Chapter Twenty-Three: Intricate Triangular Relationships
Yishui Yuan villa study.
Han Wei leaned back on the sofa, his eyelids drooping slightly. He had just opened a bottle of '82-year-old Lafite, and he wanted to numb his nerves with the anesthesia of alcohol.
Damn, how can red wine get drunk? His mind was clearer than ever, and his heart was torn apart......
The man walked over to the wine cabinet, took another bottle of Rémy Martin-Louis XIII, filled the goblet with a glass, and took a sip of it. He choked on the spicy wine and coughed violently......
I don't know how long it took, but he drank half a bottle of foreign wine. Putting down the wine glass, his head was a little dizzy, his slender fingers supported his high forehead, and his peach blossom eyes were drunk. The inky pupils were eclipsed, without a hint of gloss, hollow and full of sadness.
At this moment, a dull knock sounded on the door, and the man roared angrily, "Who? ”
"Han Shao, it's me...... Wang Bo. Wang Bo said in his heart: Uh, this voice ...... A posture of not giving up without scaring people to death, it seems that Han Shao will be furious tonight.
"Come in!" The man's cold voice came from inside the study.
Wang Bo pushed the door in, the strong smell of wine in the study rushed in, he stood in the position where he had just entered the study, hesitated and did not step forward......
The man stood up angrily, walked up to him, and roared, "I didn't let you pick her up, where did the people go?" ”
"Han Shao, my car was tampered with and thrown in the middle of the road and broke down...... Signal jammers were also installed on the car. ”
Wang Bo looked at the man's more cloudy face, and said urgently: "The car is Zhou Yanwen's hands and feet. And also...... I have called up the surveillance outside the auction hall, Miss Mu is in danger, and it is Li Mubai who saves him. I have a copy of the monitoring here, Han Shao, take a look! ”
The man took the iPad in his hand, and when the surveillance screen clearly showed the little woman's face, the alcohol in his body seemed to be half awake.
The little woman stood tremblingly on the steps outside the hall. After a long time, Li Mubai appeared, and they didn't know what they were whispering. The little woman took out the mobile phone in her bag and made anxious calls, but she didn't get through.
Phone...... What about his phone?
The man fumbled with his phone in his trouser pocket...... No, rummaging through the suit jacket still didn't.
"Come with me to the Emperor."
"Okay, Han Shao." ……
Royal Hotel.
Li Mubai's nose had stopped bleeding, and he walked to Mu Xiaolei's side and squatted down.
"Little junior sister, don't cry, I'll explain it to him clearly."
"No need, senior. Even if it's explained clearly this time, what about next time? He didn't believe me at all, and he ...... Why be together? Mu Xiaolei raised her head, her side face was as delicate as jade carving, her apricot eyes were red and swollen, tears were swirling in her eyes, her long and slightly curly eyelashes trembled gently, and tears still slipped down her cheeks.
"Let's go wash your face, it's not beautiful to cry."
Pretty? What's the use? She laughed at herself in her heart, he also said that he was so beautiful......
The mist rising from under her eyes burst out again......
She didn't overdo it, stubbornly wiped away her tears with her hands, come on! Mu Xiaolei, everything will pass.
"Well, senior, I'll go to the bathroom."
He nodded and said lightly to Ji Lei: "Go out and buy a few suppers and come back." ”
……
A blue Lamborghini pulls into the Emgrand Hotel. The man turned off his iPad, leaned lightly on the back seat, closed his eyes tightly, and his heart was full of thoughts, and his expression was still indifferent and detached.
He went up to the 38th floor alone, walked to the door of the hotel where Mu Xiaolei was, and stopped. Slowly raised his hand, but still put it down. How could that little woman easily say the breakup?
There is only one door apart, but at this moment they are so far away.
The man turned and disappeared into the dimly lit corridor of the hotel......
Mu Xiaolei washed her face, tied her long hair into a high ponytail, and changed into the casual suit brought by Ji Lei before walking out of the bathroom.
"Senior, thank you so much today." She was plain-faced, and her face with delicate makeup was a little greener. The eyes are slightly red, the eyes are clear, and the slightly rotating eyes reveal a layer of dream-like brilliance, pure and moving.
Li Mubai lost his mind slightly, "Don't be so polite, little junior sister." By the way, are your injuries healed? ”
"It's almost fine, and I'm going to go to the hospital tomorrow to get the stitches removed. If it's okay, you can go to school in the afternoon, it's been a few days of class, otherwise you really can't keep up. She smiled wryly helplessly.
Her mind flashed to the man's face, and she didn't know what he was doing now? What to do? I just broke up, but I miss him so much...... I really miss him...... A heavy overhaul rose in her eyes again.
Li Mubai saw her sad mood, and somewhere in his heart sank.
"I'll accompany you to the hospital tomorrow." There was a bitterness creeping up in his heart.
"You don't have to go to school, senior? And is the injury on your back healed? It's all my ......" Her tears overflowed again, don't look over, wipe them gently.
"Why are you crying again? Don't cry...... Let's go, let's go out, I'll take you to a good place. There was a glint in his dark blue eyes, as if the afternoon sun was dazzling.
Mu Xiaolei nodded.
Li Mubai changed into casual clothes and carried a coat in his hand, and they walked out of the hotel side by side.
The night was hazy and quiet, and the sky was like a large sheet of ink smeared in the clear blue ocean. The rain finally stopped, and there was still residual rain on the branches, and the crisp sound of the raindrops falling from the leaves to the ground was beautiful. The faint floral scent mixed with the moist smell of the earth is very pleasant.
They went down the steps, and Li Mubai draped the black coat in his hand over her length.
"It's a little cold on the night just after the rain, be careful of catching a cold." The corners of his mouth rose slightly, and his dark blue eyes looked at her tenderly.
Mu Xiaolei inadvertently turned her head sideways, but saw the Lamborghini slowly passing by them, and the rear window rolled down. The man's cold eyes scanned her, like a sharp sword stuck in her heart, which made her heart ache!
Mu Xiaolei stretched out her arm, and before she could say anything, the Lamborghini was gone. Her tears rolled down uncontrollably, her arms hung down, her teeth biting her lower lip slightly and trembling gently......
He...... Or left, away from his side. At this moment, Mu Xiaolei regretted it very much, why did she break up with him? Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, she can explain it to him, it doesn't matter if she doesn't listen, as long as it ...... It is enough to stay with him......
Li Mubai's eyes slipped a trace of obscurity, and he stepped forward and hugged her in his arms without saying a word.
The slender fingers of the man in the car clenched into fists, and the green tendons burst out, feeling that he had lost the most important part of his heart, no, he didn't want it! He was really reluctant, he couldn't bear that little woman, he wanted to get her back......
"Wang Bo, return to the Emperor!"
Lamborghini made a U-turn on the wide road and sped by.
As soon as the sports car drove into the hotel gate, Wang Bo stopped, glanced at the man through the rearview mirror, and didn't say a word.
The man rolled down the rear window and saw a picture of Mu Xiaolei and Li Mubai hugging each other......
Wang Bo looked at the man in the rearview mirror and leaned on the back seat silently. The dim light made it impossible to see the man's expression. He resignedly said, "Han Shao...... We? ”
"Return to Yishui Garden." The man said in a low and cold voice.
The car starts its engine and flies away.
The man frowned sideways, closed his eyes in pain, and a tear slipped quietly......
The Fourth People's Hospital of City C.
Mu Shaoqiang's mobile phone vibrated slightly under the pillow, a trace of panic flashed on his face, and he quickly calmed down. He said with a gentle smile on his face, "Mom, I'm a little hungry right now, why don't you go to the convenience store on the first floor and buy me something to eat?" ”
"Why are you hungry lately at night? Well, for you to buy. A gentle smile appeared on the woman's delicate face, and a few wrinkles appeared at the corners of her eyes as the vicissitudes of time passed.
"Mom, you've worked hard with me......"
"What do you say...... It's a lot of old people. With tears in her eyes, she turned to go out.
Mu Shaoqiang heard the footsteps moving away, so he took out his mobile phone under the pillow.
"What? You're so busy flirting with that old woman that you don't even bother to answer my calls? A snarky female voice came from the other end of the phone.
"How can I have that heart? Don't think about it. Besides, my legs are all the same now, what else can I do? ”
"Hmph, you can't do that...... Shaoqiang, people just miss you. The woman's voice snorted.
"Well, bear with me for a while, I've already hired foreign experts, and it won't be long before my leg recovers."
"Well, that's pretty much it, you'll have to compensate me when the time comes!" The woman let out a few sharp laughs and said, "By the way, there's one more thing to tell you, they've ......"
At night, in the empty corridors of the hospital, the footsteps from far to near gradually became clear.
"I can't say she's back!" Without waiting for the other party to reply, Mu Shaoqiang hung up the phone in a hurry, and pressed the phone under the pillow.
"Shaoqiang, there is nothing good to eat at the convenience store, I bought you a few breads, can you eat them?" Liang Yurou, who pushed the door in, said softly.
"Mom, it's not like you don't know that I don't like sweets. Forget it, I'm not that hungry now. ”
"Thank you for your hard work!" As he spoke, he took Liang Yurou's hand and put it in his rough palm.
"Have you ever regretted following me for so many years?"
"What's wrong with you today? The child's father will always say something inexplicable. She smiled and buried her head in her husband's shoulder, looking at him softly. It's hard work to follow you, but I've never regretted it. ”
The man hugged her tightly in his arms......
