The Plow

But Zhen Shulan didn't raise that hand in the end.

A few minutes ago, he might have done this, but now he already knows that Ling Shu is not a fuel-efficient lamp.

This frail-looking young man could threaten the lives of his men with an arm around him.

In a hurry, it is not yet known what the other party can do.

People without strength have no negotiating value. Once they have the corresponding strength, Zhen Shulan, who is as proud as Zhen Shulan, will rethink the positioning of the other party.

"Since you have already guessed it, I will not hide it from you. Although my little sister is smart, she is still a girl after all. She has gone away and there is no news. Although the old man at home is angry, we are also afraid of her. Something happened, so I want to ask you for a favor."

He asked for others, and reluctantly lowered his figure.

It's just that Lingshu is still holding the members of Zhen's family in his hands, and the four of them are standing side by side, swords drawn, this request seems a bit ridiculous.

Ling Shu: "Mr. Zhen, I'm afraid you really found the wrong person. I don't have much contact with Ms. Zhen. On the contrary, it's her extraordinary attention to me that makes me a little strange. Last time I was sick and hospitalized, thanks to Ms. Zhen's respect, Come and visit me herself, and she said one thing to me then."

Zhen Shulan asked closely: "What's the matter?"

Ling Shu: "She said that she fell in love with a married man and wanted to elope with him, but the other party's identity is sensitive, and his reputation might be damaged if exposed, so she used me as a shield. She also said that she was going to elope soon , fly away, and break off the engagement."

Zhen Shulan sternly said, "Nonsense!"

Ling Shu: "Am I talking nonsense? You should know better than me. Why did Ms. Zhen disregard the crowd of young talents at the birthday party and would favor me so much and invite me to the first dance? You don't know, do you? I guess you must have asked Ms. Zhen afterwards, and she will definitely tell you that she likes me very much, and maybe she will tell you that she fell in love with me at first sight. And you will definitely reprimand her and investigate me ,Right?"

Zhen Shulan didn't answer, but his uncertain face already showed the answer.

Ling Shu smiled.

"After your investigation, you must have found that I am just a non-threatening little person. Perhaps Ms. Zhen just took a fancy to my face on a whim. After the reprimand from the Zhen family, she is likely to settle down, and you also think When she heard it, she relaxed her vigilance, and who knew something would happen."

Zhen Shulan's chest rose and fell.

He really had murderous intentions just now.

If the news of Zhen Congyun's elopement with a man spreads out, the Zhen family's reputation will definitely be discredited. Even if other aspects are not affected, Zhen Congyun's marriage will definitely fail. , and brought him back, but the Zhen family mobilized their staff to search for two days and two nights but failed to find him. Zhen Shulan remembered the intersection of Zhen Congyun and Lingshu, so he went to the doctor in a hurry and came to ask someone.

Unexpectedly, the sister's whereabouts were not found out, but the other party set out the truth.

Zhen Shulan soon discovered that even if Ling Shu was killed, it was useless. The news of Zhen Congyun running away from home was not a secret in the Zhen family. Affecting and reducing losses is the most important thing.

Ling Shu is a smart person, since he can deduce this, maybe there is a way to find someone.

After figuring this out, Zhen Shulan finally completely gave up her plan to use force and the Zhen family's influence to make the opponent submit.

"I'm sorry, I was rude just now. My sister's whereabouts are unknown. I feel anxious. Please forgive me. If it is not convenient for you to let us visit tonight, I will go to the city police station tomorrow to visit Mr. Ling and Mr. Yue. I don't know if it's convenient or not?"

Ling Shu said: "Tomorrow I will go out with Chief Yue, and it will take ten and a half months to come back. Why don't we meet at the waiting room of the train station at seven o'clock tomorrow morning."

Zhen Shulan thought for a moment, and readily agreed.

Only then did Ling Shu let go of the Zhen family thugs who had been pinched by his neck.

The opponent suddenly lost his strength, staggered two steps forward, and almost fell down.

Zhen Shulan thought he was ashamed, so she didn't even bother to take a look, and turned to get in the car.

The car was not in a hurry to start. After the gunman got into the car, he got out of the car again and walked towards Ling Shu after a while, offering an envelope with both hands.

"Mr. Ling, the third master of my family is very sorry for the matter of talent, and he ordered me to come here to make amends. A small courtesy is not a respect, so please accept it."

Judging from the thickness, there should be a lot of money in the envelope, at least a few hundred dollars.

Ling Shu smiled and was not polite to him.

"Then thank you, Mr. Zhen, for me. If every time I make amends is so meaningful, I don't mind him being rude again next time."

The other party smiled awkwardly and hurried back to the car.

Under Ling Shu's watchful eye, the car quickly turned around and left without returning.

When Ling Yao heard that he was going on a long trip with Yue Dingtang, he really didn't have any doubts. Instead, he told him to listen to Yue Dingtang more and not to make up his own mind about everything. escaped by falling asleep.

Early the next morning, before dawn, he quickly packed his luggage and got out of the house, lest his eldest sister wake up and be naughty again.

Yue Ding Tang booked the first class carriage.

The waiting room of the first-class car is different from the ordinary waiting room. After all, it costs three times the price of the ticket. The waiting room is also like a western restaurant, with tablecloths, flowers, coffee and snacks.

Ling Shu had never sat in a first-class train, but this time he was lucky.

Yue Dingtang is a person who doesn't like being late, so he arrived earlier than Ling Shu.

When Ling Shu arrived, he saw him and Zhen Shulan drinking coffee at the same table.

Generally speaking, people who did not buy a ticket would naturally not be able to enter the waiting room, but this would not trouble the third master of the Zhen family.

Although Zhen Shulan was holding coffee in his hand, his expression was not very relaxed. When he saw Ling Shu, he immediately straightened his back and almost got up.

Ling Shu walked over quickly carrying the suitcase, and spoke first before the other party could speak.

"I have one thing that Ms. Zhen left behind last time. I hope it can be helpful to you."

He took the jewelry box out of his pocket.

Zhen Shulan frowned, and her color changed slightly.

Inside was a diamond ring.

Undoubtedly, given its size and brilliance, it was valuable and difficult to counterfeit.

"Miss Zhen left this ring when she came to visit me last time. I didn't know it at the time, so I planned to return it to her after the next meeting. I didn't expect that she never came again, and it happened to be returned to Zhao. However, since she The ring can be thrown to me. This person who doesn't have a deep friendship and can't even be called a friend must be very resistant to his marriage."

Zhen Shulan's face turned blue and then pale, and then turned pale and blue.

After Zhen Congyun disappeared, so did the engagement ring, and the Zhen family couldn't find it anywhere, but they didn't expect that she would throw it away to Ling Shu long ago.

You must know that the value of this ring is not only in itself, but also in the marriage between the Zhen family and another family.

"I heard that the two of you are going to the northeast." Zhen Shulan said.

Yue Dingtang: "That's right. I'm very sorry about Miss Zhen's matter. I wish you all can find her as soon as possible. It's time for us to get in the car now. We will not accompany you. Let us leave."

"Wait," Zhen Shulan took a step forward.

He was more polite to Yue Dingtang than to Lingshu.

"I have something to ask for your help."

Yue Dingtang didn't speak, he looked down at his watch, his rejection was very obvious.

Zhen Shulan smiled wryly: "3 minutes, please give me 3 minutes, it's just a small favor, it won't delay Mr. Yue's business."

Yue Dingtang: "Speak."

Zhen Shulan: "My sister was young and ignorant, she was deceived by others, coupled with the impulsiveness of young people, she made a mistake. If you two see her on the way to the Northeast, please tell her that the family misses her very much. Please come back as soon as possible. If she doesn't listen, please stabilize him first, and then inform us that the Zhen family has a shop in Fengtian, so we can immediately send people to escort her back."

Yue Dingtang pondered: "Your sister is also an adult, and she has the right to make decisions on her own. It may not be appropriate for us to intervene in this matter. It is still okay to inform her whereabouts."

Zhen Shulan: "Thank you so much. I will write you the address of Zhen's shop first. If you need it, you can go there at any time. I will tell the shopkeeper to entertain you two!"

Seeing that Yue Dingtang had no objection, he quickly took a pen and paper to write down the address, and handed the piece of paper to the other party.

Ling Shu was reduced from a leading role to a supporting role, and seeing Zhen Shulan politely escorting them to the car, he couldn't help but joked: "This is really different from the majestic Third Master Zhen last night!"

Yue Dingtang said: "This matter does not seem to be that simple."

Ling Shu brushed off the dust on his clothes, his movements were careless, but his words were astonishing.

"The person who eloped with Zhen Congyun must have gone to the northeast."

Yue Dingtang: "Not bad."

Ling Shu: "Then we don't care about this matter. If we see someone, do we really want to inform him?"

Yue Dingtang glanced at him and dragged his tone.

"Speaking of which—"

Ling Shu clicked his tongue twice: "Old Yue, Lao Yue, I understand that you have cultivated a serious face all these years, but in fact, your bad stomach is still the same as back then!"

When Zhen Shulan approached Ling Shu last night, she should have known that Ling Shu had nothing to do with Miss Zhen's disappearance, otherwise Ling Shu would not have stayed in Shanghai after Zhen Congyun's disappearance, commuting normally.

That being the case, it's too late for the Zhen family to spread their hands around to find Zhen Congyun's whereabouts, so why did Zhen Shulan come here early in the morning and wait at the train station, just to hear Ling Shu's irrelevant clues, and to get rid of Zhen Congyun's whereabouts? The two of Ling Yue stopped by to find someone?

Judging from Zhen Shulan's hesitant reaction to his sister's elopement, he must know something, but it's inconvenient to say it. It concerns the reputation of the Zhen family, so it's not appropriate to have shallow words with Ling Shu and the others.

Then there is only one explanation -

Zhen Shulan had known for a long time that Yue Dingtang was going to Fengtian for his uncle's funeral, and Zhen Congyun was probably heading northeast, and maybe she was in Fengtian now.

The Zhen family is located in Shanghai or Jiangsu and Zhejiang, or they can speak well, but if they leave this area and go as far as the northeast, it is beyond their reach. Even if there is a store business there, they must be cautious and low-key, because that The complexity of the place far exceeds that of Shanghai.

The latter's several forces are mixed, but they can maintain a delicate balance. In the northeast, the tentacles of Manchuria have already penetrated in all directions.Under the ice, even if there are repeated surges, it can only be done quietly.

Since Zhen Shulan had something to hide, Yue Dingtang must also have some reservations.

Whether to help or not, just to put it this way, if you really see Zhen Congyun, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, and the other party may not be willing to go back with them.

In Ling Shu's view, Ms. Zhen has a big idea. This elopement has been planned for a long time, at least at her birthday party, she has already made up her mind. Those who leave the family and leave alone must not be ordinary people.

The Zhen family is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and Miss Zhen is not. Ling Shu felt that he really wanted to see what kind of Miss Zhen could do outside, but don't be a delicate and calculating daughter. The hairy phoenix is ​​gone.

Aside from this episode, the journey on the train is memorable enough.

At present, there is no direct train from Shanghai to Fengtian, so we can only take the Shanghai-Nanjing Railway to travel from Shanghai to Nanjing.Then take a ferry from Nanjing across the natural danger of the Yangtze River, get on the Jinpu Railway on the other side of the Yangtze River, take the Jinpu Railway from Pukou to Tianjin, and finally from Tianjin to Fengtian.

The journey is not only long, but also tortuous. If ordinary people go to school in Beijing and their hometown is in the south, it will take three or four days to go home. Some areas in the south of the Yangtze River do not have trains, so they can only take boats or walk.

However, if you only travel between big cities, have a lot of money and are not in a hurry, you can sit in the first-class carriage every time like the Fourth Young Master Yue Ding and Tang Yue.

The first-class carriage not only has a separate toilet and dressing room, but also has red-purple suede seats. There are three or four chairs sitting in a circle, with a wide distance, which is convenient for fellow guests to chat and chat in the car. Freshly picked flowers are placed in the carriage. At both ends, once the iron door is closed, the hustle and bustle of other places will be isolated, and the faint fragrance of flowers can still be smelled.

As for food and beverages, they are naturally equipped with both Chinese and Western food, as well as fine wines, which cannot be compared with ordinary carriages.

If traveling in a third-class car is torture, then in the first-class car, it is an enjoyable experience.

What's more, Ling Shu didn't spend his own money, the food and drink along the way was all paid by Yue Dingtang.

They went all the way from Shanghai to Nanjing, crossed the river by boat, and then set off from Nanjing to Tianjin. Lingshu never stopped to grope in the carriage, either to the bathroom, or to the dressing room, or even A train attendant saw his curiosity, thought it was his first time on a train, and offered to take him to another carriage.

For others to look around like this, with the curiosity of a country bumpkin, I am afraid that some people will despise him, but when it comes to Ling Shu, people can't help but want to take the initiative to help him.

It is so different from person to person.

"Sir, there are vacant seats over there, and the scenery is good. Why don't you sit over there and I'll bring you a cup of coffee?"

The train conductor suggested to Ling Shu softly, the smile on the corner of his mouth never disappeared, for fear of frightening the handsome young man by speaking loudly.

Yue Dingtang lowered his head to read the book, the plot was getting exciting, he didn't bother to talk to Ling Shu, let him toss around, as long as he doesn't disturb himself.

Ling Shu got up and sat at the place the conductor said. In fact, this place is not much different from the original place, and the scenery outside the window has only changed direction. There are as many fields and forests as there should be.

They have already seen a lot of different scenery on the way from Shanghai to Nanjing. If they really want to change, at least after crossing the Yellow River, they may be able to see the white snow on the top of the mountain in the distance when they pass by some places. white snow.

But Ling Shu didn't reject the conductor's kindness, he chose to sit here, holding a cup of freshly brewed coffee, ready to close his eyes and meditate.

A scream suddenly sounded!

Comparable to the train whistle, almost breaking through the sky.

The meaning of fear in it makes people shudder and shudder!

In the carriage, everyone turned around following the sound.

This scream came from the dressing room of the first-class carriage!

The conductor was on his way back from the dining bar to bring sugar cubes to Ling Shu, and happened to be a short distance away from the dressing room. The scream made his legs go limp, and the sugar cubes in his hand rolled to the ground in pieces, four times spread.
