Chapter 417: Still Wanting to Make a Comeback
Chapter 417: Still Wanting to Make a Comeback
at dusk.
The sun finally came out in London.
Hyde Park, planted with large sycamores, lime trees and oaks, was covered with a layer of maple syrup by the slanting sunset.
Zheng Yu put his hands into his sleeves and walked aimlessly along the tree-lined avenue.
Groups of people gathered on the surrounding green grass.
They had Western faces, spoke their own language, and were enthusiastically discussing an open-air concert held by a band some time ago.
Zheng Yu was in the middle of it.
Lost like a butterfly that has strayed into the cold winter.
suddenly.
The cell phone in my pocket rang.
The sound of the famous guzheng piece "Spring Dawn on Snowy Mountains", which depicts the vitality of all things, attracted many foreigners to turn around and pay attention.
Zheng Yu has a soft personality and doesn't want to be too conspicuous.
then.
Her pretty face turned red, and she quickly shrank her neck and ran away quickly.
I thought it was her dad calling.
When the call was connected, I found out it was an international long-distance call.
The caller was Ji Heng.
"Xiaoyu, I've been busy with family matters recently, so I haven't had much time to contact you."
"How have you been lately?"
The familiar voice and caring tone finally brought a little belated comfort to Zheng Yu, who was wandering in a foreign land and felt uneasy.
Her sweet voice flowed softly from her delicate throat.
"I'm fine!"
"What about you?"
Zheng Yu silently calculated in his mind.
London is currently in Daylight Saving Time.
There is a seven-hour time difference with China.
It should be midnight at Ji Heng's place.
Zheng Yu held the phone tightly: "You haven't rested yet?"
"Aren't you tired or sleepy?"
Ji Heng is in a good mood tonight.
During the previous meal, Kidson had intentionally or unintentionally suggested that part of the family business could be handed over to him to manage.
This is undoubtedly good news.
When Ji Heng is in a good mood, he will not hesitate to use his skills to coax women.
"No rest!"
"It's the middle of the night and you're not by my side, how can I sleep?"
"When you're gone, the house I live in seems so empty!"
"I miss you, but I can only stare at the little things you left behind!"
"Ugh!"
"I never thought that I would be in such a state once you left!"
Zheng Yu is not used to life abroad.
Zheng Yiping never gave up his great cause. He went out early and came back late every day, leaving her alone in the house and not caring about her.
Apart from playing the guzheng, practicing calligraphy and arranging flowers every day, what she did most was sitting on a bench in Hyde Park and watching others having fun with envy.
Fortunately, Ji Heng would talk to her from time to time.
It won't make her so lonely that she collapses.
Now, Ji Heng said he missed her.
The confusion and helplessness that Zheng Yu had accumulated during this period suddenly burst out.
The pretty and obedient girl's eyes were filled with tears.
She clutched the hem of her clothes tightly, spoke in a low voice, trying hard to suppress her sobs.
She didn't want Ji Heng to know that she was crying.
"I miss you so much too!"
"Aheng."
"When will you come to see me?"
"I really miss you so much!"
Ji Heng was originally just coaxing Zheng Yu as usual.
You won’t die if you tell a few lies.
If he really wants to go to Country Y just to appease a woman, that definitely won't work.
and.
He coaxed Zheng Yu because of the billions of assets that Zheng Yiping had transferred out.
Once the money is in hand, who will care about the life or death of this clingy little lily!
Ji Heng emphasized his busyness in the same old way.
"Xiaoyu, you know."
"My dad is planning to hand over some of his business to me to hone my skills, and I really can't leave."
"If I really had time, I would have flown to find you as soon as possible."
"You are the woman I love. How can I bear to see you alone in a foreign land?"
"Or do you want me to abandon my own future and continue to have an affair with you?"
Ji Heng knows Zheng Yu too well.
He knew Zheng Yu's character of not wanting to cause trouble to others.
Every time he exaggerated the seriousness of the situation, Zheng Yu would spontaneously restrain her desire and fall silent.
This time is no exception.
only.
This time, in addition to the usual silence, there was also a very subtle sound.
It's like the echo of tears falling on your face.
Ji Heng realized something.
The good mood at the beginning is gone.
The whole person started to feel irritable.
He wanted to hang up the phone quickly.
Then he actively switched to the question he wanted to ask.
"Where's your dad?"
"What is he busy with?"
"Logically speaking, he has so much money, he should be living a comfortable life."
"Why are you still busy all day long?"
Mentioned Zheng Yiping.
Zheng Yu's sorrow was slightly interrupted.
She wiped the tears from her face with the back of her hand.
He said cautiously, "Dad has been busy with his career."
"He...hasn't given up yet."
Ji Heng heard what he wanted to hear.
His eyes were gloomy.
"Could it be that he still wants to make a comeback?"
Zheng Yu did not deny it.
She is a thoughtful girl.
I have seen Zheng Yiping meeting foreign guests more than once.
From the documents placed in the study and the content of the guests' conversations, it is not difficult to infer that her adoptive father is trying to re-establish new political and business relations in Country Y.
Zheng Yu reported what he knew to Ji Heng.
"Do you know the Cicero Group in Country Y?"
“It’s considered an independent policy consulting firm.”
“Some people in China also like to call them lobbying agencies.”
"This organization has close ties with the conservative/labor/liberal democratic parties in Country Y."
“My father has always wanted to tie himself to the cabinet officials of this country through this institution.”
Ji Heng knew that many wealthy people in China went abroad every year.
We also know that these wealthy people will choose certain paths in order to maintain their wealth.
For example, actively supporting charitable activities.
Doing charity does not mean really doing charity.
The purpose was to provide political donations to certain members of parliament in a reasonable and legal manner in order to obtain invitations to attend the Cabinet Office Business Forum.
Ji Heng knew that Zheng Yiping was not someone who was willing to be lonely.
But I didn't expect that the other party would act so quickly.
If he hadn't asked so often, Zheng Yiping might have had a chance to make a comeback in the future.
Zheng Yiping has his own ambitions.
Ji Heng has his own business empire.
Otherwise, these billions will be thrown into the Anglo-Saxon base in Country Y by Zheng Yiping like toilet paper.
Otherwise, this money will be turned into the original accumulation for him to stir up a bloody storm in the Chinese capital market.
He, Ji Heng, would never let the former happen!
The man's face was as gloomy as water.
The originally mild tone suddenly changed.
Zheng Yu was frightened by the harsh questioning.
"Zheng Yu!"
"What did I tell you before?"
"You must take your destiny into your own hands!"
"Have you forgotten what Zheng Yiping did to your biological parents?"
"He keeps you by his side. What's his plan? Don't you know?"
"Some words, some things, how many times do I have to remind you before you truly learn them?"
"Zheng Yiping has never treated you as his own daughter!"
"If you don't get rid of him completely, you will never have a peaceful day!"
"Please wake up and stop living in this dream, okay?!"
Zheng Yu was not unaware that Ji Heng had hinted to her many times to kill her adoptive father with her own hands.
But how could she bring herself to do such a thing?
After all, he is the father who raised me for many years!
Zheng Yu's mind was extremely confused.
"Ah Heng, think about it again!"
"May I?"
"Let me think about it again... I... I..."
Ji Heng interrupted her directly.
"What is there to think about? How long do you have to think about it?"
"Didn't you just say you missed me and wanted to see me?"
"If you can't bring yourself to do it, I'll bear this sin for you!"
"Everyone comes from heaven and goes to hell, and just happens to pass through the world!"
"I'll accompany you on the road to hell!"
