Chapter 287(1/2)

After a while, Qi Lan came out with a poker.

As soon as she went out, she shivered from the cold.

He trotted to the car, looked at me and said:

"Oh, it's too cold. I'm freezing to death. How's it going? Do you have any clues?"

Open the door and get in the car, turn on the heater to maximum.

But because the car was parked outside for too long, it was still very cold inside.

I opened the poker with trembling hands. At the same time, I shook my head and said:

"Not yet, I need to study it some more..."

Turn on the reading light. Under the dim light, I began to study the playing cards carefully.

What I can confirm is that Hu Kui must know the cards.

Otherwise, he would not be able to win steadily regardless of whether it was the Five Little Dragons or the Golden Flower.

Even at the poker table, his probability of winning is equally high.

While watching, Qi Lan suddenly came over and said softly:

"Xiao Liuye, my hands are cold and I want to warm them..."

"good!"

My focus is entirely on poker.

He didn't understand what she meant, so he responded casually.

As soon as the words fell.

Suddenly, my neck felt cold.

A small white hand actually reached into my neck.

I shuddered and looked up.

Qi Lan was looking at me with a wicked smile.

This is the first time I discovered that the elegant and refined Qi Lan actually has such a naughty side.

Seeing that I didn't seem to have any reaction, Qi Lan quickly pulled his hand out.

Looking at me, she asked carefully and softly:

"Don't you like me like this?"

Well?

Like it or don't like it?

I was speechless for a moment and didn't know how to answer.

Seeing that I didn't speak, Qi Lan's expression looked a little complicated.

After hesitating for a moment, she said softly:

"Xiao Liuye, I'm sorry. I know, I have been married before. Maybe I am not worthy..."

The next words have not yet been spoken.

Suddenly, a beam of strong light shone in from outside.

We both couldn't help but tilt our heads and block the light in front of our eyes with our hands.

Then, I saw a medium-sized van parked on the side of the road.

The driver got out of the car, wrapped in a military green coat.

He hunched his neck, paced back and forth, and shouted loudly into the courtyard:

"Where are the people? Come out quickly and unload the goods..."

Why is there still delivery in the middle of the night?

I was a little curious, so I asked:

"What's going on? Why are you delivering the goods so late?"

"He is the driver of the family's fleet, who is responsible for delivering goods to places in the towns below. Such as tobacco, alcoholic beverages, and some consumables. No matter how late it is, as long as the place needs it, there will be a dedicated driver to deliver it...

…”

Qi Lan explained to me, and I nodded slightly.

His eyes returned to the playing cards again, and Qi Lan remained silent and did not continue the topic.

This poker looks like an ordinary customized Little Bee poker.

The size is slightly larger than ordinary playing cards and has no white edges.

The back has an ordinary diamond pattern, and there are no traces of soldering or markings.

But how did Hu Kui know about this kind of special poker?

For a while, I fell into deep thought.

Qi Lan didn't bother me anymore. She lit a cigarette for me and put it to my mouth.

I smoked quietly and looked at a group of people watching the scene outside the car.

He was hurriedly carrying things to the venue.

As he was watching, suddenly a shrill scream of "ouch" came from outside the car.

This sound startled everyone, including me and Qi Lan.

"What's going on?"

Qi Lan asked hurriedly.

After another look, it turned out to be a nail in the yard. I felt cold and hurried back to the house.

I accidentally stepped on a wild cat that came out of nowhere.

The wild cat ran away wildly and disappeared into the night.

And looking at this wild cat, an idiom suddenly flashed in my mind:

"The civet cat exchanges for the prince"

Thinking of this, I was shocked.

He turned around quickly and asked Qi Lan:

"Sister Lan, has this driver always been in charge of this place?"

Qi Lan thought for a moment, then nodded and said:

"Maybe, I really don't know much about it. He seems to be an ordinary driver, responsible for two or three neighboring towns..."

"Then where does this person come from?"

Qi Lan immediately smiled, shook his head, and said softly:

"I don't know about that. Don't say I don't know, I don't even know him..."

I also realized that I asked a stupid question.

How is it possible for a dignified young lady to know such a driver?

After thinking about it, I zipped up my clothes.

Open the door, get out of the car, and walk to the van.

Looking at the driver who was unloading the goods in the carriage, I asked with a smile:

"Master, how much more do you need?"

The driver replied casually while passing the box down:

"Just a few boxes of water and that's all..."

"Come, take a break and smoke a cigarette!"

I chatted with him, handed him a cigarette, and asked:

"After unloading the car, are you going back to the city?"

The driver lit his cigarette and took a long puff.

"My family lives in Landong Town, so there's no need to go back to the city..."

"Then you are familiar with Mr. Hu Kuikui, right?"

As soon as I said this, the driver was obviously startled.

After hesitating for a moment, he said:

"Who in Landong Town doesn't know Mr. Kui? Brother, stop talking. I'm going to be busy..."
To be continued...
