Chapter 879 The chasm cannot be bridged
This is the end of the transnational kidnapping case, Xia Lan and Elsa are successfully rescued, a gang of robbers are arrested, and the Lin family mansion is full of joy. Because of her parents' dismissal of Qiu Yu, Xia Lan still had resentment in her heart and refused to call her parents, but Lin Xueshan patiently persuaded her, so she used her cousin's mobile phone to dial her mother Lin Chuqing.
Qiu Yu and the others were sitting around, all looking at Xia Lan, and after the phone was connected, Lin Chuqing's weak voice came from the receiver of the mobile phone, "Hey, Xue Shan?"
As soon as she heard her mother's movements, Xia Lan involuntarily appeared in her mind with that beautiful but haggard face, all the complaints were in vain, a crystal teardrop slipped down her eyes, and she choked up: "Mom, I'm Lan Lan." ”
"Ah, you are Lan Lan, is it really Lan Lan, where are you......" Lin Chuqing's voice trembled, and he thought that he had heard poorly, or that he was hallucinating because of a nervous breakdown, and asked incoherently.
"Mom, it's really me. Her mother's fierce reaction infected Xia Lan more and more, and tears kept pouring out, crying: "Mom, it's really me...... It's okay now, I've been rescued. ”
"That's great, Lan Lan, you're finally safe, wow......" Unable to suppress her excitement, Lin Chuqing burst into tears. When she cried like this, Xia Lan couldn't stand it, and the mother and daughter cried over the phone.
This phenomenon seems understandable to us Orientals, the mother-daughter relationship is deep, and now it is normal to cry while holding your head and crying. However, as a Westerner, Elsa is very puzzled, what's going on, didn't she successfully escape, crying unscathed, is it possible that the tear ducts of Chinese people are very rich?
Sister-in-law Osmanthus and other maids tried their best to comfort Xia Lan, and after a while, Xia Lan stopped crying, at this time, the other end of the mobile phone had been replaced by her father Xia Chenghai, man, it is much more rational to deal with problems, even if the voice was full of joy, but he did not lose his temper, and asked: "Lan Lan, tell your father, who kidnapped you and what is their purpose?"
Seeing that her cousin's face was full of tears, Lin Xueshan took out a handkerchief and wiped the tears on Xia Lan's face. After crying, Xia Lan's feelings were relieved, and her voice was much calmer. "I don't know who those kidnappers are, but they are all foreigners, and the purpose is to make the ancient painting you gave me in the first place. ”
Xia Chenghai asked in surprise: "How did they know about that ancient painting?"
"I don't know, anyway, they said that they tore me up if I couldn't get the painting. There were many people around, and it involved treasure maps, Xia Lan didn't want to talk to her father on this issue, so she hurriedly said, "Dad, let's talk about it later in the evening." ”
"Who rescued you?"
"It was Qiu Yu who saved me. ”
"It's him," Xia Chenghai asked in surprise, "Isn't that the little bodyguard I fired?"
As soon as the dismissal was mentioned, Xia Lan was full of anger again, and said like a cannon: "It's not all you, you have to fire him, otherwise with him by my side, how can those robbers succeed, it is because you can't tolerate him that the kidnappers succeed." ”
Xia Chenghai said in a deep voice: "Lan Lan, the matter has not been finally figured out, so don't think that Qiu Yu is a good person, be sure to stay away from him, maybe he has ulterior motives......"
These words were heard by the people around them, and there was a look of surprise on their faces. Qiu Yu had a wry smile on her face, no matter what she did, her parents would not accept me, maybe this is the insurmountable gap between the wealthy and the poor, I always feel that I have a plan.
Seeing the expression on Qiu Yu's face, Lin Xueshan was also very annoyed, and muttered in a low voice: "Uncle, what's going on, I can't tell the difference between a good guy and a bad guy." ”
Xia Lan was even more annoyed, and said angrily: "Okay, don't say it, I'm not a child, I can tell who is good and who is bad, so be it." ”
"Wait a minute......" Xia Chenghai said anxiously: "Your mother and I will fly to Jiangyang immediately, and then we will study what to do, you have to remember, don't get close to that kid ...... Qiu Yu again."
Xia Lan didn't like to listen to it even more, "I'll hang up first." Regardless of what her parents had to say, she hung up the phone and angrily threw the phone on the coffee table.
Lin Xueshan persuaded: "Lan Lan, don't be angry, my uncle has a misunderstanding for the time being, and it will be clarified in the future, that is, Xiao Yu, you should be more responsible." ”
Qiu Yu smiled generously, "It's okay, I'm used to it." "Yes, he was fired last time, and he has long understood the suspicion of the Xia family's parents, and he already has immunity. "Then I'll give you back this painting. ”
Seeing that the ancient painting was handed over, Xia Lan was startled, there were always irrelevant people coming to snatch it, she was really afraid of this thing, and the fear in her heart arose. Hurriedly said: "Don't, don't give me the painting, it's better for you to keep it." ”
Considering the strangeness of the matter, if the treasure map is left here by Xia Lan, it will continue to bring danger, Qiu Yu nodded, "In this case, this painting will be kept by me first, and after your parents come to Jiangyang, I will hand it over to your father and return it to Zhao." ”
Xia Lan happily agreed, the servants scattered around, there were no idle people in the living room, Qiu Yu looked at the treasure map in his hand, and said with a smile: "I have to hide this thing, the responsibility is heavy, Lan Lan, you can rest more, I will go back first, and when your parents come over, I will take the map and return it to them." ”
"Why, don't you live here?" asked Xia Lan anxiously.
"No, I'm not your bodyguard now, and your father is against me being around you, so don't let him misunderstand. In addition, this ancient painting is easy to provoke right and wrong, so it is better not to put it in the mansion. ”
Despite Qiu Yu's patient explanation, Xia Lan was still very dissatisfied, of course, mainly because of her father. Qiu Yu made up her mind, it was useless for her to object, so she could only ask the other party to come and visit her as often as possible.
Hearing that Qiu Yu was leaving, Lin Xueshan also persuaded her, but there was no result. At the same time, Elsa also said goodbye and said that she was going to leave and walk around, Xia Lan hurriedly said: "Don't go, stay at my house, I will take you out for sightseeing tomorrow and the day after tomorrow." ”
Elsa responded with a smile, "No need, your parents will come over soon, family reunion is more important than anything else, if I ask for where to play, let Qiu Yu accompany me, he should be able to help." ”
Qiu Yu smiled: "Of course, I can't ask for help with beautiful women." ”
Xia Lan glanced at him, and said angrily: "Cut, I already know what kind of person you are, you can't walk when you see a beautiful woman, okay, Elsa will be handed over to you, but I warn you, she is my good friend, and you are not allowed to plot against you." ”
"Khan, I'm such a person in your heart, wouldn't I?" Qiu Yu said with a bitter face.
Lin Xueshan smiled and said, "It seems that we all know what kind of person you are. ”
Elsa smiled disapprerovingly, "Don't worry, I'm not interested in Chinese men."
