Chapter 27 Natural Disaster

Xi Mu not only intends to expand the scale, but also decided to invest in several different types of base clubs.He considered many factors: the game is played indoors, it is not affected by the weather, the liquidity is relatively sufficient, and there is currently no offline game of the same scale, and competitors are not a problem.

He didn't inform Xi Qin, nor did he deliberately hide it.Xi Mu always wanted to take this opportunity to get [-]% back, to prove to Mr. Xi that he was no worse than Xi Qin.

Xi Qin is the chairman of EAST Group, so naturally she can't hide anything from her. She just sneered at this and had no other reaction.

Xi Mu has always been adhering to the principle of seeking wealth and risk, so this investment, he also unequivocally poured money into it, sitting at home with confidence and waiting to collect the money.

But who would have thought that man-made disasters can be avoided, but natural disasters are powerless.

In early July, an unknown flu imported from Southeast Asia quickly swept across the country. This flu has a low mortality rate and is highly contagious. Tens of thousands of people were infected in just a few days.Its symptoms are the same as those of the common cold, but it affects human body functions, makes people listless and reduces work efficiency.

The state has issued relevant policies to convene people to isolate at home to block the source of infection in order to achieve the purpose of controlling the speed of transmission.

Several game clubs invested by Xi Mu lost all their money, and the newly built base was deserted before it was completed. Even the game experience hall under Xi's family had to close down.

He seemed to have aged ten years overnight, sitting at home every day staring at the gray sky outside the window in a daze.

On the fourth day of isolation, Xi Mu received a call from Xi Qin.

"Well, did you find out where you went wrong?"

Xi Mu didn't say a word, he no longer had the strength to please this unfriendly sister.

"Have you carefully written the capital increase plan and feasibility analysis report? Have you done the risk assessment carefully?"

"Just because I play doesn't mean I don't do anything. I can use my left and right arms to do things for me, can you do it? You don't even have a trustworthy assistant around you?

"If you are not capable enough, don't think about setting up your own business or pushing me down all day long. Even if this seat is given to you, the people below will scold you for being unworthy."

Xi Mu's face became more and more gloomy, his fingers couldn't help tightening, and his joints turned pale.

"This time, I will spend money to teach you a lesson. Don't let me down next time, my good brother."

After hanging up the phone, Xi Mu smashed the phone expressionlessly.

The prohibition of going out has little effect on Xi Qingxi, and he himself is not as fun-loving as the rich second generation, so staying at home and not having to go to the company to face Xi Qin is great news to him.

Fang Ruogu's situation was different from his. His career had just started, and he was supposed to take advantage of the victory to chase after him. Unexpectedly, the flu broke out at the stall, and this bright road was turned off before he took two steps.

Xi Qingxi comforted him perfunctorily: "What are you panicking, everyone is homeless during this time."

Fang Ruogu buried his head in the pillow resentfully: "Am I really not suitable for being in the entertainment industry? The whole beauty is miserable."

Xi Qingxi cast a sidelong glance at him: "Meiqiang is miserable, you can at most take advantage of it."

Fang Ruogu waved his fist at him indignantly, vaguely saw Xi Qingxi's crescent-shaped scar covered by his forehead hair, and asked in a low voice: "Your scar..."

Suddenly he felt inappropriate, and quickly changed his words: "Of course, if you don't want to say it, you don't have to. Although I'm curious, it's your privacy after all, and you are my benefactor. Everything depends on your mood." After a paragraph of words, The atmosphere is not breathless.

Xi Qingxi stared at him amusedly, the light coffee-colored pupils reflected the dim light outside the window, it was radiant and beautiful, Fang Ruogu's heart skipped half a beat when he stared blankly.

"It was my dad."

Perhaps it was because the quarantine period was too boring, or maybe it was because he had held this matter in his mind for too long, or because Fang Ruogu's expression was too focused and serious, Xi Qingxi told all about his childhood experiences.

After finishing speaking, Fang Ruogu didn't speak for a long time, his head was lowered and he couldn't see the expression on his face.

Xi Qingxi was about to go to the bedroom to rest, when suddenly his wrist was grabbed, he turned his head puzzled, and froze on the spot.Rao Xi Qingxi, who usually does everything with a calm mind, is also a little at a loss at this time.

Oddly enough, this wasn't the first time someone had cried in front of him, but it was the first time he'd felt overwhelmed.

In Xi Qingxi's impression, Fang Ruogu has always been like the sun, and there is no negative emotion in his dictionary.Even if there is, it is all a matter of sub-personality.

He never thought that Fang Ruogu would cry for him.

"I'm sorry." Fang Ruogu wiped away tears indiscriminately, his eyes flushed, "I should have thought that since it's a scar, its origin must not be very pleasant."

Xi Qingxi felt a dull pain in his temple, and said calmly: "It's okay, it's over."

Hearing this, Fang Ruogu's expression became even more uncomfortable. He hugged Xi Qingxi tightly, and kept murmuring "I'm sorry", with such force that he couldn't break free.

Xi Qingxi had mixed feelings in his heart, he couldn't understand Fang Ruogu's sky-falling reaction, just like he couldn't understand those poor people who were looking for death and life for their other half.

He seems to be born with something missing, which makes his perception of emotions and desires very slow.

"It's all over." Xi Qingxi didn't know how to respond, so she had to repeat it again.

Fang Ruogu's eyes were covered with red blood, and there were still teardrops on his eyelashes. He raised the corners of his mouth as if comforting: "I usually cry a lot, but today I couldn't hold it back for some reason."

"Go and wash your face, dinner is ready."

……

After a simple dinner, the two nestled into the sofa again, surfing the Internet bored.

The scandal about Fang Ruogu has been overturned, and now Weibo is no longer occupied by artists in their daily lives. After all, people are most concerned about the flu.

The flu is coming fiercely, and the cause is unknown, but the country is fairly stable, and people stay at home obediently and don't go anywhere.However, foreign countries have overturned the pot, some took advantage of the chaos to loot, some demonstrated, and a shooting incident occurred in one of the countries.

After watching the news for a while, Xi Qingxi stood up, followed by Fang Ruogu's voice: "What's wrong?"

"I take a shower, you want to come together?"

"It's not impossible."

Xi Qingxi frowned: "Can you be normal."

Fang Ruogu opened his mouth and said, "I just realized that your illness was caused by childhood experiences, which can only be suppressed but not eradicated."

So do you often think about suicide now?

He dared not ask.

Xi Qingxi shrugged indifferently: "Then let's not eradicate it, that's fine, I don't want to die all the time."

When they first met, Xi Qingxi told him like this.With the deepening of the relationship, Fang Ruogu became more and more worried about this happening.

Xi Qingxi seems to be fine, but he cuts off his connection with the world all the time.

He has no hobbies, no desires, no lovers, relatives, or friends.He wandered numbly among the red flowers and green leaves in order to feel the existence of this body.Like a wisp of illusory mist, it finally dissipates silently in the sun.
