Three poisons

Xu Shuyan returned home with the hip flask in his hand, and sat alone for a while. The rain outside became heavier again, and the raindrops converged into a water curtain and slanted down from the roof.

He felt his legs hurt more.

Raising his head and looking at the empty door in confusion, Xu Shuyan stood up after thinking for a while, moved his aching feet and walked towards the door, closed the door, and the room suddenly became dark.

[Xu Shuyan, does your leg hurt?You deserve it. 】

A nightmare-like voice sounded in his mind.The black-haired young man's complexion was slightly pale, the hand clasped on the door was tightened, he shook, his face with a gentle smile was always innocent.

He added two locks to the door he had just closed, as if he were hiding from some evil spirit outside the house.

Going back to the tea table, grabbed the wine jug on the table, uncapped the bottle cap, and took two sips——

He has always been a person who is not greedy for drinks, but only borrows alcohol to fall asleep when his legs hurt in the cold weather of the south wind... Now that he drinks such spirits in twos and threes, besides burning his throat, his stomach is also warm.

In an instant, the world was spinning.

……

The relationship between Xu Shuyan and Gu Rong started from the fire ten years ago.

At that time Xu Shuyan was only sixteen or seventeen years old, and Gu Rong had just turned 21.

Before that, they could only be regarded as... acquaintances.

Gu Rong's mother's family is a well-known wealthy businessman in the south of the Yangtze River, and his father, Gu Xianzhang, had a smooth official career. He adopted Gu Rong as his adopted son.

That is a man of more honorable status.

His family background is prominent, and he has inherited countless inheritances at a young age. Gu Rong himself is tall and handsome, and he doesn't like to hang out with those dudes. Your son.

When Xu Shuyan was studying at the age of 16, for some reason, there was a new wave of copying senior Gu Rong's notes in his class.

Xu Shuyan just felt baffled.

Because Gu Rong and Bai Chulian, the two "legendary characters" who are also bloody and bloody, are the people Xu Shuyan sees when he looks up——

Gu Rong had some friendship with Bai Chulian, and the latter had always been friends with Xu Shuyan... After going back and forth, Xu Shuyan became acquainted with Gu Rong naturally.

At that time, Gu Rong was just an ordinary person who could eat and fart to Xu Shuyan.

Xu Shuyan didn't even know what these people were worshiping him for.

However, the wonderful thing is that at that time Xu Shuyan had a friend named He Tangsheng, who opened a textile factory at home, and he was a young master who didn't know how to use food, rice, oil and salt. To use fashionable words, He Tangsheng was a standard Gu Rong fanboy.

He Tangsheng knew that the Xu family and Gu Rong knew each other more or less, so he always begged Xu Shuyan to take advantage of their relationship to get the first-hand review materials of Gu Rong, the elder brother of the senior——

Naturally, Xu Shuyan couldn't talk him out, so reluctantly, he cheekily went to Gu Rongtao to get close... Fortunately, this man looked cold but easy to talk, and Xu Shuyan would always give him what he wanted tolerantly as soon as he opened his mouth.

then.

During that time, Xu Shuyan and He Tangsheng also became celebrities on campus because of their acquaintance with Gu Rong. People outside only knew that they both had first-hand information...

But they didn't know that these materials were actually brought by Xu Shuyan.

Maybe it was because of vanity or something else, He Tangsheng didn't mention the relationship with Gu Rong, but He Tangsheng just smiled and said nothing, just acquiescing.

Xu Shuyan only found it strange, and was vaguely displeased with He Tangsheng's behavior, but he tolerantly didn't say anything——

At that time, he didn't know that He Tangsheng was obsessed with Gu Rong to an unusual degree.

Until the day of their graduation ceremony, Gu Rong, who was an outstanding graduate, returned to the school to give a speech, but the auditorium caught fire.

The fire spread quickly, and when the beams of the auditorium collapsed, everyone was screaming and fleeing, Xu Shuyan was no exception...

Just running, he found that Gu Rong was not in the crowd, he hesitated for a while, then turned back to look for it.

In the end, at the back of the auditorium, he found He Tangsheng who had dragged the unconscious Gu Rong out. The young man was staggering, and a blackened piece of wood pierced his right eye. He didn't know it at all...

Seeing Xu Shuyan rushing over, he seemed relieved and fainted suddenly.

Compared to Gu Rong who was completely unharmed except for being in a bit of a mess, He Tangsheng was obviously more seriously injured. Xu Shuyan hurriedly called the medical staff to take him to the hospital, while he stayed behind to check on Gu Rong's injuries.

Unexpectedly, not long after taking He Tangsheng away, the man woke up by himself.

The first thing he saw was the dark-haired young man flipping his hair back and forth with pale fingertips.

He raised his hand and clasped his wrist: "Xu Shuyan?"

Xu Shuyan was taken aback for a moment, then said, "It's me."

Gu Rong was silent for a few seconds, thought for a while, and asked in a slightly hoarse voice: "You saved me?"

The first time Xu Shuyan actually wanted to say no.

But when the words came to his lips, he suddenly realized He Tangsheng's feelings for Gu Rong——

And this is not good news for him.

Xu Shuyan had never been interested in Gu Rong's notes, but when he ran to the door of Gu's mansion countless times under the guise of "my classmates asked me to come, I had to come", he vaguely sensed that there might be something wrong with him.

This kind of strangeness is especially strong when He Tangsheng expresses his acquiescence to his classmates bragging about his relationship with Gu Rong every time.

And today, this sentiment has finally reached its peak.

Like a mad dog out of the stable, it shattered all his rationality and morality.

Xu Shuyan could see the marriage lines of all other people, but he couldn't see his own... So on this day, Xu Shuyan made perhaps the biggest wrong decision in his life——

Facing Gu Rong's question, he also learned to remain silent.

She avoided answering, just bent down and approached the man and asked, "Is there any pain in your body, do you want to go to the hospital?"

This was Xu Shuyan's first mistake.

……

The fire seemed to burn and hurt his skin even in a dream.

Xu Shuyan was rescued by a sudden knock on the door.

Turning over and sitting up, he didn't know how long he had slept. Wiping the sweat off his brow, he heard the knocking on the door like "Dong Dong" outside the door, paused and asked, "Who is it?"

The voice was so hoarse that he was afraid when he heard it, and his head hurt like a needle.

"Boss Xu, Boss Xu! I'm Xiaocui, the maid of Mrs. Li's family in Xilaifeng Restaurant. Our proprietress made a cheongsam at your place last month, do you still remember?" The voice outside the door sounded muffled, "The proprietress We are going to have a distinguished guest today, so we are waiting for your Peony Fugui black-bottomed cheongsam, if you don’t give it to her before sunset tonight, she will refuse to accept it!”

Hearing this, Xu Shuyan slid off the bed without putting on his shoes, so he limped and hopped to open the door——

The figure of Mrs. Li in Xilaifeng Restaurant, not to mention the cheongsam, even to make a pair of underpants would have to tear two feet of cloth... The cheongsam Xu Shuyan can be used as a cover when it is finished. His eyes were really hot, so he threw it aside.

Now that he is threatened like this, even though he has received a deposit, apart from Mrs. Li, there is no other person in Guyan City who can take over the cheongsam!

"Come here, come on, speak up if you have something to say! Why are you always threatening people!"

When he opened the door, he found that the sun was about to set outside. Only then did Xu Shuyan realize that he hadn't slept for long at all, so he made sure to catch up with Mrs. Li to welcome the distinguished guests.

Right now, Xu Shuyan was not in the mood to think about the dirty things in his dream.

After returning to the sewing machine, he was busy for a while, and before dark, he took the brocade box containing the cheongsam between his hands, and holding a bamboo umbrella, he arrived at the Xilaifeng Restaurant.

Putting the umbrella away, shaking the water droplets, he raised his hand to pat the water droplets off his shoulders, when he suddenly heard the sound of a car outside the door.

At the same time, his leg began to ache faintly as if he had received some kind of induction. He was slightly taken aback, feeling a bad premonition in his heart.

Looking up, he saw that the door of the car parked outside the restaurant was opened by the adjutant holding a black umbrella, and a well-polished black military boot stretched out from the door.

Immediately afterwards, a man in a dark military uniform, a military cap and black leather gloves bent down and got out of the car.

His face was stern, and he habitually looked around——

When that cold gaze swept over the gate of Xilaifeng Restaurant, Xu Shu shrank his cigarette butt, and hid behind a fat man who happened to pass by the door.

Stretching out half of his head to look outside, he saw the man who was standing at the door walking into Xilaifeng Restaurant. Just as he stood firm, he was looking sideways and wanted to say something to the adjutant behind him... The car arrived, Bai Chulian and Bai Yi got out of the same car, Bai Yi followed behind Bai Chulian, his eyebrows downcast.

Huo Xian jumped out from the next car.

Huo Xian's complexion was not very good, it was just because he went to the theater to invite Ji Lianyue before he came, so of course he was rejected.

They are all acquaintances.

But Xu Shuyan absolutely didn't want to go up to greet them at this time, he didn't even have time to hide... He casually stuffed the brocade box in his hand to the shopkeeper who was busy in front of the cabinet, and said "I'll collect the final payment in a few days", He wanted to take advantage of the chaos and hurry away.

As a result, I just walked out two steps.

He was mixed in the crowd, and he was about to walk out of the gate...Suddenly, his waist was embraced from behind by a steel-like arm, and he was pulled back steadily after a big turn, and a thunderous voice sounded: "Yo, Little tailor, why are you here?!"

Looking back, he saw Huo Xian's surprised face.

——With such a loud voice, it naturally attracted the attention of everyone at the entrance of the restaurant.

Bai Chulian looked for the sound, and then frowned.

Bai Yi beside him raised his eyebrows.

Behind the two, Gu Rongwen, who was lowering his head to talk to the adjutant beside him, also paused in his speech, and turned his head slowly, but his face was expressionless.

Xu Shuyan didn't know what kind of reaction to put on, so he could only face paralyzed, slapped the arms around his waist away, and said calmly: "It's just passing by...it's not relative or reason, please don't move your hands, Commander Huo." foot."

Huo Xian had a question mark on his face.

Everyone didn't even realize why Boss Xu, who usually had a smile on his face, was so irritable today.

Among the crowd, it was Gu Rong who reacted first, staring at Xu Shuyan with those dark and deep pupils for a while, then curled his thin lips, and suddenly revealed a chilling smile.
