Chapter 244 Arriving at Zhang Long's Residence
He looked at the old farmer's sincere and simple face, and the guilt in his heart grew stronger.
He knew very well that what he had done was far from enough to make up for his debt to them.
Qi Tongwei's thoughts were constantly churning. He thought of Cuicui's loving eyes, and his heart was filled with helplessness and guilt.
He understood that Cuicui's love was a heavy burden for him, and he had inadvertently involved this simple girl in such a complicated emotional entanglement.
If it weren't for me, Cuicui might have lived a simple and happy life and would not have experienced so many twists and turns and pain.
Qi Tongwei fell into deep thought filled with guilt, and began to reflect on his life choices and behaviors.
He realized that his power and status did not bring him real happiness and satisfaction, but instead made him fall into endless troubles and guilt.
He longed to find a way to make up for his mistake so that the old farmer and Cuicui could live a happy life.
At this moment, Zhang Long's figure suddenly appeared in Qi Tongwei's mind.
He thought of Zhang Long's passionate and persistent love for Cuicui, and a complex emotion surged in his heart.
Qi Tongwei knew that Zhang Long loved Cuicui to death, and that deep love even moved him, an outsider.
Qi Tongwei began to recall his past with Zhang Long.
They had had some interactions before, although they were not close friends, but Qi Tongwei could feel that Zhang Long was a man who valued friendship and loyalty.
But when it comes to emotional issues, Zhang Long seems to have lost his mind.
The last time Zhang Long beat Cuicui, this behavior made Qi Tongwei very shocked and angry.
He couldn't understand how someone who loved Cuicui so deeply could do such a thing.
Qi Tongwei felt that he needed to go see Zhang Long.
On the one hand, he wanted to understand Zhang Long's current situation and see if he had realized his mistake.
On the other hand, he also hopes to resolve the conflicts between them. After all, the love triangle between the three of them is indeed a mess that needs someone to sort out.
Qi Tongwei decided to find out where Zhang Long was first.
He began to ask around and inquire about Zhang Long from some familiar people.
However, he did not get any useful clues at first.
People seem to know nothing about Zhang Long's whereabouts, or are unwilling to disclose it.
Qi Tongwei did not give up and continued to search hard.
He went to the place where Zhang Long used to work and asked his colleagues.
Some colleagues expressed their incomprehension of Zhang Long's behavior, but they also didn't know where he had gone.
Qi Tongwei felt a little disappointed, but he was not discouraged.
Then, Qi Tongwei went to some places Zhang Long might go, such as the bars and cafes he often visited.
But there was still no trace of Zhang Long.
Qi Tongwei began to get a little anxious. He was worried that something might happen to Zhang Long.
During the search, Qi Tongwei kept thinking about the relationship between the three of them.
He knew that his feelings for Cuicui were complicated, with guilt and a hint of other concerns.
Zhang Long's love for Cuicui is pure and passionate.
He couldn't help but ask himself what role he should play in this love triangle.
Qi Tongwei remembered the promise he had made to the old farmer that he would let them and their daughter live a happy life.
And now, Zhang Long's matter has put him in trouble again.
He didn't know how to handle this complicated relationship so that everyone could be happy.
After some twists and turns, Qi Tongwei finally learned the whereabouts of Zhang Long by chance.
It turned out that Zhang Long rented a house in a remote town and lived alone.
After Qi Tongwei learned the news, he immediately decided to go to the small town to find Zhang Long.
When Qi Tongwei came to the town, he was moved by its tranquility and simplicity.
He found Zhang Long's residence according to the address, which was a simple hut.
Qi Tongwei finally came to Zhang Long's house carrying some fruits that day. As soon as he entered the door, he said, "Mr. Zhang, I came to see you. How are you feeling recently?"
Zhang Long sat on the sofa, his eyes dodging, and he just replied lightly: "It's OK."
Qi Tongwei didn't care about his attitude and continued, "Mr. Zhang, don't stay at home all day. Go out for a walk and you'll feel much better."
Zhang Long thought to himself, "Humph, why are you pretending to be a good person? Maybe you have something to hide." But he said, "I know."
Qi Tongwei looked at Zhang Long's absent-minded look and sighed, "Old Zhang, I really hope you can get better and stop worrying about Cuicui."
Zhang Long was furious when he heard this: "You said it so easily, how can I not be entangled? I think there is something wrong between you and Cuicui."
Qi Tongwei's eyes widened, unable to believe what he heard: "Lao Zhang, what nonsense are you talking about? What's the problem between Cuicui and me?"
Zhang Long sneered: "Don't think I don't know what you're doing behind my back."
Qi Tongwei looked confused: "Lao Zhang, did you misunderstand something? What can I do?"
The two of them started arguing with each other and the atmosphere became very tense.
Qi Tongwei felt that Zhang Long was simply unreasonable, while Zhang Long was convinced that Qi Tongwei was up to something.
Since then, the relationship between them has become increasingly strained.
Qi Tongwei would still call Zhang Long occasionally, but Zhang Long would always hang up the phone impatiently after a few words.
Qi Tongwei felt that Zhang Long was indeed becoming more and more strange recently. He refused to eat or drink tea, and locked himself in the room all day. When he occasionally came out, he stared at him with a mysterious look in his eyes.
Qi Tongwei felt very upset. He didn't understand why his former good brother had become like this.
One day, Qi Tongwei met Zhang Long’s neighbor on the road.
The neighbor said to him, "Oh, I don't know what's wrong with your friend Zhang Long recently. He's been acting weird and I often hear him talking to himself in the house at night."
After hearing this, Qi Tongwei became more worried.
He decided to have a good talk with Zhang Long again.
Qi Tongwei came to Zhang Long's house and knocked on the door for a long time before Zhang Long reluctantly opened the door.
Qi Tongwei walked into the room and saw the mess. He said, "Lao Zhang, you can't go on like this. No matter what misunderstanding there is, let's talk it out."
Zhang Long sat in the corner and said coldly, "What else is there to say? You know it in your heart."
Qi Tongwei said helplessly: "Lao Zhang, I really don't understand why you think of me like this. Everything I do is for your own good."
Qi Tongwei took a deep breath, trying to suppress his anger, and said, "Lao Zhang, we have known each other for many years. From the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors to Gongming, Xiahou Shangzhou, the stories of many historical figures have told us that impulsiveness cannot solve problems. Can we calm down and talk things out like adults?"
