Talking casually with the transportation line in country A, Luo Yu has successfully made several transactions in the past two months, and Ruan Zheng and his Zhenting have not moved.
Luo Yu asked about Xing Licheng one day, and Xing Licheng started to investigate, and this investigation actually found something.
Ruan Zheng appeared in Laos three months ago. There was an informant from the Ping City police. He took a picture of Ruan Zheng's back. Ruan Zheng's hair was dyed silver and his body was blocked by the back of the chair.
This photo was transmitted layer by layer before it reached the police in Pingshi, and it lay on Luo Yu's desk the next day.
Luo Yu had a quarrel with Su Jiawen late last night. At this moment, he still has the inexplicable energy of Su Jiawen on the bed, and his heart is always itchy. He brought it back home, otherwise, according to Su Jiawen's pure and soft temperament, he would stay in the place where he eats people and does not spit out bones, or he would have entered the morgue early.
Seeing the photo on the table, and listening to Xing Licheng's brief description of the origin of the photo, Luo Yu picked up the photo and looked at it carefully, and asked Xing Licheng, "How are you sure it is Ruan Zheng?"
"This man," Xing Licheng pointed to the man standing beside the white-haired man, "Jiang Qi of Zhenting, the police informant heard Jiang Qi call him A Zheng."
"No front?" Luo Yu frowned, what could be seen from a back.
Xing Licheng shook his head: "The informant said that if he hadn't been less wary abroad, Jiang Qi called Ruan Zheng's name. He never thought that this person was Ruan Zheng, and he didn't pay attention to what he looked like at first. As soon as he had time to take a candid photo of his back, he was invited out."
Luo Yu looked at the photo, Jiang Qi's posture on the photo was really respectful, and he pondered for a while: "Laos, Ruan Zheng wants to touch drugs?"
Luo Yu and Ruan Zheng have never touched drugs, but in those places under He Yonggui's hands, there are often some unclean things.
Before Xing Licheng could answer, Luo Yu first denied his guess: "Not necessarily."
He put the photo aside and instructed Xing Licheng: "Let people keep an eye on He Yonggui and Zhen Ting, I think someone wants to be greedy enough to swallow an elephant."
Xing Licheng nodded, and Luo Yu asked him to do his work and signed the things that should be signed. Luo Yu asked Lu Yi, who was standing by the side, if he had any special itinerary tonight.
Lu Yi ate a whip at Lao Song's last time, and now he is more cautious. After re-reading the itinerary, he said, "There is a charity dinner in the evening, hosted by Mr. Lin from Haisheng."
Luo Yu had a new thing at home recently, and he didn't go to the festival very often. He looked at the invitation card and suddenly thought that Su Jiawen had only been out of the sea for so long after being locked up by him. Come home for me, take Su Jiawen to buy new clothes, take care of it, and go to a dinner party with me in the evening."
Lu Yi had met Su Jiawen several times at Luo Yu's house, and had spoken a few times. Hearing Luo Yu asking him to pick up the boy, he thought of Su Jiawen's slightly bowed head when he was talking to him, and his heart moved for some reason. .
Luo Yu didn't hear Lu Yi's answer, looked up at him, only then did Lu Yi react and whispered yes.
Lu Yi arrived at Luo Yu's house. Su Jiawen was bathing Abel. He was wearing a T-shirt and shorts in the conservatory, grabbing the shower and chasing Abel.
Lu Yi was taken to the conservatory by the housekeeper. He watched Su Jiawen aggressively follow the Canary through the glass, and pushed the door in without much thought. Abel was excited by Su Jiawen's water, and when he saw a stranger, he paused, howled fiercely, and jumped up to bite Lu Yi's arm.
Lu Yi's fists and kicks were good, and he took a wrong step to the side to dodge, but the Canary dog was faster, and when he saw that he didn't bite, Abel fell down at the moment of landing, and flashed at a speed that Lu Yi couldn't see clearly. to his ankle bone.
Between the lights and flint, Su Jiawen called out calmly, "Abel."
He didn't bark loudly, but the three people and one dog in the conservatory could hear clearly. Su Jiawen turned off the water, but Lu Yi and the housekeeper didn't make a sound. Voices can be heard.
"Abel," Su Jiawen beckoned to the dog, and Abel ran to Su Jiawen's place, "Let's wash it up, okay?"
Su Jiawen and Abel discussed and squeezed some pet shampoo in the palm of his hand. His white T-shirt was wet, showing some flesh, and the ends of his hair were also wet. It seemed that he was very pure, but Lu Yi didn't know why. Yes, I feel a little wicked.
The housekeeper beside him seemed to think so too, standing beside him with a solemn expression and motionless.
"Mr. Lu, wait a moment," Su Jiawen said while rubbing Abel with foam, without raising his head, "I'll give Abel a bath."
Lu Yi reluctantly twitched the corners of his mouth and went out first.
After Su Jiawen washed Abel, he handed the task of drying to the housekeeper. He also went upstairs to take a shower and walked downstairs clean and refreshing.
Lu Yi explained the purpose of his visit, Su Jiawen's brows were curved, and he followed him with anticipation: "What is the charity dinner like?"
Lu Yi drove by himself, and Su Jiawen sat in the co-pilot. He told Su Jiawen the process of the dinner party and the etiquette of dressing. Su Jiawen listened patiently, and treated him as politely as Luo Yu.
Lu Yi was a little swollen, and almost crossed his card when he bought a suit for Su Jiawen.
Su Jiawen missed the time for bathing the dog, and caught up with the traffic jam at night. Lu Yi couldn't bring Su Jiawen to the hotel before the meal started. He called Luo Yu in fright. Before the number was dialed, Su Jiawen poked it. On his shoulder, he pointed to himself.
The moment Luo Yu answered the phone, the phone had passed from Lu Yi's hand to Su Jiawen's.
"Mr. Luo," Su Jiawen greeted the other party obediently, and then explained the situation, "We are stuck on the road, and we may not be able to come over in time."
Luo Yu didn't know what to say, Su Jiawen glanced at Lu Yi and was the first to admit his mistake: "No, I was too slow to bathe Abel in the afternoon."
He asked Luo Yu a few words softly, and Luo Yu finally felt better. Su Jiawen hung up the phone and told Lu Yi, "Mr. Luo said that it's not good to go in during dinner. When the dinner is over, before the auction starts, come out and pick me up."
Luo Yu put away his mobile phone and took a sip of wine with an unpleasant expression. He has never attended such an occasion alone. The round table he was at was full of distinguished guests, and the companions he brought had their own merits. Only he and the second-in-command of Zhenting, Jiang Qi, who sat opposite, stared at each other with big eyes, and neither of them were accompanied.
On formal occasions, Zhen Ting and Huan An usually don't come to the same table, but this time, the organizer neglected to arrange the table, and arranged Jiang Qi to Luo Yu's table. For a while, the atmosphere was a little awkward.
After the three rounds of drinking, everyone let go, and in the middle of the rounds, a wife who had met Jiang Qi several times asked Jiang Qi half-truth: "Mr. Jiang, it's so hard for you Mr. Ruan to invite you, what is it? When can I come out and show my face?"
Jiang Qi toasted his wife and said, "Ah Zheng has been busy with dating recently."
He is very sturdy, about the same size as Xing Licheng. When he is expressionless, he looks fierce, but his speech is not hurried or slow, and his advance and retreat are moderate, not intimidating.
"Love?" The lady didn't expect this kind of gangster power to fall in love with mortals at first sight, so she was stunned on the spot, "Which lady are you with?"
Jiang Qi smiled and stopped talking. The wife also knew it was rude and fell silent.
"I would also like to meet Ruan Zheng," Luo Yu raised his glass to Jiang Qi across the round table, "I want to ask him a lot of questions."
Luo Yu was both a courtesy and a temptation. He didn't want Jiang Qi to respond to him, but Jiang Qi drank his glass of wine and said, "If there is a chance, it will be a long time in Japan."
After dinner, Su Jiawen also arrived at the hotel, and Luo Yu personally went to pick him up. Su Jiawen was wearing a white suit, and his trousers were walking down the curve of his legs. Luo Yu leaned over and asked him affectionately, "Have you eaten dinner?"
"Lu Yi took me to eat." Su Jiawen said.
The lobby of the hotel was resplendent, and two bodyguards stood at the elevator entrance. Seeing Luo Yu coming back, they pressed the up button for him.
"What did you eat?" Luo Yu took him into the elevator. The dinner party was on the fourth floor and the auction hall was on the fifth floor. Luo Yu chose 5 directly, and pressed Su Jiawen in the elevator to touch his newly cut hair. The sideburns are shaved and fluffy, and the hand feels very good, "Who cut it for you?"
"Ordinary Cantonese cuisine, a man named Paul was found by Lu Yi." Su Jiawen replied one by one.
When the elevator arrived, Luo Yu left some distance from him and led him out.
The lights in the auction hall were dim, and there were not many people. They gathered in twos and threes to chat and laugh. When they saw Luo Yu coming in, they all stood up to say hello to him. Luo Yu nodded one by one.
Su Jiawen was a little nervous. He wanted to get close to Luo Yu but didn't dare. Luo Yu's position was arranged in the second row. He sat down with Su Jiawen and said, "Tell me what you want later."
Su Jiawen nodded, leaning beside him without making a sound.
Luo Yu knew his character, so he didn't force him to be slick. He picked up the auction brochure and looked at it, and discussed with Su Jiawen while watching it.
The quality of the auction items this night was not bad. Luo Yu liked two or three items. When he was telling Su Jiawen that a watch was suitable for him, the person next to him took his seat. Luo Yu turned his head and saw that it was Jiang Qi.
"Mr. Luo." Jiang Qi nodded politely at him, but he couldn't see that Zhenting and Huanyu were about to fight.
Luo Yu also smiled at him.
"This is very beautiful," Su Jiawen read the booklet intently, and when Luo Yu finished greeting, pointed to a silver vase on the booklet, and said softly to Luo Yu, "It matches the dining table at home."
Luo Yu leaned over to see that it was indeed the same style as the dining table, so he discussed the home furnishings with him.
After a while, the charity auction started. It started with some jewelry. Neither Su Jiawen nor Luo Yu were very interested. Su Jiawen lay beside Luo Yu's ear and guessed what price it would get.
Luo Yu seldom spoke at the auction. Hearing Su Jiawen, who had never seen the world, rambled with him, and found it interesting, so he discussed with him as if he was coaxing a child.
The penultimate vase was Su Jiawen's fancy. Luo Yu first asked other buyers to raise their cards. When the price stabilized and the auctioneer struck the second hammer for the first time, he raised the cards.
As soon as he finished bidding, Jiang Qi also raised the sign.
Luo Yu frowned, glanced at Jiang Qi, and raised his cards to add 100,000.
Su Jiawen was taken aback when he heard the numbers from the auctioneer. He pulled Luo Yu's sleeve and asked him, "It's so expensive, why don't you?"
Unexpectedly, Jiang Qi raised the card again, and Su Jiawen grabbed Luo Yu's hand: "Mr. Luo, don't shoot, this kind of vase is everywhere in antique shops."
Luo Yuli ignored him, threw Su Jiawen's hand away impatiently, and continued to hold the card with his feet crossed. Finally, when Jiang Qi raised an outrageous price, Luo Yu threw the card and said to Jiang Qi, "Gan Bai loses."
Su Jiawen looked timidly at Luo Yu, then at Jiang Qi, and stopped talking.
With Luo Yu and Jiang Qi coming out, the last lot was sold very quickly, the auction was over, and the lights were on.
It was still early, Luo Yu was about to take Su Jiawen out, when a wealthy businessman stopped him, as if he had something to look for.
The wealthy businessman and Luo Yu had met several times, and Luo Yu let go of Su Jiawen's hand when he saw his solemn expression.
"Lu Yi, take your family to walk around," Luo Yu instructed Lu Yi, and took Xing Licheng to the side hall with the wealthy businessman.
Lu Yi had been to this hotel before, and he took Su Jiawen to the terrace on the fifth floor.
The night wind blows the broken hair in front of Su Jiawen's forehead a little loose. His skin is smooth and fair, and his eyelashes are dense and long. When he looks at someone, it makes people feel that the night wind is so sweet, and the evening scene is so romantic.
"It's been a month," Su Jiawen said sadly, "my thesis hasn't been written yet."
Lu Yi helped the Su family go to Pingda for the suspension procedures. After reading his transcripts, Su Jiawen's grades were very good and he was very popular with his tutors. Lu Yi hesitated for a moment and said, "I left the phone number of your department head. If you have any questions, I can help you."
Hearing that, Su Jiawen was first grateful, thinking of Luo Yu's temper, and a little worried. He looked at the door of the terrace and asked Lu Yi nervously, "Mr. Luo will be unhappy when he finds out?"
Lu Yi thought for a while and said, "It shouldn't be."
Su Jiawen nodded: "Then let me think about it."
The two were talking when the glass door of the terrace was pushed open, it was Jiang Qi. Jiang Qi seemed to be looking for someone. He saw Su Jiawen, paused on his feet, and walked towards them, holding a box in his hand.
Lu Yi saw Jiang Qi getting closer and closer, standing in front of Su Jiawen, with a tense posture. Su Jiawen patted Lu Yi's arm and said it was okay.
He walked sideways from behind Lu Yi and asked Jiang Qi, "Are you looking for me?"
"Don't remember me?" Jiang Qi asked him.
"Can I talk to him alone for a while?" Jiang Qi asked Lu Yi again.
Lu Yi naturally refused. It was good for him to let Jiang Qi talk to Su Jiawen.
"Why are you with Luo Yu?" Jiang Qi asked him, he treated Su Jiawen very well, different from Luo Yu and his friends, with respect and inquiry.
Su Jiawen didn't know how to explain this question, but Lu Yi helped him to answer: "Mr. Jiang is too much in charge."
Jiang Qi glanced at Lu Yi. He was taller and stronger than Lu Yi. He was not angry when he heard Lu Yi's words, but he kindly handed the box in his hand to Su Jiawen: "Give it to you."
Su Jiawen took it and opened it to see that it was the sky-high vase he photographed.
"How is Luo Yu treating you?" Jiang Qi looked at Su Jiawen deeply.
Su Jiawen wanted to return the box to Jiang Qi, but Jiang Qi didn't answer it, so Lu Yi took it hard and stuffed it back to Jiang Qi.
Jiang Qi was not annoyed either. He held the box and said, "It was originally made for you. I heard you say you like it."
"Thank you, but no need." Su Jiawen declined, "It's too precious,"
"The thing itself is not expensive, but Luo Yu called it expensive," Jiang Qi smiled, "If you don't want it, I'll keep it for you first."
Having said that, he left.
"You know him?" Lu Yi asked Su Jiawen. He saw Su Jiawen's expression and thought that Su Jiawen had probably forgotten.
Sure enough, Su Jiawen shook his head suspiciously: "I don't know."
At this time, Xing Licheng's phone call came and asked where Lu Yi was with Su Jiawen. Luo Yu's matter was over.
Lu Yi hurried back with Su Jiawen.
Luo Yu took Xing Licheng and stood in the hotel lobby. Luo Yu waited for Su Jiawen to run over and asked him, "Where did you go?"
"Going to the terrace," Su Jiawen stroked his hair, breathing a little, Luo Yu walked out, he followed.
Sitting in the car, Luo Yu closed his eyes and took a nap. Su Jiawen sat for a while and listened to Luo Yu say, "I'll buy you a better-looking vase next time."
Su Jiawen was stunned for a while before realizing that Luo Yu was talking to him. He turned to look at Luo Yu, but Luo Yu still didn't open his eyes, so he explained, "No need."
"Why not?" Luo Yu opened his eyes and stared at Su Jiawen.
Su Jiawen was confused by him. In his opinion, a vase is just a dispensable decoration. If you have fate, you can buy one. If you don't have fate, you can decorate the table with other things.
But Luo Yu didn't press him. Luo Yu had something in his heart. He went home to the study and made a long phone call. When he returned to the room, Su Jiawen fell asleep.
Su Jiawen fell asleep in the middle of the bed, Luo Yu pushed him unceremoniously, and Su Jiawen obediently rolled to the edge of the bed. Luo Yu couldn't help laughing when he saw that he was still so trembling in his sleep.
It was a helpless move for the rich businessman to find him today. He set his sights on a piece of land on the outskirts of the capital and paid a deposit to participate in the auction, but his deposit was returned yesterday. He wanted Toro Yu to ask what the problem was.
Luo Yu can help or not. Luo Yu has always been stingy in this regard, so he agreed.
Shen Qixue knew better than him about the situation in the capital, so he made a phone call to Shen Qixue, and Shen Qixue asked him for help, only to find out that the land had already been decided, and the person Shen Qixue asked was Jiang Qi.
Zhenting has mainly developed in overseas peace cities in recent years, and has never been to the inland. First, because of the depth of the water, he cannot enter without a background. Second, he earns quick money for arms and does not follow the right path.
Now Jiang Qi suddenly went to the capital to shoot the land, and there was still some relationship, so Luo Yu had to guard against it.
He asked Shen Qihe to help him find out which Buddha Jiang Qi was backing, and then asked Xing Licheng to make a copy of Zhenting's investment form this year for him.
It wasn't until he lay down beside Su Jiawen that Luo Yu felt a little more relaxed.
Su Jiawen slept defenseless, his face was dyed thin red, the bedside lamp shone from top to bottom, the shadow of his eyelashes hit the bridge of his nose, warm and soft.
Su Jiawen is like home, although the house is crumbling and fragile, and it can stop manic depression for a moment, which is amazing.
Luo Yu put his hand on his waist and fell asleep.
Lu Yi and Xing Licheng lived upstairs and downstairs. The house was not far from Luo Yu's residence. When Luo Yu told them to leave, Xing Licheng drove Lu Yi back. Quiet.
Suddenly, Xing Licheng asked Lu Yi, "Have you met Jiang Qi on the terrace today? I see him going there."
Lu Yi was startled and said, "I met him. He came to find Su Jiawen."
"Why are you looking for Su Jiawen?" Xing Licheng asked again with a heavy expression.
"Jiang Qi took the vase he took and said he wanted to give it to Su Jiawen," Lu Yi replied, "He seems to know Su Jiawen, but Su Jiawen doesn't know him."
Xing Licheng frowned slightly when he heard what he said: "How do you know that Su Jiawen doesn't know him?"
"Su Jiawen looks very surprised, it doesn't look like he's pretending." Lu Yi thought he was fair.
There was a red light ahead, Xing Licheng stepped on the brakes and stopped, glanced at Lu Yi, and said, "I see."
Lu Yi was silent for a while, and then he opened his mouth and asked, "Brother Xing, will Mr. Luo treat Su Jiawen?"
"Take care of yourself." Xing Licheng didn't answer his question, the green light came on again, and he drove forward.
