Chapter 53: One Light and One Dark
Night falls.
Saturday night was noisier than usual, especially for a big city like Dongshui City.
But the Xu family's mansion was quiet, without any sound of people, as if it had entered midnight early.
All servants were strictly ordered by the housekeeper to stay in their rooms and were prohibited from going outside for activities or work, so as not to disturb the unhappy masters.
In a certain bedroom, the sound of keyboard typing came one after another, crisp and clear to the ears.
“This morning, Asheng and Yunshuang received another commission.”
“This is a sad commission. The family is in decline, and the wise people are blinded by greed. The head of the family, the child who is timid in nature but wants to force himself to mature, the people's hearts gradually change..."
"A family that was originally happy, as long as they gave up some, they could regain their vitality and gain happiness. In the end, It was still like crystal snowflakes, smashing into pieces on the ground. "
" Under Yun Shuang's analysis, Asheng found and caught the man behind everything, a poor old man who was also blinded by greed. It was all the conspiracy of this old man, who dominated everything. With Asheng's comfort, Yun Shuang once again felt relieved from the truth behind the incident."
"The captured head of the family said one last thing: We can't be too greedy. God has already given us a door, so don't expect to open another window."
"Yunshuang knows that one Where is the door, just the window in his mouth, where is it? "
"2019/7/6, Saturday night"
The long silver finger gently pressed the power off button. Hair falls on the keyboard.
On the black screen, a smooth and perfect face was reflected, and the pure eyes were like the stars in the night sky outside, shining brightly on the screen.
She stood up, walked out of the bedroom, and moved slowly in the quiet corridor.
I don’t know how much time passed before she came to the front yard.
There is no one in the courtyard, only dim street lights, lightly illuminating the surroundings.
She quickly came to a rockery, walked around it a few times, and clicked on a gray-brown Taihu stone.
The stone slowly moved away, and a door appeared.
She didn't go in, but looked at the door, as if thinking about something.
After a while, she pressed twice again somewhere on the door, and a small barred window appeared on one side of the door, which could only accommodate one hand.
She put her hand in, groped for a while, and found a USB flash drive...
…………
At this moment, on the second floor, there was a window Just as it was opening, a somewhat immature face was looking in the direction of the rockery.
As he watched, two lines of tears flowed down his young face.
The owner of the face slowly sat down against the window.
“Forgive me, father, uncle, sister.”
“I have always been a coward, a coward who can only pretend to be mature and get praise from everyone.”
"I am not a smart son who dares to explore the unknown and take on the future."
"I'm just a fool who is so scared that he can't sleep at night after watching 300 episodes of Conan, and he doesn't dare to go to the toilet alone."
"Perhaps you knew this, father, that's why you did it Choose this path. You don’t want to be burdened by a useless father and a useless son at the same time. You want to rely on those mysterious powers to keep your family evergreen for generations.”
“Yes. , leaving it to my sister is the right choice, after all, she still has that person’s protection..."
"Yes, this is the best choice for everyone."
The owner of the face held his head and muttered to himself, and did not stand up for a long time.
.........
A bustling commercial pedestrian street in Dongshui City is very noisy with people coming and going.
In a game equipment store. "Teacher, what's so interesting about this PS6 that it's so expensive?" Zhao Han stood in front of a game console and asked hesitantly.
Wen Rensheng stood aside, looking around, without answering, just pointed at the clerk and said: "Ask her."
The female clerk quickly smiled and came over to explain patiently, how powerful and powerful it was, what kind of games it could support...
Wu Shanshan, however, looked around, walked over and said, "Why don't you comfort you?" Is it really okay for that frosty beauty to accompany us out shopping at night?”
“Look what you said, Yun Shuang and I have a pure teacher-student relationship,” Wen Rensheng shook his head and looked at it. Looking at the phone, "Besides, what she needs most now is not comfort from others, but a quiet private space."
"You know her quite well..." Wu Shanshan said sourly
On the other hand, Zhao Han was trying to be cute and cute: "Actually, I just wanted to call Sister Shuang during the day, but I was afraid of being stupid and causing trouble. Why don't we think about buying something for Sister Shuang now?"
"Miss, do you want the host you just looked at to be wrapped up?" the female clerk reminded her at the right time.
"Uh, wrap it up..." Zhao Han took out his credit card depressedly.
After checking out, the three of them will walk out of the store.
At this time, a somewhat surprised voice sounded:
"Cousin, how strange is it that you can come out so late at night?"
The three of them looked up and saw a young man who was over 1.7 meters tall, with sharp edges and corners, and was quite handsome. Unfortunately, his eyes were wandering and there were some freckles under his eyelids, which deducted a lot of points.
Wen Rensheng did not answer immediately, just "cough", as if he didn't really want to talk to the other party.
"Ouyang Tian? What a coincidence, you didn't accompany your new girlfriend?" Wu Shanshan said in a teasing tone. " Oh, she was buying clothes in the store next door, and I sneaked over to see what new games were available," Ouyang Tian said with a smile, "Boss, are you shopping too?"
"Well, Zhao Han, this is my cousin Ouyang Tian. He is the son of my aunt's family and a civilian member of the project center." Wen Rensheng finally breathed out and began to introduce to Zhao Han.
"Hello, hello." Ouyang Tian came over and greeted Zhao Han.
"Hello, Mr. Ouyang." Zhao Han was very polite.
I didn’t expect that Wen Rensheng, like his uncle, valued family ties so much. They took care of their relatives one by one in the company. This is such a philanthropic mind...
"You don't have to be so polite. You can also call me cousin." Ouyang Tian immediately said affectionately.
"Hey, Zhao Han is an honest kid. For a playboy like you, it's better to stay away from her." Wu Shanshan reminded.
“Alas, Shanshan, it’s not like you don’t understand me. I am a frivolous person on the outside, but dedicated on the inside,” Ouyang Tian said seriously, “I will only fall in love with one woman for a period of time, and there are three other things that I don’t like. Principle."
"Yes, your period of time is three months at the most and one week at the minimum." Wu Shanshan said unceremoniously.
Zhao Han was very interested and asked: "Three no's principles?"
"Women from good families, minors, and the most important thing - the women around my cousin. "Ouyang Tian said with his fingers.
"Okay, do you two want to continue shopping?" Wen Rensheng heard this and interrupted the conversation.
"I'll accompany you," Ouyang Tian said immediately, "It just so happens that my cousin and I haven't played together for a long time."
So a few people left the game store and walked along the pedestrian street , walked slowly.
"You just left your new girlfriend there and ignored her?" Wu Shanshan glanced at a boutique fashion store next to her and asked casually.
"It's okay, it's almost time to break up anyway." Ouyang Tian said without caring.
Wu Shanshan exposed it directly: "I think you want to evade the bill again..."
"No way," Ouyang Tian suddenly complained, "It's all because of the marketing of those merchants, what a 'exquisite life' every day "Fashionable Life" has caused the cost of raising a girlfriend to skyrocket. The previous three months' expenses are now only enough for two weeks."
"That's not the case. You can't change it every day." Wu Shanshan glanced at Wen Rensheng and said, "It is this unhealthy trend that makes you men so comfortable."
"What are you looking at me for? I have always been an honest person, don't look at my usual Whenever I see him, I have to stay away for fear of being contaminated by him." Wen Rensheng looked innocent.
“Humph, we are all alike. He is the bright one, you are the dark one.” Wu Shanshan said disdainfully.
