The girl not far in front of him had a beautiful face. Her black hair gently covered her ears. There was a trace of calmness that could not be disturbed. It was pleasing to the eye, but it was only pleasing to the eye.
Xu Le may not have reached the age where he could truly appreciate the beauty of the opposite sex, but he could feel that the other party was outstanding. However, this kind of excellence had nothing to do with him. His current state of mind had really been beyond the word 'lust' for a long time.
Previously, when he was nestled in the corner of the sofa, thinking about the widow on the other side of the wall, the reason why he silently smoked was because he remembered the state of mind when he learned of Zhang Xiaomeng's death. Vaguely, he could roughly understand the pain of Park Ji Ho's fiancée at this time. Under certain circumstances, the joys and sorrows of human beings should be interconnected.
Young people's first love encountered the most unbearable encounter in the world. Xu Le was young, but as Li Xiaotong once said, there was a trace of loneliness in the old house. Love gradually drifted away from him. After several trips with Li Xiaotong and seeing the flattering attitude of the young stars, he did not even have the mood to play along.
To get rid of this state of mind, he needed time, or another girl who could enter his heart.
The light was dim, and the sound outside the window was light. The beautiful girl sat quietly beside him. Unfortunately, it was not that time, so Xu Le just kept silent.
…
…
After an unknown period of time, the train suddenly slowed down. Xu Le woke up from his half-awake state and subconsciously looked out of the window. He saw a large area of lights in the distance of the plain. It should be a big city. He immediately thought that this should be the only stop on the way of the Beijing High-Speed Railway, the capital of South Kezhou.
At this time, Nan Xiangmei, who was sitting in front of him on the sofa, was also awakened from her slight tiredness. She looked out of the window. Their eyes met on the glass that reflected the scene inside the carriage. At the same time, they were stunned.
Nan Xiangmei rubbed the slightly curled thick black hair below her ear and smiled at Xu Le on the glass. Xu Le smiled and nodded, but still did not say anything.
Xu Le felt for the cigarettes in his pocket and put the box on the coffee table. He took out a cigarette, lit it, and took a deep breath. He didn't know if it was because he clearly felt that the beautiful girl next to him was staring at him, but he actually didn't know what to do and coughed twice.
Nan Xiangmei looked at him curiously. The two of them had been sitting in silence for at least an hour. They didn't say a word, but there was always some lingering curiosity. Especially at this time, the coughing sounds in the quiet car were so clear. Her pair of clear eyes overflowed with concern.
Xu Le was a little embarrassed. He felt that it was not appropriate to stay here any longer. He reached for the cigarette box and prepared to leave.
At this moment, the carriage stopped at the platform and the door opened. There should be passengers boarding the carriage.
Xu Le was slightly surprised and turned his gaze to the corridor. There were only three luxurious soft sleeper compartments in this carriage. He and Bai Yulan occupied one. Park Ji Ho's fiancée and the beautiful girl in front of him, who he didn't know the name of, occupied the other one. The other one had been empty. But the problem was that it was only a few hours away from Harbor City. Could there be people coming on the way?
While he was stunned, the uninvited guests had already passed through the corridor and directly came to the lounge. The three sofas occupied a large space. Xu Le wanted to go out at this time, but it was not convenient.
Bai Yulan suddenly came to the corridor and stepped on the side of the carriage. She slightly lowered her head and was as quiet as usual.
Seeing Bai Yulan suddenly appear, and then seeing the two people in front of him, Xu Le's heart slightly moved. He withdrew his hand from the cigarette box and carefully hid behind the sofa, hiding his face in the darkness.
…
…
Generally speaking, it was used to describe a spring breeze, or a little girl who missed her brother, or a little girl who only met three months ago. It was rarely used to describe two big men.
However, the two passengers who had boarded midway gave Xu Le, who was sitting on the sofa, a strong feeling. He even felt that if these two passengers were willing, they could carry the cold wind of winter in Linhai. Although there were only two people, the footsteps that seemed to trample on people's hearts were like thousands of soldiers and horses marching over.
Among the two people, the one who walked in front was about 30 years old. His facial features were ordinary, but there was a sense of grace in his calm eyes. His shoulders were straight, but because of the gray coat, there was a sense of steepness.
Under the guidance of the train attendant, this person did not enter his compartment, but went directly to the lounge. He walked so naturally that if he wanted to, everything in front of him should make way for him.
When this man walked past Bai Yulan, he did not even look at her.
Walking behind this man was a big man. He was 1.9 meters tall and was not far from the ceiling of the carriage. He had a shiny bald head, and a tattoo drilled out from his back, spreading along his neck to the back of his head. Under the dim light, it was impossible to see what the tattoo was, but it was probably a somewhat ferocious flower in full bloom.
He was supposed to be an extremely oppressive man, but behind the thirty-year-old man in front of him, he deliberately restrained his aura and tried to be as calm as possible. But when he followed the man through the corridor and passed by Bai Yulan, he inconspicuously turned his head to look at the delicate man.
Bai Yulan still had her head lowered, as if she did not feel anything, but her right foot that was pressing against the wall of the carriage slid down a few inches.
…
…
Xu Le had a natural instinct for danger. Although the two men in the car didn't show any malicious intent, he could feel that they were strong. He didn't know what kind of strength they were referring to, but seeing Bai Yulan, who was sleeping in the private room, quietly come to his side, it was enough to prove something.
The ordinary-looking man sat on the only empty sofa in the lounge, and the bald tattooed man naturally stood behind him.
The train slowly moved away from the capital of South Kezhou. The waiter saw that the distinguished guests in the luxurious compartment did not seem to be sleepy, so he resisted the tiredness and politely served them a few cups of tea and two plates of snacks.
The man was sitting on the sofa in a relaxed manner. He did not drink tea, but looked at the pack of cigarettes on the coffee table. Suddenly, he leaned over and picked it up, saying, "Good cigarettes, can I have one?"
"You're welcome."
The man's voice was not magical, but it was low and gentle, and somewhat pleasant to the ears. Xu Le said, and at the same time, handed over a lighter.
Nan Xiangmei had been sitting quietly on the sofa. She really did not want to spend the night in that luxurious compartment like a luxury hotel. Previously, when she saw that the passenger who got on the train went directly to the lounge, she thought that he was someone Xu Le knew, but now she knew that she was wrong. She could not help but look at Xu Le in confusion.
For some reason, Xu Le seemed to be able to understand the meaning of this beautiful girl, and he shook his head with a bitter smile.
At this time, the sofa in the lounge was full. A bald tattooed man with a height of 1.9 meters was standing behind the man like a bodyguard. The delicate secretary was resting with her eyes closed in the corridor next to the lounge. The scene was somewhat strange.
Nan Xiangmei also noticed this. She stood up, politely nodded to Xu Le, and was ready to go back to the room to rest.
The unknown man sitting on the sofa suddenly smiled and said, "Miss Nan Xiangmei, I specially came to see you, would you do me the honor of saying a few words?"
Nan Xiangmei looked at the man seriously and curiously. She had to admit that although this man was obviously over 30 years old, he was not handsome, but his temperament was really attractive. What made her unable to leave immediately was that this man actually called her name. Did he really come here to see her?
Xu Le, who was sitting in the corner, heard the words Miss Nan Xiangmei, and his heart couldn't help but tremble. Nan Xiangmei was a somewhat strange surname, but there were many people with this surname in the Federation. But the problem was that there were not many Miss Nan Xiangmei who could afford to live in a luxurious soft sleeper compartment. For Miss Nan Xiangmei to be specially visited by this man … there was only one possibility.
One of the seven major families in the Federation, the Nan Xiangmei family.
In the dim light, a self-deprecating smile appeared on Xu Le's face. Unexpectedly, he could meet the Miss of the Nan Xiangmei family on a casual trip. It seemed that he, an insignificant person, was really at odds with one of the seven major families in the Federation.
After a moment of daze, he was more interested in why the middle-aged man sitting on the sofa, who was obviously not an ordinary person, would choose to visit a beautiful girl who was so peaceful that no one could bear to disturb her in the middle of the night in a high-speed car.
"Excuse me, who are you?" Nan Xiangmei looked curiously at the man on the sofa, as if he was not worried about her safety at all.
"I was familiar with Nan Xiangshou in the past."
When Nan Xiangmei heard this, she felt relieved. The Nan Xiang family had a very strict upbringing. Apart from true friends, very few people would know their real names. Since the other party could call out her brother's real name, he shouldn't be lying.
"I have always heard that Miss Nan Xiangmei is a very outstanding woman." The man on the sofa looked at Nan Xiangmei gently. There was no superfluous emotion in his eyes, only endless admiration and pity, "Seeing you today, it is indeed so."
Upon hearing this, Nan Xiangmei couldn't help but blush. She wasn't a person who was easily embarrassed, but for some reason, the praise from the man on the sofa was like the verdict of a certain professor in the Federation, giving the listener endless confidence. Am I really an outstanding woman? Thinking of this, she could not help but feel a little shy.
Xu Le looked at the dark red color under Nan Xiangmei's white earlobes and could not help but be slightly startled.
"Douhai is not good enough for you." The man on the sofa suddenly said seriously, "This marriage is called off."
Hearing this sentence, Nan Xiangmei was shocked and immediately guessed the real identity of the man on the sofa.
Among the seven great families hidden in the shadows of the Federation, marriage was a very common thing. Once the parents of both sides decided, no one could stop it. Nan Xiangmei also could not escape this fate. However, at this moment, a strange man suddenly got on the train in the middle of the night, praised her with full of pity, and said that he wanted to call off the marriage.
Among the seven great families, probably only this person could ignore the authority of the elders and break the marriage between the two families with just a sentence.
Nan Xiangmei slowly stood up with a trace of disbelief and looked at the man on the sofa in a daze. In the hearts of the children of the aristocratic families, this man in front of her was already a legend, and deeply respected.
"Thank you."
Xu Le was an outsider. He did not know Nan Xiangmei, and it was impossible for him to know who the man on the sofa was. So, he did not understand this conversation at all. He only felt that Miss Nan Xiangmei, who was silent in the middle of the night, seemed to be happy from the bottom of her heart.
