I'm not a theatre god

"A stalker of the Golden Triangle..."

After reading the contents of the file, Yang Xiao, who was sitting in the passenger seat of the speeding car, said thoughtfully, "Sounds like a difficult role."

"I seem to know why he surrendered to the 'Emperor'." Chen Ling spoke slowly, "It is simply wishful thinking to eliminate the national borders with one person's power, but if there is an 'Emperor' who aims to unify the two realms, I guess Nie Yu I will follow him without hesitation... Regardless of his historical record or his own potential, Yingfu definitely has the qualifications.”

"An enemy with conviction is the most terrifying. It seems we should find Su Zhiwei as soon as possible and protect her."

Chen Ling stepped on the accelerator to the bottom, and as the yellow taxi flew out against the rising sun, the outline of a city in the distance appeared in front of the two of them.

He glanced at the map navigation on his phone and spoke calmly,

"We're almost there."

About half an hour later, the vehicle slowly stopped on the side of the road.

Chen Ling and Yang Xiao got out of the car and glanced around. This place was not a commercial core with many high-rise buildings. Basically, what they saw were short houses with white walls no more than three or four stories high. Several creeks crossed the bridges. A row of thin willows swayed in the wind on the shore.

"Dr. Su's family background doesn't seem to be very good?" Yang Xiao asked doubtfully, "Is this considered a countryside?"

"Village? Have you ever seen a village with a house price of 60,000 yuan per square meter?"

"???How many?"

"This is the city center of Suzhou, and it is also the best-preserved old city." Chen Ling glanced at Su Zhiwei's address on the map, and the corners of her mouth twitched slightly.

"It seems that Dr. Su's family is quite prosperous..."

The next road was basically in alleys, which was not suitable for driving, so the two of them walked according to the map. After passing through an old street scenic spot, they finally stopped in front of a house next door to the scenic spot.

Looking at the three-meter-wide vermilion door in front of him and the word "Su Mansion" on the door, Yang Xiao's mouth opened wide unconsciously...

"This is Dr. Su's home? It's right next to the scenic spot? Is it so big?"

Chen Ling confirmed the address again and again. This was the right place. He walked straight to the door of the house and knocked on the door with the ring on the doorknob.

Dong dong dong——

After a short wait, the door of the house slowly opened back. An old woman in her fifties or sixties stood behind the door, frowning and looking at the two of them.

"who are you?"

"Hello, we are friends of Dr. Su." Chen Ling glanced behind the door, "Is Dr. Su at home?"

The old woman hesitated for a moment, then closed the door and said:

"Hold on."

Chen Ling and Yang Xiao stood outside the door, unable to observe what was going on inside through the crack in the door. However, judging from the old woman's actions, Su Zhiwei was probably at home, which made the two men slightly relieved.

What they fear most is to find the address based on the information, only to find that Su Zhiwei is not at home at all. Then they are back on the same starting line as Nie Yu... Only by finding Su Zhiwei and taking her away in advance can they get rid of Nie Yu. .

After the old woman left, Yang Xiao said with some uncertainty:

"What should we tell Dr. Su later?"

"Tell it truthfully."

"Then what if she doesn't believe it? She has such a big house and she lives here. How can she give up everything and run away with us after hearing a few stories?"

Chen Ling thought for a moment, "Then it's not up to her... Even if she is kidnapped, I have to kidnap her away."

Yang Xiao:......

"So, we now have another kidnapping business?"

"How can this be called binding..."

While Chen Ling was still trying to explain something, the vermilion door was pushed open, and a slim and neat figure was standing behind the door. Surprise appeared on the faces of the two of them.

"Yang Xiao? Director Chen?"

In the courtyard, Su Zhiwei was wearing plain exercise clothes, her long hair was tied high behind her back, and there was still sweat on her cheeks, as if she had been practicing just now...

"Dr. Su." Chen Ling's eyes were full of seriousness, "We need to talk."

Su Zhiwei glanced at the two of them and nodded slightly without hesitation.

"...Come in first."

As the two of them entered the house, Su Zhiwei closed the door and

The breeze blew through the empty house, swaying a few willow trees in the lake in the center of the courtyard, and a few plump red fish swam across the lake, as if they were nothing.

Chen Ling and Yang Xiao stood in the courtyard, stunned for a moment...

Compared with this place, Chu Muyun's Chinese-style house in Aurora City can only be regarded as a poor imitation... Not only is the floor area several times different, but the rockery and scenery are also completely different. Every step you take, you can see the carefully designed garden scene.

After the catastrophe, some things cannot be restored to their original state no matter how hard they try to imitate them. Just as modern times can never perfectly restore the cultural heritage of ancient times, the treasures condensed by countless spiritual civilizations are also buried little by little in the thick history. middle.

Su Zhiwei walked up to the two of them and made a "please" gesture.

"The reception area is over here."

"Dr. Su, this house... belongs to your family?" Yang Xiao asked in surprise.

"It was passed down from our ancestors." Su Zhi smiled, "In the early years, our Su family still had some property in Gusu, but things have changed and it has long since declined, and only this house is left in the family. , regarded as a legacy.

With my salary in the laboratory, I can't afford such a location. "

"Do you usually live alone?"

"There is also an aunt who is responsible for cleaning the house and cooking, but I basically decorate the flowers and plants in the yard myself." Su Zhiwei glanced at the water where the red fish were swimming, the rockery on the side, and the wind on the shore. The flying thin willow continued,

"I really like the atmosphere and style of Jiangnan. If no one takes care of it, it will be a waste of grass. It's a pity."

While talking, Su Zhiwei took the two of them to the tea room on the first floor.

This is a semi-open corridor. The three of them are sitting in the room. Next to them is the sliding door that opens to the courtyard. The gauze-like curtains sway gently in the wind, casting a light layer on the Jiangnan spring scenery in the courtyard. Fog has a hazy beauty.

Although Chen Ling and Yang Xiao didn't know much about architecture or landscape, they could still feel the elegance and sophistication here, which was basically consistent with their first impression of Su Zhiwei...

Su Zhiwei was wearing plain training clothes, sat down at the main seat, and skillfully began to wash cups and make tea for the two of them. She turned her back to the scenery in the courtyard, with a hint of indifferent and otherworldly temperament.

Scientific rationality and romantic sensibility are cleverly integrated in Su Zhiwei, giving people a very comfortable feeling in every gesture.

After a brief silence, Su Zhiwei took the initiative to speak:

"What's the matter with your sudden visit?"
