Chapter 446: Blue Lotus
In the evening, Chen Mingyuan and Ye Qingxue both returned to the county seat.
Chen Mingyuan originally wanted Yin Qingning to work hard and send Ye Qingxue back to Wenhai, but he didn't want Ye Qingxue to suddenly propose to go to the night market.
For this unexpected proposal, Chen Mingyuan couldn't help but mutter, but he still instructed Yin Qingning to drive towards the night market in the riverside, where there are all kinds of snacks along the Longkou River for more than ten miles.
When they arrived outside the night market park, Yin Qingning parked the car, exchanged glances with Fang Xiang, and bluntly said that the two had some personal matters to do, so they would not follow up.
Obviously, both of them could see that Ye Qingxue had something to say to Chen Mingyuan in person, this light bulb should not be deserved!
Chen Mingyuan didn't pay attention to these two guys, and when he saw Ye Qingxue strolling inside alone, he followed.
"It's very lively here at night, not only do you have all kinds of authentic snacks, but you can also walk along the river and exercise." Chen Mingyuan said with a smile: "This is also discovered by the greedy ghost of Peach, and he often returns from here for supper......"
Speaking of this, Chen Mingyuan's heart suddenly moved, stopped, turned his head and looked at the gate of the park, with a strange look on his face.
Ye Qingxue looked at Chen Mingyuan's line of sight and found that they were all ordinary pedestrians, and there were some vendors selling small handicrafts, and there was nothing special, so she asked suspiciously, "What are you looking at?" ”
Chen Mingyuan shook his head, turned around and smiled: "It's nothing!" Let's go inside! ”
He didn't explain, but for a moment, he suddenly felt that someone was staring at him in the distance, not the feeling of an acquaintance, but a feeling of being locked, so he stood down and wondered how he could have this feeling.
Ye Qingxue said "um" and followed behind Chen Mingyuan, looking preoccupied.
It is the height of summer, the night market is in full swing, look up, three or five people at a table, drinking beer, eating hot pot barbecue, listening to music, so comfortable.
"It's so lively here!" Ye Qingxue's face stretched a little smile, "It's exactly the same as when I was a child." ”
Chen Mingyuan was surprised: "You used to come to this place when you were a child? ”
Ye Qingxue nodded, crossed her arms and sighed: "When I was very young, I was only five or six years old, every time my father made a little money by pulling goods, he would lead me here...... " She recounted the past word by word, her face showed a look of remembrance, "Later, when I went abroad, I often recalled the scene here in my dreams...... It's a pity that now I can't find the feeling I had at the beginning. ”
Chen Mingyuan opened his mouth, but there was something unpleasant.
Ye Qingxue's eyes suddenly turned pretty, and a brief warmth appeared in her clear blue eyes, and she looked at him without blinking and said, "Just now...... Thank you so much. ”
Chen Mingyuan just shook his head and laughed softly: "I told you a long time ago that I will stand on your side unconditionally when I encounter any problem, it was before, it is now, and it will be in the future." ”
Ye Qingxue's eyelashes fluttered twice, her cherry lips twitched slightly, and with the throbbing heartbeat, she finally lowered her soft and warm eyes.........
…………
Chen Mingyuan took Ye Qingxue to find a table with a good location, located in the center of more than a dozen snack bars, and he said: "Whatever you want to eat, just order it, today I have a treat and take you to relive the feeling of childhood." ”
Ye Qingxue glared at him angrily, and said angrily: "I can't eat you poorly!" He buried his head in looking at the menu, and ordered snacks one by one with Qianqian's fine fingers, although he said that he wanted to eat poor Chen Gongzi, but when he got to the end, he only ordered less than ten things.
Chen Mingyuan waved his hand and said heartily: "When eating, don't be so polite, otherwise I will choke!" With that, Chen Mingyuan stood up, walked around, and ordered what he ate, which was nothing more than barbecue, skewers, and a few cold dishes.
The barbecue was quickly delivered, barbecued meat, grilled rabbit, grilled fish, grilled mushrooms......
Chen Mingyuan pushed the barbecue plate in front of Ye Qingxue and said with a smile: "Try it, compared with the Western food you usually eat, it has a different flavor!" ”
Ye Qingxue was not polite, she tried them one by one, and preferred grilled squid and grilled potato, these two are the unique characteristics of Ruining, the appearance is not very eye-catching, and even a little burnt black, but the chopsticks are picked, the meat inside is extremely delicious, and the aroma is overflowing.
At this time, on the stage in the center of the night market, a singer performed on stage, Ye Qingxue listened for a while, and said: "He plays the guitar very well!" After a moment's hesitation, he turned his head and asked, "Do you know how to play?" ”
Chen Mingyuan thought about it and said with a smile: "It seems that there will be a song, it is Xu Wei's "Blue Lotus", which I learned from a buddy in the dormitory when I was in college. Catching up with Ye Qingxue's somewhat expectant gaze, she smiled bitterly: "Do you want me to go up and play?" ”
Ye Qingxue didn't answer directly, she turned her head and continued to look at the stage, and wrote lightly: "Today happens to be my birthday." ”
Chen Mingyuan was stunned, then he knew what she meant, nodded and sighed: "Okay!" Good! The birthday star is the biggest! After hesitating for a moment, he said tentatively: "So, you are over thirty this year?" ”
Ye Qingxue's face was covered with frost in an instant, like the sharp rays of a cold knife shooting towards Chen Mingyuan.
Chen Mingyuan knew that he had asked something he shouldn't have asked, smiled apologetically, ran onto the stage with a smoke, took advantage of the gap, explained a few words to the singer, and pointed to Ye Qingxue, obviously explaining that he wanted to sing a song for the birthday star.
But the singer pretended to be smart, and shouted loudly with the microphone: "Now I invite this gentleman to play a song for his beloved girlfriend's birthday, please come and applaud!" ”
The audience burst into applause and whistles.
Chen Mingyuan was so embarrassed that he was troubled, but it was not easy to retreat in front of everyone's eyes, so he had to take the guitar and sit on the bench to try the strings.
Ye Qingxue was also blushed, her bright eyes were more as if they were about to squeeze out water, so clear that they made people palpitate, but she still tried to hold back her panicked heartbeat, and raised her head and didn't want to miss the moment when Chen Mingyuan played.
Chen Mingyuan familiarized himself with the strings, cleared his throat, and opened his mouth to play and sing: "Nothing can stop you, your yearning for freedom, your unbridled career, your heart has no worries......"
Although it was inevitably a little jerky at first, when I recalled that period of youth, the feeling of youth also filled my heart again, and the song and the song gradually coincided: "Through the dark years, I also felt hesitant, and when you looked down, you realized that the road under your feet was ......"
Ye Qingxue held a small transparent glass in both hands, sat quietly, the focus of her pupils gradually dizzled, as if she couldn't suppress it, a stream of water vapor blinded her eyes, and she was stupid.
"The free world in my heart, so clear and lofty, blooming and never withering, the blue lotus ......"
…………
"Why are your eyes red, you were crying just now?"
"Why! Don't talk nonsense, I'm just, I'm blown into the sand by the wind......"
After eating barbecue here, Chen Mingyuan and Ye Qingxue walked side by side along the river, along the way, Ye Qingxue's mood was obviously a little wrong, and she deliberately turned her face away, unwilling to face Chen Mingyuan, seeing that Chen Mingyuan was asking hard, he quickened his pace, and this walk went far away.
At first, the riverside park was full of people walking, exercising, and twisting Yangge, bustling, and after reaching the most dense, the park became less and less pedestrian.
Chen Mingyuan looked at the time and said, "You still have to catch a plane tomorrow, so let's go back early." ”
Ye Qingxue was a little distracted, and she was vaguely disappointed, but she just followed him back silently, hoping that this road would be longer.
When walking past a street lamp, Ye Qingxue suddenly said, "You, your shoelaces are loose!" ”
Chen Mingyuan looked down and saw that the leather shoelace on his right foot was loosened and fell to the side, but he didn't even notice it, so he squatted down on the side of the road and began to sort out the shoelaces.
Ye Qingxue looked at him for a long time without blinking, hesitated again and again, and said softly: "Where is the Mu family...... You've already agreed, right? ”
Chen Mingyuan nodded lightly and said with a wry smile: "It's almost, but it's ...... I guess it will take a while, and the old lady said that she wants to check my performance again. Communicating casually, after Chen Mingyuan squatted down, he found that there was a stainless steel trash can in front of him, but he didn't care about moving the place anymore, so he hurriedly tied his shoelaces.
Ye Qingxue stood beside her, her hands behind her back, her head turned sideways and looked at Chen Mingyuan tying her shoes, with a confused and trance look on her face, as if she was appreciating an extremely beloved thing that was gradually moving away from her.
"Mingyuan, there is something I want to tell you." Ye Qingxue said suddenly, and her face gradually looked struggling.
Chen Mingyuan lowered his head and tied his shoelaces, and said, "You say." ”
Ye Qingxue took a breath, bit her cherry lip and said resolutely: "I have already made a decision, after the Radon Spring Hotel is completed next year, I will stay in Rui ...... for the president" Before she finished speaking, Ye Qingxue's eyes suddenly widened, and she saw Chen Mingyuan, who was originally squatting on the ground, suddenly jumped up, opened his arms and pounced on her.
"Ah......h
Before Ye Qingxue could react, she was hugged by Chen Mingyuan, and then the two fell into the grass on the side of the road together.
Boom!
There was a huge noise behind him, and the stainless steel trash can that was squatting in front of Chen Mingyuan just now flew a few meters away!
"Niang Xipi, this kid is hiding fast, give me all up, fight!"
A hoarse voice shouted, and I heard the sound of rapid footsteps behind me, as if a lot of people were running towards me.
Ye Qingxue turned around and saw a bald fat man with scars in the corners of his eyes, holding a two-foot-long steel rod in his hand, stepping forward quickly, and as soon as he raised his hand, the steel rod was pumped towards Chen Mingyuan.
"Ahh Ye Qingxue was so frightened that her face turned pale, and she screamed.
The steel rod came too fast, not giving Chen Mingyuan any chance to get up, and the tip of the stick swept Ye Qingxue for a few points.
Chen Mingyuan immediately made a decision, gritted his teeth, and pushed Ye Qingxue to the side violently, and then his body slid to the side, turned sideways, and took the steel rod with his back, and then swept out with one leg and kicked the fat man to the ground.
Without waiting for the fat man to get up again, Chen Mingyuan turned over and squatted up, and smashed it with one punch.
"Click".
The fat man's teeth flew out of the spit, and after making an arc in the air, he fell into the grass, and when he was halfway up, he lay straight down again, motionless on the grass, obviously beaten unconscious.
Chen Mingyuan picked up the steel rod, reflexively knocked over another person who rushed up, and then jumped, quickly pulling Ye Qingxue who fell to the ground to protect him.
As soon as the two of them stood firmly, they were surrounded by a dozen strong men holding steel rods.
Ye Qingxue was frightened by this sudden change, although her face still looked calm, her hands involuntarily grabbed the clothes on Chen Mingyuan's back.
The corners of Chen Mingyuan's eyebrows couldn't help twitching, because of the pain in his back.
"Who are you?" , Chen Mingyuan asked, his chest was full of anger, it was too dangerous just now. The fat man came to his back quietly, suddenly waved the steel rod, and smashed it on his head, if he hid for a second at night, and received this steel rod on the head, he must have been seriously injured at this time, and the dead fat man was simply killing him!
Coincidentally, Chen Mingyuan squatted in front of a trash can that did not attract steel, and as soon as he looked up after tying his shoelaces, he happened to see the shadow of the stick flashing from the barrel of the trash can, and he didn't have time to judge who the stick was aimed at, so Chen Mingyuan jumped up sideways and threw himself into the grass with Ye Qingxue.
The big men who came up were also a little surprised, usually the fat man's stuffy stick is a hit of accuracy, but today he actually missed.
The big men looked at each other, didn't say a word, and rushed up with the sticks, ready to make a mess.
Chen Mingyuan was furious in his heart, and with a sudden kick under his feet, the grass clippings flew towards the big men on the opposite side with the sand, and the big men had to dodge with their faces sideways to prevent the sand and gravel from flying into their eyes.
As soon as the steel pipe in his hand tightened, Chen Mingyuan suddenly turned around, and rushed towards several other big men behind him, and the steel rod in his hand swept or poked, attacking again and again.
Ye Qingxue only felt that she was being dragged violently, and her body flew out with Chen Mingyuan, and then she felt like a flat boat in the waves, swaying wildly with the wind and waves.
If the other party doesn't fight, he will put Chen Mingyuan to death, how can Chen Mingyuan be polite at this time, the steel rod in his hand uses a lot of strength, and if he goes down, as long as he hits the ground, the other party will either break his hand or break his leg, and he doesn't even bother to use any technique, it is a brute force.
The big man on the other side dodged the sand, gravel and grass clippings, and when he turned around, he was stupid, and several of his own people over there just lay down in this short period of time, and fell to the ground one by one and screamed miserably.
The guys who were about to come up and beat the sticks were a little discouraged at this time, and they were hesitating whether to continue to rush, but after Chen Mingyuan put down a few, he turned around and hit this side, and for a while there were bursts of screaming wolves.
To say that these big men are also ruthless people, if they dare to fight to the death, Chen Mingyuan is better than a fast word, and he will never fight with any of them.
In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen big men all lay on the ground.
Only the last one remained, standing there tremblingly, the steel rod in his hand was about to be unable to hold it, Chen Mingyuan went down with a stick, and he could hear a crisp sound of fractures, this movement scared the man so much that his courage was about to break, he didn't expect that today's original group beating situation would turn into a group of people beating a group.
Chen Mingyuan raised the steel rod, pointed at the man, and shouted: "Say! Who are you, and why do you want to kill me? ”
These people are by no means robbing money, nor are they motivated to see the color, because whether it is robbing money and robbing sex, they will not take people's lives as soon as they come up, the other party is completely prepared, and looking at the simplicity of this move, it is by no means the first time to do this kind of thing!
The man was frightened by the murderous aura that came out of Chen Mingyuan's eyes, and was hesitating what he wanted to say, this hesitation, Chen Mingyuan kicked over, and when the man flew up, he could hear the sound of broken ribs, and then fell to the ground and passed out.
Ye Qingxue was also frightened by Chen Mingyuan's god-killing appearance, and was at a loss for a while.
Chen Mingyuan sighed, took out the phone, dialed Song Biao's number, and said, "I was attacked by someone in this section of Jiangbin Park, you bring someone over immediately!" ”
Song Biao was so frightened when he heard this, he didn't ask about the situation in detail, and immediately said, "Okay, wait a minute, I'll come over right away!" ”
After hanging up the phone, Chen Mingyuan threw out the steel rod in his hand, and his brows couldn't help twitching again.
Looking back at Ye Qingxue, who was standing stupidly on the spot, Chen Mingyuan walked over quickly, covered Ye Qingxue's eyes, and then picked her up directly and put her behind a sculpture not far away, where he couldn't see the scene at all.
"You're standing here, I'll have someone pick you up!" Chen Mingyuan looked at Ye Qingxue's eyes, "Those people are coming at me, and they have nothing to do with you!" ”
Ye Qingxue first nodded subconsciously, and then shook her head vigorously.
Chen Mingyuan ignored her, picked up the phone and dialed Yin Qingning's phone again, asking him to come and pick up Ye Qingxue.
Putting down the phone, Chen Mingyuan walked over there, but as soon as he turned around, Ye Qingxue behind him screamed in shock, "Your back is injured!" ”
Ye Qingxue followed, stretched out her hand and was about to lift Chen Mingyuan's clothes to see the injury, she came back to her senses now, remembering that Chen Mingyuan's stick was to push herself away, and she was forced to take it.
"It's okay!" Chen Mingyuan pressed Ye Qingxue's hand, "It's just a little skin injury, just go back and bandage it!" ”
"No way!" Ye Qingxue brushed away Chen Mingyuan's hand, and saw that the back inside was already blood-red, and then tears came down, and said sadly: "The blood has penetrated the clothes, this is still called nothing!" ”
As she spoke, Ye Qingxue carefully picked up Chen Mingyuan's T-shirt.
Chen Mingyuan was left to her, and when she opened it, Ye Qingxue burst into tears, and there was a scar on Chen Mingyuan's back that was seven or eight inches high, swollen into purple, and the skin and flesh turned outward, oozing blood.
"What to cry about! It's already a lot of luck to be able to escape a catastrophe today and save this life, so let's laugh secretly! Chen Mingyuan squeezed out a smile on his face, if it wasn't for the loose shoelaces and being discovered by Ye Qingxue today, he happened to squat in front of the stainless steel trash can, it must have been unpredictable.
Ye Qingxue took out a tissue from her bag, and while helping Chen Mingyuan wipe the blood on her back, she cried, wiped the blood, and wiped her tears, but wiped it around, and the blood on Chen Mingyuan's back was not wiped clean, but wiped a lot of blood on her face.
"Those people are coming at me, and they have nothing to do with you!" ”
Ye Qingxue first nodded subconsciously, and then shook her head vigorously.
Chen Mingyuan ignored her, picked up the phone and dialed Yin Qingning's phone again, asking him to come and pick up Ye Qingxue.
Putting down the phone, Chen Mingyuan walked over there, but as soon as he turned around, Ye Qingxue behind him screamed in shock, "Your back is injured!" ”
Ye Qingxue followed, stretched out her hand and was about to lift Chen Mingyuan's clothes to see the injury, she came back to her senses now, remembering that Chen Mingyuan's stick was to push herself away, and she was forced to take it.
"It's okay!" Chen Mingyuan pressed Ye Qingxue's hand, "It's just a little skin injury, just go back and bandage it!" ”
