Chapter 804 The Role of Lobbyists
Shui Qingzhang was imprisoned in a very mysterious place.
It was so mysterious that when the car entered, Bai Qing and Li Yuanlang were moved into another car. The windows were black, and the partition erected in the middle prevented any view of the outside.
It was the same as covering his and Bai Qing's eyes.
Finally, the car stopped.
Li Yuanlang and Bai Qing walked down one after another, and under the guidance of a staff member, they walked into a gray three-story building.
There are dedicated personnel guarding the entrance to each floor. With Bai Qing there, a lot of unnecessary checks are saved, and you can smoothly walk into the corridor with rooms on both sides.
Not far away, the staff member stopped at the door of a room, knocked on the door, and someone opened it. The man whispered a few words to the person inside, and then Yuen Lang Bai Qing came in.
This is a suite, with two people in the outer room and the inner door open.
After Bai Qing came in, she whispered a few words to the two guards, and the two men nodded and left one after another.
Bai Qing pointed to the room inside and told Li Yuanlang, "He's right there. You go in, I'll guard outside." After saying that, she sat on the sofa and fiddled with her phone.
Shui Qingzhang was lying on the bed, staring at the ceiling, motionless.
I saw that his eye sockets were sunken, his beard was unkempt, his face was haggard, and his hair was all messy and turned white.
Thinking of the same situation that Li Yuanlang was in a few months ago, I couldn't help but feel a sore nose.
During this trip to the capital, Li Yuanlang understood that Shui Qingzhang was not as vicious and bad as he thought. There was a world of difference between him and the Gu family.
After all, he was also his son's grandfather. Li Yuanlang moved a chair, sat gently beside Shui Qingzhang's bed, and whispered: "Shui..."
I really didn't know what to call him, Li Yuanlang was speechless for a moment.
"Just call me by my name, nothing else is appropriate." Shui Qingzhang still looked at the ceiling, but he could tell it was Li Yuanlang.
"Uncle Shui." Li Yuanlang hesitated again and again, but still felt that this was the most appropriate name.
"What are you doing here!" Shui Qingzhang said angrily: "Is it a lobbyist sent by Lu Linsong or someone else?"
While Shui Qingzhang was talking, he never looked at Li Yuanlang.
"I'm not a lobbyist, I'm here to explain a truth to you."
"Haha." Shui Qingzhang couldn't help but sneered: "When did you take the teacher qualification certificate and start teaching me?"
"It's not a class, it's just to tell my truth." Li Yuanlang was not angry because of Shui Qingzhang's cold attitude, and still maintained a calm attitude.
"Over the years, you have taught me some principles of life and work. Our relationship as son-in-law is something I will never forget."
"To tell the truth, I hated you. Ever since I received Huang Liwei's call, I don't hate you so much anymore."
"I know that you have no choice but to do this. If you don't suppress me, others will do it. This is the process and result that I must suffer on the road to growth. I can't avoid it."
"Besides, I did make a mistake first. I am ashamed of Tingyue, I am ashamed of my children, and I am even more ashamed of the training and teachings you have given me over the past few years."
"It was you who opened the door for me to enter politics. What I am today is inseparable from your help and support. No matter what, I will always remember it in my heart."
"I can understand that you feel aggrieved and unfairly treated now. In fact, I had the same idea before I came here."
"Now I understand, you are taking the blame for Ye Mingren. There is nothing you can do about it. This is the reality. Ye Mingren and Xue Yongxiang are uncles, and they are my brother-in-law's father-in-law. No matter what he does, he will not suffer too much.
punish."
"But you are different. Whether you think about it or not, you will never be able to take off the label of the Gu family. No one can find fault with how you are dealt with."
"Uncle Shui, if you refuse to cooperate like this, in the end, it will be you who loses and suffers. The result is still the same and cannot be changed."
"You're looking for Bai Qing's father. What's the use of looking for him? He's already retreated. It's impossible for him to do anything for your sake."
"So, I ask you to think carefully, understand the situation at hand, and how to do it to your advantage."
Shui Qingzhang fell silent. Apparently, he had listened deeply to Li Yuanlang's words and was thinking about them carefully.
Taking this opportunity, Li Yuanlang lit a cigarette, placed it on Shui Qingzhang's mouth.
Shui Qingzhang actually opened his lips and took several greedy sips. He slowly sat up and twisted his body to face Li Yuanlang.
At this time, Li Yuanlang hurriedly looked for an ashtray, but found that there was no ashtray in the bedroom.
He was about to go outside to look for him, but was called back by Shui Qingzhang.
"There's a trash can next to the bedside table, just use that one."
At the same time, Shui Qingzhang smiled miserably, "I haven't smoked in a few days, and they don't allow me to smoke. Huh, a cigarette butt won't make me think too much. I won't be that stupid."
When Li Yuanlang heard this, he quickly took out his box of cigarettes. He regretted it. He would have bought a few cigarettes when he came.
Shui Qingzhang waved his hand bitterly, "I can smoke now, but I will confiscate it after you leave."
"Yuen Long, I'm very happy that you can tell me so many sincere words. Only in times of adversity can you see people's hearts. It's not easy for you to see me regardless of your past grudges. You also helped me untie my knot and made me understand the truth.
I know what I have to do."
As he said that, he took out another cigarette from the cigarette case that Li Yuanlang put on the bed and started smoking it directly against the fire.
Seeing him like this, Li Yuanlang felt very heavy, and his eye circles were actually moist.
He quickly blinked and wiped his eyes before asking again, "There is something I want to ask you..."
Shui Qingzhang blew out a puff of smoke and said, "Do you want to know the whereabouts of Gu Yu and Gu Qingqing?"
"It's not just them, there's also Tingyue." Li Yuanlang didn't lie. Shui Tingyue's spirit was stimulated, the Gu family suffered a disaster, and her whereabouts also made Li Yuanlang worried.
"Alas!" Shui Qingzhang sighed deeply: "After you rejected Gu Zhengchuan last time, he hated you to the core, but he was very interested in Tingyue and the child. On the day of my accident, Ah Cai took them away.
.As for Gu Qingqing, I only know that he has always followed Xiao Yan and is protected by the Xiao family."
"Ah Cai has committed suicide in front of the old man's grave." Li Yuanlang told the truth.
"Ah Cai is dead?" Shui Qingzhang immediately lost his composure after hearing this. "Doesn't it mean that Ting Yue, mother and son..."
Shui Qingzhang sucked his cigarette hard, and a huge pimple formed on his brow.
After a long while, he calmed down and said calmly: "No, it should be fine. Gu Zhengchuan is cruel and will never be inhumane. I can guarantee this."
"Gu Zhengchuan once said harsh words. If I don't agree to him, I will never see Gu Yu and Gu Qingming. Do you think he will..."
Li Yuanlang couldn't help but be a little worried. If Gu Zhengchuan became ruthless and ignored family ties, he could do anything.
Shui Qingzhang analyzed: "He can't. No matter what, Tingyue and the children are his relatives. The most important thing is that he is the most practical person and likes the exchange of interests. To tell you the truth, the Gu Zhengchuan problem is not included.
If it’s too big, at least you can save your life, but it’s very dangerous if you go into the valley.”
"He!" Li Yuanlang was shocked, "What's his reason?"
"This bastard actually hooked up with a foreign organization and was brainwashed by others to do bad things that offended the country. This is an unforgivable crime. At present, it seems that he is very likely to be severely tried. Yuen Long, if you have the chance
, it is best to meet Gu Zhengchuan, he will definitely know their whereabouts."
"Meet him?" Li Yuanlang shook his head, "It's not within my power."
After pondering for a moment, Li Yuanlang asked again: "Didn't you think of measures to protect Tingyue, mother and son?"
"Blame me!" Shui Qingzhang blamed himself: "I was too confident. I thought I was not involved and resigned voluntarily just to protect myself. Who would have thought..."
It's too late to say anything. There is no regret medicine in life.
The two of them asked and answered questions, and a long time passed before they knew it.
Bai Qing walked in slowly, glanced at Shui Qingzhang, and finally cast her eyes on Li Yuanlang, reminding: "It's almost over, it's ten minutes longer than expected. Yuen Long, we should go."
"Okay." Li Yuanlang stood up, and Shui Qingzhang immediately took out another cigarette, asked Li Yuanlang to light it for him, and took a big puff without taking a breath.
Seeing him like this, Li Yuanlang felt sad again.
He stood there without moving until Shui Qingzhang finished smoking the cigarette as quickly as possible. Li Yuanlang patted the back of Shui Qingzhang's hand and turned around reluctantly to leave.
