Shen Tianze had a little headache, if he had to choose between the two, he would definitely choose Fang Ya, but he had already promised Lu Tingshen. Now that this kind of thing happened, it was simply embarrassing him, and he gave a promise when he was really guilty.

"Whoever started this incident, but I promised you and didn't do what I was supposed to do, that's my problem." He stood up and stretched out his hand towards Lu Tingshen, "If you have any questions next time, you can use me, although you don't have to be polite." Treat it as if I owe you a favor. ”

It was Lu Tingshen who helped himself and Fang Ya, but he couldn't help him because of various things, which was really ashamed.

Compared with his worries, Lu Tingshen was very calm.

"As long as you protect the people around you from falling into their hands, some things won't happen." He also stretched out his hand to shake hands with Shen Tianze, but quickly let go.

"I hope that after this incident passes, you can pay more attention to Fang Ya."

As he spoke, he looked around and asked, "Take out the courier you received and show it to me, since you have decided not to be involved in this matter anymore, then some things should not remain here." ”

Shen Tianze nodded, "Those things are upstairs, I'll take them down for you now." ”

Soon, he took a large cardboard box and put it in the open space in front of the sofa.

"Fang Ya was frightened when she saw the bloody bones inside, and after that, I put them all in a big box. If you want to open it up, you can look at it, but the contents can be overwhelming. ”

I can't say I'm afraid of what is in it, it's just that it makes people feel a little disgusting.

Fortunately, Lu Tingshen didn't really have the idea of opening it here, but just asked him to help move it to the trunk of the car.

The two stood in front of the car, with snowflakes falling behind them.

Lu Tingshen patted him on the shoulder, "We'll talk about other things after Fang Ya's affairs are dealt with, her affairs are the most important at the moment." ”

Shen Tianze smiled weakly and bitterly, "I'll contact the people over there for a while, and I'll tell you if there's any news." Good luck too. ”

The two of them each walked in opposite directions, one getting into the car and the other going home.

No one knows what will happen next, and maybe they will change their original direction, but the future is beautiful in the unknown, and everything will be told in time.

……

Seeing that the year is coming to an end, the story of this period seems to disappear in the blink of an eye, as if nothing has happened, and if this door is closed, everything will return to its usual state.

But this is only fake, only what really happened is the real thing.

Ji Yan began to be busy with the things after returning to work, as long as she was ready to do so, she could investigate the design competition again, and it was impossible for her to give up when everything was not investigated.

But Lu's father and Lu's mother also began to get busy, and they couldn't see anyone all day long, and the Lu family's mansion was mostly only her and Lian's mother.

Another afternoon, Lian's mother's hands were almost fine under the dual protection of cultivation and medicine, so she specially made a sugar cake for Ji Yan that she often made when she was a child and sent it to her room.

She still buried her head in front of the desk as usual, and even her mother couldn't help but feel a little distressed when she was a child who grew up.

"Second Miss, you don't have to worry about food and clothing now, and you don't need to work as hard as before. There is someone standing next to you who can shelter you, and I believe that he will not become the second Ji Zhenxiong. ”

In fact, many people in the Ji family can see that their family is tired, but there are very few people who really dare to say it, and most of them say it behind their backs.

So even Ji Yan didn't expect Lian's mother to say this, and chuckled helplessly.

"I don't feel like I'm trying so hard because I'm just doing what a lot of people do." She put the cap on her pen and said very sensibly, "Maybe you will feel sorry for me, thinking that I have married into a wealthy family, why do I have to work so hard every day." But most of the people who marry into wealthy families have the support of their mother's family behind them, and as long as their mother's family does not fall, they can always be carefree, but I can't. ”

"I just have to keep doing my best, even if I don't have a backer. Relying on others all the time will not make any progress, and only yourself will not betray yourself. ”

If her ability is not enough, there is no need to sit in this position, even if Lu Tingshen's original intention is just to dispel those rumors for him, but this is far from enough.

Lian's mother always felt that she had become different from before, and she didn't know whether this change was a good thing or a bad thing, so she could only smile and say, "Second Miss, it's a good thing that you work hard, no one will let you give up on yourself." But when it's time to rest, you still have to rest, don't get tired. ”

As she spoke, she handed over the sugar cake that had been set aside.

Ji Yan also just wanted to take a break, so he stood up and moved his muscles and bones, took the fork above and forked a piece and put it in his mouth, and said "hmm" in surprise, his eyes were round like a little hamster.

"If I'm not mistaken, even my mom used to make this for me to eat. I didn't expect to eat it again after many years. She covered her mouth and smiled, and said, "You can eat together, this is not the Ji family, there are not so many rules and regulations, you can do whatever you want." ”

After a pause, the smile on Ji Yan's face suddenly retracted, and he put his hands crossed on the table.

"I was going to take you to Grandma when the chilblains on your hands were all healed, otherwise she would have been very uncomfortable seeing the wounds on her hands. And...... Her health is getting worse and worse, and if there is an extra familiar person to take care of her, it may be able to play a good role. Now that you can cook, you must be much better, right? ”

Lian Ma nodded, "It will probably be completely better if you apply the ointment for a few more days, if you don't touch the cold water in the past few days." As she spoke, she suddenly thought of something very important, and hurriedly spoke, "I just thought of a sentence that the old lady said to me a long time ago, maybe it is related to the second lady. ”

Ji Yan was stunned for a moment, stretched out his hand and pointed to his nose, "Something to do with me?" ”

What is it about herself that she doesn't know yet?

After seeing her suspicions, Lian's mother nodded very affirmatively, "But the hero of that sentence is not the second lady, but ...... Your mother. She thought back to what the old lady said before, but too much time had passed to repeat it as it was, and she could only say a rough idea, "She seems to know what your mother died for, and how the Ji family survived that target." The Ji family was not as big as it is now at the beginning, it could only be regarded as a small workshop, and it could not be compared with the Lu Group at all. ”

"But a lot of things happened later, if I'm not mistaken, the second miss's mother happened to be brought to the Ji family to live permanently during the time of the company's accident, and she usually came to live a few times occasionally. The old lady talked to your mother for an afternoon, and the next day the company's affairs were miraculously resolved, and then you know what happened. ”

Ji Yan was stunned and picked up what she didn't finish, "Then, my mother said that she would let me stay in a place where I could give me more room to play, and then left." It didn't take long for him to die in a rented small house, and he was found out by his neighbors because of the rancid smell......"

Lian's mother nodded, "I don't know if there is a connection between these things, so I can only give the second miss as a reference." ”

She happened to take leave that day to go home to see her relatives, and returned to Ji's house earlier than the original time, and as soon as she returned to put things away, she was ready to serve the old lady, who knew that she would find these.

"I haven't said any of these things, in fact, I wanted to tell Second Miss a long time ago, but you were too young at the time to support the possibility that you knew these things without being impulsive."

Ji Yan suddenly felt that many things were actually a joke, and said with a smile, "Mother Lian, I thank you for being willing to tell me this from my grandmother." In fact, I have always had a thought, is my birth right or wrong? ”

Everyone has his own reason for living in this world, but Ji Yan doesn't know what his reason is.

She has lived in a fog all her life, and she has lived with her mother in a village far away from the city since she was a child, until she was brought to the Ji family at the age of seven or eight, and was raised in the Ji family in a daze, and successfully provoked the disapproval of many people.

The mother is dead, the father is not in pain, the stepmother is not loved, and the sister is still fierce.

Although it was a long, long time later to learn that his background may not be so simple. Ji Zhenxiong, whom she always thought, was not her biological father at all, and even he himself was actually very likely to know all this, and he finally had a reason not to be loved since he was a child.

Countless thoughts crossed my mind, and finally they all drifted away from zero.

She raised her eyebrows slightly, "Everyone has a family, even those orphans in the orphanage, and everyone around them who is good to them is a family member." I am the only one who is a lonely wandering soul in the world, I can't see the way forward, there is a fog shrouded there, and I don't know what kind of things will happen to me. ”

Ji Yan rarely fell into confusion.

Lian Ma was in a hurry, but she didn't know how to deal with this, so she kept pacing around the room.

"Second Miss, I think you are the best person in this world. If you don't dislike me, I can be your family. ”

At this juncture, she didn't have time to pay attention to why Ji Yan said that she was a wandering spirit without a family, obviously she still had a grandmother who had been thinking about her recent photos since she was a child.

But the confusion is only temporary, and only constant calmness can make her go to a longer road.

Ji Yan came back to his senses after only a while, as if he was casually fiddling with the pen in his hand, "Of course not." Actually, I'm curious to know if what you just said is not much different from what you heard in the early years. ”

She put the pen down, her eyes inquiring, "Because I think what you just said seems to be implying to me that it was Grandma who took everything from my mother and caused her death." ”
