Continued Love - Chap 74

Chap 74
Plan to Leave

Lu Tao didn’t return all night after he went out. This was a very common thing in the past, but Cheng Jin is extremely unfamiliar now.

When he got up in the morning, the quilt was not warm enough, and the large bed looked empty because he slept alone. The smell on the quilt was still very strong, but only the smell was left.

Without a warm embrace, no intimate whispers, Cheng Jin just felt that everything was unfamiliar.

After sitting blankly for a while, Cheng Jin slowly got up from the bed to wash. While eating breakfast, he turned on the light screen and checked the morning news, and he saw the news of the assassination of General Secretary Indira.

Indira is the Minister of General Affairs of the East. He is now seventy-five years old, but he looks almost like a middle-aged person in his forties and fifty years. The good relationship, coupled with the kindness and courtesy to others, so many people follow him, and there are even prophecies that after the current president takes office, the person who will be in office must also be Indira, after all, it is more stern than unsmiling. The Western Minister of General Affairs, his popularity is much higher. His political road can be regarded as smooth sailing. After all, his origin is also the indigenous people of the empire planet. His father, the deceased old Indira, was also the Minister of General Affairs in the past, and his position is just like his successor.

And now that such a person has been assassinated, although he is out of the dangerous period, it is enough to cause an uproar in the world.

Almost every TV channel reported this incident. Cheng Jin changed several channels and did not hear the keyword “chimera”. As for the speculation of the murderer, most people think it is controlled by the werewolf or the Zerg. The personnel came out, or the wave of people who are now going to oppose the imperial planet policy. Some TV stations also interviewed some passers-by who looked sad and worried, especially women, and prayed for Lord Indira on the spot.

If in the past, Cheng Jin must have the same views as passers-by. Although he has not seen Indira, he has a good impression of him. After all, the other party looks very gentle..

But now, he doubted it.

Although he was threatened by the “chimera”, Cheng Jin still feels that the other party has to make such a move in order to escape, and the conversation in the car and the accidental touch have not allowed him. Feel bad at the other party.

After all, the other party really looks like a child.

What conspiracy is involved in this?

Of course, Cheng Jin’s IQ couldn’t figure out the reason. He put down half of his breakfast and was about to change clothes to go out when he received a communication from his father’s hospital. Cheng Jin hurriedly pressed the call button. After listening to what the other party had said, his face changed. After a moment of daze, he reacted, then quickly grabbed a jacket and ran outside.

The hospital said his father tried to commit suicide.

Cheng Jin got into the car, trembling all over, and he hadn’t completely collapsed because his father had been rescued. Although this answer made him feel more at ease, Cheng Jin really couldn’t understand why his father would commit suicide?

Because of frustration of the bankruptcy? Because you don’t want to hurt us? But bankruptcy has been more than two years ago, and their most difficult problem have been overcome. Father’s heart can be controlled by taking medicines on time every day. There is no need for a third operation. Why would he commit suicide??

Cheng Jin was anxious, and only when he was halfway through the drive did he remember to contact his elder brother. He quickly dialed a video, and after a while, his brother’s facial features appeared on the light screen. When Cheng Jin saw him, he almost immediately cried, “Brother, brother, do you know what happened to Dad?”

“I know.” Cheng Xu’s tone was a little tired, “I’m in the hospital right now, don’t worry, just come over slowly, I will check with the doctor first.”

Hearing his brother’s answer, Cheng Jin seemed to take a reassuring pill and nodded vigorously, “Okay, okay…”

Turning off the light screen, Cheng Xu once again thanked his father’s attending doctor, saying: “Thank you for discovering what was wrong with him in time and saving my father’s life. I am very grateful. But I don’t understand why he’ll do this in the first place. We had agreed before that If my father has any problems, he’ll notify me, and then I will help him, because I don’t want him to worry too much.”

“That’s right.” The attending doctor explained: “This is what Admiral Lu Tao meant. In fact, the reason why we were able to immediately discover Mr. Cheng’s abnormality this time was also due to Admiral Lu Tao’s reminder that he asked us to monitor Mr. Cheng”

Cheng Xu was a little surprised, “Is there a detector of the type made by Bailey?”

“Yes, because the price is too expensive, most people will not use it. He asked the secretary to send one over last time, and we asked Mr. Cheng to agree to embed it in the communicator under another name. This detector can be connected. On my light screen, I can see Mr. Cheng’s physical condition, heartbeat frequency, and even his emotions. When the data is too low, an alarm will sound.”

“It turned out to be like this…” Cheng Xu didn’t know what it was like. After a moment of silence, he said, “Is my father’s mood stable now?”

The attending doctor said: “It has stabilized. Although the wound on the wrist is deep, it is not life-threatening and has no adverse effect on the heart because it was discovered in time. It’s just that I think all of this is temporary.” He looked at Cheng Xu earnestly, “After Admiral Lu Tao reminded me, I also paid attention to his emotional changes. He seemed to be stimulated by something, so his desire to survive was not strong. It was almost two extremes when he first entered the hospital. At that time-after the accident in the Cheng family, Mr. Cheng did not actually sink down, and he tried very hard to cheer himself up.”

“…Thank you.” Cheng Xu pursed his lips and stood up, “I’ll go see him.”

After treatment and suture, Cheng Zheng was sent back to the original ward. When Cheng Xu entered, there was a female nurse accompanying him. Seeing Cheng Xu coming in, the female nurse smiled at him slightly, and then went out first, closing the door.

Cheng Zheng was lying on the hospital bed. He didn’t turn her head when she heard the female nurse call “Mr. Cheng Xu”. His face showed a grayish color, and his wrist was wrapped in white gauze, which could be vaguely seen.

Cheng Xu took a breath and walked over slowly. After standing still, he said, “Dad, why did you do this?”

Cheng Zheng lifted his eyelids lightly, his voice was dry and hoarse, “Why do you want Yan Qi to help you?”

Cheng Xu’s complexion became stiff, and he said, “That’s was only temporary, how did you know?” He visited his father two times before, and Cheng Zheng never mentioned it to him. Cheng Xu thought he had hid it well.

“How long have I been lied by you, don’t you know what is temporary? Is temporary a year? Or ten years? Or a lifetime?” Cheng Zheng gradually became stiff, even sitting up, glaring at him, “And you tell me you don’t have feelings for that kid at all? The reason you have been refusing to get married is to be with him secretly, am I right?”

Cheng Xu didn’t know where to argue, so he could only say: “I don’t have any feelings for him, nor have I thought about him like thag…”

“Don’t lie to me! You like him! You are a homosexual!” Cheng Zheng criticized loudly, his voice trembling because of being too angry, “Why do you want to be with him? He is so much younger than you , what kind of person do you even want? If you don’t like women, you can find a “new female”, find someone who can continue the bloodline of our Cheng family! You like Yan Qi, what can you do with him? Can you have children? Why don’t you listen to my admonitions? My heart hurts when I think of that kid swearing in front of me that he will do it for you! I would laugh at him thinking he’s wrong, but I didn’t expect…” His face changed, and he couldn’t take it anymore.

Cheng Xu hurriedly walked over and smoothed his back, “Dad, don’t get angry, take care of your health.”

“I thought about leaving here!” Cheng Zheng suddenly pushed him hard. He glared at his son, and when he noticed a mark on his neck, He got so angry that blood surged, “You break up with him! we’ll leave and go somewhere else, you must give me a daughter-in-law, and give birth to my grandson and pass our bloodline!”

Seeing that his father was about to faint because of his anger, Cheng Xu quickly said: “Okay! I’ll break it off with him! Let’s leave and leave the empire planet!”

Hearing what his son said, Cheng Zheng calmed down a bit, but he still had some doubts about him, “Do you mean what you just said?”

“It’s true.” Cheng Xu nodded vigorously, “You lie down first, and breathe, I’ll pour you a glass of water.”

Although Cheng Zheng didn’t quite believe what he said, he still took two sips of the water he sent. After drinking the water, he suddenly sighed heavily, and his tone became sour, “Xu, I dragged you down. I know you didn’t mean that to him. At this point, you’re just being forced, if not I’m sick, so you don’t have to be embarrassed to this point.”

“It’s my reason.” Cheng Xu was full of guilt, and felt very uncomfortable thinking about the plan that Yan Qi had made to trap himself. “If I hadn’t been too aggressive, the Cheng family wouldn’t be like that.”

“That’s all God’s will.” Cheng Zheng sighed again, “So now I only hope that as long as the blood is in our family, we can start again one day. And all my hopes rest on you. Xu, you can’t go wrong! The kid Yanqi is just to avenge me for asking him to humiliate him that day. He is young and has a mad temper. How can such a person be sincere?”

“I know.” Cheng Xu lowered his voice, “I didn’t sit still, I also planned to leave, but Xiao Jin… I’m not sure if he really wants to go with us, he love Lu Tao. If you don’t change your mind, if you want him to leave the other party, he may not be able to do it.”

When Cheng Zheng thought of his youngest son, his heart felt sorrow again. He also knew in his heart that once they left the empire planet, it would be extremely difficult for them to come back. If Cheng Jin was left alone and his husband didn’t love him, his future life would be difficult. Both father and son clenched their teeth and persisted, and this accounted for more than half of the reason.

When Cheng Zheng was not sure what to say, the door of the ward was suddenly pushed open. Cheng Jin stood at the door and said, “I will go with you.” He bit his lip, his voice trembled, but firm, “In nine days, we’ll leave here together.”
