    Chapter 107

    Chen Shilu had just left the hospital, and Chi Huang also went to apply for discharge, but was forcibly sent back to the ward by his attending doctor.

    Chi Huang didn’t give up and contacted his assistant urgently.

    While Xiao Zhao advised him to listen to the doctor’s advice and take good care of his injuries, he couldn’t resist Chi Huang’s tough words and pushed him to the parking lot on the pretense of pushing him out for a walk.Before the medical staff chased him out, they loaded Chi Huang into the nanny car and drove out of the hospital.

    The car drove straight to his house. Chi Huang felt uneasy when he thought of Zuo Yifan on the way.

    He regretted it very much. If he had known that such a day would come, he would never have provoked others and caused so much trouble for himself out of thin air.But if there was no one else, how could he know what he wanted? Chen Shilu meant so much to him?

    But then again, it’s easy to get rid of Zuo Yifan.

    Zuo Yifan always regarded his words as “imperial edict”. If he told him to get out, he would definitely run away far away.

    Besides, when he let Zuo Yifan live in his house, he used the reason of “taking care of him” and paid him five times his salary. In the end, the relationship between the two was just an employment relationship.As long as he paid off his salary, Zuo Yifan would naturally leave.

    But Zuo Yifan must have discovered some of his privacy after living in his house for so long. What if he was exposed to the outside world after leaving?Chi Huang thought, how about asking Zhu Changyi to help him solve it… He bit his nails like a rodent for a while, and finally gave up the idea.If Zhu Changyi is asked to help, he will definitely interfere in his own personal affairs in the future.

    What Zuo Yifan didn’t dare to say, Chi Huang thought, the worst he could do was threaten him. A cowardly man like him would be the easiest to shut up.

    But what Chen Shilu said was to wait for them to “get together and part ways.”What is a good get-together and a good break-up?The acquaintance between him and Zuo Yifan certainly cannot be considered a “easy reunion”, so the separation does not necessarily have to be a “easy separation”.

    Xiao Zhao could tell that he was in a bad mood and asked with concern: “Teacher Chi, do you feel uncomfortable? How about we go back to the hospital?”

    Chi Huang’s thoughts were interrupted and he raised his head and asked him: “Does your bank card have a transfer limit?”

    “I guess there is, maybe two hundred thousand or something.”

    “That’s it.”

    Xiao Zhao was swearing in his heart, but on the outside he was still nice and asked Chi Huang: “Are you in need of money for something urgent?”

    Chi Huang didn’t say anything, he just took out his phone and asked Xiao Zhao to help him connect the charging cable.

    Finally arriving at the downstairs of his house, Xiao Zhao sent Chi Huang into the elevator. Chi Huang refused to let him follow him up: “Wait for me downstairs. I will call you later and you can come up again.”

    “But is your body convenient now?”

    Chi Huang turned the wheel flexibly with one hand and closed the elevator door.

    Zuo Yifan was pleasantly surprised when he opened the door and saw Chi Huang. Then he saw his arms and legs in plaster, and his face was full of pity: “You are discharged from the hospital so soon?” He put his hand and pushed Chi Huang into the room, “Why are you alone and no one sends you off? You should have asked me to pick you up.”

    Chi Huang entered the house and took a quick look. There were some differences between the house and his memory.If you look carefully, there is no change, but it is very clean and tidy. In addition, the vegetables in front of the window have grown taller and are green.

    “Why did we get into a car accident? I’m worried about you. Do you feel any pain?” Zuo Yifan was afraid that Chi Huang would find him annoying, so he didn’t dare to say more on the phone. Now that he was back, he dared to express his worries with confidence.

    Chi Huang saw the rice bowl on the dining table and moved his wheelchair forward: “Are you eating?”

    Seeing this, Zuo Yifan hurriedly pushed him to the table: “I just made it and haven’t eaten it yet. Have you eaten?”

    Seeing that there were only two plates of vegetables and a bowl of white rice on the table, and the vegetables were grown by himself, Chi Huang asked, “Why do you eat so poorly?”

    “I’m the only one here, so I can just deal with two people.” Zuo Yifan said quickly, “There’s everything in the refrigerator. Whatever you want to eat, I’ll do it now.”

    “Don’t bother, I’ll just take one bite. Just have as much rice as you can.”

    The vegetables you grow yourself are different. Just stir-fry them and they taste sweet.Probably because he was worried that there would not be enough food, Zuo Yifan ate very slowly, which meant that he had to eat before Chi Huang.

    Chi Huang put down the bowl, and Zuo Yifan scooped the rest into his own bowl and ate it.

    Chi Huang looked at him for a while and suddenly said: “Actually, you are quite good.”

    Zuo Yifan was stunned, stopped chewing, and raised his eyes.He didn’t know what Chi Huang meant by this, and he didn’t dare to believe it completely because he was afraid that Tianzao would be followed by a big stick.

    Seeing his expression, Chi Huang felt helpless: “To be honest, you are better than many people. Diligence, gentleness and kindness are all good qualities, but sometimes I am too pessimistic inside.” He sighed deeply, “It’s also my fault. I didn’t treat you well, and I don’t have the ability to love others.”

    Zuo Yifan swallowed what was in his mouth and said quickly: “No, don’t say that. You are very good to me. I think so from the bottom of my heart.”

    “You have this illusion because you really haven’t been treated well by others. When you meet someone who truly loves you, you will know what it means to be ‘treating you well’.”

    “There won’t be such a person.” Zuo Yifan lowered his head.

    “Yes, because you are a very good person.”

    Zuo Yifan raised his head again and looked at Chi Huang blankly for a while: “You are a little different today.” In fact, Zuo Yifan felt it from the moment he entered the room.

    Chi Huang was covered in injuries and must have been in pain, but he was not irritable or angry at all. His whole person had a relaxed and joyful atmosphere, as if a heavy burden had been lifted.And those beautiful, cold eyes suddenly became deep and passionate. When they looked at him, they made him feel flustered and made him feel uncomfortable all over.

    “Really, you saw it too?” Chi Huang smiled, not the sneer and ridicule Zuo Yifan was accustomed to.He smiled like a flower, bright and brilliant.

    He didn’t care at all how dazzling his smile was, and said briskly: “Because I have reconciled with the person I like, I want to be with him. I really want to be with him, and I want to know how to love myself and love others.”

    Zuo Yifan lowered his head, tears also falling down.

    Chi Huang put away his smile, pulled a tissue and pressed it on Zuo Yifan’s eyes: “I can’t love you because I really have too much time to take care of myself. You don’t love me either, because we are the same. Two frustrated people joining a group to keep warm is not a solution to the problem.” He raised his face and looked directly into his tearful eyes, “Zuo Yifan, you have to find the person who makes you feel that life is precious and life is beautiful.”

    Zuo Yifan took the tissue from Chi Huang and said nothing else, just choked with sobs: “I’ll pack up my things after collecting the bowls, and I’ll move out within today.”

    Chi Huang held his hand. At this time, a message came from his mobile phone placed next to the table. Chi Huang asked him to read the text message first.

    With tears in his eyes, Zuo Yifan finally counted the zeros for a long time. He was so shocked that he forgot to cry: “Why did you give me so much money?”

    “Based on your daily consumption, this money is enough for you to be eighty years old. You don’t have to move out. You can live here as long as you want. I will always pay the rent.” Chi Huang held his hand. “I can only help you solve the problem of survival, so that you can at least take a breath and have time to think and pursue what you want. I really hope that you can experience joy and happiness one day.”

    “No, Chi Huang, I can’t have it.” Zuo Yifan tried hard to take out his hand.

    Chi Huang held on tightly: “You have to accept it. This is the only thing I can do for you, and it is also the way I can reduce my guilt.”

    “You don’t have to feel guilty, you don’t owe me anything.”

    “I also feel that I don’t owe you, but it just doesn’t make sense. I feel like I have to pay something for you.” Chi Huang suddenly thought of Chen Shilu saying something similar that night on the mountain. He murmured, “Maybe it’s because I’ve grown up.”

    Zuo Yifan knew very well that Chi Huang didn’t love him from the beginning, and he also knew that he couldn’t keep him at all, but he still felt sad.He couldn’t bring Chi Huang happiness, thinking that he could at least catch his sadness, but now, he is almost losing even this sadness.

    Chi Huang called Xiao Zhao to come up and help him pack his things, and Zuo Yifan was also helping.Because he was very familiar with the storage at home, he packed up very quickly. Within a few hours, he had packed up all Chi Huang’s things.

    Xiao Zhao moved the luggage to the car, and Zuo Yifan came out of the house and gave Chi Huang a box.

    He opened it and found that it was the watch he had given to Chen Shilu before, but the surface was cracked and parts fell out.

    Zuo Yifan said: “I don’t know where to take it for repair.”

    Chi Huang was surprised that he and Chen Shilu had not confided a word to Zuo Yifan.Because he was angry, Zuo Yifan helped him take away all the clothes Chen Shilu sent back and threw them away, except for this: “Why do you keep this thing?”

    “I don’t know, I think you’re going to need it one day.”

    Chi Huang held the box, pulled Zuo Yifan into his arms, and hugged him hard with his still intact right hand: “Thank you for this time…”

    Zuo Yifan nestled in front of him and closed his eyes.This was the first time Chi Huang hugged him in the few months they had lived together.

    He always thought that Chi Huang was covered in thorns. The closer he got, the deeper he would be pierced.But he didn’t care, he was even obsessed with the pain that made flesh and blood fuse.Only now did he realize that Chi Huang was not just cold and hard, his embrace was so warm and powerful.

    This feeling made it impossible for him to even say a word of apology.

    After moving the things downstairs, Chi Huang breathed a sigh of relief. This should be regarded as what Chen Shilu said was “a happy reunion and a happy separation”.

    He looked up at the sky and saw that it was not dark yet, so he couldn’t wait to go to Chen Shilu’s house.From those words in the morning to now, the day has not ended yet, and Chen Shilu can’t wait for this.

    As a result, they were stopped by Zhu Changyi’s car as soon as they left the gate of the community.

    “Come on, Teacher Chi, the press conference is ready. You can read the manuscript carefully in the car.”

    “Press conference? When did I say I wanted to attend?”

    “You have to attend your own press conference. The matter has reached a fever pitch, and it’s time to clarify to the public the whole story of your illegitimate child.”

    Chi Huang’s mind was filled with questions. Didn’t Zhu Changyi want to terminate the contract with him?Is this a way to crack public opinion?But he hasn’t said anything yet, and he is in a hurry to go to Chen Shilu’s house today. Who leaked his whereabouts?He glanced at Xiao Zhao, who touched his nose awkwardly.

    Chi Huang didn’t have time to lecture his assistant, so he had to find a way to escape quickly: “In two days, look at me like this, I have to go back to the hospital first.”

    “We also saw that you were injured, so the press conference has been postponed again and again. Since you have the strength to run out of the hospital now, holding a press conference is definitely not a problem.”

    Manager Yu stuck his head out of the cab: “You are the easiest to gain sympathy from the public now. We have already announced that you were injured during competition training. We just blame it on public opinion affecting your mood.”

    Chi Huang’s leg was broken and he couldn’t even run, so he was pushed into the car.Zhu Changyi didn’t get into his Bentley, but got into Chi Huang’s nanny car and squeezed in among a pile of luggage.

    He asked Chi Huang straight to the point: “Do you have any tangible evidence that your mother, Chi Jinxian, is an anonymous shareholder of JAC Group? Such as agency holding contracts, past stock dividends, or other witnesses who know about this?”

    The more Chi Huang listened, the more he frowned: “Who told you all this?”

    “Chen Shilu told me.” After speaking, Zhu Changyi added, “He really feels sorry for you being bullied like this, and begged me to use legal weapons to help you.”
