16. Chapter XVI

Ye Ci arrived at the hospital almost stiffly.

The staff of the procuratorate was standing outside the corpse room at this time, and when they saw her coming, they immediately stepped forward and patted her shoulder, expressing extra sympathy.

Ye Ci walked into the room, looked at his father on the white hospital bed, and cried for a while.

She didn't think that her father, who was still talking to her face to face in the morning, would have become such a miserable corpse when she said goodbye.

Squatting on the ground, covering his eyes, he shouted softly: "My dad didn't commit suicide, my dad must not have committed suicide".

The staff was still bowing his head to record the text, but when he heard Ye Ci's words, he immediately asked, "It's not suicide?" Why do you think your dad must not have committed suicide? ”

Ye Ci stood up and took two deep breaths and told him: "When Dad talked to me in the morning, he also asked me to go to see him tomorrow, and he said that he still had some last things to tell me. Under such circumstances, how could my father suddenly choose to die on his own? ”

When the staff heard this, they also felt that it was very reasonable, frowned, glanced at each other with the colleague on the right, nodded and wrote down, and said in a deep voice: "We will record what you said, and if it is true, we will definitely investigate it and give you an explanation." In addition, according to our regulations, the hospital has to make a specific death evaluation of your father, and we also have some necessary procedures to go through, so your father's body will be in the hospital for a day today. We've got in touch with the funeral home, and they'll be sending someone to pull your father over tomorrow afternoon. As for you, I hope that you will not leave your house until 10 o'clock tomorrow morning, because the staff of our hospital will go to your home before 10 o'clock to send a message, and I hope to get your cooperation at that time."

Ye Ci raised his head and asked, "Come to my house?" ”

The man nodded and replied: "Yes, your father's current situation is suicide in fear of crime, although there is no criminal punishment, but the money he moved at that time is not a small amount, if every corrupt person can use his death to offset the stolen money, then the law is meaningless." Therefore, the boss will still collect a part of your family's real estate for repayment as appropriate. I hope you can understand that."

Ye Ci did not object, and in fact, she did not have the right to object.

Lost and returned home.

The house was empty, except for an aging dog waiting for her.

Mechanically fed the dog something to eat. Turning around and going back to the bedroom to lie down, Ye Ci looked at the carved bed that had slept on top of his head for more than 20 years, and suddenly felt bored in his heart.

Thunder in the middle of the night and wake up from a nightmare. She got up and didn't feel sleepy, walked to the living room alone, touched the porcelain bottles, porcelain plates, and porcelain basins in the house one by one, and then walked slowly to the backyard, took the kettle, carefully watered a piece of the grass and trees that had not yet had time to bloom at this time, and whispered some selfish words to them while the moonlight was shining.

It's all inconsequential words, but she said it really, and accidentally said the tears.

Ye Ci never thought that these things, flowers, and even houses that had grown up with her since she was a child would one day leave her.

It's like her father, it's like her mother, and she can only look at it like this, without the power to resist.

But no matter how sentimental it was, the sun rose the next day, and the sunlight slowly seeped in through the window.

Ye Ci got up and half-opened the door, turned around and sat back in the big master chair in the middle of the living room.

The bell on the wall rang "ding dong", accompanied by the faint sound of footsteps in the corridor. Ye Ci gently held his right hand and raised his hand to wipe away the quiet tears on his face.

She turned her back to the door, looked out the window in a trance at the sporadic grass, and said softly: "Come in, do you want to take our things, or the house, or do you want to take them away?" ”

The answer in the imagery did not come as expected.

Ye Ci glanced back with some confusion, and was stunned for a moment, it was not someone else standing there, but Yue Yun.

Yue Yun looked extremely depressed at this moment, the tiny stubble hung on her chin, walked up, wiped the tears on her face, and said, "What are you crying about, there is me."

Ye Ci didn't know why, when he heard his words, he felt an unexpected warmth in his heart, lowered his head and choked up and replied: "Yue Yun, thank you, you go first, the people from the court will come later."

Yue Yun heard her trembling voice, and couldn't help but gently hug her into his arms, and said in a low voice: "Don't think about it, your house will not be confiscated, don't talk about the house, they can't take away a single grass from your house."

Ye Ci didn't understand what he meant, leaned on his arms, and asked him softly, "What are you talking about?"

Yue Yun let go of her, took out a piece of Wen Jiàn from his pocket, put it in her hand, smiled and replied, "I paid all the money that your father owed."

Ye Ci looked at the paper in his hand, and was stunned in place, and after a while, he seemed to come back to his senses, and asked in disbelief: "This, where did you get so much money?" ”

After speaking, he pulled Yue Yun to look left and right, as if he was afraid that he would do something illegal.

Yue Yun patted her on the shoulder and comforted: "Don't think about it, this is the money I borrowed from our old man, our Yue family, well, it's actually a little bit of money."

Ye Ci still didn't believe it, looked down at Wen Jiàn in his hand again, and looked up at Yue Yun in front of him again.

Until the phone in her hand rang, Zhou Ping opened his mouth to confirm the property problem with her, and set a time to go to the funeral home in the afternoon. She slowly sat back in the chair, and after a period of sluggishness, she suddenly cried out with a "wow", perhaps because she was a little anxious, and coughed fiercely twice, and shouted with a hiccups: "Yue, Yue Yunxie, thank you, this, I will definitely pay back this money."

Yue Yun looked at Ye Ci, who was crying like a child in front of him, and for a while, he suddenly laughed.

He leaned forward, hugged Ye Ci tightly in his arms, and replied softly.

Ye Ci cried for a while, and then his feelings gradually stabilized.

Yue Yun looked up and asked her, "Okay, you go to sleep for a while, you haven't slept yesterday, right?" ”

Ye Ci nodded and replied, "Well, you didn't sleep either."

Yue Yun took a glass of water and drank it, smiled and waved his hand: "It's okay, it's just that I rushed back to Beiyi overnight, and I wasted a lot of words with the old man, so I wasn't tired."

Ye Ci knew that he didn't want to worry about himself, so he didn't ask, but just said, "Then let's sleep together for a while."

"Poof".

Yue Yun didn't swallow a mouthful of water, suddenly squirted out, and then wiped his mouth again, and said hesitantly: "Yes, I'm sorry, I was a little choked just now."

Ye Ci couldn't think of the thoughts in his head, shook his head and replied: "It's okay, the innermost room is my brother's house." The covers are all clean and my mom and I change them every week."

Yue Yun nodded in agreement, and walked towards Ye Chen's room with a step.

Ye Ci was probably afraid that he would be cold, so he took a quilt from the master bedroom, put it on the bed and said, "The weather is still a little cold now, I'll add a quilt for you."

Yue Yun sighed, pointed to the photo on the desktop and asked, "This is your brother?" ”

Ye Ci nodded and replied: "Yes, the one next to him is his former best friend, the same Doctor Bai you met that day."

"The one named Bai Ge?"

"Hmm".

Yue Yun lay down and couldn't help but have some questions, "He used to play well with your brother, why did he treat you with an expression of wanting to die?" ”

Ye Ci listened to his words, slightly embarrassed, and replied softly: "He thinks his father's runaway has something to do with my mother."

"Running away from home? Something to do with your mom? Yue Yun seemed to have heard something interesting, and turned his head and asked, "What does his father's running away from home have to do with your mother?" Who's his father? ”

Seeing that Yue Yun was so interested, Ye Ci simply sat down on the edge of the bed, sighed and replied, "His father and my mother used to be from the same office, and they were both old professors of Yun University. Just a few years ago, his mom suddenly said that his dad and my mom were having an affair, and then they started fighting at home. Teacher Bai didn't know why, he suddenly ran away from home, and he hasn't come back yet, but he asked my mother to send some letters to Bai Ge every year."

After listening to Ye Ci's words, Yue Yun shook his head and sighed: "It turns out that it is a lack of love."

After speaking, he lay down on the bed, patted the open space around him, and said, "You tell me a little more about your brother, I see so many awards in your brother's room, there must be a lot of stories, you pick a few fun ones to tell me."

This request should be placed on other men, Ye Ci must have felt that person was a dumbfounder, but the person who made this request at this time was Yue Yun, the man who had just saved his entire family, she didn't think so, she lay down seriously, cleared her throat, and asked, "What do you want to know?" ”

Yue Yun grinned and said, "I see that your brother is quite handsome, so let's tell me if there were any girls chasing him when he was in school."

Ye Ci said nonsense, how could he be Yue Yun's opponent, and finally stumbled to pick out something he might be interested in, and from time to time he was gags and ridiculed, and in the end, he went back and forth, and fell asleep leisurely.

Yue Yun looked at Ye Ci, who was already asleep in front of him, and sighed lightly, finally achieving his goal.

Just now he passed by the bedroom and saw several bottles of drugs to help him sleep on the bedside table, and he felt a pimple in his heart for a while. He didn't want Ye Ci to eat these things at such a young age, so he pondered, specially found a reason for her to speak, and then fell asleep while chatting.

Ye Ci was quite obedient when she fell asleep, as she usually did, her rosy lips were closed one by one, and her eyelashes rose and fell with her breathing, as if she was alive.

Yue Yun couldn't help but lower his head, gently attached his lips to hers and wiped it, and then like a child who had done something wrong, he coughed lightly and turned around suddenly.

After a few seconds, he turned around and kissed again. Then he turned around again, and finally grinned like a shameless little rascal.
