A cool rain fell, and the temperature fell into early winter.The drizzle, which seems to be mixed with sporadic snowflakes, falls from the leaden sky, cooling the city's fireworks.

Ying Shuqing stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows watching the rain, wearing light-colored underwear, which reflected the green plants in the garden outside the window, revealing a bit of tenderness.

The flowers in the garden are all withered, and the red maple can't escape the fate of withering. The sweet-scented osmanthus tree can't keep its fragrance, and nestles sleepily in the corner.But the plum blossoms at the other end are about to bloom, and the tiny buds are dormant on the branches, just about to move, waiting for a biting cold wind.

The wind moves and the flowers bloom, just like this life, only after the wind and snow can the fragrance be released.

Four hours ago, Shen Mingyang received the news that Shu Yan had been kidnapped, and then called Ying Shuqing to tell him the news.Ying Shuqing pretended to be shocked, and his tone was full of panic, while Shen Mingyang's voice sounded calm, but he spoke faster than usual, showing nervousness.

Shen Mingyang didn't want to expand the incident, and even Shen Xue's family kept this news from them.He said that the kidnappers wanted a ransom of [-] million, [-]% of which was transferred online, and the remaining [-]% of the cash was placed in a designated place, and the specific location will be notified later in the evening.After the kidnappers got the money and confirmed that there was no police follow-up, they would be released.

When talking to Ying Shuqing, Shen Mingyang was already on his way back to Mao City. The return journey would take four hours, but due to the weather, the time would be delayed.The kidnapping plan went smoothly, but Ying Shuqing was worried, because the ransom had changed from 5000 million to [-] million. With such a huge amount, Shen Mingyang might choose to call the police.

It's too risky to do so, Ying Shuqing doesn't know what Shu Yan is thinking, but under such circumstances, breaking off contact can protect each other's safety, even if he has doubts, he can't rashly contact Shu Yan.

After being knocked out by Lin Sheng that day, Ying Shuqing woke up in a private clinic. The doctor in the clinic was Lin Sheng's friend, who gave him a simple physical examination and let him go.

It was already the afternoon of the second day, but Ying Shuqing still wanted to get Shu Yan back. He drove to the suburban warehouse that was originally planned, but found that Ying Shuying had changed places.He was anxious and angry, and kept calling Ying Shuying and Lin Sheng, but there was no answer there, and Shu Yan's cell phone was also turned off.

Ying Shuqing was sore and exhausted, so he had no choice but to go home. As soon as he stepped into the house, he received a text message from Ying Shuying.

"I told him everything. He is fine and willing to cooperate. Don't worry."

Ying Shuqing looked at this line of words, and an indescribable pain suddenly came to his heart, causing him to slump and sit in the entrance hall, so painful that he couldn't breathe.He could imagine how uncomfortable Shu Yan would be when he learned the truth, which could not be summed up by Ying Shuying's understatement of "nothing".

fine?How could it be all right?Shu Yan's hatred for Shen Mingyang was caused by him, but it was himself who let him know the cruel truth that Shen Mingyang was his biological father.

Ying Shuqing was very regretful at this moment, and regretted that she had done the DNA test. Although Shu Yan would know the truth sooner or later, at least the knife that hurt people was not held in her own hands.

This kind and brave child gave him all his deep love, but he hurt him and used him. The strong sense of guilt is like the thorny flower growing on Ying Shuqing's heart, and the thorny vines tightly wrap his heart. , every beat is accompanied by pain.

Ying Shuqing sat on the cold ground in the porch until late at night, and finally accepted the reality and stopped resisting.That night, he slept in Shu Yan's room, lying on the bed feeling the remnant breath of the youth, but had a sad dream.

The time for Shen Mingyang to go home was approaching, Ying Shuqing turned around and glanced at the clock, went back to the living room and sat down on the sofa, he was preoccupied, with a hint of worry hidden between his brows, and faintly felt that something was wrong.

During the few hours of Shen Mingyang's return journey, everything was too peaceful, Shen Mingyang did not call again, and there was no movement from the company's financial side.If he asks the police for help, the police will definitely come to his door now. If he intends to obediently take money to redeem him, then he will definitely let himself go to the company to wait for him first.

But so much time had passed, and neither of the two situations that Ying Shuqing expected had happened. He was inexplicably uneasy, but he could only make himself a pot of hot tea to calm down his irritability and anxiety.

Not long after, Shen Mingyang came back. He entered the door with a sullen face, and casually threw the coat he had taken off on the shoe cabinet in the entrance.

Shen Mingyang didn't change his shoes, and just walked straight into the living room, leaving black footprints on the pure white wool carpet at the door.Ying Shuqing walked towards him anxiously, and nervously asked him if the kidnapper called again, but Shen Mingyang didn't speak, just looked at him, slowly stretched out his cold hand, and gently stroked his face.

"Shuqing, come with me."

Shen Mingyang had a smile on his face, and his voice was also soft, revealing a rare tenderness. Ying Shuqing stared at his back and stood still, feeling a chill down his spine, but still followed him.

Shen Mingyang walked into the study, and Ying Shuqing followed. He saw Shen Mingyang walk to the bookcase and take out something from a locked compartment.

"You want this, don't you?"

Shen Mingyang turned around and sat down in front of the desk, unfolded a page of paper in his hand, and laid it flat in front of him.

When Ying Shuqing saw the page of paper on the table, his expression changed involuntarily, and the hand hanging by his side clenched slightly.He recognized this piece of paper, it was the divorce agreement drafted by himself that night five years ago, with only his signature on it.

Unexpectedly, Shen Mingyang still kept it!

Ying Shuqing couldn't figure out Shen Mingyang's intentions, and her heart was suddenly suspended. In their plan, Shen Mingyang would not sign the divorce agreement on the spot until the ransom was paid.But now, Shen Mingyang took the initiative to hand over the divorce agreement to him, and even signed his name on it with the pen in his hand.

After Shen Mingyang signed the divorce agreement, he nudged it in front of Ying Shuqing. Seeing that Ying Shuqing hadn't responded, he said, "Take it, let Shu Yan come back, and we'll settle the matter."

His face was calm and his tone was extremely peaceful, as if he was making an ordinary transaction with Ying Shuqing.

Ying Shuqing clenched his fists suddenly, and the heartbeat in his chest also increased. He didn't expect Shen Mingyang to see through the situation so quickly, and a layer of cold sweat oozed from his back.

But he didn't move, he just stood there quietly, because this might be a trap laid by Shen Mingyang, and he didn't have any directional evidence in his hand now, he was just relying on self-guessing and doubting himself.

Although Shen Mingyang had revealed to himself that Shu Yan would adopt him to the Shen family, this alone was far from proving that he was the mastermind of the kidnapping case.

Maybe if he acted like a baby in front of Shen Mingyang and pretended to be innocent, he would dispel his doubts.

but--

The divorce agreement signed in Shen Mingyang's name in front of him is so tempting that Ying Shuqing has no way to resist. With it, he can completely break up with Shen Mingyang.

He really yearns for freedom too much, so he is easily controlled by the desire for freedom.

Ying Shuqing endured the humiliation and waited for five years, and the thing he dreamed of is now within reach.Although he still restrained rationally, he let go of his fist, and his fingers kept twitching, wanting to betray his master's will, reaching out to touch the light in front of him.

He thought, maybe this time he could really leave. Shen Mingyang, a person who valued blood inheritance so much, might really show mercy and let him go for the sake of his son.

Ying Shuqing tensed her body, bit her lip subconsciously, and after thinking for a long time, took a deep breath.

He decided to take a gamble, bet on Shen Mingyang's last conscience, and without hesitation, he took a step forward and reached out to the divorce agreement on the table.

But Ying Shuqing made a wrong bet after all, even if he had enough chips in his hand, he still couldn't win the bet.

Because demons have no heart at all.

The moment Ying Shuqing had just received the divorce agreement, Shen Mingyang's gaze suddenly sank, and instantly became eerie.He suddenly stood up from the sofa chair, and with a sharp pen that he had been holding tightly in his hand, he slammed it hard on the back of Ying Shuqing's hand.

Ying Shuqing let out a scream immediately, clutching his bleeding right hand in extreme pain, and fell to the ground with a pale face.
