husband from hell

Chapter 244 A Red Line

I wanted to get out of the car, but Grandpa's expression darkened, and he raised his voice and said, "Lu Qiao, do as I say!"

If the car stops... I don't know what will happen, maybe, at this moment, the second grandfather will think of some way to cut it off and take Mr. Deng away again.

This kind of thing cannot be allowed to happen, otherwise, all the hard work will be in vain.

"How is it?" The driver asked calmly, "Do you want to get off?"

"No." I stared at the back of the driver's head and said in a deep voice, "Please keep driving, the sooner the better."

The driver didn't answer, but just speeded up. The car was driving too fast, and I couldn't see the two of them soon, but there was a muffled sound behind them, as if there was a sound of Yin Qi colliding.

Grandpa is the patriarch after all, he has something he must do.

Second Grandpa... What kind of difficulties do you have!
My heart lifted, as if hanging on the edge of a cliff, I felt a sense of crisis, but I had to keep going, they had already paid, and I couldn't let things fail.

Earrings looked at me tremblingly, and Mr. Deng also said with great interest: "Huang Mao, look, if the two old brothers fight, I don't know who can beat the other..."

Earrings couldn't even say "I'm not Huangmao", but murmured: "It's hard to say... I just hope that the two old people don't get hurt by both."

Both sides are hurting... Isn't it already hurting both sides?
In fact, this fight, no matter sooner or later, has to be fought.

I was confused, but I insisted on not looking over there.

I'm afraid I can't help it.

The driver was also very considerate, and he drove fast and steadily. Not long after, the car slid onto the ground in Xuanyin, and stopped firmly in front of the noodle shop: "Here we are."

I didn't know why the paper car stopped at the same place every time, but now I understand that this is the so-called stop sign.

Now the sky is pale and the sun is about to rise.A ray of morning breeze came in from the open car window, refreshing.

The carriage was cramped, and Mr. Deng had a big belly. He seemed to be nestled in the seat, and he struggled to move. I hurriedly kicked off the thin earrings first, and then helped Deng, who was uncomfortable in the car. The gentleman got down from the seat, looked sideways, and saw that the tail of the paper car was scorched, he couldn't help but turned his head and said to the driver: "Please tell me about the damage to this car, I will try my best..."

"It's okay." The driver waved his hand to me without looking back: "I will ask the person who called the car to collect the maintenance fee."

"The person who called the taxi?" I frowned: "The one from last time?"

The last time I went to Ah Jiu's place, the driver also said that someone asked him to come.

The driver didn't answer, and the paper car slid away again in the morning mist, and gradually disappeared.

"Oh, this running around is really thrilling and exciting," Mr. Deng took a breath, saw that the Love You Never Change noodle restaurant opened early, so he went straight in, and said with a smile: "I'm getting old, I just have to eat first." Something to suppress the shock."

I followed Mr. Deng in, looking left and right with ear studs, and followed in with a bitter face, still muttering: "Then... where did my fourth aunt and grandma go..."

In fact, I have been suspicious for a long time. Who is that strange old man who smells exactly like Wei Qiancheng? He led us in, and why?
I used to suspect that the old man was disguised by Wei Qiancheng, but judging from this matter, not only is he not Wei Qiancheng, but he even wants to do the opposite of Wei Qiancheng.

There are too many things, it is best to start from the beginning, one by one, and find out one by one.

After entering the noodle shop, Mr. Deng sat in front of the bar with ease, like a regular customer: "Hey, I haven't seen you in decades, it's still the same inside."

"Ok?"

The owner of the noodle shop wiped the water stains on the plate with one hand, and said dryly, "Are you still alive? I thought you were already dead."

I have heard this sentence several times, but it seems to be the mantra of my grandfather's generation.

These two people seem to have known each other for a long time.

Also, the boss of the underworld station, who knows how long he has lived.

"I'm just kidding, I'm probably too fat, and Mr. Yin is too lazy to pull it." Mr. Deng said: "Three bowls are big."

Earring said weakly: "I can't eat it, just ask for a smaller portion."

As soon as Mr. Deng heard it, he said, "Those three are big and one is small."

The boss yelled at the back as usual, but no one answered. Speaking of which, I still don't know who the cook in the back kitchen of the noodle shop is.

"It's been a while, you've gathered again." The boss put the cleaned plate back: "Xuanyin is going to be lively again."

"That's right, Changsheng will come out again, of course it will be lively." Then, Mr. Deng said a famous line from Zhu Ziqing in "Moonlight in the Lotus Pond", with a tune: "The excitement belongs to them, and I have nothing."

The boss looked at the Yanzhi River from a distance, and unconsciously sighed: "It's fine when it's over."

I don't know what it was like before?
After a while, the boss turned around and went to the back kitchen, took the noodles and put them on the dining table. Mr. Deng rubbed the oily hands that still smelled of roast chicken, picked up the chopsticks, and ate with great enjoyment: "The taste is always delicious. Unchanged."

"Your appetite has not changed." The restaurant owner said with a blank expression.

"Your business is still the same as before?" Mr. Deng ate noodles and soup nonchalantly, sucking sharply: "And that bowl of flowers to bluff people?"

"What are you bluffing?" The restaurant owner said unhappily, "It's because you don't believe me that you're single."

Even if Erding and I have no appetite, the boss gave us noodles in front of us. Neither Erding nor I moved. We each have our own concerns, who can eat it?

Seeing Mr. Deng eating happily, I couldn't help asking: "Mr. Deng, I would like to ask about the matter of life extension, is there any conflict with the technique of yin and yang to control ghosts?"

"Naturally, you are the yin and yang technique of controlling ghosts formed by your original life with the other party. You have replaced it with a new lifespan. How can you continue to maintain it?" Mr. Deng clicked his lips and waved to the boss: "Come again One bowl! Add more onions!"

The boss responded.

Sure enough, it was exactly the same as what Calamus told me.

Cheng Ke knew about this matter, but he never talked about it.

"Then..." I continued to look at the boss: "After disabling the technique of yin and yang to control ghosts..."

"The ghost disappears, and the memory about that ghost can also be taken away by the ghost," Mr. Deng said, "It's like the Yin-Yang technique of controlling ghosts has never happened to you."

Cheng Ke, that's what you thought at the beginning, right?So... I don't even want to say it.

"Lu Qiao..." Earrings also heard it: "Is Cheng Ke..."

"What is it?" Cheng Ke's clear voice sounded.

I turned around, and Cheng Ke's slender figure appeared at the door of the store against the rising sun.

The whole figure seemed to be plated with a golden edge, which dazzled the eyes.

I stared blankly at his sharp-edged, almost perfect profile.

Very familiar, how many times have my fingers touched his face?But it was very strange, I remembered those fireflies from a hundred years ago.

"Hey," Mr. Deng said hurriedly when he saw Cheng Ke coming, "how are Crazy Yang and Yunchang?"

"It is said that we have something to discuss in private." Cheng Ke said: "It is a good discussion."

Only then did I feel a little relieved. Finally, the second grandpa and grandpa could use a "talk" method.

Cheng Ke looked at me, and just about to speak, I stood up first, and said to Erding: "I want to say a few words to Cheng Ke, Erding, you have taken care of Mr. Deng, if something goes wrong..."

"How many times have you threatened..." Earring said with a bitter face, "I know, you have Pleasant Goat."

After getting this answer, I turned to Cheng Ke and said, "Come here."

Cheng Ke stretched out his hand and wanted to hold my hand, but I still wanted to shake it off, but he insisted on clenching it tightly. No matter how hard I struggled, he just wouldn't let go.

I was the one who asked him out, but instead I was dragged away by him.

The Rouge River exudes a faint white mist under the morning light, the reeds are all yellow, and the surrounding willows and poplars are mottled in color, so cold.

Cheng Ke is much taller than me, looked down at me, and said clearly, "Why are you unhappy?"

I looked up at his clear peach blossom eyes: "What do you think?"

"Calamus?" Cheng Ke's voice lowered, and he spit out each word, all of which were terribly pleasant: "Are you jealous?"

Speaking of Calamus... I pursed my lips: "Calamus, sure enough, the first thing that comes to mind will always be the most important thing to you."

Cheng Ke didn't expect that the person who is usually most willing to pretend to calm me down is so angry today: "About her, I can explain it to you clearly..."

"Live and die for her, fulfill your promise for her," I looked at him, even if I didn't want to, my eyes still fell on the circle of red lines, but I stubbornly pretended not to see, and said coolly: " Isn't there a deep affection between you and her? I have stepped into your affection for no reason, without knowing it or knowing it!
I look similar to her, and I have the same horoscope with her, so I became a key in your agreement. Now that you meet again, you can rebuild the old one, but you did not take it out of your sense of responsibility to me. I throw it away?But you feel even more guilty towards Calamus, because of this guilt, you..."

"Lu Qiao!" Cheng Ke frowned, "Can you listen to me?"

"How can I listen to you?" The flame in my heart was burning higher and higher, mixed with inexplicable annoyance, but I couldn't stop no matter what: "You have to tell me that you were waiting for her , so many life-to-life things have happened, so the guilt makes you more affectionate? Yes, you all have your own reasons, I am just a victim of a deviation, and now you like me too, I know , but... dare you say that you have no attachment to Calamus?"

I've been thinking about the red line thing...

But while this was brewing, Cheng Ke suddenly put one arm around my waist and put the other on the back of my head. Before I could react, that pretty unreal face was pressed down, and the thin lips were blocked heavily. On the mouth that I just didn't finish.

The familiar smell of sandalwood wafted out, he hit my front teeth so hard that it hurt, and the force he sucked made my tongue numb.

I don't know why, but he is suddenly so aggressive, so strong and urgent.

A heartbeat that was already too fast was hit by him like this, and it almost jumped to the throat, the flames burned to the cheeks, and the whole body was hot, and the inside of the head was blank, and there was no time for the eyes. When I closed it, I saw that he was fully committed, close to me, his thick eyelashes trembling slightly, unhurried, even a little arrogant.

The cold touch is overwhelming, and I feel like I'm stuck on an iceberg that won't melt for a thousand years.

There was a slight tremor on his body, but Bingshan noticed it, and slowly let go of his hand, raised his head, Taohua's big eyes were calm: "I told you to listen to me, why are you disobedient."

"I..." I couldn't help but swallowed unconsciously, noticing his playful eyes, I quickly pretended to be calm again, trying to break away from him: "You say what you say, in broad daylight, Don't be a hooligan!"

"Hooligans? If you really want to play hooligans, you won't be here." Although Cheng Ke didn't have to breathe, he still let out a breath, and his slender arms forcibly pulled me over: "I have an agreement with Calamus, However, it is only an agreement to return the longevity, and there is no other agreement."

"Ah?" I was stunned: "What do you mean by that? Didn't you make an agreement to 'live a good life'?"

These five words, like five wounds, were engraved on my heart, causing a burst of pain.

"This 'live a good life' was agreed with each other." Cheng Ke pursed his thin lips: "But later, other things happened, which changed this agreement."

"Changed?" I suddenly felt a little overwhelmed. Can things that are set in stone be changed?So, I had to be like a repeater, only knowing to repeat: "What do you mean, how did it change, and what did it become?"

"It's changed. I'll sleep for a hundred years and wait for her. After returning the immortality to bring her back to life, each of us will forget about each other." Cheng Ke said seriously: "That's an agreement as an old friend, not a man and a woman like you. Feelings."

My heart trembled when I said this.

"You and Calamus?" I opened my mouth with difficulty: "Old friends?"

Cheng Ke nodded with thin lips: "The relationship with her can only be an old friend, because the relationship between a man and a woman is gone."

"Obviously so lingering, you say there is no?" Cheng Ke has always been as convinced as I believe in the dictionary and the law, and I can see his guilt towards Calamus: "You shouldn't, Are you going to lie to me?"

"Why should I lie to you," Cheng Ke said, "I'll tell you all about why I feel guilty towards her right now. Are you making trouble or listening?"
