Chapter 197: My Wife
Thinking back to Zhuang Xiaoting's heavy makeup, I breathed tightly.
When I looked up and saw the worry that Zhuang Yan's eyes couldn't be withdrawn in time, I didn't dare to say anything. After all, he is Zhuang Xiaoting's own brother, although the two of them get together less and leave more, but after all, he grew up watching Zhuang Xiaoting, Uncle Zhuang and his wife often quarreled in the past, I feel that Zhuang Yan is like Xiaoting's half father, and the relationship between the brother and sister must be very strong.
Zhuang Yan quickly gathered his expression, and instead wrapped my little hand to go inside.
I called him softly, and he looked at me with an inquiring look.
I pulled him to the side and gently hugged him under his puzzled eyes: "Don't hold everything in your heart, I have no hostility towards Xiaoting, don't worry about me being unhappy." Thinking of what Zhuang Xiaoting said to me, my heart still tingled, "Zhuang Yan, have you ever regretted insisting on being with me? Do you feel that I hurt you? When you were away before, I felt that I was your calamity, and I ......"
The warm hand pressed against my lips, and when I looked up at him, he withdrew his hand and bowed his head to kiss me.
The nimble tongue twitched in my mouth a few times like a fish, causing me to tremble slightly: "Fool, what are you thinking about? Did Xiaoting tell you these words? Don't worry, she is not sensible." ”
"You haven't answered. ”
He shook his head with a smile and bit my lip helplessly: "I don't regret it, you didn't hurt me, but saved me." ”
A simple sentence stirred up a thousand waves in my heart.
He said I saved him, but in my heart he saved me.
He never treated me as inferior to him, and he always told me over and over again how good and precious I was in his eyes. Other men will like the new and hate the old, but he has always regarded me as a treasure, and I feel that I have lived enough to meet him in this life.
When I returned to the dining table, everyone was drunk, and the fat man was angry and couldn't have a seizure, so he instigated people to keep clinking glasses with Zhuang Yan, and some people toasted me.
Zhuang Yan didn't shirk either, every time someone poured me wine, he only said: "Xixi is inconvenient and can't drink." Then he took my glass and drank it down.
His wine is very good, unlike the fat people, who brag when they drink too much, and when others question it, they are anxious. Zhuang Yan is different, he knows how much he drinks, he doesn't let himself get drunk easily, and he goes to the bathroom every time he drinks a few glasses, which I later learned is his habit - he will spit out the wine when he goes to the bathroom in the middle of the party.
The only receipt of the wedding banquet that day was that someone introduced Zhuang Yan to work, but the company was in another province and the scale was not large, and it seemed that an experienced and capable person like Zhuang Yan was needed to open up a world.
Zhuang Yan didn't nod to his face, nor did he refuse, he only said that he had to think about it.
I know he's worried about me, my job at the wealth management company has stabilized, and if I follow him, my own job will be ruined. If he had been allowed to go on his own, we would have been separated by two places, but my belly was getting bigger and bigger, and he would not be able to rest assured.
In the past, he would definitely refuse without thinking about it, but now he is short of money, so he no longer has the same crispness as before.
On the day of the wedding banquet, we stayed in that hotel, which was a room prepared by Jiangyang for the guests.
When Zhuang Yan went out to Jiang Yang to help inquire about Zhuang Xiaoting's whereabouts, I contacted the new manager to inquire about the possibility of being transferred to another branch. If the city where Zhuang Yan is going happens to have a branch, and I happen to be able to transfer there, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds?
The new manager said that this issue needs to be discussed in detail, and that it will be discussed with the branch I want to transfer to when the time comes.
Someone knocked on the door while talking, and I waited until I hung up the phone before going to Maoyan to see the situation outside, it was a strange man.
I hesitated and didn't dare to open the door, but the man looked at Maoyan and said, "Zhuang Yan?" he said and raised the document bag in his hand at Maoyan, and glanced to the side in surprise, "Shen Xi?"
The gods were mysterious and strange, but I still opened the door by surprise.
I haven't seen this man, he looks very ordinary, the kind of ordinary that you can't find if you put it in a crowd. There was no feature in his facial features, but the moment he opened the door and saw me, his eyes suddenly lit up, and they were dazzling. However, his eyes quickly returned to normal, as if they were wrapped in a layer of fog, unpredictable.
I intuitively felt that this man was not simple, looked at him vigilantly, and smiled politely: "Zhuang Yan is not here, may I ask if you are ......?"
The man smiled: "The surname is Zhou, and my name is Zhou Jin." ”
He spoke very strangely, I didn't believe that he was also called Zhou Jin: "Zhou Jin asked you to come to Zhuang Yan?"
He grinned silently and shook his head with a smile.
It's like I'm watching a pantomime, and if I wasn't sure he wasn't making a sound, I would have suspected that something was wrong with my ears. This person is so strange, and in just a few minutes, I felt this feeling in my heart again.
My guard was clearly seen by him, and he raised the document bag in his hand towards me and put it on the table: "Good things, be sure to hand them over to Zhuang Yan." It's so late, where have the others gone?"
"Zhou Jin is abroad, how can I let you bring something to Zhuang Yan?" "I don't lack my heart and eyes as I used to be, but I have empty eyes and no negotiation skills and ability. To learn from the ingenuity of those of them, I still lack the heat and experience.
The man shook his head, silent.
But his posture on the sofa is not as loose as that of ordinary people after sitting on the sofa. He seemed to be constantly alert to the movements around him, but he sat extremely firmly, as if he wanted to wait for Zhuang Yan to come back.
I felt a lot of pressure from such a person, and I began to regret letting him in. My alertness is still not high enough, next time I shouldn't hear Zhuang Yan's name and let someone into the house, in case the other party has a ghost in his heart, I am a pregnant woman who has no ability to fight back.
The man didn't go, and I stood still and didn't move.
The atmosphere was silent for about five minutes, he frowned slightly and looked at his watch, as if he was a little anxious: "Where did Zhuang Yan go? Why haven't you come back? ”
I swallowed dryly, and pretended to ask casually when I took my phone: "Zhou Jin didn't let you come, right?"
Zhou Jin hasn't contacted Zhuang Yan for a long time, stealing the USB flash drive is very dangerous, even if her husband protects her, but who knows what serious consequences will occur after she is exposed? Of course, it is impossible for me to betray Zhuang Yan and I, she has been tossing for so long, and in the final analysis, she is also a poor person who has been going around in the maze of love for too long.
The man grinned again, still silent, but this time it creeped me out.
This kind of person is really dangerous, Uncle Jiang usually keeps his anger in his bones, Uncle Zhuang directly puts arrogance and indifference on his face, and even Qin Shoucheng will not put insidious on his face naked. These are human spirits, and they are all human spirits who know how to converge their hearts.
But this man is different, his plain eyes will burst out a little cold from time to time.
Just as I was about to call Zhuang Yan, the man's mobile phone rang, like the scam and harassing calls that everyone usually receives. The man didn't answer, but he got up with a tight brow: "Zhuang Yan is not here, I'll leave first." ”
He refused to leave his name, and went away quietly, as he had come to knock on the door.
I stared back at the file bag for a few seconds, and it felt like a ticking time bomb.
Tomorrow, Zhuang Yan will take me to my sister-in-law's house to watch Lele, otherwise we won't stay here at night. As soon as the strange man left, I realized that something was wrong, there was surveillance in the hotel corridor, if the man didn't want people to find out that he was coming to Zhuang Yan, why didn't he meet Zhuang Yan somewhere else?
My brain cells simply didn't have enough in front of these elves, and I patted my head with a headache, thought about it, and hid the file bag in the closet.
Didn't I use this bag of papers as a time bomb? I was still worried about putting it in, so I took a bath towel from the bathroom and pressed it on it. I don't know why I did this, but I feel that I can't see it when I hide it, and I won't be so panicked.
I had just finished doing all this when there was a sound of footsteps outside the door, a little cluttered, and it was about to stop at the door of our room.
There was another knock on the door, this time a group of uniformed security guards, and two men in formal suits. I've seen these two men, they are the people standing at the main table at today's wedding banquet, people like bodyguards and the like - I guess, there must be big people sitting at the main table anyway, maybe there are henchmen of the former high-ranking officials of Bai Zi?
"Mr. Zhuang?" the security guard who knocked on the door began to call the door, and I felt that the group was chasing the strange man in front of me.
I looked at the floor in a panic, and then ran to the couch where the man had sat to take a look. There was a darker piece on the dark gray sofa, I touched it in surprise, and the fingers were actually red, it was blood!
I didn't even smell any blood just now, because the incense burned in the hotel room, which may have overshadowed the smell. We're just too nervous to be aware of it.
I was frightened, so I quickly put things on the couch to suppress the bloody gas.
After doing all this, when I wanted to answer the door, I finally heard Zhuang Yan's voice: "What's the matter?"
Through the cat's eye, I saw him frowning unhappily, if Jiang Yang wasn't beside him, it is estimated that those people would not be so polite to Zhuang Yan: "My wife is pregnant, you rush in with this posture, if something happens, it will be a corpse and two lives." ”
Wife, I felt a burst of joy in my heart.
As he spoke, his gaze was fixed on the blind spot on either side of the door.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, I noticed that two security guards with electric batons had walked into the cat's sight with a smile.
I was sweating finely, were they trying to come in and arrest someone or something? If I had opened the door just now, would they knock me down or cut my hands like a prisoner?
Jiang Yang glanced at the others angrily, and finally said a few words to one of the people in formal clothes.
The man looked at Jiang Yang fixedly, and finally nodded deeply and went to the next room to knock on the door.
It's strange, why did they knock on our room first?
When I put Zhuang Yan and Jiang Yang in, my face must have been very bad. However, in order to ease the atmosphere, I grinned at Zhuang Yan: "You just said that I was your wife." ”
