I'm waiting for you at the end

18. Storm

one year later.

Now broadcast a piece of news: "On June 2013, 6, 23 people, including Song Jing and Song Wei, were sentenced in the first instance in Xianning, Hubei Province for the crimes of organizing, leading, participating in gangland-like organizations, and intentional homicide. Song Jing, Song Wei He was sentenced to death in the first instance. On September 36, 2013, the Hubei Provincial Higher People’s Court announced the verdict of the second instance, upholding the death sentence of Song Jing and Song Wei in the first instance, and the death sentence will be reported to the Supreme People’s Court for review.”

In the tea bar, there was a crowd of people, everyone scrambling to jump in front of the TV, watching the special news broadcast on the TV.

Song Jing, the chairman of Jinglong Group, a real rich man hidden under the water, and an "honorary citizen" of Jianghai City. When the "2008 Hurun Charity List" sub-list "Sichuan and Chongqing Philanthropists" was released, 46-year-old Song Jing became the most generous and youngest philanthropist with a donation of 1.27 million yuan; in the "2009 Hurun Charity List", Song Jing Ranked 2.09th on the list with donations of 16 million yuan. 2012 Fortune China Rich List ranked 160nd with 32 billion...

This series of glamorous names cannot conceal the background of this organization, leadership, and participation in underworld-like organizations to intentionally kill people.

"Have you heard? Song Jing's incident was a bribery video. Someone sent the video to Beijing. Afterwards, Song Jing's wife, ex-wife, and some members of the company were taken away for investigation, and even the nanny at home It's also under investigation." In the restaurant, the gossiping uncle at the same table gossiped about the promise to eat quietly.

Xu Nuo didn't say anything, just looked at the emaciated and crying man on TV, and then pinched the jade pendant around his neck.The jade pendant didn't look high-end, but he carefully put it on his neck and cherished it very much.

"Er stupid, let's go." After eating, he promised to greet Er stupid who was gnawing on the bone, and left.

This year, he left Jinglong Bio-Pharmaceutical Group, and even Jiang Hai, to work in a Shenzhen IT company.This year, he and Song Hao had no contact again.

It wasn't until Song Jing was arrested that he returned to Jianghai once.

I heard from others that Song Jing was arrested, and many people were in bad luck, including Li Shuai's father, the director of the Jianghai City Land and Resources Bureau, who was slapped with double regulations.Zhao Bin's father, a businessman in the mining business, was arrested.On the contrary, Xu Na's family escaped with relatively little loss.Cheng Chen's family was not involved either.

Song Hao didn't know what was going on.

Ever since Song Hao gave him the house in the west of the city, the two of them have never seen each other again.

Qianqian didn't know what was going on, he thought again.Since the incident between Feng Qianqian and Zhao Bin, the two have never been in contact.

Xu Nuo took a taxi.

The driver asked, "Where are you going?"

Xu Nuo is no longer familiar with this once-familiar city, he paused for a moment, and said, "Let's go to the downtown area."

The driver paused, muttered, "Go around the city?" and started the car.

The driver drove to the urban area and promised to sit in the car and watch the scenery outside.After a while, he passed the Jinglong Group, and after a while he passed the Cultural Palace, and suddenly, the building of the Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government appeared in front of him.

Qianqian wonders how things are working here?As soon as Xu Nuo thought this way, he suddenly saw a woman in red rushing out of the municipal committee building with a book in her arms.

"Stop!" Xu Nuo hurriedly shouted.

The driver stopped immediately, "wait for me." Xu Nuo said and hurriedly got out of the car.

He stood outside the car and watched Feng Qianqian walking towards him.

Feng Qianqian was probably thinking about something in her head, so she didn't notice the promise here at all.She didn't even pay attention when she passed by Xu Nuo, and Xu Nuo called her: "Qianqian." Feng Qianqian was stunned and stopped.

She stared blankly at the most familiar stranger she hadn't seen in a year.

"Long time no see, how are you?" Xu Nuo asked Feng Qianqian.

Feng Qianqian nodded, "It's okay, how about you?"

Xu Nuo replied: "It's okay. I've been to Shenzhen for a year."

The two looked at each other in silence for a while, then Feng Qianqian suddenly said: "Have you heard about Song Hao's family?" Without waiting for Xu Nuo's answer, she continued: "Don't think about it, I must have heard about it, this is big news that caused a sensation in the whole country. I too It was only after reading the news that Song Hao turned out to be Song Jing's son. But now, he probably doesn't want to be Song Jing's son." Feng Qianqian said with a sneer.

"Qianqian, don't be so mean." Xu Nuo looked at her.

Feng Qianqian gritted her teeth and snorted coldly, but said nothing more.

"By the way, you should have broken up long ago, right?" Feng Qianqian asked again after a while.

Promised silence.

Feng Qianqian sneered, "I said earlier that this kind of relationship between you can't last long."

"Qianqian, I'm sorry."

"There is nothing to be sorry about." Feng Qianqian replied frankly, "I have figured it out a long time ago. I used to be too extreme and naive, but now I have grown up." She said, showing a mischievous smile at Xu Nuo .

Xu Nuo was very relieved to see it, and also laughed.The two looked at each other and smiled. Suddenly, a male voice shouted from behind, "Qianqian, wait for me!"

"Oh! I'm chasing you again! Really!" Feng Qianqian was suddenly anxious, and after smiling at Xu Nuo, she hurriedly said, "I still have something to do, so I'm leaving first."

Xu Nuo looked at the boy who was chasing him not far away, looked at Feng Qianqian who was anxious but had a sweet smile on her face, and seemed to understand something in her heart.

Xu Nuo got into the car again, and just as he opened the door, Feng Qianqian's voice suddenly came, "Xu Nuo! I loved you and hated you, but I still hope you are happy!"

Xu Nuo only felt his eyes moisten, "You want to be happy too!"

Feng Qianqian giggled, "I will!" After speaking, she turned and ran away.

Xu Nuo got into the car, and the driver asked, "Where are we going?"

Xu Nuo stopped talking about wandering around at random, but directly gave a place name: "Qilipu Prison." He knew that Song Jing was being held there, and today was the day to visit the prison.

Why go to the prison to see Song Jing, even if you go to the prison, can you see Song Jing?Xu Nuo was conflicted in his heart, and finally went to the prison with the car dealership.

Soon, the car arrived at the gate of the prison. As soon as he got out of the car, he saw Song Hao walking out of the prison gate accompanied by Cheng Chen and Song Yun. He must have gone to see Song Jing.

The three of them also saw him, and all three of them stopped in their tracks, but it was Song Yun who ran over first and shouted, "Brother Xu Nuo, why are you here?" Her eyes were swollen, she must have cried.

"come and see."

"You have a heart." Song Yun replied.

Song Hao walked over, Dingqing looked at Xu Nuo and said, "Long time no see."

"Long time no see." Xu Nuo nodded.He noticed that Song Hao's face was very haggard, presumably because he had been overworked recently.

"Let's go have a meal together." Song Hao said.

Promise nodded.

Song Yun looked at the two people who were calm, and suddenly said to Cheng Chen, "Brother Chen, accompany me to the house to pick up some things."

Cheng Chen knew that Song Yun had always wanted to match Xu Nuo and Song Hao together, and he had been ignoring Xu Nuo, but now he reluctantly agreed to Song Yun.He followed Song Yun, but he wondered why Xu Nuo came to prison.He frowned, and said to Song Yun, "Let's go." So they drove the car, and the two left first.

Song Hao and Xu Nuo stood aside and fought.

"The car and all my dad's assets have been frozen." Song Hao said suddenly.

"It's good that you are fine, I heard that even your mother was arrested..."

"My mother is not a big deal, but she was prosecuted for concealment. She once helped hide my uncle Song Wei. My uncle, he killed people with his own hands."

Xu Nuo nodded, "I know."

The taxi arrived quickly, the two got into the car, and drove to the door of a simple restaurant, Song Hao called to stop.

Song Hao said: "I have become poor now, so I can only invite you to eat in this kind of place."

Xu Nuo shook his head, "Let me treat you."

"No need." Song Hao refused.

The promise was not kept.

The two ordered a few dishes at random, and started to eat out of hunger.

While eating, Song Hao said: "My dad, I never knew that he organized the underworld and killed so many people. Now that he has an accident, this is also his retribution. But, thinking of him being sentenced to death, not many Yuehuo is alive, so I will..." Song Hao said, his voice choked up, for the past few months, he had been tough in front of his brothers and sisters, but under Xu Nuo's concerned eyes, he suddenly collapsed.

Xu Nuo silently handed him a tissue.

"Although he is not a good man, he is a good father. He has always been tolerant of me, a prodigal son..."

Xu Nuo nodded silently.

"Although he divorced my mother, he has always been good to her. He gave her a lot of money every year, and he didn't stop until something happened."

Song Hao choked up and confided.

Xu Nuo listened silently without expressing any opinions.

Song Hao wiped his reddened eyes, raised his head and smiled at Xu Nuo, and said, "Let's not talk about that, how have you been this year?"

"I went to Shenzhen and worked in an IT company in Shenzhen. The salary is not bad, higher than here, and my life is okay."

Song Hao nodded, sighed, and said: "Li Shuai, Zhao Bin and their fathers also had accidents, and Xu Na's family did not have any accidents, but she and Zhao Bin also broke up, completely separated. Now we are all scattered. Scattered and chaotic, only Cheng Chen has been taking care of me." Then he thought of something and said, "Don't blame Cheng Chen."

Xu Nuo knew that he was talking about Cheng Chen's words when they broke up in the end, so he shook his head and said, "I haven't taken it to heart for a long time."

After finishing speaking, Xu Nuo took out a passbook from his bag, and said to Song Hao: "You are short of money recently, and I can't help you, this is the money from selling the house, a total of 65, you take it, the password is your birthday. "

The last words of the promise made Song Hao feel rare and affectionate. He was stunned for a while, and then recalled the days when the two lived in that house and got along day and night.Wasn't it a kind of happiness at that time?He didn't expect to promise to sell the house, and asked, "How did you sell the house? The housing prices have skyrocketed in recent years, so it would be nice to keep it."

"I haven't lived in it since you left, and I sold it when I saw it sad." The promise was straightforward.

Song Hao felt apologetic in his heart, and said to Xu Xu: "I gave you this house, it's just for you."

The promise was not followed, "I said no."

"You take it." Song Hao replied.

Xu Nuo frowned, "If you don't want me, you can only donate."

Song Hao was taken aback.

Xu Nuo said lightly, "I donated it to the Anmei Orphanage."

The words "Anmei Welfare Institute" struck Song Hao's head like a thunderbolt.

"You, you already knew."

"I knew it a long time ago." Xu Nuo smiled lightly, and tears suddenly flowed from his eyes, he looked at Song Hao while laughing and weeping, and said, "I knew it a long time ago, you are brother Xiaotian."

Song Hao quickly stood up from the stool, "I'm leaving." Then he ran out.

Xu Nuo grabbed him and said, "Why are you so afraid to face me? Why are you so afraid to face your own heart? Do you dare to say that you don't have me in your heart?"

Song Hao's face was pale and pale, "I didn't, in my heart..." Without you, I couldn't say anything.

Xu Nuo didn't care if he was outside now, surrounded by people, he hugged Song Hao's waist from behind, and shouted with sobs: "Brother Xiaotian..."

This year, Song Hao was 15 years old. He went to live in his mother's house. There was an Anmei Welfare Institute next to his mother's house. He was bored by himself, so he went to the orphanage to find children to play with.

This afternoon, the sun was shining brightly and the weather was fine.

When he ran to the orphanage, he saw three or five children beating a little boy around him in the corner. The little boy who was beaten was lying on the ground, trembling, but he didn't say a word or make a sound. Song Hao couldn't see it, picked up a stone and shouted at the beating children: "Hit me again and hit you." He was older than them, taller than them, and looked like a little adult.Seeing his glaring look, the beating children ran away in fright.

Song Hao walked over to help the child who was beaten, and said, "Why don't you yell? Once you yell, the adults here will hear you."

The little boy bit his lips tightly, tears welling in his eyes, and remained silent.

Song Hao Dingqing took a look at him and found that he was an extremely handsome child.Song Hao was amused by the way he was biting his lips, he laughed and said, "You are really stubborn."

Song Hao asked him: "What's your name?"

The little boy was probably thanking Song Hao for saving his life. He glanced at Song Hao a few times, then stared at his big eyes, and replied in a daze: "Xu Xiaojie."

"Xu Xiaojie, my name is Song Hao, we are friends now."

"how old are you?"

"Ten years old."

"I'm fifteen, you little kid is so much younger than me. You can call me Brother Xiaotian from now on..."

"Why brother Xiaotian? Isn't your name Song Hao?"

"Idiot... Hao is Ri Tianhao!"

"You are the fool, I am not stupid."

"You are the first stupid, and I am the second stupid, okay."

……

From then on, whenever Song Hao came to live with his mother, he would come to play with Xu Xiaojie, playing with him and protecting him at the same time.Later, Song Hao's mother's house moved to the city, and Song Hao never came to Anmei Orphanage, but he kept communicating with Xu Xiaojie.After that, Song Hao's father's business grew bigger and bigger, and Song Hao also took a lot of pocket money and New Year's money. After a year, it was seventy to eighty thousand.Song Hao sent part of the saved money to the director of the Anmei Welfare Institute, saying that it was for Xu Xiaojie, as his sponsorship funds.In this way, Song Hao became Xu Xiaojie's sponsor.

The two often corresponded, but never saw each other again, until Song Hao went abroad to study, this kind of contact has never been broken.After Song Hao went abroad, he often sent some photos to Xu Xiaojie, but Xu Xiaojie never sent any photos to Song Hao.Song Hao often complained at that time, but what he got was empty letters from Xu Xiaojie.In the letter, both of them would talk about each other's concerns. Song Hao even told Xu Xiaojie that he was gay and liked men.

This connection lasted until Song Hao finished his studies at the University of London.

Song Hao's first love.His lover is also a Chinese studying in the UK, and the love between the two is like a thunderstorm, and it is out of control.Song Hao told Xu Xiaojie all this.Xu Xiaojie saw his happiness in his letter.

But the good times didn't last long, Song Hao's lover suddenly got married behind his back.

It turned out that he had never dared to come out to his parents, so he secretly went on a blind date behind Song Hao's back. In the end, without Song Hao's knowledge, he married a woman who hadn't been on a blind date for a long time.

Song Hao was heartbroken, but he still went to his lover's wedding as before.婚礼上，恋人跟女朋友之间亲密的互动打击了宋昊，宋昊一怒之下，把两人的关系在婚礼上公开了，然后，宋昊就被恋人狠狠揍了一顿，也是This beating completely woke Song Hao up and pushed him into the abyss.From then on, Song Hao became dissolute and flirtatious, and never believed in love again.

Xu Xiaojie didn't know about all this.All he knew was that after Song Hao returned to China, he never sent money to Anmei Orphanage, nor wrote him a letter.

"You knew it was me?" Song Hao let go of Xu Nuo's hand, turned around and looked at Xu Nuo indifferently.

With tears in the corners of Xu Nuo's eyes, "I always knew it was you."

"I didn't recognize you..." Song Hao shook his head, "Say it, I still took your current name."

When Song Hao was in London, England, he once sent a letter to Xu Xiaojie, talking about his lover's promise to him, and when the two decided to be together for the rest of their lives, he suddenly joked: "You might as well stop calling Xu Xiaojie and change your name to Xu Nuo." Well, I like the name promise." Song Hao's words entered Xu Xiaojie's heart, but he himself forgot about it.

Song Hao hugged Xu Nuo suddenly, and regardless of the crowds around him, he gently hugged him like a treasure.

"I'm sorry..." Song Hao said.

"It's okay." Xu Nuo shook his head.

Song Hao let him go and ran outside, then he turned his head and shouted to Xu Nuo: "I'll come to you after I've dealt with everything."

Xu Nuo watched his receding back and shed tears silently.
