Chapter Thirty-Nine: Jealousy is born of murderous intent
Miao Ling deliberately didn't mention it, took it off the drawing board, and made a gesture of appreciation, "Since it's so good, I'll go and frame it as a souvenir." ”
"That's not a rush." Huai Xin said, "Wait for me to make a pair and frame it together to see who is the best." ”
"You can also sketch?"
Huaixin made a proud appearance, "What's so difficult about that, but, in my opinion, this figure painting has to belong to Danqing, so I'll compare Danqing with your sketch." ”
Miao Ling smiled, how could she not know that Huaixin didn't know how to paint at all, but he refused to lose to her in front of her, he was so competitive, he would definitely not lose to a woman.
Huaixin Bingzhu reviewed the official documents, and Miao Ling accompanied him to read a book, both of them were quiet, no one spoke, only comforted each other with their eyes when they were tired. Huaixin doesn't like coffee, and Miao Ling also sent Xing'er to rest early, so she personally contracted to make tea.
Somehow, Miao Ling fell asleep unconsciously, and when she woke up, she found herself on the warm floor of the study, covered with a blanket, and Huaixin had long since disappeared.
Miao Ling got up to clean up the desk, but saw a pair of wonderful pens on the neat table. The painting shows a lazy beauty lying on her side, her black hair poured down on her shoulders, her hands half circled, and her head resting on her arms, which has a unique charm. There is also a poem on the right side of the painting, "It is as white as snow on the mountain, as bright as the moon among the clouds." Wen Jun has two intentions, so he decided to break up. Today's wine fight, Mingdan ditch head. On the ditch, the ditch water flows from east to west. Sad and miserable, there is no need to cry when you get married. I wish to have one heart, and the white head will not be separated. The bamboo pole is curling, and the fish tail is so curling! Men are heavy-minded, why use money knives! ”
Kong Miaoling was in a good mood, had breakfast, decided to go out for a walk, Huaixin prepared for her very thoughtfully, all the food and clothing were according to what she liked, and spent one night painting and writing poems for her, the sentence "I wish to have one heart, the white head is not separated" simply said her mind, so that all the knots in her heart were opened, since she is already his one-hearted person, what does it matter if she has a reputation or not?
It's raining in Japan, and there aren't many people on the streets, but Myorei is full of interest. They first went to a suit shop and ordered two sets of black and blue for Huaixin, and then Miao Ling took a fancy to a bow tie, which matched the black suit very well, so they asked for it together. Out of the suit shop, passing a small flower shop, because of the rain, there was no one inside. Miao Ling was just in the right mood, so she went in with her temperament to see, and the person who saw the store was a young girl, with a thick and long braid, and two big eyes like copper bells flashed back to her, which immediately reminded her of Ah Hua.
When I think of Ah Hua, I think of my mother-in-law, this is the person who will make her cry. Although their deaths were not because of her, Miao Ling finally felt that this matter was inseparable from her.
The girl saw that Miao Ling was dressed extraordinarily, and guessed that it was the wife of a rich man, so she was busy introducing her, what was flown from Europe, and what was newly cultivated, but she was used to saying it, and her mouth never stopped.
Miao Ling was always smiling, but Xing'er had already been impatient to hear it, and the unhappiness immediately appeared on her palm-sized face, and secretly glared at the girl from time to time. The girl ignored her, knowing who she was. Miao Ling didn't have the idea of buying flowers, but looking at the girl's positive energy, she bought a bouquet of the most expensive tulips in her store.
Xing'er complained unhappily when she went out, "It's not good for Madame to go to a flower shop, and she prefers to buy her family." ”
Miao Ling asked rhetorically, "What, her family is not good?" ”
Xing'er said, "I know that business is not good at a glance, and it is easy to meet a wife with a bodhisattva heart like you. ”
Miao Ling smiled, "Although you are a subordinate, you are from a large family, and you have never experienced what hunger is like, but I understand." ”
Xing'er hurriedly covered her mouth, eager to go and shave her ears immediately. Unexpectedly, Miao Ling said again, "Also, I have told you many times, don't call me Madame, something will happen sooner or later." ”
Xing'er didn't understand, but she didn't dare to defend herself anymore because of Fang Cai's offense, so she had to lower her head and say "oh" stupidly.
Miao Ling then picked a few seasonal ones at a stall selling fruits, paid and left. Unexpectedly, the fruit seller suddenly pushed her from the side, she was unsteady, staggered a few steps, and then heard a gunshot ringing in her ears, and the bullet was only a fraction of a minute away from her ear. Xing'er also turned white with fright, and everything in her hand was spilled all over the ground.
But that wasn't the end of it, a car came from the intersection head-on, and it was speeding in her direction. Miao Ling suddenly felt bad, in a hurry, or the fruit seller raised his hand to push the stall, grabbed Miao Ling and hid in the nearby alley, the car hit her but was pierced by the nails on the rear tire.
It was clear that the bullet and the car were coming at her, but who wanted her life?
"Miss should be more careful in the future." The man who spoke was none other than the fruit seller.
"Who are you?" Miao Ling looked at him very alertly.
The man took off his hat and tore off the fake beard on his chin, which caused Miao Ling to exclaim, "Little Si'er! ”
That person is Xiao Si'er, I haven't seen her for many days, Xiao Si'er is even taller than her, no wonder she didn't recognize it.
"Why did you come to Jingling? Where's your big brother Zhang? ”
Xiao Si'er grinned, revealing a mouthful of big white teeth, "What else Brother Zhang, Brother Lu told me everything about you." A lot of things happened after you left. But Brother Lu has told me not to tell you. ”
Miao Ling was puzzled, "But Brother Lu asked you to save me?" ”
Xiao Si'er nodded, "Sister Bell, you have to pay attention recently, don't go out, someone is going to kill you." ”
Miao Ling was not very surprised, "How do you know?" ”
"You don't need to know this, but it's a pity that Xiao Si'er can't keep her sister safe at all times, so my sister has to learn to protect herself."
Miao Ling couldn't help but laugh secretly, never thinking that one day he would be educated by the hairy boy.
"What about Brother Lu? Is he also in Jingling City? If so, why didn't he come to me? ”
Xiao Si'er seems to have something unspeakable, and he just refuses to say it. Miao Ling saw that he was so embarrassed, and he couldn't bear to force it, so he had to give up.
"Since you are here, I will treat you well."
"No need, sister, you better go back early, so as not to cause another incident."
Miao Ling listened to Xiao Si'er's words, and picked a road that few people knew to go to the pear orchard, Xiao Si'er always accompanied her, and waited for her to enter the garden before leaving.
Miao Ling guessed that Song Zhenzhen did it, but she felt that although Song Zhenzhen was willful, she didn't look like a person who dared to kill. But after thinking about it, apart from her, there is really no one else who has a motive to kill.
By nine o'clock in the evening, Huaixin still hadn't come back, and Miao Ling guessed that Xu was entangled in official business, and Huaixin was going to spend the night in the presidential palace and didn't come back, so he ordered Xing'er to lock the door. During the day, she didn't have any lingering palpitations, but she was worried about Huaixin's safety. At this time, in addition to the darkness, the night added a touch of mystery and unknown. Her instincts told her that it wasn't an ordinary night.
Miao Ling lay down for two hours, still not sleepy, tossing and turning in bed. She looked out the window and suddenly noticed that the lights outside were getting brighter and brighter, and the uneasiness in her heart became more and more intense.
"Apricot!" She called out to Apricot and got out of bed and got dressed.
As soon as I opened the door to the room, a smoky smell came to my nose. She knew that she was not good, so she hurriedly rushed downstairs and took a picture with Xing'er, who also came out of the room.
"Oh no, it's on fire!" Apricot covered her nose and shouted.
Miao Ling listened and hurriedly said, "It's not good, my painting!" ”
Ignoring Xing'er's dissuasion, Miao Ling turned around and ran to the study, putting the two paintings and the wedding scroll that had not yet been framed into her arms. But at this time, the fire was getting stronger and stronger, and it was no longer the shape of Fang Cai at all. Miao Ling only felt that the smoke was thick in his nose, and it became more and more difficult to breathe. was in trouble, and suddenly saw a person rushing in under the quilt, and in the panic, it was his voice that made Miao Ling recognize his identity.
"Brother Chengen!"
Cheng En didn't care to talk to her more, he threw the quilt casually, picked up the tea left on the table and poured it up, dragged Kong Miaoling through it, protected her under him, and raised his feet to go out. Unexpectedly, a rafter fell from above, and Cheng En retreated back in time to escape the catastrophe. Look at the fire again, it has burned to the second floor, the smoke is billowing out, the fire is shining, crackling, and falling down the rafter pillars one after another.
Cheng Enjian could no longer go back along the way he came, and only by finding another way could he save the lives of the two of them. Seung-eun looked around and stared at the window for a long time.
"Do you dare?"
Miao Ling understood what he meant, although this was only the second floor, but this house was high, and this second floor was equivalent to the third or even fourth floor of an ordinary house. And there wasn't any protective gear underneath, and I don't even remember if it was a grass wizard down there.
But for now, they have no choice but this path.
Miao Ling nodded firmly, "Dare!" ”
It was too late to say it, and as soon as Miao Ling said it, Cheng En hugged her and jumped down from the window.
That is, the kung fu of a moment, not the expected hard Bang Bang will fall to the ground, on the contrary, it is softer than the sofa at home.
Miao Ling gasped urgently, looking up at the night sky that was smoked without stars, and thought of Lu Chengen.
"Brother Chengen!" She turned over and knelt down to look at Lu Chengen, who was unconscious under the quilt with her eyes closed, and desperately called his name, secretly thinking in her heart: He can't be okay, can't be okay!
Shaken by her so hard, shouting, about a quarter of an hour, Cheng En let out a breath, coughed dryly, and opened his eyes slightly.
Seeing this, Miao Ling pounced on him with great joy, "I knew you would be fine, and I wouldn't allow you to be fine." ”
Cheng En coughed dryly, reached out to rub her hair, and said with a smile, "If something really happens to me, will you still follow me?" ”
Miao Ling's heart was suddenly shocked, and she stood up and said, "If something really happens to you, I will go to the underworld to apologize to you." ”
