Chapter 258: Xu Zhengting's Confession
As soon as Su Ruo got home, he immediately found the medical box and carefully rubbed the medicine for him, which Xu Shoufan was too heavy.
Su Ruo didn't understand what they had talked about, so that he could make such a move.
She could see that Xu Shoufan couldn't wait to let him stay by his side, otherwise he wouldn't have instructed Gu Jing to come to them, hoping that they would go back.
After wiping the medicine, Xu Zhengting was about to go to the study without saying a word, Su Ruo almost dragged him with a half-coquettish drag before taking him back to the room to sleep.
His mood is not stable at all now, and she doesn't feel comfortable leaving him alone.
When Xu Zhengting encounters troubles, or is unhappy, he will smoke, smoke fiercely, and every time he doesn't let her know, he hides in the study alone.
"Don't smoke, go to bed, just get up with a good night's sleep." Su Ruoqiang pulled him to lie on the bed.
"I'm going to the study for something, good, you go to sleep first."
Xu Zhengting hugged her, the cold expression on his face had not eased, and as soon as he got up, he was pulled back by Su Ruo.
Su Ruo got into his arms, tugged at his clothes with his hands, and said beggingly: "Just accompany me, let's sleep, okay?" ”
Xu Zhengting finally chose to remain silent.
Su Ruo couldn't sleep, closed her eyes and let out a steady breath, all of which was so unexpected that the death of the Overseer hastened the deterioration of their father-son relationship.
And when Xu Shoufan was yelling at him, no one came out to help him.
Su Ruo only felt a sadness in his heart, the so-called family affection was so vulnerable in the face of power and interests.
Xu Zhengting has always been strong in front of her, how could she ever see him so angry and helpless.
The two hugged each other for most of the night, Xu Zhengting still got up, and ran downstairs to smoke alone, Su Ruo looked at his lonely back, and his nose was sour.
He must have felt bad, but she couldn't do anything about it.
Su Ruo stretched out her hand to wipe away the tears that were about to overflow from the corners of her eyes, and stood silently in place, he needed space to think, so she didn't bother him.
But she also wanted to accompany him, even if it was silently watching like this.
It's been a long time.
Xu Zhengting extinguished the cigarette, got up from the darkness, walked to Su Ruo, hugged her, looked at him for a long time, and then turned into a helpless sigh, and said, "Why are you so stubborn." ”
Su Ruo's eyes turned red instantly, sniffed, and said in a low voice, "The smell of smoke is terrible." She couldn't see his expression, but he must have spotted her early in the morning.
He was immersed in his emotions and refused to leave easily, even if he found her, he didn't let her go back in the first place.
But the tug-of-war between her and him ended up being won by her.
Xu Zhengting carried her back to the room, but was still silent for a long time, and finally suppressed his voice and spoke, his voice was low, but the words he said made Su Ruo tremble.
Originally, she wondered why he didn't have a good relationship with his family, he didn't want to go back anyway, and the conversation was perfunctory, but all of this had an answer tonight.
He hugged her and told her about the origin of his parents' marriage, and talked about the bloody past entanglements ten years ago.
She listened to his suppressed grief and slowly poured out his disappointment, the unpleasant loss of his childhood, and the loneliness of being expelled from the sea.
Su Ruo couldn't help but tremble, he had never told her this, and Xu Zhengyan had never told her anything about the complicated feelings and hatred between their brothers.
She had vaguely heard Shen Lansheng say that Shen Qiu had also revealed a little bit to her, but where was there such a thrilling tragic blood.
Su Ruo was silent for a long time, and then thought about what Xu Shoufan had done in the past, moved his lips, and said, "Perhaps, your father wants you to reconcile......
"How is that possible?" Xu Zhengting sneered, interrupted, and a bitterness flowed from his voice, "It's already come to this point, how can I stop fighting?" My father told me not to fight, but where is this a position matter? He's trying to kill me! ”
Now that the Overseer has died, Xu Shoufan is bound to be the next Overseer, but the position of his commander-in-chief is vacant.
Whoever takes this position will hold Lindong firmly in his hands.
Su Ruo raised his head to look at him, and when he saw the ridicule and pain in his eyes, he couldn't help but feel a pain in his heart, and clenched his hand.
Xu Zhengting looked at her slowly and buried his head in her neck.
"He has always favored the fourth brother, and only the fourth brother is his treasure. He only knew that I hated the fourth brother, but he didn't want to believe how much the fourth brother hated me! ”
"Back then, it was clear that the fourth brother wanted to put me to death, but he didn't let me fight with him, but sent me abroad and used my departure to pave the way for the fourth brother."
"He clearly knows that even if I let it, the fourth brother will not let me go, but he still let me let me, do you only know Father, he wants my life!"
Su Ruo leaned on him in a daze, she didn't know that there would be so many doorways here, and when she heard the sentence that she wanted his life, she couldn't help but tremble.
There seems to be a bloody scene like ten years ago in front of her eyes, has it really reached the point of life and death between him and Xu Zhengyan?
Su Ruo didn't know what to say, she could only hug him tightly.
"You know what? There was no one of my brothers who followed me back then. They did something wrong again, the fourth brother didn't let them go at all, a whole gang, and there was no one alive. ”
Feeling her trembling, Xu Zhengting moved his head out, stared at her with dark and deep eyes, and said in a hoarse voice: "Ruoruo, I won't lose, no matter what, I won't lose." ”
"You..." Su Ruo looked at his reddened eyes and was speechless for a long time.
Then, Xu Zhengting hooked the corners of his mouth self-deprecatingly, and said, "How can I tell you this?" She still has a fourth brother in her heart, and he told her what to do.
She's probably the last person who wants to see the two of them fight.
For a while, a lot flashed in Su Ruo's mind, and it seemed that he hadn't thought of anything, and many things came to light little by little.
Xu Shoufan looked at her eyes, his resolute attitude, as well as Xu Jinling's ruthless determination towards her, and Gu Jing's disapproving attitude, seemed to have found an explanation all at once.
It turned out that she was the weight that triggered the imbalance in the balance of their brotherly hatred. Eventually, they will fight each other, and you will live or die.
Su Ruo's heart trembled, hugged him hard, and said firmly: "I will not leave you." "Never.
She couldn't let him go, leave him. If no one understands him, then she will understand, and if no one loves him, then she will hurt.
"I'm not going to lose." Xu Zhengting also hugged her hard, as if he wanted to rub her into her bones and blood, repeating it over and over again.
Su Ruo didn't want him to lose, but what if he won? What did you get in exchange for killing Xu Zhengyan, and then making his father hate him for the rest of his life, and making Zeng Yue lose her husband?
The heavy reality weighed on her heart, leaving her breathless.
Su Ruo leaned on his arms, listening to his powerful and heavy heartbeat, there were many miscellaneous threads, she closed her eyes, and scenes from Li Jiang appeared in her eyes.
In a trance, she seemed to remember again that a year ago in Lindong, he gave her that badge, and he said to her, "Su Ruo, I only have you now", has he been given up at that time?
His tone was very happy at that time, and he looked calm and breezy.
So behind this is such a heavy, sad and helpless, and bloody fact?
Su Ruo looked at him distressedly, tracing the outline of his face little by little with his hand, and finally gently stroked his still red and swollen face.
He can't listen to anything now, and all he has in his heart is resentment towards his father, as well as hatred for Xu Zhengyan.
She was a bystander, and she could tell that the Overseer and Xu Shoufan were deliberately trying to reconcile them.
Probably, no one thought that the hatred between the two of them had reached the point where it was impossible to break the net.
After the death of the Overseer, the funeral was scheduled for the 10th day of the 10th month of October after the Overseer's house had been suspended for 7749 days, and the wake was usually attended by someone close to him.
Zeng Yue and Xu Jinling are naturally guarding every day and night, Xu Zhengyan and Zeng Yue are already engaged, although they did not get married before the death of the Overseer, but they must arrive every day.
Zeng Dujun's favorite junior before his death was Xu Zhengting, Xu Zhengting was naturally there every day, he was his uncle, his teacher, and elder.
It's just that from beginning to end, Su Ruo was not brought.
And Xu Shoufan's birthday was on September 28, so it didn't happen.
Therefore, relatives and friends from all over the world, as well as those officials who chased Xu Zhengyan to congratulate him on his birthday, focused on the funeral ceremony for Zeng Doujun.
These people were all sent by the front-line coalition forces, Xu Zhengyan wore this hat as the commander-in-chief of the coalition forces on his head, and if he wanted to quit and leave this mess, the coalition forces naturally refused.
Either disband the coalition or wear it out with them.
No one wants to be used as a gunman, and these soldiers are the ones who have fought the Overseers all their lives.
Now they are gathered together, saying that they are fighting the Japanese, but so far they haven't even seen a shadow of the Japanese, and they clearly want to borrow their hands to solve Song Haiping.
They were both defeated, with casualties, and then they happened to be reorganized by him in the name of reform and rectification.
It's a really good idea!
Originally, Xu Zhengyan was the best candidate for the position of commander-in-chief, but he also had the title of commander-in-chief of the coalition forces, so this gave Mu Ting a vacancy.
Mu Ting and Li Xiao, the two of them together got an order from above, and transferred a military commander from Beijing to take up this position.
Mu Ting has been in Lindong for more than a year, and more or less people have been installed in Lindong back then, and that mighty personnel dispatch once gave Zeng Zhi and Xu Shoufan a headache.
None of the senior military commanders in Lindong were willing to let an outsider interfere, but except for Xu Zhengyan, they were not willing to let a second person do this position.
Mu Ting deliberately led the muddy water to Xu Zhengcheng and Xu Zhengting, Xu Zhengcheng knew what his father meant, or did he want Xiao Qi to temporarily replace Xiao Si in this position.
This position can only be assured if it is in the hands of one's own people.
Out of various considerations and helplessness, Xu Zhengcheng simply got himself out of a car accident and saved himself from this trouble.
