Chapter Seventy-Three: I Found the Best Sleeping Pill for Me
Gagne nodded, walked over and put his arm around my shoulders and walked out, and I took a few steps in a daze before asking him where he was going.
He looked a little unhappy for some reason: "Aren't you going to see Li Muyin, I'll send you there." ”
I was so frightened that I broke free: "No, no, no, I promised you that I wouldn't have anything to do with him." ”
I thought he was lying to me, but who knew that he circled me: "What's the hurry, I'm going to take you to see a good show." ”
I suddenly remembered something, didn't he go to see some sword master, where would he have time to take me to the show?
When I got into the car, I told the driver to go to the hospital, and the matter of the old house was solved, and I relaxed all of my life, and I didn't sleep well during this time, and I couldn't help but feel physically and mentally exhausted.
I leaned against the window, I wanted to see the scenery outside, but who knew that when I looked at it, I became confused, yawning one after another.
A hand was placed on my shoulder, and I pulled myself up to look over, and Ganie patted his leg and motioned for me to lie down and sleep.
How dare I, I waved my hand in fright: "No, no, I'll just lean in." ”
He lost his patience and pulled me, and I was lying on his lap.
I was not hypocritical, I adjusted my posture, closed my eyes, and suddenly heard him ask: "Xiao Jiang, do you remember, your father used to take you to the hospital to visit old friends?" ”
I opened my eyes slightly and looked at him: "Yes, there is such a thing, and then that uncle fell ill and died...... Why do you suddenly ask this? ”
He smiled slightly: "Tell me, what did that uncle tell you?" ”
Although I don't know why he suddenly asked this, I clearly remember that every time I went to the hospital to see Uncle Na, my father would always emphasize to me that this matter was a secret of the three of us, and we couldn't tell outsiders, otherwise it would not be good for Uncle I.
So am I going to tell Gayne?
Seeing that I didn't speak, Gai Nie lowered his head and asked me, "What's wrong, can't you speak?" ”
I nodded: "I promised my father and uncle that I couldn't tell outsiders, it was a secret between the three of us." ”
He stared at me: "Am I an outsider?" ”
I was stunned and sneered: "You are my creditor, of course you are an outsider." ”
As soon as the words fell, he was blocked, and he was very angry, not polite at all, and he bit my lip in three or two strokes.
I gasped in pain, but he didn't care about himself: "Look at you, you still dare to say that I am an outsider." ”
I steadied my mind, probably because I was lying on his lap, and I felt that I couldn't breathe smoothly when I was kissed by him like this.
"Gai Nie, it's only the two of us, there's actually no need to act."
"What's the play?"
I laughed, "Don't you feel tired of playing a very intimate scene?" ”
He curled the corners of his lips: "Jiang Beiyi, it turns out that you always thought that I was acting with you." ”
"Isn't it?"
He gasped, snorted, and raised his voice: "Yes, I'm just acting with you, otherwise you think I'll fall in love with you?" ”
I closed my eyes and breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, I don't like you either." ”
After making sure that Gai Nie was acting with me, I became more and more relaxed, and before I knew it, I fell asleep, I don't know how long it took, I felt a small insect burrowing into my ears, and the itching was very uncomfortable.
I opened my eyes suddenly, and I was startled by the handsome face, and Gai Nie was holding a piece of grass in his hand, which was drilling in my ear.
I sat up, grabbed his hand, and didn't tease me for a day.
Ganie looked at me with disgust: "I slept like a pig." ”
As he spoke, he reached over and wiped the corners of his mouth for me, rubbed it directly on my clothes, and then pulled the car door and got out of the car.
I suddenly realized that I was drooling from sleep, and hurriedly jumped out of the car and followed.
After walking a few steps and seeing him stop and look at me, I quickened my pace to follow, he stretched out his hand to me, I hesitated: "Didn't you say acting?" ”
He grabbed me without saying a word: "In front of Li Muyin, I need to act even more." ”
I couldn't tell how much of what he said was true and how false it was, so I had to follow him into the elevator.
There were only three or four people in the elevator, but when we got to the third floor, a lot of people poured in, and all of a sudden we were pushed to the back.
One of them, a fat man, walked straight in and turned around, her fat buttocks sweeping over me like a fish's tail. I stumbled and was about to hit the wall.
At the critical moment, Ganie stretched out his arm to protect me, and my face hit his arm, although his flesh was also hard, but it was certainly much better than the wall.
The fat woman in front of me bumped into me without knowing it, and I was still retreating step by step, Gai Nie protected me with one hand, and the fat woman's waist with the other, protecting me in his arms.
I looked up, just in time to see his resolute chin, and I suddenly couldn't control my greed for the warmth of the moment, so I cautiously took a step closer to him and pressed my face against his chest.
He was aware of the subtle change, but he didn't speak, but his arms tightened a little, and with me turning slightly, I was pressed against the wall, and his back was facing the fat woman's.
My heart was warm, I breathed in the smell of his body like indulgence, and lowered my voice: "Gai Nie, in fact, when you don't scold me and don't sarcasm, it's cute." ”
He lowered his eyes to look at me, and his good-looking eyebrows were crooked: "Jiang Beiyi, in fact, when you served me, you were quite cute." ”
I blushed and didn't dare look at him: "Can you say something else?" ”
"Yes." He laughed happily, "Aren't there still three things we have to accomplish, let's discuss, what is the first one?" ”
As he spoke, he didn't forget to glance inside my neckline, and I glared at him a few times like a long stab, if it wasn't for the lack of space in the elevator, I would have punched him a few times.
When I got out of the elevator, Gai Nie kept holding me, and I suddenly remembered that we came to the hospital empty-handed, which seemed a little inappropriate.
Just as he was about to go to the hospital to buy a bouquet of flowers or a fruit basket or something, he saw Liang Ou walking over with a bouquet of lilies and carrying a fruit basket.
Gai Nie's brows furrowed: "Repentance?" ”
Liang Ou nodded: "I agreed at first, but I quickly regretted it and wanted to talk to you." ”
Gai Nie nodded and took me to the ward, I vaguely guessed that it was Li Muyin who repented, but I didn't dare to ask more, just guessed his intentions in my heart.
When I arrived at the door of the ward, I saw Li Muzi's figure, she was sitting in front of the hospital bed, holding a bowl of something, and was feeding Li Muyin spoonful by spoonful.
Li Muyin coughed twice after taking two sips, looking not in good spirits.
As soon as he coughed, Li Muzi put down the bowl to help him pat his back, this scene looked so harmonious, so harmonious that I couldn't bear to knock on the door.
In the end, Gai Nie pushed open the door and led me inside, but when I saw Li Muyin's gaze, I regretted it, I shouldn't have come here, isn't this adding to the chaos?
Li Muzi's gaze fell on my face, and finally fell on the hand I was holding with Gai Nie, and then she smiled contemptuously: "Why is my little uncle here?" ”
Gai Nie motioned for Liang Ou to put things on the coffee table, and then said lightly: "I'll come and see Li Shao." ”
Li Muzi smiled: "Thank you, little uncle." ”
When they were talking, Li Muyin's eyes kept falling on me, and then on the hand I was holding with Gai Nie, I subconsciously wanted to break free, but Gai Nie was holding on, and I couldn't break free at all.
Li Muyin coughed violently again, so frightened that Li Muzi leaned over and patted him: "Why is my brother coughing again, didn't the doctor explain that you can't use force?" ”
Li Muyin blocked his hand and looked at me with deep eyes: "Xiao Jiang, come here." ”
I was about to take a step subconsciously, in fact, as soon as I came in, I wanted to ask him if he was better, didn't he want to eat, what was uncomfortable, etc., but Gai Nie picked it twice in my palm: "What does Li Shao want to say to Xiao Jiang?" ”
Li Mu faintly pushed away the water handed to him by Li Muzi, and he clenched his hands into fists and slammed them on the bed: "You all let me out." ”
The glass fell to the ground and shattered, Li Muzi was frightened, and shouted with tears in his eyes, his brother was crumbling, like a porcelain doll, and he could fall down at any time.
Li Muyin didn't look at him, his straight gaze all fell on my face, and although the anger in his tone was deliberately suppressed, it was still obvious: "Jiang Beiyi, don't you want to say something to me?" ”
I'm sad to see him like this, and he wouldn't be lying here if it weren't for me. At the same time, I also understand that although we have common enemies, he can not help me as much as Gai Nie in the matter of my father.
I'm not a utilitarian, I just can't afford it, I can't let Lao Jiang have a soul in the sky and not rest in peace, I can't let Lao Jiang be charged with corrupt officials in another world.
I broke free of Gai Nie, took two steps forward to the bed, ignored Li Muzi's vicious gaze, and looked at Li Muyin frankly, I originally wanted to smile, but I pulled the corners of my mouth and found that I couldn't laugh at all, so I had to cough to hide my embarrassment: "That...... Li Muyin, I'm relieved to see that you're okay. You take care of your illness, I'll go first. ”
Li Muyin's movements were very fast, I only saw him pull something out from under the pillow, and the next second something smashed my face.
Although I subconsciously closed my eyes, I was still poked in the eye by the paper, and it didn't hurt at all, it was like being bitten by a mosquito, but my heart hurt.
I bent down to pick up the papers, looked at them, and when I saw the word Zotye, my nerves jumped and I continued to look down.
There was suddenly an extra hand on his shoulder, followed by Gai Nie's deep voice: "Do you understand?" ”
I raised my head to look at him, he took it from my hand, handed it to Liang Ou without looking at it, and then looked at Li Muyin: "Li Shao, it seems that my conditions are not attractive enough, so you refuse to cooperate with me." ”
"Gai Gongzi, is it interesting?" Li Muyin's voice trembled a little, as if he was tightened in his chest, "I have a word with Jiang Beiyi, what is the matter with you stepping in sideways?" ”
"Didn't I tell you about it?" Gai Nie's tone was not very good, "The agreement between you and Jiang Beiyi is only verbal, and it has no legal effect at all. Besides, your foundation is not stable, what can you help Jiang Bei remember? His father's unjust, false and wrongful case, do you have a way? ”
When he mentioned my father, I stared at Li Muzi's face and noticed a flash of panic on her face, and then she turned slightly sideways and sat next to Li Muyin, holding his shoulder.
I saw her hands shaking, and I wanted to rush over and tear her face, and I wanted to kill her right now, and I wanted her to pay with blood.
As if he knew what I was thinking, he grabbed my shoulder, leaned into my ear, and said in a voice that only the two of us could hear: "Jiang Beiyi, you hold back for me, now is not the time to tear your face." ”
I couldn't control my emotions at all, so I had to hold the inside of his arm, for fear that Li Muzi would suspect it, so I simply buried my face in his arms.
Gai Nie patted me on the back to comfort me, and his voice was louder: "Okay, okay, cry your nose at every turn, like something." ”
Li Muzi spoke: "Brother, the little uncle is right, you can't help Jiang Beiyi." ”
"Shut up for me." Li Muyin roared angrily, "Don't think I don't know what wishful thinking you are playing, Li Muzi, aren't you just afraid that I will deal with your family?" I tell you, how did you take it from me in the first place, and one day I will come back a hundredfold and a thousandfold. ”
Li Muzi was startled when he heard this, his face turned white in an instant, and he choked up: "Brother, do you have to say that, for the sake of Jiang Beiyi, you have to say this about me?" My dad said that this home is always open for you, and you can come back at any time......"
Li Muyin ignored her at all and pointed to the door: "You get out of here, I don't want to see you again." ”
Li Muzi took two steps back in disbelief, covered his mouth and ran away, glaring at me viciously as he passed by.
The ward fell silent instantly, and only Li Muyin's wheezing sound could be heard, and it seemed that he was indeed angry.
However, he was a person who had seen the world, so he quickly adjusted his emotions and looked at us: "Jiang Beiyi, I didn't have any other thoughts about you, I just wanted to use you to stimulate Li Muzi and those people." But now, I really like you, and I've decided that I'm going to pursue you officially. Don't reject me, I like you to pursue you is my right, and no one has the right to take it away. Gai Gongzi, am I right? ”
Gai Nie covered my mouth and didn't allow me to speak, I kept shaking my head, even biting his palm, but he just covered me and shook his head at me.
When I quieted down, he smiled and said to Li Muyin: "Li Shao, you naturally have your rights, but the entire Kangcheng people know that Jiang Beiyi is my woman." If you're not afraid of being pointed at, then you can pursue it, I don't care. ”
Li Muyin squinted: "You threaten me? ”
Gai Nie laughed: "Don't dare, who dares to threaten Li Shao?" It's just a pity that I can't cooperate with Li Shao, after all, our enemies are the same. ”
Li Muyin laughed: "Cooperation? Mr. Gai can't help but think too highly of me, I'm not a fool, why didn't Mr. Gai want to use my hand to bring down Shang Xiaoyi's family? ”
Gai Nie shrugged: "Since Li Shaodu understands this, why is he still unwilling to cooperate with me, can't the conditions I prescribe enter your eyes?" ”
Li Muzi pondered for a moment, and suddenly laughed: "Why is Master Gai so sure, you will definitely be able to help me?" ”
Gai Nie walked over with me and stood by the bed, and I knew they had something important to discuss, so he whispered, "I'll wait for you outside......"
Gai Nie clamped me tightly: "No, soon." ”
In fact, I was embarrassed, although I didn't have a good relationship with Li Muyin, but from the beginning of the game in Wucheng to the auction back in Cannes, there was a tacit understanding between us, at that time I was determined to cooperate with him, and now I suddenly stood on Gai Nie's side, which was similar to a slap in the face to Li Muyin.
I'm not afraid of him saying I'm treacherous, after all, nothing is more important than getting my dad clear as soon as possible. Even now, I still don't regret my choice, it's one thing to apologize to him, it's another thing to help my dad clear his grievances, and I can still carry this.
"Li Shao, you should know that in the entire Cannes, and even in the entire southern border, without the approval of our brothers, it is almost impossible for any foreign company to gain a firm foothold. I want to bring down Shang Xiaoyi's family, some are simple and rude methods, but I don't think this is the best way to retaliate against a person, I wonder if Li Shao agrees with my opinion? ”
Li Muyin fell into deep thought, Gai Nie was not in a hurry, and said that Li Shao slowly thought that I would wait for your call, and took me to leave, asking me as he walked: "Are you tired, do you want to go home and take a nap?" ”
I think he was too exaggerated in this play, but strangely enough, I found that I didn't exclude him from being close to me when he didn't hit me and didn't scold me.
Seeing that I shook my head, he asked again, "See if you eat less at lunch, are you hungry, why don't we go eat something first?" ”
As soon as he said this, I suddenly remembered the bastard thing he did at lunch, and I couldn't help but want to fight for a little welfare for myself, after all, according to the current situation, between my father's grievances, between me and Gai Nie, there should be still many opportunities to get along, and I don't want him to make something make my heart blush every time.
"Gai Nie, in the future, in public, can you not do something explicit?"
Gai Nie looked at me twice, his eyes were cold, and I hurriedly added: "If someone finds out, you will be quite embarrassed, right?" ”
He snorted: "It means that I can be explicit to you only when the two of us are there?" ”
Obviously he wanted to benefit himself, but who knew that he would end up jumping into the pit he dug.
At this moment, Li Muyin's voice came from behind him: "Wait a minute." ”
Gai Nie and I glanced at each other, it seems that this Li Muyin's brain is quite bright, and he figured it out so quickly.
It was almost three o'clock when I came out of the hospital, and Gai Nie took me to a tea club in the southern suburbs, where he said that in addition to good tea, Portuguese egg tarts are also a must-have in Cannes.
I suddenly remembered that in the old house there used to be an oven, and my grandmother would make us egg tarts every Monday, Wednesday and Friday, plus osmanthus porridge or corn tortillas.
On the way, I received a call from Gu Liangshu, asking me if I was free tomorrow and asking me to go shopping together.
I remembered that the two of us hadn't gone shopping for a long time, so I readily agreed, and suddenly remembered what Ah Mao said this morning, and asked more: "Ah Shu, you and Xiao Kun are okay, how is the engagement?" ”
"I can't say a word, I'll go to work and meet tomorrow."
When I hung up the phone, I thought that if they got engaged, I was going to give them a big gift. For our sisterhood for so many years, and for the care of Gu Liangshu's family during this time.
When we arrived at the tea club, the waiter took us into the private room, Gai Nie ordered an egg tart, ordered grape juice, and lowered his head to ask me what else I wanted.
I shook my head, and he said, "Eat less, grandma will definitely make a good meal in the evening." ”
The moment I opened the door, I saw an old man with gray temples and a Mao suit, sitting at the tea table, playing with a string of Buddhist beads in his hand.
Hearing the voice, the old man raised his head and grinned: "Xiao Nie is here, come and taste the tea I made." ”
Gai Nie sat opposite me with me, and the man raised his eyes and asked Guy Nie, "What's wrong with your leg?" ”
"I accidentally got a little injured, and it doesn't get in the way."
The man nodded, his gaze swept to me, "Don't introduce me?" ”
Gai Nie smiled slightly, raised his hand to help me smooth my hair: "Jiang Beiyi, my girlfriend." Xiao Jiang, this is the sword master. ”
I was so frightened that I stood up, and although I had heard the name countless times, I had never seen my real face, and I didn't expect to sit in front of me now.
Gai Nie pulled me to sit down, and then explained to Dao Ye: "Xiao Jiang is timid, don't you mind. ”
Dao Ye shook his head and poured tea for each of us: "It's okay, since it's your person, I won't mind." ”
Dao Ye has no anger at all, and he can't see the domineering and kingly spirit of the big brother who has controlled the underworld in Kangcheng for thirty years, I think he is an amiable old man, just like Uncle Li next door.
Seeing me staring at him, he smiled and asked me, "Why is the little girl staring at me?" ”
Now I'm not afraid, he can still eat me, so I smiled: "You look like Uncle Li next door, when he can't win against me in chess, that's how you laugh." ”
Dao Ye laughed: "So you are good at chess?" ”
I smiled modestly: "It's okay, so far, I haven't met an opponent." ”
He glanced at Gai Nie meaningfully: "Xiao Nie, you also lost to her?" ”
Gai Nie smiled slightly: "Not yet, we are equal." Another day, you go home and let Xiao Jiang accompany you to practice. ”
Dao Ye shook his head: "I'm old, not your little young opponents. The back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves, what I told you last time, do you have to consider when you go back? ”
Gai Nie drank tea for a moment: "Naturally, I think about it seriously, but you also know that my second brother has been keeping an eye on me closely, and the eldest and second and third are there, can you give me some more time?" ”
"What's not to do?" Dao Ye Youya took a sip of tea, "Anyway, I've been leading the way for so many years, and all obstacles have been cleared for you." On your mother's side, I'm also doing ideological work. Your second brother, he will come back next month to worship his ancestors, and we will talk about it when we meet. As for the boss, the second and third bosses, if you can't handle it, you can only say that I have lost my eyes, and you are not worthy of my trust. ”
Gai Nie took a breath: "When you say that, I'm under a lot of pressure. ”
Dao Ye played with the Buddha beads in his hand, and the clouds were light: "What is the pressure, I am now innocent and clean." The key depends on what you do in the future, don't embarrass me. ”
Gai Nie smiled, took the half-eaten tart from the plate and took a bite, grabbed my grape juice and drank two sips, and then said slowly: "If it had been before, I really wouldn't have dared to promise you." Now the line on the third side's side is in need of support, and maybe I can help him. ”
Dao Ye poured tea: "Then aren't you guys like tigers?" ”
Gai Nie smiled: "Aren't you just sitting back and relaxing?" ”
The two of them were like playing dumb riddles, and I sat on the side, unable to understand at all, so I had to eat in peace. The egg tart tastes really good, the grape juice is also natural, and there is a faint fragrance in the private room.
Dao Ye took a sip of tea and suddenly asked Gai Nie: "The last time I saw your mother, I mentioned your insomnia, she was very anxious, and she still didn't get better, but I see that your complexion is very good." ”
Gai Nie glanced at me: "It's a lot better, because I found the sleeping pill that works best for me." ”
Dao Ye nodded: "That's good, but is that medicine safe, it won't affect if you eat too much, right?" ”
"Personally verified, it's safe. It's just ......" Gai Nie deliberately dragged out his long tail and looked at me deliberately, "It's this medicine, it's a little disobedient, I'm not sure how many pills to take at a time, I'm in the groping stage." ”
I suddenly realized that the sleeping pill he was talking about was me, and I helped him drip lavender and clary sage essential oil when he got sick last night, and he did sleep well.
I coughed unnaturally, covered my face with my cup, and kicked Gagnie in the calf without a trace, prompting him to get down to business.
"There is one more thing that I asked you to have tea today. You know the riverbank, right? ”
As soon as Dao Ye heard this name, he narrowed his eyes: "You know, what?" ”
