Chapter 145: Irresponsible
Duan Jingchen's words brought my heart back to reality and slowly became steady.
He probably knew that I was in a mess right now, so he smiled gently and said, "On the train, you just don't want to be alone." I just talked to He Xiao on the phone, the matter is not that serious, he is just hearsay. ”
I know that he is comforting me, He Xiao doesn't say anything else, at least what he says has never contained moisture.
However, Duan Jingchen is right, as long as I am not alone, things will not deteriorate further.
Someone on his side is urging him, and it is estimated that he will start training again. He had no choice but to say goodbye to me, and finally added: "No matter what happens, don't panic." ”
I answered, and he hung up.
Doubao saw that I really didn't take him back to Beijing anymore, and he was also down-to-earth. There were tears on his face, his eyes were red, his mouth was upturned, and he was happy.
I shook my head in my heart and said secretly: the child is so easy to be satisfied, his happiness and unhappiness are in the moment, put all his vitality into it, and the appeal is amazing.
He's fine, I'm relaxed.
"Mom, phone. Doubao pointed to my phone on the bed.
I just answered Duan Jingchen's phone and threw my phone on the sleeper of the train. At this time, the phone is sinking into the soft quilt and vibrating.
I glanced at the screen, and it was actually Gu Yixiao's name on it.
"Tao Ran, are you in Beijing?" As soon as the phone was connected, Gu Yi smiled and asked.
"No, what's wrong?" my voice froze.
I don't want to have any more contact with him. However, I haven't blacklisted him yet, because there are still a small part of the business dealings, for example, he still owes me a part of the compensation for infringement that has not been paid.
"You didn't go to Gansu, did you?" Gu Yi asked again.
"Going, on the way. What's wrong!" I said in a stern voice.
Gu Yixiao also came to ask about this, what happened?
He scolded, and then said, "I'll rush over now, remember to stay away from him if you see Gu Tianbao." He's crazy!"
"What the hell is going on?" I asked.
However, he hung up the phone before he could finish his words, and a beep came from the microphone.
When I called again, his phone was busy.
I sat in the box, not daring to go anywhere, let alone writing my anxiety and uneasiness on my face. This matter is too weird, one person and two people are saying that I should guard against Gu Tianbao. What happened to Gu Tianbao?
Doubao wants to use my mobile phone to watch cartoons, and he refuses to let go after a long time of persuasion. Because I took him out of the house relatively rarely, I didn't buy cartoons in the mobile and didn't cache cartoons in advance, and he saw other children watching, so he had to watch them.
Looking at the bean bag holding the phone, I was going crazy. Suddenly, I thought of a personal hotspot.
When people are busy, their IQ goes offline.
I repeatedly told myself in my heart to be calm, to be calm.
In the end, Doubao hugged PAD and watched the cartoon, and I got my mobile phone and walked to the door of the box to call He Xiao.
"Gu Yixiao also called me, saying that I should be careful of Gu Tianbao, saying that he was crazy. What's going on?" I asked.
"Tao Ran, I don't know now. Wait a minute, I'll ask you. He said this in a hesitant tone.
"What's the problem? Can't you help me once?"
He sighed, "You know who I'm going to ask?"
"I don't know. I said.
As soon as I spoke, I realized that I was unreasonable. For He Xiao, I really feel like I have too many unreasonable requirements for my relatives.
For example, the current requirement.
He said slowly on the phone: "This is half of the news that Tian Jun deliberately revealed to me, he didn't finish it, but revealed it unintentionally." If I call and ask, I have to agree to his terms. I've been in a cold war with him for eight years, how can you let me open this mouth. We are enemies. ”
"I'm sorry, I'll call him. I said.
He Xiao rarely had such an embarrassed tone, and I immediately felt that I had gone too far and immediately apologized.
"You can give a phone call and try, but I deduce he won't tell you. He revealed this news to me just so that I could beg him. He Xiao sighed when he said this, "Don't waste your time. ”
"It's okay, I'll try. I said.
He smiled bitterly: "If you are not reconciled, you will try, if you can ask, it is the best." ”
I hung up He Xiao's phone and called Tian Jun. I have met him a few times, and although we don't talk very warmly, we are half acquaintances.
He saved my number, and as soon as the phone was connected, he called out my name: "Tao Ran, are you looking for me for Gu Tianbao's business? If I guessed correctly, Gu Tianbao followed you, right?"
"What the hell is going on with Gu Tianbao?" I asked.
He smiled and said, "Why should I tell you? This is the privacy of my guests, and I am a person with professional ethics." ”
I choked on him all at once.
He didn't speak on the phone, and I didn't speak, thinking to myself what kind of person he was and what he wanted most.
I can't help it, I'm a businessman, and the first thing that comes to mind when I negotiate with people is the method of trading interests.
This time, though, I was a little at a loss. I don't have much contact with Tian Jun, and I don't know much about him, I only know that he is a psychiatrist, and He Xiao is a half-brother. He Xiao's father is He Shiyou, and Tian Jun's father must be very powerful. A person with a background that matches He Xiao, why should he become a psychiatrist? Does he have any ulterior motives for approaching Gu Kun?
Before I could think about this, Tian Jun smiled and said, "You asked He Xiao to come to me, and I told him." ”
"Tian Jun, why do you think Xiao will help me?" I got to the crux of the matter.
He Xiao said that Tian Jun revealed this matter to him just so that he could talk to him. Now, Tian Jun also made it clear that it was okay to want to know about this matter, and let He Xiao come.
"Half of the blood on my body and He Xiao is the same, of course I know what he is thinking. And, I know what he's going to do for you. Tao Ran, you underestimate yourself too much. You asked He Xiao to come and tell me, I promise to throw all the professional ethics into the gutter. Tian Jun said with a smile.
I cursed in my heart: these two brothers are the same bastards. As long as they achieve their goals, professional ethics can be thrown aside, and in their case, the so-called professional ethics, the so-called privacy is a shield, or the sanctimonious kind.
"Tian Jun, you can talk to me. I stabilized my mind, "He Xiao can agree to your conditions, and I can also agree." ”
"Hehe, you're thinking too simply. I asked He Xiao to come just to see the way he begged me. You come to beg me, and you don't feel fulfilled. "Tian Jun deliberately sold Guanzi.
Isn't this a perverted mentality?
"You're a psychiatrist......
"Tao Ran, don't waste time with me here, this matter can only come to He Xiao. It doesn't matter if he doesn't come, two or three days at most, you can pay more attention to the news. Tian Jun lost patience with me and hung up the phone without waiting for me to finish.
"Bastard!" I scolded.
I know that it is much more reliable to ask He Xiao for help than Tian Jun now, but I don't want to embarrass him.
After hanging up the phone, I saw that Doubao was holding PAD and looking at me, and when he saw that I was no longer calling, he pointed to the door of the box and said, "Mom, other children came to play with me just now, can I go out?"
I thought for a moment and said to him, "Yes, but Mom is going with you." ”
He threw down his PAD and ran over happily.
What Tian Jun knows, Gu Yixiao also knows, I asked him if it was okay?
When I thought of this, we had already arrived at the other family's private rooms, Doubao ran in to play with other children, and I stood at the door again and started texting. Now, there are too many people next to you to make a phone call.
My messages were all sent to Gu Yixiao, but seven or eight of them were all sunk in the sea. Seeing that he didn't reply, I stopped.
No matter how anxious I am, I will not post it again for this kind of person who sees me as air.
I sat at the door of the box and watched the three children make a mess. They were holding a set of toys for a furious speeding car, and they were talking about the plot lively. I watched it for a while and thought it was funny. Those cars are kind of like Transformers, throwing a plate and getting the car stuck will deform right away, which is weird and funny.
During this period, Doubao wanted to go to the toilet, so I found an excuse to ask another parent to accompany me.
After another two hours, Duan Jingchen called me again and asked me how I was doing. When he heard that my mood had calmed down, he also breathed a sigh of relief and smiled: "Don't worry, don't be afraid, there is me." ”
I answered, but I didn't dare to let go.
Finally got to the station, and the organizer had a staff member lead the team, queuing up to leave the station with a small red flag in their hands. I had an extra eye and was in the middle of the line.
As soon as I lined up on the platform, I saw Duan Jingchen standing not far away and waving at me.
Doubao also saw him, his eyes lit up, and he waved at him from afar.
The parents of the children who were with us all the way also saw Duan Jingchen waving at us, and said with a smile: "Tao Ran, this is your husband? ”
Duan Jingchen is a little more than 1.8 meters, I think his facial features are ordinary, but they are more attractive when combined together. He is a person with a different temperament. There is a masculinity at first glance, which may have something to do with his profession.
"No, it's my friend. I said.
The parent smiled awkwardly, covered up the past, and didn't ask any more questions.
Duan Jingchen stood not far away and looked at the crowd leaving the station, and when he saw that we were about to go outside, he walked up to me. whispered: "Don't be nervous, I've asked for leave these days." ”
"You still have training?" I asked.
"We don't have holidays all year round, and we don't have holidays every month. Duan Jingchen smiled.
He was dressed in civilian clothes, and it was not unobtrusive to walk beside us.
After we arrived at the hotel, I asked Duan Jingchen in a low voice, "Do you also live here?"
He smiled: "You don't have to live in the room they arranged, I booked a big suite upstairs, you and the child live in the inner room, and I live in the outer room." However, you also got a room key for the room here, so just pretend to live in it. ”
He was so cautious that my heart suddenly hung again.
"It's fine, it's just that it involves children, and I'm going to be a little bit more thoughtful, just in case. Duan Jingchen immediately sensed my concern and patiently explained.
I didn't say anything, and obediently listened to his arrangement.
After checking in with the team, I found an opportunity to take the elevator up three more floors to the suite level. Duan Jingchen pulled the bean bag and brushed the room open.
"Mom, why can't I live on the same floor as the other children?" asked Doubao, puzzled.
Before I could speak, Duan Jingchen smiled and said, "Because we want to play a game, this game is called the Mystery Room." You have to follow Uncle Duan all the time, otherwise you may lose accidentally. ”
His explanation was quite good, and he accepted it immediately, and asked him what the rules of the game were.
After more than seven hours on the train, Doubao didn't sleep at all, so after I bathed him, he fell asleep quickly.
I put him in the room and walked outside to the living room.
Duan Jingchen was already sitting in the living room, holding a bottle of mineral water in his hand, looking at it thoughtfully.
"What's the fuss?" I said to him.
He came back to his senses when he heard my voice, looked at me and frowned, "I was wondering if He Xiao asked the specific situation, he and I asked me to predict what would happen in two or three days." It's just a problem for me. I haven't been in Beijing for a long time, and I don't know much about your circle. He couldn't even guess something, how could I guess it. ”
He paused for a moment and asked, "Do you have eyebrows?"
I shook my head.
I know all of what he said, but I can't guess why.
"Forget it, then take precautions, just like a weasel stealing chickens, you have to find a reason, you can only say that he is greedy. "Duan Jingchen's analogy is really interesting.
The next day, we took the bus directly to the desert and started the whole eleventh holiday.
This parent-child project is a bit like "Where Are You Going, Dad", the first two days are excursion projects, and everyone is together for group activities. On the third day, they will start the treasure hunt, they will hide some small treasures near the camp in the desert, let the children and their parents find them together, and after collecting them, they can exchange them for different gifts.
The children understood the rules of the game clearly and were very interested. Doubao also asked Duan Jingchen cautiously, is this the same game as Uncle Duan said. Duan Jingchen nodded and said, "The only difference is that if you clear both games, Uncle Duan will still have rewards here." ”
While the two of them were saying this, we were sitting around the campfire in the desert camp. In front of me was a beating campfire, with a clean blue sky and stars above me, surrounded by a group of parents who treated their children like treasures.
It's a beautiful moment.
I looked at Duan Jingchen and Doubao with a slight smile, they talked and listened to each other, Doubao was surprised for a while and laughed for a while, and the admiration for Duan Jingchen in his eyes was about to overflow.
I looked at Duan Jingchen, he is not only in a high position now, but his own conditions are also very good. The figure is first-class, the appearance is passable, and the temperament is outstanding. Patient and careful with children, and good economic conditions. Such a man, thrown out, there are a lot of girls in line.
I shook my head and threw my unrealistic ideas out.
The distance between me and him is just right, one step closer than friendship, one step farther than love. I didn't dare to go any further, I didn't think it was necessary, and I was afraid of getting hurt again.
I'm a boring woman at heart, but on the surface I'm attractive. In the eyes of outsiders, I have outstanding ability, I look okay, and I have my own way of doing a company...... Such a woman is indeed attractive. However, after really getting along, others will find me boring.
Doubao fell asleep in Duan Jingchen's arms, he carried him into the tent, covered the quilt and came out, and sat down beside me.
We didn't have a word for a moment, looking at the undulating hills of sand dunes in the distance.
"What are you thinking?" he asked.
"I wonder when this boot will fall off on top of my head. I leaned back and lay on the sand. Less than three meters to the right hand is the tent where the bean bag sleeps, and I will go in and sleep with him later. And Duan Jingchen's tent is just behind the right of our tent.
This is the innermost circle, and there are three rings of tents outside, which is very safe.
Duan Jingchen saw that I had been staring at the tent where the bean bag was sleeping, and smiled and said, "Don't be so careful, it's not a big deal." ”
"You'll find out when you become a dad. I said to him softly.
Duan Jingchen followed my gaze to see the bean bag and continued, "I think this feeling is pretty good now." ”
I knew what he meant, and I blushed and didn't speak.
"It's not early, I'm going to sleep, tomorrow's day's mission. "I think it's awkward for two people to sit here and talk about this topic and make excuses.
"Go ahead, you scream at night when something happens, I sleep very lightly. Duan Jingchen said.
I whispered and turned to leave.
Now there is basically no one around the campfire, and the scene between me and him just now is too difficult. Obviously they are friends, but they are misunderstood as husband and wife. And I have experienced this misunderstanding twice today.
I gently opened the door to the tent and crept inside.
There was a small night light hanging from the top of the tent, and my eyes adjusted to the light and looked to the place where the bean bag should be sleeping. At this glance, the blood in my whole body flowed backwards, my face turned white, my hands trembled, and my whole body was cold.
Almost instantly, I lifted the little camping quilt, and there were no children in it, no children left or right.
The tent is only two square meters in total, and it's impossible for me not to see the bean bags. At this moment, I was still lucky, because I kept staring at the tent and didn't see anyone coming from the tent. Why did the bean bun go missing right under my nose?
I crawled out of the tent and shouted to Duan Jingchen with a cry: "The child is gone." ”
Duan Jingchen was still sitting in place, and when he heard my voice, his whole body jumped. He strode over, grabbed the tent door and glanced at it, then quickly walked around the back of the tent from the outside.
"What should I do? I'm going to call the police. I said as I looked around aimlessly.
"It's a total of 20 minutes back and forth, and the child won't go too far, and will he go to other tents to play. Although Duan Jingchen said this, the people had already run out of the tent area.
With a flashlight in his hand, he ran towards the sand dunes behind the tent.
There was no one in front of us all the time, and if anyone wanted to leave, it was from behind. He was right about that.
"What's going on?" said some staff and parents, who were startled by our movements, and ran over to ask.
"The child is gone. I looked at them, barely holding on to my senses, and said, "He's asleep, I'll put him in the tent first, and in the blink of an eye it's gone." ”
I regret it at this time, if I could turn back time, I must have gone into the tent to accompany him as soon as the bean bag slept. Later, I learned that it would be useless for me to go in because Gu Tianbao was using drugs. Even if I were, I didn't help with it.
All the people started to help me find the child.
Duan Jingchen had already returned from the sand dunes at this time, and he said to the staff: "Find me a sand motorcycle, there are people's footprints and car tire prints over there." Now the chase is still in a hurry, it's late, and you can't see the footprints when the wind blows. ”
"The bean buns were really taken away?" I asked.
Before Duan Jingchen could speak, my mobile phone rang first. I jumped up as if I had been stabbed, and when I got on the phone, it was He Xiao calling.
"Tao Ran, I'll make a long story short. You must take good care of the child and avoid Gu Tianbao. Today I went to talk to He Xiao. He told a shocking secret. In short, Gu Tianbao is a person who does not have to bear legal responsibility for killing people. He Xiao said.
His words were like a hammer, and my last hope was gone.
"The child is gone, just now. "I don't know how I said those words to him.
He Xiao scolded his mother on the phone, and then shouted: "Duan Jingchen is a dead one!"
I didn't speak, because Duan Jingchen had already gotten the sandbike from the staff, and I ran the sand, trying to catch up with him. He saw my movements from a distance and said to the people standing beside me, "Take care of her, don't let her run around." In the meantime, call the police. ”
I was stopped by the staff.
He said to me: "I see that this friend of yours is not an ordinary person, it should be no problem for him to go, you can wait for the police here." ”
I had no choice but to stay and pin my hopes on Duan Jingchen.
He Xiao's phone hadn't hung up yet, he should have heard my voice, and when he heard that I was quiet here, he continued: "I went to find Tian Jun, and he said that He Xiao has always had a mental illness, which is still hereditary. Gu Kun never announced this, but just favored him unconditionally. However, no matter how bad Gu Yixiao is, how good Gu Tianbao is, Gu Kun will never give the company to Gu Tianbao. Only three people in the world know about this. Gu Kun, Tian Jun, Gu Tianbao's mother. However, she is a mentally ill person herself. ”
I had already heard the meaning of his words, and now I had expressed them so clearly, which was completely unexpected. But so what.
I knew too late, the child had already been taken away by Gu Tianbao.
"What does he want to do?" I asked.
Gu Kun announced at home a week ago that he would give Gu Yixiao the inheritance of the company. Gu Tianbao thought that Gu Yixiao's victory had something to do with you. Because Gu Kun made it clear that Consortium A was able to directly and beautifully acquire KB and Qisheng when it entered China, it shows that Gu Yixiao has the ability to take over the entire company. Therefore, Gu Tianbao hates you, and he thinks that all this is your fault. He Xiao continued.
If the bean bag is fine, I will definitely make some moves after knowing the news, at least to make some money from the Gu family, now, my heart is full of bean bags, and I have no ideas.
I hung up He Xiao's phone and pinned my hopes on Duan Jingchen.
After waiting for another 10 minutes or so, the police came, and they asked me to record a statement and understand the situation. I didn't hide anything, I told everything I knew.
At this time, the police also realized the seriousness of the matter, and immediately sent people to chase them out in four directions. I asked to follow one of the roads, and the policeman who led me pointed casually and let me follow the team in the same direction as Duan Jingchen.
Just as we were about to leave, he answered the phone, and when he hung up, he asked me, "Who is that friend of yours?"
Duan Jingchen. I said.
His face froze, and he cursed in a low voice, and then he also got into our team of buggies. In the car, he made a phone call and went out, I don't know who the other party was, but I heard him say: "Chief Duan personally went to chase a mentally ill criminal." ”
"Yes, I'm chasing ...... I know, I'm going to get the head back as soon as possible...... Well, okay. He spoke for a few minutes, and finally hung up the phone with a serious expression.
