Chapter 32

Ma Kuina said dissatisfiedly: "Son, what are you talking about? Your father and I have been friends for many years, and I will not sit back and watch Cheng's chaos. What are you going to do now?"

Cheng Yuan said firmly: "I'm ready, I believe, evil never prevails!"

Ma Kuina stared at Cheng Yuan thinking and said, "No, I can't watch you take risks!"

At this time, there was a knock on the door, and both of them fell silent.Wu Yue called softly outside: "Can I come in?"

Lida said to the second sister with some dissatisfaction: "Why did you ask Wu Yue to persuade Cheng Yuan?"

"Because it's not suitable for you to go now!"

"Why? I love Cheng Yuan! I love him more than anyone else!"

The second sister explained: "But what Cheng Yuan is going to do is subversion, your father won't like it!"

"I stayed and did not go with my father, just to support Cheng Yuan."

The second sister sighed and said, "My eldest sister made the same choice back then, and ended up staying in the Cheng family for the rest of her life. Sometimes women can't compete with fate!"

Wu Yue stood at the door panting, and said timidly: "The second sister asked me to come, she said that you might lose the Cheng family today, and we might not be able to go back to Beijing because of this! She asked me to advise you not to do stupid things!"

Cheng Yuan frowned and asked, "Did the second sister ask you to come, or did you come by yourself?"

Wu Yue said in a low voice: "I...I think you don't do stupid things, and I also want Li Kejin to be released. You know what it will be like if we stay any longer!"

Now Cheng Yuan's heart was extremely agitated, and he said decisively and unfeelingly: "I'm sorry, your matter is no longer in my consideration, the second sister made a mistake! She thought I would really stop because of the fate of a small person , this is simply a joke!"

Hearing Cheng Yuan's hurtful words, Wu Yue almost shed tears, she controlled herself and shook her head desperately, "It's not a joke. Li Kejin and I are very small, but we are also human beings, you can't just abandon us for your big cause. "

Seeing Wu Yue's sadness, Cheng Yuan endured it, walked over and patted her on the shoulder and said, "Okay, I promise you, I won't lose Cheng, and you won't lose Li Kejin either!"

Cheng Yuan turned his head and said to Ma Kuina: "Uncle Ma Kuina, wait for me here!" Then he walked out without hesitation.

Ma Kuina looked at Wu Yue who was crying, and asked with interest: "Are you the heroine of the marijuana case, that Beijing girl?"

Wu Yue nodded and asked, "Cheng Yuan, what is he going to do?"

Maquina suddenly smiled easily and said meaningfully: "He will do what he wants to do!"

Wu Yue walked out with half-knowledge.

The reception outside was still the same, the visitors gathered together in twos and threes to drink and talk, and the scene was lively and orderly, after all, the people who came were from the upper class.

Cheng Yuan walked out with a pale face, and everyone respected him wherever he went.The wine will quiet down as he walks.

Seventh Uncle sat at the long table and stared at him, Second Sister stood in the crowd and stared at him, and Lida watched him coming from the audience.

Cheng Yuan took a glass of wine, stepped onto the stage, and said loudly, "Uncle Seventh wants to announce something before the reception officially starts. Uncle Seventh, please come on stage!"

There was applause from all around, Uncle Seven looked around, got up and walked onto the stage, pulled the microphone over and said, "The people who came to this reception today are all close friends of the Cheng family, the Cheng family has not held such a big reception for many years. In the past 100 years, Cheng's enterprise has been in charge of the leader of Nanyang Chinese enterprises. In these years, the economic situation has changed rapidly. Old antiques like us can no longer understand what is going on in the information industry. We are used to selling houses, Selling cars, there are always some, but telling people one thing, you can make a lot of money, I don't understand this..."

There was laughter from below, and everyone was praising Uncle Seven for his humor.

"So, from today onwards, I voluntarily give up my Cheng's shares and fixed assets, and permanently withdraw from the company's board of directors and decision-making. The future of Cheng's depends on Mr. Cheng..." Uncle Seven continued.

Wu Yue walked over slowly, listening to the speech on the stage in amazement.

The guests talked about it.

"Seventh Uncle is very wise, retire after success!"

"Cheng Yuan still has a set of skills. It has only been more than a month, and the Cheng family has been completely controlled by him. I heard that even the Fei family will be in his pocket sooner or later!"

Hearing these discussions, Wu Yue gradually felt relieved. At least so far, nothing unusual happened, and Cheng Yuan was in control of the power.Wu Yue found a place to sit down, looked at the stage, she turned her eyes, and suddenly saw an obviously bald head.

Wu Yue jumped up in shock, pushed aside the crowd and walked towards "Alopecia areata", and "Alopecia areata" who was pretending to be a waiter flashed in front of her, and Wu Yue couldn't help but screamed.

Everyone around looked back at her, and Wu Yue covered her mouth in panic and embarrassment.

Wu Yue thought for a while, and walked towards the stage while looking around for that "alopecia areata".

On the stage, Cheng Yuan said in high spirits: "We are gathered here today, and I want to celebrate Uncle Qi's retirement from work and going home for the elderly. The real estate project developed by Cheng's enterprise, 160 seaside villas, is presented as a gift To Uncle Qi. All sales proceeds will be used as Uncle Qi's pension, this is the deed..."

Cheng Yuan waved his hand, Attorney Tan handed over the deed documents, Cheng Yuan took them solemnly, and handed them over to Uncle Qi.

There was applause from the audience.Uncle Seven took it over politely, put his hands together to express his gratitude, and then stepped off the stage.

Cheng Yuan continued: "At the same time, I would like to thank everyone for their long-term support and love for the Cheng family. In the new 100 years, the Cheng family, like all companies in Asia, has experienced great challenges. All ancient Chinese families, In order to survive in the new century, there must be changes, rebirth, elimination, and washing. Our fund will, as always, be open to Chinese people all over the world, and the mode of operation will gradually be diversified and informatized..."

Out of Cheng Yuan's sight, "Alopecia areata" dressed as a waiter was covering up with a tray, pointing his gun at Cheng Yuan who was talking on the stage, with an earphone on his ear, as if waiting for instructions.

Wu Yue was already close to the stage, she looked around the stage, and then climbed up from the edge of the stage.

Lawyer Qin found her and asked in surprise, "Miss Wu, why are you here?"

Wu Yue said anxiously: "When will he finish speaking? I want to tell him one thing, very important thing!"

Lida was standing under the stage, watching Wu Yue's every move with some surprise.

Cheng Yuan continued to speak on the stage: "... During the six months since my father's illness, Uncle Qi has put in all his efforts to survive Cheng's business, although I don't agree with his actions." He deliberately paused for a while, solemnly Looking at the audience, he said, "I just learned that Cheng's ocean-going fleet is smuggling people on the high seas and helping smugglers!"

There was a sudden silence in the audience, and the second sister and the seventh uncle were already stunned.

"Alopecia areata" held the earphones to listen to the instructions, and then lifted the tray.Wu Yue suddenly saw it, and ran out screaming, pointing to the audience and shouting loudly: "It's him!"

The scene suddenly became chaotic, "Alopecia areata" was shot in panic and instantly changed direction. Hearing a gunshot, the guests screamed in shock, swarming towards the door without caring about their gentlemanly demeanor.

The bodyguards waited for the opportunity to push Wu Yue and Cheng Yuan to the ground together for protection.

The scene became a mess, "Alopecia areata" put away his gun, mixed in the crowd and fled quickly.

The second sister and Lida ran up to the stage against the crowd, pushed aside the bodyguards and inspected Cheng Yuan.The second sister touched him like crazy, and shouted: "Ayuan, Ayuan! Where is the injury? Come on, let the second sister have a look!"

Cheng Yuan sat up and comforted him a little irritably, "I'm fine! Hurry up and catch that murderer!"

The second sister commanded the bodyguards, "Hurry up, protect Mr. Cheng and go to the villa! Hurry up!"

The bodyguards set up Cheng Yuan and left, only took a few steps, Cheng Yuan felt something was wrong, so he stopped forcibly and turned around, only to see Wu Yue still lying on the ground, motionless.

A bodyguard was squatting on the ground and calling her: "Miss, miss! What's wrong with you?"

Wu Yue remained motionless.

Everyone started to panic, Cheng Yuan broke away from the bodyguard, walked back and squatted down slowly, carefully turning Wu Yue's body over.The second sister and Lida screamed at the same time.Wu Yue was already in a coma, her body was dripping with blood, and the shot from "Alopecia areata" hit her.

Cheng Yuan was shocked, shaking Wu Yue's body and calling loudly: "Wu Yue, Wu Yue..."

At this time, Maquina's bodyguard broke through the crowd and said to Cheng Yuan: "Mr. Cheng, I am the captain of Mr. Maquina's guard. The assassin has not been found, and this place is too dangerous. Mr. Maquina instructed to protect you and leave here immediately." !"

The second sister eagerly came forward to pull Cheng Yuan: "A Yuan, go quickly! Go!"

Cheng Yuan shook off the second sister's hand, hugged Wu Yue and roared, "Hurry up, call the doctor!"

Ma Kuina walked over under the escort of the bodyguards, saw Cheng Yuan covered in blood, and asked in shock, "Are you injured?"

Cheng Yuan said with a livid face, "It wasn't my blood, the killer accidentally injured Miss Wu!"

Ma Kuina walked in, and the doctor who was called temporarily was cutting Wu Yue's clothes and looking at the wound.Lida supported her second sister and stood beside her.

The second sister said regretfully: "It's all my fault, I shouldn't have called her here. Doctor, you must save her!"

The doctor straightened up regretfully and said: "The bullet is behind her chest, if it is embedded in the spine, it may cause paralysis. It is best not to move any more and perform an operation on the spot!"

Maquina said seriously: "Call the capital hospital in my name and tell them to send the best doctor and send them here by helicopter!"

The second sister said tearfully, "Thank you so much, Uncle Maquina!"

Cheng Yuan looked back at the dying Wu Yue, he must keep calm at this time, Cheng Yuan kept reminding himself in his heart.He said to Maquina with a serious face: "Uncle Maquina, let's go out and talk."

38．lose-lose

Cheng Yuan followed behind Ma Kuina and greeted Lawyer Tan: "Lawyer Qin, you come too!"

Maquina seemed to inadvertently turned his head to pay attention, and continued to walk forward.The three of them came to Cheng Yuan's villa office together.

Cheng Yuan said excitedly: "Uncle Ma Kuina, I hope the police will arrest Uncle Qi immediately!"

"why?"

Cheng Yuan said angrily: "Because all the evidence shows that Uncle Qi did all of this - using ocean shipping to smuggle people, colluding with prosecutors to try to kill me, and murdering my father, including the assassination in public today I!"

Ma Kuina thought for a moment, and said, "However, Cheng Qi has announced his retirement. In addition to his reputation in the Cheng Group and even in the entire Southeast Asian business community, we cannot arrest him easily without conclusive evidence!"

Cheng Yuan said emotionally: "The smuggling of people by Cheng's ocean-going fleet is the evidence, he planned it all by himself!"

Maquina said calmly: "I know, because your ocean-going fleet is already sailing in the high seas, I just reported the case to the Maritime Safety Administration, hoping to inspect the fleet through diplomatic representations. Don't worry, let's wait for the inspection results together !"

The Chief of Police knocked on the door and came in, saluting Maquinas.

Maquina nodded and asked, "Tell me about the situation outside!"

The police chief replied: "Because there are so many guests on Jinchan Island, the current situation is very chaotic, and the murderer may take the opportunity to escape!"

Maquina instructed: "Be sure to catch him, at all costs!"

The police chief said repeatedly: "Yes! We are searching for the suspect." He took out a portrait and said, "This is the image of the murderer based on the witnesses' description. His obvious feature is a patch of baldness on his head!"

Cheng Yuan said in shock: "That's him, that's the one who put marijuana on the boat! It's also he who attacked me on the boat. Wu Yue recognized him a few days ago!"

Lawyer Tan thought about it, and said, "Yes, Miss Wu must have recognized the killer, that's why she came to the stage to warn you!"

Cheng Yuan suddenly came to his senses, turned around and asked Lawyer Tan: "Lawyer Qin, you said that Wu Yue came to the stage to warn me?"

Both Ma Kuina and the police chief stared at Cheng Yuan in surprise.

Lawyer Qin nodded and said, "Yes! She said she had something important to tell you, and she kept asking me when you would finish it! If she hadn't recognized the assassin and ran out and shouted, she wouldn't have Will get hurt!"

Cheng Yuan flashed back the scene at the reception, frowning.

After sending Ma Kuina away, Cheng Yuan immediately ran towards the temporary operating room. Lida was waiting at the door, and whispered to him: "The doctor is operating, and they said Miss Wu's condition is very dangerous!"

Cheng Yuan yelled arrogantly: "No, she can't die, absolutely can't die!"

Lida watched in shock as Cheng Yuan pushed the door open and walked in.

The atmosphere in the operating room was extremely tense. Doctors and nurses crowded around the bed. The doctor raised his hands in rubber gloves and ordered: "Blood pressure drops, prepare for electric shock!"

"Electric shock! Switch on, once!" The nurse reported in a blunt tone.

Everyone moved away, Cheng Yuan clearly watched the pacemaker hit Wu Yue's chest, and his body jumped up.Wu Yue lay on the bed with a face like paper, without any response.

The doctor said coldly: "Come again!"

"Connect, second time!"

After another electric shock, Wu Yue still didn't respond.

Cheng Yuan watched this scene in horror, and all the memories flooded his head in an instant, Wu Yue's smiling face, grievance and tears, arrogant and unreasonable, heartless appearance all appeared before his eyes one by one, so real and so close.But at this time, Wu Yue was unconscious before his eyes, whether she was alive or dead was still unknown, and she was shot for her own sake.

At this time, the nurse panicked and reminded: "The heart rate is still dropping, 35, 30, and the blood pressure is 20!"

Cheng Yuan rushed up to push aside the medical staff, suddenly knelt down beside Wu Yue, took Wu Yue's hand and shouted in a choked voice: "I order you, come back to life! Come back to life, Wu Yue...you saved me, don't use this kind of medicine again." Find a way to punish me... Wu Yue... I beg you..."

Lida listened to Cheng Yuan's shouts outside, covered her mouth in a daze, and then breathed heavily, leaning on the wall with her hands, oppressed uncomfortably.Seeing the man he loves screaming heart-piercingly at another woman, no one can bear it.Lida wished so much that she was the one who was lying on the hospital bed, and that she was the one who took the shot for Cheng Yuan. Even if she died, she would not hesitate and was willing.

Those deep loves are so unreasonable.

Cheng Yuan's yelling was still coming out, and his pleading voice made Lida's heart twitch. At this very moment, Lida felt that she had experienced life and death.The heartache was unscrupulous, eroding every inch of her body and suffocating her.

"I beg you, come back to life, Wu Yue! Give me a chance to redeem my sins, Wu Yue! Come back to life, I'll give you whatever you want..."

Wu Yue's hand moved, and the nurse shouted in surprise: "Signs of life, blood pressure has risen!"

The doctor immediately entered the operation state, "Continue the operation! Hemostat!"

Both the doctor and the nurse stared fixedly at Cheng Yuan. Cheng Yuan knew that he was in the way, so he quickly got up and stepped back, watching helplessly as the nurse clamped the blood vessel with a hemostat, and the doctor's surgical forceps penetrated into Wu Yue's wound.

Cheng Yuan was so sad that he couldn't bear to look at it.

After a long wait, only a "dang" sound was heard, and the bullet was finally taken out.

The doctor said lightly: "The operation is over, suture the wound!"

Cheng Yuan breathed a long sigh of relief, and sat down against the wall, his clothes were already soaked in sweat.

Lida understood, she was already in tears, she covered her mouth and turned around and ran away.

After running for a long distance crying, Lida stopped so tired, she cried and called Mr. Fei, "...he almost died, didn't he, did you do it?"

The other end of the phone seemed to be explaining something.

Lida couldn't listen at all, and said in tears: "Do you know? It was Wu Yue who saved him, and she was seriously injured because of him. Dad, I watched them rescue Wu Yue just now, and saw Cheng Yuan in pain. I even hope that the injured person is not Wu Yue, but me! You know, Cheng Yuan did nothing wrong, why did these people hurt him like this, why?!" Lida yelled loudly, throwing the phone hard on the ground.
