Xiao Guojian rushed home as soon as he got off the plane.
In the kitchen, Xiao's mother and housekeeper Qin are studying how to improve the taste of medicated food, which is quite academic.
"The taste of medicinal materials can't be covered." Xiao's mother pondered, and the corner of her eyes swept to the tall figure standing at the kitchen door. She quickly put the menu in the hand of housekeeper Qin and said, "are you back?"
"Well." Xiao Guojian took off his scarf, put his mother in his arms, clapped her shoulder and said, "last time I said on the phone that Yuchu was ill, what's the matter? Are the children back yet? Still in the hospital? "
Mother Xiao nodded and glanced at her husband's serious face. After thinking about it, she told her honestly: "actually It's a miscarriage. There are no children. "
Xiao Guojian frowned and tightened: "what's the matter? Did Xiao Chen not take good care of him? "
"That day Alas, it's hard to say. In a word, people are OK, but they are still in hospital. " Xiao's mother thought about it, then turned back and said, "add a dessert, put more materials and make it delicious."
Housekeeper Qin answered "yes" and went to the cook and gave orders in a low voice.
Seeing that his wife didn't want to mention it again, Xiao Guojian had to follow her to the living room and take off his coat with snowflakes: "tomorrow is the Lantern Festival. Let the children leave the hospital and come home to keep them."
"That's my plan, too." Xiao's mother sighed and hung up Xiao Guojian's overcoat: "after all, it's not in her own home. It's better to stay in a hospital like that."
"Then call Xiao Chen, and if the snow stops, drive back." Xiao Guojian took the hot tea from housekeeper Qin and sipped it lightly.
At night, the car stopped at the gate of Xiao's house.
Xiao Chen opens the car door and lets Xu Yuchu get out of the car with his arm. They walk slowly through the front yard with warm light. Xiao Chen's vision is always hovering on Xu Yuchu's side face. Seeing that she doesn't look at the place where she once lay on her back, her slightly accelerated heartbeat becomes gentle again.
He raised his head and noticed the tall figure standing in front of the door. He came near and whispered, "Dad, we're back."
"Well." Xiao Guojian's stern eyes swept Xiao Chen's face and stayed on Xu Yuchu's smiling face, with a gentle look. "Come on in, your mother stewed the soup, drink a little warm."
"Thank you, Dad." They follow Xiao Fu into the front hall. Seeing that Xiao Chen kneels down on one knee naturally to change shoes for the woman, Xiao Guojian sighs secretly, goes to the restaurant, scoops a bowl of soup and puts it on Xu Yuchu's position.
After a simple and quiet dinner, Xiao Guojian and Xiao Chen walked into the back garden one after another and took out a cigarette box and handed it to each other.
Since Xu Yuchu became pregnant, they took out their long separated cigarettes for the first time, and they had no choice but to light them separately.
"What's the matter with Liu Chengfeng?" Xiao Guojian puffed out a smoke ring and asked vaguely.
Xiao Chen coughed softly. "It's just punishment. He's not clean for a long time."
"We are old friends with the Liu family. I think that young man Ruqing is good. This time, he has been avoided. You must have kept your hand." Xiao Guojian looked at the cloudy night sky. Even though he was smoking, his mood was still as gloomy as the sky when it snowed at any time. He suddenly felt an indescribable sense of boredom.
"Is it related to your daughter-in-law's business to suddenly attack the Liu family?"
Xiao Chen chewed the cigarette holder hard, and took several breaths before he replied, "yes."
"Then I have nothing to say." Xiao Guojian looked at the place where the soot fell. The snow was dyed black a little bit. He said in a soft voice, "I didn't expect that old Liu would become like this."
He laughed at himself. Also, after a long stay in this VAT like world, who can guarantee that they will not be pure any more?
Xiao Chen answered in a deep voice: "no matter whether he is black or white, if I want his Liu family to fall down, he must deserve it."
Xiao Guojian was a little surprised in his eyes.
He knew that his son had already grown up far beyond his own appearance, but Xiao Guojian did not expect such an arrogant way of doing things.
Maybe only in this way can we truly frighten the evil spirits and win a pure land for our beloved.
Liu Ruqing was sitting beside the hospital bed, watching his father wearing a ventilator, breathing hard from the gray chest.
When he unscrewed the lid of the thermos pot in his hand, the white smoke curled up and the fragrance overflowed. However, Liu Ruqing felt sour in his eyes, bitter in his mouth and no appetite at all.
The so-called organizational investigation is just a cover. The safe at home can be easily opened, the evidence appears so clean, and the file more than one foot high Looking at the bloody eyes of the man who managed to pry open his mouth with money, tired but excited, he knew how much effort the other party had spent in order to completely overthrow his father, and he could be rated as quick.
Liu Ruqing barely raised his lips.
In the past two or three days, he has done it countless times. But apart from a wry smile, he couldn't think of any way to deal with it.Not only the cash, tickets, jewelry and gold bars hidden in the safe, but also all the company accounts, private accounts, casinos, real estate under the names of various unknown people suspected of money laundering, as well as the shopping credentials and hotel room opening records used to reward women from all walks of life, no matter what Liu Ruqing could or could not think of, all appeared in the pile of one foot high pages.
I don't think I would be upset in such a short period of time. I can't control my mood for a moment, so I choose to protect myself and fall. It's also expected.
But how long can he escape
Liu Ruqing poured out the Lantern Festival in the thermos pot, scooped up one and put it into his mouth.
It was the most normal meal he had in recent days, but it was so hard to swallow.
"Dad, today is yuanxiao." He swallowed the delicious food in his mouth and said softly, "I'm afraid you don't remember the last meal our family had together before mom died."
"The Lantern Festival that day was delicious and sweet. My mother liked it very much. Even if her stomach couldn't bear it, she ate a lot."
"I didn't expect that after such a long time, it would be in such a situation to eat yuanxiao again."
Liu Ruqing scooped up another one, chewed it and swallowed it.
"I'm going to take Meimei out of here. State Z, there is no place for our Liu family. " Being scalded by the hot Lantern Festival, he threw the spoon back into the thermos pot at will and didn't plan to eat it any more.
"This is the end of the Liu family, but it's not ours. I will arrange someone to take good care of you here, you Take care of yourself. "
The man in a coma on the bed's eyelids moved, as if to open his turbid eyes. Liu Ruqing noticed it, took a deep breath, stood up, and turned to walk outside the door.
Liu Fu's confused eyes were half open, and his eyes stayed on the thermos at the head of the bed. For a moment, he closed it powerlessly.
