The morning light leaked into the room through the cracks in the curtains, and Mu Xiaoke woke up from a night of sweet dreams. The dark room was dotted with several rays of sunlight, like a dream, making Mu Xiaoke unable to tell whether the dream was real or not.
Chu Han slightly tightened his arms around Mu Xiaokeâs waist, buried his head on the back of Mu Xiaokeâs neck, kissed him a few times, and asked softly in a hoarse and low voice: âAre you awake?â
Mu Xiaoke held Chu Hanâs hand, and Chu Han held his backhand and clasped his fingers tightly. âDid you sleep well, baby?â
Mu Xiaoke looked at him sideways and told Chu Han clearly with a smile on his face that he slept well and slept beautifully.
Chu Han was stunned, Mu Xiaokeâs face was haggard and tired before. Although it was still thin and pitiful, that face seemed to have a radiance, it was extremely beautiful. The light in those big eyes attracted Chu Han, making him unable to pay any attention to his surroundings.
In the past, Mu Xiaoke hadnât grown up yet, so it seemed that he was indeed inferior to Mu Kaiâs aggressive beauty, but now that the child has grown up, his glance and smile are so lovely.
Mu Xiaoke noticed that Chu Han was in a daze, so he tilted his head to look at him and asked him what was wrong.
Chu Han was âseverely injuredâ by this small movement of tilting his head, why is he so cute?! âWhy is my baby so cute?â He said, kissing Mu Xiaoke heavily on the cheek.
Mu Xiaoke blushed. Why did Chu Han suddenly become frivolous? He seemed to be familiar with such nasty love words. Some strange switch must have been turned on!
Chu Han smiled and hugged him to get up to wash. The two of them put on their coats. Chu Han opened the floor-to-ceiling windows on the right side of the room. Only then did Mu Xiaoke discover that there was a terrace of more than 20 square meters. The sun shone down and drove away the cold winter morning breeze. Looking around, there are magical buildings and traffic on both sides of the river.
âThis terrace is the best viewpoint of this house, isnât it beautiful?â
Mu Xiaoke nodded vigorously, it is so beautiful, this kind of scenery can be seen by pushing the door at home, the beauty of this house is so amazing as much.
âXiao Ke, I hope to live here with you in the future.â
Is this⦠is this a promise to stay together for a lifetime? Mu Xiaoke looked at Chu Han, and Chu Hanâs gaze was firm and sincere, which made Mu Xiaokeâs blood surge, âAs long as I am alive, I will be with you.â Mu Xiaoke responded in sign language.
âYou will live a long life, and so will I.â Chu Han hugged him tightly, âDonât talk about life and death lightly, with me here, I will not let your pessimistic thoughts appear in reality.â
Mu Xiaoke tightly pursed his lips, holding back the tears caused by being moved, âOkay!â
Chu Han caressed Mu Xiaokeâs cheek, and his eyes were full of longing, âSo, have you decided what you want to say to me? â
Since we have decided to be together, we must try our best to keep this happiness, and blindly concealing and avoiding it will definitely not solve the problem. Mu Xiaoke knew that sooner or later he would have to tell Chu Han about the past, but he didnât know how to speak or where to start.
âFor example, why are you so afraid of Rong Yanzhe? Is it because of the power of the Rong family?â
Chu Han could always see Mu Xiaokeâs thoughts and began to ask questions to guide Mu Xiaoke.
Mu Xiaoke nodded lightly, the Rong family has strong financial resources, at least in the circle that Mu Xiaoke can get in touch with, it is one of the best big financial groups, so Mu Xiaoke is afraid and feels powerless to fight back.
âThen if I say, my fatherâs surname is Shao?â
Surnamed Shao? Surnamed Shao! Mu Xiaokeâs eyes widened, what did Chu Han say? Is that what he meant?
Chu Han smiled slowly, âItâs the Shao you think of. The last president of the Shao Group is my grandfather.
Mu Xiaoke was confused for a while. Chu Hanâs fatherâs surname was Shao. Was his grandfather the president of the Shaw Group who had just passed away? âThen why isnât your surname Shao, and why is the Rong family controlling the Shao family?â
Chu Han hugged Mu Xiaoke and took him back to the house, lest he gets too excited or blows the cool breeze for too long.
âMy parents were plotted by the Rong family couple, and my father died in the scheme of the Rong family couple.â
What?!
Mu Xiaoke was so angry that he couldnât believe what he heard, the Rong family couple⦠were murderers! âDidnât they be arrested?â
Chu Han shook his head, âThe tragedy at that time was regarded as an accident. My father died abroad. It is difficult to find out why this kind of thing happened abroad. The Rong family tried their best to cover it up. Even my grandpa was almost deceived by them.â
Mu Xiaoke couldnât help clenching his fists when he heard this, the Rong family is always so despicable, they are simply demons, they can wantonly trample on other peopleâs dignity and even their lives for money and their own desires. Well, with a son like Rong Yanzhe, of course, it is because of worse parents as an example that this son can learn to be so arrogant!
Chu Han recalled the past. His mother refused to let go after receiving the news of his fatherâs death. She didnât believe it was an accident because the timing of his fatherâs accident was too sensitive. His father went abroad with some domestic politicians to investigate overseas in order to invest in foreign infrastructure projects. If those projects were won, the reputation and market value of the Shao Group would soar to a level unmatched by similar companies.
And if this project is completed by his father, then Shao Group will basically be in his fatherâs hands.
At such a critical time, his father died in a foreign country, and the smell of conspiracy was too obvious.
His motherâs insistence did cause the company to question Rongzhao and his wife a lot, but what everyone didnât expect was that Chu Hanâs grandfather did not agree with Chu Hanâs mother spreading the word that the Rongzhaos and his wife were suspects with great fanfare. In a rage, Chu Hanâs mother took Chu Han out of the country and settled abroad, even changing Chu Hanâs surname.
âMy mother was very disappointed with my grandfather and many senior executives in the Shao Group, so she left in a fit of anger. But, unfortunately, her health was not good, and she left me after half a year abroad. Grandpa took me back, and my name has not been changed. My grandfather often said sorry to me and my parents.â
âHave you found any evidence, have you found any evidence to confirm that Rong Zhao and the others are murderers?â
Chu Han shook his head, âAfter that time, those certified physical pieces of evidence have long been impossible to investigate. However, Rong Zhao himself admitted that he designed the car accident that killed my father.â
There are such rampant people?! What kind of shameless devil is Rong Zhao?
âThere was a business reception, my grandfather appointed Rong Zhao to represent the Shao Group, and I happened to be attending a class reunion at the same hotel. I was curious about how Rong Zhao would behave outside, so I followed Rong Zhao all the time.â
Coincidentally, Rong Zhao and his accomplices had a rare encounter. They hid in a secret corner and talked about what happened not long ago.
âThat old man of yours is so fair. Even though his daughter-in-law was making trouble he still asked you to come to such an important occasion, hahaha.â
âWhatâs that bitch knows? She just knows how to yell around. How could the old man believe her unfounded crazy words? She died so quickly as retribution.â
âBut the old man brought back his precious grandson, look at that kid, if he grows up, he may not be worse than his short-lived father.â
âHmph, what can he do as a young brat? Whatâs the use of studying well? If he messes with me, Iâll send him to reunite with his parents in a few days.â
âTake it easy. his parents just died, and even his son also followed the death, you can not really get away with it. Come on, itâs enough to kill him. I donât want you to make some mistakes and drag me into the water.â
âLook at you like that â¦â¦â
Chu Han, who was only 13 or 14 years old at the time, almost collapsed after hearing those words, but he covered his mouth with amazing perseverance to prevent himself from being exposed, and even recorded the audio.
âI gave the recording to my grandfather, but the lawyer told us that this recording cannot be used as direct evidence to prove that they killed someone, and the case cannot be handled across borders in China. Unless we find real criminal evidence, it is possible to prosecute from the country.â
âSince then, grandpa taught me a wordâ¦â
Mu Xiaoke looked into Chu Hanâs eyes, and his heart ached. He hugged Chu Han tightly, he knew that Chu Han had learned the word his grandfather taught himâforbearance. He has endured it for so many years, how painful it must be to bear the bloody hatred alone and not be able to retaliate?
Chu Hanâs maturity and stability are the results of being tortured by suffering. Just thinking about it, Mu Xiaoke feels extremely sad. In the future, he must treat Chu Han doubly well, and must be by Chu Hanâs side, and bear everything with him, not let him continue to be alone.
Chu Han buried his head on Mu Xiaokeâs shoulder, that thin shoulder looked so reliable and strong at this moment. Chu Han was extremely attached, turned his head, and kissed Mu Xiaokeâs neck lightly. He loved Mu Xiaokeâs strength and stubbornness very much, and he loved the awe-inspiring appearance of him carrying everything with his small shoulders.
âIâve endured it for more than ten years. After my grandfather passed away, Iâve still endured it until now. Xiao Ke, Iâm not afraid of the Rongzhao family. Iâve been dormant all this time just to strike a blow. Do you understand?â
Mu Xiaoke nodded. He understood. He believed that Chu Han must have been doing something over the years, and he also believed that Chu Han would be able to make the Rong family pay the price. âWhat are you going to do in the future, tell me, letâs do it together. Didnât you say that I belong to you, then share your pain with me, and I will bear the pain with you.â
Chu Han was moved by such moving love words and such decisive vows, âWhy are you so stupid? You have to suffer with me before you get the happiness I give you. How can Iâ¦â
Mu Xiaoke gently covered Chu Hanâs lips, looked at Chu Han with gentle eyes, then stood up and kissed Chu Han.
Itâs me, how can I meet and fall in love with you?
âI love you.â
Mu Xiaoke sign to Chu Han.
