The Sick Beauty in the Republic of China

When He Chengdong arrived, Qi Chensheng was standing by the window behind the desk as usual, but this time he didn't cling to the cane, but played with a ring inlaid with crimson stone.

"Second Young Master, this is the guest list of the Zhao family tonight." After He Chengdong thought about it, he still didn't ask where Qi Er Shao had been these few days, but put the things he found on the desk.

Qi Chensheng turned around after hearing the words, wondering if it was an illusion, He Chengdong actually felt that his face was extremely pale, and the scar on his right eye became more and more clear.

But he himself didn't seem to care, looking down at the name on the paper as usual.

"Ms. Claus and Ms. Zhao really have a very close relationship, so their brothers and sisters will all go to Zhao's house tonight." He Chengdong continued, and then took out another stack of documents from the file folder. A little scared: "Also, Second Young Master... I think you should read these."

"These are the other people you mentioned that day."

Qi Chensheng reached out to take the stack of materials, frowning slightly, black and white words were reflected in his eyes that had never been blind, and he put the materials back on the table after a long while.

"okay, I get it."

When he spoke again, Qi Chensheng returned to his usual indifference. He Chengdong has been with Qi Ershao these years, and he has actually seen these things a lot, so he is not surprised by Qi Chensheng's current reaction.

It's just that when Qi Chensheng asked him to arrange to go to Zhao's car at night, a hesitant look appeared on He Chengdong's face.

"What else is there?" Qi Chensheng didn't escape the tiny expression. He raised his eyes to look at his secretary and asked indifferently.

"Second Young Master, Eldest Master will also be going tonight," He Chengdong lowered his voice and tentatively said, "You know, he wants you on purpose—"

As soon as he said this, He Chengdong saw Qi Chensheng make a stop gesture.

Although he didn't say a word, He Chengdong could guess a little bit of Qi Chensheng's mood at the moment, since it was related to the Elder Master, the second young master's mood would definitely not be too good.

"Is there anything else?" Qi Chensheng looked back at the ring in his hand.

"No more." He Chengdong spoke truthfully to Qi Chensheng across the desk, and did not leave the study until the other party nodded.

After He Chengdong left, Qi Chensheng sat in the study for a while, his thoughts wandered and he didn't know what to think of, but his eyes kept falling on the ruby ​​ring in his hand.

Finally, after the wall clock rang four times, he got up and walked to the bedroom.

The rain, along with the sinking sun, stopped.Dim afterglow light entered the corridor in front of him, Qi Chensheng walked along it, walked straight to the small door, and pushed it open without warning.

Wang Luan should have changed his clothes early, and now he was leaning on the rocking chair beside the bed, and fell asleep lightly again.

Behind him was a tall glass window, with a gentle sunset, caressing over Wang Luan's extremely delicate brown gown woven with light patterns, it seemed that every intertwined silk thread was also dazzled.

However, all of these brilliance are not comparable to his face in light sleep, which is so beautiful that it seems to be out of this world.

Qi Chensheng couldn't help but lighten his steps, and walked slowly to Wang Luan's side, then knocked down on one knee, and held up Wang Luan's right hand with great care.

Because of this small movement, Wang Luan opened his eyes. When he woke up from the half-drowsy, what he saw was Qi Chensheng who hadn't seen him for a long time, devoutly putting a ring made of red blood , put it on his index finger, and then kissed it down.

"Shen Sheng?" Wang Luan moved his fingers lightly, attracting Qi Chensheng's gaze.Wang Luan also looked back at Qi Chensheng, noticing the exhaustion deliberately hidden between his brows and eyes.

Wang Luan paused, suppressed a few small coughs and asked again: "Are you busy these days?"

"Yes," Qi Chensheng answered briefly, sat next to Wang Luan, and stretched out his hand to brush away the soft hair on his forehead: "There are some things to be busy."

What is it?Wang Luan wanted to ask, but there was a brief silence between the two of them—this was what Wang Luan couldn't bear more and more.

He knows that he still loves Qi Chensheng, and Qi Chensheng's love for him has not diminished in the past five years, and the way they get along now is mutual torture for both of them.

He doesn't want to go on like this anymore.

But so what?

Wang Luan himself couldn't let go of the guilt in his heart, so how could he expect Qi Chensheng to forget the betrayal back then?

Not to mention the holding demon thing, Wang Luan is very clear about what tuberculosis is, and the short-term relief after taking the medicine for the past few days does not mean that he can recover.He still has three years at most, or less time... Wang Luan recalled seeing a person who had tuberculosis when he was young, and his whole body was thin and sallow before he died.

He absolutely didn't want Qi Chensheng to see his dying ugly appearance, and he didn't want to cruelly leave Qi Chensheng's side again after reconciliation.

So, what exactly to do.

"Let's go, the time is almost up." Just before the sunset completely set, Qi Chensheng finally broke the calm, stood up and hugged Wang Luan.

As usual, Wang Luan put his arms around his neck, and then leaned against his shoulder as if away from him.

The two soon came downstairs, got into the car, and drove away into the twilight.

During the time he came to Yunchuan, although Wang Luan had been ill, he knew a little about this small town.

The place where they live now should be in the Dongcheng area near Jinyuewan Qingyangfang, so most of them are Chinese and Western buildings in recent years.

After the establishment of the new government, Yunchuan's government offices were also located here.

And going west, after passing the two rivers of Yunshui and Chuanshui, you will arrive at the old city of Yunchuan, where the famous local families basically live here.

Wang Luan looked out of the car window, and the scenery on the street became more and more simple and old, from bungalow gardens to Daiwa high courtyard.

He had been here before, not long after he first arrived in Yunchuan a few months ago, he supported his weak body and sneaked here.

Hidden in the streets and alleys, looking at the vermilion gate of the Qi family from a distance, he stood there for almost a whole day, but unfortunately he couldn't see Qi Chensheng in the end...

It is also from Yunchuan's famous family, Master Liang Zhao's house is also nearby, because a banquet is held for his daughter today, the whole house is decorated with lights and festoons, and the streets are full of guests and vehicles, which is very lively.

Qi Chensheng's car drove directly to the gate of Zhao's house. The moment the door opened, Wang Luan really understood Qi Chensheng's status in Yunchuan.

Almost everyone's movements stopped, and they looked here one after another, with awe, envy, flattery, and jealousy in their eyes...

While they were watching, Wang Luan got out of the car with Qi Chensheng. At this time, a few people who had business dealings with Qi Chensheng came over to say hello.He originally wanted to use this to put a little distance between Qi Chensheng and Qi Chensheng, but he didn't want to be half a step behind, and Qi Chensheng's arm wrapped around his waist, bringing him back to his side.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, such an unavoidable move immediately aroused small discussions among the crowd, but Qi Chensheng still didn't hear about it.After nodding indifferently with those few people, he continued to embrace Wang Luan and walked into the gate of Zhao's house.

Wang Luan never thought that it would be like this, and his steps were a little stiff when he walked. When he stepped into the half-knee-high threshold of Zhao's house, he was almost tripped, but it was Qi Chensheng who held him up. It even tightened a little bit to the side.

"Second Young Master Qi, we haven't seen each other for a while."

Wang Luan was trying to calm down, but when he looked up, he saw a man in his early twenties, wearing a silk gown, walking towards the two with a smile on his face, and his whole body was filled with the atmosphere of the host's hospitality.

"Master Zhao, Zhao Qingchun," Qi Chensheng nodded slightly, rather than saying hello to Young Master Zhao, he was speaking to Wang Luan, and the slender cane appeared before he was holding Wang Luan at some point. His hand tapped the ground impatiently: "It's been a long time."

Zhao Qingchun's smile didn't weaken at all because of Qi Chensheng's indifference, but his eyes secretly fell on Wang Luan in his arms, and he greeted him casually: "This gentleman looks strange, so why don't you introduce him to him? "

Wang Luan's eyes drooped slightly, he really didn't know what name Qi Chensheng would give him now.

Be it a friend, a lover, or...

"It's my wife."

A few short words exploded between them like a thunderbolt, not to mention the young master of the Zhao family, even Wang Luan was completely stunned.

He subconsciously raised his eyes to look at Qi Chensheng, Qi Chensheng wrapped his arms tighter, as if afraid that the other party could not hear clearly, he repeated: "This is my wife."

The people around were talking louder, and Zhao Qingchun couldn't hold back anymore, his face changed several times, he gritted his teeth and wanted to say something but he choked back: "Then Young Master Qi please, my father is still waiting for you inside. "

Qi Chensheng nodded, Wang Luan obviously felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere, but it was difficult to speak at the moment, so he had to walk in together with Qi Chensheng.

Because it was for Miss Zhao's birthday, the banquet was not set up in the main hall in a solemn and orderly manner, and the spring flowers and lanterns were placed all the way, leading people into a garden.

When Wang Luan stepped through the moon gate, he even raised his head to take a look. The words Changquanyuan were written in ink and brush on it.

Go in and take a look, but it really deserves such a name.This garden is built around a pool of clear running water, and there are three or five small springs scattered in it, each with its own scenery and charm, which is very interesting.

On the side of the pool, only the north side has a two-story pavilion, and the other three sides are surrounded by corridors, and a small hall is expanded from the corridor. At this moment, the hall is full of banquets.

Qi Chensheng continued to walk towards the small hall with Wang Luan, his arms were still around his waist, as if to declare something.

Wang Luan was surprised at first, but then he felt uneasy, but when he followed Qi Chensheng all the way to this place, he was finally relieved.

"Shen Sheng, let's talk after we go back tonight."

Qi Chensheng tilted his eyes slightly towards Wang Luan, looked at him for a while with the help of the lamp in the corridor, and then said: "Okay."
