This day passed so fast, Xia Jiusheng felt like blinking his eyes, and the time passed.

After breakfast the next day, Zhao Zezhong had to leave.

Although Xia Jiusheng has repeatedly acted calmly, as if he didn't care about Zhao Zezhong's departure at all, but when he helped Zhao Zezhong pack up the things and handed them to the driver to load them into the car, he felt the feeling of being hollowed out in his heart, but what did he take? I can't even fill it up.

He could only keep looking for something to do, keep himself busy, and temporarily forget the fact that Zhao Zezhong was leaving soon.

Zhao Zezhong was not in the mood for sentimentality. Grandpa celebrated his birthday. As the youngest grandson, he must go home and behave well. He is already thinking about what he should do on grandpa's birthday.

Last year on his grandfather's birthday, he found a pot of oak bonsai from a famous family. Grandpa liked it very much. He even put it in front of the study window. Whenever he had free time, he trimmed the branches and leaves, watered it, and admired the intertwined and graceful beauty of the oak bonsai.

Xia Jiusheng gave this jar of wine this year, and he felt that there was no need to look for other things. The magical function of wine can make all the rare treasures in the world stand aside.

Grandpa is over 80 years old this year. Although he has been treated by a professional health doctor for a long time, he is still in good health, but some geriatric diseases cannot be solved by a health doctor, especially when his grandfather was on the battlefield when he was young, and his lungs were pierced by shrapnel.

Twenty years ago, my grandfather suddenly contracted severe pneumonia. When he went to the hospital for examination, he found that there were still shrapnel in his lungs.The shrapnel was found during the operation, and it was found that the shrapnel had been seriously infected due to the long-term stay in the body. Finally, a lobe of lung and a rib were removed to remove the life-threatening shrapnel. Since then, Grandpa’s body can no longer Withstand intense exercise and always need to rest.

With this jar of wine to adjust his body, he believed that his grandfather would gradually get better, at least not like now, where he would be restricted in walking a few more steps.At that time, he must accompany his grandfather to Yucheng to have a look and taste the endless delicacies of Xia Jiusheng's family.

Seen off by Xia Jiusheng's family, Zhao Zezhong got into the car and waved goodbye to them.

※※※

Zhao Zezhong sat in the car, leaning his head on the back of the chair, resting with his eyes slightly closed.

When he was waving goodbye to Xia Jiusheng just now, he suddenly found his well-hidden sadness from Xia Jiusheng's bright smile.

Because of business trips, Zhao Zezhong is used to being separated and reunited with people, but Xia Jiusheng's last look on him made his heart suddenly empty, as if he left his parents for the first time ten years ago to go to a foreign country It's the same mood when I was studying in my hometown.

At that time, he had just graduated from junior high school and was sent to study in the UK by his parents. The moment he boarded the plane, the tears that fell from his mother's face suddenly extinguished his excitement about going abroad.For a long time in the future, he will think of his mother's tearful face.

Xia Jiusheng wasn't as indifferent to his departure as he had shown.

Zhao Zezhong thought sourly in the car, feeling extremely complicated.

The phone rang suddenly, and when he opened it, it was Li Qiaowei.

"Have you returned to the capital?" Li Qiaowei asked over there.

"Not yet, I booked a flight ticket for [-]:[-] pm." Zhao Zezhong replied.

I have known Li Qiaowei for 20 years. The two grew up together and know the basics, so the tone of speech is not so much a married couple, but more like friends or siblings, simple, direct and casual.

"Oh, I guess I will arrive in the capital after four o'clock." Li Qiaowei said with a smile: "Maybe we will meet at the airport!"

"Are you not in England now?" Zhao Zezhong asked unexpectedly.

It takes at least ten hours from the UK to the capital. Even if Li Qiaowei boards the plane right away, it is impossible for her to return to the capital at [-] pm.

"Yeah, I'm in Singapore now." Li Qiaowei smiled proudly, "I'm here to do something."

"Oh." Zhao Zezhong responded.

He didn't ask anything. If it was related to him, Li Qiaowei would tell him naturally.

"That's enough, see you in the afternoon." Seeing that Zhao Zezhong had nothing to say, Li Qiaowei said goodbye simply.

※※※

The car drove to the door of Bai Qishun's bar. The door was open, and there were only two waiters guarding it, because it was still early and there were no customers.

The driver is Zhao Zezhong's bodyguard, and he has been with him for a long time, so he parked the car without his orders.

Zhao Zezhong went to the second floor and opened the private room for their party. There was no one in it. It seemed that he had come early.

Opening the storage cabinet and taking a bottle of water, Zhao Zezhong sat down on the sofa.

Still unable to calm down, Xia Jiusheng's eyes when parting were like a sharp arrow, piercing into his heart, causing a dull pain in his chest.

Xia Jiusheng is a boy who would rather wrong himself than embarrass others. From the moment he knew his identity, he knew that they could not have a future, so get ready to be different and happy with each other.

Perhaps this is the best ending for them. Thinking of meeting Li Qiaowei after returning to the capital in the afternoon, his life trajectory will eventually follow the route planned long ago. Xia Jiusheng is just a passer-by in his life. Also in a hurry, go in a hurry.

But why can't his heart find peace?

Zhao Zezhong scratched his hair in distress, not daring to ask himself, for fear that he would lose his mind and make unmanageable actions.

Suddenly remembered what Xia's mother said yesterday, the Xia family's affairs did not eliminate the crisis because of arresting a village party secretary, his relatives, and some people were still implicated because of Xia Jiusheng.He took out his cell phone and made a call.

Since I can't satisfy Xia Jiusheng emotionally, then do what I can for him. I hope Xia Jiusheng's thin shoulders don't have to be so hard.

※※※

"Fourth brother came so early?" Yao Yongqian was the first to open the door and come in. When he saw Zhao Zezhong, he greeted him with a smile.

Zhao Zezhong had already made the phone call, leaned on the sofa in a daze, saw Yao Yongqian, forced a smile and nodded.

"Little Four is here!" Bai Qishun walked in immediately, sat down beside Zhao Zezhong, put her arms on Zhao Zezhong's shoulders, and said bitterly: "You guy with the opposite sex and no humanity, why don't we let us go to you?" Where is your little lover?"

"Get lost." Zhao Zezhong pushed him away and scolded, "Since when did I have the opposite sex? And when did I have a little lover?"

"What are you pretending to be stupid for?" Bai Qishun stood up, and said to Yao Yongqian in a tone of sympathy with the enemy: "Xiao Qianqian, tell me, does Xiao Si have that little lover named Xia Jiusheng, and doesn't take us brothers seriously?"

"Not really." Yao Yongqian said hesitantly as he was always on Zhao Zezhong's side.

"You sycophant." Bai Qishun gave Yao Yongqian a disdainful look, just in time to see Su Cheng coming in from the outside, and shouted: "Cheng Zi, tell me, does Xiao Si have a little lover, and he doesn't trust us more and more?" , Knowing that there is something good to eat, why don’t you let us share it?”

"I don't know." Su Cheng spread his hands blankly, he was not interested in arguing with Bai Qishun about such a trivial matter.

"I'm so pissed off by you." Seeing that no one supported him, Bai Qi sat on the side angrily, ignoring them.

Zhao Zezhong didn't care about him, Brother Qi is just an old child, and his anger will dissipate after a while.

Seeing that no one came in from behind, Zhao Zezhong asked strangely: "Where are the others?"

This time when Zhao Zezhong went home, his friends in the capital had to go back. On the one hand, they were used to activities together, and on the other hand, they had to go home to see if they needed to attend Mr. Zhao's birthday banquet tomorrow.

They are inextricably linked with the Zhao family, so I can't guarantee that they won't be needed tomorrow.Of course, the decision-making power is not in their hands, and the elders in the family need to make up their minds.

"They still have something to do in Yucheng, and they will meet us at the airport in the afternoon." Su Cheng replied simply.

"Oh." Zhao Zezhong nodded.

"What's wrong, fourth brother? Are you uncomfortable? Why is your face so ugly?" Yao Yongqian suddenly noticed that Zhao Zezhong's face was not very good, and asked strangely.

"I'm afraid I can't bear to part with that handsome guy! And he said he didn't bend?" Bai Qishun immediately jumped out and made a mend.

He hasn't calmed down about what happened just now, and Bai Qishun will definitely not miss this opportunity now.

Yesterday he called Zhao Zezhong, wanting to go to Xia Jiusheng's house for another meal with his brothers, but Zhao Zezhong stopped him, saying that Xia's father had injured his leg and was recuperating at home, so it was not suitable for these brothers to make trouble.

What and what, Xia Jiusheng was not injured?Bai Qishun was very dissatisfied with Zhao Zezhong's way of valuing sex over friends, so he kept finding fault with him today.

"What nonsense." Zhao Zezhong glared at Bai Qishun, "I'm just upset, I haven't bought a birthday present for grandpa yet!"

Zhao Zezhong wasn't ready to share that altar of wine with others, so it was impossible for these people to know that he was indeed not ready for the apparent gift.

"This excuse is too bad! What's so annoying about birthday gifts? You went to Hong Kong to participate in the auction last month. Didn't you take a picture of calligraphy and painting, a piece of porcelain? It doesn't matter which one you want to celebrate the old man's birthday!" Bai Qishun exposed him.

After thinking and thinking, he teased him with squinted eyes, and said in an obscene tone: "That handsome little guy is so handsome, even I was tempted to see it—"

"Don't act recklessly, be careful I'll turn against you!" Zhao Zezhong gave Bai Qishun a warning look.

For Xia Jiusheng, even if there is no result with him, he will never allow others to touch him.

Even though it was clear that Bai Qishun was joking, he had to express his attitude clearly.

Thinking of Xia Jiusheng, he felt that if Bai Qishun dared to provoke him, he would definitely be asking for trouble.

Xia Jiusheng's character is really not something ordinary people can bear, and only a family like his can cultivate such a unique character!

For some reason, he didn't mind Xia Jiusheng being mean to him at all, and even thought it was funny, so it made him angrier every time.In sharp contrast to his own self, he is soft-hearted towards his family, whether it is his parents or younger brother, he will not let them suffer the slightest grievance.

Such a person is easy to make people feel distressed. Zhao Zezhong fell into it unknowingly, and just wanted to protect him and take care of him.Don't let this silly child forget himself for the sake of the family.

Of course, it is undeniable that Xia Jiusheng's appearance is also the reason for him to look at him differently. If a boy sees this level, no matter how bad his temper is, people can't help but want to forgive him.

The body contradictoryly combines the characteristics of a teenager and an adult. His overly delicate facial features make people want to pity him. His astonishing skills make him more masculine than ordinary teenagers. Thinking of this, he recalled the night before yesterday When we bonded with him, the ecstasy and blissful experience made my lower abdomen feel hot.

"Look, the fox's tail is exposed—" Bai Qishun snorted. "It seems that in your heart, he is more important than us."

"Stop provoking discord, you are my brothers and buddies, how can you compare with him." Zhao Zezhong's expression became serious, and he carefully chose his words: "He is like a little brother of mine, sometimes I can't help but want to help him. He does something, that's all."

"There are ghosts only if you believe in you." Bai Qishun turned her face away and ignored him.

"When you arrive in the capital, don't mention him anymore." Zhao Zezhong reminded them, "Li Qiaowei sent me a message just now, saying that she might meet us at the airport."

Li Qiaowei, everyone here knows everyone, the little princess of the Li family, who is studying at a university in the UK, has six older brothers, and is famous for being difficult.Yao Yongqian and her were classmates in high school, so the impression was the deepest.Once, the two had an argument over a trivial matter, and they were blocked by her brother in the alley after school.

Like the Zhao family, the Li family is one of the few super families in the capital. The only difference is that the Zhao family's relationship is mainly in the local area, while the Li family's children are mainly in the army.

"It turns out that Xiaosi is upset because of this!" Bai Qishun seemed to have discovered a great event, pointing at Zhao Zezhong and laughing indistinctly, "My childhood sweetheart is back, you should be happy, how can you have a sad face? Be careful I'll go and tell Li Lao Liu that he regards you as his prospective brother-in-law, if he knows that you have changed his mind, the brothers will definitely come together to block you—"

"Go to hell!" Zhao Zezhong cursed viciously.

Of course, Li Qiaowei was not as scary as they said. What was scary was his brothers. If he dared to do something wrong to her, it would be hard to say.

"Brother Qi, stop flirting with Xiaosi." Su Cheng saw that Zhao Zezhong was really in a bad mood, and quickly stopped Bai Qishun from continuing.

The four of them have been together for a long time, and everyone's personality is clear. Although Bai Qishun is the oldest among the few, he is the least stable, and sometimes it is easy to go too far when joking. There will always be pimples.

Su Cheng usually talks the least, acts the most prudently, and what he says has the most weight. Many times, when he speaks about something that needs to be decided, no one will object.

"That's right, Brother Qi always talks about other people—" Yao Yongqian also stood up to help, "You have so many confidante friends outside, why don't you mention it, be careful and we will tell your girlfriend too."

"You want to rebel! Xiao Qianqian—" Bai Qishun put her arms around Yao Yongqian's neck, "Don't think I don't know that you flirt with the head waiter of the bar, I will definitely introduce her a boyfriend when I get back—"

※※※

After getting off the plane, the drivers of each family were already waiting by the plane, Zhao Zezhong told Bai Qishun and the others to go first, and waited for Li Qiaowei himself.

I don't know what kind of heart these people are in, but they don't want to leave, saying that they haven't seen Li Qiaowei for a while, and they have to say hello when they meet, Zhao Zezhong has no choice but to drive them away.

Among these people, apart from Bai Qishun and Yao Yongqian, the others have indeed not seen Li Qiaowei for many years. As for Su Cheng, she is the sister of Zhao Zezhong's grandmother, that is, the grandson of his aunt, and he is still a cousin in line with him, and his hometown is not there. In Beijing, I have never met Li Qiaowei.

The driver and bodyguard came over and told him that Li Qiaowei's flight would arrive in 10 to [-] minutes, so they left the airport and sat in the lounge.

A group of seven people sat down, and the service lady at the airport hurriedly made coffee and served them. They were all winking people, so they naturally knew that these young people had extraordinary identities and could not be neglected.

Among the seven, apart from Bai Qishun, Yao Yongqian, Su Cheng and Zhao Zezhong himself, there are three other friends of Zhao Zezhong. One is Gu Shuangquan, who is the same age as Zhao Zezhong. His name is very domineering, but his ability is average and his temper is soft, so he is called Xiaoshuang , with the same name as a girl in "Yi Tian Tu Long Ji", which shows his status in the group.

The other is Ding Chunguang, who is one character different from Ding Chunqiu. He is tall and burly, but has no motor nerves. He is best at playing mobile games. In the mobile games that Zhao Zezhong invested in, he also participated in some stocks.The last one is called Wu Yifeng, who is not at all like Li Yifeng. He looks fatter and is very interested in the entertainment industry. His biggest goal is to sleep with beautiful women all over the world.

Among these buddies, in terms of status, Zhao Zezhong is naturally the leader, handsomer than appearance, but Su Cheng is the most, especially Su Cheng's expressionless face all the year round, coupled with the unique cold expression of abstinent men, it is very annoying to some girls special attraction.

A few people sat and chatted for a while, and the plane from Singapore also arrived.Everyone stood up to pick up the plane, and the bodyguard took out a bunch of beautifully packaged perfume lilies from the car and handed it to Zhao Zezhong.

Holding flowers in his hands, Zhao Zezhong stood at the gangway of the plane with his buddies, watching Li Jiawei get off the plane.

"Little Four." With a playful smile on her face, Li Qiaowei waved her finger at Zhao Zezhong and called out crisply.Then he waved vigorously to the boy next to Zhao Zezhong.

The people below all waved their hands exaggeratedly, putting on a posture to welcome the big star, which made Li Qiaowei cover her mouth and smile coquettishly, especially Bai Qishun, who put her two fingers in her mouth and made a long whistle.

Zhao Zezhong shook his head wordlessly, who are these people?In such a large crowd at the airport, he actually did such a naive and frivolous behavior.

I'm really careless in making friends, why don't the people around me look like serious people?

"Weiwei." When Li Qiaowei got off the gangway, Zhao Zezhong went up to meet her, handed the flowers in his hand to Li Qiaowei, and hugged her gently.

"So many people came to pick me up!" Li Qiaowei puffed her mouth unexpectedly, and said with a hearty smile, "Thank you."

"Don't pay attention to them, they are all just dropping by to see the excitement." Zhao Zezhong curled his lips, tearing through their pretentiousness. "You know almost all of these people. By the way, this is my cousin Su Cheng."

"Hello, Ms. Li." Su Cheng still had a cool look, and lightly shook hands with Li Qiaowei.

"Hello." Li Qiaowei responded, her eyes lingering on Su Cheng's face for a moment.

Almost all the men in Li Qiaowei's family have been soldiers, and they are all high-ranking and rough-looking. Few of them are handsome and gentle.And Su Cheng has a special temperament, which Li Qiaowei has never seen before, which makes her very curious, and can't help but pay special attention.

"Are you tired? Do you want to go home first, or find a place to get together?" Zhao Zezhong asked thoughtfully beside him.

"Let's go home first, isn't the jet lag completely upside down?" Li Qiaowei smiled tiredly. "We'll see each other tomorrow anyway."

"Alright then, I'll take you back first." Zhao Zezhong led Li Qiaowei to his driver.

"No need, look, the driver of my house is here too, right there." Li Qiaowei pointed to the car in the distance and said.

Looking at Li Qiaowei's hand, there really was a car parked there.

After all, it is the Li family's style of doing things, and it is so low-key to pick up someone.

"Okay then." Zhao Zezhong didn't insist, and sent her to the car, saying goodbye to her. "See you tomorrow."
