On a late autumn morning, there was already some fog and no wind.

"Miss, it's a little cold outside. Chunsheng entered the door with a basin of hot water, trembled twice and complained, "Miss, you don't know, downstairs is busy." ”

Su Qingwan didn't seem to hear it, and stood silently in front of the dresser. The eyes are looking straight somewhere, and there is a little distraction. In the upper right corner of the dresser is a white jade pendant, with a hollow pattern, a rounded background, and a familiar engraved text.

Su Qingwan raised the corners of her mouth shallowly, she almost forgot that today was the day of her second brother's engagement.

"Second Young Master!" At this moment, he suddenly heard Chunsheng's surprised voice, "Why are you here, it's not ...... today" Su Qingwan turned around and saw Su Jinfeng standing at the door.

"Second brother. Su Qingwan screamed softly. Su Jinfeng looked at her quietly outside the door, and only said after a while, "Wanwan, it's good if you don't go." ”

Su Qingwan lowered her head and did not speak.

"Wanwan. He suddenly called her again, Su Qingwan looked up at him, but Su Jinfeng smiled impermanently, "I have something to say to you...... You wait for me to come back. ”

Su Qingwan nodded, turned around and didn't look at him again.

As soon as noon passed, Su Mansion was very quiet. Su Qingwan and Chunsheng walked out of the door, planning to take a walk in the courtyard. As soon as I reached the corner of the stairs, I saw a person walking towards me, a dark gray robe, who seemed to be a subordinate of Su Fu.

When the man walked past them, he bumped into Su Qingwan lightly and heavily. Su Qingwan was about to speak, when she suddenly felt that a note was quickly stuffed into her right hand. Su Qingwan was slightly stunned, and then clenched his palms quietly, and the subordinate stood aside and kept bowing his head to admit his mistake, "I'm sorry, miss, I'm sorry, I'm new......"

Chunsheng saw that Su Qingwan was fine, and there was no blame on his face, so he only symbolically reprimanded him, "You should be careful in the future." ”

The man retreated in response. Su Qingwan looked back at the man deeply before turning around and going downstairs.

The noon sun touched the warmth of the face, Su Qingwan paced slowly, Chunsheng turned his head to see the flowers beside him blooming beautifully, turned around and let go of Su Qingwan's hand, walked over and took a closer look.

Su Qingwan lifted it slightly, pinched the note in his hand, raised his hand to open it, and there were two lines of words on the note.

Wanwan, at seven o'clock in the evening, I will wait for you in the back garden, remember to go alone.

The handwriting is very similar to hers, and it is the second brother.

Su Qingwan frowned after reading it, what does the second brother mean by this, isn't it his engagement banquet at seven o'clock tonight. Su Qingwan clenched the note tightly and looked into the distance, full of depressed branches, a thin scene.

The night in Shanghai is bustling, and tonight's big world is even more lively, with an endless stream of vehicles driving in, and the people who get off the car are either rich or expensive, and even the dignitaries of the political circles who rarely show up come to cheer, and the waiters in bow ties are busy saluting and responding, and they dare not have a trace of slackness.

Another black car drove up, and the waiter in charge of the team immediately glanced backwards when he saw the number, and two waiters ran up from behind and stood on one side, with a very nervous face. The waiting car on the right stopped steadily, lowered his head and opened the rear seat door, and his voice was respectful.

"Second master. ”

As soon as Gu Shaoting raised his hand, his face was expressionless, he put on his coat and raised his feet and walked inside, Zhou Yong followed closely from behind and walked to Gu Shaoting's side, and reported in a low voice, "Second master, it's here." ”

Gu Shaoting looked ahead, his voice was flat, "When?" Zhou Yong replied, "The news says it's tonight, and the time is around early in the morning." ”

Gu Shaoting nodded, and confirmed again, "Has Qiu Shi gone?" Zhou Yong bowed his head, "I went, and those who followed were all skilled, the second master could rest assured." Even though he said this, he still frowned imperceptibly, as if he was a little worried.

Walking to the venue, Gu Shaoting stopped, took a glass of red wine, glanced at Zhou Yong, and pointed, "Don't protect him too much, it's time for him to break through on his own." Zhou Yong was grateful, and his head became lower and lower, "Zhou Yong understands, thank you for the second master." ”

Gu Shaoting took a sip of wine, his gaze swept to a familiar figure not far away, he gestured slightly to Zhou Yong, and Zhou Yong nodded and retreated. Gu Shaoting raised his glass and greeted him with a smile, "Uncle Li." ”

Li Pingxuan turned around and saw Gu Shaoting's eyes light up, he walked over and patted Gu Shaoting's shoulder, "Shaoting, but I haven't seen you for a long time." Li Pingxuan said and looked up at him carefully, and seemed to sigh, "It's a pity that we Gu Li and Li are two families." Gu Shaoting just didn't hear it, and raised his glass slightly, "Uncle Li still looks so tough. ”

Li Pingxuan laughed heartily twice, "I'm still old, I'm old...... Is your father well?"

Gu Shaoting smiled slightly, "Father is in good health, and he called yesterday and asked me to say hello to you on his behalf." Li Pingxuan sighed with emotion, "It's good that the general is healthy, Li will definitely visit him another day." ”

Gu Shaoting took a sip of wine, and the corners of his eyes were slightly sharp, "You're polite." ”

The sky was getting darker, and Su Mansion was quieter after nightfall, Chunsheng spread the quilt and looked out the window, "Miss, you see, it's getting dark earlier and earlier, and it's not even eight o'clock." ”

Su Qingwan also looked out the window, and finally stood up after thinking for a while, "Chunsheng, I'll go out." ”

Chunsheng looked at her, turned around and got out of bed, "Miss, it's so dark, what are you going to do?" I'll go with you." Su Qingwan shook her head, put on her coat and walked out of the door, "Chunsheng, you can't go." Chunsheng froze in place, looking at Su Qingjuan's back and frowning suspiciously.

The back garden of Sufu is quiet, and the sound of the wind wafting in the night is a little scary. Su Qingwan tightened his coat and walked into the garden, his eyes probed twice, and sure enough, he saw a figure in front of him, Su Qingwan stared at the man's heart tightly, looking at the figure, but it was not the second brother.

The figure was hidden in the dark, revealing only a pair of eyes, and when he saw her coming, his voice was low, "Miss Su." Su Qingwan suddenly became vigilant in his heart, and while slowly stepping back, he asked, "Who are you?"

The person in the shadows seemed to smile lightly, "You don't need to know who I am, it's just that our master has something I want to ask you for a favor today......" As he said that, his tone suddenly turned low, revealing a hint of ruthlessness, "Miss Su, I'm offended." ”

Su Qingwan's heart sank, and she immediately turned around, but she didn't expect that there were two people lying in ambush behind her, one of them saw her turn around and quickly stepped forward to cover her nose and mouth with a handkerchief, Su Qingwan only felt a choking smell rushing straight into her lungs, and she lost consciousness in a moment.

The venue of the big world is staggered, and it is coming to an end. Gu Shaoting leisurely took a glass of wine and stood aside, his head was slightly rising, and he was about to turn around, when he saw Zhou Yong running over from the door.

Gu Shaoting stood in place and waited for him to come over, Zhou Yong's face was anxious, not as calm as before, "Second master, something happened." As he spoke, he went over and explained the reason.

The lights of the big world are as white as day.

After Zhou Yong finished speaking, Gu Shaoting's face changed, and the hand holding the wine glass was slightly strained, "Have you found out who did it?" Zhou Yong shook his head, frowned and hesitated for a moment before saying, "They are all guarding outside the mansion, and I haven't seen anyone come out, but most of them are ......" Zhou Yong lowered his head again and whispered a name.

Gu Shaoting's eyes suddenly turned cold, put down the wine glass and turned around and walked out, his voice was as cold as ice.

"Go to the Sixteen Shop Pier. ”
