Chapter 4
The clouds were as soft as flocculent, covering the moonlight, and under the dim street lamp, a black shadow looked left and right, and when he saw that there was no one around, he stepped on the stone pier, jumped up, and turned into the house.
He felt the darkness, was familiar with the road, opened the side wooden door, and crept into the house.
As soon as he walked to the staircase, the 'pop' light was turned on, and the living room suddenly lit up, and a cold snort came from behind him, Rong Chu's heart chuckled, he saw Lin Shiwei sitting on the sofa with a serious expression, and hurriedly sloppy eyes, and asked with a smile: "Uncle Lin, it's so late, you, you haven't slept yet?" He pretended to stretch his waist and yawn, "I've had a day's class today, I'm so tired, Uncle Lin, if it's okay, I'll go to sleep first." ”
"Where?"
Just wanted to explain, Rong Chu saw Lin Muwan walking over with tea, and glanced at her, only to hear her say softly: "Dad, where else can he go, he must be looking for those fox friends to drink, look at him ......"
"I didn't ask you!" Lin Shiwei stood up, glared at his daughter, and asked sharply, "Mu Bai, are you honest about the theft of the trading company this afternoon, did you do it?" ”
"No, it's not me!" Rong Chu raised his eyebrows and denied it.
"Really?" Lin Shiwei nodded when he saw Rong Chu, his attitude was sincere, but he was half-convinced.
Taking the tea cup, he took a sip of the tea leaves floating on the surface with the lid of the bowl, and said earnestly: "Mu Bai, I know that the children were bullied a few days ago, and your heart is not happy. I understand your mind and your character, but now that the situation is turbulent, Shanghai Tang is no longer what it used to be, it seems calm on the surface, but behind the scenes it is turbulent, and all parties are competing for each other! Especially the Japanese. ”
"There are many things that you can't control alone, and if you can't bear it, you will make a big plan!" Stepping forward slowly, he patted Rong Chu on the shoulder and stared: "Your father sent you to Shanghai to study, I think you don't need to say much, you should also understand?" ”
Looking sideways, Rong Chu did not say anything, but there was a trace of firmness in his eyes, and the corners of his mouth floated slightly......
The atmosphere was slightly awkward, Lin Muwan stepped forward with a smile, and said to the mud: "Dad, you have patronized and taught people, and you have forgotten all the business." She looked at Rong Chu, "Uncle Rong called and said: The ninth day of the first month of next month is the temple fair of the Priest's Day, and he wants you to go back to Jiangning Mansion to preside." ”
Rong Chu raised his eyebrows and said 'hmm'.
The afternoon sun shines through the gaps in the leaves and spills out of the café, and the floor-to-ceiling glass windows reflect a faint round halo of light that sways softly.
The spoon stirred the coffee, and An Rui was absent-minded, sometimes looking at the door, sometimes looking at the street, as if waiting for something.
"Miss, you, it's almost time, we should go to the train station, if it's delayed, otherwise what else should the master?" Xinyu saw that she ignored her, and stopped talking.
The wind chimes on the wooden door rang, and when he looked up, a figure broke into An Rui's sight, no! Slightly disappointed, she lowered her head and muttered: Will he come?
Looking at himself reflected in the black coffee, An Rui couldn't help but feel ridiculous, he, except for knowing that his name was Mu Bai, he didn't know anything about the rest of the information. Her mind was chaotic, and several thoughts turned in an instant.
Stroking the scarf, An Rui thought to herself: It's just a scarf, maybe he didn't pay attention to it at all, but I? Her heart sank, and she got up to leave.
Standing in the street, An Rui walked slowly without knowing the pedestrians and vehicles coming and going, and the sound of the tram 'ding ding dong' sounded in her ears from time to time, as if even it was responding to the bustle and noise of the city.
While Anrui plunged into the crowd and left, a car stopped in front of the café.
Rolling down the window, revealing a handsome face reflecting the sun, he looked at the position by the window, thoughtful.
Will she come again today?
got out of the car, Rong Chu lit a cigarette, leaned sideways, his fingers turned the lighter, recalling yesterday's picture, thinking of her cute appearance of anger and urgency, he couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly.
The cigarette butt burned out, the spark burned his fingers, and the hot pain made Rong Chu come back to his senses.
He snuffed out the cigarette butt, as if he had thought of something, and was going to try his luck there, but when he turned around and was about to leave, he raised his eyes, fixed his gaze, and smiled lightly.
