Chapter 229: He won't be back tonight

But every house that is a little old, there will be all kinds of strange and strange strange stories, this old street has existed for centuries, and there are not many strange stories.

Usually, it's just a strange thing to hear.

But this situation made Xiaohai break out in a cold sweat.

Just as he was about to reach out to pull Ruan Zhi, the sound of a car sounded at the end of the street.

From far and near, the car slowly emerged from the mist.

Before Xiao Hai could react, out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Ruan Zhi walking over.

The car stops and the door in the back seat opens.

Xiao Hai fixed his eyes and saw that a man and a woman came down from the back seat, he didn't know the woman, he knew the man, it was Ruan Zhi's object, the doctor surnamed Xu.

"Childish. Xu Huaishen took a few steps in front of Ruan Zhi, reached out and held her hand, and a gentle voice came, "It's been a long time?"

Ruan Zhi blinked, and when he saw Bai Wei walking behind him, he felt that his throat was a little dry.

She nodded, "It's six o'clock." ”

Xu Huaishen held her cold fingers and frowned, "Go in first." ”

He took her hand and walked in, but Ruan Zhi's feet seemed to have roots, as if he was fixed there.

Xu Huaishen looked back at her, his gentle eyes seemed to be dyed by the fog of the night, but looking at it at the moment, it made Ruan Zhi feel a strange sense of distance.

She knew she shouldn't ask at this time, but she couldn't help it, her lips moved, and the question popped up, "Didn't you say that you won't come back until the day after tomorrow?"

Xu Huai's deep eyes were slightly stunned, but it was only for a moment, he shook her hand with his palm, and his voice was still gentle, "I will come back if I have something temporary, and I will tell you more later." ”

Bai Wei walked over, her eyes were red, and her expression was a little tired, "I'm sorry, Ruan Zhi, it's actually because of my ......"

Xu Huaishen suddenly glanced at her, Bai Wei's words stopped abruptly and did not say anything more.

"Let's go in first. Xu Huaishen said.

Bai Wei opened her mouth: "Huaishen, Miss Ruan is here, I won't go in." ”

Xu Huaishen glanced at her, took out a door card from his pocket and handed it over, "I won't send you in, if you don't have anything, I'll send it to you." ”

Bai Wei seemed to hesitate for a moment before taking the door card, lowering her head and swiping the card in.

The door closed, and Xu Huaishen looked back at Ruan Zhi.

But his gaze only swept over her face, and he took her hand and walked to the car.

He got into Ruan Zhi's car, opened the back seat door, and sat on it with her.

The door closes to keep the coolness out of the outside.

The car was warm, but Ruan Zhi shivered involuntarily.

Xu Huaishen said: "Who asked you to come?"

The tone was different from the previous gentleness, but at this moment, a chill that sent chills down the spine oozed.

Ruan Zhi looked at him, the warmth in the car wrapped her, it was not so cold anymore, and her mind seemed to have regained a little clarity.

At this time, she noticed that Xu Huaishen was not the same as usual.

On weekdays, he always wears a white shirt and a dark-colored jacket.

But at this moment, he is wearing a black dress.

Ruan Zhi shook his head, "No one asked me to come." ”

"Ruan Zhi, you don't lie. Xu Huaishen said, "Is it the Xu family?"

Ruan Zhi pursed his lips and looked at him, and said after a while: "It doesn't matter who it is. ”

Importantly, she called him in the morning and he told her that he would not be back until the day after tomorrow.

But he showed up here at night.

Moreover, he did not show the appearance of being in the dust.

He was also with Bai Wei.

They came together.

This shows that either he was back a long time ago, or he didn't travel at all.

Ruan Zhi is uncomfortable now, why did Xu Huaishen lie to himself.

Xu Huaishen saw her emotions and held her fingers in his palm, "Bai Wei's grandfather, who is also my teacher, passed away an hour ago. ”

Ruan Zhi was stunned, and instantly didn't know what kind of expression he should make.

Xu Huaishen said: "I flew back from a temporary change of itinerary, and I haven't had time to tell you yet." Bai Wei's grandfather had a painting in the Xu Mansion before his death, and I took her to pick up the painting and return it to its original owner. ”

"That's it...... Is that all?"

"Well, that's it. Xu Huaishen stared into her eyes and replied.

Over there, Bai Wei had already taken the painting and walked out again.

When passing by Ruan Zhi's car, Bai Wei's footsteps paused slightly, but immediately sped up and got into the car that came.

Xu Huaishen shook Ruan Zhi's hand heavily, "It's not too early, let Xiaohai send you back to rest." ”

Ruan Zhi subconsciously grabbed his hand, "Aren't you going back?"

Xu Huaishen's hand gently stroked her eyebrows, and said gently, "I'll go back later." ”

Ruan Zhi hesitated, but still let go of his hand, "Hmm." ”

Seeing Xu Huaishen get out of the car and get back into the car in front of him, Ruan Zhi's heart couldn't tell the sense of loss.

Although Xu Huaishen rushed back temporarily for something, he did lie to her.

After going back, Ruan Zhi finished washing up and didn't feel sleepy.

She glanced at the clock on the wall, and it was almost eleven o'clock.

She didn't know when Xu Huaishen would come back, but she still remembered what he said when they parted: Come back later.

Ruan Zhi misses him.

In the past few days that he has been away from Liangcheng, she has been thinking about him all the time.

She knew it was useless, but she couldn't help it.

Finally, she counted down with her fingers, he came back two days early, she wanted to see him, she wanted to hug him and talk.

Ruan Zhi walked downstairs, took a small bag of plum blossoms from the snack bag, and turned on the TV while opening it.

The TV picture was still buffering, but the mobile phone next to me suddenly flashed.

She thought it was sent by Xu Huaishen, but when she picked it up, it was sent from an unfamiliar number.

clicked in, and it was a line of words: Miss Ruan, Huaishen will not go back tonight.

Ruan Zhi's fingers clenching the phone tightened, and two faces flashed quickly in his mind.

Is it Mrs. Xu?

Or Bai Wei?

Ruan Zhi's heart was slightly cold, and he felt that it was mostly Bai Wei.

She immediately dialed Xu Huaishen's phone with her mobile phone, but his mobile phone was still turned off.

Looking at the message sent just now, Ruan Zhi felt an impulse in his heart and dialed it according to that number.

The phone rang several times before it was picked up.

Ruan Zhi held his breath and did not speak, and there was no inquiry over there, and the voice from the earpiece was a little noisy.

It's like someone inadvertently clicked the answer button.

Ruan Zhi held the phone, but did not hang up immediately.

After a while, the noise faded away, and the surroundings seemed to be much quieter.

Immediately after, she heard Bai Wei's voice.

"Huaishen, I'm so uncomfortable. ”

Ruan Zhi's teeth bit his lower lip gently, because of nervousness, his fingers pinched the bag tightly, and the bone joints were slightly white because of the force.

"Huai Shen...... Don't go, stay with me, okay?" Bai Wei's begging voice came clearly.

Through the screen, Ruan Zhi seemed to be able to imagine the picture over there: Bai Wei pitifully grabbed the hem of Xu Huaishen's clothes, begging lonely.

After a few moments, she heard a man's voice sound.

"Hmm. ”

He only hummed.

For a short moment, nothing else was said.

"Huaishen, can you sit down? I'm so tired. ”

"Huaishen, will you stay with me tonight?"

Ruan Zhi's heart was ignited by a fire, she held her mobile phone and sneered: "Bai Wei, you really should be an actor." ”

The "......" end was really quiet.

Ruan Zhi has been listening to Bai Wei talking, but he has never heard Xu Huaishen speak, except for the one just now, the man over there seems to have become a dumb person, and he only heard Bai Wei talking non-stop throughout the whole process, "Xu Huaishen" never made a sound at all.

But no one paid attention to her, and the performance continued over there.

Just when Ruan Zhi wanted to hang up the phone, a familiar voice came from the other end.

"Childish ......" seems to be a name shouted in a confused state, but it is so clear.

"......" Ruan Zhi froze suddenly.

The blood all over his body coagulated at this moment.

Before Ruan Zhi could speak, the other end had already hung up first.

Ruan Zhi held the mobile phone, still maintaining the previous posture, and sat stiffly on the sofa.

After a while, she suddenly stood up, put her phone in her pocket, went upstairs and hurriedly grabbed a coat and ran out the door.

But as soon as she ran into the yard, she saw two strange men guarding the gate of her yard.

When Ruan Zhi rushed out, the two men immediately turned their gazes, and through the night, the cold eyes seemed to pass through, nailing Ruan Zhi to the spot.

There was someone watching from outside her yard?

Is it someone from the Xu family?

Ruan Zhi sneered.

Mrs. Xu really did everything to separate her from Xu Huaishen.

But she obviously didn't know enough about Ruan Zhi.

At this moment, even if there is a mountain of swords and a sea of fire outside, I am afraid it will not stop Ruan Zhi from going out to find Xu Huaishen's heart!

Nguyen Zhi didn't have a car.

She went back and forth to the crew, all of which were driven by Xiaohai.

She used to be troublesome with cars, so she didn't use it all the time.

But now I realize how convenient it is to have a car at hand.

She didn't open the door, but stood in the courtyard, through the iron gate, in front of the two men, and dialed Xiaohai's phone.

"Xiaohai, you come and pick me up right away. ”

"Okay, Miss Nguyen. ”

hung up the phone, but Ruan Zhi felt a cool breeze surging behind him.

Through the shadows from the street lamp, she saw that behind her shadow, there were two more shadows.

At the same time as his heart was shocked, two hands had fallen on Ruan Zhi's shoulders.

Ruan Zhi subconsciously turned around, the person had been forcibly pressed down, and he had to squat down.

Two strange men again.

They left and right, imprisoning Ruan Zhi.

Outside the courtyard gate, two other men were still standing.

Ruan Zhi was slightly shocked, how much eyeliner did Mrs. Xu arrange around her house?

With so many people, is it just to prevent her from leaving the house and not going to find Xu Huaishen?

No!

And that's not all!

Ruan Zhi faintly felt that things were not so simple.

What kind of family is the Xu family?

Since you have to do it, it certainly can't be so simple.

Before Ruan Zhi could finish his thoughts, he saw the iron gate slowly open, and a car slowly drove over.

The car drove closer, and Ruan Zhi recognized that it was Ruan's car.

It was Ruan Xi Minh's car.

However, at this moment, he cooperated with these people and appeared in Ruan Zhi's field of vision.

What this means, it goes without saying.

Ruan Zhi's heart was half cold, and he watched the car stop, and the driver of the Ruan family walked down from above, "Miss, Mr. called you to go home and live." I was asked to pick you up. ”

Ruan Zhi said: "I will not go back. ”

The driver bowed his head and didn't even dare to look at the men standing around, but said, "You better go back, Mr. and Mrs. miss you very much." ”

Ruan Zhi frowned, and his voice was a little colder, "What do you want to do here?"

The driver's eyes flickered, but he stepped aside and did not speak.

Ruan Zhi was finally forcibly escorted into the Ruan family's car and returned to the Ruan family.

The courtyard of the Ruan family revealed an eerie silence in the night.

Although everything looks normal, it is full of abnormalities.

Ruan Zhi even felt that in the shadows of every place, there were people sent by the Xu family lurking inside.

The car stopped, and the two men who followed them got out of the car, guarding the door with cold faces.

And Ruan Zhi could only follow the driver into the house.

The house was brightly lit, and it was already late at night, but Ruan Ximing's family of three was still sitting in the living room neatly dressed, as if waiting for something.

Seeing Ruan Zhi coming in, Wan Fangfang was the first to get up and come over, and took Ruan Zhi's hand and said excitedly: "Ruan Zhi, are you okay?

Ruan Zhi silently withdrew his hand and looked at Wan Fangfang coldly, "What do you mean?"

Wan Fangfang's expression was stunned, but a flash of panic flashed in her eyes, and she pretended to be confused and asked, "What?"

Over there, Ruan Jiani had already stood up, "In the evening, there was suddenly a group of people in the house, they stayed around the house, cut off the signal source, the phone couldn't go out, and we weren't allowed to go out." Just an hour ago, a man came and said, let the driver of the house pick you up. Ruan Zhi, what the hell is going on?"

Ruan Zhi looked at Ruan Jiani, her eyes were still cold, "Ruan Jiani, I haven't seen you for a while, your acting skills are still so bad?"

Nguyen Jiani: "......"

"What do you want to do with those people in such a play?" Ruan Zhi asked directly.

Wan Fangfang explained: "No, it's not......"

Ruan Zhi just looked at her quietly, didn't speak, just looked quietly, with heavy eyes.

Her eyes were too direct and sharp, and Wan Fangfang, who was staring at her, felt furious in her heart, always feeling that she had seen through everything, so she felt that she couldn't hide it, but she insisted on hiding it.

Wan Fangfang's heart was entangled, and her eyes began to flicker, lowering her eyelashes, avoiding Ruan Zhi's eyes, "Ruan Zhi, you...... Don't blame your dad. ”

Ruan Zhi turned his head, and his eyes fell on Ruan Ximing in the wheelchair.

Wan Fangfang suddenly knelt down with a thud, "Ruan Zhi, just beg for you, just help us this time, just once." Last time, I told you that my family's company needs 20 million turnover, and if you can't come up with any more money, the company will have to sell. Ruan Zhi, the company is your father's life's work, how can you sell it?"

Ruan Zhi laughed, "Yes, the company can't be sold because of hard work, so you have to sell your daughter to keep the company?"

"Ruan Zhi ......" Wan Fangfang didn't know what to say, but was a little anxious, "Your father is like this, if you don't help us, the Xu family won't let us go." You know, the Xu family wants to pinch us to death, it's so easy. Ruan Zhi, I know that you are actually a knife mouth tofu heart, and you have always felt sorry for your father, right? Just this time, I promise. As long as you get the money and solve the company's crisis, you can do it. ”

"......" Ruan Zhi was silent for a while.

She lowered her eyes and stood there quietly, her slender fingers brushing the hem of her clothes from moment to moment, as if she was thinking, but she didn't seem to be thinking at all.

Wan Fangfang didn't bother her, just waiting for her to make a decision.

Just then, footsteps rang out again.

Ruan Zhi looked back, but saw a tall and thin man walking in.

The man looked about the same age as Ruan Zhi, he looked good, he was handsome, handsome.

But Ruan Zhi could still see at a glance that there was some dishonest light in his eyes.

From the moment he entered the door, the man's gaze fell straight on Ruan Zhi's body.

Seeing that Ruan Zhi was also looking at him, he restrained himself and smiled slightly: "Hello." ”

He stretched out his hand to Ruan Zhi, "The first time you cooperate, take care of me." ”

"Cooperation?" Ruan Zhi raised his eyebrows, but looked at Wan Fangfang, "What are you going to do?"

Wan Fangfang bit her lip, it seemed difficult to speak, but in the end, the interests were greater than everything, she gritted her teeth and said: "The people over there in the Xu family said that as long as you stay in the same room with him for one night." ”

"Stay overnight?" Ruan Zhi chewed on these four meaningful words and smiled nonchalantly.

"It's just in the same room, you don't need to do anything. Wan Fangfang hurriedly explained, but she was afraid that Ruan Zhi would not do it, "As soon as the morning dawns, the company's crisis can be solved." ”

Ruan Zhi interrupted her, "Why don't you let Ruan Jiani sacrifice?"

“...... But the Xu family only needs you. ”

"Understood. Ruan Zhi nodded, the smile on his lips was so cold, "I'm being sold and still helping people make money?"

Who are these people around her?

One by one, they don't live well, and they all learn the set in the TV series to the fullest.

Still playing conspiracy?

She just wants to live a simple life, but these people are not as good as she wants.

Ruan Zhi said: "I'm sorry, I'm the person who can't stand the mercy of others. ”

After she finished speaking, she lifted her feet and walked out.

"Ruan Zhi, you can't get out. Wan Fangfang shouted, "And even if you go out, Xu Huaishen and Bai Wei will sleep together." ”

Ruan Zhi's footsteps paused at the gate.

Her back stiffened, but her feet felt like lead, and she could no longer take a step.

Wan Fangfang rushed over from behind and grabbed her cold hand, "Mrs. Xu said, Xu Huaishen doesn't really like you at all, it's probably just a freshness." No, you will know as soon as you try it. So I did this game tonight, when I learned that Bai Wei's grandfather died and Bai Wei was in pain, Xu Huaishen changed his itinerary and rushed back from other places, and he was also by Bai Wei's side tonight. Ruan Zhi, although it is cruel for me to say this, it is true. If you can't see through, you'll only end up hurting more. ”

"Really?" Ruan Zhi muttered as he stared at the cold night outside the house.

It's like asking Wan Fangfang, and it's like asking herself.
