The umbrella on the shoe cabinet at the door of the apartment looked a little familiar, but Bian Xuedao didn't think much about it, and he didn't think about the umbrella Xu Shangxiu gave him.

There are more umbrellas with similar patterns in the world, this is the United States, he is in San Francisco at the moment, and he is separated by an umbrella in his cupboard.

Seeing the shoes and umbrellas at the door, Bian Xuedao was very surprised, Li Bing and Mu Long immediately made a posture of vigilance, Mu Long was in front, Li Bing was behind, and Bian Xuedao was protected in the middle.

The house is a duplex design, and when I first entered the door, the sound of rain outside the window drowned out the sound of the upstairs, and at this time the ears adjusted, and the three of them heard "buzzing" and "snorting" sounds from upstairs.

Glancing at Bian Xuedao, Mu Long whispered, "It's a vacuum cleaner." ”

Vacuum cleaner?

Who's cleaning up the house?

Shan Rao?

Part-time worker?

Thinking of this, Bian Xuedao relaxed his guard, but Li Bing and Mu Long did not.

The three had just come out of the airport, unarmed except for the keys.

When they were in China, Li Bing and Mu Long would carry daggers, electric shockers and throwing sticks with them, and they knew how to fight quite well in China, but now they are in the United States.

Guns are everywhere in the United States, and even street thugs, prostitutes, and white-haired old ladies can pull out a gun at will.

So as soon as they entered the United States, Mu Long and Li Bing were all under double pressure.

In particular, Mu Long, who has experience in personal protection of the wealthy, believes that although there is a pair of women's shoes at the door and the sound of a vacuum cleaner upstairs, it is not certain that there is only one person in the house, nor can it be determined that it must be a woman, let alone that the person upstairs must be doing hygiene.

The cases of the attack on his employer circulating in the circle of friends of Mu Long's bodyguards all happened when the guards were paralyzed and careless.

So Mu Long didn't dare to be careless.

He first made sure that there was no one on the first floor, then walked into the kitchen, pulled out two knives from the knife holder, and prepared to go upstairs quietly with Li Bing.

Bian Xuedao felt that the actions of the two were a bit exaggerated, but he didn't say anything.

With him by his side for so long, Bian Xuedao knew that Mu Long and Li Bing were doing things very safely, and if it was Shan Rao or a part-time worker upstairs, the two would not frighten each other and would quietly retreat.

Really......

Soon Li Bing walked down, put away the knife and said, "It's Miss Su." ”

Miss Sue?

Su Yi!

Bian Xuedao walked upstairs, and sure enough, he saw Su Yi vacuuming in the master bedroom, she was holding a vacuum cleaner in her hand, wearing a headset on her head, and seemed to be listening to a song.

Walking to the bedroom door, Bian Xuedao raised his hand and knocked on the door twice.

Hearing the knock on the door, Su Yi turned around in surprise and saw Bian Xuedao standing at the door, and she was stunned.

After being stunned for more than 10 seconds, Su Yi turned off the vacuum cleaner, took off the headset, looked at Bian Xuedao and asked, "When did you arrive?"

Bian Xuedao said with a smile: "I just got off the plane, of course I came in with the door open." ”

Su Yi asked, "Do you have the key?"

Bian Xuedao nodded and said, "Yes, Shan Rao couriered it to me." ”

"Oh. Su Yi wiped his hands on his apron and said, "I didn't know that Shan Rao gave you the courier key." ”

Glancing at the furnishings in the bedroom, Bian Xuedao asked Su Yi: "Why are you doing hygiene? Why don't you hire a part-time worker?"

Su Yi pulled the hair next to his ear and said, "No one has lived here for a long time, Shan Rao felt that it was not safe to hand over the key to the part-time worker, so she didn't invite it, it was all me who came to clean it week after week." ”

Bian Xuedao: "......"

Su Yi continued: "It was raining today, and I was afraid that it would not be safe to drive back to San Ramon Road, and it was my turn to clean this week, so I came over." ”

Bian Xuedao said: "It's a coincidence, I also suddenly decided to come to the apartment to have a look." ”

Su Yi said: "It's a coincidence, I usually come over once every two weeks. ”

Walking to the bedroom window to look outside, Bian Xuedao asked: "By the way, what about Shan Rao? Why didn't she come with you, she can't go back to San Ramon in such a heavy rain." ”

Su Yi said: "Shan Rao is not in San Francisco. Yesterday afternoon, she and Wen Congqian led a team to Chicago. ”

"Chicago?" asked, "What are you going to do there?"

Su Yi said: "Negotiated an acquisition with a game company in Chicago. ”

Bian Xuedao nodded: "Oh." ”

"Boom...... Rumble ......"

As the two spoke, San Francisco outside the window was stormy, lightning and thunder.

Glancing at his watch, Su Yi asked, "You haven't eaten yet, have you?"

Bian Xuedao said, "I didn't eat it." ”

Su Yi said: "It's just right, on the way here, I bought some food at the supermarket to prepare for dinner, which should be enough for the two of us." ”

Bian Xuedao shook his head with a smile: "I'm afraid it's not enough, there are two more people downstairs!"

……

……

Black clouds overwhelmed the city, and the rain became heavier and heavier.

Going downstairs to meet Mu Long and Li Bing, Su Yi looked much more relaxed.

This is a logical reaction.

With such heavy rain outside, there is a good chance that we will not be able to go back to Saint-Ramon.

Coincidentally, Bian Xuedao suddenly came to the United States, this is Bian Xuedao's house, there is no reason to drive people to the hotel, but if Bian Xuedao does not go to the hotel, lonely men and widows live in the same room, which is really not the case.

And with the addition of Mu Long and Li Bing, it is completely different, even if you talk to Shan Rao afterwards, it will not be too embarrassing.

Turning all the ingredients out of the refrigerator, Su Yi decided to make fried noodles.

But when he didn't want to cut the tomato, Su Yi accidentally cut his hand, and cut a small cut on his left index finger, leaving a lot of blood.

After helping Su Yi deal with the wound, Bian Xuedao tied an apron and said, "The wounded, please get out of the line of fire, I will do this tonight." ”

Bian Xuedao cooked by himself, and Mu Long and Li Bing couldn't sit still.

The two were embarrassed to squeeze into the kitchen and began to clean up the house.

Li Bing carried the vacuum cleaner and sucked the upper and lower layers. Mu Long was holding a rag, this wipe, that wipe, clumsy, looking very funny.

Bian Xuedao's cooking skills have always been very good.

When sitting around a table to eat, Su Yi and the three of them unanimously praised the fried noodles made by Bian Xuedao.

It was already 19 o'clock after dinner, and the heavy rain outside the window did not stop at all.

After cleaning up the dining table, Bian Xuedao looked at Su Yi and said, "The rain is too heavy, it's not safe on the road, you stay tonight, there are three bedrooms upstairs, you sleep in the master bedroom in the middle, and we sleep in the other two." ”

Su Yi listened, turned his head to look out the window, and at this moment, a lightning bolt pierced the night sky, followed by a loud noise above the clouds.

This way, I really can't go.

And Bian Xuedao said this in front of the two bodyguards, if Su Yi insisted on leaving, it would be tantamount to saving face for Bian Xuedao.

After thinking for a few seconds, Su Yi looked at Bian Xuedao and said, "You haven't called Shan Rao when you arrived in San Francisco, have you?"

Bian Xuedao immediately heard the meaning and said, "I was planning to call her after eating." ”

Half an hour later, when Bian Xuedao walked back to the living room with his mobile phone, Mu Long, Li Bing, and Su Yi were sitting on the sofa watching TV with a can of beer.

Putting down the phone, Bian Xuedao picked up a can of beer from the coffee table, opened it, and asked Li Bing: "How much can you understand if you look so carefully?"

Li Bing smiled and said: "The speed of speech is too fast, I basically can't understand it, and if I guess by looking at the pictures, I can understand one-tenth of it." ”

After taking a sip of beer, Bian Xuedao turned his head and asked Mu Long: "What about you, Old Mu?" ”

Mu Long nodded and said, "I can understand." ”

Thinking of the child in Shen Fu's belly, Bian Xuedao said: "Language is actually an environmental problem, throw a Chinese in the American pile for two years, and throw an American in the Chinese pile for two years, you can ensure that you can learn the other party's language." ”

Half an hour later, Mu Long and Li Bing went upstairs to rest.

The rest of Bian Xuedao and Su Yi sat on the sofa, neither of them spoke, watching TV intently.

After drinking the wine in his hand, he asked Su Yi, "Do you still have wine at home?"

Su Yi shook his head: "That's all, drink it all." ”

After being quiet for a while, Bian Xuedao asked Su Yi: "I've been in the United States for so long, and I haven't found a boyfriend?"

Su Yi took a sip of beer and said, "I also want to find it, but there is no suitable one." ”

Bian Xuedao asked: "Is it because your vision is too high?"

Su Yi said: "Maybe, but I think the main reason is that I haven't met the right person yet." ”

Bian Xuedao asked, "How can you be considered the right person?"

Su Yi hugged his legs and said: "For most women, the right person is ...... I never thought about getting married before I met him, I have been married to him for decades, and I have never regretted marrying him, and I never thought that I would be happier if I married another man. ”

After listening to Bian Xuedao, he said with a smile: "What you said is a bit ...... Even if modern society is free to fall in love, I still think that most people's marriages are gambled. Couples who hold hands for a lifetime and have no regrets are a minority of the minority, and most couples tolerate each other, accommodate each other, and stumble to the end of the day. No matter how beautiful a couple is, it is impossible for them not to quarrel, blush, or say angry words for decades in their lives, so what you say 'never regret' and 'never thought about' is unrealistic. ”

Su Yi listened silently, and after a while, he said: "What you said is right, but feelings are like scratching prizes, if you have scratched out the word 'thanks', you should let it go, there is no need to scrape out the 'thank you for your patronage' before throwing it away." ”

Bian Xuedao gave a thumbs up and said, "Think clearly." ”

Su Yi smiled and said, "Thank you for the compliment." Don't talk about me, let's talk about you, I heard Wen Congqian say that you also live on the top floor in Songjiang, why do you like to live on the top floor so much?"

Bian Xuedao thought for a while and said: "There is no obstruction in front of you, you can see heaven and earth, see sentient beings, and see yourself." ”
