Chapter 434: Coffee on the Island
The quiet environment gave me a sense of purity, and when the beautiful piano sounded, Luo Zhaoyang made people's hearts reverberate, and he held the cup tightly with both hands, as if he was worried that the cup would fall.
Luo Zhaoyang's nervousness did not come from the housekeeper's last phone call, but the video he sent to himself, in the video, although he did not see Ru Xin in any danger, but that also proved that they had begun to target Ru Xin, as for whether they had taken measures against Ru Xin now, that was what he was most worried about.
Wang Meixin has eliminated the places where Liu Ruxin appeared one by one on the scenes in the video, Luo Zhaoyang hopes that Wang Meixin can find more clues, so that when he talks to that mysterious person, he can have more chips, and he can also better understand what kind of enmity this person has with him.
As the piano stopped, an old man dressed in a Tang costume slowly appeared at the door of the café, his jet-black hair and his face that did not match his face made it even more noticeable.
"Hello sir, may I ask a few people." The waiter in the restaurant stepped forward and asked politely, for such an old man, with their years of experience, he felt that the old man who came in was either rich or expensive, so they had more smiles on their faces, because then they felt that the next tip might be more optimistic.
When his gaze fell on Luo Zhaoyang's body, he waved his hand to the waiter, and then said, "No need, I have already made an appointment." At this moment, he didn't seem to come to negotiate with people at all, but like he came to meet old friends.
"Is that him?" Luo Zhaoyang met the housekeeper's gaze, for such an old man, Luo Zhaoyang didn't look like a traitorous person from that angle, that expression, even if he looked like a big traitor, so he didn't believe that this person was the one who called and threatened him.
"Are you ......?" Luo Zhaoyang stood up and greeted politely, although the person in front of him was indeed an old man, which was completely in line with all these factors, but such a strange old man, a person who had never crossed paths, he couldn't understand what kind of hatred he had with him, he had to come up with such a way to threaten himself, and he couldn't understand why he wanted to beat Liu Ruxin's idea.
The housekeeper was not in a hurry for Luo Zhaoyang's question, let alone immediately showed his body, under his two thick eyebrows, the black and white eyeballs in his two big eyes looked particularly energetic, and his gaze at Luo Zhaoyang made Luo Zhaoyang feel uncomfortable, as if there was some kind of itchy feeling of insect bite on his body.
The housekeeper stretched out his hand and motioned for Luo Zhaoyang to sit, then turned to the waiter and said, "Bring me a glass of boiled water." ”
"Okay, sir, wait a minute." The waitress stepped back, and the smile on her face disappeared the moment she turned around.
"Sir, may I ask ......?"
"I'm the one who called you, my surname is Bai, if you want, you can call me Bai Ye, but I think in front of you, I don't have such an honor." The old man still had a smile on his face, and his smile was very different from the kind of treachery he had just given Luo Zhaoyang on the phone.
"Is that you?" Luo Zhaoyang was surprised by the old man's answer, but he was more concerned about what happened to Ru Xin with this old man.
"Yes, it's me, isn't it a surprise?" The old man tidied up his clothes, and he didn't pay attention to Luo Zhaoyang's angry gaze at him, his sense of confidence that was about to explode made Luo Zhaoyang feel vulnerable.
"What happened to Ru Xin? Where is she now, what is there I coming to me, don't talk to women. Luo Zhaoyang shook the table, and the whole person stood up, startling the waiter who came with the water, if it wasn't for her training, it would not be strange that she would have to fall down.
Because breakfast has passed in the restaurant, and the lunch time has not yet arrived, it is a little deserted, but Luo Zhaoyang's slap on the table has already shocked everyone's attention, and in front of everyone's eyes, Luo Zhaoyang is a little embarrassed except for anger.
"If you have something to say, sit down." The old man stretched out his hand to Luo Zhaoyang again, his friendly expression made Luo Zhaoyang a little embarrassed, but when he thought about Ru Xin's safety, his embarrassment disappeared all at once.
Under the eyes of everyone and under the beckoning of the housekeeper, Luo Zhaoyang sat down awkwardly, but the two hands that were holding the table tightly wanted to break the neck of this old man at any time.
"I have no enmity with you in the near future, and I have no grudges in the future, why do you want to harm Ru Xin and them." Luo Zhaoyang's eyes approached the housekeeper and asked, he wanted to cover up this mystery as soon as possible.
After the old man took the waiter's water, he took out a hundred-dollar bill from his pocket, put it on the plate in the service, and then said to the waiter: "We are talking about something, can you let others stop disturbing us." ”
"No problem, you can always call me if you need anything." The waiter looked at the big bill on the plate, and her heart was secretly happy, although the glass of water was far from worth so much money, but such a tip already made her feel that she was not looking at the wrong person.
Looking at the waiter's invitation, the housekeeper tasted the water in the cup shallowly, and then said slowly: "I don't know if you are interested in listening to the story, before I make a request, I hope you can listen to it well, it may be helpful to you." ”
"I'm not interested in your story, I just want to know what you asked me to come here for, what do you want to talk to me about?" Luo Zhaoyang was not interested in listening to the old man's story at the moment, he felt that it was not that he was delaying his time now, but that he was trying to delay his own time.
"You really don't want to know?" Guan Ai asked again, and there was still a kind of questioning and suspicion in his words.
"I don't want to know, I don't have anything to talk to you about." Luo Zhaoyang confirmed again.
And as soon as he finished speaking, his mobile phone on the desktop immediately rang again, and the phone displayed was Liu Ruxin's call.
The phone made Luo Zhaoyang both surprised and scared, and the hand holding the mobile phone didn't dare to press the answer button, he was worried that the voice coming out of the phone was not Liu Ruxin's voice, and he was even more afraid that Ruxin was injured at the moment.
"You listen to the phone first, let's talk later." The old man said politely, stretching out his hand to encourage Luo Zhaoyang to answer.
The old man's calmness made Luo Zhaoyang's ominous premonition even stronger, and at this moment he began to suspect that this phone call was made by the old man to demonstrate to him, thinking of proving to him once again that Liu Ruxin was in his hands.
The ringtone of the mobile phone rang in the restaurant, everyone stopped what they were doing, all their eyes fell on Luo Zhaoyang's mobile phone, and they seemed to be waiting for the ringtone to end.
"Take it, it's okay, I have time." The old man looked out through the thick floor-to-ceiling glass window, and said again, because he knew that Luo Zhaoyang had come to Shangdao Coffee alone according to his request, which proved that everything he had done was effective.
Luo Zhaoyang was under the urging of everyone's eyes and the housekeeper, his fingers slowly flicked the answer button on the screen, and when Liu Ruxin's anxious voice came from the other end of the phone, Luo Zhaoyang's heart that was hung high finally fell, and Luo Zhaoyang took a deep breath.
"Zhaoyang, what's the matter? Why do you call me so much? Liu Ruxin asked anxiously on the other end of the phone.
In the past, even if Luo Zhaoyang thought about himself, he wouldn't be like this, but now looking at the call reminder that has not stopped, Liu Ruxin is worried that something happened to Luo Zhaoyang, and she begins to regret that she shouldn't come here, because in this underground parking lot, the mobile phone always has no signal.
"Where the hell have you been? I haven't picked it up for a long time, are you okay, where are you now, I'll pick you up right away. Luo Zhaoyang listened to Liu Ruxin's anxiety, he seemed even more anxious, the anger that evolved because of worry made Liu Ruxin fully feel it on the phone, but she didn't know what Luo Zhaoyang's worry had to do with herself, after all, she didn't want to have no signal on the mobile phone.
"I'm not thinking about buying you some daily necessities by the way, by the way, I will buy you a few vegetables, who knows that when I get to the parking lot, the car has a flat tire, I won't change it myself, and the mobile phone has no signal, and when I finish all this, it's over early in the morning, what can I do." Liu Ruxin's inexplicable blame for Luo Zhaoyang, she felt somewhat aggrieved.
"You go shopping, no one does anything to you, are you safe now?" Luo Zhaoyang was still doubting Liu Ruxin's words, his hanging ears were quietly listening to whether there was a strange voice on the other end of the phone, and he was wondering if Liu Ruxin was perfunctory with such words because there were people around him at this moment.
"What's wrong with you? I'm really fine, my car just drove out of the parking lot, so I'll call you. Liu Ruxin felt that Luo Zhaoyang was a little inexplicable, and she even began to wonder if Luo Zhaoyang had lived in Qingkai for too long and hadn't seen her for a long time, so she missed herself too much.
"It's okay, you call Meixin right now and tell her your location, so I'll be relieved." Luo Zhaoyang said as he turned his gaze to the old man who was still smiling, at this moment he couldn't figure out what this old man wanted to do, he couldn't understand why he asked himself to do so many things, since he didn't arrest Liu Ruxin, then why he didn't want to meet him at the subway station, and he had to ask himself to come to Shangdao Coffee.
A series of questions, one by one, puzzled questions floated in Luo Zhaoyang's mind, for the completely strange old man in front of him, Luo Zhaoyang really had no other way than to wait for his answer.
