He Xiangdi died on the day of the first snow.
Xiao Wanjun heard that he died on a deserted island, with chains on his feet, and the room was filled with a strong smell of vodka.
The day after Shi Xi passed away.
He died a gruesome death, his entire body engulfed in flames, unable to save himself, nor showing any intention of doing so.
He left only one sentence: "Until we meet again."
Everyone who heard the news and attended the funeral said—
He did this because he couldn't accept the death of his friend.
Xiao Wanjun did not attend his funeral, but instead went to Shi Xi's funeral.
Even though the first snow had just fallen, it started raining, a continuous, fine, and bone-chilling rain.
Xiao Wanjun looked at Shi Xi's photo on the tombstone, his smile as gentle as ever.
Standing at the front was Qin Huaixi. Seemingly noticing him, the other person stared at him for a moment before walking towards him.
"...He had been nagging me to drink milk tea."
"I found out later." Qin Huaixi said calmly, reaching out to catch a raindrop from the sky. "That ginger, goji berry, and brown sugar milk tea with three-tenths sugar was your favorite."
"I lost that bet." Qin Huaixi looked at Xiao Wanjun. "Xiao Wanjun, he loves you more than you think."
"I will keep my promise. As long as I am here, the Qin Group and Jiang Sheng Construction will become a community of shared interests."
Xiao Wanjun looked bewildered, his head buzzing. Before he could sort out his thoughts, a man dressed in elite attire walked towards him.
"Mr. Xiao, this is something President Jiang asked me to give you."
The moment Xiao Wanjun saw what it was, she felt her world spinning.
It's a share transfer agreement for Jiang Sheng Construction. As long as he passes away, the entire Jiang Sheng Construction will belong to him.
\"Ha ha……\"
Xiao Wanjun laughed, his fingers gripping the document so tightly that his fingertips turned white.
He had been worried for so long that Jiang Feng would choose Jiang Sheng Construction over him, but he never expected that Jiang Feng had already given Jiang Sheng Construction to him.
"President Jiang left a message: if he were to pass away one day, he hoped you would take good care of his father."
"Also, don't be sad."
After saying this, Attorney Zhang saw the other party clutch his chest, vomit blood, and then faint.
Attorney Zhang hurriedly took the person to the hospital, and looked at Xiao Wanjun.
Xiao Wanjun didn't look at him. He lay on the hospital bed, staring blankly at the ceiling, seemingly lost in thought.
After an unknown amount of time, as if finally coming to her senses, Xiao Wanjun suddenly looked at Attorney Zhang and asked, "How exactly did he die?"
Attorney Zhang shook his head. "I don't know either."
Xiao Wanjun's expression changed, and she was about to get out of bed to ask Qin Huaixi for an answer when her phone beeped with a message notification.
It was a message sent by Qin Huaixi.
The other party sent a compressed file.
Qin Huaixi: This is the truth.
Xiao Wanjun was stunned for a long time after reading it, and it took him a while to recover before he opened his phone.
The lock screen wallpaper is of Shi Xi, a photo taken when Shi Xi and he went to the beach.
Xiao Wanjun gently stroked Shi Xi's face in the photo.
"...He promised me he would go see my movie with me."
"We agreed to buy a bucket of popcorn." Xiao Wanjun turned to look at Attorney Zhang. "You have no idea, I did some really bad things to him, and said some really bad things."
"The damn one is clearly me."
When Attorney Zhang saw his ashen face, she was immediately alarmed and quickly tried to persuade him.
"...Mr. Xiao, I know you're very upset right now, but since President Jiang has entrusted Jiang Sheng Construction and Mr. Jiang to you, don't let him down."
Xiao Wanjun was stunned for a moment because he suddenly noticed something in the photo that he had never paid attention to before.
He frantically opened his photo album, zoomed in and zoomed in on the picture again and again, and finally saw the contents of the phone Shi Xi was holding.
It's a group chat called "Protecting the Best Junjun in the World".
"Where's his phone?" Xiao Wanjun looked at Attorney Zhang with a look of urgency.
"Here it is." Attorney Zhang handed it to Xiao Wanjun, puzzled.
The phone required a password, and Xiao Wanjun tried Shi Xi's birthday, but it was incorrect.
He tried checking the establishment date of Jiang Sheng Construction again, but it was still incorrect.
Xiao Wanjun paused, stunned for a few seconds, before typing her birthday with trembling hands.
The phone unlocked successfully the next second.
Xiao Wanjun's heart, which was already numb with pain, was pierced again.
In a panic, I found the group chat and accidentally clicked on a chat box. The other person immediately replied to my message.
【Walking with You: Group Admin, you're finally back! I've been waiting for you for so long (﹡???﹡)?】
Xiao Wanjun took a deep breath and opened the group chat.
Then Xiao Wanjun fell seriously ill and stayed in the hospital for a full month.
When "Awakening of Insects" was shown, Xiao Wanjun bought two tickets and a large bucket of popcorn, and watched the whole thing with a gentle expression.
He said to the empty chair, "I've brought you to see a movie."
He Luoluo hesitated for a moment, then finally just sighed.
When he won the Best Actor award nine times, he wore a lotus-patterned gemstone brooch on his chest.
He casually announced his retirement from the entertainment industry.
Qin Huaixi watched the television broadcast and gently stroked the same brooch in his hand.
"You didn't even give me this."
...
After Xiao Wanjun stepped off the stage, He Luoluo looked at him and said, "Brother Xiao, Lin Zeran... is dead."
"I heard he wore two ski suits, one white and one black, and threw snowballs at the top of the mountain..."
"Mmm." Xiao Wanjun's eyelashes trembled slightly, her eyes filled with envy.
He also wanted to find the treasure.
...
Fifteen years later, Jiang Fuhai passed away.
After Xiao Wanjun finished arranging his funeral, she glanced at Jin Chen, who was present.
The other party also withdrew from the entertainment industry when he announced his retirement and took over the Jin family business.
With the help of the Qin Group and several other companies, Jiang Sheng Construction has grown at an incredible pace.
Today, it has surpassed the Qin Group and become the undisputed leader in the business world.
"Honey, did you see that? Jiang Sheng Construction is already incredibly strong."
\"sorry.\"
As Qin Huaixi turned to leave, Xiao Wanjun suddenly spoke—
"I can't go on like this."
Qin Huaixi looked at Shi Xi's tombstone.
"Then go find him."
He couldn't hold on any longer.
The two went their separate ways.
Qin Huaixi died even earlier than him; it was said that the other man committed suicide by stabbing himself with a knife.
Xiao Wanjun breathed a sigh of relief, then gave a bitter laugh, "I understand."
This is how Shi Xi died.
Seeing his reaction, the assistant pursed his lips and finally closed the villa door.
Xiao Wanjun swallowed a bottle of sleeping pills, clutching the brooch Shi Xi had given him, and lay quietly on the bed, waiting for it all to end.
"...Baby...I'm here..."
On his deathbed, he saw that familiar figure.
