lu Zhan didn't want Gu Qichuan to have such a strong enemy.

However, his lying skills are really clumsy, and Gu Xichuan was able to conclude that Lu Zhan had something to hide from him just two times when his voice paused.

"You must know something, but you don't want to tell me." Mr. Gu exposed Lu Zhan's thoughts face to face: "The case was very sensational back then, and the media paid close attention to it, but the mastermind behind the scenes has never been found out."

"In court, the judge once asked Uncle Lu who the briber was. Uncle Lu dared not reveal a word. In fact, as long as he confessed, the death penalty might be exempted in the first instance. Your father would rather die than reveal the mastermind. It must be the other party who took you. Threatening him shows that this briber is very powerful."

"You are so hesitant, you must be worried that I will be involved, and you want to carry it by yourself."

"For me to be implicated, the other party's forces must be able to fight against Gu Yi. In fact, there are not many families in China that can barely fight against the Gu family."

Lu Zhan felt that Gu Qichuan's eyes were about to see through him.

He heard Mr. Gu ask abruptly, "Is it the Li family?"

"no!"

"It's so flustered to deny it." Gu Qichuan raised his hand and wiped away the tears from the corners of Xiaodeng's eyes with his thumb:

"It looks like it is."

-

On the outskirts of the Kinno Golf Course.

A lady got out of the car that had just stopped and was allowed to enter the court after revealing her identity. She stepped on the lawn with stilettos and walked slowly to the tee.

She stopped beside a tall man who was holding a club. There was no one else around except the caddy. The female secretary said directly:

"The database in the cloud was hacked. Zhang Shan, who was scheduled to fly to Australia this week, has lost contact. We can't contact him now."

The woman's tone was full of worry: "President Li, the person who is investigating this matter is Gu Xichuan."

The movements of Li Xiao's hands paused. He turned his head slightly and looked at the female secretary. Under the brim of his hat was a pair of young and aggressive eyes. He was a little puzzled: "Why did Gu Xichuan investigate this matter?"

The female secretary turned the page of the information in her hand, and replied: "It seems that it is because of Lu Weiguo's son, Lu Zhan, and they are dating. Lu Zhan went to visit the prison this Tuesday morning."

Li Xiao glanced at the wide court and frowned slightly: "Where is the second young master?"

"Still filming on set."

"He was having a good time, and he threw me a lot of mess." Li Xiao regained his grip on the club, and the strength of his serve was twice as strong as usual. The ball that could have been holed in one fell directly into the water obstacle.

"Bring the second young master back."

The female secretary wondered: "The second young master is bound by Gu Yi's contract, so he won't be able to come back if he just comes back, so he needs to ask for leave."

She didn't dare to say clearly that the fake second young master of the Li family might need Gu Xichuan's approval.

"..."

Li Xiao handed the club to the caddy, and said to the secretary, "Give me the phone."

The secretary quickly handed over Mr. Li's personal mobile phone.

Li Xiao made an overseas call.

After waiting for a long time after dialing, the other party picked up.

It's 3am in the UK right now.

The voice of the person who answered the phone was full of tiredness, apparently awakened from sleep.

"...Who? Sorry...I'm not in service right now..."

"Luo, it's me."

The boy woke up instantly: "...Li Xiao?!"

"Go back to your country." Li Xiao said flatly, "I miss you."
