Banquet

Chapter 4 Confrontation

Gu Yan did not directly respond to his thanks, but just smiled connotatively, and then handed Jiang Chengyan the medicine that had not been accepted.

Jiang Chengyan stood there without moving, his brows were cold, and he shook his head politely.

Gu Yan, who has always been a smug villain in his heart, was knocked to the ground by another cruel villain.

He restrained his extroverted charm, stepped forward first and handed the medicine to Jiang Chengyan, and said sincerely: "I think there is a misunderstanding between you and Chen Yan."

Jiang Chengyan was smiling but not smiling, he resisted the medicine handed over with a decisive attitude.

Gu Yan held him down, lowered his head slightly, and said in a deep voice: "I know your identity, let's find a place to talk."

The place to talk is decided by Jiang Chengyan.

Gu Yan thought that he was covered in injuries, so he just found a place to chat casually, but he didn't expect him to be quite capable of tossing around.

Jiang Chengyan also wanted to avoid Chen Yan and understand the further development of the situation. Finally, it was an hour later when Jiang Chengyan decided on the place.

The taxi drove through familiar streets and roads, and stopped at the entrance of an old block.

The old neighborhood is covered with ivy, and the long and thin vines have witnessed many years of changes, and finally stayed here.

According to Jiang Chengyan, the place they were going to was a teahouse. That teahouse was behind a heavy blue iron door. Jiang Chengyan tapped the doorknob three times before the two of them entered.

Before arriving at the tea house, they had to walk up the long bluestone steps step by step. Jiang Chengyan didn't take the initiative to speak, and Gu Yan didn't speak either.

After walking halfway up the stone steps, Gu Yan finally asked the name of the tea house.

Jiang Chengyan responded slowly: "That tea house."

Gu Yan waited for a long time and didn't hear the following, he thought Jiang Chengyan didn't say anything on purpose and didn't care?

When he arrived at the tea house, he found that on a tattered green and black signboard, it was crookedly engraved in gold ink——

That tea house.

This is the name of the tea house.

Gu Yan laughed softly. Jiang Chengyan had already changed his shoes. Hearing the sound, he gave him a strange look, and said a rare extra sentence: "This is like the boss's home. Changing shoes will not increase their trouble of tidying up." .”

After speaking, he handed him a pair of cloth shoes, and then took Gu Yan to change the shoes and put them in the shoe cabinet.

With the first initiative to speak, there will be a second and a third time.

Jiang Chengyan really regarded this place as his second home, and described it coldly, with rare warmth.

A brief introduction, such as that the teahouse is run by an old man, has been passed down from generation to generation, without publicity, expansion, or transfer.

Jiang Chengyan chooses this place to truly relax himself, the quiet and elegant environment, comfortable temperature, and familiar people.

Jiang Chengyan doesn't know what he wants, but he knows what suits him.These things that ordinary people seem to have within reach are so precious to me.

There are only two maids washing and cooking tea in the tea house. They are also the family members of the former maids. The tea making skills have been taught and practiced only in the family under the insistence of the boss. This generation has no idea how much time has passed.

The little girl is seventeen or eighteen years old, with beautiful eyes and plain clothes like snow. They gently opened the bamboo curtain, and the steaming tea in the house was drawn into the courtyard, leaving the most mellow and fragrant tea. The meaning is dense in the inner room.

In such a tranquil and elegant environment, Jiang Chengyan's brows seemed unreal in the steaming water vapor, reflecting the green bamboo outside the house, his tense face softened slightly.

Jiang Chengyan's heart also gradually calmed down. He watched the tea leaves in the purple clay pot, held the teapot in his hand, poured it for Gu Yan, and pushed it gently.

The first cup of tea was pushed over, the bamboo curtains were blown by the wind from time to time, and the sound of raindrops was heard occasionally, but there was a brief silence in the house.

"We came to Changhai because of the collapse of the Pingjiang Bridge." Gu Yan twirled his teacup and spoke slowly.

Jiang Chengyan held the teapot and poured it for himself: "Colonel Chen Yan too?"

When Gu Yan was not speaking, his thin mouth was tightly pursed, and the lines of his face were extremely cold and hard, which made people feel cold, and he felt that this person's will was hard to shake.

"He's more than that." Gu Yan said flatly.

Nan Yu and Bei Jue back then, now they see each other but don't hear each other.What happened in the middle is something that no one else can comment on.

Jiang Zetao just stepped down from the temple. Isn't Chen Yan more pitiful than him, becoming the king of Hades who should not be approached by strangers, sinking into hell step by step.

Gu Yan was brought into the army by Chen Yan, and most of what he learned came from Chen Yan. His friendship as a teacher and a friend made Gu Yan inevitably favor Chen Yan a little more. He had no intention of knowing more about Jiang Zetao's affairs.

"But I want to ask you some questions alone." Gu Yanyu turned his head, and a few drops of rain splashed on the back of Jiang Chengyan's hand with a cold chill.

The atmosphere in the teahouse has been changing, from being acceptable before entering the house to being quiet and even cold now, just a brief statement.

"The Pingjiang tunnel collapsed, causing 72 casualties and 32 deaths. Reported to the central government, it is already a serious safety accident."

"Now a task force is set up to investigate, and all investigations and interrogations are not restricted by any department."

"Jiang Zetao really accepts bribes and corruption. Every day he lives, he is stepping on 120 family fragments. Ask him, can he sleep every night?" Gu Yan put down his teacup and looked directly at Jiang Chengyan.

Those eyes can be full of laughter and slightly playful, or they can be emotionless and dark and deep.

When it is deep, it can suck away people's soul, and when it is dark, it can control the weakness and haste in the depths of human nature.

Just like a male tiger before hunting, its retracted fangs always hide the sharpness of devouring its prey.

Chen Yan and Gu Yan suddenly entered Changhai to become friends and foes, and all forces competed for each other.

The father was imprisoned, the case was complicated and confusing, and then the bridge invested in the construction collapsed, and the body was found to be fake when he received a call.

All the hypocrisy was torn apart vigorously, and the difficulties and embarrassments were spread out in front of my eyes one by one.

The ordinary and peaceful life seemed to leave him overnight, and Jiang Chengyan also wanted to answer.

It's him.It's just two words, but opening the mouth is extremely important.

It was he himself who didn't believe it.

After the trial of the case is completed, all internal documents and evidence will be submitted to the superior and awaiting sealing.

Perhaps there are strangeness and deceit in it, but he is unable to prove it. In the thick fog, he always thinks of the last meeting with his father.

He looked up at the bright window, seemed to be thinking about something infinitely, turned his head and whispered: "I don't believe it either."

Even he himself doesn't believe it.

A sparrow sheltered from the rain came down from the window lattice, shaking its wet feathers, waiting for the rain to stop.

There may be times when the rain won't stop, but criticism and questioning will never stop.

Human beings need the truth. Even if the bones and loess are old and old, some people still entrust their descendants to wait for the answer. 'Gu Yan wants the truth, but Chen Yan doesn't want the truth.

What about Jiang Zetao himself?

If he is a father, if he is a father, how to choose.

The light of the mountain was breaking through the dawn, the water was falling, and he seemed to have got an answer through the fog.

"Are you interrogating me, sir." Jiang Chengyan's voice was cool.

"If so?" Gu Yan raised his eyebrows and smiled, his deep voice was like a cello with beautiful tunes.

"The interrogation room is in the detention center, and the trial seat is in the court."

Jiang Chengyan said, "If you are an investigator, please show your work certificate so that I can cooperate."

Gu Yan's eyes flickered, his lips rose to the extreme, and he said slowly: "That's a coincidence, I am one of the leaders of this investigation team."

"Are you going to interrogate me now?" Jiang Chengyan watched the sparrows sheltering from the rain on the window lattice without looking back.

Gu Yan shook his head, suddenly smiled, that smile broke through the frozen ice, separated from the cool rain, he smiled faintly: "No, there is something more important than that, and that is my self-introduction."

With a lift of both hands, he easily moved the low table between the two of them to one side, leaned half of his body forward, and looked at Jiang Chengyan intently: "The humble surname is Gu, the single name is Yan, Chaozong Haimao, Yan Yu The birth of the four seas."

He stretched out his hand towards Jiang Chengyan, and Jiang Chengyan could catch Gu Yan's breath by lowering his head slightly, but he didn't respond, so he kept this posture all the time, just like delivering medicine.

Jiang Chengyan frowned, but Gu Yan's expression remained unchanged.After a long time, he gently squeezed Gu Yan back, and then let go.

Gu Yan lowered his head, stared at his hand that was holding back, and smiled slightly.
