His whole body almost exploded on the spot, his head was rumbling with noise, and he was forcibly taken away? Who would do this?
Just when I was feeling uneasy, my phone vibrated. I hung up the phone and saw a message. It read: If you want to see your son, go to the Xijiao Bridge immediately!
Xijiao Bridge?
Cen Zhiqiao was stunned for a moment, as if he thought of something, but before he had time to look into it, he turned the steering wheel and sped away.
The Xijiao Bridge is where City H and City A are connected. Gu Nianchen was 'blown to death' by explosives on the mountain there, so when he received that piece of information, Cen Zhiqiao instinctively connected the things.
Probably, it's that person?
"Lemon, lemon--"
An hour later, with a sharp brake sound, Cen Zhiqiao jumped out of the car.
On the bridge, a bright red Lamborghini was parked firmly on the side, and he rushed over without even thinking.
The car window rolled down, revealing an unexpected face.
She was stunned and grabbed the car door: "Where is my son, Dong Xuan, what did you do to my son?"
It was really Dong Xuan, but at this moment, Cen Zhiqiao didn't even have time to think about the whole story, he just wanted to find Lemon.
Dong Xuan smiled lowly, opened the car door and got out of the car.
Not even paying attention to Cen Zhiqiao's eagerness, he walked to the edge of the bridge.
Below is the rolling river water. It is sunset at this time, and the afterglow of the setting sun falls, reflecting the sparkling waves on the water surface.
Her face is hidden in it, which adds a bit of weirdness.
She curled her lips: "This is where my father and I saved Ayan. At that time, he was covered in blood. We all thought he was dead. We originally wanted to call the police, but he suddenly grabbed my leg.
..”
Her expression was gloomy, not as arrogant as usual, as if she was immersed in memories, and her smile was a little gentler.
Cen Zhiqiao was stunned, and the anxiety in his heart calmed down slightly at this moment.
Silently, he waited for Dong Xuan's next words.
"It really scared me at the time. His face was bloody and bloody, and only his eyes were particularly bright." At this point, she turned to look at Cen Zhiqiao: "You know, those eyes of his."
How could she not know that when the two met again, she was attracted by those dark pupils, making her suspect that he was him.
"Yes, because the burns were too severe, we took him to the United States. At that time, Mr. Dong was in crisis, and he was the one who made the plans. At that time, my father and I both wanted to wait for Mr. Dong to get through the crisis and wait for his health to improve.
Help him find his family, because he seems to have lost his memory. But he... is so fascinating that I couldn't bear to let him go, so I deliberately didn't let anyone find him, and just stayed in the United States with him."
She seemed to be stuck in memories and couldn't extricate herself, chattering almost to herself, "I thought it would be just like this for the rest of my life. He will always be He Yan and will always be by my side, but..."
Her tone suddenly dropped, and her face turned dark. She turned to look at Cen Zhiqiao. Only then did Cen Zhiqiao notice that there was hatred in her eyes, as if she wanted to eat him alive.
She couldn't help but shudder when she heard Dong Xuan's voice again: "Why did you show up, Cen Zhiqiao? He Yan is living a good life now, why do you have to come and disturb our lives..."
"I..." Cen Zhiqiao opened his mouth, and was about to say something, but was interrupted by Dong Xuan, "I checked what happened between you two years ago, and it was clearly because of you that he was injured. You made him suffer so much, why did you still
Are you going to show up again?"
Her tone suddenly became sharp, and her accusations made Cen Zhiqiao stunned. It was as if she was remembering three years ago, and her heart suddenly throbbed.
She didn't regret what happened back then, so in the past three years, she almost spent her time haunted by nightmares. She often thought that if it weren't for lemons, maybe she wouldn't be alive in this world.
But Gu Nianchen appeared again. When she got the DNA report, God knows how happy she was, but...
"I'm sorry, I just want to find the father of my child." She said.
Dong Xuan's eyes deepened: "The father of the child? Have you ever thought about whether Ayan is willing to come back to you? You have hurt him so much. Even if he recovers his memory, he will not forgive you."
"No, he will." Cen Zhiqiao said firmly.
"He is not your He Yan, he is Gu Nianchen. Gu Nianchen will never blame Cen Zhiqiao and will always tolerate and forgive. This time, it will be the same."
Her firm tone undoubtedly irritated Dong Xuan. In the past three years, she had tried her best to stay by He Yan's side. Why did this woman still swear that he would forgive him? Why did she?
She suddenly became excited, looked at Cen Zhiqiao and snorted: "But the doctor said that he may not be able to recover his memory in this life, so you should give up and stop pestering him. Get away as far as you can!"
Cen Zhiqiao's body trembled violently: "But even if he can't recover his memory, it can't change his parent-child relationship with Lemon!"
"But what if your son disappears completely? Where can you find a parent-child relationship?" Dong Xuan snorted coldly.
Cen Zhiqiao's heart suddenly sank: "What are you going to do?"
Dong Xuan smiled instead: "What I do depends entirely on you, whether to let them return to their respective places or to let your son disappear completely, you decide for yourself."
Cen Zhiqiao suddenly stared and grabbed Dong Xuan's collar: "I tell you, if you dare to touch a hair on Lemon, I will die with you!"
Dong Xuan patted her gently twice: "Don't worry, as long as you don't act stupid, I won't have trouble with a child. All I want is Ayan."
Cen Zhiqiao's hand relaxed and he felt helpless: "You are breaking the law by doing this, so you are not afraid that I will sue you!"
"This is City A, and it belongs to the Dong family. You are not a young lady from the Cen family, let alone the mayor's wife. Even if you have Huo Dongzhen to support you, do you dare to let him fight with our Dong family?"
Dong Xuan smiled nonchalantly.
Yes, does she dare, and why should she?
Dongchuan still has her own things to worry about. What's more, she doesn't know the power of the Dong family. If Dongchuan really fights with them, who knows what the result will be. And... she most
What I'm worried about is Lemon. If Dong Xuan is offended, then...
She closed her eyes, not daring to think about it any more.
Seeing this, Dong Xuan knew that she had won the overall situation, so she immediately smiled and went to Cen Zhiqiao's car to get the DNA report.
After tearing it up and throwing it into the water, he made a phone call: "Send the child here."
Cen Zhiqiao remained silent from beginning to end. At this time, she didn't know what to say, so she just stood there. It wasn't until a car carrying Lemon stopped and Lemon's voice came that she suddenly jumped back.
"Baby, how are you? Are you injured?"
"Mom, I'm fine. My uncle gave me delicious food just now." Lemon shook her chubby little hands and raised the chocolate in front of Cen Zhiqiao.
But Cen Zhiqiao threw him away, checked him up and down to make sure he was not injured, and then took him into his arms, finally putting his hanging heart back into his stomach.
Dong Xuan couldn't help but smile, and finally cast a sidelong glance at Cen Zhiqiao before getting into the car, "I really love your son. In this case, cherish your blessing and don't do anything that will make you regret."
Cen Zhiqiao didn't know when they left, but there was a buzzing in his ears, and he was a little stunned.
I also had a headache when I got home, so I gave Lemon a bath and took a shower myself. I didn’t even eat dinner, so I fell asleep holding Lemon in my arms.
She seemed to have had a long dream, in which she returned to three years ago. The figure was coming back and forth, covered in blood, getting further and further away from her. She sat up suddenly in shock.
On the bedside, her cell phone kept flashing. There was no sound because it was on mute. She took a look and found that there were more than ten missed calls, all from Huo Dongzhen and Tongtong. She calmed down and was busy.
Called it.
"Sister Qiaoqiao, where are you now? Why haven't you answered the phone? Where's Lemon? Have you found it? I just called the police, and Uncle Huo also sent people to search everywhere. Don't worry, we will pick you up right now."
Tongtong's voice was a little anxious, and she looked worried.
Cen Zhiqiao's heart felt warm, and so did his eyes.
Turning her head to look at Lemon, who was sleeping peacefully beside her, she reached out and touched his cheek. It took a long while before she regained her composure.
"Ah, I'm sorry, we were at home. A friend of mine picked him up. He was too tired from playing so he fell asleep. I'm sorry, Tongtong, for making you and Dongxuan worry."
The other end was obviously stunned for a moment: "Is everything okay?" There was a hint of uncertainty in his tone.
"But the teacher said those people are vicious and don't look like good people."
"Really, it's really okay. We're at home. Don't worry. How about you come and see for yourself?"
If it weren't for the brisk tone and frown, she would almost believe that it was really okay. Although Tongtong felt something was wrong, she didn't say anything more. She just gave a few more instructions and agreed to see her another day before hanging up.
Cut off the phone.
Cen Zhiqiao was stunned for a long time while holding his cell phone.
This is the most correct way, right? It’s good for everyone.
She closed her eyes and took a long time to exhale.
In the next few days, Cen Zhiqiao stayed at home. He didn't even go to school, so he stayed by his side every step of the way.
On the fifth day, she made a decision to leave with Lemon. She could go anywhere, as long as she left City A.
But at this time, a phone call interrupted her plan.
He Yan made an appointment with her, saying that he had something important to talk about. She didn't know what it was, or even whether she should see him again, but after thinking about it, he decided to meet before leaving.
The mentality now is probably different.
Before, she was just guessing, but now she really knew that he was him. How could her heart be as calm as water?
With this thought in mind, he took Lemon to the appointment. After all, it was time for Lemon to see his biological father again.
They made an appointment at a coffee shop near Dong's Group. He obviously didn't expect that she would bring her son with her. He Yan was stunned for a moment, but saw that the little figure had already rushed over.
"Handsome uncle, it turns out that the person mom said she wanted to see is you!"
There seemed to be an inexplicable closeness, just like his feelings for her, and he was also inexplicably touched by this child.
Bending down to pick him up, he curled his lips and said, "Hello, little Lemon, we meet again."
Such a harmonious and beautiful scene made Cen Zhiqiao's eyes heat up and he almost shed tears.
He hurriedly blinked back his tears before taking his son back from his arms.
He sat down on the sofa beside him and then said: "Mr. He, I don't know why you came to see me."
The business-like tone made He Yan a little surprised. He was stunned for a moment, and then sat down opposite her.
Then he said: "It's about the leakage of the company's design draft. I checked it in the past few days..."
"There is nothing left to investigate. I have already handed my resignation letter to Director Dong, so let's end this matter. Don't worry about it anymore." He said calmly.
He Yan was stunned.
Today's Cen Zhiqiao is different from any other time.
On weekdays, she always had a smile on her face, making people feel warm just looking at her, but today, she had a hint of being repulsive to others, and he couldn't help but frown: "You want to
Resign?"
"Yes." Cen Zhiqiao didn't look at him, took a sip of coffee and nodded.
"Why?" He clearly checked and retrieved the surveillance video based on the email address sent to Fang Miao. The person who sent the design draft was a man who had done cross-dressing. Although his face was covered by a hat and scarf and his appearance was not visible, there was no doubt that it was not Cen Zhiqiao.
.
"If it is because of that matter, the company's legal department is currently handling it and will definitely give you a reasonable explanation. You..."
"No." Cen Zhiqiao finally raised his head to look at him, but interrupted him with a smile: "That's a matter related to the company. It's your business if you want to investigate, but I have decided to resign.
Moreover, Lemon and I will leave City A tomorrow."
leave?
For no reason, He Yan's heart suddenly felt empty, as if a piece of it had been ripped out, and he felt a little strange.
His face darkened: "What trouble did you encounter? Why so suddenly?"
The sight of blood and a hint of concern made Cen Zhiqiao unable to resist, and her body trembled violently.
"I..." I almost couldn't help but tell the truth. At this moment, the phone on the table vibrated. I took it out and saw that it was a message from Dong Xuan.
She swallowed back all the words she wanted to say, and subconsciously looked around outside the window, but did not see any suspicious car. However, she still alertly grabbed Lemon's little hand next to her: "No, I just want to change the environment.
This doesn’t seem like a good fit for me.”
He Yan didn't believe the far-fetched reason.
But Cen Zhiqiao didn't care whether he believed it or not. He stood up quickly, picked up Lemon, turned around and left, completely ignoring He Yan's roar behind him.
But as soon as he walked out of the cafe and was about to cross the street, his arm was tightly grasped by He Yan: "I haven't finished speaking, where are you going?" There was obviously some displeasure in it.
Cen Zhiqiao took a deep breath: "I'm sorry, Mr. He. I'm rushing home to pack my things. Please let me go."
The stubborn and determined look seemed familiar. He Yan looked at it quietly. Unconsciously, his head felt stinging, as if countless fragments flashed by, and his hands suddenly tightened.
What does this feel like? Why does he feel abnormal every time he sees her? It is obviously a familiar feeling that makes him almost unable to control himself.
He kept speaking and asked in a low voice: "Cen Zhiqiao, do we recognize each other?"
One sentence made Cen Zhiqiao stunned on the spot.
More than just recognition, it was clearly love and pain that went deep into the bones. But if he didn't remember it, what else could she do?
He smiled bitterly and shook his head: "No, Mr. He, if there is nothing else, I will leave first and say goodbye."
She threw away his hand, hugged Lemon tightly and left without looking back, for fear that she would lose control if she stayed for a moment longer.
She almost ran away wildly, thinking all about escaping. She didn't notice the car in the lane beside them, which was driving straight towards them. When the lightning flashed and thundered, she was so frightened that she couldn't even move. She couldn't even think about leaving.
Yes, I just watched the car getting closer and closer.
suddenly--
A warm and familiar embrace rolled over her, followed by the feeling of her body falling heavily to the ground, but it didn't hurt because there was a soft body cushioning her underneath.
She didn't open her eyes, she just tightened her arms and held Nings tighter.
She suddenly recalled a scene from many years ago, when she realized the fact that she and Chu Qiao had similar looks. She and Chu Qiao were standing in the middle of the road, and a car was driving by so fast. He saved Chu Qiao but ignored her.
But after many years and going around and around, when he lost his memory, he used his body to protect their mother and son...
"Gu Nianchen..." His nose felt sour and tears fell.
For a moment, He Yan was stunned as if he had been struck by an electric shock. It was not because he was frightened, nor because of the pain on his body, but because the person in his arms was murmuring lightly. Why, why did he feel familiar?
Gu Nianchen? Who is it? Who is it? He kept searching in his mind, but no matter how much he thought about it, he couldn't figure it out.
My head started to hurt violently. I don't know if it was because of an old injury or because I hit the ground just now. It hurt, just pain...
He kept blinking and instinctively tightened his arms, but he had a headache and severe pain, and countless figures were shaking in front of his eyes. He reached out and pressed his temples, trying hard to stay awake but couldn't. Finally, he collapsed.
land.
"Bang---"
He Yan seemed to have had a lengthy dream.
In the dream, there was a slender figure, whose appearance could not be seen, but there was a giggle in the memory. She kept calling him: "Gu Nianchen, Gu Nianchen---"
It was clearly not his name, but the familiar feeling made his heart palpitate, and he opened his eyes suddenly.
What came into view was a completely opposite scene from the dream, with snow-white walls, snow-white beds, and the faint smell of disinfectant in the air...
This is...a hospital?
"Ayan, you're awake." A figure rushed to the bed and reached out to press his forehead.
The unfamiliar touch made him frown, but when he saw the person clearly, he just stopped there.
It was Dong Xuan who was standing by her side, her face full of worry.
He nodded, his mouth was too dry and he couldn't speak, so he looked around.
He remembered that he met Cen Zhiqiao, and later...
The scenes before falling asleep came to mind, and he couldn't help but widen his eyes: "Where are Cen Zhiqiao and Lemon?"
