35 Light and Shadow

Half-open floor-to-ceiling windows are tightly covered by heavy curtains, and the pine-colored wooden floors exude a sense of time. The large room is lined with tall bookshelves, neatly arranged with a variety of books. The baroque fireplace is silently lit with a flaming red flame, and the tongue of fire jumps flexibly. There sat a man, a man, a handsome man, in front of the large pear blossom wood desk by the fireplace.

Dressed in a black Tang suit, the neckline and cuffs are embroidered with gold thread with budding calendula. The gold-rimmed eyes rested on the bridge of the nose, and the thin lenses seemed to block the deep eyes behind.

He leaned back in an armchair, his legs folded with a thick album full of pictures of the same child. A child who was born like a little monkey, a child with rosy cheeks when the moon is full, a child who shows his personality at the beginning of his first year, a child who falls to the ground as a toddler and cries, a little fart who grabs his trouser leg and wipes his snot and tears. The little fart who went to kindergarten and fought with his classmates, the little fart who took him to the beach to bury himself in the sand and couldn't open his mouth wide and scream for help, the little fart who rode on the head of the bodyguard and dragged other people's hair, the little fart who slowly grew up to be powerful in school but had surprisingly good grades, and gradually became more and more assertive but farther and farther away from himself. His gaze stayed on a certain place, the child in the photo was holding a small flat head and holding a football and the teenagers of the same age behind him hooked shoulders and squeezed together, although the white jersey on his body was soaked in sweat and the sneakers were dirty and could not be seen, but his face was innocent and clean. The corners of the man's mouth hooked up a bitter and helpless smile, his son had never smiled like this anymore. However, the son is going to inherit the family business, so such an innocent smile is unacceptable. After all, I can't protect him under my wings forever, and if you want not to be bullied, you can only keep making your heart indestructible.

Rubbing his fingers against the child's immature cheeks in the photo, the man who had been holding on for so long was a little shaken for the first time. Did you really do something wrong?

A sudden knock on the door interrupted the man's train of thought. He immediately opened the drawer and carefully put the album in and locked it.

"Come in. ”

The gray-haired, kind-hearted, tuxedo-clad old man walked in.

"Master, Miss Yin is here, saying that she wants to see you, and now she is in the living room. ”

"Call her in. ”

"Yes. ”

After a while, a tall woman in a long rose dress walked into the study. She was a little surprised when she came in and saw the dark room, but she quickly calmed down.

"Uncle Su, long time no see. ”

"It's Susu, it's been a long time. Is there anything going on this time? ”

"I haven't seen my uncle for a long time, and I came here with strange thoughts. ”

"You kid is like smeared honey on your mouth, so that all the uncles and uncles can't help but hurt you. ”

"Oh, I mean it sincerely. ”

"Okay, okay, Uncle can't talk about you. Sit, I asked Uncle Yang to make tea. ”

"Eh, don't bother so much, uncle, actually, it's really a bit of a problem for me to come over. ”

"Something? ”

"That's the kind of uncle, it's the same thing you told me last time, I've already found a good opportunity. You can get people in in a few days. When the woman said this, her hands involuntarily clenched, and all ten fingers were twisted together

"Oh, yes. The man replied casually.

The woman's eyebrows twitched: "Uncle, what about cooperation......"

"Now that you've done it, uncle, I'm not the one to talk about it. ”

"That's Su Su here now, thank you, uncle!"

"Look at you happily. ”

"Then, uncle, I won't bother you. ”

"When you go back, remember to help me bring it to your father. ”

"Su Su understands. ”

The man also saw that she had just come to probe for the situation, and since she had already done so, there was no reason to stay here, so he let her go without much retention.

The woman controlled the speed of her steps and walked out of the study, and after the door closed, she couldn't help but hold on to the wall. This is really unaccustomed to the short talk of the head of the Su family, looking amiable on the surface like a kind uncle, in fact, who on the road does not know that Su Ye is notoriously moody and tyrannical, if he accidentally says something wrong and annoys him, it is not his own business, and it is still a real Yin family. She stood up and eased her breath, lowered her head to sort out her facial expressions, and when she looked up again, she was the elegant and capable Yin family daughter again.

When he went downstairs, he met Uncle Yang, the old housekeeper of the Su family, and he still had that tired smirk on his face. He bowed to the woman, who nodded in return. The two passed by without saying anything. It's just that she seems to have seen Uncle Yang's sneer. Her fingers trembled, and she pretended not to see anything and felt nothing, and calmly walked down the hall out of the courtyard and into her car.

Uncle Yang slowly walked up to the second floor with tea, stopped in front of the study, and only after knocking on the door to get permission did he unscrew the handle and go in. The man remained in the same position he had been in when he had entered, but seemed to be thinking about something. He approached the desk and placed the tea on the table, without making any noise to disturb his master.

"Lao Yang, do you think I don't look like a father at all. You see, he hasn't called me dad since he was sensible. ”

Uncle Yang, who has been in this family for most of his life, doesn't know what the master is talking about, and he also sees the changes in the relationship between the master and the young master.

"Master, you love the young master, what father doesn't love his son, it's just that the way you express it is more special, the young master always misunderstands. ”

"This boy, I told him to go east, but he wanted to go west. ”

"Master, young master, this is a rebellious period that everyone will have. ”

"He's twenty years old and still in a rebellious period! Old Yang, do you think I really can't teach children? ”

After listening to his master's words, Uncle Yang dropped a big drop of sweat on his head. Holding a gun to tell his son to get up, threatening to kill at every turn, and always staging a live spring palace in front of his son, especially the taboo of men and men, it is indeed not good for the healthy development of teenagers' minds............

"Master, this still has to be done slowly, and the young master will naturally understand it in the future. ”

"Yes. ”

"Nature, nature. ”

"Let me think about it, go down first. ”

"Yes. ”

The man leaned back in his chair with a rare sigh, grabbing territory to suppress the enemy is really nothing compared to educating children.

The silver moon hung in the starry sky, lonely and glowing. Pieces of starlight poured down, and the mountain villas by the mountains and rivers looked particularly elegant and quiet in this moonlight.

And Luoyang City, which is also illuminated by such a moon, is even more noisy and enthusiastic.

Li Lingsheng, who has been insisting on being an otaku in the past few days, was dragged out of the gang territory by Dao Lin and Huang Quan, and wanted to go to Luoyang City to see the excitement.

It's almost the New Year, Luoyang City has been playing a variety of different programs every night these days, and the game company has probably surrounded it to better set off the atmosphere of the New Year, and the streets and alleys of Luoyang City have been hung with red lanterns and clothed with red silk cloth. Festive red peppers hang in front of residents' doors, and children play pranks on the streets with improvised firecrackers in their hands.

At this time, at night in Luoyang City, orange lights were lit up everywhere, and the lights were warm at a glance. At this time, there is no curfew, everyone comes out to watch the excitement, and the vendors naturally do not miss such a good season, and they have resorted to new tricks to retain the hearts of customers.

Dao Lin and Huang Quan pulled this Li Lingsheng to see the dragon dance lantern first, and then took him to the moat to put the lantern. The meandering moat is adorned with all kinds of lanterns, and the candlelight seems to put on a bright new coat for the moat. This lantern is not only put by the elderly people to pray for the luck of the coming year, but also many men and women who love each other come to put the lantern, which is also the hope that the love of the newlyweds in the coming year will be sweet and beautiful. The three of them were very unlucky, and when they went to put on the lights, there was a pair of young lovers who had not yet decided to marry. That love story is a race and a sweet, a race and a greasy. Huang Quan touched the goosebumps on his body, bared his teeth, and Dao Lin laughed disappreciatively, thinking that when he was chasing Shanyi, his love words were much more explicit than this. Only Li Lingsheng listened to these words, and a halberd instantly appeared in his mind, and the lantern in his hand fell into the river with a shake of his hand. Li Lingsheng couldn't help but pull the corners of his mouth in embarrassment, Dao Lin and Huang Quan didn't say anything in their eyes, just patted him on the shoulder with a smile and signaled that he didn't have to mind this.

"Sister-in-law, these are boring. Dao Lin suddenly said sternly

"I won't ......," Li Lingsheng said honestly.

"Oops, don't comfort us. It's not uncommon to put lanterns to watch the dragon dance, can it not be boring. Huang Quan pouted.

“............”

"Then let's go do something that isn't boring!"

Li Lingsheng looked at Dao Lin suspiciously.

"Eh, why do you look at me like that! I'm honest, okay? ”

"Come on, bald donkey. Lead the way. ”

"Okay, it's not far, but the road is a little bit around you. ”

Dao Lin said that this road is a bit winding and it is really not an ordinary winding, turning left and right, turning seven and eight times, and in the end Huang Quan no longer remembers the direction in which he is in Luoyang City.

"I'll it, who has a problem, and built the shop in the labyrinth. Huang Quan was supported by Li Lingsheng, and his head was still spinning.

"Hehe, what do you little hairy boy know, let my brother take you to Lele today. ”

Waiting for Huangquan to ease up a little, Li Lingsheng raised his head and saw a beautiful attic in front of him. The plaque is strange and does not hang high on the door beam, but stands at the gate, and the gilded characters of the three dragons flying and the phoenix dancing are particularly eye-catching.

"Leaning on the Moon Tower. Li Lingsheng called out the name softly.

The slightly open door suddenly creaked and was pushed open, and a woman wearing a long embroidered skirt of Luo blue juan gauze and gold silk, with a flushed pink face, and a woman with a look of envy walked out with a pipe in her mouth and twisting the waist of the water snake. The silver hairpin in her hair was loosely inserted on it, the bun hung loosely behind her head, her peach blossom eyes were slightly drunk, and she was graceful and lazy and charming.

The jade hand with the black mandala flower juice on the fingernails clamped the pipe on the mouth, and the red lips opened slightly.

"Welcome to the Moon Tower. ”
