Towards the end of the New Year's Eve party, a large clock appeared on the screen of the stage to count down, and with each tick of the second hand, the people in the audience clapped their hands and shouted: "Nineteen, eight, seven, ......"

Offstage, Zhuo Yi glanced at Qi Lingyang, this kid has been wearing a strained face since he entered the venue, and he doesn't know how much he has seen in the second half of the party.

He said: "I have also heard about the Fu family, I think you should not worry about Su Xiang first, worry about yourself first." ”

“…… Three-two-one!"

As soon as the bell rang at zero o'clock, the audience cheered, Qi Lingyang looked at Zhuo Yi, only to hear Zhuo Yi shouting in his voice: "I saw your eldest brother come in just now." ”

Qi Lingyang frowned, at this time, the party ended, and the whole audience began to gather at the exit, Qi Lingyang didn't say anything, got up and walked out.

In the parking lot, in front of a black car, Qi Lingcong's long body leaned against the side of the car, one hand in his trouser pocket, the cigarette fire on his lips flashed, and he spit out a puff of smoke.

"Big brother?"

Qi Lingyang was carrying the car keys in his hand, and saw that Qi Lingcong was slightly stunned, the Fu family's banquet had already ended, and he hadn't gone back yet?

Qi Lingcong saw Qi Lingyang coming over, stepped on the cigarette butt under his feet and stood up, his angular face looked extremely serious.

He came up and said directly: "When did you get involved with that woman?"

Qi Lingyang also knew what Qi Lingcong was waiting for here, he smiled disapprovingly, and said, "What does it matter or not, it's just my relationship with her partner." ”

"Cooperation?" Qi Lingcong frowned and looked at him for a few seconds.

Qi Lingyang has no contact with family affairs and does not hold any position in the company, but he knows that he is messing around with his friends outside, and he doesn't know what he is doing all day long, and his family has never taken care of him.

"What's the matter that makes you need to work with a mute?"

The dumb man of the Fu family, who can't even say a word, is the object of everyone's jokes, a waste one, what is worth cooperating.

Without waiting for Qi Lingyang to speak, Qi Lingcong raised his hand to stop what Qi Lingyang was about to say, and said, "Forget it, I don't want to know about you." I'm just going to warn you that Father doesn't want to see what he doesn't want to see. ”

“……”

"I won't tell my father about this, but I hope you cut off contact with her as soon as possible and don't get angry. ”

Qi Lingyang pursed his lips and didn't speak, after Qi Lingcong glanced at him, he got up and walked to his car, Qi Lingyang stood in place, the corners of his lips slowly hooked, and he turned his head lazily to look behind him.

"If you tell your father it's okay, maybe he'll be happy. ”

Qi Lingyang pulled the corners of his lower lip, and Qi Lingyang was smart enough to tell what he meant.

The Fu family has been prosperous for so long, and the biggest failure is to have a mute daughter-in-law. With the relationship between the Qi family and the Fu family, seeing the Fu family making a fool, the Qi family is indeed one of the jokes.

However, if this matter is also involved in the Qi family, it will be a different matter.

Qi Lincong's voice sank, and he said meaningfully: "If something embarrassing happens to the Qi family, do you think my father will be happy?"

Qi Lingyang's smile paused slightly, and he said, "Big brother, don't worry, nothing will happen." ”

He tried to say something again, but finally made a wave of his hand and opened his car door.

Sitting in the car, Qi Lingyang held the steering wheel, the corners of his lips that were slightly hooked slowly fell, and he glanced at the mobile phone that was casually placed in the front of the car, his eyebrows twisted slightly, and his fingers were on the mobile phone.

Similarly, Qi Lingcong, who was sitting in the car, looked at the car that was a distance away, a person who was idle all day long, it was really not so worry-free, perhaps, it was time to consider letting him into the company......

……

Halfway through the night, most of the city fell asleep, and at this time, the Fu family was brightly lit, and Fu Ying, who had always gone to bed early, was crying endlessly, and no one could coax him.

Mother Song hugged the little guy and coaxed "oh oh", and glanced at the man sitting in the living room with a gloomy face from time to time.

It's all this time, and the wife hasn't come back yet, which has never been done before.

Fu Ying cried heartbreakingly, and stretched out his little hand to Fu Hanchuan's side one by one, crying and shouting numbness, Song's mother was so heartbroken by him that she cried.

The little one is happy every day, and rarely cries, but it is the first time that he has cried so sadly.

But Mother Song is a subordinate, where do you dare to ask more. In the past, the little master lost his temper and cried, and the gentleman must have said something obediently, but at this time, Song's mother didn't dare to let the child go to him.

The doorbell rang twice, Mother Song glanced at the man, and hurriedly ran over to open the door, but when the door opened, Mother Song glanced at the person in disappointment, and Fu Ying in her arms closed her eyes and let go of her voice after crying for a few seconds.

Fu Hanchuan has been sitting in the living room since he came back from the Su Mansion, with a black face, and no one dares to approach.

In the middle of the night, she didn't go home as a dumb person, and she didn't go back to Su's house, Fu Hanchuan almost looked for all the places he could think of, and even went to the deaf and dumb school, but he didn't see anyone.

Qiao Shen walked into the living room and said to Fu Hanchuan with an apologetic face: "Mr. Fu, I have basically called and asked about the hotels above the three-star level in Beicheng, and they all said that my wife did not check in. ”

Fu Hanchuan's eyebrows furrowed into a Sichuan character, Su Xiang almost had no friends, where else could he go, so he asked Qiao Shen to go to the hotel to check, but after waiting for more than two hours, did he get it?

Qiao Shen, as the first assistant, was also depressed at this time, and there was something he couldn't do.

In order to find people smoothly, he has already narrowed the scope of the search to hotels above three stars, and the dignified young grandmother of the Fu family may not have to go to a motel, right?

However, this possibility is not out of the question......

Fu Hanchuan didn't say anything, Qiao Shen scratched his forehead, and said again: "Mr. Fu, will my wife go to live at her student's house?"

When she left at the last time, she was going to see off her group of students, she had a good relationship with those students, maybe she didn't want to come back for fear that the Fu family would trouble her.

But when this reason is said, Qiao Shen himself feels ridiculous.

No matter what, how can a teacher live in a student's house, and the wife is usually the most relieved little master, how can she not go home in order to escape the blame of the Fu family.

So there is another possibility, that is......

Qiao Shen glanced at Fu Hanchuan cautiously, and didn't dare to say this possibility at all.

Qi Lingyang also sent the students away, but he kept an eye on him, and after sending those children away, Qi Lingyang returned to the banquet hall, and his wife got into a taxi alone.

Unless Qi Lingyang arranged a place for her to go again......

This may be said, and it is estimated that the big boss will go berserk, so he will never dare to say it.

Qiao Shen coughed lightly with his fist against his lips, and said, "Mr. Fu, it's late at night, and it's not very convenient for my wife to speak, she is alone outside, will she meet ......?"

At this time, Fu Hanchuan raised his eyes, his cold eyes pierced him to stop talking, and hurriedly said, "I'll look for it again immediately." ”

Qiao Shen didn't dare to stay for a moment, and immediately walked out as he spoke.

Inside the house, except for Fu Ying's crying voice, the dead silence made people dare not take a breath.

The sudden ringing of the bell made people's hearts tremble, and Fu Hanchuan's eyes that had not moved much moved moved to the mobile phone placed on the coffee table, and the caller ID showed the number of the Fu family's old house.

Fu Hanchuan frowned tightly and picked up the phone.

"Mom, what's the matter?"

After the Fu family's banquet was dispersed, Mrs. Zhuoya was sent back to the old mansion by the driver. Her high blood pressure was relapsed, and she took medicine and rested for a while before it eased.

But as soon as she eased up, she called Fu Hanchuan.

Today's matter, she has to ask clearly!

"Han Chuan, how did that dumb man appear at someone else's banquet with the people of the Qi family?"

Mrs. Zhuoya later heard that another private hall was holding a New Year's Eve party, and the two sides collided, which made her angry and about to explode.

That dumb man, she just appeared in the hotel, but she was still with the Qi family's one, which made the Fu family lose face, and the banquet she single-handedly organized was completely ruined by that dumb man.

The Fu family rarely holds banquets, and I wanted to take this opportunity to win over Fu Zhengnan and show someone their relationship between husband and wife, but it made her the biggest laughing stock, and Fu Zhengnan left without looking back after the banquet.

Mrs. Zhuoya remembered Fu Zhengnan's last disgusted sentence before leaving, "Look at what you did", and her heart tingled.

She rubbed her swollen forehead, and at this time, it was better to figure out the dumb thing first.

Fu Hanchuan held the phone, pinched his eyebrows and said, "Mom, I'll talk about this later." ”

He wasn't in the mood to talk about it right now.

From the anger at the beginning, it has now turned into anger and irritability.

Fu Hanchuan raised his hand and glanced at his watch again, and another half an hour passed.

"In the future?" When Mrs. Zhuoya heard her son's tone, she became even more dissatisfied, one by one, they didn't take her seriously, did they want to anger her?

Lady Zhuoya said angrily, "Hanchuan, do you know what you are doing?"

Without waiting for Fu Hanchuan to say anything, she said again: "Forget it, what about her, bring her over, if you don't ask this matter clearly, I won't let her go!"

Fu Hanchuan said: "Mom, you don't care about this matter, I'll deal with it, hang up first." ”

After saying that, he hung up the phone first and threw the phone aside irritably.

The phone hit the coffee table with a loud "bang".

Mother Song looked at the clock hanging on the wall, she couldn't help it, and said: "Sir, I read in the news that there are single women who live in hotels and are maliciously harassed, and there are also those who are forcibly taken away by strangers, Assistant Qiao is right, Mrs. She is inconvenient to speak, and it is really dangerous for her to be alone outside!"

Fu Hanchuan clenched his fists, the last time Su Xiang was touched by someone, he just couldn't call the police to notify him.

He glanced at the phone that had quieted down, and the hanging stitches on his brow were squeezed out.

After a few seconds of silence, I saw Fu Hanchuan grab his mobile phone and car keys, get up and stand up and walk to the door.

Mother Song coaxed Fu Ying and asked, "Sir, it's so late, where are you going?"

Fu Hanchuan said: "You coax Fu Ying to sleep first." With that, he walked out.

……

Qi Lingyang came home, wiped his wet hair and walked out of the bathroom after taking a shower, he glanced at the mobile phone on the bedside table, thought about it and picked it up.

Linghu Wujiang: What's the matter, the Fu family didn't embarrass you, right?

It's already so late, Su Xiang should have arrived home, but the Fu family shouldn't let her have a good time when she goes back.

Looking at the faces of the Fu family, it seemed like they were going to eat her alive.

After sending the message, he put his phone back on the bedside table and was about to pour a glass of milk to help him sleep, but when he walked to the kitchen door, the phone suddenly rang.

Qi Ling frowned, standing at the kitchen door and looking at the bedroom door.

This is not a prompt tone for a reply on QQ, but a ringtone on his phone.

Who is still calling him at this time, Qi Lingcong shouldn't be uneasy, and call him again to remind him, right?

The ringtone of the mobile phone has the meaning of not stopping if you don't answer it, but Qi Lingyang poured the milk leisurely and put it in the pot to boil it.

The ringtone quieted down, and when Qi Lingyang walked back to the bedroom with hot milk in his hand, the mobile phone that had stopped for a while rang again.

Qi Lingyang glanced at the caller ID and was puzzled, this is an unfamiliar number.

He picked it up, "Hey, who?"

"Where is she?"

There was anger in his deep voice, Qi Lingyang frowned, this voice was somewhat familiar to him.

"Fu Shao?"

Fu Hanchuan was sitting in the car at this time, his eyes flashed with fire, and he asked again with anger: "She, where is she?"

He has no intersection with Qi Lingyang, but it is not difficult to get his mobile phone number.

Qi Lingyang listened to Fu Hanchuan's tone was wrong, his eyes flashed, didn't Su Xiang go back?

"Fu Shao, don't you think it's ridiculous that you asked me where your wife is in the middle of the night?"

"Su Xiang followed a man like you, and he really poured mold for eight lifetimes!"

"Click", Qi Lingyang stabbed Fu Hanchuan and hung up the phone, stopped drinking the milk, walked straight to the wardrobe with long legs, and quickly changed his clothes.

It's been the middle of the night, and she hasn't gone back yet.

Before the two separated, she clearly said that she would go back by herself.

Beicheng is so big, but there are deep pits everywhere, he really shouldn't let her go alone.

Qi Lingyang put on his clothes as fast as he could, and ran to the garage quickly......

……

After searching for a whole night, Fu Hanchuan searched almost all the roads in Beicheng, and Qiao Shen also searched almost all the hotels and inns in Beicheng, even the hospital, but still found nothing.

The people who went out to look for it had red eyes, and their eyes were full of red bloodshots.

Qiao Shen was really out of whack, and said, "Mr. Fu, why don't you call the police?"

In the president's office, there is an atmosphere that is so depressing that it can't breathe.

Fu Hanchuan closed his eyes, pinched his eyebrows, and said coldly: "Do you think the Fu family has lost someone, can this kind of thing be called to the police?"

Besides, if the person disappeared less than 48 hours ago, and the police reported it, the police would not accept it.

Last night, Su Xiang left with Qi Lingyang in front of everyone, if the pressure is exerted in the name of the Fu family, what do people think about this matter?

Qiao Shen also realized this problem, and said in a deep voice: "I'm continuing to look for it." ”

At this time, in a high-end apartment, Yu Cangcang walked out of the kitchen in pajamas, and a pot of cooked thick rice porridge was placed on the dining table.

Fu Zhengnan sat at the dining table, flipping through the latest newspapers.

Although it is now the electronic age, for the older generation such as Fu Zhengnan, reading the newspaper before breakfast is their habit.

But today, he looked at all the news pages, but he didn't see anything.

Yu Cangcang put a bowl of hot porridge in front of him and said, "Old man, are you still uncomfortable? Otherwise, don't go to the company today." ”

Fu Zhengnan put the newspaper aside, reached out and picked up the chopsticks, picked up some side dishes, put them on the rice porridge, and put down the chopsticks.

He barely slept all night, and at this time he had no appetite at all.

Yu Cangcang sat down opposite him, glanced at him again, and comforted: "Actually, it's not a big deal, it's just that Su Xiang and Qi Ershao appeared on the same occasion together." ”

"Qi Ershao is doing a public welfare project, Su Xiang is going to help, this project is completed, if it gets attention, it will be a great help to the entertainment company. ”

"How fierce the competition in the entertainment industry is now, if you don't make some moves and don't attract investment, you will soon be submerged. ”

Fu Zhengnan slapped the table and said angrily: "His company is making face, what about our Fu family! I am about to run for the president of the Chamber of Commerce, and finally the things of three years ago have slowly precipitated, and there has been such a big movement! Is she deliberately unable to get along with our Fu family!"

The corners of Yu Cangcang's lips curled, put some wooden eggs into his bowl, and said with a smile: "I see, she didn't mean to get along with your Fu family, but she was a bit like your Fu family's nemesis." ”

Fu Zhengnan glared at her, it was this time, and he was still in the mood to tease him, Yu Cangcang put away his smile and said seriously: "Actually, this is not a bad thing. ”

Fu Zhengnan picked up the wooden egg she sent and put it in his mouth: "What do you say?"

"Once this app is successful, in a way, it will solve the communication problem of the deaf and mute, which is very beneficial to Su Xiang. I think that's what attracted her to this project. ”

"Isn't it a good thing that the dumb daughter-in-law of the Fu family can 'speak'?"

"So, old man, you really don't need to be so angry. ”

Fu Zhengnan glared at Yu Cangcang again, but his face was not so ugly. He said, "What do you know? Whoever she is working with on a project will not cause such a big incident, and you don't know Qi Lingyang......"

Fu Zhengnan didn't finish his words, but Yu Cangcang understood that he was going to say that the Su family originally planned to make Su Xiang and Qi Lingyang a pair.

After going around and around for three years, I didn't expect to be involved again, and it was really unjust.

Yu Cangcang smiled and said, "It's not that it didn't work out." ”

She ate a spoonful of porridge, and then continued: "To make an inappropriate analogy, it's like an antique dealer who sells fakes, and he was going to pit another wronged man, but I am richer and more powerful than that wronged man, and this antique dealer will pit me in order to sell me at a higher price, so I will hate that wronged man who is not rich and powerful as me from now on?"

"There's no need for that, is it?"

"Want to open something......

Yu Cangcang's soft tone, like the bone-turning palm, can soften a man's bones. Under the table, her feet gently rubbed against Fu Zhengnan's calves, and a pair of hooked eyes let out a flattering smile.

Fu Zhengnan sighed: "You, anything that comes to your mouth can say something nice." ”

He finally smiled for the first time in the night, bowed his head and took a sip of soft rice porridge.

But how can people compare with things, buy fakes, it's a big deal to lose them, but this person ......

Fu Zhengnan sighed sadly again in his heart. He raised his head and said, "After all, you have done a good job of the company, but don't mess around." ”

Yu Cangjiao smiled and said: "I was cultivated by you, I do things, can you still feel at ease?"

Standing on the balcony, Yu Cangcang held a cup of coffee in his hand, watching the car downstairs go away, the corners of his lips curled, and a sneer appeared in the corners of his eyes.

Thirty years wedding anniversary?

She really wanted to thank that Mrs. Fu for making that invincible lady lose face, Fu Zhengnan didn't even want to celebrate the anniversary, and went directly to her from the banquet.

……

In the huge study, the breeze blew through the white screen window, the sunlight passed through the thin veil, and it was clear that the window was full of spring, but what Su Xiang saw was a breathless dead silence.

A man stood on the balcony with his back to her, he smoked a cigarette, white smoke filled the air, I don't know how much he smoked, even the study was full of smoke.

His back is slightly bent, as if a mountain is pressed on his back, his gray sideburns add a lot of vicissitudes, and his melancholy side face looks even more depressing.

A woman's soft sobs rang out in the room: "Don't, please don't do this......"

The woman stepped forward and grabbed the man's arm and shook it in pleading, and the flame of the cigarette butt shook in the sunlight.

"She's already in such pain, you're sending her to hell by doing this...... The kind of people in the Fu family will not accept her, please, don't ......"

The man took a hard puff of his cigarette, and the spark of the cigarette butt flashed, and he shook off the woman, and the woman fell to the ground at once.

He said angrily: "I have raised her for twenty years, and now the Su family is about to collapse, shouldn't she make a contribution!"

"No matter what, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, I can't give up!"

The man's reddened eyes looked at Su Xiang.

Su Xiang looked at the man's face indifferently, and in his memory, he almost didn't have a pleasant face towards her.

He locked her up in this villa because he couldn't be seen by outsiders.

At this time, the woman crawled up in pain, grabbed the corner of the man's clothes, knelt down in front of him, tears rolled down from her eyes, snaked to her chin, and finally dripped to the ground and shattered: "Mingdong, please......"

When the man saw her kneeling, his eyes shook fiercely: "Shen Yan, you ......"

"Please, don't, huh?"

The woman shook her head, more tears welled up in her eyes, the man tightened his eyebrows deeply, took a deep breath and said, "But do you know......?

"It's over...... Do you understand what the consequences are?"

The woman nodded, revealing a sad smile: "Even if it is under the Yellow Spring, I will accompany you, but Su Xiang ......"

She turned her head, glanced at Su Xiang, and then looked at the man: "Let her go......"

The screen turns again.

Su Xiang looked at the two corpses downstairs not far apart, and blood kept pouring out of their bodies, filling her entire world.

Red...... Sticky, blood-red......

In the distance, police cars roared in, and the media from all sides who got the information also flocked to her, and her safety fortress collapsed from this day......

Su Xiang's body shook suddenly, and he opened his eyes, his body still trembling.

The blood red in front of me slowly faded, and it was a cool green.

"Are you awake?" Qin Zhou walked over and looked at Su Xiang, showing a relieved expression, "If you don't wake up again, I'll be ready to send you to the hospital." ”

"You had a high fever for a day and a night, but luckily the fever has subsided. Qin Zhou handed her a glass of warm boiled water and sat down on the chair next to her.

Su Xiang held the water cup and looked around, Qin Zhou knew that she had questions, and said: "This is my house, when I went home the night before yesterday, a person suddenly appeared on the road, I didn't expect that person to be you." ”

He's a doctor, and he's a psychiatrist second, so fever isn't a problem for him.

Qin Zhou smiled: "But it's okay, you are too nervous to faint." ”

Su Xiang pursed her lips, her dry lips were already peeling, she took a sip of water, and her thirsty throat was more comfortable.

Qin Zhou looked at her and said, "Why are you walking on the road alone in the middle of the night?"

Su Xiang had a high fever and was unconscious, not just a simple cold, but something that made her very painful in her heart, Qin Zhou, as a psychiatrist, knew it by looking at her micro-expressions.

Su Xiang lowered his eyes, his fingers suddenly clenched the cup in his hand, Qin Zhou glanced at her, stood up and walked out of the room, and when he came back, he held two mobile phones in his hands.

One is broken, the other is intact, he handed the phone to Su Xiang and said, "Your phone is broken, I can't contact your family." You use my phone to tell him that he's safe, he should be in a hurry. ”

Su Xiang lowered his eyes, looked at the two mobile phones, and finally only took his own.

Qin Zhou looked at her: "Did you quarrel with him?"

"Talk to me if you'd like, you know, I'm pretty good at uncovering people's feelings. ”

Su Xiang raised his eyes and glanced at him, his fingers moved, but he was quiet again.

There are some things, no matter how uncomfortable you feel in your heart, you can't say anything to anyone.

She can't tell others what kind of home she has, what kind of husband she has, she has a name and a surname, but she can't tell others what kind of person she is......

Su Xiang raised his hand and drank the water, and squeezed out a smile.

- I'm fine, it's just that something happened.

In order to prevent Qin Zhou from asking, she changed the topic.

- By the way, why haven't I seen you at school during this time?

Qin Zhou knew that she didn't want to talk about her, so he said, "I was dealing with some things in Liangcheng during this time, and I just came back the day before yesterday. ”

Who knew that on the way back, he met her who was lost and depressed.

He glanced at Su Xiang, and in addition, it can be regarded as sorting out some things.

After knowing that she was married, he admitted that he felt uncomfortable for a while, so when the above assigned him to go to Liangcheng to do something, he agreed to go.

Su Xiang nodded, so that's the case.

Qin Zhou looked at her, wrinkled his eyebrows slightly, and said, "But I heard that you are no longer teaching at school?"

Su Xiang nodded.

- Something happened and I won't go back to school to teach for the time being.

Her fingers slowly rubbed the broken screen of the mobile phone, and Qin Zhou sighed lightly when he saw that she was preoccupied.

I can't put it down.

He spoke again, "I'll send you back." ”
