Chapter 12: Tell Me

"Knock knock knock-"

Song Zhenghui anxiously knocked on the door: "Qiu Yiqing, are you at home?"

After a while, Qiu's mother slowly opened the door: "It's Xiaohui, come in, come in, Qiu Yiqing told us that you should go home first and then come over, Auntie is preparing to pick you up." After speaking, he didn't forget to give Qiu Yiqing a look on the side.

Song Zhenghui: "Auntie, I didn't say I was coming? Are my parents here with you? I can't contact them." ”

Qiu's mother didn't seem to hear Song Zhenghui's question, and said in a non-compliant answer: "Xiaohui come in and say, come on, Auntie has made a lot of delicious food for you and Yiqing, congratulations on the end of your high school life!"

I don't know why, Song Zhenghui felt that everyone was a little abnormal today, first in the afternoon, Qiu Yiqing seemed to know that her parents were not at home, to the fact that she couldn't contact her parents, and then to find out that her father had suddenly resigned, and when she met Qiu's mother and Qiu Yiqing, it seemed that something was hiding from her. Thinking of this, she was a little nervous, she was sure that there was no surprise she thought of at all, after all, how could a surprise be so mysterious?

Looking around the three-story villa of Qiu Yiqing's family, Song Zhenghui couldn't hold back any longer, and shouted in panic: "Dad, Mom, are you there? Come out quickly, I don't want to play hide and seek with you." ”

"Auntie, tell me, where are my parents? Why can't they get in touch, you must know something, tell me? Why did my dad leave his job suddenly? Why didn't anyone answer their phones? Tell me everything you know..." Song Zhenghui said everything she wanted to ask, she was so nervous that she kept asking and repeating without noticing.

Qiu's mother picked her fingers, and she stammered: "Xiaohui, your parents have been abroad for a few days for some things, let's take care of you first, I originally asked Yiqing to bring you back after the exam, this stinky boy is disobedient." ”

Song Zhenghui: "Why are they going abroad? Why don't they tell me when they go abroad, I have a mobile phone? Auntie, can you contact them?"

Qiu's mother really wanted to pump herself in her heart, and she was going to say a good job, but now she met Xiaohui but didn't know where to start: "Xiaohui, they are in a hurry, and I can't contact them, but don't worry, uncles and aunts will treat you like your parents." You sit down and take a break, don't get excited. ”

Song Zhenghui's eyes were red from crying, and she sat on the ground weakly, she didn't know why her parents suddenly went abroad and said goodbye, is it so difficult to make a phone call to report safety abroad? Why is there no shortage of things from her parents at home? Why does Qiu Yiqing's family know where her parents are? The relationship between the two families is indeed not bad, both parents are in the same company, but they are not familiar with anything and tell others without telling their daughter? Someone must be lying.

"Auntie, please, tell me, why did my dad leave? You are all in the same company, you must be clear, don't hide it from me, I have already called to the company. Song Zhenghui still didn't give up on getting to the bottom of it.

Qiu's mother: "Xiaohui, business transfers are normal, your father should have a better choice, I don't know very well." ”

"No, my dad will definitely ask my opinion on such a big matter, no, you must be lying to me..."Song Zhenghui couldn't believe how her dear, admired, and respected parents could disappear so quietly and leave themselves to others.

"Qiu Yiqing, you must know right? You all know that my parents are not at home, you must know their news, can you tell me?" For Qiu's mother, Song Zhenghui turned to Qiu Yiqing, who was standing on the side, waiting for his answer with anticipation.

Different from the usual ridicule, Qiu Yiqing has been avoiding her eyes: "Song Zhenghui, don't worry, uncles and aunts are such a big person, isn't it normal to go abroad on a business trip?"

Song Zhenghui's eyes widened and looked incredulously: "How can there be such a coincidence, two people go on a business trip together, go abroad together?

Qiu Yiqing touched his nose and pondered, it was obviously impossible for his father to ask him to take Song Zhenghui home with him, but now he is fine, he hasn't come back from overtime, how did he and his mother convince her...

"Qiu Yiqing, please, please tell me, I just want to know where my parents have gone, why don't you say it? No matter where they go, I have the right to know as their daughter. Song Zhenghui's eyes were hung with crystal clear tears, her whole body was twitching and trembling, and her eyes were red because of wiping her tears, which made people feel distressed.

Qiu Yiqing's heart seemed to be stabbed by something.

"Please, I know you're hiding from me, I'm not going to do anything drastic, just tell me. Song Zhenghui was afraid that he wouldn't believe it, so he knelt on the ground, crawled to Qiu Yiqing's leg on his knees, grabbed his trouser leg and shook it.

"Xiaohui, hurry up, be good, we didn't hide it from you, don't think about it, get up quickly. Qiu's mother didn't know what to say, so she pulled Song Zhenghui vigorously, after all, she promised the old Song couple that she would treat Xiaohui as her own daughter, how could she abuse the child like this on the first day.

Qiu Yiqing lowered his head and stared at her who was still trying to hold back her crying, and couldn't help but feel sour, what a proud Song Zhenghui, now crying and kneeling and begging, what good is it for her to hide the facts, one day she will know the truth of the matter...

"Song Zhenghui, you promise me that you will be calm. Qiu Yiqing squatted down and held her shoulders with both hands to confirm seriously.

"Okay, I will, I will, where are my parents? Song Zhenghui felt that she had no ability to think, so she could only hold her breath.

"Uncle and aunt... They... You have been sentenced for some things, don't worry, ten years in prison, my parents will take care of you during this time, you can rest assured. ”

Qiu Yiqing's words were like a thunderclap, Song Zhenghui's head was buzzing, and the tears that were about to dry up in his eyes overflowed again, and his already kneeling body was completely paralyzed, all supported by Qiu Yiqing.

"How could it be, how could it be, no, it must be a mistake, it must be a misunderstanding..."She couldn't think of how her parents, who had always been conscientious, responsible, rigorous and conscientious, could be sentenced.

"Ding-" Song Zhenghui's mobile phone rang.
