Chapter 23

Part23 "Yaoyao, don't you want your dad to be released on medical parole?" โ€

Xia Zhiyao didn't like the smell of disinfectant water in the hospital, and when Lu Nanteng drove her downstairs to the community, the two sat quietly for a while.

The night was lonely, and the leaves of the sycamore trees rustled.

Xia Zhiyao said: "Let's stop here." โ€

Lu Nanteng's heart was cut by a knife, the pain was terrible, his throat was astringent, and he even seemed to be dumb when he spoke. "I don't say yes. I've been waiting for you for so long, and it's hard to wait for you, Yaoyao, I can't let go. โ€

"After a long time, I will naturally let it go, just like I will always forget Gu Mingcheng one day."

"Please...... Don't be so cruel, can you? โ€

Xia Zhiyao turned his head to look at him very calmly, she could see the gloomy sadness in his eyes, and his love was not a pretense. "Actually, you expected this day to happen, right? That's why you ask to get married so soon, and you're afraid of long nights and dreams. But, Nan Teng, have you really thought about it? If I marry you and one day learn the truth, how will you let me deal with myself? How can I be worthy of my dad? As she spoke, her eyes began to heat up again.

Because he was too greedy, he would rather risk the secret being revealed in the future and wanted to marry her, he shamefully wanted to hold her hand, and even fantasized that God would not favor him with a piece of sincerity to atone for his sins. "I'm sorry."

Xia Zhiyao's hand was already resting on the door handle, "What's the use?" Nothing can be changed. "The damage has been done, and he can't fill the crack by saying a thousand or ten thousand sorry words.

She pushed the door open and went down.

Lu Nanteng's eyes were slightly red, and his big palms were tightly gripping the steering wheel, and the protrusions of the green tendons on the back of his hands were enough to show his bad mood at the moment. But with a difference of three seconds, he also pushed the door open, and stepped forward in three steps and two steps to pull her arm back.

When Xia Zhiyao was hugged and imprisoned in his warm arms, some good memories of the past came back to him. She had never doubted that this man was reliable and trustworthy, but from this day forward, they could only be strangers.

"Yaoyao, I beg you not to leave me. I apologize, I atone for my sins, and I will be good to you and Uncle Xia for the rest of my life! If you want to see my sister, let's go away, and I won't have anything to do with Yan Sunchen again! Please...... Don't leave me! Lu Nanteng was eager to catch her.

"Don't be stupid, there's no going back."

Xia Zhiyao raised his hands to push him, forcefully, Lu Nanteng refused to let go, and stubbornly hugged her. Xia Zhiyao frowned and increased his strength, bent his knees and kicked his key parts, he was in pain, relaxed his strength for a while, Xia Zhiyao turned around and left. Lu Nanteng insisted on catching up, encircled her, wrapped her whole body in his arms and kissed her with her head bowed. The kiss carried a kind of sadness and possessiveness, Xia Zhiyao's lips were gnawed by him, and his head was buzzing. She watched with a pair of eyes open as he closed his eyes on her lips, and her heart was desolate. She bit his tongue violently, and the smell of blood instantly attacked, she pushed Lu Nanteng away and slapped him with her backhand. "Don't make me hate you!"

Lu Nanteng was in great pain, standing in place in a daze, and could only let her disappear into her life.

*

At the same time, after Xiao Xun left, Gu Mingcheng felt that the empty box and his sad state of mind were too reflective, so he switched to a lively bar.

I drank too much wine, and the drunken ones still refused to leave one bottle after another.

There was a hot, bewitching-looking woman to talk to, but he didn't pay attention to it, but the woman seemed to be persevering, but she leaned on him vigorously, Gu Mingcheng felt annoyed for no reason, the heavy smell of perfume on this woman's body made him dizzy.

Unexpectedly, it was another big oolong, this woman's boyfriend actually came over at this time, pointed to his nose and said that he seduced his girlfriend.

Gu Mingcheng was already nesting a belly with no place to sprinkle fire, so he just took advantage of this stubble to fight very happily. The man was not a vegetarian either, and he pulled two brothers as helpers, and there was a bastard with a knife dangling in his hand and cutting Gu Mingcheng's arm. Gu Mingcheng squinted his eyes and kicked over, and the man immediately fell to the ground, and the knife fell into the distance.

The fight was too intense, and the bar owner hurried over to persuade him to fight, and apologized to Gu Mingcheng for compensation. The two men were more seriously injured, and only got a very cold but firm word from the boss. "You're not allowed to enter my bar from now on."

The piece of clothing on Gu Mingcheng's arm was stained red with blood, and the bar owner had to send him to the hospital in order to apologize. Gu Mingcheng waved his hand. "No need."

He took the coat that had been resting on the bar before the fight and walked towards the exit.

Stopped by a woman outside the door of the bar, he was drunk at this time, dizzy, and only felt as if he had seen Ye Nian, with a melon seed face, pink almond eyes, and a shallow pear vortex on his cheeks. Obviously it should be a person who is haunted by dreams, why didn't he feel happy to see him at this time, and even ...... There is an urge to flee.

The first time Zhan Mu met Gu Mingcheng, it was also in this bar. Her family is poor, and the tuition fees must be earned by her own hands, when she met Gu Mingcheng, she was a wine seller in this bar, and she was almost rubbed with oil by the guests that day, but Gu Mingcheng saved her in time. When he saw his face clearly, there was a strange light in his eyes, and Zhan Mu thought it was liking. I should like it, otherwise how would I let her leave the bar to pay her tuition to ensure that she has no worries about her life, how could I smile at her, be nice to her, and respond to her almost every request. Therefore, it is completely reasonable and expected that she will fall.

Later, I found out that his "love" for her was really just because of this not too earthly appearance, no wonder there was always a trace of trance and loneliness in his smile, no wonder he was only willing to chat with her but never talked about men and women. She is unwilling to be a stand-in for the deceased woman, she is sad that this love affair was ruthlessly cut off in the embryonic stage, but even so, she still wants to stay by his side.

She didn't want to wake up from this sweet dream.

But the appearance of Xia Zhiyao changed all that.

Zhan Mu heard that this woman was the murderer who killed Ye Nian, and she thought that Gu Mingcheng hated and resented Xia Zhiyao. But if you really hate it to the extreme, why do you quietly arrange for Sister Lan, who is not at night, to protect Xia Zhiyao from the guests entangled with peers and disputes? If you really complain to the extreme, how can you privately solve the bastard man who tried to dye ~ her? How could he see Xia Zhiyao wearing the pendant given by Lu Nanteng in the Starlight Restaurant and almost losing his temper when he accepted his pursuit?

Even since last month, she has not been able to see Gu Mingcheng. He gave her enough money, but refused to see her again.

It was hard to wait until tonight when the bartender called her to tell her that Gu Mingcheng was here. She hurriedly took a taxi and happened to see him coming out of the bar. His wound was still overflowing with blood, Zhan Mu was terrified, and his first reaction was to drag him to the hospital.

Gu Mingcheng remained silent after the wound was bandaged, Zhan Mu had no confidence at all, she couldn't even find a position to care about him, but after all, she still couldn't help but speak. "Brother Mingcheng, you're fine, right?"

The pungent smell of disinfectant in the hospital made Gu Mingcheng's alcohol gradually fade, and after confirming that the woman in front of him was Zhan Mu and not Ye Nian, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. "I'm fine."

Zhan Mu smiled: "Then let's go, you are drunk and can't drive, I'll send you back." โ€

Zhanmu's father is a truck driver, so her driving skills are not bad.

After getting into the car, Gu Mingcheng was silent for two moments, then suddenly pushed the door down, and Zhan Mu immediately unbuckled the seat belt he had just buckled and jumped out of the car, "Brother Mingcheng, what's wrong with you?" โ€

Gu Mingcheng stared at her for two seconds, and said in a deep voice: "Zhan Mu, don't come to me in the future." โ€

Zhan Mu's eyes immediately turned red. "Am I doing something wrong? If you don't like it, I'll just change it. She still had a glimmer of anticipation.

Gu Mingcheng sighed softly almost inaudibly. "You're not wrong." It seems like...... It was he who was wrong.

Zhan Mu couldn't stop crying, Gu Mingcheng comforted her gently, and she grabbed the corner of his clothes. Gu Mingcheng sank his mind and broke away her slightly trembling fingers little by little. "I hope this is the last time we ever see each other."

Perhaps, it is indeed time to say goodbye to the past.

He stopped a taxi on the side of the road, and the car was left for Zhan Mu. Her eyes were red and her face was full of tears, and she watched him disappear from sight.

Sure enough, if it's not his own, he can't keep it after all.

*

Gu Mingcheng didn't go home, but went to the Bay Resort.

When I went, the hotel was being renovated, and the equipment of the 909 suite was replaced from beginning to end, and the new big bed and the matching bedside table had not yet been delivered when he entered the room, so it was found that the sentence engraved by Xia Zhiyao was a complete coincidence.

He โ–ก crouched in the corner, his slightly trembling fingers stroking the few small carved handwritings.

What kind of mood did she carve it that day? What kind of mood did you use to face his misunderstanding and the fact that he and Ye Nian became a couple? Her love is deeply rooted and sincere, and she has been trampled on by him as sludge for so long!

The saber on the keychain seemed to be stuck in his heart, and it was heartache that he had never felt before.

Ye Nian, should it be a thing of the past......

*

Xia Zhiyao slept with her head covered when she got home, and she was tired of being in bed for twenty-four hours, Bei Bei and Xiao Jiu thought she was unwell and nervous, and they took their temperature and made ginger water, and they couldn't wait to wrap her in the quilt and transport her directly to the hospital.

"You two are in this big battle, I thought I had passed through the ghost gate again!" Xia Zhiyao pulled his lips and quipped.

Bei Bei immediately "Bah, bah, bah", "Good words should not be bad words, swallow these words back for me!" โ€

Xia Zhiyao smiled, "This is a little embarrassing for me, otherwise you will spit it out of your ears?" โ€

The corners of Beibei's mouth twitched, and she pushed her shoulder and smiled, "Oops, what you said is disgusting!" โ€

The two were laughing and laughing, Xiao Jiu had already ordered a takeout to come back, four dishes and one soup.

Lifting the lid of the box, Xia Zhiyao smelled the aroma, "Wow, it looks delicious!" โ€

Xiao Jiu also smiled, "Eat more if it's delicious!" โ€

After Xia Zhiyao nodded heavily, he concentrated on eating. Bei Bei and Xiao Jiu secretly observed Xia Zhiyao's expression while eating, and exchanged glances from time to time. Xia Zhiyao was uncomfortable by the burning gaze of these two people, and then directly raised his eyes and looked back, and the two of them immediately pretended to be casual and sandwiched each other's dishes.

"Xiao Jiu, eat this!"

"Beibei, you like this dish the most!"

โ€ฆโ€ฆ

Xia Zhiyao thought about it again and again and finally decided to tell the truth. "You two don't guess, I have nothing to do, it's just that I broke up with Lu Nanteng and can't get married."

Bei Bei and Xiao Jiu's eyes widened at the same time. Bei Bei grabbed Xia Zhiyao's hand and was very anxious, "How can this be?" โ€

Xia Zhiyao cleared his throat, "Her sister doesn't like me, she came to scold me and scolded me very ugly, I was scared when I thought of living with her day and night in the future, instead of being scared for the rest of my life, it was better to break up early!" โ€

Bei Bei felt that her reason was too casual, so casual that she didn't dare to believe it. "Yaoyao, you didn't take the wrong medicine, did you?"

Xia Zhiyao made an expression of sudden realization: "Ah, I really haven't taken medicine today!" By the end of her sentence, she had already gone to the drawer to look for vitamins.

Xiao Jiu slapped the table and stood up, "Lu Yufei, that* person, right?" Damn, dare to scold you, see if Lao Tzu doesn't fix her! He was about to rush out the door, but Bei Bei stood on tiptoe and grabbed him by the ear to carry him back, "Can you die if you fight one less time?" โ€

"Then you can't watch Yaoyao being bullied by that!"

"There are many ways to take revenge, can you not choose the stupidest armed duel?"

Xiao Jiu sat down on the stool with a wilt, still a little unconvinced, "Then what do you say?" โ€

Bei Bei raised her eyebrows, confident.

Bei Bei called Lu Nanteng privately to confirm, but he said that what Yao Yao said was what it was, and she couldn't ask why, and Xia Zhiyao's mood did not fluctuate in any way for a few days, and her eyebrows and eyes were crooked every day, and Bei Bei gradually put her mind at ease, but several times she got up in the middle of the night to drink water, and saw Lu Nanteng's car parked downstairs from the windowsill.

She shook her head and sighed again, feeling sorry for Lu Nanteng.

Xiao Jiu didn't think so. "I can't even protect my own woman, what does this kind of man do when he marries him!"

Bei Bei squinted at him: "Can you protect me?" โ€

Xiao Jiu didn't react at once, and naturally continued: "You are not my woman!" โ€

In the past few days, Bei Bei has come to a conclusion that he must strike first if he has a long night, and if he wants to get his heart, it is better to get his body first. She thought so, and did so. When Xiao Jiu's eyes widened in surprise, Bei Bei pretended to be charming and stretched out the tip of her tongue to lick her lips, and then ...... Without hesitation, he pounced on him, his lips were printed, kissed, pecked.

*

Xia Zhiyao didn't look for a new job, and helped out in Beibei's bubble tea shop, and the best thing was that he could occasionally meet Yi Xiaoqiu. On this day, Bei Bei dragged Xiao Jiu, who was confused by her, to go shopping and watch movies to enjoy the world of the two, and Xia Zhiyao was naturally guarding the store alone.

She waited left and right, and finally waited for Yi Xiaoqiu, and with her, there was also Yi Xu. Usually the nanny came out with Xiaoqiu, thinking that Yi Xu was busy with work, and Xia Zhiyao and him had only met a few times.

Xiaoqiu's mouth pursed, "Aunt Yaoyao, don't mix it too sweet for me this time, my dad said that children can't eat too much sugar!" โ€

Xia Zhiyao saw her so cute, scratched the tip of her nose, and agreed with a smile. "Okay."

Mixed a cup of jujube milk for Xiaoqiu, and made a cup of jasmine tea for Yi Xu, Yi Xu stretched out his fingers to pick it up, Xia Zhiyao noticed that his fingers were slender and his bones were elegant and clean, and even his nails were trimmed smoothly.

"Thank you."

"You're welcome."

Xiaoqiu sat on the small swing chair in the store and drank happily with a milk tea cup, and Yi Xu stood in front of the counter to talk to Xia Zhiyao.

Yi Xu always gives people a sense of stability and leisure, and he always speaks calmly, this temperament seems to be innate, and the corners of his lips are curled like the warm sun in winter.

"I heard you're getting married?" His voice was beautiful, low as the strings of the piano in his heart.

"No, just kidding." Xia Zhiyao's answer seemed to be very natural.

Yi Xu still had a calm expression, did not show surprise or ask questions, quietly drank two sips of green tea, slightly curled the corners of his lips and said, "Xiaoqiu's evaluation is really right." โ€

"What?"

"Oh, nothing." Yi Xu said with a smile, "This tea is indeed so sweet that people's hearts are satisfied." โ€

Xia Zhiyao stuck out her tongue in shame, she really didn't have the talent to make desserts. She couldn't help but smile, "Are you scolding me around the bush?" โ€

Yi Xu raised his eyebrows lightly, "No, I like it very much." Occasional sweetness will make people feel happy. โ€

The two had a chat with each other.

Gu Mingcheng saw this dazzling scene when he stepped into the bubble tea shop, how could the two of them standing together give people the illusion that the years were good.

He noticed Xiao Qiu on the swing on the side swing in the room, this little girl was beautiful and smart, a pair of big eyes stared at him timidly, Gu Mingcheng didn't say anything, Xiao Qiu had already jumped off the swing and ran over to grab the corner of Yi Xu's clothes, "Dad, Aunt Yaoyao, that weird handsome uncle is here again!" โ€

Handsome, but weird?

The corners of Gu Mingcheng's mouth twitched, he couldn't be angry with a child, right?

Yi Xu turned around and moved his gaze to the door, "Mr. Gu, long time no see." โ€

The two can be regarded as acquaintances, Gu Mingcheng also smiled very politely, and shook his hands, "Doctor Gu, your daughter is very cute." โ€

Yi Xu gently touched Xiaoqiu's hair, "That's right. โ€

Xia Zhiyao didn't know whether to feel ridiculous or pathetic, Gu Mingcheng regarded his closest relatives as "someone else's daughter".

She lowered her eyes, not wanting to see such a scene again.

When Yi Xu turned around, he saw that her eyes were lowered and she looked a little pitiful, and he sank his mind and thought for a moment. "Xiaoqiu wants to go to Nanbei Park, I see that there are not many customers in your store today, do you want to go together?"

Xia Zhiyao raised her head, she understood that Yi Xu was relieving herself, she once again looked at Gu Mingcheng who was caged in the haze, and nodded slowly but firmly. "Okay, you wait for me a moment, I'll put the things in the store and leave."

Yi Xu hooked his lips and smiled: "Okay." โ€

Xiaoqiu narrowed her eyes and smiled, "Great, Aunt Yaoyao will accompany me to hicc!" โ€

Gu Mingcheng, who was ignored, was like a transparent object, he squeezed the kraft paper bag in his hand, and his fingertips were hideously white. He finally took off his mask and took a step towards her, who had once again ignored him for the sake of other men.

Xia Zhiyao quickly packed up, picked up the bag and held Xiaoqiu's hand. Xiaoqiu held Aunt Yaoyao's hand with her left hand, and her right hand held her father's warm palm, almost closing her mouth with joy.

Gu Mingcheng stood there motionless, Xia Zhiyao said to him impatiently: "Mr. Gu, I'm going to lock the door, do you continue to show me the store in the store?" Or do you want to go out with us? โ€

Gu Mingcheng raised his eyes and glanced at her, and Xia Zhiyao ignored the loneliness in his eyes. Yi Xu saw the airflow between the two clearly, "Mr. Gu, I see that your millions of cars are still parked outside, there are many children in this place, and they have scratched your marks when they are playing around." โ€

Gu Mingcheng glanced at Yi Xu coldly, and Yi Xu had a smile on the corner of his lips, looking fearless.

Xia Zhiyao's patience was exhausted by Gu Mingcheng's silence, "If you want to continue to stay here, then it's up to you!" โ€

She led Xiaoqiu and wanted to walk out the door, but Gu Mingcheng handed the brown paper bag to her in time. Xia Zhiyao frowned, "What the hell do you want to do?" โ€

"There's something about your dad." Gu Mingcheng's face was calm, "Do you want to see it...... Whatever you want. โ€

Xia Zhiyao sighed in his heart, and really stopped, and even let go of the hand holding Xiaoqiu. Xiaoqiu pouted unhappily.

"Yi Xu, I may not be able to play with you today, can I do it another day?" Xia Zhiyao smiled laboriously.

Yi Xu cautiously examined her expression and confirmed that she was serious, before nodding, "Okay, then we'll make an appointment for another day." I took Xiaoqiu to the boutique next door, what was the matter...... You can call me anytime. โ€

Xia Zhiyao nodded and smiled. "Okay."

The aura of these two people was a harmonious mess, Gu Mingcheng felt more and more congested in his chest, he only heard that Yi Xu had a daughter, as for Mrs. Yi, no one had really seen the true face of Lushan, otherwise it was rumored that Yi Xiaoqiu was Yi Xu's illegitimate daughter?

When the Yi family went out of the door, Xia Zhiyao couldn't wait to open the brown paper bag, his fingertips trembled, and his heart was uneasy. When she saw the contents of that document, her eyes widened, and she looked up at Gu Mingcheng in disbelief.

Gu Mingcheng stared at her very seriously.

Xia Zhiyao felt that his throat was extremely dry. "You ......"

Gu Mingcheng smiled confidently and calmly. "Yaoyao, don't you want your dad to be released on medical parole?"

Xia Zhiyao suddenly felt as if it was difficult to breathe, she swallowed her throat and squeezed out a few words with difficulty, "What about the conditions......

Gu Mingcheng's inky dark eyes flashed with a strange bright light, he opened his lips lightly, and said word by word: "Stay by my side, Xia Zhiyao, I want you." โ€

The author has something to say: after a few days of double and three shifts, the whole person is going to be abolished......

If you still endure the words of the overlord Wadi, in the future, the double god horse will hurt the body and hurt the god, and the tile will not do it again, (โŠ™oโŠ™)
