The sky is getting darker, and the brilliance of dusk shines on the ground, like a red veil. The streets are lined with trees, swaying flowers and grass, and traffic flows like water, making it full of life.
Imprinted in Xia Xinyan's eyes, she felt that everything in front of her was like a dream... She couldn't tell what was true and what was false? Her heart was hanging in the air, and she couldn't get up in the afternoon.
Xiao Hong saw that her expression was wrong and asked quickly, "Yan'er, are you okay?"
Xia Xinyan lowered her head and shook her head, hearing the words Lan Yuze once said, 'Don't let grandma go out in this life'... She could understand how ordinary people could bear the death of both her parents overnight.
of?
"Let's go." Xia Xinyan said lightly. It took a lot of strength to endure the throbbing in her heart. Grandma... this life has been full of twists and turns. From birth to death, she never had a peaceful life.
Xiao Hong took Xia Xinyan to an ordinary Chinese restaurant and ordered ordinary home-cooked dishes.
"Try it, every time I come to the United States, I have to come here to eat." Xiao Hong picked up the shredded meat and put it in her bowl, with an infinite smile in her eyes. This moment was Xiao Hong's time, her time with her daughter.
In tender moments, her heart was filled with excitement. She longed for time to go slower, slower...
Xia Xinyan smiled, took the rice mixed with white rice, and put it into her mouth. It was very fragrant, the shredded meat was tender, and the rice was fragrant. It really had the familiar taste of her hometown.
"Thanks."
Xiao Hong's face stiffened after hearing this. She didn't like hearing such words from Xia Xinyan's mouth. She imagined that Xia Xinyan would say to her in a willful tone, I want to eat this, I want to eat that! No money
I yelled at her loudly when I was wronged, and I could hide in her arms and cry loudly when I was wronged...
She also knew that all this was just a thought... Her throat was a little choked, her eyes were misty, and she couldn't lose her composure. She quickly swallowed a mouthful of food, but she choked on the spicy chili and burst into tears.
"Are you okay?" Xia Xinyan handed her a tissue and patted her back.
Tears rolled down her eyes... She just felt uncomfortable in her heart, accumulating in her chest, and wanted to pour them all out. Her throat was also sore and raw.
The boss came over to greet them. Xiao Hong tried her best to hide her tears, wiped her face, smiled at them, and continued eating.
"If you can't eat chili peppers, then don't eat them." Xia Xinyan said softly, and put all the chili peppers in her bowl into her own bowl. It was just a natural action that made Xiao Hong swallow her tears.
Eye-catching at once!
Suddenly, rows of policemen were walking through the crowd on the street, looking around, holding a piece of paper in their hands. Xiao Hong could vaguely see that it was a picture of a person, and he compared it with each person's face.
Looking for someone? Are they looking for someone?
It was not surprising at the moment that Xu, a powerful person from some family, sent the police to look for him when he disappeared. With such arrogance, he was definitely looking for a murderer?
Outside the Lan family villa, Xia Xinyan looked at Xiao Hong's car gradually driving away. The taillights of the car were flashing in the night, but the dazzling red was imprinted on her heart, which felt a little warm... 'Goodbye' she said
I said silently in my heart.
As soon as she walked into the Lan family's hall, she felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere. Each servant's face was tense, and his eyes were fixed on a certain area, not daring to look around, and doing what they were doing seriously. Even after she came in
None were found.
The empty villa, the well-proportioned pillars, and the huge crystal chandelier, there is an invisible oppression coming towards you!
Suddenly, Lan Yuze's violent roar came from downstairs. It was in English. She couldn't quite understand it, but she vaguely knew that he was swearing!
She went upstairs to the baby's room. Lan Yuze's matter had nothing to do with her. She missed the baby after not seeing her for an afternoon. To go to the baby's room, she had to pass Lan Yuze's room. The door was ajar, and she glanced at it unintentionally.
.
At that glance, I was stunned... There was no light in the room, and I could only see three people inside through the moonlight. Lan Yuze stood by the window, his tall body casting a shadow, and his clasping hands in the night,
Holding a cigarette butt, it flickers on and off, and the back is stiff, interpreting the owner's anger.
The other two people stood beside him, bowing their heads and bending over. They were too scared to look up at him. One of them was wearing a police uniform...
Xia Xinyan was stunned for a moment, remembering that at the Dark Night Gate, Lei Yuhang, the dignified police chief, had to surrender at his feet. At that time, he used his power to take grandma away... Seeing such a scene,
A feeling of displeasure arose in my heart.
She opened the door and entered, turned on the light, and instantly the room became bright, "What's wrong?"
Suddenly the air in the room stopped flowing! The two of them laughed with relief when they saw Xia Xinyan, as if it saved their lives. They said something to Lan Yuze, then went out and walked to
She bowed in front of her and muttered something.
Xia Xinyan was so shocked that she also bowed to them, but she didn't understand what she was doing.
After they were all gone, Xia Xinyan saw Lan Yuze staring at her closely, without even blinking his eyelashes, with a complicated expression. The cigarette butt had burned to the end and rubbed against his skin, but he did not move. Xia Xinyan wrinkled
Frowning, he turned and walked towards the door.
As soon as her body moved, she was hugged tightly by him. The force was so strong that it felt like he was going to crush her!
"You..." As soon as his lips parted, they were already restrained by him.
Her mouth was filled with the smell of his nicotine smoke, which was a little choking. Their lips and tongues connected, and his tongue was entwined like a snake... She was turned around and faced him. She pushed him with all her strength, but was hugged by him.
Getting tighter and tighter!
"Let me go." Her voice was drowned between her lips and teeth.
After a while...she felt her lips were numb and her body became weaker and weaker. Lan Yuze let go and hugged her tightly, "Don't leave."
His voice was hoarse and sexy, a little trembling. He pressed against her ear. Although it was very low, it hit her chest like a strong force. There was still his taste on her lips. She pressed against his chest and listened to his rush.
heartbeat!
He...is afraid? What is he afraid of?
Under the light, I saw two people embracing each other on the floor. The man was tall and the woman was delicate. They blended in so well.
Xia Xinyan's cheeks felt a little hot... The ice in her heart seemed to be slowly melting... No, it couldn't. I thought of grandma...
She suddenly pushed him away, raised her head, and said in a cold voice, "My son, where can I go?"
That sweet fragrance passed through his nose, and his arms felt cold, and he realized that she had left... Could it be that the only thing that could keep her in this villa was the wind? In the afternoon, he came back from the company and disappeared.
Xia Xinyan, this place is unfamiliar to her, where can she go?
He went to his grandma's cemetery, but saw no one there. When the night came, she still didn't come back, and Lan Yuze became scared...
He was afraid that he would not be able to see her, that she would leave his world, and that something unexpected would happen to her... He used all his strength and people from the police station to search the streets, but he still found her.
No. He checked all the exit records, but there was no news about her.
He didn't know how his whole body was trembling at that moment when he learned that there was no news about Xia Xinyan?
Until she turned on the light and stood in front of him, she asked in a puzzled tone, 'What's wrong'?
But he didn't know how to react. She stood in front of him like this, but for an afternoon, it made him feel as if he had been in another world. He had to hold her tightly to feel her true presence. She didn't know that
For a moment, he endured how hard it was. How much he wanted to beg her not to leave him...
He went to the baby's room. Xia Xinyan was lying beside the bed. Feng'er was sleeping soundly, her little face was rosy, and one look at her could make people enchanted.
He knew that Xia Xinyan was not asleep. He wanted to ask her where she was. But he couldn't ask her. He was afraid of making their current relationship even worse!
Sitting on the edge of the bed, looking at the two of them, he already felt happy. Behind the scenes, a corner of a white note appeared in Xia Xinyan's pocket. He was shocked when he saw it!
'Emperor'... that was a check, he knew it, and it was a royal check. Where did she go today? Did she go to see Huang Xiaoran? He gave her money! A wave of anger quickly rushed through his body, why did she live in
Do you want to accept other people's money under his roof?
Could it be...do you really want to leave me?
Lan Yuze raised his fingers, turned over her body, quickly pulled out the check, and asked sharply, "Did he give you money?"
Xia Xinyan knew that Lan Yuze had come in and sat next to her bed, but she didn't want to... She looked at the check and was stunned. She really didn't know what the money was!
"What?"
"Stop pretending to me! You disappeared all afternoon today just to see Huang Xiaoran, right? Did he give you money?" Lan Yuze's cheeks plumped up and his eyes were filled with anger. He saw a few big eyes above him.
The word thirty million came out, and he smiled sarcastically, "Humph! That's so generous! Thirty million?"
Only then did Xia Xinyan realize. She vaguely remembered that when she was in the car, Xiao Hong was in the driver's seat and opened the door for her. During the physical contact, she felt Xiao Hong touch her. She didn't think much about it at the time. It turned out that she was in the car.
Give it to her?
It's just Lan Yuze...
She stood up, took the check and folded it, and wanted to return it to Xiao Hong when she found time. She didn't need it. Seeing such an action, Lan Yuze became even more angry, thinking that she cherished everything Huang Xiaoran gave her.
"Tell me! Are you ready to leave with him?" Lan Yuze clasped her chin and asked sharply.
Painful, as if the bones were about to separate, Xia Xinyan stared back at him, didn't he know her relationship with Huang Xiaoran? Four years ago, he was in the ward, and four years later, when she knew her relationship with Huang Xiaoran,
At that time, Lan Yuze was also in the ward.
It's just that he looks like someone trying to catch an adulterer...
"Let go." She said calmly, the place where he pinched her hurt.
Lan Yuze looked at her cold eyes and was slightly stunned... When he heard her voice, it was like the breeze blowing by his ears, piercing his heart... In an instant, Lan Yuze came back to his senses. What was he doing?
What to do?
He hurt her again...
"I'm sorry." He stood up, not even having the courage to look at her... He staggered toward the door, and the distance between them seemed to be getting farther and farther... Every step he took was like an invisible wall.
He was trying hard to close the distance between the two of them, but how could he get out of such a map?
"I'll go back to China tomorrow."
Xia Xinyan's clear voice came from behind, without any emotion, as plain as water.
He paused for a moment and then walked away...
In the room, Xia Xinyan buried her head in her arms, and the thick hat on her head failed to stop the layers of coldness rising in her body.
The next day.
"Miss, this is your ticket. It's three o'clock in the afternoon." The housekeeper took the ticket and said to her respectfully.
Xia Xinyan was basking in the sun while holding her son in her arms. Feng'er seemed to have slowly gotten used to her presence, pulling her hair and playing with it, "Thank you."
"Miss, you are so polite! The young master is still in the company. I will bring him back at two o'clock."
Xia Xinyan looked at Feng'er's happy expression and said nothing.
"Baby, we're going back, okay?" Xia Xinyan pinched his little face, and the little guy smiled at her.
Two o'clock in the afternoon.
The driver was so anxious that he walked around the villa. It was already this hour. Why hasn't the young master come back yet? It takes fifty minutes from here to the airport. It's too late to be late! He looked at Xia Xinyan and Xia Ruofeng dressed neatly and waited.
Holding the young master.
The phone is not working, and the message to contact him is not working. It seems that there is no way.
"Miss Xia, let's go to the airport first. The young master may go directly from the company, so we won't wait."
Xia Xinyan smiled and said "Okay" softly. The driver was a Chinese who was brought here from China. He looked about 40 or 50 years old and had an approachable smile. He had been working for many years and had never seen this before.
A master who is so polite to his servants.
I hope the young master will not disappoint such a woman!
Inside the airport.
The buzzing sounds came one after another, and the buzzer used a sweet voice to remind the passengers not to miss the time. Xia Xinyan saved the check in her pocket, and it seemed that she had to find an opportunity to return it to her. She placed it at the boarding gate.
Looking out, the driver stood outside and waved to her.
She saw several people behind her wearing peaked caps. The hats were worn very low, covering their faces... When she saw them looking at them, they hurriedly lowered their heads.
Xia Xinyan showed a vague smile. The little guy in her arms seemed a little excited about so many people. He looked around with big eyes. When he saw a tall man, he shouted inarticulately, "
Dial eight'.
Xia Xinyan felt sour and hugged him tighter.
The moment the plane took off and rushed into Yunxiao, my nose was a little sore, and tears fell on Feng'er's face... There were clusters of clouds outside the window, like white cotton, so pure that they were the cleanest things in the world.
.On the window, she saw herself crying.
Her eyes were a little red and swollen, and her hair was a little messed up by the little guy, which only reminded her of being embarrassed.
Find a wet tissue from your bag, dry your face, arrange your clothes and hair, and show a satisfied smile in the mirror! If you want to go, you must go beautifully.
"Pfft..." A burst of laughter came from around her, full of joy. Xia Xinyan turned around and saw... it was the little nurse who used to take care of her grandma. She subconsciously looked back...
"Sister Xia, who are you looking for?"
"No, why are you here?" Xia Xinyan tried hard to cover up the beating in her heart.
"I wanted to leave a long time ago. I thought it would be better to go back to China. I resigned a long time ago and after finishing all the things, I bought a plane ticket. Unexpectedly...I saw you as soon as I came here. What a coincidence." The nurse said.
I'm very happy, what a fate!
"Oh, by the way, my name is Zhang Yujing, why are you the only one?"
Xia Xinyan smiled and said, "Well, I'm alone."
The two looked at each other and smiled. Some things were not suitable to be mentioned on the table. The two of them talked until the plane landed. In fact, most of it was Zhang Yujing who was talking and Xia Xinyan was listening.
But what Xia Xinyan doesn't know is why Lan Yuze, who is far away in the United States, didn't come? She also doesn't know what kind of twists and turns there are between the two.
Is it hate, love, or fate...
"Oh! I finally returned to China! The air smelled like China, so comfortable!" Zhang Yujing took Xia Xinyan's suitcase to herself, got off the plane, opened her arms, and cheered.
"Yes." Xia Xinyan responded, this land... contains so many of her joys, sorrows, sorrows and separations. As soon as she stepped in, everything flashed before her eyes over and over again!
"Well..." Zhang Yujing walked closer to Xia Xinyan and smiled flatteringly, "I haven't been back to China for several years. If you want to be my tour guide, I'm afraid of getting lost. And... I have no place to live. Of course, the cost is,
I cover it, I cover it all!”
It was like she didn't agree. It was nice. It reminded her of Liu Yinghui. When she asked for something, she would pull her sleeves and smile flatteringly.
The two of them took a taxi and went to her long-lost shabby neighborhood. It was still the same as in the memory. It was just that there were fewer and fewer people...
"Have you ever felt that someone is following us?" After getting out of the taxi, Zhang Yujing whispered in her ear.
Xia Xinyan looked behind her. She saw the car that had been following her from the airport. Through the glass, she could vaguely see the people inside, with the peaked caps on their heads. She followed her here from the United States, Lan Yuze, how are you doing?
of!
Entering the house, Zhang Yujing didn't show anything strange to the shabby furniture. She was busy packing her things, putting the little one on the bed, and then the two of them started cleaning!
This work lasted for several hours, until the two of them were exhausted and panting.
"Wow! He drew a map..." Zhang Yujing glanced at Xia Ruofeng, but she didn't expect him to be wet all over.
Xia Xinyan hurriedly picked him up, her back was soaked with urine, took a shower, changed clothes, and washed the sheets. Xia Xinyan hurriedly put down some noodles, and the two fell asleep.
Time is like quicksand between fingers, slipping away inadvertently...
"My darling, let's go out and play." Zhang Yujing hugged Xia Ruofeng and kissed her again and again. In this week, she finally found out about the neighborhood. It's a bit far from the city, which is a pity. It's very quiet, like this
The weather is great and shopping is so fun.
Xia Xinyan hung up the last piece of clothing, "You..." After all, Zhang Yujing had just returned to China and was full of curiosity about everything around her.
For more than a week, the two of them didn't go anywhere. They stayed in this small room. Thinking about it, they couldn't keep their children in the room all the time.
"Pack up and let's go!"
Zhang Yujing happily hugged Xia Ruofeng and rushed out. Xia Xinyan followed behind, fearing that she would fall and hurt Feng.
On the street, there are many people standing shoulder to shoulder. The house is full of laughter and laughter. It is almost summer... There are already people on the street wearing miniskirts, small vests, and exposed skin. I wonder who is dizzy and is blinded?
Suddenly, Xia Xinyan was attracted by the picture in front of her...
It was a large LED screen in front of a supermarket. The picture seemed to be at an airport. Lan Yuze had black sunglasses, a casual blue jacket, and black jeans. He had fluffy hair, tight cheeks, and an awe-inspiring temperament. He had three-dimensional facial features and a heroic look between his brows.
A group of reporters held microphones and chased his footsteps...
"Mr. Lan, I heard that you are getting married, right?"
"Mr. Lan, you disappeared for more than a year some time ago. It is said that you were hunted by the underworld and you were hiding. Is that so?"
"…………"
"Mr. Lan, I heard news from the United States that your relative's monument was copied. Is this true?"
When Lan Yuze heard such news, his steps suddenly stopped! His face could not be seen clearly through his sunglasses, but the tightly closed lips and tight cheeks showed that the master was holding back his anger at the moment!
A security guard came up behind him to protect the frame. He stood there like a star holding the moon, motionless and silent. Everyone was stunned, wondering what he wanted to do?
But when Xia Xinyan heard the reporter's question, her whole body froze! Relatives and tombstones were confiscated? Lan Yuze's parents were buried in China, so... could it be grandma? Grandma?
Xia Xinyan's breathing was rapid and her nerves were tense!
Everyone listened with bated breath, waiting for Lan Yuze's explanation, but he stood there, silent for a minute, and walked away without saying a word.
"This..." Zhang Yujing's face also turned a little pale. She seemed to have thought of something?
Xia Xinyan suddenly ran towards the intersection.
Zhang Yujing was terrified. There were so many people and cars here... She saw Xia Xinyan get into a taxi and the car turned towards the airport.
"Baby, let's go back." Maybe she shouldn't have come today. If something like this happened, if it was really grandma... She didn't know if Xia Xinyan could bear it?
