Under the clouds

Chapter 38

After Xu Duming was stabbed, even though the rescue was timely, the injured part was still too sensitive and fragile, and he has not woken up until now.

The vital signs have stabilized, but whether he can wake up or just become a vegetable is still unknown.

And once this matter happened, a small role like Zang Lanbai should have been inescapable, but it never occurred to him that the collector would play a part in it.

However, the Xu family is not a small family after all, whether it is Zang Lanbai and the insignificant Fang Mu, the two culprits, even Zang Qingyue, who now holds a part of the power of the Tibetan family, may not be able to make a living here. Seek benefits in this matter.

Jin Shuo thought so at first.

Xu Duming is now the person in power of the Xu family, so it is absolutely impossible for the Xu family to let go of such a major event.

Overtly and secretly, the Xu family and the Tibetan family have begun to have some friction.

Since the collector Zang Qingyue will participate in this matter, then Zang Qingyue must be with Zang Lanbai, and there must be a connection. Presumably, the collector will put pressure on Zang Qingyue to let her Hand over the Tibetan cypress, so as to restore the relationship between the Xu family and the Tibetan family in the business field.

However, what Jin Shuo didn't expect was that the two families, which were originally tense and tense, three days ago, because the 85-year-old Tibetan old man visited Xu's family in person because of this matter. What good are those older generations.

The Xu family's attitude towards Xu Duming's matter gradually became ambiguous. On the surface, the attitude was strong and said that the collector should give an explanation, but in reality they did not take any strong action on this matter.

Xu Duming's assassination was such a big matter, yet he was picked up so high and put down gently.

The environment is beautiful, located in a private sanatorium near the lake around the city.

When Jin Shuo came out of the ward, Xu Duming in the room was still unconscious, and Jin Shuo, his confidant, was in charge of all the current affairs.

Seeing that the number of times the Xu family came to ask Xu Duming decreased, Jin Shuo already had some bad premonitions.

After all, the Xu family is not the same, with many descendants, Xu Duming used many disgraceful means to rise to the position back then, but now that he can't wake up like this, the younger generation is already ready to move.

Go on like this for a long time...

With a gloomy face, Jin Shuo walked to the corridor, habitually wanting to take out his cigarettes, but he had been reminded by the nurse many times, after he reached into his pocket and touched the cigarette case, he stopped again.

Not being able to smoke made his already gloomy face even more restless.

At this moment, the elevator door on the floor opened, and his subordinates walked over, holding a folder in his hand.

"Have you found it?" Jin Shuo took it over and opened the file.

"Only a part, this matter involves the secrets of the collectors, it is not easy to check, and the time interval is too long..."

Jin Shuo interrupted the incompetent subordinate in front of him with a series of meaningless words like shirking responsibility: "Okay! Go down!" He waved impatiently, and he no longer wanted the other party to be an eyesore in front of him.

As he said this, his eyes fell on the opened documents and he began to browse.

"Wait! Did Zang Lanbai go abroad to recuperate a few days after his father and his cousin had an accident?" Jin Shuo looked at the date that was too close, thinking of what was discovered during the investigation during this period. The wonderful scene about the two collectors' uncles and nephews vying for Rong Ping.

His eyes stayed there for a long time: "Why do I feel that things are not so simple? Did he really go to treat the disease or was he trying to avoid something? His hospital was also arranged by Zang Qingyue, and the timing was too coincidental." Bar."

"Hey! How long are you going to go shopping?" Luo Yan couldn't help but yawned, with reluctance written all over his face, and he followed Fang Mu's butt without energy.

Fang Mu pursed his lips when he heard him complaining like this, and after a while he couldn't help but retorted: "I didn't ask you to follow me."

"Me!..." Luo Yan couldn't help gnashing his teeth: "Do you think that if that kid Zang Lanbai hadn't arranged for me, and had marked three red lines under the message of not letting you go out alone, I would have followed you in the middle of the night What kind of shit apple juice are you buying here!?"

Because Fang Mu was very resistant to crowded places, he came to the supermarket until late at night. At this time, it was a weekday, and there were very few people in the supermarket.

"That's delicious apple juice!" Fang Mu corrected again with a frown.

"All right, all right! Are you finished?" Luo Yan looked at Fang Mu's movements: "You just ran over in the middle of the night to get two bottles! Hurry up with a box! Don't wait two days and drag it around in the middle of the night I'll come over……"

The chattering all the way, the unqualified new nanny Luo Yan lost her night life, and kept berating Fang Mu on the way back with a box of delicious apple juice in the back compartment of the car.

He babbled on and on all the way, Fang Mu was not very responsive, and would only reply when he couldn't bear to listen.

"I know you hate me, and I don't want to trouble you to live with you."

After Fang Mu replied, Luo Yan had a new round of chatter, and Fang Mu suddenly said this.

Luo Yan looked at Fang Mu's expression, his fair face was drooping under the dim light, such a beautiful face seemed a bit lonely, the words in his mouth got stuck, he endured it for a while, and there was a self-deprecating expression on his face Uninterestingly sad.

At an intersection waiting for a green light, Luo Yan looked at the person in front of him and said, "I don't hate you, I just don't think you and Zanglanbai are very suitable."

"Then who is suitable for someone like me?" Fang Mu couldn't help but look sideways.

Luo Yan thought that he had touched some sensitive nerve of the other party, so he explained without silver 300 taels: "That's not what I meant, I didn't mean to discriminate against you."

After Luo Yan finished speaking, his brain, which was a bit slow to react, finally caught up again. He let out a "bah", and then said, "I mean the aspect of personality."

Fang Mu didn't speak, Luo Yan has always been a big mouther, hearing that the other party didn't answer the words, he kept saying to himself: "Fang Mu, I know you are very pitiful, and I also sympathize with your experience, and I don't mean to object Who can help you, but falling in love and sympathizing are two different things, Zang Lanbai alone is enough..." Luo Yan pointed to the position of his head, and did not speak too bluntly.

"Drag another you, who knows what irrational things you will do in the future?"

The scene where the two of them stabbed Xu Duming in the underground auction obviously gave Luo Yan a lot of excitement.

"Besides, Li Enshi and I are his senior sister. We all thought that he would be with Jiang Sheng one day sooner or later."

"Jiang Sheng?"

"Well, his first love has been together for more than four years, and the separation was not due to emotional reasons, but because Jiang Sheng's family objected, and they were young at that time, and Jiang Sheng was not yet capable of fighting against his family. At that time, Zang Lanbai had only changed three terms in two years after he separated from him. To use my words, the latter ones were just small troubles, and Jiang Sheng was his main palace."

Luo Yan is like an old woman who chooses a partner for Zang Lanbai: "Jiang Sheng has never been with anyone since him, and he has been inquiring about him from me all these years, but because he has not the ability to stand up and talk to him Zang Lanbai was together, so he endured for many years and did not bother. Whether it is character, character, family background..."

Fang Mu still doesn't know that the friends who hid Lanbai, including his first love, might have thought that there would be some reunion drama between them, that when they were young, they were unable to resist the secular world, but now they are in charge and come back to regain their love. of.

Fang Mu stared at the neon lights ahead, and the voice of Luo Yan, who was sitting in the driving seat, drifted further and further away.

"Do you have any respect, I'm talking to you!"

"Why are your upper and lower eyelids fighting!"

"Hey, aren't you curious? This is Zang Lanbai's love history! Are you sincere to him?"

During the 20-minute journey, Fang Mu almost fell asleep, but fortunately, Luo Yan's tireless noise prevented him from falling asleep.

The two entered the door, and Luo Yan hugged delicious apple juice behind him with a resentful expression on his face.

As soon as the door of the living room was pushed open, there was a person sitting on the sofa, which shocked the two of them.

"Zanglan Cypress!?"

It's just three or four days since I saw him, but the temperament around Zang Lanbai has quietly changed.

He was wearing a silver-gray suit, with two rings on his hands, and two metal chains dangling from the chest of the suit jacket.

Coupled with that stunning appearance, the whole person exudes an indescribable sense of magnificence.

"Mumu, it's been a long time since you came back." Hearing the movement, Zang Lanbai sat on the sofa and turned his head. The long hair behind him followed his movements, and a few strands of hair slipped down the side of his face.

"Why do you have time to come over?" Luo Yan put a box of apple juice in his hand on the table, rolled up his sleeves exaggeratedly, walked to the sofa, stood in front of Zang Lanbai, and took off his small satchel , with the sound of some pills hitting the plastic dispensing box.

"You know what I'm living these days!"

Fang Mu looked at Zang Lanbai: "Did you come to pick me up today?"

"Yo, it doesn't sound like you're getting along very well." Zang Lanbai laughed sullenly, and then replied to Fang Mu: "No, I won't be able to pick you up in a short time, but it shouldn't be long."

"Mumu, we may have to move to a new house," Zang Lanbai said.

"Moving? Why?" Fang Mu couldn't help raising his eyes. Although Zang Lanbai's house was not very large or luxurious, it was undoubtedly the one that gave Fang Mu the most "homey feeling" in these years.

Zang Lanbai avoided answering, and only asked Fang Mu: "What's the matter, wouldn't it be better to change to a bigger house?"

"No, can you listen to me." Luo Yan couldn't help interjecting.

"Are you staying here tonight?" Fang Mu looked at Zang Lanbai anxiously, and added, "It's very late."

This looked like a child under the fence of a foster relative's family. Zang Lanbai turned his refusal words helplessly: "Then I'll leave early tomorrow morning."

Fang Mu's eyes lit up when he got the news: "Then I...then I'll take a shower first."

"No... Is there anyone listening to me!" Luo Yan was forced to feed the dog food, and the grief and anger on his face became heavier.

Seeing that Fang Mu went back to the room and was about to take a shower, Zang Lanbai finally retracted his gaze, and glanced at Luo Yan: "What are you doing, you've been here for less than a week, and you're just like this."

"No, what happened to me!?" These words were not pleasant, Luo Yan was really a little angry.

Zang Lanbai restrained his tone: "I mean, I don't want you to vent your dissatisfaction with my decision on him."

Luo Yan's face was really ugly: "Then who is going to vent it on? Isn't it because of him?" Luo Yan couldn't help lowering his voice when he mentioned this: "Don't forget that you were How did you get rid of the Tibetans?" He rather hated the iron-like tone: "It's all right now, it's all in vain."

"If you are busy working for nothing, you will be busy working for nothing. People have to take and give up. Didn't you always tell me that before?"

"Don't talk about it with me, what is the difference between collectors and stinky gutters to you? Don't you always think that they killed your mother? Just like this, you can lower your head and go back, you see Fang Mu is pitiful, you are really involved now, when you are pitiful, you are still behind, don’t call me in the middle of the night again, last time I nodded and bowed in front of my brother because of Fang Mu’s matter, pretending to be aggrieved by my grandson half dead..."

"Well, fine. I'll try my best not to let you nod your head and pretend to be a grandson." Zang Lanbai's tone was a little more serious.

Luo Yan choked on these words, it sounded reasonable on the surface, but it was a bit uncomfortable to hear.

Before Luo Yan could say anything more, Zang Lanbai got up: "Stop talking, I have to get up very early tomorrow."

Unexpectedly, as soon as Zang Lanbai walked to the door of Fang Mu's room, he saw Fang Mu standing there with his hands on the doorknob, stiff and motionless.

This appearance obviously overheard their conversation, Zang Lanbai couldn't help rubbing his brows: "Mumu, eavesdropping is not a good habit."

Fang Mu's stiff body moved slowly after hearing Zang Lanbai's voice, and he turned around to face Zang Lanbai.

His eyes were a little red, but tears never fell. He raised his eyes and looked at Zanglanbai in front of him, and questioned Zanglanbai without any threat in a voice that seemed to be about to cry.

"You can be weak, you can not fight, you can hide, you can not forgive?"

"When someone is brave for me and fights for me...?" Fang Mu choked up halfway through his words.
