double burial

In the afternoon, Xiao Xinran and Zhong Lu boarded the plane flying overseas.After traveling for more than ten hours, at two o'clock in the morning, I was already in a foreign country.

In Toronto Pearson Airport, Canada, Xue Ziling was waiting here early.There were not many tourists in this group, among the blond-haired and blue-eyed crowd, Xiao Xinran was dressed in casual clothes, her quiet and elegant demeanor was outstanding, and he could see her at a glance from a hundred meters away.

The long-distance flight did not add much fatigue to her exquisite appearance. Although her complexion was not good, she was much more energetic than the last time he saw her.

Xue Ziling went up to meet him, she also saw him, saw his impatient steps and his warm smile, but still walked forward at a leisurely pace, her gaze fell on him lightly, without even a slight smile alms.

As they got closer, Xue Ziling realized Zhong Lu's existence, his smile froze, he straightened the collar of his suit, and changed the greeting he had prepared: "Mr. Xiao, the journey has been hard."

"Mr. Xue, hello." Xiao Xinran politely stretched out her right hand, and he held it gently, feeling the temperature like ice.

"This is my assistant, Miss Zhong."

He nodded: "Why didn't An Lin follow Mr. Xiao?"

"There are still matters to be dealt with in the company, and the capital injection will be done in these two days." Xiao Xinran replied lightly.

"Shall I take Mr. Xiao to the hotel?" He tentatively asked.

"No need, someone will pick it up." Xiao Xinran refused.

He frowned, as if he was very dissatisfied with her indifferent attitude, but because he couldn't get angry in front of the assistant, he could only maintain a polite attitude and said: "Well, Mr. Xiao, go slowly, we will see you tomorrow. "

"Thanks for your hard work, good night." Xiao Xinran looked into his eyes and gave him the last words.

After leaving the airport, Zhong Lu beside her carried her luggage and followed her into a black car.This was parked here an hour ago. She found out the car keys and got into the cab.

Zhong Lu probably didn't expect that she would drive the car herself, she was stunned for a moment, and sat in the back seat in fear.

Xiao Xinran started the car, first took a slow turn around the airport, and then drove the car on the highway unhurriedly.Along the way, she walked slowly in the night, looking in the rearview mirror from time to time, as if waiting for someone to follow.

Zhong Lu was very puzzled at first, but after thinking about it, she realized that it was probably the woman who followed.Recalling Xiao Xinran's previous actions, she seemed to have already noticed the existence of the woman, but she was unaware of it.

"Mr. Xiao..." There was a long silence in the car, and finally Zhong Lu couldn't bear to speak out.

Xiao Xinran held the steering wheel with one hand, and said calmly, "What?"

"This time... have you really decided?" She pondered.

"If there is no decision, I don't have to come here in person."

"Once this matter happens, it will definitely cause an uproar. I know that I have no right to ask, but now that you have just ascended the throne, the foundation is not stable, and the Xue family is not necessarily reliable. This is definitely not the best time, why bother..."

"Zhong Lu, you've never looked forward and backward like this before." Xiao Xinran interrupted her, glanced at her in the rearview mirror, with a smile on her face, "Could it be that you think this place shouldn't be destroyed?"

Zhong Lu was startled for a moment, then his expression darkened, and he didn't answer.

"This place shouldn't exist, should it?" Xiao Xinran sighed softly, "You, me, and her all have the same idea. But many things in the past are beyond my control. The only thing I can promise to Yours is to let you see with your own eyes that it is completely destroyed."

Zhong Lu raised her head and looked at her calm and beautiful face in the rearview mirror, feeling sour in her heart.

"She doesn't believe me, and you only obeyed me. What happened back then, I was sorry for you. Today, or tomorrow, I will give you an explanation."

"No, you're wrong." Zhong Lu looked at her firmly, "I'm different from her, I can tell the difference between you and the Xiao family. What senior did has nothing to do with you. In fact..." She paused , "If you tell the truth, she will definitely understand your difficulties."

Xiao Xinran smiled lightly, noncommittal.

It's not that she didn't look forward to the day when she and the woman let go of the past, but when she imagined the future, she also knew clearly that it was absolutely impossible to return to the past.When the truth is revealed, all her contributions will become a woman's shackles, triggering a complete collapse of a woman's self-esteem, followed by self-destruction.

She paid so much, but in exchange for her eternal life.When everything is settled, she will weave a perfect ending for this big lie, provide the woman with a reason to forgive herself barely, and then become strangers to her.

Stranger... Thinking of this word, her heart felt bitter.

"Xinran..." Zhong Lu suddenly called her name, she was taken aback for a moment, and then responded softly.

"Since you can't bear it, why don't you keep her by your side, even for a few weeks or a few days...do you have to finish everything in these two days?"

Xiao Xinran looked up at her in surprise. These few words seemed to have nothing to do with the topic just now, but Zhong Lu accurately penetrated the deepest emotions hidden in her heart.

"In this respect, we are all the same people, with the most fatal weakness, Xin Ran."

The car was driving in the night, and there was an extreme silence for a while.Zhong Lu's words seemed to imply something, and seemed to have misunderstood something. She was ice-snow smart, so she could see clearly, but she was unable to pry into her own heart, nor could she delve into it.

"You asked me just now why I was in such a hurry to do it these two days. Our weakness actually exists in her." Xiao Xinran smiled wryly, "Recently, thanks to Cang Yun, she probably has no intention of killing me. It's almost to the extreme. I don't want to embarrass her, and I'm really not sure that I will continue to be safe under her hands."

Zhong Lu was silent.

"She and I are the same people. Our weaknesses can be overcome with our own hands, and we will never be exploited by others, especially the enemy." The implication is self-evident.

The soft words and open heart just now were replaced by a cold and menacing atmosphere in an instant.Zhong Lu's heart sank, she wanted to speak, but she was speechless for a moment, just waiting for Xiao Xinran to make the final sentence.

"After this trip, go do something you like. You don't have to follow me anymore, and suffer from this fear." Probably because she feels guilty for her after all, Xiao Xinran softened her voice again, and gave her the final instructions.

Zhong Lu didn't expect that she knew everything, but she said such a thing, leaving her with a life that she shouldn't have.

After recovering for a long time, she turned her head to look at the night outside the window, and something hot fell down, scalding her skin.Xiao Xinran also remained silent, as if the conversation just now had never happened.

It was past three o'clock when we arrived at the hotel, and the night was extremely short.Early the next morning, she followed Xiao Xinran to a club in the city center.

The clubhouse is located in the business district and occupies a large scale, but it is hidden inside a listed company and is never open to the public. The most sophisticated fingerprint lock system is used together with the access control, which shows that the builder has ulterior motives.

It's just that this so-called clubhouse is far more than a simple clubhouse.

Xiao Xinran's car was parked in the underground parking lot of a building, and she went straight into a private elevator.Although the elevator has not been used for a long time, it is spotless inside, and there are special staff to take care of it regularly, which is very attentive.

The elevator stops on the fifteenth floor.Zhong Lu followed Xiao Xinran out of the elevator and walked into a dimly lit long corridor.The slender figures of the two were reflected on the glass curtain wall, and a piece of black clothes flashed at the end of the corridor. Xiao Xinran glanced back, knowing it clearly.Zhong Lu is still ignorant.

Xiao Xinran stopped in front of a plain black anti-theft door, took off the glove on her right hand, touched the fingerprint lock with her slender white fingers, and the door opened with a sound.

Zhong Lu stood aside, raised her eyes to see Xiao Xinran's upright figure like rain bamboo.The woman in front of her sometimes confuses her.Who would have imagined that thousands of miles away from Qinrong's headquarters, there is a superb and well-trained team working silently for her, and even controlling the fate of the entire group.Sometimes she doesn't come here for years, and there has never been a single mistake here.

Zhong Lu knows Xiao Xinran's methods best. This young leader can make thousands of people fall in love with him, and he can also make people desperate for him, even if he dies.

"Mr. Xiao, long time no see." A handsome man walked out of the door, held the door with one hand, and looked at her calmly, as if he was not surprised by this sudden visit.

Xiao Xinran's gaze stayed on the man's face for a few seconds, and she seemed to sigh: "Ah Xun, you have worked hard." Then she went straight in.Zhong Lu hurriedly followed.The man by the door also followed and closed the door behind him.

Different from the low-key appearance, the interior of the clubhouse is open.With a two-story high roof, there is a huge front hall as soon as you enter the door.On both sides of the corridor are offices separated by transparent glass, and the architectural pattern is exactly the same as that of Qinrong headquarters.

Xiao Xinran walked straight through the corridor, walked to the meeting room at the end, and ordered while walking, "Call them over, I have something to say."

The man replied: "Yes, Mr. Xiao."

In the hotel, Xue Ziling, who knew nothing about everything, was a little restless.Xiao Xinran would suddenly come across the ocean, which was unexpected to him.Although this place is important, Xiao Xinran only comes here once a year or so, as a routine inspection, and he will be sent here every quarter. This state has been maintained for many years without exception.This visit is obviously less than the annual routine time...

Thinking about this year, everything seems to be fine, how could she suddenly not trust herself?What she cared about, he never dared to neglect for a moment, because of emotion and reason, it should not be his problem...

In the conference room, the snowy light poured through the window lattice, covering the tall Xiao Xinran with a layer of soft radiance.The final instructions have been issued, and it seems that some words are needed to end this last meeting, so everyone stood at the table, watching her quietly, and the silence lasted for a long time.

"You are all benefactors of my Xiao family. From now on, it is needless to say that you will be rich and honored. As long as you keep your mouth shut, I guarantee that you will not be treated badly." Xiao Xinran's cold voice broke the silence, but almost caused waves in everyone's heart.

"Mr. Xiao promises a thousand gold, and I will definitely do it." Someone from below said.

Xiao Xinran smiled slightly, with a trace of bitterness on her clean and elegant face: "That's good. You can prepare your luggage in these two days. After two days, someone will send you a plane ticket to take you back home." At this point, she paused , and then continued: "It's been five years, and I owe you a lot. From today on, I will no longer restrict your freedom."

Five years ago, when Xiao Kui succeeded the president and took over the business here, she arranged for this group of people to stay here to observe the movement of the base and control the flow of goods.These 20 people are all Xiao Xinran's confidantes, who made great contributions to her life and death.

"I would like to follow Mr. Xiao and continue to serve Qinrong." After a long silence, someone from below said loudly.As soon as this remark came out, there were many echoes.After living in a foreign country for five years, they had nothing to look forward to except the Xiao family. They wished to serve the Xiao family until their death. After all, Xiao Xinran treated them well.

"So, follow me back to the headquarters, and I will arrange duties for you."

"Yes, Mr. Xiao." The people below replied respectfully.

"Yan Xun and Duan Yi come with me, the others go to work."

A man about the same age as the previous man walked out of a corner of the conference room, followed Xiao Xinran silently, walked out of the conference room, and entered an open office next to it.

"Duan Yi, have you arranged everything I asked you to prepare?" Xiao Xinran sat down at the spotless desk and asked.

"It's all set up. It's military explosives. A friend in the army got it before. The safety factor is very high."

"You are a blasting expert. In your opinion, what should be done with the traces left after the explosives detonated?"

"Pull soil to fill it up, and then create signs of forest fires. I'm ready, don't worry." Duan Yi gave her a smile that was enough to make her feel at ease.

Xiao Xinran didn't say anything, just nodded lightly: "Go and get busy."

After Duan Yi left, she and Yan Xun were the only ones left in the office.She stood up, raised her hand and rubbed between her brows, as if she wanted to say something.Sensing this, Yan Xun took two steps forward and stood closer to her.

"I've heard about An Lin's matter. The deceased is gone, so don't be too sad, Mr. Xiao."

Xiao Xinran raised her eyes and looked at him seriously, the corners of her eyes were slightly red, as if they were moistened by something.

The companionship since childhood made Yan Xun understand her better than others.He knew how strong and forbearing she was, and it was extremely pitiful for such a person to show a little weakness.He stared at the light red in the corner of her eyes, and sighed softly, "Xinran..."

"I'm sorry for you."

"how come--"

"You must live well, Axun."

"Yes."
