Chapter 503 Troubled
A erhu solo "Erquan Yingyue" was played. The melody was gentle and plain, but the sobbing sound carried an unspeakable sadness.

At night, after finishing his training, Zhang Wufeng walked out of Shi En’s underground palace alone and walked silently in the center of this underground trading market.

It was always so lively here day and night, which formed a sharp contrast with the tranquility in Zhang Wufeng's heart. The place where he chose to play the erhu was just a small corner where no one cared.

In such a small corner, I play a song casually, just to commemorate Niu Niu who left.

Deep down in his heart, Zhang Wufeng has always been unable to face Niu Niu's departure. Although Niu Niu has entered the Sky City, the pair of clear and bright eyes that stared at her at the beginning are still vivid in his mind.

Zhang Wufeng knew that this was just his own inner demon, because after reaching the Tianmai realm, which was the eighth level of the Green Ring, he would have to question himself about everything. It was like the so-called "karma" and "sin", which was a bond and a trouble.

In this state, no one can help him and he has to face it himself.

Sometimes, many things are like this, cause and effect are linked together, but in comparison, Zhang Wufeng did not regret what he did, because if he had to do it all over again, he might just leave Yang Xiaolan early instead of choosing to leave after reaching a certain level.

In fact, since there is no love, why force to be together. In order to keep her, in fact, I could have found her someone she wanted, so that both of us would not suffer.

……

Scene after scene of experience emerged, and finally, all the emotions turned into the sobbing sound of the erhu and dissipated in the wind.

Zhang Wufeng's state of mind is also constantly growing in this state. In fact, music is like something that sublimates the soul and has a charm that makes him intoxicated and persistent.

In the City in the Sky, he had been listening and practicing all the time, and this process was neither complicated nor simplified, it just continued boringly.

Time is running out. As long as he can sprint into the realm of original sin, he will be able to cross this boundary.

The songs played in a loop, forgetting about time and space. According to Old Liu, the people who carried the fate had all been calculated. However, everything still needed to wait for the natural development, and then they could be taken down.

All is ready except for the opportunity.

……

Around seven o'clock in the evening, it was already very dark. The colorful spotlights reaching into the sky at the entrance of Window of the World constantly highlighted the prosperity and bustle of the city of Mozhen at night!
After walking out of the subway passage, Fang Xiaoyi and Chen Lingling went straight to the ticket office! After receiving the tickets from the ticket seller, the two of them strode towards the venue of the food festival with a smile! At this time, Chen Lingling was a little dizzy because of hunger in order to lose weight!
This food festival was organized by the Shenzhen Food Association, and food experts from all over the country attended. The food in the venue covers all the provincial capitals! It can be said to be a modern Manchu-Han banquet!
There are a lot of people coming here to taste the delicious food tonight. Everyone holds a classification map designed by the organizer. Everyone can choose the food they want to taste according to the layout of the stalls on the map! Although this measure has played a certain role in diverting traffic, there are still too many people!
Fang Xiaoyi and Chen Lingling kept running around in the crowded venue, because faced with so many delicious foods, they really didn't know which one to eat! Chen Lingling, who was already too hungry to walk, begged: "Xiaoyi, please be kind, as long as it's food, it's fine! Don't leave!"

Seeing Chen Lingling's face turn blue, Fang Xiaoyi said helplessly, "Okay, let's go to this place!" Chen Lingling, who had perked up, looked up at the sign, which read, Authentic Qing'an Spicy Hotpot! Chen Lingling lost her temper in an instant, because she had never eaten spicy food since she was a child, fearing getting angry and getting acne! But when she thought of her stomach that had been protesting for a long time, she had no choice but to sacrifice her life to pay the price!
After waiting for about ten minutes, there was finally an empty seat. The excited Fang Xiaoyi hurriedly pulled the weak Chen Lingling over, but just as she was about to sit down, the stool next to her was suddenly taken by someone else! Frustrated, Fang Xiaoyi raised her head and was about to say that she was here first, but she was suddenly stunned! It turned out that there was a smiling man standing behind the man who sat down, Zhao Dongsong! And the girl who grabbed the seat was the eldest daughter of the Xue family, Xue Wenwen, who had dragged Zhao Dongsong to eat!

Zhao Dongsong looked at Fang Xiaoyi who was puzzled and said helplessly: "What a coincidence, you guys are here to eat too?" Fang Xiaoyi immediately smiled and replied: "Well, my boyfriend didn't come to pick me up today, so I dragged my colleague along! How come you like spicy hot pot too?"

Zhao Dongsong shook his head and pointed at Xue Wenwen who was ordering food! She was flipping through the menu intently, nodding happily from time to time! As long as she could eat, Chen Lingling hurriedly said, "Since we all know each other, let's sit together. I'm almost starving!"

After the four of them ordered some of their favorite dishes, Fang Xiaoyi smiled and said to Zhao Dongsong, "Is Miss Xue your girlfriend?" After hearing this, Zhao Dongsong hurriedly replied, "No, we're just good friends, and she's also an important client of mine this time!"

While asking this question, Fang Xiaoyi secretly glanced at Xue Wenwen from time to time. The latter did not react at all, but just flipped through the menu boredly. However, she did not feel relaxed in her heart, especially when Zhao Dongsong said that they were just good friends, she suddenly felt a sense of inexplicable loss in her heart.

At a table not far from Zhao Dongsong and the others, there were several young men in leather jackets, who kept looking at Fang Xiaoyi from time to time! One of the men with yellow hair frowned and whispered to his companions, "Hey, do you think the girl next to that boy looks a bit like Xue Wenwen, the eldest daughter of the Xue family?" The others looked carefully and replied, "She really does look a bit like him. Should we notify the boss?"

The yellow-haired young man touched his chin, snorted and replied: "If that's the case, let's not do it. The target this time is Hao Wei's girlfriend. Besides, who knows if there are any bodyguards from the Xue family around her! We should act according to the situation!"

Xue Wenwen felt a little uncomfortable when she was halfway through her meal, so she said she wanted to go home early. After saying hello to Xiaoyi and the others, Zhao Dongsong left with Xue Wenwen!
Chen Lingling, who was already very full, looked at her watch and suddenly shouted in surprise: "Oh, it's almost nine o'clock, I have to hurry back!"

Fang Xiaoyi, who was standing by, saw that she looked nervous and asked hurriedly, "What happened? You look so flustered! I haven't even eaten enough!"

Chen Lingling pouted and replied, "I suddenly remembered that my dad asked me to go back at nine o'clock to help him pack his luggage. He has to take a flight at 10 o'clock in the evening for a business trip. As you know, my mom and dad are divorced, and I usually help him pack these things! How about I go first? You continue eating!" Fang Xiaoyi sighed and was embarrassed to keep him, so he smiled and said, "Then go back quickly! I'll take a taxi back later."

Before leaving, Chen Lingling specifically reminded Fang Xiaoyi: "Remember, hail a car when you go out. Don't walk around the street alone. Be careful of being robbed!"

Fang Xiaoyi snorted and said hurriedly: "Go away, I'm not a child anymore! You don't need to worry about me!"

……

Five minutes ago, when Hao Wei saw Xue Zhongtang appear here, he shouted excitedly: "Why are you here? You followed me!!"

Xue Zhongtang snorted, shook his head and replied: "If I didn't really want to see Xiaoyi sad, I would never have saved you after hearing what you said!"

At this moment, Hao Wei remembered Xiaoyi who was still kidnapped by He Chong. He rushed over and grabbed Xue Zhongtang by the collar and asked, "Where is Xiaoyi? Where is she? Tell me now!!"

Xue Zhongtang closed his eyes and took a deep breath. He really didn't want to see the man who said such a decisive word, but Fang Xiaoyi believed him so much! After an inner struggle, Xue Zhongtang forced a bitter smile and replied: "I had rescued her when I came. She should be waiting for you in the car. You should go find her quickly and don't let her worry too much. As for what you said today, I only hope that you can make up for it with your actual actions in the future. Otherwise, I will definitely snatch her away from you without hesitation! Remember, I'm not kidding!" After that, he turned around and faced Hao Wei.

Hao Wei himself didn't know what mood he was in when he left the factory. He just felt as if there was a fishbone stuck deeply in his throat and he couldn't get it out no matter what he did!
Less than ten minutes after Hao Wei left, Luo Gang and his brothers rushed to the address provided by Xue Zhongtang! At this time, the factory was empty. In addition to Xue Zhongtang sitting on the ground to rest, there was a headless corpse!

Luo Gang hurried over and saw Xue Zhongtang with a gloomy face. He asked anxiously, "Master, are you okay? Where is He Chong, that bastard?"

Xue Zhongtang laughed embarrassedly and replied, "He ran away! You came here for nothing so late! I'll treat you to a midnight snack when I get back!"

Luo Gang exhaled, patted his head and laughed: "That old guy seems to be very lucky! The monk can escape the temple, but the monk can't escape. One day I will kill him with my own hands! Who knows, it may not take long! Haha!"

……

On the way home, Hao Wei held the steering wheel tightly with both hands and said nothing. Fang Xiaoyi, who was sitting in the passenger seat, kept looking at Hao Wei's expression from time to time. Although his face was calm, he always felt that something was wrong! Thinking of this, he hurriedly said: "Hao Wei, what's wrong with you? Are you unhappy to see me? Did those bad guys hurt you? Otherwise, I will take you to the hospital!"

Hao Wei smiled bitterly and replied in a very gentle tone: "It's okay, as long as you are safe. I just feel very tired and want to go back and rest early. Just have a good sleep."

Fang Xiaoyi replied in a manner that seemed to show great understanding: "I'm really worried this time. I'm afraid I'll never see you again. I'll go to your house tonight."

Hao Wei did not reply, but just silently looked at the road outside the windshield. At this time, a drizzle began to fall from the sky, and Hao Wei's mood was just like this unexpected rain, gloomy!

At midnight, looking at his girlfriend sleeping beside him with a peaceful look on her face, Hao Wei wanted to speak several times, but he forced himself to swallow the words. Perhaps he was waiting for Fang Xiaoyi to say it herself.

Fang Xiaoyi, who couldn't sleep the whole time, found that Hao Wei was really looking at her. She smiled sweetly from time to time. She put her hand on Hao Wei's face and said softly, "What's wrong with you? I felt something was wrong with you since you came back. Do you have something to tell me?"

The smile on Hao Wei's face was a little bitter. He struggled for a long time and asked in a tentative tone: "Did they hurt you after you were kidnapped?"

Fang Xiaoyi took a deep breath and replied calmly: "Although I don't know why the other party kidnapped me, fortunately they just tied me up and didn't do anything to me. I'm sorry to have made you worry!"

Hearing his girlfriend say this, Hao Wei's heart finally settled down. He hugged her in his arms and said excitedly: "You know, I'm really worried about you!"

Fang Xiaoyi's eyes were a little red and swollen at this time. After burying her head in Hao Wei's arms, she replied softly: "I am also worried about you. As long as I see you, everything will be fine!"

……

The next morning, Xue Zhongtang called Fang Xiaoyi and was completely relieved after making sure that she was okay. He was worried that this kidnapping incident would cast a shadow on Fang Xiaoyi. Fortunately, this girl was strong!

On the other side, after Hao Wei learned from Fang Xiaoyi how she was rescued, he felt grateful to Xue Zhongtang for the first time, but it was unpredictable how long this feeling would last! Maybe it would only last a few minutes!
Sitting in the office, Hao Wei decided to get married with Fang Xiaoyi as soon as possible, because he could tell from Xue Zhongtang's serious look that he was not joking! Just as he was choosing a date and a hotel for the wedding, he received another text message on his phone that was like a bolt from the blue!
