scapegoat

Lang Zhongming felt that he was obsessed with ghosts.

It was purely a coincidence that he arranged Xiao Yang in the current office, it was just that the meeting room was no longer needed, so there was room for it.

But now every 10 minutes I want to look up and see what's going on inside?

If he didn't pay attention, his attention was glued to Xiao Yang, who was busy sorting out the materials, for a long time.

Is this person poisonous? ? ?

At noon, Lang Zhongming originally wanted to avoid Xiao Yang, so he planned to let him eat by himself.

After watching for a long time, Xiao Yang didn't even intend to get up and go to the cafeteria.

In the end, Lang Zhongming couldn't take it anymore, so he could only go to the reference room to knock on the door to make an appointment for dinner.

After finally getting off work, Grandpa called and asked them to come to the hospital together.

The old man's voice on the other end of the phone seemed weak, as if he had just finished a rather energy-intensive treatment, and his words seemed to explain the funeral, which made Lang Zhongming's heart skip a beat.

Fortunately, when they arrived at the hospital, the old man's spirit had recovered, and when he saw his eldest grandson coming, he stretched out his dry hand tremblingly to hold him back, and he began to chatter a lot.

Lang Zhongjin quietly pulled Xiao Yang out of the ward, closed the door, and seemed to have something to say.

Xiao Yang can probably guess that it is probably the old man who needs to convey something: "Is there something wrong?"

Lang Zhongjin hesitated, and finally said: "Actually... Grandpa asked me to tell you, you...you can have fun with my brother, but you can't come for real..."

Xiao Yang twitched the corner of his mouth: "No, let Grandpa rest assured."

Lang Zhongjin frowned, and his tone became agitated: "No, grandpa is not worried about you, but my brother...he feels that my brother's attitude towards you has changed a lot recently...so..."

Xiao Yang found it even more ridiculous.

When Lang Zhongming humiliated him in every possible way, the old man was still on his side.Seeing that Lang Zhongming treats him well now, he is not happy anymore.

Lang Zhongjin's expression was a little awkward, but he still dutifully conveyed the old man's meaning: "After all, my brother is the person in charge of Hongsheng, and also the face of our Ying family in City C. He is definitely going to get married and have children."

Xiao Yang sneered: "Oh, I won't hinder him."

Lang Zhongjin: "Actually, my brother has been so kind to you recently, and I feel that I owe you something, so I sympathize with you... You see, he treated you so badly before! My brother has the same temper as his father, he is selfish and pretends to be Very elite, you are such a good person... there is no need to waste time on him..."

Xiao Yang was slightly surprised when he heard these words.

He didn't expect Lang Zhongjin to look at his brother like this. Thinking about Lang Zhongming's maintenance and love for his younger brother was also ironic.And maybe because of his brother's influence, Lang Zhongjin also despises his father by his ears and eyes.

Lang Zhongjin continued to say: "I also think that my brother may like you a little bit. Doesn't it mean that men will never forget the person who liked them when they were young... But he must not be sincere! It won't last long!"

Xiao Yang couldn't listen anymore, and interrupted coldly: "I know."

Lang Zhongjin shut his mouth abruptly, and all of a sudden there was only the sound of wind in the corridor.

After being silent for a long time, Lang Zhongjin said cautiously: "I'm sorry...Brother Xiao Yang, our family..."

Xiao Yang shook his head expressionlessly, and said, "It's all voluntary."

Yes, he did it voluntarily.

The first time to bear the notoriety for Lang Zhongming was to protect him.The second time I went to jail for Lang Zhongming, I couldn't refuse the old man's request.

Even if the reason why he stays at the Ying family now is because he has no money, no diploma, and no experience, and at the same time, the Ying family is worried that such a person who holds a secret will run outside, but in the final analysis, he also voluntarily stayed because he had nowhere to go. of.

This is not his home, but it is the only place that will take him in.He is not strong enough, the ten years he spent alone is still vivid in his memory, and he really doesn't want to live the next ten years alone.

It's just that Lang Dewen's worries are unnecessary. There are too many thorns between Lang Zhongming and him, and it is difficult to get along peacefully with shoulders to each other.

He thought that the kindness of nurturing given by the Ling family before graduating from university has now been repaid. Even if the favor left by his parents is aside, he no longer owes the Ying family anything.

It's best for the family not to provoke him again.When one day he can live well alone, he will leave.

Xiao Yang didn't want to say any more, so he turned around and turned the doorknob.

The door of the ward was opened a crack, and then the old man's earnest voice floated out.

"I'm dying. Hongsheng is in your hands. I feel at ease... I just hope that you and Zhong Jin can get married soon and have someone to take care of you. Hurry up and find a good girl. When I'm still energetic, Settle down early."

Lang Zhongming's voice sounded: "Grandpa, you know that I have always liked men..."

The old man asked back: "Then Qin Linlin is still pregnant? Aren't you able?"

Lang Zhongming insisted: "I didn't understand at that time! Now I know that I can't live with a woman for the rest of my life, and then go to harm others... Then I won't be a Langquan?"

The old man was so angry that he coughed for a while: "You are unfilial son! Say your father like that! I knew it—I knew none of you would let me worry!"

Lang Zhongming hastened to comfort the old man: "Okay, okay, grandpa, the most important thing for you is to take care of yourself. If you live longer, let us take care of you for a longer time, don't you..."

Lang Dewen managed to catch his breath: "Let me ask you... Is it because of Xiao Yang?"

Lang Zhongming was helpless: "What does it have to do with him? Don't worry about it, it's all born..."

Lang Dewen retorted angrily: "Natural fart, I think you were seduced by him like this. Sigh... I really regret it now... I shouldn't be soft-hearted and let an outsider go Come in."

Xiao Yang was there, unable to move for some reason.

In order to appease the old man, Lang Zhongming started to coax him blindly, and the old man continued to say a lot, such as "I don't know if he will also affect Zhong Jin", each sentence pierced Xiao Yang's heart.

"It's not my family..."

Xiao Yang shut the door silently.

Lang Zhongjin was a little nervous at the side: "Brother Xiao Yang... Grandpa was confused by my anger... He actually loves you very much..."

Xiao Yang glanced at him, there was nothing but indifference in his eyes.

Then, Xiao Yang reopened the door deliberately and quietly, and entered the ward as if nothing had happened.

When Lang Zhongming saw Xiao Yang and his younger brother coming in, he quickly coaxed the old man to sleep: "Grandpa, you are tired of talking so much, you should lie down and rest first. Don't worry about these things, the only way to be happy is to be happy."

The old man didn't say anything anymore, and put on a slightly blunt and gentle face, calling Xiao Yang to eat some fruit.

Xiao Yang agreed flatly, dismissing it in his heart.

Isn't it all faked?

The old man was also tired after explaining things, and he started snoring not long after.

Lang Zhongjin remained in the hospital, and the rest went home.

At night, Lang Zhongming sat on the sofa and watched TV alone, changing channels in boredom.

Tomorrow is New Year's Day, and he couldn't help thinking about whether to join a group and go out to play, so as to relax a little.

In addition, the relationship between Xiao Yang and Xiao Yang has been quite mellow recently, maybe the two of them will go on vacation together to further repair their relationship.

So Lang Zhongming knocked on Xiao Yang's bedroom door.

When Xiao Yang came to open the door, his body was covered in warm water vapor, his loose nightgown was draped over his body, and water beads were still dripping from his hair. He should have just taken a shower.

Lang Zhongming: "Would you like to go to the surrounding areas for the New Year's Day holiday? You can find a lighter itinerary."

The previous outing was not pleasant. Lang Zhongming reflected on it later, and thought that physical work such as mountain climbing might not be suitable for Xiao Yang.

This time, you can arrange a purely vacation plan, focusing on eating, drinking and having fun.

Xiao Yang probably didn't expect that Lang Zhongming would come to him to ask this question. After staying for a while, he said indifferently: "Grandpa is still in the hospital, don't go."

The reason for this refusal was really irrefutable. Lang Zhongming was at a loss for words for a moment, and before he could react, Xiao Yang had already closed the door in front of him.

The bewildered Mr. Lang returned to the sofa, thinking about it and feeling very ashamed.

He was not reconciled, and always felt that it would be better to go to play together during the holidays. Anyway, he would choose a city not far away, and it would not be too much trouble if he came back and stayed for two days.

So I called the travel agency I cooperated with and finalized a group that will leave at noon tomorrow, two people.

Lang Zhongming hung up the phone, and was about to ask Xiao Yang for his ID number so that he could report for buying insurance, when a call came in right away.

At first glance, it turned out to be a company landline.

"Hello? Who is it?"

On the other end of the phone was a sales boss from the marketing department: "Mr. Lang, are you still up?"

Lang Zhongming was a little surprised: "Hey, why are you still in the company right now? Aren't you going back to accompany your wife and children?"

The voice on the phone became urgent: "Mr. Lang, if you have time, come over here quickly. I and several department heads are here. I just saw the new project promotion poster from Jufeng. There is something wrong."

Lang Zhongming was even more surprised. Jufeng is an old enemy for many years. There is a problem with the promotional poster of their new project. What is the matter with Hongsheng: "What's the situation? Tell me briefly, I will go there now."

While speaking, Lang Zhongming picked up the clothes and put them on his body with one hand.

"Many ideas of their new project are exactly the same as the project we were planning to launch years ago. Even the minor data has not been changed, and the overall structure is also very similar...We were afraid that it was a coincidence and did not dare to inform you. We just compared Now, it is almost certain that our project has been embezzled by Jufeng..."

Lang Zhongming put on his shoes and went out, his face was ashen, his voice came out through his teeth: "What did you say?"

On the other end of the phone was an old Jianghu, who was still calm at the moment: "Mr. Lang, we have always been wary of Jufeng. It is impossible for them to get the project easily. I think... there are ghosts in the company."

Lang Zhongming was silent on the phone for a while, and then, amidst the loud sound of the car unlocking, a dangerous and harsh word came out of the receiver: "Check it out for me, everyone who has participated in this project must not let it go , especially newcomers who have been here for less than 3 years.”

For the rest of the old people, he will come in person.
