Tick-tock, the air was very quiet, Xia Xizhi looked at Ji Xiuyu tightly, his face pale.

As long as a century had passed, Xia Xizhi finally found his voice: "Is what you said true? My dad is the murderer who killed your mother?"

Looking at her expression, Ji Xiuyu himself responded: "Yes." ”

His eyelashes trembled, and Xia Xizhi lowered his eyes. Taking a deep breath, Xia Xizhi said in a low voice: "So you deliberately snubbed me during this time, and that's why, right?"

Staring at his gaze, Ji Xiuyu said calmly: "Yes." ”

Getting this answer, Xia Xizhi smiled bitterly: "I didn't expect to go around and around, I turned out to be the daughter of your mother's killer, hehe, it's really ironic." ”

Clenching his fists tightly, Xia Xizhi restrained his emotions. Seeing that he was silent, Xia Xizhi kept himself calm: "There may be some misunderstanding here, I want to go back and ask him in person." ”

"Whatever you want. Ji Xiuyu opened his mouth indifferently.

Standing up, Xia Xizhi reluctantly squeezed out a smile and said, "You can rest well tonight." I'll go sleep in the living room and don't disturb you. ”

With that, Xia Xizhi turned around and walked towards the door. Looking at his back, Ji Xiuyu closed his eyes heavily. Feeling her loneliness, but he knew that it was the best way for them.

Early the next morning, Ji Xiuyu went downstairs and saw a slender figure nestled in the sofa. Thinking of last night's scene, his expression looked solemn.

Adjusting her mood, Ji Xiuyu took a step forward and walked downstairs, maybe it was the footsteps that woke her up, maybe she didn't fall asleep at all, Xia Xizhi opened his eyes and looked in his direction.

Sitting up, Xia Xizhi barely squeezed out a smile: "Get up." ”

With a faint hum, it was a response, Ji Xiuyu didn't speak again, and continued to walk downstairs.

The distance between the two was getting closer and closer, and at this moment, Xia Xizhi's heart suddenly became a little nervous. When he was about to pass by, Xia Xizhi took her hand: "Xiuyu wait." ”

Ji Xiuyu looked sideways, looking at him coldly, waiting for his next step.

"I've been thinking about it all night, but I still haven't figured it out, why would my father want to hurt your mother?" Xia Xizhi asked.

"In order to marry the Ji family, Chen Lihua was very favored back then, and my father wanted to marry her, but because my mother occupied the position of the main room, there was no way. And your father has become Chen Lihua's sharp blade against my mother. ”

Listening to his explanation, Xia Xizhi's heart chuckled. He didn't expect it to be this reason. He finally understood why the Ji family, who had a prominent family, would be willing to marry the Xia family of a small company.

With a sour nose, Xia Xizhi raised his head and said seriously: "I will go to him to ask for an answer, I hope there is a misunderstanding." ”

With a faint hum, Ji Xiuyu didn't speak again, he also hoped that there was a misunderstanding, but unfortunately the evidence was conclusive. But since he wanted to meet, he didn't stop it.

Seeing him raise his footsteps, Xia Xizhi blurted out and asked, "If it's true, can we continue between us?"

"What do you say? Ji Xiuyu didn't answer, but asked calmly.

Xia Xizhi was silent, he knew how important Ji Mu was to Ji Xiuyu. Standing there lonely, Xia Xizhi's heart fell to the bottom.

Not wanting to see his expression again, Ji Xiuyu raised his steps and left the house without any pause.

Hearing the sound of the door closing, Xia Xizhi turned around and stared at the closed door.

Outside the Xia family's villa. Xia Zhengguo opened the door and saw Xia Xizhi standing outside the door, and asked in surprise, "Xizhi, why are you here?"

Xia Xizhi didn't answer, just stood in front of him and raised his head, staring at the man in front of him, making himself feel strange: "Dad, I want to know something, I hope you can answer me truthfully." ”

Seeing his solemn expression, Xia Zhengguo asked with a light smile: "What's the matter?" ”

Clenched his fists, Xia Xizhi opened his mouth and asked, "Do you have anything to do with Xiuyu's mother's death?"

Staring wide-eyed in shock, Xia Zhengguo's breathing was suppressed, and his face instantly stiffened: "Why do you ask that? Did Ji Xiuyu find something?"

Seeing his expression and hearing his words, Xia Xizhi confirmed the answer. Walking forward, Xia Xizhi grabbed her arm excitedly and said questioningly: "So you know that he is investigating you, why did you do this? Why do you want to harm people?"

Xia Zhengguo came back to his senses and said, "Is Ji Xiuyu very angry, what did he tell you?"

Angrily shaking off his hand, Xia Xizhi said loudly: "I really wish I wasn't your daughter, so your affairs have nothing to do with me, and I don't need to evolve into today's situation with Xiuyu because of you." ”

Seeing her appearance, Xia Zhengguo felt the seriousness of the matter, pressed her shoulder, and said with a straight face: "It's a pity, you must help me intercede with Ji Xiuyu." It was Chen Lihua who threatened me to do this. Otherwise, I have no grievances with him, how can I harm her. ”

"Because you want to marry the Ji family, you want your baby daughter to fly on the branches. Xia Xizhi said with a sneer.

Seeing him tell the truth, Xia Zhengguo did not deny it. Looking at her appearance, Xia Zhengguo put down his hand and said, "It's a pity, if you want to get the Xia family's property, it's best to follow what I said, go and talk to Ji Xiuyu, even if it's to beg him, don't deal with me." Otherwise, I wouldn't be the only one who lost. ”

Staring at his gaze, at this moment, Xia Xizhi's heart was full of sadness, because she knew that Xia Zhengguo was not worried about whether his marriage was happy at all, what he cared about was the Xia family's property.

"You said that I would inherit the Xia family's property, is it because of this, do you already know that Xiu Yu wants to deal with you, so you decided to do so?" Xia Xizhi asked slowly.

Xia Zhengguo did not deny it, put one hand in his trouser pocket, and said with a smile: "It's also part of the truth." But like you said, now you are my only hope. Now we are grasshoppers in the same boat. We need to work together to solve this problem. ”

Tears rolled down from his eyes, and Xia Xizhi laughed silently. He felt sad and needed to burden himself for someone who didn't care about him at all.

turned around, Xia Xizhi didn't speak, and left without looking back.

Back in the car, holding the keyboard with both hands, Xia Xizhi finally couldn't hold back and cried loudly. I thought that I could finally be happy, but I didn't expect to experience such a change.

Put the tissue down, Xia Xizhi choked up and said, "What should I do, just give up my relationship with Xiuyu?"
