Beasts contend

"You don't know that, do you?" The older woman crossed her legs and gossiped to the newcomer, "Mr. Fan hates people mentioning Mr. Zhang the most."

Rumors seem to have grown wings, spreading wildly among the new employees.Soon, everyone knew how excellent the former "Vice President Zhang" was.Zhang Qing, the stepson of the Fan family, was once the most promising person to inherit the Fan family.Zhang Qing died in a car accident five years ago, and was replaced by Fan Dong, the youngest son of the Fan family who gave up his studies and came back to inherit the family business.

The arrival of this paratrooper made many people suspect that Zhang Qing's accident was related to him.

There has never been a lot of intrigues and infighting in this kind of family.

What's more, Fan Dong and Zhang Qing have always been at odds, and many media have photographed them arguing on various occasions.It's the same in public, so how can it be better in private?

The two "brothers" are enemies rather than friends.

"Boss Fan!"

The moment Fan Dong stepped into Fan's family, all conversations turned into the same greeting.Fan Dong smiled at them kindly, but there was not much smile in his beautiful eyes. Those who met his gaze felt a chill down their spines, and hurriedly sat back to their seats and got busy.

Pretend to be busy even if you are not busy.

Fan Dong is only 25 years old, not the age to convince the public, but he is very cunning. After taking over Fan's business, he wiped out several rival companies without any power to fight back, and soon merged them into part of Fan's.And Fan's internal affairs have experienced a big cleansing. Those who are lucky enough to "survive" have lingering fears when they mention the bloody storm of those two years.

Fan Dong strolled into his office as if he didn't notice the panic of everyone.Fan's biggest rival just declared bankruptcy yesterday. He spent five years waiting for this day, and he has never paid such concentration even for his favorite medicine.

Still, it's all worth it.

Fan Dong sat in his seat, opened the top drawer, and put the upside-down group photo back on the table.There are two teenagers in the photo, one is taller and has a stern expression; the other is himself.The two of them obviously didn't cooperate well when they took pictures, they were forced to be together, and their eyes were turned to one side, as if they were bored even looking at each other more.

Fan Dong's eyes stayed on the stern young man's face for a moment, then he suddenly laughed, and sighed, "Even if you send them all to be shot, you won't come back, it's really boring."

Really boring.

Fan Dong called Fan's father and asked Fan's father to come back from vacation and take over the Fan family again.Although he has long been comfortable with Fan's operations, he doesn't like this kind of life.People can't always live for the past, avenged Zhang Qing, he should return to the career he loves.

Even if some people will be absent from their lives forever, the living still have to live well, don't they?

What's more, their relationship has never been very good.

Ever since they were young, Fan Dong and Zhang Qing couldn't get along.When they met for the first time, Fan Dong didn't even look at Zhang Qing. After that, there was a very long "frozen period" between them, and no one paid attention to the other.Later, under the mediation of their stepmother, they reluctantly "shake hands and make peace".Even so, Fan Dong was still very dissatisfied with this stepbrother who appeared in his home out of thin air.

Of course, Zhang Qing is also extremely displeased with Fan Dong's pampered "brother".

When the two brothers met, they pinched each other.

A pinch is more than ten years.

Fan Dong hung up the phone and turned the group photo on the table upside down.

To be so disturbing even after death is indeed the most hated person in his life.

The handover went smoothly.

The stepmother seemed to have recovered from the pain of losing her son. When she saw Fan Dong, she asked many questions with concern.Fan Dong couldn't bear to be cold towards this kind and gentle woman, so he answered them one by one with a smile.

Nothing is easy.

Fan Dong didn't plan to rest, he was about to start a new life of his own.

Fan Dong called his teacher, officially finalized the comeback date, and immediately asked someone to book a ticket for him on that day.

Fan Dong turned his eyes and looked out the window.

It's spring outside, the sun is shining, and the weather is really nice.In the past, Zhang Qing would always drag him to rock climbing at this time. What's the point of that kind of barbaric, vulgar, meaningless exercise...

I really don't understand.

Father Fan knocked on the door and walked in slowly.

Their father and son never liked redundant communication.Father Fan said straight to the point: "I know that all you have done in the past few years is to avenge Zhang Qing. Now that the revenge is over, what are you going to do?"

Fan Dong said: "My life plan was set when I was 15 years old, and there is probably no possibility of changing it in the future. Although there was a deviation of five years in the middle, I will bring everything back on track."

Father Fan said, "Really?"

Fan Dong said, "Really."

Father Fan clasped his hands, and his sharp gaze swept over Fan Dong's face: "With your ability, you shouldn't be able to control even the gossip in the company. Why don't you care?"

Fan Dong smiled, and said nonchalantly: "It's not good if the atmosphere in the company is too serious. It's fine to get the business done. Why should you control other things too strictly?"

Father Fan looked at him seriously.

Fan Dong looked at Father Fan seriously.

Fan's father said: "'You can say whatever you want, as long as someone mentions him.'" He looked at Fan Dong seriously, "Is that what you think? When a person leaves this world, everything related to him will disappear." It will fade away day by day. Although Zhang Qing's mother can't accept it, five years have calmed her down. Only you have never let go."

Fan Dong seemed to hear something surprising, and his eyebrows were a little mocking: "How is it possible? It's not like you don't know that I quarrel with him when we meet." He said convincingly, "I annoy him the most. gone."

Fan's father looked worried.

Fan Dong said: "I have already called the teacher, and soon I will participate in a group of clinical trial projects for new drugs, and then I will fly to Europe with the teacher to attend a half-month medical conference. After the end, there will be more things waiting for me." After reading his full schedule, he raised his head and assured his father, "Dad, don't worry, I will be fine."

Father Fan fell silent.

Fan Dong has been stubborn since childhood, no one can cure him.

When he was very young, he declared that he would never take over the Fan family. Later, with Zhang Qing, Fan Dong was even more happy and relaxed.Occasionally, when Fan Dong and Zhang Qing had a fierce quarrel, he would say, "The Fan family will be mine in the future, you just work for me", but the father and son have actually reached a consensus long ago: the Fan family will be handed over to Zhang Qing in the future.

If there hadn't been that accident—if Zhang Qing hadn't died, then Fan Dong would always be the young master of the Fan family, and life would go on like that.The two brothers argue when there is nothing to do, and when there is something to quarrel, it is not harmonious, but it is quite enjoyable.

It happened by accident.

In this world, there is no such person as Zhang Qing anymore.

After Zhang Qing's accident, Fan Dong acted the calmest and calmest.

He used all his connections to track down the truth of the car accident.

That wasn't an accident, it was murder.

All the evidence points to the Zhang family, Fan's biggest competitor at the time.The Zhang family went ashore for nothing in the early years, but up to now they are still filthy on the outside and dirty on the inside.At that time, Zhang Qing was too sharp, and the means and ambitions he showed made the opponent feel a great threat, so the opponent resorted to this kind of indiscriminate trick.

What is even more chilling is that the Fan family was involved in this man-made accident.Seeing that Zhang Qing is getting more and more respected by a few pious good-for-nothings in the family, Fan's family may fall into the hands of "outsiders", how can they hold their breath?Others would lure them over with a few words, and desperately found someone to tamper with Zhang Qing's car.

Just for such a small benefit, a person's life was killed.

When the accident happened, Fan Dong was the first to arrive at the scene.

As a doctor-to-be, he could only watch Zhang Qing's life pass before his eyes.

Zhang Qing didn't even have time to talk to him.

At the scene of the car accident, the police found the pocket watch he gave Zhang Qing when he was ten years old, and it fell out of Zhang Qing's suit pocket.

The photo in the pocket watch was changed by Zhang Qing at some point.

——It was a group photo of them.

No one knows what happened between their "brothers" except themselves.

They never opened their mouths to say something similar to a confession or a promise to each other.

But the relationship between them has long been stronger than blood relatives.

Fan Dong finished his conversation with Fan's father, packed his things and headed to the airport.

While waiting for the plane, Fan Dong took out the old pocket watch from his pocket, leaned on the back of the chair, opened it gently, and stared at it motionlessly.

There is a crack on the surface, but the pointer is still ticking.

His eyes moved to the photo.

After a while, Fan Dong let out a breath like a sigh.

There was a bitter smile on his face: "You thought you were hiding it well, but it turned out that Dad knew about it a long time ago. Look at you, you can't do anything well..."

With a snap, the pocket watch closed.

Fan Dong closed his eyes, forcing himself to calm down his turbulent mood.

Soon, it's boarding time.

Fan Dong glanced back, then turned and walked towards the entrance.

Goodbye to the past.

Goodbye, Zhang Qing.

That night, Fan's father and his wife were preparing to eat, but unexpectedly received a notification call from the airport.

The flight that took off in the afternoon had an accident over the Pacific Ocean.

Fan Dong is on top.
