The man who came down from the mountain was none other than Si Jinyan.
"Mr. Si!" Yunxi came over holding a bouquet, "I didn't expect you to be here too!"
Seeing her, a look of surprise flashed across Si Jinyan's eyes, then returned to normal for a moment.
Reaching out for the umbrella held by his assistant, he stepped forward and raised the umbrella above Yun Xi's head.
"Why don't you hold an umbrella to avoid catching a cold?" The man's tone was full of concern.
"I was in a hurry when I came out. I didn't expect it to rain." Yun Xi smiled back at him gratefully, "What are you doing?"
"Come here to visit an old friend." Si Jinyan handed the umbrella to her, "I'll give you this umbrella. The road on the mountain is slippery, so be careful."
Yunxi couldn't refuse the other party's kindness, so he had to thank him and accept it.
The driver drove the car over, and Si Jinyan and his assistant got out of the car one after another.
Yunxi stood on the roadside and watched the two people leave, then turned and went up the mountain.
Holding an umbrella all the way to the mountain and arriving at her mother's tomb, she immediately noticed the fresh white bunch of lilies of the valley leaning against the tombstone.
Sure enough, the mysterious man is here again!
After walking a few steps quickly, Yunxi bent down and took a closer look at the lily of the valley in front of the tombstone.
After some rain fell on the lily of the valley bouquet, the part behind the bouquet next to the tombstone, but the wrapping paper was dry and had not been exposed to rain.
It was obvious that the bouquet had been placed here not long ago.
Yunxi turned around and looked down the mountain.
There was only her car parked in the parking lot.
Could it be...
Is it Si Jinyan?!
She leaned the bouquet in her hand back against the tombstone, took out her cell phone from her body, and found Si Jinyan's number and dialed it.
"Mr. Si, it's me, Yunxi. There's something wrong with my car. Could you please come back and pick me up?"
"No problem, you can find a shelter from the rain and wait, we will be back right away." Si Jinyan agreed simply.
Turning around, Yunxi quickly walked down the mountain.
When she returned to the parking lot, Si Jinyan's car also drove back.
After jogging a few steps, Yunxi folded up his umbrella and sat in the back seat of the car.
"Mr. Si, thank you!"
"Be careful, you don't have to be so polite." Si Jinyan smiled back at her, his eyes falling on her car, "I'll ask my assistant to arrange for someone to come over and help you tow the car."
"No, I've already made arrangements. Just take me back to the city." Yunxi said with a smile.
"Okay." Si Jinyan nodded and motioned to the driver to drive.
The car restarted and Yunxi sniffed gently.
There is no obvious smell of lily of the valley in the car.
Could it be that she guessed wrong?
Hearing her sniffing sound, Si Jinyan turned his face with concern: "Did you catch a cold?"
Yunxi shook his head gently and smiled: "It's okay!"
"Turn on the air conditioner." After giving instructions to the driver, Si Jinyan quickly took off his suit jacket and put it on her shoulders. "It's getting colder. We need to wear more clothes in the future. Girls need to take good care of themselves."
Carefully help her tighten her clothes, the man's posture is like a father taking care of his daughter.
"Thank you!" Yunxi smiled gratefully, and then caught the familiar scent.
Yunxi lowered his head slightly and sniffed the suit jacket on his body.
This time, she smelled it right. The scent came from the suit she was wearing, which had a clear smell of lily of the valley.
Yunxi's heart beat a little faster unconsciously.
Si Jinyan smelled of flowers. Could it be that the bouquet in front of his mother's tombstone was really sent by him?
Does he know her mother?
Of course Si Jinyan didn't know what she was thinking at the moment, so he smiled and turned away.
"Are you going to the hospital or to school?"
"Go back to school." Yunxi raised her wrist to check the time, "I still have a few questions to discuss with you about your company's promotion. There is a coffee shop opposite our school. If it is convenient for you, I would like to ask you
Have a cup of coffee?”
"Okay." Si Jinyan replied with a smile.
"Sir." The assistant turned around, "You have a meeting at half past nine."
"Ahem!" Si Jinyan coughed lightly and frowned at him, "You remember wrong, it's half past ten."
assistant:……
All right!
You are the boss, you have the final say.
The car drove to the east gate of Teikyo University and stopped outside a coffee shop on the side of the road.
The two got off the car together and walked into the coffee shop.
Because it was morning, there were almost no customers in the cafe.
The two found a corner to sit down and ordered two cups of coffee.
Looking at the man across the table, Yunxi hesitated for a moment and finally said: "Mr. Si, if my following question offends you, please forgive me."
Si Jinyan slowly stirred the coffee in his hand and said in a gentle tone, "It's okay, we are all so familiar with each other. If you have anything to say, just say it."
"Actually, I just lied. I invited you here not for company matters, but for private matters." Yunxi looked at the man's face solemnly, "Do you know my mother?"
Si Jinyan's right hand holding the spoon froze.
Could it be...
She already knows who he is?!
Si Jinyan put down the coffee cup in his hand and tried to control his emotions.
"Why...ask this suddenly?"
"There is a bouquet of lilies of the valley in front of my mother's tombstone. You have been to the cemetery just now. Isn't this a coincidence?"
Si Jinyan lowered her long eyelashes and stared at the swirling coffee liquid in the coffee cup.
The fingers holding the spoon trembled slightly.
After a moment, he slowly raised his face.
"Yes, that bouquet of flowers was sent by me."
"So you are really my mother's former friend?" Yunxi looked surprised, "Then... have you heard her say anything about my father? Do you know who my father is?"
Gently stroking the coffee cup with his fingers, Si Jinyan glanced at Yun Xi with some uncertainty.
At that moment, he almost couldn't help but tell her.
He was her father, but after hesitating for a long time, Si Jinyan finally shook his head.
Back then, he failed to fulfill his duties as a husband, let alone his responsibilities as a father.
She must hate him very much.
If she knew he was that person, she would never pay attention to him or see him again.
If she didn't know who he was, he could at least see her from time to time, take care of her more, and make up for what he had owed to their mother and daughter for so many years.
Si Jinyan clenched his fists under the coffee table: "Yunxi, I'm sorry."
Yun Xi smiled: "It's okay, this... I can't blame you."
I originally thought that by finding my mother's friend, I would be able to find out the truth.
Unexpectedly, Yunxi was a little disappointed because she was trying to get water from a bamboo basket again.
Seeing that it was getting late, Yunxi stood up in a hurry.
"Then I won't disturb you. I'm going to class first."
"umbrella!"
Si Jinyan ran after her and handed her the umbrella.
Yunxi thanked him and took it, holding an umbrella and crossing the road.
Standing outside the coffee shop, I watched the girl's back disappear into the university opposite.
Si Jinyan lowered his face and shook his head sadly.
"I'm sorry, Xiaoxi, please forgive my selfishness, you are my only daughter, I can't lose you again."
