    Chapter 84 Cold

    A lot of people gathered at the foot of the mountain.

    Tan Xuqing and Clear are in the center, and the doctor is treating Tan Xuqing's hand injury.

    Tan Zheng and Ren Zhaoyuan got out of the car, Jin Shiyan, Tong Zhou, Xing Yi, Yao Qiming all surrounded, and Zhao Yuanqing was standing a little further away.

    "elder brother!"

    Jin Shiyan quickly gave up his seat, Tan Xuqing ran over and hugged Tan Zheng, buried his face for a long time and didn't move.

    She likes to act coquettishly, and she often flirts with Tan Zheng, but more often than not, she is bickering or serious. The usual intimacy is hugging her arms and shaking her arms, but she rarely throws herself into her arms.

    Tan Zheng put one hand on her back and stroked her hair with the other: "You're scared."

    Tan Xuqing shook his head and snorted. He had just described his and Clear's "Prison Break" vividly to a few older brothers, but now his eyes were blushing.

    Tan Zheng touched her face, knowing that the smug and beautiful little girl was dirty, her braids were loose, and her face was stained with dust.

    "What happened to the hand?"

    "Just at night, Sister Clear and I were taken to a broken house with a window, and we wanted to escape through the window.."

    Tan Xuqing rambled about a big lesson, and Tan Zheng stood and listened to her finish: "It's so powerful, I almost don't need everyone to save it, when you go back, your classmates will probably become your little brother when you hear it, and you can write it in the composition next time. got high score."

    "I don't write this in my composition!"

    Tan Xuqing is not the type of girl who is too timid. Just now she suddenly experienced this thrilling incident and finally saw her brother. Later, she was afraid and aggrieved. After talking back to Tan Zheng, her emotions slowly dissipated.

    "They said that Brother Ren went up the mountain to find you, so you can't call the police first," Tan Xuqing pouted when he saw the wound on Tan Zheng's face, "Have you been beaten?"

    "No, the branches are drawn."

    Tan Zheng's gaze unconsciously turned towards Ren Zhaoyuan.

    It took less than ten minutes to drive down the road from the top, and Ren Zhaoyuan kept ignoring him.

    I didn't even look at him when got out of the car.

    Tan Xuqing thought of looking for Ren Zhaoyuan when he said this. After turning around, he saw Ren Zhaoyuan talking to Clear, so he pulled Tan Zheng to go there.

    "Brother Ren!"

    Ren Zhaoyuan turned to look at her and touched Tan Xuqing's head: "Are you scared?"

    "No, Sister Clear is here, so I'm not so scared," Tan Xuqing smiled, "You and my brother are too tacit, even asking the same thing."

    Ren Zhaoyuan bent his lips and said nothing.

    Tan Xuqing wanted to hold his hand, but when he felt it was wrong, he realized that Ren Zhaoyuan had both hands wrapped in bandages, so he quickly let go of Tan Zheng and looked anxiously: "Brother Ren, what's wrong with your hand?"

    "fine."

    "How could it be okay, there's blood in here..."

    "It's done," Ren Zhaoyuan took it back indifferently, "I'll look at your hand."

    Tan Xuqing was easily distracted, showed Ren Zhaoyuan his hand, and talked to Ren Zhaoyuan about escaping through the window with Clear.

    Originally Ren Zhaoyuan was talking to Clear, but when they came over, Tan Zheng was two steps away from Clear.

    "Clear."

    Clear returned to his senses and looked up at Tan Zheng, who was approaching: "Mr. Tan."

    Tan Zheng looked solemn: "Thank you for protecting her."

    "It's nothing, it happened to be taken away together, I didn't help."

    "If she didn't know what it would be like, I heard her say it," Tan Zheng thanked again solemnly, "Thank you."

    Clear still said nothing. "Anyone who knew her would do."

    Tan Zheng turned his gaze to Ren Zhaoyuan, who was listening quietly, and to Tan Xuqing, who kept talking. He then retracted his gaze and said something that seemed to have no beginning or end: "Am I being over-hearted?"

    Clear understood.

    She wanted to hide, but it seemed that she didn't hide well enough, so she could only hide from Tan Xuqing, who was simply ignorant.

    "No," Clear said after a moment of silence, "Mr. Tan didn't worry, but don't worry."

    After hearing this, Tan Zheng paused for a moment, then replied, "Okay."

    Tan Xuqing next to him insisted on letting the doctor see if Ren Zhaoyuan's hand needed treatment. Ren Zhaoyuan first said "no" to the doctor. The doctor guessed that too much force on the hand caused the wound to open, but Ren Zhaoyuan was unwilling, and the injury was not an emergency that had to be dealt with immediately, so he followed Ren Zhaoyuan's wishes and said that there was no need to re-bandage.

    The doctor said that Tan Xuqing was relieved, and he thought of the injury on Tan Zheng's face: "Doctor brother, please help my brother to see, his face is injured."

    Tan Zheng subconsciously glanced at Ren Zhaoyuan first, but Ren Zhaoyuan didn't look at him, he just turned to the side, and said to Yao Qiming, "Brother Yao, count the number of those who helped in the convoy, and I'll give it to you."

    After Ren Zhaoyuan went up the mountain, Tong Zhou joined forces with Jin Shiyan below to send out the determined position. Yao Qiming said that a group of his team was nearby and stopped the car not long after.

    In addition to a set of rewards for rescuing Tan Xuqing and Clear, other people who have helped and contributed should be expressed.

    Yao Qiming waved his hand: "Okay, if you don't have any of these, I'll use you to give them."

    "It's not the same thing, I should come out."

    The doctor came over to see the wound on Tan Zheng's face and said that he should disinfect it first.

    "Tan Qing," Ren Zhaoyuan bent down slightly to Tan Xuqing and pointed to Tongzhou, a little far away, "that brother and I will send Clear home first, do you still want to talk?"

    "Ah..." Tan Xuqing originally thought that the four of them had a car, but then thought that her brother didn't seem to drive over.

    She vaguely felt that something was not right, but the nervousness and excitement she had just escaped had not faded, and she had no idea what it was.

    After hesitating and tangled, Ren Zhaoyuan has already made up his mind: "Then you two talk for a while, I'll go first."

    The doctor disinfected the wound on Tan Zheng's face and cut out a piece of gauze. Tan Zheng got up and didn't let him continue: "No need."

    Clear didn't talk much with Tan Xuqing: "I'm going back."

    "Okay, then I'll go home and send you a message, bye."

    Tan Zheng froze.

    Ren Zhaoyuan's mobile phone was still with him, and was placed on Jin Shiyan's car.

    Clear was already on his way to Ren Zhaoyuan, so he might not be able to get it in Jin Shiyan's car in time, so Tan Zheng had to put his phone aside first and go to Ren Zhaoyuan.

    Before it was near, Ren Zhaoyuan had already got into the car.

    Tong Zhou also got into the car, and Tan Zheng called out Xing Yi, who was about to go around to the other side of the car: "Brother Xing Yi."

    Xing Yi stopped to look at him.

    "Please bring a bottle of water to Zhaoyuan, he has a bad throat."

    Xing Yi nodded, indicating that he understood.

    After getting into the car, Xing Yi first took a bottle of water and handed it to Ren Zhaoyuan behind him. Tong Zhou didn't wait for him to fasten his seat belt, and kicked the accelerator far away.

    Tan Zheng came over and a few people could see it, so why did Xing Yi suddenly hand over a bottle of water? There is no need to say more.

    Ren Zhaoyuan held it in his hand and didn't move for a while, Xing Yi fastened his seat belt: "He said your throat is uncomfortable."

    Tong Zhou glanced at the rearview mirror: "what's wrong with your throat?"

    "No."

    Ren Zhaoyuan twisted it open and took a sip, the dry blood in his mouth was diluted a bit, and the burning pain in his throat was much relieved, but the discomfort felt like rubbing on a rough sandpaper surface when swallowing it was too obvious. .

    The bottle cap was screwed aside, Ren Zhaoyuan's voice was only lower than usual, and he couldn't hear anything unusual: "Clear, you take two more annual leave, don't rush to the Design Park, if you want to go out to play, pay attention to safety."

    Paid vacation is of course a good thing, but taking 20 days off at a time is too exaggerated, Clear said, "It doesn't take that long, a week is enough, thank you Brother Ren."

    Ren Zhaoyuan didn't insist, and planned to ask the finance department to make up the other days into the salary card as overtime, and asked, "Is it better to give you a car of the same model or discount it?"

    Clear's car was driven away by the person who tied them, and they should be able to get it back. They can drive as usual with new glass and paint.

    Ren Zhaoyuan didn't agree: "Then I will discount it at the original price and transfer it to your card. How to deal with it is up to you."

    It's no different from sending her a car. She wasn't injured, and even if she paid more for her mental damage, it wouldn't cost one-tenth of the amount.

    Without waiting for Clear to refuse, Tongzhou received a call to mention Ren Zhaoyuan, interrupting the conversation between the two.

    It was Zhao Chen, he was going to rush here, but something happened and he had to turn back halfway.

    Originally, I saw Ren Zhaoyuan in the group saying that he had found someone, so he was relieved to take care of himself. Now, when he saw a series of questions that stopped abruptly without answering, he realized that something was wrong, and called Ren Zhaoyuan, but it was Tan Zheng who answered.

    Say it's settled, don't worry. With the cell phone at his place, Ren Zhaoyuan and Tongzhou Xingyi are together. If there is an emergency, you can contact them.

    No one who has been in business for a long time is not a human being.

    Zhao Chen opened his mouth and asked, "What happened to him and Tan Zheng?"

    Tong Zhou just said: "Zhaoyuan is fine, we'll take another little girl back now, we're driving, let's talk later."

    Knowing that there was someone else in the car, Zhao Chen didn't ask any more questions, and hung up after a few words.

    There is no reason to tell Ren Zhaoyuan's private affairs in front of others, Tongzhou endured not to mention Tan Zheng all the way, and Xing Yi, who doesn't like to talk, would not take the initiative to speak.

    But Clear could feel that Ren Zhaoyuan and Tan Zheng were different from usual.

    too obvious.

    Usually, as long as two people appear in the same picture, even if they don't talk or get close, the occasional eye contact and knowing smile can make onlookers feel a special atmosphere that belongs only to the two of them.

    Clear felt it, but didn't think much about it. Whether the two of them were sweet or noisy together, it was someone else's private matter, and it had nothing to do with her.

    But Tan Xuqing didn't think so.

    How about the love life of her two older brothers can reach a level of importance to her.

    "Why are you quarreling?" Tan Xuqing picked up the co-pilot's back and bombarded Tan Zheng's ear, "How did you make Brother Ren angry? You didn't coax you after the quarrel. You didn't take the initiative to say a word for so long just now. Do you want to wait for Brother Ren to take the initiative to find you?"

    Tan Zheng was already upset, but now she was arguing with each other: "Sit down, don't worry about it."

    "I don't want to worry either. What can I worry about if you don't make Brother Ren angry, it's not you."

    "Okay," Tan Zheng threw his cell phone to her, "call my parents and say to go back tomorrow."

    "Can I go home today?" Tan Xuqing didn't dial immediately, his voice was a little lower, "Brother, I miss Mom and Dad."

    Tan Zheng turned his head to look at her, and promised in a warm voice, "Okay, I'll take you home after lunch."

    Jin Shiyan sent them back to Ren Zhaoyuan's residence.

    Nobody at home.

    Before coming back, Tan Zheng called Tongzhou and asked Ren Zhaoyuan what he wanted to eat. The phone was never in Ren Zhaoyuan's hands, and Tongzhou said they were eating outside.

    The empty water glass was still on the table.

    Tan Zheng stood for a few seconds and asked Jin Shiyan, "What to drink?"

    "Is there anything iced?"

    "The refrigerator is there, take it yourself."

    Tan Zheng took the water glass to the kitchen to wash it, and his eyes fell on the package of granules next to him that he had not had time to collect.

    When Tan Xuqing came back, he went to the cloakroom and took clean clothes to take a shower. There were only the two of them outside. Jin Shiyan did not avoid it and asked directly, "Is Ren Zhaoyuan angry?"

    "Well," Tan Zheng held the package in his hand and lowered his head, "I'm so angry, I don't want to pay attention to me."

    "Normal, there's no way that the two of you won't be arguing or making trouble together, let's coax him, it's fine if he's not afraid of you."

    "afraid?"

    Jin Shiyan saw that he really didn't understand, so he put the two cans of drinks in his hand on the countertop and chatted with him.

    "Let me ask you, how long did it take you to know that Wang Yue asked Ren Zhaoyuan to replace Tan Qing, to when your plan to keep Ren Zhaoyuan at home took shape?"

    Tan Zheng was startled.

    "Half a minute? No," Jin Shiyan gestured to the outside. "From the sofa to the door, I was in such a hurry at the time, and it took only ten seconds to take a big step. You can't think about it when you get to the door."

    "You should figure out what to do when you see the information, and then go to the bathroom under the pretext of going to the bathroom, thinking about the distance from the sofa to the bathroom, thinking about how to make Ren Zhaoyuan stay, how to make him believe that someone has been found, and how to make me cooperate with you immediately. When contacting me in the bathroom to send a message, I can still think of what to do next so that I can prepare people."

    "Ren Zhaoyuan doesn't know about these, he just says he knows," Jin Shiyan pointed to the packaging in Tan Zheng's hand, "You said it was in the kitchen before, but you could immediately think of it, not only did you think about it, but also didn't reveal it. The traces are played in front of him, and let him drill down your sleeve."

    "My little sister is holding it in someone else's hand. You can do it like this. I feel like you are not a person when I stroke it with you now."

    After speaking, he felt that the meaning was not quite right, and Jin Shiyan added: "I didn't scold you."

    "To be honest, the relationship between the two of us is so hard. Sometimes I think it's fortunate that I'm not your enemy when dealing with difficult things in the business field. If you change your timidity, you must be on your guard."

    "The same reason, you are telling Ren Zhaoyuan clearly now that you lied to him not because you couldn't do it, but because you didn't do it."

    "One day if you want to do it, you can do it flawlessly and play him around."

    "Of course, it's still divided. Look at me, I know that if you want to deal with me one day, I will definitely not be able to deal with you, but I believe in you. The same is true for Ren Zhaoyuan. If he trusts you, he can accept it, otherwise he will not be able to live his life. Pass."

    "That's why I said, it's good that he's not afraid of you, don't ask too much."

    Tan Zheng was speechless for a while.

    Jin Shiyan thought about what he said at this time, it seemed like a little bit of salt to the wound, and cleared his throat: "Maybe Ren Zhaoyuan didn't think about this at all, I saved others by myself, don't think about it, it's time to coax, this will happen. You must be the first to coax people."

    "Um."

    "By the way, I will send Tan Qing back in the afternoon, don't send it."

    "Need not."

    "Don't you feel relieved that I will go out in person? Besides, you are like this, you can't bear to stay for a night when you go home? You have to run the night when you let go of people and go back. Yesterday, I stayed up all night before thinking about other things, my sister. I'm not worried about being in your car."

    Tan Zheng wanted to send Tan Xuqing back by himself, because he was worried about others.

    In the past, Tan Xuqing's pick-up and drop-off had always been handed over to the driver.

    But now that something has happened, even if it has been resolved, still can't relax.

    He didn't take good care of Tan Xuqing.

    They didn't protect Ren Zhaoyuan well.

    Jin Shiyan had nothing to worry about when he sent him off. He had Ren Zhaoyuan in mind, and he really couldn't stay for one night and come back.

    "Thanks."

    Jin Shiyan saw that he was still listless, and gave him a suggestion: "What a big deal, everything that is good for a person is a trivial matter, what are you worried about. Didn't you learn a lot of dishes? Make a table and ask his friends where they are going directly. Take it, it's pitiful, you should be soft and kneeling when you come back, the face is for outsiders to see, who knows when the door is closed."

    Tan Zheng was silent for a few seconds, then took another bottle of iced drink and took a sip. When he tasted the lemon flavor, he suddenly felt astringent, so he put it down and didn't touch it again.

    "Do you think I look like someone who wants to save face in front of him?"

    Jin Shiyan choked up: "Count me in a load of nonsense."

    "I don't even dare to say anything..." Tan Zheng rarely mentioned his relationship in front of Jin Shiyan. He wanted to hide everything related to Ren Zhaoyuan, but now he couldn't help it.

    Panic.

    "I'm afraid to insist on talking to him, and I won't want to ask for me."

    Jin Shiyan has never heard Tan Zheng speak in such a tone since the day he met Tan Zheng.

    If it was another guy, he would definitely open his mouth and say, "There are thousands of good people, if you can't do it, change them quickly".

    But this is Tan Zheng.

    As Tan Zheng said, he will hang on the tree of Ren Zhaoyuan in his life.

    What can do?

    Jin Shiyan sighed: "Don't think about the bad, it's not that serious. Even if he really said it, he said he didn't want it? Don't agree. It was so difficult at the beginning to be able to catch up. Now that you have the emotional foundation, you can still do it. indefinite?"

    "If he says no, then it's over," Tan Zheng focused on the ring at the base of his ring finger, "Actually, it wasn't that hard for me to chase him."

    Jin Shiyan was happy: "It's not difficult for you to endure for more than ten years? Why are you calling it difficult? Tell me about it."

    "For more than ten years, I did it myself, not him. I chased him, but I didn't actually do anything, and he didn't need me to do anything."

    "He is," Tan Zheng paused, unable to think of a word that could sum up Ren Zhaoyuan, "Emotionally, he is someone who insists on what he wants and what he doesn't want."

    "What he wants, if the other party doesn't have it, no matter how good it is, he won't be able to impress him. If he doesn't want it, if the other party wants to force it, no amount of methods can make him accept it."

    Jin Shiyan believes this, and Zhao Yuanqing is a living example.

    Although Jin Shiyan didn't look down on Zhao Yuanqing, he actually didn't think that someone outside was a sinner. He really saw it too much.

    commonplace.

    When people have money, power and freedom to a certain extent, few people can control their lower body, especially men.

    Even if he is a man himself.

    The more primitive the instinctive desire _ the more difficult to restrain.

    All kinds of men and women are lined up for you to choose from. Just take out a few pieces of paper and throw them out, coaxing you to serve you from the inside out in a different way, without causing any trouble or talking nonsense, and no one will know if the night passes.

    There are very few people who can withstand the temptation of "absolute perfection".

    To be honest, if it wasn't for someone his grandfather and father found outside,

    give birth

    He hated the piles of bad debts since he was a child, and now he can't really be a good husband from beginning to end.

    "Zhao Yuanqing" is everywhere.

    But rarely meet a "Ren Zhaoyuan".

    Jin Shiyan knew that it was not uncommon for someone to get married because someone outside the other party had an uproar, but few divorced as soon as they found out.

    Tan Zheng said that Ren Zhaoyuan "will not accept anything he doesn't want", which is true.

    Jin Shiyan thought of the first half of the sentence: "So you can be together because you have what he wants?"

    "Um."

    "I didn't catch him, he chose me."

    Ren Zhaoyuan doesn't want much, but complete love and firm and long-term company.

    There are very few who don't, except for one dead line, there are only three points of conflict.

    deceive, design, coerce.

    They have all been listed to him one by one, and he has sworn to assure them.

    Perhaps, Zhao Yuanqing also promised before.

    But in the end, Zhao Yuanqing touched the bottom line that must not be touched, and he touched all the rest.

    Jin Shiyan didn't know there was such a layer.

    In fact, he felt that it was normal for Ren Zhaoyuan to be angry, and it was normal for two people to quarrel even if they broke up.

    But after all, people are different.

    He didn't know how much Ren Zhaoyuan cared about this matter, but he just felt that if it was to the point where he could compare Zhao Yuanqing, then it was no wonder Tan Zheng panicked like this.

    Hard to do.

    "elder brother"

    Tan Zheng didn't let go of Tan Xuqing's business, when he heard this, he hurried out: "What's the matter?"

    Tan Xuqing stood at the door of the guest bedroom with one hand still holding the door open: "In the room, come and see."

    Crooked cabinet drawers, broken custom models of ancient buildings, broken glass dust covers all over the floor.

    Also, blood.

    Tan Zheng saw the tie on the ground, saw blood everywhere, and saw a mess everywhere.

    He never asked why Ren Zhaoyuan appeared, and why his hands were covered with bandages.

    Until he walked into the bedroom and picked up a particularly abrupt glass on the floor.

    Dried blood covered it all red.

    Now it was in the palm of the hand, and it was dyed with new red.
