Chapter 135: With a child comes a bond
Zhou Xian's expression was cold, and he replied: "Of course!"
"Why?"
"We are husband and wife, I still need a reason if I want to have a child with my woman?"
Look, sure enough... Chang An closed her eyes and pressed it, although she didn't know what she was pretentious, but there was always a thought in her heart shouting, no, it was not time yet, it would take time to verify between her and this man, but she couldn't say this, and she couldn't explain it clearly.
"Wait!"
"Why?" this time it was Zhou Wei who asked her for a reason.
Chang An stood on the stairs and looked down at Zhou Xiao below, "There is no specific reason, I just think it's not time yet!"
"Then when do you think it's appropriate?" Zhou Wei's eyes were dark and a little aggressive.
Chang steadied: "Let it be!" After speaking, she turned her head and walked upstairs, Zhou Wei stood in place, so she went with the flow, she was obviously hesitating.
"Chang An!" he shouted again, "haven't you ever thought about having a good time with me?"
Chang An's footsteps stopped, half paid, she turned around, "How is it possible, you think too much!"
That night, Chang An was tossed by Zhou Wei for half a night, and almost went to half his life.
Three games in a row, each one was more ruthless than the other, and in the end, Chang An was completely unconscious, lying there and letting him do it, and after getting his fart, something was suddenly padded under the thighs.
"What?" she snorted, reaching out to twitch.
Zhou Wei restrained, "Don't move, it's a pillow!"
Chang An half-squinted, trying to stretch out and look at the person on his body.
"What are you putting a pillow on me?"
Zhou Wei leaned over, bit her neck, and put a low voice to the root of her ear: "This will go in a little more." β
Chang An didn't understand it at first, what did it mean, until she felt something trickling down, she pushed Zhou Yi away and got up.
"You're not wearing it?"
Zhou Xiancai didn't care, he grabbed Chang An's two arms and pressed her to the bed again, "Tell you not to move!"
"Bastard!"
"Didn't you say go with the flow!"
"What do you call going with the flow?" Chang An clenched his fists in anger, turning his wrist to break free, but Zhou Wei held it back and didn't let go.
There was no light on in the room, the four eyes were facing each other, and Zhou Wei was hanging above Chang'an, which was an overriding posture.
Chang An's eyes were cold, and he was angry and annoyed in his heart.
Zhou Wei's eyes were on fire, and his big palm firmly buckled Chang An, and after a while, his eyes suddenly softened.
He leaned down and hugged Chang An.
"I don't want to know the reason, and I don't have to ask what you think, I can even put up with you hiding someone somewhere in your heart, but the child's matter is not negotiable!"
With a child, she has a bond, Zhou Wei stubbornly thought at the time.
The next morning, Chang An was woken up by Zhou Wei's mobile phone ringtone, she opened her eyelids and swept them, and it didn't seem to be bright outside the window.
Zhou Wei pressed the mobile phone, probably because he was afraid of making a noise to her, got up and went to the balcony, and soon there was a sound of answering the phone outside, and after a while, Zhou Tao came back, leaned over and kissed Chang An on the forehead.
"I'm going to go out. β
Chang An was confused, "So early?"
"Something, you can sleep a little longer, and come back and bring you breakfast. β
This point is far from Chang An's biological clock for getting up, so she really couldn't open her eyes, turned over and continued to fall asleep again, Chang An woke up again It was a few hours later, an arm wrapped around her waist, and someone came from behind, bringing a cold.
"Hmm..."
She turned around and saw Zhou Wei lying next to her in a shirt.
"Coming back?"
"Hmm!"
"What time is it?"
"It's almost ten o'clock. β
Chang An squinted and looked out the window, the sun shone in, and the sky was bright.
"When did you come back?"
"Just now. Zhou Wei raised his hand and pressed Chang An's head on his chest, and wrapped his arms around him.
Chang An smelled the strong smell of tobacco on his body and felt that he was a little abnormal.
"What's wrong?"
The man who hugged her did not speak.
Chang An waited for a while, and a slight sigh came from above his head, "He Zhaoxiong is gone." β
Chang An's mind was in turmoil for a moment, and it took a few seconds before he got his head out of his arms.
"What did you say?"
"In the early hours of last night, I was rescued twice, but the injuries were too serious, and I breathed at four o'clock this morning. β
There was no sound in the room for a long time.
Chang An was next to Zhou Wei's body, he had the cold outside, a little cold, Chang An was originally very hot in the bed, but now he felt that the temperature was passing little by little.
It's October, the clouds are in autumn, the sun is still good, but the temperature is starting to drop.
The news of He Zhaoxiong's car accident was suppressed, but his death could not be hidden.
Soon the media heard the news, and the wealthy businessman He Zhaoxiong suffered a car accident on his wedding night and died due to ineffective rescue, and all kinds of news appeared in an endless stream for a while.
Yuan Xi's stock fell several points at the opening of the same day, and Rongbang was also affected because of its strategic partnership with Yuan Xi.
The original National Day holiday was in vain.
In the afternoon of the same day, the He family issued an obituary, and the news became more and more lively, He Zhaoxiong's family history, the grievances within the He family, the relationship between Fang Rushan and He Bin, and even the previous relationship between Zhou Wei and Fang Rushan were also picked up, and all kinds of speculations and rhetoric were made for a while.
Zhou Wei paid attention to the wind direction on the Internet, and Xu Nan's call came in at the right time.
"Mr. Zhou, the cause of the accident has been clear, the brake failure led to loss of control, according to the traces of the traffic police scene, it should be that the driver did not have time to react when the truck driving in the opposite direction, and the brakes could not be braked, so the loss of control rushed out of the protective fence and eventually led to a rollover, so it is very likely to be a man-made accident. β
Xu Nan didn't know about the parking lot.
Zhou Tao tapped his fingers, "What do you think?"
Xu Nan: "It's just a guess, after all, there are not many cases where the brakes fail for no reason, not to mention that Miss Fang's car is still a new car." β
Zhou Wei: "The police didn't determine whether it was man-made or accidental?"
Xu Nan: "There should be an accident appraisal report, but I can't get it, Mr. Zhou..."
Zhou: "Huh?"
Xu Nan: "I feel that this matter is a little strange, I have found out until now, there are many obstacles, and I always feel as if someone is deliberately pressing this matter." β
Xu Nan didn't know about the parking lot, so it was normal for him to feel this way.
Zhou Tao still tapped his fingers, "I don't need to know the cause of He Zhaoxiong's death, whether the car accident was man-made or accidental, it doesn't mean much to me, you just need to track the situation, and Yuan Xi's side, I guess it's a mess now, you arrange someone to pay attention to it, and tell me at any time if there are any changes, I don't want He Zhaoxiong's death to have any impact on the project." β
Zhou Wei knew very well that he didn't want to interfere in the He family's family affairs.
Two days later, the He family held a memorial service.
The memorial service was held very grandly, He Zhaoxiong had a wide range of contacts during his lifetime, and there were people in the political and business circles, so there were many visitors, and it was also a good walk.
Zhou Wei and Chang An attended together, this is a matter of etiquette, and he can't escape, but he deliberately went later and tried to avoid people and the media.
Xiao Zhao drove and arrived at the door of the funeral home, and the funeral team specially arranged for staff to guide in the parking lot, park the car according to the position of the guide, and drive out with a black body in front.
Zhou Wei subconsciously glanced at it and saw the license plate.
"Your father!"
"My dad is here too?" Chang An lowered the window, and sure enough, he saw Chang Wangde's car drive out of the parking space, followed by a guard car.
"Would you like to say hello?"
Chang An shook his head, "Forget it, the car is gone." β
Zhou Wei: "Your father has a good relationship with He Zhaoxiong?"
Chang An thought for a moment, "They are comrades-in-arms, but I don't seem to have heard my dad mention it before, and the two of them seem to have been in contact a lot recently." After a pause, he added, "But it's normal to get close to old comrades-in-arms when you're older, and my dad may not have many friends who can make friends in this position." β
Zhou Wei's eyes drooped, "So you think your father and He Zhaoxiong are friends?"
Chang An turned his head to look at him, "Yes, otherwise?"
Zhou Wei smiled, "It's here, get out of the car." β
Because it came late, most of the guests dispersed.
Zhou Wei and Chang An went over to bow and offer flowers, Chen Haodong and He Ling stood on one side, and Fang Rushan stood alone on the other side.
Chang An turned to face He Ling first.
"Condolences change!"
He Ling had already cried so much that his eyes were swollen into goldfish, and he was helped by others, and he reluctantly thanked him.
Chang An's eyes swept over and met Chen Haodong, he was not wearing filial piety clothes, he was wearing a black suit, and only tied a white belt around his waist.
He should be standing here as the son-in-law of the He family.
Chang An swallowed, "Mourning changes!"
Chen Haodong: "Thank you!"
Zhou Wei was silent.
Chang An turned around again, Fang Rushan was already sitting on the chair, wearing linen and filial piety as Mrs. He, because she didn't wear makeup, her plain face had undergone a painful blow, as if she had aged several years overnight.
Chang An suddenly sympathized with her, obviously two days ago she was still standing beside He Zhaoxiong in a beautiful way and announced that she would be Mrs. He from now on, but in just a few dozen hours, He Zhaoxiong left, she became a widow, and she was pregnant with a child in her belly.
"Condolences change!" Chang An said.
Fang Rushan glanced up at her, her expression was a little numb, but she couldn't see any sorrow in her eyes.
He Zhaoxiong's memorial service lasted half a day, and he was buried in the afternoon.
He Ling and Fang Rushan pinched up again in the cemetery, and those who stayed in the cemetery at that time were all close relatives of the He family, and some of them were anxious next to them, and Chen Haodong didn't bother to care.
In fact, it is He Ling who picks the head every time, her temperament is like eating a cannon battle, how to see how Fang Rushan is unhappy, and Fang Rushan is not a fuel-efficient lamp, relying on the fact that there is a child in her belly, and her words are always prickly, so the two of them can't wait to quarrel with each other at a glance.
Chen Haodong pinched a cigarette and didn't light it, sniffed and watched from the side, watching the two women pinch and make trouble in front of He Zhaoxiong's grave.
He Zhaoxiong's bones were not dry, he turned around and glanced at the photo on the tombstone again, thinking to himself how the old fox would feel when he saw it in the Netherworld.
At this time, the mobile phone rang, He Ling and Fang Rushan seemed to be getting more and more noisy, and Chen Haodong simply took the mobile phone and walked away before answering.
"Hey..."
"Brother Dong, the person has been found, and he has settled down according to your instructions, when do you have time to come over, he is clamoring to see you!"
Chen Haodong put the cigarette in his mouth, and his teeth grinded on it.
Not far away, the noise of two women came intermittently, and he raised his eyes to look into the distance, the mountains were undulating, and the sky was becoming overcast.
"When the night passes, let him stop doing anything else!"
He Zhaoxiong's ex-wife left very early, and died of illness not long after giving birth to He Ling, at that time, just in time for He Zhaoxiong's career to rise, he was busy outside all day, and he had no time to take care of the children.
He Bin and He Ling were almost brought up by nannies, but it can't be said that He Zhaoxiong is a completely incompetent father, at least financially he has always unconditionally satisfied the brothers and sisters, but he was negligent in discipline, so he developed their obedient and bastard character, and this kind of character is especially manifested in He Bin, after all, when his mother died, he was already somewhat sensible, as the eldest son in the family, He Zhaoxiong also had expectations for him at the beginning, and the greater the expectation, the greater the pressure, but he was not talented, and he was unwilling to work hard the day after tomorrow, and He Zhaoxiong began to be disappointed in him over timeγ
Children from single-parent families are like this, they often use perversity and rebellion to hide their inferiority, and they lack love for a long time and always crave attention, so the more disappointed He Zhaoxiong is, the more crazy he is, the more crazy he is, the more disappointed He Zhaoxiong becomes, this is a vicious circle.
After He Zhaoxiong's funeral, Chen Haodong sent He Ling back to settle down, and drove out of the city alone, about an hour's drive, and the car stopped at the door of a two-story house.
Someone had already heard the sound of a car engine coming out to greet them.
"Brother Dong!"
"Ason, what about the people?"
"The room on the second floor to the south!"
Chen Haodong followed him in, which was an ordinary house in the countryside, with two floors and a small patio.
"Has anyone found out?"
"No, this area has been demolished, and the residents have moved almost the same, so no one will notice!" The one who spoke was a thin man, Chen Haodong called him Ah Song, the two had known each other for a long time and had followed Chen Haodong for many years.
Ah Song pushed open the door, and there were seven or eight men sitting in the back room, eating hot pot together, and they all stood up when they saw Chen Haodong.
"Brother Dong..."
"Tung Brother ......"
"Brother Dong, do you want to go up with you?"
Chen Haodong raised his hand and pressed down, "No, you go on!" He walked around the table, only Ah Song accompanied him upstairs, the stairs were in the back room, and he needed to cross the patio.
"How's he feeling?"
"It's not good, I'm very excited, I've been making trouble when I come. β
As he spoke, he had already reached the door of the room, the door was locked, and Ah Song took out the key to open the door, and it was dark inside, and he couldn't see anything.
"No lights?"
"Yes, there are lights. Ah Song touched the wall twice, felt the switch turned on, "snap", the light bulb lit up, the situation in the house was clear at a glance, a few simple pieces of furniture, a simple wooden bed, the house was dirty and messy, the ground was turned over with water and lunches, and there was a musty and rancid smell in the air.
Chen Haodong couldn't help frowning, "What about people?"
"On the bed!"
Chen Haodong saw a figure nestled at the head of the bed, his hands and feet were tied, his head was buried in his knees, and he didn't move at all when he heard someone coming in.
"Why are you still tied up?"
"I'm addicted, I hit the wall and smashed things and quickly broke off the roof, I was afraid that he would kill someone, so I asked someone to tie him up. β
Chen Haodong's face sank and he waved his hand, "Got it, you go out first." β
"Then Brother Dong, be careful yourself, he's addicted, he's a madman!"
Ah Song left the room, and the door shut.
Chen Haodong paced over.
"Hobin!"
The person on the bed heard the movement and his head moved, and it took a while to raise his head, his face was scruffy, his face was full of tears and snot, and there were two cuts on his head.
Who would have thought that this thing that is not like a human or a ghost would be the eldest or younger of the He family.
It's just that the eyes that were originally as dead gray suddenly widened when they saw the person in front of them.
"Brother Dong..."
Chen Haodong snorted, "I thought you were dead!"
"Brother Dong, you save me, you must save me this time......" He Bin became emotional again, and regardless of his hands and feet being tied, he crawled on the bed and crawled to the edge.
Chen Haodong pressed his shoulder, "How can you let me save it?"
"I... I...... You're trying to find a way to get me out!"
"Where to run?"
"Whatever, you give me a sum of money, I can't stay in Yunling any longer, go abroad, right... You help me go abroad, as long as I go abroad, it's fine......" He Bin grabbed Chen Haodong's arm, as if Chen Haodong was his last straw.
Chen Haodong snorted, "You can't tell what happened, how can you let me help you?"
He Bin, who was originally holding on to it, suddenly let go.
Chen Haodong witnessed the fear in his eyes.
In fact, He Bin is a straw bag, brainless, impulsive, troublesome since childhood, a typical bastard, but in the past, He Zhaoxiong was in his pocket, cleaning up the mess for him, but now he has suddenly become like this, and he has completely lost his direction.
Chen Haodong was not in a hurry, he knew too well the temper of this young master.
"Your father has been buried today, the police have also inspected the accident vehicle, the identification report should be out, whether it was an accident or man-made, it is estimated that there will be a conclusion soon, it doesn't matter, you have to think that there is nothing to say, I will not force you, you can leave here at any time, but out of this door, I will not care about your affairs in the future!" he said as he took out a dagger and cut the hemp rope on He Bin's hands and feet, his movements were swift and neat.
He Bin was free, but he still maintained the posture of prostrate on the bed, but tears and snot flowed down again.
"Dong Ge...... Elder brother...... For the sake of my father's kindness to you before his death, you help me, you must help me......" He only blindly begged, but did not want to say the specific reason.
Chen Haodong put the dagger into the sleeve and looked at the water and food scattered on the ground.
"Why don't you think about it here, and by the way, think about how you will respond when the police come to the door! It's okay for me to be silent, but once you go in, I'm afraid I won't be able to tolerate you, I'll go downstairs and ask someone to bring you another meal." β
Chen Haodong got up and was about to go out, but as soon as he took a step, his hand was pulled back.
"Wait a minute... Tungko... I said, I said ......"
Chen Haodong grinded his tooth socket and sat back.
The man on the bed got up and touched the snot on his face.
"This is an accident, although I hate the old man, but he is my father after all, even if I mix it again, I won't do anything to him, what I want to teach is Fang Rushan, that slut, hooking up with me and hooking up with my dad at the same time, she wants to be on the throne, but she can't marry my dad for the sake of the top, what does she want to do, Sima Zhao's heart, thinking that she can cheat my dad's family property if she is pregnant?
He Bin seems to be a different person, all the decadent colors just now are gone, and his eyes are full of evil.
"So you did something in her car?"
"Yes, I want to teach her a lesson, she thinks that mothers are more expensive than children, and she dreams...... But I didn't expect it to be my dad who would have an accident in the end... I didn't expect the accident to be so serious...... Isn't it just a little sluggish braking? Brother Dong, I really didn't want to kill someone, I didn't think about killing someone......" He Bin's emotions were out of control again, after all, there were two lives in his hands, even if he mixed up, he was afraid.
What do two lives mean?
Chen Haodong took out a cigarette and didn't light it, slowly twisting it in his hand.
"Don't you have a brain? Even if you didn't mean to harm you, but you did everything, now two lives, once the police determine that this is a man-made accident, it is easy to find out to you by following the clues, what are you called? You call this premeditated murder!"
"No... No, I didn't..."He Bin was out of proportion, grabbed Chen Haodong's sleeves with both hands, he actually knew it very well in his heart, but people always have a desire to survive, and after a moment of panic, He Bin rolled off the bed with a puff, crawled and knelt at Chen Haodong's feet.
"You help me, Brother Dong... Now only you can help me...... I know you must have a way, for my dad's sake...... Oh no, for Lingzi's sake, we are also a family, you must help me......"
Chen Haodong twisted the cigarette butt in his hand.
The moonlight is quiet and hazy, and it is empty everywhere, this dilapidated small building can't contain the autumn mood, and the cold wind pours in from the cracks in the window.
He eventually got the cigarette in his mouth, the base of his tongue against it.
"Alright, you hide here for a while, I want to figure out a way!" he pulled He Bin up from the ground.
The soles of He Bin's feet were weak, choked, and sat on the side panting, he raised his hand and rubbed his face fiercely, his body was thin under the shadow of the lamp, and he was no longer human.
Heavenly Cycle, He Zhaoxiong probably never thought that he would eventually die at the hands of his son.
The hot pot downstairs was already boiling, Ah Song threw a plate of mutton into it, Chen Haodong came over, and a group of people ate hotly.
"Brother Dong, let's eat together?"
He bit his cigarette and laughed, "No need, you don't have enough meat!"
Ah Song sent Chen Haodong out.
"Brother Dong, don't you take the people away?"
"Stay here for now!"
"Do you want to find a few more people to watch?"
"No, I don't. β
"What if I run away?"
"Run?" Chen Haodong snorted, "He has to have the courage to run!"
Ah Song also laughed, "That's right, it's fatal to run out, but his addiction is a bit fierce, what if something happens when he turns around?"
Chen Haodong sighed and glanced at the black shadow on the ground, "No one tied him up, he couldn't stop him if he wanted to, you don't have to worry about this." β
A moment later he got into the car, and Ah Song had already returned.
It was dark all around, and there was not even a sound of insects.
Chen Haodong did not immediately start the car and leave, but touched the cigarette in his hand on the handle of the lighter, and just took a puff, the mobile phone rang, and a name was displayed on the screen, and his eyes were awe-inspiring.
"Hey..."
"Is the surveillance video from the parking lot in your possession?"
Chen Haodong bit his cigarette, and the carriage was soon filled with smoke, he didn't answer this question, and the other party didn't ask, but just warned in a cold tone: "I don't care what the purpose of you asked the hacker to intercept that video, and I don't care about the real cause of He Zhaoxiong's death, but one thing I must make clear, don't involve Chang An, she has nothing to do with the whole thing, so please think carefully when making any decisions, if she is hurt a little bit because of this matter, I won't let you go!"
The phone hangs up, and the sound is interrupted in the airwaves.
Chen Haodong fell out of the car window with a cigarette in his mouth and let the cold wind pour in.
He has come to this point, what he has gained and what he has lost, only he knows!
