[Chapter 3, Volume 3]
Section 118 Chapter 118 Showdown
Lu Xiang'er was very uncomfortable all the way from Zhichong Mansion to home, and she felt very uncomfortable. I thought that when I got home, I could stay quietly and alone for a while, so that she could sort out her emotions. But when Huo Qingsong's carriage stopped at the door, and Lu Xiang'er was about to help Lu Hong get out of the car, she saw the two of them walking out of Lu's house.
"Senior Brother Lu, Little Lady Lu, are you back......" Liao Wenbo and Qingya saw the two siblings, and their faces immediately showed expressions of surprise.
Liao Wenbo and Qingya, since Lu Xiang'er was kidnapped outside Jiangling Mansion that day, Lu Xiang'er and Lu Hong have never seen the two of them again. Seeing these two people at this time, Lu Xiang'er actually had a feeling of being separated from the world. Thinking of everything that happened in between, Lu Xiang'er's hatred, disgust, and bitterness seemed to dissipate at this moment. Now, the only thing Lu Xianger cares about is Lu Hong.
Lu Xiang'er turned her head sideways and saw that Lu Hong's expression was very complicated, and sighed softly in her heart. Glancing at Huo Qingsong quickly, Lu Xiang'er said to Chaoxia: "Sister Chaoxia, you first beckon General Huo to come in and sit down, we want to say a few words to them." ”
"Okay." Chaoxia nodded, and asked Huo Qingsong with her eyes if she minded. Huo Qingsong glanced at Lu Xiang'er, didn't say anything, and walked into the Lu family with an expressionless face. When he passed by Liao Wenbo, he glanced at Liao Wenbo. Huo Qingsong's eyes were undisguised cold, but Liao Wenbo replied with a gentle smile.
Lu Xiang'er saw Huo Qingsong follow Chaoxia into the courtyard, so she whispered to Lu Hong: "Brother, your injury can't be too tired, why don't I help you to sit in the carriage." ”
"No need. I'll just say a few words to her, so don't bother. Lu Hong let out a long breath, as if he had decided something. However, his spirit was not as good as it had just been. When Lu Xiang'er saw his appearance, she wanted to say something, but Lu Hong said again: "Xiang'er, I'm fine, don't worry about me." An old gentleman once told me that you can't grow up without experiencing something yourself. ”
Lu Xiang'er was slightly stunned, but nodded, let Lu Hong lean on the carriage, and then slowly walked to the side of the wall. Seeing Qingya walking towards Lu Hong with a look of joy and some guilt, Lu Xiang'er sighed lightly again and lowered her head. Although she doesn't care about Qingya anymore, but Qingya looks like this, Lu Xiang'er really doesn't want to see it.
And at this moment, a pair of men's shoes appeared in Lu Xiang'er's eyes. Lu Xiang'er knew in her heart who was coming, so she raised her head and chuckled: "I haven't seen you for a long time, Gongzi Liao is okay?" ”
"Xiang, little lady Lu, I'm so happy that you can come back safely." Liao Wenbo had a smile in his eyes, looked at Lu Xiang'er and continued: "In the past few days, Qingya and I will come to see if you come back every day. Although I knew that Senior Brother Lu was in Zhichong Mansion, I went a few times, but I was stopped back......"
Liao Wenbo said that in the past few days, he and Qingya were worried, and Qingya was also asking Lu Hong about his injuries. But Qingya talked for a long time, and she didn't see Lu Hong say anything, so her face became a little unnatural. She smiled and said softly: "Master Lu, is there something wrong with you, why don't I help you in to rest?" ”
"Qingya, oh, maybe your real name is not called Qingya." Lu Hong tugged at the corners of his mouth, wanting to smile. But no matter how you look at this smile, it seems to be full of bitterness. Lu Hong felt that he couldn't laugh, so he turned his head away and continued: "No matter what your name is, I will call you Qingya. Qingya, I only ask you one sentence, have you really had me in your heart. ”
"Young Master Lu, what's wrong with you?" Listening to Lu Hong's words, Qingya's smile slowly became unnatural. After Lu Hong finished saying the last sentence, she didn't look at Lu Hong either. Instead, she lowered her eyelids, making it impossible to see what she was thinking.
When Lu Hong heard Qingya ask him, he immediately laughed as if he was self-deprecating and mocking: "Qingya, although I, Lu Hong, am from a farming family, I can be admitted to Luming Academy from Qingshi County. Could it be that in your heart, I, Lu Hong, am the kind of stupid and stupid person? ”
Qingya still lowered her eyelids, but the corners of her mouth were raised: "Since Gongzi Lu has already determined what he thinks in his heart, why don't you tell Huo Qingsong about me." Is it because you don't have evidence yet, and you want to persuade me to go to Zhechong Mansion to surrender? ”
"I didn't expect that, I really didn't expect you to think of me like this." Lu Hong turned his head to look at Qingya, and his expression seemed to be a little excited. Just when he wanted to say something, he suddenly sighed softly: "There are some things that don't need to be said too clearly." Your little lady disregarded her own honor, courted me, a poor student, and gave me a fantasy...... Forget it. ”
"Lu Hong." Qingya raised her eyes to look at Lu Hong, with surprise in her eyes and a somewhat unknown look. But Lu Hong turned his head at the same time and took a deep breath: "Whether it's true or not, the elegance in my heart is the weak little lady who weeps by the mountain lake behind the academy." However, I will not trade the lives of my loved ones for that 'elegant' smile. Nowadays, for me, 'Qingya' is just a dream. When I woke up from a dream, I still have to continue to live my life. ”
"Lu Hong, you ......" Qingya stepped forward, as if she wanted to say something. Lu Hong didn't give her a chance to speak, waved his hand and said: "The 'Chen Wangyu Party' has all been destroyed, and the matter is over." You still go to Yangguan Road, I still cross my single-plank bridge, I hope you don't take the wrong 'road' again. And I will not take the wrong 'road' again, such a 'road' is enough to go wrong once. ”
Lu Hong nodded to Huo Bao in the distance, and slowly walked towards the Lu family with his support. During this period, Lu Hong never glanced at Qingya, nor did he stop and look back. Qingya looked at Lu Hong's already emaciated background and didn't look back for a long time. She wanted to speak several times, but stopped, and finally got into her carriage, and sat quietly inside, looking out in a trance.
Lu Xiang'er, who was on the other side, saw that Lu Hong didn't ask him to go back, so she also raised her foot and wanted to chase after her. But Liao Wenbo stopped her, and an anxious look appeared in his eyes: "Little lady Lu, can you listen to me for a few words?" ”
"Listen to what? I heard you say you didn't mean it, you just wanted to get my soju craftsmanship, but you didn't think that those people wanted to kill me? Lu Xiang'er looked at Lu Hong's background, and knew that he and Qingya had already made it clear, and they had already come to an end. Feeling the bitterness in his heart from Lu Hong's background, Lu Xiang'er was very distressed, so she had no scruples and looked at Liao Wenbo coldly.
Liao Wenbo had never seen Lu Xiang'er like this, so he hurriedly said: "Little lady Lu, there are some things you may not understand. Huo Qingsong has a grudge against our Liao family, and this time he ......"
"Liao Gongzi-" When Lu Xiang'er heard this, her eyes were also a little angry, and she said word by word: "Although Xiang'er has never gone to school or entered the academy, and is only fourteen years old now, Xiang'er can brew soju and create a Piaoxiang Wine Workshop. Could it be that Liao Gongzi thinks that Xiang'er is an ignorant woman and child and will listen to one-sided words. Moreover, Liao Gongzi, there are some things that need not be said too clearly, everyone is a smart person. ”
After speaking, Lu Xianger wanted to bypass Liao Wenbo, but Liao Wenbo blocked in front of Lu Xianger again. At this time, Liao Wenbo no longer had a gentle expression and elegant demeanor. Lu Xiang'er didn't care about this, she glared at Liao Wenbo and said, "Young Master Liao, do you really want everyone to tear their faces?" ”
"Little lady Lu, I'll say a few words at the last time." Liao Wenbo took a deep breath and said solemnly: "Little lady Lu, I admit that I approached you for the sake of the soju process, but I have never done anything to hurt you. Liao Wenzhuo also wanted to get the soju process, and also contacted the 'Chen Wangyu Dang', although I knew, but I didn't know that he actually did the kidnapping. Afterwards, I kept negotiating with Liao Wenzhuo, but he didn't let go at all, I really don't know where you are being held...... What is it? ”
Lu Xiang'er listened to Liao Wenbo's words, and was really a little bored, so she took out a few pieces of paper from her purse and stuffed them into Liao Wenbo's hands. After glancing at Liao Wenbo, Lu Xiang'er calmed down her mind before saying, "What you want most." With this, please don't appear in front of me again in the future. By the way, I would like to congratulate you on finally defeating Liao Wenzhuo and becoming the only son-in-law of the Liao family. ”
Liao Wenbo was stunned with the papers, but Lu Xiang'er bypassed him again. Lu Xiang'er said it so clearly, and the boredom in her eyes, Liao Wenbo didn't say anything yet, and immediately disappeared without a trace. Liao Wenbo turned around, watched Lu Xiang'er enter the courtyard, and suddenly stretched out his hand to touch his heart.
What kind of pain is that, Liao Wenbo can't tell you a little. It seems to be a bit like the heartache he felt when he was a child watching his biological mother being abused by his mother-in-law, and he hid in the shadows. However, this time there seems to be something more to the pain, as if there is a heartache at the same time, something has disappeared.
Liao Wenbo, who was depressed, slowly walked back to his carriage and sat next to Qingya. When the carriage drove slowly, Liao Wenbo's eyes moved, and he said softly: "Lu Hong and Lu Xiang'er are really smart and have already seen through us." However, she gave me the soju process, do you still plan to use the people in that roster to kill all the people in the Lu family. ”
Qingya didn't speak, but took out a booklet from her arms and opened it. In this booklet, there is a torn piece of paper, and at the front of the paper is the word Wang Zhen (Chaoxia's father). The paper is a little wrinkled, not at all like the paper in this booklet. It was the first to find this piece of paper that led to the booklet. It is also because of this that Qingya came to Jiangling Mansion and met Lu Hong.
Thinking of Lu Hong, Qingya remembered what he had just said. Originally, Qingya shouldn't have cared and continued to act according to her own plan. But why didn't she have any mood at this moment, and just wanted to sit by the lake in the mountain behind Luming Academy for a while.
Liao Wenbo saw that Qingya didn't speak, so he said again: "No matter what you do next, I won't make another move." It's the first time I've cared so much about a little lady, and I don't want to give up on her, county lord......"
