Chapter 62: Winter Crimson
In the dark of the night, snowflakes were falling.
Lu Tingxuan's vision was restrained by red.
This restraint pressed down on his throat, suffocating him to the point of dying for a time.
Four thugs infiltrated the Lu house and plundered and laundered the valuable things of the Lu family.
Lu Tingxuan's father and mother were lying in a pool of blood like that.
Their deaths are blind, as if there is some unfinished business in this world.
Ten-year-old Lu Tingxuan could only cover his mouth and hide in the closet, shedding silent tears.
This is the first time that Lu Tingxuan has clearly felt that if he does something wrong in the future, he will not be scolded by his father and scolded by his mother.
Tang Liujiu and the police rushed to Lu's house as soon as possible.
But it was still a step too late.
"Mr. Tang. "Officer Qian didn't let go of any clues," according to the scene of the crime, it is inferred that Mr. Lu should be in the house at that time and hold a family banquet. β
Officer Qian took out the photo frame from the top of the cupboard, "The cake on the table still has the word 'Shou' that has not been cut, which just means that the protagonist of the party is Mrs. Lu in the photo." β
Then he picked up the milk on the table, the white gloves were still warm, "As far as I know, this imported milk is suitable for children under the age of twelve. β
"In addition to the deceased, the gangsters should have kidnapped Mrs. Lu and the little young master. β
"Money sir. A surveyor, muttering a few words in his ear.
After a while, Tang Liujiu saw a police officer take out a boy from the cabinet.
He recognized that it was the only son of an old friend, Lu Tingxuan.
"Little master. Officer Qian asked, "I know, this is cruel to you." β
"But you are the only eyewitness to this massacre. β
"If you are willing to tell the police uncle the whole process of the case, the police can arrest the gangsters as soon as possible, so as to comfort the spirits of Mr. Lu and his wife in heaven. β
"Blood ......"
Lu Tingxuan blindfolded his hands, "There is a hole in my mother's body...... There was bright red blood flowing out......"
"It's a bangβI can't stop it......"
β...... Dad said he would find a way to raise money to save Grandma's ......"
"But the men didn't listen, and they took turnsβridingβonβmother......"
The father rushed over...... fell to the ground......"
Lu Tingxuan clasped his ears with both hands, "...... Ahh......h
ββ¦β¦ I don't know anything......"
At the moment when he was about to lose his hold, Tang Liujiu caught Lu Tingxuan in time.
"Officer Qian, I think this is the end of the questioning. β
Tang Liujiu deduced: "Old Lady Lu is still in the hands of the kidnappers now, and their target is the entire Lu family. β
Officer Qian nodded, and he looked at Lu Tingxuan in Tang Liujiu's arms sympathetically.
A ten-year-old child witnessed the death of his parents in front of him, and the trauma in his heart is difficult to remember for the rest of his life.
"Then the little young master of the Lu familyβ" Officer Qian hesitated.
"I'll take care of it from now on. β
"Mr. Lu and Tang are always close friends, so it's okay. Officer Qian instructed several capable police officers under his command to carry the body away, "There is something to trouble Mr. Tang." β
"But it doesn't hurt to say that. β
"This case looks like an ordinary robbery, but Mrs. Lu was tied up and her whereabouts are still unknown. I suspect it isβ"
"The Lu family has an internal ghost?"
Tang Liujiu changed the position of the boy in his arms.
"Mr. Tang, this is just my further speculation. Officer Qian looked at the evidence bag, "Although there are many knife wounds on Mr. Lu's body, it is not fatal. β
"If you want to do an in-depth examination, you have to have a forensic doctor perform an autopsy. β
At this point in Officer Qian's words, Tang Liujiu understood, "Are you worried that the Lu family's inner ghost will block it and refuse the autopsy?"
"Therefore, I will have to bother Mr. Tang at that time. β
......
Streamer yawned and added some charcoal to the fireplace.
Tang Qingwan heard the sound of the car turning off outside the door, and jumped up happily, "It's Dad who is back." β
"Miss, slow down. β
Tang Qingwan ran to the entrance, she stood on tiptoe and opened the door.
"Awan. Tang Liujiu sighed between the hands that were close together, "I'm sorry." β
"Dad was delayed, so he came home a little late. β
Lu Tingxuan behind him was wrapped in a thick coat, and his hand tightly grasped the corner of Tang Liujiu's clothes.
Tang Qingwan tilted her little head and looked intently at the strange little brother in front of her.
"His name is Lu Tingxuan. Tang Liujiu introduced, "His family was taken away by the bad guys." β
"Awan. From now on, we will be his new family, okay?"
Tang Qingwan pulled a big smile at Lu Tingxuan, and she stretched out her warm little hand, "Little brother." Hello. β
"My name is Tang Qingwan. β
"From now on, you are welcome to stay in our home. β
Lu Tingxuan jumped past Tang Qingwan, and the streamer shouted in front: "Stinky boy, you dare to be rude to our young lady." β
"Little light. Tang Liujiu scolded, "Ah Xuan just lost his parents. You go and clean the house in the east wing on the second floor, and Ah Xuan will live there in the future. β
Streamer pouted and took Lu Tingxuan to the second floor.
Tang Liujiu picked up Tang Qingwan, who was still stunned in the entrance, "My little princess." β
"Your little brother didn't mean to ignore you, it's just that we still need time to wait for him to get out of his pain. β
The charcoal fire of the fireplace, burned out its last rays.
At night, Tang Qingwan felt thirsty.
She jumped out of bed and wanted to go downstairs to get a glass of water.
After opening and closing the door, a strange sound came from the east end of the long corridor.
Tang Qingwan was very bold.
She followed the sound, and the door of the new little brother's room was open.
Through the faint moonlight, she saw the young man's empty eyes and the bloodstains on his arms.
"Brother Tingxuan. β
The young man raised his head mechanically, Tang Qingwan opened the door and asked in a low voice, "What are you doing?"
"Why am I the only one left alive?"
The boy in front of him, so sad.
He continued to clutch his arm back and forth with his fingernails.
Tang Qingwan was a little scared, and she said timidly, "...... It's going to hurt...... Don't catch it anymore......"
She ran to his side, "Brother Tingxuan, you are not alone. β
Tang Qingwan's little hand held Lu Tingxuan's cold right hand, "I, my parents, and Brother Xiaoguang will be your family in the future." β
β...... It's all in the past...... Don't be upset......"
The girl's bright smile rekindled hope in Lu Tingxuan's dead eyes.
He let her into his arms, and listened to her say, "From now on, we will be together forever and ever." It won't be separated. β
Won't it be separated?
Lu Tingxuan watched the police take Gu Yanyan away.
From birth, he was destined to be an ominous man.
is about fifteen years old, and he looks at Tang Qingwan's eyes more and more fondly.
The relationship between the streamer and him has also become harmonious.
Tang Liujiu was the first to notice his anomaly.
One day, he called Lu Tingxuan to the study, "Ah Xuan." β
"Uncle Tang. β
Although Mrs. Lu was successfully rescued in the end, as far as the law is concerned, Lu Tingxuan has been passed to the Tang family and can be regarded as Tang Liujiu's adopted son.
But Lu Tingxuan refused to open his mouth and call Tang Liujiu a father.
Tang Liujiu has no son, if Ah Wan grows up and is not interested in business, it would be a pity that there is no heir to this huge family property.
So when he adopted Lu Tingxuan, he was a little selfish.
"Ah Xuan, sit. β
Tang Liujiu gestured to Lu Tingxuan.
"How many years have you been in the Tang family?"
"Five years. β
Lu Tingxuan was restrained, would Uncle Tang find out something, did he want to drive him away?
"Five yearsβ" Tang Liujiu said meaningfully, "It's been so long." β
"Uncle Tang. β
Lu Tingxuan stood up from the stool in a hurry, "If Tingxuan does anything wrong, please ask Uncle Tang to punish him." β
"Hey. You kid. β
Tang Liujiu walked to Lu Tingxuan's side, and he patted him on the shoulder, "I came to you mainly to askβ"
"What do you think of Awan?"
As soon as the words came out, Lu Tingxuan's handsome face turned red.
After a while, the young man's thoughts were self-evident, "Qingwan...... Very good......"
"That's good. β
Tang Liujiu showed a playful smile, "Then does Ah Xuan like our Ah Wan?"
"Huh?" Lu Tingxuan's palms were tense and sweaty.
"Like. β
"Oh?" Tang Liujiu hooked Lu Tingxuan's neck, "What kind of liking is it?
"Uncle Tang. β
Lu Tingxuan avoided Tang Liujiu's restraints, "I still have homework to do, so I'll go out first." β
Many years later, Lu Tingxuan realized that he had missed a good opportunity, and that day Tang Liujiu wanted to promote him and Qingwan.
Qingwan has grown to the age of fifteen, and she has already charmed the entire Sichuan City.
She was the most beautiful of their group.
Lu Tingxuan was admitted to the best public security university in China, and Tang Liujiu happily held a celebration party.
"Lu Shao, when are you going to tell Miss about your heart? β
The streamer was already drunk.
Lu Tingxuan looked at Tang Qingwan, who was helping Tang Liujiu serve food not far away, "Wait for Qingwan to be older." β
The doorbell rang.
Tang Qingwan went to open the door, Fu Sinian was drenched in the rain from outside, and stomped his feet at the entrance and was stupidly happy, "Qingqing." Fortunately, the gift was not wet. β
Tang Liujiu served the braised carp that had just come out of the pot, "The dishes are all ready." β
"Hey, I'm here. β
"Hello uncle. Fu Sinian bowed politely to Tang Liujiu.
"It's coming, it's coming, why are you still carrying gifts. β
"Uncle. Fu Sinian still bowed, "Thank you for handing over Qingqing to me." β
"Ahem. Lu Tingxuan was stuck in the throat by a fish bone, and when he saw Fu Sinian, he smiled and said to Lu Tingxuan: "Lu Shao, your rival is here." β
"Ah Guang, you've drunk too much. β
"That-" Streamer pointed at Fu Sinian, "the crown prince of the Fu family." It's been chasing our young lady for a long time. β
Chuancheng Fu family.
Since ancient times, it has been a famous family in Sichuan City.
Although in this generation, the economy of Sichuan City is controlled by the four major families, and the Fu family has always occupied the leader.
And such an identity of oneself.
Lu Tingxuan clenched his fists, and he looked at the three people not far away talking and laughing.
His eyes were a little poked.
Qingwan, do you like that boy?
In the next second, his assumption became a reality.
Tang Qingwan smiled and dragged Fu Sinian, "Brother Tingxuan, let me introduce you." β
"This is my boyfriend, his name is Fu Sinian. β
Lu Tingxuan jumped over the two people in front of him, he had no intention of greeting Fu Sinian.
Instead, he said to Tang Liujiu: "Uncle Tang, I'll go back to the room first when I'm full." β
"Wait. Fu Sinian stretched out his long arm to block Lu Tingxuan's way upstairs, "Lu Tingxuan, is it?"
"I'm sorry about your family's affairs. β
This man is ruthlessly uncovering the deep scars in Lu Tingxuan's heart.
"But wouldn't it be too rude for you to be like this now?"
