There are temporary parking spaces around the mall, and most car owners who will not stay in the mall for too much time will choose to park their cars in the temporary parking space for the convenience of leaving.

At this point in time, it is when there are many people, and the taxi stops and grinds, moving forward slowly, unhurriedly, like the state of the driver when he is giving change.

There were several private cars stuck in the back, and they were impatiently honking at him.

Jiang Ruo memorized the license plate number in his heart, his eyes inadvertently fell on the cab, the glass of the taxi was not filmed, and the line of sight was unobstructed, she was looking at him, and the person in the car was also looking at her from afar.

The sweltering heat of dog days covered her tightly, and her clothed body quickly soaked into fine sweat in the heat.

Jiang Ruo's breathing seemed to be stagnant, and she turned around and walked towards the mall without looking back.

The mall is crowded, spacious, noisy and closed, giving her a strange sense of security.

Take the elevator to the basement floor, the entrance of the supermarket is the West Point area, and the air is filled with the aroma of cheese and milk.

Jiang Ruo pushed a shopping cart inside, Xu was suspicious of a dark ghost, and when she glanced behind her a few times, she always felt that someone was taking her eyes off her.

If it had been before, she wouldn't have thought that tracking and surveillance, the bridge in the movie, would happen to her.

But now it's not impossible.

Money, power, and lust are usually on the edge of the law, and a careless person will cross that blurred line.

What Jiang Weiming and Jiang Jin wanted, she had always been clear.

Jiang Ruo took a deep breath, stood in front of the milk shelf, and took out his mobile phone to call Lu Huaishen.

After connecting, she held her breath, not knowing how to make a sound, Lu Huaishen asked her, "Are you home?"

The low, familiar voice seemed to soothe her in the air, holding down her frightened beating heart.

She spit out the turbid breath that was holding in her heart, "Lu Huai is ......"

Lu Huaishen heard the strangeness in her voice, and couldn't help but, "What's wrong?"

"It looks like someone is stalking me. Jiang Hao stared at the various brands of milk in front of her, all kinds of English and Chinese, only 'milk' could be printed in her mind, otherwise she might not even know what she was buying.

"Where are you?"

"I'm in the supermarket. ”

Jiang Ruo was so upset that he even forgot to say the detailed address, and Lu Huaishen patiently asked, "Where is the supermarket?"

Jiang Ruo added the detailed address, the mall is in the center of the city, not far from Bolu, Lu Huaishen said: "Stay inside and wait for me to come." ”

Now for her, public is the safest place to be.

Jiang Ruo took a deep breath, calmed down, and picked two cartons of skim milk and put them in the shopping cart.

Lu Jiale said what she wanted to eat before, but Jiang Ruo didn't write down a few things, so she dialed the phone again and asked.

Lu Jiale was not very embarrassed this time, "You don't have to take care of my taste so much, just buy what you like, I'm not a picky eater." ”

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Ruo quickly bought good things, and then shuttled between the neatly arranged shelves at will, until Lu Huaishen called, she pushed the things to the cashier to check out.

Lu Huaishen waited outside.

He came in through the entrance on the other side of the cash register, lined up with her, and didn't ask anything.

Before he came, the feeling of being watched was still there. Although there are no eyes on the back of the head, when you are stared at the back, the feeling of being on the back is real.

After Lu Huaishen appeared, standing behind her, most of his body blocked her, and Jiang Ruo felt a lot more settled.

At the checkout, Lu Huaishen took out a card from his wallet and handed it to the cashier to swipe.

When he handed it back, Lu Huaishen didn't take it, Jiang Ruo glanced at him, took it for him, and was about to return it to him, but he had already walked out with two shopping bags in one hand.

Jiang Ruo trotted two steps to follow, "I can carry one." ”

She remembered that she hadn't bought much, but the largest shopping bag was full of two.

Lu Huaishen stared at her with deep eyes, stretched out his free hand to hold her, and his movements were so familiar that he seemed to have practiced many times.

Jiang Ruo instantly stiffened, and he didn't dare to look at him without squinting.

The phalanx of her big palm was slender and powerful, and the thumb rubbed the back of her hand twice, and the small piece of skin that he caressed was a little itchy and hot, and it seemed like an electric current was spreading from her wrist, gently flowing away.

Lu Huaishen's car was parked in the parking lot outside the supermarket.

In the underground space illuminated by lights, the sound of cars and human voices echoed loudly, Lu Huaishen let go of her hand, put things in the trunk, and sat in the car.

After closing the car door, Jiang Ruo dared to open his mouth to tell Lu Huaishen what had happened.

"Are you sure you've seen that person?" Lu Huaishen held the steering wheel with one hand and reversed, put his right hand on the back of her seat and looked back, and exited the parking space in one go.

"I'm not 100% sure, but it's too similar. Jiang Ruo's heart palpitated, "He behaved sneakily, he seemed to linger outside my house for a while, saying that he was in the wrong place, but after leaving the unit building, he went directly out of the door." It was the day you were on a business trip and asked me to sign the share contract with your lawyer. ”

"So, that's when I was eyeing you. ”

Lu Huaishen still had the impression that Pei Shao received news that day, and several people who had dealings with Zhang Zhi before left Yunzhou City and went to Donglin City. At that time, he had asked Pei Shao to send people to keep an eye on them, and the people who were being targeted had not been to the vicinity of Jiang Ruo's house that day, otherwise the informant would have sent news immediately.

It shows that there is someone else who is following her, and it is possible that she just stepped on the spot at that time.

Jiang Ruo looked at Lu Huaishen, and when she saw him holding his elbow thoughtfully, she became more and more worried, "Is it possible that Jiang Hao?"

Lu Huaishen said truthfully: "It's possible. Now it is basically certain that the deaths of Zhang Zhi and your parents are inseparable from Jiang Weiming's father and son. After taking root in Yunzhou City for a few years before, several people who had contact with Zhang Zhi had already arrived in Donglin City, and it was initially estimated that they were Shui Huo's subordinates. ”

Jiang Ruo didn't know if this was bad news or good news, but the feeling of being a target was really uncomfortable.

The road stopped at a red light, Lu Huaishen looked at Jiang Ruo's worried face, "You can't do anything about this, I have already sent someone to investigate, if Jiang Jin knows that he is being targeted, he will not dare to attack you easily, don't worry." ”

Jiang Ruo has never questioned Lu Huaishen's ability and means to deal with things, because of the firmness and confidence in his tone, it is not deliberately expressed, but convincing from the inside out.

Jiang Ruo also understands that this kind of self-confidence is not innate, but is refined by the accumulation of years, and only after going through the world can he not be surprised.

She looked at the backward street scene outside the car, and her heart gradually calmed down. She understands that while handing over trust little by little, she is relying on the sense of security given by Lu Huaishen. At the same time, she was afraid that this dependence would be so inflated that one day she would not be able to extricate herself.

But in the midst of all kinds of hardships, only he can walk with her.

……

Back at home, Jiang Ruo saw that Lu Jiale's mood was quite stable, and he was relieved a lot at the moment.

The things that Lu Jiale bought by name were all brought in by Lu Huaishen, and she smiled and whispered, "Thank you, big brother." ”

Lu Huai stared at her deeply, "Hmm." ”

Lu Jiale stuck out his tongue.

At this time, Lu Huaishen received a call from the old man, and the matter of the youngest son still reached his ears, and Lu Jiale also knew about Lu Huaishen's house after running away from home.

"Let's let that little one stay with you for a few days. Lu Zhongnan and Ji Lanzhi's worries are similar, for fear that there will be a gap between adults, causing Lu Huaishen not to see Lu Jiale.

Lu Huai sneered, "When did I say I wouldn't let her live here?"

The old man snorted, "Just because you didn't say it doesn't mean you don't think so in your heart." ”

Lu Huaishen was walking upstairs, suddenly paused, patted the handrail of the stairs with his hand, and sneered against his back molars, "Then you are really amazing, I can guess anything I am thinking." ”

Lu Zhongnan rolled his eyes angrily, "You are less yin and yang, I'm talking to you about business." Your uncle is like this now, and you can't do a few projects in hand, either you continue to follow up, or find a reliable one to do. ”

Lu Huai sneered: "I tried to dig it out of my hand at the beginning, and now I stuff it back into my hand, I knew it today, why bother with it in the first place?"

"What poaching?!" Lu Zhongnan blew his beard and glared and roared, "Except for the project in S City, I asked you to give it to him, and I didn't interfere in the rest! Don't think I don't know, as soon as your uncle has an accident, you will keep an eye on the side of S City, and you still leave me here to pretend to be innocent?"

Lu Huai smiled deeply, "That's okay, I'll hand it back to him now, and you let him continue to do it." ”

"Come less, the agitation method is useless to me. ”

"It's hard to admit that your son doesn't have that ability. ”

"Yes, it's your ability!" Lu Zhongnan lived to an age, and he was quite determined, and he was so angry that Lu Huai was incoherent, and he couldn't do anything with him.

The son is not angry, the grandson is in power, and he has no choice but to help his son.

Lu Jiale heard Lu Huaishen's voice talking on the phone, as if he was talking about her, and as the study door closed, he was completely isolated.

She sorted the contents of the shopping bags into the refrigerator with Jiang Ruo, and she asked in amazement, "Does the eldest brother not like me living here?"

"If he didn't want you to live here, he would have said so. ”

The relationship between relatives is weak, and even competitive, Jiang Ruo has no way to change this status quo, and he is powerless to change it, but at least Lu Huaishen did not transfer the grievances between adults to Lu Jiale.

In Lu Huaishen's eyes, Lu Jiale is also a child who doesn't understand everything.

In summer, it gets dark late, and after dinner, there is still a glimmer of light in the deep blue sky, and the stuffiness gradually fades, and the summer night has arrived.

The lights around the villa were bright, and Lu Jiale asked Jiang Ruo to go out with her to walk the dog.

Jiang Ruo thought that there was nothing to do after eating, so he simply went out for a walk with her.

Behind the villa is a spacious backyard with a grassy floor and a swimming pool in the middle, with a pale blue calm water that reflects the sparkling waves against the lighting.

Further back from the exit of the courtyard, there is a gentle slope that leads to an artificial lake in the distance, and a plank road connects the two.

It was already a long way to go, and although there were lights all the way, the light was dim, and there was almost no one around, so the two of them walked a few laps in the backyard.

Jiang Ruo listened to Lu Jiale talk about the interesting story of her traveling, and when she looked up at the second floor, she saw Lu Huaishen standing in front of the window of the study and talking on the phone, his eyes intersecting in the air.

Jiang Ruo saw his eyebrows twisting slightly and her lips moving, she looked at him fixedly for two seconds, smiled at him, and turned her gaze away.
