Chapter 17: The Sheep Enters the Tiger's Mouth

*

AM Group can be said to be the leader in the business world, not to mention many branches in China, and even Los Angeles has cooperation. Su Jianye, the head of the Su family and the director of AM Group, as a major shareholder, is naturally in charge of the real power of the group, but in recent years, as Su Jianye has grown older, his health is getting worse day by day, so he has slowly transferred some power to his son Su Yize.

Almost everyone in Ling'an City knows Su Yize, the eldest young master of the Su family, this golden bachelor is undoubtedly the dream lover of thousands of women, but few people know that the Su family also has a young son, and that person is Shang Xiaoyu's landlord - Meng Xuan.

For this, Shang Xiaoyu was also very curious about the reason.

Shang Xiaoyu tasted the tea that Su Yize made for her, and she was only less than two meters away from the girls' dream lover, and she looked a little flattered. Last time the banquet was in a hurry, they didn't talk to each other, so this time Su Yize personally called her to the office to drink tea, and she was so surprised that her jaw was about to drop.

Her apprehension at this time is no less than being called to the office by the head teacher to reprimand her for violating discipline in high school, and she is ready to listen to the leader at any time.

"I like Miss Shang's paintings very much." Su Yize said with a smile.

Shang Xiaoyu nodded hurriedly and said, "It's good if you like it." ”

"I invited Miss Shang to come this time to ask you to help me paint another picture." Listening to Su Yize's speech, he will feel like a spring breeze.

"Okay, what does Mr. Su want to draw?" Shang Xiaoyu took out a notebook and prepared to write down the painting requirements.

"Just draw...... How about Fronting Street on Route 23? ”

Shang Xiaoyu was stunned for a moment, she didn't know if it was an illusion, she felt that Su Yize seemed to have a deeper meaning when she said this. She raised her head cautiously, and Su Yize in front of her was still as gentle as jade, with a smiling gentleman's appearance.

"For ...... Why draw there? Shang Xiaoyu still couldn't help but speak, and when he heard his own voice, Shang Xiaoyu found that his tone trembled a little.

Su Yize straightened up and added some tea to Shang Xiaoyu, and said gently: "Tian Yi's wedding dress shop will open next month, and it will be there, so I should give her an opening gift." Actually, the last time she came to me, she saw your painting and said she liked it, so I came to trouble Miss Shang. ”

Shang Xiaoyu breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, smiled, and said hesitantly: "Okay, I'll send you the painting before next week." ”

"Then I'm bothering you." Su Yize thanked her, and then suddenly changed his gossip expression and asked, "You ...... with Xiao Xuan"

"He's my landlord." Shang Xiaoyu blurted out.

Su Yize frowned, and asked in disbelief: "Not a girlfriend?" ”

Shang Xiaoyu just took a sip of tea, and almost choked when he heard Su Yize's question.

Su Yize also smiled and said gently, "Then what do I think about our relationship in the future...... Looking forward to it. ”

Shang Xiaoyu grinned awkwardly, not knowing what to take.

Su Yize looked at his watch, stood up and said, "It's not early, I'll ask the assistant to send you back." ”

"No, I'll do it myself." Shang Xiaoyu refused.

"It's okay." As he spoke, Su Yize called an assistant named Xue Fang in.

In the next second, pushing the door in, it was a man in a suit and leather shoes, wearing an ironed outfit, combing a standard hairstyle, walking with wind effects, looking quite like a model on the catwalk.

However, it seems that after the previous incident, Su Yize really replaced his assistant with a man.

Shang Xiaoyu nodded to Xue Fang, and was just about to go out when Su Yize, who was behind her, called out to her and asked casually, "I don't know if Miss Shang has any sisters?" ”

"Huh?" Shang Xiaoyu didn't react for a while, turned around and said, "Oh, I still have a sister." However, I haven't been in touch for a long time. ”

Su Yize nodded, and properly arranged for Xue Fang to send her back.

Looking at the decreasing numbers on the elevator, Shang Xiaoyu felt that his mood at the moment was mixed.

Prior to this, Su Yize's three words had always been just a rich boy and a young and promising business elite in the mouths of the people around him, even if he knew that he was Meng Xuan's brother from the last banquet, the sense of distance and oppression still existed. He seems to be a sun that is only suitable for people to look up to.

But after this contact, Shang Xiaoyu felt that Su Yize was a very easy-going person. He should be one of the stars in the sky who is no different from the others, and he will take care of the other person when talking to him, and will not make the other person feel any discomfort. With such a person, Shang Xiaoyu really couldn't imagine that he and Meng Xuan would be brothers.

Shang Xiaoyu looked at the address written in the notebook, No. 23 Road was on the street.

She looked like she hadn't been there in six years. If she were to paint a picture, it would undoubtedly mean that she was going to sketch.

Xue Fang was very caring and quiet all the way, and Shang Xiaoyu politely thanked him and returned home with a heavy heart.

"Boss, it's the second young master's residence, the rhyme of light." Xue Fang looked at Shang Xiaoyu's back as he walked away, and reported truthfully to the person on the other end of the phone.

Those who hide in the darkness are never discovered, because they have never been in the sun, and they are in places where the sun has never shone.

Shang Xiaoyu stood on the balcony and looked at the night view of Ling'an City, the sky was cloudless tonight, the air was very hot, and it was supposed to be another heavy rainstorm coming. The one at the top of the album at hand is still Wan Shuang's grandmother, and she hasn't noticed the person who has been given a death notice by the god of death for a long time.

She turns to the last page, which is her first drawing.

There are only a few brushstrokes on the paper, a frontal view of a car. The driver's face in the cab is blurred, the model of the car is also blurred, and the only thing that is clear is a street sign erected on the side of the car: Wanton Street.

Six years have passed, and the memory of the car accident that changed her fate six years ago has been erased by time, and everything has been miniatized into that street sign.

That's where the nightmare began.

Early the next morning.

Meng Xuan followed Niu Da all night to the algae area, and the two changed cars to the dock. As soon as he boarded the ship, Meng Xuan noticed that the atmosphere was a little unusual, there were less than ten passengers on the ship, except for the crew, and these people seemed to be more than just passengers.

Meng Xuan stood on the deck blowing the sea breeze, carefully looking at everything around him.

"Here, have a drink." Niu Da walked up with two bottles of beer.

Meng Xuan and Niu Da sat on the deck, and Niu Da asked him, "Do you like the sea?" ”

"I like it." Meng Xuan nodded.

"I like it too, I grew up at sea." Niu Da opened another bottle of beer, "I originally wanted to be a navy, but then I didn't report my achievements and kept drifting on the sea, and then I met someone and started a business together." Although Niu Da's words were vague, Meng Xuan could naturally hear the reason.

The sea breeze is getting stronger and colder, Meng Xuan feels that he is getting more and more sleepy the more he drinks, and he feels like the world is spinning when he sits on the boat, and even Niu Da in front of him is beginning to ghost. The moment the darkness hit, Meng Xuan understood what was going on.

Unexpectedly, he fell into a deep sleep with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

Niu Da sighed and said to the people behind him, "You are not allowed to stay." ”

Looking at Meng Xuan's back as he was taken down by two of his subordinates, Niu Da dialed a number.

"Brother Xiang, the 'sheep' has been found."

The sea breeze was mixed with the strong smell of wine, and the fog on the sea gradually dissipated, and the waves hit in waves, and the boat was also hit up and down by the waves. The sea seems to be calm, but if you are not careful, it will be rough when you meet the strong wind.

After about thirty minutes, the boat docked. After getting off the boat, Niu Da took a bunch of car keys, drove a truck, and drove Meng Xuan to a certain place.

After a bumpy ride, Meng Xuan could be regarded as waking up, but he had a terrible headache. Turning his head to look at the side, Niu Da was driving intently with a cigarette in his mouth. "Brother, awake? You're too drunk to get drunk without much of it. Niu Da said with a smile as he drove.

Meng Xuan naturally knew that with his amount of alcohol, it was absolutely impossible for him to get drunk so easily, and it was self-evident what was in the wine that Niu Da gave him. He looked at the brand-new clothes on his body, and pretended to smirk: "Oops, maybe I'm seasick haha." ”

Niu Da also smiled and said: "You, you were drunk and vomited, so I asked someone to help you change your clothes, and I threw it away, don't mind?" ”

"Don't mind, don't mind, I'm a person who loves the new and hates the old." Meng Xuan scratched his head, "But that dress is quite expensive." ”

Niu Da was stunned and laughed loudly.

Meng Xuan looked at the environment outside the car window, although it was remote but fresh and comfortable, it seemed like a paradise suitable for people to retreat to the mountains and forests. The more the car drove away, the fewer people there were, and finally the car stopped in front of a small farm yard.

"Come, get off." Niu Da greeted Meng Xuan.

Meng Xuan smiled and followed.

It's a place similar to a farmhouse. The air in the countryside is naturally incomparable to that in the city, and the good and pure natural environment makes it support many fruits and vegetables.

There are large patches of peppers planted at the door, watermelons and tomatoes inside. However, what Meng Xuan was interested in should be the area with the best geographical location in the middle of the courtyard, and the large red patches were as delicate as fire.

Seeing that he was walking slowly, Niu Da came over and asked, "What?" ”

Meng Xuan waved his hand and said, "No, I'm just wondering, this can't be a casino, right?" ”

Niu Da smiled and patted him on the shoulder, and led him inside. Unexpectedly, although this small farmhouse sparrow is small, the hardware facilities are not inferior to those villas and mansions, coupled with the simple pastoral style, it is really enough to make people forget to return.

Inside is the back of a woman wearing a large straw hat standing under the grape trellis picking grapes.

"Sister Xiao." Niu Da called her from afar.

The woman looked back, and the sun reflected her bright smile. She took off her straw hat and fanned the wind, and her short chestnut hair was covered with a layer of golden sunlight. Xu has been in the sun for a long time, and the sweat on his head is faintly visible.

With a smile on her face, she walked towards Meng Xuan and Niu Da.

The woman in front of her at this moment is undoubtedly beautiful, at least Niu Da on the side has never left her since she hit her, if the eyes are considered a crime, then Niu Da is raping now.

Of course, Meng Xuan was also staring, but he felt that the reason for his amazement came from the facial features of this woman with outstanding temperament, and he felt as if he had seen the shadow of another person.

A person he gets along with day and night, looking down and not seeing the shadow of the person he looks up.
