The moment Commander Zhan made the call, the old butler looked at him thoughtfully.

At this time, even he didn't know Zhan Wenlan's specific whereabouts, who else could he ask?

The phone was quickly connected, and Commander Zhan's anxious tone unconsciously eased a little: "Old friend, although it is a little difficult to speak, but at the moment, it seems that only you may know where Wen Lan is." ”

When he spoke, he was quite wolf.

As a father, he even has to ask others for help on his son's whereabouts, which is really a bit ashamed for him.

The old dean looked at the students coming and going from a distance in the teaching building, all of them with vigorous and sunny faces, lively figures, and straightforward personalities, which is what ordinary people in their twenties should look like, but the student he liked the most, the son of his most talented old friend, is now so desperate and helpless.

In the ten years that he watched Zhan Wenlan grow up, no matter how big the wind and waves, no matter how dangerous the situation, he has always been proud of this young man's perseverance and calm through a difficult situation. But it turned out that the biggest dilemma was actually waiting for him here.

Sighing tiredly, he couldn't hear the impatience and sadness in Commander Zhan's tone. However, at this time, even if Wen Lan is recruited, what's the point?

"I don't ......" He just wanted to say that he didn't know, but was blocked back by Commander Zhan's words.

"The people of the Leng family have all been released, hasn't he been worried about Leng Yunxi's whereabouts? Anyway, at least he had to know the news. ”

The old dean was stunned for a moment, not knowing whether it was a sigh but a sadness in his heart, and he was silent for a long time, and said softly: "Go and look for him in his apartment at Harvard." ”

There was only one place he could think of.

Commander Zhan suddenly fell silent, and an irrepressible sadness gradually spread from the bottom of his heart.

There, it was the calmest and most lively time for Wen Lan and Leng Yunxi to get along.

If so, if he was really there, how would he tell him, the woman he had been thinking of in his heart was not only coming back safely, but now holding an incomparably sharp blade, slowly preparing to cut off on their heads!

"How so? Did you ask about the whereabouts of the young master? Looking at Commander Zhan's sluggish expression, the old butler couldn't help but walk over. At the moment, there is no delay in the slightest effort, if you still can't find the young master, you can really only watch as so many years of hard work are wasted.

Commander Zhan wiped his face and suddenly stood up, "Let's go." ”

did not let the secretary and security personnel follow, and directly took a special plane with the old housekeeper and immediately flew to the United States.

Around Harvard, it's time for students to eat after class. When Commander Zhan and the old housekeeper found Zhan Wenlan's apartment, they stood outside the door and rang the doorbell vigorously.

For a long time, there was no movement at all.

This apartment was obtained by Zhan Wenlan privately a long time ago, and Commander Zhan was not afraid that there were other unrelated people inside, so when he saw that the doorbell had no effect, he directly began to knock on the door desperately: "Wenlan, come out for me!" ”

A dignified man, for the sake of a woman, is this still his calm and self-controlled son!

"Bang bang bang" -

He knocked on the door panel for a long time, but no one answered.

The old housekeeper saw that his eyes were so sore that he couldn't help it, so he stepped forward to pull Commander Zhan away, looked inside the door, and said quietly: "Young master, the old lady is very worried about you." During this time, you have not contacted us, and we are too anxious to stand it. Miss Leng, Miss Leng has returned to China now, do you still want to stay here and say nothing? ”

People of such an age, tears are raining down, even if this is a high-end apartment, but people come and go, and many people begin to pay attention to this side.

A Chinese female student walked by, looked at them with a strange expression, and saw that they were speaking her native language, so she couldn't help but stop and listen for a while.

It wasn't until they heard the phrase "Miss Leng" that the whole thing suddenly moved, as if they suddenly remembered something, and rushed to Commander Zhan and them like the wind.

"The Miss Leng you just talked about, isn't it Wang?" In Harvard's Chinese community, Zhan Wenlan and Wang are a celebrity couple, and before they left Harvard, she had the privilege of meeting them on a Chinese student school.

“wang？” The old butler looked at the schoolgirl in amazement. Haven't you heard of Leng Yunxi's alias surname "Wang"?

"By the way, her Chinese name is not called this. I think about it, I think about it. The female student pressed her temples a little excitedly, and her brain moved quickly: "By the way, it's called Leng Yunxi, I remember, someone called her that." ”

"Yes, yes, do you know Leng Yunxi?" The old butler looked at her with some surprise.

"It's some time ago, Senior Zhan came back specially, please everyone, if there is any news of Leng Yunxi, you must inform him as soon as possible." The schoolgirl looked the two men up and down suspiciously, "Don't you know?" ”

When Commander Zhan heard that Wen Lan had really returned to Harvard, he was sure and hurriedly said, "I am his father, do you know where he is now?" ”

The female student shook her head in confusion, it has always been rumored in the Chinese circle that Zhan Wenlan's birth was unusual, if this person was really his father, she was still a little afraid.

"Don't have any other clues?" Commander Zhan was anxious, it was all this time, and he finally got some clues, could it be just broken?

The schoolgirl looked at them for a long time, and pointed to the apartment opposite.

"That's the apartment where Leng Yunxi used to live, I heard that it was bought by someone else some time ago, otherwise, you go over there and ask? Perhaps, Senior Zhan went there to ask for news from Leng Yunxi. "They are a group of people who rarely deal with Wang on weekdays, Zhan Wenlan has come to inquire, and it is impossible to let go of the person who bought the apartment where Wang once lived.

Commander Zhan suddenly saw a little hope, nodded quickly, and pulled the old butler and walked towards the opposite side.

The two apartments are actually very close to each other, and the windows on the second floor are open, so you can probably see each other's rooms clearly, so you didn't have to walk a few steps to get there.

The whispers around are getting louder and louder, and what is even more impossible to ignore is that more and more people are looking at them in amazement.

Since Commander Zhan became the head of the military region, he has never been looked at by so many people with inexplicable eyes, but now, he can't care so much, seeing that the lights of the entire apartment are turned off, he has been ringing the doorbell almost blankly.

The moment the door was opened from the inside, he looked at the person in front of him almost in shock, and suddenly, his whole body lost strength.

"Young Master?" The old butler looked at the silent and cold man in front of him in disbelief, and almost trembled and almost fainted.

What's going on? What's going on? How can a good person suddenly become like this?

This full beard almost covers the chin so that it is impossible to see the original handsome appearance, like a depraved gambler, and the whole person is an empty walking corpse.

"You're here." Zhan Wenlan glanced at them coldly, and Mo turned around expressionlessly and went back to the house.

Commander Zhan gritted his teeth and strode forward, looking to grab Zhan Wenlan, but he suddenly reached out and slapped it away.

"Smack"――

The voice was crisp and harsh.

Frightened, the old butler suddenly came back to his senses, and the whole person was a little delirious.

The eyes of the people outside were more and more inquiring, and he pulled Commander Zhan into the house and quickly locked the door.

It wasn't until this moment that he looked at the apartment.

At first glance, it is the girl's residence, and the colors of the walls everywhere are relatively youthful and lively, with the young master's character of liking dark black and white, he actually lives here, he is a little skeptical, is there something wrong with his memory.

Commander Zhan was so excited by the sloppy and empty appearance of his son that he had just seen that he lost his mind, and he took a few deep breaths before slowly relaxing.

"You bought Leng Yunxi's apartment and have been living here ever since?" He almost had a horrible premonition that his son had changed. At the beginning, the son who was unwavering in putting down the "evidence" in the Leng family has definitely become completely different from before.

Zhan Wenlan was wearing a black shirt, revealing half of his arms. After staying in the room for a long time and not going out, not only the face, but also the arm has brought out a sickly white.

His face was even more terrifying, and if it weren't for the fact that he could still walk and speak, it would have made people suspect that he had the kind of twilight death that only old people who were about to die had.

I haven't seen him for three months, he has lost amazing weight, his original strong body is now wearing that shirt, and the collarbone has collapsed, not to mention, his beard that has not been repaired for a long time, the son of Yushu Lanzhi is like a homeless man now.

But the most shocking thing for the two of them was that there was no light in Zhan Wen's blue eyes, as if he had seen everything with an expression, and it was empty like a tomb.

"Wen Lan, don't scare me." Commander Zhan walked up to him tremblingly, gently holding his thin wrist, his eyes were full of sourness, and his chest was almost filled with a complicated feeling of grief and indignation.

How so?

How could Wen Lan, who has always been a proud son of his pride, become like this?

"She's gone back. Wen Lan and Leng Yunxi have already returned to Beijing. How long are you going to have to wait here stupidly! Are you punishing yourself, or are you punishing me? He suddenly hugged Zhan Wenlan and shouted in a deep voice.

The body in his arms kept frozen, as if it were a puppet without temperature.

It's just that the moment Commander Zhan mentioned that "Leng Yunxi has returned to Beijing", an indescribable temperature suddenly erupted!

"She's okay?" He looked at his father in a daze, and for the first time in his life, looked at him with a cautious look of surprise and joy.

Commander Zhan nodded, nodded vigorously, and even took out his mobile phone from his arms and turned out those photos to show him: "Look, all the people from the Leng family were released yesterday." They were all very good, and Leng Yunxi didn't have any problems. Wen Lan, you see, Leng Yunxi, whom you love, is alive in Beijing. ”

Zhan Wenlan snatched the phone almost greedily at once, staring at the photos with fiery eyes.

He looked at the photos back and forth over and over again, and the information on the photos showed that they had been taken last night, really, this time, it was no longer a fantasy, it was not the phantom that he dreamed of every night and suddenly and always did.

It's the living Leng Yunxi, it's her!

"Go back, I'm going back!"

He suddenly went upstairs, took out his passport, and was about to leave in his shabby black shirt.

"Young master, don't worry. I have something to say to you. When the old housekeeper saw Leng Yunxi, he didn't care about anything, and hurriedly pulled him back.

"Miss Leng is going back, but, at the moment, she probably doesn't want to see you." Although the tone was a little vague, the old butler finally finished speaking: "Now, the companies you hold shares in have been sent to court. Anyway, Miss Leng has already returned to Beijing, and she has a chance to see her whenever she wants, but if you don't deal with the company's affairs, in a few days, things will no longer be under control. "At present, the old woman has invited a team of experts and a gold medal consultant, but she didn't let things heat up, but she could only drag on and try to wait until he invited the young master back. Time is the most extravagant thing at the moment, not a minute or a second can be wasted, and if someone directly stabs the matter to the newspaper before the trial, even if it can be resolved smoothly in the end, the reputation of the company and X will definitely not be restored.

Zhan Wenlan looked at him with a calm expression.

When the old housekeeper saw him like this, he was afraid that he had been staying in this apartment and didn't know what was going on outside, so he hurriedly told the story again: "The old lady's health is not good, and now she is barely holding on, young master, no matter what, you have to survive this hurdle." ”

Zhan Wenlan suddenly clenched his hands and suddenly pulled the shirt in front of him with force.

Most of the black buttons fell to the ground at once, and he looked at the familiar apartment, everywhere, everywhere, there was her figure. But now, it's just him, he's alone.

It is not only his body that is empty, but also his soul.

He suddenly turned around, went upstairs, and walked into the bathroom.

Turning on the shower, the whole person stood inside.

His black hair was washed by droplets, and he stood under the water column like a frog boiled in warm water.

In the heavy eyes, there was gradually a little more figure.

Suddenly, he picked up the towel and walked out of the bathroom.

"Let's go back to Beijing first. I'll go back and deal with the London affair. Appearing in the hall again, changing into clean clothes, Zhan Wenlan, who had already shaved his beard clean, faced Commander Zhan and the old housekeeper, and after calmly dropping this sentence, he walked out of the apartment directly.

The old butler looked at his back without saying anything, his eyes full of spicy sourness.

The young master doesn't even have his mind anymore, and now, he only has that woman in his head, right?

He doesn't even care about the foundation he has worked hard for so long, does it mean that as long as he can turn Miss Leng back again, even if he makes the company in his hand go bankrupt immediately, he can not blink his eyes.

The old woman has worked hard to cultivate for so many years, and as a result, the young master has become like this?

The old butler was sad and lonely, and for the first time, there was an unaffordable ...... of emptiness.
