Rebirth of Corrupt Officials

Jiang Xiaochuan was sitting in the office, looking at the sporadic lights outside the window. The environment of the hospital was very quiet. Perhaps this could be considered a quiet corner in the city, although it was not a good place.

Qiao Yusheng went to see Xue Yan, but Jiang Xiaochuan couldn’t sit still. Something different would definitely happen tonight. Why was Qiao Yusheng come to see him…

With this thought in mind, he walked out of the office and along the corridor.

He went to Qiao Yusheng’s office last time and knew which direction Xue Yan’s ward was.

When he left the Yue family’s villa, he didn’t tell Yue Qingci. He didn’t know how he was now.

Just as he turned the corner, he saw Qiao Yusheng standing at the door of the ward, raising one hand as if he was handing something out and waiting for someone to pick it up.

The light tubes in the corridor seemed to have some poor contact, and the lights flickered slightly. Jiang Xiaochuan glanced at them and passed under the lights silently.

Five steps, four steps…

Qiao Yusheng stood at the door and said, “Because he knows who is hiding behind the scenes.”

There seemed to be a person standing inside, talking to Qiao Yusheng.

Jiang Xiaochuan could already see the door frame and slowly saw Qiao Yusheng’s stiff arm stretched out.

The man inside said, “You can’t guess at all—”

Then Qiao Yusheng’s hand moved. His hand was steady and his expression extremely cold. There was the sound of metal objects falling to the ground, and then a low laugh.

At this moment, Jiang Xiaochuan stood at the door, behind Qiao Yusheng.

Yue Qingci suddenly smiled. He saw the person who suddenly appeared behind Qiao Yusheng at the door. Was this a show?

Xiaochuan…

The blood in his heart kept pouring out like a crushed pump. Qiao Yusheng’s shooting skills wasn’t very accurate, but such a close distance was enough to kill a person.

The man in his memory, Jiang Xiaochuan, always had such a calm and quiet expression, but there was an indelible brilliance in his eyes. When others laughed, he would just purse his lips. From a distance, one wouldn’t feel that he was difficult to approach; up close, one would feel that he was elusive.

Just like this moment, Yue Qingci knew that he would die, but the focus of his sight was always on Jiang Xiaochuan.

He looked at him and the other looked at him.

He couldn’t help but reach out and tell him what he was not yet ready to say, but when he opened his mouth, he found that every word was stuck in his throat like a blade, cutting all his words into pieces.

This was a theater of the absurd.

He watched it from beginning to end but didn’t expect that this would be his ending.

People said that the beholder knew the truth, but he, the official who was watching from the sidelines, also knew it very well. He was not obsessed, but still obsessed.

From nothing to something, from low to high, from obscurity to being known to everyone, from acquaintance to close relationship and then separation, the journey of more than ten years could be looked back on in an instant and with a snap of a finger.

‘Jiang Xiaochuan, did you really not know that I also liked you in this life?’

Breathing, suffocating, his life was about to stop.

Jiang Xiaochuan looked at Qiao Yusheng standing in front of him, with his back to Jiang Xiaochuan like a statue.

Jiang Xiaochuan couldn’t walk, so he just moved his fingers with difficulty, half-raising his arm, his fingers spread out but slightly curled up, his fingertips facing Yue Qingci’s outstretched hand.

A gun was fallen at Yue Qingci’s feet. It was an absolute military standard and was still loaded. The posture when it landed on the ground looked so lonely and dangerous. Blood fell, one, two, three.

If the barrier of this space was ignored, would their hands have held together?

Yue Qingci suddenly understood what was so great about right and wrong, black and white, good and evil?

Kill Rong Shaobai, kill Xue Yan, what would happen in the end? Did the person he wanted to protect really need his protection? But… he still felt a little… unwilling…

In the last life, Uncle Jiang listened softly to Qiu Yu’s words and asked him to persuade Jiang Xiaochuan to accept the money. However, he did not expect that the money would eventually become the first key piece of evidence for Jiang Xiaochuan’s downfall. Jiang Encheng was a slightly indecisive person in terms of human relations. He was too kind because people in this world were still the same as they were many years ago. In fact, people’s hearts were not as old as they used to be. Qiu Yu still had no motherly love for Jiang Xiaochuan. Real motherly love did not come with money. To measure it, she was basically united with Huafeng’s group to clear the obstacle of Jiang Xiaochuan, because Jiang Xiaochuan was a radical leftist, and he didn’t even have the time to say these words.

He suddenly knew who Jiang Xiaochuan was, at the most inappropriate time.

When they were in the municipal compound that day, Jiang Xiaochuan handed him the drink, as well as the drink he had taken himself. Some of the words Jiang Xiaochuan had said, some of the things he had done, and some of his behavior…

Even, there was those earth-shaking changes.

Also, at this moment, Jiang Xiaochuan’s slightly trembling lips, those two silent words.

It wasn’t Yue Qingci.

He said, ‘if I love you, I would stay far away from you.’

He wanted to reply, ‘for a person like you, I would be willing to give everything, including my life.’

But even if he had said it, he wouldn’t believe it either.
