Autumn water is long

Lu Ting was awakened by the cries of unknown gulls on the river. The moment he regained consciousness, he felt severe pain in every part of his body, especially the right ankle.

The curtains in the bedroom were still drawn, and there was no light in the room.

His back was sore and his elbows were weak, and he tried to support himself on the bed with his hands.After working hard for a long time, he finally managed to raise his upper body. When he touched his ankle, he felt a lump the size of a billiard ball.

"Qiu..." As soon as he opened his mouth, his hoarseness was too much.

With a beep, the curtains automatically opened.

Lu Ting eased the discomfort in his eyes, and saw Qiu Yibei sitting on the edge of the bed, matching his swollen right ankle was Qiu Yibei's left wrist that had been bent as if it had been severed.

"Your hand..." Although the voice was as unbearable as the friction of gravel, Lu Ting struggled to speak.

Qiu Yibei shook her head, walked to the window and opened it, letting out the smell of ashes and wine that had blended overnight.Then he sat next to Lu Ting, frowned and looked at Lu Ting's ankle, "I'll call the doctor..."

As soon as Qiu Yibei spoke, both of them froze.

The voices of the two of them became hoarse than the other.

After a while, the two looked at their respective "injured" parts, wanted to speak but only opened their mouths, and finally looked at each other for a few seconds, and finally couldn't help covering their faces and laughing for a long time.

Lu Ting tried his best to speak: "Perhaps because two alphas cannot be permanently marked, we always have to leave painful marks on each other."

After hearing this, Qiu Yibei raised her good right hand and stroked the glands on the back of Lu Ting's neck.

Feeling a slight tingling pain, Lu Ting's eyelashes trembled slightly, but there was a smile on the corner of his mouth.

Last night, the two of them seemed to be fighting against the ancient iron law that alpha cannot be permanently marked.

Stay up all night, tag each other countless times.

In the end, the backs of his and Qiu Yibei's necks were bloody and bloody, pheromones overflowed from the repeatedly ruptured wounds, and the corners of their mouths were stained with each other's pheromones, licking the blood from the most vulnerable parts of each other.

"We - don't need a mark." Qiu Yibei said.

Qiu Yibei, who was still serious a second ago, suddenly raised her face after speaking, showing a different pride from before, and said, "We have a certificate."

Lu Ting was slightly stunned, seeing Qiu Yibei showing a youthful look that didn't match her age at this time, she burst into a "puchi" laugh.

He couldn't help recalling that in the lavender field, when he "proposed" to Qiu Yibei, Qiu Yibei exuded that breath that made people want to get closer.

It's a bit similar to this time, maybe the Qiu Yibei before today was like Lu Ting, with a thick shell, but it couldn't stop the real self in her heart from running out from time to time to find a sense of existence.

"The law does not allow us to separate." Qiu Yibei said suddenly.

Hoarse, low, but undeniable.

Lu Ting's heart trembled, and he raised his hand, hooking his little finger with Qiu Yibei's finger that was wandering carelessly on his face.

The two looked at each other silently for a long time, Qiu Yibei couldn't help but leaned forward, but encountered a "deformed" wrist that she couldn't see.Lu Ting also forgot that he was also an injured person, and when he raised his right foot unconsciously, he was hit violently in pain.

They stopped their movements at the same time.

Qiu Yibei took out her mobile phone and tapped it with one hand.

Lu Ting saw Qiu Yibei sending a message to Liang Shaoze, asking him to call a car to take them to the hospital.

As soon as the news was sent out, Qiu Yibei immediately received an urgent call from Liang Shaoze.

"What's wrong! What happened to you and Lu Ting! Why didn't you call? Why are you both going to the hospital! Did the Ning family take revenge on you? Did Ning Xinghe come to trouble you?"

A string of cannonballs bombarded Qiu Yibei, and Qiu Yibei didn't know whether to be grateful for the brotherhood that was stronger than Jin Jian, or to help Liang Shaoze's impetuous temper.

Qiu Yibei cleared her throat, trying to make her voice less scary.

"Lu Ting and I are in the new house, nothing serious."

The other side was silent for a long time, so long that Lu Ting could not help but say: "Young Master Liang, I am Lu Ting. We are not in danger of life, but Qiu Yibei's wrist is seriously injured and needs to be treated as soon as possible."

There was still no movement on the opposite side, Qiu Yibei looked at the mobile phone signal suspiciously.

As soon as the phone was out of the ear, I heard a horrified tone from the other side - "Damn! What did you two do last night... It was terrorists crossing the border, you fought with them - are you up?"

Qiu Yibei: "..."

Lu Ting: "..."

more or less.

-

One with a plaster hanging around his neck, the other covered with gauze and crutches, sitting side by side on a hospital bed in the observation room of the hospital, looking up at the person with low air pressure in his eyes full of guilt and embarrassment, like two elementary school students who have made mistakes and are waiting for criticism look.

Holding two medical records in his hands, Liang Shaoze leaned against the wall with folded arms, looking down at the two of them.

After a while, it should be that the two newlyweds really hated iron and steel, used the medical records as a fan, and went out to pay the medical bills while fanning the wind.

Seeing Liang Shaoze leave, Lu Ting and Qiu Yibei glanced at each other, immediately heaved a sigh of relief, and fell back.

"Don't tell me, I'm a little afraid of him." Qiu Yibei said with a smile.

Lu Ting also laughed and said, "If he heard your words, he would probably say: 'I am afraid of your two ancestors!'"

Qiu Yibei laughed out loud, "You are beginning to understand him now."

The two people who were so hoarse no longer laughed wantonly against their bodies, the relaxed atmosphere gradually faded, and they couldn't help but think of Ning Xinghe, who is now missing.

Qiu Yibei said: "Lu Ting, have you ever thought that the purpose of the person behind Ning Xinghe was not Nanfei Real Estate in the first place. What he really wants to bring down is the Ning family."

Lu Ting frowned: "What you said is not impossible, but besides the Lu family, who else would be afraid of the Ning family? Lu Zhengting would not turn a corner and do such a thing that can easily guess that the person behind the scenes is him. .”

Qiu Yibei groaned, what Lu Ting said was indeed reasonable.

The phone rang suddenly, and Qiu Yibei's right hand was inconvenient, Lu Ting took out the phone from Qiu Yibei's right pocket, and saw that the name on it was Wen Xin.

Instead of handing the phone to Qiu Yibei, he raised his eyebrows and said, "Hands-free."

"Free, free, free."

Qiu Yibei knew that Lu Ting was the "kidnapping" of revenge, and he ordered Lu Ting to use the hands-free in the car, so he resignedly spit out a series of "free".

Wen Xin: "Mr. Qiu, how are you and Mr. Lu thinking?"

Qiu Yibei: "Before Mr. Wen came to Pingyu City, did he conduct a basic survey on the distribution of enterprises involved in the real estate industry in Pingyu City?"

As soon as these words came out, even Lu Ting was stunned. He never cared about the location of the company.

Wen Xin on the other end of the phone didn't reply for a long time.

Qiu Yibei seemed to have anticipated Wen Xin's reaction, and continued without waiting for Wen Xin's answer:

"There is a famous long street in Pingyu City called Wutong Avenue. Wutong Avenue crosses the Yanjiang River, and Yanjiang River divides Pingyu City into two districts with diametrically opposite levels of economic development. The Lu Group and the Ning Family are entrenched in the In the northern district, the Liang family monopolizes the southern district. Now that the Ning family has suffered a complete defeat, the Lu family will soon have the same status as the Liang family in the northern district."

Analyzing the current situation of the real estate industry in Pingyu City from this angle was something Lu Ting had never considered, so that he was fascinated for a while.

Qiu Yibei smiled and stretched out her hand, lifted Lu Ting's unconsciously dropped arm, and used her only "sound" right hand to support Lu Ting, lest Lu Ting's hands get sore from holding the phone for too long.

Lu Ting came back to his senses.

Qiu Yibei looked at Lu Ting, not only talking to Wen Xin, but also to Lu Ting: "So Lu Ting and I decided to cooperate and form a duopoly in the north of Pingyu City. In the future, we will reach an agreement and tacit understanding with each other. With the same price, the same contract amount, etc. - carve up the market in the North District of Pingyu City."

When Qiu Yibei said the words "duopoly", Lu Ting's eyes gradually brightened.

This is a win-win and extremely risky decision. On the premise of seeking success while maintaining stability, we will expand the future into infinite possibilities.

After Qiu Yibei's voice fell, Lu Ting immediately thought of countless exciting and crazy "tactics".

"I agree." Lu Ting slowly smiled.

Wen Xin was stunned on the other end of the phone.

Qiu Yibei's plan took Wen Xin a long time to digest, so long that she didn't have time to wonder why the voices of the two were so hoarse that they didn't look like their own.

Wen Xin was silent for a long time, then smiled softly and said, "You two, one is slanting your sword, the other is steady and steady. You really are—" a natural match.

Before Wenxin could say the following words, Qiu Yibei hung up the phone because they heard Liang Shaoze's footsteps.

It's not to guard against Liang Shaoze, the main reason is that Nanfei Real Estate and the Lu Group are now in an alliance, and they want to be on an equal footing with the Liang family, so the members of the Liang family always have to avoid suspicion.

Lu Ting understood Qiu Yibei's meaning, he put the phone screen close to him, and sent a message to Wen Xin with Qiu Yibei's name to apologize: I'm sorry, senior sister, I had to hang up your phone due to an emergency, and we will contact you another day.

"I went through the formalities and paid the medical bills for you before and after the run, and you are still lying down?! I can't go home if I want to kiss you, look at your two arms and legs, do you want to fold another one!"

Qiu Yibei and Lu Ting cleared their throats in embarrassment and supported each other to sit upright, their eyes wandering, and they unanimously arranged their not-so-wrinkled clothes.

Liang Shaoze frowned, looking at the two who are usually smarter than monkeys, but at this time they are as naive as children making mistakes, it took a long time before he sighed.

He pushed a wheelchair in from the door, and said to Qiu Yibei angrily, "You! Carry him up! The doctor said that he was afraid that there might be a bone fracture, so he wanted to take another film."

Qiu Yibei "cough coughed" and was about to touch Lu Ting, but Lu Ting dodged him.

Lu Ting jumped onto the wheelchair with one leg by himself, except that the wheel of the wheelchair slipped because he was not sitting firmly, and Liang Shaoze helped to help him, and he placed himself on the wheelchair properly.

Then Liang Shaoze called a nurse in to push Lu Ting.

Qiu Yibei also stood up and followed Lu Ting's wheelchair out the door.

Before he could leave the door of the observation room, Liang Shaoze suddenly patted him on the shoulder.

Looking back, it was Liang Shaoze's serious appearance that he had never shown before.

"That..." Liang Shaoze hesitated, "Although I shouldn't ask about your personal affairs before we met, but tell me exactly, you and the Lu family...have you had some grievances in the past?"

Qiu Yibei was stunned for a moment, thinking that she had indeed not concealed many of her behaviors in front of Liang Shaoze recently.

"I didn't want to hide it from you, but it's enough for Lu Ting and me to be affected by the grievances of the previous generation. You are my best and only friend. I don't want you to get involved." He said sincerely.

Hearing what Qiu Yibei said, Liang Shaoze let out a "tsk".

"Although I'm usually foolish, young master, and I can have feelings or not, but you are my brother. I still want to persuade you and tell you something from the bottom of my heart. I can see that you are right Lu Ting really cares about it. In this case, we can let go of those grudges. I don't mean to ask you to forgive the Lu family, Lu Zhengting. After all, I don't know what he did to you. After you get out of prison, you will come to Pingyu City to take revenge against all kinds of difficulties, but we must always look forward, right, the future is yours and Lu Ting's."

At this moment, Liang Shaoze, who is earnest and earnest, is "grinding and chattering", just like the elders urging young people to cherish their present life.

"Don't worry, I can tell the difference between the Lu family and Lu Ting. What's more - Lu Ting and I may not have the same goals."

Although Liang Shaoze didn't understand what Qiu Yibei meant by "the same goal", he still nodded and took out a large volume of documents and a bunch of keys from his pocket.

"Okay, as long as you know what's in your mind. Here, the nursing home, I took it down for you, and this."

Liang Shaoze handed Qiu Yibei a photo: "This is the nursing worker who took care of Lu Ting back then. She retired very early. Later, the nursing home saw that she was very old and pitiful, so they asked her to go back to manage the file room and wipe the table every day. chair, lay out the papers. If you want to know, she may be able to tell you."

Qiu Yibei: "Pick a day."

Liang Shaoze: "What are you doing?"

"Please drink."

"Pull it down, you and Lu Ting are lame and disabled, take care of yourselves first and then talk."

Qiu Yibei was clutching the purchase documents and keys, but couldn't open the mouth when the words came to her lips.

Liang Shaoze could tell at a glance that Qiu Yibei wanted to say thank you. He hated being so pretentious between brothers, so he hurriedly pushed Qiu Yibei's back to drive him away, "Hurry up and find your family, Lu Ting, you two will never be together again." It is the greatest gratitude to me to hurt myself! I kowtow to you two!"

Qiu Yibei pursed her lips and nodded heavily, patted Liang Shaoze on the shoulder, without saying a word, turned around and ran in the direction where Lu Ting left.

Liang Shaoze shook his head and looked at Qiu Yibei's getting smaller and smaller back, and said with emotion: "It's really costing your life to fall in love—it's even more costing your brother's life!"

As soon as the words fell, Liang Shaoze angrily kicked the corner of the wall.

As a result, he didn't find the right angle, and just hit his big toe, and he fell to the ground with a "ow".

In his wailing pain, the argument of "Brother Fei's life" was verified.
