Text: Chapter 34

"Young master, why do you want to agree with them to burn our things, the police are here, and all the brothers are here, just with their group of students who don't have much to do, what kind of trouble can they make?"

The bodyguard is the old man of the Ji family, who used to protect Ji Boqiao, and now he follows Ji Huan wholeheartedly, so even though Ji Huan is tired at this moment, he still opened his eyes and said: "The business dealings between the Ji family firm and the Japanese foreign firm are nothing new in Shanghai, and we are the first to bear the brunt of the burning of Japanese goods this time. ”

"Then the Japanese goods in the other shops are going to be burned?"

Ji Huan shook his head and said: "I have just asked Ah Wang to inform the shops of the trading houses to remove all the Japanese goods and store them in the warehouse, and then make plans after this period, with today's incident, those radical students and citizens will no longer hold on to us, as long as there are no Japanese goods in the shop, they can't be stimulated, and they can't think of going to the warehouse to find trouble." ”

Moreover, now that the anti-Japanese sentiment is rising in the whole of Shanghai, and even in the whole of China, if he does not make such a gesture, then he Ji Muhuan is only afraid that he will really become a profiteer and traitor who is spurned by thousands of people, and it will be difficult for him to gain a foothold in this ten-mile foreign field.

He would never do anything that outweighed the losses.

The bodyguard had a look of sudden realization on his face, and couldn't help but say: "Cough, I said, it turns out that I have shallow knowledge, no wonder I always praise the young master for his ability when he is still there." ”

Ji Huan lowered his eyelids slightly, covering the faint light and shadow that flashed in his eyes.

"Young Master, should we go back to the mansion now, or should we go to the Awakening Garden?" the driver asked.

He said lightly: "Go to the Awakening Garden." ”

The driver answered and made a turn at the intersection ahead.

He stopped talking, closed his eyes again, and slowly, a light and graceful figure of a woman suddenly appeared in front of him.

The sun was shining on the outskirts of Paris, the air was filled with the fragrance of nameless wildflowers and grass, her skirt fluttered gently in the breeze, she turned her head, gave him the best smile, and called him softly, Brother Ji Huan.

He looked at her, with a smile on his lips that even he didn't know, and just stared at her, following her footsteps, not knowing how time passed.

Until the smile was gradually dispersed by a man's voice, and the warm and bright smile faded little by little, it turned out that he fell asleep in the car at some point.

"Young Master, it's here. The bodyguard called him again and again, respectfully.

But he seemed to be still greedy for the illusory illusion of warmth, and after a long while, he slowly opened his eyes.

It's still cold and windy outside the window, and this winter's Shanghai is unusually cold.

He went to call home, and Yizheng said that she stayed, so he set up a bed in his father's hospital room, and stayed in it almost all the time, never taking half a step out of the ward door without anything.

He nodded, and the heart he had been carrying was finally put down.

The next day, I handled business as usual until nine o'clock in the evening, when I took the car back to the garden, I saw the lights in my house from a distance, and I almost had a kind of chongdong wanting to go over, look at her, just a look.

However, reason is to return to the cage at the right time, at this juncture, nothing is more important than her well-being, he can't take this risk and make extraneous branches.

When he returned to the Awakening Garden, he swallowed two pills with foreign wine, and lay down on the bed, and after a while he fell into a deep sleep.

He slept so deeply that even the noise and fire outside the window at midnight did not wake him up.

He was woken up by someone, and when he opened his eyes, he only saw the sky, and there seemed to be a faint fire rushing to the sky, and this scorching red flame was also imprinted in the depths of Bai Ye's old but sharp eyes.

Bai Ye looked at him, the expression on his face was strangely distorted, and his hands were even trembling when he raised his gesture, "It's a war." ”

Occasionally, a dull and loud roar accompanied by the sound of gunfire pierced the silence of the night, and he looked out the window, his voice low and slow, "It's so fast." ”

He closed his eyes slightly, then got up suddenly, changed his clothes, and went downstairs, moving neatly without a moment's hesitation.

He ordered to prepare the car, but Bai Ye stopped him, "Where are you going?" Now it is safe here and the mansion, but there is no security outside, the two sides are already at war, and there may be an accident at any time!"

Before he could speak, the phone rang with a faint sound of gunshots, he picked it up, and Yizheng's panicked voice came from the earpiece, "Mu Huan, can you hear the gunshots there, what's wrong?"

He tried his best to keep his tone calm and gentle, and gently comforted his wife: "Don't be afraid, tell everyone to stay in the mansion and never go out, I will be back immediately." ”

He asked his wife to hand over the phone to the housekeeper, and after a few more detailed explanations, he hung up the phone and strode towards the car waiting outside the door.

Bai Ye grabbed him, "You yourself know that there will be nothing wrong with the mansion, take a step back and say, even if you have to go over, you have to wait until dawn, now you have just handed over the fire, the situation is unknown, it is dark again, it is too dangerous outside!"

Ji Huan was unmoved, "There is no one over there, and when I hear the gunshots, I have to go over and take a look." ”

Bai Ye stared at him gloomily, and slowly raised his hand to geassure, "You are not at ease Sheng Yisheng!"

Ji Huan wanted to get into the car, but at this moment, he slowly paused, stared at Bai Ye, and opened his mouth word by word, "Yes, I can't rest assured of her, so you'd better not use any crooked brains on her, otherwise...... Don't blame me for not warning you, I can do everything. ”

The car galloped all the way towards the Ji Mansion, and as he expected, the Ji Mansion at this time was indeed a mess.

When the first gunshot rang out, Yisheng woke up, she was in her father's hospital room, and she was already sleeping very unsteadily.

This night, she woke up from her dream several times, and then quietly got up without restraint, gently shook her father's hand, the slight warmth revealed in her thin fingers, so that she couldn't help but burst into tears, and she didn't dare to make a sound to disturb her father's rest, so she had to endure it herself.

When the gunshot rang out, she had actually just returned to her bed not long ago, and almost immediately, Qi Jianzhao's urgent knock sounded outside the door, "Young lady." ”

The nurse who was in the room with her was so frightened that her voice trembled, "Madam, what's wrong?"

She got up from the bed and said, "Don't be afraid, believe me, since my father is here, if something happens, it will not be safer than this room, I'll go out and have a look, you take care of my father." ”

She went to see her father again, maybe because of the drugs, and he was still asleep, maybe it would be fine, she thought to herself.

In order to take care of her father, she was lying in her clothes, so she took care of herself after a while, opened the door in a few steps, closed the door again, and walked a few steps to Qi Jianzhao and asked, "What's wrong?"

Qi Jianzhao said: "It's like the sound of a battle, Jianzhao has already sent someone to investigate, the young lady doesn't have to be afraid, but please be ready to break through with your subordinates at any time." ”

She nodded, and then saw that in addition to the post set up outside the mansion, almost all the other guards came to her surroundings, and there were panicked voices of men and women in the living room downstairs, as well as the crying of children, and occasionally mixed with the voice of the housekeeper of the Ji Mansion, but what was said was not true.

There was another sound of footsteps coming from the stairs, and the sister-in-law ran to her side with her young nephew in a few steps, "Xiao Sheng, you have to let your guards protect our mother and son, your eldest brother's life and death are uncertain now, Xiao Lang is the blood and blood of the Sheng family!"

Xiao Lang may have been frightened, or maybe he was hugged too tightly by his mother, and he couldn't help crying, Yisheng comforted their mother and son while taking them downstairs to avoid them disturbing his father.

In the living room, the brothers and sisters-in-law woke up like a dream when they saw her, and they all surrounded her in a flash, although there were also many bodyguards in the Ji Mansion, but at this time, after all, it was the soldiers around Yisheng who could give them a sense of security.

Yizheng was already so frightened that the six souls would only shed tears, or the housekeeper of the Ji Mansion walked to Yisheng's side, and said to her and to everyone in the house: "Mrs. Bo, the young master called just now, so that everyone doesn't have to panic, there is absolutely no danger in the Ji Mansion, so everyone must not go out, the young master is rushing to the mansion, and he will be there soon." ”

Yisheng nodded, she had never experienced such a scene, and when she thought of the fall of the three northeastern provinces not long ago, she couldn't help but feel uneasy and scared in her heart.

However, at this moment, a room full of people of all ages seemed to regard her as the backbone, and she had to be strong, took several deep breaths to barely calm down, and opened her mouth to comfort everyone: "Don't be afraid, even if there is a real battle, we are here in the concession area, nothing will happen, and the sound of guns and cannons is also far away, so don't mess up yourself." Jianzhao has already sent someone to investigate, let's wait and see how the situation changes before we deal with it......"

Before she finished her words, she heard a rush of footsteps outside the door, she subconsciously raised her eyes, but at that moment she choked her voice and couldn't say a word.

Her husband came to her from the night, his tall figure as firm and steady as a mountain.

She looked at him, the anxiety and fear caused by her father, and the uneasiness and confusion caused by the current situation were all intertwined, and her heart was complicated, but there was a strange peace of mind slowly overflowing from her heart.

She felt that her face was a little wet, and she was stunned for a moment before she came to her senses, and she hurriedly lowered her head and was about to raise her hand to wipe it.

However, faster, his slightly rough fingers had slowly wiped away the tears on her face, and he took her into his arms, his voice was slightly tight, but with some kind of calming power, "Don't be afraid, I'm here." ”

His coat still had the chill of a winter night, but for no reason, she felt that her heart was calm and warm, she nodded slowly, even though she was attached, but after all, there were too many people around her at the moment, so she gently straightened up from his embrace.

She raised her eyes to look at him, but before she saw the long figure behind him, in the shadows outside the door, quietly facing the direction of the room full of light and embracing them, I don't know how long she had been standing.

The night was too thick, and his expression couldn't really be seen.
