The river is exhausted

Jiang Yousi didn't know until he met Yu Nian, seven or eight years later.Finally met this old friend too, but the years had carved them into such a state that they could barely recognize each other.The moment Yu Nian saw Jiang Yousi standing in front of him again, he didn't recognize who it was... But the moment he recognized him, he had the illusion that it was a lifetime away.

The long-lost reunion between men actually doesn't need much words, let alone tears, what they need is wine.While drinking, they told each other about their experiences over the years.Yu Nian drank a lot. In front of this old friend, he seemed to have endless worries.

He didn't seem to have changed much, but Jiang Yousi was indeed different from the past.He is not like the person who can joke with you at will, and he is no longer the high-spirited young man in the past.He seemed to be a different person... as if he had become the old Shen Jinjiang.

By the end of Yu Nian's drink, he was completely drunk, but Jiang Yousi was still sober.Yu Nian was finally willing to tell him about Shen Rujiang - before that, he always avoided questions in circles.Yu Nian grabbed his hand and cried until tears flowed down his face.The uneasiness in Jiang Youpan's heart was completely shattered the moment Yu Nian said those words.

Broken into unbelievable shock, broken into heart-piercing pain.

"Irie is gone." Yu Nian cried drunkenly, "It's my fault, it's all my fault. If it wasn't for me, Irie wouldn't have died. You said it would be better if I died."

"...What does this have to do with you?" Jiang Youpan suppressed the pain in his heart, he poured himself a bottle of wine, and all the calmness he wanted to keep disappeared at this moment.

But Yu Nian was already drunk, and he had nothing to say except "It's all my fault, it's all my fault!" and crying.

Jiang Yousi knew that there was no way to get more information from him at this time, and saw that he was so drunk that he completely lost consciousness.He can only take him back, not going back to Shanghai for too long.He almost forgot a lot of things, he forgot how to go this way, how to go around that way to go fast.

Because the streets of Shanghai have also changed, and these wanderers who have been out for many years can no longer say a word of familiarity.This early spring night still carries a hint of coolness.

In the end, Jiang Yousi had no choice but to take Yu Nian to the hotel, opened a room for him alone, and left first.He wants to know a lot of things, but he always has to make sure that the acquisition of these information is not within the scope of Jin Xiang's surveillance.In fact, he wanted to see Jiang Jingwen more.

He is completely aware of Jiang Jingwen's targeting of Min Yang and his attacks on Huanhao over the years.It was only at this moment that he understood why she acted like that... It could be regarded as an impulsive move.She must know something, if she wants to see Jiang Jingwen, she has to hide out of Jin Xiang's monitoring range.

The scenery on the Bund in Shanghai has been the same for 18 years, and it can be synonymous with prosperity in every era.Jiang Youpan propped his hands on the cold steel railing, the sea water and the thick night merged into a turbidity in the distance, only the luxury cruise ship sailing in the offshore, dotted with the sea water and the night like a luxury.

He recalled things many years ago, at that time.Not long after the night fell after dinner, Jiang Yousi occasionally drove Shen Jinjiang and Ying Xin to the Bund for a walk.

How could he be gone?Jiang Yousi didn't understand at all.If it's true... then what kind of scene did he have when he left?Is there anyone by his side?Where is he buried?And... where did Ying Xin go?

He lit a cigarette and bit it between his lips.The sea breeze was a bit strong, and it made his hair a little messy, and it also made him unable to open his confused eyes.

He casually threw the delicate suit jacket on the public chair behind him, and he rolled up the sleeves of the white shirt to the elbow, revealing a scar that snaked from the forearm to the inside of the shirt.

He finally felt a little tired, the only time in these years.All these years of persistence turned out to be in vain, and Jiang Yousi felt empty and very uncomfortable.It's like everything has been robbed.

He forcefully exhaled a puff of smoke, as if he wanted to spit out all the unspeakable emotions that filled his heart.It's a pity that the effect was rather insignificant... After 10 minutes, he finally got his wish and received a call.

On the other side of the phone was a voice he hadn't heard in seven years, and she might be old too.Because Time never showed mercy to anyone, although her voice was still strong, Jiang Yousi could still hear fatigue.It was a kind of exhaustion that was piled up layer by layer and fermented for a long time.

Jiang Yousi called her for the first time: "Mom."

She heard the sound of the person over there gasping for breath, as if all the strength in her body had been sucked out by that sound.It took her a long time to realize, the trembling voice was full of disbelief, which actually made Jiang Youbo's heart throb for no reason.

I don't think anyone has had an easy life all these years.This was the first conversation between the mother and son after seven years. Jiang Jingwen had been looking for Jiang Yousi for so many years without success, but he never expected that it was himself who contacted him in the end.And he was still alive.

This time the conversation was in a hurry, except for the silence at the beginning, the duration was only two or three minutes, and the content was short and to the point.Jiang Yousi told him about his experiences over the years.

He was first thrown by Jin Xiang to serve in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau for three years.It may be simple to say, but the hardships of the past three years are by no means known to outsiders. Just imagine that at the place thousands of meters above sea level, what you have to endure every day is not only cold and lack of oxygen, but also resisting all these to communicate with nature. struggle.

Several people even died there in the experience under the Himalayas.After three years of hard work, I went directly to the international frontline in the fourth year and served as a peacekeeper for a year.It's only been one year, and it still sounds short.But at that time, Jiang Yousi had already held a mentality that as long as he couldn't die, he would definitely be able to live with all the fatal injuries that appeared on his body.

Jiang Jingwen told him Shen Jinjiang's death concisely and clearly, it was because of Xue Fengjian's death.He was injected with snake venom and died, claiming to commit suicide by jumping into the sea.

Jiang Yousi asked another very crucial question, where was Shen Jinjiang buried.Jiang Jingwen told him that it was a sea burial.When she found out the truth, a month or two had passed, and the dust had already settled by then.Even she couldn't help it.

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Youpan expressionlessly threw out the second-hand mobile phone that was almost shattered in his hand - there was a clear splash into the water.He found this at a second-hand store on the road, just to be able to contact Jiang Jingwen temporarily.Later, Jiang Jingwen said something to him, which should only be known to the mother and son in this world.

A beggar whose outfits are very different from the bustling Bund.Leaning on a wooden crutch, he walked slowly behind Jiang Youpan, humming a tune that Jiang Youpan had never heard before. The tune was very single, more like some kind of folk song.But the words and phrases are very familiar to him...

"There are no hills in the mountains, and the rivers are exhausted. The thunder in winter shakes, and the rain and snow in summer. When the heaven and the earth are united, you dare to break with the king."

Jiang Yousi turned his body sideways, his eyes following the hunched back of the beggar.Until the other party disappeared on the other side of the street, even a beggar could hum "Nagan and Junjue".

How painful would it be to inject snake venom to die?In the second year on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, one of his comrades in arms was bitten by a venomous snow snake. At that time, Jiang Yousi walked in the snow all night with him on his back.All that came from my ears were the painful cries of comrades-in-arms, when they returned to the barracks.That comrade-in-arms was already hopeless.

Jiang Youpan's eyes were bloodshot, he regretted, hated and annoyed, but so what?Nothing can be exchanged.It only adds to more hopeless suffering.For a moment, he really wanted to jump over the hurdle and jump directly from the top.

Seven years is enough to change a lot of things.In the past seven years, Jiang Yousi's feelings for Shen Jinjiang have been continuously precipitated, and the precipitation has become a hope in his life, a habit of life.That was the day he was waiting for, when he could come back to him again.

But that day may never come.Hatred is a good thing, it can give a person unlimited power.

Shen Rujiang died under Xue Fengjian's hands, such enmity and debt should be recovered no matter what.And Jin Xiang, when he thought of this man, the pain in Jiang Youpan's eyes turned into sharp ruthlessness.

Everything he has now, lost or gained, is all thanks to Jin Xiang.He will definitely let him watch how Jin Min, who was created according to his will, pushes him into hell little by little.

A week later, Jiang Yousi met Xue Fengjian at Huanhao Group.Sometimes a person's mental and physical condition can indeed reflect his current status.Jiang Jingwen's wariness against Min Yang, and the disdain of the Jin family.It seemed that it really made him feel uncomfortable, but the real despair was waiting for him soon.

Following Jin Xiang's wishes, Jiang Yousi talked with Xue Feng about the $[-] million financing round last year that could not be repaid.Since Huanhao is still not listed, it can only transfer capital to shares.That is to say, Minyang has become one of the major shareholders of Huanhao, and this big...is big enough to influence all decisions of Huanhao.

Xue Fengjian was naturally unwilling, but there was no room for negotiation.Not yet, the other party is the Minyang Group, if you want to play tricks, it is tantamount to provoking Jin Xiang, and the consequence of provoking Jin Xiang is nothing more than becoming an enemy of the entire Minyang Group.

At that time, Huanhao will have to survive in the cracks.And the [-] million US dollars of financing that was just borrowed cannot be ruined again.If it is destroyed again... Huanhao is almost destroyed.

This matter was finalized quickly, and Xue Fengjian agreed.It's just time to prepare, maybe he wants to procrastinate... This is not within the scope of Jiang Yousi's consideration, it is something that Jin Xiang should get angry.
