Chapter 15 All Conspiracies Fear the Light
While she was still wandering with her mobile phone, another call came in. She saw that the number belonged to Zhang Yan, and immediately told Du Yuwen to wait a moment, then hung up Du Yuwen's call, and answered Zhang Yan's.
Zhang Yan has always been straightforward, and immediately asked, "Do you know about Weibo?"
Lin Mei replied in a daze, "I just watched it."
Regardless of whether she was in a good state or not, Zhang Yan directly ordered: "Immediately make a brief summary and tell Xiuran, let him come up with countermeasures."
Lin Mei quickly agreed.
Now there is only Su Xiuran in the ward. Su Xiuyan answered the phone just now and went out. Lin Mei recalled that his expression suddenly changed after receiving the call, and then he hurried out, and he hasn't come back yet.At that time, she thought it was an emergency in the company, but now she realized that it might also be because of this.
The lights in the ward had been dimmed, and Su Xiuran was lying on the bed with his eyes closed.Hearing Lin Mei's footsteps approaching, he opened his eyes and smiled at her.
Lin Mei sat down on the sofa in front of the bed, sorted out her thoughts a bit, took a light breath, and told him that he and Su Xiuyan had been photographed secretly and that the photos had been spread on the Internet.
Su Xiuran only pondered for a while, and then said in a calm tone: "Since the photos have been leaked out, there is no way to completely destroy them. You inform Du Yuwen, and I will issue a short statement through Xingwen's official blog."
Lin Mei nodded in agreement. She took it for granted that Su Xiuran was going to release a text statement, and just as she took out her phone to type it down, she saw him slightly curling his lips: "I want to release a video statement."
Lin Mei was taken aback, and looked at him in shock: "You want to show your face?"
Su Xiuran's smile was a little helpless: "The matter has come to this point, I can no longer hide my appearance and identity, so it's better to deal with it more simply." He raised his hand and said to Lin Mei, "Raise the bed higher, and help me change my clothes. Pack your clothes."
Lin Mei understood, and went to get the shirt to help him change.Even if Su Xiuran was hospitalized, he insisted on shaving every day. Lin Mei had nothing else to do next, but just helped him trim his slightly long hair with his hands.
After taking care of her, she moved her hand to look at it, and said with a sigh: "I finally understand why some people can be photographed at any time. They are born too good and don't need too much modification."
Su Xiuran looked at her with thin white lips, and smiled silently: "Stop saying so many beautiful words, it's important."
He seemed reluctant to sit up, but now that he straightened his waist, it was naturally even more uncomfortable.Lin Mei quickly adjusted the angle and light, and started shooting.
Fortunately, what he wanted to say was very short, and he succeeded after recording it once. Su Xiuran lay down again and watched the replay, then said: "Let's hand it over to Du Yuwen, let him do whatever he wants with the text part."
Lin Mei conveyed Su Xiuran's meaning, and Du Yuwen really filled in the text at will, and the content of the Weibo text was: "Sunshine" set a new sales record in one month after its release, thank you readers for your support, click Open the video and there will be a surprise from Su Xiu!
When it was finished, it was accompanied by a promotional poster of "Twilight", which is really a bookseller's true colors. At this juncture, I still don't forget to use the official blog to show cuteness and advertise.
The video is very short, only a few tens of seconds.In the picture, the young man in a white shirt first smiled at the camera, and then said in a gentle and deep voice: "Hello, everyone, I am Su Xiu. There is a long way to go, and we will share our encouragement with you."
With such a short video, the Internet quickly exploded. Not only the number of retweets of this Weibo is refreshing every second, but the number of fans of Xingwen Books' official Weibo is also increasing sharply.
The reaction of the crowd was varied. The first to appear were Su Xiu's die-hard book fans. Most of these people had followed the official Weibo of Xingwen Books, so they were able to see this video at the first time.
Most of the fans' reactions were: Is it really Su Xiu?Are you sure it's me?My God, I actually saw Su Xiu alive in my lifetime!
After the praise of book fans, all kinds of strange passers-by and spectators gradually began to appear.
Among them is a comment with a high number of likes: Such a stunning beauty has written the bible of stalkers, an immortal masterpiece of darkness.Beauty, when you were a stalker, didn't you get followed by the idiots you met on the road?No, the point should be that you are so beautiful, you don't need to follow others at all!I just want to ask, do you still need a bed warmer at home?
There is also a comment that many people like: I said back then that Su Xiu was definitely not short, poor and ugly, but no one believed me.So stupid mortals like you just can't understand the truth!In "A Woman Worthy of Me", the author substitutes not the hero but the heroine, okay?With this appearance, he must be irritated by being followed to write such a book to vent his anger, right?
One netizen had the same reaction as Lin Mei: I only thought the phrase "a woman worthy of me" was too narcissistic, and I couldn't imagine what the author would have to grow up to have the courage to say such a thing.Today, I can finally imagine it, with a great look and excellent skills, this is my knee, please accept it.
Then the term "sex and art" caters to the psychology of the masses, and the following reposts all contain the words "sex and art".
Of course there are also doubts: Is this really the Soviet revisionist?It's funny, even book writers are following the hype route these days.Where did you find this third-rate starlet outfit?
This comment was quickly refuted: Dear, don’t come out to make a fool of yourself if you are ignorant, please go and listen to the recording of the XX Award winning speech that year, it’s obviously a person, okay?In addition, the Soviet revisionists still need hype?I really want to haha.
Someone else said: The hot topic next door just came out, and now people don’t read the popular Weibo anymore?Said that if you can get the boss of Shenyue Group to hype me up, I will also be convinced. I think the big god made a statement after being hurt by the revelations.
It's no wonder the crowd was so excited, Lin Mei had been with Su Xiuran for a long time and gradually became immune, but she did not forget the surprise she felt when she first saw him.
Nowadays, there are quite a few men with exquisite looks, but Lin Mei, who is so exquisite, has only seen such one in his life, not to mention Su Xiuran's temperament is gentle, but there is an awe-inspiring look in his bones, which is definitely not the popular one. "Flower Boy" is soft and powdery.And that incomparably magnetic voice, after being transmitted through the radio waves, one could hear people's bones crumbling every minute.
Lin Mei used her mobile phone to scan all kinds of comments, and she couldn't care less about the traffic, and she was full of thoughts: This world is crazy!
She suddenly remembered the other person involved, so she quickly raised her head and asked Su Xiuran: "Where is your brother? You don't talk about how to deal with it first? Is it difficult to explain to your company?"
The true face of Su Xiu can be regarded as gossip, but the "resurrection" of the former chairman of Shenyue Group is not a simple matter that can be laughed off, but a major event that can easily cause a chain reaction.
Su Xiuran said lightly: "It's okay, he knows what to do."
It didn't take long for Su Xiuyan to return to the ward. He walked in and nodded to Su Xiuran. Lin Mei didn't see any glances between them, but it was obvious that a tacit understanding had been reached.
Su Xiuyan said, "I notified the PR department to issue an urgent statement." He paused and said, "A press conference will be held in City B in three days."
Su Xiuran said "Yes" and reminded: "The press conference should be as soon as possible. Three days is enough for those with ulterior motives to do a lot of actions."
Su Xiuyan also understood this truth, his jaw tightened obviously, and then he said: "No matter how urgent you are, you have to wait until your body recovers." He gritted his teeth, with a bit of coldness, "I have already Instruct the legal department to organize materials to sue the blind reporter, and hope that he is ready to pay compensation to the point of bankruptcy."
Su Xiuran said calmly: "This reporter is not the one who started the crime, and he can be asked to hand over the source of the clues."
Lin Mei thought of the series of designs in the past few days. Even a dull person can feel that all these malicious directions are Su Xiuran, as if someone hiding in the dark has carefully woven a big net.The center of this big net is Su Xiuran, whether it is Su Xiuyan or the little reporter who made a mess, they are all pawns to be manipulated.
Su Xiuyan obviously realized that he was being used by others, and he was full of gloomy hostility.
Su Xiuran saw his depression, and said gently: "Don't get confused, you go back today and have a good rest, if you can't sleep, take sleeping pills."
Su Xiuyan didn't answer, and got up to leave. Before he left, Su Xiuran added another sentence: "Don't drink, pay attention to the dosage of sleeping pills."
Su Xiuyan paused, and replied reluctantly: "Understood."
In the next few days, Lin Mei checked Weibo from time to time to check the latest trends in public opinion, but she was smart enough not to disturb Su Xiuran who was recuperating.
On that night, Shenyue Group publicly released a statement to the media. In the statement, it first affirmed the news that Su Xiuran was still alive, and then said that because Su Xiuran was still hospitalized due to illness, details would be released in three days. It was further revealed in the press conference that in the end, he still did not forget to condemn the reporter's candid filming behavior, and expressed that he reserved the right to prosecute.
After that, someone began to leave a message under the official blog of Xingwen Books, saying: I said why I think the face of the great god is a little pale, and the background of the video looks like a hospital. It turns out that he is really hospitalized.I feel that the reporter is a bit unkind. He took advantage of the fire and forced the master to make a video to clarify when he was sick.
This comment was recognized by many people, so they went to the reporter's Weibo to condemn his behavior of disturbing others regardless of time and place.
The reporter probably received the lawyer's letter, and quickly deleted his Weibo. In the next few days, there was no follow-up to attract the attention of the public. From the perspective of public opinion, the incident has generally subsided.
But in Su Xiuyan's place, it was obviously not that simple. He flew back to City S that night, and spent the next two or three days over there suppressing doubts from shareholders and subordinates.
Although he is busy, he will make a call every day to ask about Su Xiuran's situation.
Su Xiuran needs to ensure a rest time. Lin Mei has been holding his mobile phone these days. Every time Su Xiuyan calls, Lin Mei picks it up first. He is familiar with the back and forth, and Lin Mei speaks to him much more gently. .
It wasn't until three days later that Lin Mei realized that Su Xiuran had been in the hospital for the past few days, and his mother hadn't come to visit him, but she hadn't even called.
Three days is enough time for many things to happen. Zhang Yan has asked people to check the surveillance video of the public hospital, and found no suspicious person from the video.
With Zhang Yan's ability, of course he would not ignore the clues that appeared on the screen, so it is very likely that the manipulator knew the location of the hospital's surveillance cameras very well, and completed the work by using the blind spots that could not be captured.
As for the little reporter who caused trouble, not only was Su Xiuyan issued a lawyer's letter, but Zhang Yan also called him to the criminal police team for interrogation, and he confessed the whole process with regret.
It was because he received an anonymous email saying that there was a clue downstairs in the inpatient department of the municipal hospital. He was suffering from no news points, so he immediately came with a camera. When he waited for a long time and thought he found nothing, he discovered the degree of public opinion. Quite a high level of Su Xiuyan.
Surprised, he took a lot of pictures of Su Xiuyan and Su Xiuran talking together, because Su Xiuyan and Su Xiuran's actions were relatively close at one time, he thought he had smashed some "secret lover" or something, After all, the concept of love is now free, and Su Xiuyan has maintained his status as a golden bachelor for many years, without even the slightest scandal, and it is not surprising to have a same-sex lover.
He also regretted that he didn't get more hot shots of Su Xiuyan and Su Xiuran, such as kissing and hugging... After all, when Su Xiuyan hugged Su Xiuran later, it was obviously because the other party was unwell and needed first aid.
When he rushed to report to the agency to release the news, he received a second anonymous email. The person who sent the email seemed to know that he had taken photos of Su Xiuran and Su Xiuyan, and told him that the second person present was Su Xiuyan." The late "brother Su Xiuran, and Su Xiuran also has the identity of the popular best-selling author "Su Xiu".
This is much more reliable than any non-existent "same-sex lover". The reporter searched Xia Su Xiuran's photos from eight years ago, and immediately confirmed that the one he took was indeed the "deceased" former president of Shenyue Group. He was so excited , I couldn't wait to post the news in the newspaper the next day, so I paid a little attention to the wording, and couldn't wait to announce the news on Weibo.
Zhang Yan asked the technicians to check his e-mail account. As expected, the person who sent the anonymous e-mail was quite smart, and it was impossible to trace back the account information and IP address.
The clues are interrupted here again, not to say that the methods used by the other party are so clever, but that every time the other party's actions seem to be innocuous "fueling the flames".
If there were no contradictions and misunderstandings between Su Xiuyan and Su Xiuran over the years, if it were not for knowing the crux of the relationship between Su Xiuyan and Su Xiuran - the death of Wen Jingyue that year, then a phone call to provoke discord would not have caused Su Xiuyan He stabbed Su Xiuran uncontrollably.
If Su Xiuran hadn't known about Su Xiuran's recovery, the other party wouldn't have been able to accurately mix anticoagulants into his medicine to make his injury relapse.
The other party even knew that Su Xiuyan came to visit Su Xiuran, and also knew that the two brothers might go downstairs to have a heart-to-heart talk, so they arranged for the little reporter as a pawn.
The scary thing about this opponent is that he or she is quite clear about Su Xiuran's past and present every move. This kind of pervasive penetration makes people feel the most chilling and disgusting.
Lin Mei tried to use the sensitivity she had cultivated these days to think about the cause and effect, and discovered a rather frightening fact: Even if the other party used various means to cause some harm to Su Xiuran, he still did not seriously violate the law.
A phone call with false information?It was Su Xiuyan who accidentally stabbed someone, not him.
Added anticoagulant to Su Xiuran's medicine?Anticoagulants are not expressly prohibited poisons, but ordinary medical drugs.Besides, the infusion supplies are all disposable. When Su Xiuran relapsed, those used needles had already been taken back.As long as he doesn't admit it, they don't have a fingerprint to prove that he added it.
Inform the reporter to stay on guard?Not to mention, even if privacy is violated, it is the little reporter who needs to face compensation.
That is, even if they catch this guy, there's not even a way to prosecute him.
Just thinking about it, Lin Mei felt... at a loss for clues, and her head was battered.
The greatest luck was probably that Su Xiuran didn't mind this. When everyone was a little confused, he still took medicine and rested as usual, and even asked Lin Mei to bring him a few books from home.
These days, he is more interested in plants, and all he reads are herbal atlases, and he is in a good mood to copy some of them into his notebook.
Three days passed in a flash. At ten o'clock this morning, the press conference of Shenyue Group was held in a hotel affiliated to Shenyue Group in the west district of City B.
Su Xiuran, who was picked up by Su Xiuyan himself, drove to the hotel. After arriving at the hotel, he walked through the special passage in the underground garage reserved for the hotel's internal executives, followed by a few bodyguards in black who followed him all the way.
Su Xiuyan protected Su Xiuran very tightly, until Su Xiuran sat on the podium, no one could get close to him.
Lin Mei also sat on the podium, her identity was of course not a girlfriend, but a representative of Xingwen Books. She had prepared a lot of speeches in advance, and after sitting down, she faced the shining guns and microphones in front of her, silently and I recited the words again.
The first person to speak was the competent male press spokesman of Shenyue Group. His speech was as serious and brief as at the group annual report conference. It is out of respect for Mr. Su Xiuran's own choice that Shenyue Group announced the news of his "death" to the public; Mr. Su Xiuran and Mr. Su Xiuyan have a very good relationship, and the brotherhood is as deep as one. No unnecessary guesswork is required.
Su Xiuyan is the same as before when he appeared on the scene today, wearing a dark suit, with a stern face and knife-like eyes, but anyone who is careful and knows him well can see that he is in a particularly gloomy mood today.
With his expression, after listening to the customary statement, the media will certainly not let him go. Immediately, a reporter asked: "Mr. Su Xiuyan, why did your brother choose to announce that he was 'dead'? I don't think anyone No one wants to be seen as a 'dead' in the public eye."
Su Xiuyan fixed his eyes on him. He has always acted vigorously and vigorously. When he looked at people seriously, he was very oppressive. Even the experienced reporter shrank slightly.
Su Xiuyan looked at him and said in a deep voice: "I strongly opposed my brother's decision at the beginning. But my brother's physical condition was very bad at that time. If you have known the situation back then, you must know that at that time my brother could almost Said it was at stake. I was heartbroken that my brother had to let me announce his 'death', but I was even more unwilling to go against his will... At that time, no matter what my brother asked me to do for him, I would try my best to help him do it."
What he said was very painful, coupled with his slightly gloomy expression, it seemed that people could personally experience his helplessness and pain.
Of course, that reporter had done a lot of homework before he dared to be the first bird. Facing Su Xiuyan's gaze, he asked bravely: "I did check a lot of materials back then. At that time, Mr. Su Xiuyan had not only just suffered the death of his father, Pain, and also experienced the blow of girlfriend’s suicide?”
The reporter originally planned to pursue "girlfriend suicide" as a doubtful point that was not so harmonious between the brothers, but in the end, under Su Xiuyan's strong and painful eyes, he changed his words and threw it out lightly.
Su Xiuyan bent the corners of his lips extremely slightly, and in his resolute and sharp eyes, a little fleeting fragility was just right: "Yes, so I couldn't risk losing my brother at that time, even if I had to be in public. Losing him in front of my eyes...but I can still keep this family relationship in a place where no one can see."
Hearing this, Lin Mei looked at the eyes of some easily-impressed reporters who were already full of sympathy, and those who were more vulnerable simply burst into tears, thinking in her heart: This family is full of acting talents, right? , Entering the entertainment circle, there are two statuettes.
Seeing that they couldn't find anything on Su Xiuyan's side, the reporters quickly turned their attention to Su Xiuran who was sitting beside him with a quiet smile.
After all, compared with Su Xiuyan, who is powerful and notoriously difficult, Su Xiuran, who is wearing a light-colored suit and always has a quiet smile on his lips, looks a little more manageable.
So a sweet-looking female reporter stood up and asked: "Since Mr. Su Xiuyan said so, then I would like to ask Mr. Su Xiuran, what were your considerations before you let your family announce that you have 'died'? Know that it's going to be emotionally difficult for your family."
Su Xiuran first smiled slightly, his smile was very gentle, and his eyes were vaguely tender, which made the female reporter's heart tremble, and she almost apologized for her rude words.
Then he opened his mouth softly, and the deep and gentle voice came out through the speaker, which was a bit more intoxicating and full-bodied: "I thought that life didn't just have a beginning. The life at that time was a burden to me at that time. When I was dead, I am now born."
When he said this, he paused for a moment, with a relieved smile on his lips, before continuing: "I am grateful for the support from my mother and younger brother, even if they don't fully understand. I also thank them for their support over the years. protection, so that I will not have to face such a superficial and rude torture like today."
Not a single word in what he said was specifically aimed at the female reporter, but he belittled her to a "superficial and rude" situation, but his tone and expression were so gentle and gentle, like whispering in a lover's ear .
The female reporter was stunned for a moment before realizing that she had not only been refuted, but also scolded politely. She wanted to say something more, and raised her head to meet Su Xiuran's gaze, hoping to find something in it. There were some traces of his rudeness and rudeness, but his eyes were still extremely warm, even with a hint of pity.
Lin Mei looked at the female reporter with a flushed face, and thought: This is a comprehensive crushing of IQ and EQ, if you don't want to lose your temper further, just admit it and don't struggle.
Among the reporters present, there were many quick-witted and first-class people. After a brief silence, other reporters immediately took the right to ask questions: "We only found out in the past few days that Mr. Su Xiuran is the great god of 'Suxiu'. You are a fan of yours. Could you please satisfy my little fan’s request and tell us about your creative process? And the news of your next new book! I have read "Sunset" three times, and I can’t wait to read it See your next work!"
This topic became much easier, and there was a warm atmosphere immediately, and there were even good-natured laughter.
Su Xiuran replied with a more gentle smile: "My creative process was just when I realized that Shenyue could have another excellent leader, but there is only one Su Xiu in this world...so I That's it."
Although in creation, every creator can be said to be unique, but when others say this sentence, it may be regarded as arrogant by secular standards, but he deserves his name.
As a person who has repeatedly created records in the literary world, "Su Xiu" is destined to be included in the annals of literary history. It is natural to say that there is no doubt about it.
Su Xiuran turned his gaze to Lin Mei beside him, and said with a smile: "As for the news of my next work, the beautiful lady next to me is my responsible editor, you can ask her for more information .”
Lin Mei, who was named, was refreshed. She is not a bumpkin who has never seen the world, is she?Not to mention the company's other public events, during Su Xiuran's reclusive life, she hosted the "Twilight" new book launch.But even if she faced more media and a higher level, she could still handle it.
Compared to the two great gods next to him who would hold a gun and a stick to make people unable to get off the stage at any time when they spoke, Lin Mei, who was not aggressive at first glance, was of course much easier to get close to.
In addition, the reporters present were all invited by Shenyue, and they were reminded by their respective leaders in advance that they were here to cheer. Don't tear down the stage casually. Seeing the obvious "don't talk too much" attitude of the two Su family brothers, they are naturally happy to share The conversation turned to the innocuous "new book."
So the following interviews and questions were almost dedicated to Lin Mei and Xingwen Books, which she represented behind her.
Lin Mei pulled herself together and tried to make jokes. Not only did she want to promote the company, but she also had to pretend to be confident, revealing that the so-called "new book" was clearly still in Su Xiuran's mind, and she hadn't even read a hair——
It will definitely continue the consistent style!There will be an element of love too!
plot?The plot is top secret and cannot be revealed.
theme?The subject matter is also top secret and cannot be disclosed. You know that there are too many people imitating Soviet revisionism.
Will there be a new book launch?There will definitely be. Will Su Xiu continue to attend?Look at the enthusiasm of the readers, if the enthusiasm is enough, we will open a few hours of interactive signings, interaction!
The press conference was originally scheduled for one hour, but Lin Mei lasted for more than half an hour alone, which was quite a struggle.
In any case, the press conference ended in a warm and joyful atmosphere. Su Xiuyan was obviously a little impatient. After his press spokesman finished his closing speech, he stood up and bowed slightly to the audience, and then turned sideways to help Su Xiu Then pull out the chair.
After Su Xiuran got up, as if he was afraid that he would not be able to stand still, he gently supported his arm, and said in a low voice, "Be careful."
Since then, he has been raising his arms lightly in front of Su Xiuran, with a look of caring, for fear that others will touch his precious brother.
Lin Mei looked at such a scene of "brothers and brothers respecting each other", silently considering how much "acting" was involved in it.
Sure enough, when he got backstage, Su Xiuyan immediately let go of Su Xiuran's arm, and turned to look at Lin Mei as if nothing had happened: "You're doing pretty well."
Lin Mei smiled politely: "It's nothing, I can't just slap President Su."
These days, Su Xiuyan has gotten used to her flaring her teeth and paws at her to provoke her when she is bored. Su Xiuran spoils her, so it's not shameful that he can't move.
The owner over there raised his hand and stroked her head lightly, with a soft smile on his lips: "Xiaomei, don't always bully Xiuyan."
"Xiao Mei" was changed by Su Xiuran in the past two days. The reason was that the two of them were bored in the ward. Lin Mei suddenly remembered something and said to him: "You call your brother Xiu Yan, how can you even call me?" What about first and last names?"
Su Xiuran smiled and said, "What do you want me to call you?"
Lin Mei thought about it for a long time, "Sister" is too nasty, let alone "Meier", I feel a chill when I think about it, "Xiao Lin" is called by everyone, "Xiao Linzi" is both like a eunuch and reminds people of that A famous martial arts figure, so I can only say: "My parents call me 'Xiaomei'."
It was the "Little Eyebrow" who she had carefully selected and ordered Su Xiuran to change his words. Su Xiuyan obviously felt that it was too nasty. After hearing Su Xiuran's shout, both of them were "blind". expression.
Although Su Xiuran didn't show it, but according to his current physical condition, he must be tired after bumping back and forth and sitting for an hour.Su Xiuyan didn't say any more, took his bodyguards and drove Su Xiuran back to the hospital.After that, he didn't stay there, and said to Su Xiuran, "Contact anytime if necessary", and left first.
He took away two bodyguards, and the remaining four bodyguards were left here three days ago. It is said that he hired a top security company, and all of them are retired special forces elites.
For the chief envoy hiding in the dark who doesn't know what to do, these bodyguards certainly can't completely eliminate the danger, but they can also serve as a slight deterrent, at least to make that person dare not do it directly.
It has to be said that both Su Xiuyan's and Su Xiuran's thinking patterns are the same: if necessary, first choose the simplest and most effective solution.
Stomach bleeding has always been a painful and grueling disease, because of previous repetitions, even though it was confirmed that the bleeding did not continue, Su Xiuran was still not allowed to eat, even liquid food was forbidden, and he could only rely on infusions to maintain nutrition every day, and his physical strength was natural Not supported.
He could barely support himself at the press conference and in front of Su Xiuyan, and when he returned to the ward, he needed Lin Mei to help him change his clothes.
Helping him to lie down on the bed, Lin Mei knew that he was not feeling well at the moment when he saw the frown between his brows unintentionally, so she sighed and said: "Speaking of which, you brothers are too easy to be provoked, your brother will go crazy when he goes crazy. , Why do you hit hard when you come up, even if you hit you twice, it won't make you lie in the hospital for so long."
Su Xiuran responded lightly: "Xiuyan has been a little impulsive since he was a child, let alone drank a lot that day."
He didn't mean to excuse Su Xiuyan when he spoke, this Lin Mei understood, it was only after he said this that Lin Mei remembered that what happened that day was so sudden that she later ignored the suit that Su Xiuyan was carrying when he rushed in Strong smell of alcohol.
It is not surprising that a person who has been deeply resentful and cursed towards his elder brother for many years will act impulsively under the double stimulation of drunkenness and knots. He was driving drunk that night, and it is lucky that he did not have an accident on the road.
She ignored this detail, and Zhang Yan and Yu Qizhen would definitely not ignore it. Even if they didn’t detain him for deliberately hurting someone that night, they could use the name of drunk driving, but they didn’t do that. Zhang Yanzhen sold him and was still rescuing him Su Xiuran, whose life and death are uncertain, has a big face.
Seeing Lin Mei's pensive expression, Su Xiuran smiled and said, "At present, there are too few clues, and thinking is easy to reach a deadlock. Don't bother too much. Just wait for the other party's next move and reveal new flaws."
Lin Mei nodded knowingly, couldn't help but leaned over and kissed his pale cheeks and lips lightly, leaned beside him and whispered: "This man dares to hurt the man I love, I will not let him go. "
She was suddenly full of arrogance, Su Xiuran pursed her lips and smiled, raised her hand to stroke her long hair that fell from her temples: "Okay, first of all, thank you for your love."
Su Xiuran said that he would wait for the other party's further actions, but in the end he received a somewhat inexplicable "gift", or a declaration of war?
Lin Mei didn't know how to understand it. It was a bouquet of flowers sent by a florist. It was wrapped in a delicate green sandpaper gift box. After opening, there was a bouquet of white bellflowers and a hand-painted card.
Being able to be sent to Su Xiuran's ward must have been checked by the bodyguards, and there will be no problem, but Lin Mei felt that the card was a little strange.
With a few strokes on the screen, a cherry blossom with colorful petals is outlined. Different from ordinary paintings, the petals of the cherry blossoms in this painting are all blood red. The texture and color of those red petals gave her a strange feeling a feeling of.
She wanted to hold the card in front of her eyes for a closer look, but Su Xiuran gently covered it with her hand: "Don't read it, it was drawn with blood."
It was only then that Lin Mei realized that those petals did look different from ordinary paints. Of course, the amount of blood on the card was not much, but even so, this card gave people an indescribable feeling.
Lin Mei frowned and said, "Whose blood is too disgusting."
Su Xiuran smiled, his face is still pale these days: "Probably mine."
Lin Mei was startled, and subconsciously leaned over to hug him, Su Xiuran was a little surprised by this sudden hug, and patted her on the shoulder: "What's wrong?"
Lin Mei couldn't say why, anyway, when she knew that someone was targeting Su Xiuran and might hurt him, she would always be in danger.
She is different from Su Xiuyan, in Su Xiuyan's mind, Su Xiuran seems to be so powerful that he can do anything, but in her opinion, Su Xiuran is more vulnerable than ordinary people.
Maybe it's because she shouldered the responsibility of "taking care" of Su Xiuran from the very beginning, and his body did often have problems. At the earliest time, Su Xiuran was a precious and exquisite porcelain in her eyes, which needed to be scrubbed and cared for constantly. , Later, this kind of care became an instinct.
Moreover, she realized that she already regarded Su Xiuran as some kind of property. If she had to use a cheesy metaphor to describe it, it would be that Su Xiuran was already her heart. She has to fight hard.
No matter how well Su Xiuran understood human psychology, he couldn't guess that her intestines had twists and turns. He thought she was frightened, so he patted her on the shoulder and said comfortingly, "Don't be afraid, that blood volume It was small, and while I was in the hospital for surgery and later recovering, anyone who came close could take the opportunity to collect blood."
Lin Mei put her arms around his shoulders and hugged him tightly, put her chin on his shoulders, and remained silent for a long time with fierce eyes, before she said viciously: "Blood pays with blood."
Su Xiuran, who couldn't figure out her logic at the moment, could only laugh uncontrollably: "Little sister, where are you thinking?"
After the bouquet of flowers, the other party did not try to do anything else, and the blood on the card was later taken to the police station by Zhang Yan for testing, and as Su Xiuran expected, it was indeed his blood.
The next two weeks were quite peaceful, the invisible big hand in the dark seemed to be waiting for a new opportunity, and temporarily hibernated, and because Su Xiuran's body had not yet recovered, Zhang Yan did not bother him anymore.
They were able to temporarily resume their ordinary life before. Two weeks later, because Su Xiuran recovered well, they were discharged from the hospital to recuperate at home.
For Su Xiuran, who doesn't seem to be very picky about life, but is actually very picky, of course going home makes him more comfortable.
Especially now that Lin Mei was by his side almost [-]/[-], not even participating in the regular meeting of the editorial department on Monday, which seemed to mean that the king would not go to court early, which made him even more satisfied.
It's no wonder Lin Mei acted so boldly. The task Du Yuwen gave her now is to take good care of the company's cash cow. If there is a problem with the cash cow, she simply resigns.
Of course, she still has to find time to discuss the outline of the new book with Su Xiuran, who is very leisurely while recovering from illness. You must know that Su Xiuran's writing cycle is not long. A book of 20 words is enough for him to finish it in two months. The difficulty is that before The run-in of the outline.That's why Lin Mei was particularly anxious when his outline was lost, it was almost the crystallization of Su Xiuran's work in the past few months.
The outline of "Sunshine" was basically completed before she took over Liu Han's job, so this was the first time she had really experienced this process, and Lin Mei felt that she was about to be abandoned by Su Xiu in just a few days. Crazy.
He can really come up with an outline today, completely overturn it tomorrow and start over again, and on the third day, he returns to the idea of the first day... Multiplied by more than five times, and the cycle repeats.
You must know that he is a person with quick thinking and an amazing amount of information in one day. When solving a case, he often processed a huge amount of information by himself, and all the answers he got were concise and unique, which made the people who worked with him feel very impressed. Easy and clear.
But when it came time to write the book, he decided to let that pressure out.So he asked Lin Mei to remember the ideas he put forward every day, so that he could extract the "log" from her brain to sort out when necessary.
Lin Mei felt that she was no longer qualified to say that Liu Han's work was easy to do, and she also fully understood why Liu Han completely disappeared in the office once he entered the preparation period for the new book - just at Su Xiuran's house, his head was about to swell. It was so used that it exploded, so there was no life left to go to the office.
Du Yuwen should have expected this a long time ago, so he was extra tolerant to her, right?
What's even more hateful is that the function of Su Xiuran's poisonous tongue in the writing state is automatically triggered, completely losing the usual tenderness and consideration.
Even if she is his girlfriend now, he would be ruthless when he ridiculed her. When he saw her stuck, he would show a pitiful and down-looking smile, and said lightly: "Liu Han is indeed more useful than you."
Lin Mei resisted the urge to vomit blood, told herself over and over again to "be professional", and continued to keep up with his rhythm.
As a result, at night, she drank an extra bowl of porridge as if venting her anger, and he said coolly beside him: "Even if you try to gain weight, you can't increase your brain capacity."
At that time, with a trembling of her hand, she almost knocked the bowl onto his head—at this time, the ghost still remembered that he was her dear boyfriend, and she didn't have such a boyfriend!
I don't know if Su Xiuran realizes that he has been bullying Lin Mei a bit too much recently, and if he continues like this, he will suffer the consequences sooner or later.After dinner, not only did he lie on the bed in the bedroom and smiled softly at Lin Mei who brought the water, but he also lowered his eyes to show her his sky-long eyelashes.
It's a pity that a certain person was too self-inflicted, Lin Mei didn't buy his overtures at all, she just put the water glass on the bedside, piled up the pills to be taken after meals in his hands, and said calmly: "Take it!" medicine."
As a person with a top-notch EQ and IQ, Su Xiuran knew how to read words and expressions, and took the medicine obediently. Even if a large amount of medicine choked his throat, he only coughed softly a few times, and then continued to smile at her: "Xiaomei, I have a rather irritable temper when I work, so don't take it to heart."
She can understand the venomous tongue at work, and she doesn't want Su Xiuran to force her to change her habit in order to take care of her. It's just at dinner time... Then it's obviously outside working hours, okay?
Lin Mei looked at him from the corners of her eyes for a while, then suddenly leaned over and bit his thin lips that were still shining with water, biting with venting, let the breaths of each other mix together, and then she left him.
Stretching out her hand to touch his chin, Lin Mei forced him to look up at herself, and she was finally satisfied: "It's okay to lose your temper during the day, just make it up to me at night."
When she said "compensation", Su Xiuran's body stiffened suddenly, thinking he was not convinced, Lin Mei snorted again: "Why, do you have any opinions?"
She didn't look in the mirror, so she didn't see the faint blush on her face after the passionate kiss and anger, and her bright eyes were full of stars, shining brightly.
Su Xiuran's arms around her waist tightened involuntarily, and after a while, he smiled gently again, looked at her and said in a low voice, "How dare I."
His voice was tinged with hoarseness, and it came through softly. Lin Mei instinctively sensed something, pushed his arm away and sat up, blushing and ran away.
Su Xiuran watched her fleeing back with a smile, like a deer that accidentally ran into a hunter's trap, defenseless.
If Su Xiuyan saw this scene, he would definitely mock him, since he wanted her so much, why did he hesitate?It doesn't look like Su Xiuran's style at all.
Even Su Xiuran didn't expect that one day he would really worry about gains and losses for one person, and be careful like walking on eggshells, but he still felt that it was not enough.
Sometimes he would even think that if Lin Mei didn't have the courage to take the last step, maybe he would be like this forever... heart stained with honey, trapped in thorns.
So impatient, it seems that every day needs great endurance to support it, but it is still a kind of sweet suffering.
(End of this chapter)
While she was still wandering with her mobile phone, another call came in. She saw that the number belonged to Zhang Yan, and immediately told Du Yuwen to wait a moment, then hung up Du Yuwen's call, and answered Zhang Yan's.
Zhang Yan has always been straightforward, and immediately asked, "Do you know about Weibo?"
Lin Mei replied in a daze, "I just watched it."
Regardless of whether she was in a good state or not, Zhang Yan directly ordered: "Immediately make a brief summary and tell Xiuran, let him come up with countermeasures."
Lin Mei quickly agreed.
Now there is only Su Xiuran in the ward. Su Xiuyan answered the phone just now and went out. Lin Mei recalled that his expression suddenly changed after receiving the call, and then he hurried out, and he hasn't come back yet.At that time, she thought it was an emergency in the company, but now she realized that it might also be because of this.
The lights in the ward had been dimmed, and Su Xiuran was lying on the bed with his eyes closed.Hearing Lin Mei's footsteps approaching, he opened his eyes and smiled at her.
Lin Mei sat down on the sofa in front of the bed, sorted out her thoughts a bit, took a light breath, and told him that he and Su Xiuyan had been photographed secretly and that the photos had been spread on the Internet.
Su Xiuran only pondered for a while, and then said in a calm tone: "Since the photos have been leaked out, there is no way to completely destroy them. You inform Du Yuwen, and I will issue a short statement through Xingwen's official blog."
Lin Mei nodded in agreement. She took it for granted that Su Xiuran was going to release a text statement, and just as she took out her phone to type it down, she saw him slightly curling his lips: "I want to release a video statement."
Lin Mei was taken aback, and looked at him in shock: "You want to show your face?"
Su Xiuran's smile was a little helpless: "The matter has come to this point, I can no longer hide my appearance and identity, so it's better to deal with it more simply." He raised his hand and said to Lin Mei, "Raise the bed higher, and help me change my clothes. Pack your clothes."
Lin Mei understood, and went to get the shirt to help him change.Even if Su Xiuran was hospitalized, he insisted on shaving every day. Lin Mei had nothing else to do next, but just helped him trim his slightly long hair with his hands.
After taking care of her, she moved her hand to look at it, and said with a sigh: "I finally understand why some people can be photographed at any time. They are born too good and don't need too much modification."
Su Xiuran looked at her with thin white lips, and smiled silently: "Stop saying so many beautiful words, it's important."
He seemed reluctant to sit up, but now that he straightened his waist, it was naturally even more uncomfortable.Lin Mei quickly adjusted the angle and light, and started shooting.
Fortunately, what he wanted to say was very short, and he succeeded after recording it once. Su Xiuran lay down again and watched the replay, then said: "Let's hand it over to Du Yuwen, let him do whatever he wants with the text part."
Lin Mei conveyed Su Xiuran's meaning, and Du Yuwen really filled in the text at will, and the content of the Weibo text was: "Sunshine" set a new sales record in one month after its release, thank you readers for your support, click Open the video and there will be a surprise from Su Xiu!
When it was finished, it was accompanied by a promotional poster of "Twilight", which is really a bookseller's true colors. At this juncture, I still don't forget to use the official blog to show cuteness and advertise.
The video is very short, only a few tens of seconds.In the picture, the young man in a white shirt first smiled at the camera, and then said in a gentle and deep voice: "Hello, everyone, I am Su Xiu. There is a long way to go, and we will share our encouragement with you."
With such a short video, the Internet quickly exploded. Not only the number of retweets of this Weibo is refreshing every second, but the number of fans of Xingwen Books' official Weibo is also increasing sharply.
The reaction of the crowd was varied. The first to appear were Su Xiu's die-hard book fans. Most of these people had followed the official Weibo of Xingwen Books, so they were able to see this video at the first time.
Most of the fans' reactions were: Is it really Su Xiu?Are you sure it's me?My God, I actually saw Su Xiu alive in my lifetime!
After the praise of book fans, all kinds of strange passers-by and spectators gradually began to appear.
Among them is a comment with a high number of likes: Such a stunning beauty has written the bible of stalkers, an immortal masterpiece of darkness.Beauty, when you were a stalker, didn't you get followed by the idiots you met on the road?No, the point should be that you are so beautiful, you don't need to follow others at all!I just want to ask, do you still need a bed warmer at home?
There is also a comment that many people like: I said back then that Su Xiu was definitely not short, poor and ugly, but no one believed me.So stupid mortals like you just can't understand the truth!In "A Woman Worthy of Me", the author substitutes not the hero but the heroine, okay?With this appearance, he must be irritated by being followed to write such a book to vent his anger, right?
One netizen had the same reaction as Lin Mei: I only thought the phrase "a woman worthy of me" was too narcissistic, and I couldn't imagine what the author would have to grow up to have the courage to say such a thing.Today, I can finally imagine it, with a great look and excellent skills, this is my knee, please accept it.
Then the term "sex and art" caters to the psychology of the masses, and the following reposts all contain the words "sex and art".
Of course there are also doubts: Is this really the Soviet revisionist?It's funny, even book writers are following the hype route these days.Where did you find this third-rate starlet outfit?
This comment was quickly refuted: Dear, don’t come out to make a fool of yourself if you are ignorant, please go and listen to the recording of the XX Award winning speech that year, it’s obviously a person, okay?In addition, the Soviet revisionists still need hype?I really want to haha.
Someone else said: The hot topic next door just came out, and now people don’t read the popular Weibo anymore?Said that if you can get the boss of Shenyue Group to hype me up, I will also be convinced. I think the big god made a statement after being hurt by the revelations.
It's no wonder the crowd was so excited, Lin Mei had been with Su Xiuran for a long time and gradually became immune, but she did not forget the surprise she felt when she first saw him.
Nowadays, there are quite a few men with exquisite looks, but Lin Mei, who is so exquisite, has only seen such one in his life, not to mention Su Xiuran's temperament is gentle, but there is an awe-inspiring look in his bones, which is definitely not the popular one. "Flower Boy" is soft and powdery.And that incomparably magnetic voice, after being transmitted through the radio waves, one could hear people's bones crumbling every minute.
Lin Mei used her mobile phone to scan all kinds of comments, and she couldn't care less about the traffic, and she was full of thoughts: This world is crazy!
She suddenly remembered the other person involved, so she quickly raised her head and asked Su Xiuran: "Where is your brother? You don't talk about how to deal with it first? Is it difficult to explain to your company?"
The true face of Su Xiu can be regarded as gossip, but the "resurrection" of the former chairman of Shenyue Group is not a simple matter that can be laughed off, but a major event that can easily cause a chain reaction.
Su Xiuran said lightly: "It's okay, he knows what to do."
It didn't take long for Su Xiuyan to return to the ward. He walked in and nodded to Su Xiuran. Lin Mei didn't see any glances between them, but it was obvious that a tacit understanding had been reached.
Su Xiuyan said, "I notified the PR department to issue an urgent statement." He paused and said, "A press conference will be held in City B in three days."
Su Xiuran said "Yes" and reminded: "The press conference should be as soon as possible. Three days is enough for those with ulterior motives to do a lot of actions."
Su Xiuyan also understood this truth, his jaw tightened obviously, and then he said: "No matter how urgent you are, you have to wait until your body recovers." He gritted his teeth, with a bit of coldness, "I have already Instruct the legal department to organize materials to sue the blind reporter, and hope that he is ready to pay compensation to the point of bankruptcy."
Su Xiuran said calmly: "This reporter is not the one who started the crime, and he can be asked to hand over the source of the clues."
Lin Mei thought of the series of designs in the past few days. Even a dull person can feel that all these malicious directions are Su Xiuran, as if someone hiding in the dark has carefully woven a big net.The center of this big net is Su Xiuran, whether it is Su Xiuyan or the little reporter who made a mess, they are all pawns to be manipulated.
Su Xiuyan obviously realized that he was being used by others, and he was full of gloomy hostility.
Su Xiuran saw his depression, and said gently: "Don't get confused, you go back today and have a good rest, if you can't sleep, take sleeping pills."
Su Xiuyan didn't answer, and got up to leave. Before he left, Su Xiuran added another sentence: "Don't drink, pay attention to the dosage of sleeping pills."
Su Xiuyan paused, and replied reluctantly: "Understood."
In the next few days, Lin Mei checked Weibo from time to time to check the latest trends in public opinion, but she was smart enough not to disturb Su Xiuran who was recuperating.
On that night, Shenyue Group publicly released a statement to the media. In the statement, it first affirmed the news that Su Xiuran was still alive, and then said that because Su Xiuran was still hospitalized due to illness, details would be released in three days. It was further revealed in the press conference that in the end, he still did not forget to condemn the reporter's candid filming behavior, and expressed that he reserved the right to prosecute.
After that, someone began to leave a message under the official blog of Xingwen Books, saying: I said why I think the face of the great god is a little pale, and the background of the video looks like a hospital. It turns out that he is really hospitalized.I feel that the reporter is a bit unkind. He took advantage of the fire and forced the master to make a video to clarify when he was sick.
This comment was recognized by many people, so they went to the reporter's Weibo to condemn his behavior of disturbing others regardless of time and place.
The reporter probably received the lawyer's letter, and quickly deleted his Weibo. In the next few days, there was no follow-up to attract the attention of the public. From the perspective of public opinion, the incident has generally subsided.
But in Su Xiuyan's place, it was obviously not that simple. He flew back to City S that night, and spent the next two or three days over there suppressing doubts from shareholders and subordinates.
Although he is busy, he will make a call every day to ask about Su Xiuran's situation.
Su Xiuran needs to ensure a rest time. Lin Mei has been holding his mobile phone these days. Every time Su Xiuyan calls, Lin Mei picks it up first. He is familiar with the back and forth, and Lin Mei speaks to him much more gently. .
It wasn't until three days later that Lin Mei realized that Su Xiuran had been in the hospital for the past few days, and his mother hadn't come to visit him, but she hadn't even called.
Three days is enough time for many things to happen. Zhang Yan has asked people to check the surveillance video of the public hospital, and found no suspicious person from the video.
With Zhang Yan's ability, of course he would not ignore the clues that appeared on the screen, so it is very likely that the manipulator knew the location of the hospital's surveillance cameras very well, and completed the work by using the blind spots that could not be captured.
As for the little reporter who caused trouble, not only was Su Xiuyan issued a lawyer's letter, but Zhang Yan also called him to the criminal police team for interrogation, and he confessed the whole process with regret.
It was because he received an anonymous email saying that there was a clue downstairs in the inpatient department of the municipal hospital. He was suffering from no news points, so he immediately came with a camera. When he waited for a long time and thought he found nothing, he discovered the degree of public opinion. Quite a high level of Su Xiuyan.
Surprised, he took a lot of pictures of Su Xiuyan and Su Xiuran talking together, because Su Xiuyan and Su Xiuran's actions were relatively close at one time, he thought he had smashed some "secret lover" or something, After all, the concept of love is now free, and Su Xiuyan has maintained his status as a golden bachelor for many years, without even the slightest scandal, and it is not surprising to have a same-sex lover.
He also regretted that he didn't get more hot shots of Su Xiuyan and Su Xiuran, such as kissing and hugging... After all, when Su Xiuyan hugged Su Xiuran later, it was obviously because the other party was unwell and needed first aid.
When he rushed to report to the agency to release the news, he received a second anonymous email. The person who sent the email seemed to know that he had taken photos of Su Xiuran and Su Xiuyan, and told him that the second person present was Su Xiuyan." The late "brother Su Xiuran, and Su Xiuran also has the identity of the popular best-selling author "Su Xiu".
This is much more reliable than any non-existent "same-sex lover". The reporter searched Xia Su Xiuran's photos from eight years ago, and immediately confirmed that the one he took was indeed the "deceased" former president of Shenyue Group. He was so excited , I couldn't wait to post the news in the newspaper the next day, so I paid a little attention to the wording, and couldn't wait to announce the news on Weibo.
Zhang Yan asked the technicians to check his e-mail account. As expected, the person who sent the anonymous e-mail was quite smart, and it was impossible to trace back the account information and IP address.
The clues are interrupted here again, not to say that the methods used by the other party are so clever, but that every time the other party's actions seem to be innocuous "fueling the flames".
If there were no contradictions and misunderstandings between Su Xiuyan and Su Xiuran over the years, if it were not for knowing the crux of the relationship between Su Xiuyan and Su Xiuran - the death of Wen Jingyue that year, then a phone call to provoke discord would not have caused Su Xiuyan He stabbed Su Xiuran uncontrollably.
If Su Xiuran hadn't known about Su Xiuran's recovery, the other party wouldn't have been able to accurately mix anticoagulants into his medicine to make his injury relapse.
The other party even knew that Su Xiuyan came to visit Su Xiuran, and also knew that the two brothers might go downstairs to have a heart-to-heart talk, so they arranged for the little reporter as a pawn.
The scary thing about this opponent is that he or she is quite clear about Su Xiuran's past and present every move. This kind of pervasive penetration makes people feel the most chilling and disgusting.
Lin Mei tried to use the sensitivity she had cultivated these days to think about the cause and effect, and discovered a rather frightening fact: Even if the other party used various means to cause some harm to Su Xiuran, he still did not seriously violate the law.
A phone call with false information?It was Su Xiuyan who accidentally stabbed someone, not him.
Added anticoagulant to Su Xiuran's medicine?Anticoagulants are not expressly prohibited poisons, but ordinary medical drugs.Besides, the infusion supplies are all disposable. When Su Xiuran relapsed, those used needles had already been taken back.As long as he doesn't admit it, they don't have a fingerprint to prove that he added it.
Inform the reporter to stay on guard?Not to mention, even if privacy is violated, it is the little reporter who needs to face compensation.
That is, even if they catch this guy, there's not even a way to prosecute him.
Just thinking about it, Lin Mei felt... at a loss for clues, and her head was battered.
The greatest luck was probably that Su Xiuran didn't mind this. When everyone was a little confused, he still took medicine and rested as usual, and even asked Lin Mei to bring him a few books from home.
These days, he is more interested in plants, and all he reads are herbal atlases, and he is in a good mood to copy some of them into his notebook.
Three days passed in a flash. At ten o'clock this morning, the press conference of Shenyue Group was held in a hotel affiliated to Shenyue Group in the west district of City B.
Su Xiuran, who was picked up by Su Xiuyan himself, drove to the hotel. After arriving at the hotel, he walked through the special passage in the underground garage reserved for the hotel's internal executives, followed by a few bodyguards in black who followed him all the way.
Su Xiuyan protected Su Xiuran very tightly, until Su Xiuran sat on the podium, no one could get close to him.
Lin Mei also sat on the podium, her identity was of course not a girlfriend, but a representative of Xingwen Books. She had prepared a lot of speeches in advance, and after sitting down, she faced the shining guns and microphones in front of her, silently and I recited the words again.
The first person to speak was the competent male press spokesman of Shenyue Group. His speech was as serious and brief as at the group annual report conference. It is out of respect for Mr. Su Xiuran's own choice that Shenyue Group announced the news of his "death" to the public; Mr. Su Xiuran and Mr. Su Xiuyan have a very good relationship, and the brotherhood is as deep as one. No unnecessary guesswork is required.
Su Xiuyan is the same as before when he appeared on the scene today, wearing a dark suit, with a stern face and knife-like eyes, but anyone who is careful and knows him well can see that he is in a particularly gloomy mood today.
With his expression, after listening to the customary statement, the media will certainly not let him go. Immediately, a reporter asked: "Mr. Su Xiuyan, why did your brother choose to announce that he was 'dead'? I don't think anyone No one wants to be seen as a 'dead' in the public eye."
Su Xiuyan fixed his eyes on him. He has always acted vigorously and vigorously. When he looked at people seriously, he was very oppressive. Even the experienced reporter shrank slightly.
Su Xiuyan looked at him and said in a deep voice: "I strongly opposed my brother's decision at the beginning. But my brother's physical condition was very bad at that time. If you have known the situation back then, you must know that at that time my brother could almost Said it was at stake. I was heartbroken that my brother had to let me announce his 'death', but I was even more unwilling to go against his will... At that time, no matter what my brother asked me to do for him, I would try my best to help him do it."
What he said was very painful, coupled with his slightly gloomy expression, it seemed that people could personally experience his helplessness and pain.
Of course, that reporter had done a lot of homework before he dared to be the first bird. Facing Su Xiuyan's gaze, he asked bravely: "I did check a lot of materials back then. At that time, Mr. Su Xiuyan had not only just suffered the death of his father, Pain, and also experienced the blow of girlfriend’s suicide?”
The reporter originally planned to pursue "girlfriend suicide" as a doubtful point that was not so harmonious between the brothers, but in the end, under Su Xiuyan's strong and painful eyes, he changed his words and threw it out lightly.
Su Xiuyan bent the corners of his lips extremely slightly, and in his resolute and sharp eyes, a little fleeting fragility was just right: "Yes, so I couldn't risk losing my brother at that time, even if I had to be in public. Losing him in front of my eyes...but I can still keep this family relationship in a place where no one can see."
Hearing this, Lin Mei looked at the eyes of some easily-impressed reporters who were already full of sympathy, and those who were more vulnerable simply burst into tears, thinking in her heart: This family is full of acting talents, right? , Entering the entertainment circle, there are two statuettes.
Seeing that they couldn't find anything on Su Xiuyan's side, the reporters quickly turned their attention to Su Xiuran who was sitting beside him with a quiet smile.
After all, compared with Su Xiuyan, who is powerful and notoriously difficult, Su Xiuran, who is wearing a light-colored suit and always has a quiet smile on his lips, looks a little more manageable.
So a sweet-looking female reporter stood up and asked: "Since Mr. Su Xiuyan said so, then I would like to ask Mr. Su Xiuran, what were your considerations before you let your family announce that you have 'died'? Know that it's going to be emotionally difficult for your family."
Su Xiuran first smiled slightly, his smile was very gentle, and his eyes were vaguely tender, which made the female reporter's heart tremble, and she almost apologized for her rude words.
Then he opened his mouth softly, and the deep and gentle voice came out through the speaker, which was a bit more intoxicating and full-bodied: "I thought that life didn't just have a beginning. The life at that time was a burden to me at that time. When I was dead, I am now born."
When he said this, he paused for a moment, with a relieved smile on his lips, before continuing: "I am grateful for the support from my mother and younger brother, even if they don't fully understand. I also thank them for their support over the years. protection, so that I will not have to face such a superficial and rude torture like today."
Not a single word in what he said was specifically aimed at the female reporter, but he belittled her to a "superficial and rude" situation, but his tone and expression were so gentle and gentle, like whispering in a lover's ear .
The female reporter was stunned for a moment before realizing that she had not only been refuted, but also scolded politely. She wanted to say something more, and raised her head to meet Su Xiuran's gaze, hoping to find something in it. There were some traces of his rudeness and rudeness, but his eyes were still extremely warm, even with a hint of pity.
Lin Mei looked at the female reporter with a flushed face, and thought: This is a comprehensive crushing of IQ and EQ, if you don't want to lose your temper further, just admit it and don't struggle.
Among the reporters present, there were many quick-witted and first-class people. After a brief silence, other reporters immediately took the right to ask questions: "We only found out in the past few days that Mr. Su Xiuran is the great god of 'Suxiu'. You are a fan of yours. Could you please satisfy my little fan’s request and tell us about your creative process? And the news of your next new book! I have read "Sunset" three times, and I can’t wait to read it See your next work!"
This topic became much easier, and there was a warm atmosphere immediately, and there were even good-natured laughter.
Su Xiuran replied with a more gentle smile: "My creative process was just when I realized that Shenyue could have another excellent leader, but there is only one Su Xiu in this world...so I That's it."
Although in creation, every creator can be said to be unique, but when others say this sentence, it may be regarded as arrogant by secular standards, but he deserves his name.
As a person who has repeatedly created records in the literary world, "Su Xiu" is destined to be included in the annals of literary history. It is natural to say that there is no doubt about it.
Su Xiuran turned his gaze to Lin Mei beside him, and said with a smile: "As for the news of my next work, the beautiful lady next to me is my responsible editor, you can ask her for more information .”
Lin Mei, who was named, was refreshed. She is not a bumpkin who has never seen the world, is she?Not to mention the company's other public events, during Su Xiuran's reclusive life, she hosted the "Twilight" new book launch.But even if she faced more media and a higher level, she could still handle it.
Compared to the two great gods next to him who would hold a gun and a stick to make people unable to get off the stage at any time when they spoke, Lin Mei, who was not aggressive at first glance, was of course much easier to get close to.
In addition, the reporters present were all invited by Shenyue, and they were reminded by their respective leaders in advance that they were here to cheer. Don't tear down the stage casually. Seeing the obvious "don't talk too much" attitude of the two Su family brothers, they are naturally happy to share The conversation turned to the innocuous "new book."
So the following interviews and questions were almost dedicated to Lin Mei and Xingwen Books, which she represented behind her.
Lin Mei pulled herself together and tried to make jokes. Not only did she want to promote the company, but she also had to pretend to be confident, revealing that the so-called "new book" was clearly still in Su Xiuran's mind, and she hadn't even read a hair——
It will definitely continue the consistent style!There will be an element of love too!
plot?The plot is top secret and cannot be revealed.
theme?The subject matter is also top secret and cannot be disclosed. You know that there are too many people imitating Soviet revisionism.
Will there be a new book launch?There will definitely be. Will Su Xiu continue to attend?Look at the enthusiasm of the readers, if the enthusiasm is enough, we will open a few hours of interactive signings, interaction!
The press conference was originally scheduled for one hour, but Lin Mei lasted for more than half an hour alone, which was quite a struggle.
In any case, the press conference ended in a warm and joyful atmosphere. Su Xiuyan was obviously a little impatient. After his press spokesman finished his closing speech, he stood up and bowed slightly to the audience, and then turned sideways to help Su Xiu Then pull out the chair.
After Su Xiuran got up, as if he was afraid that he would not be able to stand still, he gently supported his arm, and said in a low voice, "Be careful."
Since then, he has been raising his arms lightly in front of Su Xiuran, with a look of caring, for fear that others will touch his precious brother.
Lin Mei looked at such a scene of "brothers and brothers respecting each other", silently considering how much "acting" was involved in it.
Sure enough, when he got backstage, Su Xiuyan immediately let go of Su Xiuran's arm, and turned to look at Lin Mei as if nothing had happened: "You're doing pretty well."
Lin Mei smiled politely: "It's nothing, I can't just slap President Su."
These days, Su Xiuyan has gotten used to her flaring her teeth and paws at her to provoke her when she is bored. Su Xiuran spoils her, so it's not shameful that he can't move.
The owner over there raised his hand and stroked her head lightly, with a soft smile on his lips: "Xiaomei, don't always bully Xiuyan."
"Xiao Mei" was changed by Su Xiuran in the past two days. The reason was that the two of them were bored in the ward. Lin Mei suddenly remembered something and said to him: "You call your brother Xiu Yan, how can you even call me?" What about first and last names?"
Su Xiuran smiled and said, "What do you want me to call you?"
Lin Mei thought about it for a long time, "Sister" is too nasty, let alone "Meier", I feel a chill when I think about it, "Xiao Lin" is called by everyone, "Xiao Linzi" is both like a eunuch and reminds people of that A famous martial arts figure, so I can only say: "My parents call me 'Xiaomei'."
It was the "Little Eyebrow" who she had carefully selected and ordered Su Xiuran to change his words. Su Xiuyan obviously felt that it was too nasty. After hearing Su Xiuran's shout, both of them were "blind". expression.
Although Su Xiuran didn't show it, but according to his current physical condition, he must be tired after bumping back and forth and sitting for an hour.Su Xiuyan didn't say any more, took his bodyguards and drove Su Xiuran back to the hospital.After that, he didn't stay there, and said to Su Xiuran, "Contact anytime if necessary", and left first.
He took away two bodyguards, and the remaining four bodyguards were left here three days ago. It is said that he hired a top security company, and all of them are retired special forces elites.
For the chief envoy hiding in the dark who doesn't know what to do, these bodyguards certainly can't completely eliminate the danger, but they can also serve as a slight deterrent, at least to make that person dare not do it directly.
It has to be said that both Su Xiuyan's and Su Xiuran's thinking patterns are the same: if necessary, first choose the simplest and most effective solution.
Stomach bleeding has always been a painful and grueling disease, because of previous repetitions, even though it was confirmed that the bleeding did not continue, Su Xiuran was still not allowed to eat, even liquid food was forbidden, and he could only rely on infusions to maintain nutrition every day, and his physical strength was natural Not supported.
He could barely support himself at the press conference and in front of Su Xiuyan, and when he returned to the ward, he needed Lin Mei to help him change his clothes.
Helping him to lie down on the bed, Lin Mei knew that he was not feeling well at the moment when he saw the frown between his brows unintentionally, so she sighed and said: "Speaking of which, you brothers are too easy to be provoked, your brother will go crazy when he goes crazy. , Why do you hit hard when you come up, even if you hit you twice, it won't make you lie in the hospital for so long."
Su Xiuran responded lightly: "Xiuyan has been a little impulsive since he was a child, let alone drank a lot that day."
He didn't mean to excuse Su Xiuyan when he spoke, this Lin Mei understood, it was only after he said this that Lin Mei remembered that what happened that day was so sudden that she later ignored the suit that Su Xiuyan was carrying when he rushed in Strong smell of alcohol.
It is not surprising that a person who has been deeply resentful and cursed towards his elder brother for many years will act impulsively under the double stimulation of drunkenness and knots. He was driving drunk that night, and it is lucky that he did not have an accident on the road.
She ignored this detail, and Zhang Yan and Yu Qizhen would definitely not ignore it. Even if they didn’t detain him for deliberately hurting someone that night, they could use the name of drunk driving, but they didn’t do that. Zhang Yanzhen sold him and was still rescuing him Su Xiuran, whose life and death are uncertain, has a big face.
Seeing Lin Mei's pensive expression, Su Xiuran smiled and said, "At present, there are too few clues, and thinking is easy to reach a deadlock. Don't bother too much. Just wait for the other party's next move and reveal new flaws."
Lin Mei nodded knowingly, couldn't help but leaned over and kissed his pale cheeks and lips lightly, leaned beside him and whispered: "This man dares to hurt the man I love, I will not let him go. "
She was suddenly full of arrogance, Su Xiuran pursed her lips and smiled, raised her hand to stroke her long hair that fell from her temples: "Okay, first of all, thank you for your love."
Su Xiuran said that he would wait for the other party's further actions, but in the end he received a somewhat inexplicable "gift", or a declaration of war?
Lin Mei didn't know how to understand it. It was a bouquet of flowers sent by a florist. It was wrapped in a delicate green sandpaper gift box. After opening, there was a bouquet of white bellflowers and a hand-painted card.
Being able to be sent to Su Xiuran's ward must have been checked by the bodyguards, and there will be no problem, but Lin Mei felt that the card was a little strange.
With a few strokes on the screen, a cherry blossom with colorful petals is outlined. Different from ordinary paintings, the petals of the cherry blossoms in this painting are all blood red. The texture and color of those red petals gave her a strange feeling a feeling of.
She wanted to hold the card in front of her eyes for a closer look, but Su Xiuran gently covered it with her hand: "Don't read it, it was drawn with blood."
It was only then that Lin Mei realized that those petals did look different from ordinary paints. Of course, the amount of blood on the card was not much, but even so, this card gave people an indescribable feeling.
Lin Mei frowned and said, "Whose blood is too disgusting."
Su Xiuran smiled, his face is still pale these days: "Probably mine."
Lin Mei was startled, and subconsciously leaned over to hug him, Su Xiuran was a little surprised by this sudden hug, and patted her on the shoulder: "What's wrong?"
Lin Mei couldn't say why, anyway, when she knew that someone was targeting Su Xiuran and might hurt him, she would always be in danger.
She is different from Su Xiuyan, in Su Xiuyan's mind, Su Xiuran seems to be so powerful that he can do anything, but in her opinion, Su Xiuran is more vulnerable than ordinary people.
Maybe it's because she shouldered the responsibility of "taking care" of Su Xiuran from the very beginning, and his body did often have problems. At the earliest time, Su Xiuran was a precious and exquisite porcelain in her eyes, which needed to be scrubbed and cared for constantly. , Later, this kind of care became an instinct.
Moreover, she realized that she already regarded Su Xiuran as some kind of property. If she had to use a cheesy metaphor to describe it, it would be that Su Xiuran was already her heart. She has to fight hard.
No matter how well Su Xiuran understood human psychology, he couldn't guess that her intestines had twists and turns. He thought she was frightened, so he patted her on the shoulder and said comfortingly, "Don't be afraid, that blood volume It was small, and while I was in the hospital for surgery and later recovering, anyone who came close could take the opportunity to collect blood."
Lin Mei put her arms around his shoulders and hugged him tightly, put her chin on his shoulders, and remained silent for a long time with fierce eyes, before she said viciously: "Blood pays with blood."
Su Xiuran, who couldn't figure out her logic at the moment, could only laugh uncontrollably: "Little sister, where are you thinking?"
After the bouquet of flowers, the other party did not try to do anything else, and the blood on the card was later taken to the police station by Zhang Yan for testing, and as Su Xiuran expected, it was indeed his blood.
The next two weeks were quite peaceful, the invisible big hand in the dark seemed to be waiting for a new opportunity, and temporarily hibernated, and because Su Xiuran's body had not yet recovered, Zhang Yan did not bother him anymore.
They were able to temporarily resume their ordinary life before. Two weeks later, because Su Xiuran recovered well, they were discharged from the hospital to recuperate at home.
For Su Xiuran, who doesn't seem to be very picky about life, but is actually very picky, of course going home makes him more comfortable.
Especially now that Lin Mei was by his side almost [-]/[-], not even participating in the regular meeting of the editorial department on Monday, which seemed to mean that the king would not go to court early, which made him even more satisfied.
It's no wonder Lin Mei acted so boldly. The task Du Yuwen gave her now is to take good care of the company's cash cow. If there is a problem with the cash cow, she simply resigns.
Of course, she still has to find time to discuss the outline of the new book with Su Xiuran, who is very leisurely while recovering from illness. You must know that Su Xiuran's writing cycle is not long. A book of 20 words is enough for him to finish it in two months. The difficulty is that before The run-in of the outline.That's why Lin Mei was particularly anxious when his outline was lost, it was almost the crystallization of Su Xiuran's work in the past few months.
The outline of "Sunshine" was basically completed before she took over Liu Han's job, so this was the first time she had really experienced this process, and Lin Mei felt that she was about to be abandoned by Su Xiu in just a few days. Crazy.
He can really come up with an outline today, completely overturn it tomorrow and start over again, and on the third day, he returns to the idea of the first day... Multiplied by more than five times, and the cycle repeats.
You must know that he is a person with quick thinking and an amazing amount of information in one day. When solving a case, he often processed a huge amount of information by himself, and all the answers he got were concise and unique, which made the people who worked with him feel very impressed. Easy and clear.
But when it came time to write the book, he decided to let that pressure out.So he asked Lin Mei to remember the ideas he put forward every day, so that he could extract the "log" from her brain to sort out when necessary.
Lin Mei felt that she was no longer qualified to say that Liu Han's work was easy to do, and she also fully understood why Liu Han completely disappeared in the office once he entered the preparation period for the new book - just at Su Xiuran's house, his head was about to swell. It was so used that it exploded, so there was no life left to go to the office.
Du Yuwen should have expected this a long time ago, so he was extra tolerant to her, right?
What's even more hateful is that the function of Su Xiuran's poisonous tongue in the writing state is automatically triggered, completely losing the usual tenderness and consideration.
Even if she is his girlfriend now, he would be ruthless when he ridiculed her. When he saw her stuck, he would show a pitiful and down-looking smile, and said lightly: "Liu Han is indeed more useful than you."
Lin Mei resisted the urge to vomit blood, told herself over and over again to "be professional", and continued to keep up with his rhythm.
As a result, at night, she drank an extra bowl of porridge as if venting her anger, and he said coolly beside him: "Even if you try to gain weight, you can't increase your brain capacity."
At that time, with a trembling of her hand, she almost knocked the bowl onto his head—at this time, the ghost still remembered that he was her dear boyfriend, and she didn't have such a boyfriend!
I don't know if Su Xiuran realizes that he has been bullying Lin Mei a bit too much recently, and if he continues like this, he will suffer the consequences sooner or later.After dinner, not only did he lie on the bed in the bedroom and smiled softly at Lin Mei who brought the water, but he also lowered his eyes to show her his sky-long eyelashes.
It's a pity that a certain person was too self-inflicted, Lin Mei didn't buy his overtures at all, she just put the water glass on the bedside, piled up the pills to be taken after meals in his hands, and said calmly: "Take it!" medicine."
As a person with a top-notch EQ and IQ, Su Xiuran knew how to read words and expressions, and took the medicine obediently. Even if a large amount of medicine choked his throat, he only coughed softly a few times, and then continued to smile at her: "Xiaomei, I have a rather irritable temper when I work, so don't take it to heart."
She can understand the venomous tongue at work, and she doesn't want Su Xiuran to force her to change her habit in order to take care of her. It's just at dinner time... Then it's obviously outside working hours, okay?
Lin Mei looked at him from the corners of her eyes for a while, then suddenly leaned over and bit his thin lips that were still shining with water, biting with venting, let the breaths of each other mix together, and then she left him.
Stretching out her hand to touch his chin, Lin Mei forced him to look up at herself, and she was finally satisfied: "It's okay to lose your temper during the day, just make it up to me at night."
When she said "compensation", Su Xiuran's body stiffened suddenly, thinking he was not convinced, Lin Mei snorted again: "Why, do you have any opinions?"
She didn't look in the mirror, so she didn't see the faint blush on her face after the passionate kiss and anger, and her bright eyes were full of stars, shining brightly.
Su Xiuran's arms around her waist tightened involuntarily, and after a while, he smiled gently again, looked at her and said in a low voice, "How dare I."
His voice was tinged with hoarseness, and it came through softly. Lin Mei instinctively sensed something, pushed his arm away and sat up, blushing and ran away.
Su Xiuran watched her fleeing back with a smile, like a deer that accidentally ran into a hunter's trap, defenseless.
If Su Xiuyan saw this scene, he would definitely mock him, since he wanted her so much, why did he hesitate?It doesn't look like Su Xiuran's style at all.
Even Su Xiuran didn't expect that one day he would really worry about gains and losses for one person, and be careful like walking on eggshells, but he still felt that it was not enough.
Sometimes he would even think that if Lin Mei didn't have the courage to take the last step, maybe he would be like this forever... heart stained with honey, trapped in thorns.
So impatient, it seems that every day needs great endurance to support it, but it is still a kind of sweet suffering.
