Chapter 413 Contradictions
huh... huh... huh...

After sitting on the chair, Cheng Huaigu took several deep breaths in succession, which finally calmed his violently beating heart a little, and his face, which had turned red due to excitement, finally faded a lot.

Seeing that he gradually calmed down, the middle-aged man breathed a sigh of relief.

He was also worried. It would be troublesome if the person in charge of the Cheng family had a heart attack.

"Well, please tell me about my eldest son."

"Mr. Cheng, the only thing I can tell you now is that the child who was lost in your family is now living a good life. He is married, and his wife is pregnant and will have a child of her own soon.

In addition, he is now a government official and is engaged in a special profession. If you want to find him, it will not be a good thing for your family or him given the current environment.

I didn’t intend to tell you about this matter originally, and that’s what the above said, so as to avoid unnecessary trouble for everyone.”

"Does he... know?" Cheng Huaigu probably didn't even notice that his voice was trembling so badly.

"I know." The middle-aged man nodded. "Mr. Cheng, didn't I tell you that he is now engaged in a special profession? Of course, the higher-ups have to investigate his background before he can join the company, so..."

"He doesn't want to recognize us either?"

"Mr. Cheng, you should know that he is almost thirty years old. He was only three years old when he was lost."

The middle-aged man didn't say anything else, but his meaning was very clear, that is, the child has no feelings for you at all, so why would he want to recognize you and cause trouble for himself?

Cheng Huaigu sat there in a daze for a long time.

He never expected that his son who had been missing for more than 20 years would get the news so unexpectedly, but this news was not good news for him.

But he soon changed his mind. At least this was not bad news. His son was still alive and doing well.

"What's his name now?"

"Sorry, Mr. Cheng, I can't tell you this." The middle-aged man refused without even thinking about it.

"You just said he was engaged in a special profession. What kind of profession is it?"

Cheng Huaigu did not give up the idea of ​​asking about his own child, but was still rejected.

"I'm really sorry, I can't tell you that. You just need to know that your child is doing well. Mr. Cheng, the first thing you need to consider now is how to get rid of your second son. As for him...

I know you have ways to get your people into the country, but the meaning is that you'd better not do it, it will not have any other effect except adding trouble."

Cheng Huaigu stood up immediately. He was not short, nearly 1.8 meters tall, while the middle-aged man was only 1.7 meters tall. As soon as he stood up, he took two steps forward and lowered his eyes to look down at the middle-aged man standing in front of him.

"Our Cheng family has made great contributions over the years, but we have worked hard. Now we finally have news about my child who has been missing for more than 20 years, but you tell me not to look for him? It seems that the child who was lost is not yours. You are really talking without any concern."

"Mr. Cheng, I understand your feelings."

Even though Cheng Huaigu had already forced his way in front of him, the middle-aged man did not move at all. He just raised his eyelids and stared at the contemporary ruler of the Cheng family.

"But don't forget, you are not alone. You have the huge Cheng family and your family behind you, as well as so many people who eat with your Cheng family.

Mr. Cheng, the child you lost now has a special status. He is on the list at C. The only good thing is that those people don’t know what he looks like, otherwise...

You should know the consequences.”

The middle-aged man's words made Cheng Huaigu look incredulous.

My goodness, his eldest son was even on the list at C. Of course he knew that this list was not a good one.

If you say so...

He grinned slightly as if he had a toothache.

He finally understood why someone was sent specifically to remind him.

If they recognize each other and are discovered by C, it will be an absolute disaster.

The Cheng family is not just the Cheng family of him and his wife. He has an old man above him, brothers and sisters of the same generation, younger generations below him, and even grandchildren.

The Cheng family is a large family. If you count the people with the surname Cheng alone, regardless of whether they are near or far, there are about one or two hundred people. It’s just that his branch is the main family.

The son he lost back then is now serving the country and is on the list of Department C. If it is discovered that he is a member of their Cheng family, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Cheng Huaigu felt as if his heart was being tightly gripped by a huge hand, making it difficult for him to breathe. He could only open his mouth wide and try desperately to take in more oxygen like a fish out of water.

Seeing this, the middle-aged man hurriedly stood beside Cheng Huaigu, holding his arm with one hand and using the other hand on his back to help him breathe.

"Mr. Cheng, you must stay calm. You should think like this: the lost child has been found. Although we cannot recognize him, he is living a very good life and has made contributions. He is a hero.

He has his own home, his own wife, and will soon have his own children. Isn't this what you want to see?

What you should consider now is how to prevent Department C from finding out, and find ways to erase some traces and protect your Cheng family.

Mr. Cheng, everyone in your Cheng family is great, including the one who was lost that year. The reason why the higher-ups sent me to remind you is that they don't want any tragedy to happen. Our people will also find a way to help you erase some traces.

I hope you can consider the overall situation. Also, I hope you can stop telling this to other people, including your father and wife.

We know that you, your wife and your father must all be eager to see the child you lost more than 20 years ago, but now is really not the time.

If they knew about the existence of this child now, I believe you should be able to imagine what might happen. For the sake of your Cheng family and the child in China, I hope you..."

Snapped

Cheng Huaigu, who had gradually calmed down, grabbed the middle-aged man's arm.

"You don't have to tell me, I know what to do."

After all, having gone through many ups and downs, Cheng Huaigu certainly knew what he should do next.

Erasing some traces is nothing for the Cheng family, which runs both white and gray businesses. It is not like they have to fight head-on with Department C.

He knew very well that what the man said was right, but whenever he thought of his son who had been missing for more than 20 years and was right in front of him but unable to recognize him, his heart ached.

As for keeping it a secret from his father and his wife, that was a must. If they knew that the child had been found, he guaranteed that the two of them would charter a plane to fly to Hong Kong Island first, and then find a way to return to the north.

Thinking of this, he patted the middle-aged man's arm.

"I know what to do. Don't worry. Please also rest assured, your superiors. I know what to do."

Seeing that Cheng Huaigu had finally calmed down and his expression had returned to normal, the middle-aged man breathed a sigh of relief.

He was really worried that the person in power in the Cheng family would insist on recognizing his relatives regardless of the consequences, which would cause real trouble.

"Thank you, Mr. Cheng. No one will forget the contributions your Cheng family has made over the years."

Cheng Huaigu shook his head calmly. What the Cheng family had done over the years was not to gain fame, but to sincerely do something for the country.

The middle-aged man left, and Cheng Huaigu was the only one left in the tea room.

He sat there quietly by himself, with a gloomy look on his face.

Because of the sudden bombing, the eldest son and grandson were lost, and their family did put a lot of effort into searching for him day and night in Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei. The old man who adopted Li Yancheng at that time must have known about this matter, but for some reason he did not look for the Cheng family, but adopted him.

More than 20 years have passed in a flash.

Cheng Huaigu certainly had no idea what was going on here. He was a little conflicted now, as on one side was his family, and on the other side was his biological son whom he hadn't seen for more than 20 years.

If he analyzed it rationally, he certainly knew which was more important, but his heart ached whenever he thought about the fact that his son, who had been lost at the age of three, finally had news but he couldn't see him again.

call……

After sitting there thinking for a long time, he let out a long breath and stood up, but compared to when he came just now, his back seemed to be much more collapsed.

"Comer"

Following his voice, the assistant who had been guarding outside the tea room door pushed the door open and walked in.

"Mr. Cheng"

"Guan Ya, give the order immediately..."

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

Cheng Huaigu still made the most rational choice. There was no other way. As the current ruler of the Cheng family, he had too much to bear and could not act on his own.

Moreover, now that he knew the information about his missing son and knew that he was doing well, Cheng Huaigu could feel a little relieved.

Now that the decision has been made, he must make arrangements as soon as possible and find a way to erase all traces of his younger son in Hong Kong Island and block the source that may be traced to Point C.

"Yes"

After receiving the order, the assistant responded without a word, waited for a few seconds, and when he saw that the boss had no other instructions, he respectfully withdrew.

For a moment, Cheng Huaigu was the only one left in the tea room.

He stood there, pondering whether or not he should go back and tell his wife about this.

More than 20 years have passed, and although they have a son and a daughter, his wife has never gotten over the fact that she lost her eldest child. It has become a source of worry for her. Although she has been taking care of herself over the years, her health is getting worse and worse.

It was precisely because of his wife's poor health that he was so hesitant.

He wanted to let his wife know the good news, after all, heart disease needs to be treated with heart medicine; but he was also afraid that they would not be able to recognize each other now, which would make his wife too excited and aggravate her condition.

After hesitating for a moment, he decided to go back and tell his wife the good news.

It's not that he didn't want to hide it, but he knew that they had lived together for thirty years, and if he had something on his mind, he couldn't hide it.

That being the case...

Cheng Huaigu turned and walked towards the door.

He has always been a decisive person. Once he makes a decision, he will not hesitate.

He came out of the teahouse and got into the car. Ten minutes later he was back home.

"Hey, Huaigu, why did you come back so early today?"

Cheng Huaigu had just entered the house when he ran into his wife Fu Shuyi walking in the yard.

Years of mental illness have made Fu Shuyi, who is almost fifty years old, look a little thin and pale.

Seeing his wife, Cheng Huaigu took two quick steps and supported her arm.

"I came back to tell you something."

"What's the matter?" Fu Shuyi looked at her husband curiously.

"Come, go in first and talk inside." Cheng Huaigu didn't rush to talk about the matter. Instead, he used a little force in his hands and supported his wife as they walked into the house.

After entering the house, he waved his hand to signal the servants to go down first, and asked the bodyguards who came back to guard outside, and no one was allowed to approach.

His actions made Fu Shuyi even more curious.

"What's going on, Huaigu? Why are you taking it so seriously?"

After sitting on the sofa in the living room, Fu Shuyi first glanced at the bodyguards guarding the steps outside the door, then turned her head and fixed her gaze on her husband sitting next to her.

"Someone was sent over there to look for me just now."

"Then..." Fu Shuyi was slightly stunned: "Why did they come to you directly for no reason?"

As the wife of the head of the Cheng family, she knew all the family secrets. It was only because her health had deteriorated in the past two years that she gradually stopped interfering in family affairs.

"The person who came here told me that the C Division of Hong Kong Island might be targeting Jianwen."

After hearing what her husband said, Fu Shuyi's eyes froze and her face was full of disbelief.

"Why did C...C Department target Jianwen? What was he doing in Hong Kong Island?"

"He didn't do anything. To be more precise, Jianwen was the one who got caught in the crossfire this time."

Fu Shuyi's beautiful eyebrows were furrowed together.

"Innocent people are affected? Huaigu, please explain clearly. Why don't I understand?"

"An undercover agent escaped from the north to Hong Kong Island and accidentally met Jianwen. He didn't know Jianwen, but he thought he looked like someone, so he used the channels of Division C to check him out."

???

Fu Shuyi looked at her husband with a puzzled look in her mind. The more she listened, the more confused she became. How could this be related to the lurker?

Especially like...

Ok?
"See...see and hear...see and hear someone who looks particularly like him?"

She finally grasped the key point of this sentence, and a blush appeared on her originally pale face.

She half turned and reached out to grab her husband's hand, staring at him with her big eyes.

"Yes," Cheng Huaigu nodded heavily, held his wife's hand with his backhand, and rubbed his thumb gently on the back of her hand.

"Shuyi, that lurker ran over from Beijing. You should have guessed what I want to say. I hope you can calm down and not get too excited. It's not good for your health."

Fu Shuyi seemed not to hear what her husband said. She held those big hands tightly with both hands and asked excitedly.

"Huai Gu, did the lurker you mentioned meet Jiansheng in Jing City?"

"That's right"

Contrary to Cheng Huaigu's expectation, after getting a clear answer, Fu Shuyi calmed down instead, but a hint of moisture appeared in her eyes.
