Chapter 17: A New Beginning

Walking out of the residential building, I suddenly felt that the outside world was so beautiful that it made me feel the urge to embrace it. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

After taking a hard breath of fresh air, my brain cleared up a lot, and instead of taking Xu Long's van, I walked blindly and alone on the street, thinking in a daze.

I took out my phone from my pocket, and selected Nie Qian's phone but hesitated not to dial it, how should I explain it to her?

Tell her the whole truth?

No, no!

Before leaving, Lu Yong specifically instructed that the relationship between us must be kept secret and that no one should mention it. But even if I don't have this instruction, I can't involve Nie Qian, the tragedy of three years ago is vivid, and I must not let it happen again!

Just when I was thinking about how to explain to Nie Qian, the phone suddenly rang, it was Lin Hui's phone, I pressed the answer button and before I could speak, Lin Hui's anxious voice had already sounded on the other end of the phone.

"Hey, Luo Jun? Is that you? Luo Jun! ”

"It's me, Lin Hui, is something wrong? Why are you so flustered? ”

Hearing my voice, Lin Hui's anxious tone suddenly eased a lot, "What do you still say, no one answered your phone for a day after calling you yesterday, and no one went to your house, and I thought you had an accident, I was really anxious!" ”

His words made my heart surge with warmth, at this time, every care seemed so precious, "I'm really sorry, there was something wrong with the phone yesterday, I took it to fix it, where are you now?" "I'm lying a little bit.

"I just came out of the police station, you're fine, um... It's almost time for dinner, how about going out for lunch together? ”

I agreed to Lin Hui's proposal, and after agreeing on the time and place, I hung up the phone, and then dialed another one to Nie Qian.

On the other end of the phone, Nie Qian, who heard my voice, was emotional and couldn't stop sobbing, and it took me a lot of comfort to calm her down.

I told her that I had called the police and that the police would send someone to protect me, so I didn't have to worry about the driver's gang anymore. As for the fugitive's big hat on his head, the police will also investigate and deal with it truthfully, anyway, in a word, the rain has passed and the sky is clear.

For my choice, Nie Qian seemed very happy, she didn't have any doubts, and coquettishly said that she wanted to see me immediately, I decided to take her to lunch after a little thought, Lin Hui would never mind having a beautiful woman with her, I told her where to eat, and then reluctantly hung up the phone.

I glanced at the time displayed on my phone, at 10:35, I haven't even eaten a stable meal in the past few days, I hope Lu Yong won't call again before the end of lunch today.

I walked to the intersection and stopped a taxi, and went straight to the date place, a well-known hot pot restaurant in the city, because it was not yet time to eat, there were few customers in the store, and I just pushed the door in, and I saw Lin Hui waving to me at a glance.

I walked to the seat opposite him and sat down, Lin Hui didn't speak, his eyes kept rolling on me, as if he had seen something strange.

I was pinched by him, frowned, and said, "What are you kid looking at?" I'm not a woman, am I that good-looking? ”

Who knew that Lin Hui smiled and said quite mysteriously: "What do you say I'm looking at?" Honestly, I couldn't find you all day yesterday, did you go out and fool around? ”

"A dog can't spit out ivory!" I reached out and slapped him the top of the head.

Lin Hui covered his head and said unconvinced: "You dare to say no? I don't look in the mirror, I can't hide the spring light on my face. ”

I've been going, it's been two days, is it so obvious? According to him, isn't he looking lewd?!

I cleared my throat a little weakly and began to think of a way to change the subject, "How's that?" How are you doing at the police station these days? ”

Lin Hui cooperated very well and didn't ask any more questions, but there was a sense of pride between his eyebrows, like a soldier who had won a battle, "It's all good, except for Zhu Lu..."

"Zhu Lu?! What happened to him? I interrupted him anxiously.

"Can you let me finish my sentence?" Lin Hui glared at me reproachfully and said, "Zhu Lu is fine, it's just that he left here the day before yesterday and went abroad." ”

"Going abroad?" This answer surprised me, "Can he go abroad now?" ”

Lin Hui pouted and scratched his head and said: "I don't know about this, it stands to reason that he can't leave this city before the case is closed, but now that he is gone, I think it should be some connections, because I heard him talk about it before, it seems that someone in the family is an official." ”

I see, I suddenly realized, as the saying goes, money can make ghosts grind, and now that the world is a powerful and wealthy family, it is not surprising that Zhu Lu violated the law with the help of his family's background.

"Alas, alas, let's order food first, if you have something to say while eating, I'm dying of hunger." Lin Hui complained with a bitter face while touching his stomach, looking hungry and pitiful.

"Wait."

I stopped him, looked outside the store, and called Nie Qian again, and after making sure that she was almost there, I said to Lin Hui: "Okay, you can order it, but you have a treat for today's meal." ”

"Well, I say, you're too rude, aren't you?" Lin Hui's eyes widened, pretending to be angry.

I leaned forward slightly, lowered my voice and said mysteriously, "There will be a beautiful woman coming in a while, didn't I want you to have a chance to perform?" ”

Hearing that a beautiful woman was coming, Lin Hui immediately conjured a flattering smile, "Hey, I'm kidding, see if you take it seriously, what beauty is not beautiful, isn't it just a meal, I have to come." In the end, he generously clapped his chest.

I pretended to be casual on my face, but I secretly smiled in my heart, and when you knew who the beautiful woman was, I could only eat coptis dumbly.

Knowing that a beautiful woman was coming, Lin Hui put a lot of effort into it, not only ordered several more dishes, but even tailored healthy meals for Nie Qian, such as which foods are good for the skin and which are good for beauty, etc., not to mention whether it is correct or not, this carefulness alone makes me, a genuine boyfriend, embarrassed, it seems that the reason why this kid likes women is not only because of that clever mouth.

About ten minutes later, when the hot pot ingredients were all served on the table, Nie Qian and the others were already standing in front of the two of us, yes, I was not wrong, it was them, not her, and Nie Qian was not someone else, it was her roommate Zhong Lu.

Suddenly two beauties with their own charms came, no wonder Lin Hui's eyes were straight, but seriously, Nie Qian is very beautiful today, her face is intertwined with joy and charm, this heartfelt outpouring also adds a bit of femininity to her beauty.

However, I slowly found that Lin Hui's eyes always stayed on Zhong Lu, of course, Zhong Lu is also a rare beauty, although she has her own style, but it is still worse than Nie Qian, but the green vegetables and radishes are good, this is understandable, but a veteran like Lin Hui, who has read countless women, it is obviously not something he will do.

Of course, it's best if he doesn't have fun with Nie Qian, at least it can save a lot of unnecessary trouble, and I feel relieved when I think about it.

Nie Qian smiled sweetly at me and said, "Xiaolu is resting today, I see that she is home alone, so I just asked her to come along, it's okay, right?" ”

"It's okay." I pointed to the table and said, "Lin Hui likes to entertain beauties the most, he has a treat today, you see, the dishes on this big table have been ordered." ”

"Luo Jun, you... Don't talk nonsense. ”

Lin Hui protested in a slightly wryled whisper, and I deliberately raised my voice and teased: "What am I talking nonsense? Do you want to pay for it and not treat you? ”

"Who said that!" Lin Hui glared at me, and hurriedly got up to greet Nie Qian and them, "Sit down, you two, I'll treat you to whatever you want to eat, it's not enough to order more." ”

As he spoke, he was about to walk to me, looking awkward, as if he wanted to sit next to me.

At present, this kid can't let go of the times, it's a big joke.

However, before he had time to make his wishful thinking, Nie Qian had already sat down in the vacant seat next to me one step ahead of him, and at this time Lin Hui seemed to see the relationship between the two of us, with a sudden look on his face, he smiled at Zhong Lu, and sat down side by side with her.

No one spoke, the atmosphere was a little weirdly quiet, Lin Hui went against his usual personality, and actually began to shake the meat without saying a word, and his eyes never left his chopsticks, as if the beef on it was fatter than the beauties around him.

The guest was silent, the atmosphere suddenly became a little solemn, and seeing the embarrassing scene, I finally couldn't help but say, "Lin Hui, are you okay?" Today, you have to say a few words, right? How can it be as quiet as a quail? ”

"How?" Lin Hui frowned, pointed to the hot pot and said, "Eat, everyone, you're welcome, eat more." As soon as he finished speaking, he buried his head in eating again.

I rolled my eyes angrily, I didn't understand what kind of medicine was sold in this kid's gourd? How is it that in the blink of an eye, he seems to have changed as a person?

Nie Qian also seemed to see that Lin Hui was wrong, and put her mouth to my ear and whispered, "What's wrong with your friend?" Did I bring Xiaolu to upset him without permission? ”

"No, maybe this kid is playing some tricks again, don't worry about him." I replied.

Nie Qian nodded suspiciously, said a few words to Zhong Lu, and then looked at me again and asked with concern: "Jun, has that matter really been resolved now?" Do you know how anxious I was when I couldn't get through to you yesterday? Luckily, someone told me that I was safe at night, otherwise I wouldn't have known how to spend the whole night! ”

"It's okay, now the police are taking over, I just need to cooperate with them." I looked at her lovingly, softly comforting.

Nie Qian smiled happily, she didn't ask for details, which saved me a lot of tongue.

"But don't be so gullible in the future, what if the person who called you is lying to you?" This simple girl, it is still necessary to remind her.

"Lie to me? Lie to me with your phone and say you're good? Nie Qian flashed her beautiful big eyes and looked confused.

"It's always good to be careful, after all, the murderer hasn't been caught yet, you know?" I said in a slightly commanding tone.

Nie Qian responded sweetly, I enjoyed the way she looked at me at the moment, a slightly dependent look, which made me feel the urge to protect her for the rest of my life.

After a long time, Nie Qian retracted her gaze, looked at Zhong Lu, who hadn't spoken much, and asked strangely, "Xiaolu, why are you so quiet today?" ”

"No, I ...... I just didn't find what I wanted to talk about. Zhong Lu replied.

I looked at Lin Hui, who had a wooden expression, and said with great dissatisfaction: "Lin Hui, did you hear it?" How can you treat a guest like this, leaving all the guests aside? Alas, Lin Hui, I said did you hear me?! ”

"Huh? What the? Lin Hui was startled by the sound of my approaching roar, and then he came back to his senses as if he had just woken up from a dream, and said to the donkey's lips, "By the way, Luo Jun, you... You haven't introduced me to your friends yet. ”

"So you know there's someone else here!" I teased, "This is my girlfriend Nie Qian, and sitting next to you is her roommate, Zhong Lu." ”

Lin Hui nodded again and again, and greeted the two with a stiff smile, "Don't patronize and talk, come, eat, eat more, don't waste it." ”

I was finally amused by his strange expression, and laughed out loud, "I can't help you, by the way, do you really plan to wait until the case is closed before leaving the police station?" ”

My words caught Zhong Lu's attention, and she raised her head to look at me, and then at Lin Hui, with a look of worry in her puzzled eyes.

"I don't know, if I can, I want to stay a few more days, after all, the police station is safer than outside, at least the murderer doesn't dare to follow up rashly." Lin Hui said.

I hesitated for a moment, but decided to tell the story, "Actually, the person who followed us was not the murderer, but the police sent by Lu Yong. ”

"Police?!" Lin was stunned for a moment, and then was so excited that he almost didn't lift the pot in front of him, "Really? How do you know? ”

"It was Lu Yong who told me personally."

Lin Hui stared into my eyes for a long time before he let out a long breath and asked puzzledly, "Why did he do this?" Protect us? Or investigate us? ”

"It's a bit of both, but one thing is for sure, we don't have to worry about it all day like we did the other day."

I said this with the intention of making Lin Hui easier, but people are not as good as heaven, but I didn't expect that it was my own words that caused another tragedy soon after.

Lin Hui seemed to suddenly come to his senses, and said excitedly: "If this is the case, I won't stay at the police station today, no matter how safe that place is, I will never have the comfort and freedom of home." ”

"I think it's better to be careful, after all, the bad guy hasn't been caught yet." Zhong Lu whispered on the side.

Nie Qian and I glanced at each other, Zhong Lu's gentleness and reserve surprised us, is this still the woman who shouted that she was going to knock on the door of me and Nie Qian in the middle of the night last night?

Looking at Lin Hui again, his reaction was even more strange, he nodded embarrassedly, and thanked him repeatedly, but his eyes were wandering around, slightly cramped, people who didn't know would definitely think that Lin Hui was an honest young man who was easy to be shy in front of girls.

My gut tells me that there must be something wrong with these two people!
