d at him, his tone indifferent yet harsh: "Move in with Zhang Qi"Ning Shu came back to her senses and said faintly, "It's none of your business."He quickly said to Zhang Qi over there, “Senior brother...In the young man's hand lay a copper coin, one that seemed to hold quite a bit of history. At first glance, it appeared rather ordinary, but the more I looked, the more I felt there was something more to it.
The man couldn't help but size up the young master.
Seeing him, his face was as beautiful as a peach blossom, with rosy lips and white teeth. Such a pretty face! It was unlike anything he had ever seen before. Especially those eyes, they seemed to captivate people.
"Can I take a closer look"
He reached out his hand and asked.
Ning Shu's lips were bitten white by him, she passed the thing over, her face was also a little pale.
The pawnbroker looked at the copper coin with a magnifying glass and thought it was unusual. However, his knowledge wasn't deep enough, so he returned it to the young man and told him to wait.
In a little while, a middle-aged man in a Zhongshan suit and long coat walked out. He also had a pair of narrow eyes. He took the thing from Ning Shu's hand and looked at it carefully.
Then fear crept in, and he raised his eyes, feigning nonchalance as he asked, "Sir, where did you obtain this"
Ning Shu lowered her eyes and said softly, “It was a gift.”
His heart was clutched by a large hand, his head felt a bit lightheaded and confused. He seemed to have no idea what he was doing.
The boss took the thing back and said, "This is too valuable for me to decide. Sir, why don't you wait here We'll have our boss come talk to you in detail."
Ning Shu was a little absent-minded and subconsciously nodded.
The boss winked at the clerk, signaling him to keep an eye on the man. Then he turned and went inside, presumably making a phone call to someone: "...Is that Captain Liu"
.....
The pawnbroker's eyes were fixed on the young man, pretending to sweep dust with a broom handle while his gaze darted back and forth over him.
He had never seen such a handsome man before. How could a man be so handsome, he just didn't understand.
Ning Shu lowered her head, her mind replaying the words the general had whispered in her ear: "...it was also an heirloom left to me by my mother..."
He clutched the copper coin tightly, his eyelashes trembling violently.
Then he suddenly stood up.
The fellow eyed him warily and asked, "Sir, where are you going Aren't you waiting"
Ning Shu raised her eyes and shook her head, saying, "I'm not selling."
"Hey buddy, you seem a bit anxious. I can't help but say: 'That thing is worth a fortune, probably the most valuable thing in all of Linhai. If you're short on cash, no matter what your problem is, this could save you.'"
This is a phrase that anyone who hears it will be moved by.
But Ning Shu, without much thought, refused: “Sorry, I don’t want to sell it.”
The fellow said, "He's gone."
"You idiot!" The boss's face turned red with anger. "I told you to keep him! If he runs away, we're all done for. Get out there and stop him!"
That copper coin, even if he had seen it in a book before, he couldn't tell its origins. And over a decade ago, it was given as a birthday present to his wife by that Mr. Fu for a hefty sum, which naturally meant it ended up in the hands of the young marshal.
I just don't understand how this copper coin, identical to the Jade Seal, ended up in the hands of this young man.
The boss, alerted to the situation, immediately called to report it.
....
After Ning Shu left the pawn shop, she didn't know where to go.
He walked with the crowd, passing by pedicabs racing along the roadside. There were also young newsboys shouting constantly: "Big news, big news, Ningjia merchants' business has been intercepted, they have offended a powerful figure, and now they are going to collapse..."
Ning Shu stopped her steps, only feeling as if something was calling to her in her ears.
To break out in a cold sweat in broad daylight.
He just kept holding that copper coin in his hand, unable to let go.
Ning Shu didn't regret leaving the pawn shop, he just felt a little crazy. He held the copper coin in his palm, struggling to breathe.
I don't know how long it had been.
The young man didn't know where he had gone, and when he came to his senses, he didn't know where he was. There were fewer people around him too.
Ning Shu looked at the roadside stall and ate a bowl of wonton.
The brain was a little confused and finally decided to go back to the Ning family first.
He had only taken a few steps when the sound of a car came from behind him, and it stopped beside him.
The car door opened.
The boots thudded on the ground, like a sudden blow to the young man's heart.
Take a look, Ning Shu.
The general stood before him, his deep blue eyes seeming rather cold. He shivered involuntarily, a prickle of goosebumps rising on his skin from the chill radiating from them.
"Get in the car."
Fu Shen looked at him and spoke.
The voice was low and emotionless.
Ning Shu walked up, the adjutant glanced at him, then turned his head away, and then drove calmly.
Fu Sinian didn't speak a word after getting on the car.
The young man felt a little uneasy and couldn't help but whisper, "How did the Young Marshal know I was here"
"What do you think"
The general lit a cigar, his expression rather cool. His icy blue eyes seemed unfathomable at this moment, and his handsome face was as cold and distant as when they first met.
"If I hadn't come, wouldn't Master Si have sold all of my mother's belongings"
His tone was laced with a hint of sarcasm.
The young man's face paled.
Since their kiss in Ning Jia's bedroom, Fu Shaoshuai has rarely smoked in front of him.
Ning Shu opened her mouth, knowing she couldn't argue. She only uttered a low, "…Sorry."
The scent of the cigar lingered in the car.
He couldn't help but cough softly, his eyes reddening slightly.
Fu Sinian paused for a moment, then rolled down the car window slightly, his expression calm: "Master Ning Si, aren't you curious how I knew"
His gaze lingered on the young man's face, and the other looked back at him. Whether it was from guilt or not, he lowered his eyes slightly, his eyelashes fluttering.
The general's eyes were somewhat dark.
A low voice entered the young man's ear, "Because that pawnshop is my family's."
Ning Shu opened her mouth slightly, as if she wanted to say something, but in the end, she said nothing.
His hand still gripped the copper coin, hot as if it had been burned, burning him so he could hardly hold on.
He couldn't help but think about it.
I felt so stupid back then. I was only thinking about saving Ning's family. Driven by some unseen force, I blindly took off the thing on my ankle and rushed to the pawn shop door.
Little did anyone know, he not only lost his mind but also went to the pawnshop under Fu Sian's name.
Is this not stupid
Ning Shu only felt a burning sensation on her face, and she was too embarrassed to face the military officer in front of her.
Yes.
Fu Shaoshuai gave him this copper coin, but even if he had a huge problem, he couldn't pawn the precious belongings of his loved one.
The youth's eyelashes trembled slightly.
He felt as if the copper coins in his hand weighed a thousand pounds, and Shao Shuai's words stung him like a knife. His lips trembled slightly, and he couldn't even bring himself to look up.
Ning Shu raised his eyes and met those ink-blue eyes, staring straight at him. The general held a cigar slightly in his mouth, his gaze lowered, unable to discern the expression in his eyes.
But the youth felt the coldness within it.
He shivered violently, his lips pressed into a thin line. Then, he averted his gaze slightly, raised his hand, and passed the object in his grasp forward.
General's eyes flickered, staring at the object in his hand with a veiled gaze. He said in a low, measured tone: "What do you mean, Fourth Master Ning"
Ning Shu opened her mouth and lowered her eyes, saying: "This thing is too valuable, it's better to return it to the Young Marshal."
Fu Sinian did not respond nor did he take the copper coins.
The young man couldn't help but feel a little uneasy. His eyelashes trembled slightly. He pressed his lips tightly together, handing over the object, but no one ever took it.
He couldn't help himself, he looked up.
But when he met the general's eyes, which seemed to hold a simmering anger, he stared straight back. His handsome face remained icy and aloof, but the veins on his cheek were faintly bulging, and those sapphire blue eyes pricked Ning Shu with pain.
Men are like icy guns, exuding a silent, smoky aura. Just one glance is enough to make your teeth chatter.
Ning Shu's heart skipped a beat.
His fingertips were turning white from the pressure, but he still spoke softly: “It was a gift from the Young Marshal back then. Now it's returned as promised.”
The general's dark blue eyes stared at him for a few seconds, then addressed the man sitting in the driver's seat: "Deputy Liu."
Liu Fuzhang had been by the young marshal's side for so many years that he could tell at a glance that the young marshal was furious.
He naturally knew what "Young Marshal" meant. He retracted his gaze, opened the car door and got out. Then he raised his hand to close the door.
He couldn't help but glance at the car, praying that Shao Shuai would have a shred of mercy.
Although the idiom "lian xiang xi yu" is a bit strange to use on a man.
But Young Master Ning Si, indeed has skin as white as jade. His face is like a peach blossom, very handsome. The most outstanding feature is his pair of captivating phoenix eyes, if he were to be born a woman, he would surely become the scourge of Linhai.
Ning Shu's body involuntarily stiffened the moment she heard the car door shut.
A chill of masculine presence drifted closer.
Fu Sinian reached out and grabbed him firmly. Then he pushed the young man against the back seat window, lifting his chin with a hand: "Young Master Ning Si, if you wanted to make me angry, then you've succeeded."
The general's eyes narrowed, a thin spark of anger in them.
The air around became oppressively and terrifyingly heavy.
Fu Shaoshuai would always maintain a cold and indifferent demeanor, no matter the circumstances. Even if he were to express his emotions while sitting in this position, it wouldn't be like today.
Ning Shu didn't speak, he pursed his lips.
It's understandable for the soldier to be angry, after all, he wants to pawn his opponent's mother's belongings.
But I didn't expect it.
The next moment, there came the cold click of the belt.e incident. 。Miss Li then realized that youth is not about giving up at school. 。She didn't even know Zheng Feng's real name, only that she had been humiliated that day and wanted to teach him a lesso...
