revenge in the name of love

Chapter 53 Before the Tragedy

All the things that have passed are indeed inevitably sealed, in the background, and darkened.There is always something approaching in life, which cannot be crossed.If we are all children, we can stay in the place of time, sit together and listen to the stories that never grow old while slowly shaking our heads.But as I got older, I began to believe that the greatest wealth in a person's life: memories.Some things are doomed.

"Dad, why are you sitting in the yard? It's so cold, come in." Ever since Yu Zhe and I got Dad's approval, I often went home for dinner. Today I came home from get off work and saw Dad sitting alone. in the yard.

"Xiaoxi, I'm waiting for you." Dad took down the cigar in his mouth.

"Wait for me?" I said with a smile, "Dad, let's go into the room and talk about anything."

"it is good."

Walking into the house, I took off my father's cotton coat and let the servant hang it on the hanger.

"Dad, what do you want to tell me? So mysterious?" I took a sip of hot tea.

"Dad wants to discuss with you." Dad turned the ring on his hand, "Can you work in your own company?"

"I did a good job in "ELLE," I frowned, "Besides, there is a sister in the company to help you."

"But, Xuanxuan is a girl after all!"

"My sister's ability is much better than that of a boy like me!"

"Girls are always girls!" Dad was a little annoyed, "Don't tell me you want me to take our company as Xuanxuan's dowry and hand it over to that kid Feng Yuqing?"

"But..." I still want to refute, let him die.

"If you inherit the company, your sister will not be bullied by the Feng family! Do you understand?"

"Dad... this matter..."

"Ring, ring, ring..." By coincidence, Dad's cell phone rang.

"Hey?"

"Well... good... good..." Dad looked at me suspiciously, took the mobile phone, and walked a little further.

"Haha... old friend, you can take care of this little thing, if it's a big deal, just kill a chicken and show them."

"Well...well...bye."

"Dad..." I just wanted to resume the previous topic.

"Okay, okay, you can think about it." Dad seemed to be worried, and hurried to the study.

"Oh."

You ask me why I don't go to Xia's to work?Please, if I join my company, according to my father's personality, he will definitely take me directly to a high-level position.I don't want to do this, just like I started as a small employee in the "ELLE" company, and it took three years to prove my strength and ability. During these three years, my creativity and ideas have also been different. Layered exercise, this is what I want, something that money can't buy.

At dinner time, my sister also returned home, and the family went to the dinner table.

"Xuanxuan," my mother picked up a piece of tofu for my sister, "how is the company doing recently?"

"It's not bad. I finished all the tasks a few days ago." My sister replied with a smile.

"That's good, by the way, I heard that bird flu has spread outside recently, you have to be careful." Dad looked at his sister.

"Understood, Dad." My sister nodded to Dad.

"Sister, why are you going home for dinner today?"

"Why, why don't you want to see your sister so much?"

"No, how could it be!" I picked my rice.

"I have to report my performance to my father at night." My sister stared at me carefully, "Xiaoxi, you seem to have gained weight recently. Could it be..."

"Sister, what are you thinking? Eat yours!" I immediately cut off this sensitive topic.

After eating, I saw my sister standing outside alone looking up at the dark blue sky.Someone once said: When a woman looks at the sky, she doesn't want to look for anything.She is just lonely.

"Sister, what are you doing?"

"Xiaoxi," she still kept looking up, and sighed towards the sky, "What do you guys think? Why do you still think about the stones on the side of the road after getting the shining diamonds?"

"Sister, it's true that diamonds are shining, but that's not what we really want." I took off my suit jacket and put it on her.

"Really?" She looked at me confusedly, "Can noble things compare to cheap things?"

"Even the cheapest things are what we want."

"..."

She stopped talking, and looked down at the ground under her feet. I always felt that my sister was so far away from me, and there seemed to be an abyss lurking in her heart, and she couldn't make a sound even when she threw a boulder.

"Sister, go in, it's very cold outside."

"Well," she forced a smile, "Dad is still waiting for me."

When we entered the house, my sister went directly to the study, looking at her back, there was always some loneliness and silence.

Passing by the kitchen, I smelled a scent, stepped into the kitchen, and saw Aunt Li cooking.

"Aunt Li, what delicious food are you doing?"

"Hey! You scared me." Aunt Li watched me grow up and regarded me as her own son. "Didn't Miss come back? I plan to make some pastries for her."

"Hmph, Aunt Li is biased!" I hugged the old woman, pretending to be angry.

"My master spent a lot of energy on what you caused a few days ago!" She ignored me and continued to make her pastries.

"I know..." I muttered softly.

"Okay, the master and miss are waiting in the study, and I have to deliver tea and pastries!" Aunt Li wiped her hands, and was about to walk to the study with the freshly baked pastries.

"Aunt Li, let me come!" I couldn't bear to see the old woman's faltering steps.

"Okay, okay," she seemed to be tired, handed me the things and said, "Go!"

"okay!"

I came to the study carefully with tea and snacks, just about to open the door to enter, but the conversation between my sister and my father aroused my interest.

"Dad, the people under Brother Biao came to the company to look for me today."

"What? What did those people say?"

"They asked me to give them a sum of money, or they would die."

"How many?"

"500"

"Xuanxuan, what do you want to do?" Dad's voice was meaningful.

"Even if the fish died, the net might not be broken, let alone just a few shrimps like them." The elder sister's tone was full of disdain.

"Well, as expected of my daughter!" Dad paused and said, "By the way, have we brought back the things we gave them?"

"Brother Cheng said that he will take full responsibility for this matter."

"That's right...Since my old friend has opened his mouth, there will be no mistakes."

"Father, hasn't Brother Cheng contacted you recently?"

"No," Dad sighed halfway through, "Dad originally wanted to call, but I remembered that you were coming tonight, so I didn't ask him."

"kindness."

Aunt Li cleaned up the kitchen and asked me when she saw that I hadn't gone in.

"Xiaoxi, what are you doing at the door?"

"No, I'll just go in." I scratched my head.

I knocked on the door, and when I heard my father say "Come in", I opened the door and went in. My father was sitting on the boss chair smoking a cigar, and my sister was sitting opposite to my father.

"Dad, sister." I put down my things and said to them with a smile, "Come and have some snacks."

"Xiaoxi, come and sit down." Dad knocked on the table.

"kindness."

"Xiaoxi, Dad just told me that he wanted you to join the company, but you rejected him?" My sister patted my shoulder and said with a smile.

"This... I'm thinking about it..." I took a piece of pastry and stuffed it into my mouth.

"What are you thinking about?" My sister took a sip of tea and said, "I also want to have a helper in the company."

"There are not many elites in the company!" I muttered.

"That's different!" Dad was a little dissatisfied, and put out the cigar, "They are all outsiders, so how can they be helped by their own people?"

"I'll go back and discuss with Yuzhe." I smiled and avoided the question.

"kindness."

Saying goodbye to my family, I drove back to Yuzhe and I's home alone.

"Honey, you're back..." He sat on the sofa and watched a bloody TV series.

"Well..." I was a little tired.

"What's wrong with you?" He looked at me carefully for 2 minutes, "You don't look very good."

"I always feel that my dad and my sister are hiding something from me." I sat beside Yuzhe.

"No way..." He handed me the half-eaten bag of potato chips in his hand, "Are you thinking too much?"

"When my sister was talking to my father today, I overheard them saying that even if the fish died, the net would not necessarily break. What's more, with their words like these little shrimps, it seemed like someone was trying to blackmail our company." I ate a piece of potato chips and leaned on Yu Zhe's shoulder, "But, as soon as I entered, they said they were discussing whether I could join the company."

"Maybe it's a business matter." He put his arms around me and said softly.

"Impossible! I don't think I've heard of Brother Cheng in the mall!"

"What did you say?" He suddenly jumped up, making me laugh, "Little White Rabbit, say it again!"

"Impossible!" I froze.

"Not this sentence."

"I don't think I've heard of Brother Cheng in the mall!"

"Wait..." He snatched my potato chips, stuffed a handful into his mouth, chewed for a long time, and asked, "Brother Cheng?"

"kindness."

"Tell me their conversation carefully."

I told Yu Zhe everything that happened at home today.

"What's wrong?" Seeing his frown getting tighter and tighter, I was a little worried.

"No..." He was a little perfunctory to me.

"Look at you, you still say no! You also have something to hide from me!" I squinted and said.

"no!"

"Then why are you asking so carefully?"

"I..." He stuffed a few potato chips into his mouth, "I've never heard of Brother Cheng!"

"Nonsense! You are not from the mall!"

"Hey..." He pushed me, "Honey, go clean up for nothing, we're going to sleep."

"Sell your cuteness!" I grabbed his potato chips and walked to the bathroom.

"Hey...my wife is the best." He was not angry, turned off the TV quickly, and walked towards the room, "I'll warm your bed."

Back in the room, Ling Yuzhe waited until the sound of water came from the bathroom, then picked up the phone and dialed a series of numbers.

"Inspector, it's me."

"Oh, Yu Zhe! What's the matter?"

"I may know something behind Brother Cheng."

"..."
