The farewell party was as lively as ever, but this time it was mixed with a hint of sadness.

But we are all adults now, and we don’t express our emotions that much. All our reluctance is expressed in the wine.

This time, Qian Cencheng didn't hide and drank several glasses of red wine. Of course, she had asked Qian Qing and the others for permission to drink beforehand.

Fortunately, she should be able to drink quite well, so she had no problem after drinking.

Li Sheng, on the other hand, was really drunk this time. He held Li Xiao tightly and refused to let go, crying and begging Li Xiao to take him to the capital as well.

When the song ends, people disperse.

There is always a time for separation.

We will meet again someday.

* * * * * *

I don’t feel the heat even though I’m exhausted, but I regret that the summer is so long.

The time came on June 2016, 7.

In early July, on the first working day of the second week in the scorching summer, Li Xiao and Qian Cencheng packed up their personal belongings after handing over their final work, reluctantly bid farewell to their colleagues in the planning department, and officially left Haoyue Advertising Company.

Ever since Qian Cencheng submitted his resignation application right after Li Xiao, both of them had the same understanding, that is, they would go to (return to) Beijing together this time.

The flight to Beijing has been booked. Qian Cencheng booked it together with me. The flight is at 10 am on July 6th.

The two of them walked downstairs to the company building, carrying their personal belongings. Qian Cencheng hesitated for a moment before saying to Li Xiao, "Brother, are you free tomorrow? My brother and the others want to talk to you."

"It's about this. Just now, I saw that you seemed to have something to say but didn't dare to say it. I thought you decided not to go to the capital with me." Li Xiao smiled and looked relieved.

Turning back, he said, "I'm free tomorrow. I've already packed my luggage with my mom. Did your brother tell me when we'll meet?"

"Let's do it in the morning. Come over early and have lunch at my house. Sister Ruoxin said she didn't have time to show off last time, so she'll make you a good meal tomorrow."

"Then I'll have a treat tomorrow. Okay, I'll be there around 10 a.m. then."

Li Xiao happily agreed.

He thought that they needed to have a talk. Otherwise, if he let Chengcheng follow him to the capital, his brothers and sisters might think that he was going to kidnap their sister.

Based on the few times he had contact with and observed them, given the nature of those two sister-con lovers, this kind of thing could really happen.

Let's talk about it, so he can feel more at ease.

But what he didn't expect was that what Qian Cencheng's brother and sister wanted to talk to him about was completely different from what he had imagined.

It was Saturday morning, the first day after leaving the job.

He slept in for a while, got up, had breakfast, and then leisurely went to Qian Cencheng's house.

After the door opened, apart from Sister Ruoxin's usual warm greeting, the atmosphere was inexplicably serious.

Qian Cencheng winked at him and then solemnly took him directly to the study where he had been during the previous interview. After he entered, she closed the door and left.

Qian Qing was already sitting on the sofa in the room. Next to him sat a young man whom he had never seen before. He sat upright with a sharp look in his eyes, and one could tell at a glance how powerful he was.

Only then did Li Xiao realize that the reason they invited him over this time was not just to have a simple chat about family matters as he thought.

Qian Qing spoke first: "Xiao Li, you're here, sit down."

After he sat down, the powerful young man took out a document and handed it to him: "Before we begin our conversation, please sign this confidentiality agreement."

Upon hearing this, Li Xiao widened his eyes with a look of confusion.

Seeing him like this, Qian Qing couldn't pretend to be serious anymore.

I want to laugh, but the occasion is not right, so I have to hold it back.

So he quickly explained: "This is Comrade Qian Dong from the Security Bureau. You can see his ID." Then he gestured for Dadong to take out his ID and show it to Li Xiao.

Li Xiao really looked at the certificate carefully several times. After all, what happened today was a bit outrageous.

"Chengcheng has a special identity and the content of the following conversation is confidential, so please sign this document first." Qian Dong reminded again after Li Xiao checked his ID.

After hearing this, Li Xiao was surprised, but he finally understood the reason. He picked up the confidentiality agreement, glanced through it, and signed his name.

It's not that he was careless, the main thing is that as soon as he saw these confidentiality clauses, he knew that these were solemn and serious standard clauses unique to our country.

Besides, he still believed in Cen Cheng very much and believed that her family would not cheat him.

After seeing him sign the confidentiality agreement, Qian Dong picked up another document and handed it to him. "What you just said about Chengcheng's special identity is true. This is her real file. Take a look first. It will make the explanation faster."

Li Xiao stretched out his hands and carefully took the document: "Okay, thank you!"

Then he saw the file of Qian Cencheng that had appeared in Boss Zhong's hands before, but Boss Zhong had read the electronic file at that time, while his was a paper version.

As he read through it, although it was only two thin pages, Li Xiao was shocked several times.

It turns out that her real name is Qian Cencheng, so the name she uses in the company is also part of her real name, which is understandable.

After seeing the series of deceased and sacrificed people, Li Xiao really lost his composure.

Everyone in their department knew that Cen Cheng had come all the way from Beijing to work in the Fog City because of a major change in his family.

But when the black and white words actually came into view, I felt more shocked by this major change than I had originally imagined.

Moreover, a row of “sacrificed” is enough to explain many problems. No wonder her identity is said to be special.

No, why do those two names of the deceased at the bottom look so familiar?!

In an instant, I understood!!

That’s it, that’s it!

The little girl turned out to be the granddaughter of Mr. Qian and Mr. Zhong.

It is Mr. Qian and Mr. Zhong who are written into the textbooks of nine-year compulsory education.

But I haven’t heard in the news that the two big guys have passed away?

Logically, if these two people had died, the United Nations would have had to fly its flag at half-mast. It would be impossible that there would be no news outside.

Li Xiao looked back at the words "sacrificed". Yes, there must be some confidential reason that has not been found out yet, so the country has not released any information on it.

Looking again, Qian Dong, who was sitting next to him, also explained a lot of problems.

Qian Qing and Qian Dong were quietly waiting for Li Xiao to finish reading and digest the file.

Watching him open his eyes wide from time to time, and then look as if he had realized something, they drank tea calmly, not disturbing him, and let him digest it slowly on his own.

In fact, Qian Qing and Qian Dong had discussed whether or not to tell Li Xiao some of the facts right now.

Qian Qing believes that the things that Li Xiao will face in the talent show he is about to participate in are not something that ordinary people can encounter, and the surrounding environment is also complex and changeable.
