Xia Lan thought that Qiao Zimo would lock her up in a small apartment in New York for a long time, however, in fact, they only lived in the small apartment for less than three days, and Qiao Zimo took her out of New York again.

Of course, he still did not take her back to Bencheng, but took her directly to France, but not Paris, but Provence in the south of France.

France Xia Lan has been here before, but every time she goes to Paris, sometimes to accompany her mother to go shopping, sometimes to go to the fashion show with friends.

And Provence, a tourist city that has been popular in China because of a certain TV series, she really hasn't been here before, or to be precise, she doesn't plan to come here alone.

Four years ago, she and Qiao Zimo talked about Provence in New York, USA, and Qiao Zimo said at that time: "When we get married, we will go to Provence for our honeymoon." ”

Now, she and Qiao Zimo are married, and he brought her here as promised, but is this a honeymoon?

Where did the honeymoon come from, he clearly locked her up, and the whole thing was locked up like a prisoner.

Qiao Zimo took Xia Lan directly to a villa in Provence, and Xia Lan didn't know if Qiao Zimo bought this villa himself or rented it.

"Don't you have to go back to Ben Cheng to work?" Xia Lan looked at Qiao Zimo, she didn't even have the strength to quarrel with him now.

Just went back from the hospital and quarreled, and she smashed a lot of things, but Qiao Zimo was like a cold machine that didn't respond, and a person couldn't quarrel with a machine.

Therefore, instead of quarreling with Qiao Zimo, it is better for her to calm down and get along with him well, and see if she can find a chance to escape.

"This year, the design department is not busy, and I asked Tong Zhensheng for a month off." He replied faintly.

A month off? One month? So long? What does he mean by going on a honeymoon with her?

But are the two of them like husband and wife? Although the two of them have applied for a marriage certificate and are legally husband and wife, in fact, the two of them are more like enemies.

Most of the people living in southern France are local people, Xia Lan didn't speak French in the first place, not to mention the native French spoken by these people, she couldn't understand half a word.

There was no landline, no computer, and she didn't have a mobile phone, not even a TV, so she lost the opportunity to communicate with the outside world.

So, her daily thing is to eat and sleep or sleep, there is a French maid in the villa, and she can't understand what she says, and when she speaks, the other party can't understand it.

There is no need to do anything, not like the walking dead, and gradually, she is numb like a piece of wood.

At night, she lay on the bed and slept quietly, and during the day, she curled up in the sofa and sat quietly, her eyes looking straight in the direction of the door, which was always locked with a lock.

And Qiao Zimo would buy different dishes every day, and then go to the kitchen to cook all kinds of dishes she liked for her to eat according to the recipes, and before that, he was a practitioner of 'gentleman's cooking' and almost never stepped into the kitchen.

Xia Lan silently watched him do all this, anyway, she had lost her freedom, even if she went for a walk in the yard, the old French woman would follow her inch by inch, for fear that she would escape over the wall.

She made a noise and he ignored it, she beat him hard, and he endured it silently, she refused to cook his meals, and went on a hunger strike, and he directly asked the doctor to give her nutritional injections.

In a word, no matter what kind of attitude she is in this yard, in short, she wants to be in this yard, she wants to go out, no way!

Finally, Xia Lan has made enough trouble, and she has tossed enough, anyway, no matter how much she makes trouble, Qiao Zimo will not let her go according to her wishes.

The most terrible time she tossed was to smash all the vases in the villa, making the ground full of broken porcelain pieces, she thought that Qiao Zimo would definitely be angry, and then in a fit of anger, she asked her to get out of the way.

But who knows, Qiao Zimo came back and saw the broken porcelain pieces all over the ground and was not angry, silently went to buy a lot of vases and came back, and then calmly said to her, you can smash it as much as you want, let's buy it again.

He said so, she didn't even have the heart to smash the vase, what's the use of smashing it? Qiao Zimo still won't let her go.

In a blink of an eye, twenty days have passed, and she and Qiao Zimo have been married for twenty days, and according to normal marriage, the honeymoon has passed more than halfway.

She didn't know if Bincheng's parents knew that she was brought here by Qiao Zimo, and she didn't know if her eldest cousin and second cousin knew that she was locked up here by Qiao Zimo.

And Lu Ruidong? Her husband Lu Ruidong, is he looking for her? And she's in this place, where does he go to find her?

......

Bincheng, after the Lantern Festival, all work was on track, and Lu Ruidong naturally started to work.

Since Xia Lan's disappearance, he has been looking for Xia Lan almost every day, but he has tried all his methods, but there is still no news of Xia Lan.

On the Tong family's side, the only person he could contact was Zhang Zijun, but Zhang Zijun said that on the day Xia Lan disappeared, she and Tong Zhenyu happened to take the twins back to see her grandmother, so they didn't know where Xia Lan went.

Of course, the biggest suspicion is naturally Qiao Zimo, because after Xia Lan disappeared, Qiao Zimo was no longer in Bincheng.

So, he looked for Qiao Zimo's traces, but soon, he found that Qiao Zimo's traces could not be queried at all, and he didn't know where Qiao Zimo took Xia Lan at all.

He also entrusted the Thunder Army to help investigate, and the Thunder Army naturally couldn't find out.

"Lu Ruidong, you better let it go, it is impossible for the Qiao family to let Xia Lan marry you, Qiao Zimo can't afford to lose this face, and the Qiao family can't afford to lose this person."

Thunder Army persuaded him bitterly: "If you hold on to Xia Lan and don't let go, you are not doing it for her good, you are harming her, do you know?" ”

"How could I be harming her?" Lu Ruidong looked at Lei Tingjun puzzled: "I am really good to her, and she is willing to marry me, what kind of society is it now........"

"Let's not talk about the current society." Lei Tingjun hurriedly took his words, then shook his head and said: "Between you and Qiao Zimo, you know in your own heart, the two of you competed from abroad to China, and there was a major project that time, didn't the two of you fight to the death?" ”

"That's in the career," Lu Ruidong frowned: "In private, in life, I rarely interact with him, saying that he is a friend, but in fact, he is also the kind of meeting and greeting, so ordinary that it can't be more ordinary." ”

"You have fought with him to the death in your career, do you think he will let you in this life? Especially your own partner? Do you think he will give Xia Lan to you? ”
