In the sound of firecrackers, people ushered in the Spring Festival, today is Chinese New Year's Eve, the day of family reunion.

In order not to make Yan Ziqi feel lonely during the Spring Festival this year, Yan Chenghua called his relatives to his home in advance for the New Year.

In previous years, there was no such scene, no matter what major or small things used to be, it was their parents who were alone.

This year's situation is special, Yan Chenghua felt that Yan Ziqi's recent situation was very bad, so he kindly invited those relatives to give her a lively and happy life, but what he didn't know was that people with depression were actually most afraid of being lively, and they would become out of place in this hustle and bustle, and their emotions would become abnormal.

Even though Yan Ziqi had already felt the change in herself, she still didn't say it, because she also didn't want to waste Yan Chenghua's hard work.

Yan Ziqi returned to the room, and when she opened the drawer to take medicine, she found that the medicine box was empty, and after thinking about it, she hadn't been to the hospital for a long time.

At present, the Spring Festival holiday, the psychological outpatient clinic is not an emergency, and it must also be a holiday.

Yan Ziqi crumpled the empty medicine box in his hand and threw it into the trash.

Recently, she has been taking medicine for three days to fish and two days to dry her nets, and those medicines are too bitter, although they can make her sleep well, but in the end it is not sugar, so she can't eat it all the time.

"It's time for my uncles and uncles to arrive, come down and have dinner. ”

Suddenly, Yan Chenghua's voice came up from downstairs.

Yan Ziqi replied and went downstairs.

Today's people are all Yan Chenghua's brothers, dragging their families with their mouths, and more than a dozen people are sitting around a large round table to eat and drink.

"Happy New Year, everyone, it's hard to get together this year, let's have a good time. ”

"Yes, yes, Happy Chinese New Year, our family hasn't been together for a long time. ”

"Yes~ Time flies so fast, you see, some of our brothers are grandfathers. ”

There are six brothers in the Yan family, the eldest is sixty years old, he is the age of being a grandfather, Yan Chenghua is the fifth, although he is still early to be promoted, but it should not be a problem to be an old father-in-law.

Among the children of the Yan brothers, only Yan Zi is still single.

Having said this, Yan Chenghua's eldest brother Yan Chengjun suddenly turned his gaze to Yan Ziqi, he looked at her with a smile and asked: "Period, it's been another year, according to the old people's algorithm, you will be 24 years old, think about your aunt when she was 24 years old, the second child of our family came out." ”

The old man always likes to say that he is older, and he is only 22 years old this year, where did he come from 24, even if he is really 24, in this era when late marriage and late childbearing have long become a habit, she is still young.

When Yan Chengjun was talking, Yan Ziqi was bowing her head to send a message to Ji Hangcheng, she wanted to send him a happy New Year, but unfortunately, she was still lying quietly in his blacklist.

"Period?"

"Period, what are you doing? Your uncle doesn't pay attention to your conversation, is the mobile phone so fun? Look at your young people now. ”

As soon as I heard this scathing voice, I knew that the person who spoke was Fan Zhen, Yan Ziqi's aunt.

She didn't like her husband's niece since she was a child, she gave birth to a foxy look, why is she so beautiful, is she trying to seduce a man?

Fan Zhen looked at her 180-pound daughter sitting next to her, with a fat head and big ears, she felt that this was what a woman should look like.

Is it?heh~ Who knows.

Yan Ziqi has always ignored her aunt, she used to like to bully herself, so she didn't respect her very much.

Yan Ziqi stuffed his mobile phone into his pocket, picked up the chopsticks and picked up the vegetables casually, and didn't take Fan Zhen in his eyes at all.

"You... You wild..."

Before Fan Zhen's words could be spoken, Yan Chenghua's cup was sent over, and I saw him looking at his sister-in-law without humility or arrogance, and responded: "How about the period, she is my daughter, and it is not the turn of others to say, sister-in-law, this year is Chinese New Year's Eve, don't force me to do anything ugly." ”

As soon as Yan Chenghua finished speaking, everyone present shuddered, and Fan Zhen was even more frightened.

Everyone knows that Yan Chenghua was a mixed society when he was young, and he didn't do anything? Killing people is like killing chickens, and there is no good fruit to eat if you provoke him.

Also, Yan Ziqi is the most taboo for others to call her a "wild seed", but fortunately, Yan Chenghua stopped her, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.

Fan Zhen knew that this was Yan Ziqi's death hole, but just now she was also fast-talking, in short, it was okay, it was okay, there was no danger.

"Okay, okay, it's all a family, but just drink two more glasses, say a few more words happily, don't take it to heart. ”

It was Yan Chenghua's third brother who came out to play the round, Yan Chenghe, a good old man, who has a good personality and is a typical peacemaker.

"Come, cheers, I hope that in the new year, we will all be safe and healthy, and I hope to meet her Prince Charming sooner and be happy. ”

Yan Chenghe specially took Yan Ziqi out to bless him alone, not for anything else, because he knew how much his younger brother Yan Chenghua protected his daughter, and it was better to have more than one thing, so there was no need to stiffen the atmosphere on such a day.

"Thank you, Uncle San. ”

Yan Ziqi is not completely rude, she just has a personality there, I don't offend people if they don't offend me, forgive those who hurt her, she can't do this kind of noble thing.

However, there are always exceptions to everything, and it can be said that Ji Hang's achievements are the exceptions of Yan Zi's period.

The stalemate atmosphere was reversed by Yan Chenghe's words, and finally this meal could be eaten safely.

Just as everyone was sharing their interesting fun, the iron gate in the courtyard suddenly "banged".

"Who~"

Hearing the knock on the door, everyone put down their chopsticks, Yan Chenghua glanced in the direction of the iron door with a pair of eyes, and muttered in his heart: Today is Chinese New Year's Eve, who will come to visit the door at this time?

"That's right, Ah Hua, who is it? ”

Yan Chenghe is also very inexplicable, who will come to someone else's house at this time.

Yan Chenghua shook his head, got up and walked out of the living room, ready to go and find out.

Fan Zhen looked at Yan Chenghua's back and bit her husband's ear in a whisper: "Don't be a usury creditor, it's funny." ”

She really looks at the excitement and doesn't think it's a big deal.

Yan Ziqi glanced at his eldest aunt, got up and followed Yan Chenghua out of the living room.

The iron door was opened, and outside the door stood a man dressed as a noblewoman, dressed in a graceful mink coat, covered in jewels, and carrying a new Chanel baby in her hand, dressed in fragrant sideburns, very luxurious.

"May I ask who you are?"

Yan Chenghua glanced up and down at the noble lady, his eyes were full of surprise, it was obvious that he didn't know this woman.

"I'm looking for Yan Ziqi. ”

The lady glanced at Yan Chenghua, then looked away and said lightly.

"Who are you?"

As soon as Yan Chenghua's voice fell, Yan Ziqi appeared next to him, "Hello, I am." ”

Yan Ziqi reached out to hold Yan Chenghua's arm and responded politely.

Hearing this, the noblewoman looked at Yan Ziqi tightly, and the strange thing was that she didn't say anything, just carried her bag, stepped on the sky, and walked towards the living room with elegant steps.

Seeing this, Yan Chenghua and Yan Ziqi exchanged glances and looked at each other.

The noble lady walked through the courtyard and came to the door of the living room, she ignored the countless eyes in the room, raised her hand and beckoned to Yan Ziqi, "Come, Yan Ziqi, you come here." ”

Yan Ziqi is not clear, so he can only do what the lady said.

She raised her legs and walked towards the living room, followed by Yan Chenghua.

"Hello, who are you? I don't seem to know you. Yan Ziqi came to the noble lady.

"Smack~"

Defenselessly, there was a crisp slap in the air, and the noble lady withdrew her hand from Yan Ziqi's face, then took out a silk handkerchief from her bag and wiped her hands gracefully.

This move caused an uproar among the people present, and everyone exchanged heads and talked about it.

Yan Chenghua stepped forward and was thinking about the theory, but he was stopped by Yan Ziqi.

She intuitively felt that this woman had something to do with Ji Hangcheng, but as soon as the other party spoke, she realized that her intuition was wrong.

"Yan Ziqi, this slap is to teach you how to behave. Have you ever heard a truth, other people's things, don't touch, don't take, let alone delusional, even Xiaofan is my pet, before I discard him, you still don't have to think about anything. ”

Speaking of which, the identity of the noble lady gradually came to light, she is Ruan Bingjie, the female chairman of Hongyuan Group, and the female financier of Lian Xiaofan.

She has been eyeing Yan Ziqi for a long time, at the beginning, Lian Xiaofan lied to her a few times, but she didn't find out, but after a long time, the lie will eventually reveal flaws.

Ruan Bingjie thought that even Xiaofan was really bold, taking her money and sleeping in her bed, but she was thinking about other women, and she quietly ran out to steal food while she wasn't paying attention?

What's the matter? When she's a strong woman, is it an ornament?

Ruan Bingjie naturally would not let Lian Xiaofan go, but before that, she had to teach Yan Ziqi, a little girl who didn't know the height of the sky, a lesson.

"What the fuck are you? My daughter's turn to educate you! Stinky bitch, find you dead. ”

When Yan Chenghua saw his daughter being beaten, his emotions immediately became excited, and he scolded and pulled out a fruit knife from the fruit basket on the coffee table in the living room and clashed at Ruan Bingjie.

"Ah Hua, Ah Hua, calm down. ”

Seeing this, the brothers of the Yan family hurriedly came over to stop it, and everyone pulled Yan Chenghua to prevent him from doing impulsive things.

Yan Ziqi stood in front of Yan Chenghua, and at this time, the left side of her face that was slapped by Ruan Bingjie was full of hot pain.

"I don't understand what you're saying, Lian Xiaofan and I are not the kind of relationship you imagined. ”

Yan Ziqi is telling the truth, she and Lian Xiaofan have always kept a distance, but her truth is a quibble to Ruan Bingjie.

"Heh~ Sure enough, it's a wild seed with a mother and no mother's teaching, how dare you dare to do it, when you kiss me and me with Lian Xiaofan, you should have thought that there would be this day. Today this is a little lesson for you, if you do it again, I will let you know that society is sinister. ”

Ruan Bingjie only cared about herself, and did not take into account the emotional changes of Yan Ziqi at all.

The most gloating person in saying these words was Fan Zhen, she thought that this woman was really sent by God to help her, what she didn't dare to do, others did it for her, hehe, there is a good show to watch.

Yan Ziqi looked at Ruan Bingjie, she listened to every word of what she said just now, at this time she felt that there was a ball of arrogance burning in her chest, and the familiar pain swirled in her brain, and unconsciously, she slowly clenched her fists...

Yan Chenghua scolded behind his back, several brothers of the Yan family competed to persuade each other, Fan Zhen and his daughter's smug laughter and discussions, Ruan Bingjie's ugly words, these voices converged into a force and directly hit Yan Ziqi's heart.

She felt that the "big black dog" had run out again, it was driving her behavior, guiding her emotions, and Yan Ziqi was slowly on the verge of losing control.

The accident happened at this moment, Yan Ziqi turned around and snatched the fruit knife from Yan Chenghua's hand, and stabbed at Ruan Bingjie without saying a word.

"Ah~"

Ruan Bingjie screamed, she subconsciously turned sideways and prepared to flee, and it was precisely because of her action that the fruit knife that was about to stab her in the abdomen was now just lightly slashed across her arm, seeing blood, but it was not fatal.

“...”

Yan Ziqi's action frightened the Yan family present, it is no exaggeration to say that her act just now was murder, if Ruan Bingjie pursues it, then she may face prison.

This is amazing, Yan Chenghua broke free from the confinement of his brothers, he rushed to Yan Ziqi's side with a rolling belt, quickly snatched the knife, hugged her tightly into his arms, and comforted softly: "Period, it's okay, don't be afraid, Dad is here, the sky is falling, Dad is holding it." ”

Yan Chenghua was patient and comforted Yan Ziqi over and over again.

Ruan Bingjie was injured, although it was not fatal, but in the end, it was injured, and with her personality, it was impossible to just forget it.

After a while, a police car appeared in front of Yan's house, and then several policemen took Yan Ziqi back to the police station.

According to China's laws and regulations, a person who causes minor injuries shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not more than three years, short-term detention or controlled release.

So to put it simply, if Ruan Bingjie doesn't withdraw the case, Yan Ziqi will go to prison.

The Yan family is not a big family, it doesn't matter, it's basically a fish on the board, and whatever others say is what it is.

In the police station, Yan Ziqi was temporarily imprisoned, and during this time, the people's police came to ask her if she wanted to find a lawyer to defend her.

Yan Ziqi thought of Ji Hangcheng, she asked the police to help call him, and with the familiar ringtone, she finally heard the voice she had missed for a long time.

"Hey, whoever. ”

"Hello, I'm here from the Dongcheng District Dispatch Office, do you know Yan Ziqi? Now that she is temporarily detained for the crime of intentionally harming others, according to the regulations, she can hire a defense lawyer, can you come over conveniently?"

“...”

The police waited for a long time, but Ji Hangcheng did not respond, he took the phone and glanced at Yan Ziqi.

"Hey~ Are you there?"

The police put down the phone and switched to hands-free, Yan Ziqi stared at the landline with a pair of good-looking apricot eyes, and at that time, she felt that her heart was about to jump out of her throat.

"I don't know, it's inconvenient. ”

After a long time, Ji Hangcheng responded coldly, he didn't know that he only used six words to kick Yan Ziqi into the abyss.

What kind of feeling is that, many years later, Yan Ziqi gave an answer, that is, his heart was like ashes for a moment.

This kind of pain is that she held her blood-drenched sincerity in front of him, and he not only didn't cherish it, but also stepped on it.

In the days when there was no contact, Yan Ziqi was secretly paying attention to everything about Ji Hangcheng, but he was the one who withdrew first, throwing her away from the past, and when love became torturous like this, it was meaningless.

The police closed the phone, and he came to Yan Ziqi, probably because he couldn't bear it, he secretly pointed her out another way, but she didn't seem to react at all, just sat alone in the cold iron window with a smile on the corner of her mouth and silently wept.

Seeing her like this, the police couldn't say anything.

Outside the police station, Yan Chenghua was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, it had been a day, he was looking for relationships everywhere, and wanted people to help Yan Ziqi, but helplessly, those people refused directly when they heard that the other party was Ruan Bingjie of Hongyuan Group.

Yan Chenghua was desperate, he thought, should he just let Yan Ziqi go to prison? Ruan Bingjie just broke a bloody wound in her arm, and his daughter was going to be imprisoned for three years?

No, absolutely not.

Unconsciously, Yan Chenghua came to the bar where Yan Ziqi sang, which was where she worked newly, and by chance, he had heard his daughter mention it, saying that her new boss was very good to her.

So if he knew that Yan Ziqi had happened, would he come forward for them?

Yan Chenghua has been rejected too many times, this is his last chance, although he feels that there is little hope, but he still has to try.

Yan Chenghua thought about it, if he failed, he would kill Ruan Bingjie and exchange his daughter for three years in prison for the life of the dog woman, which was a good deal, as for his own life, it was not worth mentioning compared to Yan Ziqi.

Thinking about it, Yan Chenghua walked into this bar called "First Birthday" with the determination to die.

It's five o'clock in the afternoon, and it's the Spring Festival holiday, the bar is very deserted, and he is lucky to meet the boss at this point.

After a brief exchange with Yan Chenghua, the staff took him to the office on the second floor.

Yan Chenghua walked into the office, there were two people inside, both men and of the same age, so for a while he couldn't tell who was the owner of this bar.

Yan Chenghua licked his dry lips, his red and swollen hands from the frost kept rubbing on his jeans, he looked nervous, and he couldn't speak.

"Hello two bosses, I am Yan Ziqi's father, she is an employee of your bar, my daughter is in a little trouble, I want to ask you to help and save her. ”

Yan Chenghua couldn't tell who was who, so he could only pass by and include both of them.

Just then, a man was about to get up when his thigh was held down by the other hand, and the man next to him stood up for him.

"Hello, uncle, my name is Yu Qing, I am the boss of this place, and I am also Ling Ai's direct leader. ”

This is really a coincidence, before Yan Chenghua appeared, Yu Qing didn't know that Yan Ziqi was actually singing in his friend's bar, it was really dramatic to think about, but he liked this scene arranged by God very much.

"Hello, hello, Boss Yu, please save my daughter. Yan Chenghua prayed in a low voice.

Yu Qing glanced at Yan Chenghua's bare arm, although only part of the tattoo was exposed, he already had a preliminary understanding of this man's character.

I think I was also a very character person when I was young, and I never gave in easily, but now I am willing to be a son of a cow for my daughter.

"Okay, uncle, you speak slowly, I will do my best to help you. ”

Yan Chenghua was grateful, he briefly described what happened on Chinese New Year's Eve yesterday, Yu Qing understood, in fact, this matter is not big, but the other party intends to make a big scene.

"Uncle, I want to ask who the other party is?"

"The other party?"

"Well, it's the person who reported the crime. ”

Yu Qing responded politely.

"I think about it, I think about it. ”

Yan Chenghua stretched out a hand and grabbed it on his bare head, and he thought for a while before he could barely tell Ruan Bingjie's identity.

Hongyuan Group?Ruan Bingjie?

Yu Qing began to recall the information related to this person in her mind, and searched for her intersection.

After a while, Yu Qing said to Yan Chenghua: "Uncle, you go home and rest first, and leave the rest to me." ”

"This..."

"It's okay, don't worry. ”

Yu Qing pushed the gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, he showed a confident look, seeing this, Yan Chenghua didn't say much, said a few words of thanks, said some words of gratitude and left the bar.

As soon as he left, another man on the couch spoke.

"Aqing, you're not kidding, the other party is Ruan Bingjie. ”

In just one sentence, it is a good explanation of the difficulty of this matter.

Yu Qing shook his head and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I'll do it, otherwise I wouldn't have agreed to him just now." ”

"I said, how did you know this Yan Zi period?"

The man was a little curious, he had known Yu Qing for so many years, and he had never seen him take the initiative to be enthusiastic about any woman.

Yu Qing bent down to pick up the mobile phone from the coffee table, and pretended to be inscrutable: "Don't you think she looks like a person?"

"Like a person?"

The man thought about it for a long time, and then he reacted, yes, why didn't he notice it for so long?

"You kid, it's been so long, and your vision hasn't changed. ”

Yu Qing didn't explain much, he felt that he didn't use Yan Ziqi as a stand-in, but it was really because she looked like his deceased wife that he was moved.

So it's really unclear whether he used Yan Ziqi as a stand-in.
