, The driver is enthusiastic and quick-hearted. He is a man who can talk. From the war in North China to the young romantic, the market is like a storyteller in a teahouse. Cheng Lan thought it was very interesting, and the rude words were very new to her.
The iron car drove for an hour. At the fork, the driver turned to the right. This was not in line with the route that Li Langyu had checked beforehand, so he asked why.
"There is a factory on the road on the left. Yesterday, there was a sudden explosion, and the oil tank was completely collapsed. The fire was quite big. It has not been cleaned up yet. Although it is a long way to the right, it is safe."
Li Langyu looked around and saw that there was no vehicle on the left.
Arriving at Qing'an Garden at 1 o'clock in the afternoon, Li Langyu got a bicycle out of nowhere and carried Cheng Lan around for two laps. Finally, they sat together on the ground paved with ginkgo leaves and talked about the past.
"Do you still remember what Fourth Master was like ten years ago?" Li Langyu folded off a piece of grass beside him and put it in his mouth at will.
"I had a serious illness at that time, and the first person I saw when I woke up was him. His face seemed to be much more deserted than it is now, but it didn't change much."
"Then what do you think of him?"
"Of course it's very good." Cheng Lan added, "Although my father is strict with his opponents, he is very affectionate and righteous, and he has never treated others badly."
Seriousness? Li Langyu sneered. "Did he mention what he did before joining the army?"
Cheng Lan plucked a leaf off his head and said, "Are you a rap show? I was surprised when I first heard this. I remembered that he sang in front of me a few times, but I can't remember why. In "Lin Chong Night Run", everyone said that my father used to be with a class leader surnamed Fu, but unfortunately that Master Fu went astray and became a traitor to the Japanese army in the face of national disaster, and the entire troupe is gone."
Li Langyu stared at her suddenly, silent for a while, making Cheng Lan's heart tremble.
"You... why do you look at me like that?"
"It's nothing. It can be seen that the fourth master is really good to you." He threw such a vague sentence and took Cheng Lan back to the car.
On the way, Li Langyu handed her a glass of water to quench her thirst. It didn't take long for Cheng Lan to drink, and then she fell asleep. She tried to hold on for a while, but she couldn't stand it. Finally, she fell asleep leaning on Li Langyu's shoulder. Li Langyu called out a few times with concern, but didn't answer.
It was also at this time that he abruptly removed his gentle face, turned his head and said coldly to the driver, "Master, turn left at the next intersection and go to the Chang'an Hotel."
That night, Tianjin.
Cheng Hanliang had just left the banquet, and several generals had a discussion on the war in the north. Commander Qiao had something to say, every sentence hiding a knife, all of which were temptations. At the end of the day, the restaurant manager just delivered a few boxes of sweets. Cheng Hanliang didn't like sweets, and Cheng Lan didn't like it either.
On the way back to Peiping, Butler Zhang was driving, and it was estimated that he would not be able to get home until two o'clock in the morning. During the process, General closed his eyes and rested, and his expression was solemn. This time, when he came to Tianjin, Commander Qiao secretly gave him a warning, and his words and deeds were all accepted by that person. in the eyes.
Butler Zhang also understood it, and after deliberation, he still said what was in his heart: "Fourth Master, do you remember Mrs. Xu who I kept staring at last time?"
"Xu Guiying, what happened to her?"
"I found out a very strange thing, which is related to Young Master Li."
"Speak." Cheng Hanliang couldn't stand the way he wanted to talk and betray.
"The people we dispatched found that Xu Guiying often stayed near the police station, and every time he asked someone to bring things in, and later asked someone to ask, and learned that she wanted to send things to a local ruffian named Li Sheng, and Li Sheng is said to have It's her son again. It's strange, isn't her son Li Langyu, and she didn't listen to Young Master Li that he has any brothers." Butler Zhang was puzzled, "Fourth Master, what do you think is going on?"
Cheng Hanliang let out an inaudible sneer, he raised his eyelids lazily, a street light rubbed into his eyes, and his voice was a little dull: "What else, the fox's tail is exposed."
"Then... do you want to arrest it?" Butler Zhang was suspicious. He was a little confused about Cheng Hanliang's thoughts now. Logically, he should have been furious and furious, but he didn't.
After the winter, the wind blew loudly with the speed of the car, and the night was sparsely thrown into the car, as if it had hit the frost, and a layer of coldness floated on the body. After waiting for a long time, he finally entered the city of Beiping. Butler Zhang heard the man who had not said a word for a long time: "I'm just curious, who sent him?"
Chapter Eighteen
In the middle of the night, when the car opened to the gate of the mansion, butler Zhang saw that the house was still brightly lit, he couldn't help but wonder, "Why don't these people turn off the lights at night?" Cheng Hanliang frowned and urged to get out of the car.
He walked wide into the room and stood in the center of the hall. Butler Zhang raised his voice, and all the servants rushed to him, all with ugly faces, like a row of moldy eggplants.
"What's the matter?" He narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at everyone.
The servants looked at each other in dismay, not daring to be the first bird, their heads would like to dig into the floor tiles, and the appearance of grinding and chirping was unbearable. Cheng Hanliang suddenly turned his head and stared at a girl in Cheng Lan's room, "Come out!" he shouted sharply.
The little girl was almost frightened by this sound, she moved a few steps forward with trembling two soft legs, her facial features were wrinkled, and she had to cry in the next second.
"I... I don't know, miss, I can't find it."
Cheng Hanliang was startled in his heart, his eyes were furious, and a stern look flashed in his pupils, "Speak clearly!"
"The uncle said to take the young lady out to play, but the two of them haven't come back yet."
"Where did you go!"
"I don't know, we searched for a long time and couldn't find it..."
Butler Zhang could clearly see Cheng Hanliang's expression on the side, this was definitely furious, or a ruthless appearance he hadn't seen in several years. Just now he was still discussing the uncle whose identity was a mystery, and now it's out here. This kind of thing, he couldn't help but feel nervous, and shouted at the people who were standing.
Cheng Hanliang sank his face, his expression was indifferent, making people dare not pay attention, he suddenly said: "Call out Xiaoye to me."
Xiaoye blinked sleepily, and was escorted into the hall. When he saw Cheng Hanliang, who had a bad face, he stood as straight as a telephone pole.
"Where did Li Langyu go?"
"Ah? I don't know." He touched his head, looked left and then looked at Cheng Hanliang again, and found that the other party was glaring at him, as if he was going to be shot. Xiao Ye shuddered, and his head quickly regained clarity, "I, I remembered, my uncle has a letter for you."
He ran back to the house in three steps and two steps, and brought the letter that Li Langyu had given him. Cheng Hanliang snatched it away, ruthlessly tore the seal, and a wedding ring rolled out and circled the ground three times. , the edges are bright and dazzling.
Cheng Hanliang opened the letter, and a splash of ink quickly condensed in his eyes. The content of the letter was very concise, but a time and a place were clearly prepared. He lowered his eyelids, sneered softly, crumpled the letter into a ball, and stepped towards the study.
When the door closed, everyone was shocked.
Butler Zhang waited all night, and was not called in until seven in the morning. Cheng Hanliang sat behind the desk with a map spread out on the desk, and the whole person crouched in the dilapidated light.
"Send two groups of people, one group will check the hotels and restaurants near Jin Teahouse, and the other group will guard all the exits of Lijing Station, especially the South Station."
Butler Zhang nodded in response, and when he inadvertently looked up, he found bloodshot eyes in Cheng Hanliang's eyes. Alas, this young master Li can only ask for more happiness.
"One more thing." Cheng Hanliang paused, "Go to Shanghai quickly and check the wealthy businessman I told you last time."
To get to the bottom of it, he wanted to see who raised this little wolf cub.
After the explanation, Butler Zhang carefully left the room. Just as he walked to the door, he suddenly found the box of pastries in Tianjin lying in the trash can. The outer packaging was a popular actress. Now he was ravaged miserably. As you can imagine. He was stunned for a second, and then suddenly understood in his heart, and went downstairs slowly.
What else could be the reason.
Even though I have a heart to cherish jade, you are devoted to death.
That little wolf cub is also quite capable.
Soon after receiving the order to go out together, Xiaoye was still in a half-daze, so he asked Steward Zhang, who was about to go to Shanghai: "What's wrong with my uncle?"
Butler Zhang got into the car, gave him a meaningful look, poked his head, and said with a half-smile, "Little Leaf, you can have some snacks. What's your name at this time, uncle."
Li Langyu settled Cheng Lan in the Chang'an Hotel's guest room. She slept peacefully. Yesterday's glass of water was mixed with some sleeping pills, and he fed it again halfway through the afternoon. It was nine o'clock now, and he was about to leave. He packed his luggage and turned to look at Cheng Lan on the bed. After a little thought, he tucked the quilt for her, then took off the scarf around his neck and put it beside the pillow. Light gray knitted wool, very warm, he really liked it, but he couldn't take it away.
Lai Jin Teahouse was where Li Langyu and Cheng Hanliang agreed to meet, and he chose a compromise point between the hotel and the station in order to leave quickly. This teahouse is well-known in Peiping. It has two floors. Li Langyu chose a booth on the second floor and ordered dim sum and tea.
This location has a good look and feel, and it happens to be able to have a panoramic view of the situation below. Lajin Teahouse is famous for its elegance. In the center of the first floor, there is a small table, a wooden chair, a red table, a beautiful woman plucking the strings, and a pipa. The voice is crisp and crisp, and it sings "Reminiscence of Childhood" by Mr. Li Shutong.
Li Langyu gently twitched his little finger and tapped the yellow wood table top along with the rhythm, the sound of "da da" was slow and orderly, sticking to the melodious tune floating in the air, he looked happy and relaxed,
