Veils of Beiping Novel Chapter 54
Zhishen was scolded by Peter Pang and stood there for a long time without moving.
He had indeed drank a few more glasses of wine. He was a little dizzy at first, but now he felt so comfortable all over his body. Inexplicably, he laughed and said to himself: "I feel better now." , what happened to me..."
"Sir, get in the car." The driver saw that he seemed drunk and came over to remind him.
Zhishen raised his head and looked at the windows upstairs. They were all lit, but he didn't know under which lamp Jane was...
Jane did not return to her room. She was still standing on the stairs, and the unfriendly conversation between Zhishen and Peter came intermittently. She resisted not to rush out and drive them all away. Waiting for it to get quiet outside... they finally left. She looked at the empty living room. The living room, which was not that big, was packed with guests just now. She had been working around it for almost a moment all night, thinking that after all the hard work these days, she finally saw some results, and she felt smug...
She walked down the stairs slowly.
Zhi Shen put down a paper bag before leaving. A square, earth-colored, fine-grained paper package, tied with hemp rope, and tied with a knot in the center - she stared at the knot.
Her third brother, who was extremely smart but was clumsy, could only learn to tie this kind of knot, and she taught him it repeatedly. The third brother learned how to tie this knot. Every time he mentioned it, he laughed and said that they were the two clumsiest people in the Cheng family. She was Xiao Shi who couldn't learn needlework, but she still taught her stupid brother to tie the knot... ...She watched, watched, and suddenly picked up the paper bag and threw it to the ground.
The paper package was torn, and a few colorful candies rolled out.
She was stunned.
For a moment, she kicked the candies hard. On the dark brown shiny floor, the colorful candies were flying everywhere.
Her heels were extremely high, and she almost fell down due to such intense movements.
"Sir!" Aunt Li came over to support her.
Jane pushed Aunt Li's hand away, took a deep breath, and said, "Clean up."
She seemed to have vented her temper and felt more relaxed. She simply sat on the stairs and watched Aunt Li quietly pack up the candies and put them all in a porcelain bowl.
"The cooking tonight was great, Aunt Li. Thank you for your hard work," Jane said.
Aunt Li was holding the porcelain bowl. When she heard Jane say this, she was blessed.
"Are you a bannerman?" Jane asked.
Aunt Li shook her head.
"You remind me of a person. He's an old man. Maybe he's just like him in craftsmanship." Jane said gently.
There was a trace of panic on Aunt Li's face immediately, but it was obvious that she wanted to hide it.
Suddenly the bell rang, and Aunt Li said, "Are there any guests coming so late?" She went to open the door.
Lao Li came in and announced that an officer was visiting from outside. He said that Miss Tao was seriously ill and wanted to invite Mr. Tao to come over.
When the young officer waiting in the foyer saw her, he stood at attention and saluted, saying that he had been ordered to come and ask Mr. Cheng to come.
Jane didn't ask any questions and didn't bother to change out of her dress, so she followed her into the car. Aunt Li chased her out and gave her a coat.
The car drove out of the gate of Cheng Mansion and drove very fast.
On the streets at night, only the whistling of the wind could be heard.
Jane asked: "How is Suixin doing? You were fine when you went out this morning. Why are you sick again now? Did you catch a cold outside, or did you eat something inappropriate?" Suixin was so lively that Tony Tao Shouldn’t those who are taken out be brought back with joy? How does he take care of his daughter...or is he just minding his own business?
Jane was anxious and a little anxious.
But the driver and officer sitting in front were silent, and no one answered her.
Jane waited for a while but still didn't get a reply, and doubts suddenly arose in her heart.
