"Ever since I succeeded as the head of the Xie family, I have been constantly told that even in my capacity, I still haven't seen the master of this world clearly." Xie Yuyan's beautiful eyes blinked lightly, and there was a hint of brilliance in his eyes, "Li Qing, we are not the rule-makers, but they are." And we must follow the rules they have set or we will be exterminated. ”

Li Qing's face was confused: "I don't understand what you mean." ”

"Your parents, breaking the rules, they got involved in something that wasn't allowed. ”

Xie Yuyan's voice fell, and the room fell into a long silence. After another moment, she spoke again: "Li Qing, do you still plan to continue?"

"Tell me what you think is important, and you'll see my judgment. ”

"It's still so cunning..."Xie Yuyan smiled and pinched Li Qing's ears, and then said slowly: "Ten years ago, my father was still alive, and I have not succeeded as the head of the Xie family. However, I have been trained as a successor, and I have some of my own strength. The strength you feel today comes from the team I started building at that time. It is always good to plan ahead, and these forces have helped me a lot after my father's death, and they have also enabled the Xie family to successfully tide over the difficulties. ”

"Am I far away?" Xie Yuyan smiled and shook his head gently, "Let me talk about the accident ten years ago from the perspective of a bystander." ”

"I'm two years older than you and Rou'er, and the night you graduated from high school, I was coming home from abroad for the summer vacation. Originally, I planned to attend the graduation party as a senior sister that night, and find trouble for you freshly graduated elementary school brothers. However, before going out that afternoon, I felt a little unwell, so I simply canceled the plan temporarily. At half past seven in the evening, your father Li Yuanwen rushed to Xie's house, and I saw that he hurriedly walked into his father's study, stayed for about half an hour, and walked out with a blue face. His expression seemed a little desperate, and he didn't even bother me to greet him. You know that your father was gentle and polite, and he had never been so gaffe. ”

Li Qing's body stiffened slightly, and a little surprise appeared in his eyes: "That night, my father came to Xie's house?"

"If I'm not mistaken, he should have gone to Qi's house as well. Xie Yuyan said lightly, "As for what he discussed with his father, I don't know." But after he had gone, my father called me to the study, and I found that his face was also very unsightly, and that he had been clenching his palms as if he were in great pain.

"My father told me that something big was going to happen in Lingang. He motioned for me not to go back to school for the time being, and to take care of this home with him. I was puzzled and asked him what he was going to prepare, and he replied that he didn't need to prepare anything, and the next thing we did was to control ourselves and do nothing. I agreed, slept with a full stomach of questions**, and was suddenly woken up by someone at three o'clock in the morning, and they told me that something had happened to the Li family. The car in which Li Yuanwen and his wife were traveling had an accident on the highway to Mingtai, and the couple died on the spot. ”

A wave of tiredness hit Li Qing's heart, he felt his brain groggy, but he tried to keep himself awake: "What's next?"

Xie Yuyan sighed softly: "I'm curious, my father can do nothing, but I can't." In fact, when Li Yuanwen left the Xie Family Mansion, I had already sensed that something was wrong, so I secretly sent someone to follow him. Your father is very intelligent, but he is far less vigilant than you, so it is not difficult to follow him. I know you must be most concerned about what your father did before he died, after all, that unreceived phone call has made you feel guilty for so many years. ”

Li Qing suddenly grabbed Xie Yuyan's jade hand and took a deep breath: "Tell me." ”

Xiu Mei frowned slightly, Xie Yuyan pulled out his hand, and lifted a thin blanket from the side to cover Li Qing's body, just because the charcoal fire in the stove was not so hot.

"At half past eight that night, your father returned to the Li family manor. Stayed inside for about an hour, and then hurried out with your mother, followed by the two of them was the bodyguard Pan Zhicheng. They didn't bring any luggage, they got into a black car that had already stopped at the door, and then drove in the direction of Mingtai. On the highway on the outskirts of Gangbei City, the three of them got out of the car, and your father started to call, and it was already past ten o'clock in the evening at that time. ”

"He's calling me. Li Qing said softly, "But I didn't receive it." ”

"Yes, the call didn't go through. So your father dialed a second number, and this time the call went through. ”

"Who did he call him?" Li Qing suddenly became nervous.

Xie Yuyan shook his head: "I don't know, the people I sent out are too far away to hear what they are saying." But I heard him roar, I know you're in Lingang, please save him. ”

Li Qing repeated this sentence: "I know that you are in Lingang, save him... Is my father referring to me?"

"I don't know. Xie Yuyan still shook his head, "After the phone call, your father commanded Pan Zhicheng a few words, Pan Zhicheng seemed to argue with him for a few words, and finally turned around and left. Then your father and mother hugged each other, crouched by the car and cried. An hour later, they wiped away their tears and got back into the car. This time it was your father driving until the accident. ”

Li Qing sat up slowly, straightened up and staggered forward two steps, then turned around and stared at Xie Yuyan with an incredulous expression: "You... Didn't lie to me?"

Xie Yuyan was not annoyed at all, and said lightly: "Li Qing, it doesn't matter if I lie to you, or if I don't lie to you, it doesn't matter, you just need to trust your own judgment." ”

"I should have known... Li Qing stretched out his hand to support his forehead, only to feel a violent dizziness rush up, "They should have known their fate before that accident." I often can't figure out what they are doing in the middle of the night when they drive to Mingtai, and now I finally know. ”

Li Qing sat down on the chair again, and his body trembled violently: "Their purpose is not to go to Mingtai at all, they are just bent on dying." ”

After staring at Li Qing for a while, Xie Yuyan's beautiful eyes blinked lightly: "One thing you said is right, the perpetrator of that accident is Pan Zhicheng, as for whether he was instructed by someone or ordered by your parents to operate such an accident, there is no way to know." By the time I caught him, he had gone mad. As for his mysterious disappearance of family members, you don't have to doubt that the so-called smuggling out of the overseas is just an illusion created for you, and I have done it myself, and no one can find out the clues. ”

"Then they..."

Seeing the hesitation on Li Qing's face, Xie Yuyan raised his arrogant head slightly: "I ordered my subordinates to kill all his family." ”

Li Qing stood up suddenly, his eyes widened, and he stared at Xie Yuyan without blinking, his cheeks were a little cold: "What's the point of you doing this?"

"To keep this man until he is brought to you and make you believe in me. Xie Yuyan's voice became cold, "I hate accidents, so I have to block all the openings." Only by cutting off a person's possession can all his information be blocked. You know, whether he's crazy or not, whether he really knows some secrets about your father, there are always a lot of people who want to find him and keep him silent forever. ”

The jade hand rubbed his temples, and Xie Yuyan's voice was as soft as a feather: "I caught him at Pan Zhicheng's house, when he was wrapped in a thick quilt and shrunk on the ** shivering. Elderly parents, virtuous wives, and well-behaved children are all around, full of anxiety. I asked him questions and he didn't answer. This lack of cooperation annoyed me quite a bit, so he let him witness the blood with his own eyes. ”

Li Qing's body stiffened slightly, and his face turned pale: "You killed his family in front of him?"

Xie Yuyan glanced at Li Qing lightly: "What are your emotions now? Do you feel guilty? I heard that you almost killed him on Yaoshan Road... You don't have to feel that way, after all, he killed your parents. ”

Reaching out to support his forehead, Li Qing leaned on the back of the chair, only feeling weak and weak.

"Xie Yuyan, what do you mean!" Li Qing suddenly roared, threw the chair beside him diagonally, and smashed the stove in the room, scattering the dim charcoal fire all over the ground.

Xie Yuyan sat there unusually calmly, his eyes were slightly constricted, and his face was calm.

"The head of the house—" someone knocked on the door outside, and called out in a worried voice.

"It's okay, I'm talking to the head of the Li family. Xie Yuyan said lightly, "Go down." ”

"Yes. There was a soft answer outside the door, and then there was no more sound.

Raising his head, Li Qing stared at the sky board and took a deep breath, then sat down and stared at the mess on the ground, his face cloudy.

The unextinguished charcoal fire touched the carpet in the room, giving off an unpleasant smell of burning.

"Yuyan, what do you want to do?" Li Qing said in a deep voice, "You might as well tell me directly." ”

With a sigh, Xie Yuyan also raised his head and stared at the skyboard, and after a while, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Your father Li Yuanwen, he walked into a forbidden place due to impulse. Your grandfather, Li Qizhi, should know a lot about this, and don't touch the rules at will has taken root in his bones. But he didn't pass that warning on to you, probably because he felt it would be safer for you to be a dumb fool. You will resent him for not saving you in the first place, for not upholding justice for the death of your parents, so you will not know that even he has forbidden areas that he dare not touch. ”

Li Qing raised his head suddenly: "What is the forbidden area?"
