Early the next morning, when Li Ao, Wen Jiaren and Lian Zihan rushed to Duan Xuchu's residence, Duan Xuchu was sitting on the sofa in the living room, leaning there with his legs bent, his elbows on the armrests of the sofa, and a small laptop on his knees, looking very lazy and casual.

"Second brother."

Duan Xuchu raised his eyes and swept over the three of them, the heavy bloodshot in his heavy pupils was clearly visible, and he pointed to the opposite side with his chin, "Sit." ”

The three of them sat down on the sofa opposite Duan Xuchu, and when they saw dozens of folders on the coffee table, Li Ao frowned, and had a bad premonition in his heart, and asked, "Second brother called us over, is there anything we need to do?" ”

"Hmm." Duan Xuchu's tone was light, but his voice was extremely hoarse, because he hadn't had a good rest for a few days, his face was a little pale, his slender and thin fingers had been tapped on the keyboard, and the light blue blood vessels were floating, and he didn't look up at the three of them, "A few days ago, Dr. Zhou developed a new drug for Lian Zihan, and the clinical trial was very successful, so there will be no more problems this time." ”

"In addition, I also need to cooperate with them to do some physical therapy, plus Lian Zihan has just quit methamphetamine, take this opportunity to change the environment, Wen Jiaren, you accompany Lian Zihan to stay abroad for a while." Without giving Wen Jiaren and Lian Zihan a chance to speak, Duan Xuchu continued: "Li Shaochong is dead, no one poses a threat to me anymore, you have your own life, you can't always follow me, when you need your help, I will naturally let you come back." ”

When Duan Xuchu's words came to this, Wen Jiaren and Lian Zihan had no room for opposition, and they nodded after hesitating for a while, "We know." ”

"From today, I quit the M2K organization, and the next leader of M2K is Li Ao." Duan Xu's calm tone at the beginning made the faces of the three people on the opposite side change greatly, and they all stood up and said in surprise: "Second brother, why did you suddenly make this decision?!" ”

Duan Xuchu raised his head at this time, glanced at the three of them very calmly, and a monosyllable overflowed between his thin lips, "Sit." ”

The three of them sat back on the sofa stiffly and slowly, their thin lips pursed with solemn expressions, and their hearts were even more unspeakably uncomfortable.

They knew what Duan Xuchu had decided, and no one could change it, the hand on his knee was clenched into a fist, and the three of them lowered their heads and were silent and did not speak again.

"You can wear this ring, or keep it." Duan Xuchu took out a ring and put it on the coffee table, a very simple black tail ring, the same as Pei Yanjin's, Duan Xuchu's one was given to him by Pei Tingqing.

The tail ring is a symbol of the status of the leader of M2K, if the ring is not suitable, the size can be changed, but Duan Xuchu never wears these on his hands, even in the six years of marriage with Jiang Qian, Duan Xuchu has never worn a wedding ring.

However, today, at the moment when Duan Xuchu stretched out his hand, Li Ao and the three of them suddenly discovered that Duan Xuchu was wearing a silver ring on his ring finger, and we all know the meaning of the ring on the ring finger........ So did Duan Xuchu really hide from them and register his marriage with Pei Yanjie?

"Second brother, ........ you" Li Ao's eyes were fixed on Duan Xuchu's ring finger, and he stopped talking.

Duan Xuchu's movements paused, he looked down at the ring, his lips hooked up with an arc of unknown meaning, and there seemed to be softness in the bitterness, Duan Xuchu didn't answer Li Ao's question, he pushed the folder piled up next to Li Ao's side, "Sign on it separately, and I will notify others by email later." ”

Li Ao took the pen, opened the first folder and saw Duan Xuchu's signature, his fingers trembled uncontrollably, it was not that he was incapable of taking on a big responsibility, nor that he was weak and indecisive, but that he, like the other two, did not want Duan Xuchu to quit the organization, or rather, this meant that Duan Xuchu would no longer be their second brother in the future, and they could no longer be loyal to Duan Xuchu.

Thinking like this, Li Ao suddenly felt that his eyes were moist and hot, and he threw down the pen suddenly, he stood up and lowered his head and said earnestly: "Second brother, please think twice." ”

Wen Jiaren and Lian Zihan also got up closely, and Lian Zihan spoke first to persuade: "The second brother has broken off relations with the Duan family for many years, and you have given up the identity of the Jiang family's son-in-law, and now you quit the M2K organization, which means that from now on, the second brother, you will have nothing, second brother, have you really figured it out?" ”

Wen Jiaren asked, "What happened to make the second brother suddenly make such a decision?" ”

"It's not so exaggerated, I have my own talent and ability, and quitting the M2K organization won't have much impact on me." Duan Xuchu was not moved, after closing the laptop, he stood up, and when he turned his back to the three of them, his original calm expression became pale and painful at the moment, he closed his eyes hard, stood there with his hands in his hands, and looked indifferent and inviolable from behind, "I have already decided, you don't have to persuade me anymore." ”

Li Ao shouted hoarsely: "Second brother! ”

Duan Xuchu was still immovable, his lips pursed, resolute and stiff.

Li Ao glanced at Wen Jiaren and Lian Zihan, and then took a step forward, Li Ao's handsome eyebrows were firm, "Since the second brother insists on this, then the three of us will also voluntarily quit M2K and swear to follow the second brother to the death." This is not a threat, we respect the second brother's choice, and we also ask the second brother not to dislike us. ”

Duan Xuchu's shoulders shook slightly, expecting that the three of them didn't want to leave him, he was not surprised, more moved, after a while, his fingers rubbed his temples, and said helplessly: "Why do you want to ........ like this"

Wen Jiaren said in a low voice: "Because from the day I made up my mind to follow the second brother, I have sworn that I will not betray or abandon the second brother no matter whether it is good or bad, life or death. No matter why the second brother quits the organization, please allow us to continue to follow. ”

Duan Xuchu was speechless.

Li Ao picked up the tail ring and pondered for a while and proposed: "If the second brother really doesn't have the energy to take care of M2K anymore, I can temporarily take the position of the leader of M2K, but the supreme ruler of M2K is still the second brother, and the second brother takes the income of the organization as usual every year, and the people in the organization still obey the second brother." To put it simply, I will do everything, and the second brother will sit back and enjoy the success, just take the money and don't ask about anything, just be a hands-off shopkeeper. ”

There are nearly 1,000 people under Duan Xuchu's hands, rich and poor all over the world, from all walks of life, on the surface, they are no different from ordinary people, but in fact they are all hidden masters.

It's just that there is very little contact between these people on weekdays, and due to the nature of their work, it is difficult for Duan Xuchu to contact them in many cases, but every year everyone without exception will hand over part of their income to Duan Xuchu, which shows how rich Duan Xuchu is, which is why so many people covet the position of the leader of M2K——— it represents supreme power and wealth.

Of course, some people simply cannot understand the hardships and sorrows of being in a high position.

Duan Xuchu didn't say anything else, and when Li Ao signed the document, he picked up his coat and car keys, "I made an appointment with Chi Beizhi and a few people to meet, Li Ao, you send an email to the others on my behalf, and then have a meeting with them when I come back." Wen Jiaren and Lian Zihan also stayed behind to help me take care of Nannan. ”

The three of them breathed a sigh of relief, "Yes." ”

***

Since Pei Yanjie made a fuss in the ward yesterday afternoon, Wei Weiwei has never eaten or slept, just sat in the corner with her knees in her head, although she didn't shed any more tears, but in order to prevent Dr. Zhou from lying to her, she kept counting the time second by second, and then Dr. Zhou couldn't bear to watch it, so she didn't lie about the time again.

Fortunately, with the maintenance of medicine, Wei Wei did not suffer anything from the hunger strike, and after a few hours, she was also tired, and buried her head in her knees under the unsupportive body, curled up and fell asleep with her slender body, and Dr. Zhou finally coaxed her back to bed.

At noon the next day, Wei Wei woke up, and after getting the answer that Duan Xuchu didn't come over again, Wei Wei Wei lifted the quilt and got out of bed without saying anything.

Doctor Zhou was startled when he saw this, and hurriedly reached out to support Wei Weiyi, "What's wrong, Miss Wei?" If you need anything, just tell me. As she spoke, she pressed Wei Wei back into the bed.

Wei Wei grabbed Dr. Zhou's hand all of a sudden, "Ah Chu doesn't come, I don't have to wait, I'll go to him now." ”

"Calm down, Miss Wei." Dr. Zhou held Wei Wei's hand instead, and persuaded very gently in his heart: "The matter has come to this, you give up!" Pei Yanjie has already made it very clear, she is with Mr. Duan, which means that the relationship between you and Mr. Duan is over, and the reason why Mr. Duan does not come may be that it may be difficult to face you on the one hand, and his meaning is obvious, isn't it? Miss Wei, don't be stupid. ”

"Shut up!" Wei Wei shook off Dr. Zhou's hand with all her might, her heart was tearing and painful, her whole body was trembling, and she roared hysterically, "Why is he like this?!" What did he think of me? Even if you don't want me, don't I even have the qualifications to ask for a definite answer in person? I still have his son in my belly, and my six-year-old daughter is still with him, why doesn't he even give me an explanation? ”

"Miss Wei, Mr. Duan didn't leave you alone, he asked us to take good care of you and heal your eyes. You cooperate with us, and after a while, Mr. Duan will come........"

"I'm not waiting." Although Wei Weiyi's emotions were out of control, her mind was very clear, she interrupted Dr. Zhou's words, tears welling up and flowing down her pale face, "I don't want anything, I just want him to be by my side." Dr. Zhou ........", she fumbled and grabbed Dr. Zhou's wrist again, and begged in a choked voice: "I don't want to give up the relationship between me and Ah Chu like this, take me to see him, I want to hear him tell me in person that he and Pei Yanjie are married, and he doesn't want me anymore......."
