Chapter 56: Illusion
When the vehicle stopped suddenly, Lin Zhenru's body also slammed into the front, but fortunately there was a seat belt, and she was pulled back again.
Looking at the darkness in front of her with a somewhat dull expression, the best smiling face of her father in her memory slowly disappeared, turning into tears of helplessness and grief, and she completely disappeared into this world while she was young.
At that time, I may have been scared stupid and didn't react at all, but after understanding the importance of the matter, it was completely late, I reached out and touched the tears in the corner of my eyes, and when I was about to open the door, a tissue suddenly appeared in front of me.
Zheng Xiao, who was sitting next to her, stared at her face, and asked with a hook of the corners of his mouth: "Are you sad?" ”
"Crying doesn't have to be sadness, it can be tears of joy." Lin Zhenru, who smiled, reached out and took the tissue, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes casually, and refuted his question.
When he was faced with this kind of expression that could be seen at a glance, he couldn't imagine that the other party would still have a hard mouth, and laughed helplessly: "The expression that looks like this is not like this, I dreamed of your father." ”
The only thing that can make this woman so sad is probably the deceased father, after wiping his eyes and tears, he clutched the paper ball in his hand, and when he stretched it out again, it was already creased, and he looked at the things in his hand a little distracted.
"What can be seen in the expression, people like us live in this world, probably wearing masks, who knows what is behind that illusion?"
"Maybe." Unexpectedly, such a paragraph was suddenly confided, Zheng Xiao also fell into thought, and finally made a judgment with some detachment, opened the door and walked down.
When she came back to her senses, she casually threw the paper ball in her hand aside, followed him down, and waited until she got out of the car to see clearly that the place she came to was not the villa she knew, but a towering mansion.
Looking at the name of the hotel written on the entrance in front of her, she asked a little puzzled, "Why are you here?" ”
"The two of them are eating here." Pointing inside, Zheng Xiao looked at the dresses on the two of them that they hadn't had time to change, which was indeed suitable for this place, reached out and grabbed each other's arms directly, and naturally walked inside.
For his movements, Lin Zhenru, who was slightly resistant, dragged his body back and looked up at the floor above, estimated the situation inside, and protested a little uneasily: "It's not good for us to go up, the two of them are just romantic." ”
"There's nothing bad about it, the two of them have time anyway." Zheng Xiao, who dragged him in, replied casually, and pushed her directly into the elevator.
For him, he has already arrived at this place, and his time has been completely used, and it is a waste of time to go back now, just go up and ask Xi Haodong for something.
After listening to the explanations of the two of them, Xi Haodong hugged his head and hit the table directly, startling the remaining three people directly, and then raised his head and cried and defended with a sad face: "No, we don't have time, we were destroyed by Wu Yinuo last time, you can't want to burn us because my brothers are married alone." ”
He seriously suspected that a few of them had discussed it and deliberately came to make trouble for him and Mo Chuqing, but this point was too accurate!
Mo Chuqing, who was wide-eyed, observed Zheng Xiao, who did not react at all on the other side, hurriedly played a round in the middle, stretched out his hand and called the waiter on the side, and put forward his opinion in a cheerful tone: "Oops, it's all here anyway, order another meal, let's eat together!" ”
Shaking her hand at the waiter who came over in black and white overalls, Lin Zhenru put the menu in her hand back on the table, and persuaded her: "It's okay, Chu Qing, I'm already full, I'm sorry, I really bothered you." ”
Mo Chuqing, who was rejected, nodded, and his eyes returned to his food, the scene was a little silent for some reason, and even filled with an awkward atmosphere.
After thinking left and right for a while, she sighed, carefully looked under the table, and after confirming the direction, she kicked Xi Haodong's foot,
The startled other party sat up straight, and when she was about to question her, Mo Chuqing preemptively asked Lin Zhenru next to her: "It's okay, by the way, I'll go to the bathroom, you can go with me!" ”
She had been sitting in her seat and had nothing to do, but she looked up at the calm Zheng Xiao, nodded and stood up: "Okay." ”
Xi Haodong, who was holding a knife in his hand and slicing the meat around, tilted his head and watched the figures of the two women disappear into the hall before picking up the red wine bottle in front of him, pouring a glass for Zheng Xiao by the way, and finally spoke: "What's the matter?" ”
"What's going on?" He sniffed the goblet slowly, glanced at him, and asked rhetorically.
was simply scoffed at this kind of answer, Xi Haodong looked very serious, adjusted his seat, looked directly at Zheng Xiao next to him, and his tone also lowered: "Don't pretend to be stupid for me, why are you with Lin Zhenru, she is a university librarian, you can't take benefits from it, what do you want to do to her?" ”
If you tell the other party the truth that because you were forced to marry by your family, you just found a girl to block the wind, and if this matter reaches Mo Chuqing's ears, it will definitely be a bit of trouble.
How to answer is the perfect answer, when he was thinking, the other party punched him directly in the shoulder, although it was a kind reminder, after all, where is the body, Zheng Xiao felt that the place where he was beaten was almost bruised.
While rubbing his arms, he replied in a joking tone: "I'm going to say, I like her, you don't believe it, right?" ”
Love at first sight is indeed possible for Zheng Xiao, after all, after he first met Mo Chuqing, he was also concerned about everything, but he had been a friend of the other party for so many years, but it can be seen from the reflection that this guy didn't take Lin Zhenru seriously at all.
The two people who had no emotion came together, there must be something inside, Xi Haodong's expression became impatient, and he directly gave him an ultimatum: "Don't talk about me, even Lin Zhenru doesn't believe your set of words, what did you promise her?" ”
Still dangling the goblet in his hand, carefully observing the red wine flowing inside, this bottle is eighty-two years old, plus such a high-end place, the selling price is definitely not low, if the price of this bottle of wine is handed over to Lin Hai, it may be an opportunity to make a comeback.
Now his daughter can consume this bottle of wine without moving, and the things in the world are really wonderful.
Seeing that the person in front of him didn't speak, he was anxious and directly snatched the wine from his hand and put it on the table with a snap: "Zheng Xiao, if you really lack a woman, I can help you introduce it, but don't touch the people around Chu Qing, if you hurt Lin Zhenru like this, the relationship between us will become very bad at that time." ”
After there was nothing to stare at in his hand, Zheng Xiao's attention finally shifted to the other party's body, holding his hands in front of his chest, with a defensive posture: "Do you want to help me check someone first?" ”
"Is there anything else in the world that you can't investigate?" For this blunt method of changing the topic, it is not like Zheng Xiao's style at all, and he still can't help but complain.
Faced with this problem, he showed his self-confidence, there is really nothing in this world that he can't find, and sometimes the more he finds out, the better it is: "No, I found a lot, but it was difficult to stop." ”
There are only two possibilities if things can't be investigated, one is a dead end, and the other is to meet a guy who can't be messed with, and if the former is true, Zheng Xiao can't get rid of him again, so it's possible to do it later.
I don't understand, relying on the identity and status of the other party, and things he can't mess with, after realizing this, he suddenly became interested: "Find out who it is." ”
Asking others to do something, he didn't hide it at all, and directly said it all: "I found Duanmu Xue's body, and the person you want to help me check is Lin Hai." ”
After meeting Lin Zhenru before, Xi Haodong immediately checked her family background according to his habit of doing things, although it was a little special and shocking, but it didn't cause any problems to Mo Chuqing, so he put it aside.
Now recalling this familiar name, his expression gradually became surprised: "Your mother, and Lin Zhenru's father, how can the two of them intersect?" ”
A small businessman, and Duanmu Xue is such a legend, Zheng Xiao and his mother are so powerful, and even for a while, after Ouyang Yumei heard about the past experience, she used it as an idol to worship.
It stands to reason that there is no ending for the two of them, Zheng Xiao really doesn't know the truth of this matter, otherwise it would be impossible to get rid of him to investigate: "I don't know, it's dangerous for me to check further, you can help me inquire in the military region, you can tell me any news?" ”
This matter is not a problem, there are so many eyeliners in the military region, and they can definitely find out something, and even if Duanmu Xue finds out, there may be the identity of the military region to cover up the past, and after thinking about it, I felt that there was no problem and agreed: "Okay, but you still haven't told me, why are you with her?" ”
But the final topic went around and around, and Zheng Xiao's eyes quickly enlarged when he heard it, and he reached out and picked up the glass of wine in front of him again, and continued to stare at it.
Facing him who was silent, Xi Haodong had no choice at all, he couldn't beat the other party, even if he really did it, according to the degree of his belly, he and Mo Chuqing would definitely be in danger, and the whole person lay directly on the table.
Mo Chuqing, who was walking back on the other side, obviously had the same idea, and after going around a few times, he jumped back and forth with his hands behind his back, and said in a very casual tone: "You don't seem to be happy." ”
But disguised in nature, the nervous eyes still betrayed her, and after Lin Zhenru, who was walking forward, looked up at him, he quickly refused, shook his head and replied: "No." ”
