Synopsis
After eight years abroad, Qiong Chengjian was urged to return to the old city by an urgent telegram. Everyone calls him the Second Young Master. He is smart, elegant, easy-going, has studied abroad, understands medicine, and accounts, and he also has a good face that makes anyone look at him. Such a person stands under the lamp of the old house, and even his smile seems to have been taught in decency. It rained all night on Changpingma Street. Half of the street was named Qiong, but the Qiong family no longer had the final say. Pharmaceutical factories are blocked, shipping lines are blocked, foreign companies withhold orders, and banks press for debts. The lights of the Chinese Concession are separated from each other. The old plaque of the Qiong family is still hanging on the door, but underneath it is full of bad debts. Bai Yanduo was called to his side that night. In name, he is a personal guard, but in fact, he is repaying an old grudge for the Bai family. He can block knives, shoot, and do the dirtiest errands for his master's family, and he hates these aloof young men the most. When he saw Qiong Chengjian for the first time, he just felt sick. Too clean, too good-looking, too good at smiling, too much like those young masters who wear human skin and use dignity as a knife. The more protruding that face is, the more it looks like a new layer of cold light falling on an old wound. * The night we first met. Bai Yanduo said coldly: "I'm not here to serve the second young master." Qiong Chengjian actually smiled: "I don't want you to serve me, you seem to want to put a knife on my neck at any time." No one expected that one day, Bai Yanduo would actually put a knife to his throat. Bai Yanduo originally thought that Qiong Chengjian was no different from other people. But this second young master seemed to have been born in an old house, but he decided to tear down the beams of the old house with his own hands. The Qiong family's mansion is full of rules, medicine money, bad debts, and overwhelming old rituals. But the second young master's small building is different. There were people chasing the green butterfly, and some peeking at the words on the blackboard. There were hot rice and hot soup brought by Liu's mother, and Qiong Chengjian came to teach Bai Yanduo how to write names and learn foreign languages. It was the first time Bai Yanduo held a pen, and his hand was stiffer than holding a knife. Qiong Chengjian felt like laughing: "What you wrote was a name, not a confession." Bai Yanduo: "This subordinate is very careful." "I can see it." Qiong Chengjian lowered his head and looked at the horizontal line on the paper. "With this stroke, if I were paper, I would be dead." Bai Yanduo: "..." Qiong Chengjian put the pen back into his hand: "Rewrite." * So everyone in the house knew that not only was the Second Young Master not forced to kneel in the courtyard, but he could also eat hot meals, listen to lectures, read and see butterflies. Outside is the Qiong family with strict rules, but inside it seems like there is another place where you can breathe. Qiong Chengjian saved the hospital, changed the medicine route, settled old accounts, opened charity funds, left medicine for the poor, and also left a hot meal for the people below. He did so many good things that the patients, the workers, and the people in the small building missed him. Even the old people at the dock who once looked down on him started calling him "Second Young Master." But in the old city, the more people he saved, the more people he blocked from making money. Foreign banks, compradors, Japanese merchants, gray lines at the wharf, ghosts in the Qiong family's old accounts, all pointed at him with open and covert arrows. Bai Yanduo originally thought that he was just a guard. Protect him from going out, protect him from checking accounts, protect him from rainy nights and gunpoints, and come back alive. But as he protected her, he could no longer look away. The face he hated at first became the direction he had to confirm whenever he turned around on a rainy night; the smile he once found disgusting later became the only thing in his blood that he dared not get dirty. It rains on the long street at night, and China rents two areas. The most difficult thing to demolish is not the old house, the account books, or the decaying property of three generations of the Qiong family. It is the shackles given to people by the times. A cold-blooded and short-sighted escort who doesn't want to be a bodyguard Double clean. Intention: Times imprison people, but love can rescue them.
Oh my god, I updated a chapter, why are there still clicks? Do you still want to read it? If there is, I will update it normally! [Crying] [crying] [crying] [crying]
It's so hard to guess. It's so hard to guess who will be tempted first [bad laugh]
On the one hand, there is the dependence and warmth in the instinct, and on the other hand, there is the wariness and uneasiness engraved in the bones. This contradictory feeling is so realistic. Bai's fatigue is only shown secretly in the corner where no one can see it. Robot Bai, I admire you [bad smile]
I haven't read such smooth writing in a long time. Reading it in one breath felt like watching a wet Republican movie. The words "Long Street" and "Night Rain" in the title obviously create a calm and almost peaceful atmosphere, but they are in contrast to the ups and downs of the plot in the text. There is actually a murder case at the beginning, which involves a lot of fog, especially at the end of each chapter. The author just throws the hook like this, which scratches my heart. Www. Oops, I really like the author's description of the environment and details, and there must be a lot of foreshadowing? And there is no useless information, which is why I found this book so exciting. Looking at various details, I always feel that although Qiong Chengjian and Bai Yanduo have very different backgrounds and personalities, and it seems that they can't even completely trust each other at the moment, they are the same kind of people, right? The kind who are dissatisfied with rigid restraint and will warm each other in the muddy times? Although the copy vaguely revealed the possibility of major misunderstandings and differences between the two in the future, it seems that they have just met and they even have a surprisingly tacit understanding. I wonder how they will get closer and closer in the future, dealing with this era and countless dirty things together, and become two warm-colored lights burning in the night rain. And although the two of them have shown extraordinary status in their respective fields, for example, Qiong Cheng's paper was in London, but he was specially urged to come back because he was the core figure who could "break" the Qiong family forward. Another example is that the docks call Bai Yanduo "Bai Ye", and he seems to know more about some things on the road than the second young master... I chose the Republic of China novel because I was afraid that the characters would be the same, but overall, every character in the background of this book is very vivid. The supporting characters, the eldest brother, the old man, and the little boy Ping An all have their own personalities, and they all seem to have some hidden pasts. I look forward to the unfolding in the future!
[Orange Candy] Mia It's rare to see articles from the Republic of China period anymore. I didn't expect this article to be like this, and surprisingly the writing was very good and the descriptions were very immersive. And why do I feel that there is a big sadistic pit waiting for me to jump into? There is no deep sadomasochistic love feeling between the two male protagonists. There is no hatred between the two of them. It feels like there are a lot of foreshadowings. Everyone hides secrets that they don't want to tell. I hope it won't become a knife that stabs their feelings later... I'm also very curious about why Mr. Bai became Shou's servant. Don't bully our Shou.
Listening to his words and seeing his actions, Bai finally began to trust that he was a different young master, right?
Ah, I thought you would update it today, forget it, just keep writing and feel free to use it.
Bai's reaction was so big. This case from eight years ago must have something to do with him [shy] But did he enter the introductory plot so quickly? Looking forward to the day the truth is discovered
Putting aside the plot, I am really good at describing the environment. Every paragraph has a sense of atmosphere.
The suspense theater is solid. Xiaobai is really a good and conscientious subordinate (so considerate)
I really like my wife's description of the environment. The visuals are so strong. The beginning of the chapter directly took me into the Republic of China period. The writing is really great. Several descriptions made me unable to help but read it twice. The dialogue between the protagonists is also very touching. The subtle tension between the two people made me unable to help but imagine the future development of the relationship hahaha [shy] These two people are also very nice themselves. Young Master Qiong is really gentle. Although he looks so sharp-tongued, in fact he is not only very nice to Guard Bai, but also very considerate to other servants. I love him very much. Bai Weiwei makes me feel cute and cute. He looks very cold at first, but he is actually very cute and cute. He only talks about doing errands, hahaha, but in fact, he is not ambiguous at all when doing things. He is very decisive and handsome! The two of them are really full of tension, and they match each other very well. I also like the dialogue between the young master and the old man in the middle. In just a few sentences, the male protagonist's working ability is fully demonstrated. When watching it, I will sigh that this man has a good mind, is so capable, and is so charming hehe. Later, when someone died, it became apparent that the White Guard was very capable, especially when he was able to analyze the murder scene with ease and proficiency, which was quite attractive. And there are a lot of foreshadowings in it that are very thought-provoking. The white hair on Bai Weiwei's forehead is just to reflect his last name, or does it have some other meaning? After taking a look at the text, could it be related to his kindness? [Glasses] I decided to collect it after reading the third chapter, so this is still a serial murder case? ? Rubbing hands in anticipation, my wife will update soon, just sit back and wait for the end [Spread flowers]
As soon as the murder case came out, the pace suddenly became tight. Qiong Chengjian was very calm, and he could tell at a glance that this was for him. Bai Yanduo stood up directly to support the situation, ordered the warehouse to be closed and detained people for questioning, quickly and ruthlessly, without any delay. The two of them worked very well together, there was no nonsense, there was a tacit understanding. There is no artificial manipulation, it is all about real details and rhythm, which makes it very comfortable to read.
Waiting for the update [Star Eyes] This is too tempting! ! !
There is a feeling that the plot line is spread out! Show me how nervous you are. Oh my god.
The plot is getting more and more interesting. The young master is really not at peace here. He was targeted as soon as he returned home.
Wow, blindly guessing that Bai Yanduo has a mysterious vest
Hahahahaha, why are you like a lump of wood? [Shy] Xiao Qiong is very considerate, there is no obvious distinction between master and servant at all, they are just two very good people [covering face and peeking]
Guard Bai: I want to guard the young master Young Master: You go and rest Guard Bai: I want to guard the young master I'm convinced it doesn't make sense hahahahahahahahaha
What a tense atmosphere, so well written
The emotions piled up more and more intensely, and finally I got angry.
I feel that everything is related to the truth eight years ago. Bai Yanduo is by no means a simple guard. "Master Bai", this title aroused my curiosity. What is Master Bai's identity? It sounds very powerful. What happened eight years ago to make our second young master so unhappy! Continue to follow the plot...
I really like the pull between them [picking my head]
It is indeed a human-like knife, with amazing physical strength. It is like a lump of wood. It can stand for a whole day [cover face and peek] hahahaha. However, this description makes the white monster manly [cover face and peek]. The little dome monster is considerate. These two people complement each other perfectly [prick-eared rabbit head] No wonder they can live together [shy]
The battery of White Guard is really full, and it is really a top-notch choice for Hyundai.
Xiaobai is like that robot program. It is set at the factory to guard the young master. Just remember to guard the young master. It's so funny. If you don't move,
It looks very plain, but it is really fascinating to read carefully. I feel that I am very good at describing the environment. Every paragraph is almost like a scene in a movie - the dim, foggy, humid and crisis-ridden feeling of the 1930s. When the protagonist appears, he really fits the environment very well. There is a trace of elegance and calmness in the chaos, and the sense of strangeness is intertwined very wonderfully. The feeling of the young master captures the essence. Bai Yanduo's character image and Qiong Chengjian's characters are two completely different types. The contrast between them is very strong. One seems to be playful and playful, while the other is a rigid wooden figure, full of dramatic conflicts. The two of them had already felt the sexual tension before it even started, and they could probably already imagine the future where one would be helpless and the other would go on a rampage. Bai Yanduo is Qiong Chengjian's sword. He really looks like a sword without a scabbard, but it would be fun for Qiong Chengjian to tease him sometimes. After all, the combination of man-machine and real person is really good. I look forward to a great development!
Bai is really stubborn, the young master can't stop him at all [covers face and laughs while crying]
In troubled times, you can't help yourself. The confrontation between the second young master and the old man made people panic. On one side are the dozens of lives waiting for help in the hospital, and on the other side are the livelihoods of thousands of people living under the Qiong family and relying on the Qiong family. No one, old or young, is willing to give up, but everyone has their own difficulties. The old man talked about the helplessness of the world, but the second young master directly exposed the cruelty of this helplessness. Leaving this mess in the hands of the second young master is not a preference, but the most helpless entrustment in troubled times. There's no such thing as the best of both worlds, it's just that someone has shouldered a heavier burden for you.
The two of them got to know each other better this time
This is the right to be independent. The old man let go.
