Chapter 262: Long Island Night
Wan Guohou looked down at Tao Baihe, his mood was indescribably complicated, and the latter just glared back at him without showing weakness. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info After a few seconds, he took out a thin card bag from the inner pocket of the top, then pulled out a card from it and handed it to Tao Baihe.
Tao Baihe took it and took a look and found that the cards were all in English, and only the photos were recognized by her. She awkwardly pinched the card, her eyes falling on a line of numbers.
"This is my driver's license. Wan Guohou explained, "There is no such thing as a Chinese ID card in the UK, and the document we commonly use is a driver's license." ”
"December 21, 1986?" Tao Baihe muttered, "so young......"
"This is my date of birth. Do I look old?" Wan Guohou looked at her amusedly.
"No, no, that's not what I meant. Tao Baihe looked at the driver's license for a while and returned it to Wan Guohou. Her expression was a little more relaxed, but still wary and suspicious, "I saw your birthday and remembered the coincidence you said earlier. - I know a man who was born on the same day as you, but not in the same year. ”
Tao Baihe's voice revealed a sense of melancholy, and Wan Guohou almost sneered, "Fortunately, I changed my age at the beginning." He thought to himself not without sarcasm.
"Master Hou, if it's convenient, can you let me see your passport again?"
Tao Baihe's almost rude request made Wan Guohou laugh happily, "I usually use my driver's license as my ID, and I don't carry my passport with me, but I can ask Mr. Yue to send it over." His smile was still sweet and serene, as if he didn't take Tao Baihe's words seriously.
Tao Baihe saw that he said it so lightly, but he was embarrassed to insist any longer, "Then forget it." I don't speak English well, and I don't necessarily understand it. ”
"Director Nan seems to be speaking good English, you can ask him to read it for you. Wan Guohou said in a neat manner, so polite that it bordered on mockery.
"No need. Tao Baihe shook his head, "Master Hou, aren't you curious why I suddenly want to see your documents?"
"Of course curious. But do we have to stand at this aisle to speak?" Wan Guohou gestured, "Why don't you go and sit in my study?" ”
Tao Baihe quietly followed Wan Guohou into the study, who closed the door considerately. "Would you like something to drink?"
"I'm not thirsty. "I think you should already know what the New York police have concluded about my dad." ”
Wan Guohou bowed, "I heard what Director Nan said. ”
"I'd like to hear what you think. ”
Wan Guohou unbuttoned his coat, sat down on a single sofa, and crossed his legs. This leisurely posture made Tao Baihe extremely uncomfortable, but because it was in Wanguohou's house, Tao Baihe had to endure his displeasure.
"Mrs. Nan, I don't know how much you've listened to my conversation with Director Minami, but I think you've definitely missed the most important message. Wan Guohou said with a smile, "Before you left the hospital, I had already called someone to urge the police to do their best to solve the case." ”
Tao Baihe was taken aback, and subconsciously sat down on the sofa behind him, "Really?"
This sentence was very rude and rude, but Wan Guohou was not angry, "Really. ”
Tao Baihe stared directly at Wan Guohou blankly, and suddenly his nose was sore, and two lines of tears fell. She wiped her cheeks in embarrassment, but she couldn't wipe away her tears.
"Tears are indeed one of a woman's best weapons against men. Wan Guohou thought to himself, "It's a pity that I don't eat this set." He silently waited for Tao Baihe to cry for a while, then took out a clean handkerchief and handed it over.
Tao Baihe took the handkerchief, wiped her eyes vigorously, and after crying, she became obviously weaker, "Thank you." ”
"I think I can understand your feelings. When my father died, I wasn't there for him or even in time for the funeral. ”
Wan Guohou's tone was very flat, but Tao Baihe heard a kind of powerless sentimentality. "Master Hou, I didn't expect you to have such an encounter. ”
"Life and death are impermanent, cherish the moment. Wan Guohou lowered his eyes, unwilling to let the other party see his thoughts.
Tao Baihe clutched her handkerchief tightly, her eyes a little swollen from crying, which made her look very strange and a little pitiful. "Master Hou, my heart hurts, I've never felt so uncomfortable. ”
"Well, you'll be even more uncomfortable in the future. Wan Guohou thought so, but what he said was, "Mourning is smooth, Mrs. Nan." ”
Tao Baihe let out a long sigh and said a little tiredly, "Anyway, I still want to thank you." ”
Wan Guohou played with the cufflinks and said lightly: "Mrs. Nan is too polite, I invited a few people to the United States, of course I will be responsible for the accident." ”
His words successfully made Tao Baihe, who had just cried, show a sly smile, "Master Hou, how are you going to be responsible?"
"It depends on the outcome of your deliberations with Director South. Wan Guohou said lightly, "In short, I regret this incident, and I will try my best to urge the hospital and the police to give you an explanation." He paused, "Whether you want to go back to China as soon as possible, or you want to stay in the United States for a while." You can stay as long as you want, and your passport is not a problem. ”
Seeing that Tao Baihe was silent, Wan Guohou said casually: "In the past two months, there have been many activities in New York, full of exhibitions, fashion shows, and concerts. I think, Mrs. Nan, you can rest for a while and breathe in the air here. Of course, it's entirely up to you. With that, a mysterious smile flashed in his eyes.
Tao Baihe lowered his head and glanced at his shoes, "Thank you for your kindness." Master Hou, I'm a little hungry, shouldn't I have dinner?"
"Please go straight to the restaurant, I think Director Minami is waiting for you. Wan Guohou stood up, "I still have a little more to do, so I won't accompany him." ”
Tao Baihe nodded, didn't say much, and immediately got up and walked out.
When Wan Guohou was the only one left in the room, he pressed the cufflinks, "Where is the madness?"
Xie Madheart soon came to Wan Guohou's face, and although he had been trying to hide his excitement, the grape-like bony eyes betrayed him.
"Nan Zejiao knows?" Wan Guohou asked straight to the point.
"Got it, Mrs. Nan said. Xie Madness stood in front of Wan Guohou in an orderly manner, "Jiaojiao cried so much that she couldn't do it, and said that she had no appetite and didn't want to eat." ”
But her parents said they were hungry. Wan Guohou thought to himself, "What a wonderful irony." He groaned, "Crazyheart, are you hungry?"
"I'm not hungry, Master Hou. Xie said meekly, "What about you? Have you not eaten well all day? I think you are hungry and thin!"
"I'm fine, silly boy. Wan Guohou smiled. Although that smile was fleeting, it made Xie feel that a beautiful flower had bloomed in his heart.
"Master Hou, you have never taken me to the United States to visit the United States. Xie said coquettishly, "Last year, you brought me to treat my hands, and I only hurriedly turned around a few places, and this year you are even busier." ”
"Later, there will be a chance. Wan Guohou glanced out the window, "Stay with me for a while?"
"Of course you can!" Xie Madheart was overjoyed, and he said cautiously, "Master Hou, do you want to go to the beach?" Obviously, he clearly knew that Wan Guohou liked the sea.
"Go get some thick clothes and hurry up, I'll be waiting for you in the car. As soon as Wan Guohou finished saying this, Xie Madheart hurriedly rushed out.
A few minutes later, Wan Guohou started the car. This was the first time Xie Madxin saw Wan Guohou driving, and he looked around with a fresh feeling, "Master Hou, why don't you call K1 or Z2 to drive?"
"Z2 and Manager Moon are accompanying guests, K1 is tired today and needs to rest. The main thing is that I don't want people to disturb us. Wan Guohou drove the car intently and explained the situation succinctly. When he was driving, his expression was calm and calm, and his beautiful side face made Xie Crazy a little fascinated.
"What are you looking at?" Wan Guohou asked.
Xie Madheart retracted his gaze in embarrassment, "I just think you're so good-looking." He said with a childish smile.
"That's also the result of plastic surgery. Wan Guohou said nonchalantly, "I didn't look like this before. ”
Xie Madxin was dumbfounded, "Have you had plastic surgery?" he subconsciously raised his voice, "Why?"
"Because my previous face ...... ruined. Wan Guohou said, sighing, "Why, you are disappointed to know that my face is not natural?"
"No! no!" Xie said in a hurry, "I don't care about your appearance, even if you look like a circus gorilla, that's my savior!"
Wan Guohou was not amused by Xie Qiangxin's deliberate joke, "Aren't you curious about what happened between me and Nan Zeyu? I can tell you now that my face has become what it is today, it is because of him." ”
Xie Madxin's eyes shot out of anger, "I knew that he was not a good person at first glance! I knew that I was not wrong, he really did very bad and bad things!" As soon as he was in a hurry, his Chinese was not good, and his words became stumbling.
"How do you see that?" Wan Guohou asked in Japanese, obviously intending to cooperate with Xie Qiangxin.
"Intuition. Xie Madxin also spoke Japanese, and immediately smoothed out. "I know you've always been disgusted with him, and I don't think you hate someone for no reason. Moreover, you arranged for me to get close to Nan Zejiao, and let Nan Zejiao enter the entertainment industry, isn't it because she is Nan Zeyu's daughter?"
Wan Guohou smiled, "Not stupid." ”
"Of course. Xie pouted and said, "If I were too stupid, you wouldn't let me do things for you, would you?"
"What kind of person do you think Nan Zeyu is?"
"Arrogant, arrogant, incompetent, and especially takes himself seriously. Xie Mad said indignantly, "I can't see that he has the ability to be such a big official." ”
Wan Guohou smiled dumbly, "Child, you can't see people. Nan Zeyu's ability is very strong, although he seems to have a big frame because he is an official, but that can't be regarded as arrogant. If you want to be arrogant, it's his wife. ”
Xie Yan said unconvinced: "Nan Zeyu has done such a bad thing to you, why do you still help him speak?"
"Only by acknowledging the strength of the enemy can we avoid making mistakes. Wan Guohou said calmly, "I don't like Nan Zeyu, it doesn't mean that I want to say that he is useless." On the contrary, I should affirm all his virtues. He glanced at Xie Madxin, "For example, after Tao couldn't die, his performance was commendable. ”
"That's because it wasn't his dad who died. Xie said angrily.
But the average person will at least disguise it a little bit to show respect and sadness. Nan Zeyu certainly did not fail to understand this rule, but how did he do it? Calmly analyzed the matter, politely faced the police's questioning, cooperated with the police in investigating the case, and did not forget to put forward his own views in a timely manner, and finally emphasized his identity -- that point strongly proved that it was impossible for him to commit crimes in a foreign country. ”
Xie Madxin muttered: "Master Hou, I really don't understand, even if what you say is right, you can frame him." ”
"Why would I do such a stupid thing?" Wan Guohou said coldly, "In the hospital I invested, a person I invited to see a doctor died, and the murderer was his son-in-law. What is the reason for this son-in-law, as a professional police officer?"
He reluctantly looked out the window, "Then what do you want to do?" He looked at the street lamps that flickered in the night, and felt that they were the traces left by meteors when they crossed the sky.
"You don't need to know that much. In fact, the less you know, the better it is for you. Wan Guohou said earnestly, "Let Nan Zejiao like you and trust you, that's enough." You don't have to worry about anything else. ”
"But I want to help you do more. Xie Crazy turned his head sharply and spoke in Chinese again, "Hou Ye, as long as you say a word, you can do whatever you want me to do." I can even kill Nan Zeyu's family for you, and I won't even frown!"
Wan Guohou didn't turn his head, but he still felt Xie Madxin's fiery gaze, "Madheart, don't think nonsense, okay?"
"Master Hou, I don't have to think nonsense!" Xie Mad was anxious, "The people I love in my life have left me soon, and I don't have time to do anything for them! Whether it's my mother or Li Ti! I don't want you to be my eternal regret, so I must do my best to help you avenge!"
"But I'm not your mother, nor is I your so-called friend Li Ti. Wan Guohou sank his face, "I am a person without a heart, and on the day my family was destroyed, my heart died with my relatives." Don't you think it's ridiculous that you want to force someone who has no heart to give you sincerity?"
"Master Hou, I didn't mean that!" Xie Madheart choked up and said, "I really, just want to help you!"
"Be nice, don't mess with me. Wan Guohou slammed the steering wheel, "Don't go to the beach, it's too late." ”
Xie Madxin sat in the passenger seat, tears streaming down his face.
