In the evening, Zhong Guotao stood in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling window, looking down at the crowds of people swarming back and forth like ants downstairs. At this moment, an inexplicable sadness suddenly arose in his heart.
Through the previous phone call, the situation was irreversible and we had to prepare for the worst.
There is not much time left for him!
Jumao Group's main business is all domestic and deeply rooted. It may be difficult to transfer assets in a short period of time. According to the worst-case scenario, it is very likely that I have been targeted now.
Maybe he couldn't run anymore, but he didn't intend to run in the first place. For a man in his fifties, most of his life has passed and he has enjoyed everything he should enjoy, and he didn't want to run.
But my son is different. He is still young, so it is always right to let him go abroad to avoid the limelight.
If something really happened, there would be no need for my son to come back.
Of course, Zhong Guotao did not give up just yet. He had to struggle after all. If he survived, he would call his son back when the time comes. After all, no matter how good the country is abroad, it is not as good as his hometown.
Zhong Guotao has always been a resolute person, never procrastinating in anything he does. Once he has made a decision, he immediately takes action.
I picked up the phone and called my son who was far away in Shanghai.
"Something happened at home. Get the nearest flight back immediately!"
Zhong Xiaoyang was shocked when he heard this and said hurriedly: "Dad, what's wrong? What happened at home?"
"You come back first and tell me face to face. That's it. I still have something to do here, so I'll hang up first!"
After saying this, Zhong Guotao hung up the phone decisively.
"Hey, Dad!"
beep!
beep!
Just when Zhong Xiaoyang wanted to ask something more, a busy signal came to his ears.
'What happened?'
'Why is the old man so anxious to call me back?'
'no.'
'I have to ask.'
Thinking of this, Zhong Xiaoyang immediately called back.
However, although the call was connected, no one answered it, which made him even more confused.
After standing there and thinking for a moment, Zhong Xiaoyang took out his mobile phone and booked the nearest flight.
After booking the ticket, Zhong Xiaoyang turned around and left the parking lot. He didn't even care about the Harley parked there. He took a taxi and rushed to the airport.
The old man looked very strange today, something must have really happened.
In the early morning, Zhong Xiaoyang rushed home in a hurry. As soon as he entered the door, he saw the old man sitting on the sofa.
When Zhong Guotao heard the noise, he raised his eyelids and whispered: "You're back?"
"Yeah." Zhong Xiaoyang nodded and asked, "Dad, what happened at home? You didn't explain it clearly on the phone just now, and you didn't answer the call later."
Zhong Guotao raised his hand to stop him from speaking.
"Don't ask so many questions. I've booked tickets for you and your mother to go to the Lighthouse Country tomorrow morning. You've been traveling all day. I guess you're tired too. Go up and have a rest. Keep yourself refreshed. You'll get up early tomorrow."
"What? To the Lighthouse Country?"
Zhong Xiaoyang exclaimed when he heard this and looked at his father in surprise.
Zhong Guotao nodded lightly: "Well, Lighthouse Country, we will leave tomorrow morning."
"No, Dad, why?"
Zhong Xiaoyang was anxious. He didn't know why the old man suddenly made this decision.
"There is no reason, you just need to listen to me."
"dad……"
At this moment, Mother Bell's voice suddenly came from upstairs.
"Xiaoyang, don't quarrel with your dad. Going abroad is a decision that your dad and I made together. Don't worry about anything and be obedient. Mom and dad will never harm you."
Zhong Xiaoyang looked up at his mother: "Mom, but..."
Who would have thought that his mother, who was always easy to talk to, would directly interrupt his words and tell the truth.
"No buts!"
Seeing that the old man and the old lady acted like there was no room for discussion, Zhong Xiaoyang felt extremely reluctant to give up, so he had no choice but to agree obediently.
It's a pity that with this departure, Zhong Xiaoqin will definitely have no chance.
Despite successive setbacks, Zhong Xiaoyang did not give up. He carefully analyzed his past actions and tried to learn lessons from them.
Combined with the information obtained from the detective company, he formulated new opportunities in the past few days.
Unexpectedly, the plan was aborted before it even started.
"Then, Dad, can I still come back?"
Zhong Xiaoyang is not stupid, and his parents looked like they were facing a formidable enemy, which obviously made him guess something.
Something big must have happened to their family, otherwise the old man wouldn't have let him come back overnight and leave the country the next day.
Zhong Guotao sighed slightly in his heart. After all, his son was not so stupid that he was hopelessly stupid. His eyes when he looked at Zhong Xiaoyang softened a little, but he didn't know what he was feeling now. Despite this, Zhong Guotao still pretended to be calm and said.
"Don't worry, it won't be long. I'll let you know when the time comes."
The next day, Zhong Guotao personally drove the mother and son to the airport. After that, it was not known whether their family would be reunited.
On the way, the atmosphere in the carriage was a bit strange. Father Zhong and Mother Zhong deliberately put on a forced smile in order to prevent their son from seeing anything.
The two had been married for many years and had a perfect understanding. As expected, Zhong Xiaoyang was deceived by their joint efforts.
Because he got up too early in the morning, Zhong Xiaoyang fell asleep not long after the car started.
After their son fell asleep, the faces of Zhong Guotao and his wife immediately changed, and their smiles disappeared.
"Guotao, how about you..."
Before Zhong's mother finished speaking, Zhong Guotao said directly: "Okay, don't say any more. You and your son will stay well abroad and wait for my notification at any time. I have arranged everything outside."
"well."
Mother Zhong let out a long sigh, forgetting to glance at the man in the cab, and finally swallowed her words.
The check-in process was smooth and it didn't take long for all the procedures to be completed.
At the security check gate, Zhong Guotao looked at the small boarding pass and breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, things didn't come to the worst.
"You guys go in quickly."
When Zhong Mu heard this, her eyes immediately turned red.
"Cough! Cough!"
Seeing that the situation was not good, Zhong Guotao quickly coughed twice to remind his wife that it was not the right time to cry. When Zhong's mother received the signal, she immediately calmed down and snorted softly.
"Well, I'm not at home during this period, so you should pay more attention to rest."
"Well, I will. Okay, I won't say any more. We are about to board the plane. Come in quickly. I have arranged the people to pick you up. Remember to give me a call when you get there."
Zhong Xiaoyang smiled when he saw this and puffed out his chest.
"Don't worry, Dad, I'm here. Although my spoken English is not very good, I haven't read books in vain for so many years. Simple daily communication is still no problem."
Zhong Guotao nodded, patted his shoulder and warned: "You brat, you have grown up now. After you go abroad, remember to take good care of your mother."
"Guaranteed to complete the mission!"
The family of three stood at the security checkpoint and chatted for a while. It was not until the boarding time was approaching that the mother and son walked into the boarding gate.
Looking at the retreating figures of mother and son, Zhong Guotao no longer concealed his emotions, his face was full of reluctance.
The journey here is long and the mountains are high and the water is long, and there may be no time to return.
