16. Chapter 16
Shanhe and Jiangyu walked slowly along the river, and soon came to the port.
This is where the Red River and the Nam Kye River meet and flow into Vietnam, where the red and green rivers merge to form a colorful and fantastical picture.
Ha Dinh Port is a national first-class port, opposite to Lao Cai Province in Vietnam.
There are two China-Vietnam bridges, a railway bridge and a road bridge.
The China-Vietnam Railway Bridge was built in 1903 by the French and is the bridge leading to Vietnam with a historic meter-gauge railway. After the 1979 self-defense counterattack against Vietnam, the Sino-Vietnamese railway bridge was blown up, and many years later, China and Vietnam re-established diplomatic relations and reopened to traffic.
A century-old bridge also records the vicissitudes of history in the past century.
The China-Vietnam Highway Bridge is much younger, having been built in 2001. On the top of the bridge are four magnificent characters - China Heting. On the side of the bridge, there is also a national boundary monument, which was jointly established by China and Vietnam, and is the starting No. 1 of the Sino-Vietnamese national boundary monument.
At this moment, many tourists are taking pictures next to the border monument.
Shanhe asked Jiangyu: "Do you want to take a photo too?" ”
"No, you don't."
Shanhe didn't say anything more, walked a few steps forward, and his eyes turned and landed on the Heting Customs Building opposite the China-Vietnam Bridge.
A truck pulling goods came from the Vietnamese side and stopped in the open space in front of the bridge. Several uniformed anti-smuggling policemen came out of the customs building and conducted a comprehensive inspection of the truck, even under the vehicle.
Meng Wutong stands out among a group of anti-smuggling policemen because he is the best-looking and the tallest. When Meng Wutong was working, there were already many tourists holding cameras and pointing pictures at him. He heard the voice, turned around, and made a forbidden gesture to the tourists taking pictures, and his expression was very strict, meaning that pictures were not allowed.
Tourists don't stop.
Meng Wutong walked over and said in a very stern tone: "Please don't take pictures of us, otherwise we have the right to detain you." ”
The tourist then put down his camera in disdain.
Meng Wutong was about to go back, but suddenly found Shanhe standing next to him.
Shanhe only glanced at Meng Wutong lightly, and immediately looked away.
Meng Wutong couldn't say what he felt in his heart, but he felt very happy for a moment. He immediately walked around the fence and came to Shanhe's side, and asked a little excitedly, "Tangtang, are you...... How did you end up here? ”
"Nothing." Shanhe lowered his eyes, "Just casually strolling." ”
Jiang Yu stood a meter away, and when he saw Meng Wutong talking to Shanhe, he didn't speak, just looked at them quietly. Jiang Yu remembered this man, the man who appeared in Meimei on the day the cooperation agreement was signed. He didn't expect that this was an anti-smuggling policeman with a rather special profession. Jiang Yu still remembers that when he and Tang Xu left that day, Shanhe asked this man to go to her house at night, so ...... What exactly is the relationship between them?
Meng Wutong smiled, with two dimples on his cheeks, which looked very gentle and hearty, giving people the feeling of a spring breeze. "Just walk around and come to the customs, Tangtang, I'm very happy."
Shanhe had a cold face, "Don't get me wrong, I'm not here to see you." ”
Meng Wutong smiled and said, "Don't worry, I won't misunderstand." I just saw you and I was so happy. ”
Shanhe lowered his head and did not speak.
Meng Wutong just looked at her like this, with infinite joy and love in his eyes.
Jiang Yu had to admit that the anti-smuggling policeman in front of him was a very outstanding and eye-catching man, and he gave people a very warm feeling. Somehow, Jiang Yu felt a wave of irritability in his heart, which had never been seen before. All along, he never feels irritated by anything, no matter how big the difficulty is, he can always treat it with a calm mind, but what happened today? Why do you have such irritability in a row?
Shanhe raised his head and looked at Meng Wutong coldly, "Don't you have to go to work?" ”
Meng Wutong glanced at the truck, which had already been checked and drove away. His co-workers were giving him a thumbs up, as if cheering him on.
Shanhe also saw the gestures and movements of the other anti-smuggling policemen, and said calmly: "Your colleague seems to have misunderstood. ”
"It's okay, I'll explain it to them when I get back." Meng Wutong saw a thin sweat on her forehead, and asked with concern: "It's very hot outside, do you want to go to my office to blow the air conditioner and rest for a while?" ”
"No need, I'm here with a guest." She turned around and set her eyes on Jiang Yu.
Meng Wutong followed her gaze and let out a cry of surprise: "Is it him?" ”
Shanhe let out a "hmm".
"Didn't he break off his cooperation with you?"
"It's working together again."
Meng Wutong's eyes flashed slightly when he heard this.
Jiang Yu had already come to Meng Wutong's side and greeted him lightly: "Hello." ”
"Hello." Meng Wutong took the initiative to stretch out a hand, "My name is Meng Wutong." ”
Jiang Yu also stretched out his hand to shake him, "Jiang Yu." ”
The two did not let go of their hands immediately, they still held each other, their eyes facing each other, as if they were both probing each other, trying to find something in each other's eyes.
Shanhe felt that these two people were a little strange, they could hold hands for so long with a good handshake, could it be that they fell in love with each other?
Meng Wutong withdrew his hand first, smiled, and said, "Since you are Tangtang's guest, you are also my guest." If you need anything, just come to me for help. I work in the customs house, and you can find me just by saying my name. ”
Jiang Yu said indifferently: "Officer Meng is polite. ”
"It's not polite, the restaurant of Tangtang has a great impact after the last incident. I really appreciate your willingness to re-support her business. Meng Wutong said very sincerely, and there was no sense of hypocrisy.
"Cooperation is something that benefits both sides, and there is no support or support." Jiang Yu's tone was still very light.
Meng Wutong's gaze turned back to Shanhe, and said softly: "It's hot outside, it's not advisable to be outdoors for too long, it's better to go back early, worry about heat stroke." ”
Shanhe replied lukewarmly: "I know it myself." ”
Meng Wutong suddenly rested a hand on Shanhe's shoulder and sighed lightly, "Tangtang, I regret what happened that night." ”
Shanhe raised his head suddenly, his expression a little incredulous. What does he mean by that? Regret not doing it with her? But he hasn't always been a decent gentleman, how could he say such things now?
After Meng Wutong said this, he specially raised his head to look at Jiang Yu, and sure enough, he saw a trace of fluctuation in Jiang Yu's eyes.
Shanhe didn't respond to Meng Wutong's words, just gently brushed his hand away, "You're busy!" I'm leaving. ”
**
Since Jiangyu's SUV was still parked on the other side of Vietnam Street, Jiangyu and Shanhe had to walk back.
Meng Wutong's words just now did set off a little ripple in Jiang Yu's heart, and he suddenly wanted to know what the relationship between Shanhe and Meng Wutong was, they didn't look like lovers, and they didn't look like ordinary friends. However, this qiē obviously has nothing to do with him, so why should he care about this?
After getting into the car, the whirring cold air blew out, and Shanhe felt that the feeling of dryness and heat on his body had subsided a lot.
Jiangyu starts the vehicle and prepares to drive.
Shanhe said in surprise: "You don't wait for Tang Xu?" ”
"No, he'll go back himself."
Shanhe shrugged, and said in his heart that Tang Xu really went to prostitution, this stinky boy was so immodest at a young age. She suddenly said, "Manager Jiang, there is one thing I must explain clearly. You sue Tang Xu, don't hit Ami's idea, otherwise...... You know my means. ”
Jiang Yu looked stunned for a moment, and then nodded, "I know." ”
The vehicle was about to start, and Shanhe suddenly caught a glimpse of a familiar figure, and immediately shouted, "Wait a minute." ”
Jiang Yu was about to step on the accelerator, but when he heard this, he raised his foot again, "What's wrong?" ”
Shanhe didn't respond, just stared quietly at the middle-aged man not far away. The middle-aged man is short and fat, and there is a little Vietnamese girl next to him, and the two of them enter the alleys of Vietnam Street very affectionately, and the discerning person knows what to do at a glance.
The middle-aged man was Ami and Hui's father and her uncle.
Shanhe laughed mockingly, and suddenly felt a little happy in his heart. Seeing her uncle **, she didn't actually feel anything. But she hated her aunt, the sharp and mean woman, so when she saw her uncle betraying her aunt, a perverted pleasure rose in her heart.
Shanhe has no relatives in this world, her grandmother and uncle's family are her only relatives, but her uncle and aunt are not good to her grandmother and Ami, they only have money in their eyes, and Ah Hui's son who is not angry.
Jiang Yu saw that Shanhe's face was not very good, and there was a sneer on the corner of his mouth, and he asked: "What's wrong with you?" ”
"It's okay, you can drive!" Shanhe retracted his gaze, took a deep breath, and suppressed the depressed feelings in his heart. Why do these men like to prostitute so much? Her uncle is like this, Tang Xu is like this, and even the ...... next to her
Only Meng Wutong will not be like this, he is very upright, but she can't accept Meng Wutong. Shanhe lowered his eyes, not wanting Jiang Yu to see her messy mood at the moment.
**
That night, Shanhe finished the affairs of the hotel and drove home at ten o'clock.
After parking her car, she walked to the residential building where she lived. As she passed through a shadowy area, she was suddenly tapped on the shoulder. Her instinct told her that something was wrong, and that no one would suddenly come and pat her on the shoulder without saying a word at such a late hour.
Shanhe's footsteps only paused for a moment, and then he pulled out his legs and ran.
"Fuck, the stinky woman still dares to run." A rough male voice came from behind him, speaking in the local dialect.
The mountains and rivers didn't recognize this voice, and ran forward even more desperately. She knew that it was useless to call for help here, and that she had to run out of this shadowy area, but the man behind quickly caught up. She stopped suddenly, turned around, and swept her feet around the ground, and the man who caught up first was immediately tripped and fell to the ground by her.
"Fuck, the stinky bitch will hit you twice." The man who fell to the ground cursed in pain.
Shanhe didn't expect that there were two men chasing her behind her, she didn't even have a chance to speak, she was hit on the head, her eyes were dark, and she fell down directly.
