Qiao Shen gritted the root of his teeth, and the bulging muscles on the sides of his cheeks were clearly visible.

Pei Xian looked at him: "Zhang Yeting, what did he do to your sister?"

Qiao Shen's fingers crumbled, and his breath became heavier.

Pei Xian took a step forward, approaching Qiao Shen even more, and his deep voice carried a cold and angry momentum: "Zhang Yeting, is he strong and violent to her, that child, is it his!"

Qiao took a deep breath, his muscles tensed as if he had been pricked by a needle, and looked at Pei Xian with a shocked face, he knew that Qiao Ying was forced and raped, and that incident was enough to destroy her pain for her.

He grabbed Pei Xian's collar: "Did you force her?" If Qiao Ying hadn't thought of that, she wouldn't have become like this. In order to make her forget, they even moved out of their hometown and came to this unfamiliar place to start over.

All the people in the Qiao family never mentioned that incident, Zhang Yeting came to the door, and the whole family was afraid that Qiao Ying would return to the state of the past. Fortunately, Qiao Ying used all the pain on the scissors, and Zhang Yeting was half-dead, which also alleviated her pain to a certain extent. But she was still tense, in a state of collapse at any moment.

Qiao Shen knew that Pei Xian was tracking down Qiao Ying, and subconsciously thought that he had found Qiao Ying and had found her to the bottom of it.

Pei Xian tore Qiao Shen's hand away and said, "I met her and Zhang Yeting in the restaurant, and Zhang Yeting said it!"

As soon as Qiao Shen heard the name Zhang Yeting, he turned around angrily: "This scumbag!"

He wants to find Zhang Yeting and chop him up!

Pei Xian's footsteps moved, blocking in front of Qiao Shen, Qiao Shen had a pair of scarlet eyes, and hot air sprayed in his nose: "Get out of the way!"

Pei Xian said: "You want to go to Zhang Yeting, I don't object." But until then, make it all clear!"

Pei Xian's posture is also not giving an inch. He has been hidden for so long, he wants to know the truth!

Qiao Shen gritted his teeth, and when the words came to his mouth, he remembered that Qiao Ying had repeatedly explained that he was not allowed to tell Pei Xian the truth.

He said, "Mr. Pei, what if you know? That's her wound, can you still help her heal?"

Pei Xian was there, and Qiao Shen continued: "You dug up her secret, only to make her more painful. ”

"You're in the past with her. I appreciate your kindness. ”

After speaking, he nodded at Pei Xian, bypassed him and walked out in a hurry.

Pei Xian stood straight and didn't move anymore, clenched his fists, and when Qiao Shen was about to walk to the door, his deep voice sounded: "I want to know ......"

Now, he already knew the reason why Qiao Ying resolutely broke up with him, but he wanted to know more.

"You know, but what can you do?"

A weak, determined woman's voice came from above the stairs. Qiao Ying appeared at the staircase, her face still pale, and she walked down with the handrail of the staircase.

Pei Xian's body stiffened, watching her slowly walk down.

Qiao Ying stood still at the last two steps of the stairs, facing Pei Xian, her expression was as calm and calm as possible, and she laughed at herself and said, "You already know, I was ruined by Zhang Yeting, child...... It's his. ”

Qiao Shen, who was standing by the door, had a confused expression on his face, and he walked back to the stairs, hearing Qiao Ying continue to speak.

"But please don't mention that child in front of anyone, especially Zhang Yeting, he doesn't know about her existence. ”

"I don't want anyone to disturb her life. ”

Finally, Qiao Ying nodded at Pei Xian: "Thank you tonight...... Finally, I would like to ask you one more thing: please don't ask about my business. ”

"We have long been people of two worlds. ”

After speaking, she turned her head to look at Qiao Shen: "Let's go home." ”

Qiao Shen was relieved to see that Qiao Ying woke up so quickly and had returned to normal, and temporarily let go of the idea of going to Zhang Yeting to settle accounts. At the moment, Qiao Ying was the most important, and he helped her to walk out.

Qiao Ying had fallen asleep before, but the faint sandalwood in the air that had not been seen for a long time woke her up. She didn't have time to remember the sweetness, nor did she have time to agonize about the restaurant, she just wanted to get out of here quickly.

Pei Xian already knew about her, what face did she have to be here again.

What's more, with her current status, she can't sleep in this bed anymore.

She heard the sound of talking downstairs, and was afraid of what Qiao Shen would say, so she insisted on walking out despite her physical weakness. She endured her pain, step by step, and God knows how hard it took her to get her back up.

God knows, when she said those words in front of Pei Xian, her heart hurt. She used almost all her strength.

Her dignity, her pride, and her integrity disappeared after Zhang Yeting's words......

Qiao Shen didn't dare to go against Qiao Ying's intentions at this time, didn't say anything, and took Qiao Ying away from the villa in silence.

Pei Xian looked at the figures of the two walking out, clenching his fists.

The door was open, and the night breeze blew in, making him cold. He sat on the steps of the stairs and did not move for a long time.

On the other side, Qiao Shen called a car and went back to the courtyard with Qiao Ying.

At this time, it was already late at night, the Qiao family and his wife went to bed early, and the lights in their room had been extinguished.

Qiao Shen sent Qiao Ying to the door of her room, and Qiao Ying said, "Don't let your parents know." ”

"Hmm. Qiao Shen nodded, and stopped talking, but when he saw Qiao Ying's tired appearance, he couldn't bear to say anything.

"You go take a hot bath, I'll get you something to eat. With that, he turned and walked to the kitchen.

Qiao Ying entered the house, put a full tank of hot water, and sank his whole body into it.

The boiling water enveloped her, as if the pain in her skin could make the pain in her heart less obvious.

There wasn't enough oxygen in her lungs, and she didn't want to come out, so she kept her breathing closed...... I endured it until I couldn't bear it anymore, and then I broke through the water.

Those who should have died are still alive, why should she die?

……

Qiao Shen simply made two bowls of noodles, and the two sisters and brothers sat around a small coffee table.

Qiao Shen saw Qiao Ying eating noodles as if nothing had happened. But they were all born to the same parents, and they grew up together since childhood, the more she is like this, the more uncomfortable Qiao Shen becomes.

He put down the bowl, grabbed Qiao Ying's hand holding the chopsticks and said, "Don't eat it." ”

Qiao Ying looked at him, and Qiao Shen said, "I know what you think in your heart." You don't want to carry it alone, do you think you can?"

Qiao Ying bit her lip, her eyes shaking slightly. Qiao Shen was ruthless, and his face became even more difficult to look at: "You went to see him, why didn't you tell me, why did you go to see him?"

If he was also there, he would definitely not let Zhang Yeting say those words. He'll kill him first!

Qiao Ying said slowly: "He knows that I bought a house and paid off the mortgage on the house. I asked Fu Hanchuan to borrow money and pay it back to him. ”

"Why don't you look for me?" Qiao Shen was stunned, he had worked in the Fu family for so many years, and he had saved a lot of money over the years. At the beginning, she was reluctant to accept it, and insisted on taking out a loan to buy a house by herself, but he couldn't resist her, thinking that it was her intention for Lian Liang, so he let her.

But Zhang Yeting paid off the loan and went out to borrow money with her, which was another matter.

"Am I still your brother?" Qiao Shen was a little angry and let go of Qiao Ying's wrist.

Qiao Ying smiled bitterly: "Even if they are sisters and brothers, they are independent. Qiao Shen, you're almost thirty too, you have your own life-"

Qiao Shen interrupted what she was going to say next, not wanting to drag him down, and said angrily: "I don't have to worry about my affairs." ”

He tilted his head to the side angrily, and the atmosphere froze a little.

After a few seconds, Qiao Shen thought of something, turned his head to look at Qiao Ying again, and said cautiously: "Brother Pei, he ......"

In the past, Qiao Shen saw Pei Xian and called him Brother Pei affectionately, but now in order to keep his distance, he called Mr. Pei. But in private, he still called Pei Xian Brother Pei.

"Today thanks to him. Sister, why don't you tell him the truth? I can see that he ...... to you."

Qiao Ying picked up the chopsticks and interrupted him: "Qiao Shen, don't say it." ”

"He's starting a new life. What can he do if he knows? Can he sympathize with me? Let him let go of his girlfriend and be with someone like me?"

Her fingers clenched. Her past is so dirty, he knows it, and he wants him to return to her, why?

How could he be willing?

What man doesn't want to let go of an innocent woman, find a woman who was forced, raped and gave birth to a child?

So, he knew about her past, and all she could get was his sympathy. And his sympathy, too, is a sharp weapon for her, which will cut her.

Qiao Shen didn't say anything more.

Because it was his sister, he was helpless in addition to being distressed...... Reluctantly accept reality.

But for outsiders, who can accept that their women have such a past?

If it were him, he might not be able to do it. What's more, the Pei family is a famous family, even if Pei Xian can accept it, the Pei family can't accept it.

At this time, Qiao Shen felt that he had almost done something wrong. If Qiao Ying was encouraged by him and gave birth to hope, then the failure of hope would be a bigger blow to her.

Qiao Shen lifted the chopsticks, grabbed the cold noodles and said, "Even if you don't marry for life, I can support you." ”

He had already made a plan, and when his parents grew old in the future, he would not leave Qiao Ying alone.

……

Late at night in 1988 was the beginning of nightlife.

Pei Xian did not return to his apartment after leaving the villa, but went to drink in 1988.

A place that is too quiet will make him think of that woman.

When Mo Fei came back from the tour, he saw Pei Xian sitting alone at the bar and drinking alone. He walked over, put his arm on the bar, asked the bartender for a cocktail, then turned his head to look at Pei Xian and said, "You didn't sleep in the middle of the night and ran here to drink stuffy wine, are you out of love again?"

It is the same as looking at Pei Xian's dull appearance, as if he is out of love.

"What's the matter, Yan Ling doesn't like you to investigate Qiao Ying's affairs and broke up with you?"

Mo Fei knew that Pei Xian was going to go to Daocheng with Yan Ling, and by the way, they lived a fairy life together after work, but Qiao Ying's matter suddenly came out, and the matter was miscarried.

He is a little gloating, Fu Hanchuan has been a good man since he got married, and he stays at home and doesn't go out when he comes back from his honeymoon, so it's boring to watch the scene with the same person.

Pei Xian shook his shoulders and shook off Mo Feitong's hand. He took a sip of the whiskey and rested the empty glass on the bar, causing the ice cubes to pop off the glass.

Mo Fei glanced at the ice cubes that collided together, and he had a big temper tonight.

You must know that Pei Xian's emotional management has always been in place, and he was suddenly like this, just like when he was dumped by Qiao Ying.

"One more drink. Pei Xian instructed the bartender, ignoring it.

It was the same as pinching the thin leg of the cocktail, and the wine glass was pressed to his lips and looked at Pei Xian slowly.

Pei Xian's arms were propped up on the bar table, his head was lowered, and his eyebrows were frowning into a pimple, as if a volcano had been buried in his heart, and he didn't know when it would erupt.

Qiao Ying's matter, he can't mention it to anyone, and he is depressed and confused, making it difficult for him to let go like this.

But she had nothing to do with him anymore, and he had no position to pursue everything about her.

In her mind, he was probably just curious about what had happened to her.

Pei Xian himself was also confused, as she said, he knew, what could he do?

And he already knew that that person was Zhang Yeting, and the remaining entanglement was also between her and Zhang Yeting. What can he do?

He should stop here and get back on his track.

The sane side told him that he should do it. But on the other hand, he clearly felt that he couldn't do it.

His mind was filled with the way she had broken down, her screams, her painful struggles.

They were a couple at that time, since Zhang Yeting loved her, how could he be strong against her?

Pei Xian thought of Zhang Yeting's polite appearance, but when he was in the restaurant, he clearly grabbed Qiao Ying tightly and refused to let go, and finally did not hesitate to disclose Qiao Ying's past. That person was manic, and he hit her and drove her crazy?

Pei Xian's head hurt, and he grabbed the wine handed over by the bartender and drank it all again.

Looking at his drinking posture, he didn't dare to hang his son anymore. He thought of something and asked, "Did you find out something about Qiao Ying?"

Pei Xian clenched his fists and turned his head to look at Mo Feitong: "Why did you suspect that the kid was not Zhang Yeting's before?"

Mo Fei was stunned, and then said, "Qiao Ying is going to kill that person." He thought of Qiao Ying's murderous face at that time, and his body trembled.

In the past, some people often joked that when looking for a woman, you should never look for someone who studies medicine, especially a surgeon, and at that time I was deeply touched.

That kind of ruthlessness is not something that ordinary people can do.

He said: "What do you think the child's mother will be like in the little girl's heart when she kills the child's father?"

Pei Xian stood up and said, "That's his child." She admits it. ”

With that, he turned and walked out.

She hated Zhang Yeting and dealt with him because she didn't recognize the child, and Zhang Yeting didn't know the existence of the child.

The child is in the Lian family, and the Lian couple treats her like their own, Qiao Ying is relieved when she knows this. She wants to protect her children, that's all......

Mo Feitong watched Pei Xian staggered out, his brows furrowed.

Is that kid really Zhang Yeting's?

……

In the apartment, as soon as Pei Xian opened the door, the room was filled with a faint light, and the room was dim. He looked up at the ceiling and remembered that the lights were all off when he went out.

In the living room, Yan Ling nestled in the sofa, heard footsteps, opened her eyelids dimly, and saw Pei Xian coming back, she rubbed her eyelids and said sleepily: "Are you back......?"

Pei Xian took off his coat and put it on the armrest of the sofa: "When did you come back?"

Yan Ling said: "It didn't take long. Seeing that you are not at home, I slept for a while. ”

She came back after finishing the work on the Daocheng side, and God knows that she hadn't slept more than five hours in a long time. After the work was over, she took the plane back alone, and the working group, including Jiang Shu, stayed in Daocheng and will not return until tomorrow.

Pei Xian looked at her with a tired face, frowned slightly and said, "I'm back, why don't you have a good rest?"

Yan Ling sniffed, smelled the obvious smell of wine on Pei Xian's body, and asked, "Did you go to 1988?"

"Hmm. Pei Xian poured a glass of water, and Yan Ling didn't say anything more, 1988 was a frequent place for several of them.

She took out a small black wooden box from her bag, handed it to Pei Xian, and said, "Huh." ”

Pei Xian glanced at it: "What is this?"

"Just open it and see. Yan Ling nodded her chin at the box.

Pei Xian opened it as he said, and there was a dzi inside. Yan Ling said: "I met a monk from Tibet there, and he said that my singing voice was the voice of the sky, so he gave me this. ”

Pei Xian said: "Since someone gave it to you, what are you going to do for me?"

In Tibet, dzi is a very precious sacred relic, and the monks have worn it, and it has a different meaning.

He returned the box.

Yan Ling drank the water, shook her head and said, "It's not for you, it's for Miss Qiao." ”

Pei Xian glanced at her, and Yan Ling said, "What do you think I do like this." Think I'm pretending to be atmospheric?"

She smiled, reached out and touched the dzi and said, "Miss Qiao is in trouble, I hope this holy relic can give her a disaster." ”

She thought of giving this dzi to Qiao Ying, it was really not a side-knock to remind Pei Xian of his position.

When the monk gave her the dzi, he said that he saw her haunted by evil spirits and hoped to bless her. Yan Ling didn't believe in those things, but thinking that Qiao Ying was in prison, she felt that this was more suitable for her.

At this time, Yan Ling was just standing in the position of knowing her, and she didn't want her to have anything to do.

Besides, Qiao Ying's matter is solved, and Pei Xian has no intersection with her, right?

Pei Xian closed the box, put it on the coffee table and said, "You can go and give it to her yourself." ”

Yan Ling smiled: "If I send it, will she accept it?"

That day in the detention center, Qiao Ying was very hostile to her, and she was not to the point of being bored with herself.

What's more, the ex and the current two women are together, and she gives each other something like something.

Not wanting Pei Xian to continue the topic, she asked instead, "By the way, how is Miss Qiao's affairs?"

When Qiao Ying was really discussed, Yan Ling felt her nervousness. She left Beicheng for so long, and Pei Xian stayed to help Qiao Ying on purpose.

They...... Will there be a revival of old love?

She looked at Pei Xian, observed his expression, and slowly rubbed the water glass with both hands.

Pei Xian said lightly: "It has been solved." ”

"Oh. Yan Ling nodded, she didn't ask questions.

She puts herself in a reasonable position, neither overly interfering, but also not indifferent.

But it also felt a little strange for her to settle things so quickly.

Pei Xian's expression was calm, she couldn't see anything, so she picked up her handbag and said, "I should go back, you can rest." ”

When she stood up, her expression shifted slightly, as if she wanted to ask something, but in the end she didn't say anything.

Seeing that she was leaving, Pei Xian stood up and said, "I'll send you." ”

Yan Ling smiled slightly, suddenly raised her arms and wrapped her arms around his neck and said, "I thought you would keep me." ”

Pei Xian was slightly stunned, stroked her hair and said, "You have been busy for so many days, I see that you have lost so much weight." ”

The corners of Yan Ling's lips were still smiling, but the smile on the corners of her lips was a little stiff. But it was only for a moment, she let go of her hand, and her smile did not hide her exhaustion: "I'm tired, send me back." ”

Pei Xian sent Yan Ling downstairs, called a car, and sent her back to her residence.

In the car, the hands of the two were clasped together, Yan Ling turned his head to look at Pei Xian, his eyes were closed, his brows were slightly raised, and his breath in the air smelled of alcohol.

Yan Ling pursed her lips, and finally couldn't help asking, "Pei Xian, when I got off the plane, I called you, didn't you hear it?"

The working group did not book a plane ticket until today, she finished her work, and wanted to see Pei Xian quickly, and luckily bought a refund ticket, which could arrive in Beicheng tonight.

She wanted to surprise him, but when she got off the plane, she was too tired, so she took a taxi to his apartment first and called him when she was in the car.

When a woman is shrewd, she is very wise.

Pei Xian went to 1988, if he just drank and relaxed with his friends, he couldn't have looked at his mobile phone without looking at it. In this day and age, who doesn't have nothing to do with their mobile phone?

He didn't see her phone, which only meant that he wasn't in that relaxed state, and that something else was taking over his mind.

Pei Xian opened his eyes slightly, took out his mobile phone and looked at it, the indicator light was dim. He pressed the unlock button, but the phone screen didn't light up.

He said: "There is no power, I forgot to charge it." ”

When he said this, he was slightly relieved in his heart, and even a little happy.

Yan Ling gently tugged at the corner of her lower lip and did not continue to chase after it. She lowered her eyes to look at the hands they were clasping together, and she held him with a little force.

is still the same sentence, if he has ever looked at his mobile phone, he will know that his mobile phone is out of battery. There was a charger over there in 1988, and with his status, it was impossible for him to keep his phone turned off.

The car stopped under Yan Ling's apartment, Yan Ling glanced at the man sitting next to her, leaned over and kissed him on the lips, and said with a smile: "I'm going home, good night......"
