Chapter 101: Missing someone is a chronic poison
Although Kyoto appears calm on the surface these days, the situation is already turbulent in secret, with various forces becoming restless, as if the tree wants to be still but the wind does not stop.
Wei Wei stood on top of the palace, the tallest building in Kyoto, looking down upon the entire city with cold eyes. A faint smell of blood wafted in the wind.
Guyu: "Governor, Chen Gan is deeply saddened by the loss of his son and is determined to find the real culprit."
"Well, have him investigate and shift his target to the son of Hu Xuan, the commander of the Imperial Guards."
Hu Xuan?
Guyu knew what to do. Hu Xuan's son was an out-and-out playboy. Relying on his father's official position and his sister being a favorite concubine in the harem, he committed rape and looting and committed all kinds of evil in Kyoto. Moreover, Hu Xuan's son and Chen Gan's son had a dispute over a brothel girl not long ago.
Thinking about it this way, I'm afraid that the brothel girl was also arranged by Wei Wei.
Wei Yan took every step carefully, eliminating the officials who had been involved in the Wei case, and took advantage of the situation to replace the people in various confidential positions in the court and promoted Xiao Chengying's people.
Guyu couldn't help but worry, "Dugong, if it succeeds, then I'll retire. If it doesn't..."
Wei Wei slowly raised his gaze and stared at the bright star in the distance, feeling melancholy and leisurely.
It cannot be impossible, but it must be possible.
Even if he dies, he will drag everyone down with him.
"On the Lantern Festival, you personally led people to escort my sister out of Kyoto."
Guyu was startled. "Sir, please let Xiazhi go. I will stay with you in Kyoto."
If he was sent away, it would mean that he would not have to come back, but he had to come back. Kyoto was full of dangers, and Wei Wei was all alone. How could he feel at ease?
Guyu didn't hear any response for a long time. He looked up quietly and saw that Wei Wei seemed not to hear him. He raised his hand and gently stroked the bracelet on his wrist. A hint of warmth would occasionally appear between his cold brows.
Guyu has been serving Wei Wei for many years, and he has never seen Wei Wei wear any extra jewelry, especially this bracelet. He has never taken it off since Wei Wei came back, and he always wears it when he sleeps.
"I'm relieved if you go."
Guyu had no choice but to lower his head and said, "...Yes."
Wei Wei stroked the name with his fingertips. When they could see each other every day, he didn't feel the pain of missing her. He could even boast that time could dilute everything.
But only after separation did I realize that longing is a chronic poison that penetrates the heart and eats at the marrow.
…
Since the filming of Zhao Guanjun's drama was completed, there has been no news about Zhou Youlan and Wei Wei in the circle, including Zhou Youlan's agent and assistant.
Zhang Longtong had just returned home after work when he saw the house full of wine bottles and the smell of cigarettes. It was a mess with no place to step, and he couldn't help but feel overwhelmed.
Some time ago, Zhou Youling found him at his door and forced him to tell him the whereabouts of Wei Wei.
He thought Zhou Youlan would come find him, but how could he know where Wei Wei was! ?
One day Wei Wei suddenly found him, handed him his cell phone, and told him not to do anything else but to deal with Zhou Youxuan and chat with him every day.
He just needed to pretend to be Wei Wei and reply to Zhou Youlan's message. Zhang Longtong was very puzzled, but he had no way to refuse Wei Wei, because Wei Wei had saved his life.
As far as he could remember, that was the time when Wei Wei spoke to him the most, but most of what he talked about was about Zhou Youlan.
He also asked Wei Wei why he did this, but Wei Wei only told him that he could lie as long as he could, and nothing else.
He really did something bad during the time he was chatting with Zhou Youxuan. If he talked too much, his character would be ruined, but if he didn't talk, Zhou Youxuan would be persistent. In order to hide it from Zhou Youxuan, he almost signed up for an acting training class.
Who would have thought that he would be caught by Zhou Youguan in less than two months after he persisted every day with anxiety.
Zhou Youxuan asked him where Wei Wei had gone. How did he know? Wei Wei didn't tell him when he left!
But Zhou Youlan just stayed in his house and refused to leave, claiming that he would stay until the day Wei Wei came back.
Zhang Longtong didn't care. After all, he had more opportunities since he appeared on the variety show. He was very busy with work and didn't have much time to rest.
He was just worried about Zhou Youlan.
Ever since the day Zhou Youlan discovered the truth, he has been asking people everywhere to find Wei Wei, but there has been no news.
Wei Wei seemed to have suddenly disappeared from the world, leaving nothing behind, not even a trace.
Gradually, Zhou Youlan seemed to have lost his soul. He didn't want to work and didn't show up for activities. He felt like all the energy had been drained out of him. He became confused and dazed. Then he began to drink to drown his sorrows. He got drunk every day and stayed in the house without going out.
He didn't know what happened between Zhou Youguan and Wei Wei, but one thing was clear: Wei Wei really left.
This way of leaving without saying goodbye was very hurtful. Even he, as a friend, felt uncomfortable, not to mention the relationship between Zhou Youlan and Wei Wei.
Zhang Longtong sighed and poured a glass of warm water over, "Brother Zhou, have a drink."
Zhou Youguan was so drunk that he couldn't tell the difference between day and night.
He pressed his exploding head, the pain stimulating his nerves, even his face throbbing. He'd been drinking heavily lately, like he was soaking in a jar of beer; his breath reeked of alcohol.
"Ah..." Zhang Longtong sighed distressedly, "Brother Zhou, if you miss Brother Wei, why don't you cheer up and go find him? You said you stay in this dark room every day and get drunk, but you can't get Brother Wei to come out."
Zhou Youguan's eyes were dazed, and he seemed to be coming back to his senses little by little. Zhang Longzong spoke for a long time before he seemed to react. He moved slowly and changed his posture to lean against the sofa.
Zhang Longtong felt that this scene had a huge impact. He was used to seeing Zhou Youguan's glamorous appearance on the screen, and he had also seen him being a domineering and arrogant young man in private. Now he was so decadent that he looked like a monster. It was heartbreaking to see him.
"Brother, I know you're sad, but you must want to know more about Brother Wei's whereabouts. If you continue to be depressed like this, Brother Wei won't come back. You might as well use your energy to find someone."
"I think Brother Wei must have his own difficulties, otherwise he wouldn't leave without saying goodbye."
Zhou Youxuan smiled bitterly: "I know."
Of course he knew Wei Wei's difficulties, and he had expected this day to come, but this way of parting was the most unacceptable to him.
He thought that Wei Wei would say goodbye to him at least.
Don’t you know how painful it will be for him to leave without saying goodbye like this?
"I can't find it." Zhou Youxuan twitched his lips, tears welling in his eyes, "I can never find it again."
It was because he couldn't find it that he was so miserable.
"You haven't even looked properly, so how do you know you can't find him?" Zhang Longtong pushed the wine bottle on the ground and sat down. "You have to understand why Brother Wei left. Why did he leave without saying goodbye? The fact that he can come here proves that he has a background. With your ability, or even your father's ability, how can finding someone be that difficult?"
Zhou Youguan suddenly regained consciousness from his daze and listened to Zhang Longtong continue, "Although it's really difficult to find someone like looking for a needle in a haystack, it's still in our hands. Going out and looking for someone is more meaningful than sitting here lamenting the passing of time."
Zhou Youlan seemed to be unable to hear the following words, and Zhang Longtong's voice became a voice-over, becoming increasingly vague.
Zhang Longtong's words woke him up. If Wei Wei could come here, why couldn't he go find Wei Wei?
It's not impossible.
As Zhou Youxuan thought about it, his mind became clearer.
He remembered that Zhou Yueli seemed to have a laboratory that specialized in conducting some fantastic experiments. He wondered if he could provide any clues?
Zhou Youguan hurriedly got up as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw, but he was drunk for a long time and because he had not eaten properly for a long time, he became very thin and his legs were shaking. Fortunately, Zhang Longtong helped him up and prevented him from falling to the ground in embarrassment.
"Brother Zhou, Brother Zhou, what are you doing?"
"My cell phone, where is my cell phone?" Zhou Youguan looked everywhere for it. There were wine bottles everywhere under his feet, so he couldn't see his cell phone.
Zhang Longtong helped him sit on the sofa and said, "Don't worry, don't worry, I'll find it for you."
The curtains in the house were all drawn, and Zhang Longtong only turned on the street light at the door. Suddenly, he pulled open the curtains, and the light from outside poured in instantly. The sudden brightness made Zhou Youlan, who had been in darkness for a long time, unable to adapt for a while.
Zhang Langtong called Zhou Youxing, and the phone rang under the sofa. The two of them hurried to find it.
Big Monkey rushed over after receiving the call. He knew that Zhou Youxuan was drinking all day because of Wei Wei's injury. Zhou Youxuan was just such a stubborn person. Once he got serious, no one could persuade him to change his mind. He would only kill himself if he hit the wall, and no one could persuade him.
He was too lazy to persuade her.
Growing up with Zhou Youxuan, he knew Zhou Youxuan's temper best. Wei Wei had really hurt Zhou Youxuan badly this time, and he probably wouldn't recover.
"Go find the old man."
The big monkey slammed on the brakes and asked, "What do you want to see the master for? You don't think the master has hidden Wei Wei, do you?"
"I've checked, and it has nothing to do with you, sir. Wei Wei hasn't had much contact with you either."
"No, I want to ask him something else."
The big monkey glanced him up and down, "Then you should at least clean yourself up. Look in the mirror and see what you look like now. Your beard is untidy and you look like a homeless person. Can't you smell the stench on you? It stinks to death."
Zhou Youguan said nothing, just stared at him coldly.
"Okay, okay, I'll shut up and send you to the company to see the gentleman now."
Zhou Yueli hadn't seen Zhou Youlan for a long time. The last time they met, Zhou Youlan came to question him whether he had hidden Wei Wei. Zhou Yueli scolded him, and the father and son parted unhappily.
Seeing Zhou Youguan looking like a sloppy drunk, Zhou Yueli was stunned for a long time.
"Do you have a lab dedicated to conducting random experiments that defy scientific logic?"
Zhou Yueli's worried and distressed expression suddenly turned cold. "You rushed to the company to find me, drunk and disheveled, just to ask this?"
He knew why Zhou Youlan had become like this, and that was why he couldn't let Zhou Youlan get deeper into trouble.
"Otherwise, what else can I say to you?"
"Then stop talking. You're so emotional. Why don't you stay home and have a good rest to adjust your mood?"
Zhou Youguan said patiently: "I want to go and take a look."
Zhou Yueli sat down in his office chair calmly and snorted, "Is this how you'd approach begging your father?"
"This is the attitude of the Zhou family, which has been passed down for nine generations."
