Bamboo horse is not a gentleman

Chapter 52

A few days later, Ruan Xinmei and Yin Mochen's wedding invitation appeared on the dinner table of Lu's family. Looking at the bright red invitation, Yuan Qing felt a little ridiculed when thinking of the relationship between them who would pinch each other when they met.

"Say, shall we go?"

Lu Bai said indifferently:
"Since she invites you kindly, she can't just throw the invitation into the trash. It's just a matter of time to go and see how Xia Weiwei is doing. She won't miss this kind of 'future mother-in-law' passing through the door."

After the wedding, Xia Weiwei had no news. Yuan Qing called her, but the phone was always turned off.Just thinking of Yin Heyuan's sanctimonious and posturing face at the wedding, Yuan Qing felt disgusted, how could Xia Weiwei, who was so arrogant and arrogant as an outsider, endure every day in order to survive?
Ever since Lu Bai fell ill, Yuan Qing has been imprisoning his mobile phone in the name of his girlfriend and assistant. When Chang Shan dialed Lu Bai's mobile phone, Yuan Qing said:

"Reporter Chang, what's the matter?"

Chang Shan was slightly taken aback:
"I thought it was Lu Bai's phone."

"Yes, I am his assistant."

Chang Shan couldn't help laughing:
"Please tell Lu Bai, I have something to ask him."

"Just tell me."

"No matter what kind of woman, will rely on the temporary favor of a man, think that she can do whatever she wants, and be careful of the fate of being abandoned in the end."

Yuan Qing retorted and said:
"As long as it's for his own good, of course he can do whatever he wants! Lu Bai is not in good health recently, he needs to rest more, so don't bother him with your gossip and gossip!"

After all, she cut off the call.

At the same time, Lu Bai in the study received a call from Chang Shan.

Chang Shan's tone was slightly teasing:
"Sure enough, every couple will have their own little secrets, just like boyfriend and girlfriend each have another mobile phone. Even your future wife slave is no exception."

"What's the matter with me?"

"Really, even the tone is the same." Chang Shan restrained his smile and said, "I heard that Ruan Xinmei and Yin Mochen are getting married?"

"Your news is better than mine." Lu Bai said lightly.

"So, you already know."

"Yes."

"Li Yan went in and was busy marrying Yin Mocheng, so your mother didn't treat me well."

Lu Bai raised the corners of his lips, his words were mocking:
"No, she just doesn't want to stop teasing us so soon."

"what?"

"It's nothing." Lu Bai shook his head, Ruan Xinmei was not the type to let it go.

"Since the father and son have established a relationship with Xia Ruan's family, there has been a lot of movement recently."

Lu Bai listened expressionlessly and did not speak.

""We don't know each other, I want to give you a piece of advice. "

"What advice?"

"Be careful of Yin's father and son. If Ruan Xinmei is a poisonous snake, then they are wolves. Your mother is playing tricks, and they are vicious in their bones. In a real contest, they may not be their father and son's opponents."

"What exactly are you trying to say?"

"I had someone investigate the backgrounds of Yin's father and son. Yin Mochen was born in a commoner family and had two marriages just like your mother. The ending was also very strange. The first wife was the daughter of the director of the building materials factory. He died of a heart attack and passed away the next day. His second wife was the only daughter of a low-key rich man. In the third year after marriage, this wife and her father-in-law died in a car accident. The most strange thing is that Yin Yuanhe was not born to the two wives of Yin Mochen. His biological mother is unknown, and it didn’t surface until the death of his father’s second wife.” Speaking of this, Chang Shan said with a half-smile, “Both of these two have profited from their marriage, and now they are rivals in chess, Ruan Xinmei. I understand it, but the depth of the Yin family and his son is currently unfathomable, and in a duel between the strong and the strong, it is still unknown who will win!"

"Why did you tell me?" After a while, Lu Bai said lightly, "Do you think I care about these things?"

Chang Shan smiled:

"Do you know?" My life used to be full of ideals. The world is so big, and everything about me is really insignificant. The so-called love, hate, and entanglement between people are just ripples of life and death, nothing to worry about. These years, my eyes are only on current politics, literature and art, science and the future. Those are the things that can change the fate of millions of human beings. Except for the time when I met Li Yan and you, I put myself into your roles and stood in Li Yan’s place. I did something that even I disdain myself.But, now I am no longer like this. "

"how was it?"

"I think you should know something about my family. Apart from my mother, my father, Chang Wenyuan, needs women and sons the most. Now he actually wants another woman to enter the house and drive my mother away. He Knowing that my mother and I are inseparable, sending her away is equivalent to sending me away so that the newcomer can take over. It turned out that I didn't care about his property, and I didn't care about fighting for fame and fortune! Now I finally understand, It turns out that money is also a kind of power! If I don’t want to make progress, someone will try to step on me and my mother, and become the role of a knife and a fish! If I don’t want those people to succeed, I can only take away my father The right to take over the family business, let that man live lifeless and dying in front of my mother from now on!"

Along with Lu Bai's soft sigh, Chang Shan's smile became bitter:
"Nevertheless, in the end, I hope that when I replace him as the president of the company, he can take care of other women and live a good life with my mother! This may be the so-called blood connection. They gave birth to you. If you completely deny them, it is tantamount to completely denying yourself. So all these years, I have loved and hated, hated and looked forward to, hoping that one day a miracle will come."

After finishing the call with Chang Shan, Lu Bai called Ruan Xinmei again and told her all about the situation of Yin's father and son, but Ruan Xinmei didn't listen to Lu Bai's dissuasion at all, and decided to marry Yin Mocheng.

Ruan Xinmei's third wedding was held at a high-end private club in Lucheng on Saturday, and no one was allowed to enter without an invitation.

On the day of the wedding, Lu Bai casually wore a jacket, and Yuan Qing wore an ordinary windbreaker. At the entrance of the resplendent club, two security personnel in black suits looked them up and down for a long time before they were allowed to pass.

The exquisite and elegant hall is decorated with flowers everywhere. Men and women in evening gowns are talking in a low voice in the air intertwined with the scent of perfume and flowers. The most shining thing in the crowd is wearing big rhinestone earrings and wearing a white fish dress. Ruan Xin's eyebrows in the tail skirt, she is holding champagne, like a big fish full of jewels, in the shadow of her fragrant clothes and temples, her face is full of spring breeze, and she has both sides.

The new husband, Yin Mochen, followed her all the way, holding champagne for his wife with a smile on his face, or helping her tidy up the broken hair on her shoulders, and reminding her to touch up her makeup, looking like a 24-year-old husband.

From time to time, some guests teased Mr. Ruan for his good husband, and that he and Yin are always a match made in heaven. They are a pair of Bi people. These two women and men, whose combined age is about 100 years old, immediately laughed unscrupulously, with rippling faces.

Lu Bai looked at them calmly, and asked lightly:
"Tell me, who is the best acting person in this room?"

Yuan Qing was silent for a moment, then replied:

"It's hard to tell."

Lu Bai glanced at it and didn't want to look any more. He raised Yuan Qing's hand and said lightly:
"Let's go."

"But—why didn't you see Xia Weiwei?"

"I think she's pregnant and generally avoids crowded places."

The next day, Yuan Qing, who was busy in the kitchen, unexpectedly received a call from Xia Weiwei.

Xia Weiwei's voice was slow and trembling, Yuan Qing sensed something was wrong, and hurriedly asked Lu Bai to answer the phone.

After a while, Lu Bai came to the kitchen, his expression condensed to the extreme.

"What happened?"

"Xia Weiwei said that ever since she moved into Yin's house, she couldn't sleep at night, as if she could always hear a woman crying intermittently, which was very weird."

"Did Yin Heyuan and the others hear that?"

"Everyone in the Yin family, including the servants, unanimously denied hearing the crying. Yin Heyuan consulted obstetrician and gynecologists and psychologists in turn. They all said that it was caused by the excessive pressure during pregnancy, and there were no other problems. Fortunately, her father Xia Ruhong noticed it. Seeing that her condition was not normal, Wang Anrui, his adoptive son and bodyguard, brought her back home in the name of recuperation and antenatal care, and now he plans to use the Haitian project bid as a bargaining chip for the divorce as soon as possible."

"I think all of this is Yin Heyuan's fault."

"Well, very likely."

"Is it not enough to get Xia Weiwei?"

"Xiang Zhuang's sword dance was aimed at Pei Gong. From the very beginning, what he set his eyes on was not her, but her father's wealth."

"Oh, this man is too unpredictable!"

Neither of them expected that even more unpredictable things were yet to come!

A few days later, one afternoon, Lu Bai took advantage of the rare rest time to sit with Yuan Qing on the sofa and watch TV. Big bags of snacks were piled up on the coffee table in the living room. Yuan Qing's head was tilted on his shoulder, like a lazy The squirrel was chewing potato chips, while Ah Bai crawled at her feet, squinting his eyes for a nap, and occasionally wagging his tail to show his presence.

The lengthy speech speed of Korean dramas is like elastic gloves, and the repeated plots make people drowsy. Lu Bai couldn't bear to change the channel, and a local news broke out without warning:

"Yuan Xinmei, chairman of Yaoyang Group, was rushed to the hospital today due to a sudden heart attack. It is reported that she is still in a coma. Ruan Xinmei's husband Yin Mochen announced that he will temporarily take over as the chairman of Yaoyang Group until his wife recovers and is discharged from the hospital... ..."

With a "click", Yuan Qing accidentally dropped the whole bag of potato chips on the ground. She sat up straight and looked at her boyfriend beside her.

Lu Bai remained expressionless, wringing his hands together.

How long has it been since you saw Lu Bai's unchanging expression like a puppet?There is a more painful situation in this world than being in a nightmare, that is, not screaming, shouting, or expressing any emotions, allowing the shadows to envelop and the soul to be swallowed by numbness.

Yuan Qing's heart ached, and he couldn't help holding Lu Bai's hand with both hands. His palm was still generous and gentle, but it was as cold as ice.

"Ruan Xinmei has been exercising all the time, and she rarely gets sick. It is absolutely impossible for this to happen."

"Could it be..."

"The Yin family and his son also attacked her like Xia Weiwei." The man murmured, "And she lost."

Yuan Qing tightly clenched his hand: ""Ruan Xinmei was never a god, nor was she a Satan, she was just a very smart ordinary strong woman.We have to save her, no matter whether she asks you for help, no matter how she treats you, you have to save her, because she is your biological mother, she gave birth to you.Even if she has brought you so much misfortune, if you don't help her, if you don't have her in your life, neither you nor I will have real happiness. "

Lu Bai held Yuan Qing's hand back, his brows furrowed.

Few people know his real name these years, and even fewer people know that he is Ruan Xinmei's son.For Ruan Xinmei's life, he is an invisible person, a dispensable past. Since the Yin family and his son dared to do this, it is certain that no one will lend a helping hand to Ruan Xinmei. What kind of name can not be blocked?Lu Bai fell into deep thought.

The mobile phone on the coffee table vibrated slightly, breaking the suffocating dullness.

Yuan Qing glanced at the caller ID - Chang Shan.

"It seems that he knows too."

Lu Bai picked up the phone: "Hello, Chang Shan?"

Chang Shan, who had just finished dating his girlfriend, was filled with the smell of sweet and greasy perfume and powder. He pulled off his tie a little annoyed, turned on the TV, and tuned to the news channel habitually. The news of Ruan Xinmei's hospitalization happened to enter his line of sight.

Although there was a conflict with Lu Bai, as time went by, he sympathized with and understood Lu Bai more and more, and even felt sympathy for this man's suffering.They are all men who pursue self-excellence and pure emotion. They are born in a distorted family, and they seem to be locked in a small cage surrounded by metal fences. They are always struggling in despair.

Perhaps this life can not break free, can not forget.

So after reading the news, Chang Shan couldn't help calling Lu Bai:
"It seems that the battle between your mother and Yin's father and son still failed. I heard that the two had been at a stalemate for the Haitian project that the Xia family had handed over to them before. Yin Mochen tried to persuade your mother to inject capital into Yin's, but your mother meant to Money is fine, but it must be exchanged for several patents of the Yin family. It is conceivable that the Yin family and his son will definitely use some shady means to deal with her, what are you going to do?"

"My identity has never been known to outsiders. When she is in a coma, they will definitely use all means to prevent me from visiting the ward. Yin Mochen is not an easy character to deal with."

Chang Shan was silent for a moment, then said:

"At this time, we can only rely on public opinion to intervene."

"What do you mean?"

"Lu Bai, if you don't mind putting your wounds in the public eye like an exhibit, there may be a chance to save your mother."
