What about the revenge line? [Rebirth]

in the conference room.

Gao Sijin's gentle and calm voice surrounded his ears, but Li Huaicheng didn't listen to a word. He kept playing what Cheng Hao said in his mind.

——There were absolutely no less than two people involved in that incident at that time.

What exactly did the Li family do to make those people drop him by all means, but if they are the enemies of the Li family, why should they only target themselves when they were just born?Instead of targeting the entire Li family.

If there is anything in him worthy of their careful attention, it is probably the status of the heir of the Gao family, but Gao Sijin was only 17 years old at the time, even if he was already with the lover who is now tabooed by everyone at that time , It wouldn't have deprived him of his heir status in the first place.

In fact, why he decided to leave the Gaoyuan Group to him to inherit, Li Huaicheng is still puzzled.

He believed that it was impossible for the Li family and the Gao family to recklessly put the burden of heir on him before he was born. Even if they really put this identity on him for some reason, they should not wantonly publicity.

How those people knew how to plan and what their purpose was, he had no idea at all, because even if the Gaoyuan Group would not be inherited by him, it would not be the turn of anyone other than the Gao family to inherit it.

Moreover, in his last life, he had never heard of any rumors that Jiang Huaikang would inherit the Gaoyuan Group. Even when he was 27 years old, Jiang Huaikang had not worked as an intern at the Gaoyuan Group, but had a idle job in the Li family's Shiyun Group , Eating, drinking and having fun every day.

What's more, until the day of his death, the Gaoyuan Group was still under the control of Gao Sijin. Even though he was not married, he had never heard the rumor that he would hand over the Gaoyuan Group to outsiders.

Li Huaicheng felt that his head was a mess, all the clues and known situations were scattered at different points, as long as these points were connected, he might get the answer he wanted very much, but he had no idea how to connect the lines. thoughts.

"Dismiss."

Gao Sijin's voice interrupted Li Huaicheng's thoughts, he got up with the crowd, and just about to go out, he heard Gao Sijin say: "Li Huaicheng, you stay."

Li Huaicheng glanced at Gao Sijin's expressionless face, just stood up and sat down again.

After all the people in the conference room had left, Assistant Zhao also went out and closed the door, before Gao Sijin said, "What's bothering you lately?"

Li Huaicheng was slightly stunned, subconsciously said: "No."

After finishing speaking, he felt that his answer was too fast and perfunctory, Li Huaicheng added: "Uncle, why did Mr. Gao ask such a question?"

Hearing Li Huaicheng call him the wrong name, Gao Sijin smiled a little, and his voice was softer: "Recently you have been distracted a lot, is it because you are tired from the investigation?"

Li Huaicheng was not surprised that Gao Sijin knew that he was investigating this matter alone, and nodded when he heard the words: "That's right. But now there are many clues, and the progress is not small."

Gao Sijin nodded, "Uncle He is full of praise for your cooking, and the two old people like you very much."

Thinking of Mr. He who looked serious but actually kind, Li Huaicheng smiled and said: "I also think Grandpa He and Grandma He are very kind."

Gao Sijin smiled and said, "If you have time, you can visit them more."

"Okay." Li Huaicheng agreed casually, and then asked, "Uncle, do you often visit Grandpa He?"

Gao Sijin nodded: "Uncle He and Aunt He don't often stay in China. They just moved back this year. Their children are all living abroad, so I will visit them when I have time."

Li Huaicheng was slightly surprised when he heard the words. He thought that Mr. He and his wife had no children, because they hadn’t seen a photo of them with their children in the last visit, and when they mentioned that Gao Sijin’s lover was Mr. He’s apprentice, Qi Zi, He also has a deep memory of the grief that a white-haired person sent a black-haired person for a long time.

He thought it was because he had no children that the only junior he was close to had been away for ten years and couldn't calm down. He didn't expect them to have children of their own.

Gao Sijin guessed what Li Huaicheng was thinking when he saw Li Huaicheng's expression, he smiled and said: "Bo He and the others have a child, who is nearly fifty now, and has been living in Gaul since he went to study in high school. Well, the two old men were unable to go abroad to accompany their son because the focus of their careers were both in China, so at that time Uncle He took Qi Zi as his apprentice and raised him as his youngest son."

After hearing this, Li Huaicheng understood why He and his wife were so sad. No wonder he thought about it before. It’s good that people have feelings, but everyone’s feelings are limited. If it’s just ordinary or just loved When the younger generation passes away, the two old people may be sad and emotional, but they will never be able to let go of it for ten years.

This kind of pain that cannot be erased by time can only be felt between parents and children, or between deeply loved lovers.

"I will visit them more often." Li Huaicheng said to Gao Sijin.

Gao Sijin laughed when he heard the words, looked at him with gentle and soft eyes, somehow there seemed to be a trace of coldness hidden in the depths, his eyes fell on his face, but it seemed to be looking at another person through him.

"You look like...Qi Zi." Gao Sijin retracted his gaze, and the smile on his face disappeared a lot, but the whole person didn't seem difficult to solve because of this, on the contrary, he felt a little more real than before.

"It's not about appearance, but about character." Gao Sijin looked into the distance with vacant eyes, and said in a low voice, "The indifferent and kind-hearted contradictory character that grew up in an extremely dark environment seems to be more indifferent, but in fact, he is soft-hearted. .”

Li Huaicheng pursed his lips and did not speak. Even if Gao Sijin said that his personality was like his deceased lover, he did not think that Gao Sijin would really see the shadow of his lover from him, because after Gao Sijin spoke, his eyes never turned to him. I saw it once.

"Do you know why you inherited the Gaoyuan Group?"

Gao Sijin returned to his usual smiling appearance, it seemed that he had never appeared before when he was slumped and cold just now, even there was a gentle smile in his eyes.

Li Huaicheng shook his head, Gao Sijin's next sentence directly made Li Huaicheng's eyes widen.

"Because I can't have children."

Seeing Li Huaicheng's surprised look, Gao Sijin smiled instead, and said: "Speaking of it, I always thought it was a good thing, because the obstacles between me and Qizi would be much smaller, and I didn't think it was a thing until now. bad thing."

Li Huaicheng suddenly realized why the Gao family could only be inherited by him, and why it was decided when Gao Sijin was still young. If this is the case, it is not surprising.

"But even if it's not you." Gao Sijin said lightly, "Gaoyuan Group will not fall on Jiang Huaikang."

Li Huaicheng was slightly startled, looked at Gao Sijin, and waited for him to continue.

"Even if I can't bear children, if you don't have the ability to inherit the Gaoyuan Group, the Gao family would rather hand over the Gaoyuan Group to a professional manager or wait for me to donate all my shares after a hundred years, rather than handing over to someone who can't afford it." The person who plays the important role of the group."

"But Jiang Huaikang was still young at the time, why do you..."

Gao Sijin shook his head, and said lightly: "The old saying 'three years old is old, seven years old' is not unfounded. Jiang Huaikang's character was very domineering and willful when he was young, but at that time we all thought it was because Si An loved him because of his premature birth. The reason, so although you will remind your mother, you won't think too much, but something happened later, let us completely exclude Jiang Huaikang from the scope of heirs."

Gao Sijin frowned slightly, apparently very displeased with what he was going to say, he said: "Huaixin was born not long ago, because the family was too busy at that time, no one was watching the baby room, so your mother asked Jiang Huaikang to take a look at it. Look, unexpectedly, within 10 minutes, Huai Xin fell off the crib."

Li Huaicheng raised his brows when he heard the words, he pursed his lips and said hesitantly, "Jiang Huaikang did it?"

"Yes." Gao Sijin said lightly: "He was still young at the time, and he didn't admit it, so no one pursued him for it, but he was no longer allowed to be alone with the egg roll, but after that incident, he never mentioned it again. Let him inherit the ideas of the Gaoyuan Group."

"Then how are you sure it's him?" Li Huaicheng frowned. You can't say that only Jiang Huaikang and Li Huaixin were in the room, so you can be sure that Jiang Huaikang did Li Huaixin's fall.

"There are surveillance cameras in the baby room." Gao Sijin said.

Li Huaicheng pursed his lips. He really never thought that Jiang Huaikang would do such a thing when he was a child. No wonder he had never even heard of Jiang Huaikang inheriting the Gaoyuan Group in his last life.

"Okay." Gao Sijin stood up with a smile, and said: "If you have something that bothers you, you can talk to your uncle. If you don't want to talk to your elders, you can also talk to Huai Jin or your friends. Don't hold back, try Trust others more."

Li Huaicheng hesitated for a moment before nodding, and followed Gao Sijin out of the meeting room.

From the afternoon to the way back, Li Huaicheng was consolidating the information in his mind, and the conversation with Gao Sijin in the afternoon solved many of his doubts, but there were no extra clues for him.

Back at Li’s home, Li Huaicheng was hugged by Li Huaixin’s legs as soon as he entered the door. Li Huaixin is already in the second grade of elementary school and has to go to class every day except weekends, and it is difficult for Li Huaicheng to spare time to go home because of work and internship. Leaving early and returning late, it doesn't coincide with Li Huaixin's schedule, so Li Huaicheng hasn't seen Li Huaixin for a long time, let alone play with her.

Seeing Li Huaicheng who came home on time after get off work, Li Huaixin was obviously very excited, hugged his waist and chatted with him about the school, and complained to him that Chu Qi was disobedient and pickier than her.

The youngest daughter, who was still wearing the standard school uniform, hugged the youngest son's waist affectionately and talked non-stop. Her big eyes were full of dependence and smiles. The youngest son didn't even have time to take off his coat, and he didn't even have the briefcase in his hand. Putting it down, he just looked down at the little girl who was only a little taller than his waist with a doting look on his face.

This was the scene that Li's mother saw when she went downstairs, and her face, which was already smiling softly, softened even more.

"I'm back." Li's mother walked up to Li Huaicheng, took the briefcase in his hand and said, "Aunt Wang is already cooking, and I just made your favorite dish today."

Li Huaicheng smiled at Li Mu and said, "Thank you Mom, I will eat more later."

Li's mother nodded slightly, the smile on her face remained unchanged, but deep in her eyes was the loss and sadness that could not be concealed.

The youngest son grew up day by day, but the way he looked at her never changed. It was still as gentle and polite as if he had just come back. Even after six years, he didn't look at her with any intimacy.

Even if it was her little daughter who was holding him, she sometimes couldn't help but envy and regret. If she hadn't done anything wrong at the beginning, the relationship between her and Huaicheng should be different now.

Not long after Li Huaicheng arrived home, Li Huaijin and Li's father also came back. They were also very happy to see Li Huaicheng. It was rare for the family to get together, and a bottle of wine was opened for dinner.

After dinner, Li's mother said: "Xiaorui's birthday is Saturday, and we are invited to her birthday party. Do you have time?"

Father Li shook his head and said, "I'm going on a business trip on Thursday, and I won't be back until Sunday."

Li's mother nodded when she heard the words. She knew Li's father's itinerary, so it was not surprising.

"I have time." Li Huaijin said, "I will accompany you on Saturday."

Li's mother had a smile on her face when she heard this, she thought that the whole family was so busy that they would not be able to spare time, but she did not expect that the eldest son would accompany her.

"I also have time." Li Huaicheng said under the surprised eyes of his parents and elder brother: "My Aunt Fang gives me many presents every year on my birthday. This year she has a rare birthday party, and I think I should attend it."

"Me too!" Li Huaixin raised her hand, "I don't have piano lessons on Saturday, I can go to Aunt Fang's house with my brother to play!"

Li Huaicheng has been very busy during this time, so busy that he hardly saw anyone, Li's mother thought that he might not have time, but Li's mother did not expect that Li Huaicheng would also say that he would go.

A pleasant smile appeared on Li's mother's face, and she said with a gentle smile, "Let's go together that Saturday."

……

Soon on Saturday, Li Huaicheng's family went to Fang Rui's house early after lunch.

Fang Rui does not live in Dongcheng District, but in Xicheng District, which is not far from Dongcheng District. There are not many people in the area. Fang Rui's family is in a single-family villa in Xicheng District.

The car slowly drove into the community, Li Huaicheng looked at the vibrant green vegetation outside the window, and glanced across a villa with a small spire, and asked inadvertently: "I only know that Aunt Fang has settled down in Myanmar, but I don't know where she is. Do you know what occupation you are in?"

Li Huaijin who was sitting next to Li Huaicheng replied, "Aunt Fang is a carver who specializes in carving jade."

Li Huaicheng nodded, and asked again: "What is the relationship between Uncle Fang, the housekeeper of the old house, and Aunt Fang? I saw Aunt Fang talking to Uncle Fang before, and they looked very familiar."

"Uncle Fang is Aunt Fang's father." Li Huaijin said, "Uncle Fang worked in Li's family when his grandfather was young. Later, his wife died young and he lived directly in Li's family. Aunt Fang was also in Li's family. big."

Li Huaicheng nodded thoughtfully when he heard the words, and didn't ask any more questions. It seemed that he just started this topic just because he was bored. Seeing that the car was about to stop, he stopped talking without interest.

The car stopped in front of a single-family villa, and Li's mother and Li Huaixin, who were sitting in the previous car, got out of the car, followed by Li Huaicheng and Li Huaijin.

Fang Rui seemed to have been waiting at the door early, when she saw Gao Si'an and Li Huaicheng smiling, she walked over and said, "Come in, it's hot outside."

Stepping into Fang Rui's house, no matter the exquisite decorations that are visible to the eyes or the pure white sofa and the pure white carpet beside the sofa, one can find that she is a person who pays great attention to the quality of life.

Li Huaicheng looked around calmly, his eyes shifted from the decorative paintings to the antique shelves, which seemed to be just a few jade carvings placed randomly, his eyes flickered slightly.

Fang Rui's financial resources are even more astonishing than he imagined.

Fang Rui and Gao Sian, who were walking in the front, held arms, as if they were young when they came home from school. They talked about their respective affairs with smiles. Li Huaicheng and Li Huaijin followed behind, and Li Huaixin obediently led the two of them. hands.

Fang Rui took them to sit down in the living room and ordered them to serve the three people's favorite drinks and fruit plates. Li Huaicheng was a little surprised when he saw the orange juice. Fang Rui noticed his expression and smiled: "I was at the R&SS celebration party I saw that you only drank orange juice when I first saw you, and when I saw you a few times later, I found that you hardly drink other beverages besides orange juice, so I asked my aunt to specially squeeze orange juice for you to drink."

Li Huaicheng thanked her with a smile, but his heart skipped a beat for Fang Rui's observation ability and carefulness. It is hard for anyone to refuse her with such a gentle smile and gentleness. At this time, Li Huaicheng can understand why Fang Rui can climb so far. Taller.

After Fang Rui finished speaking, she stopped paying attention to this side, and continued to talk to Gao Si'an. Li Huaicheng lowered his eyes and handed fruit to Li Huaixin, but his ears were always paying attention to their conversation.

——After all, further investigation and familiarity with Fang Rui, and even knowing some evidence, is the reason why he came to Fang Rui's birthday party today.

However, what Fang Rui and Gao Sian said were only topics that some women like to talk about, such as fashion and cosmetics, and children.

Just after finishing the last topic, Gao Si'an looked at Fang Rui and asked, "Have you still not found someone you like? Zhiming and I are very worried about you."

Fang Rui shook her head with a smile, and said, "I think my life is pretty good now, there is no need to deliberately change it."

Gao Si'an sighed and asked: "Are you still unable to let go of the person you liked before? It's been so many years, if you could find him, you should have found him long ago, and you should also look at other people."

Li Huaicheng poked the hand of the mango for a small meal, and while feeding it into Li Huaixin's mouth, he raised his head calmly and looked in the direction of Li's mother and Fang Rui, as if he was simply curious about this topic.

Fang Rui smiled slightly, and said softly, both relieved and sighing: "I can't find him anymore, so let's go on like this. If it wasn't for him, I don't want to settle down."

"You." Gao Si'an seemed to shake his head helplessly: "We can't even talk about you."

Fang Rui smiled coquettishly when she heard the words, her fair skin and playful expression seemed to be that of a girl just over [-], and she said, "Don't worry, I know what kind of life I want to live, and I have never given up working hard. enough."

Seeing that Li's mother just pursed her lips and chuckled lightly after speaking, Fang Rui continued: "Look at this small house and every decoration in it, I earned it with my own hands, and I feel as if I brought it to my house. I am extremely happy, and other things I want can be done slowly.”

Only then did Gao Sian feel a little happier, and said, "You are really great."

Fang Rui smiled and said nothing, but Gao Si'an seemed to have thought of something suddenly, and the smile on his face also subsided a little: "This year... will Uncle Fang come over?"

The smile on Fang Rui's face faded slightly, and she said, "He spends every day with Uncle Li and Aunt Li, so how can he have time to attend my birthday party?"

Gao Si'an shook his head when he heard the words: "I don't know why you guys are arguing, but it's been so many years, can't you bow your head first? Fang Bo stays alone in the old house with his parents, sometimes he misses you very much, right?" .”

Fang Rui shook her head slightly, and said: "I have no conflict with him, it's just that we have different opinions, and he spends every day with his uncle and aunt, so he has no time to miss me."

"You." Gao Si'an smiled and said, "You're still as childish as before at this age."

Fang Rui smiled and stopped talking, Gao Si'an also saw that Fang Rui didn't want to talk about it, so he changed the topic very considerately, and the two continued to chat.

Li Huaicheng sat and listened for a long time, and heard that Fang Rui could avoid topics about himself every time, and knew that she would probably not say anything more about the news he wanted, so he asked during the conversation between Fang Rui and Gao Sijin : "Aunt Fang, can I walk around the house alone? I'm very interested in your decoration."

Fang Rui smiled generously and said, "Of course, if you like something, just tell me and just take it."

Li Huaicheng came to Xie with a smile, and left the living room with Li Huaixin, who was unwilling to let go of him, and Li Huaijin, who was about to find a quiet space to rest.

Li Huaijin found a guest room to rest under the servant's instructions, while Li Huaicheng took Li Huaixin's hand and began to visit Fang Rui's house little by little.

The more Li Huaicheng looked at this house, the more he became speechless. Whether it was the jade carvings on Fang Rui's ancient shelf or the stones piled up in the corner of the garden like ordinary stones, all of them reflected Fang Rui's strong financial resources. However, after walking around, Apart from being surprised that Fang Rui is richer than he imagined, he didn't see anything else.

Leading Li Huaixin back to the living room, as soon as he entered, he found a figure he was not familiar with and definitely not unfamiliar—Cheng Hao's mother.
