Chapter 167: Thousands of Miles Away, Coming for You!
Chapter 167 Thousands of miles away, here for you!
Ancient wood for the bed, sandalwood curling, all the late Qing Dynasty buildings and furniture, antique, the villa in the sky, has a unique charm. On the tea table of dragon sandalwood, there are six teacups with lop ears, glazed rendering, painted and painted, which is also a popular style in the Qing Dynasty.
A middle-aged man in his forties, holding a teacup in his hand, the tea in the cup is overflowing, steaming, the best Da Hong Pao in early autumn, is his favorite, light, but does not lose the fragrance of tea, there is no strong taste of evening tea like rouge, which is also the reason why his taste of tea has remained unchanged for 20 years.
The man's expression was solemn, and between his eyebrows, there was a majestic momentum, and his eyes were like thunder and lightning, as if a glance could make people tremble. The man took a sip of the big red robe, his expression gradually became solemn, and he muttered, "It should be about the same." β
"Knock knockβ"
There was a knock on the door, and the man spoke, "Come in." β
An old man with a medicine box on his back walked in lightly from outside the door, with a hint of flattery on his face, this person was the old man surnamed Lin who had just treated Murong Wanyu's mother.
"What happened to Ruoshi's condition?" The middle-aged man asked slowly.
"The second lady's condition is afraid that it will not last for more than a month. Her condition is unheard of in my life, and it is rare. From a medical point of view, the second lady is not fatal, but her body is so weak that ordinary people can't imagine it. The condition has gradually deteriorated over the years, and it is extremely difficult to maintain it until now. Rotten and has done his best. I hope that the third young master will mourn. β
"I tried my best, I tried my best. Oh, yes, yes, how can I reward you? The middle-aged man said with a light smile.
"The old man doesn't ask for a reward, the Murong family has given the old man enough." The old man surnamed Lin lowered his head and said, as if he was full of awe and fear for the man in front of him. In the entire Murong family, except for the head of the family and a few elders, the third young master in front of him was the most feared.
"Well, even if you are a little conscious, let's go, the Murong family will no longer need you in the future. There are five million in this card. The man said, taking out a gold card from his bosom and throwing it on the coffee table.
The old man surnamed Lin was shocked, but there was a storm in his heart, could it be that the third young master was going to do something to him?
"Don't be afraid, I'm not at the point of madness, you have indeed done a lot for the Murong family, and you know too many things, leaving is your best destination. I don't want to see you again, you should understand. β
The middle-aged man still spoke indifferently, but the old man surnamed Lin was already quite scared, once the third young master became angry, then he might not be able to leave.
"Thank you Third Young Master, the old decay will never appear again in the future, Lin Yuan has been dead from this moment on." Lin Yuan said in horror.
"Go ahead." The middle-aged man waved his hand, seeming a little impatient. Lin Yuan hurriedly took the bank card and left quickly.
In the room, it became silent again, the silence was outrageous, the middle-aged man's eyes were like arrows, extremely sharp, tightly holding the blue and white porcelain teacup, 'bang', the teacup was broken, and the tea was also splashed on the ground, and the anger in the middle-aged man's eyes was getting stronger and stronger.
"Why don't you choose me, why! Even if you die, do you have to defend that dead ghost like jade? I'm not as good as my second brother. Ruoshi, you are really ruthless. β
The middle-aged man slowly closed his eyes, his eyes about to split, but he never left a single tear.
"Don't blame me for being ruthless, Ruoshi, you forced me."
Outside the villa, Murong Wanyu's pretty face was pale, as if every step up the stairs made her extremely painful, but the fact must always be faced, her mother's condition has deteriorated, and it is even impossible to have any hope of survival, although Lin Yuan's predecessor is not a divine doctor from a family of doctors and Taoists, but his medical skills are also unparalleled in the world, he has done his best for the Murong family for decades, and even his hands are helpless, his mother may really be about to come to the end of her life, for Murong Wanyu, in this world, There was only one mother who was true to her. My father is dead, and in the eyes of the family, he is just a tool that can be used casually, who will have mercy?
Every step Murong Wanyu walked quite hard, less than twenty meters away, but she walked for a full five minutes, tears flowed, when she stood in front of her mother's door, she quietly wiped away her tears, and put on a smiling face again, but it looked extremely far-fetched.
When the door was opened, there was a beautiful woman over forty years old lying on the bed, but her hair was already gray, and her face was dull, but from its outline, it was still difficult to hide her peerless face, almost eight points similar to Murong Wanyu, her pale face was full of smiles at the moment, and it seemed that it was a relief for her.
"Mom."
Murong Wanyu found that the moment she spoke, tears flowed disobediently, looking at her mother's emaciated body and pale face, Murong Wanyu couldn't suppress the sadness in her heart at all, and couldn't control the tears in her eyes, she didn't want her mother to worry, but she still couldn't hold back after all.
"Silly boy, why are you crying again? Crying like a little flower cat, see who dares to ask you, hehe. β
Liu Ruoshi said with a smile, the cheeks that should have been as delicate as light have already appeared wrinkles, and she is naturally beautiful, and she can't avoid the tempering of the years and the depression of her condition.
"No one wants me, I'll always be by your side. Mother. β
Murong Wanyu sat on the edge of the bed, holding her mother's hand tightly, but that hand was already thin and there was only one layer left, Murong Wanyu was extremely sad, but she could only endure it silently.
"Don't say stupid things, the Simon family, should be about to marry you, pity our mother and daughter, you are even more pitiful than your mother, from the moment you were born, you are destined to become a victim of the family, your mother is useless, she can't protect you. cough cough-" Liu Ruoshi stroked her daughter's sideburns, her eyes were extremely lonely, there are some things, she is a woman, she can't control it at all, from the moment her man died, her heart was already dead, if there was no concern, if it wasn't for her daughter alive, she would have followed her man a long time ago.
"Mom, don't say it. You have to recuperate, and when you get better, I will take you to see Qingcheng Luohu. Murong Wanyu didn't want her mother to say more, watching her painful cough was even more uncomfortable than a needle pricking her heart.
"Okay, okay, don't say it, you don't have to comfort me, my own body knows it very well, I have dreamed several times that your father came to pick me up, but I haven't watched you get married, I feel uneasy. This is my last wish, and the other is that your father's death has remained a mystery until now, and if I could not have known it before I died, I would have to go down and ask him. β
"Mom, don't talk nonsense, Dad must hope that you can live well in the spirit of heaven, and you will definitely be able to see me get married."
Murong Wanyu comforted her mother, her father's death has always been a pain in her mother's heart, and even the death is unknown, no one knows how he died, and her mother was discouraged, so she was bedridden eighteen years ago, and her illness was nearly twenty years. Although she was reluctant, she must see her marry before her mother leaves. At that moment, all stubbornness and persistence were no longer important, Murong Wanyu was unwilling to marry the playboy of the Simon family, but she didn't want to see her mother die. Maybe seeing her get married, her mother will feel at ease.
Murong Wanyu is a strong and stubborn woman, but she can't resist the torture of fate, her life is troubled, although she is only in her early twenties, and a good life awaits her, but she was born in a big family, she is destined to become a victim of friendship between families, after her father's death, her mother and her in the family have no status and right to speak at all.
When Murong Wanyu thought that she was going to marry someone she didn't like at all and was a useless person, she suddenly thought of someone, and the man with a bad smile but no lust or guts came to her mind, Su Chen.
Murong Wanyu has become a good friend with Su Chen, she is even more difficult to say, she wanted to use herself as a trading product, as long as she can only be her own mother, then she is his person, but she didn't expect that in the face of her own worldly beauty, Su Chen was indifferent, which made her evaluate Su Chen very highly, and the young man who can sit still and stick to his true self without being chaotic is like a rare man, and in the face of temptation, he is not the slightest temptation. Even Murong Wanyu wondered if she really didn't have a little charm.
At the scene in front of the bar, even she couldn't believe that she would block the potentially fatal bullet for a man, was it really to make him owe herself a favor? He once said that if he needed help, even if it was thousands of miles away, he would definitely come.
"What's wrong with you? Wan Yu. Seeing her daughter stunned, Liu Ruoshi asked, in the past, it was rare to see her thinking about something like this, and she was so focused, could it be that she was in love? Liu Ruoshi didn't ask much, some things, even if they exist, are best buried in the hourglass of time.
"Oh, nothing, I think of a man, Mom, maybe he can cure you." Murong Wanyu didn't have much hope for Su Chen, but that was her last straw, if she didn't try, then she would be uneasy for the rest of her life. Even if a dead horse is a live horse doctor, he must try to see if he can cure his mother.
"Forget it, don't bother, girl, your filial piety, Mom knows, even Senior Lin is helpless, who can cure my illness? Don't bother people, even if the miracle doctor is reincarnated, I'm afraid it won't save me, hehe. Liu Ruoshi's heart is dead, so she doesn't want her daughter to toss for her anymore.
"There is one thing, my mother wants to tell you, in the future, you have to be careful of your third uncle."
Murong Wanyu looked at her mother in surprise, the third uncle treated her as his own, even if it was his own child, it was nothing more than that, but today his mother actually said such a thing.
"Mom, what do you meanβ"
"It's nothing, it's just telling you to be careful, remember that no one will be nice to you for no reason, and the only person you can trust in this world is yourself."
Liu Ruoshi said categorically, looking at her daughter with a solemn expression.
"I see, Mom." Murong Wanyu didn't want to disturb her mother's rest, so she chatted a few words and left her mother's room.
Murong Wanyu sat on the steps, looking at the night that was gradually falling on the horizon, the sunset was sinking, clutching her mobile phone tightly, not knowing whether to call Su Chen or not, in the end, she still wanted to fight for her mother for the last chance.
"Su Chen, can you come to me? I want you to see my mother, everyone has seen it, and no one can make my mother better. And the doctor of our Murong family also said that my mother may only have one month to live. β
"Okay, where are you?" Su Chen replied simply.
"Qingcheng Mountain." Murong Wanyu was a little excited in her heart.
"I'll be there early tomorrow morning."
"Thank you, Su Chen." Murong Wanyu said.
"As I said, I owe you a favor, and there's more than one."
Su Chen said with a smile, he knew that Murong Wanyu must be in a very bad mood now.
Thousands of miles away, here for you! That's his promise.
