Chapter 75 Chu Ning
"Xiao Zhen?" The man stared at Su Jiang , muttering to himself, and the paper in his hand fell onto the fire. Su Luo wanted to pick it up reflexively, but it was too late. He only had time to see a line of small words written on the paper: The mountains and rivers are far away, but they are in vain; the falling flowers and wind and rain make spring even more sad; it is better to cherish the person in front of you.
A gust of night wind blew by, blowing up some sparks, and the half-burned paper flew out of the furnace and fell to the ground. Su Luo always felt that this kind of thing in the temple was just a bluff, and the same poem could be interpreted in any way.
The man was burned with paper, but he didn't care. He just stared at Su Jiang without moving. Su Jiang felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by that man, so she said to Su Luo: "Sister, let's go back."
Before Su Luo could answer, the man said anxiously, "Xiao Zhen, I'm Chu Ning!" and reached out to pull Su Jiang.
Su Jiang took Su Luo back a step, her eyes full of suspicion and vigilance. Su Luo said to the man, "You recognized the wrong person, right? My sister's name is Su Jiang, not Xiao Zhen."
The man's eyes fell straight on Su Jiang. Su Jiang frowned slightly and pulled Su Luo, "Sister, why did you say so much to him?" Then she was about to leave.
Su Luo stopped her and said, "Sister, you don't know, I know this man. He is a guard of the Xuanfu General's Mansion. I have seen him in Nanjing. He is definitely not a bad person."
Su Jiang's brows knitted even tighter, "Are there no bad guys in the Xuanfu General's Mansion?"
"You see, he doesn't look like a bad guy." Su Luo smiled awkwardly, "Don't you think so? Chu Ning?"
The man named Chu Ning then turned his gaze towards Su Luo, slightly surprised, "It's you?"
Su Luo was yelling and talking here, but I didn't pay any attention to her. It's really...
Fortunately, Su Luo was not a pretentious person and was thick-skinned. He coughed dryly to get rid of the embarrassing situation and tried to change the subject, "What are you doing in Zhuxian Town? Looking for Qin Huai?" In Su Luo's not-so-pure heart, he always believed that the man in black and Boss Qin had a deep connection, so when he saw Chu Ning, he thought of Qin Huai.
Chu Ning's eyebrows suddenly raised, "Do you know him?"
"Of course." Su Luo raised his head proudly, "We have a good relationship."
Chu Ning's eyes swept across the faces of Su Luo and the other two, and then paused at Su Jiang for a moment, his eyes slightly narrowed, "You really have no impression of the name Chu Ning?"
Seeing that his eyes were sincere and not fake, Su Jiang put away some of her guard and shook her head slowly, "Young Master must have recognized the wrong person."
The surprise and astonishment in Chu Ning's eyes slowly faded away, and he turned to Su Luo again, "What's your name?"
Su Jiang looked at Su Luo in surprise. It was because Su Luo just said that they knew each other, so why was he asking for names now?
"My name is Su Luo." Su Luo said, then smiled at Su Jiang, "We've only met before, but we've never talked." The meeting process was quite awkward, but Su Luo didn't say this.
"Su Luo?" Chu Ning seemed to have a half-smile on his face, "So you are Su Luo."
"Hmm?" Su Luo came up to him with a smile, "Why? Am I famous?"
Chu Ning raised his eyebrows again, as if he was not used to other people getting close to him. He took a small step back and said, "I am considered famous." When he took a step back, he happened to be standing behind the signature paper that had just been blown to the ground by the wind. There was only one sentence left on the half-burned signature paper: It is better to pity the person in front of you.
Chu Ning didn't know what he was thinking of. He stared at the signature paper in a daze. After a while, he raised his head and looked at Su Jiang with a little confusion. Finally, he sighed, "So that's it."
This time, not only Su Jiang, but even Su Luo felt that this person was a little abnormal mentally. His quiet temperament carried a hint of weirdness.
"Take me to see Qin Huai." Chu Ning seemed to have figured something out. His slightly wrinkled brows relaxed and the cool aura emanating from his body seemed to subside, making him look more relaxed and comfortable, as if he was not in a cold winter night , but in a sunny sea of flowers in Provence.
Su Luo ran to the place where Chu Ning had just stood to empathize with him, but he didn't find the sea of flowers. When he looked up, he saw only the lonely star and the cold moon, which was extremely desolate.
What did he figure out? Su Luo probably had something to do with Su Jiang, otherwise Chu Ning wouldn't have such a sneaky look and a sinister look... No, these two words don't seem to be used to describe handsome men, um... It should be said that Chu Ning's eyebrows were stretched, his eyes were slightly deep, but his expression was very relieved, and he smiled at Su Jiang with the corners of his mouth... Smile, cough!
Su Jiang squeezed Su Luo's hand and whispered, "Sister, do you want to take him back?"
"Isn't he looking for Qin Huai? Isn't Qin Huai at our house?" Su Luo made his intention clear in these two sentences.
Su Jiang frowned again, "Sister has brought back many people in recent days. Uncle and aunt have some complaints, but they just don't say anything because of face. It's so late today, why not invite this young master to stay in the inn for one night, and then notify Young Master Qin to go find him tomorrow, isn't it better?"
"It's not that troublesome." Su Luo smiled and waved her hands, "It's okay, my uncle and aunt won't say anything." It had nothing to do with her. After the money box was sold, she would slip away. No one would care whether they were happy or not.
Seeing that Su Luo insisted, Su Jiang didn't know what to say. Chu Ning, whose mood changed in an instant, followed the two of them, and was as leisurely as a young man from a famous family - the kind of person who doesn't worry about anything but that his life is too leisurely.
Su Luo looked back at the stall, walked up to Chu Ning and said, "Your treatment at the General's Mansion is not good? You have to come out to earn extra money when you are on business trips."
Chu Ning's face froze, and he looked at her helplessly without saying anything. Su Jiang saw this and pulled Su Luo back, saying in a very low voice: "We may have misunderstood. His appearance there is probably the same as our original intention."
Su Jiang spoke in a very low voice, but Chu Ning said from behind: "Yes." Su Luo glanced back, and Chu Ning's eyes were still on Su Jiang. Su Jiang probably noticed something and did not look back. Su Luo deliberately walked a few steps slowly, walked side by side with Chu Ning, and asked in a low voice: "Who does my sister look like to you? Lover or wife?"
Su Jiang, who was walking in front, paused, then quickly moved forward, intending to keep some distance from the two people behind her. Judging from the way she flicked her sleeves, she probably didn't like Su Luo asking this.
Chu Ning stopped and glanced at her. Su Luo thought she would hear a heartbreaking love story, the kind where lovers separated at a young age and never heard from each other again. Unexpectedly, Chu Ning's voice suddenly dropped by two degrees, "What does it have to do with you?"
Su Luo was stunned for two seconds. Although there was no one around, these words were enough to make her shameless face a little embarrassed. When she came to her senses, Chu Ning had caught up with Su Jiang's steps and was following behind her not too far away, as if he had never spoken to her at all.
The original two-tier formation changed to three-tier formation, and Su Luo followed the two people with a pout in the whistling cold wind. Yes, she was indeed a little gossipy, but the synonym of gossip should also include the word "warm-hearted", right? She was just a little "enthusiastic", and she was concerned about her sister, so why did this boy speak coldly to her? She even wanted to see if the two were suitable and help them, after all, it's not something you can encounter every day when you look like your ex-lover. Although science has shown that due to various unknown factors, there is always someone in the world who looks exactly like you, and the worst is 80% similar, but at least Su Luo didn't encounter such a person in the first twenty years of her growth.
Then again, she has traveled through time, so shouldn’t a time traveler be able to stir up trouble everywhere? Shouldn’t a time traveler be able to stir up some waves even when there is no wind? Shouldn’t a time traveler be able to turn a disaster into something invisible with just a few words? Don’t time travelers always have someone to flatter them as soon as they show up? Have you ever seen a time traveler who was so stunned by a handsome guy’s words that she couldn’t say a word? Throughout history, she may be the only one. After N years, when she dies, someone may write a biography about her - a typical example of a failed time traveler. If you have the idea of traveling through time, please watch this movie with your parents . Do not imitate it. The risk factor is five plus signs.
The three of them returned to Su's residence in order. The servant who opened the door was relieved to see them and said that the Second Young Master and Young Master Yun from the Huanghuayuan were very worried and kept saying that they wanted to go out to look for them.
Su Luo felt a little warmer in the heart, and ran all the way back to the west wing, lifted the curtain and peeked into the house, then immediately looked around the yard for weapons - Su Hong and Yun Lang, accompanied by Qin Huai, were fighting in a game of Landlord, shouting and throwing cards, and almost tore the house apart.
Su Luo walked into the room with a sullen face. The three people who were noisy in the room immediately quieted down. Su Luo asked with his eyes: Do you know you are in the wrong?
The three of them stared at the shovel in Su Luo's hand and answered obediently with their eyes: Got it.
One of these three was a former bandit leader, one was a young talent in the business community of the Ming Dynasty, and the other was not a talent but at least he was a "young man" and was a relative of hers, so it was acceptable. Seeing the good attitude of these three people admitting their mistakes, Su Luo finally regained some of the superiority of a time traveler and snorted at Qin Huai, "I brought you a guest."
Qin Huai looked towards the door reflexively. Su Jiang had already lifted the curtain and came in. Chu Ning was behind her. Qin Huai saw Chu Ning clearly and almost fell off the chair . "Zimao?"
Chu Ning looked at Qin Huai, with an indescribable expression on his face. He was about to laugh, but he didn't. Should I say he didn't laugh? The corners of his mouth and eyes were slightly tilted. Su Luo couldn't describe it. This kid always liked to make such an expression, as if it could show how unfathomable he was.
"Zimao? Isn't that Chu Ning?" Su Luo's gaze wandered between Qin Huai and Chu Ning.
Hearing the word "Chu Ning", Qin Huai's face was even more surprised, but there was a hint of understanding and boredom in his eyes, "So you have already introduced each other."
Su Luo was confused. "What's going on? Zimao is his name, right? You ancient people were really troublesome." She threw away the shovel and squatted in front of the charcoal brazier to keep warm.
Yun Lang came over and asked, "What do you mean by 'you ancient people'?"
Su Luo rolled her eyes at him, then remembered that he had been playing by himself instead of going out to look for her, and said unhappily, "You figure it out yourself. You have such poor comprehension ability, and you still want to enter a military academy!"
Qin Huai was amused when he heard Su Luo's words. He smiled wickedly at Chu Ning and continued Su Luo's words: "That's right, you ancient people are really troublesome."
Su Luo felt that he had found the organization, and he looked up and gave him a knowing smile. However, Su Jiang, who was standing at the door, had a look of shock on his face. He was stunned for a long time, and said weakly, "I want to go back." After that, he didn't say hello to everyone, and walked out holding the door frame.
Su Luo noticed that she was a little abnormal, and wanted to chase her out worriedly, but unexpectedly Chu Ning followed her out and turned back to say to Su Luo: "Don't come."
Hey! Su Luo rolled up his sleeves, grabbed a shovel and was about to rush out, but was stopped by Qin Huai, who said that he always had his reasons and he should just ignore it.
Su Luo immediately got angry and said that this kid had bad intentions since he saw my sister, and he insisted that she looked like "Xiao Zhen". I told him that he had recognized the wrong person, but he still kept pestering her. You must go back and have a good talk with their leader and punish him with five hundred military sticks or something.
Qin Huai said that a dead person could be brought back to life after being beaten with five hundred military sticks, and he muttered to himself that this was what Xiao Zhen looked like.
When Su Luo heard this, he hurriedly asked who Xiao Zhen was. Qin Huai also played suspense, saying that if he wanted you to know, he would tell you, but if he didn't want to, he would be angry with me if I told you.
Even without him saying anything, Su Luo could guess roughly. The probability of her being his sister was 5%, and the probability of her being his lover was 95%. It couldn't be his mother, right? How vulgar! How vulgar! This plot was so vulgar that Su Luo despised it!
However, seeing Qin Huai's attitude, Su Luo immediately asked mysteriously whether this boy was related to General Li's family, otherwise why would he be so flattering to him?
Qin Huai asked Chu Ning if he had told you everything about General Li's subordinates?
Su Luo shook his head and said, "It's all my guess."
Qin Huai looked at her helplessly, nodded and said, "You are really a genius."
Su Luo clenched his fist proudly and had long forgotten about Su Jiang's matter.
She forgot, but someone didn't forget. When Su Luo just said that Chu Ning was pestering Su Jiang, Su Hong rushed out, and soon she was screaming outside, with Su Jiang's voice mixed in.
The people in the room hurried out, only to see Su Hong standing next to Su Jiang, rubbing his arm with an angry look on his face. Chu Ning stood opposite and said indifferently in his clear and cold voice, "Please forgive me, brother. I am not used to being too close to others."
