I fell silent.
I don't know why he had such a sudden emotional upheaval. As I lay in his arms, I could feel the huge emotions surging in his chest. He was never calm, like a child who had been wronged to the extreme.
"Ziqian, what happened to you?" I saw him calm down, so I sat up on the grass and asked.
"I don't know why, but when you said those words, I felt both admiration and heaviness in my heart." He looked at me and shook his head. "Shubei, do you know what my deepest feeling was?"
"What?" I couldn't help but ask.
"I feel so jealous of that guy. Jealous that he can obtain the only love in your heart. Jealous that he doesn't need to put his life on the line to protect you in exchange for your heart. "But he was so lucky, and yet he didn't know to cherish it." Tai Ziqian said in heartache.
I bitterly smiled and said, "It might not be that he doesn't know how to cherish things. Perhaps … It's because I don't know how to cherish them. Rou, Xiaoyun, both of them said something similar to what you just said in front of me, but I still chose to let go. Ziqian, you're talking about people, why is it always like this? You clearly know that you have lost something precious, yet you still chose to let go? "
"Because I did!" Tai Ziqian's words woke me up, and made a huge hole in my heart. I looked at him in a daze, and saw a bitter smile on his face.
I suddenly realized that Tai Ziqian didn't know since when, and it wasn't that bright anymore. His bright eyes had a trace of melancholy in them, and he looked much deeper than when he first started.
He said softly, "Perhaps that person felt that she was as bright as the stars and was one of the few good things in the world because I never got her. If he got it, maybe... That's all it is! "
He sighed heavily, then reached out and stroked my head. He said, "Shubei, do you feel much better here?"
"I feel much better now that I can say it." We walked to the outer edge of the mountain together. Standing on the observation deck, we could see the myriad lights of Hangcheng and night, the flashing neon lights, the residential buildings, the many roads, and the cars coming and going … Sheng Yun was somewhere in that city.
At this moment, was he in a meeting, working, driving through the streets of the city, or … What about toasting and drinking?
We stood at the top of the hill for a long time, until the wind began to cool down in the early hours of the morning.
By the time we reached the bottom of the mountain, the bonfire had already been extinguished. There were only a few people left on the beach. Someone had set up the bonfire and was roasting it with oil.
Ling Yue was still sitting there, his bathrobe had already been taken off, and he was sitting there with his upper body bare. Under the cover of the night, his face no longer looked so pretty, and the fierce lion on his back made him look more manly. As he ate and drank, he told jokes to the group of women sitting around him.
Xia Yiwa was among them. She had gone back to the hotel at some point and changed into a Bohemian beach skirt. She wore a special garland on her head, and she still seemed as outstanding as before when she sat with the group of women.
The woman on his left was wearing a long white dress. Her hair was tied up and had brown eyes. Her appearance was similar to that of a goddess from the Norse mythology.
Ling Yue still had his romantic attitude, as if a thousand glasses of wine was not drunk, and his hands were holding onto the meat and wine.
When he saw us from afar, he took the initiative to tease us, "Yo, these two went up the mountain in the middle of the night. I don't know what they went for."
"Would you believe me if I said we went to see the stars?" Tai Ziqian smiled and walked over to sit beside Ling Yue.
Ling Yue heavily punched towards Tai Ziqian's chest and laughed loudly, "It's the middle of the night? Look at the stars? A single man and a single woman? "
Then he let out a loud laugh.
I sat down next to Xia Yiwa, who neatly cut a large piece of mutton from the leg and placed it on a plate. She handed it to me and said, "Are you hungry? Eat, this lamb is very fragrant. "
I brought it over and grabbed it to eat. Xia Yiwa hooked her hand over my shoulder and looked at Ling Yue, "Ling Yue, what do you want to say? Don't think of others as dirty. "But seriously, you two went to the top of the mountain for so long, where did you go?"
Xia Yiwa's words made everyone burst out in laughter. The two beauties beside Ling Yue also laughed. I took a closer look and saw that the woman sitting beside Ling Yue was actually Rou's sister, Wan. Her white dress was fluttering in the wind as she sat there. Her temperament was indescribably clean.
I didn't expect that such an otherworldly woman would be willing to be with Ling Yue. Moreover, she was willing to accept Ling Yue's hug. I couldn't help but size her up, and found that she was sizing me up as well.
Ling Yue introduced the four women one by one. They were the first wife, second wife, third wife and fourth wife. When he introduced them, these women looked very natural. The women had different looks. Wan was the first wife, and her temperament was gentle and pure. The others had their own characteristics, but their beauty couldn't compare to Wan's. One woman looked very ordinary, with ordinary clothes and plain looks.
Thinking about it, for a normal person to be able to catch Ling Yue's eyes, it must be something extraordinary.
Looking at Ling Yue living like a contemporary Wei Xiaobao in a crowd of women, I suddenly had an indescribable feeling in my heart.
It was said that when a man had money or power, he would turn bad, and when a man turned bad, there would be no lack of women. There were many men like Ling Yue who enjoyed themselves in time, but not many were as magnanimous as him.
This person is different from any other man I've ever met. He has a deathly evil aura around him. And this evilness, every woman seemed to have an inexplicable attraction. I could feel the attraction from the change in Xia Yiwa's attitude towards him.
We stayed at the Phoenix Resort for two days, and during these two days we were very relaxed. Ling Yue had paid all of our expenses, and everything was top quality treatment. However, because of his identity, I always have my reservations towards him. I agree with him faintly, but never give him a good face.
After that, I hadn't seen him for half a year. In the past six months, I heard that Ling Yue and Tai Feng played a few chess games, and often played with Tai Ziqian.
Ling Yue, who used to be famous in Hangcheng for doing underground business, suddenly became the dark horse of Hangcheng's recent boom in the tourism industry.
He began to wash his hands, and entered the Hangcheng business circle as an entrepreneur. However, his dark history was still talked about with great interest.
My Noah also improved tremendously in this half year. Tai Ziqian and I worked together and invested in many projects in the past six months, and we were able to grasp every project accurately, so we quickly became famous in the investment world.
But now, I don't like to show my face anymore. Tai Ziqian and I are hiding behind the scenes and have the professional agent step in. Still, the news leaked, and someone already knew that I was behind Noah's investment.
We haven't seen each other since that farewell with Sheng Yun in half a year. However, I still habitually learned about his movements from the newspapers and the news every day. I knew almost everything about his movements.
His marriage to me became a "mystery" in the eyes of the media, and since then he has kept quiet about his private affairs, not about me, not about Zaizai, not about Duoduo, only about his work.
There was no gossip about him, and he, like me, became unusually quiet.
His cooperation with the Xu family had deepened. His attitude had gained Xu Changsheng's great trust, luring him to carry out round after round of financing. Xu Changsheng, has placed all of his treasures on the project with Sheng Shi.
The project went smoothly and without incident, a subversive product will be available in the middle of next year. Once this product was released, it would very likely cause the collapse of the traditional industrial chain, and could potentially become the "dark horse" in Hangcheng's current innovative products.
Almost everyone in the industry was optimistic about this project, as well as the grand cooperation between Golden Age and the Xu family. At the same time, the hearts of countless other companies were filled with panic …
Gradually, he began to consider himself as a big shot in the industry. He went to all the magazines and participated in all sorts of important summits, and he already regarded himself as a successful person. More than once, he had even said something outrageous after drinking, telling others that if it wasn't for the Xu family's support, Golden Age would have already passed.
Compared to Xu Changsheng's glee, Tai Ziqian and I appeared to be more and more calm and reasonable. We planned in the dark, each step extremely careful.
Through all kinds of methods and methods, we have already secretly obtained forty percent of the shares of the Xu's Group. The Xu family still has forty percent in Xu Changsheng's hands, and the other twenty percent has been transferred by Xu Changsheng to Golden Age.
All of our actions, Xu Changsheng did not know at all, he thought the shares were in the hands of countless different big and small shareholders, but did not know, those are all our people.
That night, Tai Ziqian and I stood in front of the window of the presidential suite of the Hangcheng Light Boat Hotel, each of us holding a cup of coffee as we looked down at Hangcheng. Tai Ziqian lightly sipped his coffee, lowered his head and looked at the Xu Family Building, and said meaningfully, "It's been so long since the sky cleared, it's time for the next downpour …"
