Chapter 502: The Sleeping Lioness
I also know that today's scene has completely exceeded our expectations, at the beginning, I took Xia Xiaoxiao to celebrate her birthday and celebrate the victory in the competition, originally this was a day of double happiness.
But in the blink of an eye, things came to this point, Liu Longyin and I were almost slaughtered, even if we were lucky enough to escape, but Uncle Tie Ying and Liu Longyin, these three of my benefactors, were seriously injured, what else do I have to celebrate with Xia Xiaoxiao.
In this atmosphere, I couldn't have an in-depth chat with her, let alone have a deep chat with her, so I couldn't find out the details about the dark hall.
Anyway, there is no obstacle between Xia Xiaoxiao and me, and when this time is over, I will find the right time to set up information.
The vicissitudes of life in the back of the man with glasses reveal endless sadness, and I can clearly feel that his heavy and desolate heart is scarred.
His own daughter, who is still so smart and well-behaved, is about to end her life, and the white-haired person sends the black-haired person, how can the father stand it.
However, the man with glasses didn't ask me for blood ginseng, he didn't force me, let alone force me, but at the end, he told me the true situation of Ponytail's condition, I know, he told me this, or because he wanted to put the last bit of hope on me, hoping that I could take the initiative to lend a hand and save Ponytail's life.
And the ponytail herself, but want to hide this matter, it can be seen, she really doesn't want me to be embarrassed, she told me, she looks down on life and death, but can live happily in a limited life, she said, she doesn't need blood ginseng, don't want to force things that don't belong to her, it can be seen, her heart is really open-minded, but, is there really someone who is not afraid of death?
I don't know, I don't know if the ponytail is so detached, anyway, if I live every day waiting to die, I will definitely not be happy. The taste of waiting for death is more painful than death itself, how strong is the ponytail to look down on this pain?
Perhaps, she didn't look down on it, perhaps, she just lived in the abyss of pain, otherwise, the man with glasses would not tell me the truth at the end, he just wanted his daughter to have a chance to live, and he hoped that I could give her daughter such a chance.
If I could, of course I would be desperate to save the ponytail, her kindness to me is so deep, I can't repay her too much, it's just that I'm helpless, my Xu Nan is in danger, and I became a vegetative person because of me, no matter what, I can't give up Xu Nan, even if I want to save the ponytail, I can't.
But, why, when I hear the man with glasses say that a ponytail can only live for a month at most, my heart hurts like this? This is not only the pain of guilt, but also the pain of regret that the ponytail is about to leave my world completely, a pain that cannot be seen or touched. Heartache, like a knife twisting.
My eyes began to become glazed, and I watched the man in glasses slowly walk out of the jungle, onto the road, and towards the black car.
During this period, he did not stop for a moment, his vicissitudes of life, farther and farther away, more and more blurred, until he got into the black car, and his back disappeared.
The car also roared away, leaving behind flying dust.
I stood in the jungle, I couldn't see the shadow of the car, let alone the man with glasses and the ponytail, but in my mind, the figure of the ponytail kept appearing, and the scenes that I had been with her flashed quickly from my mind, and the evening breeze brought out my endless worries.
I'm wondering if God is joking with me on purpose, in fact, this is not a big deal, if Ponytail had told me the truth earlier when she went to my school, I could have begged my dad to give her the blood ginseng, then, everything after that, no longer exists, and I don't have to feel so guilty about her now.
But on the contrary, the development of things seriously deviated from the normal track, getting worse and worse, my father was arrested by the Hong Gang, and I came to the provincial capital alone, just to save my father, but in the process things became more and more inextricable. I have also walked into the ghost gate countless times, and more importantly, the innocent Xu Nan was mixed in, she ran for love, was injured for love, and was finally arrested by Wang Sen, suffered from inner torture, and finally chose to commit suicide under my knife, and has not woken up yet.
My most beloved woman, who has experienced so much pain, is now lying in bed, life is about to die, how can I bear it? Even if I die, I will try my best to save her, because of this, the ponytail. After all, it can only become a regret in my life, what can I do for her except a sigh?
There must be cause and effect, cause and effect cycle, things from the beginning of a simple line, to today's dead knot, I can't untie, I can't untie, I can't untie, only let the ponytail's life fade with the wind, even if she has helped me countless times, I can only do this, this is my fate. ad_250_left();
Another gust of wind blew through my thoughts, and I struck a slam spirit, and then exhaled a long breath, leaving aside the superfluous worries and emptying my heart.
Now, I can't manage too much, in order to save my father, in order to save Xu Nan, and even said, in order to save my life and Liu's predecessors, next, I still have a lot of things to do, the thorns on the road ahead, more and more lush and complicated, in addition to the big obstacle of the Hong Gang, now there is a huge Chu family, and my road to saving my father is no longer ordinarily difficult.
But even so, I still have to overcome all obstacles and use my life to open up this path until I succeed.
Thinking of this, I shook my head sharply, took a step, and walked towards the Land Rover on the road.
The light of the street lamp reflected on my face, making my expression clear and distinct.
At this moment, in my eyes, there is only perseverance, my expression, cold and persistent, but there is a hidden pride in my heart.
The man with glasses said that the ponytail thinks that my future is limitless, and that I have a great future in the future, so let me walk out of this broad road and go to the top of my life, I can't do anything for the ponytail, but at least, I can't live up to her expectations of me, that's all.
Soon, I walked to the side of the Land Rover, and when I arrived here, I was stunned to find that in the car, in addition to Xia Xiaoxiao, there were two other people, that is, the short and fat man and the tall and thin man who had been with Liu Longyin before, and they were sitting in the driver's seat and the passenger seat respectively.
I paused slightly, sat in the back seat of the car, and then said, "Two seniors, are you here?"
The short and fat man sitting in the driver's seat replied in a deep voice: "Throne Liu is afraid that you are not safe alone, let us stay and protect you!"
After listening to his words, my heart was touched again. I don't know what I can do, why are so many people so selfless to help me, the ponytail is, the willow dragon yin, too. She almost died for me today, and finally got a gunshot wound, but when she left, she was the first to care about my safety, which made me say something good.
When I was silent, Xia Xiaoxiao beside me suddenly said loudly: "Xu Can, there are so many things happening today, I won't go to your house, I'll go back first!"
When she said this, Xia Xiaoxiao's voice was hoarse, and there was a lot of entanglement and helplessness in her expression, as if she had been brewing for a long time before saying this.
I also know that today's scene has completely exceeded our expectations, at the beginning, I took Xia Xiaoxiao to celebrate her birthday and celebrate the victory in the competition, originally this was a day of double happiness. But in the blink of an eye, things came to this point, Liu Longyin and I were almost slaughtered, even if we were lucky enough to escape, but Uncle Tie Ying and Liu Longyin, these three of my benefactors, were seriously injured, what else do I have to celebrate with Xia Xiaoxiao. In this atmosphere, I couldn't have an in-depth chat with her, let alone have a deep chat with her, so I couldn't find out the details about the dark hall. Anyway, there is no obstacle between Xia Xiaoxiao and me, and when this time is over, I will find the right time to set up information.
And Xia Xiaoxiao knows that today's events have nothing to do with her, she blames herself, she is embarrassed to go to my house again, I understand her, and that's the only way, so I didn't keep her, and nodded directly: "Okay, I'll send you back!"
Hearing this, Xia Xiaoxiao smiled bitterly. He said softly: "Your current situation is still very dangerous, so you don't need to send me!"
Xia Xiaoxiao's voice was full of loss and pain, but she was considerate of me, knowing my current situation, I completely offended the Chu family, and I had to guard against the other party's plot at all times, I was not good at staying outside for too long. Therefore, I had to listen to her again, not send her home, and in the end, according to Xia Xiaoxiao's words, put her in a Hongbang farm in the city where I passed on my way home. Once there, she can ask the Hong Gang to take her home.
This is a large nightclub, not long after entering the city, we arrived near the nightclub, waiting for Xia Xiaoxiao to get off the bus. I also got out of the car, and then, I looked at her deeply and said apologetically: "Xiaoxiao, I'm sorry, I can't spend my birthday with you, as soon as I am free in the past two days, I will look for you and make up for you!"
Hearing my words, Xia Xiaoxiao's eyes turned red as soon as she brushed them, and her nose seemed to be a little sour, and she said to me in a very hoarse voice: "I'm sorry for you, if it weren't for me, you and the Chu family wouldn't have gotten into trouble to this point, but don't worry, when Chu Jie wakes up, I will talk to him and ask him not to target you again!"
I pursed my mouth and said in a firm tone: "No need, things have come to this point, it's useless for you to tell him, you should know what he is, just with his mentality of retribution, he will definitely not let me go, this matter is not just a grudge between me and him personally, their Chu family has already targeted my family as a whole." Besides, my family almost died at the hands of the Chu family, and I can't give up, so this matter can't be adjusted anymore, just stay at home and don't worry about it!"
Xia Xiaoxiao bit her lip, wanted to say something, but didn't know how to speak, and looked like she wanted to say something.
I immediately grinned, showed a relaxed smile, and said softly to her: "Okay, don't get entangled, hurry up and ask someone to send you back, I should also go home and see how my mother is!"
To be honest, I'm very worried about Liu Longyin now, no matter how strong she is, she is also flesh and blood, she was shot and shed so much blood, how can she bear the body of a woman, I am really afraid that something will happen to her.
So, with that, I turned around. Get ready to get on board.
But at this time, Xia Xiaoxiao suddenly stopped me: "Xu Can!"
I stopped, turned to look at her, and said, "What's wrong?"
Finally, Xia Xiaoxiao still mustered up the courage to say to me: "That, Tang Rui, does she like you?"
After listening to Xia Xiaoxiao's words, I suddenly felt a little sudden, no wonder Xia Xiaoxiao's expression has been a little weird since the beginning, not only for my guilt, but also for loss and sorrow, and the spirit is not good. It turned out that all this was just because she cared about the ponytail.
Indeed, to speak of conditions, ponytails throughout the provincial capital. I'm afraid they are all unique existences, which is why the Hong Gang tries every means to get married, not to mention, the relationship between Ponytail and me is not ordinary.
Last time, at Chu Jie's party, I was in deep danger, and the ponytail came to the rescue, and the kind of friendship she expressed was beyond the boundaries of ordinary friends, so even Xia felt it, and the ponytail was not ordinary to me, so he would take the initiative to find me afterwards, saying that he supported me and Xia Xiaoxiao together, for fear that I would snatch his ponytail.
At that time, Xia Xiaoxiao was also present, and she was still the heroine of the party, so it was impossible for her not to see it. Ponytail and I have a special relationship. And tonight, the ponytail is even more for me to pull her father, not hesitating to offend the Chu family, to save me, in the end, the man with glasses also deliberately talked to me alone for a while, this kind of signs, how can Xia Xiaoxiao not worry.
It's just that I can't tell Xia Xiaoxiao the real reason, even if I and Ponytail are not a couple, but I can't explain the relationship with her, because, she helped me so much, just because I am Wu Lai, Wu Lai's identity, I will never leak it now. Especially for Xia Xiaoxiao.
After pondering for a while, I could only lie and say: "What do you think, I just are good friends with her, and I used to play a lot when I was a child, don't get me wrong, you have to believe me, I only have you in my heart!"
Hearing this, Xia Xiaoxiao's face finally improved, and the melancholy in her eyes disappeared, and then, she suddenly walked up to me, stood on tiptoe and kissed my forehead, and said with a smile: "I believe in you!"
Four words express Xia Xiaoxiao's unconditional trust in me.
A woman who is lost in love is too easy to believe in the man she loves, and my lie does not require any skill at all. With just a small guarantee, Xia Xiaoxiao is convinced that she loves me, she has loved me to death, and she has lost her original IQ.
Who said that a woman in love has an IQ of zero, this is really true.
It would be nice if she could be so simple and silly happy, but there will always be a day when lies will be exposed, and such a day is not far off, and when the time comes, she will see her beloved man and her family hostile, and even find out. The love she is convinced of is just a use, what a blow will it be to her?
I don't dare to think about it, the more I think about it, the more ashamed I feel in my heart, in order to complete my goal, the people I hurt are not only ponytails, but also Xia Xiaoxiao who is lost in love in front of me, this kind of damage is irreparable and cannot be changed, what I can do now is to learn to be ruthless, learn to be indifferent, even if I lose the world, I can't bear Xu Nan.
After thinking about it, I directly abandoned the kindness and restored my Xu Can's appearance, seeing that Xia Xiaoxiao was still immersed in her own happiness, I also squeezed out a smile and said to her easily: "I'll go back first, wait for my call!"
With that, I turned around and got into the car.
The short and fat man suddenly drove the car and sped away, leaving Xia Xiaoxiao who watched the car go away.
I didn't look back, just calmly looked ahead, the car drove fast, and at almost the limit speed, I ran towards the Xu family's villa.
On the way, the tall thin man sitting in the passenger seat couldn't help but turn around, looked at me with a very interested look, and then said, "You are Wu... Xu Can, right?"
I nodded and replied, "Yes, senior!"
The tall and thin man said heartily: "Don't be a senior, it's all a family, don't be too rusty, you can just call us by our nickname, my nickname is Ground Crack, and the fat man who drives is called a landslide!"
Landslides, ground cracks?
This nickname is really domineering, but it is very in line with their momentum, and it is worthy of being a subordinate of the king of Hades.
Seeing that he was so easy to talk to, I didn't be polite, and just called them by nicknames.
For the rest of the day, I spent the rest of my time chatting, and I could see that the tall and thin man was very talkative, and seemed to be very interested and curious about me as a person. Always asking questions, and, the short and fat man landslide is much calmer, and has been concentrating on driving, but he also seems to be quite curious about me as a person, and he will interject a few words from time to time about my conversation with the ground crack.
These two masters, there is no arrogance, like Liu Longyin, approachable, I feel, the subordinates of the king of Hades are quite easy to talk, not as ferocious as the rumors on the rivers and lakes at all, all the way to chat, I am basically familiar with the two brothers of the landslide and the crack.
But. When they arrived at the villa, the landslide and the ground crack were not too casual, they returned to their seriousness, showed their due spirit, and followed me into the villa.
Liu Longyin and the injured Uncle Tie Ying both came back, they didn't go to the hospital, they invited a private doctor, this is the Xu family's exclusive doctor, however, Liu Longyin's gunshot wound was not treated by a private doctor, it is estimated that the location of the wound is inconvenient for the doctor to take the bullet, anyway, listening to the awake Uncle Tie, Liu Longyin locked himself in the room as soon as he came, and he seemed to be in a bad mood, and he didn't know if the wound had been treated. Uncle Tie was very worried about her, but he didn't dare to disturb her.
Having said so much, Uncle Tie's meaning is very obvious, that is, let me go and see her situation, too, no matter who is in front of her, Liu Longyin shows the aura of the empress, which is difficult for ordinary people to approach, and only for me, she has an easy-going side, treating me as her own son, and I am really worried about her, therefore, I didn't hesitate much, and immediately came to the door of Liu Longyin's bedroom and knocked on her door.
Knocked twice. didn't move, knocked two more times, and finally, Liu Longyin's very stern voice came from the room: "Who?"
I hurriedly replied, "Aunt Liu, it's me!"
Hearing my voice, Liu Longyin did not respond to me immediately, and it was a while before she opened the door.
Inside the door, she has changed a new look, which is diametrically opposed to the previous domineering leather style, at this moment, she has changed into a thin silk dress, the clothes are off-the-shoulder, the line of the shoulder and the slight protrusion of the collarbone make her look very attractive, it is the beauty of another posture. I didn't pay much attention to her beauty, my eyes were only fixed on her wounds, and I found that her wounds had been treated and bandaged by her.
Seeing this, I breathed a sigh of relief.
Liu Longyin didn't pay attention to my gaze, but asked me softly, "Is there something?"
I paused for two seconds, then said, "I want to talk to you!"
Liu Longyin turned around and walked back to the room, saying as he walked, "Come in!"
I immediately stepped out of my way and entered her bedroom, closing the door by the way.
Although, I lived in the Xu family villa for a while, but this is the first time I have entered Liu Longyin's bedroom, her room is very large, but the decoration is quite simple, there is no fancy dress like a girl, but there is a classical beauty, simple. Elegant at the same time.
After I entered the room, I opened my mouth and said apologetically to Liu Longyin: "Aunt Liu, I'm sorry, I bothered you!"
The voice was full of sincerity and deep apologies. I know very well how much damage this incident has caused to Liu Longyin, this injury is not as simple as a gunshot wound on the surface, but also a kind of injury to dignity, no matter what, Liu Longyin is also a powerful figure, the right-hand man of the king of Hades, and the object of people's admiration and awe.
But tonight, she was almost wiped out, but she was helpless, and all the efforts she made seemed to be just a senseless struggle. What kind of blow this is to her, and it may be such a blow to dignity that makes her mood plummet.
Even in the face of me, she did not have the softness of the past, after opening the door for me, she sat back on the stool of the dresser, her dresser, no cosmetics, only a medicine box, and bloody gauze, the most eye-catching thing to me was the bright bullet in Liu Longyin's hand.
Her gaze was always on the bullet, and I couldn't see her eyes from her side, only that she had been staring at the bullet in a daze.
After a while, she gently opened her lips and replied to me leisurely: "It's none of your business, you don't need to blame yourself!"
Her voice was very flat, I couldn't hear that she meant to blame me, but it didn't make me not blame myself, I pursed my lips and couldn't help continuing: "But Aunt Liu, you offended the Chu family because of me, finally..."
Before I could finish my sentence, Liu Longyin waved her hand and interrupted me, and then she stood up from her seat and faced me.
At this moment, I saw her eyes, but her eyes were very calm, there was no special color in them, and I couldn't see her inner world at all.
However, her actions showed that this sleeping lioness woke up, she squeezed the bullet in her hand hard, and said secretly at me: "You are wrong, just relying on the Chu family, you don't dare to deal with me so blatantly, and there is someone else who really wants to kill me!"
