The father and son wouldnt give in to each other, Bai Yang felt that he couldnt talk to his father anymore, not even bothering to argue with him. He stood up and kicked the chair behind him far away, venting the anger in his heart.
"Im warning you again, dont have any dealings with the Tong family unless you want to destroy our entire household!" Bai Hua Kun threw down the pen in his hand and stood up. He wouldnt allow his own son to cause trouble. The change of officials was about to take place soon, if something happened at this critical moment, not only would he not be able to get promoted, but he might also lose his current position. This matter couldnt be taken lightly.
Just then, Bai Yangs phone rang. It was Hou Jings call. Bai Yangs eyes were still glaring at his father as he picked up the phone, "Hello?"
"Bei Yang, Tong Jun woke up, but she cant speak, and her right hand is not controlled by her brain. What to do? Wuuu... wuuu..." Hou Jing cried uncontrollably on the phone.
"When did you wake up?" Bai Yang was very excited when he heard that Tong Jing had woken up.
"She had just woken up, but she had aphasia -" She said with tears.
"Its really the worst-case scenario." Bai Yang muttered to himself, then said to Hou Jing: "Ill contact a doctor in Beijing right away, and when she comes to Beijing for treatment, shell be cured, definitely will be cured." It sounded like he was trying to reassure Hou Jing, but actually, Bai Yang was giving himself strength. Tong Jun couldnt speak temporarily, and his right hand couldnt move either. If the treatment didnt go well, he would lose his speech forever, and never be able to use his right hand again. This was no different from being disabled, so no matter what, he had to find a way to cure Tong Jun.
Bo Huayun had already understood everything through these few words. He knew that his son was now unable to let go of Tong Jias daughter, and it would be useless to force him. They needed to use another way to separate them. So after Bo Yang hung up the phone, he lowered his voice and said: "I can take a step back, but..." Bo Huayun paused, sat down, and continued: "But I have a precondition..."
Bo Yang stood in front of his desk, coldly asking: "How much are you willing to compromise, and what are your preconditions?" His son had grown up, and this time he was indeed "tough". In fact, Bo Yang had always been a obedient child, rarely arguing with his parents. However, he couldnt stand his fathers indifferent attitude, especially when it came to the issue of Tong Jun, where his father wouldnt budge at all. This made him feel very frustrated, realizing that his own power was so small that he couldnt even protect the girl he loved. Besides throwing a tantrum like a child, he didnt know how else to express the anger and helplessness in his heart.
"My concession is that I can rescue Tong Jianhuas son, and I can also arrange for a special doctor to go to Hangzhou to treat Tong Jianhuas daughter. My prerequisite is - you are not allowed to bring people to Beijing, and you are not allowed to see her for two years. Two years later, when this matter has subsided and no one is paying attention to it anymore, you can go see her. Listen carefully, this is already my greatest concession. If you dont agree, I wont just refuse any conditions from you, but I will also intensify the destruction of the Tong family. You dont believe me? Then lets wait and see! Bo Hua Yun being able to stand in this position means he is a very capable person. His ruthlessness has never been on the surface, but rather hidden deep within him. He dares to utter ruthless words, so he must be able to put them into action. Without ruthlessness, its hard to conquer the world."
Bai Yang knew that in front of his own father, he was still a shrimp, even if he learned from others to go on a hunger strike and try to force his dad, his dad would still destroy the entire Tong family. But asking him not to see Tong Jing for two years was something he couldnt do, he had just barely seen Tong Jing again, and now they were going to be separated, how could he bear it?
"Dad, Im begging you, if you want me to not see her for two years, I wont be able to do it, I really cant do it—" Bai Yangs whole body felt powerless, he hated his own cowardice, he hated his own incompetence. He made a vow in his heart that one day he would become strong, strong enough to protect the people he wanted to protect, and no longer be controlled by others, even if that person was his own father.
"Ive told you before, dont cause me trouble at this time. Ive already allowed you to see her two years from now, you should be content. If you really force my hand, Ill make sure you never see her again, believe it or not!" Ber Huaiwen had already begun signing the documents in his hand, without even looking up at Ber Yang once. His tone was calm, but it made people understand that there was no room for negotiation anymore. You have to agree whether you like it or not.
Bo Yangs fists were clenched tightly, his breathing was disordered, and his eyebrows were deeply furrowed. He made a final effort, "Tong Jing is not Tong Jianhuas biological daughter, Tong Jing is just an adopted orphan. If Tong Jing breaks off her relationship with the Tong family, am I...?"
Bo Yangs words were not yet finished, when Bo Huaiyun became so angry that he crumpled the documents in his hand and threw them at Bo Yangs face. "Are you crazy? I dont care whose kid she is, but you cant see her now! Bo Yang, Im telling you for the last time, either you agree or you dont, otherwise, Ill tell you that even two years later, you wont be able to see her!"
Bo Yang lowered his head, clasped his hands around his skull, and painfully grasped his hair, letting out a loud wail: "Ah——, ah——" After finishing, he squatted down on the ground with a thud. "If the Tong family hadnt encountered any mishaps, would you have allowed me to be with her?" His tears had already begun to flow, icy droplets carrying a sense of despair, and in his hypothetical heart, a beautiful future was actually so bitter.
"Youre still young, with a long road ahead of you, why are you so obstinate? Even if the Tong family didnt have any issues, I wouldnt let you be with her. Tong Jianhua and I arent on the same path, were destined to not be friends, so you and she are destined to not be together!" Bo Huayuns words were also heartfelt, he and Tong Jianhua werent from the same faction. From the perspective of Chinas political ecology, the three major factions of the Communist Party - the Tuanpai, the *** (Shanxi) faction, and the Jiang faction - each had their own sphere of influence. Tong Jianhua was part of the Jiang faction, while Bo Huayun was part of the *** faction. It was uncertain which faction would ultimately gain power, but whoever could stabilize their position would be able to navigate the official circles with ease. Tong Jianhua was a threat to himself, and now that someone had eliminated him for him, wasnt that exactly what he wanted? Only by doing so could he squeeze into the central decision-making circle.
Bo Yang raised his head, his choked voice couldnt hide his sorrowful mood. "Alright, I agree to you, but you must immediately rescue Tong Yao and send a specialist from Beijing to treat Tong Jing. Two years, when the two years are up, remember what you said!"
Although Bai Yang agreed, he had his own way. Currently, the most important thing was to save Tong Yao and Tong Jing. Since they couldnt meet Tong Jing openly, they would do it secretly. There must be a way to see Tong Jing.
