XXXIII (4)

It rained heavily all night, and it was not until the sky slowly brightened that the sound of the rain gradually became quieter. Shen Qiangrose was lying on the hospital bed alone, although she closed her eyes, she didn't feel the slightest sleep, and she didn't rest for a whole day and a night.

She couldn't count how many pictures flashed in her mind, some about Su Huiyi, some about the old people and old things in the past, and naturally her younger brother, the young but stubborn younger brother.

But since I knew that he had passed away, thinking about it like this was like a world away. The sound of the rain outside sounded softly in her ears, sometimes mixed with the whimpering wind, her heart trembled slightly, and she hugged herself more and more tightly with her arms, but she felt more sad and sad.

The aisle was originally quiet, but now there was the sound of footsteps getting closer and closer, perhaps because it was too quiet, she had been carefully identifying the voice, until she got closer, and knew that someone was looking for her.

She knew that there were guards specially arranged by Qiao Yunhua outside, but in fact, it was just surveillance, and she knew in her heart that so far, she felt that there was nothing that she couldn't see through, maybe she could see people's hearts thoroughly with a pair of cold eyes.

She was thinking about it, but she heard the sound of conversation outside, "Miss Ruan, the young master said, you are not allowed to approach Miss Shen, please leave quickly." ”

Immediately afterwards, Ruan Hongyu's uncaring laughter came, "I'll come to see my old friend, what is there for him to be nervous about, could it be that I, an unarmed woman, can still kidnap Miss Shen and escape?" ”

The guard at the door refused her indifferently, "Please leave immediately." ”

Shen Qiangrose didn't want to pay attention to it, but a thought flashed through her intuition, and she said, "Let her in." After a pause, "If you don't let her in, I'll go out myself." ”

After a period of silence, the door was finally opened, Ruan Hongyu walked in in a good time, still dressed brightly, she closed the door, slowly walked over and sat on the edge of the bed, first glanced at Shen Qiangrose, and then said: "I thought that at this time, the person you least want to see is me." ”

Shen Qiangrose moved the corners of her mouth coldly, and said with a smile: "Why don't you see you, is it possible that I want to refuse to meet someone who is willing to tell me the truth?" Whatever your intentions, I want to thank you for your candor. ”

Ruan Hongyu laughed out loud, "You look very well cultivated, but in fact it's just hypocrisy, it's like this, you can still say words of thanks to me, isn't this a clear slap in the face?" I know that I can't stand you, you can complain about me in your heart, and you can annoy me, but what am I here for today, do you want to know? ”

Shen Qiangrose saw that her expression changed, knowing that she had nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, but she didn't bother to ask, she just kept silent and didn't speak. Ruan Hongyu sighed slightly, "Rose, I am a woman, although I am sometimes frivolous and pretentious, I may not be without that transparent mind. ”

She paused, "You've lost so much, even I, an outsider, can't bear to see it, are you planning to fend for yourself like this?" Don't you want revenge? Do you want to watch the wicked people who have harmed you and your family go free forever? ”

Shen Rose raised her eyes to look at her, "What do you mean by that?" It was true that her words raised a flame in her heart, as if something that had been unclear for a long time suddenly had a clue, and she was stunned and speechless.

Avenge? Yes, she wanted to take revenge at first, but at that time, Su Huiyi was too good and good to her, so that she forgot that she still had very important things to do, how could she forget the hatred of her parents, how could she forget the assassinations one by one! Now that she's alone, she's not afraid of losing, so what's not to do?

Thinking about it like this, I heard Ruan Hongyu say: "You are so smart, how can you not understand the meaning of my words?" Rose, I don't hide it from you, I do have a purpose, but it's not a contradiction, I can help you if you want. ”

Shen Qiangrose lowered her eyes and didn't speak, she knew that the person in front of her was not a simple person, she could maneuver between the Su family brothers and Qiao Yunhua with ease, she was destined to be a scheming person, should she unite with her? But now, even if she is a sword with a sharp edge, if there is no helper, then the blade will not be able to pierce the enemy's chest.

She knew this very well, thought silently, and then said: "I remember when I married him, he told me that he hoped that I would forget my hatred and live a relaxed and happy life, but on the other hand, he didn't want me to let go completely, he felt that it was too unfair to me, he said early on that if he wanted revenge, he would stay by his side, in fact, from the beginning, he had a heart to think that I would live better, even if it was to take revenge on his family, even if it was to take revenge on him, he was also willing. ”

She suddenly smiled bitterly, "But I gave up, now that I think about it, I'm afraid I got into his game at the beginning, it's me who is sober, and it's me who is confused." ”

Tears rolled out of the corners of her eyes, and she wiped them unnaturally before she raised her eyes to look at Ruan Hongyu, "Tell me, what do you want me to do?" ”

Ruan Hongyu was silent for a moment, knowing that she was willing to unite with herself, so she said, "Do you remember the token that your father left?" You also know that although the war situation in the south has slowly subsided, the war with Fusang is still scorching, as long as you get that token, the Su family will really be over. ”

It was only now that Shen Rose suddenly remembered the token that her father had left behind, yes, a pair of rose brooches, which were a birthday gift from her father, and the bane of their family, such a thing, at this point, she must get it.

She nodded, "I heard that my father deposited a piece of evidence of Su Shengbai's smuggling in Fusang's private bank, is this really so tight?" ”

Ruan Hongyu smiled, "Of course, this kind of thing is important, although it can't make much waves in the time of peace, but now that the situation is turbulent, once this thing sees the light, the Su family's power will be completely overwhelmed." ”

Shen Qiangrose couldn't figure out what was going on, originally there would always be a lot of shady things between warlords, but I was afraid that this kind of smuggling was not a secret among warlords, so why was everyone so jealous? Especially Su Shengbai, who killed her again and again, and even did not hesitate to get rid of his own grandson.

Hatred suddenly flashed in her heart, and she wanted to investigate this matter more and more, so she asked: "It's just a piece of evidence, how can there be conditions to destroy the Su family's forces, you tell me honestly, what else is left behind by my father?" ”

Ruan Hongyu glanced at her in surprise, but said lightly: "Rose, things in the political situation are not as simple as you think, once that kind of thing is exposed, no matter whether others are clear or not, domestic public opinion and foreign public opinion are enough to destroy the Su family's power." ”

She paused and said earnestly: "What's more, now that the people have called for democracy and freedom, and many patriotic young people have formed a new alliance, sooner or later, these forces will crush the rule of the warlords, and the world will soon be turned upside down." ”

Shen Qiangrose pondered the meaning of her words carefully, and suddenly remembered what Qiao Yunhua said at that time, he had also inadvertently said some angry words in his speech, which made her think that he was a patriotic young man for a while.

But thinking like this, she didn't know who was sitting in front of her, at that time Su Ziyu said that she was a person who killed people without blinking, but after a few contacts, she couldn't be sure, and thought about it quietly, before saying: "I don't know what your purpose is, and you don't have to tell me, but there is one thing, I hope you can confess to me." ”

Ruan Hongyu was not as cool as before, she just looked at her silently, and after a long while, she asked, "What?" ”

Shen Qiang Rose looked straight at her, "Actually, you did so many things for Qiao Yunhua, right?" ”

Ruan Hongyu stopped talking, wanted to smile, but her expression at the moment was stiff and couldn't deceive people, she turned her face, looked through the window, and saw that the rain outside was cloudy, the wind in the morning was a little strong, and the rain was scattered, the sky had already turned bright, and a circle of gray light came through the window.

After looking at it like this, he seemed to answer easily, "I'm not for him, I'm for myself." ”

Shen Qiangrose didn't know what to say at this time, and she didn't want to show sympathy or pity, so she just said lightly: "I'm also a woman, I understand your feelings." ”

Ruan Hongyu might as well tell herself this, seeing that the sky was slowly brightening, she was inconvenient to stay for a long time, so she looked at her cautiously and lowered her voice, "I'll pick you up tonight." ”

Shen Qiangrose glanced at her and nodded. She watched Ruan Hongyu walk out, only to feel that her mind flew out of the clouds, did she want to leave? Does she really want to choose such a path?

It's not that she didn't think about leaving freely, but from beginning to end, Su Shengbai refused to give her a chance, since she was destined not to get that stability, it was better to fight to break the net.

Just thinking of Su Huiyi, my heart still fluttered for no reason, I haven't seen him for a long time, what should I say when I meet again? Or didn't say anything, just looked at him coldly, which was the biggest punishment and revenge for him, right?

She suddenly remembered something, turned around and picked up the newspaper in front of the table, which was placed here by the nurse this morning, and half of the page was full of news about Su Huiyi and Gu Shiyi's marriage, and even the editor even ridiculed the names of the two people, saying something made in heaven and earth, and the unity of heaven.

She felt very funny, and asked coldly in her heart, "Made in heaven?" A match made in heaven? Now that she has reached this point, why does she want him Su Huiyi to be harmonious with others? She wouldn't be allowed! ”

Thinking so, he threw the newspaper on the ground. The sound of the rain outside was still dripping, as if it was about to stop, and the rustling ringing in her ears made her heart ache.
