An old injury?
Chen Cheng clenched the jade pendant in his hand, as if his strength had suddenly been taken away from him. He fell back on the chair, mumbling two words over and over again:
"Old injuries..."
Did Shengsheng know something?
A while ago, not long after he came back, he received a letter from Mr. Han, inviting him to his home for a chat.
When he learned that Mr. Han once had the opportunity to adopt Shengsheng but did not do it, he felt a little resentful.
Even if he didn't adopt her, it would be okay for him to visit her often, right?
If Mr. Han came to visit often, how dare the Lu family treat Shengsheng, an orphan, like that!
He didn't know whether the dream really happened or he was just overthinking it.
But when he thought about the little girl he held in his arms dying in the countryside, he felt like killing someone!
Of course, he hated himself the most. If...
If only I could find her earlier, if only... I didn't have so many concerns...
In the past few days, he has been thinking over and over about some of the things that happened in his dreams, in order to find a loophole to convince himself that the dream was fake and he should not believe it!
The soft and sweet girl in the dream is not Shengsheng.
Shengsheng is determined and brave!
However, he subconsciously felt that Shengsheng in his dream was real. His temperament changed drastically because he must have been severely bullied by the Lu family!
During those days, he even wanted to dig out Lu Hongjun and whip his corpse.
The family in the dream lived a good life until they died, especially Lu Xiaoxiao, who even started a company. Why?
Everything their family eats and uses was obtained by stepping on the corpses of the Shikano family.
Chen Cheng clenched the jade pendant in his hand. He now knew the purpose of this jade pendant.
He has been thinking about it these past few days and could only guess that Shengsheng's space might be hidden in this jade pendant.
So he has been cherishing it very much recently, thinking that after he finishes arranging things here in the next few days, he will go to Liao Province, return the jade pendant to Shengsheng, and tell her the purpose of the jade pendant, so that she will not be careless and give it to someone else.
How could I keep such an important thing? It would have been fine if I didn't know about it, but now that I know it, I must return it to her.
However, it’s okay to ask Lu Jianguo for some interest before leaving!
After all, there is a saying that goes "son pays father's debt"~
Chen Cheng's eyes were filled with hatred.
Why could their family of bad guys live so well in the dream, while his Shengsheng had to die in that shabby house with leaks everywhere!
————————————
Just at this moment, Wang Er also came back with something in his arms. He walked into the study without knocking. Seeing his boss leaning on the chair with a tired look on his face, he suddenly felt distressed.
Alas! The boss has become more and more gloomy recently...
“Boss…”
When Chen Cheng opened his eyes again, the gloom in his eyes had long disappeared without a trace. Looking at Wang Er who was smiling frivolously, he said helplessly:
"What happened again?"
Wang Er's face was full of smiles. He always felt that the boss had changed a little, but overall, he was getting better and better to him.
If it were usual, he wouldn't dare to barge in so recklessly.
Chen Cheng looked at the cunning man in front of him and couldn't help but doubt, is this really the Wang Er who was killing people with him in Gangcheng?
Looking forward, backward, left, right, up and down, there is not the slightest similarity!
Except for this face full of pockmarks...
In that dream, Wang Er later wandered with himself all the way to Gangcheng, and later he did quite well and had his own small group. However, the good times did not last long. He was stabbed several times in a gunfight and died on the spot.
Therefore, Chen Cheng has been extremely tolerant of him recently.
Wang Er didn't know the inside story and felt a little guilty when he saw him like that. Could it be that he was discovered fooling around last night?
He quickly put away his carefree look and pretended to be calm:
"Boss, why are you looking at me like that? I haven't done anything to let you down."
Chen Cheng was so angry that he laughed!
That’s it???
Forget it, now he would rather believe that the dream was false, and Wang Er was the biggest loophole!
I must have expected too much from this product.
Without paying attention to why he felt guilty, she asked calmly, "How is Lu Jianguo, the person I asked you to monitor?"
Wang Er breathed a sigh of relief instantly. As long as it wasn’t his problem, good thing!
He quickly replied, "He has done something dishonest and has been fired. He now lives in that house in the east of the city, drinking all day long! The two of them now rely on Song Chunfen to wash and mend clothes for them to make a living."
Chen Cheng nodded, thought for a moment and asked, "Is Mr. Ma's place still open?"
Speaking of this, Wang Er became excited and nodded quickly: "It's open, and Erye's business is booming!"
He also went out to play some big money last night and made a lot of extra money.
Chen Cheng's cold eyes shot over when he heard this, staring unkindly at Wang Er's smiling face, and his voice was so cold that it seemed to be able to quench ice:
"Have I ever told you to avoid those smoky and foul places?"
Wang Er quickly lowered his head and dared not speak. He wanted to slap himself twice. How come this broken mouth was so useless?
When Chen Cheng thought of him lying in a pool of blood, he wanted to let the matter go, but thinking of his reckless nature, he had to harden his heart and walk up to him.
She grabbed his collar and warned him fiercely: "If I find out that you go to those shady places again, you don't have to follow me.
Just go back to where you came from. My temple is too small to accommodate a big Buddha like you."
To Wang Er, these words were indeed a bit harsh, but Chen Cheng knew that if he didn't speak more harshly, he would not learn his lesson.
As expected, Wang Er panicked, raised three fingers and swore, and said hastily:
"Boss, I was wrong. I will never go there again. Really, please believe me. Please believe me this time. If I go there again, I will... die on the street and no one will come to collect my body. I will never have a..." a good death in this life...
“That’s enough!”
When Chen Cheng heard the words "died on the street and no one came to collect the body", he panicked and the veins on his face throbbed. Was this a prophecy that came true?
The heart that had finally hardened softened in an instant:
"Stop talking nonsense in the future. Can you just say such things casually?
I don't let you go to the casino for your own good. You are my only brother now. If something happens to you, I will have to humble myself and rescue you. It would be good if I can rescue you, but what if I can't?"
Wang Er was stunned on the spot. He didn't even know that he held such a high position in the boss' heart...
Seeing that he didn't take it seriously, Chen Cheng added: "Of course, if you really want to go, I won't stop you. Just don't come back, and I'll treat you as dead outside!"
Died on that cold rainy night...
