When Li Huaicheng rushed to the ward, Cheng Xin was chatting with Jiang Siyuan. He was leaning on the hospital bed with a pillow behind him, his expression was a little tired and cautious, and his eyes lit up when he saw Li Huaicheng who opened the door.

"Huaicheng." Cheng Xin turned his head with difficulty, almost relieved and smiled at Li Huaicheng: "You are here."

Li Huaicheng nodded slightly, and asked with concern: "How is it? Are you all right?"

"It was just a concussion and a broken hand." Cheng Xin Junxiu had a shy smile on his face, "I want to thank your friend who happened to pass by and rescued me. If it was later, I might not be so lucky."

Hearing this, Li Huaicheng looked at Jiang Siyuan in surprise, seeing him lowered his eyes and then looked away, he directly asked the question that had been circling in his mind all the way: "Why did you come out today, did you receive any calls?"

Cheng Xin was taken aback, and hesitated, "How do you know?"

"That Cheng Hao from last time?" Li Huaicheng's expression was slightly cold.

Cheng Xin pursed his lips and whispered, "It was just an accident."

Li Huaicheng didn't say any more, he didn't know why Cheng Xin believed that Cheng Hao would not harm him, but he couldn't just put the charge on Cheng Hao because he had no evidence.

"Take a good rest." Li Huaicheng saw Cheng Xin's unconcealable fatigue, and said, "Let's leave first, and see you tomorrow."

Coming out of the ward, Jiang Siyuan asked: "Do you think Cheng Hao did it?"

"I'm not sure either." Li Huaicheng shook his head, "But he is the most suspected."

"But Cheng Hao has no reason to kill Cheng Xin. As far as I know, although Cheng Hao and Cheng Xin are half-brothers, they had a good relationship when they were young. After growing up, although they gradually became estranged due to some reasons, they are not so dead. And when Cheng Xin was young, Cheng Hao saved his life."

Li Huaicheng was taken aback, then turned to look at Jiang Siyuan and said, "Are you investigating him?"

"Cheng Xin is your friend, not mine." Jiang Siyuan's expression was very righteous, "You can trust him, but it's about your safety, so I have to be careful."

Li Huaicheng didn't think that Jiang Siyuan did anything wrong, but he was surprised that he was able to find out the childhood grievances between Cheng Hao and Cheng Xin in such a short period of time. He asked: "But what did Cheng Hao do to Cheng Xin last time?" You should have seen it too, but it doesn't look like a good brother."

"As I said before, Cheng Hao has no reason to kill Cheng Xin, and the two of them have no conflict of interest." Jiang Siyuan said: "Cheng Xin has long signed a document to renounce all inheritance, and everything in the Cheng family belongs to Cheng Hao." Yes, so he won't kill Cheng Xin because of his own interests, if it's other things, it's impossible, Cheng Hao and Cheng Xin's status are very different now, if Cheng Hao really wants to kill him, Cheng Xin won't be able to gain a foothold in Qingshi at all."

Li Huaicheng was thoughtful when he heard the words, he followed Jiang Siyuan's words and thought carefully, if Cheng Hao didn't want to kill Cheng Xin, then who wanted to kill him?And why?

Thinking of this, Li Huaicheng's eyelashes trembled, and a cold light flickered in his eyes: "You mean, Cheng Xin may have suffered for me in this car accident."

Seeing that Li Huaicheng understood what he meant, Jiang Siyuan nodded slightly, his eyes gloomy.

In the shooting range.

"Not bad." Lei Lei clapped his hands and said with a smile, "I heard that you have only practiced for more than a month. I didn't expect that the hit rate is already so high."

Li Huaicheng wiped the sweat from his forehead, smiled slightly and said, "Thanks to the teacher who taught me."

After Cheng Xin's car accident, Li Huaicheng added one more thing every week besides classes and practice—practicing guns.

This was a suggestion put forward by Jiang Siyuan, and Li Huaicheng agreed without much consideration. It is always right to be prepared.

Lei Lei smiled when he heard this, and rolled his eyes: "Can you keep a low profile?"

Thinking of Jiang Siyuan and Li Huaicheng telling him that they were together, seeing his cautious and apprehensive expression, Lei Lei felt very complicated in his heart, he was not optimistic about the relationship between the two of them.

However, it is already very difficult for two people to break through the world and choose to be together. As the only person who knows, he is unwilling to be the one who throws cold water, and even hopes that they can overcome all difficulties and truly go on, so he can only smile and bless them.

But after this period of time, Lei Lei realized that the cautiousness and anxiety he thought at the beginning were just his own subjective speculations. In his mind, the young couple who were at a loss for love should not be too arrogant at all. The secretive look when he discovered it, even blinded him when getting along.

Just like now, even if Jiang Siyuan is not here, Li Huaicheng can show off invisibly.

"Let's have a game." When Lei Lei saw the pistol in Li Huaicheng's hand, he decided to use his strength to teach him how to behave, and said, "Did you use the pistol in the first place?"

"Rifle." Li Huaicheng drank his saliva and said lightly: "After three days, I changed to a pistol."

"That's right. I heard from Dylan that your psychological quality is very good and your accuracy is very high. Let's have a competition? The loser invites you to dinner today."

Li Huai gave him a clear look. Lei Lei learned to shoot when he was studying abroad in the United States in high school. He has not stopped for four years in college and the past few years after graduation. .

"Come on." Li Huaicheng lowered the water, even so he was not afraid.

As expected, Li Huaicheng failed miserably.

Lei Lei smiled slyly, and said: "Master He is here today in Jushifang. I just reserved a seat. You treat me."

Jiang Siyuan happened to come back after finishing his work. Hearing this sentence, he couldn't help saying: "Isn't this the punishment for you losing in our match last time?"

Lei Lei said with an innocent face: "Now the punishment is on Huai Cheng."

Jiang Siyuan thought for a while, walked up to Li Huaicheng and hugged him like a teddy bear, leaned his head on his shoulder, looked at Lei Lei with a smile and said: "Then let's treat you together, just be ours." We haven't invited you to dinner yet."

The smug expression on Lei Lei's face froze, and he turned his head and walked out: "I shouldn't have come to you."

Halfway through, he turned his head and saw Li Huaicheng and Jiang Siyuan who were standing there, and said angrily, "You didn't pull me! You didn't treat me sincerely at all!"

Li Huaicheng rubbed Jiang Siyuan's head resting on his shoulder, and said lightly: "Go ahead if you have the ability."

Lei Lei: "...If it weren't for the fact that Master He from Jushi Fang only came out of the mountain three times a year, I would write my name upside down if I didn't leave today."

Jiang Siyuan: "Oh."

"Let's go, Lei Lei." Li Huaicheng and Jiang Siyuan held hands and said as they passed Lei Lei.

Lei Lei shuddered when he heard the sound of "Leilei", swallowed and said, "I've got goosebumps, it's so disgusting."

Jiang Siyuan smiled slightly: "Leilei still not leaving?"

"These two are really a perfect match." Lei Lei rubbed the goosebumps on his hands, muttered and followed the footsteps of the two.

Jushifang is very famous in Qingshi circles, and its chef, Master He, who has long since retired, is his signature. Master He will go out of the mountain three times a year. location.

When Li Huaicheng and the others arrived, it happened to be in time for the meal. This is another rule of the Gathering Square. The chef will make the dishes at the time confirmed when making the appointment, because each dish has the best time to eat, when the food is on the table If the diners have not arrived at the time, it will be regarded as giving up the reservation.

Someone ushered them into the private room that had already been reserved, and when the three sat down, the first course and appetizers were also served.

Li Huaicheng was engaged in the catering industry in his previous life. When he saw the business model of Jushifang, he still wondered if it would be too much to drive away customers, but when the first chopsticks dish was eaten in the entrance, he knew that there is such a kind of cooking. Even if the requirements for diners are harsh, some people will pay.

A meal can be said to be full of wine and food, until the last dish was removed, Li Huaicheng was still unsatisfied, and looking at the expressions of Jiang Siyuan and Lei Lei, it was obviously the same.

"It's really..." Lei Lei clicked his tongue twice: "An artist, cooking to this level is definitely called art."

Jiang Siyuan also agrees very much. After he came to Huaguo, apart from going out to eat with Li Huaicheng and the others, he still ate Italian food most of the time. It's hard to change. It wasn't until today that he ate the dishes made by Chef He in Jushifang that he really felt the amazingness of Huaguo cuisine.

Lei Lei and Jiang Siyuan had a rare conversation, and they were full of praise for today's delicacies. Li Huaicheng sat aside and listened quietly, with a smile on his face.

The sudden ringtone of the mobile phone broke the leisurely atmosphere. Seeing the two people looking over, Li Huaicheng picked up the mobile phone, nodded to the two and left the box.

The entire gathering place is an antique-style building, Li Huaicheng walked along the quiet corridor, answered the phone and said, "What's wrong?"

Zhou Ziyou spoke quickly: "Yang Meng is fighting with someone and he is in the bureau now, but I have some things that I can't get over. Can you go and pick him up?"

Li Huaicheng was taken aback, Yang Mengmeng fighting?The person who would cry even watching a horror movie is actually fighting with others?

"what happened?"

"I don't know, so I received a call from him asking me to release him on bail, but now my father locks me up at home and I can't go out at all. Do you have time?"

"I have, just tell me the address, and I'll go there right away."

Li Huaicheng hung up the phone, just about to go back when he heard a familiar voice not far away, turned his head and saw a familiar figure.

Gao Sijin stood with an old man in a Chinese tunic suit, with his head slightly lowered. It can be seen from his posture that he respects the old man in front of him very much.

Just as Li Huaicheng wanted to go over to say hello, he heard the old man sigh and said in a slightly melancholy voice, "Are you really deciding not to get married and have children, and to leave the family business to your nephew?"

"Yes." Gao Sijin answered without hesitation, but there was a hint of complexity in his tone.

The old man shook his head: "Why are you doing this..."

Gao Sijin lowered his head and said nothing, the old man sighed: "Ten years have passed in a flash... It seems like there is no shadow, if you are not so different from you now, I would doubt that I am only over [-] .”

"The master is in good spirits and looks no different from 60 years old."

"You kid." The old man laughed, "You still don't know how to praise others as before, and you are two extremes with that kid Qizi. One has a cold face every day and the other smiles all the time, so we I don't even like you being together..."

The old man's voice gradually lowered, and his tone also lowered: "Ten years have passed, and Qi Zi has been gone for ten years. I thought you could let it go, but seeing that you are becoming more and more like him, I'm afraid you won't be able to let it go for the rest of your life."

Gao Sijin's voice was flat: "We have known each other since we were 15 years old, and we were together when we were 17 years old. Although we didn't get to grow old together like we thought at first, I am already very grateful to have ten years. I will spend the rest of the time Do what you promised him."

"What about when everything is done?" The old man raised his head, looked at Gao Sijin and said, "I heard that you are now training your little nephew, what are you going to do when he can inherit the company?"

Gao Sijin was silent for a long time without answering.

The old man patted Gao Sijin on the shoulder, and said earnestly: "Let the past go, even if you miss someone who is no longer there, don't use this method. If he knows, he will definitely feel distressed. You still have a long time. Qi Zi must also hope that you will look forward."

Seeing that Gao Sijin still remained silent, the old man lowered his head and sighed, "I am also an old bone. I don't know how many more sunrises I can see. Once you and Qi Zi said that when I am 80 years old, Just accompany me to Changshan to watch the sunrise, just such a disciple, I have to fulfill his wish for him, what do you think?"

"I'll make it happen for him too." Gao Sijin replied with lowered eyes.

"That's good, that's good." The old man seemed relieved, "I remember that I saw that little thing when your little nephew was born. At that time, I happened to have a physical examination at Yishi. When your sister entered the hospital, I waited with Li Zhiming for a long time, but as soon as the child came out, he went to see his wife, and I was the first to hug him."

Gao Sijin was a little surprised when he heard this, and Li Huaicheng who was standing not far away was also taken aback.

"I've heard about the Li family." The old man shook his head and sighed, "It's a trick of good fortune. Fortunately, I found it back. How is that child?"

Gao Sijin thought for a while, and said in a gentle voice, "Very good, I like to laugh very much and is very gentle to everyone, but sometimes I am too gentle and always ignore myself."

The old man was silent for a moment, and said: "It sounds quite similar to Qi Zi, no wonder you like him, let me take a look at that child when you have time, I am a little ashamed to say it, if I didn't rush to leave at that time, perhaps It won't happen that he was dropped."

"It's none of your business." Gao Sijin shook his head, "Someone deliberately did this, and the Gao family and Li family are investigating."

The old man nodded, "Okay, you can take me back. The old woman misses you very much, and you don't see you come to see us. You can spend time with him later. After Qizi left, she..."

Gao Sijin helped the old man walk away, Li Huaicheng stood there for a long time and couldn't react.

"Sir." A waiter dressed in a simplified version of ancient costume came over and interrupted Li Huaicheng's thoughts: "Are you looking for someone? Are you a guest or do you have an appointment with Mr. He? Over there is a private person from the Gathering Square." area, if there is an appointment, I can take you there."

"No." Li Huaicheng came back to his senses, and said with a smile: "I just answered the phone and came here. I seem to be a little lost. Can you take me back to the private seat?"

The waiter nodded: "Of course, please follow me."

Li Huaicheng followed the waiter, and all kinds of information rolled in his mind along the way. The conversation between Gao Sijin and the old man just now contained too much information, which made him unable to sort it out for a while, but he got the most important piece of information in it—— —The old man had seen him before he was not swapped.

So is it possible that what happened in the old man's memory will help his investigation?

"It's here." The waiter bowed and said, "Do you need me to open the door for you?"

"No need." Li Huaicheng nodded politely, "I'll just go in by myself, thank you."

As soon as the door was pushed open, Lei Lei was half leaning on the chair, and said with a lazy expression: "Why have you been on the phone for so long? We thought you were lost."

Li Huaicheng had just sat down, and only remembered Yang Meng's matter when he heard Lei Lei's question, got up and took the coat from the stool, and said to Jiang Siyuan: "Yang Meng has an accident, and now he is at the police station. Ziyou is locked up at home and can't Come out, we have to go there."

Jiang Siyuan was surprised: "Why did he go to the police station?"

"I heard it was a fight." Li Huaicheng said, "I don't know very well, let's go there first."

"Then you go first." Lei Lei said, "I'll go by myself later."

Li Huaicheng nodded, and left the gathering room with Jiang Siyuan.

By the time the two arrived at the police station, it had been more than an hour since Zhou Ziyou called.

Yang Mengmeng sat on a stool with his head drooping at this moment, his eyes lit up when he saw them coming over, and then he blushed with shame: "I'm sorry to trouble you."

Li Huaicheng shook his head, "It's nothing, what's going on?"

Yang Mengmeng lowered his head and didn't speak. After a while, he said in a very small voice: "It's because they deserve to be beaten, so I beat them."

Li Huaicheng paused when he heard the words, looked at Yang Mengmeng's drooping head and sighed, knowing that he couldn't ask anything from him, so he left Jiang Siyuan to accompany Yang Mengmeng, and went to find out the situation by himself.

"Your friend heard those two people speak ill of his friend, and then got angry for a while and moved his hands. In fact, neither of the two parties was injured. Originally, this matter could be settled after mediation, but because your friend moved first hand, and if you don’t let go, you must pay [-] yuan, so..."

The police explained the situation to Li Huaicheng while flipping through the records. Li Huaicheng readily agreed to the compensation. The policeman sighed and said, "Actually, it's not reasonable to pay so much money, and it's not without fault there, but it seems that you still College students, you probably don’t want to waste time on this matter. You can understand that boys are young and energetic, but your friend has a bit of a temper. You have to remind him that there is nothing wrong with those two boys being generous. Big students are different."

Li Huaicheng heard the policeman's kind reminder, quickly thanked him, and asked, "Can I go and see those two people?"

"Yes." The policeman smiled, "They are over there. In fact, the compensation is too high. You can discuss it with them."

Li Huaicheng nodded, and followed the guidance to the two young men sitting at the other end. Li Huaicheng frowned when he saw them. He had seen these two people before, and he had the impression that they were people who often followed Jiang Huaikang.

Those two people were also taken aback when they saw him, they obviously recognized him, they looked at each other and said: "Li, Li Ershao, why are you here?"

Seeing their expressions, Li Huaicheng raised his eyebrows slightly, but with a smile on his face: "I heard that someone said bad things about me, of course I want to see who it is?"

The faces of the two people froze when they heard the words, and one of them quickly explained: "It's not that we deliberately said bad things about you, it was Jiang Huaikang who asked us to go to your school to say these things, and we just listened to him!"

After Li Huaicheng saw them, he guessed the reason for Yang Meng's fight, so he just set up his words casually, and didn't think that it would take only one sentence, and he would confess his old background, who are the people who hang out with Jiang Huaikang every day ...

The man with red hair said: "And we didn't intend to listen to Jiang Huaikang at all, so we didn't go to your college to speak ill of you, but went to the Physical Education College. We thought that the people there didn't know you, so it was useless to say it." , I didn’t expect to meet your friend!”

Li Huaicheng pursed his lips, it seems that these two people are not stupid, but much smarter than he imagined.

"What did Jiang Huaikang want you to say about me?" Li Huaicheng asked with interest.

"This..." The red-haired and blond-haired glanced at each other and fell silent.

Li Huaicheng lowered his eyes and said, "I've already agreed to pay the compensation. At first I thought it was my friend's fault. I thought it would be a harmonious solution, but I didn't expect there was another reason. Why don't we settle the score after you go out?"

"He, he told us to say..." The yellow hair glanced at him, and said cautiously: "You are gay...sexual."

Li Huaicheng's eyes flickered slightly, but the smile on his face remained unchanged, and he asked, "So you just said that?"

"No!" The red-haired man said wrongly: "We just hid behind that to discuss it. Homosexuality is too fake, so we were thinking of another way of saying it. When we were discussing it, your friend overheard it. And got beaten."

Li Huaicheng: ...

Li Huaicheng was silent for a while, and asked, "Why did Jiang Huaikang ask you to say that? Do you know?"

"I don't know." The yellow hair shook his head, "He only said that we should go to your school to talk about it, and it seems that he plans to send someone to the company where you practiced to talk about it, but there is no time yet."

"Company?" Li Huaicheng frowned, seeing the uneasy expressions of the two, he suddenly smiled and said, "I remember seeing you guys when I was a sophomore in high school, and I stabbed my friend and me with a knife in my hand. You guys."

The yellow hair and the red hair looked at each other. I didn't expect Li Huaicheng to have such a good memory, and he still remembered them after so long, but it was obviously not a good thing for him to mention this matter at this moment.

"You used knives to trouble my friends when I was a sophomore in high school, and when I was in my junior year, you not only made rumors about me, but also troubled another friend of mine." Li Huaicheng smiled lightly, "And after you troubled me, you still If you want me to lose money, how about we settle the account together now?"

The two were taken aback when they heard the words, and quickly said: "We don't want the money anymore, we promise to reconcile!"

"It's late." Li Huaicheng smiled, "But if you do something for me, I can pretend that these two things never happened."
