Chapter 220: Really a nice guy
Chapter 220 Really a good person
Listening to the meaning of Wu Chao's words, she clearly still suspects that the disaster that did not happen was man-made.
And Sui Shan is someone he thinks may be connected with this matter.
"I haven't been able to ask anything useful yet."
Wu Chao said: "I have been entangled in the family affairs in the past few days. I have just dealt with it, and I am going to see him in person and try to ask something."
Xu Mingyi folded his hands and forearms on the table in front of him. Hearing this, he subconsciously leaned in his direction and said in a low voice, "I know some ways to make people talk. Do you need me to try it out?" "
This tea room was not so spacious. At this time, her actions made the young man feel that the space around him was narrow, and his breathing suddenly became a little unnatural.
"...If there is nothing wrong with you, then we will go there together later." Wu Chao said in a normal and honest tone as much as possible.
Xu Mingyi said: “It’s better to eat early, not late. Let’s leave after eating early.”
"good."
Wu Chao nodded, took a bite of tea.
"This tea is good." He praised it sincerely.
"Yes, I think it's good, too." Xu Mingyi smiled and said, "It is the can that you asked Suijiang to send yesterday."
Yeah?
Wu Chao unexpectedly raised his eyebrows.
There is also a can in his room, but it tastes like this in the past. Why does it feel so fragrant today?
He took another bite, and said, "That's the skill of the tea maker."
Xu Mingyi smiled and said softly, "Okay, don't flatter me and tease me."
She remembered that the water used by the Wu family for drinking was taken from outside the city early in the morning and sent to the palace. In contrast, she casually took a copper pot to boil a pot of water, and such a flush would not be an exaggeration to say that she was ruining things.
Wu Chao actually drank half a pot.
The two had breakfast together in this tea room.
Then Xu Mingyi went back to the guest room to make some preparations, changed into men's clothing, and got on the carriage with him.
Wu Chao did not ride a horse today.
Xu Mingyi didn't think too much about it, except that it was because of the snow.
But she didn’t know that it used to be snowy, and Wu Chao was also used to riding a horse.
Changed the carriage this time, because she was afraid that she would be too shadowed by the fact that he fell into the lake on a snowy horse, so she deliberately changed to a carriage.
The carriage drove slowly towards the south of the city.
When the carriage stopped, Wu Zhao got out of the carriage first, thinking that the snow under his feet was a little slippery, so he stretched out an arm to help Xu Mingyi.
But as soon as he stretched out his arm, he saw that the girl had jumped down neatly and lightly.
"..." The young man could only withdraw his arm silently without a trace, and put it behind him.
Xu Mingyi's attention was attracted by the other courtyard in front of him, and he didn't notice his movements.
This other courtyard looks ordinary, and it shouldn’t be what he has seen.
She didn't know there was such a place in the last life.
Does this mean that this time between him and her, they really have more intimate and better understanding of each other than in the previous life?
As soon as the two entered the front yard, Xu Mingyi was stunned by the situation.
In the yard, a dozen dogs of different colors and sizes were chasing Sa Huan in the snow nest. When Wu Chao came, they all ran over with their tails wagging, and shouting happily around him, sticking out their tongues and making a ball of white heat. steam.
Look up to see, there are several cats squatting down the corridor.
It's just that compared to the enthusiasm and excitement of the dogs, these cats appear calmer and more dignified, sitting there "watching" all this.
Xu Mingyi was inexplicably infected by the joy of this group of dogs, with a smile on his face, raised his head and asked him: "How come there are so many cats and dogs here?"
"They are all small homeless things brought back from the outside back and forth."
Wu Chao picked up a big yellow dog, but obviously didn't exert any strength on his feet, just reminding it to make way.
Xu Mingyi followed him forward, and said sincerely, "Master Wu is really a good man."
From the fact that he raised the Third Eye, she could see that he is a person who treats small animals well. Such a person can’t be damaged no matter how bad—so, in the past and this life, she has always felt that Wu Chao is a man. Good people.
"..." Wu Zhao was stagnant after hearing this.
Can't change the way of praise?
The two took Sui Jiang to a warm pavilion on the side of the backyard hall.
Wu Chao said to Xu Mingyi: “People are in the secret room, they need to get out of here, but it should be colder. You can sit here, if I can’t ask, try your method again.”
Suishan is different from ordinary people, and even different from ordinary guards. The hardships he has suffered since childhood is very hard to imagine. No matter how tortured by Miss Xu, it may not be useful to him.
So, he also admitted that the reason why he brought Miss Xu over was purely because he wanted to stay with her a little longer.
Xu Mingyi nodded, and sat down in a chair beside him.
Wu Yun saw this, he didn't rush down to the secret room, but moved the brazier in the corner of the wall to her without saying a word.
Then, he took Sui Jiang to open the mechanism and walked out of the secret room.
Seeing the bookshelves closed again, Xu Mingyi's gaze fell back to the smoker's cage in front of him, and he stretched out his hands to bake, as if the cold from his body was dissipated by the warmth.
In the dimly lit room, Suishan, whose hands and feet were tied to the stone pillars with chains, heard movement, and never raised his head, as if he had passed out.
Although does not seem to have much blood on his body, he has not suffered any less these few days, but most of them are not ordinary skin injuries.
"Still refused to say it?"
Wu Chao stood still three steps away from him, and asked aloud.
Hearing this voice, Sui Shan raised his head slightly, concealed by the scattered hair, revealing a pair of bloodshot eyes.
"Is the subordinate ashamed of the son..."
He said in a hoarse voice: "There is nothing worthy of the son's troubles on his subordinates. Please, son, please give your subordinates a happy one..."
Wu Chao looked at him with an unpredictable expression in his eyes.
"I'm becoming more and more curious-what is the secret that allows you to keep your life even if you don't want it."
Suishan tugged at the corner of his mouth weakly.
"The son really asked the wrong person."
"Really." Wu Chao said: "You said to Suijiang that the fake death was just to get away and it had nothing to do with the mountain bandits. But I wanted to ask you, when we were in the inn. Drugs in the diet, such an ordinary method, how did you hide it from you? And why can you persist to the scene of suspended animation after being drugged in your body and blocking a knife for me, and get away ?"
"Or, only you, from the beginning to the end, there is no poison at all in this drug-"
After asking these questions, Wu Chao didn't expect the other party to answer, but said: "Sui Shan, there are too many flaws in your words."
Suishan's lips moved a few times, but he didn't say anything.
At this time, the boy in his sight took a step forward.
The next moment, the boy’s cold and calm voice spread in the empty secret room——
"I thought about it for a long time, but I still couldn't think of a second answer. It seems that there is only Wu family in this world that can make you willing to do this."
Thank you all for your monthly pass, and thank you Lu Qinghan, porridge and other book friends for their rewards.
