Liu Ruolan and her brother walked a lot around Xuanwu Lake in the morning, so after lunch, they took a nap in a room that Liu's mother had packed up. Unknowingly, she overslept. It was Douya who saw the young master and Zhou
The eldest brother had a conflict, so he hurried upstairs to wake her up.
When Liu Ruolan hurriedly packed up and ran downstairs, Zhou Wen and the others had already left.
Liu Ruoxi also knew that he was too impatient just now, but for some reason, when he saw the officer who was soaked to the skin, but had a heroic and vigorous air (he was used to seeing people in high positions, he knew at a glance that this person was Zhou Wen)
, because he has a different temperament from others) He is not angry at all. Maybe he is a little jealous, maybe he is a little dissatisfied, maybe his family praises Zhou Wen too much, which makes him unhappy. Anyway, Liu Ruoxi felt angry when she saw Zhou Wen today.
A moment of irritability.
In fact, although Liu Ruoxi comes from a wealthy family, the Liu family's upbringing is very strict. Liu Ruoxi has been studying in a missionary school since she was a child. She doesn't have many dandy habits and is considered gentle and elegant. But today, for some reason, she just wants to find trouble with Zhou Wen. Zhou Wen usually treats others.
The friendly smile looked so annoying in his eyes. If he hadn't been self-aware, he would have almost punched her today.
He actually didn't understand why he had such a bad feeling for that officer. Now that he saw his sister's bright eyes looking at him with a smile that was not a smile, he couldn't help but blush, but he turned away stubbornly, looking unrepentant.
appearance.
Liu Ruolan knew this younger brother's character. In fact, he had begun to regret it in his heart. He was just trying to save face.
Liu Ruolan said softly: "Ruoxi, I won't tell you what your attitude is towards the officer named Zhou. After all, it is your personal preference, and the family cannot force you. If you don't like him, you can ignore him or not see him, but...
It would be wrong to drive someone away. You must know that this person has saved his life. What's more, he and his family have a deep cooperation in business and official circles. It is not right to offend a partner because of a dispute of temper.
The way our Liu family behaves."
"Moreover, just because Liu Ma tried to persuade her a few words, you went on the line and yelled at her. This is not your usual behavior. What on earth made you feel so upset today?"
Liu Ruoxi knew that although her sister still spoke in a gentle manner, she was dissatisfied with herself in her heart.
Because of the large age difference between him and Liu Ruoshui, he had not had much intimacy with this eldest brother since he was a child, but he had a deep affection for his sister. Although Liu Ruoshui went to study abroad for a few years, the two siblings still maintained frequent correspondence.
Therefore, after Liu Ruolan returned to China, there was no sense of alienation between the siblings, but they were closer than before.
Now Liu Ruoxi didn't want to make her sister angry, so she had no choice but to tell the truth.
"Sister, at first when I saw them bullying a beggar, I felt that they were too much and not like decent people. Then I saw the disapproval of the person surnamed Zhou, and I felt angry. And then... Hey, let's put it this way
Well, the guy surnamed Zhou and I may have conflicting fates, so I don’t like him."
"Pfft!" Liu Ruolan chuckled lightly, poked Liu Ruoxi's forehead with her finger and said, "You are obviously jealous that my eldest brother and third uncle praised me so much. You just feel dissatisfied. Why are you looking for any excuse?"
"Really, sister, I'm not looking for excuses. To be honest, I'm a little bit jealous and dissatisfied, but mostly I still dislike him. It's a pity that I haven't learned martial arts, otherwise I would want to beat him up."
Liu Ruolan giggled when she heard the sound, stretched out her delicate palm and pinched Liu Ruoxi's arm and said, "You have such a small body, and you still beat people up? Giggling..."
"Sister, don't underestimate me. If you really want to beat me, you won't lose. I don't think he's that strong."
"No, you're really making me laugh to death. Didn't you hear what my elder brother said, I am a very powerful martial artist. I heard that I have killed many people. It doesn't matter whether I am strong or not. I think you can just forget it. But I thought
You, who are determined to be a priest, are going to fight with soldiers, geez... Oh! Your sister will laugh to death just thinking about it."
Liu Ruoxi blushed and said angrily: "Sister, just wait, I will propose a duel with him next time I see him, and then you can see how your brother performs."
"Okay, okay, there has been a lot of quarrels and quarrels today, but it's your fault about Mother Liu. Mother Liu has been serving you since you were a child, and her feelings are similar to those of our family members. Please wait a moment.
Go and apologize to Mother Liu."
"Okay, I admit this, but if my father starts blaming me after I go back, you have to speak for me."
"Haha, this matter...if my father spares you, I don't think my third uncle will spare you. Just wait for the family to take care of you."
"Hey! Are you still my biological sister?"
The two siblings laughed and walked towards the manor, but Liu Ruolan knew in her heart that it would not be easy for her younger brother to pass this test. It seemed that she wanted to go to the house first to apologize and listen to what her eldest brother and family members said about this person.
, I am afraid that I will not care about a young man like my brother.
…
That night, the dark sky started to rain again. A man holding an umbrella walked down an alley in Beicheng District, Nanjing. Due to the rain, there were no pedestrians in the alley. The man’s umbrella was held low.
Completely covering his face.
Not long after, the man came to the door of a lamb soup noodle restaurant that had closed. He stretched out his hand and knocked on the door gently, three times slowly and two times quickly. The man's knocking sound was very rhythmic, and the restaurant door opened from the inside.
The man put away his umbrella and walked in.
The noodle shop was opened by a thin old man with a harmless and honest look, but his eyes were shining brightly. He nodded slightly to the man who entered, turned around and closed the door.
The man didn't pause when he entered. He walked through the lobby and came to a room in the backyard. He opened the door and walked in.
Under the dim light, there were six men in the room eating around a small table. On the table was a large earthen basin filled with a pot of mutton and several dishes of side dishes. When they saw the man holding an umbrella coming in, the six men stood up quickly.
Standing up, they all bowed to the man who entered the door and said, "Nakata-kun!"
It turned out that this man was Takeo Nakata, who was sent to Nanjing by Shanghai Tekko to look for the mercenary group. He took a team of agents for several days to sneak into Nanjing. Later, he teamed up with a lurker named Viper from Tekko in Nanjing.
The team got in touch and dispersed people for the past few days to let the new agents familiarize themselves with the terrain of Nanjing City.
Their hiding place in Nanjing is a stronghold of the Viper Group, which is this mutton noodle restaurant, and the leader of the Viper Group is the little old man who opened the door just now, and his code name is Viper.
