The snow outside the red-brick building melted, melted and fell again, and as soon as the days passed, the New Year passed in the blink of an eye.

As for Chu Yunsheng, he hadn't seen Yu Jingzhi since that night on the 29th of the twelfth lunar month.

That night, although the news of Yu Jingzhi's assassination and serious injuries came to his ears, Chu Yun said that he did not have too many worries.

He knew very well that even if Yu Jingzhi didn't trust him very much at the moment, he reminded him in his heart that with Yu Jingzhi's cautiousness, he would definitely be more careful about the situation at the dance and would not be easily tricked.

Moreover, when he rushed back to the Golden Mansion, although the place was under martial law and the lights were bright, people seemed to be in a panic, but Liu Er and others, who could be called Yu Jingzhi's confidants, were calm and composed, and there was not much anxiety. .

It can be seen that the assassination was probably Yu Jingzhi's plan.

Yu Jingzhi closed his doors to thank guests in the name of recuperating his wounds and thoroughly investigating the traitor. I am afraid that it was Jin Chan who escaped and made another plan.

Chu Yunsheng asked Liu Er a few words, but Liu Er only said that Mr. Yu was injured and needed to rest, so he didn't mention any more.

Yu Jingzhi didn't want to reveal it to him, so Chu Yun claimed that he didn't ask any more questions. He patiently stayed in the Jin Mansion, prepared the plan for the pharmaceutical factory, and sorted out what he could learn.

Life in the Golden Mansion was the same as what Chu Yunsheng had asked before, and it was almost house arrest.

He was left in Yu Jingzhi's small building, and his range of activities was only on the upper and second floors, and he couldn't even step into the small garden a step away. But in the cold winter and twelfth lunar month, he wasn't too interested in going outside to blow the cold wind.

His room was on the corner of the second floor, connected to a small study, and guarded day and night by guards with guns or men in black with bunts, it could be said that he was heavily guarded.

The balcony of the bedroom is facing the direction of the mansion's door. On New Year's Eve, can hear the children's babble from the street, and the sound of firecrackers in the middle of the night.

The first year came to this world was not very enjoyable, Chu Yunsheng sat at his desk until the sky was lighted, went to the dining room and ate the cook's dumplings, and then entered the study again.

In this way, he lived like a foreign machine that didn't know how to sleep. Even Liu Er was amazed by it, and often looked at him with strange eyes.

The machine was busy until the twelfth day of the first lunar month, when it got stuck and stopped.

In the middle of the night on the twelfth day of the first lunar month, everything was silent, and Liu Er banged on Chu Yunsheng's door.

Chu Yunsheng finished his work ahead of time. Not long after he fell asleep, he woke up when he heard the sound, glanced at the file bag on the desk where the manuscript was sealed, and then got up and opened the door.

Liu Er showed his face from the door, and the nerves that had been tense all day seemed to be loosened, and whispered to Chu Yun: "Chu Shao, sir, you are going back to Haicheng, you take Dongyi with you, Hurry up and go downstairs."

Chu Yunsheng knew that this should be Yu Jingzhi's return from work and was about to leave the capital, so he didn't ask any further questions, turned around and put the portfolio into the suitcase that he had packed long ago, changed his clothes and went out with Liu Er. .

When Liu Er saw Chu Yunsheng's actions, he was suspicious, but he didn't say much, and led people out of the small building to the door of the Golden Mansion.

‌There was a car parked in the alley beside the door, shadowed by dim street lights.

Chu Yunsheng approached, the car door opened, and the sharp-eyed young man leaned against the inner car window and looked over with a faint voice: "Young Master Chu is not surprised?"

Climbing into the car and putting the box away, Chu Yunsheng looked at Yu Jingzhi's face that seemed to be a bit more smokey than the last time we met, and then shifted his gaze to glance at him, which was slightly tilted. The sitting position of the center of gravity is most fixed on his right waist: "You are injured."

Hearing this, Liu Er Shen, who was sitting in the front row and was about to start the car, changed and immediately looked into the sight glass.

"gentlemen"

"drive."

Yu Jingzhi raised his eyebrows, interrupted Liu Er, and said in a low voice, "The Chu family is in the pharmacy business, and Young Master Chu has studied medicine abroad, so it is not surprising that he has some eyesight. A few days ago, Yu was calculated, and the days of recuperation were short, and there was some inconvenience, which is natural. Yu is right, Master Chu?"

Chu Yunsheng heard Ji Feng in Yu Jing's words, but did not answer, but said: "Returning to Haicheng with an injury, as Mr. Yu, I am afraid it will be troublesome, so I won't stay in Peiping for a few more days. "

Yu Jingzhi stood by the side: "I started from Peiping today, and I didn't have time to arrive at Haicheng on this day. If I stay for a few more days, I won't be able to get there... Young Master Chu wants me to stay?"

"I hope, I don't."

Chu Yunsheng glanced at Yu Jingzhi and said directly: "It's the fourteenth day of the first lunar month, Haicheng Railway Station should have something against Mr. Yu, you are injured, you shouldn't use your body any longer. It's a risk. But since Mr. Yu decided to go back, he must have made up his mind, made preparations according to the plan, and maybe there will be some unexpected gains when he goes back this way."

The voice fell, and the car moved.

The tires seemed to be unstable, and they slipped on the ice surface of the Hutong before grinding them, scraping a large swath of lights into the windows.

On the seat, the light and shadow of Yu Jingzhi's profile flickered, like a layer of ice, which froze the meaning of his lips into a hint of interesting coldness.

He looked forward, raised his hand and pulled away the tightly tied collar of his military uniform, blinking as if thinking and sighing, and said, "Chu Yunsheng, I'm really curious, what the hell are you doing? Is it too stupid or too smart... This question makes me curious, even in the freezing cold of the north, where the bullets are full of bullets, I can't help but wonder."

With that said, Yu Jingzhi casually opened the book on his knees, moved his two fair fingers slightly, and pulled out a willow bookmark from the page.

——Unfortunately, this bookmark is exactly the one that Chu Yunsheng received from Zhang Peng.

Chu Yunsheng frowned slightly.

When he saw this bookmark in Yu Jingzhi's hands, Chu Yunsheng couldn't call it a surprise, but he was surprised that Yu Jingzhi would tell him so directly.

In fact, when Liu Er knocked on the door to call for him, he already knew that Yu Jingzhi knew much more than he did. And he didn't intend to hide anything from Yu Jingzhi.

Yu Jingzhi obviously saw his intentions, so he was deeply surprised. In Yu Jingzhi's world, there may be no one who is frank enough.

Paying attention to the expression on Chu Yunsheng's face, Yu Jingzhi's eyes moved slightly, and he casually pressed the bookmark, as if he had caught up on this topic. He did not continue to inquire about the origin of the bookmark, nor did he inquire about Chu Yunsheng. He turned his back, but suddenly turned like a commonplace gossip and said, "The eyes are blue and black, are you not used to living in the mansion these few days?"

Chu Yunsheng looked at Yu Jingzhi's pale face as the car bumped, and replied, "Since Mr. Yu has agreed, then Chu should make some preparations for setting up a factory."

Yu Jingzhi glanced forward, and Liu Er who was driving the car immediately said: "Sir, Young Master Chu has been busy writing and drawing in the small study at this time, resting in the middle of the night and getting up before dawn. , I didn't go through the building except for three meals a day, and without your instructions, no one of us went in to see it, I don't know what Master Chu is cooking."

‌The seat was silent for a while, and Yu Jingzhi opened it low and said, "It's still far from the station, you can still sleep for a while."

When the voice fell, in the shadows in the car, Yu Jingzhi suddenly frowned and pursed his lipseveryday, he said, whether true or false, of caring for others. For this kind of person, it can be said to be at your fingertips, but the words that came out of his eyes and throat made him suddenly and inexplicably feel a burning difficulty.

It's as if just saying these words can damage the heart, liver, spleen, and weirdness.

The car's engine hummed.

Yu Jingzhi slowly took a breath, raised his hand to press his eyebrows, and calmed down the weirdness. He was about to close his eyes, but he closed his eyes for a while, but found that a half-shadow suddenly turned in front of him.

He raised his eyes, saw Chu Yunsheng turned halfway, and said to him, "The car is driving erratically, can you rely on Mr. Yu?"

As soon as these words came out, Liu's steering wheel was thrown into the courtyard by the roadside.

He has been by Yu Jingzhi's side for more than two years, and he has never seen anyone who dared to make such a request, and he is still a big, rigid man. It is the beauties in the ballroom who are on the scene. At most, they are the sleeves of Mr. Yu, and if there is more, it is a sin. Don't look at Mr. Yu's usual conversation with people, but he is a master who can't be approached seriously.

This young master Chu is really a bear-hearted leopard!

Liu Er held his breath unknowingly, and held down the gun on his waist with his left hand, ready to listen to Yu Jingzhi's orders at any time and shoot this ignorant son.

However, for a moment, he saw Mr. Yu, whose face was slowly cold, raised his eyebrows in the sight glass, and then —— sighed.

Liu Er was stunned, a layer of cold sweat oozing out from his back inexplicably.

He quickly retracted his gaze, concentrated on holding the steering wheel, and stopped looking.

With Yu Jingzhi's answer, Chu Yunsheng expected it, but instead of leaning on Yu Jingzhi's slightly unfolded right shoulder, he curled up his legs in the small carriage. Lie down directly on Yu Jingzhi's lap.

"Fairy Wood"

Facing Yu Jingzhi's lower abdomen, he stretched out one hand to hold Yu Jingzhi's waist, forming a natural support between Yu Jingzhi's waist and the back of the car seat, which just relieved Yu Jingzhi's waist. ‌The pain of the waist gunshot wound in the bumps.

The slightly rough military uniform cloth rubbed the tip of the cheeks and nose, and the muscle lines felt by the skin were instantly tensed, and the stiffness became steel.

The eyes that fell from the top suddenly nailed to Chu Yunsheng, like a cold and sharp ice arrow.

A hand fell with it.

The fingers covered with thin calluses caught Chu Yunsheng's Adam's apple, and slipped lightly like a feather, but there was a deadly danger of Leng Rui, as if it would press and crush this fragile throat at any time.

Chu Yunsheng ignored it, and closed his eyes with a tired look on his face.

The hand paused and slowly moved away.

Chu Yunsheng knew very well that the doubts on Yu Jingzhi did not conflict with love and hate, so when he was taking care of Yu Jingzhi's wounds, Yu Jingzhi might doubt and guess, but he would never Will do something to him based on the evidence.

Perhaps it was really too tired, or perhaps it was the familiar breath that had been carved into the bone marrow of this life after another to give tranquility, Chu Yunsheng actually slept for a short good night on this bumpy road.

When he opened his eyes again, it was already deep into the night, and the car seemed to be on a trip to the suburbs of Beijing halfway through to the train station from the road outside the city. No wonder the Jin Mansion was very close to the train station, but Yu Jingzhi said it was still far.

Yu Jingzhi didn't seem to care about making a cushion for the second time, and when he saw the lights of Beiping Railway Station from a distance, his expression was as usual, which made the awake Chu Yun squeak.

After midnight, the train station was deserted, and there were not many people.

The car stopped outside the station, Chu Yunsheng followed Yu Jingzhi into the station, and the conductor with the lantern immediately came over to lead the way carefully and came to a freight train.

There were still a few figures standing vaguely on the platform near the train. One of them seemed to have seen Yu Jingzhi and eagerly stepped forward a few steps. Thanks to Mr. Yu's mediation, I can only return safely from a distant life. My gratitude is beyond words! It's just that I don't know how to live in a Shenyang home..."

Yu Jingzhi greeted this man, held the hand firmly, showed a gentle expression on his face, and said comfortingly: "I have already let Lu Yun go to Shenyang, if I can meet Mr. Zheng's family, I will go to Dalian. Waterway, avoid the pursuit, and reunite with us in Jincheng. Mr. Zheng can rest assured, the time is urgent, get on the bus first."

Yu Jingzhi's words were firm and convincing, which made the Mr. Zheng gradually calm down.

People on the platform got on the train one after another.

Entering the car, Chu Yunsheng was able to see clearly the appearance of Mr. Zheng by the bright light from the kerosene gas lamp - a Chinese tunic suit, wide glasses, a beard on his lips, a middle-aged man. He has a broad face and a warm temperament, very much like a teacher.

The carriage of this freight train is completely empty, and some tables and chairs are temporarily placed.

A group of people came in, and each found a place to rest. The Mr. Zheng was led to a carriage that seemed to be used as a sleeper, while Chu Yunsheng sat opposite Yu Jingzhi and put the luggage in the suitcase. He took out the portfolio and handed it to Yu Jingzhi.

Yu Jingzhi took it with a flat face, opened it to look, and said, "I sent a telegram to Haicheng before, and I have already marked the construction of the factory."

Chu Yunsheng was impressed by Yu Jingzhi's resolute actions, remembering the train timetable he had just seen at the station, and said, "This train will not stop in Jincheng originally."

Yu Jingzhi lifted the hand of the manuscript paper and said, "Not now."

Chu Yunsheng raised his eyes to look at Yu Jingzhi.

"This gentleman's name is Zheng Yuansheng. He published a number of chapters, and he led the Chinese character movement that swept over half of China. He is a respectable person. The situation in the northeast was chaotic, and he was hunted down by various forces. I He was entrusted to take him to Haicheng. He didn't want to leave his family, but he was wanted from the border and could not return to Shenyang."

"I promised to pick him up. Mr. Zheng is still uneasy. He tried to turn around despite the danger several times, but he was unwilling when he arrived in Beiping. But he couldn't die in the northeast, and many people still needed him."

Yu Jingzhi leaned back into the chair, looked directly into Chu Yunsheng's eyes, and said solemnly, "He has a virtuous wife and a pair of children under ten years old."

"Lu Yun didn't go to Shenyang. But I went."

He went, but he didn't bring anything back.

Chu Yunsheng felt that the air in the car suddenly became dull and stagnant, like a thick pool of blood, filling his lungs.

He knew why Yu Jingzhi chose to delay telling Zheng Yuansheng the truth, and knew what would happen if he couldn't bring back even a pinch of ashes - in this world, don't know if the dead are more miserable, or the living ones Harder.

Chu Yunsheng looked at Yu Jingzhi through a kerosene gas lamp.

After a long time, and it seemed like a while later, he retracted his gaze, raised his hand and picked up the kettle beside the table, poured out a full cup of hot water, and placed it in front of Yu Jingzhi.

Yu Jingzhi glanced at him and didn't move the cup of hot water, but the fingers that were pressed stiffly on the portfolio moved slowly, and in a moment, he lifted the thick stack of manuscript paper again.

At the same time, the sea city thousands of miles away.

In the first half of the night, the lanterns were gradually extinguished in the theater, which was full of people. The guests dispersed, and they came in deserted.

The buddies came to sweep the coins and copper plates on the stage, the melons, fruits and peanuts peeled on the tables and chairs, and the fragrance of the cooling tea still lingered on the table, like the bright and melodious lyrics of a flower actress, which could not go around the beam.

On the side of the stage, on the patio in the middle of the courtyard, a handsome young man in a white shirt was standing, carrying half a bucket of water into a wooden basin and wiping his face. The clear moonlight shone on half of his body, hooking him into a graceful shadow.

The young man was wiping, when there was a sound of hurried footsteps.

A gorgeous young man in a blue robe ran over quickly, his body was dusty, as if he had just returned from outside, and when he saw the white-robed young man, he hurriedly said: "Bai Chu, why are you hiding here? ‌I have something important to tell you!"

Bai Chu wiped the water off his face with a handkerchief and said softly, "Ling Bi, what are you in a hurry for, speak slowly. What's the matter?"

Saying that, Bai Chu waved to Li Lingbi, and took out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat from his forehead.

Li Lingbi let him wipe it, and said flatly, "It's not about the factory... I made a bet with Master Xuan and made a letter. If you can run the matter of the factory site by yourself, Master Xuan will give me the ocean. For investment, I partnered with me to set up a factory to do business. I have been running for the past few days, and even those customers in the past have been with my face to deal with it. The price was paid, but it was taken away in the blink of an eye!"

Bai Chu said in surprise: "Why did you take it away?"

Li Lingbi turned around and sat on the small stool, but she was so angry that she had to lower her voice, and whispered: "Mr. Yu asked for that piece of squat, but he didn't say what he did... I thought that Mr. Yu's family was very big, and he didn't say anything at all. There's no shortage of that piece, but unfortunately I can't see him, otherwise I'll use my three-inch tongue to persuade him to sell it to me..."

After talking like this, Li Lingbi raised her hand and hugged Bai Chu's arm, rolled her eyes slightly, and said, "Speaking of Mr. Yu, Bai Chu, do you know Mr. Yu? I heard that he has heard of you. The voice, I also praised it..."

Bai Chu didn't understand what Li Lingbi meant, so he just shook his head and said, "How can I recognize someone like Mr. Yu?"

Li Lingbi looked at Bai Chu's appearance and thought to herself that you don't know anyone, you two are a couple in the novel.

In this era, Li Lingbi was never willing to give up the idea of ​​setting up a factory and rising up. Now, if he is blocked in one step, that is not acceptable. Now that it is in Mr. Yu's hands, Bai Chu can only try it.

As for whether Bai Chu would go down the old path of being scumbaged by Mr. Yu, Li Lingbi couldn't care about it for a while, but the big deal was that he would make a fool of himself and be able to compete with Mr. Yu, so he tried to get Bai Chu out. come out.

Li Lingbi's thoughts turned, and she said: "Forget it, forget about these spoilers. Hey Baichu, the New Year's Day is coming, the troupe's big show is about to start, you've been practicing for so long, you're so amazing, Do you want to take this opportunity to officially take the stage? It's up to me, sure!"

Bai Chu looked at Li Lingbi's splendid face, and his heart was relaxed and bright.

Looking at Li Lingbi's expectantly encouraging eyes, he nodded slightly, and then stopped.
