The atmosphere in He Fenglei's house is extremely strange, this atmosphere has lasted for many days, and today it is even stronger, because the four major leaders of the Jade Casting Society are present, and the four people are sitting around the mahjong table, although there is a good mahjong in front of them, but no one moves, and everyone remains silent.

And He Chenxue sat upstairs in her own room, to be exact, it was her room with her sister He Yuejia, after she became independent, she never came back to live at all, but the furnishings in the room were still the same as back then, it should be said that it was exactly the same as when He Yuejia disappeared.

He Chenxue didn't go downstairs, she wasn't stupid, although when she was underground, she didn't hear what Xingshu and Xuan Tong said, but when she woke up, the moment she saw Xuan Tong, she knew that the person in front of her was the weird person who ran to her house and argued with her parents.

She also speculated that it was the Xuan family, and she also realized what had happened between the four major workers and the Xuan family, and now the following four people were discussing how to solve it, but what she didn't expect was that all this was related to her life experience.

At the table downstairs, He Fenglei, Ding Wan'an, and Ai Xingling deliberately sat closer, using this form to isolate Fan Junyi, who was sitting opposite, and Fan Junyi put tobacco leaves into his pipe, shook them out, and put them in again, doing this kind of thing repeatedly.

"Xiaofan, you are the youngest among us, what do you say to do this time?" Ding Wanan said.

Fan Junyi didn't speak, just with an incomprehensible smile, He Fenglei looked at his expression, raised his hand and slapped the table, and shook a row of mahjong with his hand: "Fan Junyi!" We knew you did it! You think you're smart? You layout, we also layout, no matter how smart you are, you can't count the three of us! ”

Ai Xingling grabbed He Fenglei's hand and motioned him to calm down, and He Fenglei sat down again.

Ding Wanan said again: "We are all here today not to hold you accountable, let alone to ask for an explanation, but to know what to do next." ”

"What should I do?" Fan Junyi finally spoke, "Simple, cancel the four major first jobs, and return the chair that belongs to the Xuan family to Xuan Tong." ”

When He Fenglei heard this, he sneered: "Next, you should be able to convince Xuan Tong to remove the three of us from the Jade Casting Society, right?" ”

"If you want to be removed, it will definitely include me, do you think I can run away? I was one of the usurpers back then. Fan Junyi said lightly, "Three, that's enough, for so many years, how much money have we made by relying on the jade casting club?" I can't count it, I can't spend it in a few lifetimes, and it's enough for your children and grandchildren to squander, it's time to stop. ”

"The surname is Fan! Are you crazy? He Fenglei said angrily, "Don't forget, you've been involved in everything, and you can't get out of it!" ”

Ai Xingling didn't stop He Fenglei this time, but just stared at Fan Junyi coldly.

As soon as Fan Jun picked up his pipe, slowly lit a cigarette, and spit out a string of smoke rings, he said: "The jade market is already chaotic, whether it is China or abroad, everyone knows what those jade things are on the street?" What grade? A bracelet with a price of tens of thousands, the purchase price is only a few hundred yuan, people say to do business, do not do without 45% of the profit, but in the jade business, sometimes the profit can reach 80%, how terrible. ”

Ding Wanan frowned: "What do you mean?" ”

Fan Jun smoked his pipe, and said for a long time: "The business we have done over the years, in a sense, does not break the law, but the reason for not breaking the law is that the law is blank in this regard, and the price of jade is in the hands of a few people. ”

As he spoke, Fan Junyi looked up: "Look at this villa, I remember that when Brother He bought it, it was only three million even for decoration and household appliances, right?" How many years ago was that, and there were only a handful of people who could buy a villa at that time, and now it's worth tens of millions, and you, Second Brother Ding. ”

Fan Junyi pointed at Ding Wanan with a pipe: "How much are your repair shops, two gold and jade shops, and so many real estate and commercial clothes?" Do you know what to expect? Of course, there is also me, those gadgets in my house, any one of them can make an ordinary person live for many years, what reason do I have to harm myself? However, that chair was originally owned by the Xuan family, and it was returned to the Xuan family, and we didn't lose anything, so what if we left the Jade Casting Society? Over the years, we have long violated the purpose of the Jade Casting Society, and we are just making money through this name, don't be greedy. ”

He Fenglei was about to get angry again, but his hand was grabbed from under the table by Ai Xingling, and he had to hold back.

Ding Wanan said: "Xiaofan, no one will be disgusted with a lot of money, but if that chair is really returned to the Xuan family, and Xuan Tong comes back to take charge of the Jade Casting Society, have you ever thought about what he will do?" And what about the disciples below us? Will they listen to the Xuan family? No, they are brought out by us, there are more than a dozen national-level appraisers alone, with superior skills, almost all of them are people from the Jade Casting Society in the entire Great North, if Xuan Tong is in power, he will definitely reform the Jade Casting Society, the four of us don't care, but the disciples below are definitely unwilling, something will happen. ”

"Something? What could happen? Fan Junyi suddenly laughed, "Are you the underworld when we are?" Rushing to be the boss? Whoever doesn't obey, the younger brother below will rise up and rebel? Second Brother Ding, drink some tea and sober up, the current Jade Casting Society is no longer the previous Jade Casting Society, the law will become more and more sound, and the disciples who will suffer at that time will also be the disciples, and the previous Jade Casting Society will be innocent. ”

Ding Wanan said coldly: "Innocence? If you want to be innocent, why don't you sweep the streets? Those who sweep the streets are very innocent, which industry does not have its own secrets? Are you stupid to smoke a pipe? ”

Fan Jun didn't speak, just laughed, and the atmosphere at the scene became tense.

He Chenxue in the upstairs room vaguely heard the quarrel of the people below, but she didn't want to go out and listen carefully, she knew very well that there were some things that she knew as little as possible. Now she feels very helpless and contradictory, and whenever she encounters this kind of time, the first thing she thinks of is torture.

Thinking of this, He Chenxue's hand touched the mobile phone, checked the address book and found the number of the torture technique, and when he was about to dial out, there was a knock on the door, and He Chenxue subconsciously asked, "Who?" ”

"Me." Ai Xingling said outside the door, "I brought you a plate of fruit, and your father won't eat it." ”

"Mom." He Chenxue got up and opened the door, looked at Ai Xingling who was holding the fruit plate outside the door, and took the fruit plate.

Axing stood in the doorway and asked, "Can I go in?" ”

He Chenxue nodded, turned around and entered the house, put the fruit plate on the table, and sat cross-legged back on the bed, Ai Xingling closed the door, sat on the edge of the bed, and looked out the window, the pine tree in the yard outside the window, when I bought it back, I thought it was a dwarf pine, but I didn't expect it to grow taller and taller, and some of the branches almost blocked the window on the second floor.

"Chenxue, I'm sorry." Ai Xingling turned her head to look at He Chenxue.

"Mom, what's wrong with you?" He Chenxue was a little surprised, "Why do you say this?" ”

Ai Xingling said: "I told you before, Guan Zhiqing is your grandmother's business, it was a lie to you, because you always pestered us, who are your biological parents, on the premise of no way, we made up a story, originally thought that it was an unsolved case, you definitely can't know what is going on, who knows the torture and you, it is even clear." ”

He Chenxue shook her head slightly: "It's okay, I understand, I know that you actually do this, because you don't want me to leave you after I find my biological parents one day, I won't, I just want to know, there is a saying that 'biological mother is not as big as adoptive mother', I especially understand the meaning of this sentence, my parents raised me and my sister very hard, even if I say it, I can't really understand it now, maybe, one day I have a child, I will fully understand it." ”

Ai Xingling nodded: "It's good if you understand, that ......"

He Chenxue looked at Ai Xingling, knowing that she had something to say, Ai Xingling hesitated for a long time, and finally held back a sentence: "What do you want to eat?" Is it okay for mom to make you pot wrapped meat? Your favorite thing is to eat pot wrapped meat. ”

He Chenxue shook her head: "No need, I made an appointment with a friend, I have to go out." ”

"Okay." Ai Xingling got up with relief, she was afraid that He Chenxue would ask what she was going to say before, because what she wanted to say was enough to change He Chenxue's life.

Perhaps, now is really not the time.

Ai Xingling walked out of the door and said to herself, "Is it that when the child grows up, he doesn't like to eat pot-wrapped meat?" ”

He Chenxue followed Ai Xingling downstairs, and while going downstairs, she quickly sent a text message to Xingshu, saying that she would go to the pawnshop of Xingshu to find him and ask him to wait.

The moment the footsteps of Ai Xingling and He Chenxue came from the stairs, the three people who were still arguing around the table instantly fell silent, everyone knew that no matter how big the contradiction was, there was one principle that must be followed - disaster will not happen to the family.

Even though He Chenxue is also a disciple of the Jade Casting Society, even if her life experience is directly related to that incident, she has always been the child in everyone's hearts, the innocent little princess.

"Dad, Uncle Fan, Uncle Wan, I have something to do, so I won't accompany you to dinner." He Chenxue stood there and said softly.

He Fenglei immediately asked, "Where are you going?" With whom? ”

Ding Wanan said: "The morning snow is so big, why do you care so much?" Go ahead, be careful, do you have any money? ”

As he spoke, Ding Wanan took out a stack of money from his wallet and handed it over.

Fan Junyi smiled at the other end: "Chenxue is not short of money, but people lack love now." ”

He Chenxue's face flushed, and she knew in her heart that as soon as Fan Jun knew who she was going to see, she waved her hand and said, "No need", and went to the door to change her shoes after saying goodbye, while Ai Xingling kept standing next to her, telling this and that.

"Who is she going to see?" He Fenglei realized it, got up and was about to go over, but was dragged by Ding Wanan.

Ding Wanan frowned and said, "It's all a matter of time, are you going to do it?" Sit down! ”

Fan Junyi also smiled: "Yes, sooner or later she will get married, what you need to worry about is who she marries, not whether she marries or not." ”

The appearance of He Chenxue changed the originally tense and weird atmosphere in an instant, and the four first workers who were originally in the confrontation immediately became elders who were worried about their juniors, and He Chenxue put on her shoes and said goodbye again, after the sound of the door closing came from the direction of the door, the expressions of the three people at the table changed back to their previous appearance - as if everyone was playing their roles according to the set script.

He Chenxue left the house like a fled, and if she stayed any longer, she would not be able to breathe, not only because she returned to that room again, but also because of the strange aura generated by the four first workers in the house, she had always been a little disgusted with being in that kind of environment that was not pure, but also pretended to be simple, and was pretentious and hypocritical.

He Chenxue got into a taxi and quickly rushed to the pawnshop of the torture technique, the moment she walked into the pawnshop and saw the torture technique, she relaxed, but at the same time, the voice in her head reminded herself that she and the torture technique were just ordinary friends.

"What's wrong with you? Breathless. Torture asked with concern, and naturally took her bag, "Is something happening?" ”

He Chenxue shook his head: "No, it's nothing, by the way, Pan Feng's case has been completely solved?" ”

Xingshu nodded, made hot tea for He Chenxue, and then explained the cause and effect of the matter.

After the torture was finished, He Chenxue was silent, she didn't know what to say, because the truth of the matter was completely beyond the scope of her brain to think.

"By the way, what about Hu Sanqian?" He Chenxue looked up and asked.

Xingshu said: "I live in Lianfeng for the time being, I don't know if I need him for the next thing, if it weren't for him this time, maybe we would have died under there." ”

"No......" He Chenxue immediately shook her head, "I don't know how to describe it, but I always feel that Pan Feng and the person who helped him will not harm us, just for planning, if we are really in danger, they will definitely help us tide over the difficulties." ”

Torture smiled, "Maybe." ”

"And ......," He Chenxue hesitated and asked, "Did you find the person who stole Rulai's eyes?" ”

Xingshu knew that Ai Xingling and He Fenglei definitely didn't tell her the truth, but said: "I found it, but things are a bit complicated, and Rulai Eye was not lost in the first place, in short, I think this matter has just begun." ”

He Chenxue knew that the torture technique was difficult, so she didn't ask anymore, but said, "What about the clues of the peerless painting?" ”

"What I know now is that the real peerless painting was painted by Chen Wenjing, and it was in the basement below the peerless building, Chen Daxu imitated it later, but because there was not much time difference, and the real painting was in the hands of Qi Baye, he deposited it in an auction house, where the security measures were complete, I was going to see it today, I spent money to buy it." I don't know why, Xingshu felt that it was strange to talk to He Chenxue at this time, and he always felt that there seemed to be something more between the two, but he couldn't say what was more.

He Chenxue asked, "Can I go together?" ”

"Of course, let's go." Xingshu immediately got up, closed the pawnshop, and led He Chenxue to the auction house.

While the two of them went to the auction house, in He Fenglei's villa, the four of them were still arguing about whether to return power to Xuan Tong and whether to reform the jade casting, and the grumpy He Fenglei had already broken the table, and even almost started a fight with Fan Jun.

"That's it! Don't be noisy! Ai Xingling finally couldn't help but get angry, "Sit down, keep your voice down, this is my home, I like to be quiet!" ”

Fan Junyi and Ding Wanan stopped talking, He Fenglei got up and walked towards the kitchen, about to get wine, but was stopped by Ai Xingling.

"Stop! Come back! Sit down! Ai Xingling frowned, and He Fenglei had to sit down according to his wife's instructions, glaring at Fan Junyi opposite.

"How to solve this matter, let's vote, but let me say first, this time, I am inclined to Fan Junyi, I think he is right, we owe the Xuan family, it is time to pay it back." Ai Xingling said calmly.

He Fenglei stared at his wife with wide eyes: "What did you say?" What do we owe to the family? What do we owe to the Xuan family? What did the Xuan family give us again! You ......" He Fenglei said and glanced at Fan Junyi again, and finally said that sentence, "It's been decades, and you still miss his old feelings, don't you?" You're my wife! ”

Fan Jun shook his head and said in a low voice: "Isn't this nonsense? Of course she's your wife. ”

"Fan Junyi, you shut up Lao Tzu!" He Fenglei roared, "I'll tell you, if you don't make it clear to Lao Tzu today, don't want to walk out of this door!" ”

Ding Wanan pinched the mahjong and frowned at Fan Junyi, who was as calm as ever, and Ai Xingling was not angry at what He Fenglei said in a hurry, but said calmly: "Fenglei, the reason why I want to say that is completely for Chenxue, what if Xuantong knows Chenxue's life experience?" What if Chenxue knew about her background? I think that we will return the Xuan family to the Xuan family, maybe Xuan Tong will look at this and will not pursue some things. ”

When He Fenglei heard Ai Xingling say this, he was immediately deflated, sat down, and said for a long time: "How could Xuan Tong know about that." Saying that, He Fenglei raised his head sharply and looked at Fan Junyi opposite, and at this time, Ding Wanan also looked at Fan Junyi.

He Fenglei gritted his teeth and said, "Fan Junyi, did you tell Xuan Tong about that incident?" ”

Fan Jun shook his head: "I'm not that stupid, to say something unpleasant, that incident is a chip in our hands, say it, is it still called a bargaining chip?" ”

He Fenglei breathed a sigh of relief: "That's right, Xuan Tong can't know!" ”

Fan Jun shook his head: "Not necessarily, you must know that if Xuan Tong had carefully looked at Chen Xue's eyes, he would have known that Chen Xue was the Xuan family, because she was a green pupil, and the Xuan family was a green pupil!" ”

As soon as these words came out, the three people on the opposite side glanced at each other, and none of them spoke again, and the whole room became dead silent.

At this moment, the phone in Fan Junyi's pocket suddenly rang, he took out a mobile phone from his pocket, looked at it, and found that it was not this phone ringing, subconsciously took out another old-fashioned mobile phone, looked at the caller ID on it, frowned and shook his head: "It must be some kind of intermediary phone." ”

As he spoke, Fan Junyi put the phone on the table, and the moment he put it down, Fan Junyi suddenly realized something, and he grabbed the phone again.

Fan Junyi's movements made the three people on the other side feel deeply strange, they saw Fan Junyi pick up the phone with a trembling hand, and then put it to his ear, and only spit out a word in his trembling lips for a long time: "Hey? ”

"Hey-" A familiar voice came from the telephone receiver, Fan Jun was stunned, and subconsciously stood up, and the earpiece of the old-fashioned telephone was very loud, causing the other three to also hear the "hey" clearly, and then a sentence came from the receiver, "Dad, I'm back, I'm so hungry, the aunt you invited doesn't know why, she ran away when she saw me, I can't find anything to eat, you help me buy a Ronghua fried chicken back, thank you." ”

After speaking, the phone hung up, Fan Jun was stupid, and the three people on the other side who heard the voice in the microphone clearly were all stupid, everyone's minds began to go blank, and then four words appeared in the blank - how is it possible?

Because it was none other than Fan Meng, who had died in Xiangxi many years ago!
