In his palm lay a glittering badge with an eagle spreading its wings.

"What is this?" Ping Yan asked.

"I found it in the corner of the hall, and it must have been accidentally dropped by the uninvited guests today. If I'm not mistaken, this is the emblem of Huo Sanye's Qingyun Gang, and only gang disciples who are deeply trusted and have made remarkable achievements are qualified to wear it. Shen Yuchen narrowed his eyes and sat down opposite her.

Ping Yan thought for a while, and then denied herself: "But even if Huo Sanye knew that I fired the gun, how could he send his subordinates to find my location so accurately and quickly in such a short period of time when he was unconscious?" ”

Shen Yuchen sneered, and a dangerous aura permeated his whole body, "Gangs take it all in black and white, in addition to some overt business transactions, there is also a dark means of making profits is to take people's money and eliminate disasters for others." In Qingzhou, who else do you think is the one who took your life so hard? ”

A word wakes up the dreamer.

Lofty.

In the blink of an eye, an even bigger cloud of suspicion came over, "I heard that they have always left no living mouth in their work, and they are extremely cruel. How did Dongxia and Miss Lin, two weak women, escape, and whose blood was on the floor? ”

Shen Yuchen's eyebrows were slightly furrowed, and the side face carved by the jade knife was crossed by a thin layer of moonlight, looking heroic and restrained, as if there was a determined momentum to manipulate the overall situation, which was very different from the past, and people unconsciously looked up to it, "These are not important, the important thing is to take this opportunity to get rid of a cancer in Qingzhou." ”

Cancer naturally refers to lofty. A Fuso man who has been hidden to this day and works for that small country in the Pacific Ocean is trying to stifle the economy and grasp Qingzhou, which connects the north and south.

The corners of his lips were full of vigor and jealousy, like laughter, like hatred, with a kind of bewitchment. Ping Yan clearly remembered that her father had such a look before leading the troops into battle in the early days. She stared at him stunned, as if he would disappear in the blink of an eye, and her eyes gradually filled with tears, like a wave of water.

Shen Yuchen noticed the change in her, he had never seen her so tender, as if she would be broken if she touched it. Although he tensed his body and breathed carefully, he slowly held her hand like a snail crawling.

"Don't be afraid." His voice was as soft as a gust of wind.

Tears were like broken pearls, and a few hot drops hit the back of his hand, slowly becoming cold. Shen Yuchen picked her up horizontally, his arms were stiff, for fear that a slight movement would destroy the satisfaction of happiness in his hand at this time. He put her on the bed, covered her with a quilt, and took off her suit in a blink of an eye.

Ping Yan stared at his movements, and suddenly panicked for no reason. "You...... What do you want to do......"

Shen Yuchen threw the suit on the corner of the bed, as if it was a strong reaction to amuse her, and teased her with a playful and bewildering smile, "What do you say I can do, I have enough strength to spare, but you have no spare strength and not enough, can I really be as unscrupulous as a robber and do whatever I want?" As he spoke, he picked up another quilt and laid it on the ground, and he turned off the light and lay down.

The shadows of the trees are swaying, and the dark fragrance is faint. For the first time, he felt that in the silent night, the moonlight was also so beautiful and sultry.

The morning was bright, and the air smelled of flowers and trees revival. Ping Yan vaguely felt a warm breath rubbing on her face, and when she suddenly opened her eyes, she saw Shen Yujian's face facing each other, and the distance was so close that she could almost count the two closed long eyelashes, her heart jumped suddenly, and without thinking about it, she subconsciously used all her strength to kick him out of bed.

Shen Yuchen was stunned, the person rolled up the quilt, rolled out of the way, and fell to the ground.

"Are you a righteous gentleman, Shen Yuchen!" Ping Yan roared, wrapping her hands tightly around the quilt.

Shen Yuchen was confused for a while, thinking of what happened last night, and secretly felt a little shameless in his heart. He swaggered over, quite a villain, "Who told you that I am a righteous man and a gentleman?" ”

Ping Yan knew that he didn't do anything to him, but the more intimate the contact, the more her heart was shaken, and this feeling made her bear an unbearable sense of guilt. The gods are above, and her relatives died tragically, how can she let go of her previous suspicions, and talk and laugh with the descendants of the Shen family without any barriers.

Shen Yuchen saw that her face darkened, and there was a faint sense of decadence. Busy and pitifully explained: "It rained in the second half of last night, and it was very cold on the floor, and the wound on my ankle was very numb as soon as it was cold, so I went to bed to get warm, but I didn't expect to fall asleep all of a sudden." Don't worry, I didn't do anything. ”

Ping Yan looked at his somewhat purple ankles, her heart was pantothenic, and she couldn't put on any cold appearance, she got out of bed and said lightly: "Are you hungry?" Let's pack up and go out to eat, I heard that the osmanthus glutinous rice balls here are delicious. ”

The two of them walked around the streets and alleys, bought many kinds of paper packets to eat, and finally found a street shop that sold rice balls, sat down, and ordered two bowls of osmanthus rice balls.

The jingling of trams and the constant shuttle of rickshaws complement each other, and various shops gradually open their doors for business, and pedestrians are weaving. Shen Yuchen feasted on a large piece, eating the most ordinary breakfast with her, like all living beings, watching the hard-won ordinary in the chaotic world of fireworks. This pleasant mood greatly opened Shen Yuchen's appetite, he ordered two bowls of rice balls, and the boss came over with a smile to recommend the new product, "There is a new apricot blossom rice ball, do you want to try it?" ”

Ping Yan thought to herself, the apricot blossoms taste bitter, this boss is so ingenious, it's strange that he can sell it.

Unexpectedly, Shen Yuchen agreed, staring at Ping Yan meaningfully, and I don't know if it was because of the sun's rays, and his eyes were shining.

After a while, two bowls of hot rice balls were served on the table, and the fragrance of apricot blossoms was faintly wafting between the heat, and there were also a few pieces of apricot blossoms floating in the white jade-like soup. Shen Yuchen picked up a spoon and scooped one up, put it in his mouth with great joy, and didn't comment after chewing it a few times, but kept smiling, and even poured the soup into his stomach seven times or eight times.

He handed one to Ping Yan, with a mysterious and innocent smile at the corners of his eyes and eyebrows, "You taste it." ”

What's in this glutinous rice ball? Ping Yan was really curious, took the spoon and tasted one, the glutinous taste, between the bite of the teeth, a wisp of fragrance seeped through the tongue and teeth, just the right amount of slightly bitterness, it was the slightest sweetness that swept in.

Shen Yuchen smiled with satisfaction, called the boss, and took out a few oceans to pay the bill. The boss wanted to make change, but he smiled and said, "No need to look for it, it just so happens that I still have to find the boss to solve your problems." Shen Yuchen asked with great interest the reason and production method of this bowl of apricot blossom glutinous rice balls.

"Hey, it's just that there is an apricot blossom tree in my yard, and the child's mother thinks that it is a pity that the apricot blossoms have fallen to the ground, and I have to put it away to force me to think of a use. I just thought that it was best to combine it with glutinous rice balls, and people would live for a lifetime, wouldn't it just be for the sake of making a living. Eat the flowers into the stomach, people and flowers are complete, and it can be regarded as a not very elegant cherishing flowers and loving flowers. ”

Shen Yuchen nodded thoughtfully. The boss added: "The apricot blossoms have a bitter taste and are difficult to taste, but as long as you soak them in honey the night in advance, and then add sugar when you are filling them." No matter how bitter things are, sugar can offset them, and if they can't cover the bitter taste, it's good to add more sugar. The boss bowed slightly, picked up a few oceans and handed them to his wife happily.

No matter how bitter things are, sugar can offset them. If you can't cover the bitterness, just add more sugar.

Such a simple truth, an old man knows that if he persists, his wishes will come true.

Shen Yuchen looked at Ping Yan with a smile, dragging his cheeks with one hand, focused and serious, meticulous, with the splendid intoxication of the spring breeze blowing away the flowers, as if he was drunk and drowning in a honey pot, his cheeks were red, and even his eyes were scattered with a little bit of crystal, as if he was a falling meteor.

"Are you bitter? Am I sweet or not? If you are not bitter, how can I sweeten you? "There is such a sentence without a head and no tail for a long time.

All he had in his head was tofu and paste. Ping Yan turned around and wanted to leave, but bumped into the shoulder of a gentleman, who took advantage of the situation to help her, she was about to thank her, when she looked up and saw a calm and smiling face, nodded at her.

It's familiar.

"Zicheng, it's really you!" Shen Yuchen jumped up and punched him in the shoulder.

The name suddenly brings out the film of memory. Only then did Ping Yan remember that he was the man who was saved in the train that day.

Mu Zicheng wore a thin brown gown, jacket and leather shoes, a refreshing and neat big back, a righteous posture, slightly dark facial features, a pair of single-leather eyes behind the gold wire glasses with a grateful smile, gently raised his hand towards Ping Yan, and said, "Miss, do you remember me?" Thanks to Miss for being in a hurry on the train that day, I was able to save my life. ”

Ping Yan smiled faintly and shook his hand. His palms were rough and calloused, apparently caused by years of exercise. He shook Ping Yan's hand a few times, let go, and said politely, "I am Mu Zicheng, if Miss has a place to use me in the future, she will definitely die." ”

Ping Yan bowed, "Tao Yan, give me a lot of advice." ”

Shen Yuchen leaned back in the chair with a smile on his face and looked at the two of them politely, and his brain strings rang, as if something blocked had been pried open at once, and his face suddenly changed.

Mu family, isn't there only one Mu family in Beiping that is famous all over the world? No wonder Liu Muyun would say that he was kind to his master, and his master was Mu Sheng. Shen Yuchen and Mu Zicheng went to the same military academy in the United States for four years, and they also saved his life by chance, life and death do not matter about family background, he only knows that his family is a big family in the north, but he didn't expect that he would be the son of the Mu family.

He slowly lost his stunned look, and he still sat loosely, but his mind was spinning a thousand times.

He was almost certain that Mu Zicheng was the sixth young man of the Mu family who had disappeared for many years.

And the purpose of his coming to Qingzhou will never be simple.
