time is with you

Chapter 42
It turned out that the man was the paparazzi who secretly photographed Mei Hongyuan's father and daughter in the small town of Binnan last time. After that incident of spreading rumors, not only was the business license of his magazine revoked, but it also went bankrupt not long after. After searching for a job, he repeatedly hit a wall. After some inquiries, he found out that he had already been blacklisted in the industry. His good buddy also quietly revealed the "insider information", "Which one of you is not easy to offend, but you want to offend the Mei Group."

Hehe, it's really too aggressive, don't you even give him a way to survive?
Kari's money is decreasing day by day, and he is almost at the end of his rope. When he thinks of the culprit who caused him to be so downcast, he hates so much that his heart, liver, spleen, kidney and lungs will explode!

Dogs will jump over the wall when they are in a hurry, let alone people have been pushed to the end?Mei Hongyuan's goal was too big, and there were people guarding him when he went in and out, so it was difficult to strike, so he quietly followed Mei Ran.

After squatting at the entrance of the hospital for two days, I figured out the regularity of her commute to and from get off work, and finally decided to do it at a certain time. I even thought of the worst situation before, but what I didn't expect was that before the person was snatched, I was caught Get into the police station.

An hour and a half later, the fugitive accomplice was also arrested and returned.

Fu Shijin's personal lawyer also arrived on the back foot. He had already understood what happened in advance, "His behavior has constituted a crime of kidnapping, but according to the specific circumstances, there is still a lot of room for gray areas..."

"Ten years?" Fu Shijin caressed the back of the person in his arms, and smiled softly, but there was no smile in his laughter, only a chill, mixed with anger like pouring into the sky, "Not enough."

The lawyer has been with him for almost seven years, and the tacit understanding is excellent. Naturally, he knows what this means, and after thinking about it for a while, he said, "Then I will think of other ways."

Fu Shijin let out a "huh".

"Can we go home?" Mei Ran suddenly raised her head and shook his hand lightly.

"Okay," he pulled her up, "I'll take you home."

Mei Ran remained silent all night. She recalled the kidnapping case six years ago. Similar scenes and similar fears. She sat on the sofa and twisted her ten fingers together. The shadow printed on the floor was thin and long. .

Fu Shijin poured a cup of hot water for her, but Mei Ran reached out to take it in a daze but was held by him, and he fed her personally.

After drinking more than half of it, Mei Ran's dry lips also turned a little bloody. She suddenly put her arms around his neck, leaned towards him, and took a deep breath until she confirmed that the familiar breath was not an illusion, and the tight string in her heart was slightly loosened. down.

"Take me to the shower."

"it is good."

The man took off her pants, saw the red wound on her knee, his heart tightened suddenly, and his brows frowned into a "Chuan", "Are you injured!?"

Only now did he see the bruises on her wrists and the back of her neck. Her skin was fair and tender. He didn't dare to use too much force when she was emotional, but she was so carefully cared for. He was kidnapped, and when he thought of this, Fu Shijin's chest hurt uncontrollably.

If something really happened, he couldn't forgive himself!
"Ran Ran, I'm sorry."

I did not protect you.

He once thought that if he was by her side six years ago, she might not have to suffer so much, but now that he is by her side, he still hurt her...

How could Mei Ran not know his self-blame, she pulled out a shallow smile, "None of us can predict what accidents will happen in the future, you saved me in the end."

At that moment, she was in the dark, and he was the only light in her world.

"Does it hurt?" The man's voice was harsh.

Mei Ran shook her head first, and when she saw him looking at her with concern, she belatedly felt a sense of grievance, "It hurts a bit."

In fact, because the pants are very thick, the knees are just torn. Although it looks red, it really doesn't hurt too much.

I just want him to feel sorry for himself, not guilt and self-blame.

"Not anymore." He solemnly placed a kiss on her forehead.

After taking a bath, Fu Shijin carried her to the bed, went out to find the medicine box, sat on the edge of the bed, supported her leg and put it on his lap, sterilized it with a cotton swab, and then applied the medicine. He moved very lightly , but Mei Ran is a person who doesn't feel pain, she flinched inadvertently, and saw him frown slightly.

"Am I hurting you?"

"……No."

The strange thing is that after taking the medicine and chatting on his back for a while, the unbearable depression and fear seemed to disappear. It seemed that with this man by his side, all the wind and rain in this world would be gone. There is nothing to be afraid of.

He gave her enough sense of security, as long as she could feel his breath, she could fall asleep at ease.

Fu Shijin looked deeply at the pair of slender legs wrapped around his waist that had just been medicated, and asked in a hoarse voice, "Huh?"

"Don't you feel sorry for me?" Her eyes were open, beautiful and innocent.

She must not know how charming and soft she is in his eyes at this moment, she doesn't need to take the initiative to seduce, just a look, and he is willing to surrender.

"You are hurt."

Mei Ran half straightened her body and kissed his lips, "Will it affect it?"

"It doesn't affect."

The bedside lamp turned on slowly, and the light covered the two people on the bed, elongating and magnifying the overlapping shadows that were intimate as if they were one person. After a while, the soft orange light also began to vibrate slightly.

After a long time, Mei Ran fell asleep extremely tired, and the man stared at her peaceful sleeping face for a long time, until the mobile phone by the bed vibrated, and then vibrated continuously.

It's a lawyer calling.

After hanging up the phone, Fu Shijin looked at the starry night sky, his eyes soaked with the coldness of the cold night, he stood on the balcony for a while longer, then turned and walked in, stood in front of the bed and waited for the cold air to dissipate Go, then lifted the quilt and lay down.

The person who was sleeping soundly on the bed seemed to feel him, habitually nestled into his arms, hugged his waist with his arms, and pressed his forehead against hers, and said softly, "It's all right, don't be afraid, huh?"

She hugged him even tighter, and he found her hand again, interlocking his fingers, and she calmed down, even breathing much more smoothly.

The next morning, Mei Ran was woken up on time by the biological clock. As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw the man sitting by the bed. She asked suspiciously, "You didn't sleep last night?"

"Good morning." He rubbed her messy hair and smiled dotingly.

She looked at the faint blue in his eyes, and couldn't help reaching out to touch it. As soon as he raised his head, he pressed his thin lips against her arm, sucking gently, compassionately and tenderly.

"Go wash up first, breakfast is already hot... Today is the weekend, let's go out and relax together."

As he spoke, he helped her get dressed.

"Are we going to spend the night outside?" Mei Ran asked curiously when she saw him put the folded clothes into the suitcase while eating breakfast.

Fu Shijin turned around, the gray plaid pajamas on his body were wrinkled, the buttons were not fastened, his chest was slightly exposed, and his short black hair was also a little messy, which made him look a little more lazy, but it would not make people feel unkempt .

Four words suddenly appeared in Mei Ran's mind: IKEA.

Even she herself couldn't help but burst out laughing. To be honest, if she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she would never have believed that the cold man who happened to meet in France back then would be associated with such a warm and homely word. .

Fu Shijin continued to pack her luggage. She walked over and sat opposite him, and asked him while eating bread, "Where are we going?"

He said a location.

"Where is that place?" Mei Ran asked again.

He just glanced sideways at her, "You'll love it there."

Mei Ran leaned on his back, "Trust your eyes!"

"Want to eat?" She handed the half-eaten pineapple bread to his lips.

He took a bite of the place she just bitten, "Drink the milk, we can go out after getting ready."

Mei Ran obeyed obediently.

Half an hour later, when she was sitting in the car, she suddenly remembered something, "Did Dad know what happened yesterday?"

Before he could answer, Mei Ran took out her mobile phone from her bag, turned it on, and saw that there were at least a dozen missed calls from "Lao Mei" on it, and she knew the answer.

"Did you tell him that?"

Mei Ran remembered that his father should be in Macau at this time, and the news was blocked in a timely manner, so it was impossible for him to receive the news so quickly, so this is the only possibility.

"Ran Ran," Fu Shijin looked ahead impartially, "Father has the right to know about this, and he will know sooner or later."

He paused for a moment, "But how to deal with it is my business now."

He has already promised to hand you over to me, so everything related to you in the future will be my business.

The warm winter sun shone from the side of the man, making his outline a bit blurred, and a ray of light danced on his tall nose bridge. Mei Ran stared at that place, and her heart seemed to be smeared by the soft light to make her feel peaceful And safe.

Thousands of words have been said in the seemingly silent place.

When the car was driving on the viaduct, Mei Ran received a call from her father, "Dad."

"Think about it." The other side only said these two words, and then fell into a deep silence.

"Father," Mei Ran's voice was soft, and there was a hint of hoarseness under careful listening, "I had a dream last night. I dreamed of my mother. She also said a lot to me."

"What did you say?"

"She said you were sad, let me comfort you."

Mei Hongyuan smiled, "Father knows."

Isn't it his greatest happiness to have such a caring daughter?
The father and daughter chatted for another half an hour before ending the call. Mei Ran let out a soft breath, "My father doesn't seem to believe me, but I really dreamed about my mother."

"I know."

"Hey?"

He also knew that she also dreamed about the scene of that year. In the dream, she was so fragile, grabbing his pajamas with all her strength, like a person drifting in the vast sea suddenly finding a piece of driftwood... He hugged her and spent the night Never closed my eyes.

In the dead of night, Fu Shijin was startled and afraid of an attack. If he hadn't heard the security guard's loud shout, he would have walked straight into the main entrance of the hospital. If she had been taken away... his whole body would turn cold Thorough... There is no way to imagine this if.

"Am I talking in my sleep?"

At this time, he just got off the viaduct, Fu Shijin briefly identified the direction, and drove the car to an inconspicuous path covered by green trees on the right.

"Say it." The man coughed lightly and put his hand on his lips, "You kept calling 'Mom' while hugging me."

Thinking of that scene, Mei Ran couldn't laugh or cry, "I didn't say anything else, did I?"

"Nothing."

"Hey," she turned her head from the window again, "You didn't turn on the navigation? Have you been here before?"

If it is correct, they have been driving for more than three hours, and this place should not belong to City A.

"Come here once."

The mountain road was rough and muddy, and the car was rickety. Fu Shijin could only slow down. Mei Ran noticed that there were several cars parked on the lawn in front of her. She casually glanced at the license plates.

Is there any important event?
Just as Mei Ran was thinking, a girl in a white down jacket ran over and waved vigorously at the two of them. Fu Shijin stopped the car and slowly lowered the window.

The girl covered her mouth and yelled "Wow", as if she couldn't believe her eyes, she looked at it again, she didn't expect to be a handsome guy just by stopping, she couldn't help being elated, "Handsome guy, there is a mineral spring in your car water?"

Afterwards, a boy about her age appeared behind the girl, who seemed to be her boyfriend, "Look at you nympho, why don't you hurry up and wipe off your drool!"

The girl poked him with an elbow, and said in a joking tone, "You yourself are shabby, and you have lowered my aesthetic level. It's not easy to meet a good-looking one now, why!" She grinned at him He stared, "I'm still not allowed to watch?"

The boy should be used to being hurt by her, and he said shortly, "Look, he is not your boyfriend!"

As the "fuse wire", Fu Shijin's expression on his face was still clear and indifferent. It could almost be said that he was watching with a cold eye. On the contrary, Mei Ran turned her head to listen to their quarrel, and the more she listened, the more interesting she found it.

"We don't seem to have quarreled?"

"how?"

Mei Ran covered her mouth and smiled, "Let's have a fight sometime."

It was the first time I heard that someone wanted to take the initiative to quarrel, Fu Shijin rubbed the center of his eyebrows, with a helpless and indulgent smile on his lips, "It's up to you."

"You are so easy to talk, how can we quarrel like this?"

The girl gained the upper hand, and patted her boyfriend on the shoulder in satisfaction. Looking at the handsome profile of the man in the car, she seemed to have finally remembered something. She bent down, and her eyes fell on Mei Ran, her mouth opened for a while Didn't close.

Ah, it turns out that the handsome guy already has a girlfriend.

She knocked on the car window, "Excuse me, but is there any water?"

"Yes." Mei Ran took out two bottles of water from the glove box and handed them over.

The girl took it while thanking her. She stared blankly at the label on the bottle. She didn't dare to hand out the ten yuan in her hand, so she bowed and thanked again.

After driving for another hour, the car finally stopped in front of a family's door. Fu Shijin got out of the car and walked around to the back of the car, taking out several bags of gifts from the trunk.

Mei Ran didn't know that he had prepared these things in advance, and she thought to herself, maybe this is not just a simple outing to "relax".

Someone in the room had already heard the movement and came out. The wooden door was pushed open with a "squeak", and a round head was exposed first. He blinked his big black eyes and looked at Fu Shijin and Mei Ran curiously, with a childish voice. asked, "Who are you looking for?"

At the same time, an old voice sounded from inside, "Shunshun, who's here?"

As he said that, the old man had already come to the front, and when he saw the two people outside the door, the joy on his face overshadowed the surprise, "Shi Jin is here. Is this your wife?"

She glanced at Mei Ran, smiled kindly, "Come, come, come in and sit."

The old man in front of him is dressed in plain clothes, with an orange turban on his head, a few strands of white hair are faintly exposed at the corners, and he has deep wrinkles when he smiles. It looks like he is at least 80 years old.

"This is my aunt's elder sister."

Mei Ran came to her senses and yelled, and the old man kept nodding her head in response, "Hey! Good! What a handsome girl!"

"You said you, it's fine when people come, and it's too strange to bring such things." She turned around and called her little grandson who was hiding behind her, "Shunshun, call someone."

The little boy poked his head out shyly and glanced at them, then turned around and ran into the house quickly.

"This child...is afraid of life!"

The furnishings in the house are simple, and there are not many furniture, but every corner is almost spotless, and it can be seen that it has been taken care of very thoughtfully and meticulously.

"They are all busy with business in the city, and now there are only me and Shun Shun at home," the old lady said with a smile, "It's good to have the old and the young as companions."

"How are you doing recently?"

"Okay!" said the old lady, "It's just that people tend to forget things when they are old. A few days ago, I heard that you were bringing your daughter-in-law here. I was afraid that I would forget about it, so I asked Shun Shun to come to the room every morning. Remind me. A lot of cars have come outside these two days, and I have to come out every half an hour to see if you are here..."

some days ago?Mei Ran thought to herself, didn't she come out this time on a whim?He had already planned to bring her here? "

The man suddenly held her hand under the table, and asked with a low smile, "What are you thinking about so preoccupied?"

He moved a little closer, causing the old lady on the opposite side to look over, Mei Ran just smiled, picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea.Ten minutes later, she couldn't sit still. She had already drank a lot of hot water in the car, but now her stomach was swollen and uncomfortable. She tugged on his cuff and whispered, "I want to go to the bathroom."

Fu Shijin hadn't been here for many years, so naturally he couldn't remember the location of the bathroom, so he could only ask the old lady, and she stood up immediately, "It's outside, I'll take you there."

Mei Ran waved her hand, "Don't bother you, I can go by myself."

After going to the bathroom, she walked around and felt that the air was fresh and pleasant. At this time, a car passed by the opened courtyard door. She took a look and it turned out to be a news interview car of a certain TV station. The doubts in her heart bigger.
