Xu Mengyu joins a variety show and unexpectedly encounters her ex-boyfriend, a former soldier. Unexpectedly, the ruthless director abandons them on a deserted island surrounded by a dead sea. Since...
Zheng Tianming didn't say a word all day. He sat by the window looking outside. The little boy's photo was stored on his phone. The bloody gash on his waist was shocking, like a bullet piercing his chest and hitting his heart.
Liang Dawei was also in a bad mood. He wanted to do something, but he couldn't get involved, and he felt powerless.
They were being watched from the moment they boarded the plane. If they got involved now, those people might become desperate and kill them to silence them.
A bunch of beasts, do you expect them to have any conscience?
Li Fengmao, who is usually talkative and cheerful, fell silent at this moment. Everyone has a heart, and it would be a lie to say that he was not saddened when he saw the photos of the scene.
He's about to become a father.
That evening, the three of them ate their first meal together.
"These beasts deserve to be torn to pieces." Liang Dawei took a sip of his drink; he didn't dare to think any further.
It's clear they have a very sophisticated system. This organization has been established for at least ten years, during which time countless children have died in despair.
At an age when they should be carefree, chasing flowers and butterflies, playing with cats and dogs, they have to suffer these things...
Zheng Tianming drank two bottles of wine in silence: "Alright, go to sleep early. I still have to go to the library and have some fun tomorrow."
Li Fengmao ate his meal heartily; he didn't like drinking alcohol.
Zheng Tianming had just entered the bathroom to take a shower when his phone rang. It was a text message from Xu Mengyu:
Hey handsome, what are you doing? Look at the bird.
Xu Mengyu was just teasing Zheng Tianming. Her father had said that what he was going to do was very dangerous, and in order to ensure that he was happy and that he would not make any mistakes at work, she was very willing to cooperate.
Zheng Tianming entered the bathroom: [Getting ready to take a shower, want to see?]
Xu Mengyu lay on the sofa, and for some reason, just a few words made her blush and her heart race. It wasn't like she hadn't seen them before.
To Zheng Tianming's surprise, the little vixen actually sent a video, so he had no choice but to turn the volume down to the lowest setting.
Neither of them spoke.
Xu Mengyu stared intently at her phone, admiring the exaggerated proportions, the lines, and... how large...
Zheng Tianming wasn't embarrassed at all. He finished his shower as usual, and when he came out, he wrapped a towel around his neck: "Do I look good?"
He asked via text message; there are two more outside.
Xu Mengyu nodded: [It's great! Show me more, I love it.]
Zheng Tianming smiled helplessly: "I'll show it to you every day when we get back." He didn't know what was so interesting about it; it wasn't aesthetically pleasing at all.
Xu Mengyu thought to herself, "Come back and see if I still want you. You never tell the truth and you never keep your word. Who knows, you might be taking on dangerous people again someday." She and Lulu lived in constant fear.
She admires those who make selfless contributions, and even more so the women who silently support them, but she can't do that.
She knows what kind of life she wants.
Zheng Tianming lay down on the large bed with his phone in hand: [Aren't you busy with renovations? Aren't you tired?]
Xu Mengyu lay on the sofa: "Don't even mention it. My dad contracted out the project; there's no need for him to supervise at all."
Who would dare to fool Xu Sichen?
Zheng Tianming looked at Xu Mengyu through the screen: [Do you miss me?] He definitely missed her terribly.
Xu Mengyu smiled sweetly, holding up her phone and kissing the screen several times: 【I miss you so much!】
Zheng Tianming felt uneasy.
After the video ended, Zheng Tianming tossed and turned, his mind filled with the image of the little boy...
To Zheng Tianming's surprise, the next afternoon, Longhang sent another photo, a picture of the people attending the banquet.
Longhang: [Team Leader Zheng, this is beyond our control...]
The people who come to this banquet are all either rich or noble, and their identities are beyond imagination. Once it gets out, it will probably be of no use.
Even if Xu Sichen's men intervene, it will be useless. They simply cannot do anything about them, and they might even end up being accused of assassination and stirring up trouble.
Zheng Tianming showed the photos to Liang Dawei, and the two of them were plunged into a deep sense of powerlessness. They could only report to their superiors.
The conclusion was that the children had to be brought back no matter what, but no one said what would happen to these people.
Xu Sichen also received the photos. He fell silent at first, then called Zheng Lin and Pei Xiuyan into his study.
The three of them met from the afternoon until the evening before finally parting ways.
Pei Xiuyan's methods are always so direct and effective. Although they can't severely punish them, at least they let the world know that there is such a group of people doing despicable things.
Zheng Tianming received the email, which contained many details.
Xu Sichen: [Tianming, this world isn't just about black and white.]
The villains were right in front of him, and Zheng Tianming refused to believe that he couldn't do anything to them. He wanted to gather evidence, and even if he couldn't kill them, he would bring them down and make them pay for their actions.
He will do anything to get justice for the children.
Xu Sichen knew Zheng Tianming's personality and knew he wouldn't give up so easily. He made a phone call: "Old Bai, I need your help."
He rarely used the word "seek".
Bai Heng leaned back in his chair, curling his wife Jiang Yi's hair. Xu Sichen was actually begging him for Zheng Tianming's sake.
Despite their differing stances, Zheng Lin, who had stepped down from his position and was a member of the mafia, was still willing to protect his own children.
“The child is still young, and seeing a little darkness makes him think the sky is falling.” Jiang Yi said, looking at her phone.
There are many things he hasn't seen before.
Bai Heng lowered his head: "Wife, are you very interested?"
“Children need to be trained more on their own. Xu Sichen loves his wife and children, but he underestimates his future son-in-law.” Jiang Yi said, sitting up and picking up a wooden hairpin from the side, handing it to Bai Heng.
If someone doesn't even have this much ability, yet dares to take on such a big job, then they're overestimating themselves. But Tianming is someone she's watched grow up; he's brave and resourceful. If all else fails, it's not too late to step in.
Bai Heng gathered her long hair up and secured it at the back of her head...
Inside the hotel, Zheng Tianming bought return tickets for Li Fengmao and Liang Dawei; he planned to handle this matter alone.
“No, who do you think you are?” Li Fengmao said, standing up.
Zheng Tianming patted Li Fengmao on the shoulder: "Think about your family, your wife and children. This is not the time to play the hero."
Li Fengmao is just an ordinary person from a working-class family with no special background or status. His wife is now pregnant.
“I’ll stay. I’m fine on my own.” Liang Dawei said, glancing at Zheng Tianming. “Having company makes things easier.”
"It would be a lie to say I'm not afraid. My parents haven't had a chance to enjoy their retirement, my wife hasn't had a peaceful life with me, and my baby is due in a few months. I know this isn't the time to play the hero." Li Fengmao lowered his head.
Zheng Tianming didn't say anything; leaving was the right choice.
Li Fengmao raised his head: "I may be afraid, but I can't leave. There's no reason to run away before the battle even starts. If I back down, I'll be letting down this uniform and the trust placed in me."
Does Zheng Tianming not have a wife, children, or parents?
“Three people came, three people should go back, isn’t that the most basic principle?” Liang Dawei said, taking out his phone: “Quick, quick, get something to eat, we’re starving.”
He had no money and was entirely relying on Zheng Tianming's generosity.
Zheng Tianming sighed deeply: "You'll regret this..."
"The one who regrets it is the grandson," Liang Dawei said, pointing to something else: "What kind of noodles are these? Are they good? Four or five hundred a plate..."
Li Fengmao leaned closer: "Why eat noodles? There's steak there, isn't there? Give me two pieces, I'm still growing."
The two ordered dinner costing over two thousand yuan and then waited anxiously for Zheng Tianming to pay.
“...”
The scoundrel has paid.
