After saving Bai Yueguang's substitute

【Xu Zhinian's Diary-23】

June 2022, 5, rain

I went to the bank today because of work, but I didn't expect to meet Cui Gaoyang.

He looks very down and out now.

The law firm he partnered with has always had problems with the capital chain, and he couldn't find a reliable investor for the past two years.

This time I came to the bank because the firm was completely unable to continue, and I came to apply for bankruptcy liquidation.

I couldn't help feeling a little bit embarrassed, thinking of the time when I was studying, he was also a leader in our major.

Didn't expect to end up like this.

After I went back, I mentioned this matter to Mr. Jiang.

Mr. Jiang raised his eyebrows, and said with some surprise: "I'm surprised that his firm can last for so long."

I asked: "Why?"

Mr. Jiang said: "Because I took special care of him, no one would invest in him."

I:"……"

Mr. Jiang raised his eyebrows and looked at me: "What kind of eyes are you looking at?"

"Admiring eyes." I said, "The way Mr. Jiang spoke just now is becoming more and more like a domineering president."

Mr. Jiang was speechless: "Who am I doing this for?"

My face was a little hot, I leaned over and hugged Mr. Jiang, and said, "I know, you are trying to vent my anger on me."

Mr. Jiang was very satisfied with my initiative: "It's good that you know."

Of course I know.

Mr. Jiang is silently seeking justice for me for the sufferings and difficulties I have encountered and the unfair treatment I have endured.

I can only reciprocate with deep love.

Cui Gaoyang?

1613

I frowned and looked at it quietly for a while.

Cui Gaoyang was talking with an elite man in a suit, and he didn't notice that we were watching his appearance.

"You know him?" I turned to ask Xu Zhinian.

"Ah..." Xu Zhinian froze for a moment, then nodded, "I know."

1614

I raised my eyebrows slightly.

Xu Zhinian continued: "He, he is my classmate."

"Student?" I wondered, "He has graduated for several years, so he shouldn't be your senior..."

I paused and quickly reacted.

What Xu Zhinian said should be his classmate three years ago.

"Yeah." Xu Zhinian nodded and said, "We used to live in the same dormitory."

1615

I have checked Xu Zhinian's information, and I know that he has a completely different personality three years ago than he is now.

Three years ago, he was cheerful and confident. He had never experienced anything sinister, nor had he ever met anyone with malicious intentions.

He was open to everyone, full of kindness.

He must also have many close classmates and friends.

I can even imagine scenes of him laughing, beating, scolding, and playing wantonly with his former classmates.

1616

I sighed heavily in my heart, raised my hand to touch Xu Zhinian's face, and asked, "Do you want to say hello?"

"No need." Xu Zhinian quickly refused.

I was a little surprised, but found that he looked at Cui Gaoyang with extremely complicated eyes.

That kind of complexity doesn't seem like the surprise and embarrassment of meeting an old classmate unexpectedly, it seems to be mixed with something else.

I couldn't help but ask: "Did you have a bad relationship before?"

Xu Zhinian hesitated for a moment, and said, "In the beginning...the relationship was good."

I nodded: "Is that what happened later?"

Xu Zhinian blinked, as if thinking about words.

1617

"I don't know, whether it's a falling out." Xu Zhinian said, "Afterwards... I never saw him again."

I felt a little uncomfortable in my heart.

This discomfort comes from Xu Zhinian's special attention to Cui Gaoyang, his deliberate avoidance and inexplicable attitude.

There is a story at a glance.

I also know that my possessiveness has started to attack again.

I wish he was mine alone.

He can't have stories with other people.

1618

"You... liked him before?" I asked in a deep voice.

Probably because my tone was too cold, Xu Zhinian was taken aback, and subconsciously retorted: "How is that possible!"

"Oh." I breathed a sigh of relief.

"How could I like him." Xu Zhinian turned his head, looked at me dumbfounded, and said, "Mr. Jiang, why do you think so?"

I said, "Isn't it?"

"Of course not." Xu Zhinian said, "I only liked Mr. Jiang."

Knowing that he might be comforting me, I still couldn't help but raise the corners of my lips.

1619

I said, "I think your attitude towards him is a bit strange."

The expression on Xu Zhinian's face faded: "...is it so obvious?"

"Yeah," I said, "I saw it right away."

Xu Zhinian was silent for a while, and then he told me about the entanglement between him and Cui Gaoyang.

1620

"There were four people in the dormitory back then, one was renting a house outside, lived with his girlfriend, and rarely came to the dormitory, and the other was a wealthy second generation from a wealthy family, who didn't have much to do with poor people like us, so the relationship between me and Cui Gaoyang most."

Xu Zhinian said: "Cui Gaoyang's family background is average. Of course, it is better than mine, so he often helps me in life."

"After knowing that I had to earn tuition and living expenses by myself, he even introduced me to a part-time job with a lot of money." Having said that, Xu Zhinian paused, "At that time... I was very grateful to him and trusted him."

I suddenly realized something and looked up at him.

Xu Zhinian went on to say: "That day...he was the one who called me over. After I arrived, I found out that Yan Zhizhe was there. I believed him very much at that time, and never thought that he would harm me."

I asked, "Has he betrayed your trust?"

"I don't know." Xu Zhinian sniffed, "He handed me a drink. I was unprepared. It might have been filled with ingredients. I lost consciousness after drinking it. When I woke up, I was taken by Yan Zhizhe before. Went to that villa."

"After that day, I never saw him again."

I have never seen it again, the blue sky and white clouds outside, the mountains are high and the water is wide.

1621

I listened, and my heart couldn't help but burst into anger.

"Mr. Jiang." Xu Zhinian called my name, and then said, "I also thought at the beginning, when he gave me that glass of drink, did he know that there was something in it? Was he being used by Yan Zhizhe, or Know the inside story from the beginning, and deliberately help him to harm me?"

"If he did it on purpose, but I never did anything wrong to him, why did he treat me like this? Did he never regard me as a friend? "

"What did I do wrong?" Xu Zhinian asked me.

His voice was very soft, with sadness and doubts, as if he was asking me or himself.

I stretched out my hand, pulled him into my arms vigorously, and said, "You didn't do anything wrong."

Xu Zhinian buried his head in my chest.

1622

"You are not wrong." I said word by word, "The reason is very simple, because Cui Gaoyang is a villain who strives for everything, so he can betray his friends for fame and fortune, and to please Yan Zhizhe."

Xu Zhinian raised his head, his eyes covered with mist.

I said: "You just made friends by mistake, in the future..."

I thought for a while and said, "With me here in the future, no one will be able to fool you again."

1623

Xu Zhinian was quietly hugged by me for a while.

After a while, he came out of my arms, wiped his eyes, and said, "Actually, I had already forgotten about this person until I met him suddenly today, so I remembered those things."

I said: "There is no need to think about bad things again."

"Yeah." Xu Zhinian nodded, "I don't want to pursue the past, so I will be a stranger from now on."

I raised my eyebrows: "Why don't you pursue it?"

"Huh?" Xu Zhinian was taken aback.

I sneered: "If you don't pursue it, I will too."

Xu Zhinian: "But..."

I stood up, pulled Xu Zhinian up again, and said, "Since we met by such a coincidence today, let's go say hello."

Xu Zhinian followed my strength and stood up, then asked again: "How do you say hello?"

I said, "Of course I want to let him know how well you are doing now."

"It's not necessary..." Xu Zhinian hesitated.

"It's necessary." I raised the corners of my lips and said, "Let him know that you have my back now."

Xu Zhinian didn't know why.

I said, "Scare him. He has done something wrong on his own, and of course he is afraid of ghosts coming to his door."

"..." Xu Zhinian muttered, "I'm not a ghost."
