Chapter 369: Thousands of Thoughts
During this process, Qi Tongwei's heart was filled with pain. He once thought that he could create a bright future for Chen Yang with his own efforts and wisdom. However, the reality was so cruel that he had to face the threats and blackmail of Zhao Ruilong. He felt that his power was so small that he could not protect his beloved.
Qi Tongwei recalled every moment he had spent with Chen Yang, but those beautiful memories had now become a pain in his heart. He didn't know how Chen Yang would react after knowing this, nor did he know how to explain it to Chen Yang. He felt that he was deeply remorseful and felt that he had let Chen Yang down.
At the same time, Zhao Ruilong was also thinking about his next move. He knew that Qi Tongwei would not easily compromise, but he would not give up his own interests. He decided to use his power to put pressure on Qi Tongwei so that he would have to give in.
Zhao Ruilong began to mobilize his connections in the officialdom and business circles to try to create trouble for Qi Tongwei. He knew that Qi Tongwei also had many enemies in the officialdom, and as long as he provoked them a little, he could put Qi Tongwei in trouble. He also used his influence in the media to spread some news that was unfavorable to Qi Tongwei, trying to discredit his image.
Qi Tongwei soon felt the pressure from Zhao Ruilong. His work began to be hindered in various ways, and his image was seriously damaged. He knew that it was Zhao Ruilong who was behind it, but he was powerless. He felt that he was caught in a huge whirlpool and couldn't extricate himself.
At this difficult time, Qi Tongwei had to re-examine his situation. He knew that he could no longer confront Zhao Ruilong head-on, otherwise it would only make things worse. He had to find a way to solve the problem, which would not only save Chen Yang's life-saving money, but also resolve the conflict between him and Zhao Ruilong.
Qi Tongwei felt unprecedented anxiety and confusion during this difficult time. He sat in a dim room, smoking one cigarette after another, his thoughts were in a tangle of smoke.
He knew that he could not confront Zhao Ruilong head-on again, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous. Chen Yang was still waiting for the life-saving money, while Zhao Ruilong was eyeing the 30 million US dollars. Qi Tongwei's heart was filled with pain and helplessness, and he began to recall the occurrence of this series of tragedies.
From the beginning, he fought for the money at all costs for Chen Yang. He thought that with Zhao Lichun's support, things would be solved smoothly, but he didn't expect Zhao Ruilong to intervene. They used to collude with each other in the vortex of power and did whatever it took for their own interests. Now, for the sake of 30 million US dollars, their conflict broke out completely.
Qi Tongwei recalled that he had given up his dignity and principles in order to get promoted, and joined forces with Zhao Ruilong and others. He thought that he could get everything he wanted in this way, but he did not expect that he would end up in a deeper predicament. He regretted his choice and regretted that he had embarked on this wrong path.
And Chen Yang, the woman he deeply loves, has always been a light in his heart. She is kind and upright, which is incompatible with the dark world he lives in. Qi Tongwei knows that he cannot let Chen Yang down, and he must find a way to keep the life-saving money.
Finally, the day of negotiation arrived.
Qi Tongwei stood there, staring at Chen Yang behind the Burmese military. When he saw Chen Yang's wounds and half-dead appearance, his heart suddenly clenched and tears instantly burst out. He had never felt so painful and helpless. The woman who was once as warm as the sun was now suffering such hardships.
Chen Yang looked at Qi Tongwei, his eyes also full of tears. Their eyes met, as if time had stopped at this moment. In this dark and dangerous environment, they became each other's only support.
Qi Tongwei's lips trembled, and he wanted to say something, but he found that his throat seemed to be blocked and he couldn't make any sound. He slowly took a step forward, but was stopped by the people around him. The Burmese military looked at him vigilantly and warned him not to act rashly.
Qi Tongwei's heart was full of resistance. He hated his own powerlessness and hated this world full of tragedy. He didn't understand why their fate was so bumpy and why they couldn't live a happy life like ordinary people.
Chen Yang opened her mouth weakly, as if she wanted to say something, but her voice was extremely weak. Qi Tongwei tried hard to hear her words, but he could only see her lips moving. His heart felt like it was being gnawed by millions of ants, and he was in great pain.
They all understand that this series of tragedies is not accidental. The world they live in is full of power struggles, conflicts of interest and the darkness of human nature. They once tried to resist and change their fate, but eventually fell into deeper trouble.
Qi Tongwei recalled the good times they had, when they were full of hope and dreams. They looked forward to the future together and worked hard for their ideals together. However, now everything has come to nothing.
Chen Yang's tears kept flowing. She knew that her life might be coming to an end. But she was not afraid of death. She was just worried about Qi Tongwei. She didn't want him to fall into despair for her, and didn't want him to continue struggling in this dark world.
Qi Tongwei looked at Chen Yang and swore in his heart that he would save Chen Yang no matter what the cost. He couldn't let her leave this world like this, and couldn't let their love end in tragedy.
However, the reality is extremely cruel. They are faced with many difficulties. Not only do they have to deal with the threats from the Myanmar military, but they also have to face Zhao Ruilong's greed and Gao Yuliang's helplessness. They don't know how to get out of this predicament, and they don't know what their future will be.
In this tragic moment, Qi Tongwei felt the coldness of the world. He once thought that he could control everything with power and wealth. But now he understands that in the face of real difficulties, these seem so insignificant.
He began to reflect on his life and every decision he made. He realized that he had given up too many precious things in pursuit of power and profit. He regretted his choice and regretted that he had embarked on this wrong path.
Chen Yang looked at Qi Tongwei's painful expression, and her heart was filled with heartache. She knew that Qi Tongwei had paid a lot for her, and she didn't want him to continue to suffer like this. She used all her strength and said with difficulty: "Tongwei, don't be sad for me. All this is arranged by fate. We can't change the past, but we can choose the future."
