A cooperation between Sanjiang Group and Shadow Society was ruined by the Gambino family in Europe. Now the dark forces in the whole of Europe are united as one, constantly testing the bottom line of Sanjiang and Shadow Society. If Shadow Society and Sanjiang join forces, it will inevitably squeeze their business. Moreover, Sanjiang's working style is very different from theirs, and they do not accept the rules of the game in their own market. They can only test their bottom line and force Gu Zhen and Jiang Zongnan to retreat. Their market is already in Asia, so it is best not to interfere with each other.

Gu Zhen called Jiang Zongnan and asked him to handle it. He happened to be in Europe, so he had to talk to the people from the Shadow Society about the matter and resolve it completely with their help.

"You've been in France for three days. Have you seen Wen Han?"

"No."

Gu Zhen was silent. He was obviously not good at comforting people. After a long while, he said, "Come on."

"Bye!"

Gu Zhen, "..."

Europe, France.

Jiang Zongnian was sneaked away by the Shadow Society for three days. He came to the Shadow Society as soon as he landed in France to find Wen Han. Fang Cheng, the captain of the Shadow Corps, received him. He was a Chinese-French mixed-race, with black hair, deep facial features, and a height of nearly 1.9 meters. He looked like a melancholy prince, but his temper was quite hot.

"The vice president is on vacation."

"Where did you go on vacation?"

"do not know!"

"I came here specially to discuss business with your Vice President Wen. He avoided me because of your Shadow Society's way of hospitality. If he is not sincere in cooperating, we can just go our separate ways." Jiang Zongnan was never a person who got angry, let alone a person who got angry. However, he obviously lost his sense of propriety and said such angry words.

"You broke into our headquarters alone and almost injured our people. You were quite arrogant. You don't want to cooperate and want to part ways. Are you sure?"

"Sure!" Jiang Zongnan refused to budge.

Fang Cheng cursed in his heart and gave Jiang Zongnan an address. The place where Wen Han was on vacation was not far away, just in the suburbs not far from the main city. Fang Cheng said that when Wen Han was in a bad mood, he would go to the town to stay for a few days.

Jiang Zongnian drove to the town that night. It took him just over an hour to get there. It was already midnight when he arrived. He was disappointed again. When he got on the phone, he lazily said, "Oh, sorry, President Jiang. Vice President Wen is out visiting friends. He won't be back for two days."

"Give me his phone number."

"That won't work. The president's phone number is private. We have no right to give it to an outsider."

"Then please convey my request."

"Oh...okay."

Jiang Zongnan had never been treated so coldly in his life, but he had to endure it. He thought of the barren mountain twenty years ago, and the heart-wrenching feeling came over him again.

He thought over and over again in self-torture about how he had abandoned little Jian Yuxing.

It was a sunny day. Secretary Jiang that year, not yet Secretary Jiang but a leader of the Jiangcheng Municipal Committee, was away on business with Mrs. Jiang, leaving only Jiang Zongnan and Jian Yuxing at home.

Jiang Zongnian was born in a military and political family. He was a ruffian. He was the leader of the children since he was young. All the children in the family compound revolved around him. He was very domineering and arrogant. But he was good at disguising himself. Especially after his mother passed away, he heard too much gossip and his father's romantic gossip. The eight-year-old Jiang Zongnian was already very good at disguising himself, and gradually became the calm and steady person he is today.

Jian Yuxing obviously liked his brother very much. He always called him "brother" and was very affectionate. In front of Secretary Jiang and Mrs. Jiang, he was very nice to Jian Yuxing and was a very standard good brother. They went to school together, ate together, and occasionally told Jian Yuxing stories before bed.

Only when Secretary Jiang was at home, he was a bad person in front of others and behind others, but he was extremely bad to Jian Yuxing in private, deliberately instigating his childhood friends to bully him, using cold violence against him, deliberately threatening him, and deliberately breaking his legs. He did too many bad things to Jian Yuxing, and each of them tortured him after he was moved, and he regretted it.

But Jian Yuxing is a fool. The five-year-old child cannot see through his brother's malice, nor does he know how annoying his brother is. He dresses himself up neatly every day and follows his brother like a tail. He brings water when his brother plays ball, brings towels when his brother swims, and waits obediently and quietly without making any noise or fuss. Even if his parents make him cry on purpose several times, Jian Yuxing never complains to his parents. Five-year-old children will complain to their parents when they are bullied. It's their nature. Jian Yuxing always says good things about his brother sweetly in front of his parents. He is also good at observing people's words and expressions. He knows that his brother doesn't like him to call Secretary Jiang "Dad", so he never does, only calls him "Uncle".

Secretary Jiang and Mrs. Jiang both thought that the two brothers were very friendly and respectful to each other, so they were not worried that the elder brother would bully the younger brother when they went out together. They just asked the nanny at home to take good care of them.

The nanny had to go shopping for groceries that day, and Jiang Zongnan told the nanny that he wanted to take his younger brother out for an outing. The nanny did not suspect anything, and Jian Yuxing wore his turtle-shaped backpack and happily got on the bus with his brother.

They took the bus for an hour and arrived at the terminal, which happened to be the South Bus Station. Jiang Zongnan took Jian Yuxing to buy tickets for a long-distance bus to the neighboring town. The bus drove for two hours. It was the first stop on the long journey. He took Jian Yuxing off the bus and took a taxi to the barren mountain. It was Jian Yuxing's first time to travel alone with his brother. He was very happy and excited all the way. He chattered and was not sleepy at all. In the town, he even asked his brother if he could buy a ticket.

Jiang Zongnian bought him one and took him to climb the mountain. It was a barren mountain with few people. Not many people climbed the mountain. There was a road that was often driven by cars because some people would come to camp on weekends. Jiang Zongnian led Jian Yuxing to stumble in the mountain. The mountain was very large and desolate.

Jian Yuxing gradually became a little scared and started grabbing his brother's sleeve.

"Brother, I'm a little scared." Jian Yuxing asked, "What are we doing in the mountains?"

"Don't you like rabbits? Let's catch some rabbits."

"Okay, okay, let's catch rabbits."

However, they walked for a long, long time, and Jian Yuxing had lost his way. Jiang Zongnian fell several times and broke his knee. Jian Yuxing was very distressed, "Brother, I don't want the rabbit anymore, let's go home."

"You like rabbits so much, why don't you want them?"

"Brother fell down, it hurts." Jian Yuxing said firmly, "I don't want the rabbit anymore."

In his little world, his brother is the most important person.

But his brother left him in that desolate mountain.
