After dinner, the two elders went back to the room, Ning Guoen's cervical spondylosis was committed, and Zhou Zhihui went to massage him.

Ning Ronghao saw Ning Zaiyu sitting on the sofa in a daze, so he patted Chu Xinyi's head and motioned for her to go back to the room to take a bath first, while he himself sat down and chatted with his younger brother.

Xiang Ning Zaiyu put a favorite apple in his hand, and Ning Ronghao asked with a smile, "What are you worried about?" ”

"Huh?" Ning Zaiyu came back to his senses and frowned, but he didn't say what worries in his heart, he just shook his head slowly.

"Did Gu Yi say something to you?" What kind of person Ning Ronghao is, he will not be perfunctory at will. With his own understanding of Gu Yi, Ning Zaiyu dared to come forward to sabotage his meeting with Chu Xinyi, and he would definitely not give up.

"It's not like he's not tired of hearing the lines, so let him be." Ning Zaiyu's expression was a little depressed, to be honest, he was really a little self-defeating.

After so many years of hard work, he finally succeeded, but because of the personal grievances between the boss and his brother, he encountered the crisis of blocking.

It's a bit unlucky to think about it, but even so, he has to protect his family.

Ning Ronghao looked at Ning Zaiyu quietly, Gu Yi had framed Ning Zaiyu repeatedly before, in order to block him, in order to take revenge on himself for stealing Chu Xinyi.

I'm afraid it's like this again.

Thinking of this, Ning Ronghao stood up, rubbed Ning Zaiyu's hair, and comforted him with a smile: "Thank you for protecting your sister-in-law today, it's time for my brother to repay you, don't worry, I won't let you have anything to do." ”

"Brother......" Ning Zaiyu looked up at Ning Ronghao.

"What?" Ning Ronghao smiled softly.

"Don't mess with my hair!" Ning Zaiyu pushed away Ning Ronghao's hand, patted his chest and said, "I'm not a child anymore, I'm a dignified man now, and I also have someone I want to protect." ”

"Oh? Looks like my brother has really grown up. Ning Ronghao nodded seriously, and immediately grasped the key point in Ning Zaiyu's words, and asked with a smile: "My manly brother, do you already have someone you want to protect?" ”

"Huh?" Ning Zaiyu was stunned for a moment, then looked away, and his voice became extremely quiet, "I mean family." ”

"In this case, you protect yours, I protect mine, you are also my family, and naturally you are also the person I want to protect." Ning Ronghao saw that he didn't want to say anything, so he didn't ask anymore.

Looking at Ning Ronghao's back when he went upstairs, Ning Zaiyu secretly sighed in his heart: Sure enough, it's my male god brother, looking at him like this, I feel so tall...... I don't know when I'll be able to protect the people I want most, like him.

Thinking like this, he couldn't help but look at his phone, which contained a person he cared about and wanted to protect.

Ning Ronghao returned to the bedroom, and Chu Xinyi was still taking a bubble bath with the little yellow ducks in the bathroom. He put on his coat, took his phone to the balcony, and made a few phone calls to reporters he knew well, asking them if they had heard anything and hoping that if they received anything, they would let him know in advance.

After making the call, he was about to go back to his room when the phone rang, it was the reporter he had just found, so he quickly picked up the phone.

"Mayor Ning, I put down your phone and contacted a few of my colleagues, one of the colleagues in the entertainment version is quite mysterious, although we have a good relationship on weekdays, but he refuses to tell me the details, only saying that it is related to your brother." After a pause, the reporter said apologetically: "I'm sorry, Mayor Ning, I can only ask so much." ”

"No, I'm already grateful." Ning Ronghao ended the call, his eyes flickering with angry flames.

Although he didn't know what Gu Yi was going to do yet, he was sure that he had already started to act.

His identity is not suitable to come forward, and this matter has to be handed over to Duan Feng.

Thinking of this, Ning Ronghao called Duan Feng again, told him his thoughts on the phone, and asked him to do it, hoping to stop Gu Yi's conspiracy.

After the call ended, Ning Ronghao did not rush back to the room, but stood in place and thought about it from beginning to end, and nodded with satisfaction with the decision he had just made, believing that there would be absolutely no problem.

Now, just wait for Duan Feng's good news.

With a long breath, he turned to go back to his room, only to be startled by a face crushed against the floor-to-ceiling window.

He couldn't help but laugh dumbly, waved his hand to Chu Xinyi, and motioned for her to stand a little farther back. She had just taken a shower and was wearing only a silk dressing gown, and if he opened the door now, the cold air that rushed in would freeze her.

Chu Xinyi's face, which had already been deformed, left the glass window, and trotted into the bathroom, only poking her head out to look at him.

She's so cute...... The corners of Ning Ronghao's mouth couldn't hide the smile, he pushed the door and walked into the room.

"Husband, who are you secretly calling, actually behind someone's back?" Chu Xinyi tilted her head and pouted.

Without rushing to answer her question, Ning Ronghao took off his coat and felt that the chill on his body was almost gone, before he walked to the door of the bathroom and took Chu Xinyi's hand and sat on the edge of the bed.

Pinching her fleshy little face, he smiled and asked, "That's why you pressed your face so ugly for the sake of eavesdropping?" ”

Chu Xinyi brushed away Ning Ronghao's hand, rubbed her nose, "snorted", and said angrily: "I almost flattened my nose, you quickly confess to me." ”

As she spoke, she leaned forward and grabbed Ning Ronghao's collar.

"Do you think you're throwing yourself into a hug?" Ning Ronghao put his arm around her waist and led her to himself, so that the bodies of the two people were tightly together, and there was no gap between them.

"It's not, it's obvious that you want to forcibly occupy the people's daughter!" Chu Xinyi learned to be obedient, knowing that his strength was not as good as his, and he couldn't push him away, so she simply bit him on the shoulder.

"Wife, are you biting me?" Ning Ronghao couldn't help laughing, she threw herself on her shoulder with her mouth open, but she was reluctant to bite down.

"Hmm!" Chu Xinyi replied vaguely and nodded lightly.

However, she also knew that she was not a bite at all, but after hesitating and hesitating, she was reluctant to close her mouth. If it really bites, she will be distressed.

"If there is no rudeness, then I will bite you too." Before the words fell, Ning Ronghao took Chu Xinyi's earlobe in his mouth, sucking and teasing it with the tip of his tongue.

"You...... It's not a bite either......" Chu Xinyi was tickled by him, so she had to let go of her mouth in order to avoid him.

"Don't hide!" Ning Ronghao saw that she was about to run, so he hurriedly hugged her tightly and whispered, "Come, sit on me." ”

"Again?" Chu Xinyi felt that he was asking this question too stupidly, he untied the strap of her nightgown, and his hand touched her chest, how could he just touch it?

"Don't you want to?" Ning Ronghao asked knowingly, although she complained every time, she enjoyed it very much every time.

Chu Xinyi pouted, glared at him coquettishly, and straddled his lap.

Ning Ronghao withdrew his pants, supported her hips with both hands, and said with a smile: "Do it yourself." ”

"Hmph, I've found it right now!" Chu Xinyi sat in little by little.

"Practice makes perfect." Ning Ronghao kissed her lips, enjoying her efforts to please herself.

The next day, there was no negative news about Ning Zaiyu in the headlines of the entertainment pages of all the newspapers, and Duan Feng worked hard for a whole night about it.

There are two people who are very dissatisfied with this result.

One is to use the condemnation of public opinion to block Ning Zaiyu's Gu Yi; And the other is Wu Bin, a reporter who has always wanted to find an opportunity to teach Ning Ronghao a lesson.

Although the editor-in-chief has given up on this news, Wu Bin does not want to let go of such a rare opportunity.

He used the time to run the news to find more than half of the bars in the city, and finally found the bar opened by Pei Shengwei.

Looking at the same street scene as in the photo, Wu Bin put the photo back in his leather bag and walked into the bar as a customer.

Lan Yecheng, who was making preparations for business, heard the sound of the door opening, so he looked in the direction of the door, and after seeing Wu Bin, he said very politely: "I'm sorry, this gentleman, our bar hasn't opened yet." ”

That's him! Wu Bin was overjoyed, he was sure that he had found the right place, this boy who was talking to him was the one who fought with Ning Zaiyu.

"Really? Then let me ask, what time does the bar open? Wu Bin deliberately pretended to be confused, and when he came in, he had already seen the business hours written on the sign.

"Seven o'clock in the evening." Lan Yecheng didn't pay much attention to this, he took all the wine from the wine rack and cleaned it bottle by bottle.

"Ah......" Wu Bin showed a hint of regret, "Is there still a bar open nearby?" ”

Lan Yecheng shook his head and said, "There is only one bar in the neighborhood a few streets. ”

"Oh." Wu Bin nodded thoughtfully, was silent for a moment, he looked at Lan Yecheng and pleaded: "I'm sorry, I'm not going well at work today, so I want to find a place to have a drink and let myself be quiet." I really don't want to go anymore, you can pour me a drink and I can pay double the price. ”

Looking at the man in front of him, except for the tightly knit brows, Lan Yecheng really couldn't tell that he was in a bad mood, but since the guests had all come in, he couldn't drive him out.

"Then you can sit casually, there is a wine list on every table, you can take a look, tell me what you want to drink, and you don't have to double the money." Lan Yecheng beckoned the guests to take their seats and said apologetically: "However, I still have work to prepare, I hope you don't mind too much." ”

"No, no." Wu Bin waved his hand again and again and sat on the bar.

Lan Yecheng was stunned, he didn't expect the guests to pick a seat at the bar, because it was full of wine bottles, if he wanted to be quiet, this was really not a good seat.

Forget it, guests can sit wherever they want. Lan Yecheng continued to be busy packing up the wine bottles.

"Bring me a bottle of Kronborg Triumph 1664." Wu Bin casually ordered a bottle of wine that was on the upper side, but it was not the most expensive. Other interviews are subsidized, and most of the expenses can be reimbursed, but this wine money is paid out of your own pocket.

To be honest, he really wanted to order the cheapest drink, but in order to have a better conversation with the young bartender, he had to get his favor, so naturally he couldn't be too stingy.

"Okay, please wait." Lan Yecheng took the white beer ordered by the guest, opened it and put it in front of him.

Wu Bin drank slowly, but he didn't rush to ask questions.

After drinking for a while, he took advantage of Lan Yecheng's lack of attention, quietly opened the recorder, pretended to be a little drunk, and said: "It's really difficult to support your family, and it's too difficult to serve customers now." ”

Lan Ye is used to seeing guests who start complaining after drinking a little wine, but he usually listens quietly and never talks.

Wu Bin saw that his words were like sinking into the sea, and he couldn't get any response from the other party, so he had to continue to take care of himself: "I was just a few minutes late because of the traffic jam, and he blamed me, I explained a few words to myself, and he actually wanted to do something to me...... It's really infuriating to think about, and if I could, I would like to teach him a good lesson. ”

While speaking, he kept observing Lan Yecheng's attitude, and when he finished speaking, he didn't find resonance from the other party's face.

After thinking about it, Wu Bin had no choice but to take the initiative to ask: "You must be working very hard to do this job, like me, I am just a customer who makes random requests, obviously the bar is not open, but I still don't leave." ”

Lan Yecheng shook his head slightly, he has been working in the bar since he dropped out of school, what kind of vexatious guests have never been seen, and guests like this are already considered good.

However, he only thought about it in his heart, and did not mean to vent his bitterness to the guests in turn.

Why is this kid's mouth so hard to pry open? Wu Bin was a little breathless.

He drank more than half of the beer in the bottle in one go, and waited for a while before pointing at Lan Yecheng as if he was even more drunk, and asked with a smile: "You are younger than me, and you look better than me to fight, you can honestly tell me, have you ever fought with a guest?" ”

Do it? Lan Yecheng immediately thought of Ning Zaiyu, who was the first person to do it himself, because he was jealous that he could live under the same roof with Chu Xinyi.

However, these things have long passed, and now they are not good friends, but at least they will not fight anymore.

Seeing Lan Yecheng's silence, Wu Bin raised the corners of his mouth lightly and continued to ask: "There are many celebrities in our city, and there are not a few of them who are bullying...... Quick, come and listen, have you taught those second generations of officials a lesson for the heavens? Rich second generation? Or a big star? ”

These words made Lan Yecheng a little alert, although he is not very old, after all, he has been working in society for a long time, and he is still in a complex environment like a bar, so even if he can't see people through, at least he can see a rough idea.

This man is not here for a drink, to meditate or to complain, he is here for a purpose.

Moreover, Lan Yecheng was almost certain that he was trying to find trouble with Ning Zaiyu. Abandoning the identity of a big star, there is only one person who knows that he has fought. So, who can it be if it's not Ning Jae-woo?

"I'm sorry, I wouldn't have done it to the guests, otherwise, I would have lost my job a long time ago." Lan Yecheng denied it, turned around and put the polished wine bottles back into the wine cabinet in turn.

Wu Bin looked at Lan Yecheng, although this child is not very old, it is really not simple, he seems to see his intentions, so his whole body exudes an atmosphere of rejection thousands of miles away, and it is clear that he doesn't want to ask him.

He protected Ning Zaiyu so much, he must have received the benefits of the Ning family, and he couldn't tell the big star about the fight.

In this case, I only have ...... Wu Bin opened his leather bag, took out one of the bundles of cash that had been prepared inside, put it on the bar, pushed it to Lan Yecheng, and said with a smile: "Take the wine money." ”

Lan Yecheng turned around to collect the money, but saw a stack of banknotes placed on the bar, which was about two thousand yuan.

"Fifty-eight dollars for beer." Lan Yecheng picked up a hundred-yuan bill and said, "Collect one hundred for you, look for forty-two, please wait." ”

"I guess you're waiting." Wu Bin stopped Lan Yecheng, pushed the remaining 1,900 yuan on the bar to Lan Yecheng, and said with him: "As long as you answer my question truthfully, the money is yours." ”

Lan Yecheng ignored Wu Bin, he walked to the cash register, took out forty-two yuan of change, and then walked back.

Putting the change on the pile of hundred-dollar bills, he guessed and asked, "You...... Is it a journalist? ”

"Little brother has good eyesight." Wu Bin pretended to admire, he took out his business card from his backpack, handed it to Lan Yecheng with both hands, and introduced himself again: "My name is Wu Bin, and I am a reporter from a magazine. ”

Lan Yecheng took the business card, put it on the money casually, and then looked at Wu Bin quietly, waiting for him to continue.

"I received news that Ning Jae-woo was making trouble here and injured the bartender...... I guess that bartender must be you, am I right? Wu Bin generously took out the hidden recorder and put it on the bar, "Little brother, tell me a good story, what was the situation at that time?" However, rest assured, no one will know that you are my informant, and I assure you in my credibility that even if the editor-in-chief wants to know, I will not tell him. As a journalist with professional ethics and conscience, I will definitely seek justice for you. ”

"I also hope that you can get justice for me, and I also want this money......" As soon as the words fell, Lan Yecheng saw Wu Bin's nodding again and again, and his eyes flashed with excitement. He pressed his business card and pushed it back to Wu Bin along with the money, "However, what you said never happened, if I lie, I will be accused of slander, and then the police will intervene in the investigation, I don't believe that Reporter Wu can keep a secret for me." ”

"Looks like you don't want to talk about it." Wu Bin sneered, looked at Lan Yecheng with disdain, took out another bundle of banknotes from his leather bag, and slapped it on the bar counter with a "snap", "Do you think you have less money?" Okay, I can add another three thousand to you. 5,000 yuan for a few words for you, no matter how you think about it, it's worth it, don't be too greedy. ”

"It's not a question of money or not, but there is no such thing at all, what do you want me to say?" Lan Yecheng took a step back, as if he was afraid that the money would dirty him.

"You little brother is really hard-mouthed." Wu Bin took out a few photos from his purse and handed them to Lan Yecheng, "If I don't have real evidence, how can I come to the door?" And found you all at once? Take a good look, the people in this photo are you and Ning Jaewoo, right? ”

Lan Yecheng didn't expect the other party to have a photo, he didn't stretch out his hand, but he clearly saw himself in the photo.

Wu Bin smiled and placed a few photos on the bar in turn, so that Lan Yecheng could see it clearly, and he couldn't deny it.

Seeing that Lan Yecheng didn't say a word, Wu Bin looked very proud, he pointed to the photo, and then pointed to the money, and said, "Did you accept the money and tell me the truth?" Or let me take the photo and write it casually? ”

Lan Yecheng was indeed a little overwhelmed, he naturally didn't want the reporter to scribble, but he also saw that this person named Wu Bin was not very good, no matter what he said, he would be used to deal with Ning Zaiyu.

If something happens to Ning Zaiyu, Chu Xinyi will definitely be annoyed, and this is the last thing he wants to see.

Just when Lan Yecheng was in a dilemma, he suddenly heard someone say: "If you want to publish the photo, you can send it, as long as the editor-in-chief of your magazine lets you send it." As for the content, you can write whatever you want and make it up as much as you can. However, we reserve the right to prosecute you. ”

Lan Yecheng and Wu Bin followed the voice and looked over, it was actually Chu Xinyi.
