Xu Youran and Qin Lie sat aside, with a Qin Chu in between.

I thought that the uncle and nephew who got close would have all kinds of smiling connotations, but the two were surprisingly quiet.

Second Uncle Qin still opened his mouth, but the object of the chat became Xu Youran.

"You Ran, how did you meet Hanshan?"

Xu Youran instinctively wanted to answer, just opened his mouth, suddenly realized something, closed his lips again, and turned to Qin Chu with some surprise.

Qin Chu received her signal, smiled, and didn't make a sound.

After not hearing an answer for a long time, Second Uncle Qin patted his head with some hindsight, "Ah Chu is not wrong, our Qin family's memory is really not very good, then Ah Chu, how did you and Hanshan meet?"

Qin Chu secretly scolded Qin Lie in his heart for being cunning, but on the surface, he still turned to Xu Youran with a smile.

But it was impossible for Xu Youran to open his mouth to prompt, so the two of them just stared at each other.

To be honest, Xu Youran really couldn't understand why Qin Chu had just said that Ji Hanshan was his friend.

After all, this kind of lie, even if Ji Hanshan doesn't tell the truth, Second Uncle Qin can see it.

Ji Hanshan has only come to the capital from abroad in recent years, and Qin Chu has been staying in City A because of his place of work, one south and one north, it is possible to say that they have met, but if you want to know each other, it is a little difficult for Ji Hanshan's class to know Qin Chu, unless Ji Hanshan is attending with his boss Qin Lie, but once Qin Lie is present, how can he not know the beginning and end of the acquaintance between the two?

Presumably Second Uncle Qin also understands this truth, but he doesn't pick on it, and Qin Chu naturally can't slap himself in the face.

Xu Youran sympathized with Qin Chuyi in his heart, and on the other hand, he was a little curious about how he would step down his steps.

Under the expectant gaze of the left and right sides, I saw that Qin Chu was still calm.

"I just met. ”

Second Uncle Qin was stunned for half a second, "Just ...... Just?"

Qin Chu nodded solemnly, "Just now I asked him to help take care of Ye Tianwang's daughter, he did a good job, the little girl wetted the bed, and he also helped wash the sheets, second uncle, your subordinate looks quite reliable, I don't know if you are willing to cut love?"

Because there was Qin Chu in the middle, Xu Youran turned his head slightly to see that Second Uncle Qin's eyes exuded the loving light of the elders looking at the juniors, as if he really believed Qin Chu's words.

Second Uncle Qin didn't ask about it, but even if he did, Xu Youran believed that Qin Chu had the ability to bring the lie back.

Qin Chu didn't let the second uncle send them back to their home in Dongcheng District, and the car drove to the main entrance of the Shouce Building according to his instructions.

The two got out of the car one after the other, Qin Chu and Xu Youran stood on the side of the road and smiled and waved goodbye like tool men.

After the rear of the car flicked into the traffic and could no longer be seen, Qin Chu instantly put away all his laughter and walked quickly into the door.

Qin Chu had a lot of cars, and there was just one parked in the underground parking lot, so Xu Youran followed Qin Chu all the way to the parking lot.

Along the way, Xu Youran kept the quiet he should have.

Until she got into Qin Chu's car, she didn't make a sound, because she noticed that Qin Chu's face was not good, so she almost wrote the words "bad mood" on her face.

Just waited for Xu Youran to put on her seat belt, but she didn't hear the sound of the car engine for a long time, she frowned and looked at Qin Chu in confusion.

She knew that Qin Chu could see her gaze and understood what she meant.

"Your former friend. He spoke very slowly, and the speed at which he moved his gaze was also very slow, "Ji Hanshan, is it the second uncle's person?"

Xu Youran knew what Qin Chu meant, and although he was not happy with his attitude, he still opened his mouth to explain today's situation.

At the end, she also added, "I met him when I was in high school abroad, and he has lived abroad since he was a child, and I don't think he should know about it." ”

Xu Youran's subconscious still believed that Ji Hanshan was not Qin Lie's eyeliner beside her, but it was not as simple as the two of them knew each other.

If Ji Hanshan was really Qin Lie's eyeliner, then Ji Hanshan should not appear at the birthday banquet today, so that his relationship with Qin Lie would not be known.

She felt that Qin Chu should also be able to understand this, and of course it was not ruled out that they were in danger, but it was too risky to do so, and it might not have an effect, and it would even make her and Qin Chu wary of each other early.

"How many years have you graduated from high school, and after all these years, you are still in touch?"

"What?"

"I said you still have contact after so many years?" Qin Chu hooked the corners of his lips, and his expression seemed to have caught evidence of his wife's affair.

There were so many points in her words, and he actually only paid attention to this.

Xu Youran glared at him speechlessly, took a deep breath to calm his speechless mood, and then explained, "I met it last time I went back to school to defend. ”

Qin Chu's eyes were dark and uncertain, and although he nodded, he still seemed to doubt Ji Hanshan's motives.

"Xu Youran, you should be able to tell the situation clearly, right?" he glanced at her tentatively, "At this time, you should keep your distance from him, even if he is not the second uncle's person now, I can't guarantee what the second uncle will really do after knowing your relationship with him." ”

"Yes. ”

I don't know if it's Xu Youran's delusion, she feels that after Qin Chu listened to her answer, his expression seemed to be much more relaxed?

Qin Chu turned the car key, and the engine began to operate.

After returning to the room, Xu Youran was a little worried about Xue Wei after taking a shower, but he was worried about Qin Chu's words.

But thinking that it was inconvenient for her to come forward, she indirectly asked Xiang Qin to contact Ji Hanshan in her own name.

Five minutes later, Xiang Qin called and said that no one answered.

Perhaps because he was too worried that something would happen to Xue Wei, Xu Youran didn't sleep much that night.

As Qin Chu said, Ji Hanshan's situation is special, he is not only Qin Lie's subordinate, but the time point of his appearance happens to be this year, if Ji Hanshan is really the other party's eyeliner, then Xue Wei will also become Ji Hanshan's eyeliner by her side.

Xu Youran has always been puzzled by Xue Wei's choice to succumb to the small restaurant of Food, although it is indeed possible that Xue Wei is a favor to repay Ji Hanshan, but such a TV series-like plot really appears in real life, which reduces the credibility.

But once Xue Wei is Ji Hanshan's eyeliner by her side, then everything that is unreasonable makes sense.

At five o'clock in the morning, Xu Youran finally fell asleep, but she felt that she had not slept long before she was woken up by a phone call.

Looking at the time, it was already past lunchtime.

The call was from Xiang Qin, and before Xu Youran could say a word, he heard a frightened female voice coming from the earpiece.

"The owner...... Manager Xue her. ”

As soon as he heard this name, Xu Youran was completely energetic, "What's wrong with Manager Xue?"

In more than ten seconds, countless possibilities flashed through Xu Youran's mind, and only one guess didn't even appear in her head.

She ...... He's dead. ”

This is not just the spirit, Xu Youran's eyes widened, she suspected that she had heard it wrong, or today was April Fool's Day, she was stunned for half a second and laughed panickedly, "Xiang Qin, this kind of thing can't be a joke." ”

"It's true. ”

Perhaps it was the heavy rain in the afternoon, and the already potholed yellow mud road became even more muddy.

The rain still had no intention of stopping, and the wipers began to work without sleep.

Xu Youran had never driven a car for such a long time, and although comfort was usually more important when she bought a car, the road outside was not as smooth and easy to drive as in the city.

At first, he drove to Qin, but he couldn't hold it up after driving for more than two hours for a long distance, and then he changed to Xu Youran.

This was the first time they had come to Xue Wei's hometown to attend her funeral.

Xue Wei left in a quiet way, overdosed on sleeping pills, so quiet that no one knew why she wanted to go down this path.

Xue Wei's younger brother left three years ago, and the Xue family finally recovered, but now that the only daughter is gone, the already thin bodies of the Xue family are even heavier.

In the end, almost all the funeral matters were handled by Ji Hanshan alone.

Most of the people who came to the funeral were relatives and friends of the Xue family, so no one knew who Ji Hanshan was, but when they saw him dressed brightly and talked extraordinarily, they thought he was Xue Wei's boyfriend.

From beginning to end, Ji Hanshan did not explain, and at that moment it seemed that Xue Wei's boyfriend had really become Xue Wei's boyfriend to handle the funeral and settle the family for her.

Xu Youran's mood was not as heavy as Ji Hanshan, she just sighed and felt a little pity, and some felt that the world was impermanent, Xue Wei was still standing in front of her alive a few days ago to borrow money from her.

Of course, it is naturally impossible for Xu Youran to ask this poor old couple for the money.

It's just that she doesn't quite understand why Xue Wei would rather give up his life than ask her and Ji Hanshan for help, in her opinion, no matter how big the amount of money is, as long as Xue Wei is willing, I believe she can pay it back.

In the dark, she felt that Ji Hanshan might know something.

According to the custom of Xue Wei's hometown, after his death, the funeral will be held for three days, and it will not be put into a coffin until the last day before he can be put in a coffin and taken to the funeral home for cremation, and he has to lie on a wooden bed in the mourning hall for the first two days.

The weather was hot, and I was worried that the corpse would soon stink, so the air conditioner in the mourning hall was turned down very low.

The people who guarded the spirit all wore padded jackets, with the exception of Xu Youran, Ji Hanshan, and Xiang Qin.

Because they didn't even have any clothes, let alone thick coats.

Xu Youran's nose was so cold that Ji Hanshan finally had a hint of reaction, "Youran, let's go, your kindness Ah Wei has already remembered." ”

"Manager Xue has helped me so much. She glanced at the bulge on the wooden bed that was covered by a heavy quilt, "I want to send her off in her last moments." ”

Ji Hanshan didn't persuade her too much, he was cold and tired, but more sad.

Although Xu Youran decided to stay until the third day, it did not mean that she would work with Ji Hanshan to guard Xue Wei's spirit.

In the past two days, Ji Hanshan has not closed his eyes for two days and two nights.

Even Xue Wei's eldest cousin couldn't stand it anymore and urged Ji Hanshan to rest.

Although he was rejected, he eventually got into bed because he was too tired and fainted.

Everyone was very busy at this time, so Xu Youran and Xiang Qin came over to take care of him.

Xu Youran asked Xiang Qin to find someone to ask for a piece of chocolate, or some high-calorie ones that can replenish people's strength.

When they met again, she always felt that Ji Hanshan had become different from before, and had become gentle and understanding.

But at this moment, I realized that Ji Hanshan was still the stubborn Sparker she knew seven or eight years ago.

Ji Hanshan's eyelids twitched a few times, and his consciousness gradually became clearer, he seemed to have lost seven souls in three souls, and his eyes looked at the ceiling with a dull gaze, "She left us a letter, Xu Youran, it was a ......" He bit his lower lip tightly, his emotions seemed to be about to collapse but he tightened the string again, "A suicide note." ”
