074 Kill the shadow of decisiveness
Bai Yanxi watched the floor of the elevator decrease layer by layer, and his clenched palms loosened slightly. Suddenly, she could see through the reflection of the elevator wall and see the appearance of the person behind her.
Huo Zheng and Bai Yanxi were like this, one in front and one behind, looking at each other at the mirror image of the elevator door.
It was a long time before Bai Yanxi ended this form of eye contact.
"Tang Yishan, is there any news?" Bai Yanxi could clearly sense that the blood in his body was slowly getting colder, which was caused by excessive tension.
"There is news from the front line that it is difficult to determine the location of the fishing work due to the interference of the local magnetic field, and the continuous heavy rain makes it even more difficult. Tang Yishan, I'm afraid that he will die for a lifetime. β
It's not that Huo Zheng wants to say it so thoroughly, but he is afraid that if he doesn't tell Bai Yanxi the truth, but gives her vanity hope, she will definitely do everything possible to run to the front line regardless of the consequences.
Compared to this, Huo Zheng felt that letting her know things was the best decision.
For a long time, there was no sound in the elevator.
Dingββ
The moment the elevator door opened, Bai Yanxi's body fell forward uncontrollably......
The rain, menacing, lasted for nearly a week before slowly disappearing, as if God deliberately wanted to block the rescue work, and as if it was remembering this sad accident.
It was as if everything had stopped, and everything seemed to be over......
After the rain stopped, it was as if nothing had happened, and it was still back to square one.
How many people hope that these few days are just a dream, and it will be good to wake up from the dream, but the cruel thing is that this is the reality, naked, cruel......
A month later, City A has completely bid farewell to summer and autumn and ushered in winter, as if the entire City A is shrouded in cloudy skies.
This bustling city is still noisy and noisy, but for some people, it is the enthusiasm that is extinguished by the cold winter.
In the media, there are often some international bombing news, which arouses the attention of the strong masses, but soon, this concern is replaced by the next news that comes one after another, which is the era of fast information consumption that modern people are facing.
The latest piece of news is that the black box of the plane that crashed into the sea a month ago has been recovered, but because of the destruction of the magnetic field, it is difficult to piece together complete information from it.
β¦β¦
The cold wind stirred up the thoughts buried in the bottom of my heart, bloody and precious.
In front of a brand-new tombstone stands a woman in a black trench coat standing in the wind.
In the sky, there was a gentle drizzle, and the gloomy gray sky was also depressing.
At the woman's side, there was also a man in a black trench coat holding up a large black umbrella for her.
Yu Song watched Bai Yanxi stand here for two hours.
At this time, under the long hair, the covered eyes have a different ice color from the woman's warm face.
Looking at the words on the tombstone, this tomb was made by the old man Tang, and the words "Tang family grandson" were written on it. There is no accident, this is Tang Yishan's tombstone.
Since then, a month ago, Old Man Tang received the news of Tang Yishan's plane crash, and after Yu Songna got confirmation, he fainted on the spot.
It took a whole night of rescue in the hospital to save him from the ghost gate, but everyone knew that the old man's body completely collapsed because of this time.
And the Tang family has spent the past month shrouded in such gloom.
β¦β¦
Yu Song looked at Bai Yanxi, who had just returned to China, and had a lot to say in his heart, but in the end he only said one sentence.
"Let's go see the old man first. During this time, the old man has been running back and forth between the hospital and Tang's house, and the doctor said that he was afraid that he would not survive for two years. Yu Song said this, slightly moved.
Actually, maybe people really have feelings, and the old man understands it in his heart. He didn't want to waste his time in the hospital, so he insisted on being discharged, and no one would ever disobey the old man, let alone now, so everyone had to obey him.
After a long time, Bai Yanxi nodded, left the cemetery without saying a word, and headed towards the Tang family.
Bai Yanxi returned to the Tang family, looked at everything familiar in front of him, and in a trance, he had the illusion that nothing had happened.
walked to the door of the old man's room, and as soon as he pushed the door open, he saw Sister-in-law Yang serving the old man to take medicine.
After seeing Bai Yanxi, he was surprised, and then said.
"Old man, look who is coming. β
The old man looked at the woman who walked in at the door slowly, even without the blessing of high heels, she was still beautiful.
The old man felt that Bai Yanxi seemed to have changed, and he didn't seem to be able to see where exactly had changed.
Bai Yanxi saw the old man who had lost weight rapidly in just one month, and it seemed that he had lost his previous vigor and resoluteness, and only a face that was too old to be left was left, which made people feel inexplicably sad.
"Sister-in-law Yang, go out first. In addition to being happy about Bai Yanxi's arrival, the old man had something to tell him.
Regarding Bai Yanxi's situation, the old man had already learned from Yu Song's mouth.
Sister-in-law Yang understood what he meant, put down the water glass in her hand, and walked outside, and helped them gently close the door.
"Yan Xi, come over to grandpa's side. β
The old man beckoned to Bai Yanxi with difficulty, and Bai Yanxi, who was watching, almost couldn't hold back his tears.
Bai Yanxi walked to the old man's bedside and took his skinny hand.
"Grandpa. There was a choked voice in his tone.
Bai Yanxi always thought that he was quite bearable, after all, except for the few days when Tang Yishan had an accident, his emotions collapsed, and at other times, his emotions were quite stable, at least in the eyes of others.
But when he shouted this title, he endured a month of sadness, and he was about to come out of the nest again.
"Good boy, thank you for your hard work. β
The psychological construction that took a long time to do well collapsed in an instant at this time.
Bai Yanxi, who is the mother of two children, was like a very aggrieved child at this time, lying on the side of the old man's bed and sobbing.
"Grandpa, I, Yi Shan is really gone, why, all this feels so unreal to me?"
The original Bai Yanxi, on the surface, seemed to have accepted this fact, but subconsciously, Bai Yanxi still had a trace of thoughts and a trace of luck.
In a plane crash, if the flight personnel operate it properly, how could there not even be a single survivor, and Tang Yishan has been trained since he was a child, so it is impossible for him to not even be able to open a parachute.
It is also this trace of luck psychology that has allowed Bai Yanxi to support it until now.
Bai Yanxi knows that he chooses to gamble, and there is only this probability.
As soon as she returned to China, Bai Yanxi saw the tombstone erected by the old man for Tang Yishan, which completely brought her back to reality.
"My Yanxi, it's really hard for you!"
Xu is sad emotions can really infect people, and the old man is also full of tears. However, the old man quickly came out of his grief.
"Yan Xi, listen to me, now that Yi Shan is gone, the Quartet will temporarily withdraw, but the current Tang clan in China is also completely messed up. You can't keep immersing yourself in the pain of losing Yi Shan, you have to protect his hard work and can't let it fall into the hands of others. β
The old man shook Bai Yanxi's hand heavily, as if there was a force transmitted from his body to hers.
"But, grandpa, isn't there still you, and your parents......?
No matter how you say it, China's Tang clan is also a Tang clan, and it is not an existence that can be coveted by casual people.
"It's true that the Tang clan here is also the Tang clan, but this is only in name, I asked Yi Shan to come to China to develop, originally in the name of developing the Chinese market, let him stand on his own, originally waiting for the day when he can be strong enough to completely rectify the two Tang clans, but I didn't expect it, I didn't expect Yi Shan to ......"
Moreover, the current Tang Clan, strictly speaking, is no longer something that the old man can control. And the only one in charge of it is now only Bai Yanxi.
Listening to the old man's words, Bai Yanxi was very shocked, the meaning of the old man's words, in disguise, is to say, to give Tang Yishan the greatest development space and great rights, and even allow Tang Yishan to annex the Tang clan founded by himself in the future.
"Grandpa, you ......"
Bai Yanxi really didn't expect that the old man would attach importance to Tang Yishan to this extent.
"Yan Xi, now that Yishan only has you, you don't want his hard work to be taken away by others in vain!"
In fact, the old man regretted a little that he shouldn't have brought Deping back in the first place, he originally just wanted to give Yi Shan a wake-up call, but he never thought that it would become the current situation.
"Grandpa, I can't do it, I can take a scalpel or a silver needle, but I really don't know how to manage a company. β
"Yan Xi, as a member of the Bai family, you have been exposed to these things since you were a child, how to manage them is something that has been deeply rooted in you, don't be afraid, let it go. Rather than let it be taken by someone else, I believe that Yi Shan would prefer to let it be destroyed in your hands. β
The old man has exhausted all his life, but it can only be said that fate is too torturous, and often something happens in a certain period of time, which surprises everyone.
At this point, Bai Yanxi didn't say anything, and finally sat in the room with the old man for a long time.
"Grandpa, I know what you said, I'll go back first. Bai Yanxi's slender but not weak body stood up.
The old man nodded effortlessly.
"Yan Xi, if you decide to take this path, there are some things that some people should put in the back of their minds for the time being. β
Bai Yanxi didn't speak again, and finally left the room.
After returning to Tang's house, Sister-in-law Yang was very happy to see Bai Yanxi, because the house had been empty for too long.
Bai Yanxi went upstairs, walked into the master bedroom, and looked around, with the strong aura of Tang Yishan.
Bai Yanxi pursed her lips, walked to the bar, poured a glass of red wine, shook it gently in her hand, but did not drink it, but put it on the windowsill.
Then she opened the cabinet next to her, and there were two marriage certificates lying in it, and took them out to look at the smiling bright woman and the reluctant man inside.
Slowly hooked his lips.
"Yishan, this time, I'll protect you, okay?" his fingertips rubbed from Tang Yishan's face, and he whispered softly, like a whisper between lovers.
Unlike the silent room, Bai Yanxi's mind was filled with buzzing sounds one after another.
has dried up his tears, lost the power to smile, and instead of Tang Yishan to accompany him, there are only bursts of confusion and upside-down thinking.
Perhaps, it was just a dream, a midnight nightmare. After waking up in the middle of the night, Tang Yishan beside him was still holding himself tightly even in his sleep.
If it was a dream, she really wanted to wake up quickly, and in this nightmare, everyone who was good to her left her one after another.
But if it's really a dream, why does it hurt so much?
In the days when Tang Yishan was away, Bai Yanxi didn't even know how time passed.
In December in City A, the cold wind mixed with the cold rain seems to freeze people from the bone marrow.
In the end, Bai Yanxi still chose to take off his favorite white robe and put on the professional dress of fighting for Tang Yishan.
On the one hand, Bai Yanxi must show the strength of a mother in front of her children, and on the other hand, she must also spare energy to take care of the old man who is not as good as before.
During the day, she imitated Tang Yishan in front of people, pretending to be cold and inoffensive with a strong aura, and asked Tang to deal with the elites of the board of directors and learn to deal with some of the company's business.
Bai Yanxi didn't know, maybe in the eyes of others, she had been freed from the pain of Tang Yishan's death, but Bai They didn't know that Bai Yanxi spent every night like this.
Every night, she is minute by minute, slowly counting the past, Tang Yishan's death is like a flood beast, rushing up every night, tearing her skin and flesh bit by bit.
And in the early morning of the next day, Bai Yanxi put on professional women's clothes again, as if she was wearing a piece of armor.
After exchanging sincerity with Tang Yishan, she never imagined what it would be like to leave Tang Yishan's life again......
Today's Bai Yanxi wore a black mid-length trench coat with white buttons, lined with a dress of the same color as a base.
Slowly walked down from the car that Tang Yishan drove most often, with a calm and cold appearance, just like she was facing some difficult surgeries in the past, the clouds were light and breezy, but it gave people a sense of stability and steadiness.
If there is a slight difference between Bai Yanxi and the plain Bai Yanxi, it is that in the past, Bai Yanxi was most often influenced by his profession and wore white or light-colored clothes.
And now Bai Yanxi, every day, there are only two colors on his body, black and white, dull and incomprehensible.
At best, it sounds like this, and she looks more mature and stable, but what these black and white clothes are for, probably only she knows herself.
Yu Song held the document just to the height of his chin, ignored everyone's inquiring and other strange eyes, and came to the door of the president's office.
No more, no less, three knocks on the door, as if nothing had happened, the wordless tacit understanding between him and Tang Yishan.
"Come in!" the extremely cold female voice sounded slowly.
"President, here's the document to be dealt with today. β
Yu Song neatly arranged the documents on the desk, and there was a trace of worry in his eyes.
Bai Yanxi, who hadn't seen Yu Song move for a long time, raised his head and looked at him suspiciously. In the entire Tang Clan, only in front of him, he doesn't need to be so strong.
"What's wrong?"
"Hey, this is the list you asked me to compile before, and the list of directors who have opinions about you is here. The president glanced at it. After speaking, Yu Song sighed heavily.
After listening to Yu Song's words, Bai Yanxi's hand holding the fountain pen paused, and in an instant, the pen and ink were on the paper, and an ink spot was blurred, and his eyes looked at the document that Yu Song took out separately and placed aside.
"Okay, I see, let it go. β
He knew that it was really difficult for her to stand up at such a time. Her battlefield is obviously on the operating table, but now, for the sake of the overall situation, when the pain of losing her lover has not healed, she has to take over the hot potato of the Tang family and endure all kinds of white eyes and tests.
"Does the president have any other orders?" routinely reminded Yu Song of the president before leaving.
Bai Yanxi, who thought for a while, raised his head again.
"Second uncle, has Tang Deping made any recent moves?"
Sitting in this position, Bai Yanxi finally understood that in the face of interests, there is no fetters of relatives and blood at all, and there are only thick deceit, open guns and hidden arrows.
Hearing Bai Yanxi's question, Yu Song shook his head helplessly.
Yu Song said that it was not surprising that she would ask this question, because since Bai Yanxi took office halfway and sat in the position of acting president of the Tang family, he has been criticized all the time.
And Tang Deping, who was also deep in the turbidity, and was still eyeing the Tang family, surprisingly did not do anything, and even said that he did not have any opinions.
What's even more unexpected is that on Bai Yanxi's first day in office, Tang Deping also came to offer condolences in person.
Yu Song and Bai Yanxi were prepared in their hearts, and it was expected that Tang Deping would stumble her in all aspects, but this kind of fanfare to welcome Bai Yanxi's arrival was something Bai Yanxi never expected.
Tang Deping's abnormal behavior is even more difficult to speculate.
"President, what do you think that Tang Deping wants to do? What is he planning?"
Not only Yu Song has this question, but Bai Yanxi also has it, but now Bai Yanxi has no time to think about what Tang Deping wants to do.
Bai Yanxi squinted his eyes and glanced at Yu Song's other list, and sighed.
"Forget it, now I don't have time to take care of what he wants to do, just the old immortals on the board of directors are enough for me to have a headache. β
Bai Yanxi, who has received a good education, would never say this about the elderly, but after Yu Song took office, she scolded everyone on the board of directors with righteous indignation every day, so she was exposed to it.
After Yu Song left the president's office, Bai Yanxi picked up the list on the table, took a deep breath, and then slowly opened the document.
Although he was mentally prepared, as soon as Bai Yanxi opened it, he was still filled with dense names written on this A4 paper, and Bai Yanxi's eyes turned red instantly.
In less than two seconds, Bai Yanxi's tears broke the embankment again.
It turns out that my tears haven't dried up yet!
At this moment, Bai Yanxi only felt that the whole person, from body to mind, was empty.
I'm sorry, Yi Shan, I thought I was strong enough, but I still couldn't do it.
This tear, it is, is uncontrollable!
Just this moment, just this moment, make me vulnerable, let me be negative for a while, okay?
time, I don't know how long it has been......
Yu Song saw Bai Yanxi suddenly push open the office door, and he looked calm and relaxed, and the clouds were light. Hurriedly got up.
"President, what's wrong?"
Yu Song took a closer look, only to find that there was still a faint flush at the end of Bai Yanxi's eyes.
"I'm going to convene a temporary board of directors, and I must notify all the directors who can be brought to me one by one, I remember, even if I, the president, am only acting, but I also have this right!"
At this moment, Yu Song actually felt as if he was faintly on Bai Yanxi's body, and saw the shadow of his boss's lack of decisiveness.
"Yes, let's go and inform all the directors to attend the meeting right away. β
Under the infection of Bai Yanxi, the corners of Yu Song's mouth unconsciously brought a little confident charm.
The Tang family on the other side.
The old man was looking at what his subordinates had just handed over, studying it carefully, if someone approached at this time, they would know that the dense stuff was Bai Yanxi's every move after she came to power, as well as the words and deeds of those who had opinions about her.
"Old man, you say, grandmother, can you really do it? She is just a woman, and she still has a child in her belly, so will she be too forced. β
The old man's gaze moved away from the document, looked at Sister-in-law Yang who was holding a water cup and medicine next to the bed, and took it slowly.
After all the medicine was taken, the old man cleared his throat and spoke.
"This is the fate that these two children must face, it is useless for anyone to interfere, I also feel sorry for Yanxi's child, and I also feel sorry for my great-grandson or great-granddaughter who has not yet been born, but she herself knows very well that no one can help her in the current situation. β
Speaking of this, Sister-in-law Yang was distressed with tears in her eyes.
"Forget it, you go down! Recently, make up for Yan Xi's child. β
Sister-in-law Yang nodded heavily, picked up the water glass, turned around and left the old man's room......
