the knife of love

Chapter 156 Contact her and ask to meet
Su Jue said that Hakant currently has a population of 20, of which only 5 are local residents, and the rest are all immigrants and businessmen from China, India or Pakistan. They are engaged in jade mining, trafficking, processing and sales here. That is to say, most of the wealth of the entire Pagan is in the hands of other countries, and the locals in Myanmar are basically in the middle and lower classes.

The government sells the jade mining rights and collects taxes from jade sales to support the economy, and there are local armed forces, that is, the Independence Army. The Independence Army will compete for valuable sites and make profits in exchange for weapons and support the army, so Violence has occurred frequently in Myanmar in recent years, a large part of which is due to the intensification of conflicts between government forces and independent forces.

Tang Jingcheng knew nothing about these things before coming to Pagan.

The Myanmar in her impression is the beautiful photos on the Internet, thousands of pagodas, and monks everywhere. This is the peaceful side of Myanmar to the world. As for the other side, wars, riots and killings are hidden in these remote areas. deep in the mountains.

Tang Jingcheng returned to his room at the Yudu Hotel and took a shower. He washed off all the sweat and dust on his body, changed into a light T-shirt and sat at the window looking at the Wulu River and distant mountains not far away. Small huts are strewn along the banks of the river valley.

The slowly setting sun hangs on the top of the verdant mountain, adding another layer of hazy and mysterious to the whole Pagan.

This is a place where people love and hate each other.

How many people came to this land to dig jade with the dream of getting rich overnight, and how many people died or lingered on this land.

Tang Jingcheng suddenly remembered a certain person and certain scene.

She and him once sat drinking tea in a restaurant in a small town at the foot of Jingmai Mountain, and it seemed to be the same. In the evening, when the sun was setting, she said she liked it there, where there was peace and tranquility.

At that time, he refuted and raised his finger to point to the distant mountains.

He asked Tang Jingcheng: "Do you know what that is?"

"Mountain!"

"What about the mountain?"

"Myanmar!"

"It's only 35 kilometers from our place to the China-Myanmar border. Everything you see now is just an appearance. Wait another five or six hours. After dark, the entire border will be bustling with food, timber, stone, and even drugs and drugs. Arms, all the shady deals happen on the border, and just 35 kilometers away from where you are, there is still a civil war in Burma, as far as I know there was a riot in a town there two days ago ,died

There are more than 20 people, let alone the major jade mines. In the event of a landslide or heavy rain, all the miners will be buried inside, and even the corpses will not be found! "

What he said was still vivid in her ears, but she didn't believe it at all at the time, but after walking around this place, she realized that everything was true.

Tang Jingcheng bent his legs on the chair and hugged himself. In this posture, his lower abdomen could be easily squeezed by his knees.

Five months in a week.

The book says that a five-month-old baby has basically taken shape, and you should be able to tell whether it is a boy or a girl when you do a B-ultrasound.

She never asked that man whether he liked boys or girls, but she still remembered what he once said,

"Do you like children very much?"

"good…"

"Just okay?"

"Cough... I still like it better."

"why?"

"There is no reason, I just feel that having a child is a family."

He compared the child to a writer, and he once wanted to really give her a home.

Tang Jingcheng rested his head gently on his knees, and rubbed the jade lock and key on his wrist with his fingers.

"I will be a good father, Tang Jingcheng, you have to trust me on this."

Tang Jingcheng still remembered the tone in which he said these words at that time, with determination and urgency, as if he was eager to prove something, but what about now?She sneaked to Burma alone with the child, and she planned to keep him from knowing about the child for the rest of her life.

It's just that thinking of these things for no reason now makes me panic again.

Is she too selfish?
Even if she hated this man again, he was the father of the child after all, and this could never be changed. What right did she have to deprive the child of the right to have a father?
In other words, how could she put her hatred on the unborn child?
Tang Jingcheng lay quietly on his knees, looking at the mountains in the distance, the night gradually fell, the miners went back in twos and threes, and small dim lights lit up in the mountains, that was the meaning of home.

She finally took out her mobile phone, but fortunately, there was a bar signal, and she dialed the phone.

The international call didn't go through the first time, and the busy signal came when I tried again. After the third time, I finally beeped, but the Chinese voice on the other side of the phone indicated that the other party had turned off the phone.

At that moment, Tang Jingcheng felt how ridiculous he was. After running all the way to Myanmar, he still had to take the initiative to contact him, but he couldn't get in touch. Maybe it was fate.

Stop calling, she put the phone away, feeling that her behavior was a bit cheap.

Just as she was about to go back to bed and sleep for a while, there was a knock on the door, and Tang Jingcheng went to open the door.

Su Jue was really stunned standing outside the door.

It was the first time he experienced the girl's casualness. The upper body was a loose white round neck T-shirt, the lower abdomen was gathered, the hem barely covered the legs, and the two slender legs were directly exposed outside.

Su Jue swallowed without realizing it, and scratched his forehead with his hand: "Taking a bath?"

"After washing, you just came back from the mining area?"

"Well, but I've gone back to my room to take a shower, and I'm here to take you to dinner."

"Oh." Tang Jingcheng stared at Su Jue and found that he had already changed his clothes and his hair was half wet, "Then let's go."

She lifted her leg and was about to go out.

Su Jue took a deep breath and pulled her back: "Are you planning to go out dressed like this?"

"Ah?" Tang Jingcheng realized that he was barefoot and didn't wear long pants, so he rubbed his toes on the ground habitually, "Sorry, wait for me, I'll put on my pants."

"..."

After Tang Jingcheng returned to the room, the phone in her hand beeped. There should be a new text message coming in. She didn't care. She pulled on a pair of loose beach shorts, put the phone in her trouser pocket, and sucked the two of them. Word dragged out.

"Okay, let's go."

……

The two had dinner in the restaurant of Yudu Hotel. Su Jue didn't speak much. Tang Jingcheng noticed that his face was a little gloomy, and he was always thinking about something.

Had those men in uniform come and said something to him in the afternoon?
"Have you not closed your eyes since last night?"

"Almost, there are too many things."

"You have to go to sleep. Look, you have dark circles under your eyelids." Tang Jingcheng pointed at him with his hand.

Su Jue smiled: "I only sleep four hours a day in Yunling on average."

"What about the rest of the time? All working?"

"Almost, I don't have any other hobbies."

This is really an extremely terrifying thing, Tang Jingcheng shrugged: "From this point of view, you should be a relatively boring person."

"That's not necessarily the case. In fact, work can be regarded as a kind of pleasure in a sense. At least it can prove the value of your existence."

"..." Tang Jingcheng was speechless.

"You use your work to prove your worth?"

"Why not? You get what you pay for, so it's fun and extremely fair to work on that level."

For some reason, Tang Jingcheng always felt that Su Jue was a little sad when he said these words.

He kept pinching the tissue in front of him with one hand: "I officially joined Su Fan about five years ago. My first position was a senior specialist in the sales department, but I am the only one in the entire sales department that can be called a senior specialist."

Tang Jingcheng cooperated with him quite a bit: "Ah, that means you are amazing!"

"Wrong, it's not that I'm good, but because I'm Su Hongzhi's son, my father only gave me a low-level seat, but in the face of my father, I have to add" in front of "specialist" There is no such position in the original organizational structure."

"..."

Su Jue never mentioned the past to anyone, but not mentioning it doesn't mean it didn't happen.

"I studied medicine in college, and I can get a master's degree when I graduate from the five-year undergraduate and master's program. However, after entering Sufan, the things I learned in the medical school are useless. I have to start from scratch. Since then, I only have four hours of sleep a day, and the remaining [-] hours I need to constantly transform and move forward, so that others can accept you, convince you, and let the person at the top see you your turn."

Su Jue lowered his head slightly when he said the last sentence.

Tang Jingcheng seemed to understand something, and frowned: "Does that person in the high place refer to your father?"

"Heh..." Su Jue didn't answer, but suddenly smiled, "Let's not talk about that, it's not suitable to talk about this topic today."

Yes, it's not suitable to talk about this topic, at least Tang Jingcheng doesn't want to talk about Su Hongzhi with him.

"Then let's talk about the uniformed troops I saw in the mining area this afternoon. Radumin told me that they are all local independent troops."

Su Jue wiped his forehead with his fingers again.

Well, he had to admit that this question made him even more reluctant to answer than the previous one.

"Radumin's tongue is not firm, but you'd better not know these things, and don't ask them in the future. It's not good for you."

"..." It was these words again, Tang Jingcheng muttered in displeasure, and at that moment the phone in her trouser pocket vibrated again, reminding her that she had unread text messages.

Reluctantly, she took out her phone and opened it...

"Also, I'm leaving for Myitkyina tomorrow night. I have something very important to discuss. You can go there with me then." Su Jue said again, but Tang Jingcheng's thoughts were all overwhelmed by the phone on the phone. A text message attracted the past.

"Can we meet tomorrow? Guan Lue!"

Yes, Guan Lue, that’s right, it’s the name.

Tang Jingcheng felt that her heart skipped a beat, and then looked at the number of the text message, the domestic mobile phone, but it was not the one she used to contact Guan Lue.

The most important thing is why did he suddenly ask for a meeting?

Could it be because she called him in the room just now.
