Pick up an abandoned child and overwhelm the world

"Don't worry, I will never delay!" Cheng Ning hurriedly promised: "I will definitely not delay, don't worry, cough, cough, cough..." Cheng Ning was probably too excited, and even said that He coughed again, and Wen Jing beside him was so frightened that he patted him on the back and handed him tea. After Cheng Ning took a sip, his complexion recovered. Before Yeluqi could speak...

"Okay!" Yeluqi said with a smile, reached out and patted Cheng Ning's shoulder, and said indifferently: "I just want to tell you that I have already made my own arrangements, so you just need to take good care of your body." , isn’t it just a formal process? I have my own way. Don’t forget that the ceremony of “Chasing Suicheng” has the final say. I am the most assured thing, don't worry about anything else, I have it!"

"But……"

"Master Keqing told you to rest, so you should rest well and don't make any trouble!" Xu Xun stood up as he spoke behind him, and he was speaking to Cheng Ning, but most of his eyes kept falling Behind Yeluqi, his eyes were full of responsibility, and he didn't forget to use his body to distance Cheng Ning and Yeluqi, and at the same time he said politely to Yeluqi: "Your Honor Don't worry, my lord, he is my friend's apprentice, if the friend is not here, I, the elder, will definitely take care of him, so don't bother you!"

I don't know why, at this moment, Xu Xun and Yeluqi are just a normal conversation between two gentlemen, but at this moment, even Cheng Ning can feel that Yeluqi has a kind of unnaturalness that can't be said, just like... ...It seems that facing Xu Xun, he has an inexplicable anxiety?

Cheng Ning was about to speak, but Yeluqi over there didn't give Cheng Ning a chance to speak at all, and said Shi Shiran directly: "Well, of course, then..." Yeluqi bowed his hands politely and said with a smile : "Then everyone, please stay, we will take our leave first!"

Turn around and leave.

"Uh...then I'd rather be respectful than obedient..." Cheng Ning hurriedly expressed his opinion, but the other party didn't even turn his head, as if he didn't hear it, Cheng Ning was stunned and had to signal Wen Jing to see him off .

"Hey, hey, wait, wait for me..." Liang Hui didn't know whether he had been forgotten, or if he was frightened by Yeluqi's sudden farewell, he hurriedly put down his food and drink, turned around and chased after him, but Just two or three steps after chasing him, he stopped abruptly, turned his head to look at Cheng Ning, blushed and said, "Also, um, what... You, you remember to tell Cheng Wei that we will do it. He said it, let him stop picking on us!" After speaking, he turned around and continued to catch up with Yeluqi and his followers who were about to step out of the threshold of the house...

"This child..." Cheng Ning laughed, and when he was about to speak, he was suddenly shocked by the person beside him and said: "Senior Xu?" Xu Xun suddenly didn't know what was going on, and suddenly An afterimage flashed away, and when it stood at the gate, blocking the three people in the room, the other people were startled, Cheng Ning was even more shocked and hurriedly chased after him, and said worriedly: "Senior Xu, you are..."

"Is it you?" Suddenly, without waiting for Cheng Ning to finish speaking, Xu Xun said in a hoarse voice to someone he had been watching.

"puff--"

The sound of a burden falling to the ground suddenly sounded, and Shi Yuan, who had been lowering his head, dropped the thing in his hand at this moment, and immediately reacted, bent down to pick it up, and continued to hold it in his arms without saying a word , and even lowered his head slightly, as if he didn't see Xu Xun's gaze staring at him, he continued to stand stiffly behind his master.

That's right, since Xu Xun stepped into the room, the place where Xu Xun's eyes have been falling intentionally or unintentionally is the place where Shi Yuan is!

Cheng Ning only took a few steps forward, and was stunned by the change at the moment. He looked at Xu Xun's expression that was no longer hiding at the moment in disbelief, and forgot to think for a while...

"Zhixu..." Xu Xun called out almost tremblingly, with a trace of panic, a trace of helplessness...more fear and uncertainty: "Yes, is that you? Is it really you? You... You have always been by my side, you have been chasing Suicheng all these years, and you have been watching me, right? You..." Xu Xun couldn't help but walk away past……

"Young Master Xu!" Yeluqi took a step forward and directly blocked Xu Xun's way, his cold and handsome face was full of coldness: "Please don't disturb my people, Shi Yuan is my follower, he I have been by my side since I was young, and I also took the name Shi Yuan, so please don't disturb my people, can you?"

Being blocked by someone, Xu Xun had no choice but to stop. He usually looked at someone who was similar to him, but Xu Xun had a very bad expression on his face at the moment. Looking at Yeluqi, he asked with a sneer, "Your person?" After finishing, Xu Xun seemed to be stimulated by something, pointed to Shi Yuan behind Yeluqi and said, "Okay, he is your man, so please tell me, why is his wrist wrapped with gauze?"

"Hehe..." Yeluqi sneered, "He has gauze wrapped around his wrist, what does that matter to you?"

Xu Xun was almost blocked and speechless, but he still maintained his demeanor and said: "If I remember correctly, he started doing this more than ten years ago..."

"Then what does that have to do with you, an outsider?" Yeluqi said with a sneer, "It's just a personal hobby, how lenient are you? Let alone you, an outsider, I'm his master. It doesn't matter whether gauze is wrapped around his wrist, if he likes it, he can do whatever he likes, I don't care as the master, can you, an outsider, Mr. Xu care?"

Taking a deep breath, Xu Xun's hands in his sleeves were trembling, and he said hoarsely, "I really don't care..."

"That's it?" Yeluqi continued with a sneer, "Don't disturb Mr. Xu's New Year greetings, we will meet later!" After finishing speaking, Yeluqi walked around Xu Xun and finally followed with Shi Yuanhe behind him, but he still kept up Looking back at Cheng Ning, Liang Hui, who was hesitant to speak, continued to leave together with the servants they brought outside the door while Wen Jing saw off the guests.

Xu Xun froze on the spot and didn't dare to move again, and he pursed his lips tightly and didn't say anything more, but at the moment Shi Yuan walked past him, Xu Xun looked sideways slightly and deeply. Looking at his profile, he opened his thin lips and asked in a low voice: "The wound on the wrist...does it still hurt?" The two of them could hear the low voice, so they didn't except the one who had been staring at him closely. Xu Xun suddenly found that at that moment, Shi Yuan's whole body trembled inadvertently, and at that moment, Xu Xun clenched his hanging hand tightly into a fist, and then suppressed himself from being able to reach out to hold that hand. The impulse of the person's arm, and then watched the person pass by with his shoulders, go away and disappear...

"Senior Xu!" Cheng Ning finally came over at this moment. According to etiquette, but also out of personal feelings, he wanted to send Yeluqi out of the gate, but it was very reluctant for him to come to receive him today. Second, Cheng Ning was really frightened by Xu Xun. When he came to him, he looked at Xu Xun, whose face was bloodless. Over the years, only when he was drunk, when Cheng Ning happened to bump into him, would he show his gaffe. Xun couldn't hold back his expression at this moment, and Cheng Ning was so frightened that he hurriedly asked, "Is this... what? Shi Yuan, what's wrong with him? Why did you call him "Zhi Xu" just now?"

The word "Zhixu" sounds familiar to Cheng Ning, but I can't remember exactly where it seems to have been mentioned by someone?

"Xiao Zhixu..." Xu Xun murmured, "It's the one I brought back, my partner, the one who disappeared in Xiaozhu Suishan..."

"!!!" Cheng Ning finally remembered, many years ago, the Spring Festival when Mu Jingan disappeared, he went to find Xu Xun, who was having a good time, and Cheng Ning took him back to Xu's house, and then this person tossed the whole time One day, when Cheng Ning returned to his room at night, Jiang Feng once said this name to him, but at this moment, Cheng Ning was so shocked that he could barely keep his mouth shut. Looking at the direction Yeluqi and his party left, he said carefully after a while: " Wait, isn't Shi Yuan...isn't Young Master Yeluqi's entourage? Didn't you meet him many times when you were invited to the City Lord's Mansion? If he was Senior Xiao, how could you not recognize him? This... Is it unreasonable?"

Xu Xun began about six or seven years ago. He rejected the invitation to the annual banquet of the City Lord's Mansion. He made it clear that he didn't like it. He used to go because Mu Jinqian was there. Now that Mu Jinqian is gone, there is no point in wanting to go. The government no longer invites him, so he also ends up at leisure!

Xu Xun's gaze never looked back, and he said in a low voice after a while, "I've always watched from a distance, never looked at it closely, and..." Xu Xun frowned and said: "Back then Zhi Xu was with me, he doesn't look like this..."

"Has he changed his face?" Cheng Ning asked in surprise.

Shaking his head, Xu Xun continued: "I don't know, but..." Xu Xun said, his eyes suddenly lit up. When I came in, I accidentally glanced at his figure, and suddenly found that he was standing The figure in the shadow is exactly the same as Zhi Xu, and then his wrist..." Xu Xun turned his head and looked at Cheng Ning excitedly and said, "His wrist was seriously injured before, and it left a scar at the beginning. The scars that are not easy to heal are very deep and long, as you can see, his wrists have been wrapped with gauze, and when I think about it now, the gauze wrapped around his wrists seems to have started more than ten years ago, and I am even more What is certain is that I just called his name, and his reaction was too great, so, I, I, I can be sure, it is him, it is him, it is him..."

"Okay, okay, it's him, it's him, but..." Cheng Ning looked at the excited Xu Xun and said in surprise: "Then why is he Shi Yuan? Why is he Yeluqi's follower? If it is true, Why did he come to you? If so, why did he leave you again? Based on what I know about Yeluqi, if he knew that Shi Yuan had a sweetheart, he would support him, so why did he take him back? Don’t you think that’s the case? Is it more serious?"

The expression on Xu Xun's face that had just been ignited immediately began to collapse, and then gradually turned pale, until finally, Xu Xun suddenly turned to look at Cheng Ning and said, "I... seem to understand what Zhi Xu said ten years ago. If so..."

Cheng Ning was startled, ten years ago?

"The year my master... left?" Cheng Ning said in surprise, and then looked at Xu Xun and said suddenly: "Wait, senior Xu, back then... didn't you say that when I left my master?" I went to find your partner, so why is he in Luxing Town? Did you see him at that time? Did something else happen at that time?" Cheng Ning looked at Xu Xun's slightly frowning brows, complicated and painful Cheng Ning's heart sank, "Senior Xu, I'm not young anymore, shouldn't you tell me what happened back then?"

"..." Silently looking at Cheng Ning, who has worked hard to live, raise children, and deal with all kinds of rich and powerful people for decades, and has become more and more unfathomable, Xu Xun struggled for a while. Fan, sighed and said, "Let's talk about it in another place!"

A while later, in Cheng Ning's other garden, where there were only two people in the study, Xu Xun watched Cheng Ning finish drinking a bowl of medicine, and watched his face turn slightly rosy because of the warmth in the room, and finally he was silently relieved. Tone, fiddling with the teacup one after another, smiled helplessly and said: "I'm sorry, the past ten years... have worked hard for you..."

Cheng Ning was puzzled, then relieved, shook his head and said with a smile: "Where is it? You have helped me the most by teaching Wei'er very well. Why do I pay the senior to take care of the younger? I thank you It's too late, why do you still think you didn't take care of me?"

"When Mu Jingan left, he entrusted you to me..." Xu Xun said slowly, but he sighed: "But I have been in the past ten years... Oh, forget it..." Xu Xun shook his head not wanting Mentioning his decadent and boring life, he sat down for a while and said to Cheng Ning: "It's time to tell you what happened when we were in Luxing Town..."

As he spoke, Xu Xun slowly talked about the past...

It happened to be the Spring Festival 11 years ago. Xu Xun has a complex network of relationships in some aspects, Cheng Ning and even Mu Jinqian can't imagine it. Ever since Xiao Zhixu disappeared, Xu Xun has never given up the idea of ​​looking for him. , but Xu Xun made the best use of his network, and did not find any clues. Until the New Year's Eve night of this year, when Xu Xun and a few people in the house finished the vigil and were about to go to bed, they received an In the Feige letter sent by his subordinates in Lu Xing Town, there is only one sentence on it: Mr. Xiao appeared in Lu Xing Town.
