Chapter 60 Both are central air conditioners
The awkward silence continued until we got off the car. No one spoke along the way, only the car speeded up faster and faster.
Finally, when I was almost suffocating, the car stopped.
The driver opened the car door and let the two people in the back get out. The moment he breathed the fresh air, he felt that he was finally alive.
"I haven't been here for a long time. It feels like nothing has changed over the years. It's still the same." Ning Yan stood in front of the luxurious gate of the Tan family, with his hands in his pockets and his head tilted up. He said something that seemed to be a sigh about the passing of time, but in fact his tone was flat.
There is no trace of sadness about the past and the past, but instead a sense of regret that I have not gone bankrupt after all these years.
The driver glanced at him quietly without saying anything, but his eyes were full of surprise.
How do you manage to be so calm and at ease after embarrassing everyone else?
Didn't you feel the atmosphere in the car was weird at all?
Ning Yan didn't notice. After he finished speaking, Yu Chengbai didn't respond to his question. Instead, he turned his head to look at him curiously, "How did you get in when you came here last time?"
Yu Chengbai was about to go in, but when he heard these words, he paused and suddenly came to his senses.
He turned around and frowned: "When did you say?"
Fortunately, Ning Yan was a killer who had seen a lot of storms and soon realized that he had let the cat out of the bag.
He walked to Yu Chengbai calmly, with a nonchalant look, and looked around the house full of Chinese garden atmosphere.
As if he hadn't noticed Yu Chengbai's momentary abnormality, he chuckled, looked at him, and asked as a matter of course, "When Mr. Yu risked his life for his beloved, the whole of Continent M knew about it, right?"
It was such a big fuss that the whole continent of M knew about it, which was a bit exaggerated.
But for someone like Ning Yan who is very playful and always wants to join in the fun, it is not surprising to know this.
Yu Chengbai nodded slightly. Ning Yan's playful question didn't bother him at all. Instead, he answered the original question in a gentle voice, "Tan Zhui sent someone to invite me in."
Ning Yan was surprised: "Did you hide the people you brought with you?"
"No."
"Then he invited you in?"
"Let those who confess be treated leniently, and those who resist be treated harshly," Yu Chengbai said with a smile. "He probably thinks I'm easier to talk to."
It’s not that I think so, it’s just that you are easy to talk to, Ning Yan thought to himself.
"Then you let him go?" Ning Yan was curious. He never asked about what happened that day in detail, and didn't even ask about Yu Chengbai's injury.
As I thought about it, my eyes unconsciously glanced at his back.
The injury must have healed after so long. My hand has been healed for so long, so he must have healed too.
Ning Yan had one thought in his head, but another in his mouth: "I heard you were injured? Where is it? Are you healed?"
Yu Chengbai said, "It's just a minor injury, it's healed already."
Seeing that he really didn't look like anything was wrong, Ning Yan returned to the previous question and asked again: "Did you let him go? Did you fight? But I heard that you have a good relationship with Tan Zhui. Would you fight him for your wife's brother?"
Yu Chengbai frowned slightly and looked at him: "How do you know my wife has a younger brother?"
"..." Ning Yan's heart suddenly jumped to his throat, but his eyes and expression were still very intimidating.
He slowly raised an eyebrow, as if he thought there was something wrong with Yu Chengbai, and said, "Isn't this something everyone knows? And Lan Ze is my apprentice, don't you know that? The last time I went to your house, didn't he call me brother? Didn't you hear it?"
"Yes, now I remember, Aze did tell you that he found his sister that day."
Ning Yan didn't say anything else, as if he was speechless, and went straight into the Tan family mansion.
He had a feeling that Yu Chengbai was definitely suspecting him of trying to trick him.
Next time, just don’t talk too much. If you don’t know something, just pretend you don’t know it.
There were many guests visiting the Tan family today, and the journey was lively but also noisy.
However, some people are born with privileges. Yu Chengbai had just brought people to the Tan family to make trouble last time, and now he was led by the old housekeeper of the Tan family to walk on a quiet path. After going in and out several times, his vision instantly widened.
The old butler stopped in front of a waterside pavilion, turned around, and said respectfully, "Please rest here for a while, gentlemen. I will send someone to invite you when the banquet begins. If you need anything, just tell the servants at home."
"Thank you."
After Yu Chengbai finished speaking, he turned around and saw Ning Yan slumped down in the armchair. He looked up at the dusk and muttered unhappily, "I thought we could have dinner just by coming here."
Yu Chengbai walked behind him and asked him, "Are you hungry?"
"Well, I didn't eat anything on the way to see you."
Yu Chengbai didn't say anything else. Ning Yan got up to look at him and found that he was talking to the servants of the Tan family.
Ning Yan understood lip reading and could easily tell what he said.
He asked the servants to bring some food, specifically asking for steamed buns and pastries, and specifically told them not to eat food from Continent M.
Ning Yan was a little dazed. He and Yu Chengbai had met only a few times in Beijing. The earliest time was almost ten years ago in his gay bar. Yu Chengbai probably had forgotten about it.
In recent years, we have only had a meal together and had a drink together once. How could he know that I like to eat pasta?
Maybe a guess?
Or maybe it was just an accident and you wanted to try pasta?
No, he specifically reminded the servants that he didn't want the taste from Continent M.
In Yu Chengbai's eyes, he should be an authentic Continental M person. Even if he has been in Beijing for five years, his taste is unlikely to change much. Why would he specifically remind him not to eat Continental M food?
How did he know that he hated the food in Continent M?
"How do you know what I like to eat?" Ning Yan asked him directly after Yu Chengbai came back.
Yu Chengbai wasn't surprised either. He smiled and said, "You might have forgotten that we actually had dinner together once when we were in the capital."
Ning Yan did not forget that it was after he had tortured Yu Chengbai's mother and brother and thrown them out of the dungeon, and Yu Chengbai came to his house. Yu Chengbai wanted to trick him and check his whereabouts during that time.
Ning Yan teased him at first and drank a few glasses with him. The more they drank, the more shocked he became. Yu Li fell down after one glass, but Yu Chengbai was just the opposite. He could drink a thousand glasses without getting drunk. At the end of the drinking, Ning Yan saw double when he looked at him, but Yu Chengbai was still sitting upright and behaved calmly.
There was no other way, Ning Yan could only knock him out.
Thinking of this, Ning Yan carefully considered the details of that night, and finally asked him in shock: "We only had dinner once, and you remember it?"
“I can basically remember the tastes of the people around me.”
Oh, so this is the same as his younger brother Yu Li.
Yu Li is the same. Even if he has only talked to someone once, he can still clearly remember what the other person said and mentioned when they meet next time, and he will not get them confused at all.
Tsk, both of them are central air conditioning.
