Confucian General [Ancient and Modern]

The old man froze for a moment, then looked up at Su Cong's serious face, and let out a long breath, "I knew I couldn't hide it from your father."

"Mr. Zhou is the key target of my father and elder brother. Two years ago, the time-limited property operated by Mr. Zhou was suddenly auctioned off. After being bought by my father at a high price, he has since faded out of the business world. According to Mr. Zhou's ability, it is really difficult to let him go. People give up." Su Cong has reason and evidence, and did not say at all that his father has been secretly investigating Zhou Xian's whereabouts all these years not only for the sake of prosperity, but also has been looking for Jin Shishao who disappeared from the prison inexplicably.

If you really want to talk about the reason why Jin Shishao went to prison at that time, I'm afraid it's really hard for outsiders to tell.

But Su's father, Su Heng, and even the people who secretly wanted to win Zhou Xian did not inquire much, but they got very little information.

Given the influence of the Jin family in the capital, the sudden imprisonment of the only son of the Jin family more than two years ago is an almost unthinkable thing in itself, not to mention that the old man Jin suddenly announced his withdrawal from the world of Chinese studies.

Afterwards, the time-limited property was auctioned off, and Zhou Xian gradually faded out of everyone's eyes—the three people who had stirred up rumors in the three circles disappeared almost at the same time.

Old Mr. Jin was also helpless when he heard the words, "Shi Shao didn't have much contact with me, and you came here to look for me today, and I'm afraid you know a lot."

"I really don't know where he is now—even A Xian doesn't know." Mr. Jin coughed lightly, took a sip of tea to moisten his throat, "Two years ago he suddenly told me that he was going to the prison ... play for a while."

Old Mr. Jin twitched his mouth, "That kid has always been fearless. I was afraid that something might happen to him, so I asked someone to read his record and make sure there is no black record before I can rest assured."

Su Cong remained silent, also unable to understand what this Young Master Jin was doing.

"I saw him inside a few times, and every time I came out, I could see Ah Xian was outside, but he was obviously very unhappy. In the next few times, he even brought a child with him." Mr. Jin said here as if he was a little bit I'm sorry, and then said: "When you saw A Xian just now, you also saw that child, right?"

Su Shang nodded when he heard the words, "It's a mixed-race child...but I don't have much imagination with Mr. Zhou."

Mr. Jin smiled kindly, "That's his sister's child, who died of cancer. The father of that child didn't know who it was, and it took more than a year before he was sent to A Xian."

"If you really want to say why these two children are in this situation, I'm afraid it has something to do with that child... Oh, it's not what you think." Mr. Jin immediately waved his hand, his old face was a little red, as if I am embarrassed to say, "Although Shi Shao is a well-known psychiatrist in the world, to be honest, he is very extreme...Compared to Su Cong, it is even worse."

Su Cong knocked on the table angrily.

Mr. Jin glanced at him and ignored him.

Su Shang lightly patted Su Cong on the shoulder, and Su Cong turned his head to look at him... happily lowered his head to study the teacup, and stopped fussing with the old man.

"I don't know the exact reason. If you want Shi Shao to take the initiative, you can try to find a breakthrough from A Xian besides me." Mr. Jin also felt a little helpless in his words, "That kid Luo Luo is very sensible. , I really can't figure out Shi Shao's mood..."

Mr. Jin finished speaking, and then said: "The things you want to know are almost the same. Tell me, what do you want to do this time?"

Hearing this, Su Cong glanced at Su Shang with a smile on his face, then raised his chin slightly, "I gave the two-color brocade robe you wove by yourself to Ah Shang."

"I saw it." Mr. Jin said, "You have repeated it many times."

"Yeah." Su Cong wasn't embarrassed at all, "I'll say it a few more times to strengthen your memory."

Hearing this, Su Shang kicked him lightly under the table, Su Cong looked at him aggrievedly, but restrained a lot.

Mr. Jin watched them interact cheerfully. After a while, he sighed, "This is the right person, right?"

"It's him." There was a gentle look on Su Cong's face.

Mr. Jin nodded in relief, and then stood up with the support of the table, "It's getting late, you can go back too... I was worried that you would go the wrong way according to your temperament, but now it seems that with this child, you I'm afraid someone will take care of it, so don't worry about it."

Su Cong and Su Shang got up to send them off, watched the old man disappear behind the door, and then walked out of the small hall.

The wind is bleak outside, and it gets dark earlier in winter. Although the weather is cold, taking advantage of the dim night, many children run out of their homes with fireworks and firecrackers, playing in the designated area, while adults watch , chatted in piles of small groups, and bursts of hearty smiles from time to time.

Everyone who sees this scene will feel happy.

Su Shang pursed his lips and smiled, took a deep breath of the cold air, cleared his head, then smiled and said to Su Cong, "Go home?"

"Okay." Su Cong held hands with him, the wind was very cold, but there was a warmth in the place where the two held hands that they didn't want to let go. "Ah Shang, why don't you go back today?"

Su Shang nodded, and didn't refuse, just tilted his head and said: "If it's not troublesome, I'll stay at your house tonight, and when you return to Bieshang Garden tomorrow morning, bring those two little guys with you."

Su Cong nodded with a smile, then called home and asked the housekeeper to prepare the toiletries.

He wanted to prepare Su Shang's share at home, but Su Shang himself would not agree, but kept doing this, waiting for Su Shang to stay once in a while, such a wasteful behavior, Su Shang would definitely not agree agree.

After all, it was because of Su Shang.

"Ah Shang, Mr. Jin said, you have to take care of me from now on." Under the neon lights at night, Su Cong's eyes seemed to have a little bit of starlight. Su Shang just looked at it like that, feeling that his heart was about to soften. So he smiled slightly, "Okay, I'll look at you from now on."

The Su family expressed their incomparable welcome to Su Shang's arrival.

Su Shang also understood that the reason why they welcomed him so much had something to do with Su Cong's own temperament, so he patiently answered their questions that were similar to those they had when they were guests for the first time.

After a meal, Su Cong took a plate of peeled fruit from the kitchen, and pulled Su Shang upstairs who was smiling and talking to Su Qiqing on the sofa.

The two little guys were sleeping on the bed. After seeing Su Shang and Su Cong came back, the little beast jumped from the bed to the ground lightly without making a sound.

Grand Duke... the one who was moaning on the bed just didn't dare to jump down, his pair of black peas-like eyes were watery as if he was about to cry.

Su Shang looked amusing, but he didn't deliberately tease it, so he hugged it with its two front paws.

Then the Grand Duke threw himself on one of Su Shang's legs and started pulling, sobbing so pitifully.

"What did my mother tell you just now?" Su Cong fed Su Shang a mouthful of oranges, then ate an apple himself, and asked vaguely.

"I just said something about your childhood." Su Shang smiled, "It's just when Su Cong was young, not what you personally experienced."

Su Cong slowly stopped when he heard the words, and smiled recklessly, "Ah Shang, you feel guilty for the original Su Shang, but I don't."

"I took over all the memories of being Su Cong. No matter how good the Su family treated him, he was a born idiot who couldn't take care of himself. Even in those memories, he himself faced all the problems like a spectator. Everything. Even the murderer who pushed him into the swimming pool with his own hands." Su Cong looked into Su Shang's eyes, "He has no sadness, no joy, no joy, no anger, he is just a wooden puppet, that's all."

Su Shang sighed, "They are all poor children."

"There is no way to change this. We will have nothing else to say but to pity in our hearts." Although Su Cong was indifferent, what he said was irrefutable, "Even if I am still a What the emperor can do is limited."

Su Shang thought about it, and pursed his lips, "I'm just thinking about what I should do with Su Shang."

"He is different from Su Cong. He is a cowardly young man with self-awareness. Uncle Fang once told me that it is like his original temperament. He is grateful and thinks this person is a good person." Su Shang said that he felt helpless when he said this, "I talked to Chang Yu before I saw you. I didn't intend to be grateful to Su Shang. I have to repay the kindness of his life."

"I asked Chang Yu for an apology, but things didn't stop there. On that day, I really felt that a shackle was suddenly missing from my heart. If I could meet Chang Yu again, I would still feel sad." Su Shang said helplessly. He raised his head, looked at Su Cong's ugly face and said.

Su Cong's face turned into a vicious expression in an instant, he suddenly held Su Shang's wrist tightly, and said, "You can't disappear..."

"I won't disappear." Su Shang patted his wrist amusedly, and said, "I just want to give him one last wish."

Just like all those who have been cowardly all their lives, even if they are stronger than the other party in one place, although there is a moment of gratitude and self-satisfaction, but later, if that person still lives better than themselves, I will have a little weight in the other party's heart. If they don't account for it, then he will still be very sad.

And the original Su Shang was such a cowardly and accustomed boy.

Su Shang rubbed his forehead helplessly, put the apple in his hand into the Grand Duke's mouth, patted its head and smoothed its hair, and then said: "I don't want to take the initiative to do anything, if Chang Yu thinks that I have Threatening, if you do anything to me, I will take back Su Shang's share, and let him feel at ease."

Su Cong lowered his eyes, his expression unclear.

At this time, Su Shang patted his arm gently, his movements were gentle, "Don't think too much, it's fine."
