Out of Suiyuan, Lu Jue walked aimlessly on the street, looking at the endless street, full of confusion and helplessness. For Zhou Ruoshui's safety, he arranged for a woman who had mastered various skills to protect him. The departure and stay of these women are all under Lu Jue's orders, although he has been going out early and returning late in recent days, but Zhou Ruoshui's situation, he can still know about it for the first time, so naturally Ye Suxin has to talk to his sweetheart.

The confused future and the imminent parting of his lover made him breathless from all the pressure, making him even less hopeful about his next life. He had never been afraid of death before, and it can be said that he still looked forward to death for a while! But now that it's time to really face it, the only thing that he can't let go of is the woman who makes his heart move, she is gone, he is not to blame; She is responsible, he is not responsible, and what scares him the most is life and death. For those who truly love each other, as long as the lover is better than themselves, that is the greatest comfort.

Although there are some things that he doesn't want to accept, it is what he wants to do most urgently, that is, to let her live well and happily! Now that I think about it, maybe only by handing over the water to that person can I die without distraction! There is no time for him to think about the second way, and the success of this one depends on whether the person is sincere. He sent someone to find a pot of good wine and carried it to Zhao Yan's mansion alone.

Hearing Lu Jue's name on the Menzi newspaper, Zhao Yan couldn't believe his ears, and when he saw Lu Jue sitting in the hall, he was a little surprised, the two of them together had met no more than a few times, and they couldn't even talk about acquaintance, let alone communication, he was really confused by Zhao Yan at this time.

In contrast, Lu Jue was generous, got up and walked over to take the lead in speaking: "I have a pot of good wine here, I don't know if Brother Yan has time, how many glasses can I drink with you?" ”

The tone was gentle, and the smile was cute, Zhao Yan wanted to refuse, but the words had already reached his mouth and he swallowed back. Frowning tightly, he glanced him up and down, and went to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, but he knew that he had something, but he couldn't help but ridicule: "The adults are in the second grade, and they are just grass people below." Adults have the leisure to come to drink below, but they dare not climb high. Even if you don't say that the adults deign to be demoted, they will say that the grass people are tying up the powerful, although the grass people are not gentlemen, but they also value reputation, and the adults should not be reluctant to do so. ”

Lu Jue didn't care about what he said, lowered his head and smiled, and said while pouring wine: "Brother Yan is serious, this time it is not the powerful people who are in power, but ordinary people who just want to find someone to drink with them." "Take a drink of yourself.

Zhao Yan couldn't help but sneer: "But even so, you and I don't seem to know each other, and we don't have any common good, so it's better to be terrible." Akari hinted that it was all an eviction order.

Lu Jue didn't answer in a hurry, his slender fingers hooked the wine jug, poured two glasses each, one glass each, and handed it to Zhao Yan with the other: "Who said that, don't you and I have the same person in our hearts!" Seeing that Zhao Yan didn't answer, he put the wine glass on the table, drank it all in one step, and then came to another glass.

Zhao Yan, who was bluntly spoken by him, looked slightly embarrassed, raised his eyebrows, picked up the wine glass and drank it all. suppressed the strange look, turned his head to look at him, and saw that his brows were slightly wrinkled, the corners of his mouth were tight, his face was a little haggard, and he looked preoccupied. I understood that he didn't come to drink with himself, and his mind moved: "Say it! If I can, I'll do my best. ”

Lu Jue has never questioned his sincerity, as long as it involves Shui'er, he has no hesitation. After drinking the wine in his hand and suppressing the bitterness in his heart, he cleared his throat and said, "I want you to say a word of sincerity, do you really regard water as more important than your own life?" As soon as these words came out, God knows how uncomfortable and uncomfortable he felt in his heart, but if he wanted Zhou Ruoshui to go to Huangquan with him, it was not what he wanted, as long as Zhou Ruoshui lived well, everything was worth it, wasn't it!

Lu Jue is good to Zhou Ruoshui, Zhao Yan sees that he has also changed greatly in his eyes, and now he said such a sentence, where can he believe it. He squinted at Lu Jue and said, "Wait, I didn't understand, or there is something wrong with what you said, what do you want to do here?" ”

Lu Jue smiled bitterly, the hand holding the wine glass was slightly forced, his head was lowered, where was the spirit of the past, although he was reluctant in his heart, he had to speak helplessly: "Brother Yan, but do you really regard water as more important than your own life?" ”

As soon as these words came out, Zhao Yan was startled, and as soon as he sat down, he bounced up from the chair, what does this mean, do you want to be a negative person again, he glared angrily: "What do you mean, isn't it, you want to abandon Xiao Ruo again!" ”

In the face of his questioning, Lu Jue did not answer, because his heart was so painful that he couldn't speak. With trembling hands, he opened a brocade box placed on the table, and took out the seal letter inside.

Zhao Yan, on the other hand, stared at his every move with a puzzled expression, looking at the things on the table. In addition to an ivory seal letter, there are more things like land deeds, and when Zhao Yan saw these things, he did not solve the doubts in his heart, but was even more confused.

After putting the things away, Lu Jue picked up the ivory seal letter and stood up and said: "This is my private seal, I have purchased several properties in the capital for a few years, as long as you go with my seal, they will not suspect you." After speaking, he handed the seal letter to Zhao Yan.

Faced with all this, Zhao Yan immediately lowered his face and asked, "What do you want to do?" ‘

"It's all about me to repay your favor! Thank you for taking care of the water in the past few years. Lu Jue didn't answer his question directly, put the seal back in the box, picked up the box and put it directly in Zhao Yan's hand, and said sadly: "This is my entire net worth, I hope Brother Zhao will accept it with a smile." ”

The box was not closed, the deed inside could be seen clearly at a glance, and he couldn't help but sigh at Lu Jue's ability, several shops on these deeds were famous in Beijing and even in the entire Daqi, almost to the entire Daqi had its semicolon, and even a few Zhou families had business dealings with him. If you want to say that Zhou Wenfeng's private property can be worth half of the country, then this person is the lifeblood of the entire Great Qi, but who would have imagined that the person with such strong assets is a young man who has just passed the age and crown, and this person is Lu Jue!

Although Zhao Yan sighed at his ability in his heart, he was moved, and he sneered: "What are you doing, treat me as a beggar, the adults look down on me Zhao Yan!" Shui'er is my sister-in-law, I am his brother, and I should be good to her. Although Zhao is not as good as an adult, he is not pitiful enough to let an adult help. He put the box in his hand on a few places, strode to the door and opened the door, pointed to the door and said, "My narrow house can't accommodate the noble body of an adult, so please go back!" ”

Lu Jue walked to the door with heavy steps, frowned, and pleaded: "Except for you, I don't have a second person I can trust in this matter!" I really have something to ask for, please. ”

The second grade of the official residence, what kind of identity, as long as there is something to ask for, it is a big deal. Zhou Ruoning was detained by Lu Jue, Zhao Yan heard about it that afternoon, Zhou Wenfeng may not blame him in person because of fear of power, but there will be mustard after all.

Zhao Yan understood Lu Jue's concerns, but he knew Zhou Wenfeng and Zhou Ruoshui better in comparison. He closed the door again and said, "If you are afraid that your marriage with Xiao Ruo will fall through because of the eldest lady's business, you can rest assured that the master is by no means an unreasonable person!" ”

And Lu Jue didn't know what he was thinking, lowered his head and looked unpredictable, and finally sighed with a smile, and said in a low voice: "I just want to know, do you really love Shui'er?" As soon as these words came out, only he knew how much his heart hurt. Some things are easy to pick up, but it is not easy to let go.

Before Zhao Yan sat down, he stood up again, looking at Lu Jue in a daze, it seemed that he was just covering his eyes, and he had not hidden his true feelings. At this time, he bluntly said that his heart was a little stiff, his face was a little stiff, he coughed, and his tone couldn't help but increase: "My lord didn't come to ridicule Zhao today!" Xiao Ruo's mind doesn't need to be explained below, you will not understand it as a party. Now that I am talking about this, what is my lord's intention! ”

Lu Jue sat down in the chair, held the armrest of the chair tightly, forcibly suppressed the grief in his heart, lowered his eyes silently, and said in a low voice after a while: "The matter I am facing is not clear in one sentence or two, and the more people know about this matter, it is just one more person who is troubled." Maybe what I'm doing is incomprehensible, as long as you understand that I have no malicious intent! ”

"Less high-sounding, have you ever thought about Xiao Ruo's feelings! She has endured so many gossips for you, and she finally waited until today, but in exchange for such a result. What did you do earlier, why did you wait until she was reluctant to let go, and then cut a knife in her heart, wouldn't you force her to die by doing so! As he spoke, his face sank, and his eyes flashed with irrepressible anger.

Lu Jue said bitterly: "That's why I entrusted her to you, because no matter what, you won't watch her have an accident!" He clasped his hands together, and said with a sad expression: "If I am unfortunately defeated, these and my bride price will be Shui'er's dowry; If I can get away with it, I will spend the rest of my days repenting and atoning for my sins! Holding on to the armrests to prop up his heavy body, he clenched his hands tightly and arched his hands to Zhao Yan, bent down and bowed and said astringently: "Lu Jue wishes you and Shui'er to grow old and have a full house of children and grandchildren." After saying that, he straightened up and turned around and left.

"Stop." After a few steps, he walked behind Lu Jue and said, "Lu Jue, I really didn't see it!" What a coward you are! Hmph, I saw all the things you did to Xiaoruo after you came, and I blamed myself for blaming you. I'm still grateful to God, he still gave Xiao Ruo a wishful husband fairly, but now it seems that I really think highly of you! As he spoke, he walked around in front of him and rebuked unceremoniously: "Yes, I am a grass citizen, I don't know what major events you have that will make you worry so much about the future, but isn't this matter still inconclusive?" Why do you want to surrender first, even if you have exhausted your talents and limited abilities, I don't believe that with the wisdom of you and the master, there will be no hope! ”

Lu Jue lowered his eyebrows, paused and said, "It's me who is cowardly, and I don't want to take risks." ”

Zhao Yan said: "Then you are looking down on your relatives and the Zhou family, if they know, they will not let you fight alone; If Xiao Ruo knows, he will not abandon you! It's not that you're noble, it's not that you're brave! It's you who are selfish, you selfishly impose your own ideas on others, you are not for their good, but to make them more miserable when they learn the truth! ”

"It's only temporary, it's better than a lifetime of pain. I want them to live well in the world! That'、、、、、、" The words are not finished

Zhao Yan ruthlessly interrupted: "Hmph, Lu Jue, I know Xiao Ruo better than you, you look down on her!" If she really was a half-hearted person, she wouldn't have come to this point. ”

How could Lu Jue not know Zhou Ruoshui's temperament, if she wants a good result, she has to be ruthless, he believes that time will erase everything. He didn't say anything, stared intently at the wine jug on the table, and said in a flat voice: "Please, water!" Although it is a few plain words, you can hear the infinite tenderness. turned his back to Zhao Yan, hung his head, and held the coffee table with one hand, without looking at him. Suddenly, he lifted the jug, drank the jug with his head up, slammed it to the ground, and walked away without looking back.

Looking at Lu Jue's back as he gradually moved away, Zhao Yan felt a thorn in his heart, and he held the pile of land deeds with a hundred tastes. As long as you take a step forward, you can have huge wealth and beautiful flowers, but even if you really have everything, looking at your sweetheart, who washes her face with tears all day long because of the loss of her lover, you can really feel at ease, that is the result you want? Although it is sad to take a step back, although it is to give up her sweetheart, if she truly loves her, she is happy, isn't it her original intention!
