9. The first step of scumbag
The Tang Mansion is a combination of a Western-style villa and a Chinese-style courtyard, with a pointed light red roof in the European style, while the off-white pillars and round arched windows are typical of the Chinese style.
The cloister is meandering, precious flowers and trees can be seen everywhere, and the tall plane trees are full of life in the scorching summer sun. The bend of the cloister leaves a place of residual shade, coupled with the small bridge next to it, although it is artificially built, but it is also ingenious, and the whole environment is elegant and quiet.
However, the quiet atmosphere in the house was broken by the sound of hurried footsteps.
The servants in white shirts and black trousers kept shuttling through the corridor, their steps fast and urgent, but the order was tight, and they were all heading in the same direction.
There was an open space in front of the house, and when they reached it, the servants stopped, and walked slowly and lightly.
This place is surrounded by precious bonsai that have been neatly arranged in a row by the servants, which is rare to see on weekdays. The guests who came one after another couldn't help but smack their tongues, which shows the luxury of the Tang Mansion.
In this very open space, the first thing people see when they enter is a long red blanket that leads to the front of the altar.
On either side of the red carpet are orderly ceremonial tables, the tops are covered with expensive off-white fine cloth, and even the stools and chairs below are extravagantly paved, and next to each table are layers of transparent goblets with bright red liquid flowing slowly.
On the front of the ceremonial table are crumbling colorful balloons, such an atmosphere, such an arrangement, you can imagine how grand this banquet will be if it is officially held.
In a certain room, in front of the computer desk, people buried their heads and processed the text on the table, looking very busy with work, and occasionally moving the mouse on the table.
With white walls and many bookcases in the room, it is obvious that this is a study with layers of books at a glance.
Not far from the computer desk was the open window, the hanging beige curtains were tied on both sides, and the light of the lamp shone on the side face of the man, a very hard silhouette, a man in his prime about forty years old.
Although the face is ordinary, the frowning eyebrows on the forehead make people know at a glance that this person must always be in the upper position, so even the ordinary expression has a momentum of not being angry and self-imposing, and the occasional flash of essence in the eyes is terrifying.
There was an orderly knock on the door, and the people in the room made a sound without raising their heads.
"Come in"
With a snap, the door opened.
Tang Yuansheng waited for a while and raised his head when he didn't see anyone making a sound. Seeing the person coming, the frowning brows immediately relaxed, and the first smile appeared in his eyes, "Mr. Ji, Mrs. Ji ........."
Entering the door were a couple dressed in formal dresses who looked like they had been dressed up for a banquet, and their faces were strange, as if they were uneasy and guilty.
Seeing that the age is about the same as Tang Yuansheng, the woman in the husband and wife has a fair face, and it can be seen that she is usually well maintained, although she is past middle age, she can still see that she was a beauty when she was young, but at this time, the look on her face destroyed this beauty, and the expression on the face of the beautiful woman was exactly the same as her.
Looking at the faces of the couple, the middle-aged man at the table was suspicious, so he closed the text in his hand, put it aside, and got up from the chair and walked out.
When I approached them, I noticed that the expressions on the couple's faces were getting stranger and stranger.
Tang Yuansheng couldn't help but ask, "Mr. Ji, Mrs. Ji, are youβ"
Mrs. Ji couldn't help but glance at her husband who was standing next to her, and then at Tang Yuansheng, who was asking. His eyes were slightly uneasy, "Master Tang, we-we-"
Mrs. Ji opened her mouth to say something. But after repeating it several times, I couldn't say the whole thing. just pinched the white shell bag in his hand, and a touch of embarrassment appeared on his face.
Mrs. Ji's eyes moving back and forth were seen by Tang Yuansheng, but her face was silent.
He was not busy asking the reason, and said in a calm voice: "Mr. Ji, Mrs. Ji, what's wrong with you?" If there is anything difficult, tell me directly, my Tang family and your Ji family have always been good friends,...... Besides" The words paused slightly, his majestic face softened slightly, and he said sincerely: "You husband and wife have also been good friends of mine for many years, why should you be so polite, in my Tang family, there is no habit of treating friends badly, what is the matter, Mr. Ji, Mrs. Ji might as well say it directly." β
These words were really safe, but the faces of the Ji family and his wife were not softened by this, not only that, but after listening to Tang Yuansheng's words, their faces became even more ugly, even if the makeup on their faces was thick, they couldn't hide the pale color on Mrs. Ji's face.
The Ji couple showed such a strange expression, Tang Yuansheng's face suddenly became solemn, and he said tentatively: "Could it be that today's banquet, the servants are not well entertained?" β
"If this is the case, I will instruct the housekeeper to ask which servant it is, and dare to snub our Tang family's distinguished guest."
Tang Yuansheng made a gesture to make a phone call as he spoke, but as soon as he made a move, he was held down.
"Don't, don't, Master Tang, don't call."
Tang Yuansheng took a deep look at them.
Being stared at with such eyes by the leaders of the Tang Clan, even the Ji couple couldn't help but feel the pressure doubled, and the atmosphere in the room froze for a while.
In the end, Mr. Ji spoke, looked at Tang Yuansheng's sharp eyes, and said with a wry smile: "Master Tang, if things are as you said, it will be much simpler, and our husband and wife will not be so troubled, butββ"
Speaking of this, he exchanged glances with Mrs. Ji behind him, and a touch of shame appeared on his face. Gritted his teeth and continued: "I won't tell you, what worries our couple isβ"
"What the hell? Mr. Ji, I, Tang someone, am not an unreasonable person, if you have any difficulties, you can speak directly, why bother to spit out? β
Anyway, the matter has already happened, and it is better to say it so that the Tang family can be prepared, this matter is the fault of the Ji family.
Tang Nan followed Libai away.
But this sentence was no less than a β‘β‘ burst, and the room was suddenly silent, and the couple hesitated.
"Mr. Ji, what did you say?" Tang Yuansheng couldn't help but wonder if he had heard it wrong just now, and looked at the Ji couple with an incredulous look.
Mr. Ji's forehead was in a cold sweat at this time, and Mrs. Ji pinched him hard behind him. He could only withstand the huge pressure and explain dryly: "Leave him, he, he is going to the hospital." It just so happened that there was a patient in their hospital today who had a temporary hemorrhage and had to be operated on immediately, Master Tang, you also know that human life is at stake, and that patient is usually in charge of Libai, so it's-"
"What about Donnan?"
"As soon as he left Bai, Tang Nan left with him."
As soon as he finished saying this, Tang Yuansheng's face suddenly darkened to the bottom.
"The banquet is about to begin, he, he ......"
There was anger in his eyes, and at this moment, Tang Yuansheng was angry to the extreme, his chest rose and fell violently, and he couldn't help but scold in his mouth.
"This bold son, son of a bold"
The invitations have been sent, and the guests who come are all well-known figures in Qingcheng, and the mainstream media of the whole city are here?
Where is he going to put the Tang family's face on?
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦ I'm the dividing line........................
On the wide asphalt road, several black private cars drove at great speed.
"Grandma, what kind of place is the Tang family?"
"Also, Father, Father, and Big Brother, will they like me?"
"My good grandson, why are you worried about this? Your ability to come back safely is a great joy worthy of the joy of everyone in the Tang family. You have suffered so much outside over the years, grandma and your father are too late to make up for you, as for your eldest brother, you will naturally know when you arrive at the Tang family. β
The old lady of the Tang family paused unnaturally, rubbed the young man's head, and said with a smile: "Who wouldn't like you?" My little Aqing is so good, who in the Tang family dares not to dislike you, grandma is the first to disagree, you are the blood of the Tang family, grandma and my own grandson. β
"Then who do I like more, my eldest brother and grandma?"
The delicate young man in the car snuggled up to the old lady of the Tang family with a soft face, and the young man bent his head as if he asked casually, his eyes innocent.
The old lady didn't reply, just squinted and smiled. As if what a stupid question this is.
"My second young master, what are you worried about? What are you afraid of when you go back to your own home, we should be upright. If a villain dares to bully the second young master, just sue Sister SΓΉ Ying me, I can't do it, isn't there an old lady behind you to support you? Sister Ying glanced at the old lady and said half-jokingly and half-seriously.
"Yes, yes, grandma will support you, see who dares to bully my own grandchildren, even if it's your eldest brother."
"Grandma, Sister Ying is like this, grandma, you are also-"
The young man was teased by everyone, his face flushed, his eyes flashed with embarrassment, but he said in a stubborn tone: "Grandma, I don't want anyone to support me!" I'm tough, no one wants to bully me. β
Hehe...... Everyone only regarded it as a joke of a teenager, but ignored the seriousness in their eyes.
The joyful laughter in the car was continuous, intermittently heard outside the car.
On the same road, not far from the front, there was a car.
It was extremely fast, and it quickly overtook the car next to him, and the trees kept receding, and it seemed that the owner of the car had something particularly urgent, so the speed of the car kept increasing.
What is that, who is laughing, laughing so joyfully, and purely, that one unconsciously searches.
"Libai, what are you looking at? Be careful, we're still driving! β
The trapped mind was suddenly awakened by the companion next to him, and his hand clenched the steering wheel. When he turned his head, he revealed an extremely handsome face, with deep eye sockets and a high nose bridge.
He looked at the person sitting in the passenger seat, his thin lips pursed slightly, and his eyes were apologetic.
"Hmm"
But when Ji Libai turned around and wanted to find the laughter, the quiet atmosphere made him frown reflexively.
No, why is it gone--I can't find it, and a flash of loss suddenly flashes in my heart, and I don't even notice the owner of the body.
Looking at the scenery flashing outside the car window, Ji Libai lowered his eyes slightly and couldn't help but chuckle.
What's wrong with him, is he stunned? I actually shook my head at a laugh.
The same young man was sitting next to him, but compared to the handsomeness of the man who was driving, he was more of a kind of evil handsome, with a pair of phoenix eyes that revealed countless romances, which made people love and hate.
Tang Nan looked at Ji Libai and laughed at the same time, and said in a half-helpless and half-doting tone, "Are you tired of driving, you!" I said I'll drive, don't you say no, I still have the energy to drive after such a long time of surgery! Let you drive the car, actually in a daze. I won't dare let you drive next time you say anything. β
Hearing Tang Nan's series of blaming words, he just smiled faintly and turned to drive seriously.
Who is smiling so happily that one can't help but wonder what kind of person it is?
His words did not attract the slightest attention from the person who was driving, although he had long been accustomed to this situation, but looking at Ji Libai's cold and hard face, there was still a trace of disappointment in his eyes.
When will he discover his heart? He really didn't want to wait, Tang Nan's dark eyes crossed a dark look.
The boy leaned on the car window and looked at the scenery outside through the transparent glass, the beige sunlight cast a circle of light on the boy's flawless face, and his eyes were pure and clean.
There were a lot of cars outside but the speed was slow like a snail, and when he saw that the car he was sitting in threw off a peer car, the young man's eyes brightened a little more, but there was a car behind.
The owner of that car, and the familiar number plate, are really damn missed!
Scold! The corner of the young man's mouth chuckled, but his eyes were fixed on the person reflected in the front car mirror, revealing a trace of calculation. How could he not be familiar with that car, in his previous life, it was this car that brought him back to the murderer who had already left Qingcheng, and then lost two lives.
The moment the front and rear vehicles met, two different pairs of eyes met.
The boy chuckled at the man, his clear color could not be concealed, and his dense eyelashes drooped slightly, leaving only a narrow and seductive shadow.
The sun was shining warmly outside, but the darkness under the eyes was spreading.
Ji Libai looked at those clear eyes at the moment when his eyes met, and suddenly thought of that seductive smile, and couldn't help but stare at the young man's beautiful appearance, and his heartbeat suddenly lost half a beat.
The car drifted away, and the young man's flawless face still had a pure and seductive smile, but his eyes were full of bitter hatred.
Ji Libai, Tang Nan
I am back
The loss of a qiΔ, the pain I have suffered
I'm going to pay it all back!
"Oops! Be careful! My second young master, this is the only photo of your eldest brother and his sweetheart in the family. Sister Ying looked at the photo of the young man in a lump of hands with a painful heart.
"Oops, I didn't mean to, Aunt Ying!" The young man said pitifully.
When the photo is spread out, you can still see two men with different styles, they are holding hands and standing in the shade of the greenery, they are so matched, and they are really happy!
