Pretending to be miserable

As soon as Chi Zheng came out after changing the store clothes, he saw the screen of the mobile phone on the table light up. He had a vague premonition in his heart, so he walked over to pick up the mobile phone with his brow furrowed.

It was Chai Ziqian who called, and as soon as he connected, he heard the nervous voice of that person, "Xiao Zheng, you should go home."

Chai Ziqian has always been a measured person. Even when the company received unprecedented heavy losses, he never panicked, but the real panic in his tone just now made Chi Zheng's heart sink.

But this still couldn't stop Chi Zheng from being bored with that so-called "home", he said coldly, "I said, I won't be back this holiday."

"But the chairman's situation is very bad, and the doctor has issued a critical illness notice."

"..." Chi Zheng was stunned for a moment, countless scenes of Chi Yunjie beating and scolding him flashed through his mind, and those disgusting words rang in his ears again at that moment.

He couldn't help but clenched his hand holding the phone, and said word by word: "He is critically ill, he deserves it, what does it have to do with me."

Chai Ziqian was silent for a moment, and in the end he had no choice but to tell him which hospital Chi Yunjie was in now, "Chi Zheng, think about it, this is not the time for you to act rashly. How many people on the board of directors are coveting this seat? If you give up, there's nothing left."

Chi Zheng didn't speak any more, just hung up the phone.

In his heart, that person is not a father at all, because he has never fulfilled any responsibilities that a father should have. How could a father do those cruel things to his children?

Impossible, he would rather not have this father.

But even if he doesn't want to admit it anymore, the blood relationship has bound them together, and the genes will not be changed by one person's thoughts.

At this moment Chi Zheng's heart was still trembling uncontrollably, his hands were tightly clenched into fists, and his knuckles were crackling.

To go or not to go, this multiple-choice question circled around in his mind, leaving no room for retreat.His head was about to explode, but he couldn't make up his mind.

Until another message from Chai Ziqian came over: "The doctor has issued a critical illness notice for the second time."

Chi Zheng didn't reply, and then another message popped up in the chat interface.

Chai Ziqian: "Xiao Zheng, don't you want to know about your mother? Only the chairman knows about this matter."

Chi Zheng's hand holding the phone froze suddenly.

After being sent back to the Chi family when he was seven years old, he never saw that woman again.I don't know how she is doing after her second marriage, whether she has a child with that man again, and the family of three is happy...

His mother has always been his only hope for survival, and he just wanted to know why she had abandoned her own son so cruelly back then and hadn't come to see him for more than ten years!She promised to stay with him all the time, but in the end she couldn't even meet him.

He could never stay calm when it came to that woman, so Chi Zheng stood up abruptly and walked out of the lounge.

He's going to ask, before Chi Yunjie dies.

Seeing the man walking towards this side quickly, Yan Chu couldn't help but frowned.Chi Zheng's expression was wrong, he was holding the phone tightly in his hand, as if he was about to come over and beat someone up.

Yan Chu's heart sank, he stood up and asked him, "What happened?"

"I have something to go to the hospital, and I may not be able to come back tonight." When Chi Zheng spoke, his back molars seemed to be clenched tightly, as if he was trying to suppress a certain emotion.

"Do you want me to accompany you?" Yan Chu saw that he was really not sober, and was worried that something would happen to him.

Chi Zheng shook his head, his voice was a little hoarse, "No need."

"Okay." Yan Chu understood that it was useless for him to say anything at this moment, so he could only give up.He originally thought about letting him drive his own car there, but this time before he even took out the car keys, Chi Zheng turned around and left.

At this time, the store is full of people. The exam month is coming to an end recently. A large number of students are thinking of coming to have a drink and relax before going home. There are quite a lot of customers these days.Chi Zheng's back quickly merged into the crowd and disappeared.

Ding Ye had just mixed a glass of wine for a lady, and when he turned around, he saw the boss frowning and worried, and couldn't help but ask, "Brother Yan, what's wrong with you?"

Yan Chu didn't know what to say, he just shook his head, turned around and walked towards the lounge.He was in a mess right now, worried about Chi Zheng and didn't know what he could do.

After entering the lounge, Yan Chu sat down on the sofa, took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it.

In fact, he seldom smokes recently. After all, this period of time has been smooth. He gets along well with Chi Zheng, and his mental recovery is also good. Everything about him is developing in a good direction, but Chi Zheng doesn't seem to be like this.

When I was worried, I always smoked the cigarette very quickly, and this one was exhausted after a while.

Yan Chu silently took another cigarette out of the pack, and was about to light it, when the door of the lounge was pushed open.

He raised his eyes, and saw the man waved his hands in disgust to disperse the smoke in front of him, "Boss Yan is really easy to find."

Siran didn't go in, maybe he was choked by the smell of smoke, he just stood at the door and asked Yan Chu with a smile on his face, "Do you want to talk to me?"

Yan Chu was not in the mood to talk to him at the moment, so he simply lowered his eyes and lit another cigarette, "Don't talk about it."

He is not familiar with Si Ran, it can even be said that he does not know each other, so he is not in the mood to talk about it, let alone talk about it.

But Siran's persistent point will never be understood by Yan Chu. Being rejected so bluntly, he doesn't seem to be embarrassed at all. Instead, he smiles and asks: "Don't you want to know where Chi Zheng has gone?"

Yan Chu paused, let go of his hand and directly put the cigarette in his mouth.He leaned back against the back of the sofa, crossing his hands over his chest.

He wanted to know where Chi Zheng went and what happened.But since Si Ran is standing here well and still talking provocative words to him, it proves that this matter has nothing to do with Si Ran, since it has nothing to do with Si Ran, what it is is not so important.

Anyway, apart from this one in front of him, no one else is interested in intervening in his relationship with Chi Zheng.

He has always been such a selfish person, and he will never take the initiative to participate in things that have nothing to do with him.So many times, it is very difficult for others to threaten him with anything.

Seeing that he didn't respond for a long time, Si Ran's face obviously became ugly, so he simply walked into the room and closed the door.

The lounge suddenly became quiet, isolated from the noise outside, under the smog was Yan Chu's expressionless face.

In fact, he really didn't want to say anything more to Siran, after all, if he really wanted to know about Chi Zheng, he had to ask Chi Zheng to tell him himself, there was no need to ask others.Furthermore, Si Ran is really not an important role for him, he is just a child pretending to be mature.

Yan Chu felt uncomfortable being in the same space with him now.

He was about to drive away when he heard Si Ran speak first.

"Yan Chu, I know you like Chi Zheng, and Chi Zheng is also very dependent on you, but do you really understand him?"

Yan Chu glanced at him indifferently, took a deep breath, took the cigarette down and dusted it, and then slowly exhaled the white smoke.This is a very enjoyable process, but at the moment it is forced to mix in a smell of green tea.

"I know you are an orphan, so no one has taught you what is right and wrong." Si Ran looked down at him as he spoke, the sarcasm at the corner of his mouth was obvious, and he was no longer as gentle and humble as usual.

"Do you think you are worthy of Chi Zheng?" he asked.

These words are obviously poking at people's hearts.Yan Chu usually doesn't care much about other things, but people have a bottom line, if you mention the word "orphan", you are definitely jumping desperately on his bottom line, purely to death.

"Oh." Yan Chu pinched the cigarette right now, and raised his chin to look at the man, "Do you think you are the only one worthy of Chi Zheng?"

"What do you mean?" Si Ran frowned.

His mistake was that he only looked at Yan Chu's blank background, but didn't pay attention to how Yan Chu grew up against this blank.

When Yan Chu went to junior high school and beat someone to the floor looking for teeth, it was also recorded in the history of the school.He hasn't lost that skill over the years. Last time, he pressed the square box to the ground and beat it. To be honest, he was so beaten that time that he was stopped by Chi Zheng before he had beaten it a few times. .

Thinking of this, Yan Chu couldn't help but smile, but this smile sent chills down Si Ran's spine.

Seeing that he was obviously frightened, Yan Chu waved his hands and got up to open the window to ventilate, "It's nothing, you continue to say, I won't hit children."

Of course he didn't know how to do anything. If Si Ran had no background, he wouldn't dare to say that. Besides, he didn't say anything wrong, but it just hit Yan Chu's sore spot. That alone was enough for them to make a fuss.At that time, it would be too worthless to make a fuss and involve Chi Zheng.

He just didn't want to affect Chi Zheng, that's all.

Siran was at a loss in his mind at the moment, but he took the initiative to find Yan Chu this time to let this person see himself clearly, so naturally he couldn't let go of his mouth casually.

"I advise you to stay away from Chi Zheng. He is not something you can climb high. Let him go before the two of you are really together. This is good for you and good for him."

"En." Yan Chu nodded casually, "So how much are you going to give me to let me leave your little bamboo horse?"

"What?" Si Ran was directly taken aback by what he said.

Yan Chu smiled and waved his hands, "Kid, stop making trouble, go home, wash and sleep. Your bloody jokes are getting old, so come back next time with a new one."

He originally thought that this kind of situation would only appear in those bloody TV series, but he didn't expect it to happen to him. To be honest, he was a little confused.

"Don't you just want money? I can give you a price."

Yan Chu's expression suddenly turned cold. He fiddled with the valve lightly with the lighter in his hand, and the small cluster of blue-purple flames came and went.

"So, in what capacity are you telling me this?" He asked coldly, and at that moment his whole body was filled with air-conditioning, "In your opinion, Chi Zheng is someone who can be exchanged for money. ?”

To be honest, he originally thought that Si Ran was a very mature person, but now it doesn't seem to be the case.

At this moment, Si Ran was so questioned that he couldn't speak. The aura in front of him was so strong that he subconsciously wanted to run away, but his body froze there and couldn't move.

"Since we've covered this point, I'll make a statement today." Yan Chu raised his eyes to look at him, "Chi Zheng, I'm going to make a decision."
