"Oh?" Xing Guotan looked at the document in his hand with interest, "Is it okay as long as this is the case?"

Long Ao nodded: "It's just the ability to use shadows as a medium of teleportation, as long as the defense measures of the barrier are opened, the light intensity is increased and the shadow area is reduced, and the ability to shuttle through the shadows can be effectively organized." ”

"Good, good. Xing Guotan nodded and returned the documents in his hand, "Let Yin Qian hurry up and prepare, now the situation is not trivial, and she can't help but smile at her." ”

Long Ao nodded.

"Sit down and have a cup of tea before you go. ”

"No," said Long Ao, taking out a cigarette from his pocket, "There are still things in the group, and if you and Minister Han don't smoke, I will harm your lungs." ”

As he spoke, Long Ao nodded to Xing Guotan and Han She and walked out.

Han She looked back at Long Ao's back, he could tell when he first came to PRDC at the age of eighteen that he was a man who was a muffled man.

"Hmph," Xing Guotan smiled, "It was really my mistake to let that kid from Song Cheng take advantage of the loophole back then." ”

"After all, he made such a big fuss back then, even the Speaker of the House of Representatives couldn't be able to dispel the public opinion," Han She turned around and asked Xing Guotan while holding up the teacup, "Has the Speaker seen Han Qiu recently?"

Xing Guotan raised his eyes and looked at Han She: "Because the situation is getting more and more tense, I have given him the qualification to fight freely, presumably he will often go out to explore in the future." ”

Han She nodded and didn't speak again.

"I know you're worried about him," sensing his doubts from Han She's silent reaction, Xing Guotan poured him tea and comforted, "But there are some things that only he can do, right." ”

As soon as the conversation changed, Xing Guotan asked again: "Is there any movement on Renjie's side? At this time, I don't want him to do something foolish that affects the entire PRDC." ”

Han She shook his head: "Since the last time you relieved him of his power, Song Cheng seems to have cut off contact with him. Without Gao Liang and Song Cheng again, the deputy speaker is now powerless. ”

Xing Guotan smiled and put the small silver kettle filled with water on the stove: "That's good, that's good." ”

"You're too lenient with him," the weather was getting colder, and the fireplace in Xing Guotan's office was already working, but Han She still gathered his scarf, "You're too lenient with everyone. ”

Xing Guotan laughed: "Not everyone is as desireless as you, as long as you have desires, you will inevitably make mistakes, as long as you don't cause a big disaster, I can forgive you." ”

"What about Song Cheng's troops?"

Xing Guotan waved his hand: "Let him go, I think although Song Cheng doesn't have much ability, at least he can prioritize, if he is willing to help at a critical moment, it would be the best." ”

......

Ying Lan turned over, and her arm did not touch Gu Lichuan as usual.

"Huh?" he closed his eyes and touched it carefully as if he were sure.

Gu Lichuan is indeed not there.

So she opened her eyes and sat up.

Gu Lichuan's room was not large, with only a wardrobe against the wall, a desk with a bookcase, a short sofa by the window, and a bed.

Lingering looked around in a daze, and then looked at the watch on the wall.

It's close to ten o'clock.

"Oops, terrible," said to herself, Ying Lan got up and put on the pajamas thrown at the end of the bed, and hurried to the living room, "The first time I stayed at Lechuan's house, I got up so late, I would be disgusted." ”

As she spoke, Ying Lan ran to the living room while brushing her hair with her hands, and found that Qin Huai was the only one crooked on the sofa.

"Huh, are you up?" Qin Huai saw Ying Lan walking out of Gu Lichuan's room, so he sat up and made way for Ying Lan.

Ying Lan smiled and nodded: "Am I getting up too late?"

Qin Huai shook his head: "No, I just got up, Lechuan may have gotten up earlier." Lethe's dad hasn't gotten up yet. ”

So Ying Lan put her mind at ease and breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.

At this time, the door opened, and Gu Lichuan walked out while wiping his hair.

"You woke up so early today. Seeing Ying Lan standing in the living room, Gu Lichuan sighed in some surprise.

Ying Lan pouted at Gu Lichuan: "I usually don't get up very late!"

Gu Lichuan saw through Ying Lan's embarrassment, so he nodded with a smile.

Ying Lan stepped forward and poked Gu Lichuan's chest with her fingers: "You made the bathroom wet, how can I wash it." ”

Gu Lichuan pointed upstairs: "We don't have much else in our house, but there are many bathrooms." ”

"I'm the last to wake up. At this time, Gu Ercheng also yawned and walked downstairs.

"In terms of sleep duration, you are the one who sleeps the least," Qin Huai turned his head to Gu Lichuan and Ying Lan and said, "What time do you guess he slept last night?"

"Three o'clock?"

"Half past four?"

Qin Huai shrugged his shoulders and said, "Half past six." He went back to his house at half-past six to sleep. ”

Gu Lichuan gasped and turned to look at Gu Ercheng: "Are you insomnia?" ”

Gu Ercheng glanced at Gu Lichuan and didn't speak.

At around half past ten, Gu Lichuan began to prepare lunch with Qin Huai, although Ying Lan wanted to participate in the kitchen to make herself not so idle, but she still returned to the living room at Gu Lichuan's insistence.

With the sound of stir-frying from the kitchen, Gu Ercheng brought the coffee to Ying Lan: "Do you need sugar or something?"

Ying Lan shook her head.

Gu Ercheng sat down, turned his head to look at the book on the coffee table, and thought for a while.

Then, he let go of the idea of going to get the book and looked at Ying Lan instead.

"Yinglan, how long have you known Gu Lichuan?"

"Huh?" Ying Lan was distracted with coffee, and raised her head when she heard Gu Ercheng's inquiry, "Uh...... Possible...... Less than half a year. ”

Gu Ercheng continued to ask: "How did you meet? I remember that he had been in a semi-otaku state before, and he didn't go out much. ”

"Well," Ying Lan lowered her head and looked at the coffee cup, "It was raining that day, and I met Lechuan in the old town of Shuntang City, I can't remember the specifics a little, but I remember that he was very sad that day." ”

Gu Ercheng remembered that he really had no contact with Gu Lichuan when Rita Davis died, and maybe Yinglan was the Gu Lichuan he met at that time.

So Gu Ercheng took a sip of coffee and fell silent.

Seeing that Gu Ercheng didn't speak, Ying Lan raised her head. I happened to see a family photo hanging on the wall.

"That," Ying Lan pointed to the photo, "is that Lethe's mother?"

Gu Ercheng looked over, and the photo was a young Gu Lichuan and a young woman.

"Hmm. Gu Ercheng nodded.

"Lethe's mother is so beautiful. Ying Lan looked at Gu Lichuan's mother in the photo and sighed, the appearance of the mother she knew was obtained from the photo, and her mother in the photo was either with Ye Xian, or with the baby's Ye Hanshu, but after all, none of them were with her.

Gu Ercheng nodded and asked Ying Lan, "What do your parents do?"

Ying Lan frowned a little embarrassed, and explained to Gu Ercheng: "My father runs a company. My mother died when she gave birth to me, and my father said she seemed to be ...... when she was alive He is a painter. ”

After listening to Ying Lan's description, Gu Ercheng picked up the coffee cup and hesitated for a moment.

At this time, Gu Lichuan came over from the kitchen: "The meal is ready." ”

Then, he seemed to smell a hint of discord: "What are you talking about?"

Gu Ercheng raised his eyes and looked at Gu Lichuan: "I'm talking about your mother." ”

"Why are you still swearing? ”

Ying Lan was amused by Gu Lichuan and laughed.

Gu Ercheng sighed: "Why are you getting poorer and poorer the bigger." ”

So Gu Lichuan ran into the kitchen with his tongue painted: "You should have given birth to a daughter back then, not me." ”

After eating, the four of them went to the cemetery to sweep the grave of Gu Lichuan's mother.

On the road, Qin Huai, who was sitting in the back seat, suddenly poked his head forward, and asked Gu Lichuan, who was driving, and Ying Lan, who was sitting in the co-pilot: "That, when are you going to get married?"

"The more you ask, the later we finish. Gu Lichuan felt upset when he heard this kind of worry, so he deliberately said this to anger her.

"If you don't tie the knot, you won't get married," Qin Huai reached out and grabbed Gu Lichuan's ear, "I think if Ying Lan wants to get married, you can't agree to it." ”

Ying Lan just laughed, of course she didn't dare to say things like "I've already been married once".

"Today is my mother's death day, if my mother sees you bullying me like this, I'm afraid you won't have good fruit to eat. Gu Lichuan couldn't turn back while driving, so he could only look ahead and use his mother's name to suppress Qin Huai.

Who knows, Gu Ercheng, who was sitting next to Qin Huai, also spoke: "Even if you pull him, I will approve it." ”

"Sure enough," Gu Lichuan cast a pitiful look at Ying Lan, "I knew that this day would come sooner or later, but I didn't expect it to come so soon." ”

The cemetery was quiet, and occasionally a few people shuttled between the tombstones, put down the flowers, stood for a while, and then left.

Gu Lichuan stood behind Gu Ercheng, and he didn't dare to speak nonsense at this time.

"Your mother has been gone for so many years, and in the blink of an eye, you are going to start a family. Gu Ercheng looked at the photo of his wife on the tombstone and said to Gu Lichuan.

Gu Lichuan nodded: "Finally, he has not degenerated into a person who gnaws at the elderly." ”

"Hmph," Gu Ercheng smiled, "You see, you have quarreled with me for so many years, and in the end, you still obediently went to the company to work." It seems that there was nothing wrong with letting you study law back then. ”

Gu Lichuan smiled awkwardly, he really didn't dare to say that he was doing the murderous business now.

"But it doesn't matter," Gu Ercheng reached out and touched the tombstone, "as long as you live happily, you can do anything." ”

As he spoke, he looked back at Gu Lichuan: "It's good to do anything." ”

Gu Lichuan looked at Gu Ercheng, he usually didn't have so many words. I don't know if it's because I brought Ying Lan home, so Gu Ercheng is in a better mood.

Thinking of this, Gu Lichuan suddenly remembered something.

"Dad," Gu Lichuan called out to Gu Ercheng, "Do you remember Agnostos Theos?"

Gu Ercheng raised his eyebrows, and I have to say that Gu Lichuan's action of raising one-sided eyebrows was completely inherited from Gu Ercheng: "Remember, what's wrong?"

Gu Lichuan thought for a while and said, "I recently met ......"

Suddenly, the shouts of Lan behind him interrupted his conversation with Gu Yicheng.

"Lethe!"

So Gu Lichuan looked behind him-

A man was rising from his dark shadows.
