bright moon goes west
Chapter 244 The first gift
"Miss Tan, we have already arranged the hotel where you will stay. I will ask the secretary to take you there in a while."
The undercurrent between Gaoling Tan Sally and Chen Xi was surging, and in order to avoid complications, she forcefully intervened between the two of them.
The atmosphere stagnated.
Tan Sally felt a sour feeling in her heart.She did not expect that Gao Ling would defend Cui Heng'e, the young marshal's wife, in this way.You must know that back then, this person could only use himself.
What Tan Sally didn't know was that Gao Ling's reaction was purely a subconscious emergency response from being tortured by Heng'e.
"Don't bother Director Gao, just point out any subordinate to take me there."
The last time Tan Sally came to Beijing was to ask Chen Xi to get back together. She only stayed in the capital for a few days before Cui Heng'e sent her back to the southwest with a few words.Therefore, Tan Sally is not very familiar with the capital.
"Miss Tan, the visitor is a guest. As hosts, how can we be so rude." Gao Ling said to a middle-aged man who was beside him: "Old Li, escort Miss Tan to the hotel."
"Thank you very much." Tan Sally didn't refuse anymore, she nodded, and finally she could look at Chen Xi openly: "Young commander, take your leave."
"Miss Tan, go slowly." Chen Xi's tone was alienated and indifferent.
Tan Shali smiled wryly in her heart. She had not given up, so she had one out of ten thousand expectations.
She turned around, walking this time without the slightest nostalgia, even the back view of getting into the car showed a trace of determination.
However, when the car drove far away from the pier of Bailuzhou, Tan Shali still looked back through the rear window.
The tall and tall man stood in the bleak cold wind, with only a thin shirt on his body, and the vast and boundless night sky behind him.
The torches on both sides of the river bank illuminated the man's resolute face, flying, sharp sword eyebrows, bottomless dark eyes, straight nose bridge, tight thin lips, and resolute jaw...
Although the facial features of the man could not be seen clearly in the night, Tan Shali had already described the man's face countless times in her heart.
He was not the prettiest, nor was he tender and affectionate.Compared with those aristocratic princes who "riding on a leaning bridge and full of red sleeves", he is arrogant, serious and indifferent, machismo and incomprehensible, and never treats women as nothing.
However, Tan Shali still let her heart sink.Probably, this is why the love doesn't know where it started, and it goes deeper and deeper.
Suddenly, Tan Sally's eyes widened, and she ordered the driver with a sweet voice that was almost shrill: "Slow down!"
The driver slowed down in response.
Jiang Tao patted the shore, and the ship docked at the pier. From the landing deck, a woman dressed as a maid slowly helped down a Miaoli figure.
Although the woman was completely wrapped in a man's overcoat, she was still slim and graceful, like a fairy wading through the water.
As for the woman's face, although the facial features cannot be seen clearly in the night, under the cover of the torch, the woman's fair and delicate skin seems to be shining, and those bright eyes that seem to be decorated with stars shine brightly in the dense night !
It's Cui Heng'e!definitely is!
Tan Sally's fingers clenched instantly.
Chen Xi, who was standing far away on the shore, suddenly moved.
Almost the moment Cui Heng'e stepped onto the deck, Chen Xi strode toward Cui Heng'e in stride.
The sparks are colorful, and among the shadows, a tall, majestic, masculine and handsome man embraces a petite, slender woman, and time seems to stand still.It seemed that even the cold wind and moonlight softened at that moment.
Tan Sally bit her lip hard.
It turned out that this was the reason why he only wore a shirt in the cold weather.
He can stand in the cold wind and use his own body temperature to warm another woman, but he is not even willing to give himself a warm look.
Tears flooded into Tan Sally's eyes instantly.
During this year, she even forgot how to cry.But when Chen Xi showed his tenderness to another woman without hesitation, Tan Sally felt like a knife was piercing her heart!
How unfair this world is, she offered her sincerity, but Chen Xi treated it as nothing, and in front of another woman, he could bend his pride.
Tan Sally bit the back of her hand, and tears splashed on the back of her hand, mixed with the bloodstains from her bite, full of bitterness.
"Didn't you leave first? Why are you still here?" As soon as Heng'e stepped out of the cabin, Chen Xi, who rushed over quickly, hugged her tightly and carried her to the river bank.
"Isn't this afraid of your overthinking?" There was a slight warmth on Chen Xi's cold face, and he couldn't believe that the little girl couldn't hear such a big commotion outside.
This is pretending to be confused with yourself!
"Suspicious?" Heng'e arched her black eyebrows, her pair of watery eyes reflected the glowing torches, as if the clear lake water reflected the glow of the sky.
"What happened? Am I paranoid?"
Heng'e's eyebrows and eyes were curved, her cold face was dyed with a light rosy color, her bright eyes looking at Chen Xi were shimmering, narrowed charmingly like cat's eyes, full of wit and cunning.
Chen Xi raised her hand, pinched the tip of Heng'e's small nose, and jokingly said: "Little girl, you have more eyes than lotus roots, get in the car!"
Heng'e's eyes turned around on the pier, and after seeing Jiang Maonong, her pupils shrank rapidly.
It seems that there will be a lot of fun to watch tonight.
Heng'e's eyeballs moved slightly, and she changed the topic with a smile: "In such a hurry to drive me away? Could it be because of a guilty conscience?"
"Guilty?" Chen Xi raised his eyebrows, and said with a half-smile, "Why should I be guilty? Just because I only said a few words the whole time?"
This sentence is quite self-inflicted.
Heng'e raised her sleeve to cover the smirk on her lips.She didn't say who Chen Xi met just now.
Although, Heng'e had already seen everything from the small window of the cabin.
She raised her eyebrows, her face like spring flowers looked like she was about to smile, and she said softly: "It's such a happy event for the old man to reunite. Is it because I'm here that it's inconvenient for you to just say a few words? "
In terms of bickering, Chen Xi would never be Heng'e's opponent.
As the saying goes, one force can reduce ten meetings.Chen Xi pursed her thin lips, and in front of the crowd, picked him up by the waist and stuffed him into the car of the Young Marshal's Mansion.
Chen Xi closed the car door and directed to the driver in the driver's seat, "Drive."
"Hey!" Heng'e slammed on the car window unwillingly, almost stunned and shouted, "How dare you play tricks."
Chen Xi's thick eyebrows and eyes were filled with a deep smile, acquiescing to his wife's questioning of him.He raised his eyes and watched the car go further and further until it became a small black spot in his vision.
Only then did Chen Xi turn back and walk towards his car, Jiang Maonong took the initiative to get into the co-pilot.
Gao Ling went to a jeep behind escorting Zhong Wei.
A long convoy of trains drove away from the pier of Bailuzhou in mighty form, and the black pressure was like billowing dark clouds.
Zhong Wei's eyes were covered with a black cloth, surrounded by Gao Ling's disgusting aura.
He hooked his thin lips.
Every road in the capital, including the suburbs, was extremely familiar.Even if Gao Ling was blindfolded, he could still accurately judge the direction of the car.
When the car reached the birch forest in the suburbs, it slowly diverged from the vehicle in front.
The driver looked at the back seat from the rearview mirror, and after meeting Gao Ling's eyes, he saw him slightly lift his jaw.
The driver got the order, slowly reduced the speed, and spun along the periphery of the birch forest. The wheels rolled over the falling yellow leaves, making a light, crispy sound.
Zhong Wei moved his ears, and the corners of his lips showed a trace of sarcasm: "Director Gao, why do you have to play this trick, even if you let the driver go around the forest ten or eight times, I will know where your destination is. "
Gao Ling's pupils shrank slightly, and he pinched the knuckles of his fingers lightly. He said with a light smile, "Of course I dare not underestimate Minister Zhong's ability. Don't worry, our young commander has already said that there is a big gift, and this gift will arrive soon. .”
Zhong Wei snorted lightly, and his bruised and purple face showed a noncommittal expression.
A few minutes later, the driver hit the brakes.
The car stopped in front of a residential building.
Gao Ling asked Zhong Wei to push down the car.
The wooden door of the small courtyard was opened, and Gao Ling led someone to push the door and enter.
The black cloth over Zhong Wei's eyes was taken off, looking at this extremely quiet courtyard, a flash of thought flashed in Zhong Wei's eyes.Even he couldn't guess what Gao Ling had prepared inside.
"Minister Zhong, don't you want to go in and take a look?" Gao Ling raised the corners of his lips, a pair of charming peach eyes were stained with a hint of coldness.
Zhong Wei looked calm and was pushed into the room.
"Uncle Zhong!" A cute girl from Yuxue rushed over and hugged Zhong Wei's legs.
The blood in Zhong Wei's body was cold, and his suspicious eyes fell on an old couple in the room whose hands and feet were bound and their mouths were gagged. His thin lips moved, and he forced out a difficult smile: "Cancan, Why are you here?"
"Uncle Zhong, the uncle who brought me said that Uncle Zhong will take me to find my parents, is it true?"
The kerosene lamp in the room was dimly lit, and the little girl didn't notice the bruise on Zhong Wei's face.
The innocent little girl raised her little head, her immature face looked hopefully at Zhong Wei.
"Uncle Zhong, when will I see my father and mother?"
The girl's sweet and immature voice came to his ear, Zhong Wei blinked his eyes, his eyes drooped slightly, and after meeting the little girl's eyes that were so pure that there was no trace of filth, Zhong Wei looked away almost in embarrassment.
She will never see her parents again.
Zhong Wei suppressed the bitterness in his throat, turned his head suddenly, and after meeting Gao Ling's gaze, his cold, fierce eyes shot out countless knives.
"Despicable!" Zhong Wei squeezed out these two words soundlessly from between his teeth.
Gao Ling lifted his thin lips, and also silently responded to Zhong Wei's four words: "To each other." With a long leg, he stepped across the threshold of the house and walked in.
The old couple who were tied together had already recognized Gao Ling, and there was great panic in their eyes. The man was still calm, but the old woman made a "woo-woo" sound from her throat, and kept struggling on the chair. His eyes were full of tears and begging...
Gao Ling did not soften his heart in the slightest.
He walked up to the little girl and knelt down.
The girl shrank and hid behind Zhong Wei.
The seven-year-old realized something was wrong, and cried out, "Uncle Zhong, why, why are your hands tied..."
But the scarier thing was still behind, the girl saw the gun that was behind Zhong Wei.Things she had seen in the drawers of her parents' study.
The girl's innocent face was full of horror, she screamed "ah", the sharp child's voice cut through the silence of the night, and it was especially shrill in everyone's ears.
"It's a bit noisy!" Gao Ling calmly picked out his ears with his hands, his eyes fell on the crying girl, he raised his eyebrows, his clear and melodious voice sounded like a devil from hell.
"Cancan, your name is Cancan, right? Do you want to meet your parents?"
There was a touch of gentleness and patience in Gao Ling's tone, but those twinkling peach blossom eyes were full of malice.
The little girl who was hiccupping from crying stopped crying immediately, with big eyes still filled with tears, she looked at Gao Ling blankly, and said timidly, "Uncle, do you know my parents too?"
"Gao Ling!" Zhong Wei's chest felt like a fire was burning, he suddenly raised his voice, his scarlet eyes stared at Gao Ling like a poisonous snake, wishing he could be skinned and boned!
The undercurrent between Gaoling Tan Sally and Chen Xi was surging, and in order to avoid complications, she forcefully intervened between the two of them.
The atmosphere stagnated.
Tan Sally felt a sour feeling in her heart.She did not expect that Gao Ling would defend Cui Heng'e, the young marshal's wife, in this way.You must know that back then, this person could only use himself.
