In the rental house in the development zone, Liu Xingchen found an old photo album, which was all family photos of Ai Mengmeng when she was a child, including Ai Zheng and Jiang Hong when she was young, as well as Ai Mengmeng's grandfather and grandmother. For her grandmother, Liu Xingchen has a general impression in his mind, which is pieced together by her words, and I remember that she said that her grandmother is the best for her in the world. In the last few pages of the album were a number of notes that he recognized in his own handwriting, one of which read: The cauliflower-headed wig is crooked!

Liu Xingchen couldn't help but snort, remembering that he often secretly passed notes in class at that time, and he didn't believe that he used to be so gossipy. He put the notes away and took the album to Jiang Hong.

He knew that deep in Ai Mengmeng's heart, the breakdown of the family was a wound that would be difficult to heal, and the last time he met in the detention center, from what she said, he could deeply feel her self-abandonment, and he thought, even if he got her out, she would still be a traitor if she couldn't keep her mentality. After some thought, he no longer ran around like a headless fly, and if he wanted to help her, he had to solve her problem at the root. He finally found out that it wasn't all because of Wu Jiao that she didn't want to get married, which made him breathe a sigh of relief.

Liu Xingchen came to the office building of the Liying main store and knocked on the office door of the general manager. Jiang Hong personally came to open the door for him and asked in surprise: "Xingchen, why are you here?" Is there a new development in the case? ”

"No, I found a photo album of Ai Mengmeng's childhood, and I think you should need it." He said as he handed over the album.

Jiang Hong was very excited, and when she turned the first page, she saw a cute child's face and a pair of immature eyes, and at that moment, her hands trembled a little. Today is a few volts, and it is very hot outside, Liu Xingchen poured a glass of boiled water from the water dispenser by himself. Jiang Hong's eyes stared at the old photo album, and he didn't turn to the blank page at the end before he woke up from a person's world in a trance: "Oh, thank you." ”

Liu Xingchen smiled and said, "No thanks, this is what I should do." By the way, Aunt Jiang, I have a question I don't know whether to ask or not, why did you divorce Uncle Ai back then? ”

Jiang Hong smiled: "Hehe, in fact, there was a lot of uproar during the divorce, and the reason is that relatives and friends know that I didn't get along with her grandmother, and that family couldn't tolerate me, and then I had an affair, so I divorced her father." ”

"Oh, that's right." Liu Xingchen nodded, took a sip of water, and asked, "Then why do you only have one daughter?" ”

Jiang Hong said: "I got married three times later, but I don't want to have any more children, I look at marriage very lightly, I feel that having children is a burden, and it is too painful when I divorce, maybe because of this, I and my three husbands are not too long." ”

Liu Xingchen nodded, thought about it, and said: "Aunt Jiang, I proposed to Ai Mengmeng, but she repeatedly rejected me, at first I thought she was thinking about the child in Wu Jiao's belly, but later I found out that it was not exactly like that, she had greater concerns." ”

"Oh?" Jiang Hong listened with interest.

Liu Xingchen continued: "The reasons are very complicated, and I think it has a lot to do with her family environment. ”

Jiang Hong nodded in agreement.

"Ai Mengmeng has become like this, and it is also the reason for the family, please forgive me, Aunt Jiang, it was you parents who ruined her."

Jiang Hong nodded frequently: "No, no, what you said makes sense, I know I ruined her." ”

Liu Xingchen's tone became more tactful: "I'm not here to complain about you, the matter has come to this point, I know you want to make amends, but this kind of compensation can't just be in terms of material and legal aid, but also do something for her mentally." I want her to be happy, maybe I was too naïve before, I promised her over and over again, it was just my wishful thinking, she always had a knot in her heart that could not be untied, only by opening this knot, she could accept me, now I finally know what it is, if one day she sees her parents reunited, I think it will heal her huge wounds in her heart, and she will become confident in her life and marriage. That's what I want to say. ”

Jiang Hong frowned slightly, and there were many complicated emotions in her eyes.

Liu Xingchen stood up: "Aunt Jiang, I'll go first, I have something to find Lawyer Zhou." ”

Jiang Hong nodded as if waking up from a dream and said, "Oh...... Good...... Good ......"

It is a very painful thing for an old person to go through the condemnation of conscience for his daughter's crime, Liu Xingchen felt unbearable for his outspokenness, but he knew that this was necessary to save Ai Mengmeng. Liu Xingchen vaguely remembered that Lingling inadvertently revealed to him a purchase channel that night, and he remembered early this morning that he had to do his best to tell Lawyer Zhou about it.

When he came to the law firm, he actually saw Wu Jiao, it was Wu Jiao contacted by Lawyer Zhou, as Ai Mengmeng's lawyer, her educational background and family environment are first-hand information that must be mastered, but why she dropped out of school, how she dropped out of school, and how she embarked on the road of crime, this requires the testimony of more than two witnesses, but at this time, the classmates have nothing to do with themselves, and only Wu Jiao is willing to come forward. Liu Xingchen and Wu Jiao gestured awkwardly, just as they said hello.

For the conviction of the instigator, there must be a confession from both parties, although the little pigeon has not been detained and interrogated by the public security organs now, but lawyer Zhou can collect evidence from the side through other people, today Liu Xingchen and Wu Jiao are here, and the testimony of the two people is very convincing. They all remember that night seven years ago vividly, and the scene they saw on the street of the bar is also vivid, and the details they said are basically the same, because Ai Mengmeng was only 16 years old at the time, and she was instigated to commit a crime, and she can be mitigated or exempted from punishment, but the problem is that Ai Mengmeng has not stopped this criminal activity in the past seven years, so her criminal responsibility cannot be completely exempted.

After hearing Lawyer Zhou's explanation, Liu Xingchen was very disappointed. Seeing his expression dim for an instant, Wu Jiao couldn't say anything comforting to him, she knew that no matter what she said, he would feel that it was hypocrisy.

When leaving the law firm, one of them took the stairs and the other took the elevator, but they happened to encounter it under the rain at the door, and it was raining a little outside, Wu Jiao took out an umbrella from her bag, opened it, blocked his view, and walked past him. Liu Xingchen said, "How did you come here?" ”

Wu Jiao was a little surprised, while removing the umbrella, he saw his face under the light blue umbrella cover, his eyes were so lost, as if he had just heard the bad news of his distant relatives, Ai Mengmeng's imprisonment hit him so hard, at this moment, Wu Jiao finally understood his feelings for Ai Mengmeng, in his heart, there have never been two choices, there have never been two lives, somehow, Wu Jiao was suddenly very grateful for all the good he had done to him in the past years, that was extra pay, no return for pay, It is also a kind of forbearance love, a great love.

It's rare to have rainy weather in dog days, and it's cool to not have air conditioning in the car, if not, Wu Jiao can only refuse his kindness to squeeze the bus, this may be the last time he will send her home, the journey is not far, not very close, the ride is not too long, not too short, just to talk face-to-face, he intends to give her a chance to speak, but she doesn't know where to start. Halfway down the road, he finally couldn't help but ask, "Isn't it time to say what you want to say to me?" ”

Wu Jiao looked at his polite side face, wanted to speak and stopped, when she just got into the car, she found that there was an English book thrown on the wide back seat, that is the book he said he was going to send her, it seemed that he wanted to send it to her but was delayed by something, indeed, that night, he ran out of the hospital, braved the rain, drove the car, just to deliver the book, he came with the purpose of saving her soul, but he didn't expect to only rescue her*. From beginning to end, he didn't deceive her, she was deceiving herself.

Wu Jiao was silent for a while, and after thinking about it a lot, the words she said were very jumpy: "If it weren't for me, wouldn't Ai Mengmeng have come to this day?" ”

"What do you mean?" He asked.

Wu Jiao lowered her head and looked at her bulging lower abdomen: "If I hadn't said that sentence that day, wouldn't you have given up on her?" ”

"I still don't understand."

Wu Jiao said: "You know, I have made it clear enough, who doesn't understand, you understand." ”

Liu Xingchen took off the polarizer, rubbed his eyebrows, and put it back on. The windows were open, the cool breeze from the outside poured in, the car was not hot at all, there was not even a passing car on the highway, it was as quiet as a familiar street many years ago. He said, "Let's do something to forget about her, is that it?" ”

Wu Jiao was noncommittal.

He sighed deeply: "What's the point of talking about this now. ”

Wu Jiao said: "I was really sad at that time, and I never even wanted to see her again. ”

Liu Xingchen said: "Me too." ”

Wu Jiao said: "But I know you will never forget her, I knew it then." ”

He said, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have taken advantage of you. ”

Wu Jiao said: "Don't say I'm sorry, there's nothing to use or not to use, at that time, we were not sensible, I believe you don't want to use me, in fact, I have self-knowledge, for you, if you want to use a woman to forget about Jì Ai Mengmeng, you don't need to use a woman like me at all, you will be with me, just because I am her best friend." ”

"Wu Jiao......" Liu Xingchen slowed down the car and turned his face to look at her: "Even if I haven't loved you, you don't need to belittle yourself to elevate me." I did take advantage of you, not initially, of course, but later, if you don't believe it. You must not think of me as so noble and perfect, I am actually a very selfish person, I have hurt everyone around me, but I only want to make up for Ai Mengmeng, maybe this is my selfishness. ”

Wu Jiao looked at him, her vision blurred a little: "Senior, I really loved you, so, don't break my fairy tale, okay?" ”

Liu Xingchen looked at her for a long time and nodded: "Okay." ”

His voice was still quiet. A dark cloud drifted overhead, bringing a dense light rain. He closed the window, and the space in the car suddenly became silent.

Wu Jiao said: "I decided not to get married, I will go and explain to my parents and your parents, you don't have to worry about this matter, you must help Ai Mengmeng get through this difficulty, I am waiting for your news." ”

Liu Xingchen was really surprised when he heard these words.

After the rain had passed, he watched her get out of the car and into the wooden fence of the farmhouse's courtyard, beside the green vegetable patch, she crouched down, put a small wildflower to her nose and sniffed it, and then she walked briskly back into the house.

He looked back at the book on the saddle and felt the need to give it to her.

Three months later, Wu Jiaoshun gave birth to a lovely baby boy named Wu Ranran.

Half a year later, Wu Jiao and Cui Xiaokai held a wedding, and Wu Ranran changed his name to Cui Ranran.

A year later, Ai Zheng and Jiang Hong remarried.

Two years later, Ai Mengmeng was released from prison early due to her outstanding appearance.

When she was serving a year and a half in prison, she heard the news of her parents' remarriage, and later Ai Zheng and Jiang Hong came to visit the prison together, and the reconciliation of her parents completely healed the wounds of her soul, in their loving smiles, Ai Mengmeng saw the hope of life, although she was in prison, she felt happier than ever.

On the day she was released from prison, she changed into her original clothes, and she still had half a pack of cigarettes in her trouser pocket, but she had already quit smoking, and the two years of prison life made her understand a lot of life principles, and the second-rate habits that she had developed for more than 20 years could no longer see a shadow from her, and the habit of swearing was completely changed.

Liu Xingchen came to pick her up. At the gate of the prison, he saw her standing there crying from a distance, which was so unexpected to him, he remembered that she didn't cry when the court pronounced the verdict. She stood only a few meters away from him, constantly wiping her red and swollen eyes with the back of her hand, as if she had suffered a lot of grievances in prison, and as if she was reluctant to give up on a place like prison. Liu Xingchen hurriedly got out of the car, ran over, hugged her, and put his lips on her forehead: "My God, why are you crying?" Haven't you been waiting for a long time? ”

Ai Mengmeng shook her head: "No." ”

Liu Xingchen stroked the back of her head distressedly: "Okay, okay, don't cry, don't cry, tell me what's going on?" ”

Ai Mengmeng stuffed her nose and said, "Can't you cry if you're fine?" ”

She still loves to lift the bar so much, and the temper of the cannon barrel has not diminished back then, even if those little problems have changed, this is a character, and it is estimated that she will not be able to change it in a lifetime, right? But now he is very satisfied, they seem to have returned to the past, just like the little couple quarreled without a feeling of rustiness at all, after all, they have known each other for twelve years, so many things have happened in these twelve years, and most of the time they really spend together is quarrelling, and there are still many unknowns in the future life, if you can't enjoy the fun of quarrelling, wouldn't it be too wasteful.

He stood at the prison gate with her in his arms and cried for a while, and when he got to the car, she took the initiative to lie in his arms and cry for a while. He asked her why she was crying, but she would not say.

In the end, she finally whispered to him in her ear: "Senior, I don't want to be separated from you again." ”

He has been waiting for this sentence for twelve years.

Their wedding is scheduled for October, and Liu Xingchen has bought a new house in the development zone, which is being renovated intensively. Ai Mengmeng is slowly adapting to her bed, and in addition, she has to go out on a date with him every day and make up for her high-school love before marriage, because Liu Xingchen threatened to chase her again!

The above is their childish love story.

Life can not have any ten years, but it cannot be without willful youth, let us cheer for the impeccable youth sacrifice!

At this point, the whole drama of "Stealing Hearts, Impeccable Youth Sacrifice" ends.
