"What? Still don't dare? Lu Jingcheng sneered.

Ye Shen held Shang Yucheng's hand and couldn't help but work harder.

Shang Yucheng sighed and said in a low voice, "Don't worry, since he just wants to talk, he will definitely be fine." ”

Ye Shen frowned, "But-"

Shang Yucheng shook his head, "Since you're here, it won't be anything. What's more, today is the Lu family's ball—it can't be worse. ”

Seeing that she was so confident, Ye Shen thought that Lu Jingcheng was indeed not her opponent, so he reluctantly let go of the hand holding her arm.

Shang Yucheng smiled at him slightly, turned his face to look at Lu Jingcheng, "Let's go." ”

When Lu Jingcheng saw the appearance of Shang Yucheng and Ye Shen, he was already jealous and angry in his heart, but Leng Hui was still pulling his sleeve, and he didn't have the consciousness to let go. He shook off her hand and turned to the side of the lounge.

Shang Yucheng looked at his back with complicated eyes, paused, and followed him.

The lady's lounge, which was still full of the room, was now empty, and there was still a messy smell of fat powder. Shang Yucheng looked at the somewhat unfamiliar Lu Jingcheng in front of him and sat quietly.

Lu Jingcheng was about the same mood, and for a while, neither of the two spoke.

Finally, Lu Jingcheng broke the unusual silence, "Where do we start?" ”

Shang Yucheng looked at him and frowned slightly.

Lu Jingcheng sneered, "It's better to start with the first time I saw the real Shang Yu City—"

Shang Yucheng was shocked, but he didn't say anything.

Lu Jingcheng looked at her expression and continued to say coldly, "One night not long after you came back from Nanjing, I was drinking with a few business friends at the Lido Ballroom——"

Shang Yucheng immediately remembered what he said, she was angry for a while after drinking, and beat a drunk male guest who surrounded him and moved his hands and feet, could it be that he found out what he did that night?

Lu Jingcheng looked at her face, "Do you remember?" He sneered, "It's been more than two years since we've known each other in the United States, but I never knew that the weak Shang Yucheng could knock a strong man to the ground in three or two strokes." ”

He paused, then continued, "I've been wondering why you're hiding something like me from something that isn't very important. Even if you know how to do kung fu, you are still you, and I will not change you in the slightest. Until that day in the Leng Jewelry Store, at the moment before the robbers came in, you stopped Ye Shen, who was about to go out-" Lu Jingcheng stared at Shang Yucheng's eyes, as if he wanted to see her through completely. "What you're hiding is not whether you know kung fu, but what kind of person you are."

"You know there will be robbers coming to rob jewelry stores." Ye Shen gave his own conclusion, "How would you know? Is all this your arrangement? For money? He sneered, "It's the same as the purpose of you approaching me, for the Lu family's money?" ”

Shang Yucheng frowned and did not speak.

"Why don't you speak?" Ye Shen seemed to have lost his patience, "I want to hear you tell me that I guessed wrong, I want to hear your explanation!" ”

Shang Yucheng looked at Lu Jingcheng with mixed feelings in his heart.

Fortunately, although Lu Jingcheng found out about her suspicions, he still didn't guess the truth. It's just that seeing him look so irrational, Shang Yucheng couldn't help but feel a little guilty.

No matter what kind of person Lu Jingcheng is, he did not participate in the crime six years ago, he is innocent. If he hadn't been born in the Lu family, how could he have suffered such collateral damage? What's more, he also treated her sincerely.

What should she do? Do you continue to use lies to perpetuate everything, or do you stop there, and maybe use other methods to get revenge?

Suddenly, she thought of Ye Shen who was waiting outside the door at the moment, and her heart suddenly warmed.

Although he didn't say it, every time he mentioned the word revenge, his worries were self-evident. He didn't despise her because of his scheming or all kinds of cruel behavior, but he was worried about whether she would be able to take care of her every day in the enemy camp.

How rare this heart is!

Shang Yucheng raised his head and looked at Lu Jingcheng calmly, "That's right, I did deceive you. ”

I saw that Lu Jingcheng's face turned pale, looking at Shang Yucheng, speechless.

"I'm not the Shang Yu City you think I am. No matter how many reasons I have, I can't deny that. ”

Since he had begun, Shang Yucheng continued, "As you can see, I have studied martial arts, and I don't look so weak. When we met, I knew that you were the second young master of Huijin, and it was not as I said - I didn't know anything about your identity. ”

"I lied to you." Shang Yucheng said calmly, "I am willing to bear the consequences." ”

Lu Jingcheng seemed to be unwilling to believe it, and shook his head slightly.

"The matter of Leng's jewelry store—" Shang Yucheng shook his head, "It has nothing to do with me. But there is one thing-" Shang Yucheng said earnestly, "Leng Hui is not right, you should be careful." ”

Lu Jingcheng looked at Shang Yucheng with a bitter smile on his face, "You deceived me, is the relationship between you and me all a lie?" ”

Shang Yucheng looked at Lu Jingcheng and didn't know how to answer.

Lu Jingcheng looked at her and a trace of anger suddenly appeared in his eyes, "What about Ye Shen?" What's your next target? ”

Shang Yucheng couldn't help but sigh when she saw his eyes red, she stood up, "I'm done with what I'm going to say, now everything in Huijin is on your shoulders, take care of Jing Cheng." ”

Shang Yucheng turned around and walked towards the door, only to hear a "bang" behind him, which was the sound of glass falling to the ground.

"Shang Yucheng - I will never let you go!" Lu Jingcheng stood in place, shouting as hard as he could.

Shang Yucheng didn't look back and quickly left the room.

——

Ye Shen's car was parked outside Shang Yucheng's house.

"Are you sure you want to go back here?" Ye Shen said with a tone of disapproval, "Now Lu Jingcheng is angry, if he comes to you for trouble-"

Shang Yucheng shook his head, "It's going to be fine." Lu Jingcheng has the best face, he just drank wine and got carried away for a while, but at this moment, he will never trouble me when the Lu family comes down. What's more—" Shang Yucheng said with a smile, "Didn't you bury your eyeliner in my house?" If there's anything, she'll let you know. ”

Ye Shen saw that Shang Yucheng's face was full of relaxed jokes, but his heart couldn't be relaxed, he looked at her and said solemnly, "How did he know that you know how to fight?" I thought you had been hiding it from him. After a pause, he said, "Don't underestimate Lu Jingcheng, no matter what, he is also a member of the Lu family." This time he was so frustrated, I don't think he would give up like this. ”

Shang Yucheng nodded, "Of course I know this—there's one more thing I want to tell you." She looked up at Ye Shen, "Lu Jingcheng has already begun to doubt my purpose for approaching him. ”

"What?" Ye Shen sat up in surprise and frowned, "How can this be?" ”

Shang Yucheng told Ye Shen what Lu Jingcheng had just mentioned. After a pause, he continued, "Although he didn't think of the connection behind these things for a while, I think he will think of it sooner or later." She sighed, "I'm afraid there will be real trouble then." ”

Ye Shen frowned and said in a deep voice, "This may not be, maybe there is a way." ”

Shang Yucheng shook his head, "I don't want to bother thinking about this for the time being. She turned her head to look at Ye Shen and smiled slightly. At this time, Shang Yucheng seemed to have been stripped of her heavy armor, and her face was full of relaxation, she leaned back on the back of the seat, closed her eyes and let out a long breath.

Ye Shen looked at Shang Yucheng and said with a smile, "What, is our avenging angel about to retire?" ”

Shang Yucheng smiled, opened his eyes and looked at Ye Shen, "Don't you think I'm too scary?" ”

"Why do you ask?" Ye Shen extinguished the fire, also leaned back in the chair, and asked lightly.

Shang Yucheng shook his head, "I just think that there are so many simple and kind good girls in the world, if it were me, I would definitely not choose me." ”

Ye Shen laughed when he heard this, "If you were me, who are you going to choose?" ”

Shang Yucheng said with a smile, "If I were a man, I would find a woman like a female student, read and play the piano, water flowers and make tea, and never ask about the outside world behind closed doors, whether it is a war-torn or peaceful and prosperous world-" She turned her head and glanced at Ye Shen, "No matter how famous it is, it doesn't care about love and hatred." Just live quietly. ”

Ye Shen looked at Shang Yucheng, and his eyes seemed to appear that the unstained girl back then, no matter what kind of gorgeous clothes and how exaggerated makeup she was wearing, there was still a kind of innocence and hope that could not be concealed from her every move.

Ye Shen didn't speak, just gently took Shang Yucheng into his arms, if it wasn't for the misfortune at the beginning, maybe Shang Yucheng would have lived such a life without fighting with the world. But how long can such a life be sustained in today's war-torn era?

Thinking of this, Ye Shen suddenly said, "Yucheng, I have something I want to tell you. ”

Shang Yucheng heard the solemnity of Ye Shen's words, sat up straight and looked at him, "What's the matter?" ”

Ye Shen hesitated for a moment and said, "The cooperation between the Lu family and the Ye family's shipping must not be suspended-" He looked at Shang Yucheng apologetically, "I can't explain the reason to you, I hope you can forgive me." ”

Shang Yucheng reacted for a moment before frowning, "Are you worried that Lu Jingcheng will find out about us and stop cooperating with the Ye family in a fit of anger?" ”

Ye Shen nodded, "You know Lu Jingcheng, he doesn't have a city government and attaches great importance to face. He must not be able to bear it if you leave him with me like this. It is very likely that the cooperation with the Ye family will be stopped. ”

Ye Shen looked at Shang Yucheng, "I must not let this happen." ”

After listening to Ye Shen's words, Shang Yucheng thought for a while before looking at Ye Shen's eyes and asked softly, "I can't ask the reason, right?" ”

Ye Shen nodded apologetically, "Yes." ”

If there is any secret in this, it is probably related to Ye Shen's secret identity. Shang Yucheng guessed that the Ye family was so rich, naturally not because of the little benefit from cooperating with the Lu family in shipping. Why does Ye Shen value the Lu family's business so much, and what is so special about the Lu family's goods?

"In that case, let's be careful. Fortunately, I didn't admit anything to Lu Jingcheng. Shang Yucheng smiled, "Anyway, I don't like to live too high-profile lives." ”

Ye Shen listened to Shang Yucheng's words, "Aren't you angry?" ”

Shang Yucheng shook his head, "You have a reason why you have to do this, why should I be angry?" She smiled and said, "I don't have any relatives or friends in Shanghai, so I just want to take you to show off and have nowhere to go, even if I keep a low profile, it doesn't have any impact." ”

For some reason, Ye Shen's heart suddenly ached. He held back the discomfort in his heart and said with a smile, "I am grateful to you for looking down on me and thinking that I am a person worth showing off to others." Since you have no relatives here, it seems that you are destined to suffer this loss, our Ye family is also a big family in northern Jiangsu, and I will take you to show off when the time comes—the seven aunts and eight aunts are considered to be few. Don't be annoyed. ”

Shang Yucheng originally just gave Ye Shen a reassuring remark, but when he saw him tell it as a joke, he said, "I'm afraid that people will think that I am not worthy of you, and this is a shame to be thrown to my hometown." ”

Ye Shen hurriedly smiled and said, "Never!" He squinted at Shang Yucheng a little farther away, "Look at this look, this figure, this temperament—tsk, anyone with eyes knows that I am not worthy of you-"

Shang Yucheng fell to the ground with goosebumps from what he said, and she said while getting out of the car door, "If you talk nonsense like this, I won't accompany you." There's something to do tomorrow. ”

Ye Shen smiled and watched her get out of the car, and instructed, "Be careful." I'll call you again tomorrow. ”

——

Despite the drama of the previous day, the first day of the first month was surprisingly quiet.

Shang Yucheng didn't have much appetite when he got up early, so he simply told Xianglin not to prepare breakfast, she drank a cup of coffee and sat at the table reading the newspaper.

After a while, she suddenly felt that someone was looking at her, and when she looked up, she saw Xianglin looking at her with a smile.

"What are you doing? Nervous. Shang Yucheng scolded with a smile, "If you have nothing to do, go and accompany Awen, so you don't have to make trouble here." ”

Xianglin ignored her words, and still came over with a smile, "Miss, I heard that Mr. Ye and the second young master fought for you last night?" ”

Shang Yucheng glanced at him, "I didn't expect you to stay at home and be so well-informed." It's really condescending to be a girl, why don't I ask Mr. Shu to accept you as an apprentice, and you also go to be a detective? ”

Xianglin knew that Shang Yucheng would never be really angry because of these words, not to mention that this matter was something she was very concerned about, so she said eagerly, "Oh, Miss! Everyone else is in a hurry, just tell me. What happened to you and Mr. Ye? ”

Shang Yucheng blushed slightly when he was asked by Xianglin, "What are you asking for?" ”

Xianglin observed his words and said excitedly, "Did you really abandon the second young master and be with Mr. Lu?" ”

When Shang Yucheng heard her words, he couldn't help frowning and said, "What abandoned the second young master—who told you this?" ”

Xianglin picked up a newspaper from the table and handed it over, "The newspaper is all written!" ”
