raised his eyes and secretly glanced at Nangong Chen, but fortunately, there was no trace of anger on his face. %d7%cf%d3%c4%b8%f3

Nangong Chen glanced at the fruit basket in his hand and smiled indifferently: "Qiao." ”

"Unfortunately. I heard that my cousin was sick, so I came to visit. Lin Annan handed the fruit basket in his hand to the two of them: "I wish you a speedy recovery." ”

"Thank you, thank you Jiyan that I have recovered." Nangong Chen took the fruit basket and put it on the trash can on the side.

Seeing his behavior, Lin Annan's face changed, and he felt embarrassed to be humiliated.

If it weren't for his mother forcing him to come, if it weren't for Lin's future, he wouldn't have come to the hospital to suffer this humiliation. Before he came, he knew that this would be the result, who was Nangong Chen? Not normal people at all!

And Bai Muqing lowered her eyes, a man-man duel! I can't bear to look at it!

Seeing Lin Anan gritting his teeth, Nangong Chen smiled mockingly: "Lin Shao, what's wrong?" Could it be that I am going to eat this basket of fruit? ”

"I didn't ...... The fruit basket only represents blessings and hearts, as long as my cousin can see the hearts of our Lin family. Lin Annan forced a smile.

"The heart of your Lin family." Nangong Chen muttered playfully for a moment: "I really can't see through it!" ”

In order to prevent them from continuing to be white-hot, Bai Muqing hurriedly opened her mouth and started a round: "That...... Gentleman. The driver has been waiting outside for a long time, so let's get out quickly. After speaking, he pulled Nangong Chen to the gate of the hospital.

Until he got into the car, the expression on Nangong Chen's face still did not ease, and at this moment, he returned to his usual cold and indifferent appearance.

When he's in a bad mood. She usually shuts up and remains silent.

****

At night, when Bai Muqing stayed in the house and was bored. I grabbed a piece of paper and a pen and sat on the terrace and sketched.

The brush stroked across the snow-white paper, leaving lines of depth and shade, and soon the outline of a man appeared on the paper.

Bai Muqing was stunned, and found that the face shape on the paper was so similar to Nangong Chen, what was wrong with her? Since when did you start to draw with a brush, instead of Lin Annan, the painting was changed to Nangong Chen?

Could it be that she has really begun to slowly like this ruthless man? No, how can this be?

Nangong Chen does not belong to her, his heart belongs to the mysterious woman surnamed Zhu. His person belongs to Bai Ying'an, and she Bai Muqing ...... What qualifications do you have to like this man who doesn't belong to you from beginning to end!

Fidgetedly, she crumpled up the paper and threw it in the trash, then got up from her chair.

After a moment of annoyance on the terrace, she turned back into the room, and as her gaze swept over the dresser, she inadvertently landed on the scroll on the table.

In the past two days, she has been busy dealing with the scandal and taking care of Nangong Chen, she has almost forgotten the existence of this painting, and now that she sees it again, she can't help but appreciate it again.

I don't know why, she has never liked a portrait like the painting in front of her, knowing that it was sent by Lin Annan, and she shouldn't take it home. It shouldn't be kept. But I still can't help but like it, I can't let it go, and I even hang it on the wall of my bedroom.

Good night.

The next morning, as soon as Bai Muqing opened her eyes, she saw "Mrs. Jing" on the wall, and the moment she met her eyes, her heart suddenly skipped a beat, and she felt a little flustered.

Maybe it's because she's never seen such a large portrait at the first glance when she wakes up, so she thought.

In order to maintain the nutrition of the fetus, Bai Muqing ate more breakfast than before, but fortunately, everything was safe, there was no morning sickness and no trace of being found pregnant.

Park Lianyao claimed that she was on vacation today and invited Bai Muqing to go shopping together, but Bai Muqing had to agree.

After breakfast, she asked Park Lianyao to wait downstairs, and she went back to the bedroom on the second floor to change clothes.

The bedroom door was hidden, and it was obviously closed when she just left, could it be that the maid was cleaning? She pushed the door suspiciously and stepped in, only to see Nangong Chen standing in front of the painting called "Mrs. Jing", staring fixedly at the beautiful woman above.

It turns out that he also likes this painting, and he is so obsessed with it, men are really people!

Before she could finish despising her in her heart, Nangong Chen had already turned to face her, her face was extremely pale. Just seeing the indifference on his face, Bai Muqing's heart was already tight.

Why is he angry again? Is it because this painting is angry? Does he know that the painting was given to her by Lin Annan? Still is......?

"What do you want to do?" Nangong Chen stepped over in a few strides, grabbed her jaw and stared at her coldly.

"What......?" Bai Muqing pretended to be stupid.

"Where did this come from?" Nangong Chen waved his long arm and pointed to the painting on the wall: "Who allowed you to hang it on the wall?" Withdraw it for me right away. ”

"I ...... I just love ....... Bai Muqing was frightened by the anger on his face, she hadn't seen him so angry when she had an affair with Lin Anan two days ago, could this have started a fire because of a painting?

What to do? How would she explain it to him to make him believe in herself?

She was about to open her mouth to explain that she just liked this painting, not because of Lin Annan, but Nangong Chen turned back to the painting, ripped the painting off the wall and smashed it at her feet: "I asked you where did this painting come from?" How much do you know about this? Who else but you know? ”

Bai Muqing was completely confused, this time he was not pretending to be stupid, but he was really confused, and he really didn't understand what he meant.

Looking at him, it seems that it is not because Lin Annan is angry, but because he ...... yes, what the hell is he angry about? What is the 'this' he is referring to?

Unable to wait for her response, Nangong Chen became even more impatient, turned over and took out scissors from under the glass table, and then leaned over and grabbed the painting at her feet and cut it into pieces like crazy.

Seeing that he was so abnormal, Bai Muqing was worried that he would cut his palm under excitement, so he jumped up and hugged his arm and said urgently: "Young Master, what are you talking about?" I don't understand....... After a pause, she continued: "I saw this painting in the Palace of Culture, and I brought it back when I liked it, and I don't know anything else, I don't know anything!" ”

Nangong Chen's back stiffened, and the movements in his hands stopped.

Bai Muqing looked at his stunned appearance and asked cautiously, "What's wrong with you?" What happened to this painting? ”

After being silent for a long time, Nangong Chen turned around, stared at her expressionlessly and asked, "You really don't know anything?" ”

Bai Muqing hurriedly shook her head, she really didn't know anything, although she wanted to know why he reacted so much after seeing this painting, but now didn't seem to be the time to ask the truth.

She obviously felt Nangong Chen sigh secretly, then threw down the scissors and stood up from the ground, and ordered her: "Take it out and burn it." ”

It's all been cut to tatters by him, and she wants to take it out and burn it? She felt more and more that the painting was odd.

Of course, she knew very well that she couldn't answer this matter to Nangong Chen, so she wasn't stupid enough to touch his bottom line.

Picking up the cut painting paper piece by piece, when Bai Muqing got up, he saw Nangong Chen standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window facing the direction of the ancestral hall in a daze.

In fact, her bedroom is not directly facing the backyard, and the auditorium is on the west side of the backyard.

She walked over and cautiously called, "Young Master......." ”

Nangong Chen turned around and interrupted her indifferently: "I think Sister He should have told you that if you want to stay in this house, the first thing you have to do is to put away your curiosity, and don't ask what you shouldn't ask." ”

Bai Muqing's hard-earned courage was instantly destroyed by her, so she had to stop her words and be silent.

Sister He did say this kind of thing to her, and it was also explained on the document!

*****

Walking on the street with Park Lianyao, Bai Muqing didn't have the slightest intention of shopping, Park Lianyao felt her absent-mindedness, pulled her to an open-air café and sat down and asked, "What's wrong?" An absent-minded look. ”

Bai Muqing looked at her, and couldn't help but have some doubts in her heart, this painting was introduced to her by Park Lianyao, so was she unintentional or deliberate?

But it's not right, the painting was given to her by Lin Annan, not Park Lianyao.

"Lian Yao, do you remember the picture of a girl called "Mrs. Jing"?" She asked.

"Remember, what? Want it? Park Lianyao smiled ambiguously: "If you want to, let your cousin buy it for you, with your current relationship with your cousin, he will definitely be willing." ”

"I'm ...... with him What feelings? ”

"You are still pretending, I saw the scene of the two of you hugging in the same bed in the hospital that day."

Bai Muqing knew that she was referring to the time when she hugged Nangong Chen to sleep, and her face was a little embarrassed. But soon he returned to normalcy and stared at her and asked, "Actually, I just want to ask you, how much do you know about "Lady Jing"?" ”

"What do you mean?"

"That's right, I brought "Mrs. Jing" home, but the eldest young master reacted very much when he saw it, and ordered me to take the painting and burn it."

"How so?" Park Lianyao asked in surprise.

"I just wanted to know why this was happening, that's why I asked you."

Park Lianyao shook her head: "What I know is the written record I saw in the exhibition hall, and I don't know anything else." She thought for a while, and then said: "But the Nangong family has a lot of secrets, and we outsiders can't guess them one by one, so forget it, don't worry about it." ”

Seeing Bai Muqing's suspicious face, Pu Lianyao hesitated for a moment and said, "For example...... The ancestral hall of the Nangong family, I heard that there are secrets about the life history of my cousin and his so-called lover in my previous life, but except for the old lady and cousin and Master Wang, no one else has ever entered that place. ”

"A lover from a past life?"

"Well, Master Wang said that my cousin owed a woman in his previous life, so he was cursed and sick." Pu Lianyao took a sip of the water cup, shook her head and smiled: "It's funny, grandma actually believed it." ”

Bai Muqing was stunned by her words, and thought for a while: "No, I've been to the ancestral hall twice, and I haven't seen any special ......." ”

Speaking of this, Bai Muqing suddenly stopped talking.

No, she has been to the ancestral hall twice, and both times she encountered incredible and strange things.

"The ancestral hall of the Nangong family is big, and you only arrived at the front hall of the ancestral hall." Pu Lianyao said and put her finger on her red lips, and said in a low voice: "These are all from other people's mouths, and it is difficult to determine whether they are true or false, so you must not say it, and don't run stupidly to ask your cousin or go to the ancestral hall to find out the truth, otherwise grandma will be unhappy." ”

Bai Muqing nodded faintly: "I know." "The woman just died.

Although she had a thousand instructions from Park Lianyao, Bai Muqing couldn't help but seize the opportunity to come to the door of the ancestral hall of the Nangong family.

Today, Sister He accompanied the old lady to the famous temple in City C to offer incense, and she needed to be baptized in the temple for three days. Nangong Chen also went to the company, and it was said that he would not come back until very late.

Although she was full of fear of this place, she couldn't help but move forward in order to find out the truth.

The lover of the previous life, is the picture of the girl named "Mrs. Jing" really related to the rumored lover of Nangong Chen in the previous life? That's why Nangong Chen was so out of control after seeing the painting?

She didn't know what it would do her to pursue the truth, and she knew very well the consequences of being discovered, she should have turned away, but in the dark, it was as if something was pulling her forward.

The two servants guarding the door in the auditorium saw her, looked at each other, and thought to themselves that this unfortunate young lady would not be punished by the family again, right?

"Please open the door and let me in?" Bai Muqing said to the two servants.

"The young lady wants to go in?" The servant looked at her in amazement, and the people in the house avoided this place, but she wanted to go in?

The old lady had instructed that no one was allowed to enter except for the people of the Nangong family, so is the young lady in front of her a member of the Nangong family?

"That's right, the eldest young master asked me to come over." Bai Muqing lied.

Sure enough, the two manservants immediately had a touch of sympathy on their faces, and then opened the door and let her in.

Although she had already been here twice, when she stepped into this gloomy ancestral hall, Bai Muqing couldn't help but shudder. I heard that pregnant women have a lot of yin qi and are more likely to see unclean things than ordinary people.

She took a deep breath and looked around, the ancestral hall of the Nangong family was really very large, and there was a back hall in the front hall, a side hall, a side room.

His eyes swept over the wooden door in the upper right corner, Bai Muqing immediately remembered the woman in white she saw when she knelt for the first time, and as soon as her steps turned, she instinctively wanted to step towards the gate.

However, after only two steps, she stopped, if she just turned around and left, when would she find out the truth? How long will you be tormented by this fear and curiosity?

In order to give herself courage, she took a deep breath and secretly reminded herself that there were no ghosts and gods in the world, and there was no need to be afraid at all.

She took a burning candle from the candlestick and cautiously walked towards the door in the upper right corner, which creaked open with a strong push.

It was a door to the back hall, and it was pitch black, and she held up the candle flame and looked around the entire back hall.

The back hall is different from the front hall, the front hall is dedicated to the tablets of the ancestors of the Nangong family, and the back hall is only dedicated to a tablet and a pillar of incense. The tablet is also different from the ordinary tablet of the deceased, with only the word 'Jingqi' simply written on it.

Jingqi?

Bai Muqing suspiciously guessed the true identity of this person, why did he appear alone in the ancestral hall of the Nangong family?

In order to get a glimpse of the Jingqi lady's face, she moved the candle flame upwards and tried to find her posthumous photo.

Under the dim candlelight, the first thing Bai Muqing saw was a painting of a girl, from the bottom to the top, from the clothes to the face, this painting was actually the same as the "Mrs. Jing" given to her by Lin Annan!

Her brain buzzed, and it went blank instantly!

How so? How did this painting end up here?

She suddenly remembered that Park Lianyao had said that the "Mrs. Jing" hanging in the exhibition hall was actually copied by a certain master, and the real genuine was collected by a mysterious rich man.

Could it be that this painting in front of you is the real collection, and the mysterious rich man who collects this painting is the Nangong family?

Jing Qi, Mrs. Jing...... What is the relationship between her and the Nangong family? In order to find out the truth, she took another deep breath and dared to skirt around the spiritual position and grope behind the portrait.

There was another door behind the spiritual seat, Bai Muqing carefully pushed the door panel and stepped in, she didn't have the heart to look at the exquisite decorations around her, her eyes fell on an object in the shape of a coffin draped in red satin in the center.

Is it a coffin? It seems like so.

Bai Muqing was so frightened that she almost retreated, but reason overcame fear, she hesitated and walked over, pinching the candlestick with one hand and lifting the corner of the silk on the coffin with the other.

Two hands, trembling so much that they couldn't help themselves.

Finally, she saw it, it was a crystal coffin that could only be seen on TV, the coffin was transparent and crystalline, and the coffin was ...... inside.

The last trace of strength in Bai Muqing's heart finally collapsed, her pupils widened, her legs became weak, and her breathing gradually became shorter.

"What are you doing?" A cold, piercing voice suddenly sounded behind him.

Bai Muqing was so frightened that she screamed, and turned around, in the night, Nangong Chen's figure was slender and cold.

Her mouth was wide open, and it felt like it was harder to breathe.

Nangong Chen grabbed her arm, pushed her to the crystal coffin, and lifted the silk cloth on the coffin with the other hand. Pointing to the woman sleeping quietly and sweetly in the coffin, she gritted her teeth and said, "This is the truth you have been seeking, and now you finally know, so what?" What can you change? ”

"I ...... Let me out. ”

Nangong Chen didn't let go, but moved the palm on her arm up and grabbed her neck instead: "Master Wang said that only when she comes back to life will I have a chance to live, how about it?" Can you dig your heart out of her and let her live? Can you? ”

"Don't! Let me out! Bai Muqing struggled almost hysterically, shouting.

"Why rush out? Don't you really want to know the truth? Don't you always want to know how long I can live? ”

"Let go of ......." Bai Muqing, who was already having difficulty breathing because of fright, was pinched by him and couldn't breathe even more, his eyes were dark, and he finally fainted in his arms because of his physical exhaustion.

Bai Muqing put herself in a series of nightmares again, she has often had nightmares since she married into the Nangong family, but every nightmare is not as good as today's, she almost woke up screaming.

Outside the window, it was already bright, and the time on the wall was already pointing to eight o'clock in the morning.

She raised her hand and touched the cold sweat on her face, closed her eyes, and everything in her dream came back to her mind.

In the dream, she came to the ancestral hall of Nangong House alone, saw the portrait of "Mrs. Jing", and saw a quiet woman lying in a crystal coffin, and then Nangong Chen appeared .......

Bai Muqing opened his eyes suddenly, no, this is not a dream, this is a fact!

She really went to the ancestral hall last night, she really did, and Nangong Chen really said those things to her......!

"Woke up?" An indifferent voice sounded next to him.

Bai Mu was stunned for a moment, only then did he find that Nangong Chen had entered his bedroom at some point, and was leaning on the bar with his hands on his chest and an unkind face.

"Chen Shao?" Bai Muqing immediately sat up from the bed and stared at him: "...... last night." ”

"You secretly went to the ancestral hall last night, and you were scared into the front hall, and the servants brought you back." Nangong Chen said first, his tone revealing a thick displeasure.

"Stunned in the antechamber?" Not the backroom?

"Miss Bai, I don't think you are really suitable to stay in the Nangong family anymore." Nangong Chen stood up straight, walked over, leaned over and stared at her closely: "You are the first person who dares not to take the Nangong family's family rules into account. ”

"I ......." Bai Muqing was confused.

Did she really faint in the antechamber last night? And what about the portrait of "Lady Jing"? What about the woman sleeping in the crystal coffin? It's just a nightmare she imagined?

Is it true, as others say, that pregnant women are prone to hallucinations?

"Is there really no woman named Jingqi in the ancestral hall?" She stared at Nangong Chen without fear of death and asked.

"What do you mean?" Nangong Chen twisted his eyebrows.

"It's ......." Bai Muqing couldn't say it clearly, because even she couldn't tell whether it was a dream or a reality.

"Are you trying to justify your mistakes?"

"No, it's not." Bai Muqing shook her head: "I'm sorry, I'm just curious about what is in the ancestral hall, why don't you let people approach." ”

"Who told you there was something in there?" There was a dangerous light in Nangong Chen's eyes, Bai Muqing was frightened, and instinctively shrank back and shook his head.

It was Park Lianyao who told her that there was a secret in the ancestral hall, but Park Lianyao said that it was just a rumor, and she repeatedly told herself not to explore the truth, she couldn't betray Park Lianyao!

The door was pushed open, and Sister He walked in.

She glanced at Bai Muqing on the bed, and said to Nangong Chen: "Eldest young master, the old lady heard that the young lady broke into the ancestral hall last night and was furious in the house, claiming that she would personally teach the young lady a lesson and drive her out of the house. ”

Hearing Sister He's words, Bai Muqing's heart trembled, it was a terrible thing for the old lady to be angry!

She turned her eyes to Nangong Chen for help, but Nangong Chen seemed to be unable to receive her request for help, and said indifferently: "As long as grandma is happy." ”

Throwing this sentence down, he turned and walked towards the bedroom door.

When Bai Muqing was taken to the old lady's bedroom by Sister He, she saw the old lady pacing back and forth in front of the floor-to-ceiling window with a gloomy face.

Seeing her come in, his eyes swept and shouted at her: "Kneel down for me!" ”

What age is it, and I still kneel at every turn. Although Bai Muqing didn't want to kneel, in order to reduce the punishment, for the safety of herself and the baby, she had to kneel on the ground obediently.

The old lady is not young, but her body is very tough, and after a few quick steps, she gave her two slaps left and right, and scolded angrily: "Did Sister He tell you that you can't go to the ancestral hall?" Do you have?! ”

The two slaps were thrown up, and Bai Muqing only felt that both sides of her face were burning pain.

She held back tears and nodded.

"Since I told you, then you knowingly committed it?" The old lady became more and more angry, and snatched the cane on the side and swung it at her.

Bai Muqing screamed in pain, and her body trembled lightly and crawled on the floor.

The old lady closed her eyes and said in a cold voice, "Call someone to come and send her away immediately!" ”

Sister He answered, walked to the phone and started dialing.

Bai Muqing understood that the old lady's send-off was not to send herself back to her parents' house, nor to throw her out of the door, but to a place where no one could find her, and it would be difficult for her to go back to City C in the future.

No, she can't live under someone else's control, she has to go and get her mother and brother back.

Tears finally flowed uncontrollably, and she threw herself on it and hugged the old lady's legs. The old lady resisted and wanted to get rid of her, her face was full of disgust: "Get out! Don't stain my clothes! ”

"I'm pregnant." Bai Muqing choked up and spit out a sentence.

It's not a last resort, she won't reveal the news, she still wants to switch identities with Bai Ying'an in three months, and then live secretly with the child, but now she can't say it.

Hearing her words, the old lady was obviously stunned for a moment, and the anger on her face dissipated in an instant, and she stared at her in disbelief: "What did you say?" ”

"I'm pregnant." She tearfully repeated.

I didn't expect to save myself in the end, since it was the child she wanted to kill several times.

The corners of the old lady's lips moved, and a smile appeared, but she still asked suspiciously in her tone, "Really?" ”

Bai Muqing nodded.

She didn't dare to lie about this kind of thing, although the old lady believed it so much, but .......

She looked at Bai Muqing and asked the doubts in her heart: "Since you are pregnant, why didn't you say it before?" You know I've been hoping for you to get pregnant. ”

"Because...... The eldest young master warned me more than once that I was not allowed to conceive, and I was afraid that if he found out, he would force me to kill the child. "Things have developed to this point, and Bai Muqing can only tell the truth.

"Then you can't hide it from me." The old lady threw down her crutches and bent down to help her up from the ground, and Sister He hurriedly came over to hold her other arm and helped her to sit down on the sofa.

"How? Did you just hurt your stomach? The old lady began to look at her nervously, and regretted and helplessly said, "You should tell grandma when you come in, if you know that you are pregnant, how can grandma be willing to beat you?" ”

The old lady's palm gently caressed her reddened face, anxious.

It was the first time Bai Muqing had seen such an amiable old lady, but such an old lady made her feel uncomfortable, like sitting on pins and needles. Especially the little hand that slid across her face, it was obviously gentle and delicate, but she was as uncomfortable as being cut by a knife.

...
