Chapter 780: Asking for help

"How do you ......"

It may be that Song Qingxiao's appearance and her appearance that has not changed like back then have had too much impact, and Zhou Ye was speechless as soon as he opened his mouth.

"Long time no see."

Song Qingxiao didn't expect that after she returned from the sea of stars, the first person to recognize herself would be such an acquaintance.

She and Zhou Ye met through Luo Wu's introduction, and the house was bought through his introduction, but since she entered the reserve team, she has never had contact with Zhou Ye again.

Judging from the situation he came, he should have taken care of the maintenance and maintenance of this house.

This is extremely rare.

Song Qingxiao's words undoubtedly confirmed Zhou Ye's inner guess, and after the initial impact, an extreme excitement and curiosity surged into his heart one after another, diluting the heaviness on his face by several points:

"Miss Song, it's really you."

After confirming Song Qingxiao's identity, Zhou Ye let out a long sigh of relief, as if he remembered something, he smiled:

"Mr. Luo would be very happy if he knew that you were back."

Song Qingxiao couldn't help but move in his heart when he heard him mention Luo Wu.

He was so busy that he was about to take out his mobile phone and inform Luo Wu, and he couldn't stop saying:

"I haven't heard from you for nearly ten years, and the phone hasn't gone through again, I didn't expect to meet you today......"

"Leave him alone." Song Qing commanded aloud: "I have something to ask you." ”

Zhou Ye was much older than her, but there was an undoubted firmness in her words at this time, so that Zhou Ye involuntarily obeyed her instructions, and instinctively put down the mobile phone that was about to be dialed.

"You say."

"You have been taking care of my house all these years?"

"Yes." After hearing Song Qingxiao's question, Zhou Ye held back the excitement in his heart and patted his head: "You just came back, I really should tell you first." ”

When he said this, he mentioned it from that year.

After Song Qingxiao luckily picked up a life in the hands of Qianshan, with the help of Captain An, he hid in the reserves.

Before leaving, he borrowed a car from Zhou Ye, originally wanting to send the silver wolf to the sea of stars, but he gave up because the silver wolf was unwilling to leave.

On the last time he met him, Song Qingxiao revealed that he was going to go on a long trip.

At that time, Zhou Ye thought of the rumors that the house was haunted, and coupled with her acquaintance with Luo Zhiyu, he thought that Song Qingxiao was going out because it was related to the house, and he felt a little guilty.

"When you left, you entrusted me to take care of this house for you."

Because of this, since Song Qingxiao left, every month he would regularly invite someone to come over to clean and clean, and let people help change bed sheets and bedding.

Every week he would come and see it in person, and he would also put some food in the fridge and so on.

originally thought that Song Qingxiao's departure would be as little as ten days and a half months, and as long as a year and a half, but he didn't expect that his care would be ten years.

Song Qingxiao's divine sense is strong and her memory is good, and when he said this, it reminded her of the events of the past.

Indeed, as Zhou Ye said, when she left here to go to the reserves, she asked Zhou Ye to help her take care of the house.

It's just that she didn't expect that after she left, when she came back again, it would be ten years later.

And in the past ten years, she has spent eight years in the sea of stars, cultivating every day to improve her strength, and she has never thought about returning to the imperial capital and this house.

Her unintentional entrustment back then would make such an ordinary person persevere.

"It was fine at the beginning of the year, but I was a little curious later." Zhou Ye said, "So I went to ask Mr. Luo. ”

At that time, Luo Zhiyu had a strange attitude, as if he was a little apprehensive, but also seemed to be relieved.

His expression was extremely complicated, and after a while, he seemed to hint at him with a vague attitude, asking him not to tell others about his familiar relationship with Song Qingxiao.

When Zhou Ye heard Luo Zhiyu's words at that time, he couldn't help but wonder in his heart whether there was any conflict between the two of them, which caused Luo Zhiyu to clear up the relationship.

He was feeling uneasy, and for some reason, Luo Zhiyu secretly confessed to him again, saying that if Song Qingxiao came back, or contacted him, he must inform him.

After that, Song Qingxiao naturally never appeared again, and after she left for about two or three years, I don't know what happened, Luo Zhiyu warned him not to mention this matter again, as if he was extremely taboo about Song Qingxiao's existence.

Zhou Ye was also curious about the relationship between Luo Zhiyu and Song Qingxiao, but Song Qingxiao bought the house at his own expense, and when Luo Zhiyu mentioned her, it seemed to be jealous and defensive, which was very different from what he originally imagined.

After a long time, seeing that Luo Zhiyu did not allow him to mention Song Qingxiao, Zhou Ye was also interested in not asking anymore.

But he still remembered that he met Luo Zhiyu because of Song Qingxiao, and now the Luo family is far more developed than at the beginning, and it is extremely powerful in the empire.

He also received Song Qingxiao's love for buying a house back then, so he remembered Song Qingxiao's entrustment, even if she didn't hear from her for ten years, he would come over once a week.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Sometimes I come and check it, doors, windows, circuits, etc. Occasionally, he would buy some fresh food and replace the expiring food in the fridge.

When Zhou Ye did this, ten years passed unconsciously.

Although he mentioned these things that were not a big deal, and it didn't matter what he was doing them for, just because Song Qingxiao mentioned them in passing, he had been taking care of this house until now, which was enough to make Song Qingxiao think highly of him.

"You've helped me, what do you need my help with?"

When Zhou Ye heard her say this, he couldn't help but smile bitterly:

"It's just a small thing." He waved his hand repeatedly, "What's moreβ€”"

He looked a little hesitant, but he saw that Song Qingxiao's eyes were calm, as if he was waiting for him to continue.

For some reason, Zhou Ye didn't have the heart to resist at all under her gaze, and immediately said:

"Don't hide it from Miss Song, I have waited for so many years, and it is also a good thing to be able to see you come back, and I finally live up to your trust."

He hesitated for a moment, then sighed:

"I came here today, in fact, I also plan to take a final look at the house to see if there is any place for renovation, and it may be entrusted to someone else in the future."

Zhou Ye smiled reluctantly:

"I've been in some trouble lately and probably won't live long." He is only over forty years old, and judging from the lifespan of ordinary people in the empire today, he is still very young, but he says that his life will not be long.

Song Qingxiao motioned for him to continue, and at the same time released a trace of divine consciousness and probed into him.

It's strange to say, he is obviously just an ordinary person, but at this time, his soul is extremely weak, as if some oil has run out, and it is indeed as he said, as he said, it seems that he does not have a long life.

There seemed to be a strange aura on his body, covering up his original aura, and skillfully blending with his blood and bones to become one.

"A month ago, I got a big order."

Someone contacted Zhou Ye, saying that he wanted to sell an ancient building in the northern suburbs, contacted him, and asked him to take charge of the matter personally.

Zhou Ye is now doing a lot of business, and he is no longer responsible for such a sale, sale and purchase of a house.

However, the ancient building mentioned by this person was built more than 100 years ago and has been passed down to the present day, and has extremely high artistic value.

When he heard this, he was overjoyed, and hastened to do so.

When Zhou Ye rushed to the ancient building in the northern suburbs according to the instructions of the person on the phone, he found that the person did not appear as promised, but saw a small ancient mirror hanging above the gate.

The people who went with them knocked on the door for a long time, but no one responded, and finally they returned in frustration.

originally thought it was a prank, but when Zhou Ye came back, he found that he had a black key on his body for some reason.

And after getting this black key, Zhou Ye felt that something was wrong.

He always felt like he was following something behind him, and sometimes he had some hallucinations, and he began to feel that he was running low on energy.

In just half a month, he lost weight, and he often felt very tired and his face was wrong.

He tried to see a doctor, but after all the tests, the doctor said that he was in good health, which was the reason why he may have been busy with work recently, which caused him to lose energy.

In the end, the doctor prescribed him a lot of tonic medicine and told him to go home on his own to recuperate.

After the doctor said this, Zhou Ye knew that something had happened.

After realizing that his situation was not right, he had already suspended his work and rested for a long time, but the more he rested, the more tired he felt.

It was as if a heavy mountain had been pressed on his body, and he often felt out of breath.

What frightened him the most was when he found that the key he had gotten from the old house seemed to be in his bag at all times.

When he got the key, he didn't care.

After all, in this era, with the rapid development of science and technology, many houses have already become intelligent induction, such keys have been eliminated decades ago, and he was very surprised when he touched the key, thinking that he might have fallen from a corner of the ancient house when he was walking around the ancient house.

He then put the matter behind him, until a few days later, when he stumbled upon the key in his new clothes.

The first time, he thought he might have inadvertently put the key in the pocket of his new clothes, and after touching the strange key, he put it in a drawer.

"I thought at the time, this thing belongs to the owner of the ancient house, even if he tricks me, but after all, he wants the thing to return to the original owner." He was busy with affairs at that time, and although he felt that he was not energetic after going to the ancient house, he didn't think much about it, until a few days later, he received a strange phone call, which ignited the fear in Zhou Ye's heart.

"I got another call from the owner of the old house."

When he said this, the muscles in his face twitched violently, and his eyes seemed to tremble violently because of fear, and it was obvious that he was terrified in his heart.

"He complained to me, why did he throw things around."

In fact, when Zhou Ye first received a call from the owner of the ancient house, he was very angry, he was summoned to the door, and played a trick, and finally returned in vain, not to mention, the owner of the ancient house called to blame him, saying that he threw things around.

His first instinct was to think that the owner of the old house might have slandered himself for throwing garbage outside his old house.

Zhou Ye retorted at the time that he was not such a person, but as soon as his voice fell, he heard the other side hang up the phone.

When he called back again, it showed that the number could not be reached and was not in the service area.

"I was so bored that I was going to find someone to help me find out who this person was." At that time, he thought that he might be doing this business, whether he had accidentally offended someone, but when he was about to touch the car keys after going out, he found the strange black key in his pocket.

This discovery surprised Zhou Ye.

He clearly remembered that he had put the key in the drawer, why did it appear on him again now?

At this time, Zhou Ye had already realized that something was wrong, and he immediately turned back to the office, only to find that the key he had put in the drawer had indeed disappeared.

Zhou Ye first thought that this might be a prank, after all, although he put the black key into the office, the company was full of people, and it was not ruled out that someone deliberately wanted to stir up trouble.

It's just that for some reason, he felt that this idea was not valid, because he thought of a call from the owner of the old house, accusing him of throwing things.

Thinking of this, Zhou Ye's hair immediately stood on end.

He is not completely unconvinced, after all, the house of Song Qingxiao that he handled back then happened to be haunted.

With this thought, he had the intention of putting the key farther away.

He didn't dare to let it go at home, Zhou Ye was married and had children, in order to avoid bringing some bad 'dirty things' to his family, he chose to go to the hotel to live temporarily.

He specially chose a hotel that was farthest away from his usual place of work and residence, and when he left the hotel, he put the key in a corner of the hotel bathroom.

After the release, he immediately left the hotel and drove away without daring to stop.

At that time, he still felt a little weak-hearted, and he was also worried about whether his actions would not be too kind, and bring some bad luck to the hotel or the next tenant.

But at the same time, there is a kind of luck in his heart, hoping that he is just thinking too much, maybe there is nothing strange at all, the black key is just too special, maybe when the employee enters his office, he sees this key, maybe he thinks that this thing is very important to him, so he is afraid that he will lose it and put it in his bag.

But no matter how much he tried to comfort himself, he had begun to feel scared, and he didn't even dare to touch his pockets.

It's just that I can hide for a while, but I can't hide for a lifetime.

After Zhou Ye drove away from the hotel in a car, he touched his bag by surprise, "And the black key happens to be in my bag." ”

This discovery completely shattered Zhou Ye's composure, this key was put into the hotel bathroom by his own hand, and he left immediately after putting it away, he didn't touch anyone in the middle, it was impossible for someone to put this key back in his pocket.
