In order not to worry Zhou's mother, in fact, I obviously had no appetite, so I had to pick up the bowl hard, and forcibly ate a few bites, and while eating, I heard a knock on the door outside.

A trace of uneasiness flashed in Zhou's mother's eyes, "Who! “

Hearing Zhou's mother's question, Kevin's inquiring voice sounded outside, "Zhou's mother, has Xiaomeng woken up?" ”

Zhou's mother turned her head, glanced at me uneasily, and saw me nodding before she spoke, "I'm already awake." ”

"Click......" The sound of the door being opened sounded, and I saw Kevin's figure appear in sight, and took the initiative to speak, "Xiao Lao is looking for me?" ”

"Hmm." Kevin nodded, "Let's go." ”

"Okay," I sat up with the help of Zhou's mother, then took my clothes, draped them on my body, and snorted at the inside, "Help me take care of the water color." ”

"You can go with confidence."

I nodded, and followed behind Kevin, the night was a little cold now, and seeing that the maid outside was still busy so late, I couldn't help but speak, "Is it Mei Shan's future?" ”

"It's Xiao Shao's happy event."

"Which Xiao Shao? Xiao Cheng and Bai Lu? "I'm a little careless, and now that some things are a foregone conclusion, there may really be no way to change them.

"It's Xiao Ze." Kevin's words were like a sharp knife piercing my chest, and my body couldn't help but shake, "What ......"

"It's Xiao Ze's happy event." Kevin gave me a sympathetic look and said no more.

I know that they will let me know if they can let me know, but when I suddenly heard about Xiao Ze's marriage, I was shocked or shocked.

Xiao Chuan's study is actually not far away, but when I know the news, I seem to have been gone for half a century.

"Old Xiao, the people brought it."

"Hmm." As soon as Kevin's words fell, Xiao Chuan's voice came from the room, and it seemed that he had been waiting for me for a long time.

Kevin pushed the door open and glanced back at me, "Let's go in." ”

I nodded and walked in alone.

The light in the room was a little dim, Xiao Chuan stood in front of the window, heard my footsteps, and said faintly, "You are here." ”

"Yes, didn't Elder Xiao want to see me?"

I replied to him in a deep voice, "You can tell me if you have something." ”

"I know Chen Huan wasn't killed by you." Xiao Chuan turned to look at me, "Do you want to make another deal......

"What if I don't want to, is there a choice?" I looked at Xiao Chuan, didn't he manipulate these things, what did he have to discuss with me.

"Yes, it's a big deal," his gaze scrutinized, "but I know you can't ...... it."

"And what do you want to trade with me?" I looked at Xiao Chuan, he was really old, and his eyes were a little cloudy.

"As long as you do what I say, I will prove your innocence in Chen Huan's case, and I will spare her life."

"What do you want me to do?"

"Admit that you received benefits privately, so you signed that business, causing such a big loss, Xiao Ze didn't know about it."

Xiao Chuan looked at me, "Xiao Ze can't go to jail, and he can't lose everything he has now. ”

"Then it seems that this business is the handiwork of your old man, so did you consider Xiao Ze when you did it?"

"You ......" Xiao Chuan glared at me, "You can not agree!" ”

"Are you afraid that I will retract my confession in court, let the case become complicated, affect myself, affect the company, and finally Xiao Ze!" I sighed, "But maybe you also value Xiao Ze, after all, he is your heir." ”

"That's one reason, the other is that he has more important things to do now."

But Xiao Chuan knows me too well, Xiao Ze is my weakness, as long as it will affect him, I am willing to help him solve it, even if it is at the cost of my own life.

It's just that since I can't convince myself to push this pot off and not carry it, then I don't want to carry it so cheaply.

"Something like this," I raised my eyes to look at Xiao Chuan, "It's too cheap to talk about water color and overturning the case, I'll add more." ”

"What do you want?" Xiao Chuan looked at me suspiciously, he obviously didn't expect me to bargain, so he was still surprised, I looked at him and sneered and said, "I want Xiao Ze to marry me!" ”

In fact, I'm just gambling, even if he doesn't agree, I can really let Xiao Ze lose everything and go to jail, no, no, no, I have to explain to him clearly, I don't want him to misunderstand me like this.

An imperceptible smile appeared at the corner of Xiao Chuan's mouth, "Are you sure?" As long as you are willing to take the blame for him? This crime is not a small crime! ”

I looked at Xiao Chuan's face that was almost unable to suppress a smile, and said with some disgust, "Does Xiao Lao still want me to be unwilling?" ”

"Okay, since you can think so clearly, let's sign it." Xiao Chuan brought me some documents, some of which were used as evidence in court for the police station.

I held it in my hand with some sarcasm, "How can I be sure that Xiao Ze can marry me!" ”

"I've promised you." Xiao Chuan smiled, "We have worked together for so long, and I haven't broken my word to you." ”

"There is no basis for what I said, besides, when I came here just now, I heard Kevin say that he was not going to do a happy event for Xiao Ze, Xiao Lao is like this, it's not good!"

Xiao Chuan's face suddenly looked ugly, and he said a little perfunctorily, "Engagement doesn't necessarily mean marriage, he is also engaged to Tang Xuefei!" ”

"So, Xiao Lao has a candidate for a prospective daughter-in-law?" I looked at Xiao Chuan, "Can I know who it is?" ”

Xiao Chuan looked at me as if he was smiling, knowing that he couldn't hide it from me, so he simply said openly and honestly, "It's the daughter of an overseas banker." ”

"It seems that Xiao Lao has found a new partner again."

In the face of my cynicism, Xiao Chuan didn't get angry for the first time, sighed and spoke, "Li Meng, I really don't like you, but your heart for Xiao Ze, I also know that no one can compare, but if you want to hate, sometimes you can only blame fate for being unfair." ”

"It's rare for Xiao Lao to have such an emotional time." I looked at Xiao Chuan's appearance, although he was unforgiving, but he was a little shaken in my heart, and I felt that he was just a selfish old man who guarded his family, and he was not so annoying.

But my feelings for him probably had to stop until I didn't hate him so much.

"I'm old, and now the Xiao family is in turmoil, and the Bai family has been eaten to death, so I have to ask for some help and make some trade-offs, Xiao Cheng's character is too impatient, but I only have these two grandsons, the Xiao family, can't be defeated in my hands."

Xiao Chuan's eyes flashed with some emotions that I couldn't understand for a while, I looked at him, and suddenly felt a little sad in my heart, I don't feel sorry for Xiao Chuan, although I think he has his position, but I am not so virgin, I have my own position, it doesn't mean that everything I do is right, he is wrong too much, and he has hurt too many innocent people, such a selfish person, I can't forgive him, but he has a sentence that poked in my heart, Xiao family, this is also Xiao Ze's home, I love Xiao Ze, I should protect him and help him survive together, Guarding his home.

Thinking of this, I glanced at the contract, and no longer hesitated to pick up the pen, and was just about to put down the pen to sign, when I heard Xiao Chuan suddenly stop me, "Wait a minute." ”

I looked up at Xiao Chuan with some confusion, he picked up the pen, wrote a paragraph on a piece of paper, and then stamped his own handprint and put it in the envelope, "I will open it when you are released from prison in the future, as my thank you to you." ”

I was stunned by Xiao Chuan's sudden move, and I couldn't come back to my senses when I heard him call me, so I reacted, "This is for me?" ”

"For you." Xiao Chuan looked at me, "I'll take it out when I'm released from prison." ”

I nodded, and then signed my name on the paper, "I'll leave everything to Elder Xiao." ”

"You're a nice girl, but I'm sorry." When Xiao Chuan said this, he had an indescribable feeling, did he regret it, I can't say it, but I also felt inexplicably sad in my heart.

"Xiao Lao has nothing else to do, so I'll leave first."

As I spoke, I turned around and was just about to go out when I heard a knock on the study door, I thought it was Kevin coming in to pick me up, but I heard another voice, "Why are you here......"
