Xia Zhen is still a student and rarely pays attention to things in the shopping mall, but because of family relationships, he often passively hears Zhou Jinshi's name and some of his business methods, and looks at him with admiration.

Xia Zhi was swallowed by his sister's "Brother Zhou", and he couldn't eat anymore.

Zhou Jinshi was also stunned, and then smiled, "Grandpa Xia said that when I was young, he saw me. ”

Old man Xia said, "At that time, he was so tall and ......" said, gestured with his hand, about the position on the table, and said with a smile, "Very beautiful, the two boys are exactly the same, about three or four years old......" Speaking of this, the old man paused, and he also knew that the Zhou family lost a child later, and now he still feels sorry, sighed, and asked, "Hasn't your brother been found yet?" There was no news at all. ”

Zhou Jinshi's expression changed slightly, and he was a little lost, "No." ”

Xia Zhi's face turned pale, and the fingers holding the chopsticks couldn't help but tremble.

Xia Zhen turned her head sideways, "Sister, what's wrong with you?" ”

Xia Zhi looked at her, "It's okay." ”

"Your face is white, why are your hands shaking?"

In addition to his pale face, Xia Zhi's expression did not change, he looked calm, he didn't seem to have any taste, and gently put the chopsticks on the table, "I had a cold last night, and I haven't recovered yet." She did speak in a slightly nasal voice, sounding buzzy.

The old man raised his eyes to look at her and said lightly, "Don't rush over when you're sick, why didn't you say it earlier?" ”

Xia Zhi covered his nose and said, "I'm fine." ”

Xia Zhen touched Xia Zhi's forehead, "...... I didn't have a fever, but I was sweating when it was so cold. ”

Xia Zhi stroked Xia Zhen's hand, "I've taken the medicine." ”

After eating and sitting for a while, the old man asked Xia Zhen to send Zhou Jinshi out, at that time Xia Zhi was upstairs in his room, and Xia Zhen had been chatting with the old man and Zhou Jinshi in the living room.

Few of the descendants of the Xia family now go back to live in the old mansion, but everyone has their own room.

Standing behind the window, lifting the curtains, looking at the backs of Xia Zhen and Zhou Jinshi walking outside the courtyard together, the two seemed to be talking and laughing, very harmonious, Xia Zhi's fingers holding the cup were white, he raised his head, took a sip of hot water, and his eyes were full of cold light.

There was a knock on the door, and the servant said outside, "Fifth Miss, my lord, please go to the study." ”

"Got it." Retracting her gaze, she placed the cup on the tea rock.

Watching the eldest granddaughter push the door and walk in, Old Man Xia didn't have a good face, he always had a big opinion about this granddaughter, she was not as well-behaved and obedient as the other two, she was more rebellious since she was a child, and her own conditions were the best.

Two years ago, he didn't want her to marry the Wen family, with their Xia family's family background, the Wen family was not worthy of it at all, but he insisted on marrying, and in the end, he cut it first, and there was no way to be angry again, fortunately, it was just a granddaughter, and if she got married, she should splash out a basin of water, and her grandson's marriage was not good.

If you want to get married, you should marry well, a beautiful wedding, almost all the characters in City A were invited, and it turned out to be a laughing stock all over the city, which made him very embarrassed, and he was angry and went to the hospital at that time, and almost didn't recover.

He scolded her father two years ago, I don't know how many times he scolded, and now he was angry, and now when he sees her, he can't scold anything, and the doctor told him not to be angry, otherwise he will suffer.

After all, she is a granddaughter, and she is still scolding at the beginning, and she can't help but worry about her safety after scolding, as long as she comes back alive.

The old man sighed deeply.

"Grandpa." Xia Solstice approached and called softly.

The old man glanced up at her, "I heard that you've been checking on your father's affairs recently?" ”

Xia Zhi nodded, "Yes." ”

"Any idea?"

"Nope."

She wanted to speak and stopped, but the old man saw it and threw out a word, "Say." ”

Xia Zhi said, "Grandpa should also know who Dad's business is mainly from, why are you ......" She pursed her lips and stopped talking, the meaning was already very clear.

The old man had a keen eye, sighed, and sat down in the chair, "Yes, you also know that he is the only one who can help your father now." ”

Xia Zhi seemed to understand a little, "But grandpa, since he has already made a move against the Xia family and my father, how can he easily stop it?" ”

The old man lowered his eyes, squinted at the pot of Junzi Orchid on the table, was silent for a while, and said, "If you tear your face, you can save your father and the Xia family, do I still need to deliberately please him, what we can do at present, I think you have understood it very well in the past few days!" ”

Xia Zhi was stunned for a moment, silent, and said after a while, "Xiao Zhen, she ......" She saw that her grandfather seemed to be interested in matching Xia Zhen and Zhou Jinshi, what a terrible thing, with Zhou Jinshi's style, Xia Zhen can only be the next lover.

Of course, the old man didn't know what the biggest grievance was, and he said confidently, "If the Xia family and the Zhou family can marry, all problems will be solved." ”

Xia Zhi felt that his brain hurt and he couldn't speak, grandpa was whimsical, he just hoped that Zhou Jinshi already had a fiancée or girlfriend.

This man avoided her, but was willing to come to see her grandfather, and she did not know what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd.

Seeing that he pretended not to know her just now, and his attitude in front of the old man was quite modest, then her father's affairs, maybe it would be more appropriate for her grandfather to deal with it, and she would only ignite the fire if she provoked him herself...... Thinking of this, Xia Zhi decided to wait and see for the time being, giving up the urge to go to him alone and desperately, anyway, now she can't see her alone.

On the office floor, Zhou Jinshi stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, admiring the glitz of the city at night, holding a goblet in his hand and gently shaking the red liquid in the crystal cup.

An angular face was reflected in the glass window parallel to him, and he smiled at him, and he smiled at him, and he raised his glass to him, and he raised his glass, and the glasses touched the glass, making a crisp sound, and then each took a sip of wine.

I don't know how many years ago, two little boys who looked exactly the same quietly ran out of the banquet hall, running all over the street, curious about everything they saw, they were like birds that had just escaped from the iron cage, full of love for freedom.

The same face, but the expression is not the same, one is a quirky smile, the other is curious and slightly surprised by things that are not usually touched, and the little young man put on a calm appearance.

After walking many places, they finally got tired and hungry, and thought about going home, but they got lost, and came and went with strangers, and every street looked very similar.

The lively little boy said to the boy with a slight demeanor, "The teacher said that if you can't find your way home, you will go to the police uncle for help." ”

The gentle boy nodded, and was about to take the lively child's hand and leave, but the lively child said, "You wait for me here, and I will bring it when I find the policeman." ”

The gentle boy didn't think much about it, nodded and continued to sit on the stone steps beside the road, watching the little figure gradually disappear in front of him......

Later, the child who was looking for the police uncle did not appear, but a stranger's face appeared, and he stretched out his hand to the child, "Little friend, where are your parents?" Want to go home? Uncle sent you home......"

Zhou Jinwen narrowed his eyes, no longer looking at the faces reflected in the glass, and his brain ached.

"Bang bang." The sudden knock on the door pulled him back from his memory, and he opened his eyes without looking back.

The door was pushed open, and in walked in a tall young woman, who was playing with a bunch of keys in her hand, looking at his back, "shouted," Big brother. ”

Zhou Jinshi lowered his head and took a sip of wine, turned around, and looked at the woman, "Jin Yao, why are you here?" ”

"Brother, it's so late, why are you still alone in the office?" Zhou Jinyao took two steps forward, saw the red wine in his hand, and the tip of the hand holding the cup was white, he was slightly surprised, and stopped, "Big brother." ”

"Huh?" Zhou Jinshi glanced up at her, "What's wrong?" ”

Zhou Jinshi smiled and shook his head, "It's nothing, seeing that you're not in a very good mood, aren't you......" She lowered her eyes and lowered her voice, "Do you think of Brother Jinnian?" ”

Zhou Jinshi's brows furrowed and he didn't answer, but his expression had already given her an answer.

"Big brother, don't feel too guilty, after all, of course, you are still young, and you didn't mean to ......"

"Didn't mean to?" The corners of Zhou Jinshi's mouth curled up with a touch of mockery, "I want to say, what if of course I did it on purpose?" ”

Zhou Jinyao looked at him in shock.

"I took him out, I did it on purpose, and I deliberately left him there, and then, after finding the police, I went home by myself......" His eyes fell on the red wine in the glass, looking at the red, gently shaking, and his voice was cold.

Zhou Jinyao's eyes were shocked, the key in her hand fell to the floor, she hurriedly picked it up, and she didn't dare to look at Zhou Jinshi's eyes.

Zhou Jinshi's face became more and more heavy, looking at the wine glass, as if there was a time entrance on it, and he stared motionless.

With a "bang", the cup was crushed and tightly wrapped in the palm of the hand, and the mixed red liquid meandered out of the fingers.

"Big brother!" Zhou Jinyao was startled, rushed forward, held his hand with both hands, and wanted to separate his fingers, but he couldn't break them at all, seeing more and more blood, there were still a few shiny pieces of glass embedded in his fingers, she shouted loudly, "Don't be like this, big brother, even if you do it wrong, you were still a four or five-year-old child at that time, and you didn't know the seriousness of the result......"

Seeing that he didn't let go, Zhou Jinyao cried bitterly, "It's all that woman's fault, if it weren't for her, your brothers would have been reunited four years ago......"

Zhou Jinshi's eyes dimmed, and the fragments wrapped in the palm of his hand pierced in a few more points, and the blood flowed even more.

Zhou Jinyao screamed, "Big brother! ”

Zhou Jinshi stroked Zhou Jinyao's hands, slowly unfolded his palms, and the shocking slag bloomed in his palms, shining in the light......

Zhou Jinyao glanced at it, couldn't bear to look at it anymore, trembled all over, and went to find the medicine box in a panic.

Zhou Jinshi only looked at it lightly, without the slightest painful expression, the hand seemed not to be his own, looking at the things in the palm of his hand with appreciation.
