Chapter 967: Who will pay for Si Xuezhong’s life?
As Cheng Yingjie spoke, Su Yang could only nod and push Cheng Yingjie towards the Olympic Sports Park. The two encountered a red light at the traffic light and waited for a while.
Cheng Yingjie spoke slowly: "In the past ten years, China's economy has developed rapidly. There are tall buildings, wide roads, and smooth streets everywhere."
"The lives of ordinary people are getting better and better..."
Su Yang listened quietly without saying a word. He waited until the green light came on. Then he pushed Cheng Yingjie slowly across the zebra crossing and entered the Olympic Sports Park.
"What do you think about the future development of Dongjiang Province?"
Cheng Yingjie looked ahead and felt a breeze blowing. Although it was November, the temperature in the capital was still much higher than that in Dongjiang Province.
Su Yang smiled bitterly: "Mr. Cheng, I don't know how to answer this. I am just a businessman and I only know about my own business."
"You asked me what I think about the future development of Dongjiang Province. I can only tell you that I will watch it while sitting, standing, and lying down..."
Cheng Yingjie laughed out loud.
"Okay, you are so cunning!"
"Then let me ask you again, what do you think of the future development of the Si Group?"
Su Yang was silent for a moment: "Si Group still has a future, but it won't always have a future."
"With the changing times and the rotation of industries, if you can seize the opportunity of twenty years, you are already lucky. If you want to be evergreen, that is just a foolish dream..."
Cheng Yingjie coughed, covered his mouth, and his whole body shook.
"Then how far do you think the Si Group can go?"
Su Yang stopped and looked into the distance: "At most fifteen years, at least ten years..."
Cheng Yingjie frowned and asked again.
“What about Jitu Express?”
Su Yang smiled bitterly: "Are you testing me?"
Cheng Yingjie smiled helplessly: "Su Yang, although this is the first time I see you today, I have always been paying attention to you."
"I know everything about your life in Dongjiang Province..."
"Jiang Mingfeng can ask about these things, but I can't?"
"I know that you are confused, doubtful, timid, and angry right now..."
"I asked you to come to Beijing because I hope you can show me a clear path."
"But before that, to show my sincerity, I can answer all the questions in your mind."
Cheng Yingjie was straightforward and had no intention of beating around the bush.
He was a frail man with not much time left, and should have retired to enjoy his old age. If he had not insisted on standing guard for this last shift, he would have been idle at home long ago.
To him, his work is more important than anything else.
Including love, family, affection, and even children...
Su Yang let go of his hand, stood behind Cheng Yingjie, and asked the question that he had always wanted to ask.
"Why did Han Ying want to kill Si Yao?"
Cheng Yingjie smiled bitterly: "For me..."
Su Yang walked up to Cheng Yingjie and looked at him in disbelief. He didn't understand, and didn't comprehend.
"for you?"
Cheng Yingjie nodded: "It's for me..."
"You can see that I'm sick. More than a decade ago, my kidneys were overwhelmed by long-term overwork and I developed end-stage renal disease. At that time, I thought I was going to die, but I didn't expect that I would be matched with a kidney source and undergo an organ transplant, which is how I survived until today."
Su Yang frowned, not understanding what Cheng Yingjie meant.
He was diagnosed with kidney disease more than a decade ago and had an organ transplant.
What does it have to do with Han Ying wanting Si Yao to die?
Cheng Yingjie sighed deeply: "Three years ago, I fell ill again. This time it was a terminal heart disease. The organization wanted me to step down and recuperate, but I couldn't bear to give up this job..."
"Han Ying found out about this. She knew that Yaoyao was the daughter of Huang Yun and I."
Su Yang's brows were furrowed. He looked straight into Cheng Yingjie's eyes, but there was disbelief in his eyes.
Just to let Cheng Yingjie live, Han Ying wants Si Yao to die?
"You are in a high position, can't you find a second heart?"
"Why must Si Yao die?"
Cheng Yingjie looked solemn, with some regret in his eyes: "Because, more than ten years ago, the person who donated a kidney to me for free was Yaoyao's mother, Huang Yun..."
"She died of illness. Before she died, Han Ying found her and hoped that she could be a kidney donor..."
"When I was on the operating table, I had no idea that this kidney was left to me by Huang Yun."
"After the operation, Han Ying gave Si Xuezhong a sum of money. It was a lot of money and helped solve a problem for Si Xuezhong. But since then, I have had no contact with Si Xuezhong."
"If I knew that it was Huang Yun's kidney, even if she was dying, I would never agree to it!"
"But I don't know anything..."
Cheng Yingjie's eyes gradually dimmed.
Su Yang was completely paralyzed. Today, he finally understood why Han Ying wanted Si Yao to die!
He thought that Si Yao was Cheng Yingjie's daughter and also Huang Yun's child. Cheng Yingjie did not reject the organ transplant donated by Huang Yun. So, as Cheng Yingjie's daughter, Si Yao's heart would definitely be able to save Cheng Yingjie's life.
Han Ying should have discussed with Si Xuezhong at the beginning, because she felt that Si Xuezhong had taken the money to buy Huang Yun's kidney, and he was more likely to sell Si Yao today.
After all, in Han Ying's opinion, Si Yao is not Si Xuezhong's daughter at all!
It's not worth giving up your family business for an outsider!
He finally understood why Han Ying had to kidnap Si Yao even though she had so many opportunities to do it. It was just for the organ transplant.
The reality of the truth is so pale.
In his previous life, he was wrongfully imprisoned for fifteen years. All he knew was that Si Yao became a vegetable and eventually died. But he didn't know where her heart went, let alone whether Cheng Yingjie survived.
Silence, a long silence, like deathly silence, a silence where not even one can hear breathing.
Su Yang stared at the haggard and swollen Cheng Yingjie, and Cheng Yingjie also lowered his head, not daring to look at Su Yang.
He was not the executor of the crime, but he has always been the beneficiary of the crime...
"You knew everything Han Ying did from beginning to end?"
Su Yang spoke again, and there was no longer much respect in his eyes, only the sharpness of facing the truth nakedly.
Cheng Yingjie shook his head: "If I knew, I would never let her do this. She is a strong woman, but also a pitiful woman. I know clearly that she loves me, even so humbly..."
"You can rest assured that the clues, information, and data on the Dongjiang Province Twin Towers attack and the kidnapping case have been sent to the capital. Han Ying will be arrested soon."
"Everything is over..."
Su Yang gritted his teeth and said, "You said it's over, so it's over. What the hell gives you the right to say it's over?"
"Let me ask you, who will pay for Si Xuezhong's life?"
