Mu Zixing hung up the phone first, and there was no sound from Lei Shao's side, and the people at both ends were silent relative to each other.

Afterwards, Mu Zixing called out to Mr. He had a lot to say, but he couldn't say anything. There was a lump in his throat, and his eyes were red from the discomfort, so he had to listen to the other party's shallow breathing. Close your eyes and turn off the screen.

"Boss, have you decided where to go?" Gu Yi came to the deck and stood with Mu Zixing facing the sea breeze.

Mu Zixing put his mobile phone in his pocket, stared at the sea water cut by the turbine for a long time, and finally suppressed the turbulent heat in his eyes.

"I want to find Ji Haodong." Mu Zixing said, he had nothing else to do besides this.

"Then I'll go and tell my brothers." Gu Yidao said.

"you……"

"Boss, stop, we will go wherever you go, LA will not recognize someone else as the boss without you." Gu Yi said with a wave of his hand.

"...All right." Mu Zixing smiled helplessly.

On the second night after Mu Zixing left, a black SUV parked outside the gate of Xiaobailou.

Lei Shao lowered the car window and turned his head to look at the small building with dark lights. After a few seconds of silence, he opened the door and got out of the car.

"Wait here, don't follow in." He explained to the bodyguard behind him, then stepped forward, searched in the cycad flower pot at the door, and found the bunch of hidden keys.

The wooden gate was opened, and Lei Shao walked in. He didn't deliberately walk lightly. If Mu Zixing was there, he was always alert. At this moment, the lights in the room would be on or he would be hiding somewhere in the dark. Waiting to deliver the fatal blow to the intruding enemy.

But until he went upstairs, he didn't see Mu Zixing's figure.

Lei Shao pursed his lips. He changed his shoes, walked to the living room barefoot, and pressed the switch on the wall with his hand, but the light did not turn on.

After a pause, he took out his mobile phone and turned on the flashlight. Nothing in Mu Zixing's room had been touched, as if the owner just went out for a walk and would be back soon.

But many details told him that the person had really left, for example, all the power at home was turned off, and the water was also stopped.

Mu Zixing...

Lei Shao stood in the living room with his hands down, facing the empty room, in a daze for a long time, he couldn't tell what he was feeling at the moment.

An indescribable pain spread from the bottom of my heart, but at the same time I was a little glad that the person was gone.

Lei Shao found the power control valve and flipped it up. The overhead lights in the room flickered, and warm yellow light spread down.

Not counting his childhood, Mu Zixing lived in Lei's house for five or six years, but his house was neat and unpopular.

The total time he stayed here was less than two months, but there were shadows of his life everywhere.

Mu Zixing likes such a home, and Lei Shao always remembers it, but he never gave it to him.

Lei Shao looked at the furnishings in Mu Zixing's house one by one. He found the clothes and things carefully treasured in the closet, and also found the old mobile phone lying quietly in the drawer.

He took out his phone and pressed the power button.

The screen, which was originally off due to water entering, slowly lit up at this moment.

Lei Shao's fingertips slid across the home screen. There were very few software installed in it. It really didn't look like a phone whose edges were slightly worn due to long-term use.

After clicking on the only software, Lei Shao's eyes froze slightly when he finally turned to the video.

Looking at the young man who once knelt on the ground and was desperate for Mu Zixing in the picture, it felt strange as if he had been in a lifetime.

It turned out that I once cared about him so much.

Lei Shao panicked, he scrolled back the video, and saw the scene of the boy himself confronting Ji Baichuan.

He often hated Mu Zixing for losing the young boy in his heart, but he himself hadn't changed beyond recognition.

If it were his former self, no matter what Mu Zixing did, how could he be willing to torture him, hate him, and make him die of pain?

The last picture on the video screen was fixed on his face sitting in the corner of the hospital bed with empty eyes.

Only Ji Baichuan has this video.

Lei Shao could probably guess Ji Baichuan's intention of videoing Mu Zixing.

In fact, he had almost won at that time, and between Ji Baichuan and him, it was the former who finally compromised.

Years ago, in that cold and depressing room, when Ji Baichuan asked who was Ji Haodong's son, Lei Shao identified another person.

He was only 16 years old at the time.

At the age of 16, he has not experienced ups and downs, and he has not developed the ability to remain calm in this bloody world.

At the age of 16, in desperation, he had no choice but to choose this method.

Because Lei Shao knew that his adoptive father was suspicious by nature, and would rather kill him by mistake than let him go. If he didn't point out one, none of the three children present would be able to escape.

So for Mu Zixing, he lied and killed another innocent child.

But such a lie is too weak to stand up to scrutiny, and Ji Baichuan will know the truth as long as he checks it out.

It didn't take long for the matter to come to light. Ji Baichuan took Mu Zixing away, and Lei Shao knelt outside for two days before seeing his adoptive father.

A long tug-of-war unfolded between the father and son, and finally Lei Shao said, "Send him away, just like Ruan Ning, let him go to school, don't let him participate in anything about Rongxing, from now on he will be cruel to me. There will be no threat, and there will be no threat to Rongxing."

Ji Baichuan knew that if the quarrel continued, it might not end. He agreed to Lei Shao's proposal, but he said, "Then you will never see Mu Zixing in the future. If you want to see him, just wait until when you can come from me." Let’s take away the position of the person in power.”

Lei Shao's pupils constricted, but he didn't dare to refute, so he had no choice but to agree.

"Shao'er, I know that you are the youngest child in the family. Your parents didn't want you to go this way. They protected you very well before, but now you are the only one left in the Lei family. Rongxing's burden It's all on you, you're not ruthless or strong enough, how will you hold on in the future?"

"In the past, your parents taught you to be an upright and kind person. From now on, forget about it. You can't live in Rongxing by being kind and upright. You have to become strong enough to make everyone obey you. You can only live the life you want if you are loyal to you, otherwise... you have nothing, and you can't even protect the person you want to protect the most."

When Ji Baichuan said these things, Lei Shao just listened in silence and didn't say anything, but the last sentence touched his heart.

"So, grow up," Ji Baichuan finally patted him on the shoulder and said earnestly, "This is your life, you can't escape, from ten to 16 years old, if you don't want to follow me, I can't force you, now For your little star, are you willing?"

Time seems to have passed for a long time, but also seems to be just a moment, Lei Shao heard himself say, "I am willing."
