Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, it's time for the New Year.

The liveliness of the New Year has always been extraordinary.

It's just that the Jiang family is a little strange, it's okay to say it's lively, it's okay to say it's cold - it's lively to be lively in the cry of children, cold is cold, and there is a lack of family members at home.

Jiang's mother said: "Xiao Jiang won't come back for the New Year, what's the good time being alone outside?" I think she just grows up and is promising, and the family is not serious. ”

Jiang Guopan raised his eyebrows and said coldly: "If the child doesn't come back, that's the child's business, what are you doing so yin and yang?" ”

Mother Jiang opened her mouth and was silent.

Two months ago, Jiang Huifan deceived the maid one night and suddenly ran out of the house.

But within hours, she returned.

It's that the eyes are red, the face is also red, I don't know if it's cold or what, the whole person is shivering. I didn't talk to anyone, I plunged into the bed, slept for more than a day, and then woke up and fell seriously ill.

The doctor said it was caused by a few days of malnutrition and a cold from the cold.

Jiang Guopan scolded her for a long time, the originally well-behaved and clever little girl seemed to have changed her temperament, no matter what Jiang Guopan said, she didn't raise her eyebrows, and she was very stubborn.

And Qu Heyang was also frightened, guarding her without saying a word all day long, and her work was like moving to her ward. He didn't move out until she was discharged from the hospital.

It's just that he works hard and complains, and Jiang Huifan never pays attention to him.

Jiang's mother only sympathized with him at first, but soon she couldn't sympathize, and she didn't feel much better compared to her. No, for the New Year, I won't even go home.

Jiang Yifan's wife went upstairs with the child, and shouted Jiang Yifan to go up and take the child, the latter said something and said to Jiang's mother: "Oh, by the way, Qu Heyang will come over to pay New Year's greetings later, you remember to go to bed later." ”

Jiang's mother answered.

Qu Heyang really came over not long after, and Jiang's mother had already prepared snacks for him in advance. He chatted with her for a while before he spoke, "Didn't Xiao Jiang come back?" ”

Mother Jiang sighed, he came over to see Jiang Huifan, everyone knows this in their hearts. She said, "I didn't come." ”

"Didn't come over for the New Year?" He frowned.

"That's right." Jiang's mother said, "What happened at the beginning, after Xiao Jiang got sick, why didn't he go home?" ”

Two months ago, she didn't know why she locked up Xiao Jiang and didn't let her go out.

Qu Heyang pursed his lips and didn't explain seriously, he only sat euphemistically for a while, and had no intention of staying.

But he didn't go back, but drove to Jiang Huifanna. It's the New Year, and it's so lively everywhere, but the light in Jiang Huifan's room is dim at this time, and it looks so deserted.

Qu Heyang smoked a cigarette and looked downstairs for a while, threw away the cigarette butt, and walked upstairs with his feet.

He knocked on Jiang Huifan's door, but no one came to open it.

He called her quietly, and the ringtone on the other side of the phone rang, but it was still unanswered.

Qu Heyang was also quite patient, dialing over and over again, and then he heard her mobile phone ringing from behind him, followed by some vague footsteps.

He looked back almost immediately, and then saw Jiang Huifan coming in against the wall, so drunk that he couldn't even tell who he was when he looked at him.

"Don't go back for the New Year?"

"I don't want to go back."

"Running out for a drink and not saying a word?" He asked, frowning.

"Temporary rise, not planned." She burped slightly.

"Next time, I won't allow that." Qu Heyang was a little helpless, and he was only helpless.

Jiang Huifan leaned against the wall and walked a few steps into him, squinting his eyes and looking up at him in front of him, and then suddenly hugged him.

In the past two months, she has been lukewarm to him, occasionally listening to a few words when she threatens, but she has never been so active as she is now.

Qu Heyang was a little flattered, and even his eyes were a lot gentler, gently wrapped his arms around her waist, and said in a soft voice: "You can't always be angry with your family, an outsider will have your biological father?" Xiao Jiang, you put away your thorns a little, there are many people who still love you. ”

A lot of people.

Including me.

Jiang Huifan was dizzy and shouted a few words silently.

Qu Heyang didn't hear clearly, so he leaned down and listened carefully, only to hear clearly what she said: "Qudu, are you back?" ”

He paused, his eyes almost immediately cold, and the strength of his arms around her waist increased a lot.

Jiang Huifan was a little painful, and almost immediately sobered up a lot, and the man with a cold face in front of her made her pause for a while, and her expression returned to a detached appearance.

Yes, it can't be Qudu's.

Qudu's whereabouts have been unknown since he was taken away.

"Do you think he'll ever come back?" Qu Heyang controlled his emotions and said lightly, "My uncle has already announced that he is not his biological son, and the Qu family has no ability to defect to his part." As a result, the domestic industry is scattered, and the withdrawal of capital is withdrawn. There's no place for him here, and you think he'll come back? ”

In addition, almost all of the Qu family is in Qu Heyang's own hands, and the real power is all with him, Qu Du is looking for death when he comes back.

Jiang Huifan didn't make a sound, ignored it, and pretended not to hear it.

This action annoyed him, he pinched her chin and said coldly: "Jiang Huifan, don't force me." ”

She still looked at him without emotion.

In the end, he had no choice but to compromise and said: "Even if it is not about the industry, after he was taken away, he disappeared, who can know where his traces are?" Maybe ...... sooner rather than later."

Today's society is clean enough, but clean enough does not mean that there is no filth at all.

Man dies for money, and birds die for food. Qu Du moved a lot of people's cakes, and naturally some people would try their best to bring him down to protect their own interests.

It's just that I have to say that he has a lot of strength, even though others are missing, the people under him have also cleaned up those who took him.

The reason why everyone is sure that Qu Du is missing is that he did not appear at the time of the Qu family's equity transfer.

Of course, there is also a theory that he was seriously injured, and the people under his men said that he was missing in order to let him heal his injuries well and not cause chaos.

Jiang Huifan raised his eyes and looked at him, and suddenly smiled: "Blame me for thinking about him now?" ”

She said lightly: "If you didn't stop me at that time, maybe there would be no such thing." I don't know if you've heard that sentence, what you can't get is always in turmoil, you see, isn't this a commotion now? ”

Qu Heyang calmly looked down and did not speak.

Jiang Huifan pushed him away and smiled shallowly: "If you drink too much, you have to rest, Mr. Qu will take care of himself." ”

She opened the door neatly and closed it neatly.

It's just that after entering the room, he collapsed on the bed weakly. There is a message from Jiang Guopan on the phone, as well as a message from Jiang's mother, and even Jiang Yifan also left a WeChat message: [Ah Lu doesn't hate you so much now, really won't come back?] ］

She just glanced at it and tossed her phone aside.

I don't know how long I lay down with my eyes closed, and I gradually remembered the sound of the car driving away downstairs, and Qu Heyang didn't leave until this time.

Jiang Huifan remembered the day Qu Du was taken away, when he was forcibly dragged into the car, he turned his head and stared at her seriously for a long time, and then smiled at her with the corners of his mouth bent.

He said that there was always a way for him to leave, and he was confident that he would be able to do it without fail.

also said that she was there, but she was just a drag on him.

Jiang Huifan felt some truth at first, but now that he thinks about it, it was just a lie he casually told so that she could leave with peace of mind. How can anything be foolproof in the face of danger?

In just a few months, she actually had a feeling that things were wrong.

Some things, once they pass, become a thorn in the bottom of the heart, and just thinking about it, the more they stick to the heart. Even the original guilt turned into a different emotion.

For some people, it has become a taboo.

Jiang Huifan thought that at the age of twenty-three, she finally had another thing that she had to learn - to give up.

……

This New Year, Jiang Huifan did not go back once. Jiang Guopan finally couldn't stand it anymore and took the initiative to come to the door to find her.

She also happily received him and showed off one of her best cooking skills.

"I'll go back and show your mother a hand when I have time." Jiang Guo climbed.

Jiang Huifan's smile was a little lighter, but he still smiled: "Let her come over, I won't go back." ”

"That's home, it's impossible not to go back for the rest of your life, right?" He said.

Jiang Huifan didn't know how to speak.

It's not that she doesn't want to go back, it's just that she has a shadow over the place called "home". As soon as I went back, I had nightmares. In the dream, there were all kinds of pictures of Qudu's tragic death, and those pictures broke her heart and made her breathless.

Go back once, depress once, and hurt your body.

So it's better not to go back.

Jiang Huifan's attending physician told her that this is called a psychological disorder.

Jiang Guopan saw that although she was laughing all the time, she was like a dummy, and she couldn't tell what her emotions were, so she just sighed heavily and said, "I knew that you would be like this, and my body has deteriorated, so it is better not to drive him away at the beginning." ”

After hearing this, she smiled.

But my heart hurts.

I knew it early.

She begged them so seriously at the beginning, don't lock her up, but she only got them such a breezy sentence.

I knew it early.

Jiang Huifan thought that they would not understand her entanglement, and for them, these things would be over and insignificant. But who can understand that she always regrets it, if only she had escaped earlier, as long as it was earlier, would it have ended differently? She had seen him earlier, and might have been able to take him away.

Her eyes were downcast, her expression unchanged.

Only half an hour later, he said softly, "Dad, I have to go to the hospital." Why don't you go back first? ”

Jiang Guopan looked at her and didn't speak.

When he left, he was also unknown.

At the same time, Jiang's mother chatted with a card friend outside: "Our little Jiang Na, who has been obedient for more than 20 years, didn't expect that at this age, he actually began to rebel." ”

There are also humanitarians: "Isn't that someone spoiled?" Xiao Jiang is making trouble, doesn't the Qu family appear around every day? Who would have thought that the little couple, who had been so clear at the beginning, would be about to get together again at this time. ”

Jiang's mother was happy in her heart, and said: "I don't participate in the affairs of other people's young people." ”

It's just that in action, every time she sees Qu Heyang, she talks like she has seen her own son, and she is calling and chatting, as if she wants others to know how good Qu Heyang is to her.

And Qu Heyang has always fulfilled her wishes, never said a word, and served diligently.

……

At the end of the weekend, as soon as Qu Heyang's meeting ended, he almost immediately stood up from his position and walked outside.

It just so happened that Su Yanli was with him, looked at his somewhat hurried actions, raised his eyebrows and said, "Go see Jiang Huifan?" ”

Qu Heyang didn't deny it, just glanced at the time.

At this point, Jiang Huifan has not gotten off work yet, and he can more or less see it. If you're lucky, you can say a couple of words.

Su Yanli said: "You don't know that she went out with my wife?" ”

Qu Heyang paused, he didn't know anything, and only said, "Your wife doesn't need to take the child?" ”

"In two days, I can take care of it." Su Yanli is like a good father, "My child is also sticky to me, and it is not a big deal for her to leave." What's more, it's tiring to take care of the child every day, and it's a good thing for her to go out for a walk. ”

Qu Heyang sneered: "I've never seen you so afraid of your wife." ”

"It's better than not having a wife, isn't it?" Su Yanli sarcastically aroused people, and he was not merciful.

What's more, in the matter of Jiang Huifan and Qu Du, he felt that what he did was not very moral, and others did not know, but how many years he had worked with him, he knew that he definitely did something in it.

Su Yanli even felt that if Jiang Huifan knew, Qu Heyang might not have a chance at all.

His words made Qu Heyang feel a thorn in his heart.

In addition, everyone knows Jiang Huifan's whereabouts, only he knows nothing.

Qu Heyang took a deep breath and said, "Go out for a drink?" ”

"No, I have to go back and take the kids." After a man really has a family, he can no longer be a good brother who said he could go out when he went out.

Qu Heyang said "um", and when he got off work, he also walked aimlessly.

As usual, he drove to Jiang Huifan's downstairs. The difference is that he didn't have to go upstairs today.

Qu Heyang didn't stay long, he left, he went to the bar, but the bar seemed to be doing against him, the music was sad, the theme was sad.

INTERVIEWER What is the most regrettable thing in your life?

A woman who came up to talk to him asked him about the subject.

Qu Heyang looked like a gentleman and silently rejected her.

The woman left in disappointment.

But he has regrets. That is, how did he create those people in his heart in the first place, for the sake of others, he was in pain, and the whole person changed.

What he endured was that Jiang Huifan's eyes were full of Qudu. He watched and saw that her heart was filled with others.

When Qu Heyang left, his eyes were a little cold.

There are some things that patience alone may not be useful, and he has to do it.

When Qu Heyang got into the car, he picked up his mobile phone and contacted Jiang Yifan.

……

Jiang Huifan was over there, but he was also soaking in the hot spring with Fu Qing.

"Your words have been getting less and less lately, Xiao Jiang, if you continue like this, I won't know you anymore." Fu Qing also looked at her with some concern.

Jiang Huifan didn't realize it, only surprised: "If you don't say a few words, you won't recognize me?" It's a real camaraderie. ”

Fu Qing also looked at her with some complexity: "It doesn't matter if you talk less, your temperament has changed." ”

casually changed his words: "It's okay, it's okay, maybe you've really grown." ”

Jiang Huifan was silent.

She had something on her mind, because Fu Qing also had a holiday with Qu Du, and she had no way to share it with her good friend, saying that she fell in love with someone who left a shadow in her heart.

But how could Fu Qing not understand her?

She paused and said, "Xiao Jiang, what do you think sisters are?" ”

Fu Qing also looked at her and said firmly: "No matter who you hide in your heart or what kind of person you like, you will support you in the end, and after you are injured, you will be willing to give you a hug." ”

Jiang Huifan's eyes were slightly red, she knew herself too well.

"What's more, Qu Du arrested me at the beginning because I had a cheap mouth, and I had to mention things that were forbidden by others." Fu Qing also said, "When I think about it now, I feel that I owe it." ”

Jiang Huifan couldn't help but lean over and hug her.

When the two of them left and returned to the hotel, Fu Qing was also married, which was not the same as when the two of them were single, so she made a video call to the baby.

Jiang Huifan planned to go out alone to buy some drinks.

That is, when she walked into the hall, she suddenly saw a familiar figure, and next to him stood a man in a coat. Skinny and tall, standing out from the crowd.

If it weren't for Qu Du not being so thin and thin, she would almost think it was him.

Jiang Huifan's heart was beating fast, and he was afraid that Wei Rong would not be able to hear it, so his voice was a few degrees louder: "Wei Rong." ”

The man glanced back at her, then at the man next to him, who gestured to him slightly, wrapped his coat tightly and left.

Jiang Huifan's eyes were only on Wei Rong, and he didn't care about the person who left, and the latter also walked over to her, "Come here to play?" ”

"Hmm." She was a little hesitant, not daring to ask for the news that was on her lips, for fear that the result would disappoint her, so she hesitated again and again, and her thirst for knowledge overcame her fear. She began, "Any news of him?" ”

Wei Rong said: "Miss Jiang, although I don't want to tell you that, I can't lie to you, no." But we haven't given up yet, so don't worry too much. ”

Again, this is the result.

Jiang Huifan almost felt that he was comforting her: "I have a good psychological capacity, in case I ......, you tell me, it's nothing." ”

Wei Rong sighed and said, "To tell you the truth, in fact, the most they are threatening him to compromise and get hurt a little bit." If you really want to attack him, they don't dare. The second master has a lot of evidence in his hands, but he also has him, and the checks and balances on both sides are safe. On the one hand, if it is over, then can't you boldly hand over the evidence? ”

Jiang Huifan pursed her lips.

Wei Rong said: "I can only tell you that people are still alive, when they will be found, not necessarily." Maybe he was injured and lost his memory, and he was exiled to some remote corner to get married and have children. ”

Jiang Huifan's eyes widened and he bit his lip, no matter how he looked at it, he was sad.

Wei Rong's mobile phone rang, and there was a message inside, and the person who sent the message seemed impatient: [Enough. ］

He put away his phone and said, "Miss Jiang, there is still something to do, so I'll leave first." ”

Jiang Huifan hurriedly said: "If you find him, tell me." ”

Wei Rong smiled faintly, and when he walked back to the stairs, the man who originally came first glanced at him without being salty.

Wei Rong said: "The meeting is important, let's go first." ”
