When Qiao Yixia returned to the hotel, Lu Xifei was already asleep. She was curled up on the bed without a quilt, her eyelashes fluttering, and she looked like a baby. Qiao Yixia turned up the temperature of the air conditioner, took off her woolen coat and draped it over her. All these days passed, and although she always said that she was not qualified to be clean, it had become her instinct to be cute and clean, so that she would not use the hotel quilt or her mud-stained coat to keep warm even if she was freezing.

Qiao Yixia reached out and touched Lu Xifei's head, fortunately, there was no fever.

There has never been such a thing in the world that has been deeply moved, Qiao Yixia knows it well. Even though they have both experienced the loss of a loved one, they can't fully understand how each other feels. Because the experiences are similar, but the feelings are all unique.

Qiao Yixia didn't close her eyes that night, she was lying on the bed, and she didn't even dare to hug her, for fear that her arms would wake her up, who had finally fallen asleep. She just watched her quietly, felt her breathing, and quietly accompanied her in the vast time and space.

"Daddy." Qiao Yixia walked to the bathroom, looked at the caller ID on the screen, and pressed the connect button, she knew that she would be another storm waiting for her, "I know." ”

"You know? You know you leave without even saying hello? Yi Xia, you are not a child anymore, why don't you have a sense of responsibility at all! ”

"Dad, I'm sorry. But I really have important things to deal with, and I really can't go back. ”

"Qiao Yixia, do you know what day it is? Who am I here for today? Your current attitude makes me wonder if I should hand over Qiao's to you, how can such a manager with no sense of responsibility convince the public! ”

Qiao Yixia pursed her lips: "I'm really sorry, Dad." Then he didn't say another word and hung up the phone. Even if her father was angry with her, and even changed his mind and kicked her out of Qiao's, she couldn't leave Lu Xifei at this time.

Pushing open the door of the bathroom and seeing Lu Xihua standing at the door, thin and pale, Qiao Yixia suddenly felt at a loss, as if his words and actions were superfluous at this moment, and only by looking at each other could he relieve the pain of lovesickness.

"Let's go back. Give me a moment to say goodbye to him. ”

I don't know how long it will take, but she thinks that she will definitely give her back a confident Luci Fei.

She looked out the floor-to-ceiling window at the world, full of traffic and crowds. She was finally the only one left in this room, and she could be quietly lonely and silent. In fact, she didn't fall asleep last night, she felt how careful Qiao Yixia was by her side, and even the sound of breathing could be suppressed. She felt that such a time was really beautiful, she could selfishly feel the care of her lover for her, and at the same time ruthlessly say goodbye to her brother.

"Brother, can I talk to you, how are you today, I always want to cry and scream recently, I often think of your words, you said that the dream is in a very high place, you have to work hard to climb together, the sky is so big, this road is so slippery, I gritted my teeth and rushed forward, don't let the wind blow us away, I am not afraid to ...... hand in hand"

It was the first year she went to the United States, she always couldn't adapt to the living environment in the United States, blonde and blue-eyed Caucasia, avant-garde and trendy teaching methods, sometimes she had insomnia at night, she would text him, and he always called her back at the first moment and sang to her.

"Sister, can I talk to you, how are you today...... Sister, I think you've already slept, don't always be braver than me, if you meet your him, don't let go of me for me......"

Every sleepless night, his voice is like a shadow

- Maybe it's your misfortune to have a sister like me in this life. But the fact that you are my brother is enough to make me happy for the rest of my life.

F City.

"Unfilial daughter!" The slap fell, and Qiao Yixia's white and tender skin was instantly engraved with a crimson slap print, "I sue you, if you dare to take half a step out of the company, you won't come back!" I, Qiao Yihai, don't have a daughter like you, for the sake of my children's private feelings, I completely ignore the overall situation! You've disappointed me! ”

He was very angry with her, but it can be seen that she hurried back for a meeting, and his anger disappeared by most of the time, but as soon as the meeting ended, she was going to leave again. He is not a fool and will not not know where she is going and for whom. After what happened last time, Qiao Yihai was not so resistant to Lu Xifei originally, but Qiao Yixia actually ranked his children's private affairs before his career, which made him unbearable. He couldn't accept that his daughter was so unsuccessful.

"Dad, I don't want to lose her, but I can't lose you either."

Hearing her say this, something in Qiao Yihai's heart was touched, and his expression softened a little, but he immediately regained his sternness: "As long as you listen to me, stay obediently, and do a good job of the project in the past few days, Dad will not be angry with you." ”

But she knelt in front of him all her life, from childhood to adulthood, this daughter who never accepted weakness and did not admit defeat knelt in front of her, she looked into her eyes and said again: "Dad, I don't want to lose her, and I can't lose you." ”

Qiao Yihai frowned, his heart suddenly panicked, he raised his voice and looked at her in disbelief: "What are you doing here?" After all, you just have to go to her, don't you? No matter what I say, it's useless, is it? ”

"Yes."

Qiao Yihai shook his head, he couldn't lose his temper, he wanted to laugh, he felt that he was ridiculous, but he couldn't laugh, he glanced at Qiao Yixia and felt that he had no strength in his body, so he finally had to wave his hand: "You can go if you want to." I don't care, I can't care about it. ”

Qiao Yixia didn't go back to City A immediately, but went to the supermarket to buy some fresh vegetables and went back to her apartment with Lu Xifei. Lu Xifei hasn't eaten well in the past few days, her face is sallow, she wants to make something warm and full, and bring it to her to eat. It's just that she only remembered that Luxi hadn't eaten for a few days, but she completely forgot that she hadn't eaten properly for several days. When you fall in love with someone, you have her in your eyes and heart, where will you be yourself.

Walking in the corridor of the hotel, carrying a lunch box in her hand, Qiao Yixia answered Bai Ying's call, but coincidentally, she originally planned to call Lu Xifei after dinner. However, what Bai Ying said next was far beyond Qiao Yixia's expectations.

"Sister Yixia, Shang Lu has been kidnapped."

"What did you say?" The boy who went up the mountain with the police yesterday to rescue Luci was kidnapped? Qiao Yixia couldn't help but clench the mobile phone in her hand.

"I don't know what's going on, I'm on vacation at home, Shang Lu told me that he went home for dinner at noon today, I originally planned to cook for him, but, I waited for a long time and he didn't come back, I thought there was a temporary task in the bureau, he couldn't answer my phone call, but the stone team said that he had already left, I just received an email, there were two pictures in the email, they were sent by the kidnappers, they asked for a million, a million Sister Yixia...... The two of us have never offended anyone, why the hell is this. ”

"Bai Ying, I know you must be worried right now, but try to keep yourself calm, I'll go to you later, okay?" She reassured as much as she could.

Bai Ying snorted, and she could hear that she was restraining her crying.

Qiao Yixia returned to the room, she stepped forward and hugged Lu Xifei, and helped her open the lunch box: "Cangcang, you finish eating these things." I've got something to go out about. ”

"What's the matter?"

"Shang Lu has been kidnapped."

Lucie's hand holding the spoon stiffened: "Oh. ”

Qiao Yixia was surprised by her calmness, but she didn't think much about it, and touched her hair: "I don't know when I'll be back, just rest when you're tired, don't wait for me." ”

Luci nodded: "Hmm." ”

The door slammed shut, and the spoon slipped from Lucie's hand, and she tightened her clothes and closed her eyes.

As soon as she saw Qiao Yixia, Bai Ying couldn't help but throw herself into her arms, her belly was already very big, Qiao Yixia gently hugged her and patted her back.

"Yixia, you're here." Shi Wei's expression was also very bad, it should be said that the human feelings of the entire eight groups were very poor.

"Stone team, although I am no longer a police officer, I really hope that I can contribute my own strength to this case. I also hope that the bureau can give me this opportunity to find Shanglu with you. ”

Shi Wei nodded: "You don't have to worry about this, I have already told the Gao Bureau, and he agrees with you to follow up on this case." After all, you have worked with Shang Lu for a long time, and it would be great if you could assist in the investigation of this case. ”

Shi Wei brought up the email from the kidnapper and showed it to Qiao Yixia. Sure enough, there were only two pictures in the email, one of which was a note, handwritten, and then photographed. What is written on it is in English, translated into Chinese means, you can call the police, I can also tear up the ticket, what I want is only one million yuan, life is important or money is important, you measure it yourself. The payment is S. The other picture is a photo of Shang Lu being tied hand and foot. One can imagine how the eight groups of people felt when they saw this picture.

A member of the technical team pushed open the door with a teacup and walked in: "Basically nothing, the IP address is fake, this situation is very common, and it stands to reason that it is easy to crack." However, this kidnapper obviously did not use such a low means as a proxy server, and with our current technology, it is completely impossible to determine its specific location, oh no, it should be said, we can't even determine whether he is in F City at the moment. ”

"What else? Can't track any other information? ”

The man with glasses rubbed his eyebrows: "This person is a computer master, we originally tried to hack into his computer system and get the significant number jù, but ......" Speaking of this, he paused, and couldn't help but clench his palm, "Not only did we not hack into his computer, but the computers in the technology room were all black in an instant, they are not ordinary computer enthusiasts, they are likely to have the latest and top hacking technology." ”

"It's funny!" Shi Wei slapped the table angrily, "There are so many of us, can't we fight a few of their kidnappers!" In other words, it's completely impossible to find him by email, right? ”

The man with glasses nodded: "So to speak." ”

"." Shi Wei rubbed his hair irritably.

"However, he didn't say how we should give him the money, he should send us another email, as long as we take measures in advance, can we find out their location?" Bai Ying said.

The man with glasses shook his head: "We can imagine this, and the kidnappers will definitely be able to think of it." ”

"So what to do...... It's over, they hacked our system, doesn't that mean they know I've called the police? So what should Shang Lu do? Bai Ying's face instantly turned pale, and the whole person staggered and collapsed to the ground.
