C201 (1/2)
Late at night.
The man pulled his arm out from under the woman's neck. With a rustling sound, he finally put on his robe and stood up.
His tall body stood on the edge of the bed, his pitch-black eyes focused on the tiny body on the bed. Under the yellowish light, he tightly locked onto that small white face.
Perhaps because he had already gotten up, Lu Qinan's small face wrinkled slightly, and her closed eyes that were as thick as a fan's eyelashes landed back down.
Gu Zhongshen squinted his eyes as he leaned over and kissed her on the forehead.
The small lump suddenly quieted down.
”Hello, Zi Nan, how is your question?”
It was already midnight. His man was standing on the balcony, wrapped in a nightgown. His handsome face was expressionless as he quietly listened to the conversation on the phone.
It's just that that recording was given to him by Gu He, as to where Gu He obtained it from, Qin Xuanman himself does not know either. ”What, you suspect that it's …”
Gu Zhongshen did not immediately reply. He stood there for a long time, it was winter night, and cold air floated in from outside. He looked at the lights in the distance and ran his fingers along the side, searching for a cigarette.
Light it up.
”Second Brother went to check, and indeed, Gu He had appeared in a famous city recently. He carried the debts of Macao and did not dare show his face. Someone was chasing him, but I don't know if it was Macau or someone else. ”
The man pursed his lips, his chin was as hard as a knife, and the cigarette butt in his hand was clamped very tightly. Mist rose up, but was quickly dispersed by the cold wind, just like his mood.
”Zi Nan, I have a feeling, it's him.”
After a long time, he extinguished the cigarette, causing Gu Zhongshen's eyebrows to flicker unsteadily. Clenching his finger tightly, the cold feeling seeped out of his fingertips, and he immediately calmed down.
Zhu Zinan froze for a few seconds, and only after a long while did he react, his voice slowly became softer, heavier and heavier, ”How are you so sure it's him, he … Still alive? ”
There would be no other reason.
Gu Zhongshen's gaze gradually became cold, his pitch black eyes looked at the lights in the distance, they seemed to be stained with the golden color, his Adam's apple rolled down, and his voice was hoarse and dry, ”Shen Wenqi's wife, An An's aunt, also received the photo that was sent from Hong Kong.”
”How could she be related to these people …”
Wait a minute.
Zhu Zinan suddenly thought of something. There were only two women that were related to the incident that year, the first of them was a little girl who had already been rescued, and the other was raised, becoming the current Madam.
And the other one...
”Lao Si, are you serious? This kind of thing, this kind of thing cannot be judged based on guesses, and you haven't seen her much either, can you be sure? ”
Yes.
Zhu Zinan asked a few questions, but did not get an answer. The man's voice came out, ”Wake her up, hang up.”
Zhu Zinan froze with a face full of shock. He suddenly recalled that a few days ago, Lian Shuyan had chatted with him, and mentioned that the Gu Lao Si was suddenly very curious about medicine, and actually asked him about gene optimization, marriage by blood relatives …
and so on...
He stood there in shock, the cigarette in his hand had all dropped. From behind him came the sound of footsteps, and it was Lin Qinghuan who was holding a cup of water, looking at him somewhat angrily.
”Young Master Chu, which woman are you calling in the middle of the night?”
”Gu Lao Si, what kind of woman is he …”
Lin Qinghuan was careful, after getting pregnant she became extremely sleepy, and without asking any questions, she went back to her bed.
On the other side, Lu Qinan opened his eyes in a daze and saw the tall figure on the balcony.
Gu Zhongshen immediately hung up and came back. He pushed open the glass door and walked in, only to see her curled up on the bed with a sleepy look on her face, ”There's something wrong with the company, did I wake you up?”
”Ugh …” Lu Qinan stretched out her hand, her long arm wrapped around his slim waist, and shivered from the cold feeling. She wrinkled her nose, but raised her small face and muttered, ”Smoking again.”
”Sorry.”
He wanted to go out and brush his teeth again, but Lu Qinan just refused to let go. She buried her head in his chest and rubbed it, ”In your dreams, you suddenly don't want me anymore.
”Fourth Uncle, go to sleep, I'm sleepy.”
Lu Qinan muttered a few words, but grabbed him to lie back down.
The man made a sound of assent. His voice was tainted by the cool night. His fair skin exuded a hint of coldness. Her thick hands were covered by her own hands, but they had finally warmed up.
Gu Zhongshen followed her wishes, pushed away his blanket and laid down. His body still had a hint of coldness, causing Lu Qinan to shrink back his neck.
In a dark alley of a famous city, the sounds of frantic footsteps could be heard.
The surroundings had already quieted down. The middle-aged man was still holding the bottle of wine in his hand as he ran helplessly. From time to time, he would even look behind him.
”Who the hell are you? Who sent you here?”
Gu He was always panting heavily. Occasionally, he would look behind him but all he saw was a thin and young body, whose stamina was greater than his … But she only kept up with him.
At this point, he raised his hand and pointed ahead, opening his mouth for the first time.
