To die

For the past few months, Lu Hanqian has been in a state of stress.

First, Lin Yan broke up with him, then the amnesia in the isolation room, the short but beautiful tenderness that was unreal, until now, when Lin Yan woke up and parted ways with him, Lu Hanqian seemed to be awakened suddenly. All the complexity, pressure and pain suddenly poured on him.

Lu Hanqian felt a kind of sadness, bewilderment, and the sadness of not knowing who to confide in.

After Lin Yan finished speaking, he turned and left.

Very clean and neat, without a trace of muddy water.

After people walked away, Li Nan stood outside the door for a while, hesitated for a while, and then entered the ward again.

Lu Hanqian sat on the bed blankly, maintaining the posture in which he watched Lin Yan leave just now, without moving.

He still had some abrasions on his cheeks and arms, which were bandaged after applying the lotion.

At first he didn't think it was serious, but when Lin Yan left, Lu Hanqian's expression showed a bit of embarrassment.Looks like a thwarted large dog.

Growing up he was always asked to be the best.The arrogance of being born in a famous family really made Lu Hanqian never willing to show weakness easily.

However, at this moment, when Lin Yan turned around in front of him again, leaving Lu Hanqian where he was, Lu Hanqian was still unavoidably sad.

He knew that his expression was ugly and not decent at all, but he couldn't control it.

He should have been angry, angry, because Lin Yan lied to him, ignored all his sacrifices, and told him clearly that no matter what he did, he would never like him at all.

But compared to these, Lu Hanqian felt more sad and uncomfortable at the moment, like a child who tried his best to please others but was still abandoned.

——This is probably the difference between liking and disliking.

If you don't like a person and you are deceived by an ordinary friend, the first reaction of ordinary people is to be angry and never communicate with him again;

But if you are cheated by someone you like, then what hits the heart faster and stronger than anger is sadness.

"......boss."

Li Nan hesitated to speak: "Are you okay...I didn't know that lawyer Lin was outside the door."

Lu Hanqian shook his head and said nothing.

After a long time, he let out his breath, regained his energy, and said to Li Nan: "Go and investigate more, go deeper, and tell me after clarifying the matter."

Li Nan was slightly stunned, but did not respond: "What?"

"I want to know what happened back then." Lu Hanqian said, "What is the reason why Lin Yan's mother passed away? Lin Yan said that her death was a gift from our family, and according to his character, he would not make trouble for no reason. The person fell from our house, and my parents will be blamed for it. I want to know other secrets in it."

Li Nan opened his mouth: "...20 years have passed—"

"Twenty years have passed, and I still don't know what kind of family I grew up in."

Lu Hanqian was silent, and said in a low voice: "Even if Lin Yan lied to me from the beginning to the end, there must be a very unforgettable reason for him to endure it for so long and stay by my side."

Li Nan was going crazy: "Boss, Jinye is in dire straits right now, you still have to worry about what's there or not..."

"Help me make an appointment with Deputy Director Zhang for dinner at night."

Lu Hanqian gritted his teeth and sat up, touched the gauze on his face, some tried to remove it, so as not to look ugly when he went out.

Li Nan came over to help, grinning his teeth in pain, exhaling and saying:

"Don't worry, Jinye also has my hard work, and I won't leave it alone. But——"

Lu Hanqian paused, and continued: "But I want to find out what kind of enterprise is running in my hands."

"...is a business empire that everyone envies; or a monster that looks glamorous but is actually filthy."

Li Nan's complexion was complicated. After a long silence, he said in a low voice, "Okay. I will always follow you."

When he was studying at the University of Pennsylvania, Lu Hanqian knew that capital is cruel.

It squeezes the surplus value of the workers, making the employees spend their time and lives earning money for themselves, but only takes [-]% of it to pay them as compensation.

But Lu Hanqian doesn't think there's anything wrong with this. If a society wants to develop and the world wants to progress, human beings must pay the price.

If he doesn't become that entrepreneur, there will always be someone else, perhaps not as good as him.

He enjoys the sense of accomplishment of playing with capital and creating the greatest value with the least amount of capital, as well as the stimulation of constantly conquering and expanding his market scope.

However, in the final analysis, Lu Hanqian is more inclined to the European way, the main cruelty is capital.Lu Hanqian is not familiar with Lu Beizheng, who used the Chinese feudal period to collude with party members, eliminate dissident parties, and play with people's hearts and superiors.

It can even be said that when he found out that there is a mental hospital under his family name, which is specially used to deal with those people who Lu Beizheng "doesn't want" them to exist, it actually had a shock to Lu Hanqian.



In the next few days, while Lu Hanqian was running around for his own company, he helped Lin Yan cover up.

Lu Beizheng didn't do anything to Lin Yan again, because he thought that Lin Yan had lost his mind, couldn't speak, and didn't pose any threat.

But if he knew that Lin Yan had recovered and was assisting the investigators in Beijing, it was hard to guarantee that he would do something again.

Lu Hanqian concealed Lin Yan's whereabouts to the outside world, creating an illusion that Lin Yan was still living with him and that he was not getting better at all, while silently watching him, in case anything happened to Lin Yan.

After Lin Yan left the hospital, his basic necessities of life became very low-key.

He seldom wears his habitual windbreaker and short boots, but instead changes to a sweater and jeans.

Sometimes when he goes out with a baseball cap that covers most of his face and carries a backpack, he looks like a part-time graduate student, Lu Hanqian is stunned.

It's not long after the operation, so you have to watch out for rejection at all times. Lin Yan always brings medicine with him every time he goes out.

And most of the rest of the time, he stayed in the small rented room, sending emails, sorting out materials, and sorting out ideas.

When Gu Li's case came to an end, Lin Yan was still not sober.

He didn't know what happened to Gu Li in the end, nor did he know that Lu Hanqian had met her in private.

Only sometimes, when Lin Yan felt tired or at a loss, he would quietly press his hand there, and the room was extremely quiet. He could hear the second hand of the clock rubbing against the dial, and he could feel the sound of his heart in his body. Feel the shock of struggling to beat.

This shock will give him a sense of warmth and security, as if a traveler walking alone in the snow suddenly received a gift of firewood.

In order to avoid people's eyes and ears, Lin Yan no longer has much contact with his former friends.

The little nurse was very worried about his disappearance before, and Lin Yan didn't try to contact her after waking up.He is very wary of the people around him, sometimes an old lady walks around in front of his window for a while, Lin Yan will be ready to leave through the back door at any time.

So, when Lu Hanqian parked his car in front of Lin Yan's residence late at night for a while, Lin Yan immediately found out.

He stood behind the curtain, looking sideways through the gap.

Lu Hanqian changed the car, but Lin Yan didn't recognize it when he saw it.Lin Yan didn't recognize Lu Hanqian from behind until he got out of the car to smoke a cigarette after staying in the car for more than ten minutes.

At that time, Lu Hanqian was under a lot of pressure.

He was socializing with all kinds of leaders, so he couldn't play the young master's temper, he had to be patient with them and pry their tongues.

It is not easy to drink alcohol after a car accident, but Lu Hanqian sometimes has to have a drink or two to express his affection.

Every time the banquet ended, he would feel dizzy, and the head of the bureau would send him to the car with a smile, but Lu Hanqian just wanted to throw all these people into the river one by one.

He rolled the car window wide open, blowing the night wind, and unknowingly opened it towards Lin Yan.

Even if he can't say a word, just take a look at the light that is still on in Lin Yan's small private room from a distance, smoke a cigarette and then go back, as if he can give Lu Hanqian great motivation to continue walking in the middle of the night.

He came almost every night, and it was uncertain how long he would stay.

At first Lin Yan was a little worried that he would make another old mistake and do something radical, but Lu Hanqian seemed to be carefully covering up his whereabouts and didn't want to disturb Lin Yan. If Lin Yan wasn't too vigilant, he might have come It's no different than not coming.

Lin Yan now lives in a shared house in order to deceive others.

One night, the young man next door got into an argument with someone, and there was a lot of commotion, but Lin Yan was not threatened at all, but he didn't know who called the police. Armed rushed upstairs.

What Lin Yan didn't know was that Lu Hanqian also went to the stairs together at that time, and then half a floor up to Lin Yan's building.

What Lin Yan didn't know was that Lu Hanqian also went to the stairs together at that time, and then half a floor up to Lin Yan's building.

He clenched his fists and waited nervously for the police to take him away, and then he was slightly relieved.

Lu Hanqian was particularly afraid that this dispute was just a cover-up, but in fact the main purpose was to take advantage of the chaos to hurt Lin Yan.

After the matter calmed down, he didn't dare to leave that night. He sat in the car and waited half a night downstairs in Lin Yan's building. When the sky was bright and there were many people on the street, the tight string slowly relaxed. He was extremely sleepy and fell asleep with his eyes closed. past.

Around nine o'clock, a cleaner came and knocked on Lu Hanqian's car window.

Lu Hanqian squinted his eyes and rolled down the car window, and fell into a drowsy sleep. The cleaner asked him:

"Sir, are you all right?"

Lu Hanqian hasn't fully woken up yet, and is in the unresponsive period of just waking up.

"......It's alright."

He replied blankly, and yawned: "You go about your business, I'll sleep in the car for a while."

The cleaner said "Hey", then turned and left.

Lu Hanqian moved his legs that were numb from sleep, a little surprised, he thought that the cleaners in Lancheng were quite high-quality, they watched all directions, listened to all directions, and paid attention to the health of every citizen.

He started the car and looked at the time and it was time to go to the company.

Before leaving, Lu Hanqian turned his head subconsciously and looked in the direction of Lin Yan's room through the mirror.But unexpectedly, Lin Yan happened to be standing in front of the window, turning his head slightly, as if his eyes were on Lu Hanqian's side.

Lu Hanqian was stunned for a moment, wondering if he had read it wrong, but the car behind him honked his horn, and he didn't have a chance to confirm again, so he merged into the traffic flow.

Lin Yan's silent gaze made Lu Hanqian think for a long time.

Did he spot him downstairs, or was it just a coincidence?

But if he found out, why did he allow him to stay there without a phone call to drive him away?

Lu Hanqian played with his phone in a daze. After a long while, he unconsciously unlocked the gesture lock and slid to the memo.

In addition to recording some contracts and meetings that should not be forgotten, there is also a "99 small things in love" on top of it.

Lu Hanqian hadn't opened it for a long time, but for some reason today, he opened it again by accident.

Lu Hanqian almost remembers all the "lover must do small things" in it, he has read it many times before, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he has memorized it fluently.

Seemingly aimless, he actually slid to the bottom involuntarily.

——Article 83, say "good morning" to each other once.

Lu Hanqian thought of the cleaner who came to him in the morning to ask him if he was concerned about any discomfort, and said in his heart, Lin Yan, good morning.

Then he stretched lazily on the chair.

He didn't stop Lin Yan from reporting their family, but he also wouldn't wait helplessly for the company to collapse.

Before finding out whether his family's actions have exceeded Lu Hanqian's bottom line, Lu Hanqian will not do nothing.He has his own yardstick to measure the world.

In a sense, they are actually a contest now.

Apart from the completely domineering personal threats and unequal status when they first met, Lu Hanqian now gave Lin Yan enough space and freedom to compete with him.

He wanted to see Lin Guyan, who was once magnificent and talented; he also wanted Lin Yan to know what Lu Hanqian, who graduated from the Business School of the University of Pennsylvania and became the new helm of Jinye at the age of 20, had. ability.
