Barrier of Light

The lady's true self, that little girl, huddled in the corner of the red door.

She curled up like a little hedgehog, hiding herself so deeply that no one could see her.

Gu Shen left the conference room and came to the red door.

He held out his hand.

The little girl raised her head, and she saw... the boy in front of her was wrapped in countless warm streams of light.

So she slowly, slowly stretched out her hand.

…

…

Gu Zhi walked around outside the auditorium and found nothing. When he returned to the concert hall, he saw the old guy who had just left before. He didn't know when he came back again, waiting for his wife's awakening with everyone... He frowned. He frowned and said nothing.

Zhou Jiren has always had this elusive character.

But the previous departure was indeed a bit suspicious.

"……woke up!"

Song Ci sensed a ray of mental fluctuations, and he was the first to react, his expression showing excitement.

Everyone in the auditorium held their breath and did not dare to disturb him.

The sleeping lady's face, perhaps due to her spiritual exile, was very pale and bloodless at the moment, but as a wisp of red flame retreated from her eyebrows.

The tip of her eyebrows twitched ever so slightly.

Then... slowly woke up.

"I……"

Lu Nanzhi gritted her teeth, feeling that the whole world was still spinning. When she opened her eyes, the bright lights of the concert hall shone directly into her eyes, which made her very uncomfortable. She narrowed her eyes and rubbed her eyebrows. After a long time, she asked with difficulty: " what happened……"

Can't remember anything clearly.

The memory seems to be broken, and this feeling is a bit like being drunk.

After Madam regained consciousness, the wisp of fire slowly returned to the center of Gu Shen's eyebrows, and he slowly woke up and turned around.

It was completely different from Lu Nanzhi's performance. After Gu Shen opened his eyes, there was a flash of sharp energy in his pupils, and they immediately converged. It was obvious that he was very energetic.

"It's a long story."

Chen San glanced at Zhao Xilai, and before anyone spoke, he said first, "It's a miracle that you can wake up. All of this is thanks to Gu Shen."

…

…

"So...so many things happened?"

Madam rubbed her forehead, trying to digest the drastic changes that took place in the auditorium tonight. When she woke up, everything was over, but this did not mean that the process was easy.

"Do you still have any memory of what happened before you fell asleep?" Chen San squatted down and asked with great concern.

"Can not remember."

Lu Nanzhi shook her head. Her voice was still a little haggard and weak: "The spiritual exile should have happened after 'hypnosis'. I have no memory at all."

"Understood." Chen San nodded and said calmly: "But after entering the main hall of the party, the seats have not changed. Mr. Zhao has always been the person closest to Madam... This is really a point that cannot be ignored."

Hearing this, Zhao Xilai sneered.

He understood Chen San's purpose in saying these words very well. Now the struggle for the Awakening Act is at the most critical moment. The balance has not yet completely tilted, and both sides have exhausted their cards. Now the slightest mistake may affect the outcome of the struggle.

If Huazhi was labeled with such a label.

Such huge pressure from public opinion will be unbearable for them.

"What do you want to say?" Zhao Xilai looked at Chen San expressionlessly. The older he got, the less patient he became. In some things, he preferred to be direct, simple and rough.

The junior member of the Nanwan faction who stood up slowly was not afraid of looking at her at all, and wrote lightly: "No offense intended, I just want to remind Madam... Hua Zhi is highly suspicious."

"Sorry... I wanted to interrupt."

Cui Zhongcheng, who had been silent, suddenly spoke.

"If you're going to attack each other in this way and throw dirty water... I have a problem."

He took off his monocle, breathed a sigh of relief, and said slowly: "Mr. Chen San, I would like to ask... where did Ye Ningqiu go after the reception?"

silence.

The free party was very crowded.

Socialites from all over the metropolitan area, as well as elites from all walks of life, have gathered here. Tonight's party is just like the name of the auditorium... it is very free, and no one will pay special attention to the "specific movements" of one of them.

Of course, Ye Ningqiu is an exception.

Even though this woman has always been used to keeping a low profile, she is still the core figure on the table for the South Bay faction.

Chen San was silent.

"I think you should be able to give an answer."

Cui Zhongcheng said slowly: "Maybe it's because of some inconvenient reason, or maybe it's because you just don't want to speak... I won't make any malicious speculations, just the results. At the beginning of the entrance ceremony in the auditorium, I I monitored the details of the dance through the deep sea, and after the auditorium suffered a power outage, Miss Ye disappeared."

"She didn't reappear... because of the panic caused by the power outage and the opening of the concert, everyone ignored it."

He said calmly: "If... everyone has fallen into 'hypnosis', then the person who has the most motive to act should be someone who fled the auditorium. No offense intended, I just want to remind Madam that in this matter... Compared with Huazhi, Nanwan is more suspicious."

Gu Shen narrowed his eyes.

Ye Ningqiu... he noticed the absence of this woman at the beginning of the concert.

This woman left the meeting, will there be a follow-up...

He looked at the teacher.

Zhou Jiren obviously sensed Gu Shen's gaze, but he looked away for a second without any intention of communicating.

Gu Shen could only sigh softly in his heart.

The teacher still looked calm, holding a cigar in his mouth but not lighting it. He stood in the crowd with his arms folded, watching the two groups of people fighting with a smile.

indeed.

Is there anything more interesting, rare, and important than watching two federal MPs throwing dirt at each other?

"alright……"

Lu Nanzhi stopped the farce and said in a low voice: "I want to leave the auditorium... Could you please stop fighting? Without evidence, if we fight for ten thousand years, will there be any results?"

She refused the others' offer of help, put her hand on Song Ci's shoulder, and stood up.

She walked slowly for two steps until she was about to leave the auditorium. Madam suddenly turned back. She looked at Gu Shen with a gentle expression and asked: "Mr. Gu... can you please come with me?"

Madam invites herself to accompany her...

Gu Shen knew that what followed would be more than just a simple thank you.

The opening of the red door in her mind... Madam must have noticed it when she woke up. It must be said that her acting skills were really superb. Her face was full of weakness, and she wanted to leave the auditorium on the excuse of being unwell.

In fact, the ego is not damaged.

At best, her mental strength was a little uncomfortable at first... She should have fully recovered by now.

The opening of the red door could not be hidden from Lu Nanzhi.

Gu Shen stood up.

"Then... it's better to be respectful than to obey."
