Chapter 171 You are wrong, I am not right, you are ignorant and I am ignorant (24)
In the past few days when looking for Chao Ci, Zhao Yi was really anxious and crazy.
No one knew the whereabouts of Chao Ci. Their friends also thought nothing more about Chao Ci after hearing about his participation in national projects. For more than two months, none of them noticed anything was wrong. He even ran to Chao Ci.
The family asked Chao Jiandong, but Chao Jiandong was even more surprised than Zhao Yi when he heard that he had disappeared for more than two months.
Then he waved his hand to Jiandong nonchalantly and said to him: It's okay. The old man is not in a hurry, which means that boy must be fine. That boy is very lucky!
He turned around and got close to Zhao Yi again. Zhao Yi was now the real prince of the Zhao family, while Chao Jiandong was an empty shell hollowed out by his illegitimate son. Of course he was not willing to accept it.
Zhao Yi seemed to be unable to hear anything Chao Jiandong said after that.
After seeing Chao Jiandong's reaction, he suddenly felt a huge sense of absurdity and sadness.
It turns out that this is the speech of the court.
He seems to be the center of the crowd, the object of everyone's love and pleasure. He is at home in any group, cool and comfortable... but no one really cares about him.
A living person disappeared for more than two months, and no one, including friends and family, noticed him.
He used to think that Chao Ci was the most popular person. On the contrary, he himself disdained social interaction except for necessary business entertainment. But now he discovered that it was Chao Ci who was truly alienated from the crowd.
Chao Ci's circle of friends were actually built around Zhao Yi. People like Lin Yanchen and others were met by Zhao Yi when he was in junior high school. At that time, Zhao Yi had the best family background and a strong aura, so those people vaguely regarded him as
As the center. Chao Ci was dragged in by Zhao Yi. At that time, Chao Ci was not the successor of the Chao family, but an illegitimate son that no one wanted. Lin Yanchen and the others reluctantly accepted him for Zhao Yi's sake, but later because of
The relationship became more harmonious due to Chao Ci's personal charm.
But because Chao Ci came from a humble background after all, at that time Chao Ci was more like a horse boy around Zhao Yi, even if Zhao Yi himself didn't feel that way. When Chao Ci was taken back to the Chao family and became the only successor to the Chao family, they
Only then can we truly become equal.
After that, because Chao Ci had a temperament suitable for standing in the middle of the crowd, he was always the center of their circle. Everyone was happy to talk to him, play with him, and do things with him.
But these friendships are all superficial. Chao Ci has never had in-depth communication with them. They seem to be friendly, but in fact they are thousands of miles away.
Only Zhao Yi can touch his heart and soul.
His seemingly glorious and prosperous life turned out to be so desolate.
And Zhao Yi, who seems to ignore everyone, is the emotionally wealthy one. He is the only Miao Miao of this generation of the Zhao family, and every elder treats him as a pain in the ass. Those who are really surrounded by Lin Yanchen are also
Zhao Yi. There are countless girls chasing him, and even if most of them have never caught his eye, there is still Nan Xiaojin who has stumbled into his heart.
Family, friendship, love... he lacks none of them, and is even richer than 99% of people.
So before, he was clearly tempted, but he stuck to that line and didn't dare to cross a step.
Because he already had enough. Even if he might get more by taking another step forward, it might ruin everything... so he would rather stop.
Until this moment, Zhao Yi felt as if he had been hit hard, and he suddenly saw through himself.
So that’s it.
How selfish and arrogant.
His eyes gradually became bloodshot, and the whites of his eyes also turned reddish.
Chao Jiandong noticed something strange about him and shut his mouth in a sullen voice.
Zhao Yi didn't listen to a word of what he said before, and now he didn't want to delay here.
He turned around and left in a hurry.
Along the way, he drove through this huge steel city, and everything turned into the wind whistling in his ears. Only the bitter heart in his chest was the most real.
He walked aimlessly through the city, perhaps expecting that person to appear on a certain street corner.
Zhao Yi was born into a prosperous and smooth life. He had never suffered a big fall in his life. Even when he was kidnapped by his uncle when he was eight years old and his life was hanging by a thread, he was not as panicked as he was now.
Guilt is like a tide, panic is like a haze.
He claims to be Chao Ci's best brother, but after so many years, at this moment, he truly understands Chao Ci's situation.
Because in the past, he did not need to dig out Chao Ci's fragility and spend countless efforts to cure it. He only needed to enjoy everything Chao Ci had around him and make some superficial contributions.
He didn't want to take a step, thinking that he would be able to hold on to everything.
But Chao Ci is never an object. He is a human being who will be disappointed and hurt.
He will flow away from his own hands.
Finally, dusk fell. He drove around the city until there was not a drop of gas left in the car.
He called someone to tow the car, but he went back in despair.
He finally understood that his feelings for Chao Ci were never pure.
He loves him, but he is a ridiculous miser.
He stood on the empty street, and the flowing crowds and vehicles were just flashes of light and shadow in his eyes.
Ah Ci, I was wrong, I was really wrong... Could you please come back?
Where should I find you?
…………
That night, he didn't even go back. He sat on a bench at the corner of the street, staring at the fine snow falling under the street lamp, and stared at it in a daze all night.
When the sky slowly gets brighter, pedestrians on the road also appear in twos and threes.
He stood up stiffly and staggered away.
So that's it. As long as Chao Ci leaves voluntarily, no one can find him.
He is the tallest, largest, and most beautiful kite that flies. Beside him, there are countless equally beautiful kites. They fly in the same sky and look lively, but in fact he is not tied to anyone.
His only fetter was the meager kite string, the other end of which was tied to Zhao Yi's hand.
The kite flew too high, and the wind it encountered was too strong. Zhao Yi was afraid that he would hurt himself, that he would make his steps unsteady, and that the kite string that was too persistent and tough would hurt him. He took the initiative to let go
Got that line.
No one in the world can find the speech anymore.
Regret over and over again cannot be exchanged for forgiveness, it can only make Zhao Yi's heart become more and more dry.
Until a phone rang.
He took out his mobile phone and saw the string of mobile phone numbers flashing on the screen, and there was a glimmer of hope in his eyes.
It was the person he sent to find the speech.
These days, I have called him on this number countless times, but the results I get are always unsatisfactory.
But now Zhao Yi is in a desperate situation, no matter what, this is his only hope.
He was once the closest to Chao Ci. When Chao Ci left, he could find a way to get him back... no different from a stranger.
"Mr. Zhao, we found it! XX Airport, there is a flight to country D at 9:10 this morning! We saw Mr. Chao at the entrance of the airport!"
Great joy and excitement stirred in his chest.
His lifeless eyes were suddenly filled with joy.
The car has been towed away, and now Zhao Yi is alone on the street without any private transportation.
Zhao Yi hailed a taxi and asked him to take him to the nearest subway station.
Zhao Yi was sitting in the subway station, looking at the speeding scenery outside the window, with a smile on his face that was used to being expressionless.
Immediately afterwards, his phone rang softly again, and Zhao Yi picked it up. It was a photo sent by the person he commissioned to investigate.
In the photo, Chao Ci is wearing a cashmere coat and a thick scarf, sitting at the waiting seat holding a cup of coffee.
Zhao Yi couldn't help but laugh. He couldn't help but rub Chao Ci's profile in the photo.
Chao Ci was 1.8 meters tall when he was a sophomore in high school, but he hasn't grown any taller since then. On the contrary, Zhao Yi has been growing taller since his sophomore year in high school, and is now over 1.9 meters tall.
Chao Ci usually looks quite tall, but now he is wrapped in a coat and a thick scarf, and somehow he looks like a small one.
The lips were red, with a little coffee stained on them.
Zhao Yi enlarged the photo and looked at it again and again, feeling very confused.
Finally, he sighed in his heart, Chao Ci lost weight.
There wasn't much flesh on his cheeks, and now they were even more sunken. Although he still looked beautiful and graceful, Zhao Yi felt distressed.
He didn't know where Chao Ci had been in the past two months, but he must have suffered a lot and was unhappy.
Never again.
The tram was speeding, and it took half an hour to get to the airport.
In the past half hour, Zhao Yi thought a lot.
He thought about how to make up for Chao Ci, how to make him happy... He used to be an ignorant, stingy and arrogant person, but now that he has woken up, he wishes he could give everything he owns to Chao Ci in one go.
I just hope he can be happy.
He even thought about getting married.
After getting married, they can go out and relax. If Chao Ci likes children, they can adopt one. If he doesn't, they can also raise a kitten or puppy.
Thinking of this, he became entangled again. He was worried that those children, kittens and puppies who did not exist yet would take up too much of Chaoci's love, and he also hoped that Chaoci could have more bonds in life.
The subway finally arrived. He hurriedly left the station, hailed a taxi again and rushed to the airport.
The subway station here is very close to the airport. They arrived at the airport in seven or eight minutes.
He ran into the airport gate and saw Chao Ci at first sight.
Chao Ci was still sitting in the same position in the photo, but another tall man walked up not far away.
The man walked up to Chao Ci, placed a soft kiss on his forehead, then pulled Chao Ci up and led him to the security check.
Chapter completed!
