rumor

If Jiang had heard about it, he didn't take it to heart.

I just recalled that Xi Yufeng never mentioned his father, but Aunt Fang did mention it twice, saying that this master knew that Xi Wangchen was useless and spared no effort to lead him to the "right path".

It can be seen that this master is eccentric, Xi Yufeng is so good, he doesn't pay attention to it, Xi Wangchen is such a waste, but he holds it in the palm of his hand, just because Xi Yufeng is easy to bully without his mother's protection.

Jiang Ruo started to feel aggrieved unconsciously, and when he made a video call to An He, he still pulled his face.

The two looked at each other through the screen for a while, and it was An He who couldn't hold back: "Brother, are you... angry?"

Jiang Ruo snorted coldly: "You ran away from home because of a man, why should I be angry?"

An He scratched his head: "It's not considered running away from home. Didn't I leave a note for you? And you can contact me at any time..."

Jiang Ruo rolled his eyes: "Then I have to thank you for keeping in touch with me."

"Actually, I planned to turn off the phone directly," An He looked at Jiang Ruo's unkind expression, and whispered, "I was afraid you would call the police..."

"I will indeed call the police, if the call doesn't go through." Jiang Ruo was bombarded with news as soon as he returned to Fengcheng, and now he was relieved and sat down on the sofa, "Tell me, what's going on, that Meng Are you getting married too?"

An He lowered his eyes: "It seemed like...but then it didn't work out."

"Then what are you running to prepare in advance?"

"Just, I've had enough of staying in big cities, and I want to breathe the fresh air of the countryside."

"Are you at home?"

"Yeah." An He held up a handful of seeds in his hand, "It's spring plowing, wait until summer, I invite you to eat big and sweet watermelon."

"Don't change the subject." Jiang Ruo shouted, "What's the matter? You were not right during the Spring Festival."

Raising his hand to press down on the brim of the straw hat, An He muttered, "It's nothing, I just think it's better to fulfill him than to wait for an unknown result."

Jiang Ruo sighed: "Can you tell me something I can understand?"

To a certain extent, An He and Jiang Ruo have similar personalities, they are both strong when they are strong, and weak when they are weak.

So the more Jiang Ruo pressed, the more An He stubbornly refused to speak out. Covering the camera, he said that the signal in the countryside was not good, and that he should go to work on the farm. At the end, he did not forget to remind Jiang Ruo not to tell others his whereabouts. Hang up the video.

Call again, just don't answer.

Jiang Ruo was so angry that he almost bought a ticket to go to Anhe's hometown, and caught him and asked him for clarification.

This side is not smooth, and there is a knock on the door.

After asking twice, no one answered. Jiang Ruo, who has been paying attention to personal safety since he was kidnapped last time, tiptoed to the door and looked out through the cat's eye.

Then he opened the door a crack with doubts, and asked the people standing outside: "Why are you here?"

Meng Chao didn't answer, raised his hand and pushed the door, squeezed in sideways, walked around the living room and kitchen, then strode towards the room.

"Hey, who told you to come in?" Jiang Ruo hurriedly followed, "Stop! If you go further in, I'll call the police!"

The house is not big, so I searched it quickly.Meng Chao reluctantly went back to the room where An He lived, opened the closet, bent down to look under the bed, turned over even the underside of the table, his face was more gloomy when he stood up straight than when he entered the door.

"What about others?"

"Who?"

"Anhe."

Jiang Ruo snorted, "I still want to ask you, where did you hide him?"

Meng Chao looked at Jiang Ruo, as if he wanted to judge whether he was lying from his expression.Jiang Ruo also stared back at him, looking confident and unafraid.

The two stared at each other for a long time, Meng Chao was defeated first, took a deep breath, and asked, "Anhe, hasn't he come back?"

"No." Jiang Ruo said, "He moved all his things to your place, why are you still here?"

"Then did he contact you?"

Thinking of An He's advice, Jiang Ruo said, "I should ask you this."

Meng Chao pursed his lips and stopped talking.

Jiang Ruo asked: "What's the matter with you two, what happened?"

As if he didn't listen, Meng Chao looked at the almanac on the wall of An He's room, with a helpless and depressed expression on his expression.

He ignored Jiang Ruo's question, turned around silently, and walked outside.

He stopped when he was approaching the door, turned to Jiang Ruo and said, "Send me your card number."

Jiang Ruo didn't ask anything, and was already very irritable: "Why do you want a card number, send me money?"

Meng Chao said "Yes" and said, "30 is the cost of An He's heart surgery."

Jiang Ruo felt annoyed that he was the only one kept in the dark, and his tone was not very polite: "Didn't you say it, this is between me and An He, it has nothing to do with you."

"It has nothing to do with me?" Meng Chao suddenly smiled, "He's my younger brother."

The corner of Jiang Ruo's mouth twitched: "I know that you two have an interest in calling each other brothers in private, but there's no need to—"

"Didn't he tell you?" Meng Chao interrupted him, "You two have such a good relationship, did he really tell you nothing?"

Jiang Ruo's heart skipped a beat: "Tell me what?"

Meng Chao turned around, his eyes were deep, his usual cynicism was completely restrained.

The voice was also heavy: "Tell you, his original name is Meng Ze."

"He is the true young master of the Meng family living outside, and also my... legal brother."

In May, Fengcheng is already entering summer, and the sun is shining at noon, and many passers-by have already put up parasols.

In contrast, the corridors of the hospital are too deserted, occasionally visitors come and go, their steps are very light, and their voices are deliberately lowered, lest they disturb the patients who are resting here.

In the single ward on the top floor, Xi Yufeng was sitting on the sofa outside, with a laptop on his lap, his right elbow resting on the armrest, and his left hand sliding on the touchpad, as if he was processing documents.

Shi Mingxu called and said that several senior executives of the company were coming to the hospital to see Xi Chengli. Xi Yufeng said, "Let them come. But let me remind you in advance that Mr. Xi is still awake. Even if he comes with documents, no one will come." Sign them."

Shi Mingxu agreed.

Putting down the phone, it didn't take long before there was a faint noise outside.

"I can't even come to see my husband? Have you been bribed by that little bastard, Xi Yufeng? Get out of the way, let me in!"

Xi Yufeng raised his hand and pinched the center of his eyebrows, put the notebook on the low table in front of him, got up and walked to the door.

When the door opened, it was facing Xiao Yin who was about to kick the door with her chest out and her hips on her hips.Xi Yufeng frowned slightly, and asked, "What are you arguing about?"

The nurse next to him who was in charge of registering visitors said helplessly, "This lady said she wanted to come in to see Mr. Xi, but I didn't stop her..."

"Mr. Xi?" Xiao Yin's eyes widened, "The Mr. Xi you mentioned is my legal husband, why stop me from seeing it?"

The sharp voice was infinitely amplified in the empty corridor, and someone from the next ward had already leaned out to see what was going on.

Xi Yufeng said in a deep voice: "Your legal husband has just been transferred from the ICU to the general ward. If you want him to die sooner, you can yell loudly."

After hearing this, Xiao Yin closed her mouth, and stared fiercely at Xi Yufeng, as if she wanted to peel him and cramp him.

After entering the ward, he changed into a miserable and weak face.Holding Xi Chengli's hand with the infusion needle, Xiao Yin cried: "Why is my life so hard, I finally hoped that my son would come home and you would be in the hospital again.

"You said that the big truck really didn't have eyes, or did it come at you blatantly? There are so many cars around, why did it hit the one you were sitting in?

"Wake up quickly, and send someone to investigate this matter carefully. I really have no power to intervene! The world is dangerous, and people's hearts are unpredictable. Our mother and I can't do without you!"

…………

Xi Yufeng sat down at his original place outside, listening to Xiao Yin's meaningful mourning, the corners of his lips twitched, revealing a mocking smile.

After sending the crazy woman away, Xi Yufeng went to the front desk on this floor to check the list of visitors for the past few days, and told the nurse that anyone who wanted to visit had to get his consent.

Going back and passing the stairwell, I saw a person with his back against the wall, who seemed to have been standing there for a while.

Meng Chao smiled thinly: "Then if I want to visit, do I have to get Mr. Xi's approval?"

The two went to the common room on this floor to talk.

"I was too lazy to take this trip." Meng Chao said, "The whole family is in trouble, and I really can't stay."

After pondering for a moment, Xi Yufeng said, "Sorry."

"Hey, I can't bear it. I'd better save this to Meng Lan. She has such a bad temper. These days, she almost smashed everything in the house."

"You can live with me."

"You leave the door open for me that night."

"Ah."

After being quiet for a while, Meng Chao asked, "By the way, uncle's car accident really has nothing to do with you?"

Xi Yufeng raised his eyes and looked at it meaninglessly. Meng Chao immediately froze: "I'll just ask. Isn't it just that I don't want to get married? I don't want to take risks to do this."

Then he asked again: "It's all over, there shouldn't be anyone in your group who can compete with you, right?"

"Not necessarily." Xi Yufeng said, "If they unite, they should not be underestimated."

Meng Chao nodded: "No wonder you want to stay here. Whoever gets Uncle's support first at this time will be more favorable in terms of the situation."

The two talked for a while about business.

In short, the cooperation project between Xi's family and Meng's family is still advancing, and no one will have trouble with money.

When sending people out, Meng Chao said, "By the way, I saw your big star today."

Xi Yufeng was startled: "Where is it?"

"His residence." Meng Chao said, "I'll go find An He and return the 30 to him by the way."

"30?"

"Well, An He had heart surgery last year, and the money was paid by your big star."

Last year... Xi Yufeng frowned, as if thinking of something.

"But he confiscated it, because—" Meng Chao said he was stuck, laughed, and said, "Forget it, let's talk about it later, you have enough chaos here."

Back in the ward, Xi Yufeng rarely had time to stay for a while.

It's not just a simple daze, many scenes flashed back in my head.

From the first meeting with Jiang Ruo, the night of ecstasy under the influence of the medicine, and the subsequent interview, Jiang Ruo had an almost embarrassing expression when he heard that he deserved the 30 yuan.

There is also the way Jiang Ruo bent her lips and smiled, the way she was sad and crying but refused to let him see it, the way she was panting while dancing but was extremely happy, the way she hugged him in a daze on the bed and said she wanted more... …

Maybe it's because we haven't seen each other for a long time. As soon as I heard about him, the memories flooded out, and I couldn't stop it.

After sitting for a while, Xi Yufeng got up, intending to wash his face, when he heard a slight movement from the direction of the hospital bed.

Going around into the room and walking to the bed, Xi Chengli, who had been in a coma for more than half a month, had trembling eyelids, opened his eyes slowly, and woke up.

Taking a look at the monitor next to him, everything was normal, Xi Yufeng didn't call the doctor immediately, but picked up the kettle beside the bed and poured water into the glass.

After pouring half a glass of warm water, he held up the glass and asked the person lying on the bed, "Drink?"

Xi Chengli was still wearing an oxygen mask, his lips parted and his chest rose and fell.

He stared at Xi Yufeng with helpless fear in his eyes.

Seeing his reaction, Xi Yufeng found it funny: "You don't even think that this car accident is my fault, do you?"

He drank the water slowly, and the empty glass made a crisp sound when it hit the table.

Xi Chengli breathed a sigh of relief during this time, his voice was muffled through the oxygen mask, and Xi Yufeng had to move closer to hear him clearly.

People who have been in a serious car accident and the first thing they say when they wake up are "don't hurt your brother".

The color of the pupils suddenly darkened, like dark clouds gathering.Xi Yufeng straightened his back and said coldly, "Why don't I remember, I have a younger brother?"

Breathing seemed to be a little short, Xi Chengli tried his best to say, "You... what do you want?"

I thought I had to do Tai Chi in circles, but I didn't expect the old man to be so impatient.

To save time, Xi Yufeng took out a few pieces of paper from the drawer beside the bed: "I'm not married, so there's no need for this agreement."

Xi Chengli was panting heavily, his eyes showed a bit of hesitation, as if he was wondering - he went to all lengths just to not get married?

He even began to suspect that his guess was wrong, that the car accident might really have been an accident.

But at this moment, Xi Yufeng has no time to care about what he is thinking.

"I will explain to the Meng family. You just need to sign and agree to cancel this marriage."

I just want him back with me.
