Rebirth: Different Way

Chapter 15: Suspect

    The conversation between Shen Ji and Shen Dehan ended in discord.

    Shen Ji could not accept the existence of Chu Qianqian, but Shen Dehan insisted on keeping Chu Qianqian by his side, and Shen Ji finally left the hospital with a cold face.

    During the whole process, Shen Xi quietly leaned in the corridor and listened to the quarrel in the house, with an expression on her face that other people couldn't understand.

    What just happened has happened countless times in the Shen family in the past, but the protagonist has always been Shen Xi, and Shen Ji will always be one of the spectators who have nothing to do with it. This time the identities of the two were reversed. Shen Xi coldly looked at Shen Ji's anger and the disappointment in Shen Ji's eyes, and an indescribable pleasure emerged in her heart.

    What made Shen Xi even more excited was her father's expression. In his memory, when his father was arguing with him, he could never find a second expression on his face other than disgust, but what did Shen Xi see just now? He saw a mix of anger and disappointment on his father's face, and a hint of incomprehensible pain. Almost fascinated, Shen Xi recalled her father's previous expression over and over again in her mind. The huge void that had been entrenched in her heart since her rebirth was finally satisfied!

    Shen Xi stepped into the elevator contentedly, took one last look at her father's ward before leaving the hospital, and smiled slightly.

    The curtain has been drawn, and I hope that the next actor will not let him down.

    Beijing in the night is always lively and extravagant, and countless bars and clubs are dotted around, attracting waves of men and women to shuttle through it.

    In an inconspicuous bar on the street, Shen Ji sat at the bar with no expression on his face. In the noisy background music, the phrase "one more drink" was repeated over and over again.

    Tonight is in charge of the bar, a young man who has been working in this bar for three years and is called Xiao Wu.

    In the past three years, the middle and fifth graders have seen more and more Shen Ji, a man like Shen Ji who wished to drown himself in alcohol. After Shen Ji shouted "one more glass", help him fill up the empty wine glass.

    Shen Ji didn't know how much he drank. After emptying the glass again, Shen Ji pushed the empty glass to Xiao Wu and motioned Xiao Wu to fill it up with his eyes.

    Xiaowu took the wine glass in his heart, and soon the crystal liquid was poured into it, giving off a splendid light under the illumination of the bar light. Shen Ji stared blankly at the glass being filled little by little, and suddenly raised his head to look at Xiao Wu, "What do you think true love of someone looks like?"

    Xiao Wu glanced at Shen Ji with pity after hearing this question, and was a fool who was trapped by love.

    Looking at Shen Ji's drinking posture, Xiao Wu guessed that Shen Ji should have been drunk, and he probably didn't even know what he was talking about. With Xiao Wu, he repeated his question again.

     

    Shen Ji didn't seem to hear Xiao Wu's answer, as if asking someone and saying to himself, "The person you love dies, will you keep looking for a substitute?"

    This question is much more attractive to Xiaowu than the previous question. The gossip heart in Xiaowu’s body ignited, and he took the initiative to join up, “I said buddy, this is wrong for you. It's not right to be a substitute, she is unique in your eyes, and you can still find a substitute to replace her? This means that it is not true love at all!"

    "Not true love?" Shen Ji repeated dully

    Xiao Wu looked disgusted, "Yeah, it's so simple, you still don't understand. Let's think about it, let's say you die, I mean, for example, your lover is fighting Missing your banner and being with someone who looks just like you, do you feel bad about it, do you feel bad about the relatives who are still alive around you? You should be unique, how can you be replaced casually? "

    Shen Ji listened to Xiao Wu's words, slowly rolled his eyes to look at Xiao Wu, the expression on his face showed a kind of desperate pain.

    Xiao Wu was frightened by Shen Ji's expression, "I said buddy, are you alright?"

    A "ba" word stopped in a loud crunch.

    Xiao Wu subconsciously looked in the direction of the sound, and saw several men sitting together in a booth not far from the bar, and there was a bottle of wine broken into pieces on the ground. One of the men, clutching the arm of a bartender, sneered and didn't know what to say.

    "I, fuck, Fang Luowei!"

    Xiao Wu suddenly exclaimed, and he quickly jumped out of the bar without caring about the bar, and rushed over, "What's going on?"

    In all directions, Fang Luowei grabbed his arm in embarrassment, "Guest please let go."

    The man holding Fang Luowei's arm sneered, "Let go? What do you say when you wet my brother's clothes?"

    Fang Luowei glanced at the brother in the man's mouth in disgust, turned his head and whispered, "I apologize, guest, I will pay for all your consumption tonight."

    The man insisted, "Do you think I am short of this money?"

    Fang Luowei endured the discomfort and looked at the man, "What do you say, the guest?"

    The man laughed arrogantly, "It's very simple, my brother has a crush on you, you accompany my brother to drink a glass of wine to make my brother feel good, let's forget about this."

    Fang Luowei froze, "Guest, this is a bar, I'm a waiter, not a drinker."

      You see, we are a regular business place, and we don't have the service of accompany wine, how about I accompany you to have a few drinks?"

    The man pushed Xiao Wu away, "How old are you?"

    Xiao Wu gave Fang Luowei a worried look, and was about to move forward when an unexpected face passed him and blocked Fang Luowei.

     "Let him go." Shen Ji said coldly

    The man glanced at Shen Ji sideways, "How old are you?"

    Shen Ji's accumulated anger all day burst out at this moment. Under the stimulation of alcohol, Shen Ji's head became so hot that he didn't have time to think about anything. He directly picked up a bottle of wine on the table and pointed it at the man's head smashed down.

    The red liquid mixed with alcohol flowed down from the man's head, and the whole bar seemed to be paused, and they all froze there.

      continue.

    Xiao Wu was stunned and looked at the few people who were fighting in front of him. How could he not understand how things developed to this point?

    In the chaos, I don't know who gave Xiao Wu a punch, Xiao Wu immediately rushed to the melee ring in anger.

    "Beat him, boy!"

    "Alarm, hurry up."

    "Guest, be careful!"

    The chaotic voice sounded, and the whole bar suddenly became a mess.

    When Li Mingxuan received a call from Shen Ji, he listened twice before he understood what happened. Shen Ji actually got into a fight with several guests at the bar, and is now taken to the police station.

    Hang up the phone, Li Mingxuan first asked someone for help and contacted the person in charge of the police station. He heard that Shen Ji's incident was nothing like taking a transcript, and he was relieved. After rushing to the police station, what Li Mingxuan saw was Shen Ji sitting alone by the flower bed. At this time, Shen Ji didn't look like the eldest son of the Shen family. His clothes were torn and tattered, and half of his face was dark blue. Li Mingxuan walked over with a funny look, "You've grown up in your skills. You're almost 30, and you have to toss to the police station."

    At this time, Shen Ji was in a strange state of excitement under the dual stimulation of alcohol and violence, and because of Xiao Wu's previous words, his mind was in chaos, and he could not refute Li Mingxuan when he heard the words.

    Li Mingxuan refused to let Shen Ji go, and continued to tease with a smile, "I heard that you also came to a hero to save Mei, what about Mei? Let me see."

    Shen Ji thought of the young man who was dragged into the melee by himself. He wanted to smile, but the wound on the corner of his mouth was sorely pulled, so he could only signal the direction of the police station, "Alright. Take notes inside."

    Li Mingxuan walked up to Shen Ji and kicked him lightly, "Let's go, I'll take you back."

    Shen Ji shook his head, "Wait for Fang Luowei."

    Li Mingxuan glanced at Shen Ji unexpectedly, and was about to speak when there were light footsteps behind him.

    "Mr. Shen, thank you for helping me today."

    Shen Ji stood up with the help of the flower bed, Li Mingxuan followed his line of sight, but was slightly taken aback when he saw the person in front of him.

    Fang Luowei was originally facing Shen Ji, when he saw the person next to Shen Ji turn around, he subconsciously showed a smile, and then he looked surprised, "Hey, it's you."

    Li Mingxuan nodded, he didn't expect Fang Luowei in Shen Ji's mouth to be the waiter at the bar that day. That day, he took the drunk Shen Xi back to the hotel, but he didn't take it to heart afterward, but he didn't expect the world to be so small, and he and Fang Luowei met again.

    Li Mingxuan thought that Fang Luowei should not know Shen Xi's name, but Fang Luowei quickly laughed after the accident, "The last guest was Shen Xi, right? I heard Your companion guessed, what happened to him after you sent him back?"

    Shen Xi was not Li Mingxuan but Shen Ji who was first shocked when she said the word. Shen Ji looked at Li Mingxuan in disbelief, "You and Shen Xi have a private relationship?"

    Li Mingxuan frowned, wanting to explain the ins and outs of this matter. Shen Ji sneered, "It turns out that the reporter's report is not chasing the wind. Is the Li family planning to make a two-handed bet on me and Shen Xi?"

    Li Mingxuan's face was ugly when he heard this, and he said solemnly, "Aji, do you know what you are talking about?"

    Shen Ji took a step back and continued to sneer, "Of course I know, it's no wonder that last time you and Shen Xi went back to China on a flight I haven't been able to find out the clues behind the scenes. You dare to say that everything is really just an accident. If it wasn't for the report that you came back together last time, my father was hospitalized with anger, how could he have met that woman in the hospital?" Shen Jiyue said in a louder voice, and then shouted hysterically.

    Li Mingxuan never thought that one day he would hear such cruel words from Shen Ji's mouth. He grew up with Shen Ji since he was a child. Apart from that blood relationship, Shen Ji was not only his friend, but also He was his brother for life.

      Ji, you're drunk and don't know what you're talking about, I'll take you back to rest."

    Shen Ji shook his head at Li Mingxuan, walked across the road without looking back, and quickly stopped a passing taxi.

    Li Mingxuan has been watching the taxi go away, a faint disappointment in his heart. He could understand Shen Ji's mood at this time, but he couldn't forgive Shen Ji for doubting his attitude for the first time.

    The dispute between Shen Ji and Li Mingxuan was seen by Fang Luowei, and he glanced at Li Mingxuan with an embarrassed expression. Although he didn't know what happened between Shen Xi and them, if he hadn't mentioned the name Shen Xi, Shen Ji wouldn't have a sudden attack. He could see that Shen Ji was talking drunk, but drunk words can hurt people.

    Li Mingxuan turned around, Fang Luowei stepped forward, "Sorry, I didn't know he had a conflict with Shen Xi."

    Li Mingxuan shook his head, "It has nothing to do with you, it's just that he is in a bad mood to catch up."

    Fang Luowei still felt very apologetic, but Li Mingxuan changed the subject, "Where are you going?"

    "I have something to do back at the bar."

    Li Mingxuan glanced at the empty street and thought, "I'll take you back, it's not easy to stop the car now."

    Fang Luowei wanted to refuse, but when he thought that he had just received a call from the boss, he was fired and asked him to go back to settle the wages as soon as possible, so he could only agree with a wry smile.

    The whole way was silent, almost as soon as he saw the shadow of the bar, Fang Luowei hurriedly opened the car door, thanked Li Mingxuan and trotted all the way to the back door of the bar.

    At this time, Shen Xi, who had just found Fang Luowei in the bar to no avail, was standing at the door of the bar in disappointment, thinking about Fang Luowei's possible whereabouts. He didn't expect that what he saw that day was not a hallucination but the real Fang Luowei, but unfortunately he was a step late. The people in the bar said that Fang Luowei had just been fired for fighting, and Shen Xi could only sigh when she heard this.

    What Li Mingxuan saw was Shen Xi standing alone at the entrance of the bar, under the warm yellow halo of the bar sign, Shen Xi looked into the distance with a confused expression and didn't know what she was thinking.

    Li Mingxuan's mind flashed the last time Shen Xi was drunk and honked the horn.

      Li Mingxuan made a move to get into the car, Shen Xi was stunned for a moment, then the corners of his mouth slowly raised, and he smiled at Li Mingxuan.

    Under the warm yellow halo, Shen Xi's smile was clean and clear, and the corners of Li Mingxuan's mouth could not help but slowly twitch.
