In the secluded and cold detention center, Song Meijiao sat in front of Chu Qiao with an indifferent face, so calm that she seemed to ignore the current environment at all.

"Auntie ......"

"Don't dare to be." Yi Nanzheng's marriage agreement has been sent by a lawyer, but she has not signed it for a long time, what she knows is that this is just a formality, even if she doesn't sign it, the marriage is divorced.

Coming to this point, it would be false to say that she was not uncomfortable, but she had no choice, her eldest brother died, and the Song family was left with her and Wanwan, and Wanwan's means were far above her, so no matter how many heinous things Wanwan had done before, she had to ensure that she was safe and sound, only in this way would the Song family not perish.

Although Song Meijiao was very good to Chu Qiao before, but what she did afterwards had really made Chu Qiao very disappointed in her, if she wanted to accompany Yi Shaojin, in fact, she didn't plan to come to see Song Meijiao, and it would be even more embarrassing to meet in this case.

But Yi Shaojin is different, after all, she is a child raised by Song Wan since she was a child, even if she has done a lot of things that make Yi Shaojin sad before, but when she really goes in, Yi Shaojin will not ignore it, in fact, Yi Shaojin's heart is far softer than her mouth.

It's just that at this moment, she sat still and didn't speak.

Yi Shaojin opened his mouth, but he never thought about what he wanted to call her, and finally said after hesitating for a long time: "I brought you a few clothes, you should pay attention to keeping warm when it is cold." ”

Yes, it's cold, and it's about to be the New Year.

Song Meijiao turned her face away and didn't speak, and didn't pay attention to her.

The atmosphere has been extremely embarrassing since the three of them appeared in this reception room, and in the end, Chu Qiao really lost his patience, so he got up first and said, "Then let's go back first." ”

Yi Shaojin nodded, "Then we'll go back first." ”

Just as the two of them walked to the door, Song Meijiao behind them suddenly called them, "What you promised me, I hope you can do it as soon as possible." ”

Yi Shaojin's face suddenly froze, "Got it." ”

"Also, your mother may not have many days left." Song Meijiao sighed, and finally told her about it.

Although she used to really hate Li Keli for dropping Yi Chenxue and Yi Shaojin, which indirectly led to Yi Chenxue's tragedy, Li Keli has always regarded Yi Chenxue as her own, and she can also see it, otherwise, at that time, she could have let Yi Chenxue die in prison and leave her alone, instead of Baba deliberately going to Yi's house to tell the truth about this matter, after all, she finally tried her best to change to Yi's biological daughter who was in the Yi family, and she herself would face a very miserable end.

But even though she knew that the consequences would be so serious, she still did it without hesitation, which can only prove that in Li Keli's heart, Yi Chenxue is far more important than Yi Shaojin.

"Got it." Yi Shaojin was slightly stunned, obviously a little stunned, pinched his palm, and forcibly held back the sour feeling.

Li Keli doesn't have many days, what does it matter to her? Didn't she deliberately commit suicide by slitting her wrists last time? This time it's definitely their trick again!

She has nothing to do with her!

When I walked out of the gate of the detention center and looked at the snow everywhere, I only felt that it was extremely dazzling, and my eyes were sore and hot.

"Less ......"

On the way back to the manor, Yi Shaojin had been very silent, and Chu Qiao finally couldn't help but say: "It's boring, it's okay to go back to the manor so early, why don't we walk around." ”

"Huh?" Yi Shaojin suddenly came back to his senses, "Oh, what a ......"

Chu Qiao looked at her worriedly, wanting to be comforted, but he didn't know how to comfort her.

No matter how much she hated it, after all, she was her own mother, and she would definitely be very sad when she heard the news that she was dying, just like when she agreed to Chu Xiong's request before he died, which gave Zhao Wenya the opportunity to deal with her later.

Chu Qiao reported the name of the place to the driver, but Yi Shaojin didn't react, obviously didn't listen to it at all.

The expensive black sedan sped all the way, and finally slowly stopped at the entrance of a remote alley, the mess here made Chu Qiao almost can't believe that there is such a bad place in Kyoto, she thought that the urban village should not exist after it was developed.

It was noon, and many people who had come home from work passed by wrapped in large scarves and wearing thick down jackets, and almost all of them looked curiously at the two women who got out of this car, which they knew was very valuable at a glance.

There had never been such a beautiful and elegant woman in this place, how could the two of them come to this place?

"Little Joe? How did you get here? Doesn't that mean walking around? Yi Shaojin's face changed as soon as he got out of the car, and he stood still.

"It's also going around, come on." Chu Qiao put his arm around her, "It's cold, you hold me a little, the ground is full of snow." ”

Yi Shaojin wanted to say no, but Chu Qiao had already pulled her to the alley, so she could only helplessly help her.

"Every day when you don't smile is a disappointment to life, Shaojin, you have been too sad lately."

Yi Shaojin Qiang laughed twice, laughing and laughing, and suddenly the corners of his lips froze.

Not far away, the tired woman in a cheap dark green down jacket carrying a bag of vegetables is not Li Keli, who is it?

After many days, Chu Qiao really didn't expect that she would be in such a situation when she saw Li Keli again, even if she was kicked out of Ying's house later, she never thought that she would become what she is now.

Yi Shaojin had a cold face and turned around to leave.

"Shaojin, it's all here."

"Shaojin!" Li Keli shouted happily, the plastic bag in her hand fell to the ground on the spot, at this time she didn't care so much, she walked as fast as she could, but she looked obviously a little struggling, her pale face was slightly blue, and she looked malnourished.

Yi Shaojin frowned slightly, stood motionless and watched her walk towards her, and finally helped Chu Qiao into the courtyard on the side when she was about to approach.

Since then, except for the last time Li Keli committed suicide by cutting her wrists, she has never been in touch, and this small courtyard is still as dilapidated as ever.

Chu Qiao glanced at the surrounding environment indifferently, I don't know if there is no heating in the house or there is no heating fee, it is very cold, and my hands and feet will be cold after sitting for a while, a low square table and two small wooden stools are all the furniture in this living room and dining room, and a briquette stove that is not burning very vigorously is burning not far away, which is the only source of heat in this room.

Yi Shaojin didn't expect Li Keli to be like this, she obviously gave her 200,000 yuan last time, although it is not much, but it is enough in the homes of ordinary people.

She wanted to ask, but stubbornly didn't say it.

In fact, she knew what kind of illness she had and whether she could be cured.

After a long while, Li Keli finally entered the door with the bag of vegetables that had just fallen on the snow, and she stood a little cramped away from the two of them, neither daring to speak, nor to greet them with tea and water.

In Chu Qiao's memory, Li Keli has always been a slightly noisy woman, with a bad temper and no brains, but when I look at it today, it seems that she has completely changed as a person.

She took out the checkbook from her bag, wrote a check for 500,000 yuan and handed it to Yi Shaojin.

"You borrowed it."

Yi Shaojin hesitated.

Chu Qiao simply put the check on the table.

"Take this money to see a doctor, it's not enough for me to send it when the time comes, but don't die, otherwise no one will give you a funeral."

Yi Shaojin wrapped his coat around his body, "It's cold, Xiao Qiao, let's go back." ”

"yes, okay."

Before going out, Yi Shaojin suddenly said: "If you are not in good health, eat better, and no one cares about you if you freeze to death and starve." ”

Li Keli glanced at her hands that were red from cold, and lowered her eyes with a little guilt.

The last time she came here, she was just standing in the courtyard, and she didn't want to go into the house to do it, so she gave the money and left, but this time she finally entered the house, but she was still frozen.

The snow grew heavier and fell, and soon the two of them were far away......

"Shaojin, don't take some things too seriously, otherwise it's just yourself who will be uncomfortable."

After Chu Qiao asked Steward Lu to put down the refreshments, he sent him out before saying to Yi Shaojin.

"I didn't feel at ease, I was just thinking, is she really sick? Could it be some kind of conspiracy? In fact, she wondered, was she really sick and very sick? Is there still time to heal?

Chu Qiao shook his head helplessly, picked up the mobile phone on the table and handed it to Yi Shaojin, "Go into my mailbox and take a look yourself." ”

Yi Shaojin took it suspiciously, and the moment he clicked on the mailbox, his face suddenly turned pale.

Stomach cancer is in an advanced stage!

How could it be, how could it be stomach cancer?

"Don't worry, I've put Yi An in touch with an expert in this area."

"No need." Yi Shaojin pretended to be indifferent and said: "Life and death are in the sky, wealth is in the sky, this is her life, she has done so many immoral things, this is retribution." ”

"You're too stubborn."

"What if it's you? I believe your choice is the same as mine. ”

Chu Qiao was stunned for a moment.

suddenly remembered what Chu Yun told her about Jiang Hanwu not living long.

Although she asked Yi'an to investigate, she really didn't pay much attention.

In fact, it's not that the family is indifferent, but I'm afraid that I will end up disappointed if I care too much.

"We're the same." This is the conclusion that Yi Shaojin has reached.

She, like Chu Qiao, is also kind and not kind.

"No matter what, don't let yourself regret it, or this painful feeling will torment you for the rest of your life."

Yi Shaojin looked up at the ceiling, and he didn't come back to his senses for a long time.

"Ma'am, lunch is ready."

Steward Lu stood respectfully at the door and said in a low voice.

"Got it."

"You can call Miss Lu, she also went out in the morning, I don't know if she will come back for dinner."

"Hmm."

Chu Qiao picked up the mobile phone and called up Lu Xuanxuan's number, but the other end of the phone kept prompting that no one answered.

"Did she talk about where she was going in the morning?"

"No, not long after you and Miss Shaojin went out, Miss Lu went out, didn't say where to go, and refused to let the bodyguards drive her."

"That's weird." Chu Qiao was about to put away her mobile phone, but Lu Xuanxuan's phone came back, and she hurriedly picked it up, "Where did you go, it's time for lunch." ”

"If you want to see her, come to room 6066 of the Kyoto Hotel alone, don't call the police, if you call the police, I guarantee that this woman will fall from the twelfth floor at the same time that the police push the door in!"

On the other end of the phone, there was a strange voice change, and I could vaguely hear that it was a man.

Chu Qiao hung up the phone with a cold face.

"What's wrong, Little Joe?" Seeing that her face suddenly changed, Yi Shaojin hurriedly said with concern.

"Huh? It's nothing. She raised her eyes and looked at Steward Lu, "What about sir?" Is it still upstairs? ”

"In the morning, I called from London, saying that the old gentleman would arrive in Kyoto this morning, and the gentleman would pick him up at this time."

"Okay, got it, go get my coat."

"You're going out now?"

"Well, there's a little thing to deal with, come back soon, you eat first, don't wait for me."

Chu Qiao had already put on his coat as he spoke, and took the car keys from Steward Lu.

"Are you sure you won't let the driver drop you off? It's better not to bring a bodyguard, it's not easy to drive on the snowy road outside. Steward Lu said with a little worry.

"Don't worry, old man." Chu Qiao smiled and winked at him.

"Going out?" In the underground parking garage, Xi Yijun seemed to be preparing to go out.

"Well, just right, I have something to discuss with you."

"Okay."

Chu Qiao whispered something in his ear......

The Hummer galloped all the way, domineering at the door of the Kyoto Hotel, directly throwing the car keys to the doorman and walking towards the door eagerly.

This is obviously a kidnapping, but she really can't figure out who would kidnap Lu Xuanxuan, she just came back from abroad, and she doesn't have any acquaintances in Kyoto, let alone offend anyone, so it stands to reason that she shouldn't.

Could it be that this is not for Xuan Xuan at all?

In room 6066, the door was empty, and Chu Qiao simply pushed it in after pressing the doorbell and no one answered.

"Xuan Xuan? Xuan Xuan? Are you in there? ”

She shouted in the room several times in succession, but no one answered, subconsciously frowned, took out her mobile phone and called Lu Xuanxuan's mobile phone again, but still no one answered.

Such a kidnapping is too disrespectful, shabu shabu!

Just as she was about to turn around, Xi Yijun suddenly rushed in nervously.

"Yijun?" Didn't you say that he should take someone downstairs to guard it? How do you say that it came up......

Xi Yijun held her shoulders and looked her back and forth, and suddenly his face changed suddenly.

"Let's go, get out of here."

"Oh, oh......" Seeing his anxious appearance, Chu Qiao didn't even dare to ask him how he came up first without keeping the agreement.

The two were about to turn around and leave, when suddenly a large number of reporters rushed in from nowhere.

Now, Chu Qiao fully understood.

Dare is waiting for her here!

"Sorry, you can't go in, it's a private room, not a public place!" A petite young girl wearing a work uniform and skirt suddenly appeared at the door, and kept pushing out the reporters who were constantly shooting with cameras in hand, obviously looking so weak, but treating these reporters mercilessly, like a desperate thirteen lang.

Those reporters rushed up to take photos and then dispersed, and at a glance, they knew that they were specially arranged, and it was even possible that many of them were not serious reporters at all, after all, the photos of Chu Qiao and Xi Yijun had been on the confidential list of major media companies, and they were not allowed to publish any news about them unless they were instructed.

"I'm sorry for the two VIPs, but our hotel didn't handle it well, please forgive me." The little girl couldn't help but apologize after the two.

If the manager finds out that something like this is happening on her floor, she must be strangled!

Xi Yijun glanced at her coldly.

She subconsciously stopped her mouth.

This man is so scary!

"Shall we go back to the manor first?" When he turned to speak to Chu Qiao, he had a gentle face that could drown people.

"Well, let's go back first."

When the two returned to Brittany Manor, they found that Lu Xuanxuan had already gone back, and they were sitting on the sofa with palpitations at this time, while Steward Lu and Yi Shaojin discussed whether to call the police.

"Xuan Xuan, what's going on? Where did you just go? Chu Qiao hurriedly stepped forward to check.

"I don't know." Lu Xuanxuan shook her head, "I was going to go around alone, but I was tied up not long after I left the gate of the manor, and when I woke up again, I found that I was already in the manor." ”

"Just now, a patrol bodyguard found Miss Lu lying on the snow at the door, so I asked someone to carry her in first."

"Is there anything useful in the surveillance at the gate?"

"Look!" Yi Shaojin handed the tablet to the two of them in surprise, "What are you doing, it's actually on the hot search headlines!" ”

[Uncle and sister-in-law are in a hearty and big hotel, and they deliberately enter and ...... in order to avoid suspicion]

Illustrated and illustrated, Chu Qiao and Xi Yijun in the photo are both positive, and there is no mosaic at all.

The article even boldly elaborated on Chu Qiao and Xi Yijun's previous past, such as Xi Yijun fell into the love incense and entered Chu Qiao's room through the window sill in the middle of the night, such as Xi Yijun and Chu Qiao both disappeared for more than an hour at the birthday banquet, and the two kissed in the car......

"What is this!"

Xi Yijun took the tablet with a cold face and glanced at it, threw it directly into Yi Shaojin's arms, and turned to leave.

"What the hell is going on, say it quickly, you're going to kill me in a hurry."

"It's nothing to be designed."

Chu Qiao was about to take out his mobile phone to call Wen Yi'an, and his call came in.

"Mr. Chu, I have deleted all the bad information on the Internet, and I will send someone to keep an eye on the major online platforms in the past few days, so be careful yourself." Sometimes the Internet is really a very troublesome thing, such as right now, when he is on a par with Dick, one will stop the other and continue to find a way.

"Hmm." You don't even need to ask, you can guess that it was Dick's ghost.

It's just that I don't know why the good ones attacked her again.

"According to the investigation, Dick has just set up a new newspaper in the name of someone else, and I think they must have been working overtime to print today's evening newspaper by this time."

"Well, you can call Yijun later and ask him to calm down, the more anxious we are, the more proud they will be." If he hadn't guessed wrong, Xi Yijun should have gone to Dick's trouble by now.

"Okay."

"Eliminate the influence as much as possible, I don't have anything here, Yijun must pay attention to it, his identity is more special."

"I know Mr. Chu." Wen Yi settled down, and suddenly hesitated slightly: "Mr. Chu, the Yi family and the Xi family are ......."

If this matter is known by the two families, Xi Yijun is still second, and Chu Qiao will definitely suffer.

"It's okay, I'll make it clear to them." I just don't know if I can say it clearly.

"Well, if there is something, you can call me at any time, Assistant Xiao has probably received the news over there, and I want Mr. Yi to go back soon."

"Okay."

Chu Qiao hung up the phone, but there was chaos in his mind.

Although there is really nothing between her and Xi Yijun, such news spreading throughout the entire Z country must have greatly wiped the face of the Yi family and other families, even if it is fair to her, but when it comes to principle, he will definitely not spare her, as can be seen from the farce of the DNA test.

She sat down on the couch with a headache, and her whole body was completely lost in thought......

"Madam, someone from the old mansion has arrived."

As soon as Steward Lu's words fell, Old Man Yi and Yi Anle had already walked in quickly.

"What's going on, why is it making headlines again!" The old man knocked on the ground with his cane in displeasure.

This family simply can't stop, and it's going on in chaos all the time!

"Grandpa, auntie, you sit down first and then talk." Yi Shaojin glanced at Chu Qiao, and stepped forward to help Old Man Yi to the side and sit down on the sofa.

"Xiao Qiao, tell me about the situation, I'm so upset, your brother-in-law made a special call just now, and this matter must be solved as soon as possible." Yi Anle believes that his son and Chu Qiao will never do such a thing, but it does not mean that people outside will believe that if this matter is not handled properly, it will definitely not only affect the two of them.

"I received a phone call before lunch...... "Although Chu Qiao was upset in his heart, he was still quite coherent and explained everything that happened before to the two of them as it was.

"That's what someone designed." Old Man Yi looked at Chu Qiao with a blue face, "Do you know who did it?" ”

"I don't need to ask, Dick, Yi Qingchen's perverted little cousin." Yi Shaojin couldn't help but talk.

"Dick?" Old Man Yi frowned at the moment.

If it were him, it would be really troublesome.

Although Dick himself is incapable, he is now the head of the Stuart family, and there is an old man behind him who has been in black and white for so many years, and if he wants to move him, it is definitely not something that can be done in a while.

"Where's Qingchen?"

Seeing that Chu Qiao was still sitting motionless, Yi Shaojin hurriedly and quietly pushed her.

"Huh? Qingchen? Qingchen went to the airport to pick him up. ”

Old Man Yi sighed slowly, "Then let's wait for him to come back and think about it in the long run." ”

……

On the tarmac of Kyoto International Airport, Yi Qingchen watched coldly as a cook in a white uniform and a chef's hat slowly walked towards him after getting off the plane with the Stuart family mark.

"Young master, this is the lunch that the master specially asked me to prepare for you."

Yi Qingchen stood with his hands in his hands and did not move, Xiao Jin stepped forward and lifted the lid, and there was a Welsh roast rabbit with full color and flavor on the plate.

Wait for the rabbit.

Sure enough, it was a beautiful play!

"Sir......" Xiao Jin was about to speak, when his mobile phone rang.

I don't know what was said on the other end of the phone, Xiao Jin's face immediately became very cold, and after he hung up the phone expressionlessly, he walked to Yi Qingchen's ear and whispered a few words.

Yi Qingchen frowned unhappily, and turned to leave without saying a word.

"Send me a roast suckling pig to London." In the car, he suddenly commanded.

Dick designed to frame Xiao Qiao and Yijun, but at this time, the old man asked him to pick him up in person, how could there be such a coincidence!

"Yes, Yi Dong." Xiao Jin casually sent a text message to tell him about this.

After putting away his phone, he continued to ask, "Song Wan, do you want to clean up first?" ”

This woman is a scourge, she just came out and made waves, he didn't believe that there was no "credit" for Song Wan in this matter, this was her usual routine.

"Not for now, in a few days you can find a way to send her to London, and let my grandfather taste her, I don't think Dick will just let go of this great opportunity." Although the family emblem of the head of the family is not in the old man's hand, he will definitely have news there that they don't know, as long as Song Wan can become the old man's favorite, he will definitely be able to come up with something useful, and it is far easier to get the family emblem of the head of the family from Dick than from the old man.

"Okay, I get Yi Dong." Xiao Jin smiled.

"Change your name."

"Yes, sir."

"Hmm." Yi Qingchen smiled with satisfaction.

The car had just driven into Brittany's manor when I saw two Epah cars parked in front of the door through the window.

Yi Qingchen got out of the car with a cold face and strode towards the door.

In the living room, Old Man Yi was sitting upright, Yi Anle's face was a little ugly, but he was still sitting dignifiedly, Chu Qiao and Yi Shaojin were sitting on the side without saying a word, and Xi Yijun was not there.

"It's back, it's just right." Old Man Yi pointed to the tablet on the coffee table with his crutches, "Let's take a look at this news first, this is the picture I specially asked Shaojin to intercept." ”

"I've seen it." Yi Qingchen said calmly: "It's just Dick's means, there is nothing worth it for you to mobilize the people, I believe that Xiao Qiao and Yijun, there must be some misunderstanding here." ”

"Xiao Qiao has already explained it to us, of course we believe that the two of them are nothing, but this matter is now in an uproar, even if it is deleted, but how can people's mouths be blocked? Yijun will enter politics in two years, and he will definitely appear in the media often, which will greatly affect his political image. ”

Yi Qingchen didn't answer Old Man Yi's words, but sat down beside Chu Qiao with concern, raised his hand to brush her hanging hair, and then brushed her down, "I've been wronged again." ”

Chu Qiao shook his head, he wanted to say something, but in front of Old Man Yi and Yi Anle, he still held back.

"I'm sorry." She said suddenly.

Although she really has nothing to do with Yijun, almost half of the people in country Z saw the news just now, and unintentionally put a super-large "green hat" on Yi Qingchen's head that shimmered with dazzling light, he is a man, which is tantamount to erasing his dignity.

Chu Qiao felt guilty as soon as he thought about it.

"Fool, it's not your fault." He took her little hand into his palm and patted it gently, "Don't worry, I'm here, don't worry about anything." ”

"What about Yijun? Did the call go through? ”

Yi Anle and Yi Shaojin both shook their heads, "No, no one answered." ”

"This stinky boy! Where did you learn the bad fault, why don't you answer the phone and buy a mobile phone! Give me a look for it, immediately send someone out to find it, now at such a critical juncture, I still dare to hang outside, if I am photographed by someone with a heart and I don't know what kind of lace news to provoke! ”

"I got it, Dad." Yi Anle hurriedly took his mobile phone and walked to the side again.

"Look, look." Yi Shaojin suddenly held his mobile phone in front of everyone.

This time, not only the hot search headlines, but also the major media also published such a news.

[The relationship between the three young men of the Yi family and the young lady and sister-in-law of the Stuart family is purely fabricated, and the female staff of the hotel present is the legitimate girlfriend of the three young people......]

Under the text, there is a photo of Xi Yijun and a sweet girl.

Chu Qiao recognized the girl at a glance, it was the floor manager who had entered the guest room to expel the reporters before.

"What is this?" Old Man Yi finally couldn't bear it anymore and was furious.

What kind of woman is a real girlfriend, so what is the simplicity of working in a hotel? Nonsense, it's just nonsense!

The people in this family, one or two, are getting more and more disagreeable!

Yi Anle stared at Yi Shaojin's mobile phone in shock, his slender fingers trembling slightly.

In just one day, so many incredible things have happened!

She really can't digest this brain.

"Call him, call him right away!"

"Grandpa, don't you pick it up at all?" Yi Shaojin whispered.

"If you don't pick up, keep fighting, and hit him until he picks it up!" Things are messy enough, and they dare to pull out any women, isn't it messy enough!

"Yes, Grandpa." Yi Shaojin pursed his lips, hugged his mobile phone and nested on the sofa again and began to chase souls over and over again.

Half an hour later, there was still no result, and Xi Yijun's mobile phone was directly and automatically turned off.

"I guess it's out of power." Yi Shaojin shook his phone at the old man, don't blame me now.

Old Man Yi angrily took out his mobile phone and was about to dial, when he saw Xi Yijun leading the girl who appeared in the photo with him just now towards them from a distance.

"Grandpa." He calmly took the girl's hand and walked to the old man.

"Hello." The girl greeted the old man obediently.

Old Man Yi snorted coldly and turned his face away.

Yi Shaojin quietly looked at Xi Yijun Nunu and reminded him to hurry up and explain this messy matter, otherwise grandpa and aunt would have to go crazy!

"Yijun! You're finally back! Yi Anle happened to come back from the bathroom, but his face changed obviously after seeing the girl next to Xi Yijun.

Why did you really bring people back?

"Mom."

Seeing Xi Yijun calling her mother, the girl hurriedly said politely: "Hello aunt." ”

"Hello." Yi Anle smiled dignified and detached.

"Yijun, what do you want to do, you can't mess around!" She pulled Xi Yijun aside and warned in a low voice.

"This is my girlfriend, haven't you been worried about this before? I've brought it back to you today, and I'll marry her. ”

Although Xi Yijun said this, there was no tenderness in his eyes, not at all like a person who was in love.
