The Taming of the Ruffian Hero - Chapter 202
Chapter 202 (Wenxi, It’s My Fault) Lin Wenxi Frames Chen Tianjiao and Zhao Yuan by Hurting Himself
There was a big change in BC Company. Chen Wanxin resigned as president and served as vice president of the company. Chen Yuanxi, the former vice president, took office immediately as president of the company.
At the same time, a piece of encouraging news came from YH Company. Through the issuance examination committee, the company had published the Listing Announcement, and submitted it to the exchange for approval. The company would be listed soon.
Chen Wanxin, feeling bored, was sitting in the office, holding her chin, and looking out at the figure who had changed his duty place to the downstairs of her office. It rained sparsely after the Qingming Festival, but the man stood still there. It seemed that it had become a habit to see the man through the window of the office almost every day.
“In the future, security guards are allowed to take umbrellas when they are on duty.” Chen Wanxin was in charge of it and sent out the email.
After a while, Luo Yang came in and said, “Wanxin, I got the news that Chen Yuanxi felt uncomfortable when he saw a picture of the murder scene on the Internet just now.”
“Is that right? We finally know his weakness,” Chen Wanxin smiled and said, “It’s up to you that what to do next.”
At night, Zhang Dong and Zheng Kai were standing downstairs.
“Why haven’t you been caught?” Zheng Kai asked curiously, “You are still wanted.”
“There are many cases in this bustling town. Few people still care about the case happened seven years ago.” Zhang Dong smiled.
“You’re standing here carelessly and wear a pair of sunglasses at any time to show of yourself. Aren’t you afraid that someone will call the police?”
“Even if there are police now, it’s still unknown that whether they could catch me, Zhang Shouxi.”
“You even changed you name to such a…”
“Just like you, who wish can change name to Zheng Shouxin.”
“I’m not that disgusting. I’ll change it to Zheng Aixin at most.”
“It’s so girly,” Zhang Dong said with a smile.
“Hey, I know you follow Wenxi every day. Tell me how he drove Wanxin out of the position?” asked Zheng Kai.
“Ability is everything,” said Zhang Dong.
“F*ck you!” Zheng Kai was speechless. Suddenly, they heard a scream upstairs. It was Chen Yuanxi’s voice! They look at each other and run away.
Chen Yuanxi stared at the package in front of him, unable to speak.
Inside the package was a bloody broken arm.
Zhang Dong weighed it and said, “It’s plastic.”
Zheng Kai touched the paint and looked at the cover, saying, “I’ll check the place around the company. The rest needs to be handled by the police.”
Chen Yuanxi waved and said, “No. I know who sent it.”
Zheng Kai looked at Chen Yuanxi with great confusion. Chen Yuanxi just shook his head weakly and said, “Zheng Kai, go back earlier, or I will fire you.”
“Can’t you say something new?” asked Zheng Kai.
“Or I’ll fire your whole team,” said Chen Yuanxi.
Zheng Kai held a pen in his mouth and went out with hands clasped at the back.
“Wenxi, who sent it?” asked Zhang Dong.
“The only person who can observe me at such a close distance is my secretary, who is sent by Chen Wanxin,” Chen Yuanxi said, “Let’s go back first.”
That night, Chen Yuanxi was almost sleepless all night.
“Wenxi, may I make a request?” Zhang Dong was in a hurry.
“Say it.”
“Please come with me.”
Chen Yuanxi was puzzled why Zhang Dong took him to the riverside at night. The riverside lights were bright and dazzling. The wind there smelt fishy, which he really did not like.
They seemed to go back to that night and sit in the same place.
“Sleep, Wenxi.”
Two sweaters were padded on the deck chair. Zhang Dong made Chen Yuanxi’s head lean on his arms, and covered Chen Yuanxi with his coat.
Chen Yuanxi felt tears in his eyes.
The river breeze was blowing, and it was cool in early summer. It seemed that Chen Yuanxi had been intoxicated with a piece of hypnotic music and fell asleep slowly. In the past, only when he and Zhao Yuan embraced each other and fell asleep could he be so tranquil.
Suddenly, two arms were put around Zhang Dong’s waist, who was a little surprised. Looking at the sleeping man in his arms, Zhang Dong smiled.
The next day, Chen Yuanxi did not go to work. He only told Chen Wanxin to manage the company and dismissed his secretary.
On the third day, Chen Yuanxi still did not come.
After Chen Tianjiao learned about the situation, he saw his pale son in the hospital.
“He can’t sleep at night, and is often awakened by nightmares. Our psychiatrist doesn’t work with him. He resists hypnosis, and it’s also hard to hypnotize him,” the attending physician said helplessly.
Until now, Chen Tianjiao knew that his only son had been threatened.
“You have always been in good health and decisive. How could you be scared like that?” Chen Tianjiao stroked Chen Yuanxi’s head, and his eyes were full of anxiety.
“I failed to protect the young master.” Zhang Dong took hold of his hair and blamed himself.
Chen Tianjiao yelled, “Of course it’s your fault!”
“It’s not his fault… Dad, according to the rules, private bodyguards are not allowed to enter our office,” Chen Yuanxi said with a trembling voice.
The attending doctor said, “We checked his medical history and consulted his doctors in the United States, who said that he was really easy to be frightened. His body is in good condition. It’s a psychological problem. His psychiatrists in the United States also said that he was better when drugs and psychotherapy were combined. Moreover, it is said that Mr. Chen’s bedroom is never equipped with lights, which may have something to do with long-term psychological depression.”
“My son, I thought you were always in good health. Why didn’t you mention those to me?” Chen Tianjiao asked.
When Chen Yuanxi heard that, his tears rushed out.
Chen Tianjiao was deeply grieved and took his hand. For a moment, he did not know what to do.
“I miss my mother. I don’t think I belong here.” Chen Yuanxi said with sobs.
“I’m looking for her. I have tried my best.” Chen Tianjiao seemed to be defeated in a moment, and his gray hair was dazzling under the setting sun.
Zhang Dong could not help saying while frowning, “Boss, young master has been stopping me from telling you. I’ll tell you the truth today!”
“Zhang Dong, get out of here. You’re not allowed to talk here!” Chen Yuanxi said in a sharp voice. Because of being angry, he suddenly felt dizzy.
Chen Tianjiao hurried to go out with Zhang Dong to have a talk.
“Not long after the young master came home, Wanxin uploaded the pictures of Lin Ziwei’s corpse into his computer. I heard that when the young master once had a nightmare, he kept saying earth and debris flow, and almost choked to death, but nobody cared about him… This is what I heard from Brother Fu,” Zhang Dong said, “After all, the young master has lived with Lin Ziwei for 19 years. Although their relationship is not deep, Lin Ziwei has never let him see those bloody people, so he has never been stimulated like that! A few days ago, the disgusting thing in his office even frightened me, not to mention him.”
“Well, did you take pictures of it? Did you call the police?” asked Chen Tianjiao.
“We took photos, but Yuanxi refused to call the police and said he knows who sent it to him. He only fired his secretary, who should be sent by Wan Xin when he came to the company,” said Zhang Dong.
“Young master… don’t want to ruin the harmony,” said Zhang Dong, who was a little depressed.
“All right, I see.” Chen Tianjiao frowned slightly.
Chen Yuanxi indeed cannot sleep at night, even in the hospital. However, the man that showed up in the hospital that night might be able to help him sleep well for several nights.
Zhao Yuan finally heard everything. He hurried back from City G. It was late at night when he came back. At that time, people of the Chen Family had left, and only Zhang Dong and four bodyguards were standing on guard faithfully.
“Go there and have a rest. Leave it to me.” Zhang Dong waved and threw two packets of cigarettes to the bodyguards, who then retreated quietly and went to smoke to divert themselves from boredom.
As soon as Zhao Yuan entered, Chen Yuanxi woke up from his bed and called for Zhang Dong.
“It’s me,” Zhao Yuan said softly.
On hearing Zhao Yuan’s voice, Chen Yuanxi calmed down.
Zhao Yuan held Chen Yuanxi’s hand and covered them on his face. Then he put Chen Yuanxi’s hand into his arms and said, “I’m sorry, Wenxi.”
Chen Yuanxi drew back his hand, silent and speechless.
“At this time, shouldn’t Zhang Dong be here? After all, he is close to me and can benefit first, doesn’t he?” asked Chen Yuanxi.
“Wenxi, have a good rest. It’s all my fault.” Zhao Yuan gently stroked Chen Yuanxi’s forehead, kissed him deeply, and spent half an hour lying in bed with him. When he left, Chen Yuanxi had already fallen asleep.
“Only you can do it.” Zhang Dong passed a cigarette to Zhao Yuan and smiled.
“What’s the matter?” asked Zhao Yuan.
Zhang Dong repeated what he said to Chen Tianjiao.
“Go in and accompany him. He will wake up at midnight, but I can’t help him. These men are all my brothers, and can be trusted,” said Zhang Dong.
That night, Zhao Yuan embraced Chen Yuanxi for a whole night and refused to let go.
The next day, Chen Yuanxi opened his eyes, hugged Zhao Yuan’s neck, and smiled sweetly to him. Zhao Yuan immediately decided not to say what Shu Xiaoman said to him.
Shu Xiaoman was injured when she helped Chen Yuanxi to deal with the affairs, and asked for leave. However, she did not come to the company for more than a month. Later, she said something had happened to her family and applied to retain the job but suspend the salary, and asked one of her subordinates to temporarily replace her. Before asking for leave, Shu Xiaoman told Zhao Yuan everything Chen Yuanxi asked her to do.
“I will only tell you about Wenxi. I will not betray him if I talk with you, will I?” Shu Xiaoman only left the last sentence when she left.
Zhou Nannan cared about Zhao Yuan and Lin Wenxi from time to time, for fear that they might quarrel. Wang Zhengjuan also tentatively inquired about the situation. Fortunately, Zhao Yuan played to the score and successfully handled it. However, Lin Wenxi deceived Wang Zhengjuan again and again, framed her parents, and ignored their safety, which made Zhao Yuan very sad.
But all these things were not important when he saw Chen Yuanxi’s pale face.
Zhao Yuan disappeared automatically in the daytime, and came to the hospital in the evening. He accompanied Chen Yuanxi for three whole nights, who miraculously recovered. The next day, Zhao Yuan rushed to Inner Mongolia because something had happened there. The two were distressed at parting.
“Wenxi, I don’t think you need to use this to Zhao Yuan,” Zhang Dong said with a smile.
Chen Yuanxi chuckled, and looked a little shy. Since the day they knew each other, Chen Yuanxi realized that there was no other way to deal with Zhao Yuan.
“By the way, we found out something about the old lady,” Zhang Dong said happily.
“Although the old woman lost all her memory, she still remembers her own daughter, Liu Xuehua!” said Zhang Dong.
“What! Liu Xuehua!” Chen Yuanxi was so shocked that his whole body had goose bumps for a while.
