Xia Cen Xi heard a chuckle beside him.

"Very nice people.... ”

Jin Heng repeated in a deep voice, his eyes always looking ahead and not speaking again.

Xia Cen Xi didn't ask what Jin Hengshen meant, she was afraid of ruining this inexplicable but palpitating atmosphere.

Through the dim street lights, she watched cautiously at the drivers and was happy.

Back at the villa, the cold in the past finally got a little more warmth because of the people around me.

Jin Hengshen saw the necklace hanging around her neck at the moment when Xia Cen Xi bent down to change her shoes, reflecting the delicate collarbone line, shining.

He turned his back to Xia Cen and smiled silently with his back to Xia Cen by taking off his coat.

Jin Hengshen had a rare good night's sleep, and Xia Cen Xi woke up in the morning feeling refreshed.

When Yao Minfang's phone called, Xia Cen Xi was about to walk into the company's door.

"What's the matter, Mom?"

Because the continuous influx of people towards the company embraced Xia Cen in the middle, she said a little impatiently.

After a short silence on Yao Minfang's side, Xia Censi "fed" twice more, and then she heard her crying gasp.

"Mom, what's wrong with you? What's wrong? You tell me slowly. ”

Xia Cen Xi's hurried footsteps stopped, and Jin Hengshen, who had just parked the car and walked over, looked at her and didn't immediately get on the elevator.

"Cen Xi... Cen Xi... Your dad he..."

When it came to Xia Zhangxing, she seemed to be completely unable to control her emotions and cried.

Xia Cen Xi frowned and realized the seriousness of the matter.

"Mom, don't worry, I'll come over right away. ”

After hanging up the phone, she turned around and walked outside the building, and when she saw Jin Hengshen, she was stunned for a moment, thinking that he had already gone upstairs.

"Deep... I might have to go back to my mom now, so I'll take a leave of absence today. ”

Jin Hengshen was expressionless and nodded.

When I rushed home as fast as I could, as soon as I opened the door, I saw Yao Minfang sitting alone on the sofa sobbing, and there were scattered photo frames on the coffee table in front of her.

"What's going on? Mom?"

Xia Cenxi walked over and put her hands around her shoulders, Yao Minfang looked at Xia Cenxi with red and swollen eyes, and cried loudly.

At this time, Xia Cen Xi caught a glimpse of the photo frame on the table, which was a group photo of a family of three before he went to the UK to study, but now it has been shattered.

In Xia Cenxi's memory, Yao Minfang, as the daughter of Commander Yao, has never seen such a fragile side of her mother.

"Cen Xi... Your dad he... He's going to divorce me..."

Xia Cen Xi was also completely stunned after hearing her words.

She didn't know how to describe her complicated feelings at the moment, feeling fantastical, and feeling that it seemed to be taken for granted.

In her childhood, there was very little involvement of her father.

Xia Zhangxing is more like a family decision-maker for her, and that's it. He always has a straight face and a stern look, and his family relationship is limited to the growing Xia Group.

"Mom... Don't worry. Tell me what the hell is going on, and why did you mention it all of a sudden...... What about divorce?"

She helped Yao Minfang up from her arms and handed over a tissue.

"It's not all because of that woman! the woman who has been haunted for more than 20 years!"

Speaking of this, Yao Weifang suddenly overturned all the items on the table to the ground.

Xia Cen Xi Jinzhou was confused, is this, his father cheating?

She looked at her roaring mother, motioned to the silent maid in the distance to clean up all the belongings, and wiped the tears from her face with a tissue.

"Mom, what the hell is going on?"

The long line of time has pulled up an endless past in the space, and Xia Cen Xi heard her mother's crying narration, and she seemed to be in it.

More than 20 years ago, there were no high-rise buildings in Shanghai, and Xia Zhangxing had just come to Shanghai from a small town to work hard.

In that era of scarcity of materials, people without any background could only become the lowest figures in this society.

In order to make a living, Xia Zhangxing came to the former Tingying Group, which is now the Xia family, and became an ordinary security guard.

No one would have thought that a poor boy with nothing would take charge of the group twenty years later and become the famous president of the Xia Group.

In Yao Minfang's account, she first heard about a woman named "Yingyi".

The story is the same, and the reality is fragmented.

Ying Yi was met by Xia Zhangxing in the vegetable market, gentle and lovely, and fell in love at first sight.

That was the first warmth that a poor boy felt when he came to a big city.

At that time, the Yao family was dominant, and Commander Yao single-handedly founded Tingying Group in the later period, taking over the real estate industry that was not prosperous at that time.

And Yao Minfang was the most famous beauty of that era.

Xia Cen Xi learned from her mother that her acquaintance with Xia Zhangxing was a cliché hero saving beauty.

The beginning of the parents' story seems a little ridiculous to Xia Cenxi.

Xia Cen Xi even felt that she was following in her mother's footsteps and falling in love with someone she shouldn't love.

Because of Yao Minfang, Xia Zhangxing has become a member of Tingying Group sitting in the office, and he has also become a celebrity next to Commander Yao.

At that time, Yao Minfang became more and more interested in him, but Yingyi, who he was thinking about, appeared less and less.

It wasn't until Xia Zhangxing sent Yao Minfang home on the order of Commander Yao that in that splendid villa, he saw Ying Yi wearing a maid's costume and wiping the floor.

He had tried to fight for it, but the power and the gap between the rich and the poor were enough to crush anyone.

"Later... I'll make your daddy...... He married me, and I don't know if the woman is still in touch, and I don't want to know. ”

"Over the years, I have watched him step by step to the present, from having nothing to covering the sky with one hand. It's not that my mother doesn't know his thoughts, it's just for this family, I can't..."

Seeing Yao Minfang's tears falling down her cheeks, Xia Cen Xi's heart was only distressed.

"Mom, it's okay, it's okay. ”

Is this a fate?

If you can't ask for it, you won't live long.

Yao Minfang shook her head and suppressed her choked throat.

"Cen Xi, mom only has you now. As long as you can have a child with Hengshen, I can rest assured, at least the Xia Group will not..."

"Mom?!"

Xia Cen was stunned at the moment, looking at his mother in front of him with disbelief.

"Shopping malls are like battlefields, how can you still not understand that it has only been a few generations to achieve such a big industry, and you can't collapse here, do you understand? Cen Xi, the Jin family is not only your dependence, but also the dependence of our entire family!"

Xia Cenxi didn't expect that all this Yao Minfang said was waiting for him here.

It's ridiculous.

"Then you have to take advantage of me?!"

Childhood memories came up one after another, Xia Cen Xi couldn't bear it anymore, and the physiological surging in her stomach couldn't stop churning.

Yao Minfang's tears couldn't stop flowing.

"Cen Xi, these are all things you have to choose. You know, mom really only has you now..."

"Why, why does it have to be like this? Isn't it good to be happy? Why is it me?"

Xia Cen Xi only felt tired.

Outsiders see each other respectfully, but the inside is scattered.

The glory and wealth seen by outsiders are for Xia Cen Xi.

It's just shackles, layer upon layer.

Do not break free.
