Small universe of the last days

When Kang Chi woke up, he saw the person he wanted to see. He was overjoyed. His face was still pale, but his smile at this time was a bit pitiful: "Brother He, did you peel this apple for me?"

He Chengshuang finished peeling the fruit at a faster speed and handed it to him. Kang Chi hit the snake with a stick and asked, "How can you eat it when it's so big? Don't you cut it for me?"

He Chengshuang paused, laughed inexplicably, and with [-]% patience, cut the apples neatly into slices and put them on the plate and handed them to him. If you are not satisfied, I can only call someone else to serve you."

Kang Chi would not want a third person to disturb them, he was so happy to see Ye Qingrang not around.

Kang Chi moved his body and half sat up, took the plate and began to eat slowly, wishing he could eat a few pieces of apples for a whole day, so that He Chengshuang wouldn't leave all night.

After swallowing two pieces of sweet apples, Kang Chi still couldn't help asking: "Why are you being so nice to me all of a sudden? I'm not used to it."

He Chengshuang asked him back, "What do you think?"

"Does it even matter? You must be the one who knows what I'm doing. You almost died in order to help you stop Nie Chao. Even if you are a stubborn rock, you should soften your heart a bit, right?"

Seeing that He Chengshuang didn't look too happy, Kang Chi hurriedly added: "I don't want to use this matter as a bargaining chip, I just want you to understand that I am not only pestering you, but also helping you when you need it." pay."

He Chengshuang cleared his throat and said, "I came here to make it clear to you that there is no need for us to meet again in the future."

Kang Chi was stunned for a few seconds, the fruit slipped off the fruit fork and fell back into the plate, Kang Chi suddenly threw the thing in his hand to the ground, straightened up and said angrily: "He Chengshuang! What do you mean?" Then he showed a look of sudden realization, He replied: "You must be scared! You are attracted to me, you are afraid that you will feel sorry for Ye Qingrang and abandon him, aren't you?"

"No one can change my feelings for Qing Rang. I love him more every day." He Chengshuang stared straight into Kang Chi's eyes, his eyes were full of seriousness, "The reason why I am willing to be here with you I speak because I hope you will find your way back as soon as possible."

Kang Chi avoided He Chengshuang's gaze, and said with a straight neck, "I don't think I'm going astray!"

"That means you are still very naive, and you can't tell the wrong way." He Chengshuang let out a breath and continued, "Kang Chi, you are attracted to me because you and I are all the same way."

"What do you mean?"

"We are all paranoid, and we don't make too much sense in things, and it's the same when we like someone. The biggest thing in common is that we like to go to extremes when things happen. For example, your actions towards Nie Chao are very similar to what I used to do. "

"Isn't it good for two similar people to be together? Isn't it okay to live vigorously?" Kang Chi sneered, "When you were the boss of smuggling in Yunnan, when you were fighting evil in Shennongjia and the imperial tomb, when you were in the Liuli Pagoda When suppressing the smelly monk, when destroying the Thousand Chance Stone outside the district, when being arrogant in a place I don't know, why don't you think it's not good to go to extremes?"

"It's hard for you to investigate carefully, so you like me at those times, don't you?" He Chengshuang's tone was still light: "But Qing Rang doesn't like these very much."

"That means he is cowardly, he dare not stand by your side!"

"He was worried that I would ruin myself." He Chengshuang sighed, "If there is no him, it will only be a matter of time." After saying this, He Chengshuang suddenly stood up and approached Kang Chi, bent down and said in a low voice: A wild horse has no reins and will rush to the cliff. Although the horse doesn’t care, it will die after all. Qing Rang is my reiner, and I want to carry him to see more scenery.”

The nurse looked in frequently from the outside. Although he couldn't hear the communication between the two, he was always paying attention to the movement.He Chengshuang took a step back and left his last advice: "Kang Chi, you are a wild horse like me, and you are also sick like me. When you were planning to find a sick friend to live in a foolish way, I have already found a doctor. You are a Smart man, I wish you the best of luck in finding a lover."

Watching He Chengshuang leave, Kang Chi didn't say anything to persuade him to stay. When Ding Shaohua came back, the nurse had already cleaned up the wreckage on the ground, and only Kang Chi was left lying on his side with his back to her, watching the scenery outside the window.

Ding Shaohua lightly pressed the corner of the quilt for him, and then he heard Kang Chi suddenly ask: "Mom, what do you think of He Chengshuang?"

Ding Shaohua paused, moved his chair and sat down, and asked softly, "Do you want to hear mom tell the truth?"

"Ah."

"In terms of personal strength, I'm afraid no one in the world can surpass him, but Mr. He is unruly and unruly, so it's inevitable that he will be overwhelmed."

Kang Chi turned around, sullenly: "I don't see where he broke up."

Ding Shaohua said happily: "He has Dr. Ye as his confidant and good friend to help him, so he can't easily break it."

"Mom, you know that I'm asking about He Chengshuang and me, and you say this on purpose."

"Does it need to be said? Isn't it just that you are messing around again and making trouble for others."

"mom!"

"Look, you're not happy after I told you." Ding Shaohua took out an apple as if to peel it for him.

"Don't do it, it's an apple again, I'm not happy to eat it!"

Ding Shaohua sighed: "With your character, if you say you like Dr. Ye, your mother can accept it, but Mr. He will not. You don't want to see your mother die young, do you?"

Kang Chi snorted, and turned his face again: "Is it as bad as you said?"

Ding Shaohua stroked his son's soft hair, and said with a smile: "At least your eyesight is not very good. If you like men and women, mother doesn't care anymore. I'm afraid that you will suffer if you admit the wrong person."

Kang Chi was silent for a while, then said slowly, "I won't hold him any longer."

Back at the residence, Hua Hanzhang was sitting decadently on the sofa in the living room.Ye Qingrang smiled and said, "What's the matter?"

Hua Hanzhang opened his eyes when he heard the words, and said angrily: "Qing Rang, you are too dishonest, you would rather run out with Kang Chi than call me!"

Seeing his attire, with his hair combed neatly behind his head, Ye Qingrang knew that he had just escaped from Hua Mingrui's entertainment, and couldn't help laughing: "Isn't it good to eat, drink and make friends all day long? Your father Finally, I value you."

Hua Hanzhang couldn't help swearing: "What a fart, who made Hua Ming and Hua Anliu not live up to expectations, and now he is only at the fourth rank. Of course he is going to make a play with me, the only son of the fifth rank."

He Chengshuang turned his head to look, and asked, "Where's Lao Jiang?"

"I went to train with Xiao Cao."

He Chengshuang nodded: "The two of them are both fifth-level soil system cultivators, and it will be beneficial to learn more from each other."

It's not that Hua Hanzhang doesn't know, but he just murmured: "I don't see anyone all day, and I don't have much time to spend together when I go back to Beijing."

Ye Qingrang asked knowingly: "Then why don't you ask him to accompany you to handle dinners big and small?"

Hua Hanzhang said with a strange smile: "Farewell! Didn't you see that when he came to those occasions, he was like a big fat sheep joining a pack of wolves. Which of those people can't see that this is a bully waiting to be slaughtered? It's still the easiest The kind you can get."

Ye Qingrang held back a smile and asked, "Someone jumped on him?"

"Not only that, I wish I could eat it on the spot... Don't laugh, Kang Chi is much more ferocious than those Yingyingyanyans!"

This time Hua Hanzhang was right, Ye Qingrang just finished drinking the jar of vinegar, and immediately put away his smiling face and stopped joking.

"By the way, that Xu Ren has also come to Beijing. He didn't come before, probably because he was promoted to the fifth rank in a hurry." Hua Hanzhang was still angry when he mentioned this person: "He was a monster when he came, and it is said that the Cheng family invited him to come. Going to chant scriptures to pray for blessings, do you know who it is for? It is what Chen Ying mentioned at the beginning, his master's old lover seems to be sick."

Ye Qingrang was a little surprised, and said: "Remember, say it's an old acquaintance of the Taoist priest, what old lover? Don't talk nonsense."

"It's clear, Cheng Xiaoman from the Cheng family is already in her sixties, do you think she's a fool, she doesn't seek a doctor or you when she's sick, go hire that kind of swindling monk!"

"The Taoist priest in charge is still 81, and there is a full ten years difference between the two."

Hua Hanzhang hugged a pillow, and said with a smile: "What? You are competing with me, right? This is not my nonsense, it is what Cheng Xiaoman revealed to Chen Ying. You don't know, she now treats Chen Ying as a Taking care of him like his own son. The Cheng family is a big family, and its influence involves the military, government, and business circles. After the death of Mrs. Cheng, Cheng Xiaoman is the one and only in charge of the family. With her support, Yuxu and those traitors will have to give Chen Ying seven points face!"

He Chengshuang loosened the buttons on his chest, and said with a keen mind, "It's not as simple as everyone thinks that a woman can have such a great right to speak."

It was rare for Hua Hanzhang to agree with He Chengshuang's point of view, and said seriously: "Cheng Xiaoman is very mysterious. There was almost no news of her before the end of the world. The day after tomorrow is the day when Xuren goes to chant scriptures. In fact, it is Cheng Xiaoman's 66th birthday party. The other forces will go to celebrate, and we must also join in the fun."

In the blink of an eye the next day, the Cheng family was extremely lively. For big families like them, there was more than enough room for banquets and wine, and there were professional butlers, chefs, and waiters to handle the entire hospitality process.

The dinner party is just the name of the party, and the invitees come one after another. Those who are close to each other will be guests at the Cheng family throughout the day. As expected, it was only after noon, and the head of the Cheng family was already talking with many powerful people in the small living room. Very happy.

Hua Hanzhang still followed Ye Qingrang, not with the four named Rui Yuexun, but there were many acquaintances present, Ye Rongzhong and his son, Ding Jiukang and his son, Cao Qiudong, and Kang Chi's parents.

Cang Shuangshuang followed Cang Xiong obstinately because of Chen Ying's presence.And Yi Chunjun, You Xiaoyu and that disciple Yuxu who didn't know him in time were also there.There are also people from the Dou family, who seem to have put aside their past grievances.

Cheng Xiaoman has two sons and a daughter, and there are many offshoots of the Cheng family and forces unknown to all parties, so there is no need to mention them one by one.

Not long after, an elderly monk came in with four people, Xu Ren was among them, Chong Yan was also there, and two other monks were older than Xu Ren.

Cheng Yan got up to say hello, and said, "Master Jingxuan has worked hard, and several masters have worked hard."

Jingxuan, as the head old man, performed a Buddha ceremony.

It can be said that the living room in this party gathered more than half of the powerful families and young talents in the capital.

Cheng Yan wanted to say more, but the door was suddenly opened again, and everyone looked, and there were three men and three women standing at the door.One of the men standing on both sides is Chen Ying, and the other is Cheng Yan's eldest son. One of the three is still young, about fourteen or five years old. It seems to be Cheng Yan's youngest daughter. Looking at everyone in the arena, they were a little shy.

Another beautiful woman in her thirties was holding another woman of similar age with an affectionate attitude. She was Cheng Xiaoman's youngest daughter.

The last woman wore a retro bun, with black hair like clouds, exquisite and beautiful features, only slightly lighter eyebrows, but her skin was well maintained, she was thin but had an outstanding temperament.Looking carefully, you can still see the fine lines at the corners of the eyes. Many people sigh in their hearts that although the beauty is beautiful, it is difficult to hide the marks of weather.

Cheng Yan was overjoyed to see the person coming, strode forward to support the woman, and said, "Mom, I've come down so early." Cheng Yan's wife, second brother and his wife immediately came up to meet her.

Most of the people present were breathless. It was unbelievable that this gentle woman in her early thirties was Cheng Yan's mother, Cheng Xiaoman!
