——

In the thick night, in the gentle wind and drizzle, in the small courtyard, the branches of the willow banyan with new sprouts are showing their teeth and claws.

The sound of the wind in my ears stirred people's hearts and minds.

Xia Nianzhi looked through the mottled reflection on the glass window, and then looked at the rows of fir giant banyans, the canopy was like an umbrella, covering the sky and the sun, obviously full of vitality, but at night, it was like a hell ghost with a green face and fangs, holding a soul chain.

For no reason, the inexplicable sadness in her eyes that was so fast that she couldn't grasp it at all made Xia Nianzhi involuntarily raise his hand, trying to smooth his frowning sword eyebrows, but suddenly, he grabbed her wrist violently.

"Xia Nianzhi, if I fall into the water at the same time as Lu Can, who will you save?"

Such a question of life and death came suddenly, caught off guard, Xia Nianzhi was never prepared, Leng Buding was smashed into such a classic and tricky multiple-choice question, he was instantly stunned, his mind was blank, and he became even more strangely nervous.

Sheng Scar was by no means for no reason, he would ask her like this on a whim, thinking about the transfer of the old and the new within the Sheng Consortium, and the inheritance of authority, it had reached a white-hot stage - whether it was from the blatant attack of the warm pavilion, or the content that had just been overheard outside the door of the study, Sheng Lao, the outgoing king, chose the successor as Lu Can.

As for Sheng Zhen, without the support of Sheng Lao, it is not right, if you want to take back the control scepter of the Sheng Group from Lu Can, who has received all the support of Sheng Lao, I am afraid that the first of those old antiques on the board of directors of Sheng Group will not agree.

Throughout the ages, with history as a mirror, we can know the rise and fall, and with people as a mirror, we can see the gains and losses.

Countless wars for succession, without exception, no matter how bloody and cruel the process is, the winning side is crowned as the emperor, which one has not chosen to whitewash the peace? They pretended to be deaf and dumb as if nothing had happened on their faces, turning a blind eye to the mountains of corpses and the sea of blood under their feet.

Power, wealth, desire and ambition are too dazzling to chase souls.

"Scarred... If my answer is... You ......"

Xia Nianzhi grabbed Sheng Zhen's left hand, said in a gentle tone, and asked rhetorically, "So, do you want me to save it?" ”

The words fell, silent, Xia Nianzhi looked directly at Sheng Zhen, and suddenly, together with the rain outside the window, it was also silent.

……

About two years ago, even though she was in deep shackles, made mistakes, and awaited her with no return, she still had such a pitiful girl's heart, and cautiously wanted to get close to him, and even tried to test him desperately.

"When you helped me, did you have it, so little bit, like me?"

At that time, next to the mountains of documents, Sheng Qi, who was sitting in danger, was flipping through countless investments involving 100 million yuan.

He slowly raised his eyes, sword eyebrows, deep and deep, staring straight at him.

At that time, she had the courage to come from nowhere, fearlessly, earnestly, even ignoring the shyness of the girl's family, and just looked at him, but the man Sheng Ke, as he was accustomed to investment projects, did not raise his head after lowering his eyes, and gave her the answer.

"Xia Nianzhi, a successful businessman, will not talk about feelings with his trading partner in trading."

After this battle, she completely extinguished the messy mind, and no longer dared to be so careless, and she didn't dare to ask again.

So, to this day, Sheng Zhen took the initiative to ask her like this, doesn't it feel like a big joke?

……

Knock knock knock is a knock on the door that is neither light nor heavy, full of rhythmic frequency.

However, it was also this apt knock on the door, which was deafening, coincidentally and just in time to remind her that it was time to stop.

Sheng Zhen's ink eyes were dark and his face was gloomy, but he suddenly let go of Xia Nian's jaw that was imprisoned, and then took out a cigar from the cigarette case, but because he thought of something, he just rubbed it in his hand at will, and he seemed to be very anxious and depressed.

Xia Nianzhi didn't want to wait silently anymore, just waiting for Sheng Zhen's decision.

She simply got up, and after opening the door, there was a moment of surprise, and then joy: "Mom? How could you..."

"Miss, you want to ask me why I'm here, right?"

The middle-aged woman in her sixties squinted and smiled, her eyetail lines cascading, shouting about the powerful power of the years, she glanced into the house, and explained happily: "Yes, sir, Mr. came to me a few days ago, saying that you have been idle recently, and you plan to live on the island for a while, and you are talking about my pastries every day, so I am here to make delicious food for my young lady!" ”

Who are Sheng Scars looking for? Before the accident in the Xia family, Mom left and there was no news, how did he find it? What do you want to do?

Xia Nianzhi had doubts, but she didn't have time to think about it, because immediately, a bowl of hot soup was handed to her, the taste Xia Nianzhi was extremely familiar, the heat permeated her eyes, her eyes were suddenly sour, and she couldn't help asking, "For me?" ”

"It was specially ordered by Mr. just now, Miss, you come back from outside, this is more dewy, and it is raining, it is most suitable to drink some ginger juice and milk, to drive away the cold, strengthen the stomach and suppress cough, and ensure that you have a good night's sleep tonight."

Xia Nianzhi took the food box from her mother's hand and thanked her, her mother patted the back of her hand ambiguously, deliberately approached her, and whispered: "I remember that when you were a child, Miss, you liked to pester Mr. to tell stories, and Mr. is also rare, and I am willing to tell you about it, this is finally back on the island, good opportunity, Miss, you have to seize it!" ”

Hearing this, Xia Nianzhi was stunned for a moment, and before he could explain that it didn't mean that, his mother turned around and left with a face of 'I understand, I understand', and didn't forget to close the door of the library on the third floor for them.

……

Half an hour later, Xia Nianzhi was still standing by the door, the food box in her hand was not heavy, but she felt that her hand hurt from tugging.

"The ginger juice has to be hot while the milk is hot, what are you still doing in a daze?" Sheng Ji indifferently ordered: "You don't have the potential to be a door god, come here." ”

She's a fairy! It's not a door god in the first place, isn't it?

It's so angry!

Xia Nianzhi turned around, slowly moved to the soft couch next to the window of the lower floor, and after sitting down cross-legged, Sheng Zhen had already opened the food box, and ordered simply and straightforwardly: "Drink it, save yourself from catching a cold." ”

Xia Nianzhi is naturally well-behaved and does as he says, but the region is different, the entrance is instantaneous, mellow and smooth, and there is a milky aftertaste between the lips and teeth, it is really the work of Mu Ma, Xia Nianzhi sighed, but he was not polite, and began to eat happily with the bowl.

Only, suddenly, Sheng Scar snapped the lighter, looked at her deeply, and called her name.

is different from the previous tone, with a strange feeling that Xia Nianzhi can't understand.

"Xia Nianzhi."

Sheng Zhen saw that Xia Nianzhi was stunned, so he asked again, Xia Nianzhi pretended to be indifferent, and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"I can't give you a lot of love, but I can give you a lot of money."

Rouran's milk choked in her throat, unable to go up and down, and was jammed, as if even the concentric mouth was blocked.

Xia Nianzhi held the bowl in both hands, obviously the milk was still hot, but she felt that her hands were very cold, and the surroundings were like falling into an ice cellar, and the cold wind was whistling.

"You, say, what?"

"Xia Nianzhi, you are very smart, you can understand."

I don't understand! I hate being deaf now! Scarred you bastard perverted bastard old man!

Xia Nianzhi scolded wildly in his heart, but with a shallow smile on his face, the words revealed in the man's hoarse voice were ethereal but like a hammer smashing on the tip of her heart, making it difficult to breathe - yes, money, love, if he doesn't give alms, what can she do?

Come to think of it, in this period of entanglement in which she is cocooned and self-bound, who can finally snuggle with whom to death?

Deeply self-deprecating, Xia Nianzhi restrained his resentment, tried his best to learn to raise his smile gently, and said apologetically: "Mr. Sheng, you are right, in the past three years, you have indeed given me a lot of gifts, and you have also fulfilled the responsibilities that Mr. Jin Zhu should have. ”

Xia Nianzhi's smile deepened: "There is also Lingyan Mountain in Aocheng, I should have repaid you a long time ago, but I'm really sorry, Mr. Sheng, I've been really unwell in recent days, and I can't give you what you want, I owe it first, next time you want to do it, I'll accompany you, is it okay?" ”

Before the words fell, Xia Nianzhi felt that his waist was suddenly imprisoned, and his strength was extremely great, but before he could react, he saw that Sheng Scar didn't know when, he had already covered her around the back of her neck, staring at her expressionlessly, as if he was vowing to burn a hole in her body.

Xia Nianzhi's subconscious retreated, but his waist was grabbed by Sheng Scar, and his strength was extremely heavy, without the slightest restraint.

"Xia Nianzhi..."
