This New Year's eve was like a dream. In a small mountain village far from the city, I spent a few days with my family. Dad, Mom, scumbag, as always. Zhong Nan also inexplicably opened the gobble-style pampering. This life is even happy in the seasoning.

On the morning of the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, return to the city. My aunt was reluctant to prepare large bags of local products, vegetables, and eggs, and was eager to prepare all their food for the year. The adults and children in the village came and said goodbye lively.

Yu Xiuxiu did not find the Tang family.

The Tang family hasn't looked for anything in the past few days, and Yu Xiuxiu hasn't paid attention to them. When she returned to Shencheng, she heard the gossip of the Tang family from Miao Rui's mouth - she left in a hurry on the first day of the Lunar New Year, as if it was Wei Siliang's miscarriage.

The reservoir didn't have time to go, and the Guanyin Temple didn't go to burn incense. Come for nothing.

Yu Xiuxiu sighed and left the matter behind.

Since he knew that Huo Zhongnan had someone in his heart, Yu Xiuxiu had a sense of crisis and often secretly observed him. But I didn't find out that he had contact with the girl, and I became more and more puzzled.

couldn't hold back, she contacted Zhong Lin.

"Who is that girl Zhong Nan likes?"

Zhong Lin was confused: "I don't know." Don't talk about girls around you, sir, there are not a single female pigs!"

Who do you scold?

Isn't she a woman?

Yu Xiuxiu: "He said that he had someone in his heart. ”

Zhong Lin: "Someone in my heart? My eldest lady, isn't that you?"

“...... Don't fool me, you know for sure. ”

Zhong Lin sighed.

If he had a way to get into Mr.'s heart, Mr.'s money would have already gone into his bank card.

"I really don't know. However, I heard him talk about it, and he was looking for a girl. ”

"Where is she?"

Zhong Lin was embarrassed to death, "If I knew where she was, would I still be here to hang out with you?" At least, you don't have to worry about growing sweet potatoes for the rest of your life, right?

"You don't even know who it will be?

Yu Xiu Xiu was puzzled.

Well, I've got to figure out a way...... Either the duck will fly if it is not cooked.

......

Huo Zhongnan sat on a single sofa in his study, holding a copy of Freud's "The Interpretation of Dreams" in his hand. The book had been turned over many times, it was not new, it was creased, it was worn, but he read it very carefully.

Zhong Lin knocked lightly on the door, "Mr. Huo, Miss Ding is here." ”

Huo Zhongnan raised his eyelids, his gaze a little impatient.

"Who?"

"Miss Ding, Miss Ding Qufeng Ding. ”

Huo Zhongnan didn't sleep well last night. Every night he came back from Yujia Village, he didn't sleep well. The New Year's atmosphere has not yet passed, but he has been locked up at home for the past two days, and he doesn't want to see anyone at all.

Zhong Lin looked at him, "Why don't I ask her to come back another day?"

"No, I don't. Huo Zhongnan put down the book and returned to her place, "Let her wait." ”

Ding Qufeng is the daughter of Ding Yuejin and Bi Hongye.

She is the same age as Huo Zhongnan, she has known each other since she was a child, and she has been classmates for nine years from kindergarten to junior high school. was in the same school in high school, and it wasn't until Ding Qufeng went abroad to study in college that his life had less intersection since then.

However, this does not mean that the two people have a good relationship.

Ding Qufeng did not inherit any artistic genes from Bi Hongye, so much like Ding Yuejin. Capable and shrewd, but in life he is a rough line, not so emotional and meticulous, like a boy. When she was a child, because Huo Zhongnan didn't play with her, she used her hands and was beaten by Ding Yuejin many times. It can be said that she was one of the few girls in the school who was not infatuated with Huo Zhongnan at that time, and even disliked him when she talked about it.

Zhong Lin has seen Ding Qufeng a few times, and he used to joke with her casually, and he could greet her like a man, but Ding Qufeng, who returned to China this time, has obviously changed.

has a capable short hair, a small suit supporting a good figure, a typical urban elite beauty, but she has lost a lot, her face is dignified, and it is difficult to hide her sadness.

Zhong Lin couldn't make a joke.

"Miss Ding, you wait, Mr. will come down immediately. ”

"Thank you. Ding Qufeng was very patient, and gently took a sip of the tea made by the housekeeper, "I haven't seen it for many years." He's changed a lot?"

Zhong Lin smiled, "It hasn't changed." ”

"Don't you have a girl you like?"

Zhong Lin was stunned.

"This ...... I don't quite know. Zhong Lin replied tactfully and officially, "I don't want to ask about Mr.'s private affairs." ”

Ding Qufeng nodded, "It seems that my mother is talking nonsense." Every man can have a girlfriend, but Huo Zhongnan can't. Even if there is, it can probably only be a boyfriend. ”

She glanced at Zhong Lin.

Zhong Lin: ......

"You're here to talk about this?" Huo Zhongnan walked down the stairs expressionlessly and sat opposite Ding Qufeng, "Say it." ”

"Sure enough, it hasn't changed. Ding Qufeng raised his eyebrows, "Then I'll say it directly." I want to know about my dad and my mom. ”

"They didn't tell you?"

"I can't see my mom. Ding Qufeng was silent for a moment, "Everyone has a different statement. I'd like to hear what you have to say. ”

Huo Zhongnan looked at her silently.

Ding Qufeng: "Anyone can have a position. You're the only one who doesn't. ”

"I don't have a position and I don't want to get involved. Huo Zhongnan's voice was calm, "Adults, they should be responsible for their words and deeds." You go back. Don't look for me. ”

Ding Qufeng's face slowly sank.

Still hasn't changed at all, cold, distant, and unsentimental. She didn't say anything, and he knew she had something to ask him.

After this incident, the Ding family is now very annoyed. Ding Yuejin came to drink every day behind closed doors, drunk from morning to night, and his work and life were a mess. Bi Hongye was in the detention center, and she couldn't even see her face before the trial. The lawyer said that she was very nice and calm. However, how can her daughter, who is at ease, feel good and calm?

She had to do something.

also knew that Huo Zhongnan had a way.

But-Huo Zhongnan refused without hesitation.

Mom said that the girl he knew was like sunshine shining into his life, making him warm like a normal person...... It turned out that no, he was not human.

"My mother left all her paintings to the girl named Yu Xiuxiu. Ding Qufeng said very slowly, "I know my mother's temperament best. An artist's stinky fault, emotional. The paintings in her eyes have only value, no price. Give someone such a valuable thing without consulting me. You say me, what should I do?"

Huo Zhongnan's face was expressionless.

"That's her painting, not yours. ”

“......”

Ding Qufeng was dumbfounded.

"What about my dad, aren't you going to care?" After a moment, Ding Qufeng found a voice, "Huo Zhongnan, back then, when your parents left, my dad didn't pick on him, and you want to give up on him?"

......

Yu Xiuxiu has already gone to work.

On the way to meet the customer with Xie Mille, she received a call from Ding Qufeng.

Hearing the other party's displeasure, Yu Xiuxiu hurriedly explained.

"Miss Ding, I know the price of those paintings. If it's useless, I'm definitely not going to be cheeky enough to take it. I thought, it must be a spur of the moment that Mr. Momiji, when her affairs are clear, I will go to meet her, and I will thank you in person and return it to you when the time comes. ”

There is a high probability that the death penalty will be in this case.

When you have eyebrows and can see your family, the verdict will come down.

Ding Qufeng said coldly: "Miss Yu, don't be polite. My mom said it, and that's yours. Our family is not short of this money. When is the right time, let's meet and talk face-to-face. ”

Yu Xiuxiu: "...... Okay. ”

Ding Qufeng was silent for a moment, "Afternoon." ”

Yu Xiuxiu glanced at Xie Mile, "That will have to be later." After 5 o'clock, is that okay?"

"Yes. ”

......

hung up the phone, and Yu Xiu couldn't calm down for a long time.

Xie Mille, a little money fan, couldn't give her any useful advice, she thought about it and sent a message to Huo Zhongnan.

"Zhong Nan, Mr. Momiji's painting, do you think I should take it?"

Call him by name and surname? Huo Zhongnan looked at his mobile phone and furrowed his brows. From that drunken night onwards, she rarely called her brother again. Do you want to draw a line, or do you want to go back to the city and become alienated with him?

Huo Zhongnan rubbed his temples, and there was an indescribable sleepiness. I wanted to squint for a while, looking at the news, and inexplicably thought of the few days in Yujia Village, as well as the night of the power outage, the drunken girl with a red face. He suddenly lost his sleepiness.

"Why don't you call me brother?"

“...... Brother, I'm asking you to draw. ”

Huo Zhongnan thought for a moment: "If she gives it to you, it's yours." There are formalities and it is a gift in the legal sense. ”

"But Mr. Momiji has a daughter. I take other people's property for nothing...... Isn't that okay?"

Huo Zhongnan asked, "Do you like those paintings?"

“...... Like. ”

"Then take it. ”

“......”

In her eyes, those paintings only have value, not price. Huo Zhongnan borrowed Ding Qufeng's original words and said: "These paintings are like her children." What kind of family do you say parents entrust their children to, without much deliberation?"

Yu Xiuxiu: "I understand. ”

What does this little fool understand?

Huo Zhongnan waited for a long time, didn't wait for the next step, put down his phone, and let Zhong Lin come in.

"About Wu Liang. ”

Zhong Lin: "???"

He was a little strange, "Sir, didn't you say that he was useless and wouldn't help your condition?"

Huo Zhongnan didn't look at him, and there was no expression on his face, "I just want to see him talk serious nonsense, can't you?"

“...... Yes, sir. ”

It's not enough, it's just too good, sir.

Zhong Lin suddenly felt that Wu Liang was a little pitiful, a psychiatrist, and became a chatter-

"Zhong Lin!" Huo Zhongnan stopped him: "Find out Quan Shaoteng's business card and give it to me." ”

“？？？”

Zhong Lin suddenly found himself more pitiful.

"Sir, why are you looking for that psychopath?"

"Look for him to do some research. What are you afraid of?"

......

------Off topic------

Yu Xiuxiu: A new wave of stories is about to start, and I still haven't caught up with my brother, tsk, the means don't work~ It seems that I still have to think of ideas and settle down!
