the knife of love

Chapter 221 You Should Know His Means

Ye Tan's alcohol was over, the temperature on his body dissipated, and even his mind gradually became clear.

She curled up and turned over on the bed, and saw a shirtless man sitting by the window. The man's eyes were not big, but the light gathered in the darkness, and looked a little bleak from a distance.

"What's the matter? Looking at me like a ghost?" Ye Tan raised his legs lazily, his arms were exposed from under the quilt, naked and without clothes.

Lao Mai got up and walked to the bed, blocking the light in front of her.

"Are you hiding something from me?"

"No." Ye Tan snorted, turned his face away, and retracted his arms into the quilt again.

"..." Lao Mai was silent.

"It's really cold, isn't the air conditioner turned on?" It was obvious that she was changing the subject.

Lao Mai didn't say anything, went to turn on the air conditioner, and turned on the lights by the way. Everything in the room was lit up, and everything could be seen clearly, including the gloomy eyes in Lao Mai's eyes, Ye Tan's slightly red cheeks, and the full bed. Quilts huddled and clothes thrown around.

"look at me!"

"..."

"If you really have nothing to hide from me, then look at me!" Lao Mai spoke again, Ye Tan felt guilty, this man is a psychiatrist, if he goes to see a person with professional skills, no matter how much he pretends, he will be spotted flaw.

"What do you mean?" Ye Tan simply sat up from the bed, and the quilt slid down to his waist, revealing most of his naked body.

"Mai Boming, you unconscionable thing, just finished sleeping and yelling at me, Zhang Neng is patient, isn't he?"

After being yelled at by Ye Tan, Lao Mai couldn't recover.

But her concealment was too obvious.

This is the reverse psychology of being nervous and fearful after making a mistake.

"Yezi, one yard belongs to one yard, I'm asking you something now, answer me!"

"Answer you? I have nothing to say, get out!" Ye Qin took off the quilt and got off the bed, sucked on the slippers, picked up the clothes and wanted to put them on.

Lao Mai squeezed her arm: "You drank too much just now..."

"..." Ye Tan shook his body.

Made a mistake after drinking, did she say something she shouldn't have said to Lao Mai?
"Nervous, I don't know what you're talking about!"

"Okay, let me ask you another way. In the hospital this morning, why did you drag Shen Chunguang to ask Chai Lu what happened before she died?"

"That's it?" Ye Tan snorted. "Chai Lu must know what Fan Qingyan did. She may have told Shen Chunguang. Of course I have to ask."

"You think so? Then should I say that you have been in Jiurongtai for so many years in vain?"

"..."

There is an unwritten rule in Taoism, men are invincible, and there can be many women around, but they don't touch their hearts, and it is impossible to let women know that their dirty hands are not clean.

Women are for sleeping, just for fun, and those like Chai Lu who can help Fan Qingyan with some superficial things have already reached their peak, and it is impossible for him to let her know if he goes deeper.

If he knew it, he would become a handle, so why would he bother to make trouble for himself.

Chai Lu didn't even know that Ye Tan asked Fan Qingyan's people to kill Lou Qingxiao, let alone his "business".

"You should know in your heart that it is impossible for Chai Lu to know these things. It's just that you didn't shoot well. If she had died in the Crystal Palace at that time, it would have been fine, but now she lived a few more days, allowing her to have a chance to meet Lao Jiu. , so you are stupid, why did you save her in the first place."

Lao Mai's meaning was a little bit clearer, and Ye Tan's expression became a little bit colder.

"However, Chai Lu is quite courageous. Before Lao Jiu rushed to the hospital in the morning, you locked yourself in the ward and talked with Chai Lu for half an hour. Are you negotiating terms?"

"No." Ye Tan denied, still naked.

At this moment, she is a woman, with all the characteristics of a woman on her body. He has just entered this woman's body. At this moment, her body is still hot and her waist is soft, but the light in her eyes is hard.

Suddenly, Lao Mai didn't want to say any more.

He was half-sane, and he was even a little unreasonable when he talked about Guan Lue and Tang Jingcheng at that time, but he was only stunned by Ye Tan, and he probably spent all the stupidity and paranoia that people would commit on Ye Tan.

Lao Mai pulled the woman in front of him into his arms, wrapping his arms around her shoulders.

"Yezi, if you don't want to say it, I won't ask, but you have been with Lao Jiu for so many years, you know where his bottom line is, and you should also know his methods. Since I can see some things, he is not Fool."

Ye Tan rested his head on Lao Mai's shoulder, his body trembling slightly.

"Are you shaking?"

"cold……"

Shen Chunguang woke up at seven o'clock the next day, there was no movement in the room, thinking he had woken up early enough, but when he went out, he saw that Su Jue's room was empty, the futon was neatly folded on the tatami, and the back window was open , the river behind is sparkling.

Shen Chunguang didn't live in this yard for long, and he rarely came to this house, so today was the first time he found that the river was facing his back window.

Shen Chunguang closed the window and went out. Su Jue was already sitting in the yard. There was a set of stone tables and chairs under the ginkgo tree. The tables and chairs were originally built in the yard. Shaggy moss.

Su Jue was sitting in front of that stone table, and changed into a white pullover on top, and dark blue slacks on the bottom. Sitting quietly under the tree, his aura restrained a lot, showing a bit of elegance come out.

Shen Chunguang suddenly thought of another man, he was wearing a white pullover sweater yesterday, the same style and color, why can't he get rid of the ruffian when he wears that man.

"Work early in the morning?" Shen Chunguang asked standing on the threshold.

Only then did Su Jue look up: "Wake up?"

"Um, sorry, overslept."

"Fortunately, it's only seven o'clock."

It was indeed not too late, Shen Chunguang stroked his sleepy curly hair with his fingers: "Then go have breakfast now?"

"it is good."

"Then wait for me, I'll go back to the house and wash my face." Shen Chunguang went into the house, Su Jue heard her limping and dragging on the ground, but soon saw her turn back, holding the door frame: "Oh yes, have you washed yet?"

"washed."

"But I don't have new towels and toothbrushes here, did you bring them in your suitcase?"

"No, I went out and bought a set."

"Have you gone out already?" Shen Chunguang was surprised, "Did I sleep too deeply or did you wake up too early? When did you go out to buy?"

"Just over an hour ago."

"More than an hour ago?" That was after five o'clock, "A supermarket opened so early?"

"Yes, it's just behind your yard."

"Isn't there just a river behind my yard?"

"I mean, on the other side of the river, there is a small shop that sells groceries, soy milk and breakfast."

"..." Shen Chunguang stroked her hair again. She lived here for a while, but she never knew what was on the other side of the river.

"Oh, then I'll go brush my teeth and wash my face."

Shen Chunguang came out after packing up and changed his clothes. Su Jue had already closed the computer.

"Are you leaving today?"

"Don't go, tomorrow's ticket."

"Oh, let's have breakfast first, and then I'll take you around Tengchong Town."

Shen Chunguang went back to the house and took a thin scarf.

Of course Su Jue still remembered what she said last night that she would invite him to breakfast.

The two locked the courtyard door and went out.

Su Jue: "Is there anything special at the entrance of this village?"

Shen Chunguang: "You'll know when you go, I won't tell you." She said while wrapping the scarf around her face. The temperature in the late autumn morning was very low and there was still dew. After wearing the scarf, Shen Chunguang showed her eyes.

The two walked along the path at the gate of the courtyard.

When I came here last night, Su Jue remembered that her yard was in the innermost part, a single family, and it became lively after walking for a while.

Because Ginkgo Village is now considered a tourist attraction, some old houses have been converted into storefronts, but not many open so early, and all the people walking on the road are villagers.

"Have you heard? A body was found on the other side of the river last night?"

"I know, the police car drove into the village in the middle of the night, how could such a big event not be known."

"I don't know what it was for. It is said that it was murder. I was stabbed several times."

"Rooting money? There is no one on the other side of the river, just some old houses..."

Shen Chunguang heard the villagers chatting at the door, speaking the local dialect. Su Jue couldn't understand it, so naturally he didn't care, but Shen Chunguang could understand a little bit, and suddenly felt a chill down his spine.

"What's wrong?" Su Jue noticed something strange in her eyes.

Shen Chunguang peeled off his fingers: "It's nothing, let's go."

When Lao Mai returned to the Crystal Palace, Guan Lue was sitting in the atrium with a cup of Pu'er in front of him. The tea was already cold. There were many cigarette butts in the ashtray, and he was holding a flattened empty cigarette box in his hand.

Looks like he's been sitting here for a long time.

"Is everything over there?" Guan Lue asked while tearing up the cigarette case.

Lao Mai nodded: "It's all over." He said concisely.

Guan Lue didn't ask any more questions, lowered his head, and folded the torn cigarette case into long strips.

Seeing that he seemed to be fine, Lao Mai was about to leave, but just a few steps away, he heard Guan Yue's calm voice.

"Where's Ye Qin?"

"She's still in Baoshan."

"Didn't come back with you?"

"Stomach trouble, I'll ask her to have a look at Baoshan Hospital, maybe she won't be back until tomorrow."

Guan Lue has already folded the strips, raised his eyelids: "Stomach problem? When did she have a stomach problem?"

"It's just the past two years. I'm not used to eating in Myanmar, and I'm hungry every time I'm full."

"Heh..." Guan smiled slightly, "You sound like you're blaming me?"

"How dare you." Seeing him joking, Lao Mai felt a little relieved, "It would be great if you were kind enough to recruit her back from Myanmar, thank you Dade!"

Lao Mai teased, but Guan Lue was not angry, pinching the paper box with his fingers.

"Since she's not feeling well, why are you coming back? Aren't you in Baoshan?"

"Can't you send Chai Lu's ashes back?"

"Blame me again!" Guan Lue was still smiling, and the note in his hand had already formed an outline, "Have you chosen the cemetery?"

"I have chosen it. According to your instructions, I will choose it on the side of Yunfeng Mountain."

"Well, just choose one?"

"..." Lao Mai was a little confused, "Of course it's just one piece. Does she have to sleep in two tombs?"

Guan Lue didn't say a word, his smile faded away, and he spoke again after a while: "Then go and choose another piece."

"what?"

"Xiao Wu is dead."

Lao Mai was shocked: "When did it happen?"

"About three hours ago."

Three hours ago, at four o'clock in the morning, Yaba was the first to get the news that Xiao Wu's body had been thrown in the grass beside the river beach in Gingko Village.
