There was no light in the house, and it was impossible to tell the time. Gu Qiao didn't know when he fell asleep, but he woke up at dawn the next day as usual.

At this moment, the sound of singing and dancing outside had disappeared. Gu Qiao was stunned for a moment, rubbed his waist and struggled to get up, and lit a candle in the dark.

His movements were very light and did not wake up Dianchen.

The hangover man was lying on the bed, still sleeping soundly, with a thin sheet wrapped around his waist, most of his lean back was exposed, and there were obvious red scratches on it, which was shocking.

"..."

Gu Qiao crouched by the bed and looked at his side face. After an unknown amount of time, she slowly stretched out her hand and smoothed the man's frowning brows.

Time passed so quickly. Last time, the stern and aggressive general hadn't completely covered the gentle gentleman in his memory. This time, the man he met seemed to have changed again, with a little more calm and lazy evil spirit. With a tick, there is not only April Sky in the world in the vortex, it seems that there is also a bloody life and death...

It's just that the man looks more and more tired.

Excruciatingly exhausting.

Gu Qiao suddenly regained consciousness, withdrew his hand, got up and put on his clothes calmly.

"You didn't wake up, so I took it myself."

After finishing speaking in a low voice, Gu Qiao grabbed the banknotes and counted them, his throat felt tight and his eyes shone brightly.

After evaluating his performance last night, he felt very satisfied, so he simply stuffed it all into his arms, and before leaving, he thoughtfully blew out the candles——

Tsk, brush off your clothes when it's over, and hide your body and name deeply.

Only talking about money and not love, this is the basic cultivation of the top card.

Yes, he had left that eccentric circle long ago, and he had no intention of getting involved again. No matter how difficult the outside world was, it was better than living in fear every day.

Even though his life is cheap, Gu Qiao never wants to have a dry bone taken away alive, it hurts too much...

……

After leaving the noble compound, Gu Qiao went straight to the medical center to get the best medicine for the baby.

In fact, the fever has subsided, but when Gu Qiao carried the sleeping baby over from Aunt Shen, he saw that the little face was still flushed red, and the little mouth was slightly pale and dry...

It was actually somewhat similar to Dianchen's mouth.

Gu Qiao was terrified when he saw it, he felt distressed and scared at the same time - to be honest, he was very afraid that he would find Dian Chen's shadow on the baby.

"Mr. Gu, Xing Xing cried all night last night. You are not at home often. It's not a problem to let me stay here all the time."

Aunt Shen grabbed him, chattered for a while, and brought up the topic in a clichéd way: "My niece said that she will really treat Xing Xing, so you can just meet her. She is such a virtuous and virtuous girl, wait for her." I have been with you for more than a year, but after passing this village, there is no such shop, you say you..."

As the aunt spoke, she stopped suddenly and looked at the purple marks on Gu Qiao's neck in shock.

How can a woman who has given birth to three sons not know what it is?In a blink of an eye, she was so angry that she supported the door and shouted to Gu Qiao: "Mr. Gu, Xing Xing is still sick, and you are in the mood to hang out outside? What did you do last night?"

Gu Qiao couldn't say it, but he yelled too hard last night, so he could only say hoarsely: "Ma'am, I happen to be free these few days, and I plan to stay at home with Xing'er, so I won't send them over in the evening. Sorry to trouble you."

Aunt Shen was furious: "Do you still know how to accompany Xingxing?"

When Gu Qiao closed the door of the attic, Aunt Shen was still screaming from behind.

It wasn't until a grandson ran over and hugged her leg that she snorted coldly, picked up the few pounds of lean meat that Gu Qiao had put down, and slammed the door hard.

"boom!"

There was a loud noise in the narrow corridor, which woke the baby up. When those big black eyes saw Gu Qiao, tears welled up in an instant: "Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo..."

"Oh, don't cry, don't cry, Xing'er is good, Daddy is here." Gu Qiao hurriedly hugged the baby back and forth, patting it again and again.

The windows of the attic are facing the street, and beyond that is the vast sea. The morning sea breeze blows through the light mist and passes through the attic, blowing up the few strands of hair hanging from his forehead, covering the few traces of confusion in his eyebrows and eyes ...

"Crash-"

After a while, the tub was filled with freshly boiled hot water.

Gu Qiao originally wanted to put the baby to sleep before taking a bath, but the little guy was afraid that he would not disappear when he closed his eyes, so he refused to sleep again.

Helpless, Gu Qiao had no choice but to put him in the crib, then moved the crib to the side of the tub, and then turned his back and took off his clothes.

He looked down and saw that his skin was covered with countless fine hickey marks and slender fingerprints that had been sucked out, from the clavicle to the thigh, densely packed.Although he was a little drunk, but through every trace, Gu Qiao could recall how the man ravaged him at that time...

"giao~"

The baby let out a sudden exclamation.

Gu Qiao's scalp was numb, and he quickly jumped into the steaming bucket. After thinking about it, he felt uneasy, and quickly spread a towel on the water to cover his embarrassing body tightly...

After bathing, Gu Qiao went to the school with the baby in his arms, first asked the old gentleman for leave, and then went to find the previous house transfer person, and posted a sale notice on the door of the second-floor courtyard.

The transferer knew how much Gu Qiao liked the yard, shook his head suspiciously, and asked, "What a nice house, you haven't moved in yet, why are you suddenly selling it?"

Gu Qiao didn't answer, but just sighed: "Please help me deal with it as soon as possible."

In fact, he wanted to escape here today, but considering that he might not come back in the future, he had to deal with the house first, not to mention how much the baby would spend on medicine and acupuncture in the future. Change to live...

Delusion to secretly settle down in a corner was the stupidest thing he had ever done.

After returning to the attic, Gu Qiao took the baby and began to close the house, not even daring to go to Yimenglou and the teahouse.Now, he only hopes that Dianchen will not recognize anyone when he puts on his pants, and when he wakes up, he will not look for him in Fuyungang.

Please, please, Gu Qiao prayed like this.

And during the period when Gu Qiao kept his ears shut, a major case broke out in Fuyun Port. Everyone knew about it in the streets and alleys, and even the fishermen could hear their voices on the way home after casting their nets. Discussion.

There are all kinds of rumors, and in a handbook submitted to the emperor, it is written like this:

... Wei Guang broke through the bureaucratic channels from Jiangzhou to Fuyungang layer by layer, reselling military rations, setting up tax customs privately, officials accepted bribes, and fabricated military records. With empty military pay.

For three years, the magistrate had a million snowflakes in silver, and his father was usually frugal. If he saw the boxes and cages carried out from the cellar, he would be shocked.

After the investigation by the ministers, Wei Guang and other bureaucratic leaders have been locked up together with the Third Division and the Supervision Institute.

"Send it out."

When the breeze blows, the window screens rise with the wind, making Dianchen's figure look a bit illusory, like a cold and cold fairy.

After the guard took the folder respectfully, the man stood up from behind the big case, with clear eyebrows and pursed mouth, he stretched out his long arms to take the coat, and said, "pass me a sedan chair."

Looking at his tall and straight back, the guard felt his heart skip a beat, and quickly responded, "Yes! The general is going to...?"

Dianchen didn't turn his head back: "Prostitute Chang."

Guard: "..."

The sun has already risen, and the sunlight shines into the prison cell from the high skylight, illuminating the trajectory of dust movement, ups and downs, just like the unbreakable fate of the world.

"boom!"

I don't know how long it took, the gloomy torch was suddenly swept by the air current brought by people walking by, and there was a slight roar, and it returned to calm in a blink of an eye.

In a dark prison cell, a rich businessman was sitting on a pile of straw in prison clothes. He raised his head slightly and looked at the man in a black brocade robe outside the prison door.

After a long time, the wealthy businessman Shi Wang smiled, and said with some emotion: "I thought Wei Guang had met a friend of the same way, but after all, I didn't know Mount Tai. I never expected that the man's surname is Dian..."

Dianchen's gaze was very dull, without any emotion, he just responded casually: "It's normal that you don't know me."

As the saying goes, snakes have snakes, and shrimps have shrimps. No matter how to fill their pockets and search for gold and silver, in the officialdom where corruption is common, most officials have stories and skills.

When they were arrested at the beginning, some people did not plead guilty, and some courageous ones even mobilized private soldiers in an attempt to fight to the death.

However, this kind of confrontation finally collapsed in the face of iron-clad evidence and strong wrists. Wei Guang knew that there was no escape, so he simply said generously: "Even though you and I are not bosom friends, I can see that you are not the one to kill." , don’t involve my parents, I’ll confess everything, and I can still give you the list of people in the south.”

He thought that Dianchen was here to lobby, but unexpectedly the man just raised his eyebrows and said: "You don't need to give it, I know it in my heart."

Wei Guang frowned in doubt: "Then you are here today?"

Dianchen finally smiled, and the pear dimple hung shallowly on his pale face: "After you are released from prison, who will take me whoring?"

"..."

Wei Guang stared at Dianchen, feeling a little dazed for a moment.

The next moment, the man's gaze slowly slid down and landed on Wei Guang's hand, and the smile on Qingjuan's face suddenly dissipated.

Recalling the scene where the pair of pig's hooves were groping down his delicate waist, his eyes were cold, and he gave the jailer next to him a wink...

"boom!"

At noon the next day, a loud noise suddenly came from the main entrance of Yimenglou.

All the sleeping girls were startled awake, and rushed out of the room one after another to look, only to see a man standing with his backlit amidst the floating dust, the dazzling sunlight behind him made it difficult to see his face clearly, only a pair of sharp eyes, slowly Scanned over...

"Ah hug~"

Gu Qiao suddenly woke up from the dream, and when he looked intently, it turned out that the baby was lying on the bed, grabbing his clothes, offering his little buttocks one by one.

"Xing'er, what's wrong?"

"Play, play."

The little guy could only speak a few simple words, but Gu Qiao understood in a flash: This baby is suffocated, dad hugs it, and wants to go out to play...

They stayed behind closed doors for more than half a month, almost isolated from the outside world. Gu Qiao originally wanted to wait, but the baby had run out of medicine, so he had to take it for a follow-up visit anyway, so he had to go cautiously to the hospital.

After coaxing the baby to check the pulse, the old doctor prescribed another course of medicine, all of which were precious medicinal materials, which made the corners of Gu Qiao's eyes twitch.

Although there is still a lot of money stolen from Dianchen, but according to this way of spending...

Thinking of this, Gu Qiao put down all kinds of considerations in his heart, and went to Yimenglou again in the evening - he had to start all over again in a new environment, and he really didn't want to leave Fuyungang unless he had to.

One could faintly hear people discussing the fall of some officials some time ago, but Gu Qiao was not in the mood to listen, just sneaking in the dark, watching Yimenglou from afar.

If Dianchen wanted to find him, Yimenglou must have been turned upside down long ago, right?

However, everything looked as usual.

Gu Qiao breathed a sigh of relief, and went directly to see Sister Hua.The eldest sister was still playing cards as usual, she probably didn't have a good luck today, and her face was tense.

"Xiao Gu, where have you been?"

Sister Hua didn't know where he lived, so after taking a look at him, she slowly shot out a eight-shot: "As soon as it disappears, it will disappear for more than half a month. Do you want to do it?"

Slowly, Gu Qiao opened his mouth, with a hint of rejoicing for the rest of his life.

"What are you doing?" After finishing speaking, he hurriedly walked to Miss Yun's place, feeling that his broken mouth was finally opened for once.

"By the way, I have a long-term job in a few days. Do you want to take it?" Sister Hua's tone was very casual, but she paused when she touched the cards: "Mr. Chen, it's the one I mentioned to you earlier."

Gu Qiao was stunned suddenly, and slowly lowered his head.

The hickey marks on her body have almost dissipated, as if they had never been covered. After a while, Gu Qiao took a deep breath and strode forward: "Go."

Everything was running as usual, and there was no abnormality at all due to anyone's arrival or departure. Gu Qiao returned home after teaching the guqin late at night, and bought a bowl of small wontons for the baby along the way.

The baby slept late recently, and was still very energetic when he was brought back from Mrs. Shen's house. After eating and taking a bath, Gu Qiao put him on the bed, and wiped his soft hair with a towel, only to feel that it was delicious.

Wiping and wiping, Gu Qiao raised his eyebrows, and laughed softly: "Baby, your hair has grown a lot, just like a little girl."

On a whim, he simply took a loop of rope and tied the baby a little.

"Ah, whoop~" The baby held his head in both hands, but couldn't reach it, and shook his head angrily.

Gu Qiao laughed out loud.

At this moment, there was a slight noise from the outside window, which could hardly be noticed by others, but what kind of ear is Gu Qiao?

He felt a little trembling in his heart, and after putting the baby down on the bed, he immediately moved to the window without compromising, took a frying pan, and prepared to teach that ungrateful thief a lesson——

"Crench!"

The window was suddenly opened by Gu Qiao.

Looking at each other, Dianchen was slightly startled, and frowned in a blink of an eye, stretched out a hand to Gu Qiao, and said naturally: "Give me a hand, your window is not easy to climb..."

With a sound of "Duang~", Gu Qiao slapped the man down.

The night was thick, and after hearing the dull sound of a heavy object falling to the ground from below, Gu Qiao closed the window calmly, turned around and sat down on the stool, and picked up the pot to have a look...

Oh, flat.

Gu Qiao sat for a while, his expression seemed very calm, but one leg was shaking restlessly, and his heel tapped the ground quickly: "Da da da..."

After a while, he suddenly came to his senses, got up and spread the burden cloth that Lu Yao gave him, and quickly started to pack clothes, broken silver, bank notes, babies...

Oh no, just hold the baby.

Gu Qiao hurriedly put the dazed baby back on the bed, ran to the table in three steps at a time, and tied the cloth into a knot——

"Bang" with a loud noise.

The attic door was kicked open.

Dian Chen walked in, covering his bleeding forehead, with a serious face, as if even the corners of his mouth were calm, the light fell on his handsome profile, and carved a stern profile line.

"Gu Qiao, do you need me to order a coffin for you?"

The man's tone was still so calm, but Gu Qiao suddenly shuddered.

After a while, Gu Qiao finally showed a smirk with eight teeth, and said embarrassingly: "I don't need the coffin, it's because of the expense... Well, just pay for the pot..."
