Chapter 119: Revealing the Landscape
Yan Jiujiu woke up.
But her mind was full of the dramatic day in Jingfu five days ago, and what hovered in front of her was not her appearance when Zhou's mother and Chu Qing came to her with a bunch of maids, nor was it the confrontation between Yu Weiwei and her unremarkable.
It was the man who wanted her name.
She didn't understand.
The Gu family wanted her life just to stuff a deadly hook in the throat of the fat fish of the Jing family, regardless of whether the fly was or not, the fish of the Jing family was destined to be hooked.
Jing Shilang really fulfilled the wish of the Gu family.
But who killed the deer in the end, it is still its words.
Her mind turned to the man she had met again.
Who is he, and why did he want to die to her?
"Miss, if you wake up, just pull down the bell, and Mother Chen and I can come up with washing utensils and breakfast, and you can lie down obediently and recuperate!"
Chu Qing held the silver basin, gently opened the door with one foot, probed in, and watched Yan Jiujiu only cover his stomach and show his slender white thighs coming out, and couldn't help but blame him distressedly.
She was still lying on the bed limply, not moving.
Jing Shilang gave her a vacation again, it was nothing more than some strange reasons, but she was just muddy after falling into a puddle, he was good, saying that she was congenitally deficient and had a weak physique, but this kind of small illness and pain in the eyes of ordinary people was hovering on the edge of life and death for her.
The tip of his nose wafted through the smell of fried crisp.
She sniffed softly, turned over and sat up, rubbed her sleepy eyes, and took the hot towel handed over by Chu Qing.
After rubbing her face, she tiptoed out of bed, her moist fingertips exuding a healthy luster, where did she look like a little sick?
She took a fried golden fritter, took another glass of bean juice, nestled on the sofa in front of the window and began to eat in small bites.
She was indeed a little hungry.
"Mademoiselle! How many times have you said it! You always like to go to bed barefoot, but fortunately it was this Osto wool carpet that was laid out.... As the saying goes, all diseases start from the feet, your body is weak, this high-quality medicinal materials have to be used a little bit of conditioning, although these years are not all but at least the slightest rise, this saying is always more bad than that good thing, you finally accumulate a little bit of vitality, if you are a little careless because of this slightly cooler...... That's a pipe loss!"
Chu Qing was packing up her things while turning back from time to time to be serious.
"Yes, yes, yes..."Yan Jiujiu said vaguely, "You really have a lot of ink in your stomach, where did you get so many proverbs....."
"I read it in a book!"
"Which book? It can't be made up by you again, right?" Yan Jiujiu smiled and threw the last bit of fritter into his mouth.
"Miss......"
Yan Jiujiu, she wiped her hands and sat on the sofa to look at the scenery outside the window.
Chu Qing picked up the mess after a while, and then went out lightly.
In the huge living room, there are only 991 people left.
She didn't say a word about yesterday's incident, she was her mother's flesh and blood, looking at her tearful eyes and distressed eyes, she still resisted the urge to blurt out, and only told half of the story of Qian Wei's feet.
Later, a group of people surrounded her and went to the main hall, Jing Shilang and her aunt had been sitting and waiting for a long time, when they saw her embarrassed appearance, the aunt hurriedly got up and dismissed all the men, including Jing Shilang, and severely punished a group of maids and women, even Zhou's mother was taught a lesson.
But it's no wonder they don't arrange for themselves to wash themselves.
But she couldn't, she was afraid that once she stepped into that comfortable environment, she would not be able to resist her mother's cold and warmth, she was afraid that she would tear up her eyes and tell her mother everything, about her brother, about her assassination in Jingfu.
Yan Jiujiu changed Yanyan's clothes.
She still remembered the way Jing Shilang looked at her when she came out of the inner room.
Like the plum that comes from the snow, the cold eyes with a smile are like beeswax-colored flowers, the light yellow sipping snow, it is transparent, it is clear, it is cold, and it is a faint fragrance and unforgettable spirit.
She was stunned for a while, and then the maid hugged her cloak, and the sudden warmth pulled her back to reality.
Yan Jiujiu Province has Jing Shilang's early wisdom, and he will inevitably have some suspicions.
It's just that when Jing Shilang was questioning step by step, she looked at the Xuande plaque hanging high in the main hall of the Jing family, and she still looked at Jing Shilang's aggressive eyes without changing her face and heartbeat, and denied it word by word.
She knew that this was his trick, giving people high pressure, even if she didn't say something, if she couldn't hold back in her heart, she would definitely be exposed.
But she held on, but that didn't mean she persuaded Jing Shilang.
She was absolutely confident that he would find ways to prove her conjecture in every way.
This game is not over yet, the real culprit and mastermind have not yet been revealed, she can't just leave Los Angeles, this is the place where she was born and raised.
Los Angeles is her home.
"Miss! Adin is here to report!"
Chu Qing went upstairs and pushed open Yan Jiujiu's door.
I saw a smiling little face.
"But Wanping's Miss Fu has arrived?"
Chu Qing nodded, shook her head again, and hurriedly closed the door and approached: "Ah Ding has gone out of the city to greet you according to your instructions, but after walking along the road for the past three days, I met the young lady of the Fucha clan, and the young lady was still on guard when she saw your handwritten letter, and then saw that you wrote half of the letter she wrote and your jade pendant, and immediately responded to Ah Ding, at this time there is still about a day away, and Ah Ding asked the hexagon around him to come back quickly and report to you a good letter." ”
Yan Jiujiu's ears were slightly constricted, and she was determined.
She divided Miss Fu's letter into two, kept one for herself, and gave the other to Adin with her Baifu cloud pattern bat style hibiscus jade pendant, and wrote her own handwritten letter.
As she expected, this Miss Fu is a person with a clear heart, if she just sent a letter, it would be difficult for Ah Ding to hand over to her.
This jade pendant was awarded by the emperor to the Fucha clan with the yellow flag, and later passed down to Miss Fu's father, and then transferred it to her father with a token of righteousness.
Nothing could be more convincing than this thing.
She nodded and called Chuqing to make flower tea to eat.
Finally one thing complied with her wishes, but the murderous eyes of the man in black appeared in front of her eyes again.
Yan Jiujiu opened his eyes suddenly, and a pair of apricot eyes were full of tiredness and distress.
Let's not mention that the origin of this man in black is nowhere to be found, even the French Concession is a bottomless pit, and there is no one in Los Angeles who can be used.
Now that the Gu family has intervened again, the person she wanted to leave behind and forget must have a connection with him.
What should come will always come....
On the second day, it rained lightly, and the water poured out along the eaves of the green tiles, like kung fu tea poured in a teahouse, and the straight spout trickled out.
Yan Jiujiu reached out to catch the non-offensive liquid, and let his ever-changing body pass through his fingers.
Although this kind of rain is not a problem, but thousands of miles away from the city, the mountain road is rugged, the road is steep, and it is raining, just in case, with Adin's caution, there will be many eyes to slow down the speed, if you are in a hurry, it is inevitable that those who have bad intentions will take advantage of people's impatience psychology to stir up chaos.
It's all about being on the safe side.
No one is missing.
She looked up again at the blue sky, and the thin and silent raindrops fell from the gloomy gray clouds.
This Los Angeles, isn't it in this treacherous situation?
She couldn't help but feel a hint of sarcasm.
She came back just to find her mother and brother.....
But everything has long been like people.
That night, her proud brother gave her a fatal blow, and all her faith, all her trust, collapsed in an instant.
Yan Jiujiu can completely withdraw.
But she didn't know why she was caught up in this complicated power struggle.
She knows.
She can't let it go....
She wants to protect her mother, and she wants to prove to the man who has betrayed her relatives that everything he has is wrong!
The rain is not too big or too small.
The people entrusted by the Fucha clan estimated that they would arrive in Los Angeles with a delay of a day or two.
Yan Jiujiu called Chu Qing, and the master and servant went out with a pure black umbrella.
She still went to Jingfu.
In the past few days, she has been thinking about it again and again, and now she can only achieve her goal by borrowing troops from Jing Shilang.
But when she had to deal with Jing Shilang, she suddenly thought that she was in the main hall that day, but she insisted that nothing had happened.
Now she ran back in a gray way and beat herself up, and then alienated the distance between her and Jing Shilang.
But isn't there a chasm between him and her?
Would he think she was calculating him?
Yan Jiujiu thought silently.
The sound of treading water under your feet was drowned out by the sound of rustling rain.
Squeak.
The slender fingers like bamboo knots were lightly dyed, and the vigorous handwriting gave birth to a touch of obscurity.
The word is scrapped.
The man who was writing looked up suddenly.
"Why is my cousin here?" said that, with a smile on his face, he began to reprimand Chu Qing beside Yan Jiujiu, "How to tell you? Take care of your young lady, if your young lady has three long and two short..."
"Yes, yes, yes.... I don't have to live anymore!" Chu Qing put away the umbrella and leaned outside the door, turned around and came in to learn in a good way, "I said Miss, young master.... In the end, Chu Qing only took a monthly sum of money to eat, but she had to be called back and forth by the two of you.... Young Master Table!"
As she spoke, she stretched out her hand and shook it towards Jing Shilang.
"Where's your monthly money?"
Jing Shilang brushed his sleeves, pointed at Chu Qing and said with a smile: "You yellow-haired girl, it is your duty to take care of your young lady, and now your wishful thinking has hit your young master." ”
The rhetoric is reproachful, but it is a playful tone.
That Chu Qing is also an active person, so naturally this is a joke that only his own family can afford, and the young master will naturally not care about her if he is not informal.
It's just that Chu Qing's words to adjust the atmosphere have no effect on Yan Jiujiu at all.
She smiled and retreated to the door.
Jing Shilang still had a shallow smile in his eyes, he put aside the pen and paper in his hand, got up and walked to the bamboo recliner in front of the window, the left and right bamboo wheels were very ingenious, the man in Tsing Yi was lying on it, the bamboo chair shook gently, and the fine raindrops outside the window hit the eaves like a random drum beat.
He didn't seem to see Yan Jiujiu.
Yan Jiujiu was not in a good mood, where did she still laugh when she saw the light and breezy scene?
She gritted her teeth.
Jing Shilang is waiting for her to speak!
The rain outside the window had no intention of stopping, like crystal beads with broken threads, falling in a torrent.
Yan Jiujiu sighed in his heart, and his tense expression relaxed for a moment.
"Cousin, can you help me?"
The man in the chaise longue seemed to be asleep.
"Cousin....."
Yan Jiujiu slapped the table, "Watch .....!"
The man with his eyes closed said slowly: "It's rare to hear you call me cousin once." ”
Where is this sleeping? It's clearly taking advantage of her!
Yan Jiujiu's eyes widened, turned around and stopped looking at him, and poured the tea on the round table to quench his thirst.
"Cousin is smart, I don't know how else I can help. If my cousin hadn't come to taunt me!"
These words are clearly wearing flower costumes and singing a big play!
But where did she dare to walk away?
"Am I wrong? I shouldn't have lied to you last time, so that you have been worried in vain for the past few days..." I really don't want them to worry about me anymore, the previous French Concession was too far-fetched to cover up, I'm afraid that my mother will inevitably not follow the vine if she knows about it this time, and now..."
"That's it!" the lying man opened his eyes.
The misty eyes looked a little tired, only flickered away, and then turned into blazing eyes.
"Regardless of whether you want it or not, just guard against me. It's just my aunt, I believe you. ”
“......”
Yan Jiujiu naturally knew that Jing Shilang would imagine all kinds of possibilities, but she didn't expect him to be so precise, just like.... It's like slowly peeling off her clothes one by one, studying every inch of her texture in detail...
Her scalp tingled.
"Thank you. ”
Yan Jiujiu said dryly.
Jing Shilang no longer mentioned this stubble, which can be regarded as tacit.
"Have you ever wondered where the killer came from?"
How could she not want to? But where did she have the Jing family's hidden piles all over the ground?
"If I knew, where would I come to you?" she glanced at Jing Shilang.
But he put it in the middle.
"Don't you ever suspect being too eloquent? Don't you think it's too much of a coincidence when everything is put together?"
Jing Shilang sat up slowly, his eyes like water.
Yan Jiujiu looked at his eyes that were like three thousand feet of water, and couldn't help but stagnate.
"Yu Weiwei, she asked me out..... She asked me out...."
Of course, she asked me out because of you!
But this reason is embarrassing.
"No matter what the reason, you should know that some things are changed without changing the medicine, she will do whatever she wants to use to cover up in order to achieve her goal, and she is obviously trying to cover it up!"
Make matters worse by attempting a coverup......
Right!
"You're right!" Yan Jiujiu's eyes sank, "She just took advantage of the fact that I value this matter so much to deceive me!"
I value this thing so much....
Did she value him very much? Yan Jiujiu was stunned, how could she involuntarily say such a thing?
"I don't know what makes my cousin so important..."
"No... Nothing...."She couldn't help but feel weak. (To be continued.) )
