Chapter 289 The old man is nowhere to be found
Back home, Ying Duo was handling official business. Tang Guanqi opened the study door, took a look and left quietly.
Since the Chinese New Year, Ying Duo has finally become honest. As she expected, she didn't even ask for it for more than half a month.
Tang Guanqi was finally free and had time to do his own things.
At night, Ying Duo just chatted with her for a while and then hugged her to sleep.
But by three o'clock in the morning.
Tang Guanqi suddenly felt something moving around him while he was sleeping.
She half-opened her eyes and looked at Ying Duo through the dim light, and found that Ying Duo had sat up, pressing her heart hard with the palm of her hand.
Tang Guan turned on the chess light: "What's wrong?"
Ying Duo's voice was hoarse: "My heart feels a little uncomfortable."
But his eyebrows were condensed together, his eyes were lowered, and he felt unusual pain. Tang Guanqi immediately got up and pressed the housekeeper's bell.
The doctor came to see her and found that it was not a big problem. It might have been caused by too much stress. He prescribed medicine, but after taking the medicine, Ying Duo still felt that his heart palpitations were still there, and he felt like he was in a trance.
It took half an hour for the pain to completely dissipate.
Tang Guanqi thought he was too tired, but the next morning, Ying Duo received the news.
The assistant said that Yuan Zhen passed away at 3 o'clock last night. He had advanced pancreatic cancer. This disease was basically late when it was discovered. He suffered until the end, and even after half an hour of resuscitation, he still passed away.
Now in the crematorium.
Counting the time, it was the half hour when Ying Duo suffered severe heart pain last night.
When Tang Guanqi appeared in the study, Ying Duo was sitting alone on the balcony, feeling lost.
The sun was setting and he didn't go out all day.
The ink eyes watched the sunset covering the horizon little by little. Dark blue, orange, yellow, light blue and pure white were transitioning layer by layer. The colors spreading towards the horizon were getting darker and darker, and everything had a sense of weightlessness that was about to disappear.
I seem to be able to see that when I was fifteen or sixteen years old, when I was not familiar with Yuan Zhen, I heard others discuss that Yuan Zhen, a transfer student who got all A+ exams, was not from mainland China, and his Cantonese sometimes did not have a Hong Kong accent.
Yuan Zhen just happened to hear it and said to them with a frank smile, "Yes, you can get it if you can, but if you can't, you can realize your ideal, if not, you can return to your hometown."
At that time, Ying Duo noticed Yuan Zhen for the first time. He was dark and thin, but energetic and had bright eyes.
Yuan Zhen played a football match with him and found a wound on his arm caused by the Ying family's fighting training. Even though he was not familiar with it, he protected him on the court and prevented others from touching his injury.
When he asked, Yuan Zhen just smiled and said, "I'm not very good at kicking, so I followed you and wanted to learn your tricks."
Yuan Zhen is obviously good at kicking.
Ying Duo's hand stopped on the sports wristband, which was used to cover his bruises.
Everyone knows that he is Ying Chengfeng's son. Ying Chengfeng's son has injuries all over his body, so there are easily many rumors.
For example, he is not favored, is beaten every day at home, or is bullied by his brothers. Topics such as this will surround him and discuss his family.
This man saw it, but he only said that it was his problem and did not point out that he always had inexplicable bruises on his body.
At that age, Ying Duo looked like he was well-educated, a child of an aristocratic family, and looked handsome and tall. Even if he didn't have a logo on him, you would think he was expensive, giving the impression that he was neither far nor close.
Because he is a gentleman, he will not refuse girls who ask for his help, and he will consider others appropriately, but he just can't get close to him.
In fact, he doesn't often speak too much because he has a lot of conflicts inside and cannot reconcile himself.
He was born into a high family but had a low status at home. Everyone flattered him outside, but he was often ignored at home. His father never cared about his academic and adolescent thoughts.
His classmates even teased him by calling him Young Master Ying, knowing that he wouldn't be angry, but they didn't dare to offend him any more. They only dared to go to this extent. They always joked about their feelings of envy and admiration, but no one really dared to get close to him and have sex with him. BFF.
But not Yuan Zhen. His family background is actually very average. He can go to the same school as Ying Duo because his family sold their house and spent all their efforts to send him here. He usually does not live in Hong Kong City, but in the Shenzhen City next door. In order to save rent, he goes to school every day. It's a long time.
When others make fun of him, he will respond generously with a smile, and his words will make anyone feel like they are in the spring breeze.
At Ying Duo's age, I met a friend who was so mature and comfortable. He was completely self-contained and had no trouble. Talking to him, even for just a few minutes, made me feel at ease.
He unconsciously approached this mature friend and tried to choose this friend to participate in activities together, and Yuan Zhen agreed. He tried several times, but Yuan Zhen agreed every time.
Once, Yuan Zhen took the initiative to invite him to form a band before a special sports meeting. It was just the two of them. Although Ying Duo didn't say it, he was very happy.
There was an accident during that performance. The speaker kept playing the same piece of jazz, and the accompaniment could not be switched. Yuan Zhen danced samba to save the situation, but he was dancing the female role. The people in the audience thought it was funny, but it didn't matter. After all, he was right. Yuan Zhen is not interested.
But Yuan Zhen leaned back and raised his legs, suddenly fell into the arms of Ying Duo, who was sitting in front of the piano, and called into the microphone affectionately: "Duo Duo."
This is just for stage effect.
But Ying Duo was as stiff as a dead duck, shocked and restrained. He frowned in the eyes of everyone, and stiffly stretched out a hand to catch him as the male protagonist of the samba dance.
Yuan Zhen is not the one that everyone cares about, but Ying Duo is, from his family background to his appearance.
The students in the audience laughed like crazy and took out their mobile phones to take pictures.
From that day on, some classmates began to call him Duoduo, which was almost teasing. Everyone seemed to start treating him as a normal male classmate instead of Ying Chengfeng's son.
Yuan Zhen's self-consistency is unique. He never goes into a dead end or is too outstanding, but in reality he is a very competitive person.
When Ying Duo stayed by his side, he felt as if he could feel the singing of birds and the fragrance of flowers again, and would not think about those embarrassing things.
Later, he had more and more friends. Everyone no longer thought that he was Ying Chengfeng's son, and they all called him Duo Duo. They also found that Ying Duo was actually very easy to get along with. He would tease Hong Wen when he was anxious, and he would arrange things to participate in activities like a personal computer. .
But he never thought that Yuan Zhen would betray him. They went to middle school together and went to the same university, and were inseparable.
And Yuan Zhen had betrayed him in college, but he still became a good friend so naturally, without revealing any secrets at all.
But he could do something to kill him.
Sure enough, his city is indeed far higher than him, even since he was a boy. Ying Duo sat quietly for many nights, unable to sleep, but he just acted calmly and personally set up a trap for Yuan Zhen despite the internal and external troubles.
His resources and status are far higher than Yuan Zhen. In fact, it is a dimensionality reduction attack to deal with Yuan Zhen, but Yuan Zhen has climbed to a high position and does not take him seriously.
There is a saying in the world that approaching is disrespectful.
If the distance is too close, it will make people think that this person is nothing more than that.
Yuan Zhen knew that he was not favored at home, and he also knew that he would have the troubles of ordinary people. He had never shown a sense of superiority to others, so he naturally thought that he did not have the skills to kill with one blow.
The same may be true for Tiao Yinghui.
But at this moment, Ying Duo only recalled the image of the dark-skinned boy grinning with white teeth and saying to others with a smile, "You can get it, but you can't turn Shunde." The sun was shining brightly outside the window.
If he went back to that time, would he still say the first words to him, and would he still choose to be friends with Yuan Zhen?
But there is no going back.
Tang Guanqi walked to Ying Duo, and the sound of high heels fell into his ears. Ying Duo did not look back, but pulled out of his memories.
After a long time, he said in a low voice:
"Yuan Zhen is dead."

Tang Guanqi walked up to him, squatted down gently and put his hands on his knees, raised his head and listened to him carefully.
Ying Duo couldn't tell what he was feeling in his heart, whether he was melancholy, couldn't bear it, or felt that the world was confusing. He seemed to be very calm and only stated the facts:
"...I heard someone said that he had been ill since New Year's Eve. He had been living on his last breath and passed away today."
Tang Guanqi didn't know how to comfort him.
Does he feel sorry for Yuan Zhen, hate Yuan Zhen, or just hate that Yuan Zhen's friendship with him is all fake? He is heartbroken.
Tang Guanqi didn't know.
Ying Duo's expression was still calm but a little more low-key: "Why are you coming back so late today?"
Tang Guanqi gestured: "I usually come back at this time."
Ying Duo smiled warmly to himself: "But it feels like I have been waiting for you for a long time."
Tang Guanqi understood. He really wanted someone to accompany him.
She stood up and put her thin arms around his head, hugging him so that he could rest in her arms.
Her arms were warm and soft, exuding a soothing fragrance.
Ying Duo slowly relaxed, and the warm feeling in his eyes and the feeling of loss disappeared only after she appeared, and he felt like he was back to reality down to earth.
He still has Guanqi, and Guanqi will not leave.
He didn't say anything, but Tang Guanqi just kept holding him, allowing him to lean on him and feel his presence.
The setting sun sinks in the deep blue like water and gradually disappears. The setting sun melts gold and the dusk clouds merge. Where are the old people?
No matter how much hatred there was, it all disappeared the moment Yuan Zhen died
*
And the other side.
Since the last time he kidnapped Tang Guanqi, Ying Duo has been stuck in Ying Hui's neck. Since then, all of Ying Hui's projects have not gone smoothly. Ying Hui originally wanted to get a company key from Yuan Zhen and usher in a turn of events, but he has not yet If you get it, Yuan Zhen will die.
During the period of medical parole, from New Year's Eve to the end of the year, not only did he not dig out the key from Yuan Zhen's mouth, but he also sacrificed the entire Spring Festival to wait for someone to die. This year is so unlucky that people have no place to vent their anger.
So Tang Guanqi had just comforted Ying Duo, who hadn't eaten all day, to have something to eat when he heard the housekeeper say that Ying Hui had come to order Mao.
He hadn't come for more than half a month, and Tang Guanqi thought he wouldn't come.
Every time she comes, she just gets angry and leaves.
The housekeeper added: "The second wife is here too and is waiting for you in the outdoor living room."
Looking at Tang Guanqi's face, he didn't know whether the second wife who came here for the first time was close or distant.
Tang Guanqi just nodded and went downstairs.
Qin Hui and Ying Hui were sitting on the sofa in the glass living room. One immediately stood up to greet her when he saw her coming, and the other was still flipping through the magazines on the sofa with his feet up.
Tang Guanqi smiled slightly and typed to Qin Hui: "You are here."
Qin Hui had mixed feelings in her heart. When she saw Tang Guanqi, she felt like she was seeing one of her own. She also knew that her sister-in-law was probably the only person in the Ying family that she could trust.
She smiled, feeling warm in her heart: "Yes, I haven't seen my sister-in-law this week, so I thought I would come and have a look."
Ying Hui raised his eyes and glanced at Tang Guanqi, and said nonchalantly: "You feel good, I feel sorry for Yuan Zhen. If you hadn't come up with the idea to defraud him of all the shares he transferred to his younger brother, he most likely wouldn't have been so angry to death so quickly. Right? ”
Qin Hui didn't know why.
What's round and needle like.
But Tang Guanqi sat down calmly, as if she didn't hear Ying Hui mocking her. After a moment, she replied:
"It has been two months since the shares were transferred. Yuan Zhen's attitude was not that he was too surprised. He had even concluded that it was not safe to hand it over to his brother. He comforted his brother by saying that he only wanted him to get a compensation from Yingduo by handing it over to him. , the cause of death is cancer, what does it have to do with me? ”
The tablets on both sides were connected, and Qin Hui could also see what Tang Guanqi was typing.
Ying Hui was blocked back and just laughed sarcastically. This mute really didn't speak but had sharp teeth. He said gloomily:
"You can say anything. It's a pity that you can't open your mouth. Otherwise, I would want to cut off your mute tongue and throw it out to feed the dogs."
Before Tang Guanqi returned it, Qin Hui suddenly sarcastically retorted: "You are the only one with a mouth? Why are you proud?"
Unexpectedly, Ying Hui was surprised to see Qin Hui, who had previously been most disgusted with Tang Guanqi and was very kind to him.
Taking the wrong medicine?
Qin Hui's face was cold, as if he wanted to overturn the table, but he refused to let anyone talk about Tang Guanqi being mute to his face:
"Mute, dumb, dumb, you say these words too much and eat enough. I don't think you are mute. Why do you spit out feces when you open your mouth?"
