The Reluctant Bride

"It's okay. I was thinking of a design plan." Zuo Panqing shook her head, knowing that Gu Xuewen would definitely not let her recognize Wen Xuejiao: "What about you? Didn't you say there is a task?"

"Tomorrow." Gu Xuewen didn't know how to speak. This time, he might not have time to come back before he caught Zhou Qicheng.

"tomorrow?"

"Tomorrow's task, I don't know how long it will take." Unsure of the trading time, I can only stare at it until I get it.

"Oh." Zuo Panqing nodded clearly. There was a sense of loss in my heart. But because this was his job, she chose to be silent.

"Are you upset?" Gu Xuewen would not have noticed the loss in her eyes if it was normal, but today I listened to what Lin Qianyi said. Do women prefer a sense of stability?

"No." Zuo Panqing shook her head: "This is your job, I understand."

"Really?" Gu Xuewen thought of a brother on the team and said that his wife often complained that he spent too little time with his family: "Don't you want me to change jobs?"

"If I ask you to do it, will you do it?" Zuo Panqing rolled his eyes to him: "This is your job. You are maintaining public order and stability. What reason do I have for you to do this?"

A hint of surprise flashed in Gu Xuewen's eyes: "Then, you don't want me to accompany you more?"

"Yes." The words spoken naturally, Zuo Panqing didn't feel that she was wrong: "You are my husband. Of course I would want you to be with me often, but you have your job. So, I understand you. "

Gu Xuewen squinted her dark eyes slightly, and his deep and gloomy gaze forced into her eyes. She said she understood him. A few simple words made him feel warm. He stretched out his hand to encircle her in his arms.

The corners of her lips were slightly pursed, and she whispered in her ear with a nice deep voice, "Thank you."

His gaze made her feel warm, and she snuggled her body into his arms, she looked as soft as a kitten. That appearance pleased him, with his big hand down, he began to do the moves he had always been familiar with, and she started to be used to it.

Zuo Panqing didn't refuse. Tomorrow he will have a task, which will make him look so serious. It must be a very serious incident.

She didn't ask or talk. What can be done is to support him.

She stretched out her hand to hook his neck, and her initiative caused him to go crazy. Plunder is more powerful and domineering. Give her no room to fight back.

At this time, the night was deep, and a new moon quietly shone into the window, took a look, and secretly pulled a cloud to cover his face.

Gee, shy. So shy!

……………………

When Zuo Panqing got up, Gu Xuewen had already left. As before, there was breakfast on the table. Quickly solve it. She just went to work.

While sitting on the bus shaking, she suddenly thought of something. Wen Xuejiao is in the hospital alone, who brings her breakfast?

Maybe in the hospital?

perhaps? Zuo Panqing couldn't sit still anymore. Without waiting for the car to arrive, she quickly got off the car, bought breakfast at the nearest breakfast shop, then took a taxi and went to the hospital where Wen Xuejiao stayed yesterday.

Waiting for Zuo Panqing to stand at the door of the ward, carrying breakfast was another hesitation. Buying breakfast is on the spur of the moment, but will the delivery of breakfast make her misunderstand? Think you want to recognize her? But he learned.

Zuo Panqing didn't know, and stood at the door of the ward blankly. Don't know if you want to go in. A doctor came over at this time and his eyes lit up when he saw Zuo Panqing. .

"Huh. Aren't you Panqing left?"

Zuo Panqing turned around. The person who came here was a bit familiar, but couldn't remember where she had seen it. Looking at the white coat on the other party, he quickly searched for the doctor he knew: "Are you, Qiqi's cousin? Doctor Zheng?"

"It's really rare that you remember me." Zheng Jiyuan laughed. There was a bit of concern on the gentle face: "Why? Are there relatives hospitalized?"

Zuo Panqing nodded, and pointed to the ward not far away.

"What disease is it?" Zheng Shanyuan is an expert in internal medicine.

"Stomach cancer is advanced." Zuo Panqing felt her heart aching, bit by bit, making her very uncomfortable.

Zheng Shanyuan was stunned for a moment and nodded: "You tell me the name of the patient, and I will help you to see it, if possible. We will help her with conservative treatment, maybe we can live longer."

"Really?" Zuo Panqing's eyes lit up: "Then trouble you, her name is Wen Xuejiao."

"Okay, I see. I'll go and see it for you later." Zheng Shanyuan waved the folder in his hand: "There are still things to do now. I'll go ahead."

"Thank you, Brother Zheng." Zuo Panqing pointed his jaw to him. She was so flustered yesterday that she had forgotten this cousin of Zheng Qimei. I remember the same now.

Feeling a little relaxed, she went into the ward with breakfast. Wen Xuejiao on the hospital bed was asleep, she put down her breakfast, but the very light movements woke her up.

Seeing Zuo Panqing coming, Wen Xuejiao was very surprised, a touch of emotion flashed in her eyes: "Panqing, have you come to see me?"

"I think you might be hungry." Zuo Panqing didn't know how to react correctly, and pointed to the porridge on the bedside: "You are not in good health, drink some porridge."

"Panqing." Wen Xuejiao sat up and happily took Zuo Panqing's hand: "Thank you, thank you for visiting me."

"Don't thank you." Zuo Panqing withdrew her hand: "My company is around here, I just drop by, and I have no other meaning."

"No matter what, if you are willing to come to see me, I am already very happy." Wen Xuejiao was very happy. She took Zuo Panqing's hand: "Panqing, I know my own body. I don't want to be hospitalized. Will you help me with the discharge procedures?"

"How can this work?" Zuo Panqing disapproved: "You are still in poor health. You have to live in a hospital. We will find a doctor for treatment. Maybe there is a chance."

"Don't comfort me." Wen Xuejiao looked desperate: "I know my own body. I don't expect how long I can live. I don't want to stay in the hospital, even if I die. I will die in my own home. "

"You..." Zuo Panqing couldn't say what she wanted to say. Her chest was stuffy, as if something was blocked, making her uncomfortable.

"May I beg you? Help me with the discharge procedures, I want to leave here."

Zuo Panqing looked at her for a long while, and finally nodded helplessly: "Okay."

Seeing Wen Xuejiao's pale face, she pointed to the porridge on the bedside: "You drink the porridge first, and I'll go through the procedures for you."

"Thank you. Panqing." Wen Xuejiao's expression was very touched, and Zuo Panqing didn't care. Turned around and left to go through the procedures for Wen Xuejiao. I wanted to go to Zheng Shanyuan to study Wen Xuejiao's illness, but he went for surgery and she had no choice but to complete the discharge procedures.

Back in the ward, Wen Xuejiao had finished the porridge.

"Let's go. Where do you live, I will take you back."

"You, don't you want to go to work?" Wen Xuejiao's expression hesitated: "Will it bother you? Panqing, don't care about me, you go to work."

"I said I will send you to you." Zuo Panqing was very contradictory. On the one hand, he didn't want to recognize this woman, but he felt sorry for her. When people reach middle age, they don’t have husbands and children.

A woman's life, even if she has money, is still pitiful.

"Then trouble you." Wen Xuejiao breathed a sigh of relief and left Panqing Zuo.

After getting in the taxi, Zuo Panqing called Minister Wang and said that she would go to the company again this afternoon. When I hung up the phone, I saw Wen Xuejiao looking at her moved.

"Panqing, you are so kind. Thank you."

"Nothing to thank." Zuo Panqing looked out the window: "Where is your driver?"

"He has something to do in his hometown these few days, and he won't come over until he is finished."

"Oh."

silence. Zuo Panqing couldn't find anything to tell her. Wen Xuejiao felt that this was very good, and took Zuo Panqing's hand: "Panqing. How have you been doing these years?"

"I'm fine." I want to withdraw my hand, but Wen Xuejiao's hand is very cold. The weather is cool in autumn, and I don't know what to do in winter.

My heart softened, my hand did not withdraw.

"is it?"

"Yes." Zuo Panqing nodded: "My parents are very good to me."

"I know." Wen Xuejiao smiled bitterly: "I am sorry for you. I don't think your mother will forgive me in this life."

Zuo Panqing was silent, her parents forgive her for not knowing, at least she still has a trace of resistance in her heart.

The taxi arrived at the destination in silence. Zuo Panqing got out of the car and was startled when she looked at the house in front of her.

A three-story villa. European-style exterior wall, beige carved pillars. Looking to the right, a large garden at least exceeds Qianping. Various plants in the garden are vying for beauty.

Wen Xuejiao got out of the car and walked to Zuo Panqing and stood still: "This is the house left behind when the dead ghost divorced me. He is taking that woman abroad now. Here, I don't like it anymore."

Zuo Panqing nodded, and followed Wen Xuejiao in. The tall living room space is not inferior to the luxury outside. Furniture imported from Italy. The crystal lamp above the head. There are several paintings hanging on the wall. From the perspective of her studying jewelry design, those paintings are of great value.

The carpet under my feet is so soft that I can't hear any sound when I step on it. The body turned to Wen Xuejiao, she was looking at herself expectantly.

"It's very big and beautiful. I picked everything back, but I live alone. Panqing. I'm really tired. I'm going to die. I want to give you all here. Okay. ?"

"Not good." Zuo Panqing refused. She didn't want her things, especially the things she got from another man: "I don't want your things. You can rest if you have nothing to do. I will go now."

"Panqing." Wen Xuejiao took her hand: "Can't you sit with me for a while? Let's chat, just like ordinary mothers and daughters, can't we?"

Zuo Panqing stood there still, ordinary mother and daughter? Do ordinary mothers and daughters only meet once in decades? It wasn't that I didn't mind, thinking about it, finally broke away from her hand, turned around and left without looking back.

Wen Xuejiao looked at her back, with a smile on her face begging to see her, changing into a trace of coldness. Take out the phone and press a few numbers. He gave a few words lightly.

……………………

That night. Qiangzi stared at the entertainment city across the road with a puzzled expression. His eyes turned to Gu Xuewen, who was sitting very quietly in the car.

"Boss. What are you talking about in Qicheng this week? You enter and exit this kind of place every day these days. I have not seen him go to deal with Boss Wu at all. Why is this?"

It's not only Zhou Qicheng, but also boss Wu has been in entertainment venues every day. The difference is that it is a different entertainment venue from Zhouqicheng. Hadron had no idea what these two big drug lords wanted to do.

Gu Xuewen looked very solemn, staring at the neon lights on the opposite side. The same is not clear about the purpose of Zhou Qicheng. If you say that he is going to use the casino to make transactions. Then he should at least appear in the same entertainment venue as Boss Wu to be established, right?

The people he sent to follow Boss Wu said that he had no intention of trading at all. What are these two people doing?

"Your people are staring at Boss Wu. Is there any other movement from him? For example, contact with other people in the Dong Bang?"

"No." Qiangzi shook his head: "I have never seen him come into contact with anyone, but his subordinates come here every day to have fun and play with women."

There is something wrong, something very wrong. Gu Xuewen felt a sense of anxiety in his heart. The name of another person flashed in his mind: "Where is Wen Xuejiao? Have you guys followed her?"

"Ah? Follow Wen Xuejiao?" Qiangzi was stunned for a moment: "No, there is not enough manpower, so how can I have time and energy——"

"Qianzi." Gu Xuewen stopped him from saying anything else: "I'll give you three hours to find out where Wen Xuejiao is, and then send someone to follow her. Did you hear that?"

"Boss, are you right?" Three hours? Isn't this killing him?

"Don't call it." Gu Xuewen looked very serious: "If I'm right, the person who shot this time is not Zhou Qicheng, but Wen Xuejiao."

"What?" Qiangzi was stunned: "But Wen Xuejiao has never been involved in the drug trade. She has always been living in seclusion as a military adviser for Zhou Qicheng."

"Never participated. It doesn't mean not participating this time." Gu Xuewen believed in his instincts, especially when Wen Xuejiao suddenly appeared to approach Zuo Panqing.

Think of Zuo Panqing. His heart beat a few beats, and he didn't care about the task, so he took out his mobile phone to make a call. Hadron pointed to the other side of the road at this time.

"Head, look, Zhou Qicheng has come out."

"what--"

Gu Xuewen looked up and saw Zhou Qicheng coming out. He looked around very vigilantly. A black RV drove in front of him. He got in the car and turned around and left.

Gu Xuewen didn't move, and picked up the walkie-talkie: "Nighthawk One, Go to the southeast of target a, hurry up to keep up."

"Received on number one." The voice from the other side of the walkie-talkie came clearly. The intercom rang again.

"Nighthawk 9 report. Target b is out of the casino at this time and is heading southeast."

"Keep up with number nine. Remember to change, don't lose it."

"Received on the 9th." The voice stopped, and Gu Xuewen's heartbeat began to speed up. After hiding for five days, Zhou Qicheng couldn't help but trade today?

He raised his gaze and stared at the direction where the car in front was disappearing: "Number One followed for ten minutes, and Number Two immediately followed. Don't let the target spot it. Did you hear it?"

"Yes."

All the people were all on standby, and their spirits were suddenly concentrated. Success or failure in one fell swoop.

……………………

Zuo Panqing had just taken a shower at home and was about to go to bed when she received a call from Wen Xuejiao.

"Panqing, I'm so sad, and my stomach hurts so much. Come and see me. Okay?"

…………………………

The second one today. Xinyue went to buy shoes for her daughter in the morning and there was no update. Now we are going to pick up the child. Continue tomorrow. Guess what Wen Xuejiao wants to do? Delivered tomorrow.
