Two years later......

There are three tombs in front of this joint burial group, in the middle is He Zhanting, the former president of Augus, who is famous in the business community of Lucheng, on the left is his wife Xin Mu, who is sanctioned by national law, and on the right is engraved with the words "Lucheng daughter" is his daughter He Yina - that is, He Chong's half-sister.

He Chong put all the yellow and white chrysanthemums on the steps of the tomb, and wiped the three tombstones with a towel, and then got up from the ground. He took off his sunglasses, patted the dust on his knees, and was about to speak to the tombstone when he heard someone call him.

"Chairman, Chairman......"

Looking back, the secretary Xiao Yuan was walking up the path of the cemetery, because he was wearing high heels, he was very careful, and he was afraid that he would break his foot.

"Chairman, Mr. Huang of Miller Group wants to see you."

All the way up the stairs, Xiao Yuan was so tired that he couldn't breathe, and only after conveying the affairs did he hold his legs and arch his waist to gasp.

He Chong didn't react much, calmly took out three cups from his bag, poured wine in turn, placed them in front of the tomb, and handed them over. After a while, he asked without looking back: "Didn't you tell him that I wasn't empty today?" ”

"I said it, but he was in a hurry, saying that he would fly early tomorrow morning, and hoped that the contract could be finalized today."

"How can there be so many urgent things, if you don't talk about it today, won't you be able to do business tomorrow?"

Xiao Yuan shrunk his neck and looked at him with some puzzlement.

"But haven't the details been passed, does the chairman have any other plans?"

"I've passed it here, and Mr. Yang hasn't reviewed it yet."

Seeing that the chrysanthemums in front of his father's monument were not arranged in an irregular manner, He Chong leaned over to tidy it up again, and then nodded with satisfaction.

Xiao Yuan showed an embarrassed expression, and cautiously suggested: "Chairman, with all due respect, Mr. Yang's mind doesn't seem to be in the company, and she has also said that everything is up to you, this is a big deal, or ......."

He Chong interrupted her unceremoniously.

"Otherwise, the company is not my own, and Mr. Yang also has a share. It's one thing for her to bother or not, it's another thing for me to discuss it with her, don't talk so much nonsense. ”

was counted down, and Xiao Yuan had no choice but to say, "Oh, I know." ”

He Chong sighed softly and touched his father's name on the tombstone.

"Tell Mr. Huang that I really can't spare time to meet him today, and I will contact him when I find Mr. Yang later. Ogu can't promise anything for the time being, but he can promise that he will not contact other partners during the negotiation with them Miller, so please rest assured. ”

Xiao Yuan looked down the mountain and replied, "Understood...... But he is now outside the cemetery, is he sent away? ”

"If you don't leave, why don't you stay here for sightseeing?"

"yes, I know what to do."

"Don't wait for me, I'm going to talk to my family today, and I'll go back later." He Chong knelt down towards the tombstone, folded his hands, and closed his eyes slightly.

Xiao Yuan had no choice but to bow politely to the three monuments, and then went down the mountain step by step.

The surroundings returned to tranquility, He Chong kowtowed and saluted the incense, then stood up again, put his hand in front of him naturally, and his eyes fell on the stele of his adoptive mother Xin Mu.

Xin Mu's lips on the portrait are slightly opened, smiling happily, although it is a black and white photo, it is difficult to hide the appearance of a beautiful woman with red cheeks and white teeth. She was executed in July last year, and before her execution, she refused all visits, including He Chong's adopted son. July Liuhuo is just like her domineering character, although there is no way to deny the accusations, she does not show half remorse. If there is anything she regrets, I am afraid there is only one thing, that is, she should have eliminated He Chong a few years ago, just like those other "enemies".

He Chong knew about these, but he couldn't hate it. Despite the endless pain of being left alone in the world, he knew that there was another person who was more tragic than him, and his heart was broken more than a hundred times for this person......

This person is He Yina, the most beautiful girl in Lucheng, and not only that, but she may also be the smartest and most capable. Noble birth, superior personal conditions, unsurpassed family background - she is completely the darling of the Creator.

But there is one crucial thing missing in Hoina's life, luck. She was born in a patriarchal family, with a pair of parents who were hungry for interests, and perhaps He Chong, an untimely younger brother, who became a victim.

At the time of burial, He Chong deliberately told the makeup artist to restore her appearance to the best, so that when the body was said goodbye, she would look less like a corpse, but like a sleeping princess in a fairy tale. He Chong loves her, even if she is pushed down the reservoir by her own hands.

He took a sharp breath, forced back the sour pain that filled his nasal cavity, and turned to look at his father, He Zhanting's tombstone, seriously.

If you ask where the tragedy came from, He Zhanting is definitely the source. His early career history made him an out-and-out "cold-blooded animal", selfish, domineering, fierce, ruthless, and unscrupulous. He calculates his friends, plays with women, cheats and cheats, and ignores the law. To this day, there are still people who talk about his actions after tea and dinner, expressing undisguised disdain.

But there is one thing He Chong admires his father very much. In the treatment of his children, He Zhanting fulfilled the responsibilities of a father, at least in the last stage of his life. He could have continued to live, but he had to endure a stroke, hemiplegia and some other physical discomfort caused by aging, but he gave up. He gave up not because of pessimism or burnout, but because of the most precious and best wish for life - he transplanted his heart to his other child, Yang Qianye.

Before he died, he forgave everyone, perhaps himself. He hopes to give a heart without impurities and resentment to Chiba, who has been indebted for many years, so that this daughter can live an ordinary life without hatred from now on. This heavy gift condensed all his experiences as a human being, and also filled with a new understanding of what he means by "wealth".

After mourning for a while, He Chong slowly closed his eyes, and every time he thought of these things in the past, he felt that the world was extremely dirty. Fortunately, this cemetery is quiet and undisturbed, and the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, and he hopes that they can be completely liberated when they sleep here.

But how he could free himself, he didn't know.

Walking out of the cemetery, Miller's Mr. Huang left in a funny way, and He Chong drove straight to a flower shop in the east of the city.

Gerbera, diamond rose, caryophyllus, lily...... Clusters of delicate flowers bloom in the window, as if you can smell the fragrance through the glass.

Yang Qianye was wrapped in a turban and held a large handful of freshly trimmed irises.

"Here we are...... "She beckoned," she greeted Ho Chong, inserting the flower in her hand into the flower bucket.

He Chong picked a rose and smelled it, which was somewhat similar to the aroma of apples.

"I'm more idle today, so I'll come and see you."

Chiba raised his head, and his two faces were red like rouge.

"I guess you'll come, Xiao Yuan called me just now."

"Oh." He Chong shrugged his brow and kneaded the rose into countless petals.

"My attitude is still like that, Ogu is yours, you should have full control, you don't need to ask me for advice."

"When Dad died, he made it clear that Ogu, you are half and I am half, how can you let me be the master alone. You call it laziness, you know? ”

Hearing this, Chiba lowered her eyes noncommittally, deliberately fiddling with the flowers that didn't need to be fiddled with, and even turned her body back. She knew that He Chong's "Dad" was also shouting for her, but it was this title that brought them close together and completely separated.

"I can't help anything, really, Aogu's business is not like a flower shop, just collect money and find money, there is so much knowledge in it, I'm just afraid that the more I help, the more I help." She pursed her lips in explanation.

"I know you're still not going to accept it, but in fact he's your father."

He Chong was waiting, and when she turned around, it would be an excited objection or a wordless silence. In the past two years, there have been many, many discussions on this issue, and Chiba has never been noncommittal. When she learned that He Zhanting was her biological father, she felt that the whole world had collapsed. If the fake father in Yang Huaili hurt her and her mother, then He Zhanting, the real father, is the most primitive force that pushed the mother and daughter to the tragedy.

But she has a trace of compassion, every time she thinks of He Zhanting, it is like thinking of her mother Mo Lianzhi, and her heart aches faintly. At this moment, it was He Zhanting's heart beating in her chest, and she always felt an inexplicable sadness from time to time. But this grief is not as lingering as before, and it can be faded away with just a little sleep.

"What if you accept it, what if you don't accept it, he's dead, mom is dead, I'm an orphan." After thinking for a long time, she said something that made He Chong sad.

"You still have me."

The moment these words blurted out, the eyes of the two intertwined. What Chiba saw was a strong and rippling wave of love, while He Chong saw a lonely and helpless pool of water.

"I know there's still you, brother......" Chiba held back her tears and shouted out the title that made the two of them insurmountable, "If even you are gone, my world will be completely dark." ”

He Chong grabbed her hand, but she pulled it back embarrassedly. He could understand the loneliness in her heart, and he couldn't be himself.

"Chiba, if I weren't brother and sister, would you marry me?"

Chiba bit her upper lip and smiled hard, but did not answer.

Of course, He Chong also understood that this question was meaningless, but he couldn't help but ask it thousands of times in the past two years.

"Tell me, will you?" His obsidian pupils were fixed on her.

Chiba touched his face, his five fingers trembling slightly, keeping them at the same frequency as his eyelashes. She heard blood dripping again from the place in her heart as if she couldn't find a leaky water pipe, but what else could she do about reality in the time to come?

So she sprinkled a bright smile towards He, and asked a little mischievously, "Isn't it good to pick up a sister like me?" ”

"Good, very good, but if ......"

"There are no ifs." She raised her index finger to block his mouth and nodded firmly, "I won't leave you, and you won't leave me, that's enough." ”

He Chong's curiosity about this question was like a peacock closing its screen feathers and putting it away. He seemed to understand whether he understood or not, such as relieved and obsessed, like regret and resignation.

"Yes, there are no ifs, life never allows ifs."

He took Chiba's hand again, and this time the strength showed his brother's infinite tolerance and doting for his sister.

"Hahaha, haha......" A burst of laughter drifted into my ears, and it came from the garden behind the store.

The two looked at each other and smiled, let go of their hands, and walked in one after the other.

Entering the flower shop, Chiba walked straight towards the garden, and He Chong was about to follow, his eyes unconsciously fell on the wall.

Every time he came, he couldn't help but look at it twice—a large wooden frame on the wall, and in the wooden frame hung the dress he had bought for Chiba. I remember that at that time, I deceived her out under the pretext of helping customers pick gifts, and I bought a lot of them, but Chiba didn't think so, so I reluctantly accepted one after saying it, but I never wore it.

At this moment, the clothes are framed in a wooden frame and hung on the wall, like a painting. The spotlight hits it, and the cosmos brooch on the chest is shining golden, like a bright star in the Milky Way, which is beautiful.

He smiled with satisfaction and headed out into the garden.

Seeing him coming, Song Yingchen was very excited, as if he saw the orangutan of the fruit tree dancing. He is still the same beautiful boy, making people see the first rays of the morning sun.

Song Yingchen stretched out his hand and pointed to the center of the garden, and He Chong looked over.

The water column gave birth to half a rainbow under the action of the sun, the water pressure was strong, the water pipe writhed like a snake, and Chiba jumped up and down happily, and his eyebrows and eyes merged with the rainbow......
