Chapter 6: Choice
Mama Li glanced at the commander standing aside in embarrassment, and had to withdraw her hand.
Luo Ying just looked at Meng Changge, and there was still a glimmer of hope in her dark pupils, "Childe, did you really send someone to find my brother?" ”
Meng Changge felt that she was making trouble unreasonably at this time, and was thinking about how to keep her, so he said impatiently, "I said that if there is news, I will naturally tell you, you should go back to your room to recuperate now, what are you running around here!" ”
"So that's the case, and Childe doesn't need to perfunctory me." Luo Ying knew in her heart, her heart was sad, and she said softly, "It's just that I don't understand, for you rich and powerful people, human life is really so cheap?" ”
Meng Changge's expression moved, but he quickly reined in, grabbed her, and was a little angry, "Don't go back to your room soon!" ”
At this time, Nangong Han stepped forward and wanted to take a look at this woman who could make her son, who had always been cold and self-controlled, stand out. He had thought about it before, thinking that even if she was not a peerless beauty, she must be a stunner in the splendid palace who could make a man spend a lot of money. But when he saw Luo Ying, he was shocked.
Although this girl's face is beautiful and beautiful, she is still pale in her purity, and her black eyes are clear and sad, but it is not the same as she thought, but her face is really a little familiar, which makes him think of an old man twenty years ago. Nangong Han couldn't help but ask, "What's your name?" ”
Luo Ying looked at him in a daze, not knowing who the man in military uniform in front of her was.
At this time, Mama Li nudged her, "This is the commander, ask you!" ”
Luo Ying said her name, and Nangong Han's eyes showed a slight disappointment. He examined her and asked, "Where did you come from, and why did you get into that place in the Splendid Palace?" ”
Luo Ying glanced at Meng Changge, the emotion in his eyes was unpredictable, and suddenly made her feel a little chilly. But the majesty of the commander pressed over, so she didn't dare to think about it, so she had to answer truthfully, "My brother and I were originally from Nanping Town, and after my father died, we came here to make a living. ”
Nangong Han sighed inaudibly, he naturally knew Zhang Shaomin's character, and knew that the girl in front of him was not what he thought before, but really innocent. But he wouldn't let his son have a bad relationship with the Zhang family, so he hesitated for a moment, but still spoke, "Miss Luo, you can't stay here, are you willing to go back to Nangong Mansion with me?" When the time comes, you change your name and surname, and you won't have these troubles! ”
Luo Ying was stunned, she looked at Meng Changge again as if asking for help, the corner of Meng Changge's mouth pulled out a sneer, and glanced deeply at her father, "The power of the commander is naturally not comparable to me, Luo Ying, the choice is in your hands." If you want to go, I won't stop you......"
He wanted to tell her again that if she wanted to stay, no one would take her away. But when the words came to his lips, they were swallowed back alive. He deliberately avoided her gaze, and although his face was calm, his heart was a little uneasy.
Luo Ying kowtowed to him heavily, and turned to face Nangong Han, "I thank Gongzi for saving his life." Commander, my brother fell into the river with me that day, if the commander is willing to send someone to search for news of him, I am willing to go with the commander! ”
Meng Changge's eyes darkened, he was born rich and prosperous since he was a child, and he had a cold temperament, and he didn't know the kind of family affection that Luo Ying's brothers and sisters were attached to each other in this troubled world. At this moment, I only felt that she was also in love with vanity, and wanted a stronger protection, so she said coldly, "Since Miss Luo Ying has made a choice, then I can only wish the girl a bright future in the future!" I also wish my father a new favorite! ”
Luo Ying didn't pay much attention to the ridicule in his words, and said, "People like us. It's like a wanderer in the water, and you can't help yourself at all! ”
Meng Changge didn't want to talk to her more, so he brushed his sleeves and left. Nangong Han shook his head helplessly, he knew what the thorn in his son's heart was, but he didn't know how to pull it out.
Luo Ying kept watching Meng Changge's back disappear from view, and she felt a trace of pain in her heart. At this time, Nangong Han asked her if there was anything she needed to pack, which made her come back to her senses.
Luo Ying shook her head, "I was alone when I came, I didn't have anything else, and I didn't need to pack anything." ”
On that day, the temperature plummeted. When Luo Ying walked into the car with Nangong Han, she suddenly felt as if a gaze was following her, but when she turned around, it was empty.
In the pillow wind courtyard, Meng Changge stood in the corridor. Listening to the sound of the car outside the door, the voices disappeared, and I couldn't help but stretch out my hand, but I only grabbed a chill.
The wheels of time are relentlessly crushing forward, and five years have passed in a hurry. In the past five years, the domestic situation has changed, although Nangong Han is still sitting in Jiangdong, but the long career of Rong Ma has already hollowed out his body, and he has long since lost his original heroism. The news that the commander was seriously ill had already spread, and the entire Nangong Mansion and even Jiangdong had already had an undercurrent.
In Nangong Mansion, after Nangong Han drank the medicine, he waved his hand and asked everyone to retreat, only letting Luo Ying stay. He asked Luo Ying to read to him the urgent reports from these Fusang troops, and after listening to them, he suddenly asked, "Ah Ying, last time I asked you to send a telegram to your fourth child, can you send it away?" ”
Luo Ying nodded, and said softly, "Commander, don't be anxious, there are many places fighting now, delaying the time for the fourth young master to go home, wait a minute, it should be almost there!" ”
Nangong Han closed his eyes and sighed, "I have four sons, but it's a pity that the eldest went early, the second is stupid, the third is treacherous, only the fourth has a good character, but he is separated from me." It's a pity that I'm Nangong Han, is it really that there is no successor? ”
Seeing this hero's twilight, Luo Ying couldn't help but feel a little sentimental in her heart, and said, "The commander has protected each other for the past five years, and Luo Ying remembers it in his heart. Luo Ying volunteered to become a knife to protect the Nangong family! ”
Nangong Han raised his eyes to look at her and smiled with satisfaction, "Although you and I don't have a father-daughter relationship, we have the righteousness of father and daughter." It's just Ah Ying, this road is really difficult, and I really wronged you! Tonight, I have a task for you, and you are willing to accept it! ”
In five years, this is the first time that Nangong Han has entrusted himself to do things, and Luo Ying nodded.
Nangong Han was still hesitating, and said to her again, "Ah Ying, now that you have the ability to protect yourself, I can also ensure that you are happy and worry-free for the rest of your life, why do you choose such a path?" ”
Luo Ying didn't answer, maybe she didn't know the answer herself. Nangong Han saw that she had made up her mind, so she had to say, "Then you go down and rest first, and then Fang Jian will hand over the task to you." It's just Ah Ying, no matter if you succeed or fail, remember, don't implicate Nangong Mansion! ”
Luo Ying exited the room, went downstairs, walked through the huge corridor, the living room came to the garden, took a deep breath, but was covered by the tall figure of the man in front of her. Seeing that it was Nangong Qingming, the second son of the commander, Luo Ying said angrily, "Why is the second young master blocking my way?" ”
Although Nangong Qingming is the eldest son of Nangong Mansion and has also become a relative, he is very lustful and has long coveted her beauty. It's just that I was afraid of my father's coercion in the past, and I didn't dare to show it too much. Now that he knew that his father was seriously ill, he had no scruples, grabbed her wrist with one hand, and touched her soft waist with the other, and said eagerly, "Ah Ying, don't pretend, my father is old and can't protect you, you might as well follow me, and enjoy this glorious and rich day then!" ”
