I'm back
He had planned to send Zou Yuqing and Xu Wang back to Weimin and then go to the company to handle some matters, but just as he was about to get back into the driver's seat, Zou Yuqing stopped him and said, "Have a meal before you leave."
Wei Mingjue paused, then immediately parked the car, scratched his head like a young boy, and blushed as he followed Zou Yuqing and Xu Wang. As they went upstairs, he squatted in front of Zou Yuqing's wheelchair and let her lie on his back.
"Well, just hold on to me, no need to carry me." Zou Yuqing blushed. He was also an Alpha, and Xu Wang was still behind him.
However, Wei Mingjue was very determined and remained squatting without getting up. "Come up, someone will be coming soon. Don't block them from going upstairs."
Pursing his lips, Zou Yuqing climbed onto Wei Mingjue's back with a red face. He didn't dare look back at Xu Wang's eyes. Xu Wang carried his wheelchair upstairs without saying a word.
When they reached the second floor, Wei Mingjue put Zou Yuqing down, and together with Xu Wang, they helped Zou Yuqing into the door.
Xu Jie is feeling much better now. Perhaps thanks to her aunt's company, she can now communicate normally with others and smile. Just like now, when she saw the people next to her son, she smiled and invited them in, saying, "My son brought his friends to play."
She couldn't remember people when she was in a very bad mental state, so even if Xu Wang and Wei Mingjue had come, even many times, she wouldn't know.
"Mom, I'm back. This is Xu Wang, my best friend and college classmate. And this is... also my friend, Wei Mingjue." Zou Yuqing introduced them. When he mentioned Wei Mingjue, he suddenly didn't know what to say. At the moment, "friends" might be the most reasonable relationship between him and Wei Mingjue.
"Great, great, you're all as handsome as our Yu Qing!" Xu Jie looked very happy. "Tell Auntie what you want to eat tonight, and I'll make it for you!"
"Mom, don't bother. I'll do it. Auntie will have to trouble you to accompany my mom. Let's go back to the room first." After saying that, Zou Yuqing took Wei Mingjue and Xu Wang back to the room.
The room was still small, and it seemed even more crowded with three grown men sitting there. The atmosphere at the moment was a bit weird.
Because of his mobility issues, Zou Yuqing couldn't go out to get some water, so he opened a bottle of mineral water nearby and threw two bottles to them.
After taking a sip of water, Xu Wang suddenly chuckled, "I feel like a light bulb right now."
After saying this, the other two people in the room felt awkward. Actually, it wasn't awkward at all, but after Xu Wang finished speaking, they looked at each other in tacit understanding, then looked away, their ears red.
They had obviously done everything, but now they were so innocent. Xu Wang found the two people in front of him a little interesting.
But he knew that his friend was shy, so he didn't plan to say anything to make their faces blush further. "I never thought that one day I would be able to sit next to you so calmly. I obviously hated you so much before... but now, I think you seem to be okay." As he said, he looked at Wei Mingjue.
"Why are you talking about this suddenly?" Zou Yuqing was a little panicked. If the topic continued like this, he was afraid that Xu Wang would suddenly hold his and Wei Mingjue's hands like a emcee and do something outrageous. After all, Xu Wang was indeed capable of doing such a thing.
"Thank you." Unexpectedly, Wei Mingjue was so embarrassed to thank him. Zou Yuqing immediately changed the subject and looked at Xu Wang and asked, "How is your store business? Your parents must be very busy recently, and winter vacation is coming soon."
"It's okay. Winter vacation is still more than half a month away. If I get really busy, I won't be able to make an appointment with you." Xu Wang replied, "What about you? What about your internship?"
"I'll start looking after I take down the boards... By the way, Wei Mingjue, you have a lot of things to deal with in your company, right? Were you going back to the company to deal with things just now?" Zou Yuqing felt a little embarrassed when he suddenly thought of this question.
Yes, he had originally planned to go to the company to deal with those outstanding issues, but in his heart, Zou Yuqing's affairs were much more important than the company's affairs. If Zou Yuqing asked him to stay, he would definitely stay.
"No, the company's affairs have always been handled by the supervisors. I can just contact them online." Wei Mingjue explained, "Zou Yuqing, when you have recovered, are you willing to return to Shuangming?"
"I..." Zou Yuqing was a little confused. He was the one who decided to leave Shuangming in the first place. If he went back now, wouldn't it be a bit too casual for Wei Mingjue?
"Everyone in the department misses you." Wei Mingjue said, looking at Zou Yuqing, "Come back."
"Yes, don't you miss your colleagues too? Going back to Shuangming is a good choice." Xu Wang also said.
"Our cooperation with Xinhua will not end. If you miss them, you can see them often. If you go on a business trip to City C, we can go together."
The eyes of the person before him held a tenderness and love that was impossible to appear at first. Zou Yuqing's heart warmed and he nodded, "Okay."
It's like this, why not go back? Go back. After experiencing life and death, he has accepted everything, including Wei Ming Jue.
That night, Wei Mingjue also stayed. He consciously went to sleep on the sofa in the living room. The next morning, when Zou Yuqing saw Wei Mingjue hunched on the sofa with his limbs unable to stretch, he felt mixed emotions.
The two of them accompanied Zou Yuqing to the hospital for a follow-up checkup, and the doctor said the splints could be removed. His skin injuries were severe when he was taken to the hospital, but they were healing quickly. The most serious injury was his broken leg, which can now be removed. Every time he came to the hospital, he would think of how Xia Fan protected him. It was because of Xia Fan that he was able to recover so quickly.
Xia Fan will always live in their hearts.

After another week of rest, Zou Yuqing returned to Shuangming. A few days ago, Wei Mingjue brought the contract directly to his home. He signed his name, and then saw Wei Mingjue's relaxed smile. Many colleagues already knew he was coming back, and they contacted him on WeChat, expressing their happiness to see him again.
The moment he stepped into the department and saw everyone standing up to welcome him back, his eyes were red. "I'm back," he said.
"You take good care of him, I'm leaving first." Wei Mingjue said with a smile as he stood behind Zou Yuqing.
"Of course! Don't worry, Mr. Wei!" Mu Yun was the most excited one. She wanted to jump onto Zou Yuqing and hug the Alpha whom she had been worried about for a long time, but she was afraid that Wei Mingjue would fire her if she did that, so she dared to rush up and hug Zou Yuqing only after Wei Mingjue nodded and left.
"Okay, okay, I'm fine, don't cry." Zou Yuqing patted Mu Yun's back. He felt the Omega in his arms trembling.
Mu Yun was genuinely worried. Ever since Zou Yuqing left Shuangming, she'd been thinking about him constantly. Seeing Shuangming in trouble and all the terrible news on the news had driven her crazy. Now, Zou Yuqing reappeared in good health, which made her excited but also sad. She felt so sorry for this Alpha.
"Mu Yun, if you keep hugging me, I'll tell President Wei." The other colleagues were also in a good mood after seeing Zou Yuqing and started teasing Mu Yun, but they all knew that Mu Yun and Zou Yuqing were very good friends.
"What! Don't you want to see me tomorrow?" Mu Yun sniffed and let go of Zou Yuqing, saying a little aggrieved.
The atmosphere in the department was relaxed and pleasant. Normally, at this time, Supervisor Cui would ask Mu Yun to return to her seat and would not allow everyone to chat like this, but today she did not speak and just smiled at the employees at her workstation.
"I really didn't expect it to be Yan Yue and the others. I had long thought it was a problem with the production department, but I didn't expect that almost everyone would fall." After calming down, Mu Yun clenched his fists, "I really don't understand what President Wei did to her that she would do such a thing."
"Yeah, that's horrible. They use factory raw materials to make those things and sell them everywhere. They're not afraid of divine punishment."
"The most outrageous thing is that it involves Zou Yuqing and Xia Fan, Xia Fan..."
When Xia Fan was mentioned, everyone fell silent again. They all went to the funeral and looked at Xia Fan's portrait, crying so hard that they couldn't breathe.
Not many people knew the cause and effect of the incident, but they all saw the news and saw acquaintances from the factory production department, such as Yan Yue and Yang Yang. Everyone was shocked and angry.
"She is really good at pretending. President Wei thinks highly of her and offers her such a high salary, but she is still not satisfied and does such disgusting things." Colleagues began to speak up for Wei Mingjue.
"They will all get the punishment they deserve." Zou Yuqing said with pursed lips.
Wei Mingjue had never mentioned these things to him, but he had been following the news. The K City black market case was the most high-profile case recently. Because it was a case of intentional homicide, the police had a lot of evidence and launched an arrest operation.
Yan Yue was captured on a cruise ship heading to K City. This Omega seemed to have anticipated her own ending long ago and accepted it all very calmly. Perhaps she had been preparing for her own ending since the moment Wei Mingjue discovered her identity.
"I will not regret anything I have done. All the pain and loss are what Wei Mingjue deserves." This is what she said to the media, which caused an uproar.
Many people began to dig into the grudge between Yan Yue and Wei Mingjue, and finally discovered that there was another person involved in all the things - Jiang Lu, so Jiang Lu's affairs were also slowly dug out.
"Jiang Lu was my high school classmate, but I wasn't familiar with him. He had always admired Wei Mingjue. To say he admired him would be an understatement. His obsession with Wei Mingjue was quite frightening to us. However, Wei Mingjue didn't like him. You all know that Alpha's personality. He was a rich second-generation and extremely arrogant. Back then, he was very rude when he rejected people, so Jiang Lu... you know. Later, he dropped out of school. I heard that he had a mental illness. I would say he had it from the beginning, otherwise he wouldn't be so fanatical about one person."
"Wait, love turns to hate? So you want to take away everything from Wei Mingjue? This is too scary..."
"Didn't he kill the person Wei Mingjue loved? But he killed the wrong person. This is no longer love, it's perversion."
Everyone was shocked and regretful about the cause of this farce. Was it just because Wei Mingjue rejected him that he had to take revenge like this? Many people had other opinions.
"No one is talking about Yan Yue? Her brother was rejected, so why does she hate Wei Mingjue so much? Is she a brother complex? This is too scary. It seems that both the siblings have psychological problems."
"No, it's one thing for a brother and sister to be sick, but why is no one talking about the black market?"
"People outside of K City may not know this, but the underground black market has been incredibly rampant over the past decade, selling a lot of illegal drugs and destroying many families. The boss behind this is very resourceful, hasn't anyone noticed? Those arrested so far are all parentless or abandoned. They come from all corners of the country, all working for this boss. They're incredibly loyal, like they've been brainwashed. They're all pawns."
"I'm from K City, and I can prove that what's said above is true. The police have been searching for evidence of the black market for the past few years, but they're so perceptive that they're completely helpless. This time, it was Wei Mingjue's incident that led them out, and they found so many clues and evidence. As a K City resident, I can only say that I'm both heartbroken and grateful. Otherwise, these transactions in K City would have destroyed the city sooner or later."
"So don't be too love-brained, even though they are sick..."
The online comments shocked everyone and made Zou Yuqing even more heartbroken over Xia Fan's death. The black market boss hadn't been apprehended precisely because he had such a loyal group of pawns.
Perhaps the black market would calm down for a while, but what would happen after that? Even if these people were arrested, there would be thousands more homeless, brainwashed pawns. Of course, they couldn't take care of all that; it was all the police's business.
After work on the first day back in Shuangming, Wei Mingjue came to the department to pick up Zou Yuqing. He was a little embarrassed, but still followed Wei Mingjue out of the company under the excited gaze of his colleagues.
Now everything has changed, and he will cherish the present.
