"You say it again?"

Xu An stood up immediately after hearing Zhou Yunxi's words, and even the teacup in his hand was directly knocked over and spilled on the ground. She looked panicked, her big eyes with some anxiety and some hope.

Such an appearance made Zhou Yunxi stunned for a moment, and he couldn't react for a while.

"His name is Promise." Although I don't know why Xu An reacted like this, Zhou Yunxi still answered seriously, as for the rest, Zhou Yunxi didn't think much about it, "Miss Xu, what's wrong with you?" ”

"Promise?"

Xu An didn't answer Zhou Yunxi's words, but only seemed to mumble and asked again. Seeing Zhou Yunxi nodding seriously, tears suddenly slipped from his eyes.

"Is he alright?" Xu An realized his gaffe and hurriedly reached out to wipe his tears with his sleeve, and then walked quickly to Zhou Yunxi's bed and squatted, looking at Zhou Yunxi's eyes, "Has he suffered?" Is it really okay? ”

"I was taken away a few days ago, and when I came back, my back was full of scars." Zhou Yunxi also noticed that Xu An's reaction was not quite right at this time, but seeing Xu An's state, it was obviously not the time to ask about things, "When I was taken out of the cell, he was already much better." ”

"I didn't eat any rancid food, but my clothes and hair were a little messy, and the injuries on my back were also wiped with medicine." Saying that, Zhou Yunxi paused, "My ten fingers can be better than the injuries in other places, and it is also thanks to the ointment he rubbed on me." ”

"It's okay, it's okay......"

After Xu An heard Zhou Yunxi's words, he sat on the ground as if he had been drained of strength, covering his face with his hands, and the sound of sniffing sounded from time to time.

At this time, Zhou Yunxi only looked at Xu An silently, and guessed the relationship between Xu Yu and her in his heart. Also, they all have the surname 'Xu', and Xu An has such a big reaction after hearing his name, even if they are not relatives, they should be acquaintances.

Of course, because of the names of the two, Zhou Yunxi still prefers the speculation that he and Xu An are relatives.

"Miss Xu, don't cry." Zhou Yunxi will not comfort people, but at this time, Xu An cried so much that Zhou Yunxi had to be a little overwhelmed, "Promise is fine, he can already move when I leave, and the injury is also scabbed——"

"Miss Zhou, what did he tell you?"

Xu An naturally listened to Zhou Yunxi's words, and after her mood stabilized a little, she looked up at Zhou Yunxi. At this time, her face was covered with tears, and there were still some tears on her eyelashes.

"He said he had been locked up for years, the people who put him in...... wants him to lie down, as long as Brother Xu agrees, he can prevent him from living in prison. Zhou Yunxi said for a moment, and saw that Xu An had no other emotions on his face before continuing, "This time the injury on his back is also because he rejected that person again." ”

"Does the girl know who that person is?"

Xu An took a breath, his voice a little hoarse.

"I learned from another prisoner in the prison that the token on the person who held Brother Xu had the word 'jade' on his body." Zhou Yunxi said, "I thought about it for a long time and I didn't think who that person was, I don't know if Miss Xu has a clue?" ”

"Jade?"

Hearing Zhou Yunxi's words, Xu An's face also sank slightly.

The person surnamed 'Jade' in Jingli, she really hasn't heard of it. However, it has something to do with 'jade', but Xu Anxin has some guesses. Of course, she can't be sure yet.

"Miss Zhou, do you know why I'm like this?"

Xu An didn't mean to continue that topic with Zhou Yunxi, she had already gotten the news she wanted to know, and Zhou Yunxi didn't know anything else at a glance.

If she knew, she wouldn't just talk about the token. Nine-zero look

"Brother Xu and the girl are old acquaintances?"

Zhou Yunxi wanted to ask, but at this time, Xu An opened his own mouth, which was naturally better.

"He's my brother."

Xu An's voice was very soft, his eyes were a little empty, as if he had thought of something, and the expression on his face became much softer than before.

"Brother?" Zhou Yunxi was a little surprised when she heard this, as far as she knew, although the Xu family was not very powerful in the capital, it was also a well-known official in the end.

Just now Xu An said that she was the daughter of the Xu family, and at this time she said that Xu Promise was her brother, so Xu Promise Mo was not the eldest son of the Xu family? If so, how can you be locked up in prison for so many years?

After entering Beijing, Zhou Yunxi asked himself if he had never heard Qin Fengyi mention the matter of the Xu family's sister-in-law!

"Brother-in-law." Xu An's voice was very soft, and his eyes were a little sad, "When he disappeared, I was only eight years old. His father looked for him for a long time, but he found nothing, how did he know that he had been in the capital all along. ”

Xu An said that there was more hatred on her face, and it could be seen that if she knew who it was, she would definitely pick that person's skin.

Of course, the premise is that Xu An has this ability.

"I never thought that Brother Xu would be a member of the Xu family." Zhou Yunxi muttered, obviously this incident had a big impact on him, "In that case, how could that person have such courage?" Can you do it like this, could it be done by an acquaintance? ”

"Acquaintances?" Xu An only shook his head slightly when he heard Zhou Yunxi's words, "My brother is used to being alone, there are very few people who can talk to him in one place, and there are even fewer acquaintances. ”

"What's more, when my brother disappeared, those acquaintances of his ......" Xu An said, "Miss Zhou, do you know why the Xu family is now in the same vein as a clear stream, and does not stand in line?" ”

"Why?"

Zhou Yunxi adhered to the principle of asking if he didn't know, and when he heard Xu An speak, he asked directly. Fortunately, Xu An was about to say it, so it didn't matter what Zhou Yunxi's reaction was.

"When my brother disappeared, the two or three people who were friends with him, one left Beijing and returned some time ago, and the rest died."

"I don't know who did it, so I don't have any clue." Xu An pulled the corners of his mouth as he spoke, revealing an ugly smile, "The sons who died are also the sons of famous families in Beijing, and they are all people who have high hopes in the family. ”

Hearing this, Zhou Yunxi also understood the reason.

Because those sons are gone, and the murderer can't be found, this resentment naturally spreads to the Xu family. In this way, the Xu family was directly isolated by several families.

In the long run, the Xu family can't find an 'alliance', in order to ensure that the family does not decline, there is only one way to go.

"Miss Zhou, is my brother really fine?"

Xu An was silent for a long time and then asked again, which made Zhou Yunxi feel a little distressed.

"It's fine."

Zhou Yunxi didn't think that the promise would be the Xu family, but knowing it at this time, it was inevitable that he would have some indigestion, but he only felt that he was in a fog and a little chaotic.

But Xu An's face was serious, and he couldn't tolerate Zhou Yunxi's disbelief.
