Chapter 47: Breaking
Coming out of Fenghui, Jian went directly to the Jian family's old house as promised.
The old man had just had breakfast, and was about to go out for a walk at this time, when he saw Jian Ruyue's face was happy.
But when he saw the dark circles on his granddaughter's face, he took a beating on crutches and said to the housekeeper, "Go and serve some porridge to the girl!"
Hearing this, Jane's nose was sour, but she still had a disguised smile on her face.
In fact, when she came out of Fenghui, she was really confused, and felt that there was no place for herself, but in the end she ran to the old man.
Grandpa is the warmest existence in her heart.
She ran to the old man's side with a smile and said flatteringly, "Grandpa, how do you know that I came over to eat?"
The old man snorted coldly and said, "It's not promising...... Come and sit!"
Jane sat down at the table obediently like a schoolboy.
In fact, she didn't have much appetite, but under the old man's watch, she still drank a bowl of porridge and ate two steamed buns, and when she finally put down the bowl, the old man still thought she had eaten less.
Jian pretended to be silent as promised, but the old man gently tapped his crutches and said, "Go out for a walk with me!"
"Good!"
The old house of the Jian family was left by the ancestors, and the people who live there now were built later, and the real ancestral house is actually in the backyard.
When the old man walks, he likes to walk back and forth around the buildings in the backyard.
Jian Ruyue was in a mess, but after following the old man for a few laps, her heart slowly sank.
"Grandpa, do you really think I'm unproductive?"
After a long time, Jane asked the old man as promised.
The old man did not answer immediately, but sighed and told her a story.
"Your grandmother and I are classmates in the same school, every day in class, I always can't help but want to sneak a look at her, and I always want to find an excuse to talk to her after school, but before the words are called, she is picked up by the family car!"
"Later, I learned that she was the daughter of the landlord's family, and the food at home was the best, and although I was a member of the Jian family, the Jian family had long been an empty shell. ”
Speaking of this, the old man paused.
Jane asked, "What about later?"
"Later, ah......" the old man raised his head to look at the gray sky, and said, "In that turbulent era, there were a few who really kept their homes. ”
"Their family is gone, and ours is ...... Burn and burn, destroy and destroy!" the old man seemed to remember some tragic past, and his eyes were red, "Who knew that I was alone with her, kneeling on the stage of the criticism conference, and the first thing I said to her almost became the last sentence." ”
I said, "I am pleased with you, and there was shock and joy in her eyes, but in the end, everything turned gloomy. ”
Listening to the old man's trembling voice, it was hard for Jian Ruyue to imagine how they came over in that era.
"Later, we were sent to the countryside and have not been heard from since. ”
"But thankfully, we are all alive, and after five years, I saw her again, and after so much experience, her eyes still shine. ”
The old man suddenly laughed and said, "She is not married, and I am not married." ”
The bitterness is sweet, and the person who is waiting is also waiting for himself.
She was not married, he was not married...... Is there anything luckier than that?
"Girl, although you young people always say that it is better to strike first, sometimes it is more meaningful to wait than to start!" the old man sighed, looked at Jian as promised, and said, "Walk with me again!"
On the way back from the backyard, Jane suddenly said to the old man, "But grandpa, I'm afraid!"
Before the old man could speak, Jian continued as promised, "But I can't let it go!"
Since you can't put it down, hide it...... Guarding the clouds, see the moon.
"If you can't put it down, keep it!"
Jian Ruyu was stunned for a moment, "Grandpa, don't you object?"
The old man let out a long sigh, "I'll let you give up, will you?"
No, Jane said secretly in her heart.
Instead of having regrets in life, it is better to gamble.
After leaving the old mansion, Jian went to the hospital to chat with Xiang Nan about the old man's condition as promised, and after confirming that there was no problem for the time being, she left the hospital.
On the first day of returning to Huayan to work, Jian Sixue arranged a particularly tricky job for Jian as promised, an entertainment magazine called "Colorful Colors" published by Huayan.
Everyone knows that now that self-media is developing so rapidly, the market of traditional media has been squeezed, and this kind of non-existent entertainment magazine, when you publish it, the melons on the Internet have changed wave after wave.
To be honest, Jian Ruyue didn't understand the reason why Hua Yan didn't stop "Colorful", and she didn't want to take this job.
But Jian Sixue's words are also very clear, Jian can refuse as promised, but after refusing, he went to the old man and said that he didn't want to stay in Huayan.
"Dad, you just want to drive me away like that?" Jian Ruyu looked at this middle-aged man who was high up and his eyes were full of indifference, and slowly spoke.
Jane frowned and said, "Yes!"
Not at all surprised by the answer, Jane smiled as promised, "Okay, I'll take it!"
Although she fought for this breath in front of Jian Sixue, her head began to hurt when she returned to the office and looked at the sales of this entertainment magazine.
In the morning, she summoned everyone in the conference room.
After listening to everyone's self-introduction, Jian Ruyue had only one thought in her heart, which was messy.
I don't know what Huayan's intentions were in running this magazine in the first place, but now what is the difference between these people and those paparazzi who everyone shouts and beats, nine of the ten reports written are fake, and the only one can be seen, and it is a serialized dog blood ethics.
Jian Ruyue herself has no experience in making magazines, and she also knows that Jian Sixue gave her this job just to look better in the old man.
But the job has to be done.
She asked her assistant to find all the magazines that had been published in the past five years and flipped through them one by one.
But when she flipped to the July issue of the magazine three years ago, she suddenly stopped.
"According to insiders, the CEO of a pharmaceutical company surnamed H is suspected of raising Xiao Huadan surnamed N, and the two traveled to Bali together ......"
Underneath the exaggerated title, there are a few blurry pictures.
As soon as she saw the pharmaceutical company, her nerves were very sensitive, especially the boss surnamed H, which reminded her of He Chenghao.
But judging from the accompanying pictures, there is a gap between this person's figure and He Chenghao.
It stands to reason that every report has a signature, but this one doesn't, all of which always makes Jane feel weird.
Jane called her assistant as promised, "Who made this?"
The assistant is new and it's not clear.
"Go and ask, find out who it is, and then confirm the authenticity of the report!"
"Yes!"
After the assistant went out, Jane flipped through the issues of the magazine before and after this issue, but did not see any relevant reports.
Jane searched the Internet again.
is not used for the vague report of "Colorful", and the revelations and comments of "careful netizens" on the Internet are much more exciting.
Three years ago, when Yongfa was really in the limelight, someone gave Ning Xue, who was still in college, to He Chenghao.
Later, He Chenghao turned her into a traffic flower and gave it to a certain bigwig.
There are even people who say that Ning Xue was later given to a certain big guy by He Chenghao, and the big guy's name was not mentioned, but judging from their description, this person is likely to have something to do with Beinan.
North-South ......
Jane frowned.
If He Chenghao colluded with people from the north and south three years ago, is it not that Ruida did not hit the muzzle of the gun by chance, but was carefully selected by them?
Because coincidentally, in July three years ago, Ruida earned the first pot of gold, and although there were hardships after that, Ruida's business slowly picked up.
Although there seemed to be no connection, Jane always felt that these things were strung together by an invisible thread.
As soon as she thought of this, Jian Ru wanted to call Duan Yucheng as promised.
Almost subconsciously, the familiar number was dialed, and when she heard the familiar "hey", Jane hung up the phone as if someone had knocked on it.
She bit her lip in frustration and flipped her phone over.
After a while, Duan Yucheng's call came.
Jane didn't answer until the call automatically hung up.
Looking at the mobile phone that was quiet again, Jian Ruyue expected it to ring again, but until Jian Ruyue got off work, Duan Yucheng never called.
The next day, Jian didn't come to work as promised under the pretext of market research, so she went to find a private detective agency and found someone to check He Chenghao and Ning Xue.
Coming out of the detective agency, Jane received a call from Nishino as promised.
"I found it, the phone number is not clear, you can come to the store!"
When Jane arrived at Baochun as promised, Nishino was in the store with a man.
The two sat in the booth near the bar, one was hanging, and the other was full of anger that no one should enter.
"Jane, come here!" Luxiye beckoned warmly.
And the man next to him gave him a warning look, Nishino turned a blind eye, smiled and said to Jane as promised, "Sit!"
Jane tugged at the corners of her mouth and sat down across from them.
"This, Lao Ji, Ji Bohan. ”
Ji Bo nodded coldly at Jian Ruyu, and Jian Ruyu also replied to him.
Nishino threw a few pieces of paper on the bar table, tilted his neck and asked Jian Ruyu, "Who do you think the person who can get the Yu family heirloom in this capital may be?"
Jane was stunned for a moment, and said in disbelief, "What do you mean...... The Yu family?"
"Uh-huh!" Nishino took out a piece of paper on the bar table and put it in front of Jian Ruyue, "This pendant is so high that it is fake, and it can't be made without a little real ability, and besides, the imitation in your hand is worth this amount!"
Looking at the five fingers stretched out by Nishino, Jian said as promised, "Five hundred thousand?"
Nishino shook his head, "Five million!"
"It's worth so much!"
"The work of the late master Hua Yongshan, she was the jewelry designer of the old lady of the Yu family during her lifetime, and it is not surprising that she can see the heirloom, but the purpose of Hua Yongshan is still to be examined. Ji Bohan, who had been silent, said expressionlessly.
Nishino added, "It is said that after he accidentally saw this heirloom of the Yu family, he never forgot it, so after countless failures, he got the dragon and phoenix pendant in your hand!"
Jian blinked as promised, "So this pendant is not custom-made, but was taken away after Hua Yongshan imitated it, and then fell into my hand!"
Nishino nodded, "That's it for now, if you find out who took this pendant, then the person you're looking for will also be found!"
After a pause, Nishino said, "Of course, there is another situation, Hua Yongshan's imitation is unique, and the person who took him must be very nervous after losing it, if you know who the pendant is on, you will definitely come to find it!"
Although the pendant was worth five million, it was impossible for Jane to find someone who couldn't find it all at once.
Ji Bohan echoed, "Lead the snake out of the hole!"
Lure the snake out of the hole......
Although it was just a pendant, Jian Ruyue always felt that this matter was not simple, especially these two pendants, one was on her, and the other was still on Jian Nianen's body.
And coincidentally, they all found such a pendant after being forced to do so.
If there were no such coincidences in the world, either someone was lying, or it was all orchestrated.
Previously, she had been suspected by Duan Yucheng of being Yu Fenghe's person.
Does that mean that if someone arranges it, this person may also be Yu Fenghe?
But whether this person is Yu Fenghe or not, it is not known at present.
But it's always a direction.
It was still early when she came out of Baochun, and Jane's head was messing around, and she felt that overnight, she seemed to have fallen into a pile of messy lines.
He Chenghao's affairs......
Pendant thing......
and whether Yu Fenghe is the manipulator behind all this.
-
A week later, news came from the private investigators.
Three years ago, He Chenghao did not support Ning Xue, but found someone to train Ning Xue, and then gave her to the second financier, Zheng Wangu, a shareholder of the Beinan Group.
"Zheng Wangu?" Jian worked in Beinan as promised, she knew that this shareholder was humble and had a good reputation in Beinan, but her age was a little too old to be Ning Xue's father.
She really couldn't imagine that Zheng Wangu would do something to support a starlet.
"Yes, Zheng Wangu took Ning Xue for three months, and after that, Ning Xue traveled many times, and now she is the lover of a coal mine boss!" said an employee of a private detective agency.
Hearing these words, Jian Ruyue frowned tightly, "Where is Ning Xue now?"
"Shoot a TV series in Hengdian!"
"What about He Chenghao?" Jian asked again.
"He Chenghao divorced his wife half a year ago, and there has been no news since then, we guess...... He's either hiding or he's dead!"
Whether he was hiding or dying, he must have known something he shouldn't know.
Hanging up the phone, Jane's mood was unprecedentedly heavy, and there was a black vortex in front of her to guide her forward, but if she was not careful, she would never recover.
But human instinct is full of curiosity.
Since she knew about this matter, she couldn't hide her ears and steal the bell, and it was very likely that this matter had something to do with Ruida's bankruptcy.
And because of this incident, she and Duan Yucheng also had an unpleasant quarrel.
If you think so, maybe Duan Yucheng knows the inside story.
But the last time he called Duan Yucheng and hung up, she didn't answer Duan Yucheng's phone again.
Thinking of her relationship with Duan Yucheng, Jian had a headache as promised.
Although Jian Ruyue didn't know how to be a magazine, the sample issue of the new issue of "Colorful" still came out, and Jian Ruyue looked at the messy reports inside, and they went.
Of course, such magazines don't sell much better.
Three days after the release, all at the end of the crane.
At the regular meeting, Jane Sixue criticized Jane as promised.
Jian Ruyue had long been accustomed to Jian Sixue's attitude, so it didn't matter, but Jian Nianen, who hadn't contacted her for a long time, followed her to her office after the meeting.
"Is there anything wrong with you?"
Jian Ruyue is now very afraid that Jian Nianen will kneel down and shed tears at every turn.
In case Yu Cheng came to Huayan to find Jian Nianen, knocked on Jian Nianen and knelt down in front of her to shed tears, she would not be able to wash herself when she jumped into the Yellow River.
Jian Nianen looked like a child's shyness, "Sister, I want to ask you to do me a favor!"
Before Jian Ru's promise of "don't help" came out, Jian Nianen said, "Brother Cheng and I are preparing to get engaged to our lover, but I haven't chosen the dress I wear for engagement, I want to ask you to help me...... You've been to Los Angeles, so you've got a good eye!"
"I'm sorry, I don't have time!" Jian Nianen refused.
"Sister......" Jian Nianen's cheeks turned red, and her eyes were full of tears, "Go, go!"
Jane as promised: ......
Sure enough, what she feared most happened anyway.
"I really won't delay your time, I'll choose it soon!" Jian Nianen pulled Jian Ruru's sleeve and begged.
Jian Ruyue really couldn't bear it, she really admired people like Jian Nianen, no matter how badly she tore before, in the blink of an eye, it was as if nothing had happened, and she shouted "sister" affectionately.
She really felt that she might have dug up the ancestral grave of Jian Nianen's family in her previous life, so that she would be so annoyed by Jian Nianen in this life.
"Sister, then we'll make up our minds, on Saturday morning, I'll go to Repulse Bay to find you!"
As soon as Jian was about to speak, Jian Nianen had already turned around and walked out of the office.
Jian resisted the urge to scold her mother and took out a Marlboro, but when she thought that this was the office, she forcibly resisted the urge to smoke!
After getting off work in the evening, Jane went to have a meal with Xiao Ai as promised, and it was almost eleven o'clock when she went back.
As she stepped out of the elevator, the lights in the corridor lit up, and she saw a slender figure standing in the doorway.
The heart was scratched violently, and Jane's footsteps stopped suddenly, and the one in her hand fell to the ground with a clatter, making a cool sound.
This sound broke the invisible stalemate between the two.
"Open the door. Duan Yucheng said.
Jane pursed her lips as promised, walked over and opened the door.
The moment the door was opened, Duan Yucheng closed the door and pressed her to the entrance.
"What the hell have you been up to lately?"
His voice was low, with the smell of gnashing teeth, as if Jane had betrayed him as promised.
Jane Ruyue has been in a bad mood recently, especially today when she was annoyed by Jian Nianen, and she said that she was going to get engaged on Valentine's Day.
Now seeing Duan Yucheng, especially hearing him ask like this, his heart suddenly came up, "Does it have anything to do with you?"
is about to get engaged and married to Jian Nianen, what do you care about her life and death?
But Duan Yucheng didn't care what Jian Ruyue was thinking, he pressed Jian Ruyue's shoulders with both hands, his eyes were cold and serious, "Tell me, what have you been doing lately?"
Jane's shoulder hurt from his pinch, and if she hadn't been pressed against the wall behind her, her body would probably have fallen.
"You're in charge!"
Jian sneered as promised, and pushed Duan Yucheng hard.
But the man is steady, strong, and does not move.
Her teeth itched with anger and she stared at him.
There was no light in the room, only the night and moonlight cast in from the window, hazy, covering Duan Yucheng's face, so that people couldn't distinguish the look on his face.
His deep eyes stared at Jian Ruyue for a moment, with orders and warnings in his words, "I don't care what you do, stop me!"
Jane sneered, "What does it have to do with you, let go!"
Duan Yucheng didn't seem to hear Jian Ruyu's words, he bowed his head, brushed his chin with stubble against her cheek, bit her earlobe fiercely, and with anger, "Stop!"
"Don't!"
knew that Duan Yucheng might say this for her good, but Jian Ruyu was like a child in the rebellious period, the more she was not allowed to do it, the more she wanted to do it.
"Now that I know, I'm going to look it up!" said Jane as she glared.
"What do you know?" Duan Yucheng roared, like a lion about to get angry.
But in the face of his anger, Jian Ruyue did not have the slightest cowardice, she raised her neck, and looked at Duan Yucheng with a smile, "What do I know? Since you think I don't know anything, why did you come to me?"
"Or is it that your north and south are not as clean as I thought?"
In the darkness, the two stared at each other and refused to give in to each other.
Minutes and seconds passed.
After a long time, Duan Yucheng asked Jian Ru, "Do you have to check it out?"
In fact, Jian Ruyue didn't have to look into it, even if she suspected any connection between Ruida, Yongfa, and North and South, but there was no evidence.
Even if there was evidence, she couldn't do anything on her own.
But she annoyed Jian Nianen, annoyed Duan Yucheng, and even annoyed herself who would throw away her armor as soon as Duan Yucheng came.
So in the face of Duan Yucheng's forced questioning, she blurted out, "Yes!"
Duan Yu nodded angrily, "Okay...... You check, I'll let you check!"
After speaking, he let go of Jane as promised, opened the door, and strode out.
Jian Ruyue was shocked by the deafening sound of slamming the door, her heart was sour, and she fell silent affectionately.
After Duan Yucheng went downstairs, he called Gao Yuan, "Recently, I found someone to look at Jian as promised." ”
"Yes. ”
"In addition, tell me that Yu Fenghe will not have the slightest affection if he dares to break his promise!"
Duan Yucheng hung up the phone and glanced up at Jian Ruru's window.
It's still dark.
And at this moment, Jian Ruyue looked at the figure leaning on the car downstairs, and her heart hurt faintly, as if she was being dragged tightly.
She closed her eyes, struggled for a moment, turned and rushed out of the house.
With the sound of the wind in her ears, Jian Ruyue ran in front of Duan Yucheng like a person who was about to run out of oxygen.
"I promise you, but I also have one condition!"
