2 Chapter 2
Chen Wengang reached out to grope for the desk calendar from nearly 20 years ago, but he didn't have the right head in his hand, and he ended up feeling empty.
He once had just lost the vision of his right eye, and he had to fall down the stairs, but it took a few months to get used to it, so it didn't affect his life too much. At first glance, he regained his intact vision, but felt dizzy again.
But the desk calendar is real. It's not a dream, it's him back.
He stomped on the ground. At his feet was the gray seahorse hair carpet that was laid in every room of the Zheng family, and there was a black chandel on the bedroom wall, and the metal pipe was a little paintless, but he didn't do it, it was cut by Baoqiu with a knife when he was young.
There is also a handmade tourbillon timer on the bookshelf, which was a birthday present from Zheng Yucheng in the past.
Before the age of twenty, he and Zheng Yucheng were inseparable, even if they were not lovers, they were almost like half of their own siblings.
The sky was bright, the time was still daytime, and it was too late to find a clock to confirm, and the phone rang next to it.
Chen Wengang followed the sound and touched his mobile phone on the desk.
The mobile phone is also a model in memory, and it looks a little older by the standards of the future, but it is not hindered to use. Everyone at the Niansheng Foundation knows that Mr. Chen does not pursue all trendy electronic products, does not rely on the Internet, does not register any social accounts, and only uses his mobile phone to make calls and send text messages, living like a conservative ancient.
Some people think he is otherworldly, and with the scar that covers half of his face, every newcomer to the company has guessed his story.
The memories belonging to the twenty-year-old Chen Wengang are in place one by one, and as a philanthropist Mr. Chen, it is like a distant dream.

Before connecting, Chen Wengang looked at the caller ID, "Lu Chenlong".
This name belongs to his young hair, the neighbors who grew up together as children, and used to have a very good relationship.
The voice on the other end of the phone sounded urgent: "Wengang! Are you okay? โ
"Aaron." Chen Wengang didn't know what he was talking about, so he asked quietly, "Don't panic, what can I do?" โ
"He Wanxin!" The other party said, "Even I've heard about it, how did she do it, go to school to trouble you, and insult you in public, what's going on?" Also, how did you hear that there are still people posting big-character posters to slander you, do you know who did it? โ
Chen Wengang couldn't react a little when he heard this name, but he still said: "It's not a big problem, you don't have to worry." โ
Lu Chenlong did not go to college and went out of society as an apprentice very early. He admires and honors Chen Wengang, a friend with bright academic qualifications. Before that, Lu Chenlong, as a good friend, also knew that Chen Wengang and his Zheng Gongzi were in a relationship in private.
What happened just now, Lu Chenlong listened to a sentence left and right, and the rumors were mixed together, and he couldn't figure out why he was naturally in a hurry.
Chen Wengang finally remembered what time it was.
For a while, I still didn't know where to start explaining to him.
He Wanxin Miss He, who is the person?
Zheng Yucheng talks about marriage, the future little Mrs. Zheng, and the mother of Zheng Yucheng's child.
But now she doesn't have that status. She is just the youngest daughter of the He family, and she was introduced to Zheng Yucheng just two months ago.
This girl has a domineering personality, but she fell in love with Zheng Yucheng at first sight, and she secretly looked at him with a red face throughout the banquet.
In the eyes of the older generation, this is undoubtedly a golden boy and a girl.
After that day, Miss He Wanxin "bumped into" Zheng Yucheng several times, and it was all self-evident tricks, women chasing men, interlayer yarns, everyone's eyes were watching, Zheng Yucheng didn't respond at all, but he didn't seem to be a gentleman enough.
At this moment, some good deeds posted a photo of Zheng Yucheng and Chen Wengang on the confession wall of the university, exposing the ambiguous relationship between the two.
On the selected photo, the two people snuggled together, their ears and temples grinded, and they were nailed to Zhang Caida's poster like a public execution, and the text layout of the poster was bright red and eye-catching, asking everyone to bet on how long the relationship โกโก between men and men can last, to see if it is really stronger than Jin.
The poster was quickly torn down by patrolling school security. Zheng Yucheng means to cover it up.
By this time, after all, only some students saw it, took photos and passed them on to each other, and it was not out of control.
However, He Wanxin didn't know how to learn about it again. She felt that she had been disgraced, and she was angry for a while, so she stopped Zheng Yucheng's car in public and accused Chen Wengang of being a "male junior" and a "fox spirit".
Chen Wengang found the downloaded video in the memory of his phone:
He Wanxin rushed out of the school gate, stopped Zheng Yucheng's car, and scolded him for being a scumbag who cheated on feelings, and there were more and more onlookers, blocking the road, but Zheng Yucheng got out of the car, Chen Wengang also got out of the car, and the two tried to persuade her to calm down.
But when she saw Chen Wengang, she was even more emotional, and she raised her hand to slap him, but was stopped by Zheng Yucheng.
There was a lot of discussion among the students, and many people were holding their mobile phones to record the video, so the video was probably more than just this one.
In Chen Wengang's memory, these are all dusty old things.
But now, He Wanxin's incident happened two days ago, and the video is exploding, making Zheng Yucheng's face ugly.
Chen Wengang is actually in a more awkward situation in the middle, and his mobile phone is stuffed with all kinds of messages from people he knows.
He hasn't replied to those messages yet, but the bigger problem is that He Wanxin's trouble has spread in the circle, and it is impossible for it to reach the ears of Master Zheng. Zheng Bingyi recently went fishing with friends, and when he arrived at home in the middle of the night last night, he must have heard about it.
"Are you really okay or are you fake?" So Lu Chenlong muttered, "I don't know you yet, don't report bad news." I've seen the video, that woman is so ugly, what kind of, make it up out of thin air! Yes, I know, you have to give you that Young Master Zheng to take care of the overall situation, and you can't scold her. What if it gets big now? I'm worried about what you're going to do in their house in the future? โ
A series of machine guns were like a series of machine guns, and after finishing speaking, I heard Chen Wengang laughing instead: "Eh! What's the matter with you? โ
"I laugh at you, the emperor is not in a hurry, and the eunuch is in a hurry." Chen Wengang said, "I'm not panicking, why are you panicking?" โ
"Neurotic, you're a eunuch!"
"Isn't the worst thing to be kicked out, so you can make room for me to live?"
"Okay, come on." Lu Chenlong saw that he was still in the mood to joke, and was a little relieved, "It's okay to stay, but let me tell you, it's easy to dodge open guns and difficult to defend against hidden arrows, we can't suffer in vain, at least we have to find out who the bastard who posted the poster is, have you heard?" โ
Chen Wengang promised: "Okay, I can't make it clear on the phone, I'll come out again when I'm free." โ
Lu Chenlong closed the line: "See you later." โ
Chen Wengang restrained his smile.
He sat on the edge of the bed and watched the tourbillon timer fascinated.
Others think that the Zheng family is wealthy, and even envy him for his luck, but he is a bigger backer when he is young.
But how can this wealth be so enjoyable? From childhood to adulthood, other children are not sensible, he must be sensible, and other children are not allowed to let him be tolerated, Chen Wengang used to care very much about what others said about him, until now when he looks back, he finds that many things are indifferent.
Lu Chenlong asked him to find a villain, of course he knew who it was, but he couldn't lift his heart at all.
I felt that it didn't matter.
It doesn't matter if you are posted a few posters with broken sleeves and scolded by someone pointing at your nose, it doesn't matter.
And these are pediatric compared to He Wanxin's real deeds. He Wanxin is not a bully flower, she is a colorful snake. What she really did was terrifying, otherwise how did a prisoner serving a prison sentence get sulfuric acid?
In his previous life, Chen Wengang needed her to give him an explanation, and he also thought that he couldn't do it, but then Huo Niansheng did it for him first.
It's not that he doesn't want to do it himself, there are some specific reasons, the main one is that he was not in good spirits at that time.
After being released from prison, Chen Wengang suffered from severe depression and anxiety, accompanied by severe panic disorder. Huo Niansheng didn't want to stimulate him, and Chen Wengang himself escaped from reality, and spent several years just to cure these problems.
Later, when he slowly walked out, Jincheng didn't have a surname Wanxin.
Chen Wengang knew that Huo Niansheng and the brother and sister of the He family had a discord with each other, and where there was a conflict of interest, there would be fights.
He wouldn't have felt sentimentally before, Huo Niansheng was just for himself. But later, my heart was not so sure.
Maybe it's a little bit for him.
When he reacted, Chen Wengang habitually pressed the familiar number on his mobile phone.
He lost but didn't dial, just looked, and then deleted another number by number.
After Huo Nian's death, Chen Wengang has been paying for this number. Huo Niansheng's original mobile phone disappeared when the ship was wrecked, and Chen Wengang reissued a card for him and inserted the new card into a backup machine.
He occasionally used it to call himself in the dead of night.
The caller ID on the screen popped up the words "Huo Niansheng", as if there was really someone waiting for him to pick it up.
As for now, Chen Wengang suddenly felt scared.
He suspected that it was just a more realistic and deceptive dream.
Admit it, how can there be such a good thing - press it, and you can listen to Huo Niansheng himself over there pick it up and ask which one?
Chen Wengang stood up, sat down again, suddenly stood up again, walked around the room, and stopped next to his desk.
Dream is dream, he held his phone and typed the number again and saved it in the address book.
As long as you don't wake up, dreams are also reality.
It seemed that only now did he dare to take a careful look at the idea that was about to come out.
Really, at this time, Huo Niansheng should still be alive.
Just under this sky, somewhere on the ground, I don't know what was being done, but he was alive, breathing, and warm.
From just now to now, Chen Wengang has always subconsciously avoided this issue. There are many people and things that keep popping up in his mind, but he can't think about this rashly, otherwise just one thought can overwhelm his heart again.
He wanted to verify this fact immediately, but then stopped, and now the number could not be dialed.
For the current Huo Niansheng, what is Chen Wengang?
I've seen it, but I'm not familiar with it. It's just one of the public faces.
Chen Wengang recalled that before he was twenty years old, he actually only met Huo Niansheng sporadically at the dinner party.
When I heard someone mention that he was a playboy, my first impression was that he had a very unforgiving mouth, and that's it. Shake hands, nod your head, and say goodbye and call out your name, all of them are considered to be someone in his Huo Niansheng's eyes.
When they don't meet, maybe he can't even remember what Chen Wengang looks like.
Chen Wengang's mind cooled down, he was not disappointed.
If you don't know, you can get to know it again, in fact, as long as people are safe, everything is a trivial matter.
Back then, Huo Niansheng left a letter to let him live well, but it turned out to be a spell, and Chen Wengang was trapped for ten years and could not be freed. Now he seemed to finally understand that feeling. It turned out that when he thought of Huo Niansheng, it was as simple as that.
Just live. It's better than anything else to be able to live well.
