Looking at the bright moon
Chapter 116
Zhong Yaozong became the guardian envoy with the shortest tenure in Yancheng. In less than two months, he was dismissed from his position, reduced to a prisoner, and brought back to Huajing by the inspector for trial.This ending was expected by He Lingshan a long time ago, so when he received the news, he was not too surprised.As early as a week ago, the moment the inspector decided to thoroughly investigate Zhong Yaozong, Zhong Yaozong was destined to have this day.The inspector was a serious person, and he tried his best to turn Zhong Yaozong's career as an official upside down, not only found evidence that he had linked up with Ruan Lingyi, but even Zhong Yaozong's past of covering up cigarette dealers when he was the guardian of Xuancheng Town did not escape. past.
After several days and nights of interrogation, Zhong Yaozong finally let go and explained why he cooperated with Ruan Lingyi in framing the Wen family.He had originally dreamed of relying on smoke and soil to make money day by day. How could he not be jealous of a rich and prosperous land like Yannan.However, there is a Wen family who strictly prohibits smoking and soil sitting here. If Wen Mingyu didn't have the permission, even if he was the supervisor of Yannan, his plan might not be successful.So he hit it off with Ruan Lingyi, one in the open and the other in the dark, working together to eradicate their common enemy.
So far, the two crimes against the Wen family have been completely cleared, and even Yue Duanming, who was implicated in the first place, was reinstated.Once Zhong Yaozong left, Yannan seemed to be the same Yannan, nothing had changed, all hotel ballrooms and docks were open as usual, and the workers and directors who had been idle for several months finally had something to do.
Wen Mingyu and He Lingshan walked on the long stairs leading to the basement, listening to He Lingshan tell what happened when he was not around.When the other party talked about the process of sending Xu Shuhe to find Feng Jinyou, he couldn't help laughing and said: "How do you know there is such a person?"
He Lingshan was walking in front, turned around when he heard the words, stepped back downstairs leaning on the railing, and replied: "After the explosion happened at the pier that day, I went to check it immediately. There were four police officers in the car, but Only three bodies were found. I don’t think the person who planted the bomb should have killed himself.”
Speaking of the last sentence, he himself couldn't help but smile slightly.Wen Mingyu shook his head for his rare embarrassment, and said: "You are a smart boy." Seeing that He Lingshan still raised his head and smiled at him, he couldn't help reminding: "Hey, look at your feet."
He Lingshan stretched out a hand towards him, asking him to pull him.Wen Mingyu said: "I accidentally fell down, do you still want to drag me along?"
Even so, he still held He Lingshan's hand.The door leading to the basement was open, and the sunlight reflected the corridor extremely brightly.Looking up from He Lingshan's side, Wen Mingyu's whole body was also illuminated transparently, with fluffy gold borders on his hair, and the hand holding him also had a distinct warmth.He Lingshan grabbed him with two hands instead, and said softly: "Look, I can also settle your troubles for you. You need to pay more attention to other things in the future."
Wen Mingyu said: "What else?"
"Eat well, rest well..." He Lingshan paused, and his tone became much more serious: "Live well with me."
This time he finally didn't say these words with melancholy, but with a smile on his face, as if he was making some beautiful wish that would eventually come true.But who can say for sure?Wen Mingyu didn't laugh at him for being stupid, but just sighed, looked at him and said, "I promise you, I will never abandon you."
The two came to a door, and there were guards present, so it was inconvenient to have an intimate conversation.He Lingshan put on a business-like attitude and asked the gatekeeper, "How is the one inside?"
The guard bowed to them and replied, "It's very honest, it's not noisy, and I ate everything brought in."
He Lingshan nodded, glanced at Wen Mingyu, and asked, "Do you want to talk to him in person?"
Wen Mingyu teased: "You are the one who is in charge now. As a wounded person, I just watch from the sidelines."
For some reason, He Lingshan blushed when he heard the words "being the master of the house".He hummed vaguely, and didn't know what he was promising, so he pushed open the door and went in.The room inside the door was lit, it was empty and clean, without any furnishings, only the four walls were bare.The lights were not too bright, and people could not be seen in the corner, but their shadows were cast on the wall.The hand was stretched long, and the outline of the hand resting on the knee was clearly outlined, with the fingertips hanging down, it looked very relaxed.He Lingshan walked in that direction, and sure enough, he saw Ling Yi sitting on the floor against the wall.The man took off his coat and spread it on the ground. This was the only part of his body that looked rather embarrassed.
Since He Lingshan appeared, Lingyi's gaze has been fixed on him, and she didn't even pay attention to Wen Mingyu who was standing behind.When He Lingshan approached, he actually took the initiative to say: "I recognize you."
Because he was one of the planners of the assassination at the Baifeng Hotel, and he was a long-term opponent of Wen Mingyu, He Lingshan couldn't put on a good face, but replied with a straight face: "I also know you, Master Ruan Er. "Lingyi smiled softly, like an elder forgiving an ignorant child: "You and your uncle really look alike, and they are so annoying." He finally turned his gaze to Wen Mingyu, nodded, and regarded it as a beating Greeting: "Mr. Wen, what terms did you discuss with my father?"
Wen Mingyu's attitude was not as cold as He Lingshan's, and he joked with him: "Why don't you guess?"
"It's going to cost him a lot." Ling Yi pressed her head against the wall and sighed, "You won't do business that loses money. Poor my father, at such an age, he still has to take care of my worthless son." Aftermath. Oh, what a joke."
His tone contained a kind of bleak sarcasm, after Wen Mingyu heard it, he asked suddenly: "You let Sheng Jingyuan go?"
"Don't mention him to me." Ling Yi said coldly: "For me, this person is already dead, and I don't want to talk about a dead person."
At first, He Lingshan thought that the other party really killed Jing Yuan, and looked at Wen Mingyu with surprise.Wen Mingyu shook his head at him, and said calmly: "If you let go of the person I'm looking for in private, aren't you afraid that I will blame you for him?" Ling Yi said: "Then it's on me. I'm not as good as a human being. I admit whether you want to kill me or make things difficult for my father. But I can tell you frankly, Mr. Wen, I don't like you very much. If I had my life to live, I would definitely not Let you go."
This sentence immediately aroused He Lingshan's anger. He lifted Lingyi's collar, approached the other party and said, "Then you'd better not fall into my hands a second time, and let me catch you again, no matter who comes to intercede." , I will send your body directly to Huqing."
Ling Yi met his sharp gaze, but her face was blank. After a while, she smiled and murmured in a low voice: "Sheng Jingyuan is right, you really protect your father. Both of you, uncle and nephew, are the same. Fool, if you recognize a person, you won't change your mind even if it turns into ashes."
Wen Mingyu touched He Lingshan's head, motioned for him to let go, and then said: "Master Ruan Er, who was the first person to report to your father after I found out that you were taken away?"
As if realizing something, Ling Yi stared at him for a moment, panic appeared in her eyes, and asked doubtfully, "Is it Jing Yuan?"
"You are not too stupid." Wen Mingyu said: "Your father should have told you my rules. Anyone who has done anything to me, no matter who he is, I will definitely return it back. Now the reason why you You are still sitting here unscathed, all because your father promised me one thing."
Lingyi finally lost her composure, grabbed Wen Mingyu's clothes, and said in a trembling voice: "No, don't get involved with him, I don't want to have anything to do with him anymore! Wen Mingyu, it is my Ruan family who hurt you. Take revenge, come and take revenge on me. I assure you, Sheng Jingyuan will never be an enemy of the Wen family again, without me, he, Sheng Jingyuan, can't do anything!"
Wen Mingyu lowered his eyes to look at him, let him beg one after another, and then said almost pityingly: "It's too late, he and your father are already on the way to Yancheng, he voluntarily replaced you with himself."
Hearing the word voluntary, Ling Yi's face almost twisted, she stared at her red eyes and said in a low voice: "Wen Mingyu, let him go, as long as you let him go, the grievances between us will be wiped out."
Wen Mingyu laughed out loud, pinched Lingyi's chin with his thumb, and forced him to look up at himself: "Second Young Master, why do you still not understand your situation? If you write it off, you will have to say these four words Is it?" After speaking, he threw away the face in his hand: "Your father will arrive tomorrow, please pay attention to your words and deeds before seeing him. After all——" He glanced at He Lingshan, the corners of his mouth curled slightly With a smile: "We, the current Mr. in charge, haven't figured out how to deal with the two of you yet."
Ling Yi tilted her body and sat slumped.His eyes were flushed, the muscles on his cheeks trembled slightly, and his expression couldn't tell whether it was hatred or sadness.When He Lingshan met this person for the first time, he only regarded him as an enemy at first, but now seeing Lingyi's appearance, he was inexplicably touched.He tugged on Wen Mingyu's sleeve and glanced at him. Seeing this, Wen Mingyu left Lingyi without saying a word, and walked out with him.
Wen Mingyu said: "What do you want to say?"
Looking back at the room where the door was closed again, He Lingshan pondered for a moment, then slowly said: "I heard from Shangying that my uncle lied to Ruan Lingyi too much." Wen Mingyu smiled and said: "Seeing him like that, do you sympathize with him? You have to know that although he was deceived, he is not a fool who can be manipulated by others. If he hadn't been interested in Yannan's business, even if Sheng Jingyuan told another one hundred and one thousand lies, he might not have set foot in Yannan One step." He Lingshan said, "My uncle lied to him so badly that he tried his best to save my uncle's life."
Having said this, he suddenly realized why he was particularly touched.Like Ling Yi, he once fell in love with someone consciously hopeless but could not help but persevere.Falling into such a feeling is undoubtedly the greatest betrayal of dignity and reason, but if a person's heart can be completely controlled by reason, he cannot be regarded as an ordinary person.He Lingshan suddenly laughed, ignoring the people around him, he hugged Wen Mingyu beside him.
Wen Mingyu was at a loss for his sudden coquettishness, stroked his shoulder, and said softly: "What's the matter?" He Lingshan shook his head, still watching him with a smile.Fortunately, the person in front of him will never have to experience or know the torment he and Ling Yi are going through together at this moment.Too much time has passed, and now He Lingshan thinks back to his wishful thinking in the past, and it seems so far away that it seems to have happened in a dream.
After several days and nights of interrogation, Zhong Yaozong finally let go and explained why he cooperated with Ruan Lingyi in framing the Wen family.He had originally dreamed of relying on smoke and soil to make money day by day.
