Chapter 107: The Ending (2)
Milo looked at Xu Zhiheng, hesitated to take the appraisal result with his nod of encouragement, turned to the last page, and saw that the appraisal conclusion was written in big letters: "Confirm no blood relationship".
At this moment, Milo couldn't tell what kind of mood he was in. Easy? Not. Lost? Not really. She was stunned for a moment, then looked up and said, "Why don't I feel happy at all?" ”
Xu Zhiheng pulled her into his arms, "Because you are too kind." ”
"He must be disappointed to see this result, right?"
"The truth always has to be faced, maybe this way he can leave with more peace of mind."
Milo was silent and did not continue the topic, her feelings for Situ Teng were too complicated, she could neither regard him as a friend nor a criminal.
"Knock, knock, knock" was another knock on the door.
Xu Zhiheng smiled bitterly and touched Milo's head, "It seems that I should really leave this time." I'm sorry I can't be with you at this time. ”
Milo hugged him tightly and kissed him on the lips.
The knock on the door continued, and she gently let go of him, "I'll wait for you." ”
Xu Zhiheng walked over and opened the door, looked at the Xing policeman outside the door and said, "Wait a minute." ”
He turned around and touched Milo's cheek behind him, "Remember what I said to you, and we'll get married when I get back." ”
"Okay." Milo barely held back the tears that were about to well-heave, "Don't worry. ”
Xu Zhiheng turned around and said to Police Xing outside the door: "Let's go!" ”
Milo looked at Xu Zhiheng's disappearing figure, quietly closed the door, leaned his back against the door, slowly squatted down, curled up in a ball, seeking self-protection.
The next day, Milo came to the Lin Group with the documents Xu Zhiheng handed over to her. Lin Xi received a call from the front desk and directly arranged for her to take the president's elevator to the top floor, and he stood at the elevator to greet her personally.
"It's your first time coming to me, please."
He took Milo to the office and invited her to sit on the sofa, "I heard Zhiheng say that you like to drink coffee, try my craft." ”
Milo put the document on the coffee table, "Don't bother, Zhiheng asked me to come and deliver a document, and I'll leave here." ”
Lin Xi took out the coffee powder, "It's not bad for this cup of coffee, is it?" ”
He used a Moka pot and quickly brewed two servings of coffee, which was poured into a white coffee cup, the coffee was strong, and a layer of pale white coffee grease floated on it.
"Give it a try." He handed one of them to Milo.
Milo took a sip, and the aroma of coffee instantly filled his teeth and cheeks, and the thick taste revealed a wild fruity aroma, which was Yemeni mocha coffee.
Lin Xi opened the file bag brought by Milo, took out the share perpetual power of attorney and looked at it, and smiled slightly bitterly.
Milo said: "Zhiheng said that this document, you will need it in a few days." ”
"The old man is gone, and in a few days, the Lin board of directors will elect a new chairman of the group, and with this thing, others will not have any chance."
"If only I could help you. I congratulate you in advance on behalf of Zhiheng. ”
Lin Xi put the documents back on the coffee table, shook his head and said, "I hope he can accept these shares according to the old man's wishes, but he still refuses to fulfill the old man's wish after all." ”
"He's a guy who sticks to his ideas."
Lin Xi looked at Milo, "How are you?" ”
"I'm fine."
"Don't worry, he should be back soon, a lot of things need to work, and it will take time to settle." Lin Xi didn't know how much Milo knew, he said it very implicitly.
"I have faith in him, and what he promised me will be done." Milo stood up, "The coffee was delicious, thank you." I won't bother. ”
"Milo take care of yourself, if there's anything, just come to me." Lin Xi took out a business card of his own and handed it to her.
"Okay."
A week later, Lin Xi was officially elected as the new chairman of Lin's Group, and Lin's stock price was red all the way.
WHEN THE NEWS WAS BROADCAST, MILO WAS LEARNING TO COOK IN THE KITCHEN WITH AN IPAD, AND THERE WAS NO DAY WHEN XU ZHIHENG GAVE UP TAKEOUT AND INSTANT NOODLES, SHE HAD TO TAKE CARE OF HERSELF AND NOT LET HIM WORRY.
Hearing the news broadcast on TV, she put down her work, listened carefully, and the corners of her mouth rose up.
Time flies, three months have passed in a blink of an eye, and J City has officially entered winter. In the cold wind of Xiao Suo, Ah Wei strode into the J City Detention Center on the outskirts of the city.
In the reception room of the detention center, Ah Wei saw Li Ming in prison clothes through the thick glass. Although he was commuted because he voluntarily provided evidence and became a tainted witness, he still needs to serve 10 years in prison here.
Ah hooked his lips, picked up the phone, pointed to Li Ming on the other side, and motioned for him to answer the phone.
Li Ming looked at him coldly for a long time before he picked up the phone and quietly did not squeak. He lost a lot of weight, and his whole body was more gloomy and lifeless than before. He once tried to commit suicide, but was found and saved by a prisoner in the same warehouse, which can be regarded as picking up a life, but he has lost the will to live, and he is only a walking dead when he lives.
"Why did you refuse to visit?" This was the third time he had come, and Li Ming's records had refused all visits, and he had not seen anyone the first two times. If he hadn't used some small tricks this time, he wouldn't have seen Li Ming.
"Because no one will come but you." Li Ming said coldly.
"You know and refuse, aren't we friends?"
"Friends?" Li Ming sneered, "I saw Han Yu that day, you are in a group." He was referring to the day he was arrested.
Ah Wei lowered his eyes and was silent for a while, "Yes, we do have different positions, but it is also true that I treat you as a friend." ”
Li Ming sneered: "How long do you have to pretend?" Before I turned myself in, I tidied up my room and found the surveillance device you had hidden inside on the mattress you took me to. You've been using me all the time. I was the one who hurt my husband. ”
"Listen to me, it's not like that. I put it in, but I didn't use the information in it. You didn't hurt anyone. ”
"You think it's better for me to say this now?"
Ah Wei looked at Li Ming, whose cheeks were sinking, "I know it's useless to say anything now, but, as a friend, I still hope you can cheer up." ”
"Cheer up? Is this still necessary? I don't even know what the point of living like this is. I'd rather die. ”
"Don't think so, life is still worth looking forward to."
Li Ming pulled the corners of his mouth bitterly, "I came to see you today, just to tell you not to come in the future, this is the last time we will meet." ”
After speaking, he brought the phone attached to his ear and prepared to hang up the phone and leave.
"Wait, listen to me, I'm here to bring you hope, if you leave now, you will definitely regret it."
Li Ming's distracted eyes looked at him in confusion.
"You wait, come right away. Wait. Ah Wei put down the phone, opened the door of the meeting room, looked left and right, the narrow corridor was empty, he looked at his watch anxiously, and then stretched his neck to look in the direction of the entrance.
Three figures appeared at the end of the corridor in the distance, and the monster waved desperately at them, and then pointed to the watch on his wrist, signaling them to hurry up.
Chen Xi looked at the discipline beside him, discipline tightened his hand and held her hand, lowered his body to pick up the child, and the two of them sped up.
Outside the door of the meeting room, Discipline handed the child over to Chen Xi and combed the broken hair in her ear, "Go, I'll wait for you here." ”
In the meeting room, Li Ming, who had been sitting dry, was about to get up and leave, and when he saw Chen Xi leading the child, he paused, and a small light flashed in his chaotic eyes.
Chen Xi saw Li Ming's hesitation for a moment, she looked back at Ah Wei, who nodded slightly and encouraged her. She handed the child into Ah Wei's hands, and slowly walked to the chair opposite Li Ming and sat down.
Li Ming grabbed the microphone urgently, "Xixi." ”
"It was Ah Monster who asked me to come, he said that you were having a bad time, and you tried to commit suicide, why are you so stupid? You weren't like this before, you have a lot of plans for the future, you ......" Chen Xi couldn't go on.
The corners of Li Ming's eyes moistened, he didn't know what to say, he used to have a lot of plans, and there was her in each plan, but now, what other plans did he have? She is gone, Shenglian is gone, Mr. doesn't know life and death, his life is meaningless, what plan is there to talk about?
"Is he good to you?" In the middle of the night, Li Ming asked, his low voice full of bitterness.
Chen Xi nodded, "I'm fine, you don't have to worry." ”
Li Ming looked at her deeply, and vigorously turned her image into a memory and engraved it in his mind, "That's good, you have a child, you don't have to come to this kind of place." ”
"Brother Ming......" Chen Xi choked up a little, "I just want you to see the child, his name is Li Zheng, and he is five years old this year." I wanted him to be a decent man, so I gave him this name. ”
"Li Zheng, Li ......" Li Ming's eyes lit up, and he looked at Chen Xi in disbelief, "You mean ......"
"Yes, he's your child." Chen Xi beckoned to Ah Wei, "Baby, come here." ”
Chen Xi held the child in his arms and let him sit on his lap, "Baby, say hello to your uncle." ”
The child blinked at Li Ming with big bright and clear eyes, and covered his head in Chen Xi's arms.
Chen Xi said to Li Ming with some embarrassment: "He is still young, I haven't told him about you, I don't know how to tell him." ”
Li Ming sighed and said, "Needless to say, it's good to call uncle." His slightly trembling hand stroked the child's face through the glass, "Xixi, I never understand, why did you suddenly want to leave back then?" What the hell is going on? Can you tell me? ”
Chen Xi hesitated and looked back at Ah Wei, who raised his eyes and looked at the surveillance camera above the meeting room, prompting Chen Xi to pay attention.
Li Ming looked at their expressions, and his heart sank, "Why can't you say it?" I've been thinking about this for six years, can you let me die? Why do you leave even though you are pregnant with a child? ”
Chen Xi lowered his eyes, and his thoughts drifted back to six years ago, "Do you still remember, you were very busy during that time, and often told me that you were going to work overtime in the office?" ”
Li Ming nodded, at that time, he had just ascended to Situ Teng's side and received his attention, and several transactions of Shenglian were successfully cracked by the police, he was busy dealing with related legal affairs while looking for undercover agents hidden inside Shenglian, and he was very busy every day. Chen Xi always thought that he was just an ordinary lawyer, and he didn't tell Chen Xi about his affairs in Shenglian, but only said that there were cases to be handled overtime.
Chen Xi continued: "At that time, you had been working overtime until late at night for five or six consecutive nights before going home, I was very worried about your health, so I made soup and sent it to you, but I just arrived at the door of your office while painting, and I saw you coming out of the office in a hurry, your car was driving fast, as if something had happened, I was not at ease, so I let the driver follow you." That's how I followed you to an abandoned factory. ”
Li Ming's face turned pale, and his voice trembled slightly, "You saw it all?" Li Ming clearly remembered the events of that day, because it was the first time he really took a person's life, watching that person collapse in front of him little by little, and lose the signs of life. He couldn't forget the despair in his eyes, and the blood on his hands.
It was also on that day that he successfully found and executed the undercover police agent, which completely won Situ Teng's attention, and since then he has become his most trusted right and left hand.
Chen Xi continued: "I was frightened, I didn't expect the person I always loved to be so cold-blooded and terrifying, I didn't expect you to ......" She raised her eyes and looked at the camera head in the corner, paused, and didn't say any more.
Li Ming's whole person seemed to be deflated, he didn't expect such a terrible and bloody scene to be seen by Chen Xi. Over the years, he has been looking for her, resenting her, and hating her, but he never thought that it was because of his own reasons that she would leave like a fugitive, far away from her relatives and hometown, and live alone with her children.
Chen Xi sorted out his emotions and continued: "I'm so scared, I don't know what to do, I just want to escape. So I hurriedly packed a few bags and left J City on the first bus, I didn't even notice where the bus was going, so I tossed and turned several times in order not to find me, and finally settled down in a small town in Guangxi. At that time, I knew that I was pregnant with your child, and I thought about killing him, but I was reluctant to do so. ”
She looked down at the child in her arms, her head resting on top of his head, "He doesn't like to talk much, the doctor said he is a little autistic, but he is very smart and obedient, his favorite thing is to draw, next time I will bring his painting to show you, he really draws very well." ”
Li Ming looked at her and the child, gritted his teeth and said, "No need, you don't have to come again." Xixi, I'm sorry, I didn't know about you......" He choked up at the thought of what she might have suffered as a single woman with a child in a different place.
After a while, he rubbed his face, raised his head again, and said, "Discipline is good, if you follow him, I will be relieved." The child is still young, you really don't have to come over again, and I am relieved to know that you are all right. ”
Chen Xi's tears also fell, "Take good care of yourself, don't do stupid things anymore, reform well, strive to reduce Xing, and come out as soon as possible." ”
Li Ming squeezed out a smile bitterly, "Okay." Rest assured! It's not too early, you can go back with your children! You help me call Ah Wei over, I have something to say to him. ”
Chen Xi nodded and said to the child in his arms, "Baby, say goodbye to uncle." ”
The child showed bright big eyes from Chen Xi's arms, looked at Li Ming curiously, suddenly curled the corners of his mouth and smiled, raised his fleshy little hand, and waved, "Goodbye!" ”
Li Mingqiang's tears that he had endured for a long time finally fell.
Ah Wei sat down in front of Li Ming again, and seeing that he was crying like a child, he thought that at least he was really alive.
After a long time, Li Ming held back his tears, picked up the microphone and said, "Thank you." ”
"Don't say stupid things, we're friends, as we should. I'm still waiting for you to come out and drink with me!" But this time it's okay, get drunk and you sleep on the ground. ”
The corners of Li Ming's mouth twitched a few times, "Okay, it's a word." ”
He paused and continued: "Help me take care of Chen Xi, don't let discipline bully her and the child." ”
"Don't worry, I'll stay in J City to help you keep an eye on them."
……
On the streets, the city is bustling with flashing neon lights, beautiful Christmas trees and various Christmas decorations.
Milo came out of the supermarket with big bags of things, and today she made an appointment with Elena and He Bi to spend Christmas together, and she was in charge of shopping for food.
In the past three months, she sent Ms. Cao away and formally submitted her resignation to Fei Yifan. At her suggestion, Elena began to take over her work gradually, and the handover between the two went very smoothly. After New Year's Day, Elena officially took over her role as the new chief executive officer of Viva Electromechanical.
For Elena, Milo's heart always has some indescribable guilt, it must be that she caused Elena to lose her last loved one and lose her home. Fortunately, He Bi doted on Elena very much, and under his careful care, Elena regained her former cheerfulness.
Elena didn't know Xu Zhiheng's true identity, nor did she know the role of these people in solving Situ Teng's criminal case. He Bi only vaguely felt that things were not so simple, but he didn't have a particularly clear idea. The two of them sincerely care about Milo's life, and they are afraid that she will feel lonely when Xu Zhiheng is not here, so they always arrange various activities to accompany Milo. This also made Milo even more ashamed.
The League's missions are all kept secret, and she will never be able to confess to Elena, so she can only help Elena in her work as best she can, carefully compensating. Today, for example, she bought a lot of Elena's favorite snacks and prepared Christmas gifts for her.
Carrying things home, as soon as I entered the door, my eyes were covered by Elena, "What the hell are you doing?" ”
"Surprise, surprise!" Elena screamed, covering Milo's eyes, and pushed her to the living room.
Milo's heart beat abruptly, surprise meant only one thing to her.
"When, when, when." Elena let go of her hand, and a Christmas tree more than a meter tall and covered with decorations was presented to Milo.
"How? Is it pretty? Elena asked excitedly.
Milo's heart fell to the bottom like a roller coaster, and she barely managed to squeeze out a smile, "Well, it's so beautiful, it must have taken a lot of effort!" ”
Elena didn't notice it, and still said excitedly, "Yes! I spent an afternoon with Ho Bi. ”
He Bi saw that Milo's mood was not high, and asked, "Are you tired?" Just the three of us, we don't have to buy so much food. ”
At this time, there was a knock on the door, and Milo hurriedly walked to open the door, she always felt that Xu Zhiheng should come back.
The door opened, and Ah Wei walked in, "Sister-in-law." ”
Milo looked behind him, "What about Zhiheng?" Why didn't he come back? ”
"Sister-in-law, don't worry, my brother asked me to pick you up."
"Pick me up? Where to? ”
Ah Wei smiled, waved his hand to Elena and He Bi, "You two are here too!" Great, I don't have to run again, let's go together! ”
Milo followed Ah Monster into the car with a puzzled stomach and came all the way to the airport. A private jet was parked on the runway, and Lin Xi stood at the door of the cabin, "Come on, I'll act as a pilot for you today." ”
"What the hell are you guys doing?"
"Sister-in-law, don't ask so much, I can still pit you!"
Milo was pulled into a special cabin, where a professional stylist began to put on makeup, comb her hair, and change her into a white dress with a beautiful diamond necklace.
The plane slowly landed on the lawn, and Monster, dressed in a light gray suit, made a gesture of invitation to Milo.
Elena also changed into a lilac dress, holding He Bi, who was also wearing a light gray suit, walked behind Milo, and got off the plane together.
The lawn is filled with guests in an archway lined with flowers, and in the middle is a walkway paved with red rose petals. No sooner had Milo reached the arch than the wedding march sounded. Xu Zhiheng stood at the other end of the red aisle in a white suit, looking at her with a smile.
At this time, Mi's father and Mi's mother also appeared in front of Milo, "Xiao Luo." ”
Milo said in surprise: "Dad, Mom, why are you here?" ”
"It was Zhiheng who picked us up, Xiao Luo, today is the big day of your life, how can your parents be absent." Mi's mother puts a white veil on Milo's head.
Mi's father bent his arms, "Xiao Luo, let Dad personally send you to another man who loves you, and he will take care of and pamper you in the future." ”
Milo took Mi's father's arm, stepped on the wedding march, and walked towards the man she would love for the rest of her life amid a round of blessed applause.
……
Six months have passed in the blink of an eye, and Milo is lying on a deck chair on the beach in a wide morning coat, with his hands on his slightly bulging belly.
Xu Zhiheng sat beside her and put the peeled grapes in her mouth, "Wife, how is your health today?" Did the baby kick you? ”
"Kick, he said you're too slow to pull the grape skin, tell you to concentrate!"
"Howler! Compliance. ”
At this time, Milo's mobile phone rang, and Xu Zhiheng ran over first and took the phone.
Milo stretched out his hand, "Give it to me." ”
"My wife can't do it, there is radiation, I will be your microphone." Xu Zhiheng picked up the phone, "It's Elena." ”
He said "um" to the phone a few times, and then said, "Okay, I'll see you then." ”
Milo glared at Xu Zhiheng, who had already hung up the phone, "How do you use the microphone and pass it at the same time?" ”
Xu Zhiheng smiled and said, "I forgot about it when I was happy." Wife, Elena is getting married, this Saturday, Long Island Hotel. ”
Milo sat up with a "Teng", "Then what are you waiting for, pack your bags and go back." She said as she walked towards the seaside villa.
"Wife, slow down, be careful of our son."
"The wedding gift hasn't been prepared yet, and if you don't set off, it's too late."
……
On the large lawn of the Long Island Hotel, a triangular glass auditorium is filled with flowers, balloons, and streamers, and outside the auditorium is a banquet in the form of a buffet.
Wearing a one-shoulder fishtail wedding dress studded with diamonds, Elena stepped into the auditorium under the support of Fei Yifan and slowly walked towards He Bi.
Milo stood among relatives and friends, clapping her palms vigorously, tears of excitement in her eyes, and in the midst of her eyes, she saw a familiar figure in the crowd. Although he wore a hat with a low brim, she still recognized him at a glance - Situ Teng.
He saw her too, and his eyes met and he smiled. In the blink of an eye, it disappeared again.
