Chapter 19 Time waits for no one

Watching Yan Yuyang lower his sword, Long Che also lowered quickly, almost missing Su Zhengluo.When the sword fell to the ground, Su Zhengluo gently stroked his little heart, and breathed a sigh of relief, "It's finally here."

Long Che ran over, hugged him, put an arm around Yan Yuyang's neck, "Brother Yuyang, what's wrong with you, why are you so fast all of a sudden, I can't even catch up with you." Yan Yuyang threw off his arm, "I don't like casual contact with other people."

"We've known each other for so long, we're considered good friends, how could it be someone else?" Long Che was displeased, but he still withdrew his hand.

"Mr. Long, you are a good man, can you do it to the end?" Su Zhengluo scratched his little head.Long Che gave him a kick, "You won't let me find someone for you, I don't know him."

Su Zhengluo nodded embarrassingly, "Exactly, Mr. Long, you are too smart." The corner of Long Che's mouth twitched, "You can find someone, but this..."

"Oh, I understand, money, I will definitely not miss you/" Su Zhengluo said with a smile. "Tell me, what is his name? Which street does he live in?"

"Uh,... I only know that his nickname is Xiao Jing." He put on an innocent expression, afraid that Mr. Long would yell at him again.Sure enough, Long Che was still mad at him, he looked up and saw Long Che staring at him.

"You don't even know their name, how can you ask us to help you?" Long Che clasped his arms around his chest.Yan Yuyang walked over and asked, "Then do you have anything related to him?"

Su Zhengluo took out a dead branch from his bosom, "Only this." Long Che stepped forward, "What is this?"

Su Zhengluo said: "He gave it to me ten years ago. It snowed heavily that year, and I was almost frozen to death on the street. He gave us two steamed buns and this branch of red plum. It's a pity that it's been a long time. The plums have fallen, and the branches are withered." He lowered his head slightly as he spoke.

Long Che could see sadness and regret on his face. "With just this and a baby name, I'm afraid it will be difficult to find someone."

Su Zhengluo said: "There are not many people here, so it shouldn't be long." Long Che's mouth was puffed up, "Do you have to ask each family? It would be quite troublesome. Although there are not many people here, I guess it will take About a hundred households."

"Let's split up, the three of us. Find someone whose nickname is Xiaojing, and ask him if he ever sent red plums to others ten years ago." Su Zhengluo said. "

"Okay, let's do it like this." Long Che turned his head and was about to leave.Su Zhengluo grabbed his arm, "You must ask carefully."

Long Che said: "Sure, taking people's money, what the hell." Su Zhengluo rolled his eyes at him again, "Nonsense."

Long Che had just walked a few steps when Yan Yuyang also started from another direction.Just when Su Zhengluo was about to enter another alley, suddenly a man passed him with an umbrella.

That feeling was both familiar and strange, so Su Zhengluo stopped him, turned his head and followed him, ran to the man, looked at him, and asked with a trembling voice: "You, are you Xiaojing?"

The man froze, "You, how do you know my baby name?" Su Zhengluo exclaimed excitedly, "Xiaojing, it's really you, that's great!" The man opened the umbrella and nodded, "My lord , are you okay?"

Su Zhengluo's loud voice attracted Long Che and Yan Yuyang.He continued: "Ten years ago, you rescued a child in this street, gave him steamed buns, and gave him a red plum, do you remember?" He looked at the man expectantly.

"Ten years ago? I... I don't remember." The man said.Su Zhengluo's face suddenly changed from anticipation to disappointment.He took out the dead branch in his hand, "This is the red plum you gave me. I have kept it for ten years, and I only hope to find you."

The man looked at Su Zhengluo very disappointed, and said with relief: "There are also many people named Xiaojing, maybe you have misunderstood the man." "No, I won't admit the wrong person, you are." Su Zhengluo was very sure .

"I have saved a lot of people. I really don't remember what you said." The man said apologetically.Long Che stood not far away and looked at the person beside the umbrella. At a glance, he was a gentle, humble, and docile person. He exuded a distinctive nobility, and his demeanor was elegant.

"You, I really don't remember..." Su Zhengluo's ten years of anticipation and waiting were shattered in an instant.He stuffed the red plum into the man's hand and said, "Give this back to you, I... I'm going back."

Long Che stepped forward to stop him, "You came all the way to find someone, and since you found it, did you give up so easily?" Su Zhengluo said, "Mr. Long, I don't want to pester others. Since they don't remember, why should I?" It's self-indulgent."

The man heard the voice and said: "Young master, let me think about it, maybe I can remember." Su Zhengluo did not speak.Long Che looked at Sheng Jingxiao, and said, "Yes, you should think about it, it's not easy for him to come here."

"My house is not far in front. If you don't mind, you can come to my house and have a sit down. Xia Sheng Jingxiao, haven't you asked the names of the young masters yet?"

Long Che was the first to say: "Master's name is Long Che." Su Zhengluo bowed, "I'm Su Zhengluo." Yan Yuyang still had that cold face, and said, "Yan Yuyang."

"Young masters, come with me." Sheng Jingxiao led them to the front.Stepping into the "Shengmen", Long Che looked around and praised: "I didn't expect your house to be so big. It looks very grand."

Sheng Jingxiao smiled, "I made everyone laugh. Come, please sit down." He asked his servants to make tea.

The three sat down.Su Zhengluo saw a few red plums stuck in a bottle on the table not far away, and Long Che saw it too, "It's red plums, it smells so good." He leaned over.

"My parents have something to go out today, and it's just me and some maidservants at home, so don't be restrained." Sheng Jingxiao said.After a while, a servant girl brought tea, Sheng Jingxiao poured the tea and handed it to them one by one.

Che took the tea and took a sip, "The tea smells so good." He couldn't help praising it.Su Zhengluo put down the teacup and lowered his head.Sheng Jingxiao said: "Mr. Su, is this jasmine tea not to your liking?"

Su Zhengluo shook his head, "I'm not in the mood." Long Che looked at him, "I'll feel better after drinking some tea." Su Zhengluo felt wronged, "I'm already like this, Mr. Long, you're still kidding me."

"I'm not joking, I'm serious, drinking some tea will really improve your mood." Long Che looked serious, "Brother Yuyang, do you think so?" He turned his head and asked Yan Yuyang.

Yan Yuyang said coldly: "No." Long Che squinted, "Can't you just follow my words?"

Sheng Jingxiao said suddenly: "Everyone, in a few days it will be my auspicious wedding day. Since we are destined to meet each other, can the three of you please stay and have a glass of wedding wine before leaving?"

"Are you going to get married?" Su Zhengluo suddenly stood up excitedly from his chair. "Yeah, what's the matter?" Sheng Jingxiao asked very politely and gently.

"You are going to marry a wife. What am I still doing here?" Su Zhengluo walked out as he spoke. Long Che stepped forward and pulled his arm, curiously asking: "He is married, why can't you stay here?" Here? Didn’t you just come to repay your kindness? Just take this opportunity to celebrate.”

He shook off Long Che's hand and said loudly: "You don't understand, you don't understand." Long Che could see that he was a little agitated, and there was a little sadness in his eyes.

"How do I understand if you don't tell me?" Long Che also shouted loudly.Sheng Jingxiao was a little confused, "Did I say something wrong, Mr. Su, you..."

Yan Yuyang looked at Long Che and said, "You tell him to calm down." Su Zhengluo rushed out of the door, and Yan Yuyang saw tears flickering in his eyes.

Long Che was worried that something might happen to him, so he followed him. Su Zhengluo ran under a plum tree in the yard, looked at the red plum blossoms in full bloom, and sighed: "Every year, the flowers are similar, and every year, every year is like a flower. Different." He reached out and folded a plum to put it in his hand, and said to himself: "Maybe I was thinking too much, I shouldn't have thought, I should have forgotten it long ago."

Long Che took a few steps forward, "Why don't you think too much? If you don't do it, how will you know it won't work? You have to try everything to know." Su Zhengluo looked back at him with tears in his eyes, "Really? Well, is it really possible, but he is going to marry a wife, do I still have hope?"

Long Che's face twitched, "What do you mean? Why does he marry a wife? You have no hope. Do you want to marry his wife?" Su Zhengluo was defeated by him, "No."

"What the hell is that? You said it. Didn't you know how to say it before?" Long Che was really scared to death by him.

"I...I like him, I have always liked him, since the meeting ten years ago..." Su Zhengluo blushed. "You...you have the habit of breaking sleeves, Long Yang is good?" Long Che was so startled that his eyes widened.

"It's embarrassing, isn't it? I know it myself. I have considered this issue for ten years, but I can't help it. I just can't forget him." Su Zhengluo was very helpless.

"What's so embarrassing about this, I just feel a little surprised." Long Che said. "What should I do now?" Su Zhengluo asked.

Long Che said: "Would you like to try to tell him your feelings?" "No!" He flatly refused. "He doesn't even remember me, and he's getting married, so I can't make things difficult for him."

"Then let's forget it? It's hard for you to come here, and you're not willing to go back like this." Long Che said that Su Zheng was heartbroken.

"What can I do if I'm not willing? I'd better go home obediently." He walked back to the house and said, "Mr. Sheng, thank you for your hospitality. Because I have something to do at home, I can't attend your wedding ceremony." Yes, I’m here to wish you and the bride a happy marriage for a hundred years and be united forever. I’ll take my leave first.”

After he finished speaking, he turned and left before Sheng Jingxiao even had time to ask.Walking to the courtyard, Long Che said: "Young Master Su, give us two days, and I will definitely remind him of you."

Su Zhengluo stopped and looked at Long Che, "Really?" Long Che nodded, "There is nothing in the world that I, Long Che, can't do." Well, Mr. Long is talking loudly again.

Su Zhengluo knew that he really liked Sheng Jingxiao, so as long as he had a little hope, he also hoped that he would remember him.
