Chapter 171 The color of the world is like dust
There was a shallow pool of blood not far away on the ground.
Ning Sangyu pushed the table away and stood up against the wall. She grabbed her sleeves nervously, her face tense, "Can I go now?"
Her voice was soft and seemed to carry a hint of mist and rain, but no one would underestimate her words when she refuted Zhang Zhibo just now.
Ning Sangyu's heart was still beating a little fast and her legs were a little weak.
Panicked.
The more Xiang Li looked at her, the more he realized that her frightened look now was completely different from the eloquent look she had just had.
"Are you afraid of me?"
Hearing his cold voice, Ning Sangyu tried to keep her voice steady and said honestly, "I'm afraid."
In this world, no one is not afraid of warlords, and no one is not afraid of soldiers.
I heard that the warlords have many concubines around them, and they would kidnap any pretty ones to be their concubines. This makes me even more scared.
Besides, the look he gave her this morning was extremely cold and stern. Ning Sangyu accidentally met his gaze and her heart trembled.
There were footsteps coming from upstairs, and soldiers were escorting several people in suits or cheongsams down. The front and back doors of Yingle Building were surrounded tightly by soldiers from Marshal Yue's mansion.
Lin Pingyi ran over with a suitcase in his arms and glanced at Ning Sangyu, "Marshal, they have documents to hand over."
I saw this girl this morning.
Yue Xiangli glanced at the box without any expression, "Send it to the government office to Zhou Wanhua and ask him if he needs me to send some soldiers to guard it. The secrets can be stolen by others."
"Yes!" Lin Pingyi carried the box and left with a group of soldiers.
He didn't say anything, and Ning Sangyu didn't dare to leave. She stood aside with her head down.
"Didn't you say you were leaving? Let's go."
Ning Sangyu looked up when she heard that, moved towards the door step by step, and then ran out despite his gaze.
When she went out, the soldiers guarding the door all looked at her, their eyes still filled with alertness, their guns raised.
Ning Sangyu paused for a moment.
The sound of military boots stomping on the ground behind him approached, "Put it down."
The sound of guns being put away fell in unison.
Ning Sangyu looked back at him and ran away along the corner.
Yue Xiangli watched her back disappear into the night.
Cowardly.
Wanjiezhu looked at him and thought, alas, he had scared away the target of the mission again. He will regret it in the future.
But it doesn’t matter, it’s happy to watch its dog host having fun!
Seeing Yue Xiangli coming towards him, guard Yang Weiguo opened the car door, got in and took off his hat.
"Marshal, when I came here, Uncle Zhao called from the hospital and said that the second young master fell off his horse. Do you want to go and take a look?"
"Is the situation serious?"
"My right leg is broken. I have to stay in the hospital for a few days."
"Go again tomorrow."
Upon hearing this, Yang Weiguo drove back to Yue Mansion, and Yue approved the new military training plan with Li.
The next morning, Yue Xiangli went to the hospital.
Yue Xiangchen hadn't gotten up yet and was sleeping soundly on the hospital bed with a scratch on his face. Zhao Bo was reading a book wearing reading glasses on the accompanying bed next to him.
When Zhao Bo saw him come in, he whispered, "Xiang Chen was in so much pain last night that he couldn't sleep and went to sleep in the early morning."
Yue Xiangli nodded, picked up the newspaper beside him and started reading. About an hour later, Yue Xiangchen opened his eyes.
Zhao Bo helped him sit up.
Yue Xiangchen looked at Yue Xiangli and said, "Brother, can you peel an apple for me?"
Yue Xiangli took the apple next to him and threw it to him, "Eat it."
Yue Xiangchen caught it and whispered loudly: "Brother, can't you be gentle to me even though I'm hurt?"
"Eat it or not."
Yue Xiangchen placed the apple on the bedside, took the toiletries handed to him by Zhao Bo, and after washing, he took the apple and took a big bite.
"How did you fall?"
"When I was competing with Han Xueyi, he bumped into me on purpose and we both fell, but he broke both legs." Yue Xiangchen said with a beaming face.
"you are happy?"
"I'm happy. He broke two legs and I broke one leg. How can I not be happy?"
Yue Xiangli walked to his bedside and patted his face with a folded newspaper, poking the scrapes on his face with the edges.
"Hiss! It hurts! Brother, what are you doing?" Yue Xiangchen waved away the newspaper.
"I still feel the pain."
"Han Xueyi is not a good person. You competed with him, but you ended up having to sit in a wheelchair for several months."
"It's just a broken bone, what's there to be happy about?"
"You know you can't get out of this unscathed and still take the risk. How stupid."
"Brother, you scolded me again."
"What did he do to provoke you this time?"
"He wanted to take a girl from the class back home to be his concubine. He said that if I won the competition, he would let that girl go."
Yue Xiangli said in a bland voice, "Just because he said so, we have to compete? Is your brother's title just for show?"
"If you were any stronger, he wouldn't dare to challenge you to a competition. What is your brain for if you're being led by the nose?"
"I agreed in the heat of the moment, and I can't go back on my word in front of so many people." Yue Xiangchen shrank his head when he was scolded.
"It's just regret. Why not? Is he a gentleman? Keeping a promise depends on who the other party is."
"In today's world, face is sometimes not that important."
"We're going to the barracks tomorrow."
He simply didn't have to go to school and was sent to the military camp to let Duan Huxia scold him for a few months to temper his temper.
"But brother, my leg is injured." Yue Xiangchen glared.
"Train your brain, and the military doctor will change your medicine."
"Oh."
"Yue Xiangchen, this is a chaotic world. If you don't grow up, no one can protect you for the rest of your life."
"For the first seventeen years, you were far away in your hometown and I couldn't take care of you. This year, I was busy cleaning up the remnants and couldn't take care of you. Now, you are under my care."
Looking at his brother's stern eyes, Yue Xiangchen opened his mouth, then nodded his head which was confused by the scolding, "I will grow up."
His brother had always been what he wanted to be, calm and strong, brave and resourceful.
My brother's 18 years old were a legendary one. He seized power from the Lin warlords, changed the flag, and then step by step firmly controlled the three eastern provinces of Qing Dynasty. He moved into Zhencheng half a year ago.
At the age of eighteen, he had accomplished nothing.
Yue Xiangli turned and left the ward.
Uncle Zhao patted Yue Xiangchen on the shoulder and said, "Xiangchen, you are brothers, and he cares about you too."
Current affairs are chaotic, and only you can save yourself.
"I understand. I am indeed unstable." Yue Xiangchen lowered his head. "Brother was right to scold me."
Yue Xiangli went downstairs, followed by Yang Weiguo. His military uniform and cold aura made people around him retreat.
"Host, the target of the mission is ahead." Wanjiezhu reminded when we reached the corner of the first floor.
In front is the hospital's small garden, with branches of varying shades of green and magnolia buds in full bloom. Many family members are taking their patients out for a walk in the garden, and it's quite lively with both men and women.
Ning Sangyu was wearing a light purple cheongsam with dark patterns and was walking towards him, supporting a man who looked to be in his twenties and was wearing a hospital gown.
At this moment, she had a smile on her face and her voice was soft when she spoke to the man next to her. She was not as nervous as she was the previous two times they met.
If I were to describe her, it would be that she is so charming that she is as white as dust in the world.
Noticing someone was looking at her, Ning Sangyu looked over, tightened her hold on Ji Huaimin's hand slightly, and pursed her lips.
Ji Huaimin followed her gaze, the smile on his face faded, and he took Ning Sangyu to make way for the other party.
Yue withdrew his gaze from Li and left with Yang Weiguo.
As he walked by, Ning Sangyu secretly glanced at him, but she didn't expect that he was also looking at her.
