Xiang Wan bit his toothbrush and replied slowly: I was too tired to go shopping with them yesterday, and I went to bed early at night, so I'm sorry, I didn't see the news.

Zuo Xingyun probably won't respond to this belated reply, so she didn't look at her phone again after sending the message.

After washing up and going downstairs, she and Zuo Xingyun met at the top of the staircase.

Zuo Xingyun stepped on the steps casually, his straight suit set off his figure long, and the effect of the gold-rimmed glasses seemed to be to hide some of his innate arrogance.

Xiang Wan took the initiative to say hello: "Morning." ”

"Looks like you had a good night's sleep last night." Zuo Xingyun's eyes were a little smiling, and there seemed to be some deep meaning hidden in these words.

Xiang Wan couldn't help but feel weak for a while: "Uh...... Yes, I hope I can keep it up in the future, sleep well, and feel refreshed. ”

Zuo Xingyun did not answer.

Once on the first floor, he walked straight to the entrance, apparently not going to eat breakfast.

Xiang Wan looked at the gray sky outside and reminded, "There is heavy rain today. ”

Zuo Xingyun didn't look back, just waved his hand, signaling that he understood.

On the way to school, Xiang Wan stared at Ah Chen, who was in a good mood in the driver's seat, and asked coldly, "Why did Zuo Xingyun go for the two days on the weekend?" He came home in the middle of the night on Saturday night, and there was still blood on his clothes. ”

Ah Chen suddenly made an alarm: "Huh? Not...... I don't know, I'm not with Brother Yun. ”

Isn't that just nonsense?

Xiang Wan was speechless for a while: "I'm just worried about what trouble he will encounter, just forget it if you don't say it." ”

Ah Chen closed his mouth and pretended to be stupid, and his eyes glanced around excitedly and stupidly. If Zuo Xingyun was really not afraid that Xiang Wan would know, he would have told her a long time ago, what Zuo Xingyun didn't say, where would he dare to shake out?

Yesterday the sun was shining, but today it has completely changed.

Dark clouds and black pressure were deposited over the entire city, as if a long-lost heavy rain was brewing.

The car drove to the school gate, and as soon as Xiang Evening went down, it was almost impossible to walk an inch by the strong wind, and the long hair that was scattered flew on his face indiscriminately, which particularly obstructed his vision.

Ah Chen looked at this posture, lest she be blown away by the wind, so he hurriedly got out of the car and blocked the windward outlet with his body: "You young girls love to lose weight, and you think that thin is good-looking, look at it, you can't walk in the wind, right?" ”

Xiang Wan wanted to scold him, but seeing that he was so dutiful to help her block most of the wind, he held back.

After sending her to the school gate, Ah Chen returned to the car.

Seeing that the weather was so terrifying, when he got indoors, he sent a message to Ah Chen, asking him to go home first, and then pick her up after class, no need to wait in the car all the time, there was no need for that.

On a rainy day, the night came early, and by the time school was out in the afternoon, it was already dark.

There was a traffic jam on the road, almost impassable, Ah Chen drove all the way and scolded all the way, so he almost stuck his head out of the car window and shouted with a horn.

Xiang Wan looked at him like this and thought it was funny: "Why are you so irritable?" Don't be in a hurry, open slowly, safety first. ”

Ah Chen immediately changed his face to her, and smiled: "Aren't I afraid that you will be hungry?" It's been blocked for almost an hour. ”

I can't complain that Ah Chen is irritable, because the time to go home today is two hours faster than usual.

Returning to the door of Xiang's house, Xiang Wan saw Zhang's mother waiting in front of the gate with an umbrella through the rain, and a warm flow flowed in her heart.

Seeing that she was back, Zhang's mother immediately stepped forward, lest she be drenched with a drop of rain.

Xiang Wan got out of the car and held Zhang's mother's arm affectionately: "I'm dying of hunger, the road is too congested." ”

Mother Zhang patted the back of her cold hand dotingly: "The second master hasn't come back, Miss Yu is still waiting for you to eat, the food is hot, and you can eat it right away." ”

There was a sudden thunderbolt, and Xiang Wan shrank his neck in fright.

Zhang's mother reflexively reached out to cover her ears: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid." ”

Zhang's mother's palms are rough but warm, and for Xiang Wan, she is not only a maid who has been in Xiang's house for many years, but also a relative.

As soon as I entered the door, I went to the dining room to eat, it was almost eight o'clock, and I was really hungry.

Zhang's mother stayed by her side to help her do the work of peeling the shells of the shrimp and picking the spines of the fish, and served her properly.

Yu Shuqi also observed during this time that Xiang Wan almost stretched out her hand to eat to open her mouth, and when her family was good in the past, she did not have this kind of treatment. At first, she was a little surprised, but after watching too much, she got used to it.

Suddenly, a servant hurried in.

After glancing at the dining room, he hurriedly turned to leave.

Zhang's mother stopped her: "Are you looking for Lao Yuan?" ”

The servant stopped and replied: "Yes, Mother Zhang, there is a strange person kneeling in the rain at the door, looking at the infiltrating people, and the bodyguards are staring, I can't find Uncle Yuan." ”

Xiang Wan was a little puzzled: "Weirdos? ”

The servant didn't know what to say for a while: "It's just weird...... said that he wanted to see the second master, and told him that the second master was not there, and he did not leave, and he stopped talking. ”

Xiang Wan put down his chopsticks and stood up: "I'll take a look." ”

Zhang's mother followed her worriedly: "I'll be with you, Miss Yu won't go out, it's raining, and you're pregnant again." ”

"Good ......" Although Yu Shuqi was curious, she still couldn't bear not to join in the fun.

Xiang Wan walked to the gate with Zhang's mother with an umbrella, and sure enough, he saw a man kneeling in the rain, and two bodyguards staring at him left and right.

The man hung his head low, and the blood stains on his clothes that could not be washed away by the rain were faintly visible.

This scene was a little scary, Xiang Wan didn't dare to get too close, and shouted from a distance of a few meters: "Who are you?!" ”

The man raised his head slightly and glanced at her, but didn't speak, perhaps because she wasn't the person he wanted to see.

Xiang Wan took a few steps closer with courage: "You can tell me what you are looking for Zuo Xingyun, I can convey it." ”

Hearing this, the man finally responded, and his voice was hoarse: "I have to see him......"

Suddenly, Uncle Yuan hurried over: "Miss, go back, I'll deal with it here." ”

When he heard the word 'Miss', the man's eyes lit up.

Xiang Wan was about to turn around and enter the house, when the man suddenly got up and pounced on her with an arrow, holding a knife that he didn't know where to take it out and pressing it against her slender neck.

This sudden situation shocked everyone, and Zhang's mother reacted and howled in a trembling voice: "What are you doing here?!" You let go of our young lady! ”

Xiang Wan was stupid, he didn't expect to fly into trouble.

The umbrella in her hand fell to the ground, and the whole person was exposed to the pouring rain, and she couldn't tell whether the rain was cooler or the knife on her neck was colder.

The man excitedly shouted at everyone, "You all stand back! As long as I see Zuo Xingyun, I don't want to kill anyone, don't force me! ”

Uncle Yuan was silent: "The second master is not here, and it will take some time for him to rush back, so it is better to go in and sit and drink a cup of hot tea, there is no need to make it like this." ”
