Next.

"Honey, I'm going to work. ”

After eating breakfast, Tang Xiao dressed neatly and stood at the door and said to Cheng Lie.

Cheng Lie was sitting by the window browsing the news on his iPad, when he raised his head and smiled at her when he heard this: "Go, come back early." ”

Tang Xiao stood at the door and did not leave immediately.

"Don't you feel like you've forgotten something, my dear?"

"What's the matter?"

Cheng Lie put down the iPad, a little puzzled.

Tang Xiao pouted and said, "Think about it." ”

Cheng Lie raised his eyebrows: "Forgot to wash the dishes?"

"Stupid, aren't the dishes and chopsticks already in the dishwasher?"

"So what's the matter? I can't think of it. ”

Tang Xiao died in a hurry.

Reaching out and tapping his cheek, "Here." ”

"Huh?"

"Can't you see that?Hey, you did it on purpose!"

Tang Xiao pretended to be angry.

Cheng Lie hooked his lips and smiled evilly: "If you want to kiss, just say it." ”

Tang smiled: "...... Hey!!"

A man in a black shirt and trousers of the same color walked towards her in the morning light.

Tang Xiao looked at it in a daze, only to feel that the man in front of him was really handsome.

Sure enough, no matter how long she has been married, she is her husband's loyal fan + fan sister......

"Little fool. ”

Cheng Lie walked up to Tang Xiao, picked her chin, and lowered his head to imprint a kiss on her pink lips.

Tang Xiao smiled with satisfaction, hooked Cheng Lie's neck, and tiptoed to kiss Cheng Lie's left and right cheeks.

Looking at the shallow lipstick mark on the man's handsome face, Tang Xiao smiled like a little fox and slipped away from Cheng Lie's arms.

"Bye-bye~~ I'm leaving. ”

After Tang Xiao left, the smile on Cheng Lie's face gradually disappeared from the corner of his mouth.

He looked at the message on his phone that he walked to five minutes ago: Hi, Liezi, long time no see, is it convenient to come to the Yunjin Hotel where I live to catch up?

The sender is Pete.

This person, who was once regarded as a brother by him, is now full of suspicions.

According to the investigation results sent by Li Su in the past two days, Pete has a great connection with the international human trafficking organization behind Sun Luo.

This criminal organization, most likely, is also related to the drug trafficking organization that previously killed his comrades.

"Okay, I'll be there in an hour. ”

Cheng Yeol replied.

"Room 1008 is waiting for you. ”

Pete's message was not long in coming.

Cheng Lie looked at his phone with a cold gaze and no expression on his handsome face.

An hour later.

The entrance of room 1008 of Yunjin Hotel.

Cheng Yeol rang the doorbell.

The door to the room was quickly opened.

Dressed in white short-sleeved and blue jeans, with slippers on his feet, the midday sun shining on his face, the blonde man looked so bright, it would not be an exaggeration to say that he was a college graduate who had just left school.

"Hi bro, long time no see!"

Pete came up with a big hug.

Cheng Lie's eyes widened slightly, but he still hugged Pete cooperatively, reaching out and patting him on the back.

"Long time no see. ”

The two came to the bar and sat down, and Pete opened a bottle of red wine and poured it for Cheng Lie.

"Cheers, brother. ”

Cheng Lie smiled and clinked glasses with Pete, and the two seemed to be good brothers without any suspicions.

"What's the matter with me?"

After a glass of wine, Cheng Lie asked straight to the point.

Pete smiled, a tangle in his blue eyes.

"What's wrong? ”

Cheng Lie put down the goblet in his hand and looked at him patiently.

Pete finally let out a heavy sigh.

"Lie, cute and cute...... You're going to break up with me. ”

Although he had known about this for a long time, Cheng Lie still pretended to be surprised and raised his eyebrows: "Is there such a thing?" ”

"Don't you know?"

Pete's blue eyes widened.

"She's also older, and she doesn't like to tell me anything on her mind. I, the eldest brother, can't interfere with her thoughts. ”

Cheng Lie patted Pete on the shoulder: "I'm sorry, Pete, I can't help with emotional matters." ”

Pete couldn't believe that Cheng Lie wasn't on his side, and his eyebrows were tightly wrung together.

He was silent for a long time, and when he spoke again, his tone suppressed pain, and his voice was very bitter: "Is there really no chance to redeem it?"

Cheng Lie shook his head regretfully.

Pete looked down and looked down at the liquor in his glass.

Cheng Lie sat quietly aside.

After a while, Pete suddenly raised his head and looked at Cheng Lie and smiled slowly.

"Lie, can you tell me what happened? I remember that you were willing to entrust Meng Meng to me in the past. ”

"I'm sorry, Pete. ”

“…… Don't you think I'm your brother anymore?"

Pete asked.

Cheng Lie's expression was calm: "What about you? Pete." ”

“……”

Pete's fingers rubbed against the smooth goblet.

His nails grazed the walls of the cup, and his eyes flickered.

He thought that Cheng Lie must have already known.

Cheng Meng has always relied on her eldest brother, how could she not tell Cheng Lie about it?

Although he implanted a chip in Cheng Meng's body and could monitor it in real time, he didn't have time to listen to who she was with and what the other party said.

It must have been when he didn't care about listening to her, she told Cheng Yeol everything.

Also, the one surnamed Sun was arrested.

His subordinates told him that Cheng Lie had gone to the police station to personally interrogate the man surnamed Sun.

If Cheng Lie is smart enough, he will definitely be able to ask the person surnamed Sun for the information he wants to know.

Cheng Lie is a thoughtful person, he may ...... I've been checking myself for a long time.

Thinking of this, a hint of cruelty crossed his lowered blue eyes.

Sun Luo can't stay.

Cheng Lie, Cheng Meng, and his wife can't stay.

Although I am reluctant to become cute, I ......

He had to do it.

Despite this thought, Pete looked up with a sincere and sincere smile on his face.

"Of course, Lie, you're my brother for life—as long as you will. ”

Hearing this, Cheng Lie smiled and said nothing, and raised his red wine glass towards Pete.

"Bang-"

The two glasses clashed together with a crisp sound.

However, when the glass of wine was drunk, Cheng Yeol said to Pete: "Pete, I wish you had never changed. ”

Pete chuckled softly.

"Lie, I have never changed with you. ”

"It seems that I don't know the real Pete. ”

Cheng Lie snorted slightly.

Pete laughed: "Oh, my good brother, people always say you're a moving iceberg and don't smile, but it's just me who understands how damn humorous you are." ”

Cheng Lie's eyes were like torches, staring at Pete, there was still a smile on his handsome face, but there were some things that the two of them tacitly understood.

This should be the last time they will sit together and drink.

Pete thought with regret that Cheng Lie was really a good wine companion.

In the past, when Cheng Lie was on a mission abroad, they often drank together.

At that time, it was such a joy.

At that time, his identity was just a mercenary.

How many years ago was that?

At that time, Cheng Lie was far younger and simpler than now.

Unconsciously, the man in front of him has become unfathomable.

Pete poured a full bottle of wine for Cheng Lie again.

He was the first to raise his glass: "My brother, if one day - you and I must kill each other, I hope that you will not show mercy to my men. ”

At this moment, his eyes were full of reluctance to Cheng Lie.

After all, how much he used to admire him.

It's a pity that they have never been the same kind of people.

Or rather, not long after they separated, he had already embarked on another path-

A road destined to one day be opposite to Cheng Lie's soldiers.

"Of course. ”

Cheng Lie smiled: "This is respect for the opponent." ”

"Haha......"

Pete laughed again.

"Oh, Ryol, you, this is the cutest man I've ever met. ”

Cheng Lie didn't answer, raised his head and drank the red wine in the cup.

He got up and said to Pete, "It's time for me to go." ”

Pete was stunned: "Won't you stay a little longer?"

Cheng Lie asked, "Is this necessary?"

"Oh......"

Pete sighed and shook his head sharply.

"Lie, don't you really have any reluctance to me. ”

"Nope. ”

Cheng Yeol replied honestly.

"Ha ......"

Pete held his forehead and smiled helplessly.

"Okay, let's go. ”

Cheng Lie was about to turn around, and Pete suddenly said: "Lie, no matter what, I really thank you for agreeing that I was with Meng Meng." You don't know...... How much I liked her, and being in love with her, was something I had fantasized about for many years. ”

Cheng Lie stood in place, and after hearing this, he looked at Pete expressionlessly: "Let it go, otherwise, I won't let you go." ”

"Huh?"

Pete smirked, "Are you threatening me? ”

Cheng Lie stared at him with a cold look in his eyes: "Yes." ”

Pete jumped down from the barstool, leaned lazily on the bar, and said with a smile: "Lie, I love Mengmeng, I want to marry her, I want to spend my life with her—in the words of an old Chinese people, I want to 'hold the hand of the son, grow old with the son', and be inseparable from her white head." ”

Cheng Lie pursed his lips and didn't say a word, his dark eyes were as if they had been quenched with ice.

Pete was worried that he would suddenly pull out and shoot himself, he believed that Cheng Lie would draw the gun faster than himself, but he still wanted to say a few more words to stimulate the man in front of him.

After so many years, he rarely saw Lie angry.

I have to say that when Lie is angry, he is unusually sexy.

Pete smiled cynically and continued, "Brother, do you know? I've prepared a wedding room with Moe Meng in a foreign country - it's an old, white castle with a garden full of roses, and Moe's favorite elk, oh...... It's really amazing, Meng Meng will definitely like it, I think, I will definitely take Meng Meng there in the future......"

"You and Meng Meng are over. ”

Cheng Lie reminded calmly.

The smile on Pete's face froze, but soon, he said excitedly, "No, I'll go and get her back—Lie, there's no way I'll let Meng Meng leave me, I love her, oh, this woman is so damn sweet...... Just thinking about it, I'm—"

His voice was forced to get stuck in his throat as Cheng Yeol shot at a speed that caught him off guard, instantly grabbing his neckline.
