Chapter 4: The Ghost Appears

Provincial capital of G, Provincial Party Secretary Office.

Gu Yuanshan stood in front of the window, looking into the distance, the lightning and thunder outside the window, and the heavy rain was pouring down, such weather easily reminded Gu Yuanshan of the scene five years ago, pointing at God and stomping his feet and scolding.

The new secretary Yu Xinpeng knocked on the door and reported: "Secretary Gu, the investors from Taiwan arrived yesterday and are scheduled to negotiate this afternoon. Look, the weather—does it need to be changed?"

"The investor is our God of Wealth, where can we change it at will? In this way, the negotiation venue is set in the hotel where the other party stays. Let's accommodate them!" Gu Yuanshan said categorically.

"I'll arrange it!" Yu Xinpeng turned around and went out, Gu Yuanshan looked at his back, and couldn't help but sigh, thinking: They are all old people in Jindu, and they are easy to use, but when they arrive in the provincial capital, everything is new, and they always feel that they can't put their hearts in their hearts!

……

At two o'clock in the afternoon, Gu Yuanshan and his entourage sat in the conference room of the 'Imperial Capital Hotel' on time, waiting for the arrival of the God of Wealth.

At 2:15, Yu Xinpeng led the representatives of the Taiwan side into the venue, Gu Yuanshan and his party stood up to greet each other, and one of the other parties smiled lightly after entering the venue, and his eyes stayed on Gu Yuanshan's face until he sat down.

Gu Yuanshan's gaze inadvertently intertwined with it, and his heart suddenly beat wildly, his hands hung beside his legs, clenched into fists, sweat flowed, and he could wring out water.

Yu Xinpeng introduced the two sides, that person was He Jinquan, the representative of the investor, Gu Yuanshan sat down, upset, He Jinquan reminded him of the murder of Xiao Feng and Jiang Changhe, who absconded in fear of crime.

Gu Yuanshan frowned and pondered, and deeply felt that the person's voice and smile were simply Jiang Changhe's reappearance! Among the people accompanying Gu Yuanshan, all the old people in the provincial government were shocked.

He Jinquan smiled at Gu Yuanshan with a gentlemanly demeanor and said, "Secretary Gu, look up for a long time!"

Gu Yuanshan nodded in return, feeling uneasy in his heart.

The meeting focused on the construction projects of development zones in several cities in Province G, including the construction projects of Jindu Development Zone. This is the first negotiation, and it is not too deep.

After the meeting, a banquet was held in the restaurant on the second floor of the 'Royal Park Hotel' to entertain the guests. As the supreme leader of the host country, Gu Yuanshan raised his glass to welcome and thank the guests.

The atmosphere of the banquet seemed to be harmonious, but in fact it was secretly turbulent, He Jinquan walked to Gu Yuanshan with a wine glass, and said with a smile: "Secretary Gu, He Mou respects you with a glass, and wishes you a happy cooperation in advance!"

Gu Yuanshan beat a drum in his heart, pretending to be calm and raising a glass to drink with He Jinquan, trying to maintain normalcy as much as possible.

He Jinquan leaned close to Gu Yuanshan's ear and praised in a low voice: "Secretary Gu is refreshing! I believe we will become friends!"

Even though Gu Yuanshan's heart was full of resentment, his face did not change, and he replied with a smile: "The people of G Province are hospitable, this must be the best investment place for Mr. He, I believe that after a long time, Mr. He will definitely not be disappointed!"

"With Secretary Gu in charge, I naturally believe it!" He Jinquan always kept smiling and returned to his seat.

At the banquet, Gu Yuanshan controlled the amount of alcohol and emotions, and He Jinquan also intentionally or unintentionally stopped his subordinates from drinking, even so, everyone still survived for a few hours.

At the end of the day, it was still pouring rain in the sky, Gu Yuanshan took the driver halfway down the road, and walked in the heavy rain on foot, he had to make himself sober.

Along the way, Gu Yuanshan was thinking: There is no doubt that He Jinquan is the incarnation of Jiang Changhe, he just changed his identity, and he didn't even bother to change his face! Jiang Changhe went and returned, what did he mean? Is it really just to come back to ask for money? It's not that simple-

Looking up at the sky, Gu Yuanshan shouted in his heart: God, you have only let me have a few days of peace?

When he saw the face of Jiang Changhe, who had a new identity, Gu Yuanshan knew that the peaceful and comfortable days were over, and his peaceful years were over. Perhaps, Jiang Changhe's appearance is just the beginning, and what will follow will be hurricanes; those who should appear and those who should not appear will come to hear the sound and surround him, all of them want a piece of the pie-

Gu Yuanshan returned home wet, sneezing constantly, Li Fenglan said anxiously: "What's wrong with you? It's raining, why are you crazy!"

Gu Yuanshan waved his hand tiredly, and said in a hoarse voice: "I'm sleeping in the study today, don't disturb me!"

"Isn't your work going well, I'll boil you a little ginger soup to dispel the cold!" Li Fenglan asked with concern.

"Lao Tzu told you not to bother me!" Gu Yuanshan yelled at Li Fenglan viciously, and went upstairs angrily.

Li Fenglan chased to the top of the stairs and looked at Gu Yuanshan's back in a daze, where he passed, the ground was full of droplets.

Since Li Fenglan was pregnant, Gu Yuanshan had never lost his temper with her again, and today, he was indeed very abnormal. Li Fenglan was worried, she was afraid that something would happen to Gu Yuanshan, and she and her daughter were counting on him to live.

……

Gu Yuanshan stood under the sprinkler, letting the hot water wash away the panic in his heart, and couldn't help but ask himself: "Why did I react so violently when I saw Jiang Changhe? Am I afraid?"

After a long time, Gu Yuanshan sighed deeply and said, "Gu Yuanshan, you are old! If you are asked to fight and kill again, can you do it?"

Gu Yuanshan stood under the sprinkler head for an hour, and Li Fenglan walked around the bedroom, like ants on a hot pot. Hearing the sound of Gu Yuanshan opening the door and coming out, she hurriedly hid in Huang Jipeng's bedroom.

Now, Huang Jipeng is in his third year at the School of Political Science and Law, and he is about to start an internship.

Tom – Tom – Tom – Tom –

The sound of Gu Yuanshan's footsteps going downstairs came, Li Fenglan covered her chest like a rabbit, tiptoed out, and hid in the railing of the corridor to look down.

Seeing Gu Yuanshan carrying a bottle of red wine into the study, Li Fenglan walked into the bedroom sadly, looking at the sleeping girl on the crib in a daze.

Li Fenglan knew that Gu Yuanshan must have encountered a great difficulty, after moving to the provincial capital for such a long time, Gu Yuanshan never drank alone when he returned home, except for socializing and drinking outside.

Li Fenglan was anxious, but she had no way to relieve Gu Yuanshan, so she could only blame herself for being incompetent, except for taking care of housework and taking care of the baby, there was no place for it.

Invisibly, Li Fenglan had an inferiority complex deep in her heart, feeling that she was not worthy of Gu Yuanshan at all, he should have found a woman who matched him in all aspects, but God was dizzy, and tied two people who did not match each other.

……

In the study, Gu Yuanshan poured red wine into his throat one after another, and the scene of Xiao Feng being pushed down by Jiang Changhe from a height of nearly 100 meters shook in front of his eyes, everything seemed to happen yesterday.

Gu Yuanshan felt that it was not enjoyable, so he grabbed the wine bottle, held it in his hand, and blew on the bottle, making a gurgling swallowing sound in his throat.

Recalling Jiang Changhe's hideous face at that time, Gu Yuanshan couldn't help but gasp, panicked in his heart, and kept asking himself: What did Jiang Changhe come back for? I'm afraid it's not just to make money, is it to avenge his son Jiang Xin - the golden retriever is dead, then, his target is me?

Thinking of Xiao Feng's tragic death, he inadvertently evoked Gu Yuanshan's black memories again, and those people and things that had been driven to the hidden place in his heart with great difficulty were dug up again and placed in front of him with blood.

Not to mention far away, just talk about the blood relatives, the half-brother Huang Guangzhi and his wife, the half-brother Huang Guangxuan, and the biological mother who gave him life, all of whom were killed by themselves-

Gu Yuanshan stretched out his hands, stared at his blood-red eyes, his body couldn't help but tremble, he saw that his hands were stained with blood, Jiang Xin's eyes turned in a circle in his palm, fell to the ground, rolled his bones, got under the table, and disappeared.

Xie Weihong was covered with wounds, gurgling out of blood, his eyes were full of resentment, dragging the blood marks step by step, walking towards him, opening his bloody mouth, as if he was about to swallow him in one bite.

The golden retriever covered the black hole through which the bullet pierced, stared at him with wide eyes, and stretched out his hand towards him, which seemed to be able to grow, and in the blink of an eye, it reached in front of him—

Ahhh

Gu Yuanshan shouted frantically, he couldn't count how many lives he had mutilated in the twenty years he had stayed in Jindu.

Every living being who was brutalized to death by Gu Yuanshan seemed to be standing in front of him alive at this moment, waving their teeth and claws towards him-

"Get out of the way—get out of the way—get out of the way-" Gu Yuanshan waved his fists, smashed from side to side, raised his feet and kept kicking, one was careless, the chair overturned, and he fell heavily to the ground.

The wine bottle fell down and smashed on Gu Yuanshan's chest, and the red wine spilled all over him, and suddenly, he was like those ghosts with blood-red eyes, dripping with blood all over his body.

Gu Yuanshan had never been so afraid, over the years, he had never been entangled by those who died under his hands, and he had not even dreamed of any lonely ghosts, as if they had never thought of coming to him to ask for their lives.

At this moment, all the unjust souls went out collectively, as if they had gathered in advance and discussed. Gu Yuanshan had an unimaginable thought in his heart, Jiang Changhe was the head of the ghost, he could instruct them to do anything, even if it cost him Gu Yuanshan's life.

"Far Mountain-Far Mountain-you open the door-" Li Fenglan knocked on the door anxiously and shouted, she was alarmed by Gu Yuanshan's terrifying scream.

Gu Yuanshan got up from the ground, unable to tell whether it was a dream or reality, he kicked the wine bottle on the ground fiercely.

Bang - bang -

The wine bottle hit the glass of the bookcase, fell to the ground, and smashed to pieces, and the glass shards on the bookcase also flew on the ground, making a crisp sound.

"Far Mountain-Far Mountain-Don't scare me, open the door quickly!" Li Fenglan's voice slamming the door became more and more urgent, Gu Yuanshan was sure that the countless ghosts in front of him disappeared without a trace.

Gu Yuanshan sorted out his emotions, walked over and opened the door, and said apologetically: "I accidentally broke something, it scared you!"

"It's okay, you go change your clothes first, and I'll clean up. Li Fenglan looked at Gu Yuanshan, whose face was pale, and felt pain in her heart.

Gu Yuanshan stopped talking, went upstairs without making a sound, and when Li Fenglan finished cleaning up the mess and walked into the bedroom, he was already asleep like a baby.
