Chapter 45: Eavesdropping

That night, Zhou Yang insisted on keeping a wake for his grandfather. Xie Jianming's body was parked in the lobby of the Xie family's mansion, which had been set up into a temporary mourning hall by the funeral service staff who had been invited.

In the center of the spacious lobby is a coffin, and on the wall is a pair of elegiac couplets: "Indifferent to the world, still showing a righteous spirit and two sleeves of the breeze, often thinking about virtue and crying for the father; leisurely across the crane, looking at the starry sky and half a crescent moon, wanting to go to the Yao Pond will be green plums", in the middle is a large posthumous photo of Xie Jianming, which is pasted with the word "Lay" of Douda.

On the long offering table, wrist-thick white ash burns all night, and incense burners, lotus lamps, fruits, flowers, and so on are placed.

Night baby Ning Zhidao couldn't persuade Zhou Yang, so he had to follow Xie Junrou's instructions and personally send him a thin blanket to avoid catching a cold at night.

As soon as she stepped into the mourning hall, although she was mentally prepared, she was still startled by the striking whiteness.

Zhou Yang is still in a wheelchair, the plaster on his leg has not been removed, he can't bend, and it is very inconvenient to walk.

Facing his red and swollen eyes, Ye Ying Ning sighed slightly, covered him with the thin blanket in his hand, and said softly: "You haven't eaten much at night, do you want to eat a little supper?" I see that Auntie was preparing in the kitchen just now. ”

Zhou Yang shook his head and refused, and asked her to go back to the room first, now the Xie family is in chaos, and no one can take care of anyone.

In addition to the immediate children, from the evening onwards, there were already some other relatives and friends from the family who had arrived. On the surface, he came to offer condolences and condolences, but in fact, he also used this to explore the fate of the Xie family in the future and figure out who the new helmsman of the Xie family was as soon as possible.

"You've been here all night?"

Ye Ying Ning asked, thought about it, sat down on the sofa beside him, and said in a low voice: "I'll stay with you for a while, and I'll go back to the room after 12 o'clock." ”

Zhou Yang didn't say anything, nodded, neither of them spoke, and silence quickly returned to the mourning hall.

She supported her head with one hand, and her body was tired from running around all day, and Ye Ying Ning didn't even know how she fell asleep, and she was woken up by freezing at the end.

At this time, Nanping is very cold and damp, not as good as Zhonghai, although there is central air conditioning in the villa, but because of the parking of the corpse, the temperature is slightly lower.

Ye Ying Ning sat up and found that the thin blanket she had given to Zhou Yang was covering her at the moment, she was stunned for a moment, only to find that Zhou Yang was no longer in the mourning hall, and she was the only one left in the huge empty hall.

She got up quickly, shivered, and glanced at her watch, which was already past eleven o'clock at night.

Ye Ying Ning didn't dare to make a loud noise, and walked upstairs with his memory, the Xie family was not silent at the moment, there were people in almost every guest room, most of them were relatives in the family who rushed to hear the news, and the workers at home walked around the stairwell with bedding, and arranged for everyone to stay.

She searched for room by room, and went from the second floor to the third floor, which was noticeably quieter than the downstairs, and was the master's bedroom.

Although she knew that it was a little inappropriate for Lu Dao to rush to the third floor like this, but in the completely unfamiliar Xie Mansion, Zhou Yang was the only person Ye Yingning was familiar with at this moment, and she desperately hoped to find him, at least she would have some sense of security.

was thinking to himself, and before he knew it, Ye Ying Ning had already walked to the door of a bedroom, and the Xie family's room looked exactly the same from the outside, with a mahogany carved door, and the two sides of the corridor were diagonally symmetrical.

She stopped in front of the door, and it was difficult to distinguish for a while, and just wanted to find a worker to ask clearly, when she suddenly caught a glimpse of the door in front of her, which was not closed tightly, and a gap was exposed.

There seemed to be someone talking inside, and a faint voice came from there.

It's a pity that the night baby standing in the corridor can't really hear it. She knew very well that she was now standing on the edge of the thunder pool, and the most appropriate action was to turn around and leave, turn a deaf ear, and do not listen to indecent behavior.

However, curiosity can kill cats, and women's curiosity is even better, otherwise, where did the legend of Pandora's Box come from?!

Night Infant Ning looked around, and the corridor was so quiet that she could hear a needle on the ground, and there was no one else except her.

She tried to step forward, and walked to the door in two steps, her ears pressed against the door, holding her breath.

Sure enough, she heard it right, someone was indeed talking, the voice was very familiar, she only listened to a few words, and she was sure that the person who was talking was Zhou Yang.

It was as if he was talking to himself, because no one had been responding to him.

“…… Although the whole thing was an accident within an accident, I still couldn't let go of ......."

“…… It's also very sad to see you like this......"

“…… My mom she does ......."

"Wouldn't it be nice if one day you could stand up and we could go to the beach together like we did when we were kids......"

“……”

The intermittent words came, and Zhou Yang's speed of speech has always been slow, and this moment is no exception. He seemed to be reminiscing and talking, and his tone was very low, and it sounded like it contained grief.

Ye Ying Ning was very stunned, connected the information before and after, and deduced that the person in the room should be Zhou Yang's cousin Xie Yao.

Xie Junrou said that Xie Yao is the only boy of the Xie family's generation, and he is the pride of heaven in the eyes of the whole family, one year older than Zhou Yang, and has been cultivated by Xie Jianming and Xie Juntang as the heir of the family since he was a child.

However, Xie Yao's personality is very perverse, and he is a well-known son in Nanping, but his interest is not in women or gambling, but in racing.

Nanping's underground racing cars have always been very powerful, even the government can not completely eradicate them, modified cars can be seen everywhere, with REZI, BORE, SUBARU, LANEVO, CIVIV, Fit and so on. Every nightfall, at nine or ten o'clock, there will be roaring modified sports cars and motorcycles on the main road of Nanping from time to time, starting a contest of speed and passion.

Among them, Xie Yao is a hero in the eyes of countless racing drivers, he is young, handsome, rich, spends a lot of money, and is domineering in speed. He was once able to run 33 kilometers in 13 minutes and reach a speed of more than 150 kilometers per hour, which is said to be the fastest amateur rider in the whole of Nanping and even in the mainland.

But it is such a legendary character of extreme speed, but he was in an accident in an underground racing competition, and after several days and nights of rescue, although he finally came back to life, he became a completely vegetative person.

Because underground racing itself is illegal, illegal drag racing on the road, illegal modification of vehicles, etc. can be punished, so the Xie family behaved extremely low-key after Xie Yao's accident, did not overly verify the situation at the time, but focused all their energy on rescue.

After the worst, after a complex investigation and evidence collection, the police came to a conclusion: the modified car driven by Xie Yao that night, after the power was forcibly raised, the bearing in the turbocharger broke at high speed, causing the modified car to suddenly stop and catch fire after hitting the guardrail.

In the past, Ye Ying Ning basically heard about it from Xie Junrou's mouth.

Because of this, Xie Jianming hoped that Zhou Yang could change jobs, return to Nanping, and enter the Xie family business several times after that.

But if you can't figure out anything, then think about who can benefit after this happens, and maybe you can't figure it out.

Such a sentence suddenly flashed in his mind, and Ye Ying Ning was stunned in place, as if he completely understood the ins and outs of the whole thing!
