When Gu Shaoze hesitated, Ji Xincheng came to a conclusion:

"If it's as vicious as Ji Xinran, then it's still only one."

Gu Shaoze couldn't bear it because of the fear she had just revealed, but when she saw that she thought of Ji Xinran, and knew that Ji Xinran was Ji Xincheng's nightmare, she began to blame herself.

Stretched out his right hand to hold her, and apologized repeatedly, "I'm sorry wife, I shouldn't say whatever I want." ”

How could he have been so cautious, Ji Xincheng was moved, where was he willing to worry about him, patted his hand and asked him to put it back, "Drive well, you are taking me and the baby now, and you must pay attention to traffic safety at all times." ”

"Yes!" Gu Shaoze smiled, bright and vibrant, and said casually, "Why don't we go and see my father-in-law now?" It just so happens that I am walking in this direction, and after a while the weather is cold, you probably don't like to go out. ”

Ji Xincheng stared at Gu Shaoze rarely, this man's mind is becoming more and more delicate, how could he know that he was so concerned about such things before.

"Okay, let's go for a trip."

Ji Xincheng didn't want to go back to that home, at the moment when she knew that Ji Xinran wanted to suffocate Song Qi with her own hands, she felt sorry for that home, and the painful memories that her father and Ji Xinran brought to her in the past, as if she could smell a trace of rot, which made her feel frightened and heartfelt.

If disgust, pain, and fear can be combined in one person, no matter who or what, no one will want to touch it, right?

What's more, Ji Xincheng, who came out of the struggle during that time, sometimes even feels afraid, if she hadn't been soberly aware that her father and Ji Xinran didn't like her, and deliberately kept a distance from them, if she didn't choose to be independent with too much self-esteem, but chose to reconcile with them, then is it possible that the current Ji Xincheng has already become Ji Xinran's kind of person?

Every time I think about this, I also feel cold on the soles of my feet in the blue sky and daytime.

So since she knew that she was pregnant and knew that she had to tell Ji Rong the news, she had been feeling like a thorn in her heart, like a barrier that was difficult to cross, and she was anxious and anxious in the process of preparation.

But fortunately, starting in such a way today saved Ji Xincheng from a lot of entanglements.

She thought it was just Gu Shaoze's temporary idea, but she didn't think that when she arrived at the Ji family's villa and parked the car, he took out a lot of things from the trunk that she hadn't seen at all.

Finally, when he was about to ring the doorbell, Ji Xincheng stood aside and asked solemnly: "Take me to eat delicious food and accompany me shopping, it's all planned, right?" And then bring me here? ”

Gu Shaoze couldn't help but laugh, "What good will it do me if I brought you here?" ”

"Then you dare to say that these gifts are always in the trunk?"

"Don't dare," Gu Shaoze carried things in both hands, serious, "Because wife, you have already seen these seafoods, which were only flown back from Japan this morning, I can't be blind to you." ”

He can still joke!

It's not good to stand at the door, Ji Xincheng endured it, but no one came to open the door for a long time, the housekeeper was never so slow, could something have happened? Thinking about it, she reached out and rang the doorbell a few more times.

While warning Gu Shaoze, "You can go back and explain to me in a while!" ”

"Okay, wife!" He let her handle it.

"Why hasn't anyone come for so long, aren't you at home?" Ji Xincheng muttered, pressed the doorbell again, and planned to call Ji Rong.

Before the phone was dialed, the iron door in front of him suddenly opened, and it was Ji Rong who came to open the door.

Ji Xincheng and Gu Shaoze glanced at each other, both of them felt that something was wrong, but Ji Rong was very enthusiastic, and when he saw Gu Shaoze's hands full of things still clipped under his armpits, he hurriedly took a hand, "Ouch, come back when you come back, what are you doing when you buy so many things, there is no shortage at home!" ”

Gu Shaoze answered, "It's just some food, and my father-in-law tastes it, it's nothing." ”

He's generous, and these can cost a lot of money! Ji Xincheng slandered, followed the two men in a room, and for a while he couldn't understand why Gu Shaoze wanted to please Ji Rong so much.

The two entered the room, and Ji Rong personally handed them off their shoes.

Ji Xincheng was surprised, "What about the others? ”

"Oh, something happened to the housekeeper's son's family, and he and Sister-in-law Li took a two-week leave and didn't come back, and the nanny Xiao Zhou went to the vegetable market."

This makes sense, the house is a bit messy, and no one has opened the door for a long time.

Ji Xincheng led Gu Shaoze to put a bunch of gifts in the corner of the living room, and then saw two cups on the coffee table, one was Ji Rong's, and the other was obviously a visitor's.

The one who can get him to hand over the cup himself......

"Dad, is there anyone else in the family?"

"No, no, Xiao Zhou went to the vegetable market!"

Ji Rong followed Ji Xincheng's gaze and landed on the two cups on the coffee table, and leaned over to clean them up in the next second, "Look at this living room, my cup from yesterday is still here!" This Xiao Zhou, it's time to talk about her ......"

As he spoke, he handed the two cups into the kitchen.

Gu Shaoze took out his empty hand, and knew that Ji Xincheng guessed without asking, he looked at her for a long time, didn't speak, wiped his hands and asked her to sit down and rest, "Drink water?" I'm going to pour. ”

Ji Xincheng took a deep breath and cheered up, "Are you anti-customer-oriented?" ”

Gu Shaoze was helpless, and laughed out loud, "Wife, you are a ...... like a soldier" Seeing Ji Rong approaching from the side, Gu Shaoze didn't say anything further.

Ji Rong poured a glass of water for the two, and when he handed it over, he didn't dare to look at Ji Xincheng's evasive eyes, which made Ji Xincheng's heart ache.

Ji Rong wanted to cover up the panicked look, there was no need for Ji Xincheng to explore more, maybe because he hadn't seen him for a long time, it seemed that there were more gray hairs on his sideburns, and he forgot to react in a trance.

Gu Shaoze said: "Thank you, father-in-law!" ”

Ji Xincheng came back to his senses after realizing it, held the water cup in his hand, and rushed out without thinking, "Is Ji Xinran at home?" ”

Ji Rong shook his hand and put the water cup back on the coffee table, and laughed dryly, "It's a little hot, you guys be careful." Then he looked at Ji Xincheng and said, "If you don't talk about it, I have to forget about this dead girl, there has been no news for so long, and I don't know if I died in which corner!" ”

Ji Xincheng's eyes fell calmly on the cup in his hand, he couldn't even call it warm water, of course it couldn't be hot.

Seeing Ji Rong like this, Ji Xincheng was already very sure in his heart: Ji Xinran is in this house at this moment.

But she didn't have a seizure right away, and even nodded to Ji Rong, "There is no news from the police yet, she probably found a place to hide." ”

Ji Rong sighed helplessly, secretly looked at Ji Xincheng's expression, and saw that she seemed to believe it, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief, so he had the heart to talk to his son-in-law.

Listening to Ji Rong and Gu Shaoze's answers, Ji Xincheng kept his head down silently, and didn't get up and go upstairs until he drank more than half of a glass of water.

Seeing her go upstairs, Ji Rong also hurriedly got up from the sofa, "Xin Cheng, do you want to go upstairs?" ”

"yes, I'll go up and get something."

"Whatever you want, I'll help you go."

"Dad, I forgot where I put it, I went up and looked for it myself, it seems to be in Xinran's room."

"Wait, wait!" Ji Rong passed between the sofa and the coffee table in a panic, walked to Ji Xincheng, who had stepped on two steps, raised his head and begged him, "Don't go up!" ”

Ji Xincheng's face was calm, he looked at his father's familiar and unfamiliar face for a while, and said coldly, "Because Ji Xinran was in her room, you didn't let me go up, didn't you?" ”

"I ,......"

Ji Rong's speechless appearance in pain has explained everything.

Ji Xincheng lifted the hem of her skirt and planned to continue upstairs, but when she heard Ji Rong go out, she shouted at Ji Xincheng, "Yes, she is going home, so what?" ”

The old father stared at her with red eyes, as if he had been ten years old.

Ji Xincheng's chest was extremely suffocated, but she couldn't care about it, and retreated her steps up the stairs again, looking still calm, "How long has it been?" ”

“……”

"Don't you say yes? Then I'll call the police......"

Ji Xincheng said and took the mobile phone from the bag, Ji Rong wanted to grab it, Gu Shaoze quickly stepped up the steps to protect her, the mobile phone fell into Gu Shaoze's hand, he always watched the father and daughter arguing, and he didn't mean to help anyone at the moment, so he returned the mobile phone to Ji Xincheng, "Be careful not to fall." He said to Ji Rong again: "Father-in-law, attempted murder and surrender can get a light sentence, and it is not wise to shield her." ”

"It's been more than ten days, and she's been back for more than ten days." Ji Rong was depressed and looked old.

Of course, he knew what it was wise to do, but in the end, there was still a trace of luck, and he always felt that his daughter would not be so bad, and people's selfishness has always been like this.

"Xincheng, don't make this call, count Dad begging you, spare Xinran, okay?"

I don't know how many times this scene has been staged in Ji Xincheng's heart, treating his father's favoritism, Ji Xincheng's iron heart in front of family affection is already familiar, "Spare her?" Do I have this right? Even if I had, why should I? Why could she almost kill three of us, and just because we got away with it, she could act as if nothing had happened? Why, Dad? You come and tell me! ”

Tears welled up in her eyes, but she bit her lip to keep it from falling.

Although Gu Shaoze was distressed, he was only standing at the next step of her, as long as she was protected from accidents, these things that should be faced could only be faced by herself.

Ji Rong couldn't answer Ji Xincheng's question, or he could, but he didn't want to.

In the next second, only to hear the sound of 'plop', Ji Rong knelt on the wooden steps at the staircase, the sound was extremely heavy, kneeling his daughter, and then cried bitterly, "This is your only sister, dad beg, please!" ”

Ji Xincheng couldn't bear it anymore, but he couldn't stand the father who gave birth to her and raised her to kneel like this, and instantly panicked and hid beside Gu Shaoze, tears gushed out like a burst, and he couldn't help himself.

Why did she have to bear all this, when she was very young, she even thought about it, if she was not the daughter of the Ji family, would it be a little better, and later when she grew up, she knew that even if Ji Rong didn't give her anything, she just gave her material support to keep her fed, clothed and go to a good school, which is already something that many people can't get in their lifetime, and it was after deliberately making that comparison that she forgave the father who favored Ji Xincheng so much that there was no reason to talk about it.

Later, when she came into contact with psychology, some theories told her that for so many years, most of the time the role of her father was the father she imagined in her heart, not the living father who knelt in front of her and cried bitterly at the moment in the real world.

When she is emotional, she will persuade herself that life is just a few decades, since he is such a person, don't force him too much, but sometimes think rationally, she really shouldn't make the relationship between each other so embarrassing because of the blood relationship of family affection, she is obviously difficult to suffocate, but she also has to warn herself: You are a daughter, you are a sister, how should you ......

And every time the result always disappoints her more, her patience and self-beautification are exchanged for more cynicism and justification most of the time.

In the past, it was just a matter of morality, she could turn a blind eye, but now, Ji Xinran is an attempted murder, not as simple as a slap in the face!

"Dad," Ji Xincheng calmed down after some inner struggle, and had already left the staircase, and didn't look at Ji Rong, who was still kneeling there behind him, "This is the last time, the last time I will compromise with you because of the love between father and daughter, there will be no next time." I don't have to call to denounce Ji Xinran today, but if Ji Xinran insists on not turning herself in and is finally arrested, I won't try to save her. You remembered. ”

Ji Rong's rickety figure gradually stopped trembling, he still covered his face, he had already lost all his self-esteem, and said in a loud voice, "Definitely, I will definitely not be arrested, as long as you don't say it!" ”

Ji Xincheng tightly held the tissue wet with tears in her palm, and took one last look at the home she had relied on to survive since she was a child, it was so empty and terrible, she finally left there with Gu Shaoze.

The two people who got into the car, when they compared, their mood can be called a change in the world.

Gu Shaoze had the heart to comfort her for a few words, he couldn't bear it in the house just now, because he wanted them to solve it between their father and daughter, but this time was different, Ji Xincheng came out of the door, and it was just his wife.

"Drive away, I don't want to park here."

Hearing her say this, Gu Shaoze had no choice but to be silent and drive the car all the way home.

Her depressed mood was visible to the naked eye, and although she no longer shed tears along the way, her eyes were half-swollen.

The first thing she did when she got home, Gu Shaoze settled her on the sofa, and wrung a hot towel for her eyes, and she raised her head instead of reaching out to take it, but wrapped it around his neck, "Hug me for a while." ”

Gu Shaoze had never seen Ji Xincheng so helpless, as if she had only realized that she had been abandoned by the world at this moment.

"And me and the baby, we will always be with you." He pressed his sideburns against her sideburns and spoke softly.
