In a villa somewhere in Haishi——

"The project of Orient International was stopped, saying that it was a quality problem, and now the relevant departments have intervened in the investigation. There is also a subpoena from the court, saying that you shielded and condoned the person who pretended to be a maddog painting, and sued you for violating the right of name. And there is no death record. It was also found out that his wife’s illness caused harm to the two young masters, because the wife was a mental patient who had not completely lost control of her behavior and caused harmful consequences, she was sued for intentional injury, and the prosecutor was Lu Wei.”

Xia Shangzhe and Zhou Rui were stunned for a long time when they saw their respective court summons. The last thing they expected was Zhou Rui. She didn't expect that she would be investigated.

"Who is Lu Wei?" Xia Shangzhe looked at the subpoena in his hand and felt a little ridiculous: "Infringement of the right of name, where did this Wei Wei find out that I violated the right of name!!"

He was so angry that he threw the paper on the floor, and if he looked closely, he could see that his hand was shaking.

"Azhe, someone checked me..."

Xia Shangzhe frowned even more fearfully when he heard Zhou Rui's crying voice behind him, who actually found out about Zhou Rui's existence and filed a lawsuit against both of them at the same time? What kind of trivial lawsuit is this?

His eyes were gloomy: "It's ridiculous, infringing on the right of name? When did I cover up and instruct others to infringe on the right of maddog's name? My behavior was only temporary. I just wanted to dispel Chengcheng's idea of ​​continuing to paint. And Zhou Rui's Who leaked the matter, how could anyone still know what happened back then?!!! Lin Rui, what's going on, who is that Lieutenant Lu?"

The assistant looked at the furious Mr. Xia and lowered his head silently, thinking of how to speak less easily angered: "Lieutenant Lu is the newly appointed CEO of Lu Xiao Group, the reason for subpoenaing you and your wife..."

Xia Shangzhe didn't expect that someone would dare to intercept his project, not only messing with him on the project, but also investigating his private life. It turned out to be the Lu Xiao Group? !

"what is the reason?"

He has been in the business world for decades. This place is a mixed bag with fierce competition and it is not the world of literature and art. Who would be courteous? There is a lot of right and wrong in front of money. Once there is friction, he will never cooperate again.But he couldn't figure out why Lu Xiao Group would come to him again. They did have business conflicts before, but they shouldn't have any contact with each other since then. Why did they take the initiative to stir up trouble this time?

"It's over, isn't it because of me?" Zhou Rui immediately thought of Weifeng Art Museum when he heard the word Lu Wei: "I went back to Weifeng Art Museum just to find him, but he didn't agree that I could Participating in the planning of Chengcheng's art exhibition, could it be that he is looking for who I am? He is a maddog fan, which means he knows that maddog is Chengcheng? Could it be that Chengcheng told him that we..."

She knew before that Wei Lu was a crazy fan of maddog. Basically, when maddog's paintings appeared, he would definitely buy them. No matter what method he used, could it be that he was looking for her identity and was wary of her?

Xia Shangzhe patted her on the back as comfort, and looked at the assistant with a serious expression: "What is the reason? Tell me quickly!"

"The reason is that you offended Lu Wei, the current president of Lu Xiao Group, who is the darling of Lu Wei. Now that you are upset, I want to mess with you." The assistant said cautiously, although he felt that his salary might be deducted , but he also took a big risk. Thinking of being stopped in the morning, he thought he had broken the law.

Those people are so arrogant and savage that they threaten him to bring all the words to Mr. Xia, and they also say that there are people watching around at any time, so if you dare not speak, be careful at night. Does he dare not speak?

"Sweetie?" Xia Shangzhe was stunned: "What sweetheart, where have I seen his sweetheart?"

The assistant smiled awkwardly: "It's our young master."

Xia Shangzhe's expression changed suddenly: "What?!"

"...He is the young master's boyfriend, so he is his sweetheart. At that time, we couldn't find out who took the painting "Winter in Paris" on the black market. In fact, he took it away."

Xia Shangzhe narrowed his eyes and became vigilant: "Where is this painting?!"

Back then, he directed and acted to auction off his son's painting under the name of the victim, and bought the painting himself to make Xia Xingcheng die of his desire to paint, but because the painting was lost during transportation, it was later sold on the black market. The price was sky-high.

Did someone get caught now?The self-directed and self-acted drama put himself in a difficult situation.

His son actually called a boyfriend named Lu Wei? !

The assistant put another document bag on the table: "Here is what Lu Wei asked someone to bring over. He said that the information inside must be seen by the two of you, so that you are mentally prepared."

Xia Shangzhe had an ominous premonition, he took the file bag and opened it: "When did the boyfriend happen, and how did you get this thing? That Captain Lu knows you?"

The assistant felt extremely hurt when he thought of what happened before he came to the villa: "I was stopped by a pickup truck, and eight or nine strong men got off from it and surrounded me. Someone asked me to hand over my things to Mr. Xia, you also said that it must be handed over to you in person, here...is your criminal record. "

Xia Shangzhe paused: "What criminal record?"

"How can I see it? See for yourself."

Xia Shangzhe took the file bag, thinking in his heart that besides Xia Xingcheng and Xia Xingche, who else would know about these things, could it be that Xia Xingcheng told Lu Wei to retaliate against him?

While taking out the contents inside, he said: "How could I have any criminal records—"

When his eyes fell on the words on the paper, his pupils shrank suddenly, and he stood up abruptly, as if seeing something frightening.

The paper in his hand was not a document, but the case information. The three words Xia Xingcheng came into view like a needle prick, and the date of seeing a doctor was yesterday.

——Sudden green vision and fainting, intracranial congestion oppressing the optic nerve leading to blurred vision, low blood pressure and temporary conservative treatment, if self-healing is not possible, a second craniotomy and dredging operation will be performed.

There is also information on hospitalization in October, and surgery to remove appendicitis.

...and the incident of fainting and being admitted to the hospital in July due to hypoglycemia.

Xia Shangzhe's hand holding the paper trembled a little. In the end, this piece of paper felt like a heavy injury, and it was so painful that he almost suffocated. Buzzing.

Sitting back on the sofa weakly for a moment.

These words are like his and Zhou Rui's criminal records. It's his and Zhou Rui's fault, but all the crimes are committed by the children.He actually knew it, but when these past things were so naked, it seemed like a bolt from the blue when the evidence was in front of him.

Xia Xingcheng fainted yesterday because of intracranial congestion.

What the doctor said before happened after all. He said that Xia Xingcheng's repair ability was too slow, and it was very likely that the congestion would be eliminated very slowly.

So did he get his comeuppance?

How can he cover this kind of thing with his hands? What he did to the children, a person who was not dead was said to be dead by him, and now all of them are clearly spread out, and he is going to settle the score with him.

The assistant saw that his boss's face was frighteningly pale, which was very similar to the way he was frightened by those strong men on the way here: "Mr. Xia, are you okay?"

Zhou Rui was also frightened by Xia Shangzhe, she quickly supported him: "What's the matter?" She took the paper in his hand, but when she saw the content on it, she also turned pale: "...Chengcheng, what's the matter?" Did you faint? "

Xia Shangzhe stood up and made a gesture to go out. Seeing the situation, the assistant said, "Mr. Xia, Captain Lu asked me to bring you a message."

"What are you talking about?" Xia Shangzhe has no time to worry about so much now, he just wants to go to the hospital to see the child.

"He said he won't let you see the young master again, and he will do everything possible to prevent you from meeting the young master."

Xia Shangzhe paused, raised his eyes to look at the assistant, the wrinkles in the corners of his eyes were furrowed because of frowning, such commanding words made him feel very unhappy:

"what?"

He naturally knows the status of Lu Xiao Group, but is this challenging him?Think he will be timid?Aren't these subpoenas?Do you think he will really pay attention to it?

The assistant pointed to the paper in his hand: "It seems that there is something written on it, can you take a look?"

The paper on which the words were written was in Zhou Rui's hand, and she burst into tears when she saw it.

There is a sentence under the full case information, just like a knife, it is true and cruel to cut through the heart:

——Even a stranger like me will feel distressed when he sees it. If you don’t feel sorry for such a good child, you are really human. From today onwards, don’t think about seeing him unless he begs me to let you appear.Lu Weiliu

Zhou Rui slowly raised her head to look at Xia Shangzhe, the tears in her eyes could no longer stop: "I was really wrong, I really didn't mean to hurt Chengcheng at that time..."

wrong?

They were terribly wrong and unforgivably guilty.

Xia Shangzhe was suddenly in a daze, what was he doing, all their faults were retribution on the child, ironic and cruel.Even outsiders are better than them and know how to cherish a good child, but they don't.

Hands lowered heavily, eyes far-reaching: "Song Yuan, contact Lu Wei."

"Yes, Mr. Xia."

Xia Shangzhe looked at Zhou Rui and smiled palely: "Have you seen it, now I have to ask others even when I see a child."

Zhou Rui burst into tears.

"We're right, we deserve it."

.

The ward was so quiet that only the sound of breathing was left. Lu Wei lay on the side of the bed and dared not leave. He had to look at Xia Xingcheng even though he was struggling like this. He even tried to calm himself down and listen to Xia Xingcheng's breathing. Nothing happened, but he couldn't find any sense of security and could only absorb it by listening to his breath.

Holding Xia Xingcheng's hand and sticking it to his face, he felt that as long as he couldn't see Xia Xingcheng open his eyes again, his heart would be so painful that he couldn't breathe.

He still hasn't recovered yet. The moment Xia Xingcheng closed his eyes and fell down, his whole body was numb. In retrospect, he even forgot how he drove to the hospital. The whole world was terribly numb.

His forehead was pressed against the back of Xia Xingcheng's hand and his eyes were closed tightly. The brows were frowning as if he was holding back something, his eyelashes trembled with the eyes covered under his eyelids, and he couldn't restrain his panic at all.

"Chengcheng..."

The hoarse voice seemed to be scratched on sandpaper, with the deepest fear and lingering fear in his heart, and then it involved the love for Xia Xingcheng.

The information on those medical records is like scars from the past. After he knew about Xia Xingcheng's family affairs, he knew that there was pain behind how happy this guy was smiling before. Thinking about it now, it's not just pain, but also helpless because of the constant chatter. torment.

He didn't know how Xia Xingcheng faced his father's departure after meeting his father that day, how he let go of the pain in the past, how he let go of the pain he had suffered. He thought everything too lightly, and the more he thought about it, Just look at how tormenting he is now.

Thinking that Xia Xingcheng might become blind again, he felt that his sky was about to collapse.

These beautiful eyes once brought him so many brilliant colors, brought him out of the darkness, gave him light, gave him hope, it was his faith, how could it be swallowed up by darkness?

impossible.

"Why didn't I find out, I should have found out, I should have paid attention..." Kissing the back of Xia Xingcheng's hand, trembling with each kiss, and deep guilt in his voice.

When Xia Xingcheng woke up, he heard Lu Wei's voice, and heard Lu Wei's suppressed crying.

He can still see the dim light above his head, and he can still see all the current environment. If he can still see, he is still alive. As long as he is alive, there is still hope.

"Brother Wei, don't cry, I'm awake."

Lu Wei's dark eyes suddenly lit up, he looked closely at Xia Xingcheng who opened his eyes, and only at this moment did he feel his heart beating again.

"Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere? Does your head hurt? Does your vision blur? Do you feel like throwing up?" He leaned against the pillow and kept asking, as if he was looking for a sense of security.

Xia Xingcheng had never seen such a chaotic Lu Wei, he couldn't help laughing: "Hey Brother Wei, don't be nervous, I'm fine—"

"Xia Xingcheng!!"

He froze suddenly, and slowly looked at Wei Lu's red eyes, and then he saw Wei Lu holding his hand and putting his forehead on the back of his hand, sitting on the edge of the bed, closing his eyes and silent without speaking.

Such silence is like silent crying, so silent that it makes people feel distressed.

Xia Xingcheng felt it, just now how uncomfortable Lu Wei was when he called his name just now, until he felt the slight moisture on the back of his hand, he couldn't hold back anymore, and opened his arms towards Lu Wei to encircle him, very hard.

"Brother Wei, I'm sorry." He kissed the back of Wei Lu's hand, choked up and said, "I scared you, I'm sorry..."

Then he felt himself being embraced by Wei Lu very hard, that strength seemed to want to embed him in his body without separating, but his powerful arms were trembling.

Lu Wei felt the truth when he smelled the familiar scent of the person in his arms. He held Xia Xingcheng's face against his forehead.

Each other's choked gasps echoed in their ears.

He met Xia Xingcheng's eyes, and the moment their eyes met, the two of them seemed to be one step closer in each other's lives. Whenever they were in the most precarious moment, it was always each other, and only each other.

"Xia Xingcheng, don't scare me anymore, I will be fine only if you are healthy, you understand?"

Xia Xingcheng blamed himself very much when he heard Lu Wei's choked voice, he moved forward and kissed Lu Wei's lips, cautiously saying, "It won't be like this from now on."

"Are you hungry?"

"Very hungry."

"Then I'll go buy something for you to eat."

After a while, the two still kept this posture and looked at each other like this, not willing to look away for a second.

In the end, the two seemed to react and looked at each other and smiled, then hugged each other tirelessly.

"Brother Wei, let's order takeaway, then you can accompany me without running."

Lu Wei thought the same, so he nodded and gently kissed the back of Xia Xingcheng's hand:

"Okay, I'll be with you."

Now I don't want to separate for a second.

It didn't take long for the takeaway to arrive, and the two had a midnight snack in the hospital.

Xia Xingcheng looked at Lu Wei who was sitting opposite him and suddenly had mixed feelings: "Why do we always eat in the hospital, it's really bad."

Lu Wei picked out the shrimps in the porridge and gave him: "So you have to be safe, don't come to the hospital again, your brother Wei is too old to scare you with many lives." Looking up at him: "Be good, do you know?"

Xia Xingcheng rubbed the back of his head with some doubts: "Then what's wrong with me, I've always been uncomfortable during this time, I accidentally bumped into the closet when I was eavesdropping on Xia Xingche and Jiang Chengyun's talk in the dormitory at noon After that, my eyes went dark, and after watching the movie with them, I chatted with Xia Xingche, and I suddenly felt uncomfortable while chatting, am I really terminally ill?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Lu Wei's dark face, so he hurriedly poohed a few times.

Lu Wei took a deep breath and held back his temper not to scold him: "Do you know that you are not allowed to say such things in the future?"

"...I was wrong." Xia Xingcheng looked at Lu Wei pitifully: "Brother, don't be angry."

"You will act like a baby." Lu Wei continued to pick out the shrimps for him: "I may have to go to the hospital a few times during this period. The congestion in your brain has not been completely cleared. It should be that you were injured in the back of the head last year."

"Ah? What if there is congestion?"

"If you can heal yourself, you don't need surgery. If the area of ​​congestion is getting bigger and bigger, you need surgery." Speaking of this, Lieutenant Lu's expression was a little serious: "I don't want you to go to the point of surgery. From now on, you must protect your head well, don't do strenuous exercise for the time being, just sit quietly, can you do it?"

How dare Xia Xingcheng say no: "Yes, then I'll be fine once I settle down?"

"Well, it will be fine." Lu Wei gently coaxed: "As long as you are obedient."

Xia Xingcheng nodded obediently: "I will be very obedient!"

Seeing that he was so obedient, Lu Wei was so soft-hearted that he hesitated, and after thinking it over, he decided to say: "I passed your medical records including today's to your father."

"Why pass it to him?" Xia Xingcheng stirred the porridge in the bowl with drooping eyes, his eyes dimmed instantly, followed by a feeling of disappointment: "I don't need him to care about it."

"Chengcheng, I told you not to be angry."

"What?" Xia Xingcheng looked up at Wei Lu, why so serious?

Lu Wei said: "I will try my best to prevent him from seeing you, that is, if he wants to see you, it is not so easy, unless you want to see him, otherwise I will not let him approach you."

Xia Xingcheng looked at Wei Lu in shock, as if a little inconceivable: "Wow, so you are already such a domineering president? I really like it!" After finishing speaking, he groaned: "Anyway, I don't want to see him. How can I be happy if I see him?" What a good thing, brother Wei did a good job!"

He raised his hand to give Lu Wei a high five.

Lu Wei grabbed his hand and kissed his palm: "Just don't get angry, I'm afraid that I will make a presumptuous claim and you will be unhappy."

He didn't dare to say another thing he found out, so there's no need to say it, people who are already dead in Xia Xingcheng's heart should die, and if there is anything else that happens, he can deal with it.

"No, it means that I am very important to you."

Lu Wei looked affectionately: "Naturally, you are my life."

Xia Xingcheng was suddenly a little embarrassed: "Hehe, suddenly so emotional." Then he glanced at the bed, his expression froze for two seconds: "Hmm... the bed is too small, why don't we go home?"

"Not yet, I will have an EEG tomorrow morning, and I have to stay tonight."

"Okay then." He said reluctantly, "...the hospital is not very convenient."

Lu Wei saw his little thoughts, and smiled helplessly and indulgently: "You are so young and have so many thoughts?"

"That's because of you too."

After eating supper, the two of them lay on the bed slanted, and slowly fell asleep in each other's embrace, greedily absorbing each other's breath, looking for a sense of security.

the next day--

After the EEG, the two were ready to be discharged from the hospital.

Xia Xingcheng was a little flustered when he saw Xia Xingche's call while he was waiting for Lu Wei to put away his things:

"Oh, oh, it's over, Brother Wei, come and pick it up." Then he put the mobile phone into Lu Wei's hand, begging: "Don't talk about my going to the hospital, it will irritate him, just say I still I'm sleeping, nothing happened."

But he found that Lu Wei was sitting on the edge of the bed looking at him with a blank expression like this. He took his mobile phone, but he didn't answer it.

The ward was so quiet that only the vibrating sound of the mobile phone remained.

"Xia Xingcheng, can you stop being like this all the time?"

Xia Xingcheng knew that Wei Lu was angry when he heard Wei Lu calling his full name, and he thought of waking up in the middle of the night and hearing Wei Wei crying beside him, crying so depressingly and distressingly.

"I'm sorry." He carefully took the phone back, not daring to make Wei Lu angry again.

So he got out of bed and went to the window to answer the phone.

Lu Wei's eyes fell on Xia Xingcheng's body, looking at his thin figure facing away from him against the dim light of the morning, as if melting into the light, becoming transparent, and disappearing in front of him in the blink of an eye, fear.

He was terrified all night, and it wasn't until Xia Xingcheng opened his eyes that he felt alive, the feeling of falling from heaven to hell, and then back to heaven from hell.He has never been so scared, even when he couldn't find maddog, it hurts more than hurting himself.

Walking behind the boy, he embraced him, wrapped his arms tightly around his shoulders, and then closed his tired eyes, as if only in this way could he calm down.

It is only when I smell the familiar smell that I feel a sense of security in my heart.

"It's okay, my phone was out of battery yesterday, so I went to Lu Wei's house to draw, nothing to do. What are you doing stupid, do I look like someone who can do stupid things? You are more like it. Hmm... a I'll go back to school, I have classes in the afternoon. I'm really fine, why lie to you, I know..."

Xia Xingcheng found an excuse to deal with it, and he was relieved until he hung up the phone, and then he felt himself being hugged in his arms. He turned his head and looked at Wei Lu resting his head on his shoulder, his expression was very tired, and his eyelids were a little blue .

"Brother Wei."

"Yes." Lu Wei replied without opening his eyes.

"You didn't sleep well, did you?" he asked softly.

"I'm very scared." Lu Wei tightened his arms as if trying to absorb the sense of existence, and then he opened his eyes and turned his head to look at Xia Xingcheng: "Don't always think about other people's feelings, but think about yourself, okay? You think that I will be worried that I will never tell me about you, and you think that Xia Xingche will be afraid of being stimulated. What about yourself, don't you have to think about yourself? You know what I was thinking when you fell down , I thought you were dead, and my first thought was that I would die with you."

Xia Xingcheng heard the trembling in Lu Wei's voice, and kissed his lips apologetically: "I'm sorry, I won't do this next time."

"Dare to have a next time?!"

Xia Xingcheng was so scared that he looked away: "Don't dare."

Lu Wei turned his body to face himself, leaned over slightly with his hands on his shoulders, and looked straight at him: "Chengcheng, you have to be obedient and see a doctor carefully. If you feel uncomfortable, you must tell me. I won't If you don’t answer your calls, you can call me anytime and anywhere, and you must not take your mobile phone or run out of electricity, you know?”

What he was most afraid of was not finding Xia Xingcheng suddenly.

At this moment, he felt the phone vibrate in his trouser pocket.

"Come on, I'm calling you."

He saw Xia Xingcheng's smiling eyes with a bit of slyness, so he took out his phone and connected the call.

The two just looked at each other and called each other, and they didn't feel naive.

"Hello, Brother Wei."

"Ah."

"Do you have time right now?"

"Have."

"What are you doing? Are you really free?" Xia Xingcheng stretched out his hand and pulled the clothes in front of Wei Lu and raised his eyes to look at him with a smile in his eyes: "Why did I hear there is someone over there?"

Wei Lu felt that this guy's hands started to be irregular again, and the brows between his deep brows were slightly twitched, as if he was holding back something:

"Just a cat."

Xia Xingcheng frowned: "A cat? I'm a cat?" After hanging up the phone, he hooked Lu Wei's neck rudely: "I'm a cat?!"

Lu Wei looked at him with a half-smile while holding his back: "It's not a cat, it's so clingy and even bites."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xia Xingcheng bit his chest hard, caught off guard, his eyes darkened.

Just when he was about to say something, Xia Xingcheng hugged him tightly.

"Brother Wei, I won't be blind, I will definitely protect myself." Xia Xingcheng looked up at Wei Lu with light in his eyes, he wanted to keep looking at Wei Lu and drawing, how could he be blind.

"No." Lu Wei touched the back of his head distressedly: "Be careful not to knock your head, this place is very fragile, yours is even more fragile, if you get hurt again, you may have to open your head, you know? ?”

As soon as Xia Xingcheng heard about the craniotomy, he immediately calmed down, and quickly nodded in response, saying that he must be safe.

"Go to the hospital a few more times during this period, and take medicine for conservative treatment first. As long as you are obedient, you will be fine." Lu Wei's hand is still stroking the back of his head, as if stroking a precious baby: "No need to be hospitalized, But be careful at school, you can’t look at your phone while walking, and you can’t look at your phone when you go downstairs…”

Then the endless chatter began.

Lu Wei looked at Xia Xingcheng who was acting coquettishly with him with a smiling face, and thought that he would rather be a villain and be complained by Xia Xingcheng than let those people show up again.

Call him selfish or say anything, he just tried his best to treat Xia Xingcheng well.

I just want Xia Xingcheng to be well.
