Lu Huainian felt that she seemed to be relieved, and stared at Zhao Qi for a few seconds before retracting, there was one thing he had never personally confirmed with her.

"Zhao Qi, I also have something I want to ask you."

Lu Huainian walked from the side of the bed to the side of the bed, but did not look at her again.

Because of his back, Zhao Qi couldn't see any expression on his face. Obviously, Lu Huainian didn't say anything, and Zhao Qi already had a bad premonition in his heart.

Zhao Qi rarely had such a serious moment when he was with him, although Lu Huainian did not belong to the category of getting along very well, but at least it did not make Zhao Qi feel that he was difficult to get close.

The current atmosphere is obviously very weird, and in just a few sentences, Lu Huainian pauses far more often than usual. He has never been a man of ink, and he rarely did so in the past.

Zhao Qi was a little unsure of what he would say, but she clearly sensed one thing: she was already starting to get nervous.

Lu Huainian's voice came from far to near: "What are you approaching me for?"

Zhao Qi looked at him in disbelief, did he already know? When did he find out? Why did you choose this time to expose her?

Zhao Qi was silent, because this was a question she would not be able to answer at all.

As expected, Lu Huainian did not get any response.

When walking out of the hospital corridor, Guan Xi and Lu Huainian met, and the two looked at each other without saying much.

Most of Guan Xi's down jacket had a layer of snow on it, and the fabric on his shoulders was also mottled with snow stains, wetting his entire shoulders.

As soon as he heard the news of Zhao Qi just now, he rushed directly to the hospital from the newspaper.

Seeing Lu Huainian standing in front of him unharmed, Guan Yi was a little selfish and hoped that the person who was injured and lying in the hospital was him Lu Huainian. But in the end, it was Guan Xi who opened his mouth first, "Lu Huainian, how is she?" ”

When passing by, Lu Huainian turned his back and did not look back, "I don't know what your purpose is with Zhao Qi, but I hope you don't put her in such a dangerous situation again." There's no need to investigate me, there's nothing in me that you want. If there's anything you really want to know, wouldn't it be better to ask me directly?"

Guan Xi never thought that Lu Huainian would directly break through this layer so straightforwardly, and since he was poked in person, there was no need for him to hide it anymore. He was willing to say that he had saved some things.

Of course, Guan Xi has something he wants to do from Lu Huainian, and although there are similarities with what Zhao Qi wants to know, the reasons are very different. "Since Mr. Lu has said so, let's find a time to meet."

"Okay, I'll see you later."

The two figures who reached a tacit agreement, one in and one out, were only because of one person.

Zhao Qi was lying on the hospital bed, and Guan Xi saw it when he pushed the door in. "I heard you were scratched by that guy and had stitches?"

Zhao Qi didn't seem to be very happy and ignored him. Later, no matter how Guan Xi teased her, she didn't laugh.

Later, the first thing Zhao Qi said to him was, "Guan Xi, Lu Huainian knew that I was deliberately approaching him." ”

Guan Xi was also silent.

Zhao Qi laughed at himself a little: "Did you also guess?" Yes, how can my actions be flawless? ”

Knowing that it was impossible, Guan Xi still persuaded her with a hint of luck, "Zhao Qi, don't check your father's affairs, okay?" ”

"I can compromise and give up anything, but this one can't." For Zhao Qi, this matter alone is non-negotiable.

Guan Xi stopped talking, and Zhao Qi didn't take the initiative to talk again.

Both of them seem to live in their own worlds.

Mu Lang disappeared for eleven days and returned, and he said nothing about the events of those eleven days.

When the Qin Dynasty learned that he had returned safely, he flew back from the neighboring city that afternoon.

In the huge study, there are only two people, Qin Chao and Mu Lang.

"Old Mu, is something happening these days?" Mu Lang's sudden disappearance and the things left behind, a discerning person can know at a glance that he is ready, not to mention his old friend.

Mu Lang obviously lost half of his spirit when he came back this time, and the gray hair on his temples was obviously much older, and he was a little older. "He messaged me to meet him, so I'm waiting for him to take the initiative to go to the agreed place these days."

Who is this, needless to say, Mu Lang and Qin Chao both know it.

"What did he say? Do you want money?"

Mu Lang shook his head. "He didn't show up."

Mu Lang waited for him on that fishing boat for ten whole days, and he did not show up. This time, Mu Lang was completely in a passive state, and he could only wait for the day when the other party took the initiative to appear.

There is no other way.

"What kind of medicine is he selling in his gourd? Don't want money and don't show up? Then why did he contact you all of a sudden? ”

"Perhaps...... Maybe they're testing me. Or maybe it's already netted and waiting for me to walk in. "The temptation Mu Lang can understand, but the meeting was proposed by him, and the time was also set by him, and even the place was arranged by him, so what does it mean that he did not show up until the end?

Qin Chao knocked Mu Lang's leg with a cane, "Old Mu, at least say it before you leave next time, let me have a bottom in my heart." ”

hurriedly explained the will and left, Qin Chao really thought that something had happened to him. "What you explained, Lu Huainian has done it, and now it is a foregone conclusion. Ah Li has also returned from abroad, and the people who follow me every day are looking for you these days, and I just fell asleep for a while with my eyes closed. ”

Mu Chengli took the time to meet Zhao Qi last time, because she didn't want her to know about her family's situation.

All the other times, Zhao Qi followed Mu Lang, and wherever they went to find it, Mu Chengli went. In just ten days, Mu Chengli didn't know how many places he had run.

"Don't tell her to let her sleep a little longer." For his daughter, Mu Lang owes more money. Taking advantage of this incident, after the will was made, she suffered unnecessary sins in the future.

Before going, Mu Lang didn't think that he would come back, and it was a blessing to be able to come back.

Mu Lang looked at Qin Chao with a somewhat confused look in his eyes. "Lao Qin, when did you say the next time he asked me to see him?"

Qin Chao shook his head and sighed helplessly, what a sin.

When Mu Chengli woke up and passed through the study, she vaguely heard her father's voice, and excitedly pushed the door in. Seeing Mu Lang really standing there, she knew that she was not dreaming, and that her father was really back.

Mu Chengli rushed over crying, and there had never been a moment more than now that she felt so happy that she had been lost and regained.

"Dad, where have you been? Uncle Qin and I have been looking for you for so many days, you scared us to death, do you know! I thought, I thought you weren't there!" Mu Chengli cried and hammered his shoulder hard.

How scared she was, no one knew.

Mu Lang patted her on the shoulder like he did when he was a child, and comforted, "Silly child, I'm fine, Dad went to see an old friend these days." ”

Hearing the three words of old friend, Qin Chao sighed deeply, and the crutch in his hand gently tapped the ground. I didn't want to continue to disturb the father and daughter, "Lao Mu, you and Ah Li have a good get-together, I still have something to do to come to see you another day." ”

Before Qin Chao left, he glanced at Mu Lang meaningfully, and Mu Lang nodded at him, signaling him to feel at ease.
