Chapter 20: Shields
Angel's sudden gentleness made me stunned.
I feel that my face is very hot, and at this moment I am very sure that I am in love!
It was a wonderful feeling, as if at this moment, everything in the world was not important, and there was only this lovely person in front of me......
"Your face is red!"
A slight cunning flashed in Anqi's eyes, and she smiled like a little fox stealing chickens.
I angrily pulled her hand aside, and the tenderness that had just risen in my heart disappeared at this moment.
I got up and got out of bed, and after moving my body a bit, I felt better.
After washing up and eating, I wanted to say goodbye to Angel's father!
"You're leaving? Where to? Angel looked at me with some confusion.
I scratched my head and said with some distress: "I want to go to Lingnan to see if I can find my parents, Uncle Zong and they have never come back, I can't wait so long!" β
Before An Qi could respond, An Lie had already walked into the villa, sat directly on the sofa, and said, "Let's wait a while!" Lingnan is in a mess now, if you go over now, you are likely to be gnawed to the point that there are no bones left! Also, Lingnan is so big, do you know where to find your parents? β
I was speechless and drank the porridge sullenly.
An Lie took out a few photos from his pocket and put them on the coffee table.
I glanced at it, and suddenly lost my appetite because the things in the photo were so bloody.
It seems to be in the same place, and there are men and women in the photo, who died tragically. The causes of their deaths were similar, there was a large hole in the chest and abdomen, the internal organs seemed to have been hollowed out, and the necks were twisted, and they all died of terror on their faces.
"What are you showing me all this for?" I looked at An Lie with a frown.
An Lie pointed to the people in the photo and said casually: "These people, you don't know them?" β
As soon as he said this, I took a closer look at the people in the photo, and I immediately felt a little impressed.
When I was at the convenience store before, these people seemed to have come to the store, but after walking around the store, they bought something and left.
I looked at An Lie a little stunned, and said with some hesitation: "Over there in Lingnan? β
"Hmmm! Sort of, do things for some people over there in Lingnan! β
"Who did it?"
I'm curious, who has the ability to kill these guys from Lingnan, they are not ordinary people!
Could it be someone from the National Security Team?
No, even if the national security team did it to the people in Lingnan, they would not use such cruel means!
An Lie gave me a strange look, and pulled out a photo from his pocket.
The photo was blurry, and the figure in the photo could only be seen with a slight outline, but when I saw it, I stood up suddenly, and the blood all over my body seemed to rush to my head at this moment.
My body was still relatively weak, and I felt dizzy and almost fell down when I was so excited.
Angel hurriedly grabbed me and glared at An Lie.
An Lie shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly: "How did I know he would be so excited!" β
I took a deep breath, and after the dizziness disappeared, I looked at An Lie and said in a deep voice, "Where is he?" β
The man in the photo is none other than the snake scale man!
Also...... My father!
I hate to admit it, but the truth is a big joke on me.
An Lie shook his head and said, "I only know that he is near Sioux City, but I don't know where he is!" By the way, many people in Lingnan have also entered Sioux City, and there have been some conflicts with the national security team in the past two days, and your grandfather Zhou Zhenyao is also fishing in troubled waters in the middle...... Sioux City hasn't been this lively in a long time! β
I looked at the picture of the snake-scaled man and said to An Lie, "Can you find him?" β
An Lie responded: "It's not easy to find him, but it's easy to let him take the initiative to come to the door, just release the news that you are in An's house!" β
I took a deep look at An Lie, slowly sat back on the sofa, closed my eyes and pondered.
"Your real intention in showing me these pictures is to get him to come to the door, right?"
I opened my eyes, looked at An Lie with some harshness, and said in a deep voice, "What do you want to do?" Or what do you want to do when you settle down? Want to lure me over as bait? β
I don't want to admit that Snake Scale Man is my father, but I don't want to see him hurt either!
The bottom line is that I don't want to be counted on anymore!
"Third brother, is this what you mean, or is this what Daddy meant?" An Qi also frowned and stared at An Lie, as if she was a little angry.
An Lie sighed lightly, rubbed his brows, and said with a wry smile to An Qi: "It's none of your business, you turned your elbow out before you got married?" Rest assured, we have no ill will towards that person! β
Then, An Lie looked at me and said very calmly: "If I really want to use you as bait, I won't inform you about it!" Don't be too suspicious, meeting at An's house can ensure that you and him are safe enough, and besides that, the old man has some things he wants to talk to him about......"
Speaking of this, An Lie paused, waved his hand helplessly and said: "Forget it, I didn't say anything about this, if it weren't for you and my little sister, the An family wouldn't want to wade into this muddy water!" I knew this and let my dad say it, so I was not a human being inside and out, which is really unlucky! β
Seeing An Lie get up to leave, I hurriedly called out to him.
"Are you sure An Jia won't hurt him?" I asked uneasily.
An Lie snorted and said, "As long as he doesn't mess around with the An family, the An family will never touch a hair of him, don't worry!" β
"Okay, then please!"
After Anlie left, I collapsed on the couch, feeling very tired.
After comforting me a few words, Angel left the villa, as if to ask her grandfather something.
I clutched the picture of the snake-scaled man in my hand, and I was very conflicted, that is, I couldn't accept that he was my father, and I wanted to see him soon.
Three days have passed in a flash, and my strength has recovered, and my body seems to be much more dexterous and powerful than before, which makes me feel a little unable to adapt.
Can there be such a change after too much blood loss once?
I don't understand, I didn't continue to drill the horns!
The news of my home has spread, but the snake scale man never came, but someone from the national security team came once and wanted to see me, but was kicked out by Anqi.
Early this morning, Angel came to me and asked me to accompany her on a trip to Sioux City.
In her words, she was shopping with her, but I could tell that she seemed to have another purpose!
Anyway, I've been a little panicked in An's house these days, although Anqi's eldest brother was grounded, he still occasionally sneaked over to beat me, but my body was a little weak these days, and he didn't dare to do it.
There is also Anqi's second brother, that guy is even more insidious than his eldest brother, if it weren't for Anqi accompanying me these days, I guess I don't know how many beatings I would have suffered.
Only An Lie's attitude towards me was a little better, but he didn't see anyone all day these days, and he didn't know where he had gone.
Angel took me out of An's house and drove a supercar to Sioux City.
For a whole day, accompanying Angel shopping, shopping, and watching movies, we were like a couple, if only life could go on like this.
In the evening, Angel led me to a fancy restaurant, holding my arm and looking like a bird.
As soon as she did that, I knew something was going to happen!
Sure enough, after walking into the restaurant, Angel led me directly to a booth by the window, where a man was already waiting.
This man looks about thirty years old, sven, a bit like Angel's second brother's temperament. He was tall, very handsome, and well-dressed, and I suddenly felt like I couldn't get on the table compared to him.
"Your suitor? Use me as a shield? I asked in a low voice.
Anqi secretly pinched me, glared at me, and whispered: "Don't show me, he has been pestering me for a long time, let him die today!" β
"Okay!" I responded cheerfully.
Damn, dare to hit my future daughter-in-law's attention, I can't kill you!
"Senior brother!"
Angel greeted the man with a smile, and then dragged me to sit across from him.
"Senior sister, I've been waiting for you for a long time!"
He glanced at me, looked at Angel's hand holding my arm, his eyes shrank slightly, and he said with an unchanged smile: "This is ......"
"Hello!"
I hurriedly stretched out my hand to shake hands with him, and said with a somewhat embarrassed smile: "I've kept you waiting, my name is Zhou Yan, and I am Qiqi's fiancΓ©!" β
One sentence made him freeze.
Angel twisted me secretly, her face flushed, but she showed a hint of appreciation.
"This is my senior brother, the leader of the younger generation in Maoshan, Zhao Ling!" Angel smiled and introduced.
Zhao Ling came to his senses, and his eyes flashed with fierceness and anger when he looked at me, but he controlled his emotions very well, and said softly: "Senior sister, I haven't heard that you have a boyfriend!" When did an extra fiancΓ© come? β
Before Angel could respond, I smiled and said, "Kiki and I have known each other for a long time, met our parents, and have been ......together for a while recently."
When I said this, I pretended to inadvertently reveal the pattern of my wrist, and Angel also shook her wrist with a smile, and the pattern on her wrist was also seen by Zhao Ling.
Zhao Ling's face became ugly, he took a deep breath, smiled reluctantly, and said, "Then congratulations to Senior Sister for finding a good match!" Brother Zhou Yan, you have to treat your junior sister well in the future! Senior sister is a baby-like existence in our Maoshan Mountain, if you dare to bully her, our senior brothers will not let you go! β
Without waiting for me to respond, Zhao Ling said softly to An Qi: "After a while, Master's birthday, let's go back to Maoshan at that time!" Bring your fiancΓ© with you and introduce you to your brothers! By the way, I still have some things, I'll go first, I've already paid for it, so feel free! β
Zhao Ling got up, although she left very gentlemanly, but I obviously noticed that her hands were a little shaking, and there was murderous look in my eyes before leaving.
After he left, I looked at Anqi and sighed: "It's over, I'm worried about your senior brother, do you think he will beat me secretly with a cold stick?" β
An Qi nodded fiercely, smiled brightly, and said, "It is estimated that he wants to peel you and cramp you now, you should be careful when you walk at night in the future!" β
