[Lou Li the Pretender] Orphan Note

2.

At this moment, Yu Manli was in a dream.

The dream was full of flames, ammunition, and gunpowder smoke, and then everything was quiet, and one after another became a house of fire, and then the three-painted, three-painted and broken, and then came to the endless hell.

In the endless fire of karma, the evil spirits were wearing horror masks, and she was walking alone among the thorns, with the endless surging sound of the Styx next to her ears.

She finally came to hell, that is where she belongs, and that clean and bright young man belongs to the world after all.

And she is just a person in prison, who has tried her best to escape the rope of fate all her life, but in vain.

She saw the towering King Yama, with a blue face and fangs, vicious, counting the people she had killed and the crimes she committed...and of course the people she loved... pushing a person with a promising future to the road of no return, Although it wasn't her wish, it was also because of her - the debt she owed has long since had no chance to repay in this life, and she was also abandoned, and finally lost the meaning of living.

But King Yan Luo didn't immediately push her into the animal realm, but changed the subject: All living beings have made mistakes, you may wish to offset the mistakes, and maybe there is still a ray of redemption.

Yu Manli's heart was already ashamed, but for some reason there was a turnaround.

King Yama was mysterious, "Are you willing or not?"

In fact, I can't wait for Manli to think so much, one day in the underground, but one year in the world, so in the blink of an eye, King Yan Luo nodded for her—"Very good, you can return to your original body."

She saw a flash of white light in front of her eyes, and she lost consciousness.

When she woke up, she smelled the fragrance of flowers, but her hands were sore and numb. She turned her head and saw that the back of her hand was swollen, which was obviously the result of daily infusion.

This ward is very high-end, so the cost is not cheap, she knew the reason, and smiled bitterly in her heart, Mingtai didn't have to be like this, he didn't owe her anything, if he felt that he had failed her, it was really her fault.

How lucky to meet him, how can it become a knot in his heart.

The little nurse came in and saw her wake up, she was about to jump up in surprise, "Miss Yu? Oh, don't sit up, it's really hard to wake up, lie down and rest quickly, I'll call and call Master Ming."

Yu Manli smiled weakly: "I'm fine...don't call."

"Master Ming comes to see you almost every day, he will be very happy when you wake up."

Yes, but she didn't know whether she should wake up or not.In other words, she didn't know whether Yu Manli was alive or not. When she thought of the dream just now, what kind of hints did it have?How will she pay it back?

Paying for it with her life was probably the only thing she could do, but she was afraid of burdening him.

That's what it's like to like someone, there's nothing you can do about it.

Yu Manli smiled helplessly, and let the little nurse call.

Someone from the Ming family soon came, not Mingtai, but the second brother Mingcheng.

He has a handsome and warm appearance, and his attitude is very polite, which makes people feel inexplicably safe.

"If Ms. Yu doesn't want to stay in the hospital anymore, according to elder brother's request, the Ming family has a villa in the suburbs..."

She smiled slightly, "Don't bother, I have a place to go."

If the body is like duckweed, where else can I go?There was a trace of pity in Mingcheng's eyes, but he put it another way, "Actually, it's the elder brother who wants to see Miss Yu, and it's time for employment, and the eldest brother also needs help, or rather, it's the Ming family who wants to trouble Miss Yu. "

People who do not want to receive favors often refuse because they are afraid that they will not be able to repay the favors. Mingcheng empathizes with him, and naturally knows how to stay with Yu Manli.

Sure enough, Yu Manli raised her eyebrows slightly, "What does Mr. Ming need someone like me for?"

Mingcheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "Tomorrow night I will pick up Miss Yu to the hotel, and Mr. Ming will explain everything to you."

On the second day, Yu Manli tidied up her face a little, she didn't need to make up, she just wanted to be clean and fresh, and her clothes were still a green cotton gown, although it was simple, it looked more elegant when she wore it.

Minglou carefully looked at the woman sitting opposite, but saw that she looked calm, as if she didn't care who he was, nor was she curious about what he had to say.

interesting.

Minglou thought back to the women he had seen before. There were ladies who had read poetry and books, there were passionate foreign girls, there were hot and enchanting prostitutes, and there were also ruthless green plums.

But this little girl who was originally born in Fengyuechang, but has received strict spy training, has an indescribable special taste.

Pure?No, there was a story in her eyes.

Is it complicated?No, the way she looked at him said it all—she had already taken things lightly.

As old as Mingtai, but much more mature than him, no wonder he doesn't like her, it turns out that he can't understand her.

Minglou thought to himself.

Yu Manli was also looking at Minglou, she thought, is this Mingtai's eldest brother?It's not like two brothers.

Mingtai is as bright and lively as the sun, while the man in front of him is as elegant and deep as the moonlight.

The two had their own concerns until the waiter came forward with the menu.

"What would Miss Yu want to eat?"

"It's all right."

She was telling the truth, anything is fine, but Minglou frowned slightly, "Healed from a serious illness, let's have some light side dishes, plus raw boiled scallop porridge."

He ordered another steak and a bottle of red wine.

Yu Manli suddenly smiled, "Mr. Ming eats meat and drinks, but I want porridge, isn't it fair?"

Minglou smiled, "The desserts in this restaurant are good, I recommend jelly."

Yu Manli nodded, and the waiter withdrew.

Occasionally chatted a few words during the meal, all of which were novel experiences from Minglou's travels in various countries, and occasionally mentioned a few words about the past, but Yu Manli casually mentioned them, and did not want to talk about them.

The meal was almost over, and Minglou just got to the point, "What are Miss Yu's future plans?"

Yu Manli was lowering her head and scratching the jelly with a small teaspoon. She raised the spoon and sipped it slowly. After listening to his question, she said slowly, "It depends on what Mr. Ming needs."

She obviously didn't forget Ah Cheng's impromptu excuse.Minglou laughed, thinking it was funny.

"However, my needs should not be put ahead of your plans. If Miss Yu has any plans, they should naturally take priority." He said politely.

Yu Manli sneered in her heart, she had heard too many twists and turns, and no one spoke more beautifully than Minglou, but she was used to it, but suddenly felt tired, and missed Mingtai's straightforwardness even more.

Of course she wouldn't show it, she just bit the spoon and said: "Eat people's mouths are short, Mr. Ming said, I will do my best."

You come and go, but they are evenly matched.

Minglou smiled faintly, "I have received an invitation letter from St. John's University in Shanghai. I plan to teach economics for a semester. I still need a teaching assistant."

Yu Manli was a little surprised, she frowned, "Mr. Ah Cheng is more suitable."

Ming Lou raised his eyebrows, "Ah Cheng? He's about to take over the company that Ming's built in Suzhou, and he will often travel between the two places in the future, so I'm afraid he won't be able to handle the job."

Yu Manli sighed, "But Mr. Ming, the skills I have learned have nothing to do with economics."

At this moment, the waiter brought a cup of hot coffee, Minglou pushed the plate in front of Manli, "I just ate something raw and cold, let's drink something warm."

Yu Manli was startled, but she lowered her head and took a sip of coffee silently.

Very bitter, she forgot to put sugar and milk first.

But she smiled slightly, "Mr. Ming, you take care of me like this just because Ming Tai asked you to, right? Then there's no need, you know, he always underestimates others."

The implication is that she can live alone without pity and sympathy. They are all self-righteous.

Minglou wanted to say something else, but Yu Manli had already got up, "Mr. Ming, thank you for your treat today. I think I'm leaving Shanghai tomorrow morning. Can you help me book a boat ticket to Hunan?"

If there is any unfulfilled wish for the rest of my life, it is that I have not returned to my hometown for a long time, and the grass and trees in my hometown are all blurred in my memory.

Ming Lou nodded, "Of course."

Yu Manli smiled, "So, I am very grateful to Mr. Ming."
