Chapter 368
Gritting her toothbrush, Xiang Wan replied slowly: I was too tired from shopping with them yesterday, and I went to bed early at night, sorry, I didn't see the news.

Zuo Xingyun probably wouldn't respond to this late reply, so she didn't look at her phone after sending the message.

After washing up and going downstairs, she and Zuo Xingyun met at the stairs.

Zuo Xingyun stepped on the steps in a leisurely pace, and his straight suit set off his tall figure, and the function of those gold-rimmed glasses seemed to be to cover up a little arrogance that was inherent in him.

Xiang Wan took the initiative to say hello: "Morning."

"It seems that you had a rare good night's sleep last night." Zuo Xingyun's eyes were slightly smiling, and there seemed to be some deep meaning hidden in these words.

Xiang Wan couldn't help feeling guilty for a while: "Ah... yes, I hope I can keep it up in the future, sleep well, and feel refreshed."

Zuo Xingyun did not answer.

When he reached the first floor, he walked straight to the entrance, apparently not planning to have breakfast.

Looking at the gray sky outside, Xiang Wan reminded, "There will be heavy rain today."

Zuo Xingyun didn't look back, but just waved his hand to signal that he understood.

On the way to school, Xiang Wan stared at Chen who was in a good mood in the driver's seat, and asked abruptly, "Why did Zuo Xingyun go for the past two days on the weekend? He didn't come home until midnight on Saturday night, and there were bloodstains on his clothes." .”

Ah Chen immediately rang the alarm: "Ah? No... I don't know, I'm not with Brother Yun."

Isn't this pure nonsense?

Xiang Wan was speechless for a while: "I'm just worried that he's going to be in trouble, so forget about it."

Ah Chen closed his mouth and pretended to be stupid, his eyes sparkled and foolishly glanced around.If Zuo Xingyun was really not afraid that Xiang Wan would find out, he would have told her a long time ago, what Zuo Xingyun didn't say, how would he dare to tremble?

The sun was shining brightly yesterday, but today is completely different.

Dark clouds were densely deposited over the entire city, as if a long-lost torrential rain was brewing.

The car drove to the school gate, and as soon as Xiang Wan got there, he was almost unable to move an inch due to the strong wind, and his long loose hair was flying wildly on his face, which especially obstructed his sight.

Ah Chen looked at this posture, fearing that she would be blown away by the wind, he hurriedly got out of the car, and used his body to block the wind: "You young girls like to lose weight, and you think thin is good-looking. Look, you can't walk when the wind is strong." baby?"

Xiang Wan wanted to scold him, but seeing how conscientiously he had shielded her from most of the wind, she held back.

After sending her into the school gate, Ah Chen returned to the car.

Seeing that the weather was so scary, Xiang Wan waited indoors and sent Ah Chen a message to ask him to go home first and pick her up after class. There was no need to wait in the car all the time.

On a rainy day, the night came early, and when school was over in the afternoon, it was already dark beyond recognition.

The traffic jam on the road was almost impenetrable, Ah Chen was driving and cursing all the way, he almost stuck his head out of the car window and shouted through the horn.

Looking at him like this, Xiang Wan thought it was funny: "Why are you so irritable? You're not in a hurry, so drive slowly, safety first."

Ah Chen immediately changed his face to her, and smiled: "Aren't I afraid that you will be hungry? This has been blocked for almost an hour."

I can't blame Ah Chen for being irritable, because the time to go home today was a full two hours faster than usual.

Back at the gate of Xiang's house, Xiang Wan saw Zhang's mother waiting in front of the gate with an umbrella through the rain curtain, and a feeling of warmth flowed through his heart.

Seeing her coming back, Mama Zhang immediately went forward to meet her, lest she would get a drop of rain.

Xiang Wan got out of the car and held Mama Zhang's arm affectionately: "I'm almost starving to death, the traffic is too congested."

Zhang Ma patted the back of her cold hand dotingly: "Second Master hasn't come back, and Miss Yu is still waiting for you to eat. The food is hot and can be eaten right away."

A sudden thunderstorm made Xiang Wan shrink back in fright.

Mama Zhang reflexively stretched out her hand to cover her ears: "I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid."

Mama Zhang's palms were rough but warm. To Xiang Wan, she was not only a servant who had stayed in the Xiang family for many years, but also a relative.

As soon as he entered the door, Xiangwan went to the dining room to cook. It was almost eight o'clock, and he was really hungry.

Mama Zhang stayed by her side to help her with the work of shelling shrimp and picking bones from fish, serving her well.

Yu Shu Qi also observed during this period that Xiang Wan almost opened her mouth with her hands out of her clothes. When her family was in a good position, she didn't get this kind of treatment.At first, she felt a little surprised, but after watching more, she got used to it.

Suddenly, a servant hurried in.

After glancing at the dining room, he hurriedly turned and left.

Mama Zhang stopped her: "Are you looking for Lao Yuan?"

The servant stopped and replied, "Yes, Mama Zhang, there is a strange man kneeling in the rain at the door, looking at him, and the bodyguards are watching. I can't find Uncle Yuan."

Xiang Wan was a little puzzled: "Weird?"

The servant didn't know what to say for a moment: "It's just very strange... I said I wanted to see the second master, and told him that the second master was not there, so he didn't leave, and he didn't say anything."

Xiang Wan put down his chopsticks and stood up: "I'll go and have a look."

Zhang Ma followed her worriedly: "I'll be with you, Miss Yu, don't go out, it's raining, and you're pregnant again."

"Okay..." Although Yu Shuqi was curious, she still restrained herself from joining in the fun.

Holding an umbrella, Xiang Wan walked to the gate with Mama Zhang, and sure enough, she saw a man kneeling in the rain, with two bodyguards staring at him from left to right.

The man lowered his head, and he could vaguely see the blood stains on his clothes that even the rain couldn't wash away.

This scene was a bit scary, Xiang Wan didn't dare to get too close, and shouted from a distance of several meters: "Who are you?!"

The man slightly raised his head and glanced at her, but said nothing, maybe because she was not the person he wanted to see.

Xiang Wan boldly took a few steps closer: "You can tell me what you need from Zuo Xingyun, and I can pass it on."

Hearing this, the man finally responded, his voice was hoarse: "I must see him..."

Suddenly, Uncle Yuan hurried over: "Miss, you go back, I'll take care of it here."

When he heard the word 'Miss', the man's eyes lit up.

Xiang Wan was about to turn around and enter the house when the man stood up suddenly, lunged at her, took a knife he took out from nowhere, and pressed it against her slender neck.

This sudden situation shocked everyone, Zhang Ma reacted and howled tremblingly: "What are you doing?! Let go of our lady!"

Xiang Wan was dumbfounded, he didn't expect disaster to come.

The umbrella in her hand fell to the ground, and her whole body was exposed to the downpour. It was hard to tell whether the rain was cooler or the knife on her neck was cooler.

The man excitedly shouted at everyone: "Stand back! I only want to see Zuo Xingyun, and I don't want to kill anyone. Don't force me!"

Uncle Yuan said calmly, "Second Master is not here, it will take some time for him to rush back, why not go in and sit down and have a cup of hot tea, there is no need to make it like this."
