Chapter 490 Su Zhiwei
"The hunter of the Golden Triangle..."
After reading the contents of the file, Yang Xiao, who was sitting in the passenger seat of the speeding car, thought, "It sounds like a tricky character."
"I seem to know why he surrendered to the 'emperor'." Chen Ling said slowly, "It is wishful thinking to want to eliminate the national boundary with one person's strength, but if there is an 'emperor' who is determined to unify the two worlds, it is estimated that Nie Yu will follow him without hesitation... Whether it is historical achievements or his own potential, Ying Fu is definitely qualified."
"An enemy with faith is the most terrifying. It seems that we should find Su Zhiwei as soon as possible and protect her."
Chen Ling stepped on the accelerator to the bottom, and as the yellow taxi flew out facing the rising sun, the outline of a city in the distance appeared in front of the two.
He glanced at the map navigation on the phone and said calmly,
"We are almost there."
About half an hour later, the car slowly stopped by the roadside.
Chen Ling and Yang Xiao got out of the car and looked around. This place is not a commercial core with tall buildings. What you see are basically low white-walled houses with a height of no more than three or four floors. Several streams cross the bridge, and a row of thin willows sway in the wind on the shore.
"Dr. Su's family doesn't seem to be very well off?" Yang Xiao asked in confusion, "Is this a rural area?"
"Rural area? Have you ever seen a rural area with a house price of 60,000 yuan per square meter?"
"??? How much?"
"This is the city center of Gusu, and it is also the best preserved old city." Chen Ling glanced at Su Zhiwei's address on the map, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly,
"It seems that Dr. Su's family is quite well-off..."
The next road is basically in the alleys, which is not suitable for driving, so the two walked according to the map. After passing through an old street scenic spot, they finally stopped in front of a house next to the scenic spot.
Looking at the three-meter-wide vermilion gate in front of him and the words "Su Mansion" on the gate, Yang Xiao's mouth opened unconsciously...
"Is this Dr. Su's home? Right next to the scenic spot? So big?"
Chen Ling confirmed the address again and again. It was this place. He walked straight to the door and knocked on the door with the ring on the door handle.
Dong Dong Dong——
After a short wait, the door slowly opened backwards. An old woman in her fifties or sixties stood behind the door, frowning and looking at the two people.
"Who are you?"
"Hello, we are Dr. Su's friends." Chen Ling glanced behind the door, "Is Dr. Su at home?"
The old woman hesitated for a moment, but still closed the door and said:
"Wait a minute."
Chen Ling and Yang Xiao stood outside the door and could not observe the scene inside through the crack of the door, but judging from the old woman's actions, Su Zhiwei was most likely at home, which made the two of them slightly relieved.
What they feared most was that they would find the address according to the information, but found that Su Zhiwei was not at home at all. Then they would be back to the same starting line as Nie Yu... Only by finding Su Zhiwei and taking her away in advance could they get rid of Nie Yu.
After the old woman left, Yang Xiao spoke uncertainly:
"What should we tell Dr. Su later?"
"Tell the truth."
"What if she doesn't believe it? She has such a big house and lives here. How can she give up everything and flee with us after hearing a few stories?"
Chen Ling thought for a moment, "Then it's not up to her... Even if it's kidnapping, I have to kidnap her."
Yang Xiao:...
"So, we now have another kidnapping business?"
"How can this be called kidnapping..."
Chen Ling was still trying to explain something, and the vermilion door was pushed open. A slender and neat figure was standing behind the door, and saw the surprise on the two people's faces.
"Yang Xiao? Director Chen?"
In the courtyard, Su Zhiwei was wearing a plain training suit, with long hair tied up high behind her. There was still sweat on her cheeks, as if she was still practicing martial arts just now...
"Dr. Su." Chen Ling's eyes were full of seriousness, "We need to talk."
Su Zhiwei glanced at the two of them, and nodded slightly without hesitation,
"... Come in first."
As the two entered the courtyard, Su Zhiwei closed the door,
The breeze blew through the empty courtyard, blowing the willow trees in the central lake of the courtyard, and a few fat red fish swam across the lake, ethereal as if nothing existed.
Chen Ling and Yang Xiao stood in the courtyard, stunned for a moment...
Compared with this place, Chu Muyun's Chinese-style house in Aurora City can only be regarded as a poor imitation...Not only is the area several times different, but the rockery and scenery are even more different. Here, you can see the carefully designed garden scene with just one step.
After the catastrophe, some things can never be restored to their original state even if we try hard to imitate them, just as modern times can never perfectly restore the cultural heritage of ancient times. The treasures formed by countless spiritual civilizations have also been buried bit by bit in the heavy history.
Su Zhiwei walked to the two of them and made a "please" gesture,
"The reception area is over here."
"Dr. Su, this house... is it yours?" Yang Xiao asked in surprise.
"It was handed down from our ancestors." Su Zhiwei smiled, "In the early years, our Su family still had some industries in Gusu, but the world has changed, and now it has long been in decline. There is only this house left in the family, which is considered a legacy.
With the salary I get in the laboratory, I can't afford such a location."
"Do you usually live alone?"
"There is also an aunt who is responsible for cleaning the house and cooking, but I basically decorate the flowers and plants in the yard myself." Su Zhiwei glanced at the water where the red fish were swimming, the rockery on the side, and the wind on the shore. The flying thin willow continued,
"I really like the atmosphere and style of Jiangnan. If no one takes care of it, it will be a waste of grass. It's a pity."
While talking, Su Zhiwei took the two of them to the tea room on the first floor.
This is a semi-open corridor. The three of them are sitting in the room. Next to them is the sliding door that opens to the courtyard. The gauze-like curtains sway gently in the wind, casting a light layer on the Jiangnan spring scenery in the courtyard. Fog has a hazy beauty.
Although Chen Ling and Yang Xiao didn't know much about architecture or landscape, they could still feel the elegance and sophistication here, which was basically consistent with their first impression of Su Zhiwei...
Su Zhiwei was wearing plain training clothes, sat down at the main seat, and skillfully began to wash cups and make tea for the two of them. She turned her back to the scenery in the courtyard, with a hint of indifferent and otherworldly temperament.
Scientific rationality and romantic sensibility are cleverly integrated in Su Zhiwei, giving people a very comfortable feeling in every gesture.
After a brief silence, Su Zhiwei took the initiative to speak:
"What's the matter with your sudden visit?"
