"On the night when you are crowned the queen of Venice again, I will be the first to offer you flowers of blessing."

This can be regarded as a promise he made to her, a default agreement between him and her.

And before the appointed day arrives, the rest is a long wait.

……

Christmas, as he said, he did not come back.As in previous years, a package was sent from a hidden address to deliver the Christmas gifts.

On Christmas Eve, Laura and Dino simply spent together in a safe restaurant arranged by the consultant outside the door.

Leaning against the floor-to-ceiling windows, outside the window is the snow in the night under the neon lights, and you can also see the salesmen dressed as Santa Claus on the street happily distributing Christmas candy to the children around him.

Seeing the innocent scene, Laura suddenly asked with great interest, "Dino, you seem to have never believed in the legend of Santa Claus."

Don't most children believe that on the night of Christmas Eve, Santa Claus will bring gifts to fulfill their wishes, and they even hang the Christmas stockings on the bedside and wait for Santa Claus to throw the gifts in.It stands to reason that his son is so stupid and sweet, so he should believe it more?But it seems that this has never been in the consciousness of his eldest son since he was a child.

"Why do you want to make a wish to Santa Claus?" Dino blinked innocently, "Dad and Mommy will give me gifts every Christmas. Those gifts are great, and I keep them all the time."

An answer that made me feel heart-warming, but it also made me feel more distressed about my son... While other people's children are still crying and acting like a baby for their favorite toys, her son is as long as he can receive gifts from his parents. Very happy.

"Dino, what are you thinking?" Laura asked curiously, noticing that her son had been staring blankly at the white snow outside the window just now.

The little face was almost stuck to the floor-to-ceiling windows, Dino said with a smile: "It's nothing, I was just thinking... I don't know where Dad is spending Christmas now, I wonder if it's snowing there now?"

"You miss your dad?"

"Well, because I love Papa very much...and of course I love Mummy very much. I hope we can spend Christmas together sometime."

"There will be such a day... Don't worry, take your time, we don't want you to grow up so soon."

……

A few days after Christmas, it is a new year.

On February [-]th, Dino's ninth birthday, he still hadn't come back.

At the beginning of April, when the filming phase of the film she and Ogata Qiwen collaborated on was completed, he still hadn't returned.

In the past few months, he only called her occasionally.Each time was short and the conversation was not important, but they didn't feel the slightest bit of impatience or boredom between each other.

"Hey, how long will it be before you come back?"

On the night of the movie wrapping up, Laura, who had just returned to her apartment after the wrapping-up celebratory banquet, was so exhausted that she fell on the bed when Enzo called, and it had been almost a month since she received a call from him last time. up.

There was a chuckle on the other end of the phone, "Have you been drinking?"

"You can hear that?" There was indeed a bit of drunkenness in the eyes, and Laura's tone became much more lively.

Today's filming wraps up, and the wrapping-up celebration banquet is naturally indispensable. The nerves of the entire crew, which have been tense for several months, can finally be temporarily relaxed, and everyone took the opportunity to go wild and free and easy.She doesn't usually drink much, and she doesn't like it too much, but after all, it's a day worth celebrating, so she let go and drank more than usual.

"Well, of course... Do you believe it, whether you were drunk, crying, angry, or laughing last moment, as soon as you open your mouth, I can understand immediately." The cello-like voice full of magnetism murmured The lingering words tug at the heartstrings.

"Oh, don't talk about coaxing women. The actors who have acted with me have said these lines so many times that my ears are tired of hearing them." But she likes to hear him say it, and she never says it will feel disgusted.

But Enzo replied as if coaxing a little girl: "Okay, okay, next time I will definitely bring something new."

"Don't change the subject... You haven't answered me yet, how long will it take you to come back? Didn't you say you would be back by the end of March when you called last time? Now it's April, and my movie is finished. "Unconsciously, there was a hint of resentment of a little woman.

"I'm sorry, things are quite troublesome, and I still can't go back for the time being... Don't worry, in August, even under the rain of bullets, I will go to the Venice Film Festival to present flowers for you, regardless of whether you will be the queen or not."

"Okay, I'll be waiting for you to come that night."

"It should be almost morning in Italy, go to bed early, Laura."

"Well... no matter where you are on the earth now, you should be more careful."

"I will, when I come back."

……

After hanging up the phone, Enzo also sat up from the deck chair he was lying on under the parasol, and took a few deep breaths to adjust his somewhat disordered breathing.

This is a beautiful island in the Caribbean Sea, with plenty of sunshine, refreshing sea breeze, fresh air, and a natural oxygen bar created by the lush vegetation on the island. It is a very suitable place for recuperation.

Last month in Colombia, known for its drug trade, finally caught the last of Matthew's overseas dens, and fought head-on with his forces.Originally, everything was going smoothly, and everything was going according to his plan, but at the critical moment, his overdrawn body dragged his feet, and his whole body was convulsed. In the end, he ran away in embarrassment and hid himself stand up.

When he told Shamar about his physical condition and wanted him to send a temporary strong medicine by air, Shamar immediately "ordered" him not to do anything and to recuperate immediately.Otherwise, after the excitement of the temporary strong medicine is over, the body is likely to completely collapse.

But he was already in South America anyway, and for long-term considerations, he followed Shamar's suggestion and went to a small island in the Caribbean Sea that was very suitable for recuperation, and he happened to have a seaside villa on that island.

At this time, the island is at sunset.

Under the rendering of the setting sun, the waves are more intoxicatingly gentle, but also add a poignant beauty of the setting sun like blood, and the soft golden beach is also coated with a deep halo.

He didn't know how long he could see the beautiful scenery, and it was a pity that he was still the only one to enjoy the beautiful scenery.

There was a sharp pain in his chest again, and before he could restrain himself, he spit out a mouthful of blood so unexpectedly, it splashed on the golden beach, staining the fine sand red.

Looking at the blood stains on the sand, he was suddenly a little thankful... Fortunately, he was the only one here.

……

end of August—

The annual Venice International Film Festival opens.

In the dressing room, the stylist is doing the final dressing for Laura, trying to make a stunning appearance tonight.

After all, this time Laura Persson is expected to be crowned the best actress of Venice again, and the predictions of various experts are quite optimistic. The company even offered odds.

In front of the dressing table, Laura also cooperated with the stylist to take care of herself, but only glanced at the mobile phone on the dressing table from time to time.

Dino has always wanted to come to Venice tonight, but unfortunately it just happened to be a group outdoor activity before the new semester of the school started, even if he was unwilling, there was nothing he could do.Although she hopes that her son can be by her side at this potentially important moment tonight, she still hopes that her son can be more involved in his team activities, which is also very important to his life. important.

As for Enzo... still no call back from her.

"Sister Laura, are you waiting for a call?" The busy little assistant girl turned around and noticed Laura's eyes, and asked curiously.

Laura just smiled and shook her head, "It's nothing... By the way, how long is it until the awards ceremony starts?"

"Hmm... there are still three hours." The assistant replied after looking at the watch on his wrist.

"Three hours... I see, thank you."

……

Venice MarcoPolo International Airport——

Enzo, who only carried a black suitcase, got off the plane in a hurry and was thinking about how he could get to the Sarah Grande Center, the venue of the Venice Film Festival, when his cell phone rang suddenly.

"Hey, Jiaguang, tell me something quickly." After answering the phone, Enzuo said hastily.

"Enzo, has Matthew been dealt with by you?"

"Ah, I personally killed it last week... It's just that there are still a large number of privately owned arms that have not been found." Enzo said briefly.

"We have found that batch of goods, and Joseph, the head of foreign affairs of your family, is planning to use that batch of goods to escape!"

Enzo also stopped his hurried steps, and regained his composure and composure, "Speak clearly."

"That shipment has been recorded in someone else's name, and Joseph knows it. The news of Matthew's death has spread, and Joseph is panicked. He hides in the cargo and wants to go with the ship without anyone noticing it." Slip away! Our people have found out that the freighter is about to depart from the port of Mestre. Didn’t you just arrive in Venice? The distance between the two cities is very close. Hurry up to Mestre! "

Enzo lowered his head and looked at his watch. If he ran to Mestre now... tonight, Venice, can he still catch up...
