Chapter 627: Between life and death
My car was temporarily requisitioned by a woman in red. I had no car available and had to stand under the platform of the community and wait. I picked up my phone again and dialed it to Micai, but the result was still frightened. Her phone was still turned off.
My world suddenly became slow. Between the left and right of the crowd, I passed through the lights of the city and looked around in the scattered areas... But the passing vehicles were indifferent in the roar. I opened all my tentacles like a reptile, waiting for the rotating wheel to stop here. But under the shadow of the street lights, the howling wind nailed me to death between reality and illusion. As everything familiar in front of me became strange, I gradually couldn't feel my existence, leaving only the flashes and darkness and the filthy sewers flowing around me... The whole world is in my senses, completely despairing... despair!
Finally a beam of light stopped beside me. In my heavy breathing, I opened the car door and said the word Zhuomei vaguely over and over again. When the car took me away from the intertwined light, the whole city seemed to be squeezed into a ball, full of twisted light and stiff walls... I leaned on the car chair, closed my eyes, and escaped everything here...
When I called the woman in red with confusion and suffocation, the response to me was still the unanswered prompt... My panic spread without restrictions!
I couldn't calculate how long it took me, and the taxi finally took me to Zhuomei Building. Before the car could stop, I opened the door and ran towards Zhuomei...
I stopped and saw several familiar figures in the parking lot 50 meters away. I couldn't hear what they were saying, but I could see the smiles on their faces. I would never forget their expressions in my life...
They entered the car and drove in the opposite direction of mine one after another. My nerves felt like tearing pain. I saw Fang Yuan and Mi Lan among these people, Xiang Chen, the woman named Chu Xinrui, and Mi Zhongde... The direction and place they left were full of victory...
I don't want to regard everything I see as real... I am afraid that life will be broken into the illusion of human nature, but I feel desperately that this is not an illusion. Everything I long for is only one step away from breaking. At this moment, there is only one person who can tell me what happened today.
Time tear my pain and approached the truth step by step. I finally saw Chen Jingming coming out of the staff passage in the mall... He found me in the crowd and walked towards me with heavy steps.
He stood in front of me for a long time, and finally lit a cigarette and said, "Tianyang Group's plan to invest in Zhuomei was rejected by the board of directors... The one who replaced Tianyang Group as Zhuomei's investor was a large investment group in France. This group was brought back by your brother named Xiang Chen. They have long been interested in Zhuomei's resources and powerful channel power accumulated in the traditional retail field, and hope to get a share of the pie in China's e-commerce field... This is a long-planned action...Mr. Mi lost, and it was completely defeated... very thorough!!"
Chen Jingming swallowed his saliva in pain, as if he had grown a lot in the blink of an eye. His life in Zhuomei has come to an end with Mi Cai's loss of power, and he has become the most direct victim in this factional dispute...
I couldn't care about these things anymore, grabbed his shoulder, and asked, "Where is Micai? Where is Micai? ...Is she still in the company?"
Chen Jingming shook his head and said, "Zhaoyang, it was you who destroyed Mr. Mi... It was your ignorance that destroyed everything Mr. Mi worked hard to manage. I have said a long time ago that Fang Yuan is a person who is ill-intentioned. If he was willing to stand on Mr. Mi's side, maybe there would be no ending like this..."
I asked tremblingly, "He...he did some...what?"
Chen Jingming looked at me with cold eyes: "At today's board meeting, Mi Zhongde and his daughter, failed to go public, and Mr. Mi's mistaken introduction of zh investment, made Zhuomei accused President Mi on the grounds that he had put Zhuomei in an unprecedented crisis..." Speaking of this, Chen Jingming laughed bitterly: "......There are many trusted members left by the old chairman (Mi Zhongxin) in the board of directors. Of course, they tried to protect Mr. Mi, but they were alone... At this time, Fang Yuan became the key figure, but unfortunately... He left no room for Mr. Mi in front of the directors!! The accusation was that Mr. Mi's improper strategy led to Zhuomei's current sleepiness.
... And the Christmas event that changed Zhuomei also became Mi Lan's wise decision in his mouth. It was Mi Lan who led the event. It was Mi Lan who kept Zhuomei's foundation. He also accused Mi Zhong of having a strong personal tendency and obstructing the Christmas event, which almost made him, a hero, unable to stay in Zhuomei. Mi Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Long's wise decision in his mouth. But Mi Lan Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Zhong Yuan's wise man... Zhao Yang, you thought of it in the first place? The Christmas event you tried all your thoughts to help him become his weapon to attack Mr. Mi, leaving Mr. Mi without any power to fight back... Mr. Mi was too unfair... The only thing in front of her was the last way to resign from the blame!!"
I was shaking... The two brothers I trust most in my life actually conspired to murder the woman I love the most... And I am an accomplice! I made Mi Cai completely lose Zhuomei and the last entrusted me left by Mi Zhongxin... I am a sinner! The sin is unforgivable!...
My breath became intermittent, just standing there... Chen Jingming looked at me in despair and shook his head, walked around my body, and walked towards the parking lot. My world completely solidified in the suffocating cold... It was not until the phone rang in his pocket over and over again that it seemed that he could see the gap leading to the world from hell, but his body was still parked in hell and could not breathe.
I took out my cell phone and answered the phone. It was called by a woman in red. Her tone was anxious: "Zhaoyang, after coming out from Zhuomei, I was unable to follow Mi Cai. She drove like crazy. I lost it at an intersection... I have not found her until now!... Maybe you know where she went, find her as soon as possible!! Something will happen if she drives like that!!"
My heart seemed to be slashed after knife. I saw countless scenes. The more evil people laughed in the picture, the more real people were... I could feel the pain of Mi Cai under this evil smile. I said to the woman in red with my only remaining reason: "I'm in Zhuomei, come and find me..."
The phone was hung up instantly, and I was waiting for the arrival of the woman in red in a heart-wrenching pain.
......
It seemed as if I had walked in purgatory. I finally waited for the woman in red. After getting off the car, she handed the car key to me and said, "I don't have time to talk to you about what happened at Zhuomei's board meeting. You can drive to find Micai quickly... I'll ask my friends from the road administration to help me check the real-time road conditions video to see which direction she has gone. We will keep in touch at any time.
I nodded in a panic, got into the car in a panic, and put my phone on the center console of the car in a panic, fearing that I would miss out on the contact... and the woman in red also hurriedly got into a taxi and left this place full of sin and betrayal before me.
I started the car and subconsciously rushed to the old house. I didn't know where Mi Cai would go in despair, so I could only pin my hopes on the old house...
However, apart from the crowded buildings and the dim street lights, there was only one Trojan horse left. I did not find any trace of Mi Cai's return. My heart seemed to be trapped in the fusion of ice and fire... I might collapse at any time in the despair of not being able to find her.
If something happened to her today, I wouldn't want to live anymore... I'll die in this city without a sense of belonging, in the illusion of human nature, in the confession of no retreat...
I stepped on the accelerator with a heavy kick, and the engine roared tremblingly. The direction was not too late to correct. I instantly scraped the trash can on the roadside. The garbage filled the place I had just stayed, but I didn't know where my direction was next moment and where Micai was?...I was collapsing and crying... The brotherly relationship of nearly ten years has become a means of betrayal. The woman I want to protect has lost her living soul in this cruel method. Otherwise, how could she, who was indifferent, use this dangerous way to vent and tear apart in venting... In the tearing, I hated me from head to toe!!!... She would not forgive me! It was my blind trust in Fang Yuan, ruining the most important thing in her life!
How should I redeem it? How can I redeem it?
I no longer have any reason. On the black road, I frantically left this unrecognizable city behind... In the shadow of no light, I could not see the remaining brightness. The curves passed between the heavy trucks and the trucks. The speedometer on the trucks frantically issued a reminder of speeding over and over again. Life and death were floating between the lines... Gradually, there was only a flash of street lights left in my sight, and I bid farewell to me like a queue... I no longer have fear, either life or death!
The ringtone from the phone finally recalled my consciousness. After connecting, I heard the voice of a woman in red. She was so nervous that she was a little panting: "Zhaoyang, Mi Cai got on the expressway to Shanghai at 8:16. After driving about 60 kilometers, she did not appear in the road surveillance screen. I was afraid that something would happen to her, so hurry up... I have contacted the nearby highway traffic police brigade, but they may not be as fast as you!"
My thinking temporarily stagnated and became awake instantly. After hanging up the phone, I stepped on the accelerator and drove towards the entrance to the highway...
Extending the highway where there is no end, there is only numbness left in my body that is not dominated by thoughts, and only the eyes are looking at where Micai stays...
