When Xiang Yu opened his eyes, he saw a window in front of him. There was a dim light in the window. In the shadow of the light, a woman was bending down to pack something. The woman lowered her head and could not see her face clearly. She was wearing a white dress.
The se sleeveless crew-neck shirt has a loose collar. From Xiang Yu's perspective, you can just see the two white lumps shaking on the chest.
"Damn, what a slutty woman, how dare you show off in front of this king, I..." Xiang Yu wanted to curse, but when he opened his mouth, he found that no sound came out. It felt like
It felt like something was stuck in my throat. Not only was I unable to speak, I was even struggling to breathe.
At this time, Cheng Ming had already folded her clothes, turned around, picked up a cigarette and lit it, walked to the window, and gently blew out a cloud of smoke. The smoke slowly dissipated, and a vague figure appeared in front of her.
The shadow of an old crooked tree. In fact, this tree was only five or six meters away from the window. However, Cheng Ming was short-sighted and the night was hazy, so Cheng Ming didn't notice the old crooked neck until he was about to finish smoking a cigarette.
There seemed to be something hanging from the tree around his neck.
"Which one of you hung something from the crooked neck tree?" Cheng Ming stuck her head out the window and shouted to the rooms on both sides.
"It's not me!" A crisp female voice came from the west wing. A few seconds later, a soft and weak female voice came from the east wing: "It's not me either..."
Cheng Ming retracted her head, grabbed her glasses and put them on, then stuck her head out again.
Xiang Yu had already found the reason why he was speechless. His neck was indeed stuck. To be precise, it was strangled by a rope. Once he found out that this was the case, he suddenly felt out of breath.
, a feeling of death surged over him, and he instinctively wanted to raise his hands to untie the rope, but he couldn't lift his hands.
"I...why did my body become so weak? What kind of rope is strangling my neck? The thunder and lightning golden light lock? The demon-subduing soul-locking chain? Uh, why did that woman start spitting smoke from her mouth? It turned out to be a
Temptress! Damn it! Since you have captured this king, why don’t you have fun? You, what are you looking at? You? You are still blowing smoke... And you are still shouting? Why are you shouting...
...Endless?" Xiang Yu's emotions fell into madness, and his consciousness fell into confusion at the same time. When Xiang Yu's eyes slowly closed, he suddenly heard a shrill sound.
The screams rang in my ears.
"ah--!"
...
There were three young women standing at the door of the hospital emergency room.
Cheng Ming was wearing a light gray sports coat, holding a cigarette in her hand, her brows were furrowed, and her face was pale. Beside her, the faces of Yan Yanqiu and Qin Churou were not much better, especially Qin Churou, who had a pair of
Crystal tears were already rolling down from her smoke-like eyes, and she was sobbing softly on Yan Yanqiu's shoulder.
"Why are you crying? We're not your relatives." Yan Yanqiu rolled her eyes at Qin Churou. Among the three women, Yan Yanqiu has the fairest skin, the tallest figure, and the most beautiful appearance, but her tone of voice is just like a boy.
, with a loud voice and speaking very fast.
"I..." Qin Churou raised her head and glanced at Yan Yanqiu, "I'm just sad. He, he is so pitiful..."
Qin Churou has a sweet and cute appearance, and a small and exquisite figure, typical of Xiaojiabiyu, so she seems to be the youngest among the three. In fact, she is already twenty-four years old, two years younger than Cheng Ming, but one year older than Yan Yanqiu.
"What a pity!" Yan Yanqiu stared at her almond-shaped eyes, "It's not a pity to die for such a delicious and lazy parasite! The most hateful thing is that you didn't find a good place to die, but hanged yourself on a tree with a crooked neck. Why? Demonstrate to us.
Huh? You want to become a ghost and haunt us? Bah!"
"Okay, okay, can you shut up?" Cheng Ming put out the cigarette in his hand, glanced at Yan Yanqiu, and said, "You go back with Chu Rou first. She has to go to work early in the morning. You can help me during the day.
Take a look at the dojo, I may not be able to come back so soon."
Yan Yanqiu nodded and pulled Qin Churou's arm: "Let's go."
Just as the two were about to turn around, they saw the door of the emergency room opened, and a middle-aged male doctor came out and asked, "Who are the family members?"
The three of them were stunned for a moment, and Cheng Ming opened his mouth: "We..."
"The person is alive and will be sent to the intensive care unit later. You go and pay the hospitalization fee first." The male doctor dropped this sentence and left alone. As he was far away, he heard a low murmur drifting towards him.
: "It hurts my balls to seek death when there are so many beauties around me..."
The three women looked at each other, with dumbfounded expressions on their faces.
"Sister Ming, the hospitalization fee..." Yan Yanqiu glanced at Cheng Ming. Before Cheng Ming could speak, Qin Churou said, "I'll help him pay."
"Is there something wrong with you?" Yan Yanqiu pushed Qin Churou, "Who is he to you? Do you help him pay? How much money do you make a month? What will he use to repay you in the future?"
"I..." Qin Churou blinked her big black and bright eyes, tears about to fall again.
"It's okay, I'll pay for it." Cheng Ming said softly.
"Sister Lin, you..."
"It was probably because of me that he hanged himself. I should pay for the medical expenses." Cheng Ming's tone sounded very tired. She was indeed exhausted mentally and physically. But the more times like this, the more patient Cheng Ming is.
Xingxing, which makes her look more mature than women of the same age. However, this maturity is in temperament rather than appearance, because based on appearance alone, she seems to be as old as Yan Yanqiu.
"How could this matter have anything to do with you?" Yan Yanqiu was anxious, "He keeps staring at you to borrow money. You have given him money again and again. If you don't want to give it this time, he will seek death. This has something to do with you.
Does it matter? It doesn’t matter at all!”
"Stop talking." Cheng Ming waved her hand, took out another cigarette and lit it, took a deep breath, and then exhaled a long line of smoke. "You go back, I'll be here alone."
...
On the hospital bed, Xiang Yu stared at the ceiling without moving.
He had always had this expression since he came out of the emergency room. No matter what the outside world said, he had no reaction. Xiang Yu was thinking about things, and he had almost figured it out.
"What a bear, my soul actually ended up in a young doll, and it's not from the same world. From this point of view, I was indeed killed in the battle with Niu Bang...
.. Niu Bang, Niu Bang, you’re the best this time! It’s a pity, it’s a pity for my Yu Ji...”
Thinking of his beloved wife Yu Ji, seeing that the situation was over, she drew her sword and killed herself. Xiang Yu's heart suddenly felt like a knife was cutting her. He blinked his eyelids a few times and two lines of hot tears slowly fell from the corners of his eyes...
Cheng Ming, who was sitting beside the bed, had just woken up from her nap and happened to see this scene. Her heart softened and she gently held Xiang Yu's hand and said softly: "It's okay, Zhang Qiang. From now on...
..You have to be strong from now on, understand? Just like your name..."
Xiang Yu glanced sideways at Cheng Ming.
He now knows who this beautiful woman is. Cheng Ming, twenty-six years old, owner and head coach of Lingyuan Taekwondo Dojo. In addition, she is also the landlord of the hanged ghost Zhang Qiang, but Zhang Qiang has been renting the house since the day he rented the house.
He has never paid a penny of rent. Not only that, he always borrows money from Cheng Ming. Cheng Ming actually borrows money again and again. For no other reason than Zhang Qiang is a person with quite a history.
No matter in the past or now, in Qianhai City, when it comes to the Zhang family in the north of the city, everyone knows it. The Zhang family has been wealthy for generations and has owned countless properties. Zhang Qiang’s grandfather once had a foreign wife.
The name is Zhang Bancheng, which means that half of Qianhai City belongs to their Zhang family.
So Zhang Qiang was a young man who was born with a golden key. He lived happily for twenty-two years, until something happened to his father, and Zhang Qiang's world suddenly changed drastically.
Zhang Qiang's father was arrested three years ago on suspicion of economic crimes and was soon sentenced to life imprisonment. He died of illness in prison in the same year. Zhang Qiang's mother sold almost all the family property in an attempt to clear her husband's name, but was deceived.
Everything was clear. So the front foot followed the back foot. My father had just died, and my mother also committed suicide...
Overnight, Zhang Qiang changed from a rich young man that everyone envied to a down-and-out poor man that everyone despised. However, two years ago, Zhang Qiang could only be called down and out, but not necessarily poor.
Because Zhang Qiang still owns a property.
This property is where he currently rents - Tingxiang Garden. Two years ago, the owner of Tingxiang Garden was Zhang Qiang.
Tingxiang Garden is an old house, located at the junction of the city and the suburbs. It was one of the numerous properties of the Zhang family. It was passed down from generation to generation until Zhang Qiang got it. However, Zhang Qiang had never been to Tingxiang until he was twenty-two years old.
They didn't even know that their family had such an old house outside the city.
But Zhang's mother knew about it, and she once thought about selling it, but she gave up because she couldn't find a buyer at that time. As a result, it became Zhang Qiang's only place to stay.
If Zhang Qiang had a clearer mind at this time, he would actually be able to live a comfortable life just by relying on this house, because although it is a suburban area, it is surrounded by mature living communities and the transportation is convenient. It only takes half an hour to go to the city.
The journey. Therefore, relying on this house, Zhang Qiang not only survived hunger, he was even much stronger than ordinary people.
But Zhang Qiang wanted to make a comeback.
He sold half of Tingxiang Garden, that is, the house facing the best south, to someone else to build a shop at a very low price, and then returned to the city to prepare for a big start. In less than half a year, not only did he accomplish nothing, but he also lost all his money.
Spend it all.
So he tried to use the other half of Ting Xiangyuan's brain, but this half was not facing well and could not see the sun during the day, so no one wanted to buy it and build a shop until Cheng Ming appeared.
Cheng Ming is not a local. She has been traveling around the country before coming to Qianhai. When she got here, she suddenly didn’t want to leave. So she wanted to find a place to open a Taekwondo gym because her ancestors have been practicing martial arts for generations and she herself has a Taekwondo black belt certificate.
So it is normal to rely on this to support yourself.
However, the rent in Qianhai City was high, so Cheng Ming found Minghu District, which is located at the junction of the city and the suburbs. It is densely populated, but the rent is more than twice as low as in the city. After driving around, Cheng Ming was pleasantly surprised to find that,
The rental price of an old house was much lower than she expected.
