Qilin Jue [Tomb Raiders Notes]

The bright light shines into the dark corners of the city as the sun rises, and the accumulated water on the ground that has flowed through the heavy rain gradually evaporates with the change of temperature, bringing a feeling of coolness.

The chestnut-haired young man sitting by the window looked outside quietly, but his vision was a little out of focus as if recalling something, the sun shone through the window on his delicate but somewhat pale face.

A light bell rang, interrupting his thoughts.

Taking out his mobile phone mechanically, Xie Yuchen looked at the call, frowned slightly, pressed the answer button and said, "What's the matter."

"Master Hua, I just got the news that there was a conflict between the Huo family and the hall in Hangzhou yesterday."

Xie Yuchen frowned and lowered his face, "Say it clearly."

……

The black car stopped at the entrance of the Crescent Hotel.

"Brother Xiaohua is here?" Huo Xiuxiu looked at the elegantly decorated restaurant through the car window and asked the driver.

"Yes, Master Hua personally ordered you to bring Miss Huo here." The man replied.

Huo Xiuxiu got out of the car, looked at the quiet restaurant, thanked the driver and went in.

It was still early, and there were almost no customers in the store, only a few cleaning guys were busy.The atmosphere is peaceful.

Huo Xiuxiu stood at the door of the shop and looked around.She has only been here a few times and is not very familiar with it.

His eyes kept wandering, and finally, he saw the familiar figure in the corner by the window.

Huo Xiuxiu raised a smile and was about to rush forward to say hello as before, but suddenly seemed to remember something, and stopped in place the moment she stepped forward.Huo Xiuxiu's expression became heavy, and her expression became worried.

Xie Yuchen, who was sitting not far away, was answering the phone, but his expression became more and more gloomy.

Huo Xiuxiu stood there hesitating, feeling uncontrollably flustered.Looking up again, he saw that Xie Yuchen had put down the phone, thought for a moment, took a deep breath, and walked over.

"Brother Xiaohua." Huo Xiuxiu stopped beside Xie Yuchen and called out cautiously.

Xie Yuchen put down the phone.He knew from the very beginning that Huo Xiuxiu was coming, and when he saw her walking over, he calmed down, turned his head and smiled and said, "Here we come, sit down."

Huo Xiuxiu sat across from Xie Yuchen and saw that Xie Yuchen was so gentle to her as usual, suddenly she didn't know what to say, her hands were nervously pinching the corners of her clothes, her head was lowered, her gaze was a bit erratic, but she didn't dare to look at Xie Yuchen.

"What's wrong? Are you uncomfortable?" Seeing that Huo Xiuxiu's face was pale, Xie Yuchen asked softly.

Shaking her head, Huo Xiuxiu looked up at Xie Yuchen, and after a while, said nervously, "Brother Xiaohua, you should know, the Huo family..."

Xie Yuchen was taken aback, remembering what his subordinates reported just now, and then said with a smile: "Well, I see, it's nothing."

That's the way it is said, but of course it's not the case.

The Xie family and the Huo family have been having constant disputes in secret. Some time ago, the handicap dispute over Changsha was resolved with the help of the Zhang family. The Huo family was hit, so they refused to let it go. This time they met with Xie in Hangzhou There is a confrontation at home.

Huo Xiuxiu said with some guilt: "I'm sorry, you are so embarrassing..."

"No need to apologize, this has nothing to do with you." Xie Yuchen smiled.

"I know you'll say that," Huo Xiuxiu shook her head, "You never tell me these things, I know it's for my own good, and you don't want me to get involved in these complicated things. But because it's also related to the Huo family, I shouldn't Stand aside."

Xie Yuchen picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, and said slowly: "It's not a big deal, the Xie family and the Huo family have always been like this, you don't matter if you know it, and this is also a competition between the two families, isn't it? I can still handle it. Will you be alienated from me because of this?"

Huo Xiuxiu hurriedly said: "Of course not! You are having conflicts with the Huo family, and you are not unfamiliar with me. It's just that it must be difficult for you."

"Okay, as I said last time, you don't need to care about these things. This is the Xie family and the Huo family, nothing personal." Putting down the teacup, Xie Yuchen sighed, "Don't think about that when you come here, what do you want to do? Just do it."

Huo Xiuxiu looked at Xie Yuchen with a complicated expression, and squeezed the hem of his clothes more and more.

She knew that no matter how many conflicts and disputes there were between the Xie family and the Huo family, Xie Yuchen would never involve her in these matters. He never let her intervene in these matters. younger sister.

But the more this happened, the more upset she felt, and she felt that she was useless, which must be a burden to Xie Yuchen, even though he never felt that way, but it was a fact.

If she could help Xie Yuchen, Huo Xiuxiu would not hesitate. She just wanted to help Xie Yuchen. Didn't Huo Xiangu always do this in the past?

Thinking of her deceased relatives, Huo Xiuxiu's expression darkened.Although he has come out of grief, he still feels sad when he thinks that his dearest grandma is no longer here.

"Don't worry about it." Seeing Huo Xiuxiu bowing her head in silence, Xie Yuchen said.

"Brother Xiaohua," after a long silence, Huo Xiuxiu slowly raised her head, looked at Xie Yuchen, with persistent determination in her eyes, and said seriously: "You don't have to defend me like this, if it can help you, you don't have to care about my thoughts. "

Xie Yuchen frowned slightly, a little puzzled by Huo Xiuxiu's strangeness at the moment.

Taking a deep breath, Huo Xiuxiu looked at Xie Yuchen nervously, remained silent for a moment, and suddenly said, "Let's get married."

Xie Yuchen was stunned for a moment, looking at Huo Xiuxiu, he seemed a little overwhelmed.

"In this way, the Huo family will no longer have conflicts of interest with the Xie family." Huo Xiuxiu's voice dropped as she spoke, "Grandma also told me that if things come to this, if I want to help you, I can do so of."

Speaking of this, Huo Xiuxiu looked at Xie Yuchen seriously, "As long as I can help you..." But Huo Xiuxiu suddenly realized that something was wrong with Xie Yuchen, Xie Yuchen looked at her a little stunned, no, it should be looking in her direction.

Huo Xiuxiu followed Xie Yuchen's line of sight suspiciously and turned to look behind her.

Standing at the foot of the building, Wu Xie looked at them in surprise, obviously hearing their conversation.And the other two figures were coming down from the second floor.

Seeing Wu Xie, Huo Xiuxiu was still at a loss.

Then Zhang Qiling who came down was as indifferent as usual, and looked at Xie Yuchen and Huo Xiuxiu playfully with black glasses. Of course, others couldn't see his expression under the sunglasses, only the curvature of his mouth.

Xie Yuchen seemed to turn a blind eye to all of this, only seeing the cold and indifferent figure in his eyes.

Looking at those Wulan eyes, he suddenly panicked inexplicably, but he didn't know what he was panicking about.

Huo Xiuxiu came to her senses after the initial daze, nodded and said, "Hello."

Wu Xie looked at Huo Xiuxiu with a forced smile, and didn't know what to say. He knew that Huo Xiuxiu had always been very concerned about Huo Xiangu's death, and that matter had something to do with him, so it was understandable that Huo Xiuxiu felt estranged from him.

Xie Yuchen stabilized his emotions, raised a smile, and said, "Come and sit down."

Wu Xie nodded towards Huo Xiuxiu, walked over to sit down, but didn't say anything, and he really didn't know what to say.

The black glasses smiled charmingly at Zhang Qiling, put his arms around his shoulders, and leaned part of his weight on it, Zhang Qiling naturally put his arms around his waist, and helped him slowly walk over and sit down.

Seeing the interaction between the two as if in tacit understanding, Xie Yuchen's face became even paler when he thought of something, and there was unconcealable pain in his gloomy eyes.

……

There were exquisite dishes on the table, but the five people sitting at the table seemed to have no appetite and were eating absent-mindedly.

Xie Yuchen looked at Huo Xiuxiu and Wu Xie who were eating with their heads down, and suddenly didn't want to talk, not because they didn't have anything to say, but because they didn't have that mood.Since he came here, the development of things has been unexpected. Coupled with the family affairs, now there is only irritability in his heart, and there is also a little inexplicable panic, the sudden panic that seems to be out of control.

The three of them have their own thoughts in their hearts, but the whole mind is not here, only Zhang Qiling and the black glasses, the two seem to be eating, but they are actually paying attention to the outside.

……

In the dark street, there seemed to be a few figures flashing by, slowly approaching.

When the atmosphere is quiet, the danger gradually comes.

Wu Xie felt that Zhang Qiling was a little too silent. Although he was always silent at ordinary times, Wu Xie just felt that he was different from usual at this moment, as if he was paying attention to other things and kept silent on purpose.Wu Xie suddenly remembered that Zhang Qiling, who had fought with them in the past, was so silent at this time because...

Thinking of this, Wu Xie looked up at Zhang Qiling, and was about to speak, when he suddenly felt the cold magnetic field emanating from Zhang Qiling's body, and at the moment when everyone couldn't react, Zhang Qiling moved so fast that no one could see clearly, he jumped up and opened the window disappear.

"Brother!" Wu Xie got up abruptly after being stunned for a moment, and his body seemed to chase out consciously.

This is already an instinct, an instinct to chase Zhang Qiling, so Wu Xie will chase after him desperately.

Wu Xie remembered that Zhang Qiling would be so silent only when there was a danger. He would always act the moment before the danger happened to protect everyone's safety.

It has always been so.
