Chapter 48 Dark Fragrance 1

When the lotus leaves in Yuecheng Lake turned into the remnants of the pond, the osmanthus in the mountain began to fragrance.

In Yi Anju, Bai Shu'an sat alone on the long stone stool in the garden and looked up. The moon was in the sky and the stars were bright. This scene seemed to have been familiar. The evening breeze brushed with the fragrance of flowers, and the silk was sweet. The fragments in the memory appeared from time to time, floating up and went with the weather.

I remember that for two months, after she came back from Yuncheng, she suffered in Professor Lian's business administration class every day, or spent time in the library of Wu Yue University, running around on the way to the library, or listening to her painstaking teachings in Aunt Yun's office.

Fortunately, Ziyu and Qinglian are also learning in school. Sometimes they meet each other in the library and sit together to chat, which is also a little fun. Recently, when she finally woke up from the difference between macroeconomics and microeconomics, she suddenly found that the Mid-Autumn Festival was approaching.

Since she changed her role and planned to devote herself to another life path, in addition to Ying Liu's complaints about her, Aunt Man, as usual, everything is cold and warm, and Ruo Min is just right to maintain a quiet distance.

The ultimate reason why Ying Liu showed abnormal hatred and resentment against her was that she ran away from home that day and did not reveal any eyebrows to Ying Liu, a close friend of her boudoir, which made Ying Liu very sad.

Especially in the end, she came back full of gossip, which made Ying Liu unbearable.

As soon as she returned to Yuecheng to see Yingliu that day, she heard Yingliu swear mercilessly: "You heartless, you still know how to come back. I don't know how anxious our brothers and sisters are after knowing that you suddenly disappeared. A group of people almost turned over the whole Yuecheng... You want Please leave a note and put it in a conspicuous place. If Brother Ruomin hadn't been careful and found it under the album shelf on your bedside table, I don't know if we can stand here normally today..."

Bai Shu'an had to apologize with a shy face: "Okay, Miss Jiang, don't I have anything to do? Where did you hurt? Is it the heart or the lungs? Can I think of a way to suppress your shock?"

Ying Liu shook off Bai Shu'an's arm aggressively, with a serious expression as usual: "I went to see you that night, but I met Brother Ruomin outside the courtyard. She said that you were asleep and needed a good rest, so I didn't go in. Who would have thought you to run away from home...

After knowing that you disappeared, a group of us looked for a day in Yuecheng. Brother Ruomin sat in your room alone for a day and a night. The next day when I saw him, I was really shocked. His face was pale and decadent, as if he was much older all of a sudden. I have been with her for so many years, and I know that he pays the most attention to his image, but this time... After he gave me the note you left, he hurried to Yuncheng that day... Tell me honestly, is there something happened between you?"

Bai Shu felt at ease. At this time, when she learned such news, she didn't know whether she was happy or worried, so she had to prevaricate Yingliu: "Don't guess, Ruo Min is just worried about me. She has always taken care of me like her own sister..."

Seeing that Bai Shu'an was a little hesitant to say, Ying Liu interrupted her suspiciously: "Ok, if you don't want to say it, I'm not reluctant. It's just that you suddenly came back with Luo Hanfeng. Isn't it too much that you don't pay attention to my best friend?

Ying Liu tilted his head, thought about it, and suddenly realized, "No wonder when I was remembering Jiangnan that day, I found that Luo Hanfeng's eyes at you were very unusual. He was really interested in you."

"You have always been inaccurate when you look at people."

"But if they are so rich, will you be under a lot of pressure?"

"Yes, there is a lot of pressure, so I have to try to learn more knowledge now and try to reduce the gap with him as much as possible."

"Do you think that with your IQ, these two months can make up for the waste of so many years of study?"

......

"Wow, it hurts!" Therefore, this first grudge was over after a painless vent.

The second reason why Ying Liu resented her was that the performance was basically abandoned because Bai Shu studied in school every day and improved every day.

Aunt Man had to put all the performances that originally belonged to Bai Shu'an under the name of Ying Liu. Although Ying Liu is the lead singer of the song team, she also dances very well.

Although this has improved her status in the song and dance troupe, her body is not iron after all. She performs five times a week in a row, which makes the whole person trance, and naturally there are more complaints.

Therefore, every once in a while, Ying Liu would take advantage of Bai Shu to sleep comfortably, or read a good book leisurely, suddenly come out, disturb her dream, and overturn her book as a compensation for her inner imbalance.

Gradually, Bai Shu'an figured out her routine, and she could only escape from the clutches.

For example, tonight's night is as cool as water, and the moon in the sky hangs dimly on the treetops, which is very poetic and picturesque. Tonight is a rare rest day in Yingliu this week. In order to avoid her from attacking again, Bai Shu'an escaped from the room early without a book, and sat in a daze in a daze in the courtyard.

"A person sitting on a stone stool for so long, be careful not to catch a cold!" I didn't expect that it was not Ying Liu, but Ruomin this time.

He walked through the osmanthus tree behind the stone bench and touched the branches. The pale yellow stamens fell one after another, gently sprinkled on the top of her hair.

"Brother Ruomin, how do you know I'm here?"

"I just went to Aunt Man's place. She said you were in the yard, and I guessed it." Ruo Min's slender fingers brushed her long hair, turned along the stone stool to sit with her, and slowly spread out her palms. Many delicate flowers in the palm of her hand glowed golden in the moonlight.

Bai Shu'an smiled and took the flower in his palm and put it on the tip of his nose and smelled deeply: "It smells so good. I didn't expect this year's osmanthus to have bloom so well."

"Yes, it's the Mid-Autumn Festival in one week. Isn't it the best time for the fragrance of osmanthus? You sit alone under the osmanthus tree, but you don't even pay attention to its blooming appearance. What on earth are you thinking about?"

The moonlight is like water, flowing down on her quiet face, as cool as the cloud river at night. The clear face became red because it was touched by the heart. He hurriedly turned his head and said against the round of bright moon, "Appreciating the moon."

Du Ruomin's tone is still as low as the gentle wind and drizzle: "Shu'an, is Luo Hanfeng good to you?"

The topic turned too fast, and her face turned pale for a moment, but on such a quiet and dark night, he naturally couldn't see it clearly.

I only heard her calm voice as usual: "Okay, good! He often calls me to report his itinerary. Sometimes when I go out to do business and come home late, even if it's midnight, I don't forget to tell me that I'm safe. It wakes me up and makes Aunt Man sleep badly. I always say that he doesn't listen.

Luo Hanfeng's phone call did come diligently, but it seemed that it was just to show Aunt Man. It was often Bai Shu'an who casually talked about a topic on the phone, but he said the weather, food and news of Yuncheng indifferently. Sometimes he really had nothing to say, and endlessly praised the pleasant scenery of Luoyuan, even He could clearly report a few flowers in the flower shed, which really impressed Bai Shu'an.

Du Ruomin listened to her without saying a word and did not respond for a long time.

Bai Shu'an looked at him sideways with a little difficulty. Although the face shrouded in the moonlight in front of her was deserted and lacked the warmth of the past, it was still noble and elegant.

He raised his hand and slowly dusted the stamens of the cuffs, as if he had just suppressed his great emotions and let out a slightly hoarse voice, "That's good."

She thought that they would keep silent awkwardly, but she didn't expect his difficult words to rise again. "If you need it, no matter what happens in the future, you can still tell me as before... Don't worry, I just want to share your worries, as in the past..."

"Hmm." A person who once branded a mark in her heart, Bai Shu'an never thought that he would be erased so easily, but I don't know when this brand has been placed in a safe and secret place, without disturbance or dispute. This peaceful state is exactly what she needs at this moment.

"Thank you, Brother Ruomin!"

She thought to herself, "If you can, I hope you can sit next to me like this, accompany me to enjoy the moon, look at the stars, smell the flowers, and recall the past..."

Indeed, for her, their past can only be recalled after all!

*****

Two months passed in a hurry. Since she was attacked by an angry crowd outside Ziyun Apartment that day, Luo Hanfeng sent Qiangui to send her back to Yuecheng the next day. Since then, she has never seen him again.

Although the two cities are separated, she didn't leave anything that she should know about Yuncheng.

Aunt Man's good intentions, Bai Shu'an clearly understands that every morning at breakfast time, she will see a "Jingjiang Evening News" neatly placed on the table in the living room.

On July 7, the sixth day she left Yuncheng, the front page headline of Jingjiang Evening News, "Chunhua Theatre reconstruction project will become a blockbuster of Yuncheng cultural work in xx years."

The report pointed out that Zhang Jinyan, the mayor of Yuncheng City, proposed to carry forward national culture and integrate national culture with international culture at the latest cultural work conference. This important task is imminent.

In addition to the senior officials of the municipal government, the participants also have the heads of several major consortia in Yuncheng.

Luo Tianqi, chairman of Luo's Group, the richest man in Yuncheng, proposed at the meeting that an additional 20 million yuan would be invested to transform the Chunhua Theater into the leading grand theater in China. It will absorb the European architectural style and elaborately create a unique concert hall and opera house. A cultural resort with advanced stage facilities.

After the announcement of this project, various bad reports of the original public opinion against the Rocks Group disappeared in a few days. The media began to praise the merits again, praising Luo Tianqi's broad mind, praising the great achievements of the Luo's Group, and they never mentioned the ** vocabulary of Luo Shao's fiancee.

Half a month later, a piece of news on the economic page of Jingjiang Evening News, which occupied a large page, once again shocked Bai Shu.

The news headline is eye-catching: "After a month, Luo Shao and the mayor's daughter are on the same stage again."

That was at the launching ceremony of the renovation project of Chunhua Theatre. It turned out that Zhang Shiyao was born in architecture and returned from studying in Europe, which can be said to be talented. In this Chunhua's reconstruction project, she was the project director and chief designer, and Luo Hanfeng, as the representative of the investor, participated in the supervision. The two attended the launch ceremony of the project dressed up.

Although at the scene of the meeting, the two behaved and were polite, and the media did not speculate about the relationship between the two for the first time.

But as soon as Bai Shu'an saw the group photo in the newspaper, it was indeed a jade tree Linfeng and a closed moon shy flower. She was depressed for a long time and refused to answer Luo Hanfeng's phone call for a whole week.

A few days later, an explosive news swept in again.

Luo's Group officially announced that Luo Hanfeng, the successor of Luo's Group and managing director of the Group, will marry his fiancee Bai Shu'an during the Mid-Autumn Festival.

This news undoubtedly confirms the authenticity of Luo Hanfeng's gossip fiancee more than a month ago, but after a major reversal, Yuncheng Media did not adopt the original frontal bombardment strategy.

It's about twists and turns to test what kind of past there is between this mysterious fiancee and Luo Shao. What means did she use to make Luo Tianqi admit her identity...

Since seeing this news, Bai Shu'an's mood has begun to feel uneasy.

Obviously, the planning of Luo's Group for more than a month has paved the way for this marriage. In just more than a month, it can change the trend of public opinion from degrading to praise, and let Yuncheng people accept this Luo Shao's fiancee who fell from the sky. Luo's Group has paid a lot of price!

However, what was the reason why Luo Tianqi suddenly changed his attitude and miraculously accepted her? Was it because of Luo Hanfeng, or... She inexplicably felt that an invisible pressure was slowly coming, covering her heart. The days were still passing day by day, but she felt that the days were like years!
