Chapter Seventy-Four: I Will Marry His Daughter.
For a few days, Tang Nian kept moving around the Tang family for his mother's medical expenses, but Tang Jingtian seemed to be missing.
No one can be found at all.
Lu Wanrou looked embarrassed, saying that she couldn't do anything, and after a few days, Tang Nian almost tasted the sadness of the world.
In the past, she had never been so difficult for money, food, clothing, housing and transportation.
Everything is easy to get, but now, with all my might, I can't touch it.
She didn't dare to go to Lu Shenfeng again, that man was very dangerous.
When there was no way out, she thought of Shen Xicheng.
This person has been with her childhood sweetheart for twenty-one years, although he has changed his mind, but if she asks him for help, will he not be indifferent?
Even if it's a charity for her, she wants it!
Because, she can't afford to lose her mother.
She stood in front of the hotel, looking at the jubilant atmosphere, hiding her tears, today Shen Xicheng and Lu Xin'er are engaged day.
Sitting in a luxury hotel in the heart of the city, this enviable engagement banquet is being held at this time, and the golden hall is full of celebrities in suits and leather dresses.
The piano music flowed gently, and in front of the piano in the middle of the hall, there was a woman in a white bandeau dress, her hair was pulled high, and the diamond crown on her high bun sparkled in the light.
The red lips were slightly pursed, and the slightly raised eyebrows were full of happy smiles.
While playing the piano, she looked at the handsome man standing beside her who was looking at her with tenderness.
The man is tall and straight, the knife-like silhouette is very handsome, the brilliance of the crystal lamp hits the face, and the facial features are three-dimensional and good-looking, and the man looks at the woman playing the piano, and the thin eyes become extremely soft.
The two of them looked at each other happily, and there was an indissoluble sweetness in their eyes.
These two people are the protagonists of today's engagement banquet, Shen Xicheng and Lu Xin'er.
After the song, thunderous applause resounded in the hall, Shen Xicheng gentlemanly stretched out his hand, held Lu Xin'er's hand, took her up, hugged her waist, dropped a kiss on her lips, and said softly: "It's so good to play." β
Lu Xin'er smiled shyly, and the two looked at each other happily.
The guests in the hall were all envious, and the talented women were a match made in heaven.
"Shen Xicheng, get out of ......"
The woman's sad voice suddenly sounded behind her, and it was extremely incongruous with the happiness and harmony in the hall.
Shen Xicheng's body stiffened for a moment, and when he looked back, he saw the woman who ran in from the door, soaked and embarrassed by the rain, standing in the golden hall, which was out of place with this place.
The discussion of the guests came and went, and everyone recognized it, isn't this Tang Nian, the sister of today's heroine Lu Xin'er?
Why is it so embarrassing, and tears are streaming down my face!!
Lu Xin'er, who was standing beside Shen Xicheng, saw Tang Nian who suddenly appeared, and a flash of panic flashed on her pretty face, and she obviously felt that Shen Xicheng was holding her hand and clenching it gently.
She waved Shen Xicheng's hand away, walked towards Tang Nian, took Tang Nian's hand with a distressed face, and asked anxiously, "Second sister, why did you make yourself like this?" β
As he spoke, he shouted to the waiter standing next to him: "Go and get a dry towel, don't let my second sister freeze." β
Tang Nian looked at Lu Xin'er, who was beautiful and full of nervousness in front of her, only to feel a wave of nausea in her chest, she withdrew her hand expressionlessly, took a step back, and reminded Lu Xin'er indifferently: "I'm not your second sister." β
Seeing Tang Nian's indifferent attitude, Lu Xin'er's eyes suddenly turned red with sadness, like a child who had done something wrong, and said at a loss: "Second sister, do you blame me for getting engaged to Xicheng?" Second sister, I'm sorry, it's my fault......"
Her annoyed appearance was so delicate that it was pitiful.
Shen Xicheng took a step forward and hugged Lu Xin'er's shoulder, rubbed her shoulder and whispered comfort: "Xinxin, don't apologize, you're not wrong." β
It's so tender that it's touching.
"But ......"
Lu Xin'er grabbed Shen Xicheng's hand and wanted to speak sadly, but was gently stopped by Shen Xicheng: "Be good, don't be sad." β
After appeasing Lu Xin'er, Shen Xicheng raised his head and looked at Tang Nian indifferently, with a cold tone: "Kind-hearted, how can you treat her like this as a sister?" β
Tang Nian stood there, everyone was looking at her with the eyes of a monster, contemptuous and contemptuous.
Her mind was blank, only Shen Xicheng asked indifferently, and she suddenly smiled: "She's kind? β
I thought it was ridiculous, but with a smile and a smile, she kept shedding tears and choked up: "If she is kind, if she knows that I am her sister, how can she do anything to rob her brother-in-law?" β
It's ridiculous, my childhood sweetheart's fiancΓ© is engaged and her sister!!
Hearing this, Lu Xin'er blamed herself even more, holding Shen Xicheng's hand and biting her beautiful red lips, holding back the tears in her eyes, this appearance made Shen Xicheng feel even more distressed.
"Tang Nian." Shen Xicheng said with a thin anger in his tone, accusing Tang Nian: "The matter between us has nothing to do with Xinxin, she has never robbed it, what I love is originally her." β
Like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, Tang Nian's footsteps were vain, looking at Shen Xicheng, he only felt that the person in front of him was extremely strange: "The person you love is her?" β
"Yes, it's always been her!!" Shen Xicheng replied very firmly.
"Then you have been lying to me for so many years, we have a marriage contract, you said that no matter what, you will marry me, Shen Xicheng, have you forgotten?"
Her marriage contract with Shen Xicheng has been more than 20 years since she was a child.
He swore that he would marry her, but after only a year, he changed his mind.
No, it was after her mother's accident that he changed his mind.
suddenly found that Shen Xicheng wanted to marry her, perhaps, just because of the Tang family.
Shen Xicheng's face was pale, and the man who had always been cold and thin said indifferently in order to protect his heart: "What age is it now, how can the baby be counted?" I don't take it seriously at all, why do you keep pestering me? β
Turning his face when he said it, Tang Nian looked at him with a pale face, and asked in disbelief: "I'm pestering you?" β
After so many years of affection, he actually said that it was her wishful thinking!!
She gave up the opportunity to study abroad for his promise to get married when he came back, but unexpectedly the family changed, her father brought her lover ~ wife home for many years, her mother had a car accident and became a vegetative person, she suddenly had an older brother, and a sister and a younger sister.
From a daughter who has been loved by thousands of people, she has become nothing.
And her fiancΓ©, whom she had loved for many years, also betrayed her and became engaged to her sister who fell from the sky.
"Tang Nian, stop pestering me."
Shen Xicheng hugged Lu Xin'er and turned around to go upstairs, Lu Xin'er, who was held in his arms, looked back at Tang Nian frequently, and his eyes were full of self-blame.
"Xicheng, don't go, I have something to look for you."
Tang Nian hurriedly caught up and wanted to hold Shen Xicheng's hand, she didn't come to him today to ask him why he betrayed her, she was in a hurry, her mother's illness couldn't wait any longer, except for Shen Xicheng, she didn't know who to look for.
Who knew that as soon as her hand touched Shen Xicheng, she was thrown away by Shen Xicheng, and the man looked back at her with disgust, with a contemptuous expression: "Tang Nian, you make me feel tired." β
Tang Nian raised his hand in a daze, his face pale.
Hearing Shen Xicheng's heartless words, he roared in his ears: "Send Miss Gu out, today is my good day, don't let the idle people wait to spoil their interest." β
Then someone came up and carried her out of the hotel, and the atmosphere of harmony and happiness was restored, and she was thrown out of the hotel.
It was raining outside, and she sat down in the rain, looked at the door of the hotel, and slammed it shut.
The two people inside the door were affectionate, and one person outside the door burst into tears.
"Little thing, why are you crying so sadly?"
The man's deep voice came from above his head, full of magnetism and sink, with some lazy smiles, and above her head, there was an umbrella.
Tang Nian raised his head tremblingly, and saw the unforgettable scene in his life.
The man came from the rain with a long body, a white shirt and a black suit, and he was quite noble.
Through the rain curtain, the man's deep and three-dimensional facial features were as delicate as carvings, and a shallow smile was on his thin lips, standing still in front of her eyes, at that moment, Tang Nian felt that what she raised her head to see was the gods.
He is like a god descending, and the noble bearing exuded from his body makes people dare not look at him directly.
This was the first time Tang Nian had seen Shen Yunshen.
He gave her the feeling that he was: calm, restrained, handsome, and noble.
He was holding a black umbrella, and her slender fingers were wrapped around the handle, and she thought to herself that a man could have such a beautiful pair of hands.
It was these hands that reached out and pulled her up from the ground.
Behind her stood a man holding an umbrella for her, who appeared to be his man.
Tang Nian knew that the man in front of him was Shen Yunshen, and in this celebrity circle, if anyone didn't know Shen Yunshen, he would be lonely and unheard.
However, before today, she could only see him in magazines and in the news, although she was born into a wealthy family, but, compared with a top wealthy family like the Lu family, one is in heaven and the other is on earth.
She never thought that when she was so embarrassed, it was Shen Yunshen who stretched out his hand to her.
"The tears of the girl's family are all pearls, they are very precious, and you can't shed tears casually." The man said in a deep voice, always in a calm tone, and handed her a white silk scarf, and the golden silk trembling Bo family logo on the corner of the plain white silk scarf was very conspicuous.
She didn't reach for it.
He didn't force it, he stretched out his hand to wipe away her tears, Tang Nian subconsciously stepped back, Shen Yunshen's raised hand was taken back casually, and he smiled lightly.
"Thank you!!"
She bowed to him, turned and walked away.
I came to Lu Shenfeng today to borrow 500,000 yuan from him to go back to my mother for treatment, but now she didn't borrow it, she was anxious, thinking that she had become what she is today, and she felt desolate and infinite, and she didn't want to stay longer.
She rushed into the rain curtain, not daring to look back, and stumbled away.
Special assistant Li Shang looked at Tang Nian's figure leaving in a hurry and then looked at Shen Yunshen, only to see him standing in place and looking at Tang Nian, the smile on his lips deepened a little.
Lowering his head slightly, he muttered to himself in a dumb voice: "This little thing, grown up." β
Slowly raised his head, smiled and said to Li Shang: "Now, they are all big girls." β
Li Shang was a little surprised, Mr. Shen actually smiled today, and not just once, looking at his eyes, there was a rich warmth.
When he thought of Tang Nian, he seemed to understand something, and asked tentatively: "Mr. Shen, you and Miss Tang are old acquaintances?" β
"Old knowledge?"
The man squinted his eyes and looked ahead, and there was a deep pondering in his eyes: "It's not just old knowledge!" β
Li Shang looked at Shen Yunshen in astonishment, and the man had already taken a step: "Let's go." β
"Mr. Shen, aren't we going to attend Young Master Cousin's engagement banquet?" Li Shang looked at the hotel in front of him, this was the purpose of their coming here.
"He made my little thing cry so sadly, how could I go to his engagement party!!"
The man's magnetic and deep voice reveals the unchanging uncertainty of ten thousand years, true and false, it sounds like it is difficult to distinguish.
"Uh......"
Li Shang hurriedly followed, Shen Yunshen had already gotten into the car, he followed and sat in the passenger seat, and the car slowly drove out, leaving the lively engagement banquet.
When the car drove onto the road, Shen Yunshen in the back seat suddenly opened his mouth.
He said very slowly and leisurely: "Go and ask Tang Jingtian to come and see me." β
Li Shang was a little surprised that Shen Yunshen was willing to see Tang Jingtian, and Shen Yunshen had always scoffed at a man like Tang Jingtian who relied on women to eat.
Tang Jingtian had visited Shen Yunshen many times before, but he had refused.
Unexpectedly, this time, he actually took the initiative to ask Tang Jingtian.
"Is Mr. Shen going to have dinner with him?" Li Shang couldn't figure out whether Shen Yunshen wanted to see Tang Jingtian because of private or official matters, so he asked.
"Yes."
Shen Yunshen replied quickly, and the corners of his lips rose slightly: "I want to marry his daughter!" β
Li Shang's eyes widened, stunned, and he didn't say anything more.
has been by Shen Yunshen's side for a long time, and he knows Shen Yunshen too well.
This man has always done what he said.
What he wanted, should have always belonged to him!
City A seems to be peaceful, not losing its color at all because of someone's disappearance, and people still have endless desires, planning to get what they want.
It's like Shen Yunshen, it's like Tang Nian.
At this time, the Bagan Desert was in a depression.
In the desert one after another, it seems that there is no end to the road, and people seem to be restless.
After waiting for about three hours, and still not seeing anyone come out of the underground stronghold that Zabamu said, Shen Zheng began to sit still, and just wanted to move, but was suddenly pressed by Jin Wu next to him.
"Wait."
Jin Wu seemed to be much more patient.
has been on duty and working in such an environment for many years, and for waiting in such an environment, Jin Wu has tempered more than just patience.
There is also a more resolute mind.
He concluded that the people inside would definitely come out.
Now it's up to whoever has the patience to wait.
Shen Zheng was pressed by Jin Wu, and his temper came up: "Wen Liang is not your person, you can wait, but she is my person, and now life and death are uncertain, we can only wait like this, when will we wait?" β
These words made Jin Wu angry all of a sudden.
He pinched Shen Zheng's shoulders and kicked a pair of bull's eyes in annoyance: "What kind of nonsense are you talking about, isn't she my person?" Don't worry that I'll need to spend my life here with you? β
As he spoke, he pointed to the sand dunes at the entrance and exit of the stronghold, and said angrily: "You don't know who that group of people inside is, they are doing evil in this place, just a few of us, what are you going to fight against?" β
According to Zhao Xiaodong and Zabamu's recollections, there were at least 30 people in this stronghold.
Zabamu was injured, they sent two people to escort him out, and now there are only thirteen people left, Zhao Xiaodong is basically useless, thirteen people and thirty people against each other, the odds of victory are too small, any death or injury is something they can't bear.
"Since you are so powerful, then you go, I won't stop you, I can't find Wen Liang for a long time, and then I will take you on the hook, I will report it, and then find someone to find your body!"
Jin Wu was also angry, and his tone was much heavier.
On the contrary, after being scolded by him, Shen Zheng's anger became much less.
Zhao Xiaodong, who had been watching tremblingly from the side, didn't dare to say a word just now, and when he saw that Shen Zheng's anger had also disappeared a little, he whispered to Shen Zheng: "Team Shen, Team Jin has said it to the end, we can't hit a stone with an egg." β
"Do you know that it's an egg hitting a stone?"
Shen Zheng kicked Zhao Xiaodong and sneered: "These things are all caused by you." β
This time, Zhao Xiaodong was also aggrieved.
Although it is indeed his fault that Wen Liang is uncertain about his life and death now, if he doesn't come, according to the rules of the bureau, when will anyone find this place?
Who can be responsible for Li Xiaoyue's life and death?
His eyes were red, and he didn't argue with Shen Zheng, but his heart was dripping blood.
Seeing him like this, Shen Zheng naturally knew that his words were a little heavier, and patted Zhao Xiaodong's shoulder silently, and several men fell silent again.
In the current situation, no one knows what to do.
Seeing the time pass little by little, from morning to evening, there was still no one inside.
"There's something wrong with this."
Even Jin Wu began to mumble.
Originally, he was sure that he would definitely gain something by waiting here, but he didn't expect that they had been squatting outside for so long, and no one had come out, which was too strange and somewhat inconsistent with his conjecture.
After waiting all day, everyone's face began to show a tired look.
They are all hesitating to continue waiting.
Shen Zheng opened his eyes and looked at the entrance of the stronghold, which was so quiet that there was no sound at all, and then turned his head and asked Jin Wu, "What do you think might have happened?" β
Jin Wu didn't speak, just looked ahead.
Zhao Xiaodong next to him leaned over and said, "Could it be that they have discovered us?" β
A sentence woke up the dreamer, Jin Wu and Shen Zheng looked at Zhao Xiaodong in unison, the emotions in their eyes were very complicated, this look made Zhao Xiaodong feel that his words were exactly what Shen Zheng and Jin Wu were afraid of.
