When the text message rang, Ren Shukuang happened to be thinking of the people in the hospital. When he opened the message, his eyes changed, and he wanted to get up, but he didn't move when he looked at the three people in front of him, but he kept thinking about these days.

He and Xiao Tingcheng were just discussing the countermeasures, and he already found that the political changes were severe, and a top-down reshuffle had faintly formed. For this reason, he even had to call his father's secretary, whom he hadn't contacted for several years.

He didn't open his mouth to express his worries, but only asked about the trend, only to learn that the Huang family had unexpectedly climbed to a higher branch, and had already begun to want to share a piece of cake from the military and commercial areas of S City. The right target to start with.

As for his own father's thoughts, Ren Shukuang didn't need to think about it. He thought that he was really a homosexual as Cheng Qingyu's suicide note said, so that he would not set foot in Ren's house if he didn't marry a woman. It was okay before. I don't care about it, but now the object of marriage has become a political marriage. He doesn't know how the Ren family will be suppressed by the consequences of not agreeing, and he doesn't know to what extent.

At this moment, he has to compromise for the time being and eat this meal first, no matter it's his father's future, Xiao Tingcheng's face, or his sister, he can't leave the three of them alone.

Over the past few days, he has visited many people over the past few days, and he has taken care of everything that needs to be done. There is no disturbance, so he has to wonder if his father is pretending to be lost.

What is the purpose?Could it be against Zou Panshu?Ren Shukuang was very conceited and lived a frank life. He never hid Zou Panshu. Although there was no intimacy outside, the two banquets at the beginning, especially the groundbreaking ceremony that was broadcast live on TV, wanted to come to his father. Did you see it, did it take so long to move?

It’s hard to say that the host and guest had a good time after a meal. Huang Jingyi took several opportunities to hint at Ren Shukuang, but she didn’t get a response. As soon as the meeting was over, Ren Shukuang left the three of them and left, completely ignoring their thoughtful eyes and shouts. .

Ren Shukuang ran away in his apartment.

He thought that Zou Panshu was still packing up his things, so he asked the driver to drive directly to Yongyuan, thinking that the stubborn man was weak and had to hold on, and he would have to teach him a lesson when he was caught. With his safety in the mix, he still played with melancholy, refused to say what was on his mind, and even made himself hospitalized.

Even Ren Shukuang, who rarely showed his thoughts on his face, couldn't help being angry this time, obviously very angry.

Facing Zou Panshu's pale face, his brows were rarely stretched from morning to night. Firstly, he had to figure out the current situation, and secondly, when he saw the frail Zou Panshu, he wanted to teach him a lesson. , there was depression in my heart, and I was afraid that I would take it out on him if I couldn't hold it down, so I had to avoid him out of sight and out of mind.

However, when he arrived at the small apartment, he still couldn't find anyone.

After Ren Shukuang made a call, the other party turned off his phone, but he didn't see any text messages on his mobile phone. It was as cold as if a basin of cold water had been poured all over his body in winter.He looked at the bleak room that had been unoccupied for only a few days, sat on the sofa and waited, hoping that Zou Panshu's mobile phone was just out of power, and his fingers tightly clutched the mobile phone.

This waited from noon until sunset on the Western Hills, but Zou Panshu was still nowhere to be seen.

The community has a long history, and the trees outside the window have grown very tall. The branches that have lost their leaves are shaking in the cold winter wind. The lower it is, there is almost no temperature difference with the outside.

A street lamp was lit outside the window, and the yellow halo in the distance could not illuminate the room, and the dark shadows shook from time to time. It was the reflection of trees coming in and being refracted into exaggerated black shadows, like gods and demons dancing wildly.

Hiding in the dark night, Ren Shukuang found that his hands were shaking, which sent a chill all over his body, penetrating to the bottom of his heart.

His hands have been synonymous with tenacity and strength since he was a child. When he was [-] or [-] years old, he could even win a sword with his bare hands when he followed the special forces training for two or three years.Over the years, he broke away from training and entered the business world. Although he no longer uses both hands to fight and touch guns, nothing can escape the control of these hands.

However, not only his hands are trembling now, but his whole body is trembling faintly. A sharp pain that has been lost gathers bit by bit, first a small spot like a needle prick, and then slowly covers the whole body, spreading to every nerve ending. , not violent, but like ten thousand ants eating one's heart.

About a quarter of an hour, a burst of firecrackers suddenly sounded outside the window, waking up the person who had been sitting stiff all afternoon. Ren Shukuang closed his eyes and opened them again. The cold light was like electricity, and he had controlled his body from trembling. He started to make a phone call, calmly Orders were issued one by one.

Even though Xiao Tingcheng has been away for a few years, he can still enjoy himself in City S. His circle and Ren Shukuang's circle naturally do not intersect.

There are channels for the underworld. After a few phone calls, the street bastard Laizi in S city ran all over the street to check for something, and the bigger power leaders began to use their own channels to check someone's whereabouts.

All the investigation directions basically revolved around the Ren family, the Cheng family, and the Huang family. It was so easy to investigate this kind of place, and the progress was very slow for a while.

"Aren't you sure who did it?" Xiao Tingcheng entered this small apartment for the first time, and asked urgently before expressing his surprise.

Ren Shukuang sat on the sofa and stared at the fax machine. From time to time, new faxes would come, but every time he read them, he was more gloomy.He opened the door for Xiao Tingcheng and ignored him, and sat back on the sofa again.

"I can't see the trick, all three are possible. The time he left according to the hospital is different from the time he told me. I don't know where he was during this period, and whether he met anyone. In addition, he has obviously Something is wrong, and I don't know if someone is looking for him?" Ren Shukuang's voice was hoarse and dry, as if hissing from his throat.

"You didn't eat dinner?! You don't want to die!" Xiao Tingcheng was taken aback for a moment, and then angrily reprimanded him.

He seemed to see Ren Shukuang from a few years ago again, even worse than that time. It was only half a day since he saw him, and he realized that he was extremely haggard, and Xiao Tingcheng was the one who knew him best among all his friends and relatives. The man with a bad stomach, cursed but didn't move slowly, and rushed downstairs after putting on his coat, which was only half taken off.

He knew that Ren Shukuang definitely didn't want people to know about this place, otherwise he wouldn't have come to the door in such a situation for so long, so he had to drive to buy dinner and come back.

Each of them had two or three mobile phones ringing non-stop, and the corners of Ren Shukuang's eyes twitched unconsciously when they picked up each one, but every time it was disappointing news.

"I can't wait anymore, I'm afraid it will be too late. Why don't you call Uncle Ren, at least let him know what you really think. It's impossible for him not to notice when we investigate like this." Xiao Tingcheng decadent and weary to suggest.This was the first step in their compromise, and it made him very gloomy.

It was already past midnight, and the room was filled with smoke. They opened a bottle of wine, but the two only drank half of the bottle. Drinking at this moment was to soothe their nerves, not to get drunk.

"Xiaocheng, do you think I'm really gay?" He had been asking this question in his mind for a few days.

Ever since Zou Panshu fell ill, he suddenly became aware of his own feelings, and even affirmed his heart when the Huang family made moves. He thought he fell in love with Zou Panshu, not as he used to support a person, but As equals, two people love each other, and he even suspects that he is the one who can't do without Zou Panshu even more.

Now, the facts are in front of his eyes, the fear of losing Zou Panshu came so quickly, so horrifying, he looked up at Xiao Tingcheng, the answer was actually in his heart, all he wanted was affirmation from others.

"It doesn't matter whether you are gay or not. You just care about it if you love him or not. I don't care about men or women. I will agree with the person you approve of as my sister-in-law." Xiao Tingcheng didn't dare to urge him at this time, he could ask This sentence shows that he is serious.

This is also what he is happy to see. Ren Shukuang has had a hard life since he was a child, and he grew up step by step like a machine. He learned how to play tricks, learned superb fighting, and learned many things that ordinary people don't know. However, Xiao Tingcheng thinks that he never learned how to be a normal person, and the Ren family never taught him how to love someone wholeheartedly.

"When Xiaoyu forced me like that, I didn't have any other thoughts about him. I just treated him as a good brother. You said, how could I fall in love with this person? He is not as beautiful as Xiaoyu. Xiaoyu is The most outstanding one in the compound, even those girls can't compare; he is not as capable as Xiaoyu, you don't understand Xiaoyu always pestering me to learn this or that, but he is actually smart, deliberately pretending to be incompetent I understand; he doesn't even have Xiaoyu's background. You see, the Cheng family now dares to turn around and climb the peak of City B because of him...but I just fell into his hands. I don't even know where he got the familiarity. Haven't figured it out yet."

Ren Shukuang drank the wine in his glass, got up and went to the bathroom to wash up. What he was about to face was his father, whom he hadn't seen for several years, and his father was the most rigid and dignified. It is also difficult to bring it back safely in your hand.

Without avoiding Xiao Tingcheng at all, he directly opened the closet and took out his clothes to change into. In an instant, he was dressed in an elegant manner, hiding even the slightest decadence. He picked up the private phone on the coffee table and walked out, speaking in a very stern tone. Explaining to Xiao Tingcheng: "The phone is useless, I will go directly to see my dad. After all these years, it is time to talk to him. Keep the other phone calls. If it is not my dad, you can watch it for me."

Looking at the apartment where he was the only guest left, Xiao Tingcheng suddenly envied the two of them.

The place is small, but every place is so warm, the walls are full of photos, and some of them are actually Ren Shukuang, he knows how much Ren Shukuang hates taking pictures, even interview photos are not allowed to take people, So casually let Zou Panshu wash it out and nail it to the wall.

Seeing Uncle Ren, Xiao Tingcheng didn't know what kind of storm it was, but he didn't dare to join him. He could only pray that the gap between the father and son would be resolved.

He also knew that Ren Shukuang's decision not to join the army for Xiaoyu had seriously injured the old man. However, everyone should have their own life and should not be restrained by others, just like he grew up mixed up like a prodigal son. I haven't had a good time yet, and I can't figure out why these parents always force their expectations on their children, thinking it's all for the children's good.

After waiting for a long time before Ren Shukuang came back, Xiao Tingcheng had no choice but to pull out a blanket, turn up the air conditioner, and roll up on the sofa to rest. He knew that if there was news or someone was found, Ren Shukuang would definitely come back here, so he Even he feels comfortable staying here, well, he can sleep on the sofa.Give him two more guts, and he wouldn't dare to roll onto the big bed in the corner. For some reason, he began to yearn for that one person that he could love so much that he would risk everything.

The compound has also changed a lot, and all the traces of the small buildings that once surrounded it have been erased, changing year by year.When he came back after a few years away, Hao Ran found that the scene of a yard full of children playing together in his childhood could no longer be reproduced.

After passing through the three-story checkpoint, he advanced through the gate outside the military area, and then entered the community. Surrounded by shadows, he asked the driver to wait in the car. He got out of the car, greeted the sentinel, and then walked in.

In the past, it was his ideal to strive to reach the level of his father's generation, or even higher, to live in a house that symbolized his status. Then maybe he could still watch humans walk out of the earth with this status in a few decades.

The night was as cold as ice, and he walked through the yard to the front door. The living room was brightly lit, and the light spilled into the yard, brighter than the street lamps. He knew that his father must be waiting for him majesticly.

After a few years, since the last time they broke up, the two father and son sat facing each other on the sofa in the living room of Ren's family.

General Ren is dressed in military uniform, as if he knew that Ren Shukuang was coming. He has resolute facial features and a vigorous physique that does not match his age. It is maintained through years of continuous training. His eyes are as sharp as a falcon. His own son, he also didn't have a soft expression, the expressionless faces of the two father and son were exactly the same, but Ren Shukuang's facial features also inherited his mother's face, which was more elegant and delicate, not as sharp as his.

General Ren didn't seem to have worn any other clothes except for this green suit. Looking at his son wearing a custom-made brand-name suit, he couldn't find the solemn look that a soldier should have. The depression in his heart was even more stuck in his heart, which made him restless.He had completely forgotten that his son had not formally joined the army. In his heart, this son was born to be the successor, and he could only grow up along the trajectory of his grandfather's generation.

After a while, Ren Shukuang was still anxious, and he spoke first, and for Zou Panshu's safety, he couldn't help begging: "Dad, you know why I came. I want to ask if he is with you and if he is okay. .”

His eyes were even more disappointed. General Ren looked at this son who had lost his ideals for a man and showed weakness for a man again. He didn't even have the thought of speaking. Seeing that Ren Shukuang's eyes gradually became anxious and cold, he sighed in his heart before he asked. : "I asked Xiaoxi to bring Huang Jingyi to your place, what do you think?"

"Dad! I won't marry that woman, not before, and never in the future. I just ask you, did you do anything to Zou Panshu?" Ren Shukuang's voice was hoarse and piercing. Father, he hated it even more in his heart. He didn't understand why he had to sacrifice his son's marriage with the influence of the Ren family. Could it be that the sacrifice of their marriage was not enough, and even the marriage of their son and daughter should be measured as a bargaining chip? ?

"Is this the kind of tone you used to talk to your elders? Where did you lose the manners you were taught since childhood? Zou Panshu, Zou Panshu, in your eyes, even your father dared to yell because of him. You are lucky that he is not around I have it, otherwise you will never see him again!" The teacup in General Ren's hand slammed to the ground with a clang, and he shouted angrily.

A flash of joy flashed in Ren Shukuang's eyes, and he didn't care about his father's anger for a moment. For him, as long as his father didn't do it himself, he could deal with others.
