Chapter 20
The morning sun of early winter, as pale as the moonlight, illuminated the floor through the snow-white curtains, faintly and whitely.
When she came to the hall, An Rui saw that only the maid from last night was cleaning, and when she looked around, she didn't see the person, didn't she get up yet?
"Miss An, good morning!"
When she came back to her senses, An Rui saw the maid standing in front of her, and couldn't call her name for a while, so she said "eh" and asked, "Your young master?" ”
"Young master usually doesn't get up so early, why don't I get you breakfast first?"
"No, no need!" An Rui walked to the door, changed his shoes and said, "I'll go first, if your young master asks, please come to the Bai family's business." ”
"Miss An, you, you better wait for the young master to get up before ......"
Seeing her blocking the way, An Rui was about to explain, there was a dry cough behind her, and when she looked back, she saw Rong Chu wearing a dark blue pajamas, messy hair, a pair of gold-wire round-framed glasses on the bridge of her nose, her hands naturally inserted in her pockets, and she slowly walked down the stairs with laziness.
He waved his hand to signal the maid to leave, his face was expressionless, and he seemed to be sleepy and did not wake up: "Leave without saying hello, Miss An, it seems that you don't know how to be polite." ”
"There's a reason for it, me?" An Rui saw him walk to the gramophone, under the sun, slender fingers swiped over the vinyl record, long eyelashes flickered up and down, lazy but not losing spirit, slightly stunned, until the soft piano sounded, she spoke: "Cousin's matter, I have to discuss countermeasures with Mr. Wang when I go back, so?" ”
Before she finished speaking, she saw Rong Chu handing over a cup of coffee, tilted her head and nodded, and said with a smile: "The sacrificial festival is approaching, the young overseer should have no time to take care of Mr. Bai's affairs, let alone it?" He paused, and then said, "I think Mr. Bai is the safest in prison right now." ”
Taking the coffee, An Rui frowned and hesitated, "What do you mean by that?" ”
"Selling contraband is a felony in Jiangning Mansion, everyone knows it, a few days ago, the Young Overseer also executed Director Li's son-in-law for this matter, at this juncture, Mr. Bai dares to commit a crime against the wind, there are only three possibilities." Rong Chu took a sip of coffee, moistened his throat, and continued: "First: Mr. Bai is a master of art and boldness, relying on the support of someone behind him, he opened up the relationship for him, and completely ignored the strict orders of the Overseer's Mansion; Second: the employer is someone he cannot afford to offend; Third: being framed by others. ”
Holding a coffee cup in his hand, looking at the scenery outside the window, all the information was quickly summarized in his mind, and after a moment of silence, Rong Chu analyzed: "If the first two are possible, whether it is the person behind the back, or the employer, in order not to be implicated, they will inevitably kill people, as long as Mr. Bai is out of prison, it will provide them with the opportunity to assassinate." ”
Hearing this, An Rui's heart shook, and she stepped forward and said in a panic: "What if they do it in prison?" She grabbed his arm and asked hesitantly, "You, do you have a way to save him?" ”
"You seem to be nervous about him?"
He pressed forward step by step, An Rui couldn't help but retreat, until her back was against the wall and there was no way back, she explained palely: "He, he is my cousin!" ”
"Oh? If you sincerely want to save it, why did you hide it from me in the first place? Rong Chu saw that she was silent, stared sideways, deliberately joked, and said casually: "Miss An, do you believe that I have the ability to deal with it, or do you think that I will not be nosy?" ”
It was close at hand, and An Rui only felt that her cheeks were hot for a while, and she avoided his gaze and said no repeatedly.
Getting closer and closer, his snort was warm, An Rui had nowhere to hide, he didn't dare to look directly, and his gentle voice came from his ear: "That's?" ”
"Me!?"
The moment she raised her head, she didn't wait for her to react, she only felt that her lips were warm for a while, An Rui's eyes widened instinctively, her body was slightly stunned, her scalp was numb, she wanted to reach out to push, but she was held tightly by him and couldn't break free.
The sudden kiss was domineering and gentle, and An Rui only felt that the blood in her whole body was like a rapid river, rushing to her heart, and she was about to stop breathing.
Consciousness began to blur, and she only saw his lenses in the sunlight, refracting a multicolored halo, and those eyes ......
This kind of burning heat is completely different from the last time, that feeling An Rui has never felt before, she only felt that her lips were entangled by an unfamiliar heat and breath, and she almost struggled, but his force was too great for her to move at all.
It seemed that his aura filled everything, enveloping her like a net of heaven and earth, and there was no escape.
After a while, An Rui seemed to give up the struggle, closed her eyes, and only felt that she was being caught in a hurricane, as if the nerves of her facial features were obscured, she couldn't hear anything, she couldn't see anything, the only thing she could feel was the burning and tenderness on her lips.
His plunder became more and more brutal, and An Rui's heart was broken, and he bit Rong Chu's lips fiercely.
