"It's in my hands. ”

So far, Liu Xia has nothing to hide, so she is just open and honest:

"But, I really can't give it to you. ”

"Why?"

"Once it is announced to the world, Gao Yecheng will also know about my existence, with his character, even if he digs me up, he will dig me out, I know that I can't stand that kind of life, and I don't want this recording to come out, and then the people I cared about before will be hurt. ”

After she finished speaking, she stared at Ji Ran, affectionate, sad and stubborn.

"I know you want to help your brother find justice, and I also hope to be able to help you, but I hope you can also understand me, I have been hiding for so many years, just hoping that Gao Yecheng will not know about my existence, so he will not touch my family. You're right, I really hate this kind of life, but if I can buy my family's peace by hiding like this, then I'm willing. ”

"Are you really, already decided?" asked Ji Ran.

Liu Xia nodded:

"I'm sorry, I can't help you, everyone has their own concerns. ”

"Okay, I got it. ”

When Ji Ran heard this, he knew that there would be no result if he continued to dwell on it, so he simply ended the conversation.

"Let's go. ”

She said to Bai Xingchen, the other party put down the cup in her hand and smiled at Liu Xia, followed behind Ji Ran, and the two walked out.

"I just listened to Liu Xia's words, does she have children? said that she didn't want her family to be harmed, I guess she was talking about her children. ”

They walked out of the way, Ji Ran, who had been silent, suddenly asked, and then Bai Xingchen nodded:

"Well, I heard her mention that she has a daughter, and after the accident, she only went to see her a few times from afar, and she didn't dare to approach her at all. ”

"I can't understand why she thinks it's good for her daughter, maybe people just like to be with her mother and don't care about getting into trouble. ”

"Everyone is different, and from her point of view, there may be more concerns. ”

Bai Xingchen pondered for a moment and answered her, Ji Ran listened to it and said:

"Yes, let's think about it again. ”

She took the helmet handed over by Bai Xingchen, put it on her head, and stepped into the back seat. In the night, the sound of motorcycles sounded, speeding away from the alley until it was nowhere to be seen.

***

Ji Ran sneaked into a hidden café through the side door, found the number of the private room, lifted the curtain and walked in. As soon as she sat down, she took off her mask and saw Xiang Yunxin with a worried expression.

Ji Ran looked at her, was in a better mood, and smiled at her comfortingly.

"I'm fine. ”

At this point in time, I still want to come to see her, Ji Ran is actually quite moved. Originally, I didn't plan to tell too many people that I was in a difficult situation now, but who knows, Xiang Yunxin called by himself.

The other party cared so much about himself, Ji Ran thought about it and agreed to the other party's invitation to meet.

Xiang Yunxin looked at Ji Ran's face that although he was smiling, he was still a little haggard, and he didn't feel very comfortable. Ji Ran hadn't contacted her for a long time before, which made her a little worried. Later, I accidentally learned that Ji Ran was actually fired from the newspaper. It took her a lot of effort to find out that the reason why Ji Ran suddenly disappeared was related to Gao Yecheng's suppression.

Xiang Yunxin was worried for a long time before she contacted Ji Ran, and she wanted to meet her no matter what, because she felt that she might be able to help.

"Sister Ranran, you've been tired lately, haven't you?"

She asked cautiously, for fear that she would make Ji Ran sad by saying the wrong thing. Ji Ran was not as fragile as she thought, feeling the caution and temptation in her tone, and also knowing the thoughts in this little girl's heart, she smiled more calmly.

"Tiredness is definitely there, but it's not a big deal, don't worry, I'm still in good spirits. ”

She is really relaxed now, Xiang Yunxin saw her situation, and was a little relieved, thinking about how to say what she wanted to say.

Ji Ran saw her entanglement, so he directly asked for him:

"Is there something wrong with being in such a hurry to find me today?"

There was no displeasure in her tone, and Xiang Yunxin simply followed her words and said:

"Sister Ranran, I heard that you have been messing with you recently, have you provoked ,,, Gao Yecheng?"

"How do you know?" Ji Ran didn't deny it, but she was still surprised, because even if Xiang Yunxin had some entanglements with Gao Jiaze, as a student, she really shouldn't know these things.

"I ,,, overheard it, once I went to the newspaper office to look for you, and I heard someone else discussing. ”

A group of people with broken mouths, Ji Ran complained in his heart, and he was still kind to Xiang Yunxin:

"So, you're worried that something is going to happen to me, and you're trying to make sure I'm okay today, how is it?"

She said jokingly, in fact, she was really touched in her heart.

Xiang Yunxin nodded first, and then shook his head, as if he was thinking about something. Ji Ran knew that she had always been a tangled and introverted person, but now she must have fallen into a tangle, so she didn't ask, took a sip of water, and waited for Xiang Yunxin to speak.

After about a few minutes, Xiang Yunxin finally organized the language and said to Ji Ran:

"Actually, I came to you today, in addition to wanting to confirm whether you are safe, I also want to tell you that if you need help, I will definitely do my best to help you. ”

Ji Ran smiled, although he was very moved in his heart, but he also knew that Xiang Yunxin was just an ordinary little girl, and now he was afraid that it was just a righteous statement, so he just smiled and responded, but he didn't take it to heart.

Xiang Yunxin naturally knew that Ji Ran was just talking, and she was a little panicked, and added a few more words:

"Sister Ranran, I know that I really don't have the ability to help you, but my brother, my brother works in Gao Yecheng's company, I heard that it seems to be pretty good, I can ask him to help you say a few words. ”

Ji Ran was still noncommittal, after all, Gao's enterprises were all over the country, and it was not impossible for Xiang Yunxin's brother to work in it, but Gao Yecheng was the kind of person, how could he listen to the words of a subordinate, so he was just like comforting a child, and couldn't bear to see Xiang Yunxin's disappointed expression, and asked casually:

"Well, I just don't know your brother's name? ”

"My brother's name is Xiang Sibo. ”

As soon as these three words came out, Ji Ran was stunned and didn't come back to his senses for a long time.

Xiang Yunxin, Xiang Sibo, oh my God, she actually ignored such an important thing. Now when I heard Xiang Yunxin mention it, the things I had experienced before were rewound one by one, and I found that there was already a connection.

No wonder, when Xiang Yunxin had an accident last time, the Gao family could appear so quickly; no wonder, after that, Gao Jiaze rarely came to pester Xiang Yunxin; no wonder, Xiang Yunxin would suddenly say that to her at the beginning.

"When you said to me, 'If you pursue self-esteem, you will put your family in danger,' did you mean your brother?"

Xiang Yunxin clasped his hands, remembered the somewhat unbearable memories of the past, and said hatefully: "Yes." ”

Ji Ran rubbed his hair, and suddenly became a little entangled.

She admitted that when Xiang Yunxin mentioned Xiang Sibo, she had some dangerous thoughts in her heart, maybe it could really help her turn defeat into victory, but this method may still be a little cruel to some people.

She looked at Xiang Yunxin, thought for a long time, and finally opened her mouth with some astringent difficulty:

"Yunxin, I want to ask you a question. ”

"Well, you say. ”

Xiang Yunxin also keenly felt her seriousness, and intuitively felt that the next words would be very important, so he unconsciously leaned forward and said:

"Well, you say. ”

Ji Ran stared into her eyes and asked her word by word:

"Do you hate Gao Jiaze?"

Xiang Yunxin, who was suddenly scarred, tightened her heart, and her face turned pale instantly, but soon, hatred appeared on her face, little by little, occupying her entire face, and then she said:

"It's more than hatred, I now wish he would be punished every day. ”

"Then, if I can get him punished, only to reveal your sadness, will you hate me?"

"Sister Ji Ran, you told me so openly and honestly, in fact, I can guess what you want to say. In fact, I have been asking myself all the time why I have to shut up when someone else has done something wrong. Why is it that I was hurt, but it seems that I have done something wrong. I know that if others know about this, there may be discussions and accusations, but I am really not afraid now, because it is not me who did wrong, I am not wrong, and I should not feel ashamed of being known. ”

She said it very calmly, but it made Ji Ran a little sad. She reached out and rubbed Xiang Yunxin's hair, and said softly:

"Yes, it's not your fault, you shouldn't have low self-esteem and shame at all, do a good job. ”

Xiang Yunxin raised his eyes to look at her, his eyes full of tears.

"Sister Ji Ran, do you want to find my brother?"

Ji Ran paused and nodded.

"Actually, I haven't seen him for a long time, if you see him, can you tell him that my grandmother and I don't need much money, I just hope that he can be safe, come back to us, and live a peaceful and stable life together. I really miss him. ”

"Good. Ji Ran nodded, paused, and continued:

"I promise you that I will tell him what you think, and I will definitely let you get the treatment you deserve, so that the person who hurts you and hurts me will get the punishment he deserves. ”

Xiang Yunxin looked at her, smiled, and his eyes were soft:

"I've always believed in you. ”

She knew what Ji Ran wanted to do, and she also knew what she might have to pay, but it was just relaxed, what Gao Jiaze did to her at the beginning made her fall into a swamp, doubting herself anytime and anywhere, and later, slowly, she felt that she shouldn't be so curled up and didn't dare to speak, dare not argue, dare not speak, she didn't want to be a silent rabbit anymore, and this time, what Ji Ran wanted to do may be an opportunity for her to make another decision.

"Sister Ji Ran, you and my brother must be safe. ”

As she spoke, she handed over a piece of paper with a string of numbers written on it.
