"Shen Kuo, wait a minute, this girl... looks familiar."

Wu Qiang stood up after speaking and walked towards them.

Lu Yan shifted her gaze to the side, and noticed that Shen Kuo's hand on her shoulder was slightly tight, and subconsciously swept her to her side.

Wu Qiang and Zhao Shen led people over, looked at the girl behind Shen Kui, and said with a smile: "It's so familiar. She was there at the fire scene that day. She seemed to be standing with Lu Zhen's stinky boy. Is it possible? His girlfriend?"

Seeing that Lu Yan had been recognized, Shen Kui immediately took her to the front, pulled the hair beside her ear with one hand, and held the back of her head with the other hand, pretending to be looking at her.

The movements were a bit rough, and Lu Yan felt that the scalp on the side of his ears was hurt.

He broke Lu Yan's face and looked at it for a few seconds, then turned around and said, "Oh, I know this girl."

Wu Qiang looked at Shen Kui, with a deep meaning in his eyes: "Xiao Shen, do you know her?"

"Lu Zhen's younger sister is a mentally retarded child. She was abducted and sold before and was only recently found."

Lu Yan understood Shen Kuo's meaning, and quickly hid behind him, holding his arm to pretend to be afraid, shivering.

"Fool? Doesn't it look like?"

Zhao Zhi walked over and looked closely at Lu Yan. Without realizing it, Lu Yan picked up the wine glass beside him and splashed his face with wine.

"Hahaha!" She clapped her hands and laughed: "It's so fun!"

Even Shen Kui was taken aback.

The girl's hot personality was exactly the same as Lu Zhen, and she suddenly got into trouble, obviously for revenge. But... the acting is actually quite online, pretending to be mentally retarded.

"Damn, this fool..."

Zhao Shi was splashed with alcohol on his face and was very upset. He stepped forward and grabbed Lu Yan: "I'm tired of life!"

Lu Yan hid behind Shen Kui, revealing a big black eye, staring at him defensively, like a child.

Wu Qiang is not as simple as Zhao Chen. He has been observing Lu Yan's demeanor.

"There are not many fools who come to the dance hall to play." He sneered and said, "Shen Kuo, are you sure she has a brain problem? She has heard everything we just said."

Shen Kui asked him back: "What did we just talk about?"

Wu Qiang grinned.

He knew that Shen Kui was a smart guy, and he had to be extremely careful when dealing with him.

"Since this silly little girl has come to our dance hall, we must do our best to serve as a landlord and entertain you."

After Wu Qiang finished speaking, he winked at the men around him and wanted to take Lu Yan away.

Lu Yan hugged Shen Kuo's arm tightly and whispered, "Uncle Shen..."

Shen Kui heard that this girl was really scared.

"It's also called Uncle. It seems like a fool." Zhao Shen laughed and looked at Shen Kui: "Shen Kui, there are so many people here, you see that she just hugs you and doesn't let go."

Wu Qiang half joked: "Don't be jealous, who made us Little Shen look beautiful? Look at the little flowers next to me. When you see him coming, all of them have straight eyes, and the hungry wolves. Seeing fat meat."

Shen Kui smiled lightly, and put his hand on Lu Yan's face, and pinched her cheek like a mischievous: "Otherwise, how can I be a fool, who doesn't know the relationship between Lao Tzu and his brother."

Wu Qiang said to his opponent: "Take her to the private room. Anyway, she is a fool, and she is not afraid of her going out and talking nonsense."

"It's not necessary, Brother Qiang."

Shen Kui sighed at him and said: "Her dad Lu Jian is not easy to provoke. Let's do business and make money with peace. There is no need to make enemies with the Lu family just to be happy for a while."

Wu Qiang played with an empty porcelain cup in his hand, hesitated for a moment, and judged his intention in his words: "It's okay to let her go, but to be on the safe side, it must be tested to see if she really doesn't understand anything."

Shen Kuo's eyes flashed: "How to detect?"

Wu Qiang lit a cigarette, and then brought the cigarette butt close to Lu Yan's face: "Since I'm a fool, I'm naturally not afraid of breaking the picture."

Lu Yan could feel the scorching heat of the cigarette butt approaching a little bit, her big black eyes blinked, her face was innocent and calm, as if she didn't know what they were doing.

God knows, her heart is about to collapse.

The cigarette butt burned to the face must be broken... But the current situation is that if she doesn't hold on, she will probably not be able to save her life.

These guys are not good stubbles, they can do terrible things like arson, killing people is nothing to them, right!

Lu Yan's heart was a desperate decision of "the wind is slack and the water is cold", who let her...the prisoner's hands today.

As long as these guys can be brought to justice, they will lose their appearance. The big deal... The big deal will be done later, let Lu Zhen pay, and arrange the best medical beauty for her!

At the moment of the moment, Shen Kui took away the cigarette butt from Wu Qiang's hand and pressed the cigarette butt on the back of his hand with his backhand.

With a sound of "noise", the flesh was burnt.

Wu Qiang was caught off guard by the high temperature and screamed while holding his hands.

Shen Kui pulled Lu Yan's wrist, clutching her and rushing all the way into the chaotic crowd in the ballroom.

Wu Qiang reacted and yelled at the men at the door: "Stop them!"

Several men rushed in front of Shen Kui and blocked his way. Someone even took out a knife.

Shen Kui was very good at protecting Lu Yan, and "greeted" the group in twos or twos.

Lu Yan was panicked and frightened, seeing nothing in the chaos, and stumblingly followed him out.

Passing through the narrow stairway, the two ran out of the chaotic dance hall. The muddy breath mixed with tobacco and alcohol was instantly replaced by the fresh air after the rain.

Shen Kui pulled Lu Yan's wrist hard and ran wildly towards the end of the entertainment street.

Wu Qiang's men also chased them out, looking at this posture, they didn't intend to let them go.

Of course, can't let it go, they are holding Wu Qiang's handle in their hands, and they are bound to die tonight.

Lu Yan didn't have enough physical strength. After running for almost one kilometer, she leaned on the wall and panted: "I can't do it, Uncle Shen, I... I can't run anymore, just leave me alone."

Shen Kui glanced back, pulling her into the dark alley beside her.

The alley was extremely narrow and could only accommodate one person. Shen Kui pressed Lu Yan firmly against the wall, pressing her hot body, and submerging her entire petite body in his arms.

The gang chased them all the way, looking around, looking for the two of them, but they didn't notice the narrow alley.

Lu Yan's back was against the uneven wall, and Shen Kuo's hard chest was in front of her. She felt that she was about to be squeezed into a bun.

Shen Kuo's hand pressed the back of her head, pressed her face to his chest, and carefully looked sideways at the alley.

The group of brainless chasing men seemed to have run away, but Shen Kui didn't let Lu Yan go.

She turned her face away with difficulty, looked at the alley, and asked in a low voice, "Are they gone?"

Shen Kuo's face was low and did not answer.

Lu Yan felt the low air pressure hovering around him, and looked up at him in surprise: "Shen..."

Before she finished her words, Shen Kui suddenly grabbed her collar and pressed her against the wall forcefully.

Lu Yan's back was hit hard against the uneven wall, and she screamed—

"It hurts! What are you doing!"

There was a slight anger in Shen Kuo's dark coffee-colored eyes, his hands firmly grasped her collar, and he said cruelly: "Who the hell let you go to such a place!"

"I...I'm here to find you."

"Who told you to come to me!"

Lu Yan did not understand why Shen Kui was suddenly so angry, and hurriedly defended: "I want to return the hundred to you, I..."

The words got stuck in her throat, because she felt...Shen Kuo's body was trembling slightly, and his muscles were trembling.

He seemed very scared.

Lu Yan has never seen Shen Kui look so scared. He is Shen Kui, that man with a vicious mind and a vicious mind, and that man who never believes in fate or heaven. Does he have time to be afraid?

Think about it, too, it was really dangerous just now, almost dead, normal people would be afraid.

Lu Yan stretched her hand around his waist and patted his back gently: "Uncle Shen, don't be afraid, it's all right."

Shen Kui was hard all over, but his heart softened.

God knows how scared he just saw Wu Qiang treating her like that.

He once dug a hole in the soil in his heart, and buried all his sincerity, love, longing...all.

He saw people talking, talking nonsense when he saw people, and dancing with exquisite long sleeves, but just now, all of his disguise was blasted in place.

No matter what, Wu Qiang burned her face with a cigarette, and Shen Kui wanted his life...

At this moment, Lu Yan didn't know that Shen Kui was worried about herself. She thought he was just frightened by those people, so she gently patted him on the back and comforted him: "It's okay, it's okay, don't be afraid."

"Lu Yan, let me go."

He has a low voice.

Lu Yan let go of him obediently, the alley was narrow, and the two people stood together a little cramped.

Lu Yan's gaze was on Shen Kuo's chest. Even if she was wearing clothes, she could see the undulating muscle lines underneath through the thin fabric.

Lu Yan turned his face sideways, just burying it in his neck.

In my breath, there was the smell of moist moss and stone walls in the alley, the faint smell of tobacco from the man, and the smell of Chinese medicine on his clothes...mixed together, slightly jerky, but not unpleasant.

When the two people stood together at such close distances, the atmosphere gradually began to become more subtle. Inexplicably, Lu Yan's cheeks and even earlobes began to burn.

The air is humid and hot.

Shen Kui swallowed, his Adam's apple rolled, and he made a slight swallowing sound, which was especially clear in the quiet alley, with an ambiguous taste.

The man couldn't stand the stimulus, and walked away.

Lu Yan caught up with him: "Uncle Shen, where are you going."

"go home."

"No, I have something to do with you."

He didn't stop, and walked far by himself. Lu Yan had no choice but to catch up quickly.

"Shen Kuo!"

"Don't follow me."

When night was coming, Shen Kui turned around and walked through several tunnels, returned to his door, touched the key from his bag with one hand, and opened the door.

Lu Yan followed him all the way to the door of the house.

Shen Kui closed her door with a "bang" as if he hadn't seen her.

Lu Yan was startled by the sound of closing the door, and shrank back.

It's already very miserable to eat a closed door, but at this time, it's raining again in the sky.

The heavy rain was accompanied by lightning and thunder.

Lu Yan hurriedly hid under the eaves, tiptoe, and stood close to the root of the wall as much as possible to prevent the raindrops falling from the eaves from getting wet with his clothes.

So unlucky...

The sky was sullenly pressed, the surrounding tube buildings were all lit up, and the fragrant food wafted over.

Lu Yan swallowed and covered her flat lower abdomen, her stomach was already groaning.

In the room, Shen Kui clutched his arms, took the medicine cabinet from the shelf, and walked to the table.

I looked up and saw the girl outside the window standing awkwardly under the eaves. The eaves are very narrow, and her trousers have been wetted by rain.

Shen Kui was silent for a moment, but finally couldn't bear to open the door of the room.

The door opened a crack, and after waiting for a few minutes, Lu Yan did not come in. Shen Kui couldn't help but went out to look around, and saw that this girl turned out a broken umbrella from some corner.

The frame of the umbrella was rusty and cracked. After being opened, half of the umbrella cloth was still slumped, and she couldn't take care of so much, so she rushed directly into the heavy rain.

"you come back."

Lu Yan turned around and saw Shen Kui standing by the door helplessly.

Her feet tremblingly stepped out and pulled back.

"Enter the house."

Shen Kuo's voice was concise and powerful, and after speaking, he turned and went back to the room.

Lu Yan hesitated for a moment, and entered the room slowly. There was only a white and bald light bulb hanging in the room, because it was rainy and it was not dark yet, but the light was very dark.

The room is small, and the furniture and items are tightly placed, making it very cramped.

There was a faint smell of Chinese medicine in the humid air. No wonder Lu Yan always smelled the bitterness of medicine on Shen Kui, thinking it was an illusion.

There are also some medicine capsules on the cabinet. It can be seen that there are patients in this family.

At this time, a deep cough came from the inner room, and a thin man walked out tremblingly, hissing and asking: "Small, who's here?"

"classmate."

"Oh, entertain your classmates."

Lu Yan called out politely: "Hello, uncle, excuse me."

"Okay... classmates stay for dinner."

After Shen Jianxun said this, he suddenly saw the medicine cabinet on the table and asked in amazement: "Small, what are you doing with the medicine cabinet?"

"Drenched in the rain, take some cold medicine."

Shen Kui took the medicine box, pushed Lu Yan back to his room, and closed the door.

"Stay in the house."

"okay."

Lu Yan nodded obediently, looking around Shen Kuo's room——

His room is relatively narrow and there are not many things. Outside the sliding window is a black wall covered with moss and mildew, which makes the whole room very depressing.

There is a desk by the window that looks like a hand-made wooden desk, which looks very old, so the edges are polished smooth and smooth.

There is no bookshelf, and the table is full of books. There are not many books. They are all textbooks. The only supplementary material for teaching is the "Comprehensive Analysis of Mathematics for College Entrance Examination" secretly sent to him by Lu Yan.

Unlike other textbooks, the book was well protected by him. It was not curled or folded. It looked like a new one, but on the opened page, many notes were written densely.

Both people's eyes fell on the book at the same time, and then they glanced at each other tacitly.

There was another coughing outside the door, and Lu Yan asked him, "Daddy Shen is not in good health?"

"Um."

"Then I will leave when the rain stops, don't disturb him to rest."

When Shen Kui saw the girl's bangs sticking together because of the rain, she stood awkwardly at the table, looking very well-behaved.

The rain outside is getting heavier and heavier, and it seems that it will not stop for a short time.

He turned around, ready to pour her a glass of water.

At this moment, Lu Yan suddenly noticed that the color of the sleeve of Shen Kuo's right arm had darkened a lot. She walked over to touch it in surprise and found that it was wet.

There is blood on her palm.

Lu Yan whispered: "You bleed!"

Shen Kui opened his sleeves. Just in the confusion, his right arm was slashed, and a piece of flesh and blood came out.

Lu Yan said eagerly: "I will take you to the hospital!"

"Need not."

"Why!"

"I don't want to go."

Since he was a child, he has not been to the hospital several times. He has a headache and has a headache. It costs a lot of money to register in the hospital to get medicines for filming.

Shen Kui turned his back, took off his clothes and threw them aside, preparing to deal with the stab wound on his arm by himself.

Lu Yan couldn't help much, and couldn't persuade him, so she could only stand by and watch.

He turned around, leaving only his back to her.

The firm and tight muscles on Shen Kuo's back are completely different from those reckless muscular men that Lu Yan has seen in the gym. His muscles are accumulated through years of labor and are full of strength.

The way he handled the wound was very rough. He directly poured alcohol on the wound. Although the wound was not too deep, he saw blood anyway, so he poured alcohol directly on it. It didn't hurt to die!

Lu Yan didn't even have time to stop him, his body was trembling slightly from the severe pain, and fine sweat particles ooze from his forehead.

"are you crazy!"

Lu Yan ran over, wiped the alcohol and blood on his arm with clean gauze, and said eagerly: "It must be painful..."

How could it not hurt, Shen Kuo's lips were pale.

"Sanitize," he hissed.

"I haven't seen disinfection who sprinkled alcohol directly on the wound! You can go to the hospital if you don't know how to deal with it!"

"I don't want to go." Shen Kui opened his eyes and said weakly, "It's all right."

Lu Yan blamed him for stinging, and wiped the area around his wound. Then, she searched for the Yunnan white ointment that was used to stop the bleeding in the medicine box, and used her fingertips to smear him on the wound little by little.

Because she was afraid of hurting him, she would get close when she applied the ointment, gently blowing on the wound.

Shen Kui felt the cool breeze over his arm skin, thin and itchy.

Lu Yan bandaged his arm. Although she was not professional, the wound was not deep, so it shouldn't be a serious problem.

"If you get sick or injured in the future, you still have to go to the hospital."

Shen Kui didn't respond, he stared at her for a long time.

Although she looks like Lu Zhen, she has a little natural dullness between her eyebrows and her eyes. Whether she speaks or does things, she is serious.

It seems that she is so good to everyone.

Shen Kui never knew that it would be such a soft feeling to be carefully taken care of by a girl.

Since the only woman in the family left, Shen Kuo's life has been cold and hard for more than a decade, and he has never felt a bit of softness again.

And Lu Yan was taken care of and loved since he was a child, and she would never take care of others. She had a carefree temperament, let alone the kind of considerate and delicate girl, but inadvertently, she gave him all her gentleness...

Shen Kui is like a kid who has tasted sweets for the first time. He is very greedy and wants to take her exclusive share.

This girl is really innocent, if he uses some means, it might not be impossible to take her as his own...

But this crazy idea is only fleeting.

She was as beautiful as the dew on the grass after the rain, and he couldn't bear to have the slightest trace of defilement to her.

After all...not good enough.

Shen Kui was absorbed in his emotions, but Lu Yan remembered what happened just now and asked him: "Did you know it a long time ago, it was Wu Qiang and the others who set the fire."

Shen Kui was taken aback for a moment and nodded. He has always had doubts in his heart, but it has just been confirmed.

"Then...you still drink with them."

Shen Kui looked at the little girl filled with righteous indignation, and smiled lightly: "Finally remembered to ask the teacher?"

Lu Yan grabbed his sleeve and pulled it out: "You have to go to the police station with me to report the crime and testify for me. I heard them say that it was set on fire."

Shen Kuoman said casually: "I don't want to go."

"why?"

"I only promised Lu Zhen to find out the real culprit. Now that the real culprit has been found out, how to deal with it is Lu Zhen's business and has nothing to do with me."

"But... if you don't help testify, the police won't believe me."

Who would believe what a fool said.

Lu Yan thought that Lu Zhen hadn't lost his underwear during this period of time, and finally caught the culprit, and must not let those guys get away with it again.

Feeling aggrieved and embarrassed, she sat cross-legged on Shen Kuo's bed and said shamelessly: "I...I won't go!"

Shen Kui fell on the bed and lay beside her: "I don't want to go, you can sleep with me tonight."

"You!" Lu Yan was really mad at him: "Who wants to sleep with you, you old thing!"

Shen Kuo's left arm swept over, and her rough fingertips clamped her jaw, making her mouth pouted.

"Uncle Shen is also an old thing, so what's the misunderstanding about my age?"

Sometimes he really thinks that this girl is a fool, but sometimes she looks clever and unpredictable.

Lu Yan muttered, "It was originally."

Counting the two-eighth classics, he is almost one round older than her, okay!

"Don't worry if you don't help, I'll call the police myself."

Lu Yan got up and pushed open the bedroom door. Seeing Lu Yan coming out, Shen Jianxun repeatedly said, "Classmate, stay for dinner. I just called the restaurant to bring food over."

"Ah, don't bother uncle!"

"No trouble, no trouble, you sit down, and you'll have dinner right away."

Shen Jianxun's mental state has not been very good, and he is very happy to have a rare visitor at home.

Shen Kui came out and said, "Sit down, and then leave after eating."

Dad Shen called "Takeaway", and Lu Yan naturally had no choice but to stay.

...

The rain stopped at eight o'clock.

Lu Yan felt very embarrassed. Just let Shen's father entertain her so expensively, so she should eat as much as possible and don't disappoint others' enthusiasm.

Dad Shen looked like an honest man, with a hearty speech, and easy to get along with, but his face was not good, and he looked like he had been sick for many years.

"We don't have many friends, and no female classmate has ever come to our house, cough cough cough..."

Before he finished speaking, he coughed violently again.

Shen Kui hurriedly went out, poured water on his father, and patted him on the back to give him comfort.

"Dad, go and lie down on the bed."

"Sure, then I'll go into the room and rest for a while, so I won't disturb your chat."

Shen Jianxun crouched and went back to the room to lie down. Lu Yan and Shen Kui stood in the living room, looking at each other.

"What's wrong with Uncle Shen?" she asked curiously.

"pneumoconiosis."

Lu Yan knows that this kind of disease will be contracted if he is exposed to polluted environment for many years and his lungs absorb too much dust.

"Uncle's previous job was..."

"Cement factory worker."

"Oh."

No wonder.

This kind of disease is very difficult to treat, and there is basically no possibility of recovery.

This home exudes a strong smell of Chinese medicine, and even Shen Kuo's body is stained with a bit of bitterness of Chinese medicine. want to come, because of the long years of boiling medicine.

At this time, Lu Yan's cell phone rang, and the caller was Lu Zhen, asking her why she hadn't come home so late.

Lu Yan didn't dare to say that she was at Shen Kuo's house, but just said perfunctorily that she was eating at a classmate's house, so he didn't worry about it, and that's it.

Lu Jian has been away on business for many years, and the cynical Young Master Lu almost assumed all the responsibility of taking care of Lu Yan.

The eldest brother is like a father.

Sometimes Shen Kui has to admit that Lu Zhen is actually not bad, especially affection. To his family, to friends, and to lovers, he is too good to say anything.

but...…

The grudge between him and him is by no means easy to turn over.

When Lu Yan was leaving, she stood by the door, holding her last hope, raising her head and asking him: "Really...can't you help me testify?"

Shen Kuo's rough fingers touched her forehead, pushed her out, and said every word: "Never expect me to do anything for Lu Zhen."

Lu Yan turned around disappointedly and watched Shen Kui close the door.

She could actually understand that Lu Zhen had the fault first, and because of his wealth and power, he had always bullied Shen Kuo.

It is also natural for people to be unwilling to help.

Beside the screen window, Shen Kui watched the little girl gradually disappear into the alley covered by street lights.

He was silent for a moment, took out a repeater with recording function from his bag, and put it on the table slowly...

Silly girl, there is no evidence to tell the ass.
