Seeing Lu Ning coming, Hu Qi breathed a sigh of relief: "Miss Lu, come in!" This shout was filled with joy and expectation.
Lu Ning pushed the door open and was startled when he saw Ma Huilan here.
Ma Huilan walked over with a smile and explained: "Young gang leader, Brother Hu's injury is not serious. Just pay more attention to rest these days. Since you came to see him, I will go and check on your Uncle Ye. Maybe he drinks again."
Too much."
After saying that, she turned around and left gracefully, closing the door behind her.
Seeing Ma Huilan leave, Hu Qicai was completely relieved.
"Master Hu, how are you feeling? You really shouldn't have been allowed to attend just now." Lu Ning came over and sat beside the bed, with a look of concern on his face.
"Thank you very much, Miss, for remembering me." Hu Qi leaned slightly and said feebly: "How could Hu be so virtuous and capable that the girl risked his life to save him and took such good care of him? Hu must take good care of himself as soon as possible to repay the girl's kindness."
"Why don't you repay a favor?" Lu Ning smiled slightly and said warmly: "You can rest here and recover. If you need anything, just ask. Don't worry about causing trouble to us."
Hearing that Lu Ning was thinking about herself so much, Hu Qi was even more grateful.
He leaned forward again and said in a panic: "This...how can this be so embarrassing? After all, we met by chance, and Hu doesn't dare to trouble the girl too much..."
"Don't be polite to me." Lu Ning interrupted him with a smile, and added: "We are destined to meet each other. Besides, we have experienced life and death together. If Mr. Hu doesn't dislike me, we will be friends in the future."
"Hu is lucky to be friends with this girl!" Hu Qi responded hurriedly, looking at Lu Ning with sparkling eyes.
"That's good." Lu Ning stood up and prepared to leave, but did not forget to tell him: "By the way, I have already arranged the manpower. When Mr. Hu recovers from his injuries, I will send you to Shengjing. There must be someone escorting you along the way.
Those bad guys will never dare to attack again."
"Thank you, girl." Hu Qi hesitated for a moment, then asked, "What are your plans next, girl?"
Lu Ning thought for a while and then said: "I haven't thought about it yet. Maybe I will stay in Lingzhou for a while and then go to other semicolonies."
"That's fine." Hu Qi smiled faintly, with a hint of loneliness in his eyes.
Lu Ning turned around and just walked out of the door when the noise attracted his attention.
It turned out that Ye Guming was happy for a moment and was drunk by Toto, and was being carried into the room by several brothers. Another group of brothers also carried the unconscious Toto to the guest room to rest.
The two were carried away one after the other, still talking drunkenly.
Lu Ning smiled bitterly and shook his head, but he suddenly discovered that Ma Huilan, who was following Ye Guming, had eyes full of disgust and impatience.
She was startled and suspected that she had seen it wrong.
When she looked over again, Ma Huilan and Ye Guming had entered the room one after another.
She stood there in shock for a while, then shook her head and turned back to the house.
Everyone put Ye Guming on the bed and exited the room.
Ma Huilan closed the door with her backhand, leaned against the door and took a deep breath. She suddenly smiled, her face was ashen, and her eyes were stern.
She glanced at the drunken man on the bed with disgust, walked to the cabinet, opened the door, and touched deep inside for a while before pulling out a coral bracelet.
Holding the coral bracelet, she walked to the bronze mirror and sat down. She put down the bracelet, picked up a comb and straightened her temples in the mirror, and picked up powder to touch up the makeup on her face.
Looking at the beautiful figure in the mirror, she frowned slightly and sighed softly. The expression in her eyes was complicated, including nostalgia, attachment, unwillingness and hatred.
Then, she put the coral bracelet on her chest and took a deep breath. The unbearable past sixteen years ago had long been buried in her heart, but today, when Ye Guming brought it up and talked about it in public, it made her think like a flood.
:
Thinking back to sixteen years ago, she was just an eighteen or nineteen-year-old girl who fled here because she was being hunted.
Just when she was at the end of her rope and despairing of all hope, she was rescued by Gui Lichi and hid her in a gang, so she was able to survive by chance.
Since ancient times, beauties love heroes!
When she saw Gui Lichi for the first time, she understood the meaning of this sentence deeply.
Especially, when she learned that her savior was once a great hero who fought on the battlefield and conquered mountains and rivers, Ma Huilan was even more enamored and infatuated.
After getting along day and night, Ma Huilan was fascinated by Gui Lichi's heroic character and his love and righteousness, so she made up her mind to marry him.
At that moment, she only had Gui Lichi in her eyes, so how could she know that Ye Guming, who was a brother-in-law with Gui Lichi, was already attracted to her.
A hero cannot escape the trap of beauty! At this time, Gui Lichi, the leader of the gang, also had a crush on the gentle and beautiful Ma Huilan.
I have to say that Ma Huilan is a beautiful beauty, no matter she was a girl back then or a young woman now. Her every move, smile, and every move exudes charm and enchantment.
In addition, she is gentle and virtuous, and is very good at taking care of others. Therefore, at that time, she became the dream lover of the caravan brothers. But everyone can also see that the dream lover of this dream lover is their gang leader.
Therefore, no matter how much others think about it, they can only think about it silently. Only the dull Ye Guming didn't notice any trace at all and was still infatuated with Ma Huilan.
Ma Huilan carefully served Gui Lichi, and after several months of getting along with her, she finally got her wish and became the woman of a great hero.
This vermilion coral bracelet was a token of love given to her by Gui Lichi when the two of them fell in love: Gui Lichi once said that Ma Huilan was as gorgeous and exquisite as this coral, which made people enchanted at first sight.
.
At that time, Ma Huilan naively thought that she had finally found the one she could trust for the rest of her life. She looked forward to the marriage between the two of them every day. She was willing to have children for Gui Lichi and serve him wholeheartedly for the rest of her life.
But God made a joke on her!
Just when she was looking forward to a bright future all day long, Gui Lichi suddenly said to her: Ye Guming wanted to marry her and asked her if she was willing?
When she heard this, Ma Huilan felt anxious and angry. She didn't know whether Gui Lichi really didn't understand Feng Yue or just to test herself.
She was angry for a moment and nodded in agreement to the marriage.
I originally wanted to annoy Gui Lichi, but I never thought that instead of being angry, Gui Lichi started to arrange the marriage of Ye Guming and Ma Huilan with great fanfare.
Seeing that Gui Lichi was showing his true intentions, Ma Huilan immediately panicked.
She immediately went to Gui Lichi to express her feelings, but she didn't expect that Gui Lichi immediately rejected her. In his heart, brotherhood was far above the personal relationship between children.
Even if he was once interested in Ma Huilan, as long as his brother opened his mouth, he would give her up without hesitation!
The heartbroken Ma Huilan did not resist anymore and was pushed into Ye Guming's bridal chamber like a zombie. In order to express his blessings, Gui Lichi gave the Lingzhou semicolon to the couple as a congratulatory gift.
From then on, in Ma Huilan's eyes, Gui Lichi was a heartless and unjust emotional liar!
She was heartbroken and disheartened. All the admiration and deep love in the past turned into bone-gnawing hatred in the blink of an eye...
Ye Guming's loud snoring interrupted Ma Huilan's memories. She gently wiped the wet corners of her eyes and slammed the coral bracelet to the ground.
Bright red beads scattered in all directions, rolling everywhere, like drops of blood splashing everywhere...
Ma Huilan slowly turned her head and stared at the man on the bed expressionlessly. After a long while, she turned around and left angrily.
----------------------------------------
The autumn wind blows, white clouds fly, the grass and trees wither and turn yellow, and the wild geese return south.
The pale sunshine shines slantingly on the windows with carved patterns. The autumn wind blows outside the window, and the incense fills the boudoir.
The snow-white gauze curtain fluttered gently, and Lu Ning turned over on the bed. The early morning sunlight shone on her flawless face, and her long eyelashes trembled gently.
Last night, the man who haunted her dreams broke into her dream again without any warning. The two people in the dream were intimate and laughing. How beautiful they were in the dream, how beautiful she felt after waking up from the dream.
Lost.
When she was half asleep, she
Already smelling the refreshing fragrance of the orchids and chrysanthemums in the garden. She slowly opened her eyes, curled up her body, buried her face in the quilt, and was in a daze, her heart filled with melancholy.
Suddenly there was a loud and powerful shout outside the window. Lu Ning stuck his head out, opened the gauze curtain and got out of bed, walked directly to the window, opened the window a crack and looked out.
It turned out that it was Ye Guming who was leading his brothers to practice martial arts in the courtyard.
The morning glow bathed this group of dark-skinned men. They were naked from the waist up and punched and kicked in accordance with Ye Guming's slogans. After a while, they were dripping with sweat.
"Little deer, get up quickly!" Toto's bold voice came. Immediately, there was a huge knock on the door.
Lu Ning hurriedly ran to open the door and saw Totuo running in with a chicken leg in his hand and laughing.
He handed a chicken drumstick to Lu Ning: "I'll give you one!"
Lu Ning smiled and declined: "You can eat, I just got up and I'm not hungry yet!"
Toto sat down and ate the chicken drumsticks in a few times. He wiped his greasy mouth with his sleeve and said, "Xiaolu, old man Murong said you left without saying goodbye. What happened?"
Lu Ning was slightly startled, biting his lip and hesitated for a long time, then said: "It's nothing. There's nothing going on in Shengjing. I originally planned to go to other semicolons to have a look, but I thought the things here in Lingzhou were more important, so I came first.
Here it is."
"So that's it!" Toto had no doubt at all.
In fact, Lu Ning began to admire herself. Since becoming the young gang leader, her ability to lie has become increasingly better, whether voluntarily or not.
Toto asked again: "How long are you going to stay here? Are you still going back to Shengjing?"
"I haven't thought about it yet. Let's stay in Lingzhou for a while and then talk about it." This sentence is the truth. She doesn't have the courage to go back and face King Yi now.
Toto suddenly sighed: "I used to stay with Mr. Murong every day, and although we often quarreled, I got used to it. Now I can't see him every day, and I'm really not used to it."
Lu Ning patted his shoulder and said with a smile: "How about this? Mr. Hu wants to ask us to escort him to Shengjing. I am worried about who should be sent. Since you miss the master, then you can send him a
Cheng, please go back and see the master by the way!"
"I don't!" Toto glared and refused immediately: "Wherever you are, I will be there! Mr. Murong has eight hundred thoughts, no one can harm him, I must be by your side to protect you."
Lu Ning couldn't help but smile bitterly as she looked at the eight-foot-strong man who was losing his temper like a child. Just as she was about to persuade him again, the knock on the door rang again.
Lu Ning quickly got up and opened the door, and Ma Huilan walked in with a cheerful face: "After traveling for so many days, why did you get up so early, young gang leader? Why don't you take a little rest?"
"I'm used to going to bed early and getting up early!" Lu Ning smiled.
Ma Huilan pulled up a chair and sat down, smiling: "I just went to see Brother Hu, and his injuries are almost healed. You young people are bored staying here every day. So, I
How about taking you out for a walk today?"
Toto slapped his thigh and laughed and said, "Great! I've heard for a long time that Lingzhou's wine and food are famous all over the world. I just want to go out and have a look!"
