Rolling heat wave (3)

"I guess you all know about Yuan'er, so I don't need to introduce more." Ke Tianxu pulled Ling Xiao to sit down behind the vacant desk opposite Gu Minluo, and then briefly introduced Ling Xiao to the few people present one by one.

Gu Minluo was originally drinking tea plainly, but his expression was stagnant when he raised his eyes, looking at the unusually eye-catching kiss marks on the neck of the woman opposite, his eyes showed a trace of unbearability, and he felt a little guilty about this woman in his heart. If it weren't for his poisoning and coma for a few days, he would have tried to stop it, but it was too late by now. He only hoped that Jiang Tingxue wouldn't blame him, but he couldn't keep the person she cared about the most.

Ling Xiao was surprised, she actually saw the unbearable in the eyes of the strange man who frowned slightly, it was unbearable for her, without a trace of malice. But she didn't seem to know him.

Gu Panman silently stared at the two people who looked at each other, and at the same time noticed a small cloud of crimson on the snow-white neck, and there was a sense of pleasure in his heart. Hmph, this woman still can't be Gu Minluo's woman after all. Sometimes, she doesn't want to kill, especially for women, and now like this, it can be regarded as following her heart, which is the best of both worlds.

Of course, Ke Tianxu also noticed the change in Gu Minluo's expression, and became more and more convinced of Gu Panman's judgment that day. At this time, although he felt a little guilty, he did not regret arresting her, what he really wanted to humiliate was Yeonlingzhan, and he didn't know about Gu Minluo's past with her at that time.

It was Xun Yang, who was happy to watch the play, and looked at everyone's expressions in his eyes, but he was silent, with a faint smile of unknown meaning on his mouth.

As soon as they got together, the atmosphere between the few people became strange. Gu Panman looked at Gu Minluo's hand holding the teacup and didn't move in front of her, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but smile, and she raised her eyebrows and said, "Minluo, your vitality has not yet recovered, but your body is not feeling well?" ”

"No problem. Now that Brother Ke and they have arrived, tell someone to pass the meal. Gu Minluo, who came back to his senses in a light call, immediately removed the slightly changed expression on his face, put down the tea cup in his hand, looked at Gu Panman, and shifted his attention to lunch. It was he who had lost his temper just now, showing emotions that were inappropriate to show, but he didn't want Gu Panman and them to notice more abnormalities.

Gu Panman's expression was calm, but there was a hint of a smile hidden at the corner of his lips, and he turned his head to his personal maid and ordered, "Go and tell them to pass the meal." ”

The maid nodded and bent her knees slightly, hurried out with broken steps, and it didn't take long for her to lead a group of maids in to remove all the tea and fruit snacks on the case, and replace them with all kinds of wine and delicacies, and the fragrance was permeated.

Ling Xiao looked down at this jade plate full of shame, although the dishes were **, but she didn't have any appetite. She never thought that these ruthless wicked people would enjoy hiding on this cliff, and their food, clothing, housing and transportation were no worse than some nobles. Come to think of it, what they squandered was just ill-gotten gains, and all the bad things were done by these people.

"Brother Ke, on today's birthday, I will first pay tribute to you, and I wish you and Princess Liwu can grow old together and love for a lifetime." Gu Minluo took the lead in raising the wine cup, looked at the other side calmly and indifferently, and saluted the two of them.

Gu Minluo's words were tasted by Ke Tianxu in his heart, but after all, he was not sure whether what Gu Minluo said was sincere, just because he couldn't hear anything else from Gu Minluo's tone, but he didn't believe that Gu Minluo could really be so relaxed. At the same time, he also raised the cup very calmly and drank it with Gu Minluo with a light smile.

Gu Min waited for this cup to drink, and then took care of himself to lift the jade pot and pour a cup, squeezed it with both hands, stood up and saluted everyone: "This one, I am bidding farewell to you." Do it first for respect. ”

"What? Minra, are you leaving? But now the situation outside is not favorable to us, but I am afraid that the road is dangerous. Do you have to go? Ke Tianxu's hand that was about to serve the wine cup paused, and his face could not hide his surprise. At this time, everyone knows what kind of danger they will face when they go out.

The guilt in Ke Tianxu's heart grew stronger, thinking that Gu Minluo was trying to avoid some things, and he couldn't face the woman he liked and stay with others, so he chose to go away.

It's just that Ke Tianxu is worried that his inadvertent move may harm this friend. It seems that he was not thoughtful at the beginning, but now it is too late to say anything. If the woman next to him can't become a real husband and wife with him, then Gu Panman will definitely not let her go, and she will have to worry about her life. Besides, if she is caught, he can't let her go anymore, if he lets her go, how will he have face? Moreover, even Gu Panman will not give up.

Gu Minluo held the wine cup and raised his head slightly to drink it all, his face was calm, and he shook his head slightly and said, "It's okay, Brother Ke doesn't need to worry." This is something I have decided to do a long time ago, and I really have to go. As for the journey, I will be cautious. Now that the father-in-law is in retreat, the matter in the cliff has to worry about the three of them. ”

"This is nature, and we will do our best to share the worries of the cliff owner. Along the way, you need to pay attention to safety. Xun Yang smiled easily, and his eyes changed imperceptibly. The splint on his arm had not yet been untied, and the outside was wrapped with thick gauze, and in such a hot weather, only he knew how many layers of heat rash had grown on his arm.

"Minara, I wonder where you want to go? It's better to be a few months late, and it's not too late to leave when the wind outside is quieter. Ke Tianxu said that he would stay, and just watched his friend walk alone, he was really worried, afraid that something would happen to Gu Minluo.

Gu Minluo looked indifferent, glanced at a few people, and said, "I haven't been back to Anyang County for two years, so it's time to go back and have a look." I already know your kindness, but don't worry, I'm measured. ”

Seeing that Gu Minluo's attitude was so resolute, Ke Tianxu secretly sighed softly, it was not good to dissuade him again, but when he said that he would send Gu Minluo and practice it with him face to face.

A lunch, in addition to being mixed with some weird atmosphere, several people used it quite harmoniously on the surface, and talked happily with each other. It's just that Ling Xiao didn't say anything from beginning to end, and the delicious food in front of her was not moved by her chopsticks a few times, and the dishes that Ke Tianxu sandwiched into her bowl were directly ignored by her. Halfway through, Xun Yang and Gu Panman wanted to drink with her, but they were stopped by Ke Tianxu.

In the face of these jade plates, thinking about some of the things that these people have done, how can Ling Xiao still eat these with peace of mind. Not to mention anything else, a year ago, she witnessed the tragic situation after the destruction of Liu's mansion, with corpses all over the field and blood sprinkled all over the court. And the culprits are these people in front of them, how ruthless they are.

Ling Xiao thinks that his temperament is also cold, and he often shows indifference to things that have nothing to do with him. But even so, she couldn't ignore the cruel methods of these people, let alone carry out a murder without injustice or revenge. In the face of that cruel scene, anyone with a little conscience will be angry. What's more, these people have also besieged her and Lu Jingxing twice, and in the face of the enemy, she will not lower her posture. The man next to her wanted to possess her, it was a dream.

This is an excellent place to escape the summer, after a few people have lunch, there is no major matter to deal with, so they stayed for about an hour, tasted tea is very leisurely, and finally dispersed.

After Ke Tianxu sent Ling Xiao back to his residence, he didn't stop long, and turned around and went out again, not to the study, but to see Gu Minluo alone. He took the initiative to tactfully break the matter, only hoping that Gu Minluo would not take risks, but he found that he had an oolong with Gu Panman, and it turned out that the woman in Gu Minluo's mouth that day was not the person he snatched back.

And Gu Minluo also spoke bluntly to Ke Tianxu without reservation, revealing the relationship between his beloved woman and the person arrested by Ke Tianxu. In the end, he sighed lightly, since he couldn't let it go, then he only hoped that Ke Tianxu could treat Ling Xiao well, and not force her to do what she didn't want to do, she needed to be willing.

For this reason, Ke Tianxu not only regarded Gu Minluo as his friend, but he also regarded Gu Minluo as a real young master. Since Gu Minluo entrusted him with such instructions, he happily agreed to these requests of Gu Minluo, and would never break his promise.

In the evening, as soon as the two of them had dinner, the maid who was waiting for Ling Xiao excitedly took out a brocade box from the cabinet and sent it to Ke Tianxu, and said with a slight downward gaze: "Door master, this is a birthday gift from Madame." ”

Ke Tianxu took the brocade box and opened it, and his eyes suddenly widened a little: "Belt? Interesting, the embroidery is pretty good. There is Mrs. Lao, and the husband is very satisfied. ”

The warm yellow light was reflected on the faces of the two, Ling Xiao's expression was indifferent, but Ke Tianxu had a strange smile on the corner of his mouth, and deliberately put the belt into Ling Xiao's line of sight, turning it over and over. He didn't believe that what he was doing was done by the people next to him. How could a person who almost ignored him suddenly give him something. Besides, even if it was really given by her, he didn't dare to accept it, so he didn't allow her to do anything inside, planning to murder her husband.

"The old cook in the dining room gave it to you, she has a heart." Seeing that Ke Tianxu was holding the belt and comparing it at his waist, Ling Xiao's face was calm and calm, and he said this fact lightly.

Ke Tianxu's playful smile condensed at the corners of his mouth, and the maid in front of the case was directly choked by her own saliva, coughed lightly, and looked strange. Neither of them knew what to say, and they were full of slander, knowing that it wasn't from you, but don't say it so seriously, okay, it's better to save some face. This is directly dismantling the stage of the two, and no matter how you hear it, it makes people feel awkward, and it really conveys several layers of meaning.

After the maid came back to her senses, she secretly glanced at the face of her doorman who could not see joy and anger, and felt that her back was sweating. This incident was done by herself, but it made her family owner lose face. If the head of her family is angry with her, then her good days will come to an end.

In the end, however, the maid was only a false alarm, and her master did not show displeasure, and waved her away after handing her the belt.

The door creaked and closed softly in the maid's hand, and there was no one else in the room. Ke Tianxu turned to the side, looked at Ling Xiao's slightly lowered face, and asked with interest: "For her husband's birthday today, doesn't Yu'er have something to send?" ”

Ling Xiao's expression was indifferent, and he glanced at Ke Tianxu slightly, and then lowered his eyebrows again, with a hint of a smile in his tone: "Of course there is." You'll have to wait a few more days for this surprise. ”

"Well, it seems like it's been a little too long, and it's a little hard to wait. Why don't you give it to me? Ke Tianxu said as he reached out and lifted Ling Xiao's chin, forcing Ling Xiao to turn his head to look at him. He looked at this cold and beautiful face without any emotion, and slowly lowered his head. It was the first time in a long time that he wanted to kiss her thin lips. He thought that even if this woman was made of stone, he would have to slowly polish it into his own jade, and the days ahead would be very long.
