Although the Leng family can be regarded as a wealthy family, it can still only be regarded as a second-rate family in this society, and there is also the Lu family. The Zhao family and the Shen family can be said to be the top families in the first-class. Everyone doesn't talk about class on the surface, and most of them are clear in their hearts. Moreover, now the Leng family is in power, it is Leng Xuan's parents, who cannot be said to be incompetent, but they are definitely mediocre, so that they urgently need to be maintained through marriage.

And the object of marriage is naturally Lu Qi'er, the eldest daughter of the Lu family, and the two can be said to be a good match at the beginning.

However, the variable is in this Leng Xuan. Leng Xuan's business talent, looking at this generation of high-ranking young people can be regarded as outstanding, he founded his own entertainment company at the age of 18, called Xingchen, and is now a leading enterprise in the industry, and he himself is quite favored by Grandpa Zhao.

Zhao Yun is a well-known love talent, the most unsightly thing is those who oppress people, at that time, Leng Xuan's amazing business war made him quite admired, and in the subsequent contact, he felt that this kid was really a plastic talent. often takes him with him, and it can be said that he is treated as his own children and grandchildren. Of course, there are many young people who are favored by him, such as Shen Chen, who is also from the same family, Bai Haoran from the Bai family, and so on.

In short, under the protection of Zhao Yun, Leng Xuan's growth path can be said to be smooth, and the Leng family is also faintly powerful. Leng Xuan's parents felt that the marriage contract that was set at that time was naturally a little inappropriate, if they wanted to rush into the atmosphere of a first-class family, their son would inevitably marry a first-class eldest lady to pave the way, and after the old man Zhao had a case, the Leng family's current spring breeze can last for a long time.

Anyway, for now, the meal is still eaten amicably. After that, Grandpa Zhao said that he was a little tired and wanted to rest, so he went back to the room alone.

"Miss Xia, shall I take you for a walk in the courtyard?" The servants of the Zhao family cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks on the table, and Zhao Ziling said to Xia Qingyu.

"Them?" Xia Qingyu set his eyes on Leng Xuan and Shen Chen.

"They're just going to do it for themselves." Zhao Ziling raised his hand to greet them and motioned for him to take Miss Xia out first.

"They've been here a lot of times, and there's nothing to eat, drink, or entertain. It's not like you, the first time I come back to my house, I have a lot of things to introduce to you. ”

"yes, okay." Xia Qingyu then got up and followed Zhao Ziling and walked to the stairs in the lobby on the next floor.

"I'll take you to my garden first, this season is a good time to enjoy the flowers...... Zhao Ziling said as he walked, "If nothing else, just that pool of lotus flowers, that is the old man's favorite." Sometimes he is an old man, and he can sit next to him all day by moving a chair, and he is not afraid of the sun. ”

"This piano ......" Listening to Zhao Ziling's introduction, Xia Qingyu's eyes were attracted by a piano in the corner of the hall on the first floor, and he let out a low sigh.

"Huh?" Zhao Ziling obviously caught this sound sharply, and his eyes also looked over, and the footsteps on the Stanway that landed in the corner also stopped, "Miss Xia, do you want to give it a try?" ”

Xia Qingyu shook his head, "No need, I don't actually know how to play the piano." ”

In the childhood of the original owner, it was difficult to even have food and clothing, how could he have the opportunity to learn such an expensive instrument as the piano, but the first time I saw this piano, I felt a little familiar.

It seems to understand that Xia Qingyu was stunned, Zhao Ziling felt from her understanding of her previous information that this might be something she once longed for but could not reach, even if she later became a popular star, she had no chance to sink down and learn such an instrument. It was very gentlemanly and failed to ask.

"Since that's the case, maybe I have the honor to be able to make a fool of myself in front of Miss Xia once?"

Then Zhao Ziling sat down in front of the piano and gently opened the lid.

"Do you have any favorite tracks?"

"Pirates of the Caribbean."

Both of them were stunned. Xia Qingyu didn't really think much about it when he said this, it seemed to be an instinct, and blurted it out. And Zhao Ziling was a little surprised that he would suddenly play such an exciting track.

"Uh, isn't that appropriate?"

"No, I was a little surprised. I thought girls would love to listen to something a little soothing," he straightened his back a little, adjusted his breathing a little, and the notes began to flow from his fingertips.

Xia Qingyu gently leaned against the window next to the piano, feeling the freedom in the music, winding around the wind blowing slowly by the window, with endless pleasure.

Little Pirates –

Who is it?

Then you'll have to wait—

What are you waiting for?

What the hell have I forgotten......

"Smack." It's the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground. As the music ended, they noticed that a girl had come in, and the bag she was carrying had fallen to the ground, and her eyes were a little red.

"Xiao Yue'er, why are you here?" Zhao Ziling stood up and introduced to Xia Qingyu, "This is Bai Xiyue of the Bai family. ”

"Xiao Yue'er, this is Xia Qingyu, grandpa's important guest." He stepped forward to pick up what had fallen on the ground and placed it on the coffee table a few steps away.

"Hello, first time we met, I'm Xia Qingyu." Xia Qingyu took the initiative to say hello, looking at the girl in front of her, thinking about the way she looked at Zhao Ziling just now, she had a little guess in her heart, this girl was in love with him, right?

"Hello...... Bai Xiyue hurriedly wiped her eyes with the back of her hand, and found that it seemed that she should shake hands with the girl in front of her first to maintain basic politeness, and suddenly seemed a little in a hurry.

"I just saw a bamboo forest outside the window, do you mind if I go and see it?"

"No problem, you ......"

"Then I'll go over there and see for myself, I think you seem to have something to do right now?" Xia Qingyu looked at Zhao Ziling, and there was obvious ridicule in his eyes.

Zhao Ziling looked at Bai Xiyue next to him, and his expression was unnatural for a moment. "Uh, yes, sorry."

Xia Qingyu looked at the girl in front of her, her eyebrows were delicate, and she was wearing a light cyan gauze skirt, which was indeed very cute. And looking at the atmosphere between the two of them, the talented and beautiful women are really a good match, and people can't help but want to leave space for these two people.

After all, who wants to be smashed by dog food?

"You/I ......" The remaining two people spoke at the same time, obviously a little confused about the current development.

Xia Qingyu walked all the way to the bamboo forest along the lotus pond pointed by Zhao Ziling just now, it was a good time in midsummer, and the lotus flowers were a little open, if you had to use a poem to describe it, it should be "the lotus flowers are different red". However, the Zhao family's wealth is indeed a bit amazing, after all, not everyone has the financial resources to place a pond of lotus flowers in their backyard, accompanied by a forest of green bamboo.

"Click." There are raindrops gently hitting the surface of the lake, rippling layers of ripples. Then the second drop, the third drop, shattered a pool of tranquility.

Sun rain? Xia Qingyu looked at the sun that was still hanging high and muttered silently. But she didn't plan to just go home, maybe she was a little obsessed and wanted to go to this bamboo forest to have a look.

Where are you? ] is the sound of the system.

[I want to go to the bamboo forest to see it.] Xia Qingyu felt the freshness of the bamboo forest from the pavement, and the ground under her feet was slightly wet and soft, and her mood was unconsciously a little quiet.

[You didn't bring an umbrella? 】

[Well, I want to be alone for a while. 】

Xia Qingyu leaned against a bamboo, and the rain on his clothes was a little cold.

[System, do you think I can really change the past?] 】

【……】

[Actually, I don't have any particularly strong obsessions, but I just have some regrets about the result at that time. I always felt that if I was stronger, maybe my mother wouldn't be ......]

[Where are you?!] The system's voice was a little anxious. He always felt that the motivation of the tasker Xia Qingyu's behavior was not very strong, as if when he first met her, she was in a state of no desire and no desire. She doesn't seem to have particularly strong emotions in her heart, no strong love and hate, and all her actions are out of "should". Even his mother's death only brought her "regrets", and he was afraid that Xia Qingyu would get tired of it one day......

He knew her too well.

[No, I'm fine.] The rain gradually wet Xia Qingyu's clothes, but fortunately this is summer, so the rain-soaked clothes will not look extraordinarily cold.

[I...... I might just want to have a chat. Xia Qingyu raised his hand in front of his eyes, trying to block out some light.

[Actually, I always feel that what I'm waiting for, it's not the residual emotion of the original owner of this world, I've always had this feeling before I crossed over.] But the funny thing is that I don't even know what it is. 】

She felt that her emotions were indeed a little broken at the moment, after all, these things in her heart, those ridiculous feelings, she never wanted to talk to others. And now, she just wants to say it.

[I am often filled with that inexplicable despair, there is no reason, there is no place to go......]

[Then now, do you still feel like this?] The system asked.

[I ......] actually don't know anymore.

[Xia Qingyu? The call for the system is a little distant.

[Are you still there?] I can't hear clearly......

Xia Qingyu didn't expect that she would fall asleep like this, maybe she was too tired during this time, or she was always uneasy to live under the eaves of others, in this clean sun and rain, she actually sat under a bamboo and closed her eyes peacefully.

After a long time, a person appeared from the bamboo forest, standing in front of Xia Qingyu, and the navy blue umbrella in his hand slowly opened, separating the rain from the girl. The wolfhound followed him, shaking off his soaked hair.

When Xia Qingyu woke up, he looked at the twilight sky and the big black umbrella on his head.

"Shen Chen?" There was a little sleepy murmur in her voice, which sounded a little coquettish.

"Hmm."

"I slept for a long time?"

"Hmm."

"That," Xia Qingyu pointed to the navy blue umbrella with some embarrassment.

"Thank you for the umbrella. Actually, you can just wake me up. ”

"Hmm."

"How did you end up here?"

Shen Chen unconsciously looked away, and after a long while, a word popped up: "Dog." ”

Xia Qingyu: ???
