Chapter 169: Falling into the Clutches of the Devil
The gentle and light rain is very annoying, and there is no intention of stopping when it starts......
Before he could set foot on the trail leading to the gate, Chiba's clothes were wet and her shoes were covered in mud. She looked up at the sky that was so low that it was about to fall, and the rain on her eyelashes made the gray seem a little blurry. Just as he was about to wipe his eyes, a black cloth covered his vision, and when he turned his head, He Chong stood behind him with an umbrella, looking reluctant.
"I thought you wouldn't want to see me again." She said.
"Do you have to go?"
She pretended to smile lightly, but the oppressive air under the umbrella became more solemn because of it.
"There's no reason to stay here anymore."
"You haven't slept much, your eyes are bloodshot, or ......" He Chong raised the umbrella to her, and his back was instantly wet with rain.
"It's okay, I'm not sleepy, thank you for taking care of me for so long." She pushed the umbrella back, and He Chong grabbed her hand and choked up instantly.
"I still lost." Hot tears ran down his cheeks, and they seemed to burn Chiba's heart as well.
"No, don't say that, the more you think about it, the more uncomfortable it becomes. I'm sorry for you, everything is caused by me. ”
The umbrella tilted to the side, and finally fell to the ground, He Chong squatted down hopelessly, holding his head in his hands, and asked for a long time: "Will you go to him?" ”
Chiba was stunned, to be precise, his heart was hit, and it hurt and swelled. Seeing that He Chong's black hair was covered with raindrops, she slowly picked up the umbrella on the ground and held it up for him.
"I don't think so."
He Chong looked up, his eyes were red, and he was still reflecting on himself.
"Actually, it doesn't matter to me whether you go to him or not, it's that I'm not good enough to impress you. I have a heart that wants to love you a hundred percent and don't know how to do it, but I've tried. ”
She saw tears fall to the ground and break into three petals.
"It really has nothing to do with him, don't think about it. You are very, very good, you are the nicest person I have ever met. ”
"Good doesn't mean it's appropriate, right? Actually, I don't hate him, and I've always treated him as my brother, so you don't have to blame yourself. ”
"Well, go see him when you have time, he needs your help."
"I will."
"Then I'm leaving, you take care."
"I'll drive you." He Chong then got up.
"No, I've already called a taxi."
"Then I'll send you out."
Chiba nodded, and the two walked out together, and as soon as they reached the gate, they heard the sound of the car brakes.
"The car is coming, you go back quickly, goodbye." With a few words, she quickly ran away, and it didn't take long for her to disappear from He Chong's field of vision.
He Chong stood there in a daze, until he heard the sound of the car driving away and his heart breaking, and then realized that the girl he loved would never come back. He closed his eyes in pain, and the umbrella fell again.
For a long time, he dragged back with heavy steps, wanting to cry without tears. A love that never really began in the first place is over, and it is so fast that it becomes a cloud of smoke before it has time to recall. He had never experienced such a painful loss in his more than 20 years of life, and at the same time, his sense of superiority as the richest young master in Lucheng also disappeared.
It didn't take long for the umbrella to come up again, and when he looked back, Qin Luo was standing behind him with an umbrella in each hand. Due to the trotting all the way, Qin Luo's ankles were stained with a lot of mud, and he was full of worry and panting.
"Ouch, young master, why doesn't such a big person know how to take care of his body, what should he do if he gets wet?"
He Chong took the umbrella and didn't say anything.
Qin Luo walked side by side with him towards the other end of the house, looking over from time to time, with a loveless face.
"Miss Yang still refuses to stay?"
"Hmm." He Chong let out a low groan as if he had lost his soul, his eyes glazed.
"You two are really worried, I can see that you really like her, and she likes you, but being the daughter-in-law of the He family is not a simple matter after all. Miss Yang is a good person, she doesn't say much, and she doesn't know how wronged she is when she leaves. ”
"Yes, I wronged her."
"I don't know if you let her be wronged, but it's really inappropriate for the master to do that." Qin Luo hurriedly hugged and said unevenly, "How can anyone hold a gun against someone, isn't it clear that he wants to drive people away." Hey, my lord's temper is still the same as back then. ”
"Uncle Qin, you can still say two fair words in this family, my father's virtue, no one can stand it."
"To be honest, we have mistreated Miss Yang, and recently the old lady has been arguing non-stop, and she is angry with others at any time, and I see it in my eyes. Fortunately, the girl is a sensible child, and she didn't complain in front of you. Now that you two are separated, I feel sorry for you. ”
"It's still my fault, I shouldn't be in a hurry to bring her back, I can't even bear the situation at home this time, let alone her. When I was away, she didn't know how much she had been wronged, and she refused to tell me. My parents' temper didn't let anyone, and they could say any ugly words when they were red-eyed, and they all went to her. ”
Qin Luo nodded in agreement like a confidant, and expressed his opinion: "Having said that, don't take it too seriously, after all, it's your own parents, and you can't hold grudges." ”
"Don't talk for them, they just look down on Chiba and don't want me to be with her. Born in such a family, I am destined to have a love marriage that cannot be controlled by myself, and I feel really sad about myself. ”
"It's my young master. Now the popularity of the family is not as strong as before, and the old lady took advantage of the topic to play, and Miss Yang naturally became cannon fodder. ”
"No, they really don't like Chiba, they are poor, I know in my heart. In their concept, only the rich and powerful are called people, and ordinary people like Chiba are nothing at all. ”
Qin Luo stroked his goatee noncommittally, and the two of them just walked to the door.
"This is your subjectivity, Mrs. saw that it was raining heavily and had to send Miss Yang, so it can be seen that she didn't dislike her."
As he spoke, he unscrewed the doorknob.
"What! Mom sent her? When? He Chong was taken aback.
"Just now, as soon as Miss Yang went out of the gate, she met Mrs. 's car, Mrs. said to send her, and she went up, I saw it."
After speaking, Qin Luo put the umbrella into the house.
Looking at the long trail behind him, He Chong looked dazed.
……
The car window was rolled down for the most part, and Xin Mu's face was exposed, she was wearing thick eye makeup, and two big white front teeth could be seen between her red lips.
"It's raining heavily." She muttered.
Chiba's eyes were fixed on her hand, and she didn't answer.
The windows were rolled back on, and the interior of the car was quiet.
"Just park the car there." Xin Mu rushed to Nunu in front of him, and the driver obediently slowed down and parked the car at the entrance of the alley.
She commanded again, "You go first, and I'll drive it myself later." ”
"Yes."
The driver turned off the engine and handed her the keys, and left without looking back. As for what the master wants to do and how to plan, he will not ask half a word at all, this is the rule.
Xin Mu hung a strand of hair on his left ear, looked out the window and then at the roof of the car.
"It's raining, and we can't open the skylight, but we can still talk brightly."
Chiba was still staring at her hand, and fire was about to erupt in her eyes.
Feeling the burning gaze, Xin Mu raised his hand, and the ornament in his hand was shining with gold - it was a cosmos brooch.
"How come my stuff is with you?" Chiba asked indignantly.
Just as she walked out of the gate of Hefu, she noticed a car parked on the side of the road. Xin Mu stretched out a hand from the car window and flashed the cosmos brooch at her, and then she obediently got into the car.
Xin Mu asked rhetorically: "I also want to ask you, how did you come to my house." I don't want to be with that wild seed, why have I lived in the house for so long? ”
"Please speak with respect, he is your son."
"Son? I have only one daughter, and I have never had a son. Xin Mu emphasized, holding the brooch in front of his eyes and turning it, "Say, where did you get this brooch?" ”
"Give it back!"
Chiba reached out to grab it, and Xin Mu shook it swiftly, and grinned, an aggressive expression on his face.
"This is the craftsmanship of Liu's Jinfang in Qingshui Town, am I right?" Her eyes flashed with a venomous light like a snake and scorpion, as if she could swallow Chiba at any time.
Chiba was stunned, and suddenly remembered another face, which overlapped with Xin Mu's face. She was immediately shocked, and her body trembled involuntarily.
"It's you, Twelve Golden Flowers!"
The person suspected of showing the cosmos brooch on the photo of the twelve golden flowers was Xin Mu, recalling the familiar photos he saw when he accidentally broke into the bedroom, and Chiba finally got the number.
In an instant, Xin Mu's doubts were also affirmed, and he laughed freely.
"It seems that I guessed correctly, you didn't sneak into my house to fall in love with wild seeds, but for another purpose. Say, who the hell are you? ”
"This brooch was made by my mother."
"Mo Lianzhi! You are the daughter of Mo Lianzhi! Despite having guessed, Xinmu was shocked by this.
"Yes!"
"She's still alive?"
"What do you mean! You know she was killed, right? Tell me who did it! Isn't it you! ”
Chiba was furious, only to feel the blood in his whole body rushing to his head frantically. She grabbed Xin Mu's arms and shook them vigorously, almost madly questioning.
"Let go, you're crazy, it's not me!" Xin Mu struggled hard, and it was easy to get rid of it.
"Who's that?"
"How do I know!"
"Why did you swap gold jewelry with her back then?"
"Are you asking for advice or cross-examination?"
"Tell me!"
"I'm sorry I've forgotten, who remembers what happened when I was a girl." Having said this, Xin Mu clearly had a well-informed expression written on his face.
"Then I remind you! You exchanged gold jewelry with your mother to attend the birthday banquet of the gang, and then the big brother of the gang was seized power, and the gold fang also followed the closure of the ......"
"Okay, don't you just want to ask who pushed her down back then?" Xin Mu raised her chin impatiently and poked at the deepest scar in her heart.
"Who?"
"It's also one of the twelve golden flowers."
"After the night, right?"
Xin Mu was momentarily stunned. She rolled down the windows on either side of the car and took a few deep breaths greedily as her hand crept into the bag behind her back.
"You know the Queen of the Night? Have you seen her? ”
"It's hard to say, but I'm pretty sure she's the murderer of my mother, and I know that you're investing in that perverted lab."
Xin Mu rolled his eyes, and finally connected the cause and effect.
"So you pretended to be friendly with He Chong in order to get close to the two of us, so as to get closer to the Queen of the Night?" The hand hidden behind his back no longer hesitated, and grasped something in his bag steadily.
"Yes."
"Who told you this?"
Chiba was silent, unsure whether to say it or not, or how to say it.
"You think you can move the queen of the night?" Xin Mu asked again.
"If you can't move, you have to move, kill people to pay off debts and pay back, I want to find her to get justice!"
Xin Mu was slightly relieved to realize that she didn't know the true identity of the Night Queen.
"Okay, that's all I have to say, I can tell you. You have to promise me one condition, though. ”
"You want me to keep the Elysium a secret?"
"Hmph, you're thinking too much of yourself." Xin Mu sneered, and the laughter was exactly the same as Lu Meiqin's original.
"What's that?" Indeed, Chiba was also aware of her own naivety, how could she shake that place where people don't blink.
"He Chong loves you so much that he can even abandon his family and business, so I hope you can reunite with him."
"I don't understand."
"Listen to me." Xin Mu said the shameless request in his heart, and at the same time he was ready to be rejected with another hand, "I'm not worried that he will fall out of love and be depressed, and he will be unhappy about my." "She leaned her upper body towards Chiba's side, ready for a sneak attack." I thought that if you could persuade him to return Ogu to my daughter, and from now on you two would be an idle couple who don't care about the world, then I would not only take you to meet the Queen of the Night, but also be willing to give you a large sum of money, so that you would have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of your life. ”
"You are so despicable, is career money really more important than blood kinship?"
"You also know that when it comes to blood, Ina is the meat that fell from my body, if I don't protect her, do I want to protect that wild seed? Everyone has pursuits that everyone can't let go, don't you also have obsessions. ”
"No, I can't do it, I'm purely hurting He Chong."
"Haven't you been hurt already, he likes to be hurt by you, far better than if you don't care about him anymore."
"Ridiculous, impossible, impossible! Don't try to be bad to him, I'm on his side at all times, if you want to calculate him, I'll be the first to finish with you...... Yes! ”
As he spoke, Chiba felt something push to his waist, and all the cells in his body were hit hard, and he fainted in an instant.
Xin Mu held a palm-length electric baton, and if it was a gun, she would have blown into the smoking muzzle.
"I still want to avenge Mo Lianzhi's slut, phew, wishful thinking! I didn't expect to kill her back then, but today she sent me such a gift from you. She spat viciously at Chiba.
"He Chong, it's time for you to die."
