was at a stalemate, and suddenly saw a happy look on Uncle Wang's face, and said loudly: "Young Master, you're back!"

Late Qiu's heart tightened, and at first he thought that Uncle Wang was cheating, but the look on his face did not look like a disguise, so he slowly turned his head.

In the living room downstairs, standing in the middle, the noble and cold young man who was frowning and looking up at her was not Qin Fengyan?

She was condescending, and he looked up, separated by a story and a distance from the end of the world.

Her gaze looked deep into his eyes, trying to dig out some hidden thoughts, but she soon found that his gaze was never the same as the first time, and no one could easily glimpse the mystery.

Forever as first seen.

Such as when he was fourteen years old.

That year, Wang Xiaolei took her to marry into the Qin family, and her stepfather Qin Zhiyi led her to visit the Qin family's garden, and when her eyes touched Qin Fengyan, who was standing in the shade of a tree reading a book, she was instantly shocked.

The sunset is falling, Qin Fengyan stands under the tree, eighteen years old, his black hair is like ink, the outline of his facial features is perfect like a jade carving, a pair of eyes, like a still water, jasper shines, rippling waves, every eye is a beautiful scenery, every eye is a swaying light and shadow, but the still water gives birth to a faint coolness, which makes people yearn for and desire, but it cannot be easily touched, for fear that the warmth of the fireworks in the red dust will desecrate the moist and clear that is difficult to find in the world.

With just one glance, she heard the sound of her heart beating violently, and then, very clearly, watched herself slowly sink until she was hopeless.

Hopelessly, for such a moment, her heart struggled with doubt and longing, he looked so calm, so composed, so as always, if a person really did something bad, would he do it like him, and still maintain a calm gaze?

Oh no.

Others may not be able to do it, but he can.

She remembers.

Back then, she loved Qin Fengyan hopelessly, but Qin Fengyan didn't love her.

Before she entered the Qin family, Qin Fengyan already had a very good girlfriend, Leng Yingzi.

Leng Yingzi was born in a famous family, with a clear temperament, snowy skin and moon appearance, and is the most beautiful water hibiscus in high society.

She and Qin Fengyan are a perfect match, and they are also the golden boy and girl in the eyes of everyone.

No one ever doubted that they would break up, just as they never doubted that Qin Fengyan would become the heir of the Zhuo Group.

However, the accident still happened, a sudden family change, the old lady Qin was his least favorite second son Qin Zhichu set aside his rights on the board of directors, and Qin Fengyan, the heir cultivated by him, also fell from the stars to the frustrated boy who no one cared about.

Leng Yingzi proposed to Qin Fengyan to break up at that time, and the reason was very simple: she only dated men who were worthy of her, and Qin Fengyan who had lost the Zhuo Group was no longer qualified.

Those days were very dark, and the Qin family was shrouded in a layer of haze, and everyone was cautious.

Especially Qin Fengyan, as if he had changed as a different person, he was depressed and went to bars all day long to drink.

She was very worried, and silently followed him every day, and after many attempts of persuasion failed, she could only watch him drink the wine as if it were plain water. It wasn't until the bar closed that she helped the drunk Qin Fengyan and left step by step.

Afraid that Grandpa Qin would be so sad to see his grandson, he didn't dare to take him home in late autumn, so he had to help him to his private villa.

Qin Fengyan, who was drunk, often vomited all over his body, and every time he was carefully sorted out for him in late autumn.

Qin Fengyan, who was drunk, was often delirious, and often called Leng Yingzi's name in drunken dreams.

Once, she couldn't stand it anymore, snatched the red wine from Qin Fengyan's hand, threw herself into his arms, and cried heartbreakingly: "Brother Fengyan, don't be like this, okay, I'm so sad if you're like this." ”

"Silly girl, what are you crying about, don't worry, I won't always practice myself, soon, I will make everyone who betrayed me regret it. ”

When he said this, his eyes were calm, and he was like this day.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for the situation to change, when she came home from school that day, she saw a lot of black-headed cars parked in the garden, many strange uncles discussing something with Qin Fengyan in the living room, Grandpa Qin sat on the side, didn't say anything, just looked at Qin Fengyan proudly.

In the next few days, the atmosphere at home became very eerie, and there was a faint depression of mountain rain coming and wind filling the building.

Sure enough, a week later, Qin Zhichu was arrested by the police on suspicion of bribing high-ranking officials and was forced to leave the board of directors.

She doesn't understand the things in the mall, and she doesn't understand those deceitful conspiracies, but once, she was playing in her mother's room, and as soon as her stepfather Qin Zhiyi entered the door, he shouted loudly, regardless of whether there was one more person in the room: "The old man is really ruthless, in order to give Qin Feng the right way, he doesn't even care about his flesh and blood affection, the second brother is a thousand mistakes, and he is also his son, as for killing them all like this?"

I remember that her mother Ling Ruolei nervously closed the door at that time: "Shhh, be quiet, Dad has been sad about your second brother's affairs in the past two days, if he hears this, it will be terrible." ”

"Hmph!" Qin Zhiyi ignored it and continued to complain: "Qin Fengyan This kid is really scary, at a young age, the city government is so deep, I saw him drinking every day in the past few months, I was really worried that he wouldn't be able to think about it, but I didn't expect it to be all acting, and the second brother couldn't be guarded against it with one trick, but now it's okay, not only the second brother, but also those who were hiding in the dark to help the second brother were all arrested by him, no wonder my dad likes him so much, it turns out that there is an ancestor, there must be a grandson." ”

Wang Xiaolei frowned: "What's wrong with you today?

Qin Zhiyi said angrily: "Today, the old man held a board meeting and announced in public that Qin Fengyan would serve as the chief executive officer of the group. Heh, it's really not worth it to think about it, I have worked hard for the company for so many years, and I was only given an assistant general manager, and Qin Fengyan was able to climb on top of me not long after he graduated. Don't say that the second brother is not convinced, I am not convinced. ”

Wang Xiaolei reminded again: "Tell you to be quiet, but your voice is getting louder and louder, your second brother is to blame, and he wants to set up the old man before the fire arrives, I think the old man sent him to the police station just to scare him, and he didn't plan to really let him go to prison, like you said, after all, he is his own son, can he really bear to watch him go to prison?"

"Others may not be able to bear it, but my father, hmph, has his precious grandson in his eyes, and he wants to send us all to prison!"

The stepfather's dissatisfaction with Qin Fengyan was like a thorn that pierced Late Autumn's heart fiercely, which was very painful and uncomfortable.

"Dad, Mom, you talk slowly, I'll go back to the room first. She had to leave before her stepfather could say more things that upset her. No matter what her stepfather says, she is only willing to believe what her mother says, and the second uncle is to blame, whether he will go to prison or not, it has nothing to do with her Fengyan brother.

However, she happened to think of his drunken eyes when he was drunk every night and no one was there in private, and she was still calm and indifferent, and she was a little uneasy unconsciously.

One so moment.

He Wanqiu stood up straight, slowly went downstairs, and approached Qin Fengyan step by step.

He was still standing there, not in a hurry to meet him, he was always like this, far away from the hustle and bustle of the crowd, with an aura around him that could not be insulted or approached, and people were accustomed to standing at a suitable distance with a fearful attitude, and casting looking up at him.

She also looked up to him, only because she was ignorant and fearless, so she would be so cheeky and try her best to approach, since the mountain does not come to me, then I will come to the mountain.

Looking back, it seems to be a matter of the previous life, how innocent and bold she was at that time, and how willful and reckless, she fell in love with him, so she wanted to show him all her enthusiasm, and saw that he had failed both in career and love, she was cheeky and tired of being by his side and wanted to comfort him, and even chased him all over the world, he refused at first, and then was silent, and finally, I don't remember when it started, she could be close to him, unscrupulously enjoying his breath, admiring, she became the hostess of this villa。 Actually, it's not a hostess, I still remember that Qin Fengyan just threw the key in front of her casually that day, with a faint expression: "This is the key to the villa, you can go if you want." ”

A light sentence made her excited for a week, and after that, she came every day. Qin Fengyan is very busy, she spends a long time working almost every day, and at that time she was in high school, because she has a surprisingly good memory and a very high IQ, so it is easy to get good grades in reading, and it is very easy to get high school in the United States, so she has a lot of time to do what she likes to do, so she started to learn cooking on a whim, doesn't it mean that if you want to keep a man's heart, you must first keep his stomach?

That afternoon, she learned to cook in the kitchen, the oil pot somehow burned, in fact, as long as the lid of the pot was fastened, the fire would naturally go out, but at that time she was stunned, just thinking about using water to extinguish the fire, one carelessly, took the wrong wine, the flames suddenly rushed up, how can not be controlled.

When Qin Fengyan arrived from the company, the fire brigade had already extinguished the fire, she held a stack of documents and smirked at him with a dark face: "It's okay, it's okay, I rescued your documents." ”

The firefighters sighed on the side: "Mr. Qin, your girlfriend is so scary, the fire is so big, you dare to rush in again, just for these documents, it's incredible." ”

After Qin Fengyan listened to that person's words, his face was actually darker than hers, he glanced at her coldly, turned around and left.

For the next week, he ignored her, as if he was very angry with her, and in desperation, she had to be cheeky and laugh and moan all day long.

Finally, he couldn't stand being pestered by her, and handed her a supplementary card angrily and funny: "The house needs to be renovated, go buy some furniture you like." ”

She was dumbfounded on the spot, not believing that such happiness would belong to her, so she took her credit card in a daze and stood in the garden for a long time.

Was that the beginning? She thought of herself as the mistress of the house, because she had set it up with her own hands.

In addition to these, this room has many fond memories of her.

Thinking of this, Wanqiu couldn't bear to doubt him anymore, and she walked towards him, trying to keep her pace steady.

Unexpectedly, today, he took the initiative to smile at her, indifferent, handsome, elegant and elegant smile like an ink painting.

Qin Fengyan doesn't like to laugh, I remember that at the beginning, in order to make him laugh, she tried a lot of ways and collected a lot of jokes on the Internet, but no matter how funny the jokes, he snorted coldly, this year's Valentine's Day, she spent all the New Year's money and pocket money that she had worked hard to save from childhood to adulthood, and ruthlessly bought a Patek Philippe watch that matched him, thinking that she could make him laugh, but who knew that he only said thank you coldly, she really had no way to take him, so she played a scoundrel:" You laugh at one, I've worked hard for so long, why don't you reward me with it, just laugh at one. ”

She held up a finger and looked at Qin Fengyan pitifully.

"I said, I'm not going to laugh. Qin Fengyan had a cold face, got up and wanted to leave.

She grabbed him in time and said aggrievedly: "Don't go, it's not very difficult to laugh......

As she spoke, she pulled the corners of her lips up at an unsightly angle with her hand, and said indistinctly, "...... Look, isn't that just laughing!"

Poof~!Qin Fengyan finally laughed!

This smile is flowing, elegant as still water and bright moon, arrogant as a lone sail in clear water, such a peerless elegance, so that He Wanqiu can't help but be stupid.

"Why are you smiling so ugly. Qin Fengyan looked at her with a smile.

He Wanqiu stared at him stupidly, and was so moved that she almost cried: "You smile so beautifully." ”

That night, Qin Fengyan was so gentle to her, it was the first time he kissed her so gently and so actively, and he also spent a good night with her, no matter how long time passed, as long as she remembered the scene of that day, she would still blush and heartbeat, and she would go crazy with happiness.

She has always believed that this is happiness, simple but precious......

Happiness......

The thought of this word made her feel distressed like a knife, and a tide of despair came up, drowning her and making her almost suffocated...... Happiness, the happiness of this life, she will not have it again!

Slowly, with difficulty but steadily, she finally walked up to him.

Qin Fengyan smiled calmly, reached out and stroked her hair, "Why did you miss the appointment last night, I waited for you in the restaurant for a long time, and I didn't see you come home at night, I'm worried!"

Late Autumn looked up at him and didn't answer his question.

"It's so late, where did you come back from?"

Qin Fengyan nodded her nose.

"Of course, I came back from the company, and I have urgent business today, so I handled it late, and you haven't answered my question just now. ”

Wanqiu coughed, "I had a little cold last night, and I didn't want to pass it on to you, so I stayed outside alone for one night." ”

Qin Fengyan frowned, reached out and touched her forehead, "You have a fever? ”

"Don't..."Late Autumn grabbed him, "There is fever medicine at home, it's good to take one pill, go to the hospital to do all kinds of examinations, toss so much that you can't rest well, it's better to take medicine at home." ”

Qin Fengyan thought about it, nodded, and helped her sit on the sofa.

"Then you rest first, and I'll go get the medicine. ”

Wanqiu looked at Uncle Wang, "Why do you go in person, ask Uncle Wang to take it down." ”

He smiled and straightened her coat, "I have the special antipyretic medicine that Doctor Huang gave last time in my room, and Uncle Li doesn't know, I'll give it to you." ”

Late Autumn nodded, her well-behaved demeanor attracted him to kiss her, and the kiss fell on her forehead like a spring breeze, dyeing Late Autumn's pale face slightly red.

His gaze couldn't help but linger on Wanqiu's face for a while before he stepped upstairs, and the concern and pity in his expression made Wanqiu's heart soften.

Maybe...... Maybe......

Thinking like this, Wanqiu hesitated slightly before raising his head and instructing Uncle Wang and his wife.

"Brother Fengyan is back, I'm not going out, you go and rest. ”

Uncle Wang and his wife hurriedly nodded and left.

The yellowish wall lamp shone brightly, hitting her cheeks coldly in late autumn, reflecting her bleak and sad expression.

She hesitated and hesitated, but finally raised her hand, lifted her sleeve, revealing the bruise, thought about it, put it down again, and then lifted it again.

When she tried to put it down for the third time, there was a sound of footsteps on the stairs, and her fingers rested on her sleeves, and it was too late to put them down.

With a silent sigh, she retreated into the shadows.

Qin Fengyan appeared in front of her, the capsule was dripping and rolling in his palm, and even the water was thoughtfully prepared, she had seen the yellow and green capsules once, and it was indeed the spare medicine in Qin Fengyan's room.

He gently handed him the cup and medicine in a persuasive tone.

"Come and take the medicine, just take it, and the fever will go away tomorrow. ”

Late Autumn looked into his eyes and smiled slowly.

"You treat me as a child, and you have to coax me to take medicine. ”

She leaned out of the shadows and took his medicine and glass with her strangled hand.

The angle of the yellowish wall lamp light shone into the strangulation marks on her wrists, revealing the bruises and purple scars.

In addition to her wrists, there were also purple marks on her neck.

His eyes froze slightly, and then subconsciously turned away.

Late Autumn felt a bang in his heart, and his fingers were suddenly cold, but he still didn't forget to take advantage of the time when he was subconsciously distracted to think about escaping, raised the water glass to drink, and quietly rolled the medicine into his sleeve.

By the time she put down the glass, he had already turned his gaze back and looked into her eyes, "Shall I help you go to sleep?"

Late autumn was already sleepily curled up in a ball, and replied in a daze, "It's just... Here......"

Without waiting for him to answer, he closed his eyes and fell asleep.

She closed her eyes and felt him standing in front of her for a long time, the gaze like substance, and the finger marks on her neck seemed to be burned by his gaze.

After a long time, he picked her up, went upstairs, and placed her on the bed in the bedroom.

She put her hands in the quilt, slowly clenched into fists, silent to despair, listening to him walking back and forth, as if thinking, hesitating, there was a sound of dialing the phone and putting it down, and feeling him approaching the bed, carefully looking at her face, she quickly slept more peacefully.

The desolation of the heart is infinite.

It's him, it's him......

He must have been surprised to see her, but he hid it.

She wouldn't say, so he pretended not to know.

Seeing the scars, he must also be weak?

The medicine was meant to put her to sleep, and then he should have asked the beast how it had made her escape?

She waited for him to make that call.

However, he was so suspicious, and seeing that she had taken the medicine, he was still so cautious.

It's ridiculous that he always has illusions, unwilling to face the cruel reality, and thinks willingly: he is so calm, so gentle, not necessarily him, not necessarily him, and even almost gave up deceiving him, and almost really took the medicine under his gaze.

What would he do if she fell asleep? Send her back to that cave?

The infinite chill diffused from the bottom of her heart little by little, and she closed her eyes vigorously, ordering herself not to shed tears at this time.

"Bang!"

The sound of the door being slammed open made her eyes open almost reflexively.

Fortunately, Qin Fengyan was also frightened, and she heard his footsteps and hurried downstairs.

"Qin Fengyan, you come out for me!" a nice but stern female voice sounded in the living room downstairs.

In the dark, Wanqiu opened her eyes in surprise, it was the voice of her mother Wang Xiaolei, how could she come here?

Qin Fengyan's voice was not as gentle as it was just now, indifferent and condescending.

"Auntie, what are you doing here?"

"Qin Fengyan, I don't care how much you looked down on me in the past, but I have been married to your third uncle for so many years, and I can be regarded as your elder, and you have ignored me all day today, is this the attitude you should have towards your elders?"

"Auntie, it's you who should stop in moderation!" The calm voice revealed the pride and majesty of the high: "Don't you quarrel here, if you have anything to say, let's go out and say." ”

His tone was so tired and so unkind,

He Wanqiu slowly let out a sneer, today is really a strange day, I have seen many bizarre and strange things, usually, Qin Fengyan Although he is indifferent, he has always been polite, and he is also very respectful to his elders, and there is no such thing as today.

But today, what thing has not deviated from its original track and can no longer be reversed?

"I'm not here to quarrel with you, I just want to ask, how is late autumn? Have you ever been to see her? The warehouse is cloudy and cold, I'm worried that she's going to catch a cold, should we send a piece of clothing over? And she's...

Wang Xiaolei's excited and incoherent words were like lightning bolts on a sunny day in late autumn's brain, interrupting her thoughts, her nerves, as if the world had stopped turning.

Mom knows it too!

What role did she play in it?

Oh no, don't!

Don't tell her that there are nineteen layers of hell under him after sending her to eighteen layers of hell!

……

"We didn't have to do anything, she came back. ”

"What?" Wang Xiaolei was shocked.

"She seems to have escaped on her own, and I can't contact the panther, I guess something happened, and Late Autumn probably didn't want us to worry, so she didn't say anything. ”

"She escaped? What should I do? The bidding hasn't started yet, do you want to send her back again?" Wang Xiaolei's voice was startled and anxious.

"No need. The cold voice carried unnoticed pain and pity: "She has injuries on her body, it is not suitable to stay in that warehouse anymore, I will watch her in the past two days, and do not let her contact the outside world, I have already received news from here, the eldest lady of the Lin family is getting a divorce, the court has temporarily frozen all of He Mutian's property, and He Mutian has had to withdraw from that target." ”

"She's hurt?" Wang Xiaolei almost roared, "How is it possible, aren't those people selected by you? How could you let them hurt her?

"It may have been injured during the kidnapping, some bruises, I look at her look, it shouldn't be very serious!"

"I'm going to see her!"

"She's asleep, you'd better come back in two days. ”

There was a dead silence.

After a long time, Wang Xiaolei spoke: "Okay, I'll come back in two days." But there is one more thing I have to ask clearly, Qin Fengyan, your third uncle inadvertently mentioned it to me, saying that you are going to get engaged to Leng Yingzi?"

Engaged?Didn't he promise to be with her and not get back together with Leng Yingzi??

He Wanqiu didn't know when, she had already gotten out of bed, standing barefoot on the ground, only to feel that her heart was colder than the soles of her feet, and her fingers were deeply sunk into the door frame.

She must have had a fever and dizziness to have such a hallucination, she must have heard it wrong.

After waiting for a long time, Qin Fengyan didn't speak,

Wang Xiaolei's voice sounded again: "Have you forgotten what you promised in late autumn? You said that you would be responsible for her, she is now pregnant with your child, you personally promised that as long as she is willing to give birth to a child, you will not get back together with Leng Yingzi, and also, have you forgotten how Leng Yingzi treated you back then?" ”

"I remember it very well. The cold and resolute tone made He Wanqiu shudder: "I also said that one day, she will pay the price for her decision back then." ”

"Marry you? This is the price she has to pay!" Wang Xiaolei sneered: "Heh, you have no feelings for her at all, let me ask you, what should I do in the late autumn? What should I do with the child in her womb? She loves you so desperately, do you have no feelings for her at all?"

Qin Fengyan groaned for a long time before he said in a faint voice: "I will take care of her and the child, no, I will pamper her for the rest of my life." ”

"What do you mean by that?" Wang Xiaolei's voice was trembling: "Do you want to learn from your grandfather, learn from your second uncle, and raise her outside to be your little mistress?"

Qin Fengyan chose to be silent again.

"Qin Fengyan ......," Wang Xiaolei called in disappointment.

"Auntie, you have too many problems tonight, you should go back and rest. ”

"Okay...... Wang Xiaolei was angry: "You wait, I'll go find the old man, I must find out about this matter." ”

"Bang!" The door closed very hard, and Wang Xiaolei seemed to vent all her anger on the door.

Hearing Qin Fengyan's footsteps walking back, Late Autumn only felt that her whole body was as cold as ice, she thought hard, but her head was white, no, she couldn't concentrate at all!

The footsteps were getting closer and closer, and after hesitating for a few seconds, I decided to climb into bed and continue to pretend to be asleep, if even my mother was involved in this kidnapping case, then she was really isolated in the United States. Now turning his face with Qin Fengyan undoubtedly gave him a fair and honest reason to send her back to that hell on earth.

As soon as she climbed into the futon with her front foot, he opened the door with her back foot, and there was only a few seconds before and after that she almost had time to hide it.

She tried her best to keep herself calm, and she didn't even dare to move her eyelashes, Qin Fengyan was too smart, any slight movement might make her expose herself.

"Late autumn?" Qin Fengyan walked to the side of the bed and called tentatively, it must have been because the noise just now was too loud, and he was afraid that he would wake her up.

He Wanqiu's eyes were closed tightly and she lay motionless.

Qin Fengyan called lightly twice more before he was sure that she was really asleep.

But the strange thing is that after making sure that she was asleep, Qin Fengyan didn't call, nor did she leave the room, just silent, after a while, Wanqiu obviously felt that the bed was sinking slightly, knowing that it was Qin Fengyan who sat on the side of her bed, she was even more nervous and didn't dare to come out.
