The Taming of the Ruffian Hero

Two months later, Beijing.

The heat is coming.

Zhang Dong dragged an air cushion water tank and set up a small swimming pool in the house.Chen Yuanxi was naked and soaked in the water, remembering that police officer Cao in the small town kept reporting that people in Moshi had been arrested one after another, but the people who often provided clues or provided arrests were the most wanted fugitives who killed three people a few years ago, He Fu .

Officer Cao asked about He Fu's identity several times, but Chen Yuanxi never mentioned a word.

"Okay, if you are so tired, you can come down too." Chen Yuanxi said.

Zhang Dong took off his vest, turned over and rolled down. The two played in the water for a while, but they didn't notice the sound of the door lock opening.

When Hong Xuan walked in, Chen Yuanxi was lying on Zhang Dong's body, ladling water on his head, and helping him wash his hair. When they saw Hong Xuan, they immediately looked like children who had done something wrong.

Hong Xuan came here to discuss Chen Yuanxi's marriage.

However, Chen Yuanxi spoke plausibly about Zhao Mingjiang's last words.

"The man is gone." Hongxuan sighed, and said, "Wenxi, I never thought that there was any love between you and Zhao Yuan. Love, he and you, maybe just like me and your father, are brothers in life and death. You can do it for yourself." .”

"What is the right way?" Zhang Dong asked: "Uncle Xuan, you can't see the whole world even if you travel all over the world."

"Everyone has their laws, and nature has its own laws. You are so old, why don't you understand?" Hong Xuan asked.

"You are righteous to Uncle Lin, Bo Yuntian, that's you. Zhao Yuan and him have affection and righteousness, that's them." Zhang Dong replied loudly.

"Then what about you and him?!" Hong Xuan grabbed Zhang Dong's collar with his hands, his tiger eyes widened angrily: "I've looked at you coldly for so long, what about you and him?!"

"It's because Wenxi and I are both mature men, and we know how to judge the world better." Zhang Dong looked calm, his eyes clear and calm.

"Zhao Yuan is married! How could he figure it out!" Hong Xuan asked sharply.

Chen Yuanxi's face suddenly turned pale.

Only then did he know that Zhao Yuan had already held a wedding with Shu Xiaoman in City G when he hadn't heard anything outside the window for the past two months.

"Others gave birth to twins and have a successful career. You are already 27! Zhang Dong, if I remember correctly, you are 31 this year! The two of you live here all day long and do some indecent things. Let me ask you, Luo Have you subdued the law? Has Mo Qian been shot? Do you have any thoughts?" Hong Xuan couldn't help but stern.

Seeing that Hongxuan suddenly became the father of an ordinary son who urged marriage, Zhang Dong couldn't help laughing secretly.

"I didn't do anything unscrupulous, but what I did was unscrupulous? I'm tired and want to rest, that's it!" Chen Yuanxi blushed suddenly at this moment, and said angrily, but Hong Xuan hit a chestnut chisel on the head .

"I didn't do anything wrong, just leave me alone!" Chen Yuanxi sat on the chair angrily, turned her face away and didn't speak.

"It's that kid again!" Hong Xuan hadn't seen Chen Yuanxi like this for many years, and couldn't help being angry and funny.

"I was originally a child, and now I only have you as my father, and I will always be a child in front of you!" Chen Yuanxi turned her face away and said.

"I can't talk to you!" Hong Xuan seemed to be angry.

"Then don't talk about it, you have to be angry, lock yourself in the room and hold back, don't be in front of me!" Chen Yuanxi said flatly.

Although Hongxuan was in good health, after so many years of fatigue, and with the fact that he was more than half of his destiny, he was very angry at Chen Yuanxi and felt quite unwell, so he went to the inner bedroom to rest.

"He, is he really married this time?" When Hongxuan entered, Chen Yuanxi sat in a daze. Zhang Dong saw that his left index finger seemed to be bleeding from his right hand.

Zhang Dong knew that he had no reason to speak at this moment, but when the night breeze blew up, he put on a coat for Chen Yuanxi who had stood by the independent window for more than two hours.

Zhao Yuan's wedding was grand and ostentatious, as if he wanted everyone to know that Mr. Zhao, the president of YH Company, married a beautiful lady.The twins are very good-looking. The couple at the wedding are loving and respectful to each other. They are very happy during the banquet.

The bride wore a bright red evening dress, with a long skirt flowing down gracefully, like a red sunset, extremely bright.

But the hem of the skirt suddenly began to twist, and gradually, as if it came alive, it became a blood-red scar on Hong Xuan's face, a scar that had not faded away on Gu Xi's forehead, and then a scar appeared on the hem of the skirt. The face turned, but it was the deceased Wang Xiang, who was smiling and seemed to be crying.

Chen Yuanxi woke up suddenly from the nightmare, and Zhang Dong also sat up beside her.

"It's okay, it's okay." Zhang Dong hugged Chen Yuanxi into his arms, patted his arm gently, put his chin on Chen Yuanxi's forehead, and said softly.

The door was pushed open suddenly, and Hong Xuan turned on the light with a puzzled expression on his face. When he saw this situation, his face immediately turned livid. Seeing Chen Yuanxi was sweating profusely, his face was pale, and his face gradually softened.

Chen Yuanxi broke free from Zhang Dong, and smiled at Hongxuan: "It's okay."

"You never have nightmares." Hong Xuan said.

"Probably, I've done too many bad things." Chen Yuanxi smiled, wiping her sweat with a pillow towel.

Before closing the door, Hongxuan added: "Did the pillow set an alarm clock and suddenly kept shaking?"

Zhang Dong smiled bitterly: "Yes, I will be transferred later."

It was night, Zhang Dong kept pressing the pillow and did not dare to get up again, while Chen Yuanxi leaned on his arm and gradually calmed down.

The three lived together for a few days, and Hong Xuan became more and more unhappy. Finally, under Zhang Dong's suggestion, the three decided to return to the small town together to meet Hong Xuan's daughter, Hong Yan.

As soon as they arrived at Ziyun Piano Store, Hongxuan handed over a pinhole camera to Chen Yuanxi.

"Uncle Hongxuan, you...really not going?" Chen Yuanxi asked.

Hong Xuan shook his head.

Presumably before Hongxuan made that decision, he had already thought that he might never see her again in this life.Hongxuan passed by countless times, and even sneaked into the interior of Ziyun Piano Store, hiding to watch his daughter playing the piano in the house, but he still couldn't recognize each other again.Seeing Hongxuan like this, what Hongyan should think, he is not sure, rather than doing this, it would be better to let her gradually accept that her father had actually passed away eight years ago.

Chen Yuanxi counted the numbers, and it was more than eight years since he and his childhood playmates were seen again, even though he lived in the small town for so long and passed by Ziyun Piano Store several times.

The two met face to face and barely knew each other.

Having not seen each other for many years, Chen Yuanxi wanted to search for some childhood topics, but she couldn't figure it out, so she asked a little about her situation in these years.Knowing that since she graduated, Chen Yuanxi transferred Ziyun Piano Store to her, and has been running it here, and even opened two small branches in the small town.

Not long after, Chen Yuanxi went straight to the point, he was eager to hear Hongyan say that she already had a sweetheart.

But Hongyan is single.

"I'm waiting for you to come back." Hongyan said with a smile.

"Wait for me?" Chen Yuanxi asked.

"If you don't come back and make it clear to me, I won't be able to marry anymore! Delay me for so many years!" Hong Yan said with a smile.

Only then did Chen Yuanxi know that when Hongxuan's accident happened, he contacted two people, one was his mother, Huang Xiya, and the other was his wife, and what they conveyed was Lin Ziwei's will.

Hongxuan regarded Lin Ziwei's order as his faith, and naturally hoped that Hongyan would marry Chen Yuanxi. Moreover, Hongyan and Chen Yuanxi had made a baby marriage since childhood. Both parties knew this. He thought that Hongyan would definitely marry.When he heard his daughter's words, he couldn't believe it.

"We haven't seen each other for more than eight years and three months. These years, we are far apart. Even if you return to the small town, we are finally in the middle of people coming and going, and we haven't been able to look back at each other. You don't know me, I don't know you, Especially you have changed so much! I can only read everything about you from the news, from the newspapers, how can there be that kind of relationship between us?" Hongyan smiled lightly, his face There is a slight redness on the face.

"I have always respected Uncle Lin, and I regret his departure. After so many years, I won't say more. But his will is only valid for you, but it cannot restrain me. Although my mother told me , Dad wants me to marry you, even if I want to obey Dad's wishes, I still have to respect your wishes, don't I? You see, for so many years, you didn't explain it earlier. As for me, I will marry anyone I want No, brother Wenxi, how can you make me up?" Hongyan then said playfully, two shallow dimples appeared on his face.

Chen Yuanxi couldn't help her eyes turning red, and hugged Hongyan tightly in her arms: "Sister, Uncle Hongxuan is my father, you are not my younger brother, you are not my step-sister, you are my real sister!"

"I really have two good family members. One is my father, who obviously survived the catastrophe. Now that Chen Tianjiao has been shot, he doesn't know where he has fled. He hasn't come home for more than eight years! One is my brother, who ran away. The Chen family, staged an Infernal Affairs, ruined the Chen family, and took revenge for Uncle Lin. It’s been more than eight years since I’ve seen you, really..." When Hongyan said this, his eyes turned red, and then he whispered in Chen Yuanxi’s arms sobbing.

Chen Yuanxi suddenly felt that something had been melted in her heart, turning into a pool of spring water, singing softly in the warm sunlight.

"Yanyan, I'm sorry, it's not good to be a brother. What my brother did in the past was too dangerous, so I'm afraid I can't protect you." Chen Yuanxi recalled scene after scene at Hong Xuan's house when she was a child, and recalled that she was severely trained by Hong Xuan When I was sick, there was always a sister who wiped the wound for me, and I remembered that when I was sick, there was always a sweet and crooked voice haunting me.Excuse!For many years, because of all these, she was so cold-hearted that she refused to take care of her for a single minute, leaving her only Ziyun Piano Shop which seemed to have a good profit.

"Brother, you have told me that I can unpack the letters and photos sent back by Brother Yunche and Sister Ziping. You knew your intentions from the very first letter. I read every one of them. Yes, really, every story, I know, I remember, I feel the same way! I cry with them, I am happy with them, Brother Xi, I sincerely hope that you and Brother Yuan can go well together, the world is very happy Big, it’s still early, in the future, it’s the world of our younger generation, isn’t it?” Hong Yan said with a smile.

"What about them?" Chen Yuanxi asked.

"They have children, and they are temporarily living in the prairies of Latin America. They say that they want to go to Antarctica soon! They say they will take a lot of pictures of Antarctica, they say they will take pictures of the aurora, and they say that there are the ends of the earth!" Hongyan hugged Chen Yuanxi tightly.

"Sister, thank you, you understand all of this." Chen Yuanxi intuitively felt peaceful.

After Chen Yuanxi and Zhang Dong left, Hongyan stood at the door of Ziyun Piano Store, tightly clutching the lost half of the pendant, tears streaming down her cheeks again.

Brother Xi, I can finally, I don't have to wait for you.
