After some interrogation, Shang Yucheng called Lu Jingcheng, and with the intervention of the Lu family, she, a witness who could not say anything, was finally released and returned to her home in Shanghai.

"Yucheng. Are you okay? Lu Jingcheng waited at home early in the morning, and when he saw her, he greeted her with a worried and distressed look on his face, took the luggage in Shang Yucheng's hand, and asked with concern.

Shang Yucheng looked at Lu Jingcheng, and for some reason, he felt a trace of guilt in his heart.

"I'm fine." She replied softly, and then let Lu Jingcheng hug her into his arms.

"I'm sorry!" Shang Yucheng said in a sullen voice, "I don't know what happened at home, and when I found out, I wanted to rush back immediately, but something like this happened on the way——"

"I know." Lu Jingcheng stroked her hair, "Needless to say, you must be frightened." If I hadn't made you angry, you wouldn't have gone to Nanjing, let alone suffered these crimes, it was my fault. ”

Lu Jingcheng's words were sincere, after Lu Jingpeng was arrested, although he was busy mediating, this incident brought him not trouble, but the feeling of being needed by the family. Now that Lu Jingpeng has been released, it is difficult to get ahead in the Lu family for a while, but he has been affirmed by his father and has made a beautiful turnaround.

These proud things made Lu Jingcheng much more lenient, and his suspicion of Shang Yucheng also decreased a lot. So he didn't need Shang Yucheng's apology at all, but because of what happened to Shang Yucheng, he comforted her in every way and was considerate to make up for the emotional rift caused by the last quarrel between the two.

After two days of peace, Shang Yucheng went to school.

After the class, Shang Yucheng left in a hurry as usual. As soon as she got out of the school gate, she saw Ye Shen's luxurious black car at a glance, and a handsome man standing against the car, smiling and high-spirited.

Although she was worried in her heart, she was afraid of arousing the suspicion of others, so she didn't dare to go out to inquire about Ye Shen's news in the past two days. At this time, seeing him standing in front of him safe and sound, he couldn't help but show a look of joy.

Ye Shen saw the smile on Shang Yucheng's face, and couldn't help but move the corners of his mouth, smiled at her, stood up straight and said, "Shang Yucheng, don't come unharmed." ”

After seeing Ye Shen's excitement for a moment, Shang Yucheng quickly came back to her senses, and the smile on her face was perfunctory, "Mr. Ye, don't come to harm, right?" ”

Ye Shen took a few steps closer, stood in front of Shang Yucheng, and explained in general, "Nanjing has been delayed for two days, and I only came back today." ”

Shang Yucheng looked at him and said lightly, "Mr. Ye has always been busy with affairs, and everyone knows about this. ”

Ye Shen looked at her expression with some confusion, "You-" paused and changed his words, but what did I do to make you unhappy? ”

It seems to have been disguised excessively. Shang Yucheng adjusted his expression and his smile widened, "Of course there is no Mr. Ye, you misunderstood." I missed classes for a few days and missed the class, but today I was in a hurry to talk a lot, and I was a little tired. ”

Ye Shen looked at her suspiciously and did not speak.

Shang Yucheng sighed in his heart and said in a low voice, "This is not the place to talk, let's hurry up." ”

Ye Shen looked around, nodded, and got into the car with Shang Yucheng.

The car quickly started and left Guanghua University.

The two sat in the car and did not speak for a while. It wasn't until Ye Shen stopped the car that Shang Yucheng glanced outside, and said in surprise, "What are you driving to your house for?" ”

Ye Shen said as he got out of the car, "It's safer here, we can talk." ”

Shang Yucheng saw Ye Shen's decisive way out of the car, and knew that it was impossible to persuade him to drive elsewhere again, so he had to get out of the car and follow Ye Shen to open the door and walk in.

When Ye Shen was injured last time, she had come to his house once, but Ye Shen misunderstood her, and the two separated very unhappily. Coming here again, Shang Yucheng couldn't help but think of the last time they met, and was silent. In fact, it was just a small misunderstanding, but she really felt wronged, but she didn't need to explain to Ye Shen.

"Sit down." Ye Shen beckoned her to sit down, poured water for her personally, and then sat down beside her.

Shang Yucheng looked at the empty house and asked, "Isn't there anyone in the house?" ”

Ye Shen shook his head.

Shang Yucheng let out an organic "oh" and picked up the water cup and handed it to his lips.

"Last time on the train, thanks to you." Ye Shen said.

Shang Yucheng turned his head to look at him and said solemnly, "Now that this matter has passed, I hope that Mr. Ye can forget about it and never mention it again." ”

A trace of doubt flashed in Ye Shen's eyes, "Why?" After a pause, he smiled and said, "Could it be that my Ye Shen's favor is so worthless?" ”

At this time, Shang Yucheng really couldn't understand him, Shang Yucheng, who was resolute and desperate that night, saw Shang Yucheng with joy in his eyes for the first time, and it seemed that he couldn't coincide with the figure of the cold and self-contained woman in front of him.

Shang Yucheng shook his head, "Of course not. On the contrary, I am worried that Mr. Ye will often remember that I saved your life and want to return this favor to me. ”

"So what?" Ye Shen's face was not very good-looking.

"Mr. Ye is a person who does great things." Shang Yucheng looked ahead and said lightly, "And my heart is too small—I don't want to ask Mr. Ye what he did, let alone be involved in right and wrong." ”

"If that's what you think, why do you want to help?" Ye Shen's words were also sharp. "Those people are not small thieves who are making trouble, Miss Shang may have seen that their identities are not simple early on. Didn't you worry about getting involved in right and wrong then? ”

Shang Yucheng didn't expect Ye Shen to suddenly change his face, and said with a slight flush, "The situation was critical at that time, since we met, of course I have no reason to watch you put yourself in danger." ”

After waiting for a long time, I didn't see Ye Shen say anything. Shang Yucheng turned his head to look at him, "Is there anything else Mr. Ye has to do?" ”

Shang Yucheng's reaction made Ye Shen, who had always been comfortable with all kinds of women, speechless for a while, and didn't know what to say, so he had to sigh secretly and said, "Miss Shang, why did you suddenly appear that night?" ”

Shang Yucheng was relieved to see that he finally eased his expression, and said, "You passed me when you got into the car that day, I didn't notice you, but I accidentally touched your coat, which is a very unique tweed fabric, so I thought of you." ”

"You told me during the day that you would continue to stay in Nanjing, but at night you secretly got on the train from Nanjing to Shanghai, which I thought was very strange, so after thinking that it was you, I wanted to find you and ask you about it. Later, I met with you, and you all knew it. ”

As for the fact that they found out about the secret whistle and she was worried that Ye Shen was in danger, there was no need for Ye Shen to know, so Shang Yucheng said such a thing that avoided the important but was not a fact.

Ye Shen frowned, "You want to ask me clearly, so you brought a gun with you?" ”

When Shang Yucheng heard this, his eyes flickered, and he quickly calmed down, "Mr. Ye doesn't know, I often carry a gun when I go out, just to be safe." ”

Shang Yucheng's explanation was really a bit lame, but Ye Shen couldn't say that Shang Yucheng was determined to help him bring a gun, so he had to smile bitterly and didn't speak.

"So-" Shang Yucheng looked at Ye Shen carefully, "We should have never happened that night, okay?" ”

Ye Shen looked at Shang Yucheng, "Even if you don't say it, I won't involve you." He smiled, not knowing whether it was sincere or sarcastic, "A beautiful woman like Miss Shang, playing the piano and reading books, is really boring, and she can calculate the wicked to gracefully punish the evil and eliminate the evil." Dangerous things don't have to be done. ”

Seeing Ye Shen say this, Shang Yucheng smiled a little helplessly, "Thank you Mr. Ye for understanding." ”

Ye Shen paused for a moment, then smiled with relief, "Since we are people who have lived and died together, shouldn't the title of this gentleman and miss be changed?" ”

Shang Yucheng couldn't help but sigh, and he didn't want to debate with him anymore, "If Mr. Ye feels inconvenient, he can call me Yucheng like other friends." ”

Ye Shen immediately called out from the goodness, "Yucheng." Uh-huh, it was a lot smoother. ”

Shang Yucheng looked at him, "Is there anything else Mr. Ye has to do?" ”

Ye Shen saw Shang Yucheng's indifferent expression, and couldn't help but say, "Yucheng-"

Shang Yucheng looked at him calmly, "Speaking of which, shouldn't Mr. Ye return the gun to me?" ”

Ye Shen paused, "I didn't bring that gun with me, I'll return it to you another day." ”

"Okay." Shang Yucheng responded. "If Mr. Ye has nothing else to do, I will leave first." She picked up the handbag beside her and gestured to her feet.

"Wait." Ye Shen stopped her and said seriously, "No matter what, I will definitely do what I promised you last time." Miss Shang will wait patiently for a few days. ”

"You mean—" Shang Yucheng showed a hint of joy, "Su Jingyao's child?" ”

Ye Shen nodded.

Shang Yucheng looked at Ye Shen gratefully, "Thank you." ”

Ye Shen smiled faintly, and didn't seem to take her thanks to heart, "Since I promised you, I should fulfill the contract." ”

Shang Yucheng didn't say much, only said, "There is Mr. Lao Ye." ”

Ye Shen stood up and watched Shang Yucheng walk out of the gate, his eyes gradually deepening.

Shang Yucheng wanted to go home directly, but for some reason, at this time, he had a feeling of wanting to vent something.

Somewhat angry, she told the coachman to pull the car to the Lido Ballroom, walked straight to the bar, ordered a glass of red wine, and drank it.

The joy of seeing Ye Shen today is long gone, and I don't know what I have lost in my heart, and I am a little empty. Shang Yucheng's face was lonely, and he gradually became intoxicated with a glass of red wine.

"Miss, it's so boring to drink alone. How about I ask you for a drink? A half-drunk man leaned over and breathed a foul taste of cigarette and alcohol in his mouth.

"No need." Shang Yucheng replied coldly, and took another sip to himself.

"Hey! It's quite personal, I like it! The drunk man leaned closer, propped up one hand on the bar, and the other was about to be placed on Shang Yucheng's shoulder.

But before his hand fell, he was already twisted behind Shang Yucheng, she casually picked up the wine bottle on the table, nailed it cleanly to the drunk's head, and then pushed him away.

The drunk man let out an "ouch" and fell to the ground face down.

He never expected that this young woman who looked weak and delicate would actually have good skills and suffer a loss.

Shang Yucheng glanced at the drunk man writhing on the ground in disgust, threw the money on the bar, and turned to leave.

Perhaps because of his drunkenness, Shang Yucheng lost his usual calmness and sharpness, and did not notice that there was a familiar face among the stunned onlookers around him.

——

"Miss." Xianglin knocked on the door and walked into the study, "A guest is coming." ”

Shang Yucheng was in a daze at the book in front of him, and when he heard Xianglin's words, he stood up and said, "Who?" ”

"Miss Shang, it's been a long time!" An enthusiastic and slightly stiff voice came from the living room, and a tall blonde man with a full beard followed behind Xianglin and grinned and shook his hand towards Shang Yucheng. "It's me, I take the liberty to come to the door, please forgive me."

Shang Yucheng was pleasantly surprised, "Mr. Hoffman—"

She hurriedly stepped out from behind her desk and stepped forward, and Mr. Hoffman extended his arms and gave him a warm hug.

Xianglin stuck out her tongue secretly, these gringos were so arrogant, and they also brought her reserved and elegant young lady to ruin.

Thinking like this, she didn't dare to snub the guests, and hurriedly turned around to make tea.

When Xianglin came up after soaking in Longjing, Shang Yucheng, who was cordial with Hoffman, beckoned Hoffman to sit down in the study and told Xianglin to go grocery shopping.

It seemed that the young lady was going to leave the guests for dinner, Xianglin agreed, and hurried out while thinking about what dishes to buy.

After sending Xianglin away, Shang Yucheng said, "I invite you to come this time, I'm afraid I'm going to cause you trouble." ”

Hoffman didn't care, and said with a smile, "Miss Shang, don't be so polite, we are good friends, friends are in need, of course we should try our best to help." However, Miss Shang's letter is unknown, what is the matter of this trip, and I would like to ask Miss Shang to explain it to me in detail. ”

Shang Yucheng smiled, "Mr. Hoffman is a famous jewelry designer, and I invited you to come, naturally to design jewelry." ”

Mr. Hoffman was an American and a well-known jewelry designer. Since the last time he talked to Leng Hui, Shang Yucheng wrote to invite Hoffman to Shanghai.

"But—" Hoffman wondered, "didn't you say you asked me to avenge you?" ”

"Not bad." Shang Yucheng nodded, "I have carefully formulated a complete set of plans for the Leng family, and Mr. Hoffman is the surprise soldier in the surprise victory. ”

Hoffman blinked excitedly, "Oh? ”

Shang Yucheng smiled, "Mr. Hoffman came to Shanghai, but it's a big deal in the jewelry industry. It is natural to build momentum for Mr. - I wonder what Mr. thinks? ”

"Miss Shang is on orders." Hoffman replied happily.

Shang Yucheng smiled modestly and told Hoffman about his plan in detail.
