Everything was over. It ended in such a way.
Li Kaishan had finished his life in less than 60 years, leaving people with a sigh.
Li Kaishan was dead, but the matter in Mount Wang was not over yet. Chen Xing learned from inside information that Li Kaishan had sent a letter to the investigation team. It was sent the moment before Li Kaishan died. The letter recorded too many dark secrets in Mount Wang over the years. Li Kaishan wrote the letter as a person who had experienced it personally or as a powerless bystander. Then, as he said, everything was over.
Li Kaishan had used his death to bear his own responsibility. Was it tragic or a cowardly escape?
Chen Xing did not know. When the investigation in Mount Wang was over, everything would have its own public opinion.
Chen Xing hesitated for a day at the Party School. In the end, he decided to ask for leave and go to Mount Wang to attend Li Kaishan's funeral.
Li Kaishan's death touched Chen Xing a lot. They had sat together and talked before, but now they were separated by life and death. Chen Xing could not understand Li Kaishan's thoughts before his death. There was a good saying that it was better to live than to die. As long as there was a glimmer of hope, no one was willing to die. Even if Li Kaishan really had something to do with Qian Xinlai, he would eventually be punished by the law. Chen Xing also believed that Li Kaishan would not be sentenced to death. Moreover, this was just speculation. It was possible that Li Kaishan had nothing to do with Qian Xinlai. However, Li Kaishan finally chose to die. No one knew what Li Kaishan was thinking at the moment before his death. Chen Xing suddenly regretted that he had not observed Li Kaishan's words and deeds in the hospital at that time. Perhaps he could have seen some clues at that time.
A man's death was like a lamp going out. It was too late to say anything now.
Chen Xing was very low-key when he came to Mount Wang to attend Li Kaishan's funeral. He did not tell anyone, not even Li Kaishan's family. After inquiring about the address of Li Kaishan's funeral, Chen Xing quietly went to attend and then left quietly.
This was Chen Xing's last farewell to Li Kaishan. No matter what the final investigation team's result was, regardless of whether Li Kaishan was good or bad, or whether he had merits or demerits, Chen Xing came to see Li Kaishan off as a colleague.
In summer, the weather in Mount Wang was very hot, which was typical of a mountain city.. Chen Xing, walking on the street, he felt a sense of sadness. There were too many original sins in this city.
The investigation team was still in the Mountain Gaze, so Chen Xing didn't contact them. He chose to come and leave on the same day.
However, Chen Xing stayed one night in Nanzhou.
Huang Ming was in Nanzhou. Chen Xing and Huang Ming hadn't seen each other for a long time. Last time, they had come and gone in a hurry. This time, Chen Xing deliberately stayed in Nanzhou and asked Huang Ming to come out for a chat.
In addition to Huang Ming, Lu Ming, Chang Shengjun, Wu Hansheng, and the others, Chen Xing planned to spend one night with these people. These people were not only superiors and subordinates, but also allies and friends.
In the Jindu Hotel in Nanzhou, Chen Xing and Huang Ming sat in the once familiar private room. They looked a little sad. They hadn't been here for a year or two, but they didn't expect the layout of the private room to be exactly the same as before.
In the past, this private room was specially reserved for you. Later, when you were transferred, this private room was still kept. Previously, Little Jing said that you had left the South China Sea, and there were very few chances for you to come back. She suggested that this private room be used to entertain other VIPs, but I rejected her suggestion. I said that even if you would never come back, this private room had to be kept, and the layout inside couldn't be changed. Whatever it was originally, it had to be maintained. Huang Ming said with a smile.
"There's no need. Your Xiaojing is right. The number of times I will come here in the future can be counted on one hand. There's no need to keep such a private room. Besides, even if I come, I can just use any private room. It's not necessary." Chen Xing shook his head with a smile.
"Even if you don't come again, I still have to keep this private room. People always have to keep some memories."
"When did you become so emotional?" Chen Xing looked at Huang Ming with a funny look.
It's not that I've become sentimental, but we're already in our forties. Tell me, what's the point of living? In the past, I wanted to do something big and become a billionaire on the Forbes list. Now that I think about it, other than my inner vanity, what's the point of doing that? "Speaking of money, the money I have now can't be used up even in several lifetimes. There's no need to work hard to make money. Sometimes I feel that I have lost my purpose in life." Huang Ming shook his head and smiled.
"I didn't expect that after not seeing you for a while, you have changed so much." Chen Xing looked at Huang Ming and was a little surprised.
"Well, no matter how much I changed, I am still a businessman full of money. Although I feel that money is meaningless to me, I can't stop moving forward."
"Why?"
"Think about it. Now the company is so big, and there are so many employees under me. If I don't work hard and the company closes down one day, so many people under me will lose their jobs." Huang Ming smiled. "So sometimes I don't work for myself, but I have to be responsible for the employees under me."
"So, as a businessman full of money, your realm has been improved. You have a sense of mission and social responsibility." Chen Xing couldn't help laughing and said with some emotion, "Huang Ming, you are right to have these ideas. I stayed in the mountains with Ningning for a month and saw too many poor families. We live in the city. Maybe we think it is normal to have fish and meat every day, but it is just an ordinary life."
"But they, the farmers living in the depths of the mountains, some of them have never even walked out of the mountains in their entire lives. They are afraid of the outside society, but they are full of hope. They also know that staying in the mountains for a lifetime will never lead them out, but they are old and have no courage to come out again. So they hope that the next generation can walk out of the mountains, but their children still can't receive education. They can't go to kindergarten, primary school, or middle school like normal children. They don't know what nine-year compulsory education is. They only hope that their children can study and walk out of the mountains in the future. This is their biggest wish."
"Huang Ming, I'm telling you this because I hope you can do more good deeds. If you feel that the simple business has made you lose your drive, then you might as well shift your focus and pay more attention to charity. Do what you can. This is actually the social responsibility and responsibility that you should have as an entrepreneur."
Huang Ming hadn't expected that Chen Xing would suddenly say this to him. He was originally joking, but after hearing Chen Xing's words, he also fell into deep thought. Huang Ming had never thought about the social responsibility and responsibility of an entrepreneur. In the past, he only thought about making money himself. Later, when the company grew bigger, he only thought about taking on the responsibility of being the boss of the company so that the employees who followed him would not lose their jobs in the future. Now, Chen Xing's words shook Huang Ming's heart.
The social responsibility and responsibility of an entrepreneur was a very big topic, but it was also very difficult to do it. If someone else had said this to Huang Ming, he would have scoffed at it. However, when the person who said it was Chen Xing, Huang Ming had to take it seriously. From Chen Xing's words, Huang Ming also felt the change in his old classmate. His old classmate seemed to have changed a lot in the past one or two years when his career had been thwarted. Thinking of what had happened in Mount Wang and Chen Xing's sudden visit to the Nanhai, Huang Ming actually wanted to ask if Chen Xing's visit had anything to do with what had happened in Mount Wang. However, when the words were on the tip of his tongue, he swallowed them in the end.
