The Deepest Color of the Night

Two months later, in City G.

Sitting in the garden, Fang Jin opened a newspaper on Hong Kong Island. The headline was bold and bold: "The Ke family's succession is in trouble again, and the high-level officials support grandchildren with foreign surnames. How will Ke Rong deal with it? "

There is nothing new in the news itself, except for the bloody drama of the rich family's succession that has been hyped up in recent days.Ke Wenlong lived and died in the sea, but Ke Rong, who was seriously injured, was rescued back to Hong Kong by his bodyguards. He couldn't wait to inherit the Wanguan family property, but all the elders of the Ke family came forward one after another to support Ke Wenlong's grandson, Gu Yuan, to change his life. Surname, in charge of the consortium industry, inheriting the incense of the Ke family.

Ke Rong and Gu Yuan are close to being at odds, how can they agree now?Immediately, the joint forces of all parties launched a comprehensive counterattack.

In the past few days, the top executives of the Ke family have stood in line, the stock price has been fluctuating, and the newspapers have exploded like bombs, and half of Hong Kong Island is focused on this matter.

In this report, the Hong Kong media further pointed out that Gu Yuan, the heir of a wealthy chaebol in the south of the mainland, was reduced to the point where he needed to change his name and inherit his mother’s family. The reason was that he failed in the power struggle with his biological father and was forced to leave.This point of view was deliberately acquiesced by the elders of the Ke family who hoped that Gu Yuan would come back to inherit the incense. However, Ke Rong stated in front of the media that this matter was purely false. Sending it to Gu's family, the anger is beyond words.

Fang Jin's gaze flicked past the text, and then landed on the large picture.

This photo is actually very blurry, and it can be vaguely seen that on the street in front of the hospital late at night, a group of reporters rushed to besiege, but a few bodyguards protected the young man with a bandage on his shoulder in the middle, striding towards a black Chevrolet parked by the roadside.

From the perspective of the photo, it is difficult to see the face of the young man clearly, but surrounded by the shadow of the lights and the crowd, the stern and straight silhouette is clearly visible as if it has been drawn a thousand times in the mind.

Fang Jin folded the newspaper and closed his eyes lightly.

"After Gu Yuan arrived in Hong Kong, he immediately contacted Chi's family through Gu Yang, and was sent to the hospital. You told us to prepare blood bags at the hospital closest to the port, but Gu Yuan's bleeding was too heavy, and he was sent to the hospital in the end. It was almost not enough, but fortunately it survived."

Aken paused and glanced at Fang Jin.

It's almost late autumn, the fountain in the garden is gurgling, and the fallen leaves are golden.The warm sunlight like broken gold shone on Fang Jin's body, but his face was as cold and bloodless as white paper, as if wrapped in a vacuum membrane, isolated from the world in this sunny and sunny scenery.

"... Who are the people standing by Ke Rong's side?"

Aken thought for a while, and based on the intelligence he had obtained from Hong Kong during this period of time, he reported the names of several companies and consortiums.

There are no threatening opponents in these few families. Fang Jin nodded after hearing this, and said: "The electronics business is from Ke Rong's in-laws, and they have business dealings with the Gu family... You will call some think tanks to come to me for discussion later. Next, find a way to compress the new project they are going to launch, kill this chicken, and at least give a warning to those monkeys who stand in line with Ke Rong."

Aken nodded and asked, "It's still the same as last time..."

"You don't need to let Gu Yuan know."

Aken sighed inwardly, but on the surface he immediately bowed and answered yes.

Fang Jin got up and walked through the garden to the Gu family mansion.

Because he didn't have to go out at home today, he was wearing a light gray cashmere sweater with the nice white collar of the shirt inside exposed at the neckline, and the slim black suit pants made his legs look particularly long; A bit like a gentle and handsome college student.

The servants who were sweeping up the fallen leaves in the garden immediately stepped aside and waited respectfully for him to pass by with their heads down.

——Almost everyone knows that Fang Jin is almost the owner of this manor now.

After returning from the sea, Fang Jin took the mercenaries back to Gu's house, and sealed off the whole mansion in the name of Gu Mingzong's injury. At the same time, he invited the Vietnamese who pretended to be Gu Yuan on the cruise ship and Gu Yuan's biological father on the helicopter to come over. Gu Yuan's biological father changed his appearance to look more similar to Gu Mingzong.

Immediately, he gathered all the security codes and vault keys, arranged to meet with all the senior executives of the Gu family consortium, and distributed the power on the grounds that Gu Mingzong was injured and needed to rest. letter of appointment.

All these actions can be described as swift and resolute, and many branches of the Gu family have not reacted, and the power reorganization of the top executives of the consortium has already been settled.

Afterwards, Akon was worried that the matter would not end so easily, but soon he found that the opposition from all directions was not as great as he imagined, and it was not even as turbulent as one-tenth of the Ke family's succession incident; Most people can accept that Fang Jin came to power and acted as the talker while Gu Mingzong was recovering from his injuries.

"I have been in charge of things like this a few times before," Fang Jin explained to him so briefly, "it's just that this time it will take longer."

After that time, Fang Jin asked him if he would like to end his wandering life as a mercenary and come to the Gu family to act as his confidant and security; Aken agreed after a long thought.

He didn't know why he felt so much admiration for this thin, frail young man in his twenties.

He still remembers the first time they met, the man came from outside the house in the heavy rain. He was dressed in black and his complexion was soaked transparent by the rain. A person.”——At that time, Aken looked at him, and he just thought that this beauty came from somewhere, and she just walked into the den of a group of murderous mercenaries so expressionlessly, isn’t she afraid of being pushed down?

But after just a few months, when he stood in front of this young man again, he instinctively wanted to bend over to him, and address him respectfully and convincingly: "Boss."

·

Fang Jin walked up the steps and walked through the living room of the mansion. The butler was standing at the stairs with his hands down, waiting. Mr. Ji is checking..."

The so-called Mr. Ji is Gu Yuan's biological father. He has forgotten everything in a daze now. Only by calling him Uncle Ji or Old Ji can he respond. Therefore, the old housekeeper who knows the inside story calls him Mr. Ji.

Fang Jin kept walking, hummed, and went up the stairs to the master bedroom on the second floor.Opening the door, I saw an elegant and kind doctor standing up from the sofa, thanking the servant while putting away the medical box. It seemed that the examination had just finished, and a nurse next to him was scooping up the medicine box for Gu Yuan's biological father. Feed medicine soup in the mouth.

"Ah, Vice President Fang!" The doctor saw Fang Jin coming in, and immediately stepped forward: "I was about to discuss with you about the test results, but I didn't expect you to..."

Before the words were finished, Father Gu suddenly saw Fang Jin, and stopped swallowing obediently.

Before the nurse could react, he suddenly let out a shrill howl, stood up dancing, and knocked over the end plate containing the medicinal soup with a clatter!

The soup bowl fell to the ground with a bang, everyone was startled, and when they reacted, they immediately rushed to appease and stop them.The two nurses managed to support the struggling Father Gu, and the servant quickly pushed the wheelchair, and it took a long time for them to push Father Gu down in the wheelchair; the housekeeper hurried forward to clean up the debris In the confusion, Dr. Zhao wondered: "Vice President Fang, look..."

"Sorry, I'm the one who disturbed you." Fang Jin withdrew from the door with a gentle and polite attitude: "——Please go ahead and treat me, I'll wait in the living room downstairs."

Father Gu had a sudden and violent attack this time, it probably took him a while to calm down, and it was already half an hour later when he was completely tidied up.Under the leadership of the butler, Dr. Zhao hurried downstairs to the living room. When he saw Fang Jin, he immediately smiled and said, "Sorry, it took a little longer, and I took a sedative..."

Fang Jin sat on the armrest sofa, put down the document and said, "I understand."

He didn't speak much, but every pronunciation was clear and concise, with the calm but unquestionable power of the superior.

——He really did understand.

Since bringing Gu Yuan's biological father back home, Fang Jin has discovered that as long as there are not so many servants around, every time he appears, Gu's father will be emotional and aggressive, and sometimes he will yell loudly, "Don't Kill me", "Don't move", and once even clearly called out Fang Xiaohe's name.

Maybe it was Fang Xiaohe who stimulated him so deeply that even after seeing Fang Jin who was similar to him many years later, he would be able to draw out such manic emotions.

Dr. Zhao came in without knowing it, and shook hands with Fang Jin attentively: "It's a pleasure to meet you, Vice President Fang, I'm sorry to keep you waiting. I did some basic examinations on the patient today, and these are some preliminary conclusions. ..."

He took out the inspection report from his briefcase and presented it with both hands. Fang Jin took it, glanced casually at the paper full of technical terms, and lightly pressed his backhand on the glass of the coffee table: "Speak, I'll listen."

Dr. Zhao also knows that people like Fang Jin will never have the patience to ask the doctor word by word to analyze those professional terms like ordinary family members of patients.Fortunately, he was well prepared, and immediately said in a calm manner: "It's like this—after my examination, I found that Mr. Ji's mental state is very chaotic, because he was frightened and stimulated after being suppressed for a long time. He didn’t get good dredging treatment, on the contrary, he was tied up with a restraint belt for manic patients all the year round, so the current result was caused by many negative effects.”

Fang Jin's eyes twitched slightly.

"For such patients, we generally recommend conservative treatment." Dr. Zhao sighed and said with regret: "Although the possibility of cure is very small, if we gradually have a positive impact on the patient in a soothing way, over time, There is still hope that it will not get worse..."

This means that it can’t be cured, so try to keep it as long as possible, and it’s best to be like this for the rest of your life.

Fang Jin's face was gloomy, "Is there any possibility of recovering a little bit of sobriety?"

"It's not completely absent, it's just extremely small." Dr. Zhao said with a smile: "And it really takes years of positive effects. The caregivers must be extremely patient and careful to ensure that the patient is not stimulated by the slightest bit. The actual operation is difficult. Very big……"

When Gu's father initially developed symptoms of schizophrenia, the Ke family probably didn't care much about him, and Ke Wenlong didn't bother to ask, so the guards asked the nursing home for a wheelchair specially for manic patients, and then tied his hands and feet with restraints. above.

Although this can ensure that he will not hurt himself when he gets sick, it will definitely have a greater negative effect on the patient in the long run. Father Gu's sanity has become more and more distorted during the years of depression and mania, to the point where it is out of control today.

Suffering for a long time, it is not something that can be changed overnight.

Fang Jin lowered his eyelashes thoughtfully.

He originally planned to tell the whole story if Gu's father's sanity improved a little bit, and then call Gu Yuan back to meet his father and son, so that everything in the past 20 years will be exposed to the world; how will Gu Yuan deal with him after that, whether to kill him or drag him out? Fang Jin doesn't care about whipping the corpse.

From the very beginning, he didn't feel that his leukemia had great hope of being cured.

And once people don't even care about death, what's the point of infamy after death?

——But the current situation is different from what he expected.

Father Gu is ignorant at all, and the only person in this world who knows the whole story of the past is himself.He couldn't find Gu Yuan, pointed at a mentally ill person who could only scream and struggle, and said that this is your father, the one you have called father for more than 20 years is actually fake; you don't even have a name on the real will, so You want to take down the strength of the Ke family now, and I will cooperate with you to hand over the Gu family...

It would be strange for any normal person to believe a single word.

Fang Jin sighed almost silently, but the subtle emotional expression disappeared in an instant, and when he looked up, he returned to the calm, self-sufficient, water-tight, demeanor and etiquette of Vice President Fang: " If this is the case, I will order my subordinates to do the same. I will trouble Dr. Zhao today. From now on, please come and check twice a week, and report the patient’s mental condition to me at any time. In addition, I will meet on Monday about the confidentiality contract for this diagnosis. Have someone send it to your residence."

This is also the practice of psychiatrists visiting the upper class. Dr. Zhao got up wisely, shook hands with Fang Jin and said repeatedly: "No trouble, don't dare to be, don't dare to be!"

·

The two exchanged a few more pleasantries, and Fang Jin personally sent the doctor out of the house.

He walked all the way to the outside of the manor, stood in the sun and watched Dr. Zhao's car drive away along the road. He didn't know what was going on in his mind, and stood quietly for a long time.

After a while, he turned around and walked towards the mansion along the wide private driveway, when he suddenly saw in the garden not far away, Aken was taking a letter from his secretary, and then hurriedly walked towards him with big strides: " boss--"

Fang Jin kept walking, "What?"

The expression on Aken's face was very strange, it seemed a little sympathetic, a little regretful, and a little annoyed that he felt sincerely wronged.He was about to speak with that annoyance, when Fang Jin gave him an emotionless glance, his gaze swept across like ice and snow, which made the mercenary leader tremble for some reason.

"I'm sorry, Vice President Fang." When he spoke again, Aken really restrained himself a lot, bowed his head and said, "It's like this, we just received a letter from the Ke family in Hong Kong, it's an invitation letter for you... "

Fang Jin finally stood still and took the beautifully printed golden envelope.

"The news just came from the Ke family that Gu Yuan decided to get engaged to that eldest lady of the Chi family, Chi Qiu, and an engagement ceremony will be held soon." Aken swallowed, and said in a low voice, "They sent you an invitation... You are invited to attend the ceremony."

Fang Jin paused slightly when he opened the letter.

To Akon, that moment seemed to be stretched infinitely, the time was so slow that he was suffocated, even his lungs convulsed and convulsed due to lack of oxygen, and there was a clear tingling sensation from his chest cavity.

—but that was only for a few seconds.

Fang Jin took out the invitation card, opened it, and his eyes fell on the title page "Mr. Gu Yuan and Ms. Chi Qiu are engaged, please come" - this row of gilt letters, without saying a word for a long time.

"...Vice President Fang..." Aken finally made a hoarse voice: "If you... want to decline..."

"Reply to them and congratulate Xinxi." Fang Jin folded the invitation carefully and said softly, "I will go to Hong Kong to watch the ceremony on time."

Aken was taken aback, only to see that Fang Jin had turned around and walked forward.

From this angle, not far in front of Fang Jin, the Gu family's mansion is magnificent, luxurious and resplendent; his steps are calm and steady, as if nothing can make that solitary figure show despondency.

But Akon caught a glimpse of the hand holding the invitation at his side.

Those fingers are very slender, even the fingertips are as pale as snow, and even make people feel a biting chill like ice carving; but in comparison, the wedding invitation looks redder, bright, festive and noisy, like It was as fierce as blood all over the ground.
