let me look at you

Chapter 102

Han Shu changed his normal appearance in front of her, on the contrary, he was very serious, so serious that the blizzard in Ju Nian's heart began to condense into arctic ice.

"Tell me." She laughed out of her flustered feeling, and that laughter sounded so abrupt to herself in such a night.

After the long Spring Festival holiday, Ju Nian went back to work in the fabric shop.The days seem to have returned to the original track again, except that Feiming is no longer around her.

On the seventh day of the first lunar month, the festive atmosphere is still very strong, but it is an off-season for fabric stores, because most customers will choose to buy new home items before the Spring Festival, as a good omen for the renewal of Vientiane.Ju Nian works the day shift, so he is free all day long.

When she got off work, she bought a copy of the evening newspaper of the day at the newsstand near the fabric shop as usual, and sat on the bus to read it all the way home.The newspapers are colorful, mostly advertisements for the activities of major businesses during the Spring Festival. After watching the entertainment news in the orange year, I went to the social news. There was a place the size of a tofu cube in the corner. Tuned blood case.It is said that a man and a woman had a dispute in a rental house. In the end, the man stabbed the woman three times in the abdomen. The woman died on the spot. The man tried to escape and was arrested by the police at the station a few hours after the incident.It also stated at the end of the news that the police confirmed that the woman who died was an illegal sex worker, and the identity of the assailant is still under investigation.

Ju Nian watched the news on the swaying bus. Such reports have emerged in an endless stream in recent years. Those who are on the margins of society, their lives are like candles in the wind. It is not surprising that they will be extinguished at any time. .People watch too much, and it doesn't attract much attention.Ju Nian thought to himself that Ping Feng's decision might be correct, no matter what, if he leaves that profession and finds an even mediocre man, at least he can have a stable life.

There was no news of Pingfeng leaving Ju Nian's house that day. She is not a mother-in-law. After saying goodbye, she will not want to leave or stay.I don't know if she and Wangnian have left, and where have they gone?Ju Nian has completely lost contact with her parents, and she has no way to inquire. After thinking for two days, she has slowly begun to accept that Ping Feng and Wang Nian are together. A man who does not dislike her and treats her well is what Ping Feng wants. up.At this time, Pingfeng was more concerned about Ju Nian than Wang Nian.The so-called siblings are actually just what she thinks.Now she only wants Wangnian to treat Pingfeng better.

When she was about to get out of the car, she folded the newspaper and put it in her bag, thinking that Feiming would be in the operating room tomorrow.She visited Feiming once after get off work yesterday, and she was still thin, but it could be seen that she was really happy and satisfied because she was back with her mother.Chen Jiejie was worried about taking care of them, so she stayed in the hospital all day long, and even took Zhou Ziyi to have dinner with them in the hospital after get off work.Ju Nian sat beside Feiming's hospital bed for a while, seeing that she was doing well, he didn't stay too long.Ju Nian deliberately transferred shifts with his colleagues so that he could wait for the results of the surgery in the hospital.After being sad for too long, when this day finally came, she was not so anxious.If Feiming can come out safely, it must be thanks to God. If the one who should come will come sooner or later, then Ju Nian has been praying all night these days, just so that the child will not have to endure so much pain.

Passing by Uncle Cai's small shop, Uncle Cai's wife stopped Ju Nian and handed her an EMS package, saying it was delivered more than an hour ago. Seeing that she was not there, Uncle Cai took it on his behalf.Thank you Ju Nian, and took the blue and white hard paper envelope in her hand, she forgot how many years it had been since she received it.There was no sender's address on the envelope, and Ju Nian thought it was from Sinian's cousin, but after looking at the postmark, it was from a local area.

If cousin Sinian came back, he would definitely come to see them at the first time. It should not be him, then it would be Han Shu. I don't know what new tricks he is playing.At this time, Uncle Cai also came out from the back room, and when he saw Ju Nian, he squinted his eyes and smiled, and asked, "Is the young man here today?"

Ju Nian answered with a smile.From the time when Han Shu followed secretly before, he now appeared in the vicinity of Ju Nian's house every now and then, not to mention running out from Ju Nian's house early in the morning of the new year to buy firecrackers. Uncle Cai and the others saw it. Think of Ju Nian and Han Shu as a couple.Ju Nian didn't explain, if she said too much, I'm afraid that Uncle Cai would think her as a girl and be shy.

But Uncle Cai asked casually, and he was right.Han Shu did have something to do today. He reluctantly reported to the city courtyard. It was his first day at work. Although he was dissatisfied, he still did not forget to invite all colleagues in the department to dinner after get off work. He is so good at human relations It's no wonder that he can eat well no matter where he goes.

At noon, Han Shu specifically called Ju Nian, told her about this matter, and said that he would not be coming today.Ju Nian felt it was really inexplicable, she didn't let him come here at first, he always ran here for nothing, and it was fine if he didn't come, but he still needed to make a special phone call to explain this, so it was only natural, as if someone really came with him Make an appointment.She paused for a while, and Han Shu complained about the new environment on the phone, there was nothing he could do about it, if he hung up on him, maybe he would go crazy and call the landline in the store.What's even more helpless is that even Uncle Cai knows that if he doesn't come, something must be wrong.

The Year of the Orange opened the door and went home.She is not impatient, even though she was a little puzzled about the express, she kept holding it, and only slowly opened it when she sat on a chair after putting it away.Inside the envelope was an old newspaper bag wrapped tightly with transparent glue. Ju Nian opened it one by one to reveal the true contents.

It wasn't a letter, not even a sheet of paper, there was only a stack of photos in the old newspaper, Ju Nian only looked at the top one, and couldn't sit there peacefully anymore. Gestures are intertwined.

Even though Ju Nian knew that there was no one else beside him but himself, when he suddenly saw something like this, he couldn't help being dumbfounded and blushing. Who is that person in the photo?
The first few photos were dimly lit, and the poses of the characters inside were distorted. The quality of the photos was average, and it was not very clear. We could only tell from the furnishings that it was a not-so-luxury hotel room.Ju Nian took the envelope and took a closer look at the recipient. The address was her home, and the recipient was indeed Xie Ju Nian. But who would send her these things, and what does it have to do with her?
She scrolled down one by one, the man was naked from the beginning to the end, but some of the women were still wearing clothes similar to school uniforms, and finally stopped at a certain one, she saw the woman's face clearly, unexpectedly It was Pingfeng, whom she knew all too well!It's just that because of the ridiculous and outdated two pigtails on her head, Ju Nian didn't recognize her at a glance in the first few photos with profiles.

It was about Pingfeng, Ju Nian couldn't sit still anymore, she stood up, and quickly turned backwards.Did the mail come from Pingfeng?Ju Nian knew that she had been doing this business before, but she would not take photos like this and send them to friends for no reason.The man was of medium build, but he could be seen to be a bit old. Ju Nian stared at his front face for a long time, and the more he looked at him, the more familiar he became, and he couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat.

She was even familiar with that face, with the shadow of a person she often saw, but much older.Although she refused to believe it, her eyes would not deceive her. It was really Han Shewen, Han Shu's father, the president of the Provincial High People's Court, Wang Nian's leader, Han Shewen who used to live upstairs in Xie's house when he was a child!
This discovery made Ju Nian feel cold all over his body, and even felt a little uncomfortable in his stomach.Dean Han took good care of himself, but his face could still be seen as that of a man who was gradually getting old. This was in stark contrast to Ping Feng's plain face with two pigtails. The two bodies, One is old, the other is delicate, entangled.

Ju Nian didn't say a few words to Dean Han, but he vaguely remembered his serious face from his childhood memory and Han Shu's description.In the impression of Ju Nian, he has always been an overly majestic, but always serious elder, but every gesture he puts on Pingfeng is so wretched, what is real in this world where masks are everywhere? of?

Ju Nian finished reading all the photos, organized them mechanically, and sealed them firmly back in the envelope. She didn't dare to look at it a second time, as if it was a Pandora's box, which contained a devil that could destroy everything.

Now she understood who the "old fat sheep" Ping Feng was talking about. She might have known about his relationship with Han Shu a long time ago, so she never said it out.With Dean Han's status and status today, what is there that he can't get?Even if he abandoned his family and was greedy for beauty, and some women voluntarily threw themselves into his arms, how could he choose Pingfeng who was soliciting customers in the poor streets.Pingfeng's attire was quite weird, which must be due to the strange taste of the client. Dean Han pressed Pingfeng, as if he had reconquered the youth that belonged to his age.Could it be that he also knows that his needs are so ugly that his elegant and virtuous wife can't accept them, and because of his status, he doesn't dare to make such demands on women who are closer to him, so he chooses A prostitute who is different from him, so that he can make whatever demands he wants, so that he feels as safe as in another world?Ju Nian just couldn't figure out, as Pingfeng's lover, Dean Han's driver Xie Wangnian, what kind of role did he play in this ugly drama?Does he accept it helplessly, or is he willing to thread a needle?On the night of the crash in the alley, Wangnian was driving a black Audi, and Pingfeng happily met her "Old Sheep" for the first time. Suffocating with the same blood flowing through him.

Ju Nian took out his cell phone tremblingly, and immediately called Ping Feng. She wanted to ask the reason of the matter. If she really sent the photo, how could she get involved with Dean Han? Let Ju Nian know.

Pingfeng's phone was turned off.The battery of her old mobile phone has already had problems, and the screen will automatically go black after a while, and it is not the first time that she cannot get through.Ju Nian sat down flustered and short of breath, and she found that she seemed to have thought of the answer that was about to come out.No wonder Pingfeng paid so much attention to Han Shu's case when she heard about Han Shu's case that day, because she knew about Han Shu's father's scandal, and she already had these photos in her hands. Maybe this was a "big thing" she and Wangnian did ", they colluded to secretly take these photos, and used them to blackmail Dean Han, or sold them to someone with ulterior motives in order to make a fortune, and then flew away.But before Pingfeng left, she knew about the things between Tang Ye and Han Shu. She used her extremely simple logic to deduce a theory, that is, if Dean Han collapsed, no one would make things difficult for Han Shu, and Tang Ye might not have to take the blame. , the two men who can give Ju Nian happiness will be relieved, so she sent a copy of the photo to Ju Nian before she left, hoping to help her only friend.

Pingfeng had good intentions, but Ju Nian couldn't think so simply.Those people and those things were like pieces of a jigsaw puzzle piece piece by piece in her mind, gradually becoming clearer.

Dean Han's interference in Han Shu's case may not be directly related to the Construction Bureau's case. His hands cannot be stretched so far, and Tang Ye should not be the one who is responsible for the scapegoat. Otherwise, Han Shu's gradual and in-depth investigation would be impossible. I didn't notice it.Pingfeng not only knows her "old fat sheep", she also knows the man who pays the old fat sheep. It was possible that he had indirect connections with the people behind the case, maybe they had been bribed by the same person, and he was afraid that a single incident would affect his whole body and implicate himself sooner or later.Originally, he thought that Han Shu's petty troubles were just scratching the surface, so he let his son investigate. Who knew that the son he taught was so serious about this case. , Chi Yu was bound to suffer, he panicked, that's why he stopped Han Shu, even at the expense of father and son.

Ping Feng is too naive, who can Ju Nian give these photos to?media?Disciplinary inspection department?With those layers of protective networks, the photos would have been processed before they had time to see the light. Even if she was lucky enough to bring down Han Shewen, the people behind Tang Ye were also high-ranking and powerful, and Tang Ye would still have to bear the scapegoat.As for Han Shu, no one forced him to give up the case anymore, but Ju Nian was willing to bet that even if Han Shu was asked to give up a hundred cases, he would not want to see his father's ulterior side.For Han Shu, these photos were enough to destroy all his faith and all his feelings for his father as a son.Pingfeng sincerely helps Ju Nian, but at the same time she throws a hot potato to Ju Nian.

Next, when Ju Nian cooks, takes a bath, and sleeps, his mind is filled with those pictures and various problems.If Pingfeng and Wangnian's "big event" really relied on these photos for profit, then she and Wangnian, these two idiots, don't know how dangerous it is. Haven't they thought about the consequences of the matter?And what should I do with these photos?
For Han Shu?Han Shu will collapse, she doesn't want to see Han Shu anymore, and she doesn't want to see that scene.

A fire?Do Pingfeng and Wangnian still have these photos?What will they use it for?Blackmail Dean Han?Sell ​​to someone with bad intentions?The result was equally unimaginable.Paper can't contain fire, if Han Shu will find out sooner or later, it's better to make a plan before he is sad, so that things won't develop in a worse direction.

Ju Nian pressed the photo under the pillow, tossing and turning sleeplessly.She has always been a person who talks little and has a delicate heart, but the more she thinks, the more disturbed she becomes.Simple people may be more blessed.

In the middle of the night, she finally couldn't hold back and fell into a dream. Fortunately, she slept very lightly, so she noticed the first ring of the phone.Ju Nian thought it was Ping Feng, so he quickly grabbed it to pick it up, but it was Han Shu.

"Ju Nian, come out, I'm at your door." Han Shu's voice was calm and weird.She checked the time, it was three fifteen in the morning.Although he was a rascal in the past, he rarely came here in the middle of the night to scare people.

"What... what's the matter?" Ju Nian stammered when he was nervous.

Han Shu refused to speak on the phone, but just asked her to come out.

"I have something to tell you."

That kind of ominous premonition came like a blizzard in Ju Nian's heart. Could it be that something happened to him?She couldn't figure out which one of the threads was the cause of the panic in her heart, but she made a decision in the short moment of getting out of bed.Maybe she should give the photo to Han Shu, maybe he would hate her because of it, but she vaguely felt that it was right.

She took out the envelope from under the pillow, put on some clothes and ran out.As expected, Han Shu was at the door, with his back to her, looking at the dark place, not knowing what to think.His back was always straight when he stood, but now he seemed a little stiff.

Han Shu heard the noise and turned around immediately.

Ju Nian opened the door, "Come in and say."

He nodded silently, followed her into the room, neither of them sat down.

Han Shu took a breath, and seemed to be thinking about how to speak, while Ju Nian held the envelope, also hesitating.

"I have something to tell you."

They almost said this sentence in unison, and each other was taken aback.

In the end, Ju Nian held back, "You speak first."

Han Shu changed his normal appearance in front of her, on the contrary, he was very serious, so serious that the blizzard in Ju Nian's heart began to condense into arctic ice.

"Tell me." She laughed out of her flustered feeling, and that laughter sounded so abrupt to herself in such a night.

"Xie Wangnian had an accident. I just heard that he killed someone and was arrested by the police. Your parents are going crazy..."

"Who did he kill?" Ju Nian's voice was stiff and hollow.

Being so close, she could even see Han Shu's Adam's apple slipping due to tension.

"Your friend is dead," he said.

Ju Nian suddenly remembered the social news in the evening paper.The answer was already in front of her eyes, but she realized it later.

Ping Feng!

At that moment, Ju Nian seemed to see blood on the clean blue and white envelope in his hand, and it was covered with Pingfeng's blood!

The envelope fell from her hand without warning, showing its ugly appearance from the opened edge.

"Are you okay, Ju Nian." Han Shu supported Ju Nian's arm, then bent down to pick up the things that fell on the ground.

Then, he saw those pictures.
