Wei Yuanxi stared at the one-inch photo in the transparent bag, frowning slightly.

Although the photo was slightly yellowed, he really recognized the woman in the photo as Ji Anxin's mother.

He only saw it on Ji Jianmin's mobile phone not long ago today, so it is impossible to admit his mistake.

Wei Yuanxi held his forehead, and his heart suddenly beat fast, as if he had discovered some secret.

Gao Zhan watched from the side and asked incomprehensibly, "Mr. Wei, is there any problem?"

"......" Wei Yuanxi didn't speak, and looked at him in a daze.

A man doesn't keep a picture of his wife in his wallet, but he treasures another woman's.

Wei Yuanxi, who is also a man, looked at it and more or less understood.

He pinched his eyebrows, and for a moment he felt like he was out of breath.

Wei Yuanxi closed his eyes, and suddenly said to Gao Zhan, "What does that Yang Muke look like?" ”

Gao Zhan quickly reacted, took out a document on the table, turned to the page with Yang Muke's photo, and then handed it to Wei Yuanxi to see.

"Mr. Wei, here. He said, gesturing.

Wei Yuanxi turned his head to look, and when his eyes fell on Yang Muke's photo, he suddenly froze.

He grabbed the document and held An Yuyan's photo in the other hand.

As soon as the two photos were aligned, Wei Yuanxi suddenly understood.

Gao Zhan looked at it and was a little surprised: "Hey, these two people still look a little alike." ”

Wei Yuanxi looked at it in a daze, and suddenly said in his mouth: "Go out." ”

Gao Zhan was a little confused, but he saw that his boss's face was very bad, so he didn't dare to ask more, so he hurriedly retreated.

Wei Yuanxi's heart seemed to be blocked by something, and it seemed to be pressed by a heavy stone, so muffled and depressed that even the sound of breathing became heavy.

"What the hell is going on?"

Wei Yuanxi scratched his hair irritably, his brain and heart were very messy.

He always felt that a lot of secrets had suddenly popped up in front of him.

These secrets were like a messy tangle of threads, the ends of which were hidden in the depths, and he tried to find them out but couldn't find the entrance.

He thought about it late at night in the company, and he never had a clue.

Ji Anxin sent a message to ask when he would come back, Wei Yuanxi didn't even know how to face her, so he had to say that he was working overtime in the company and asked her to sleep first, without waiting.

At half past eleven o'clock in the evening, Wei Yuanxi drove home.

He changed his shoes in the hallway, and when he walked into the living room, he found Ji Anxin sleeping on the sofa.

The lights were still on in the living room, and the TV was still playing a late-night variety show.

Several hosts giggled on stage, making the audience laugh together.

Ji Anxin had his head pillowed on a pillow, and his legs were covered with a light blanket, and he fell asleep like that.

Obviously, he clearly said that she should not wait for him.

But she was still like this, stubbornly waiting for him to come back.

Wei Yuanxi's chest was stuffy, and there was a bit of sweetness in the sourness.

He breathed a sigh of relief, lifted his steps, and approached her.

"Mom, don't ......" At this moment, Ji Anxin on the sofa suddenly talked in his dream.

Wei Yuanxi suddenly stopped, and even the sound of his breathing was lowered.

"Don't, don't leave me. Ji Anxin seemed to be sleeping very incomfortably, and his brows were always frowning slightly, "Don't you want me to be with my grandmother......?"

"Mom, I miss you so much, I really miss you so much......"

Her dream words are incoherent, but they are always about An Yuyan.

Wei Yuanxi slowed down and squatted down next to her.

He noticed a tear streak slipping through the corner of her eye.

The dream talk also became sobbing and choking, mixed with the sound of sobbing.

Wei Yuanxi's brows furrowed, and his chest couldn't help but throb.

It was the first time he stayed with her in the Wei family's old mansion before, and she was like this in the middle of the night, calling her mother all the time in her dreams.

He remembered that she once said that she thought about it day and dreamed at night, and the poor were worried about their livelihood, so they would inevitably worry about money, thinking about how to save money, how to do more work, and they would inevitably be entangled by this obsession at night. He also said that there are many people who are sad and sad when their relatives have died, and there are many people who are always entangled and frightened by their deceased relatives in their dreams.

Wei Yuanxi remembered what she said for a moment, and stroked her eyebrows and eyes distressedly.

He still remembered that she looked like she was talking in a relaxed tone like someone else, and now, he watched her immersed in her dreams, talking nonsense, tears streaming from the corners of her eyes, and seemed to understand that she might be talking about herself.

"I'm sorry......" Wei Yuanxi didn't know what to say, he only hated himself for knowing her too late.

His knees were on the ground, and he leaned over slightly, his hands gently wrapping around her.

"It's okay, it's just a dream. Wei Yuanxi's lips were close to her ear and whispered softly, "I'm here, don't worry." ”

Ji Anxin gradually became calmer, perhaps hearing his voice, she slowly opened her eyes.

"Yuanxi ......" she opened her mouth, and her voice was a little hoarse.

"Awake?" Wei Yuanxi looked up, looked at her and smiled.

Ji Anxin blinked his eyes, and did not recover from his dream for a while.

Wei Yuanxi raised his hand, helped her gently wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes, and asked in a relaxed tone, "Did you have a nightmare?"

"......" Ji Anxin didn't speak, tilted his head to avoid his gaze, and then spoke: "No." ”

Wei Yuanxi frowned, realizing that she didn't want to talk about An Yuyan, not even dreams.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Ji Anxin turned his head again, his eyes fell on his face, and asked, "What's wrong?"

"It's fine. Wei Yuanxi shook his head.

Since she didn't want to say it, he didn't ask.

Ji Anxin looked at him, his eyes were stunned, as if he was very nostalgic.

She suddenly leaned on the back of the couch and sat up.

"Wei Yuanxi. She whispered the man's name, her hands around his neck, and leaned against him tightly.

Wei Yuanxi knew that she was in a very low mood at the moment, so he also tightened his hands and encircled her in his arms.

As if he was afraid of losing him, Ji Anxin hugged him tightly, breathed hard the breath on his body, and shouted: "Wei Yuanxi......"

She closed her eyes, and the tears that had just been erased by the man were gradually wet with tears.

Wei Yuanxi patted her on the shoulder, and said in a low voice, "Bao, I'm here." ”

Ji Anxin bit his lip tightly, not wanting to reveal his sadness at the moment.

What Ji Jianmin said during the day was still swirling in her mind, and he said: "What if you let Yuanxi know about these things you have done? How do you let him face you? Will you have a future?"

She thought, a sour throat, and hot and wet tears rolled down from the corners of her eyes.

"What's wrong?" Wei Yuanxi finally realized that something was wrong with her, and threw his arm around her shoulders to see her face.

Ji Anxin didn't let him, tightly wrapped around him, clasped his back with both hands, and buried his head on the man's shoulder, refusing to move a bit.

She hurriedly raised her hand and wiped her tears.

"It's nothing, I just want to hug you. Ji Anxin opened his mouth and pretended to be normal.

Wei Yuanxi didn't move anymore, just hugged her back.

"Okay, you can hold it for as long as you want. His other hand gently stroked Ji Anxin's hair, and his voice was low.

With just this sentence, Ji Anxin's tears that had been wiped away just now ran out of his eyes again.

She lifted her arm and wiped it again.

Ji Anxin has never felt that he loves to shed tears so much, as if the tears that he has endured for many years suddenly all gathered at this moment.

"Yuanxi ......," she called his name again.

"Huh?" Wei Yuanxi replied gently.

Ji Anxin rubbed his shoulder, and said without saying anything: "Will we always be together?"

"Of course. Wei Yuanxi hooked the corners of his lips and said in a domineering tone, "You married me, and you will be my woman for the rest of your life, and you can't run away if you want to." ”

Ji Anxin listened and suddenly laughed.

"Would you forgive me if I had done something wrong?" she asked again.

Wei Yuanxi continued: "Yes, no matter what you do. ”

"......" Ji Anxin fell silent and bit his lip stubbornly.

I'm sorry, she said silently in her heart.

Later, Wei Yuanxi carried her back to bed, and that night, Ji Anxin didn't close his eyes all night.

The next day, Wei Yuanxi asked Gao Zhan to cancel all the trips for the day and drove to the Kerry Residence.

Since he held his wedding with Ji Anxin, Ji Anxin has moved to him, and Jiang Mingyue still lives in the Kerry Apartment, and her usual life is taken care of by the aunt invited by Ji Anxin.

Wei Yuanxi thought that the answer he couldn't get from Ji Anxin might be known from Jiang Mingyue.

He quickly got downstairs and took the elevator all the way upstairs.

After ringing the doorbell, he stood outside and waited.

It didn't take long for my aunt to come and open the door.

"Three less. She shouted.

Wei Yuanxi nodded and asked, "Where is grandma?"

The aunt wiped her hands on her apron and replied with a smile: "The old lady is watering the flowers on the balcony." ”

Wei Yuanxi took a step and went straight to Chaochaotai.

"Grandma. He looked at Jiang Mingyue, who was carrying a kettle on the balcony for watering, and shouted.

Jiang Mingyue stopped what she was doing, turned around, and smiled with a wrinkled face.

"Oh, Yuanxi is here. Her voice was filled with joy.

Wei Yuanxi also smiled and said, "Watering the flowers." ”

Jiang Mingyue nodded and said, "Yes, these flowers are very squeamish, if you don't water them for a day, they will droop down, and they will have a lot of water." ”

As she spoke, she picked up the jug and watered another pot of flowers.

Wei Yuanxi looked at it, those flowers were covered with water droplets, bright and dripping, tender and raw.

Jiang Mingyue tilted her head, glanced at him, and asked, "Come so early, what's wrong?"

"Definitely. Wei Yuanxi nodded.

Jiang Mingyue didn't speak again, and after watering the flowers, she put down the kettle.

"Let's go to the living room, let's talk slowly. She pointed to Wei Yuanxi in the room.

Wei Yuanxi answered and walked into the house.

After the two sat down on the sofa, the aunt also made tea.

She brought it over, put a cup in front of Wei Yuanxi and Jiang Mingyue, and then exited the living room with interest.

Jiang Mingyue looked at Wei Yuanxi on the opposite side and said, "What's the matter?" ”

Wei Yuanxi coughed lightly and said with some hesitation: "It's about An Xin's mother......"

Hearing this, Jiang Mingyue's hand that stretched out to hold the teacup suddenly froze.

Wei Yuanxi noticed it keenly, and continued to say: "An Xin doesn't talk to me much about her mother, but I recently found out that she is always dreaming, and she keeps calling her mother in her dreams, and sometimes she will cry. ”

"To be honest, I was very distressed when I saw it, and I wondered if I could help her. Wei Yuanxi tugged at the corners of his mouth, and said helplessly, "But she never mentioned it, and she didn't want to say it when I asked, so I don't know the crux of the problem......

Jiang Mingyue withdrew her hand, and her face became heavy.

She let out a long sigh, embarrassed: "Actually, I have never told An Xin about this to the outside world, An Xin's mother ......"

Speaking of this, Jiang Mingyue seemed to be unable to bear to mention it, and her mouth closed again.

Wei Yuanxi looked at it and realized that there might really be something bad in it.

He didn't speak, just waited patiently.

After a long time, Jiang Mingyue stroked her chest before she spoke: "An Xin's mother is also a hard-working person. ”

After graduating from college, she worked outside for a few years and then came back one day out of the blue. Jiang Mingyue pursed the corners of her lips and fell into a memory, "She didn't say anything, she just said that she would never leave again." ”

Later, she told me that she was pregnant with a child in her belly and was going to give birth, and I guess she should have been hurt by a man before she ran back. I was against it at first, thinking that she was still young and could find another one to rely on in the future, and it would be difficult to find a man if she carried a drag oil bottle. ”

She didn't listen, she was very stubborn, and she said that she would give birth to the child. Speaking of this, Jiang Mingyue sighed, "I really can't help it, so I have to agree." ”

"Our place is small, and some things will be spread, Yuyan is unmarried and pregnant, and it is inevitable that people will point fingers at her with a big belly. Some people have broken mouths, and Yuyan has suffered a lot in this regard. ”

"Later, she finally gave birth to An Xin, but there was something wrong with her spirit, her life was unclear, and she didn't have any mental ......."

When the words fell, Jiang Mingyue suddenly rubbed the corners of her eyes.

Wei Yuanxi looked at it and hurriedly handed over the tissue next to him.

Jiang Mingyue shook her head and said, "No." ”

"Mom, does she suffer from postpartum depression?" Wei Yuanxi opened his mouth and asked.

"I don't know. Jiang Mingyue still shook her head, "I also wanted to take her to the hospital at that time, but as soon as she got close to the hospital, she was very excited and didn't dare to take her there." ”

"However, I think it may have something to do with the man who hurt her, yes, it's Ji Jianmin. Jiang Mingyue paused, and then said: "She hasn't mentioned Anxin's father to me for several years, and there was also a time when she suddenly remembered and mentioned it to me." At that time, Anxin was exactly twelve years old. ”

Jiang Mingyue looked at him, and there was a sour feeling in her throat.

"On that day, I was helping people outside, and it was usually Yuyan who picked up Anxin from school. However, she did not go that day. Jiang Mingyue rubbed her eyes again, "It was An Xin who found ......"

She got out of school and ran all the way home, but when she opened the door, she found that Yuyan had already hanged herself in the house. ”

Jiang Mingyue choked in her throat, she covered her face with her hands, and her shoulders trembled suddenly.

"......" Wei Yuanxi was stunned and speechless.

Little did he know that this was the case.

Jiang Mingyue's voice sobbed: "She was only twelve years old at that time......

Yes, she was only twelve years old.

Wei Yuanxi suddenly remembered that he was twelve years old, he was raised by Chen Shuyuan's side at that time, there were servants to eat, wear and play, and he could go to the amusement park every weekend, and he could travel abroad during long vacations. Although Wei Yucheng and Zhou Yu are not particularly affectionate, they are also responsive to him.

And Ji Anxin, she witnessed the tragic situation of her mother hanging herself at that time.

Wei Yuanxi's chest was sullen, and he was so depressed that he couldn't speak.

"Grandma, I'm sorry......" Wei Yuanxi suddenly said to Jiang Mingyue, "I shouldn't have mentioned your sadness. ”

Jiang Mingyue sobbed for a while, and slowly eased up.

She breathed a long sigh of relief and said to Wei Yuanxi: "Yuanxi, Anxin She used to have a hard time, she didn't have a father when she was born, and her mother was gone when she was twelve years old. When she was in her third year of high school, I had a serious illness, and she had to give up the opportunity to go to college and sign a contract with the company to act. ”

"Anxin had good grades and could have gone to a prestigious university, but it was because I gave up. Jiang Mingyue stroked her chest and said guiltily, "This matter has always been a knot in my heart, and I am sorry for her." ”

"We Anxin have been living for others for so many years, and we almost don't think about ourselves, but ......" Jiang Mingyue looked at Wei Yuanxi wistfully, "But, I can see that she loves you very much." ”

"Promise Grandma that no matter what An Xin does, you must not abandon her, okay?"

Wei Yuanxi's eyes were red when she said this, and she bypassed the coffee table and sat down next to her.

"Grandma, where are you?" Wei Yuanxi patted her on the shoulder and said earnestly, "How could I abandon her? She is my wife, and she wants to live with me for the rest of her life, even if she abandons me, I will pester her." ”

"That's good. Jiang Mingyue patted him with a pair of old hands and said with relief.

Wei Yuanxi hooked his lips and said, "Grandma, don't tell An Xin about my coming to you, she shouldn't like me to ask you this." ”

Jiang Mingyue nodded and responded.

Later, they chatted about something else, Jiang Mingyue wanted to keep him for brunch, but Wei Yuanxi refused, saying that the company still had something to do.

In fact, he didn't know how to face Jiang Mingyue.

Wei Yuanxi got out of the elevator and ran all the way back to his car.

With a thud, he slammed the door shut.

The noisy sound outside was suddenly cut off, and Wei Yuanxi leaned back in his chair, his chest heaving and panting.

He closed his eyes and leaned back.

She got out of school and ran all the way home, but when she opened the door, she found that Yuyan had already hanged herself in the house. ”

Anxin used to have a hard time, she didn't have a father when she was born, and her mother was gone when she was twelve years old. When she was in her third year of high school, I had a serious illness, and she had to give up the opportunity to go to college and sign a contract with the company to act. ”

"We in Anxin have been living for others for so many years, almost without thinking about ourselves. ”

……

As soon as I closed my eyes, my mind was full of the words Jiang Mingyue said.

Wei Yuanxi wiped his face, his head swollen.

He suddenly wanted to hug Ji Anxin and tell her: "You have me now, the previous misfortunes are over, and we will be happy in the future." ”

I really want to hold her.

Thinking like this, Wei Yuanxi's eyes gradually became moist and hot.

He raised his arm, wiped his eyes, and took out his mobile phone to call Ji Anxin.

"Hey, Yuanxi?" Ji Anxin's voice rang on the other end of the phone.

Wei Yuanxi kneaded her eyebrows, and her eyes were wet again almost the moment she spoke.

He didn't speak, and Ji Anxin asked with concern: "Why don't you speak, is something wrong?"

"Wife. Wei Yuanxi suddenly shouted, his voice a little hoarse.

"You scared the hell out of me. Ji Anxin finally breathed a sigh of relief, and said a little strangely, "Why is your voice weird?"

Wei Yuanxi was stunned, coughed lightly, restrained his surging emotions, and pretended to be a normal voice and said, "It's okay, the cold hasn't healed yet." ”

Ji Anxin said, "Have you taken the medicine today?"

"......," Wei Yuanxi muttered, "it doesn't seem to be there yet." ”

"You're really, I should have supervised you to take the medicine, such a big person, and it makes people worry...... Ji An said in a chattering voice.

"Wife. Wei Yuanxi suddenly interrupted her and said in a low voice, "I miss you so much." ”

On the other side of the phone, Ji Anxin was stunned and didn't speak for a long time.

After a long time, she finally found her voice and asked, "Why are you suddenly so delicate today?"

The whole person was sticky, and when I was at work, I suddenly called and said that I missed her very much.

Wei Yuanxi hooked the corners of his lips and said, "It's nothing, I just miss you very much and want to hear your voice." ”

Ji Anxin said, "Then do you want to record my voice so that you can listen to it at any time?"

"Okay. Wei Yuanxi nodded and replied.

Ji Anxin was about to say something more, but Yuan Chuyu came in and asked her to go to a meeting.

"I won't tell you yet, I'm busy going to the meeting. Ji Anxin hurriedly said a few words and was about to hang up the phone.

"Kiss. Wei Yuanxi said suddenly.

Ji Anxin shook his head helplessly and said, "I really can't do anything about you." ”

After the words fell, she kissed the phone screen with a sigh.

"Okay, right?"

Wei Yuanxi also kissed her back, and then let her go.

Hang up, and the car becomes quiet.

The corners of Wei Yuanxi's mouth that were hooked just now slowly sank down at this moment.

He rubbed his forehead and was about to start the car.

At this time, Lu Zhengnan's phone called.

He picked it up and listened to Lu Zhengnan talk a few words about the details of Wei Yucheng's case.

At the end, Wei Yuanxi asked, "Will you go to the Patrol Bureau today?"

Lu Zhengnan replied: "On the way to go." ”

"I'll see you later. Wei Yuanxi answered and pinched off the phone.

He grabbed the steering wheel, restarted the car, and drove to the Patrol Bureau.

Regarding the photo of An Yuyan, he felt that he should ask Wei Yucheng for an explanation.

The car drove for about 40 minutes and arrived at the gate of the patrol bureau.

Lu Zhengnan took a step forward, and just walked up the stairs, he heard the sound of the car horn, and he stood on the stairs and turned around.

The weather at the beginning of July, the sun is already scorching.

It was past noon, and the sun was strong.

He raised his arm to block out the sunlight and watched Wei Yuanxi get out of the car and walk towards him.

"Let's go inside. Wei Yuanxi came close and said in a deep voice.

Lu Zhengnan nodded and continued what he had not said in the car before.

"I will definitely do my best in my uncle's case, but the current situation is not optimistic. In my opinion, if you don't say anything, you have to pay three years. Lu Zhengnan and Wei Yuanxi walked in side by side, and said not very optimistically.

Wei Yuanxi glanced at him and said, "Just do your best." ”

"......" Lu Zhengnan was stunned, he didn't expect him to be so calm.

The two met with the police officer in charge of Wei's case, and then were allowed to meet with Wei.

Wei Yuanxi entered a room, and the door was guarded to patrol.

Lu Zhengnan didn't follow up, but went to another room with the officer to talk.

In the room, Wei Yucheng sat behind a spacious table and watched his son sit down across from him.

To be honest, he didn't have much face facing him at this moment, and his head couldn't help but droop.

Wei Yuanxi glanced at him, pulled the corners of his mouth and said, "Don't worry, I will not beat you or scold you when I come over today." ”

As he spoke, a slight sarcasm hung on the corner of his mouth.

"At first, I was a little surprised, I didn't expect you to do such a dirty thing at such an old age. Wei Yuanxi stared at him, "However, later the second brother told me, maybe this is not the first time you have done this......"

Wei Yucheng seemed to have been suddenly provoked, he raised his head suddenly, and looked at Wei Yuanxi excitedly.

"Your second brother, what else did he say?"

Wei Yuanxi looked at it, and suddenly saw Wei Yucheng's abnormality, and he raised his eyebrows in surprise.

He suddenly remembered the hesitation and cover-up when his second brother Wei Zhongqin said these words, and then thought of Wei Yucheng's attitude at the moment, and the doubts and curiosity in his heart became heavier.

"You and the second brother, are you hiding something?" his gaze fell on Wei Yucheng's face, and he asked in a deep tone.

"......" Wei Yucheng looked at him silently, and after a few seconds, he reacted and realized that he didn't seem to know what happened back then.

Wei Yucheng coughed lightly and evaded: "It's none of your business." ”

Wei Yuanxi snorted in his nose, estimating that he wouldn't tell himself.

He fumbled in his pocket for the photo, which he had put in since yesterday.

"It's all about me. Wei Yuanxi took out the yellowed photo and pushed it in front of Wei Yucheng.

Wei Yucheng's gaze only glanced at it, and then froze.

Wei Yuanxi paid attention to his expression, his eyebrows twisted slightly, and he opened his lips and said, "Let's talk about it, why is An Xin's mother's photo in your wallet?"
