Veils of Beiping Novel Chapter 23

"There's another power outage," the footman muttered.

The sky was overcast, and when the lights were turned off, the room was dark.

Jane walked out of the hall, and the waiter guided her to the car waiting for her.

She lowered her head and got into the car.

The car curtains are closed. She told the driver to go to her residence.

The driveway of Tu Mansion was circular, and the car she was riding in drove in the other direction, making room for the cars behind her.

"Is Captain Tu back?" Jane asked. But she thought that maybe this wasn't Tu Huyi, and Tu Huyi probably wasn't of such grandeur. Maybe Peter Pang. And she had seen Peter Pang's posture in the hospital. But maybe, it wasn't Peter Pang either... When this thought came to her mind, she seemed to be stabbed in the heart by something.

"Oh, that's Commander Tao's garrison." The driver answered after a while, perhaps because he was undecided whether to reveal the news to an ordinary nurse. At this time, the car drove out of the gate of Tu Mansion, and the guards who had just arrived could be seen starting to guard from the gate.

Jane leaned on the car seat, a thin layer of sweat suddenly forming on her forehead.

Tony Tao stood in the living room, took off his gloves and threw them to Lu Sihai.

Qiu Wei and Su Meizhen, who had seen him coming from above, came downstairs together. Su Meizhen smiled brightly, while Qiu Wei was so shocked that she broke into a cold sweat.

After greeting Tony Tao with a smile, Qiu Wei asked, "Commander Tao, why are you back so soon? I thought you would arrive the day after tomorrow." As she said this, she looked behind Tony Tao and saw Lu Sihai, who was holding Tony Tao's clothes, and smiled. He said, "You too, Xiaosi, if you didn't call back earlier."

"How dare I expose the commander's whereabouts at will?" Lu Sihai said.

"Peter called me several telegrams in succession." Tony Tao said, taking off his cloak, revealing the dark gray straight military uniform underneath. He did not tell Qiu Wei that Peter Pang not only telegraphed to Xuzhou, but also took a special detour to his headquarters while the troops were leaving. That Peter Pang has leopard eyes and a leopard temperament, but regardless of whether he is too busy to go back to Shanghai, he is almost forced to come back to see his daughter at gunpoint. He asked: "Where is my daughter?"

"In her room. It's much better." Su Meizhen said first.

Tony Tao nodded to Su Meizhen and went to Suixin's room upstairs. Su Meizhen was sensible and did not follow her, but waited downstairs while Qiu Wei followed Tony Tao upstairs. After seeing Sui Xin, Tony Tao did not ask about Sui Xin's condition, and Qiu Wei remained silent. She was familiar with Tony Tao's temper and didn't like people to talk too much.

Suixin looked very calm when he saw his father. Although she hasn't seen her father for a long time. Sitting on the bed quietly, she answered whatever her father asked. The voice is thin.

Tony Tao sat on the edge of the bed, very close to his daughter.

Qiu Wei looked at the father and daughter who had fallen silent, and said with a smile: "Didn't I miss my dad a long time ago? Why don't you talk to dad more now?"

Suixin pouted. Although Tony Tao's face was still tense, his heart felt warm because of Qiu Wei's words.

He looked at his daughter and asked: "How many days can daddy stay here when he comes back this time? How about going home with daddy?"

Suixin glanced at her father quickly and said neither yes nor no.

After hearing this, Qiu Wei said: "Uncle, my daughter is better. It's better not to let her change places... The old lady will be here in a few days. It's inappropriate to let the old lady see her sick again and feel distressed again. That would be inappropriate." . Let Nannan rest here for a few days."

Whenever she was anxious, she would call Uncle Tony Tao.
