The heart that has been poured cold water on never wants to be a good person again.
This is it for this life.
Shen Xu knelt down behind the tea table with a calm face, looking at the white smoke curling up from the tea cup, feeling worried.
Zhao Ning said he would invite him to drink tea, but he really invited him to drink tea. There was nothing but him and the tea.
After Manager Chu invited him over, he left.
The hostess of Ning'an House did not come with her, nor did the girl who was thinking about something else.
He just knelt down and sat in the brightly lit reception hall.
Forget it, just sit and sit.
So be it.

The light shines on Chen Shu inside the room, and also shines outside through the window lattice.
Hongwen stood in the corner of the courtyard, looking up at the lights here, and then looking at the courtyard where the crowds had dispersed. She mustered up the courage to go there several times, but she couldn't take a step forward.
The situation developed in a direction that she had not expected. It was unexpected, but it seemed to be reasonable.
Lin Liu Niang did not get along with Yi Qiu. Previously, because Yi Qiu said that her chicken soup was getting worse and worse, she said a lot of things about Yi Qiu behind her back.
So it doesn't seem surprising that Lin Liuniang was identified as the murderer.
The gongs and drums that Liang Qihe played in response to them before, as well as the last few blows from Manager Chu, could definitely be heard in the whole place. I wonder what Zai Chun's thoughts are now.
Hongwen didn't really want to go find her. She was tortured so badly during the day that she couldn't bear it even through the thick winter clothes. If she wanted to go find her now...
But if we don’t look for them, they are all on the same boat. What should we do?
There was sudden movement in the main hall in front.
Hongwen hurriedly turned her head and looked around. With her current state of mind, any movement would easily make her panic.
It was Mrs. Qu and people from the government who came. The man at the head was Mrs. Qu's deputy guard. Half of his face was covered in blood. He didn't say anything to anyone who asked. It wasn't until he saw Manager Chu coming in person that he led the government. Everyone stepped forward: "Manager Chu!"
"What's going on!" Manager Chu was shocked.
"Where's my wife?" the deputy team member lowered his voice. "My wife asked us to escort a woman to the government, but we were intercepted by a group of men in black on the way. Their skills were far superior to ours. We suffered serious casualties, and the woman was snatched away by them. .”
"This is happening!" Manager Chu quickly looked at his wound, which showed that the battle was indeed fierce. "I will immediately ask someone to give you medicine to stop the bleeding. I will go and talk to Madam and the others!"
Manager Chu ran upstairs in a hurry.
Hongwen quietly nestled at the barrier between the front hall and the backyard. When she saw the big men dripping with blood, she reached out to cover her lips. She didn't know what happened, but it was definitely not a trivial matter.
Just now she was hesitant to go find Zai Chun, but now she felt that if she didn't take advantage of the situation, she would have no chance.
What happened tonight is really serious, and Zaichun should also be curious about those gongs and drums.
You have to think about what you need to do, and you have to think about what to do next. It’s not okay to have no idea.
Thinking about it, Hongwen turned around and left, finally stepping out of Ning'an Building.
The small courtyard in the deep alley is very quiet. The bright lights of Ning'an Building shine on it, and the frost and snow on the stone steps in front of the door are clear in the light and shadow.
Hongwen stepped forward and knocked lightly. Almost as soon as she knocked for the first time, there was movement in this quiet courtyard.
All Zaichun's attention was focused on the door, and he rushed over as soon as he heard someone knocking on the door.
The same goes for Bian Yuanfeng. He didn't eat, drink or sleep all day long. When he heard the knock on the door, he came out as soon as possible.
Seeing Hongwen coming in, Bian Yuanfeng held the dagger in his hand tighter.
Not Cao Yu! Not Cao Yu!
Bian Yuanfeng immediately looked at Zaichun. He had been tense for a day and was going crazy.
No, he has gone crazy.
Bian Yuanfeng kicked the bamboo stool next to the door and strode towards Hongwen.
Zaichun hurried back to the house and closed the door. Hongwen screamed and turned around to run away. Bian Yuanfeng grabbed her and covered her mouth: "You fucking scream again!"
Zaichun was blocking the door, while Bian Yuanfeng dragged Hongwen over and kicked the already crooked door open.
Zai Chun clutched the pain in his back and ran towards the wooden bed in fear, huddled in the innermost part.
Bian Yuanfeng kicked Hongwen towards her. Hongwen staggered towards Zai Chun, but was pushed outside by Zai Chun: "Don't come here!!"
Gu Yi sat up on the kang, completely sleepless, and stared at them in shock.
Then he saw his wife screaming as Bian Yuanfeng pulled her hair and dragged her off the wooden bed.
"You killed Cao Yu!!" Bian Yuanfeng roared, "You bitch! You can't control your own man, you treat others like dogs!"
He threw it hard, and Zai Chun's head hit the ground hard, causing his eyes to go black.
"I didn't! Nothing happened to him, nothing happened to him!" Zai Chun said hurriedly.
"He's not back yet!!!" Bian Yuanfeng yelled.
"I don't know. Nothing happened to him. I don't know why he didn't come back!" Zai Chun cried loudly.
"It's you, you bitch!" Bian Yuanfeng grabbed her hair and knocked her to the ground again.
Zai Chun couldn't stop her, crying and shouting: "Hongwen just came, ask Hongwen why she came, don't hit me, don't hit me!"
Bian Yuanfeng then looked towards Hongwen.
Hongwen was so frightened that she seemed unable to speak when she saw this vicious and bright gaze. The irritating panic made her open her mouth in vain, and she suddenly became speechless.
"Cao Yu was arrested? Was he arrested?" Bian Yuanfeng asked.
"No, no!" Hongwen shouted hoarsely, "He was not arrested!"
"Liar!" Bian Yuanfeng stabbed Zai Chun in the stomach.
Zai Chun screamed and covered his wound, shaking in pain: "Don't kill me, it won't do any good if you kill me, don't kill me!!"
Bian Yuanfeng's forehead had swollen veins, his eyes were as wide as bells, and his normally fair complexion was now flushed in the dim light.
He tried his best to restrain himself, but after enduring it night after night, he could no longer bear it.
"Ah!!!" Bian Yuanfeng roared angrily, piercing Zaichun's wooden bed with his dagger wildly, using all his force to make holes in the wooden bed.
Zaichun covered her wound and shrank to the other side. Suddenly she saw the table that had been knocked down in the chaos, and she hurriedly picked up the candlestick on the ground.
Hongwen retreated to the innermost part of the wooden bed, shivering and not daring to move.
Gu Yi didn't dare to speak, and the sweat on his forehead was as big as beans.
Of course, the neighbors could hear a lot of the noise that happened at Gu Yi's house in the past few days, but no one wanted to pay attention.
Gu Yi often flirted with Zai Chun, and Zai Chun was not someone to be trifled with. The couple had never had a peaceful life in recent years.
The neighbors came to try and persuade them to make peace, but it was of no use. Not only was it useless, Zai Chun sometimes got angry and even scolded them for meddling in their own business.
Think about it, after all, the couple slept together under the same quilt, so in the end the neighbors just ignored it.
But the noise today was really terrifying. It was kicking the door, screaming, and begging for mercy. No one felt at ease hearing it.
Several neighbors couldn't sit still anymore, got up and put on their clothes, intending to come over and have a look.
As soon as I opened the courtyard door, I saw that there were people outside.
They had no torches, only the light from the sea of lanterns in the distance. Dozens of tall men just stood in the wind and snow, upright and tall, like unearthed human figurines.
Zhao Ning stood outside the courtyard gate of Gu Yi's house. She was wearing a double-layered dark green robe with clouds and a long dark green gauze covering her face. There was a light green embroidered ribbon hanging from behind her slightly pulled up bun.
Flying in the night wind, it is not refreshing at all, but makes it even more cold and sharp.
"Zhao, Mrs. Zhao." said the neighbor who opened the door.
Zhao Ning didn't seem to hear.
She stood with her hands up in front of Gu Yi's gate, quietly listening to the screams inside, begging for mercy and resisting.
I don’t know what happened, but all the tables, chairs and benches seemed to have been smashed. I heard the sound of stumbling and someone ran out screaming.
The courtyard door was opened, and the tall guards on both sides of Zhao Ning immediately stepped forward to block Zhao Ning.
Hongwen's eyes widened and she looked outside in panic. Then, she fell to her knees with a plop: "Big, big lady!"
Zai Chun was covered in blood and ran out limping. When she met Zhao Ning's gaze, her eyes widened.
