Chapter 98
The little courage Mu Rou had accumulated over the past few days fell away, and she almost ran away.
She felt so useless. She dared to say something to thousands of people, but when she was facing only him and Chen Ange, why didn't she dare to continue saying it.
I just felt so wronged that I wanted to cry.
On the balcony, Chen Ange looked thoughtfully at Mu Rou's hurried away figure and said, "She was asking you about the result just now."
Duan Xi: "Yeah."
"If I didn't come, would you have agreed?"
Duan Xi was silent for a moment, and then replied "Yes" without daring to offend his conscience.
And he suddenly found that after he said these words, he seemed to have suddenly lost half of the world, and there was a huge sense of loss in his heart, as if no amount of things could fill it.
Chen Ange sighed quietly and smiled to himself: "Sometimes I also wonder how we will get along in the future. Will we always be the boss and consultant, or will we become friends who drift away? You are not a thing in the pool, and you will not be limited in the future.
In the little Danjiang, in the little Millennium."
If there is no emotional fetters, it doesn't matter where Duan Xi develops.
If he announces that he is looking for another career now, countless companies will be hungry for talents; even if he announces that he will go it alone now, there will be a large number of investors flocking to him.
He stayed in Millennium just because Chen Ange was here.
"Some things have to be faced sooner or later, right?" Chen Ange said, "Actually, do you know, before you appeared, I had always planned to spend this life alone. That's why that idiot Hong Kun was
I will try my best to find a match, because my father entrusted him with it before he died, hoping that he could help me find a suitable home."
What she actually wanted to say was that because of your appearance, the original plan was shaken.
Duan Xi didn't know what to say.
Chen Ange took a small sip of wine and said, "But what you said today made me suddenly realize. You said that in the future you would become another Xun Xiulin, and I would become another Cheng Manling? It would be very painful, right?"
"
Regarding the relationship between these two people, some people lamented it and thought that more than ten years of time were missed; some people said that lovers eventually got married, but they were just nameless and indifferent. Some people felt that it was bitter at first and then sweet, and some felt that it was bitter from beginning to end.
Like a bowl of coptis.
Duan Xi shook his head: "But any one of you is something I couldn't hope for before. Now I don't dare to be too greedy and make further unreasonable thoughts. I am just an ordinary person..."
"I gave you permission to be greedy, and you can handle the rest by yourself!" Chen Ange interrupted him and walked away from the balcony, leaving Duan Xi with a stunned look on his face.
There are many multi-partner marriages in the Kunlun world today, but they are often caused by the strong man and the weak woman. Like Kong Zhuo, even three wives and four concubines are common.
But if strength changes shape, like the one where Xun Xiulin gradually rose to a high position relying on the support of his wife's family, even if he has been very successful, in the face of the huge and terrifying power of his wife's family, he and Cheng Manling can still only maintain the appearance of a confidant.
relation.
In Duan Xi's view, Chen Ange is undoubtedly the most powerful among women, with arrogance as unsurmountable as an iceberg. So he never expected that she would make such a decision in the first place.
It was quite unexpected, and it completely confused him.
But no matter what, he still had to go to Mu Rou first. Because his silence just now not only hurt her heart, but also hurt her self-esteem, right? This is probably the first time in her life that such a timid girl must have gathered her courage.
Such courage.
…
When Duan Xi returned to the banquet hall, Mu Rou could no longer be seen.
All the way back to the room, he and Mu Rou lived next door. When he passed by, he knocked on the door, but there was no sound. It wasn't until he knocked again two minutes later that Mu Rou's voice came from inside.
When she opened the door, Mu Rou showed a smile, but Duan Xi saw that there was still a trace of redness in the corners of her eyes. The light makeup she originally applied did not have time to touch up.
"I cried!"
"No." Mu Rou blinked her eyes twice, as if she wanted to show that she was not aggrieved at all.
Duan Xi stared at her and said seriously: "I like you!"
The excitement in Mu Rou's eyes was beyond words. She closed the door with a bang and pressed against it. Her heart was ups and downs. After she broke down emotionally, she completely wet her sleeves with tears and cried all over her face. No matter how hard he knocked on the door outside, she didn't get the answer.
.
Duan Xi thought to herself that she still wanted to explain to her what Chen Ange had just said, but seeing her current mood swings, he gave her some time to recover. He went back to his room first and came back to talk to her later.
I opened the door and turned on the light, only to find an envelope with a glued seal at my feet.
There was nothing written on the cover. After tearing it open, there was only a piece of paper, but the handwriting on it was very familiar - Wan Muqiu's calligraphy!
Duan Xi is very familiar with this vigorous word, and it is unmistakable.
Lao Wan was here just now?
The content of the letter is only a few words——
"I don't want to implicate you, but you took the initiative to find Hong Camellia, and it is inevitable that you will be secretly monitored. She can no longer be trusted, try not to have contact with her, and you must pay attention to your own safety at all times."
"There is no room for maneuver in General Luo's matter, and I will inevitably be spared sooner or later. If this trip never comes back, it will not be in vain. Please don't miss me."
"If Ning Xiu refuses to give up, I can go to 9-2-301 Heilongchi Community next to the Danjiang Garrison Headquarters. If Ning Xiu and my brother are getting along well, then just pretend that this is not a problem and don't look for trouble."
Duan Xi gasped and rushed out like the wind, trying in vain to find Wan Muqiu's figure, but there was no trace.
"This bastard!" Duan Xi clenched his fists fiercely, having no strength to use.
Reading the content of the letter, you can tell that Wan Muqiu is going to do something big, and he makes a decisive decision. It is very likely that he will assassinate the deputy chief Ning Xianzhi. That's why he said that if the matter fails, at least there will be a vigorous effort.
In fact, if Duan Xi had not taken the initiative to contact Hongshancha, Wan Muqiu would not have involved him at all. But Wan Muqiu was worried that Duan Xi would be deceived by Hongshancha, so even before he died, he quietly sent a letter to Duan Xi.
Be careful.
In fact, Duan Xi has never had anything to do with red camellia. Including the previous inquiry, it was just human nature, and the questions were all about what was said on the road. With those things alone, not only can't the crime be cured, but it is also nothing.
secret.
But he never thought that Hong Camellia would defect to the opponent's camp at this time.
Now that Duan Xi has shown concern about the Wan Muqiu incident, it is possible for Ning Xian to follow suit. After all, Duan Xi is not an ordinary person, he is a former evil dragon.
Now Duan Xi really wants to find Wan Muqiu and tell him to calm down and not take risks. But as a super strong man on the secret front, he knows Wan Muqiu's current situation better than anyone else - he can't escape.
A small blockade of the Danjiang River can prevent people like the rebels or gray rats from escaping. And according to the tight security level of Shangjing, not even Lu Fulong can easily get in and out, let alone Wan Muqiu.
When he first entered Beijing, Duan Xi's only hope was that the whole case would turn around, Director Luo Chongwen could come out safely, and Wan Muqiu would also be innocent.
But now all hope is gone.
But no matter what, Duan Xi doesn't want Wan Muqiu to take the road of no return. Even if he can't escape to Beijing, he can hide. Why can't such a large super first-tier city just live for a year and a half? What if it happens again in the future?
Are there any changes?
Thinking of this, he immediately knocked on Chen Ange's door. Chen Ange was also a little depressed about the emotional entanglement just now. Only after knocking on the door did he know that such a big event had happened.
"Try your last effort." Duan Xi said with a gloomy face, "If you can find him and successfully dissuade him, that would be the best; but if not, try to see if you can deal with it."
"You're still interfering!" Even such a bold woman as Chen Ange turned pale.
"In fact, there is a high probability that I am just trying my best, because it is more likely that I will miss him."
Yes, given the size of Shangjing, where can he find it?
Since he guessed that Wan Muqiu might assassinate Ning Xianzhi, he could only go near Ning Xian's home, but Duan Xi had no other options.
Fortunately, this place is not too far from the home of the head of the Supervisory Headquarters where Ning Xian lives, and Duan Xi quietly disappears into the night alone.
Behind the scenes, Chen Ange was distraught and prayed silently.
…
Late at night, the streets of Shangjing were brightly lit, creating a prosperous atmosphere.
After walking through a main street and two small alleys, Duan Xi came to a red brick walled compound surrounded by green trees. Duan Xi was very aware of the tightness of the security here.
He could only sit here and wait, which was a stupid method.
But if Wan Muqiu is really here, as long as he uses Qi Jin, he will be able to sense it immediately. Even if he cannot be stopped by then, at least he may be able to respond secretly.
Military limousines entered the compound one after another, but nothing was abnormal. Duan Xi huddled in a small alley not far away and waited in the night wind for more than half an hour.
Finally, a military sedan with a top-notch license plate came from a distance. Duan Xi remembered that this was Ning Xianzhi's car.
He started to slow down as he approached the entrance of the compound, but at this moment, a sudden gunshot pierced the night sky.
Duan Xi sensed that an aura erupted a hundred meters away from him, and it was close to the wall of the courtyard. Lao Wan, it must be this guy, but he didn't expect him to be hiding in such a dark place under the lamp.
The tire of the car was punctured, and then a figure jumped up like a tiger and pounced hard on the driver's seat of the military sedan. According to Ning Xianzhi's driving habits, he usually sits behind the driver, which is the safest position.
s position.
boom!
With a violent sound, Wan Muqiu smashed the glass with his huge and powerful iron fist, and fired a burst into the car, followed by two miserable screams.
But at this time, the guards in the compound were also alarmed and rushed out in a panic. The messy sound of leather boots made people's hearts palpitate. Then they fired indiscriminately, with bullets raining down like rain.
Wan Muqiu's figure staggered, he must have been shot. Based on instinct, he struggled to get into a dark alley, and at this moment he was shot again.
Here, Duan Xi has been waiting for a long time. With rich operational experience, Duan Xi knows that if the opponent takes action and flees, there is a high probability that they will choose this route.
"Lao Wan!" Duan Xi roared in a low voice, which was suppressed by the gunfire outside. Only Wan Muqiu who was directly opposite could hear it.
Chapter completed!
