Chapter 5: Meeting Again and Working Together to Save People
Zhou Cheng returned to Mincheng the next day and told his parents that the hospital had a sudden mission and canceled the dinner with Xiao Han.
Zhou Cheng is also reflecting on whether his social circle is really too small. He has few friends, or even no friends at all, but he really doesn't want to socialize. Work already consumes all his energy every day, and he can't imagine socializing again.
After returning home, he took his skis and prepared to go out to get them repaired, but after thinking about it, he decided that even if they were repaired, they would be useless, so he put them back. Seeing that the spotlight specially equipped for skis made the cracks more obvious, he turned off the light in frustration.
At the ski resort, Su Qingyan was fussed over and fussed over by the person in charge, who insisted on sending him to the hospital for a checkup and then finding him to apologize. Su Qingyan felt both actions were unnecessary; after all, he always took revenge on the spot and didn't like hindsight. He simply didn't expect the seemingly gentle and refined guy to be so skilled in fighting; it was obvious he'd been systematically trained.
Finally getting rid of the fussy person in charge, he left the resort immediately. His mission had been successfully completed and there was no need to continue to dwell on it.
After Su Qingyan returned to Mincheng, he was dragged to a cocktail party. Handsome, intelligent, and second-generation rich people like him were always welcome. To attract these young and old, the brand had invited many celebrities to join them. Mr. Su was also very considerate and bought a few limited-edition watches. Afterward, he was drunk and driven home by the driver.
"Why did you send me here?" Su Qingyan opened his eyes in a daze and asked the driver in confusion.
"The master said he wanted to see you."
Su Qingyan sighed helplessly and got out of the car resignedly.
"Boss Su, you can't exploit me like this. I just helped you negotiate this project, and now I'm busy building relationships with those young masters. Now you won't let me get a good night's sleep?" Su Qingyan slumped on the sofa with his feet on the coffee table.
"You are not helping me, you are helping yourself." Director Su walked over and patted his leg, asking him to take his leg down.
"Where's my mother?" Su Qingyan asked, putting down his legs.
"They should be in New Zealand now." Director Su's mouth twitched. This mother and son are exactly the same. They both like to travel around the world.
"Why did you ask me to come back?" Su Qingyan felt a little discouraged when she heard that her mother was not at home.
"There's a project in Mincheng, please follow up on it."
"Again." Su Qingyan collapsed on the sofa after hearing this.
"It's not in vain that I asked you to make those friends. Go and put them to use." Director Su tapped his head.
"I've even sold my body. It's so hard to fit into this circle." Su Qingyan covered his head.
"What are you selling?" Director Su was helpless with him. He was ambitious, but he always wanted to go out and have fun. He was idle, but he could actually do something.
"Let me rest, Dad."
“You work for a few days and then you have to rest again.”
The project that Mr. Su gave him was related to medical devices, which was impossible to get without background.
The Su family originated in the south, only recently moving north to Mincheng. However, Mincheng is a very exclusive city, with capital concentrated in the hands of a few groups. The sudden emergence of the Su family was a bit too conspicuous. The Jiang family, a radical within the conservative faction, didn't reject the Su family, but rather embraced them. With the Su family's unwavering support, they've prospered in recent years, poised to dominate.
As soon as Su Qingyan returned to China, he hung out with the second young master of the Jiang family, who was of similar age, and they got along like brothers.
Brothers to outsiders.
"Cigarette." Su Qingyan was lying on the bed, his chest heaving violently, his breathing still not steady, and he spoke to Jiang Xingyao in a slightly hoarse tone.
The hypocritical young master's temper was revealed once again.
Jiang Xingyao looked at him with his eyes slightly closed and a lazy look, so he went to the bedside and took a cigarette and handed it to him. Seeing that he didn't even raise his hand, he put it in his mouth and lit it.
Su Qingyan's eyes were filled with lust, her lips turned up, and after taking a deep breath, she put her arms around Jiang Xingyao's neck, pulled him in front of her, kissed him hard, and passed the cigarette into his mouth.
Seeing Jiang Xingyao choking and coughing uncontrollably, he laughed so hard that his body shook.
"I must build a swimming pool with a 3-meter platform in the company." Su Qingyan was driving a limited edition olive green Audi and was stuck in traffic.
"Mr. Su is really rich." Jiang Xingyao, who was sitting in the passenger seat, was not in a hurry.
"Young Master Jiang is mocking me again." Su Qingyan tapped his fingers on the steering wheel and turned to look outside bored. A young man with deep eyes was looking at them on a huge billboard. "This little star of your company is quite famous now. You can see him everywhere."
"In this industry, anyone can become famous if they want them to. Boss Su is my cash cow, and I have several dramas waiting for Boss Su's investment." Jiang Xingyao followed his gaze and looked at the billboard, thinking that his expression was really fake. Su Qingyan was even prettier than him.
"What's so great about him that you praise him?" Su Qingyan turned around and met Jiang Xingyao's inquiring gaze on him.
"You'll know when you try it one day." Jiang Xingyao didn't continue the topic after saying, "We don't know how long this traffic jam will last, so let's just find a gym nearby." As he said that, he started searching on the map.
Zhou Cheng went to his usual gym, hoping to let out some of the frustration he'd been holding onto lately. Following a strict regimen of strength training followed by cardio, he went to the pool after a frantic weightlifting session. His long-standing fitness routine had kept him in great shape, and the weightlifting had swelled his muscles. The moment he appeared in the pool, he was the center of attention. Ignoring the glances, Zhou Cheng donned his goggles and jumped in.
I had just swam two laps when I heard a heated argument next to me.
Zhou Cheng ignored it at first, but when the quarrel grew louder, he stopped and turned to look.
A burly middle-aged man in his 40s was pointing at a young girl's nose and cursing her. He was waving his hands and making splashes in the swimming pool. There were a few people watching nearby.
Zhou Cheng swam over slowly and took in the general idea. The girl said that the middle-aged man kept swimming with her, always pretending to touch her accidentally. She couldn't stand it anymore and said a few words to him, but the middle-aged man cursed her back.
Zhou Cheng looked at the middle-aged man with contempt, and when he saw the security guard walking towards him, he swam away again.
The middle-aged man saw the security guard approaching, and he became even more furious. He shouted that he would call the police and sue her for defamation, and he pushed the girl hard. The security guard was surprised by his physical attack, and the onlookers cried out in shock, and the scene immediately became chaotic. The girl must have been very angry, and after being pushed, she kept sinking to the bottom of the water. Everyone scrambled to rescue her, but the middle-aged man refused to give up, chasing her and even trying to attack her. Zhou Cheng saw that even the security guard didn't dare to approach the middle-aged man, and he was speechless for a while. He swam over quickly and knocked him down in a few strokes.
While they were all paying attention to the dispute, no one noticed that a child of seven or eight years old was swimming over from the shallow water out of curiosity, and was then bumped by someone who was joining in the fun and fell headfirst into the water.
"I came here and watched a show for free. This is something you can't see in the gym we usually go to." Jiang Xingyao put his arm on Su Qingyan's shoulder and watched with interest. "That guy is quite skilled. He can even have such explosive power underwater."
Su Qingyan was in a state of disinterest. He disliked such a mixed crowd, and he couldn't understand how a pampered young master like Jiang Xingyao could be so worldly. While he was distracted, he suddenly noticed a small figure standing still by the swimming pool for a long time. He thought something was wrong and rushed over immediately.
As soon as I reached the pool, I saw a slender, muscular figure swimming towards me like a fish. His smooth muscles were even more eye-catching under the shimmering water. He quickly picked up the child, supported himself with one hand, and jumped out of the pool. After quickly assessing the child's condition, he immediately began CPR.
After completing one cycle, he raised his head and said anxiously to Su Qingyan who was standing next to him: "Bring the AED over here." After that, he started a new round of cardiopulmonary resuscitation.
Su Qingyan sprang into action, thankful he'd carefully observed the terrain and equipment while distracted. He handed the AED to Zhou Cheng and watched as he defibrillated the child, who finally coughed. The entire process took less than three minutes. Only after the child's heartbeat and breathing had resumed did anyone notice the abnormality.
Zhou Cheng breathed a sigh of relief, shook his hands and stood up, then felt a dull pain in his knee. He didn't know who had thrown the can pull ring on the ground, and his knee was bleeding from being rubbed.
Su Qingyan looked at his bleeding knee and shuddered secretly.
How painful this must be.
He remains calm when racing, skydiving, diving and bungee jumping, but he really can't stand the sight of blood.
Su Qingyan looked at the knees of the unknown hero and asked if he was okay, and a familiar face came into his sight.
"The problem with this side of your face is not that serious." Zhou Cheng said this and left.
Su Qingyan was speechless for a long time until Jiang Xingyao came over and patted him on the shoulder.
"How could I be so obsessed?"
"He's the one who fought with me at the resort yesterday." Su Qingyan saw the sports watch forgotten on the ground and picked it up.
"Then you must be bragging. You must have had a lot of helpers when you beat him up."
Su Qingyan looked at the cracked watch screen without saying a word.
