Chapter 23: Do You Like Her?
"What's wrong!" Wu Lei looked at Shen Ci's abnormal reaction and asked suspiciously.
"No, nothing. Shen Ci hurriedly shook his head, but his face turned red.
Wu Lei looked down and saw that the cake was clearly in the shape of a peach heart, and it was dotted with red rose cream petals. There is also a word "LOVE" written in the middle.
It is already obvious that only people who love each other will give such a birthday cake.
"Sister, this is ......" Wu Lei suddenly remembered that the clerk asked him who the cake was given to, and his explanation made them mistakenly think that it was given to a couple.
He didn't know how to explain, Shen Ci raised his hand to interrupt him, and his face was also a little embarrassed: "Xiao Lei...... What do you mean, sister understands, but ......"
Although Shen Ci has more affection for Wu Lei, it has surpassed the feelings of ordinary sisters and brothers. But she knew very well in her heart that she was Wu Lei's sister-in-law, and she was older than him, so she shouldn't think about it because of her feelings.
Wu Lei was also embarrassed, and really wanted to celebrate her birthday, but he didn't expect to make such a big fuss. After that, I don't know how to face her.
Just as he opened his mouth and was about to speak, Shen Ci sighed: "I know, you are still young, and your girlfriend is not around, it is inevitable that you will ......"
As she spoke, her face became redder and redder, and she couldn't go on. Suddenly, she stood up, propped up the table with her hands, stood on tiptoe and kissed Wu Lei on the cheek.
"Xiao Lei, don't get me wrong. I'm just thankful that you can celebrate my birthday today!" Shen Ci couldn't suppress the surging in his heart, and explained like a thief.
Wu Lei looked at Shen Ci's face in the dim light. If it weren't for the fact that she was his nominal sister-in-law, Shen Ci would actually be the one he liked in his heart. Gentle and virtuous, with an indifferent personality.
It's just that......
Under the stimulation of alcohol, Wu Lei was a little confused, and Shen Ci's face under his sight was also extremely delicate and lovely.
With that in mind, he took a step forward.
"Xiao Lei, what are you going to do!" Shen Ci was startled and instinctively took a step back.
She was nervous and apprehensive, expectant and scared.
Just then, the door creaked, and the sound of the key turning the keyhole was heard.
Wu Lei inexplicably woke up halfway from drinking, and Shen Ci breathed a long sigh of relief. Hurriedly greeted him.
"Dad, you're back. Shen Ci reached out to pick up the bag in Shen Qingshan's hand.
"Uncle Shen. Wu Lei also got up and shouted politely.
Shen Qingshan nodded while changing his shoes: "Xiao Lei, you're here." ”
"Well, I'm here to celebrate my sister's birthday today. Wu Lei scratched his head and said.
Shen Qingshan snorted and looked at the cake on the table, his eyes couldn't help but show a hint of surprise.
Obviously, he also realized that such a cake was too ambiguous.
"Well, Dad, you haven't eaten yet. I'll bring you food. Shen Ci was taken aback, and quickly opened the topic.
This matter is too sensitive at this time.
……
After a few people finished eating, Wu Lei got up and was about to say goodbye, when Shen Qingshan suddenly called out to him: "Xiao Lei, I'll send you, right?"
Wu Lei turned his head and hesitated, originally wanting to refuse, but seeing the whiteness between Uncle Shen's temples, he nodded and agreed.
"Xiao Lei, I have something to ask you, you have to tell me truthfully!"
The two of them walked out of the unit building, and Shen Qingshan suddenly asked with a serious face.
"Uncle Shen can just say what he has to say. Wu Lei was stunned for a moment, and quickly replied.
"What do you think of my daughter, Shen Ci?" asked Shen Qingshan.
Wu Lei didn't know why he asked, he vaguely guessed something, and replied truthfully: "Sister, everything is fine." Kind and gentle, and good-tempered. ”
He didn't say the second half. In front of Uncle Shen, it doesn't seem so appropriate to say that Shen Ci has an outstanding appearance.
"Do you like her?"
Shen Qingshan took a deep breath, although it was inappropriate to say this question, but he was stuck in his throat, and he didn't vomit unpleasantly.
When he heard this, Shen Qingshan really asked this question, he was shocked, and just wanted to explain to him the origin of the cake, Shen Qingshan raised his hand and said: "Xiao Lei, you don't need to say it, no matter what your answer is, I hope that in the future, you can treat your sister well." ”
"This hospitalization, the doctor found out some of my diseases, I don't have much time, I'm afraid it's too late to say, so I ......"
Speaking of this, Shen Qingshan choked up a little. In this family, Shen Ci has supported too much, and he has always felt guilty.
Hearing his words, Wu Lei's heart tightened, and he couldn't help but say, his hand rested on Shen Qingshan's pulse, and a faint true qi followed the pulse all the way up like a path.
I saw that his pulse was strong and weak, and finally in the place of his heart, that true qi suddenly bounced back, as if he had hit a wall.
"Uncle Shen, did the doctor say that you had a heart attack?" Wu Lei made his own judgment.
"That's right, how do you know!" Shen Qingshan was already surprised, and it was even more unexpected to see Wu Lei ask like this. He hadn't told anyone about it.
This kind of disease can't be taken down without hundreds of thousands, and even if the money is spent, it may not have an effect. That's why I've been hiding it.
Now that he knew the crux of the problem, Wu Lei suddenly had an idea and said, "Uncle Shen, don't worry, I can cure your illness!"
"Xiao Lei, this, how is this possible? You're not joking with me, are you?" Shen Qingshan was overjoyed at first, and then worried.
He knew in his heart that Wu Lei was not studying medicine and had been in prison for several years. Although his heart is sincere, this kind of thing is not just talking.
However, looking at his expression, it didn't look like a joke.
Wu Lei smiled faintly and was about to speak, when his eyes suddenly tightened!
I heard only the faint sound of footsteps coming from the rooftop. Shen Qingshan couldn't hear it, but he had clear ears and eyes, so he naturally heard the movement clearly.
It's so late, who's still doing something on the roof?
Wu Lei was surprised, and couldn't help but look up, only to see a few figures flashing in front of him.
"Not good!"
Wu Lei suddenly screamed.
No matter who these people are, judging by their athletic appearance, they will never be ordinary thieves.
And the house where the Shen family lives, the only permanent residents are Shen Ci and that Qin Xiangyun. Whoever goes is not a good thing.
"What's going on?" Shen Qingshan followed his line of sight and saw nothing.
As soon as his words fell, he heard a loud "bang" of a glass bottle bursting in the room!
This sound is particularly piercing in the silence of the night!
Shen Qingshan's heart was horrified, and he suddenly felt a flower in front of him, and saw Wu Lei like the wind, so he rushed into the house......
"Who are you?"
In the room, Shen Ci was cleaning up, and suddenly saw a few people breaking in for no reason, and he was suddenly startled, and his eyes were full of horror.
I saw that they were each holding sharp daggers in their hands, and the cold light was shining, which was daunting.
"What is it? Hmph, our boss wants to see you, so come with us!"
As he spoke, one of them was about to come up and pull Shen Ci's hand roughly.
"Who is your boss?" I don't know!" Shen Ci struggled to break free.
"It doesn't matter if you don't know our boss, the boss knows you!" One of the leaders laughed and was about to come up again to pull people.
"Let go of me, you let go of me!" Shen Ci called out loudly.
"Chick, I advise you not to make useless struggles. Since we are here, we will not go home empty-handed!"
The man in the lead sneered, and a beam of light was projected, and there was a three-inch-long scar on his face.
This scar is the best proof that he has been born and died all the way over the years.
Shen Ci saw this person's face clearly, and his heart chuckled. Isn't this a famous thug in Linjiang, with a scarface and a proud face?
With such a big background, how could this person deign to catch his little girl?
Xiong Ao sneered, and waved his hand at his subordinates: "Take her away." ”
With that, a smile appeared in his heart. Didn't it say that Shen Ci's family had a difficult person to deal with, and it was so easy to catch her?
Just as he was thinking this, the person who was about to go out suddenly stopped. Xiong Ao looked up and saw a person standing firmly at the door.
"What did you just say, that you won't go home empty-handed?"
Wu Lei looked at their group of uninvited guests, and a chuckle rose on the corner of his mouth.
A few of his men were stunned, looked back, and saw Xiong Ao nodding at them, without saying a word, he waved a dagger with cold light, and stabbed Wu Lei in the chest!
The moves are extremely fast and go straight to the point. It's really not an ordinary second-rate gangster.
"Wu Lei, be careful! they are not easy to deal with!" Shen Ci shouted in a lost voice.
I used to work in a bar, so I naturally heard a lot of news. Xiong Ao's gang of people, in Linjiang, were specially entrusted to do some robberies and robberies.
Because of his ruthlessness and super combat power, in just a few years, his power has expanded rapidly.
"Stinky girl, what so much nonsense!" Xiong Ao said impatiently, with a "snap", a slap on Shen Ci's face!
A crisp slap sounded, and Wu Lei was suddenly angry!
This was the first time he had seen Shen Ci being beaten under his nose, and it was such an insulting action.
He swore that he would protect Shen Ci well and not let her be bullied again!
These people really hit the muzzle of the gun.
"You kid is Wu Lei, how about it, don't you accept it?" Xiong Ao sneered.
I saw Wu Lei clenching his fists and shouting violently, and several men with knives suddenly felt their hearts and gallbladders bursting, and their hearts jumped wildly.
"Why are you stupid, go on!" Xiong Ao looked at this scene, surprised in his heart, and said impatiently.
A few people woke up like a dream, and before they could react, Wu Lei took the lead in making a move, only to see him hold one with one hand, and with force in his hand, those people instantly took off, and he threw it violently, smashed it against the wall in the corridor outside, and fainted on the spot!
"What a strong arm!"
Xiong Ao watched Wu Lei with some trepidation, and then realized why the client repeatedly told this person to be careful and careful.
"Release me!"
Wu Lei clapped his hands, stepped forward, and pointed at Xiong Aodao.
