Chapter 172: Strike First
"You wait, I'll go tell you. You look at him, don't let him go up. One of the guards said. After that, it's gone. Leave the other person up.
Zhu Xingheng sat down on the stone steps, turned his back to the person who stayed to watch him, and said, "There are so many people in this area below, they are all crowded. The top piece is still empty, why don't you let people come up. ”
"You don't have to worry about this, we have our own rules. Where are you from? How did you meet Sister Wang? The person who stayed to watch Zhu Xingheng said.
"You don't have to worry about my business." Zhu Xingheng said with a smile.
The messenger soon arrived at a very nice house above. In the vicinity of this house, there are also guards, but a little away from the house. When I saw him coming, I stopped him. After explaining the situation, someone went to inform the people in the house. After a while, the person who came to report the news was called in.
This is one of the best rooms in the hot spring resort. After entering, there were two people, a man and a woman, sitting in the living room. The people who came to deliver the message hurried to greet these two people.
"It's so late, what's the matter?" The man woman asked.
"Sister Wang, I came to say, I know you and want to come up. We're not sure what he's doing, so we'll let you know. The messenger said.
"Know me? There are more people who know me. Who does he say he is? The woman said as she took a sip of her coffee.
"Having said that, he said his name was Zhu Xingheng." The messenger said.
The woman's hand trembled, and the coffee cup and saucer collided, and the coffee spilled out of the quilt. It can be seen. After hearing Zhu Xingheng and the three of them, this person reacted a little big.
The man next to him. saw the woman's reaction, and immediately realized that the woman knew this Zhu Xingheng. And it's not as simple as the general understanding. He hadn't heard a woman talk about Zhu Xingheng.
"What else did that man say?" The woman puts the coffee down. Asked.
He also asked if there was a person named Jiang Hong. There aren't many of the others. The messenger said.
The woman was silent, and so was the man beside her. Jiang Hong's name, both of them know. Someone here has also heard of the name, but it's been a while.
"That person named Zhu Xingheng, how is his strength? What kind of gear are you wearing? The man sitting on the couch asked.
The messenger thought for a moment and said, "I didn't see the equipment, just ordinary clothes, and some of them were torn." It doesn't look like a person with any strength. ”
He didn't say that his hand was grabbed by Zhu Xingheng, and it hurt a lot. It's a shame. He didn't want to say it. In case after saying it, he will not be needed for the above piece, and it will not be good to drive him down.
"How can someone who can come up not be equipped. It is estimated that I did not wear it. Go and call him up. No matter how you say it, they are all friends, and you can't leave out that others are not. The woman said.
The messenger said yes and walked out. There were only two people left in the room, a man and a woman. The man looked at the woman next to him. The woman lowered her head slightly at first, thinking about something. Not a little longer. The woman laughed mysteriously.
"It's funny how he found it. I don't know if it's cornered, or if it's really just passing by. The woman said.
"Looks like you know this person well? Where did he come from? Do you have a holiday? The man asked.
The woman shook her head and said, "Probably not before." Even if there were, it was in the past. But now, it is likely to become. This wish Xingheng. used to be Jiang Hong's best friend. It's just that two years ago, they fell out. ”
"It's because of you that you fell out, right?" The man said with a smile.
The woman didn't speak either. Just laugh along. She picked up the coffee on the table again and drank it. His gaze revealed a hint of cunning.
Zhu Xingheng will come up soon. When he came to the vicinity of the house, there was a man and a woman who were originally in the house. Already waiting for him at the door. Zhu Xingheng, who came up, also saw the person at the door.
"It's really you. I just told sù that I was here with you, and I still don't believe it. I didn't expect it to be you. The woman looked surprised and happy, and quickly greeted her. After that, he hugged Zhu Xingheng.
"There's no one else pretending to be me." Zhu Xingheng said with a smile. I hugged the woman too.
"Come in and talk inside. I didn't expect you to come. How are you doing lately......" The woman said as she pulled Zhu Xingheng inside. Others do what they should do.
This woman's name is Wang Yufeng, and she has known Zhu Xingheng for many years. They knew each other when they were in elementary school. At that time, they also had a friend named Jiang Hong. The three of them always play together. They just grew up together. Later, when they grew up, the three of them were still good friends.
Maybe it's a bit old-fashioned. After growing up, Zhu Xingheng and Wang Yufeng became a couple. Originally, it was very smooth, but I didn't think that more than two years ago, when Zhu Xingheng was preparing for the wedding, Wang Yufeng split his legs. And it's also with his best friend Jiang Hong.
When he learned about this, Zhu Xingheng rushed directly to Jiang Hong's house and beat Jiang Hong up. At the same time that Jiang Hong was sent to the hospital, Zhu Xingheng himself was also in the detention center. When it was time to be released, it was Jiang Hong who came to pick him up.
Any grievance has a time to be resolved. Zhu Xingheng The grievances between the three of them have also been resolved. Although he remembered the feelings of his friends for many years, as well as Jiang Hong and Wang Yufeng's good attitude of admitting their mistakes, Zhu Xingheng let go of this matter. But they haven't been in touch since.
At that time, Jiang Hong was preparing to build a hot spring villa and invested a lot of money. Before the splitting happened, Zhu Xingheng came to see the villa under construction once. This time he stumbled upon this place, and he came to see his old friend.
"I haven't seen you for two years, and you're still the same, haven't changed at all. You're really, you haven't contacted us once in two years. Are you still angry? "After sitting down. Wang Yufeng said.
"How so. It's just too busy to take care of it. It's good now. Don't be busy. Isn't that all there is to it? What about Jiang Hong, why didn't you see Jiang Hong? Zhu Xingheng said.
Jiang Hong was mentioned. Wang Yufeng's face changed immediately. She became sad, and tears began to roll in her eyes. She choked up and said, "He's gone." When the monster first appeared, it was attacked by a monster. He didn't make it. ”
Wang Yufeng said very sadly, but Zhu Xingheng just nodded slightly, oh. I don't see any sadness. When he came up, he had already guessed that this was the result.
Zhu Xingheng and Jiang Hong, as well as Wang Yufeng, they grew up together. There is still a lot of understanding between each other. Although it is said that people grow up. There will always be change. There are people who suddenly become something you don't know. But some people, and most people, have a little bit of character in their bones that cannot be changed.
For Zhu Xingheng, Wang Yufeng has changed a lot. He used to think he knew her very well, the person who knew her in the world. But suddenly one day, he realized that he didn't know her anymore. She's changed so much. And Jiang Hong, although he has also changed after growing up. But the character of itself. Yes, not much has changed.
Timid, sympathetic, and very stubborn in some things, these are Jiang Hong's characteristics. It's been like this since I was a child. Two years ago, it was still the same. If Jiang Hong was still alive, he would still be able to have the final say. On the top of the mountain, there will not be only so few people. Now Wang Yufeng is still here. looks like an eldest sister, then Jiang Hong should be dead.
looked at Wang Yufeng's sad look. Zhu Xingheng did not have any change in expression. He looked at the man and asked, "Who is this gentleman?" Why don't you give an introduction. ”
Wang Yufeng wiped her tears at this time, and immediately put on a smiling face, saying, "Look at my memory, I forgot to introduce it." This is Chen Ershan. Originally, I came here to soak in the hot springs, but then the monster appeared and stayed. These days have come thanks to him. If it weren't for him, it is estimated that the people on this mountain would have almost died. ”
"Chen Ershan, this name is too distinctive. Why don't you call Chen Erpao? Zhu Xingheng muttered in his heart, but he coped with it.
Say some clichés, talk about some idle days. After more than twenty minutes, Zhu Xingheng said that it was not early, it was time to rest, and it was time for him to leave.
"You don't have a place to live yet. I'll arrange a place for you to make your stay more comfortable. Stay here in the future, and we will work together. Wang Yufeng said.
Zhu Xingheng did not refuse. Nor could he find any reason to refuse. Having a place to stay, of course, is better than sleeping outside. The house that Wang Yufeng arranged for him is really a very good house.
not only arranged a house for Zhu Xingheng, but also prepared food for him. Zhu Xingheng is not refused. Seeing that there were bags of cooked food among the things he ate, Zhu Xingheng took out a bottle of wine and planned to drink some. The person who happened to bring him food had not left before he stopped him and said that he wanted to have a drink together. The man refused at first, but he couldn't resist the temptation of wine and meat, and quickly sat down and ate and drank with Zhu Xingheng.
Eating and eating, Zhu Xingheng felt bored, there were too few people. And they didn't know each other, and sometimes they would be cold, so they took out some food by themselves, and then took out cigarettes and alcohol, and asked the person to call a few people over to eat and drink together. Of course, the man said that there was no problem, and soon called a few friends, and this time it was lively.
Not far from where Zhu Xingheng lives, it is Wang Yufeng's house. That man, Chen Ershan, is still here. You don't have to think about it to know that the Ershan brothers will not leave. At the window, Wang Yufeng looked at the direction of Zhu Xingheng's house, towards something. After a while, someone came in and said a few words to Wang Yufeng, and then left.
"That friend of yours is quite generous. This time, I'm drinking and chatting with a few guards. I heard that the food is good, and the wine is good. Even I want to join in the fun. Chen Ershan said with a smile.
Wang Yufeng didn't seem to be in the mood to joke. She frowned, as if something was bothering. Of course, she had something to worry about. What worries me is the arrival of Zhu Xingheng.
Of course, Chen Ershan also saw it. He walked up to Wang Yufeng and said, "This Zhu Xingheng seems to make you very annoyed." Are you worried about what he will do after he finds out about Jiang Hong? ”
"I think he's guessed a few of them." Wang Yufeng said.
"He's just here, how did he guess? You wouldn't say he's a fortune teller, but you can predict the prophet. Chen Ershan said.
Wang Yufeng let out a long breath, and she said, "You don't know this person. I have known him since I was a child, and we used to have a good relationship. I know this person well. It's like he understands me and Jiang Hong. Jiang Hong is a good person, a rotten good person who can't be better, and always thinks that everything in this world can be solved peacefully. So his fate was sealed. Zhu Xingheng and Jiang Hong are different. Beneath his smile, there was a dark place. If this darkness is allowed to spread, he will be a complete demon. If you are kind to him, he will remember you for the rest of his life. If you're not treating him well, he's going to have to weigh what happened before. ”
"What? It doesn't matter who he is, and it doesn't matter what happened before. Now he's alone, how many of us are there? Are you still afraid of what kind of storm he will set off? Besides, he didn't know what was going on, and no one else knew. He's here, most likely because he has nowhere to go, and he's come to you. You don't have to think about it so much. Chen Ershan said.
"You're wrong. He didn't come here to come to me, not even to see me. He didn't come here to defect to Jiang Hong. He was able to come here, but he still had a trace of friendship with Jiang Hong in his heart, so he came to take a look. After that, I'll go. Wang Yufeng said.
"That's it. Now that people are here, they know that they can't see Jiang Hong. Then he will be gone. Probably won't come in the future. So what are you worried about. Chen Ershan said.
"Two years ago, the moment Jiang Hong and I fell out with Zhu Xingheng, we would no longer be friends. But Jiang Hong, a rotten good person, didn't want to lose Zhu Xingheng's friend. He's tried so many times. Once at the viaduct, Zhu Xingheng's car had an accident, which happened to be seen by Jiang Hong, who was passing by. It was Jiang Hong who saved Zhu Xingheng, otherwise, Zhu Xingheng would have fallen to his death. I wish Xingheng can no longer be Jiang Hong a friend. But he will return this love. I guess that's what he's here for. If Jiang Hong is still standing here, I don't have to worry about anything. If Jiang Hong is not there, then I will be in danger. I can't let that happen. Gotta get rid of him before he can do anything to me. Wang Yufeng said. (To be continued......)
