Chapter 101: Blankets
In the tavern, an old man over half a hundred years old was holding a cigarette pouch in one hand and rubbing his legs with the other, his face full of nervousness. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"Two young masters, old man, I... I really don't know anything! ”
The old man's nervousness didn't seem to pretend, Lan Xue hurriedly said softly: "Old man, don't be nervous, we came to ask you about that night, and we just want to confirm what happened that night, so you just need to answer us truthfully." ”
The old man looked at the two of them, hesitated for a long time, and then said in a trembling voice: "For what happened that night, in fact, the old man is really not very clear, I only know, there was a man who came that night, look at the dress, it is not an ordinary person, I wanted to come forward to ask, but unexpectedly the person gave me a hundred taels of silver, said let me close, at that time I was an old man, naturally I couldn't afford to provoke them, so I took the money to the back, and then the front door was plugged in, and I couldn't get in." ”
"What? You said there was only one man that night? Not only Murong Qing was stunned, but Lan Xue's face also changed, how could she be alone? Immediately, she immediately thought of something, and hurriedly pulled Murong Qing and said, "What about the portrait?" Did you bring it? ”
"Wait a minute, I'm in the carriage." Murong Qing turned around and walked out of the tavern, and soon walked in with four portraits.
Spread the four portraits on the table one by one, and said, "Old man, look at the man you saw that night is the person in this portrait?" ”
The old man looked at it and shook his head.
"Neither?"
The old man waved his hand and said, "I don't know! That night the man wore a veil that covered most of his face and only showed a pair of eyes, so I couldn't recognize it! ”
"What? Actually wearing a veil? Lan Xue and Murong Qing glanced at each other, and they both frowned. It seems that the other party did it on purpose, that is to say, when the eldest brother and they went that night, it was not this boss who entertained the guests in the tavern! Perhaps, that person was the one they had arranged for in advance!
The two of them were depressed, and suddenly the old man said, "By the way, I remembered!" ”
"What do you remember?" Murong Qing hurriedly asked.
The old man said: "Originally, my memory was not very good, and I didn't know much about the person more than a month ago, but because what happened that night was too special, I clearly remember that although the person was veiled, there was a black mole near the corner of his left eye near his nose, although it was not big, but I remember clearly, there was a mole there!" ”
"Black mole!" Both of them were overjoyed, and hurriedly took the four portraits and looked at them, but to their disappointment, there was no person with a black mole in the corner of the eye in these four portraits.
"Who could this man be?" Lan Xue pondered.
Murong Qing's brows were slightly furrowed, and he said after a while: "I think, I know who that person is!" ”
"Who?" Lan Xue hurriedly asked.
Murong Qing looked at Lan Xue, the expression on his face gradually solidified, and he slowly spoke: "This person... It seems to be Xu Ming, the son of Xu Shangshu. ”
"What? Xu Shangshu's son? Lan Xue's face changed again.
How could this involve Xu Ming, the son of Xu Shangshu? Could it be that he was also involved in this? Lan Xue suddenly felt that one head and two big! It's a mess! It's such a mess!
When she left the tavern, Lan Xue had been in a daze, and Murong Qing didn't know what she was thinking, so she didn't speak when she asked her, just in a daze.
It wasn't until he got into the carriage that he came back to his senses and said, "You say, if this matter is very involved, will it be more difficult to return my eldest brother's innocence?" ”
This is naturally a fact, but Murong Qing can only shake his head and say, "Xue'er, don't worry, no matter who is involved in this matter, I will help you return our eldest brother's innocence!" You trust me. ”
Lan Xue glanced at him, and didn't care about the language in his words, just nodded and said, "Thank you, the only person I can rely on now is you." ”
"Don't worry! My shoulders are always there! "Lan Xue at this moment is so fragile, just like a little girl standing in the desert, surrounded by the vast desert, but she is only one person, very pitiful.
And what he has to do is to help her, accompany her, and let her get better gradually. No more loneliness, no more sadness.
The carriage returned to the Lan Mansion, but the Lan Xue on the carriage had already fallen asleep, Murong Qing couldn't bear to disturb her, so he put a blanket over her body, sat next to her, and looked at her quietly.
She is very beautiful, but not charming, her beauty is quiet, it is gentle, just like a clear spring, a breeze, a beam of sunshine, she exists, but it will not make you feel any abruptness.
And this kind of beauty is the kind of beauty that is more comfortable and attractive the more you look at it, so he fell in love with Lan Xue when he first saw her.
As the sun sets, the horizon is dyed in red, making it extremely beautiful. The fiery clouds are even more like waves of fire, surging into the distance in waves.
Lan Xue, who was sleeping, blinked her long eyelashes, and slowly opened her eyes, only to see Murong Qing sitting on the other side of the carriage and falling asleep with her head up. And he was covered with a blanket. No wonder I didn't feel cold when I slept in the car.
Looking at Murong Qing's appearance, Lan Xue's heart gradually softened, whether he liked him or not, but his feelings for him were real, with his identity, there were actually many women he could choose, but he was paranoid about himself.
Although she didn't know where she attracted him, let him be willing to go to the frontier for himself, train every day, and endure hardships, and this time when he came back, he accompanied him every day to investigate the case, and he worked hard, why wouldn't he?
She is not hard-hearted, she also knows that Murong Qing has paid a lot for herself, but that's the case, she is only grateful to him in her heart, at least, so far he has not let himself feel like her, of course, she will not deny whether it will be in the future. But at least for now, there's still something missing.
"Hey! Wake up, don't sleep! Lan Xue retracted her thoughts and reached out to pat Murong Qing's face.
Murong Qing trembled for a moment, then woke up and said busily, "What's wrong?" Going? ”
Lan Xue Yile said: "Don't go, it's not early, I'll go back to rest, you go back and rest early!" With that, Lan Xue got out of the carriage.
Murong Qing was stunned, and then hurriedly followed and got off the carriageway: "Xue'er, are you okay?" ”
Lan Xue turned her head to look at him, nodded, and said, "I'm fine!" Sure enough, I was full of energy after a good night's sleep, and thank you for the blanket! It's really warm! ”
