deep compromise

When receiving news from the private detective again, Chen You'an picked up his chopsticks and continued eating without much hope.

In the past three years, he has been disappointed too many times.If you look forward to it every time, it will only be more difficult to bear the result.

In the past three years, Chen Youan's company has exploded at an incredible speed, and it has been several times the size when he took over the Chen family.

It happened to be a family banquet that day, and the family of four faced a large table of dishes. The atmosphere was good, but after the meal was over, Chen Haisheng and Ye Jinyi both sat on the sofa and called him over.

The two looked at the successful elder son and the lively and cheerful second son with satisfaction.

Chen Youan also sat down, calmly waiting for his parents to speak.

Chen Haisheng said to him, "Son, my parents have heard about the Zhang family's affairs. That Zhang's eldest son really did something wrong."

"But the Zhang family's old man and your father and I were also good friends many years ago, so you should just stop."

Sure enough, this is the case.

Chen You'an didn't answer right away, but took a sip of tea and thought for a moment.

In the past three years, he has gradually eroded the Zhang family's property in an unhurried manner. Today, he is almost close to the collapse of the entire Zhang family building.

The reason why he didn't take thunderous measures is not that Chen You'an still has a little pity for the Zhang family, but because he wanted to see the Zhang family panic all day long, little by little because they were afraid of civil strife, and finally found out that no matter how hard they struggled, it was useless. .

Now, he's about to do it.

I am not unhappy.

Chen Youan cleared his throat, "Dad, Mom, I understand everything you said."

"I can stop now, as long as Ning Ye comes back, Zhang Ming will personally kneel down and apologize to him."

He thought to himself, even if I stop now, the Zhang family would have been almost destroyed by my own people long ago.

Chen Haisheng and Ye Jinyi looked at each other, not knowing how to answer.

Ye Jinyi has never cared much about this stepson. Firstly, she is too young, and she is not Chen Youan's biological mother. Secondly, this eldest son has quite good skills in managing the company, which is reassuring.

But this time under Chen Haisheng's entrustment, it is better for her to say some things.

Ye Jinyi is still a little afraid of disciplining this son, especially as Chen Youan's power has grown in the past two years, his aura has become stronger, like ice that cannot be melted.

She hesitated and said, "You'an, you have worked so hard to manage our company in the past few years, and you have spent a lot of time. Mom sees that you have been alone, walking alone, and have no companion to accompany you..."

Before continuing, he was interrupted by Chen Youan, who said, "Mom, don't worry about me, I have a lover, but I just went to a far away place temporarily."

He lowered his voice, as if saying to himself, "One day, I will bring him back."

Ye Chen leaned on the sofa on the other side, and sighed in an old-fashioned way.

He is young and has a lot of playfulness. After Ning Ye disappeared suddenly, he searched everywhere at the beginning, anxious.

However, there is no shortage of good-looking men and women in the entertainment industry. After a while of depression, facing the colorful world, Ye Chen gradually cheered up.

He likes Ning Ye, but at best it's only a superficial affection. Over the years, he has watched his elder brother's every move, and gradually understands that Ning Ye's importance to his elder brother is not something he can interfere with.

After the weekly family dinner, Chen Youan drove back to the mountain villa.

In the past three years, when there is no job, Chen You'an will come back to live here.

He deftly opened the door to the master bedroom on the second floor, and his spirit after a tiring day gradually relaxed.

The big bed in the master bedroom was replaced with a starry sky purple sheet, but everything else remained unchanged.

There is also a pair of couple slippers at the door, the smaller one is newer, it seems that the owner has not worn it for a long time.

On the small table next to the bed, a red velvet box lay quietly there.

The box appeared to have been damp, the velvet was slightly caved in and old.

Throwing himself into the big soft bed, Chen You'an turned on his phone to check the new message from the private detective.

He subconsciously clenched a pendant hanging around his neck.

It was a silver ring, slightly dull in color, as if someone had repeatedly touched it with his hands, with a few small words protruding from it, "You are safe."

The private detective sent a screenshot of a social network. In the middle is a photo. The protagonist of the photo is a cute young girl. She inserted a piece of salad and smiled brightly.

The small characters below read: Going to the beach in N City, it seems like I met a celebrity by chance!Let me guess who it is for you, the hint is a popular web drama that was filmed two years ago.

Behind the girl is a sandy beach and coconut trees, not far from her, a man's back was captured into the photo.

Because the focus was on his face, the back was not very clear, only a head of black soft short hair, and the upper body in white short sleeves, and the exposed arms were thin and white.

Chen You'an suddenly sat up from the bed, staring at the photo with fixed eyes, which seemed to be able to burn a hole in the man's back.

He noticed that his hands were trembling slightly. During the few seconds he was calling the private detective, his heartbeat accelerated and he felt palpitations. Chen Youan pressed his hands on his chest and asked a question.

"Where did that little girl see this man?"

In the end, I decided to go there by plane. Even though I can leave immediately by car, N City is not close to here, so it’s better to wait half a day to fly there.

After getting on the plane, Chen You'an was still a little dazed. He hoped that this time would not be the same as many times in the past.

The past three years have not been long or short, but disappointments have gradually piled up. Sometimes Chen You'an would doubt whether Ning Ye is really still in this world?Why did he use all means to track down Ning Ye's identity information and phone number, but couldn't find anyone?

But just one thought of this guess is enough to make him suffocate like drowning, and he can't breathe.

He had to believe that Ning Ye was just hurt by him and ran away far away.

He would never admit that the back of the man in the photo was wrong, it was Ning Ye.

On the plane, Chen Youan couldn't sleep, and checked this precious photo repeatedly.

After the two separated, he realized that they didn't even have a photo together.

Fortunately, he can still watch TV series, movies, variety shows and magazine covers that Ning Ye has filmed.

Holding the ring hanging around his neck in the palm of his hand, Chen You'an rubbed the four small characters with his thumb.

Even this thing, he was lucky, God favored him once, and it finally came into his hands.

After returning from abroad three years ago, even though he rushed to the hospital immediately, what he faced was Ning Ye's discharge from the hospital and all funeral arrangements.

He immediately traced all possible traces of Ning Ye's departure through his personal relationship, but he still found nothing.

And that night when he returned to the villa alone, he happened to meet the cleaning aunt.

The water in the swimming pool of the villa is changed once a week. The swimming pool was drained that day. The cleaning lady picked up the box from the bottom of the pool and didn’t know what to do with it. When the owner came back, she handed it to him.

Chen Youan opened the red velvet box and saw the ring.

Perhaps it was soaked in water for too long, and the silver ring had oxidized and turned black, but the four small characters engraved on it could still be vaguely seen.

"I hope you are safe."

Chen You'an finally realized deeply that Ning Ye really didn't want him anymore.

He remembered the ridiculous night when the two of them were by the pool, which happened to be the first day of the new year, his birthday.

What kind of mood should Ning Ye have secretly prepared a birthday present for him, only to wait for his indiscriminate misunderstanding and rough treatment on the bed.

He held the ring firmly in his palm, and the uneven carvings almost pierced his flesh.

It turns out that this is the feeling of liking someone but not getting a response.

Now, it's Chen You'an's turn to taste it.
