I sat on the sofa and made random guesses about the other party's identity.
"There are still nineteen minutes left." Lingxi reminded me: "The other party and I made an appointment to meet at 10:30 in the morning. Now...well, it's 9:40."
"Oh oh oh, right away." I trotted upstairs, brushed my teeth, washed my face, and washed my head.
By the way, I used a hair dryer to give me a hairstyle that I thought was quite handsome.
After locking the door and getting in the car, Lingxi drove straight to downtown Zhongzhou.
In the car, Lingxi asked me seemingly casually: "Do you still have an impression of your grandparents, uncle, and others?"
I don't understand why Lingxi asks all these questions.
But she is a master, and there is no need for me to hide what she wants to know from her.
So I shook my head slowly and said, "Since my mother left the Su family, my grandparents have completely cut off contact with us."
"I was only seven years old at that time. Even if I remember some fragmentary scenes, I have forgotten their appearance."
After thinking about it, I added: "But I heard from people in the village that my mother took them all away after she got rich in Zhongzhou."
"With her current status, it is not difficult to give her family a fortune."
I forced a smile and said: "One person can achieve enlightenment and ascend to heaven, unlike our Su family, who spend their entire lives wandering around in Taoshan Village."
"If it weren't for the evil spirits haunting you, and if my sister hadn't made the connection for me to meet you, I might never have had the chance to come to Zhongzhou to meet you."
Lingxi retorted: "Each has its own benefits, but you are still young and unable to appreciate them."
“Taoshan Village is small, safe and peaceful.”
"Zhongzhou is prosperous and full of dangers."
"If I really had to choose, I would rather live in seclusion in a remote mountain valley. The sun rises and sets and I rest, peacefully and calmly."
Lingxi said with longing: "By the way, you also have an aunt named Fang Wenyan, remember?"
"I remember." I leaned in the back parking space and recalled: "Two years before the two families lost contact, only my aunt often visited me secretly."
"Buy me food, stationery, and a small pistol that boys love to play with."
"She was attending college in Jiangxia City at that time. During holidays, she would always come to my house to look for me like a thief."
"The first time I ate chocolate was when she bought it for me."
There was a touch of warmth in the corner of my mouth and I said, "My aunt is really kind, but it's a pity that she followed my grandparents to Zhongzhou two years later."
"I never saw her again after that."
"She didn't come to see me either."
"As for her appearance..." I closed my eyes and thought for a long time, then sighed: "I can't remember clearly. I just remember that she likes to wear long braids."
Lingxi responded softly, stopped talking, and concentrated on driving.
Five minutes later, the car arrived at the entrance of a high-end private restaurant.
Lingxi turned off the engine and parked the car, looked at me through the rearview mirror and said, "The person who invited me to dinner is your aunt Fang Wenyan, and the person who brokered the deal is your sister."
"Tong Yuan said that Fang Wenyan wants to meet you."
"According to my opinion, I didn't want to agree."
"I know you are full of resentment in your heart. Whether it is towards your mother or her family, you are disgusted to the core."
"But Tong Yuan begged me for a long time, saying that Fang Wenyan was different from those people."
"I can't resist Tong Yuan's pleading, so I can make the decision for you without authorization."
Lingxi turned around and said apologetically: "You don't blame the master, do you?"
I was about to open the door and get out of the car. When I heard Ling Xi's words, I retracted my outstretched right hand as if I was electrocuted, and said irritably: "Is it okay if I don't see you?"
