Cheng Yanqi didn't want to delay for a moment, and immediately set off with his friends to the city where the boxer "Cheng" was.
The United States is much larger than Hong Kong, and it would take a long time to travel there, but Cheng Yanqi was willing to spend money, so in just one day, he arrived at the city reported in the newspaper.
After arriving there, Cheng Yanqi immediately found the local TV station and asked about the boxer "Cheng".
"What do you want from him?" the TV station staff asked curiously.
"I'm a businessman and I want to ask him to shoot an advertisement." Cheng Yanqi said.
Cheng Yanqi felt that this man looked a bit like his son, but he was not sure, so he decided to go and take a look first.
If the boxer is really his son, that would be the best. If not, he would ask him to shoot a commercial because they are from the same country.
Cheng Yanqi was very generous and gave gifts to the people from the TV station. It happened that a reporter from the TV station had to go out to report news, so he agreed to take Cheng Yanqi there.
Upon learning that this reporter had interviewed "Cheng" before, Cheng Yanqi smiled and asked about it.
As a boxer, Cheng Hao's information was originally public. It would have been difficult for Cheng Yanqi to obtain it without the Internet.
The TV reporter said, "When he won the Golden Gloves Championship, our TV station interviewed him. I've also read his profile. He's very young, but very strong!"
This reporter was quite interested in boxing, and their TV station would often broadcast some boxing matches. At this moment, he talked about a lot of things one after another, such as how Cheng Hao defeated a very famous local boxer Samo a few years ago, and his match with Crazy Bull.
"Cheng was born in the slums. Before participating in the Golden Gloves competition, he often fought underground boxing. I have also seen the video of his match with Mad Bull. He was much smaller than he is now and had a broken rib... But he is very strong, which makes many people like him." The reporter obviously had a good impression of Cheng Hao and praised him very much when speaking of Cheng Hao.
But the more Cheng Yanqi listened, the more uncomfortable he felt.
If this Cheng is really his son...his son is abroad, making a living by boxing, and has even broken his ribs?
Now that he has finally gained some fame, someone is shooting at him?
At this moment, Cheng Yanqi no longer wanted this Cheng to be his son.
But this Cheng is exactly the same age as his son.
When Cheng Yanqi and his friends arrived at the hospital, Cheng Hao met Lin Yuxun's friends.
Three days have passed since Cheng Hao and Lin Yuxun confirmed their relationship. Cheng Hao had a very happy time during these three days, and Lin Yuxun's condition also improved.
Although Lin Yuxun would still be awakened at night, he would soon fall asleep again when lying next to Cheng Hao.
Today, after Old George and the others came, several of Lin Yuxun's friends, or should I say colleagues, came to Cheng Hao's place.
These people were brought by Galton.
After Cheng Hao got into trouble, Galton came once, but Cheng Hao was not in good condition at the time and couldn't even talk to them properly, so Galton just stood there for a while and left. Now, he came again, bringing other people and some food.
The food Galton brought was Pizza Hut and some other vacuum-packed snacks. After he came in, he gave these to Lin Yuxun and looked at Cheng Hao: "Cheng, I heard that you can't box anymore. What a pity."
"Yes." Cheng Hao smiled. After learning that Galton was his fan and was promoting him at school, he no longer had any ill feelings towards him.
To be honest, although Galton's words and deeds were often annoying, there was really no hatred between him and Galton.
Cheng Hao was quite calm. Lin Yuxun was a little unhappy when he heard Galton say that Cheng Hao couldn't box, for fear that Cheng Hao would be sad.
But Galton was his partner, so he gave Galton some face and didn't say anything. He just changed the juice he was going to give them to water.
"Only water?" Galton was a little dissatisfied.
"This is a hospital, there is only water." Lin Yuxun said.
"Okay." Galton took it a little depressed, but he didn't doubt anything.
Lin Yuxun is a very generous person when he is in a good mood. For example, when they need a computer, he immediately buys the best one. But he is also very stingy when he is in a bad mood. He usually eats the cheapest set meal. Not only that, he doesn't even drink coffee, but boiled water.
I think he really lived a poor life in the past.
Galton took a sip of water. When he couldn't see Cheng Hao, he would tell others how good Cheng Hao was at boxing, but now that he saw him, he felt embarrassed to say so. He just stood aside like a pillar, and signaled the people who followed him with his eyes, asking them to go and talk.
Those who followed were all from Lin Yuxun's company.
Whenever they worked on projects before, Lin Yuxun always led them and told them how to do it.
In fact, most of them are older than Lin Yuxun, but they are not as good as Lin Yuxun in computers... Of course, if they were really better than Lin Yuxun, they would not follow Lin Yuxun to work.
Lin Yuxun has been away recently, so their efficiency has been particularly poor. This time, on the one hand, they came to see Lin Yuxun's "brother", and on the other hand, they also wanted to ask Lin Yuxun when he would go back.
"Cheng will be discharged from the hospital in a few days, and I will go back then." Lin Yuxun said.
"We've encountered some trouble in recent days..." someone else said.
"Tell me about it." Lin Yuxun said.
These people came to see Lin Yuxun and even brought a laptop with them. They turned it on and started asking questions.
Laptops at that time were very thick and heavy, and you had to literally "move" them.
Cheng Hao couldn't understand what Lin Yuxun and the others were discussing, and neither could Galton... either.
Although they attended the same university, Galton's major was completely different from these people's - he studied liberal arts.
"Do you want to eat something?" Galton looked at Cheng Hao.
"Yes, the food you brought is delicious." Cheng Hao said.
"Really, you actually like to eat such unhealthy things!" Galton looked disdainful and handed the box he brought to Cheng Hao.
Galton bought a pizza.
After Cheng Hao traveled through time, he ate countless hamburgers, but not much pizza. By chance, he had never eaten pizza from Pizza Hut.
He usually buys cheaper pizza from the supermarket.
Recently, Cheng Hao has been eating the relatively light and nutritious meals provided by the hospital. The food Arabella brought him was also very light. He hasn't eaten delicious food for a long time. The pizza in front of him should have been newly bought. It was hot and exuded a rich aroma.
Cheng Hao took a bite and found it tasted very good. At least it was much better than what he bought in the supermarket before, and it also had a lot more ingredients.
Cheng Hao ate several pieces in a short while.
Lin Yuxun noticed this and looked at Cheng Hao: "Do you like pizza?"
Cheng Hao said, "This pizza is quite delicious, with lots of ingredients. I've never eaten anything like this before."
"I'll buy some for you next time." Lin Yuxun said.
"No, this shouldn't be cheap." Cheng Hao said.
What Cheng Hao and Lin Yuxun were talking about was a common conversation between them, but Galton curled his lips when he heard it.
This pizza is super cheap, and this one is too expensive. Is it really necessary? Lin Yuxun is not making any money now!
Cheng Yanqi, who was standing at the door, felt even more sad when he heard it.
The voice of the person speaking was different from the voice of his son in his memory, but it gave him a familiar feeling.
Maybe that really was his son.
His son can't even afford a pizza?
Cheng Yanqi was a little afraid to go in.
"Cheng is inside, why don't you go in?" The reporter who followed them went to the toilet after arriving at the hospital and fell behind Cheng Yanqi and the others. He came over now and looked at Cheng Yanqi with some curiosity.
Cheng Yanqi didn't say anything, he went in directly: "Hi, Cheng, long time no see."
Cheng Hao had met this reporter several times. He stood up from his hospital bed and said with a smile, "Hello, Mr. Ateli."
"Cheng, I didn't expect you still remember me. By the way, I brought two people today, and they want to ask you to shoot an advertisement!" said reporter Atri.
When Cheng Hao heard what Atterly said, he looked up at the door that Atterly pointed to, and then saw Cheng Yanqi. He was stunned, and the memories of the original owner Cheng Jinhao, which he rarely remembered, came back to him.
The original owner, Cheng Jinhao, was once a child doted on by his parents.
So many of his memories are related to his parents.
His parents accompanied him in learning painting and taught him to play the piano, allowing him to grow up little by little into a noble little prince.
However, when he was thirteen or fourteen years old and about to enter his rebellious period, his mother fell ill and died.
The child was very sad because his mother suddenly passed away. At this time, his father actually abandoned him and left.
Cheng Hao could see the child's anger just by looking at his memory.
He felt betrayed by his father.
Later, when he had a hard time, this feeling became stronger, but then it disappeared again.
Someone told him that his father had lost contact since he went to Europe and was most likely dead.
Only the boy himself knew how desperate he felt when his mother had passed away and his father was missing, and might even be dead.
It is also because of this that Cheng Hao never thought of contacting the Cheng family after traveling through time.
The original owner, Cheng Jinhao, was deliberately led astray by the Cheng family. He was sent to the United States and chosen to attend such a poor school. In the end, he was stabbed, and his parents were not around... Contacting the Cheng family, isn't this courting death?
And he is not Cheng Jinhao.
If Mr. Cheng could be contacted, he should be properly accommodated, but he is not Cheng Jinhao.
Cheng Jinhao is already dead, and he is not interested in anything related to the Cheng family. In this case, he can't just go to the Cheng family and ask them to support him, right?
So, from the very beginning, Cheng Hao forgot everything about the Cheng family, but as a result... he actually met Cheng Yanqi.
Cheng Yanqi's appearance was quite different from what Cheng Jinhao remembered. He looked much older and thinner, but Cheng Hao recognized him at a glance. This was Cheng Yanqi.
Cheng Hao didn't know what to do for a moment.
Cheng Hao's expression was a little weird.
Seeing him like this, Cheng Yanqi was filled with joy, but then his heart sank suddenly.
He knew that the young man in front of him was his son.
The child who was very close to him had grown up in the blink of an eye.
"Jinhao...Jinhao..." Cheng Yanqi said, his voice a little choked.
Cheng Hao didn't know what to say for a moment.
He could deny it, but there was no doubt that this body was Cheng Jinhao.
But if he admitted it directly... he would feel a little awkward, and it would be difficult for him to lie to Cheng Yanqi.
Cheng Yanqi spoke in Chinese, and many people present had no idea what he was saying. Reporter Atterly saw him choking up and assumed he was just a little sad to see his idol injured. He immediately said to Cheng Hao, "Cheng, this gentleman is your fan. He likes you very much."
Galton also asked, "Are you a fan of Cheng?"
Cheng Yanqi didn't say anything. Cheng Hao's silent attitude made him feel a little uncomfortable.
Cheng Yanqi's friends had already confirmed from Cheng Yanqi's attitude that the boxer in front of them was the son Cheng Yanqi had been looking for for several years. They immediately said in English: "We are not fans, this is Cheng's father."
As he spoke, he pointed at Cheng Yanqi.
Galton and the reporter were stunned, and Lin Yuxun froze completely.
Cheng Hao never talked about his parents, saying that he no longer had a home, so he subconsciously ignored Cheng Hao's family.
He knew very well that if Cheng Hao had parents and family, they might not always be by his side.
Therefore, he was willing to believe that Cheng Hao no longer had any family.
But now, someone appeared and said that he was Cheng Hao's father.
Lin Yuxun's gaze fell on Cheng Yanqi, and a sense of crisis rose from the bottom of his heart.
He has been studying in college for the past two years, met many people, and seen the life of the upper class. The dress of the man in front of him is obviously not ordinary.
The watch he was wearing was of an expensive brand.
This is a rich man.
Cheng Hao's father is very rich. Can Cheng Hao still be with him in the future?
Lin Yuxun's face turned ugly, but Gao Dun seemed to have suddenly realized something: "Cheng, you said you ran away from home, it turns out it's true!"
Galton has always believed that Cheng Hao ran away from home for his boxing dream. Now that it is confirmed, he admires Cheng Hao even more, and of course feels very sorry for him.
Cheng Hao was shot and can no longer fight.
But it’s also good to go home now... Galton’s vision is much better than Lin Yuxun’s. He can tell the price of Cheng Yanqi’s clothes at a glance.
The clothes are not particularly expensive, but they are pretty good and are the choice of many business people. As for the watch, it will cost at least $50,000.
Cheng Hao actually left such a home, worked hard on his own, and even made it so that he couldn't even afford pizza from Pizza Hut... It's really admirable!
Galton admired Cheng Hao very much. When Cheng Yanqi's friends heard what Galton said, they were very dissatisfied with Cheng Hao: "How could you run away from home? Do you know how much effort your father has put in to find you these years?"
Cheng Yanqi's friend's words were accusatory. Cheng Yanqi had spent years searching for his child, yet where was the child? He was apparently fine, yet he hadn't contacted his family.
"Sir, please don't jump to conclusions without knowing the specific situation." Cheng Hao looked at Cheng Yanqi's friend.
His words were not very polite, and Cheng Yanqi's friend was very unhappy: "How can you talk like that? You..."
Cheng Yanqi interrupted his friend: "Old Li, don't talk about him."
The friend surnamed Li looked at Cheng Yanqi disapprovingly: "Old Cheng, you are going to spoil the child!"
"No..." Cheng Yanqi's eyes were full of sadness.
Cheng Hao had already made up his mind at this time and said immediately: "Mr. Cheng, I want to talk to you alone."
The three words "Mr. Cheng" could be said to be a knife in Cheng Yanqi's heart. He said, "Okay."
Cheng Yanqi's friends couldn't accept it: "What are you talking about, kid?"
Cheng Hao said, "Mr. Cheng, can you let him out? Yu Xun, you two should go out first."
Hearing Cheng Hao's words, Lin Yuxun stood up and was about to take Gao Dun and the others out. Cheng Yanqi also looked at his friend: "Lao Li, I want to talk to him alone."
In the end, the people in the ward left one by one.
After those people left, Cheng Yanqi looked at Cheng Hao cautiously: "What do you want to talk to me about?"
Cheng Yanqi's attitude is a bit humble.
Cheng Hao thought about it and decided to explain for the original owner, Cheng Jinhao: "Cheng Jinhao didn't run away from home. He was forcibly sent to the United States. After arriving here, the couple he stayed with were not only drug addicts, but also domestic abusers. The school they found for him was also a poor public school in a poor community. Few students studied hard."
Cheng Hao’s statement was very strange. He didn’t say “I” but “Cheng Jinhao”.
But Cheng Yanqi didn't have time to pay attention to this at the moment.
After hearing Cheng Hao's next words, his face turned pale.
He had never found out what happened to his son after he arrived in the United States.
Now hearing what Cheng Hao said...
A drug-addicted and violent host family, a chaotic school...what will a teenager become in such an environment?
Before, Cheng Yanqi only guessed that someone wanted to deal with his son, but now he has confirmed it.
His family clearly wanted to kill his son.
"He later ran away from his foster home and was stabbed several times. The person was targeting him, but after he came to the United States, he didn't cause anyone to want to kill him," Cheng Hao added.
Cheng Yanqi's face turned ashen, his body swayed, and he almost fell down.
His son's meaning was very clear. The person who stabbed him was targeting him and was most likely from the Cheng family.
Cheng Yanqi was a little unhappy when his son called him "Mr. Cheng" before, but now... in this situation, no matter what his son calls him, it is normal.
"It's Dad's fault..." Cheng Yanqi seemed to have aged a lot in an instant.
"Mr. Cheng," Cheng Hao said again, "I'm not Cheng Jinhao."
Cheng Yanqi was stunned when he heard Cheng Hao's words: "What did you say?"
Cheng Hao said, "I said I'm not Cheng Jinhao... After being stabbed several times, Cheng Jinhao died. I am Cheng Hao."
"What nonsense are you talking about? It's impossible that I can't even recognize my own son." Cheng Yanqi said.
Cheng Hao lifted up his hospital gown, revealing a stab wound on his stomach. His body had a strong ability to recover, but the scar remained. "This is where I was stabbed. Cheng Jinhao was already dead by then. I am Cheng Hao, a completely different person."
"I know you're angry, but..."
Cheng Hao said: "I'm not angry, because those are not my experiences. I chose to talk to you alone because I want to tell you that I am really not Cheng Jinhao. I have no feelings for you or the Cheng family, so I will not go back. You can forget me."
Cheng Hao wanted to say that he had traveled through time, but after thinking about it, he decided not to say it.
If he said that, no one knew what would happen to him.
He didn't want to be sent for research or killed at all.
But he couldn't be as kind and filial as Cheng Yan, and didn't want to get any benefits that the Cheng family might give him.
What's more, the original owner of this body is really dead. No matter what, if possible, he hopes that Cheng Yanqi can help the original owner to get revenge, rather than not bothering with the murderer in the end while he is still alive.
Cheng Hao was very calm when he said this.
When Cheng Yanqi looked at him, he felt a chill spreading from his chest to his whole body, making his body stiff and unable to move.
He was sure that the person in front of him was his son, but his son clearly no longer regarded him as his father and seemed like a completely different person.
He had personally taught his son for more than ten years. If he encountered such a situation, he might get angry and quarrel with him, but not like this.
Did he hurt his son's heart and cause his personality to change drastically, or was it something else?
Cheng Yanqi suddenly thought of the "second personality".
Could it be that his son had encountered life and death and thus developed a second personality?
After a while, Cheng Yanqi felt that he could control his body again: "Jinhao, Dad was wrong. Dad shouldn't have abandoned you. Don't worry, I will definitely help you get revenge, but please don't do this..."
It's really uncomfortable to see Cheng Yanqi like this.
Cheng Hao said, "I'm really not Cheng Jinhao, I'm Cheng Hao. I have nothing to do with the Cheng family, so you don't have to treat me as your son... Let me tell you this, I won't be going back to the Cheng family. I have my own life now, and I have a boyfriend. You don't have to worry about me or give me anything in the future. Of course, if you need my care when you're old, I will."
After all, this body belongs to Cheng Jinhao, and Cheng Yanqi is his father. If Cheng Yanqi needs help or care, Cheng Hao is willing to help.
Cheng Hao spoke sincerely, but Cheng Yanqi heard something that was hard for him to accept: "Boyfriend?" Is that what he meant?
