Li Chengxiu and Li Shuo have lived a peaceful and peaceful life for nearly half a month.

Li Chengxiu felt that their lives were probably similar to those of ordinary couples.

Usually when they go out together in the morning, Li Shuo would go around and take him to the company first, and then go to work by himself. During the lunch break, they would have to chat for about ten minutes. In the evening, Li Chengxiu always strives to come back early so that Li Shuo can have dinner as soon as he enters the door. Li Shuo is much busier than him, but no matter how late or tired he comes back, as long as he sees Li Chengxiu working, he must help.

At night, they leaned together to watch movies and listened to music, and life was so leisurely.

Li Chengxiu couldn't tell whether he liked Li Shuo's feelings. He only knew that he was very happy to be with this person and was grateful.

A few days later, Li Shuo told him that he was going home.

Li Chengxiu was stunned for a moment, remembering that his parents were both in the United States.

Li Shuo left in a hurry, and he said with regret: "What a pity. This time, my father called him back temporarily. If I had known that he would go back soon, I would have applied for a visa for you. It's too late now."

Li Chengxiu smiled embarrassedly, not knowing how to answer.

Li Shuo continued: "I mentioned you to my parents, and they always wanted to see you."

Li Chengxiu looked at him in surprise: "Your parents..."

Li Shuo smiled and said, "They are all very enlightened people. Don't worry, my sexual orientation is no longer a secret."

Li Chengxiu felt a little envious.

Li Shuo has a family, and his family is so reasonable. How lucky.

Li Shuo said while tidying up his luggage: "But it's fine, next time I can pour out a longer holiday and get a visa for you. Let's go back together to have fun. This time I may be back in a few days."

Li Chengxiu nodded: "Be careful."

Li Shuo showed a gentle smile: "I have been used to having you here these days. I miss you very much. Do you miss me?"

Li Chengxiu smiled shyly and nodded honestly.

Li Shuo's eyes were all laughing, and he kissed and hugged him when he came over, saying that he would bring him something fun to him.

Both of them thought this trip was like an ordinary business trip, but they didn't expect that they had been together for a long time since then. Seeing each other next time, things have changed.

Before leaving, Li Shuo specially opened a Global Service for Li Chengxiu's mobile phone, and saved him several thousand phone bills, saying that in this way, he could send text messages to his mobile phone and call him, just like in China.

What Li Shuo didn't tell him was that the phone bill would be several times more expensive. Li Chengxiu believed it and only said it was really convenient. He always thought that making a cross-border phone call would require many numbers in front and turn several turns before reaching.

The morning when Li Shuo left, Li Chengxiu specially cooked him the crab porridge he liked to eat.

When Li Shuo went out, he said he wanted to go directly to the airport. Today he couldn't take him to work, so he asked him to be careful.

Li Chengxiu nodded and told him to be careful on the way.

Li Shuo held the back of his head and kissed him in a tight and tight manner. Li Chengxiu felt a little uncomfortable for some reason.

Li Shuo came back in just a few days, why did he feel like the two of them are farewell forever?

He barely suppressed the strange feeling in his heart and sent him out the door with a smile.

While Li Shuo was waiting for the plane, Li Chengxiu was already sitting in the office, so he kept sending him a text message to chat.

When Li Shuo got on the plane, Li Chengxiu felt relieved.

He had never taken a plane and always felt that such an object was a little lingering in the sky, let alone Li Shuo had to sit for so long.

Not only did he feel a little worried, he almost counted the time at the end of the day, hoping that Li Shuo could report his safety as soon as possible after he arrived.

By the evening, Li Shuo called, and there was a lot of noise. He said that he had just got off the plane and was entering the customs.

Li Chengxiu's heart strings that had been tense for a day finally relaxed.

Li Shuo's voice sounded very relaxed, but the fatigue of the journey was still a little unconcealed, so Li Chengxiu told him to rest when he got home.

The two died before chatting for too long.

When Li Chengxiu packed up and lay down on the bed, Li Shuo sent him another text message, which turned out to be a photo. In the photo, he pointed his finger at his stubble and smiled helplessly.

Li Chengxiu couldn't help but smile and replied to Li Shuo: "Why did you forget to shave yesterday?"

Li Shuo replied: "I just thought about rushing to go to bed early yesterday, so I forgot. I was not in the mood to shave on the plane. When my mother saw me like this, she must laugh at me."

The two of them said meaningless words to each other, but Li Chengxiu felt extremely relaxed and at ease.

The text message sounded, and he pressed it without hesitation. When he opened it, he saw a familiar sentence: "Cheng Xiu, I miss you very much."

Li Chengxiu was a little surprised. The two of them were talking about something else. Why did Li Shuo suddenly say something like this? He was about to reply, but he suddenly realized that this was a strange number.

Li Chengxiu became tense.

He reminded him to ignore all unfamiliar numbers. He just neglected because he had been sending text messages to Li Shuo.

He knew that the owner of this number was probably Shao Qun.

Now he was no longer in the mood to chat with Li Shuo. He hurriedly said that he would go to work tomorrow and go to bed. Li Shuo said that he would contact him after he had settled down.

Like some man-eating monster on the other end of the phone, Li Chengxiu hurriedly turned off the phone and stuffed the phone into the drawer.

Only when Li Shuo was not here did he realize how lonely and frightened a person was.

The first two days after Li Shuo left, it was still fine. When Li Shuo had nothing to do, he would send him text messages, call him, and tell him one or two jokes about his parents.

But on the third day, Li Shuo had no news all day.

Li Chengxiu was a little surprised and sent him a message, but he had been waiting for several hours but didn't reply.

Li Chengxiu calculated the jet lag and felt that it was inappropriate to call at this time, so she planned to call again tomorrow. Maybe Li Shuo was busy with something.

The next day he made two calls, but Li Shuo didn't answer.

When Li Chengxiu finally realized something was wrong, Li Shuo had no news for three days.

Li Chengxiu finally got anxious and called him several times in a row, and later even called his assistant.

His assistant knew their relationship. They knew Li Chengxiu internship in Li Shuo’s office before. The assistant covered up on the phone and refused to say anything. He only said that Li Chengxiu and so on. Li Shuo was fine and would contact him after he was finished.

Li Shuo has always been very sensible in his work. No matter how busy he is, he will not worry about for so many days without even having a text message, unless he really encounters something.

Li Chengxiu's uneasiness gradually widened and her mind was in a mess.

Two more days later, Li Shuo finally called. Li Chengxiu was so excited that his hands were trembling when he saw the caller ID.

"Hey..." A very tired voice came from the other side of the phone.

Li Chengxiu felt sad. He knew that something really happened to Li Shuo. He had never heard Li Shuo make such a frustrated and tired voice. He was always confident and secure, and even if he was tired, he would not feel depressed.

"Brother Li, what's wrong with you?"

Li Shuo sighed softly: "Cheng Xiu, I'm sorry, I've really... I've had some accident here, I can't go back for the time being."

Li Chengxiu felt a little sad: "Your parents..."

Li Shuo whispered: "They are very good, it's because there's something wrong with my business in China."

Li Chengxiu asked: "It's very serious?"

Li Shuo said huh: "This matter is very complicated. I have been framed. Now, as long as I step into China's territory, I will be arrested immediately. I am now abroad, and everything happens too hasty. For a moment, I can't try the depth of the water and the water is shallow. Now I can't take the risk to return to China. Can you understand?"

Li Chengxiu couldn't help but tremble.

Even a person like Li Shuo can have such a depressed moment, which shows how serious this matter is.

"Brother Li..." Li Chengxiu wanted to comfort him, but she didn't know what to say.

"I didn't want to tell you what was worried about you, but considering your safety, I really can't hide it."

Li Chengxiu was shocked: "What, what does it mean?"

"Nine out of ten things happened this time were Shao Qunkan."

Li Chengxiu's body shook, and she felt a basin of ice water buckle down, and the chill instantly crawled into her limbs and bones.

Li Shuo continued: "The things I am responsible for now have been over many years, and there is no third-party interest at all. What I mean is that no matter what the result is, the only one who loses or benefits may be the legal representative of a company and its creditors, that is, the state-owned bank. No one can find the legal person of that company at all, and the bank is even more unlikely to do such a useless thing. If there is no interest involved, then I can only think of private grudges." He paused and continued: "When talking about personal grudges, after considering factors such as time, techniques and government departments, I only think of Shao Qun at the moment."

Li Chengxiu was so anxious that she wanted to cry: "Brother Li, is it really him?"

Li Shuo pondered: "Ninety-one, this matter is too complicated to explain. The series of files of the bankruptcy case were half a person tall. I want to find evidence to defend myself now, and I am afraid it will take less than a year or two."

"Then you can't come back?"

"I'm afraid it won't work in the short term. I can't risk being arrested. If I stay in the United States, the worst case scenario is that I will never be able to enter the country, but when I go back... the worst case scenario is that I'm detained."

Li Chengxiu felt very uncomfortable.

If this matter was really done by Shao Qun, it would be that he had implicated Li Shuo. Even if it was not Shao Qun, it was a fact that Li Shuo fell into trouble. He could not come back in a year or two. Everything he had worked hard to build in Shenzhen would be wasted.

Li Shuo continued: "I am very worried about you now. If this is the commander of the group leader Shao, then I am afraid that he will take action against you in the next step. I am afraid you will not be able to live there again. I have contacted my assistant and asked him to find a house for you. You don't have to worry about this for the time being."

Li Chengxiu felt sad. He suddenly got tired of this kind of life hiding from all over the place. Time and again, when did he want to hide from Shao Qun? Shao Qun not only ruined his life, but also implicated Li Shuo. How could he afford such a great crime?

Li Chengxiu said sadly: "Brother Li, I'm sorry..."

Li Shuo was silent for a moment and said softly: "Cheng Xiu, I don't want to hear your apology. What is the truth about this matter? It's still impossible to determine now. Even if it was really done by Shao Qun, it's not your fault. I have been thinking about it for a long time in the past two days, a lot of it. Actually, my father came back this time because of health reasons. His client hoped that I could take over his job. I was not interested in it at first, and I was more willing to start my own career, but now there has been such a big change. I think maybe this is the instruction given to me by fate, and maybe I should stay in the United States for a while. I have a question now, and the answer to this question is what I want to hear."

Li Chengxiu said in a hoarse voice: "What?"

"Would you like to come to the United States?"

Li Chengxiu was stunned.
