"My father-in-law can't get to the table again, and you make the dinner so grand as if you're doing your landlord's friendship with me."

When Taki came to look for me to go to the hall, I heard Jiang Zuoyi say to Ling Nan from a distance.

It's obviously a very low-key visit, but it makes the banquet hall where few people attend so forced. I couldn't control my desire to go up and salute Ling Nan with a glass of red wine, and said to him, "Are you inviting those dead souls who died at your hands?" ”

"How many years have you been out of here? Even if I come back with half my life, my influence will be greater than yours. Ling Nan turned the wheelchair, and the flexible arc made me involuntarily look at the marks on the floor.

Like, it's really like what I saw at Lu Zhaoxin's house that day.

Walking over quietly, I said to the two of them that I had a good chat with Mr. Gao.

Jiang Zuoyi and Ling Nan looked at each other, and a very incredible expression appeared on their faces at the same time.

"Shu Lan, there are people in this world who can chat with their father-in-law happily, but I'm afraid they haven't been born yet." Jiang Zuoyi led me into the dinner and asked me if I was already hungry. After eating, he went to rest early, he still had something to discuss with Ling Nan and his father-in-law.

"I think Mr. Gao is very wise," I snorted softly, "and he sees people very accurately." ”

"Well, it's also accurate to cut people." Ling Nan was like a respectful butler, carrying a stack of towels from the side. I really want to take his joints apart and see if this guy is a marionette after all.

What kind of person can practice such a ruthless and cold heart.

I said don't talk nonsense, since I'm here today, I have something to ask you.

Crackling on my phone, I pulled up an old piece of news. Last night I sent an email to Wang Xiaofei and asked him to help me find some reports of street murders that year.

I said Ling Nan, these three little gangsters are what you call them, and they were killed by you after tarnishing my innocence?

"You've checked everything, why don't you stop by and take a blood test to see which one your daughter is?"

I had just swallowed a piece of burnt beef when I suddenly felt a wave of nausea in my stomach.

The three hooligans, judging from the newspapers, had to make a mosaic of their faces. I'm really not interested in knowing which of them is Yezi's father!

"Ling Nan, you're enough." Jiang Zuoyi pressed my trembling shoulders and glared at him with a cold brow: "Shu Lan is already my woman, Xiao Ling's future stepmother."

You deserve it if she hates you, and you don't have a right to hate her. ”

Alas, Jiang Zuoyi, you can be considered fair.

I think let's put the topic back to Mr. Gao, after all, we have to cross half of Asia to see Mr. Gao, and we have already calculated any hatred and grudges.

I say that your stepfather is very accurate about both of you, one is a lazy lion and the other is a cunning viper.

"Really?" Ling Nan sneered: "I've seen too much Harry Potter." Clearly the mascots of Gryffindor and Slytherin......"

Me: "......"

I almost begged Jiang Zuoyi for help with tears in my eyes, I said in my heart that I really hate such a devil in front of me, but why is there no way to take him.

"I can't ..... him either" Jiang Zuoyi whispered in my ear: "You have to understand a truth, Shu Lan." I came to Thailand alone with you, saying that it was my father-in-law's territory, but in fact, a lot of power has long been in the hands of Anan. If he wants me dead, I can save you all at best. ”

"Jiang Zuoyi! You're still bringing me here when it's so dangerous? I grabbed his arm and twisted it hard.

"The most romantic honeymoon is martyrdom......" Jiang Zuoyi's heart is really as big as an inflatable doll. Then he asked me what else his stepfather told me?

"Mr. Gao is very kind, it feels like-"

I may have died early, and I almost blurted out the sentence 'People are dying, and their words are good'!

This is the New Year, if I am three years old, I can still be unscrupulous. Alas, fortunately, I didn't provoke a room full of boys who rushed at me with guns......

But I'm just thinking about it, what kind of trouble is the sudden sound of a gunshot!

A stirring went down my spine, and I almost knocked over the curry juice in my hand. The scene was in an uproar, and everyone got up in an instant!

The sound of gunfire came from the backyard, clear and crisp, like a hammer striking on the edge of a white porcelain bowl.

Then there was the panicked nursing lady who shouted in an octave of heights, speaking a language I couldn't understand.

I saw Jiang Zuoyi's face change in an instant, and Ling Nan's wheelchair was drifting like Hot Wheels-

"Shu Lan, don't come here!"

I followed the buzzing steps upstairs, only to catch Jiang Zuoyi's figure with his back to me, standing stiffly in front of Mr. Gao's bedroom.

He yelled at me, and I understood in an instant.

The warm and humid tropical monsoon climate made my sense of smell more and more acute, and the smell of blood poured into the door of the hall with the open balcony window.

The nursing lady, who was almost frightened and collapsed, was helped by Mr. Taka's assistant, Taki, and trembled with tears.

I think the Thai girls are very touching. Of course, who can guarantee that all girls in Thailand are girls......

Mr. Gao was shot through the temple, and there were scattered blood stains all over the bedside and walls.

The spear was in his hand, his eyes closed.

I watched Jiang Zuoyi walk over step by step, his leather shoes stepping on the expensive carpet with a heart-wrenching sound of stagnant water.

Ling Nan ordered his subordinates to block the scene, and for a while, no one inside or outside the entire villa could enter and no one could leave.

I think there's so little time left for grief in this scene.

The nursing lady was babbling something that I really couldn't understand. I cautiously asked the assistant Taki, who knew Chinese, and he told me that Mr. Gao had been alone in the room since he finished talking to me.

When the nurse was about to go in to deliver food, he said that he was a little tired and didn't want to eat.

So the girl went out with her plate in hand, and before she could get down the stairs she heard a gunshot in the house. She was sure that she hadn't seen anyone haunting the neighborhood, that is, Mr. Gao had been alone all along-

"Anan, tell someone to clean up." Jiang Zuoyi's voice was deep, and he took off his coat and covered the corpse of Gao Shanfeng.

No one moved.

Before Ling Nan spoke, although there were already black people outside the entire room, no one moved.

"I'll tell you to call someone to clean up!"

Jiang Zuoyi suddenly turned around, his expression was like a hideous cheetah in the wind.

"Ah Yi, are you so sure that your father-in-law committed suicide?" Ling Nan lifted his glasses, and his tone was plain and cruel.

"You nonsense! When I played with the gun, you didn't know where you were a beggar, whether you drove it yourself or not, I can see it clearly! Tell someone to clean up the ...... first."

The black pressure forced the air, and no one moved.

Jiang Zuoyi took a step forward and grabbed Ling Nan's tie: "Ling Nan, you want to tell me that everyone is obeying you now, aren't you?" ”

"What do you say?" The man with glasses pinched the placket of his clothes, and his thin wrist flipped hard to break free.

And before the words fell, I watched dozens of guns control the whole scene like magic!

- It's exactly like my dream yesterday!

I, a powerless woman, have no ability to turn a crisis into a situation like this. But the only thing I can do is not to raise a gun at my man like in my dreams!

So I stood beside Jiang Zuoyi without fear and held his hand. I said that from the moment you decided to choose between me and Ling Nan, I would leave my fate to you.

I believe not only in your determination, but also in your ability to turn the tide of danger.

"Shut up, it's not time to say goodbye." Jiang Zuoyi didn't appreciate it at all!

Don't you think my words are touching at all?

Jiang Zuoyi grabbed my waist and didn't hide me behind me like a little woman, but let me stand side by side with him.

Jiang Zuoyi in my eyes has always been so confident. If he dares to bring me, he will have the ability to protect me. I've never doubted that.

"What do you want to do? All quit! Ling Nan got up from his wheelchair and coaxed away the ambush on all sides.

The crutches under one arm were very steady, but they could not hide the fatigue after the initial recovery from his serious injury.

"Ah Yi, I just want to talk to you about my father-in-law. Why would you provoke those ignorant newcomers? ”

"I'm just testing the depth of this Longtan Tiger's Den. Of course, I believe you won't make a move on me, after all, Xiao Zero is still with me. Right? ”

Jiang Zuoyi didn't let go of my hand, and at the same time, he didn't let down any vigilance. But it made me feel creepy.

Once upon a time, I thought that Jiang Zuoyi's weakness was Xiao Zero. But he never expected that one day he would dare to soak the soft rib in vinegar, making it softer and softer, and even turning it into a rubber band that can counterattack marble!

By this time, Taki had already come to the door with a doctor. Ling Nan waved his hand and asked them to deal with it, and then led the two of us back to the hall on the first floor.

I carefully held the corner of Jiang Zuoyi's clothes and whispered that you are okay.

Gao Shanfeng is his most respected father-in-law, and he is also the only concern he has left in this world.

died in the bedroom so dramatically, I couldn't imagine how Jiang Zuoyi's mood could suddenly change back.

But people don't think about sadness in a crisis, it's an instinct.

"I'm fine. Wait...... I'll have someone send you back home. ”

I said no, I'm not going back!

"What are you two doing here? As if I really wanted someone's life. Ling Nanjing pushed the wheelchair to the dining table, but he did not lose his humanity to the extent that he could still feast on it. He just propped his elbows lightly on the countertop, and his eyes looked through the crisp lenses, as if he wanted to control everything with his gaze.

I stepped forward and said Ling Nan, what do you want? I naively thought that we would repay the previous incident, but now it has been written off.

For the sake of the man I love the most and your most important brother are the same person, I can't even suppress the fact that you made someone rape me! What more do you want?

"Ah Xue's account has been settled, what about his father-in-law's account?" Ling Nan put his hands in front of his face. I especially don't like the way he looks judgment-filled, as if everyone is guilty and should be played with by him.

"I'll look into my father's business. Since he was disabled in an accident two years ago, he has been devastated.

I don't come here often, but I've always kept in touch with Taki. also knew that his depression was very serious, and he had long had thoughts of suicide.

This time he suddenly asked me to come back to see him......" Jiang Zuoyi glanced at me, and then cleared his throat: "Let Shu Lan go back first, and I'll talk to you later." ”

"Let her go back? Don't you think she should know about it now? ”

I suddenly felt that the blood in my whole body was congealed in the peripheral nerves of the cells, and I said what should I know? What the hell are you talking about?

"After two whole years, if you Jiang Zuoyi still can't find out where the gunpowder that mutilated his father's legs came from. Even I feel like I'm smashing a signboard with you. Ling Nan snapped his fingers as he spoke, and the subordinate standing outside the door stepped forward and handed over a set of information: "From the day Long Lao Er dropped it, you held half of the customer list dragged from Wang Xiaofei in your hand——"

Half a customer list? I remembered it all at once—

That time he was intercepted by Long Lao'er in the deep alley with Wang Xiaofei, Jiang Zuoyi arrived unexpectedly and took away the 'fake list' in Wang Xiaofei's hand, which was actually only a small part of it.

"I'll say it one last time, send Shu Lan back!" Jiang Zuoyi suddenly picked up the red wine glass on the table, smashed the rim of the glass with a snap, and pressed it directly on Ling Nan's throat.

I wasn't as surprised as I imagined, because his loss of control made me more worried than his attack on Ling Nan.

I said what else I couldn't know? Make it clear today!

"Shu Lan, how else do you want us to make it clear?" Ling Nan sneered, ignoring the embarrassment of the sharp blade and neck. I think these two people are really weird, they both know that the other party won't do anything to them, but they always like to do such cruel things.

At this time, Jiang Zuoyi's hands were already trembling a little, and the blood flowing down his wrists was red on his sleeves. I can't tell whose it is.

"You are the director of Zhongshan Jianye, don't you have a little doubt and consciousness in the face of those accounts of unknown origin?"

My mind was messed up, and I woke up as soon as the mess was over.

Accounts?!

I remember that Du Chenfeng once pointed out to me one by one that Zhongshan Jianye's strange dynamic chart of non-operating income in the past ten years. The inexplicable breach of contract compensation is like opening a big net of greed, chewing hard all the dirty copper-smelling desires.

I still remember Ye Jinliang confessing to me that my father wanted to use the 'Jiangjing Capital' to launder the company's black money, and such a large-scale black-box operation should not be willing to take risks after collecting a few handling fees.

"You tell me, what exactly is our Zhongshan Jianye ..... ......?"

I bit my lip and stepped back, saying that I hadn't thought about the strangeness behind this that was getting closer and closer to the truth.

"Your father is the terminal leader of the underground black powder magazine in S City. He and Ye Zhenkuan have been under the banner of making building materials since they started, and they are secretly engaged in this business.

Of course, if there was no escort from Jiang Bancheng, they would not have been able to do so steadily. Don't you want to think about it, Zhongshan Jianye, who laundered money for the Jiang family for no reason when Zhongshan Jianye made a fortune in his early years, is there no deeper water behind it? ”

I staggered two steps to the table, and finally managed to get to my feet.

I said Ling Nan, I don't believe it.

"Jiang Zuoyi, you tell me......" I turned to him, gently stepped forward and stretched out my hand to him.

He didn't look up at me, just threw the broken piece of glass on the floor.

I asked him, you don't explain, to show that all this is true?

No wonder the customer list that Wang Xiaofei got was so similar to the missing items found by Du Chenfeng, and Song Jia, who was killed mysteriously, must have been killed because he found out the abnormalities in the accounts.

Is it ...... My dad? He is obviously in prison, and he obviously seems to be bent on good-

Are these all fake, all fake?

If Ling Nan said so, even the original Zhongshan Jianye accident case was directed and acted by my father, and even the inside story that Ye Jinliang knew was only the tip of the iceberg.

Since the source of black powder is in Zhongshan, then all of this-

I crouched down in pain with my head in my hands, and I said I couldn't believe it, and I couldn't believe it just by what you say.

"It's a fact whether you believe it or not." Ling Nan glanced at me contemptuously: "Jiang Bancheng is dead, Ye Zhenkuan is dead, and the only person who knows is Gao Shanfeng, the killer who has been secretly cutting off dissidents for Jiang Bancheng back then.

If Ah Xue hadn't known about it, would your father have used such a knife to kill her?

Ah Yi, if you lose one woman, you can fall in love with another one. That's a daddy...... Are you also willing to call Shu Zhongshan a father in person? ”

"Shut up!" Jiang Zuoyi grabbed Ling Nan's shirt and held him to the ground: "I know what you want to do, what you want to do."

I promised you that you would help you to the end, but you have to let Shu Lan leave first. ”

Ling Nan stood up from the ground, waved his hand, and two people came out at the same time to support my arms.

I was stunned: "No! I'm not going! Jiang Zuoyi, what are you going to do! I beg you to spare my father-"

"Shu Lan," Jiang Zuoyi turned around, and his voice pierced through my frightened cry: "I...... I'm sorry. ”

Jiang Zuoyi ......" I was abruptly silent, and with the silence came despair after all: "What did you promise me?" You won't turn your back on me, you won't hurt me!

Will you leave my dad alone? I know maybe he's done a lot wrong, but he's already learned a lesson in prison! He's already in ruins, and he doesn't have many years left!

I beg you to stop talking about it......"

"Shu Lan!" At the moment when my body was ruthlessly dragged out of the gate by two eagle dogs, I heard Jiang Zuoyi's voice high-pitched and clear-

"Listen, I promised you what to do, and I didn't forget it for a moment!"

When I got on the plane, I was still in a trance.

I began to carefully adjust my thoughts, and suddenly I felt that many directions really opened up in an instant.

My father's involvement with the Jiang family was not just as simple as assisting in money laundering from the beginning, and I really believe that everything Jiang Zuoyi did to Zhongshan Jianye was laid out from the perspective of revenge from the beginning. But he said that he was in love with me, and because of his love, he had to pull out the hedgehog's thorns one by one and plant flowers for me in the original scars.

God knows how much I hoped, if only Ling Xue hadn't died! Without human life, there would be no chasm between us that disturbs me.

But now...... It's like a big net that keeps pulling on the body. Hands go in, feet go to rescue, feet go in, heads go struggling. In the end, all four limbs were tied inside, and one by one they were broken, which was a bad thing.

Mr. Gao may really commit suicide, but the secret of his suicide will definitely not be as Jiang Zuoyi and Ling Nan thought - after suffering a sudden accident, he couldn't think of raising a gun after several struggles and depression.

Since I was the last person to speak to him, I believe he had conveyed a lot of thoughts and messages to me in those few minutes of conversation.

He committed suicide, probably because he didn't want to see hell.

And who are the two fierce ghosts in hell who raise their knives against each other?

I'm going to stay calm, extremely calm.

Jiang Zuo is prone to losing loved ones, and it is easy to make mistakes in judgment in such a short period of time. Will he fall for Ling Nan? Could this be another trap that makes people even more confused?

Ling Xue is dead, and Jiang Zuo hates my father. But what if Ling Xue hadn't died? If Ling Xue hadn't died, then anyone's hatred would have become weak or even less valid.

So the high mountain peaks died......

Why do I seem to think that everything that 'someone' has done is to hope that Jiang Zuoyi will raise a knife against my father!

I thumped my swollen temples and asked the people around me if I could drive faster.

"Ma'am, this is an airplane. ”

After more than four hours of nervousness, I fled as soon as I landed.

Actually, they didn't mean to detain me, but I instinctively started to protect myself.

Jiang Zuoyi is not by my side now, and what I can do is too limited.

But one of the most important things, I was clear about the direction from the beginning.

Jiang Zero.

I think that my moral outlook still has a limit, and I will never do such a conscientious thing. But I have to hold the last hole card for Jiang Zuoyi.

Now that my man is alone in Thailand, he may be hoodwinked or coerced by threats.

Only Jiang Ling is Ling Nan's last ray of softness.

In order to prevent things from going where I couldn't have imagined, I had to preemptively strike.

I jumped into a taxi when I got out of the airport, and I said master hurry up, I'm in a hurry.

I went directly to Jiang Zuoyi's villa to pick up the two children from there.

In the early hours of the last day of the year, the empty streets were filled with gloom and chill. The midnight radio in the taxi was yellow and violent. I pinched my phone and made a call again and again: "Jinliang, it's me." ”

"Shu Lan?" Ye Jinliang's voice was very sober, I don't know if he has long been used to sleepless nights during this time.

"You don't have to ask anything, I'll bring the leaves to you now."

"Shu Lan, what's wrong!"

"There's no time to explain." The taxi has arrived at the station, I haven't had time to give the money, and the suitcase is still lost in the car, I said master, you wait for me for ten minutes, I will be back immediately.

It's so late that it's hard to hail a taxi, so I hurried into the community, thinking about taking the child first.

But what I never expected was that when I pushed the door in, I saw-
