Haojue Villa is built on the halfway of Cangya Mountain in Yuncheng, and the car drives out of the city, gradually leaving the hustle and bustle behind.

Along the way, the two did not talk, only quietly listened to the music in the car.

Tao Sihua glanced at him from time to time out of the corner of his eye, and always felt that he had not seen him for many days, and he had a different appearance from before.

Not an external change, but a change in character.

Seem...... A little more indifferent and gloomy that did not match his temper.

At first, she thought that he had seen through her intentions and gave her a look, but then she gradually realized that it was not aimed at her.

He really couldn't figure it out.

The sun, which seemed to be obscured by heavy dark clouds, was no longer brilliant and warm.

The car arrived at the destination, and the waiter came forward to receive him attentively.

Xia Sheng used to be a frequent visitor here, bringing different girlfriends to patronize here, the waiter is an old employee, he smiled very kindly when he saw him, knowing his preferences, no need to ask, directly led people to the most elegant box on the second floor.

The waiter quickly brewed a pot of tea, and then handed the menu to Tao Sihua.

Tao Sihua only glanced at it twice, then turned his head to look at Xia Sheng.

"I've never been here." The implication is that I don't know what the signature dishes are here.

Xia Sheng didn't even look at the menu, so he opened his mouth and ordered four dishes and one soup.

After the waiter left, Tao Sihua asked with a smile: "It seems that you come often." ”

Xia Sheng didn't speak, just pushed a small plate of pre-dinner snacks on the table in front of her.

"What is this?" Tao Sihuaqi asked.

Xia Sheng said: "Dragon beard candy, you try it." ”

The pastry was white, at first glance it looked like a silkworm cocoon, she used chopsticks to pick one and put it in her mouth, it was so fluffy and fluffy that it melted in the mouth, and there was still a filling inside, which was crushed peanuts and nuts, and sesame seeds and coconut seeds, which was amazing.

Tao Sihua couldn't help but eat another one.

"This place you picked is really good, the environment is good, and the things are good." Tao Sihua was not greedy, and put down his chopsticks after eating two.

Xia Sheng said with a smile: "It's rare for you to ask me to eat, so I naturally have to choose the location carefully." ”

Tao Sihua raised his eyebrows and asked: "It's not that I asked you out, but that Xia Dashao agreed to your face." ”

Xia Sheng smiled, reached out and gently pinched a piece of dragon beard candy, raised his head and threw it into his mouth.

Tao Sihua looked at him and felt that his action was not only handsome, but also a little childish.

"In the past, you always shirked it. Why did you say yes so much this time? ”

Xia Sheng chewed a few times, picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, washing away all the sweetness in his mouth.

"You have something to tell me, I still want to hear it." Xia Sheng sat down, crossed Erlang's legs, held a chopstick in his hand, and gently tapped the rim of the teacup.

Obviously, such a flowing and angry posture is not disgusting, but it makes people feel uninhibited, and every gesture has a chic taste.

Tao Sihua liked Xia Sheng's attitude of talking, she naturally knew that Xia Sheng would not be able to give her any more chances, and would agree to come out for dinner, so naturally he had a reason.

She pretended to be puzzled and asked, "Why do you think I have something to say to you?" ”

Xia Sheng said with a smile: "It doesn't matter if I guess wrong, inviting my sister to dinner and enveloping my sister is also my duty as a prospective brother-in-law." ”

Tao Sihua looked sad without moving.

brought out the "sister" twice in one sentence, and specifically mentioned the "prospective brother-in-law", is it reminding her of anything?

She lowered her eyes and smiled faintly.

"You're not mistaken, I do have something to tell you."

There was a soft knock on the door of the private room, and Tao Sihua paused.

The raw fish is served and the dishes are put on the table one by one.

Xia Sheng said to Tao Sihua: "Let's eat first, eat while it's hot, and talk after eating." ”

Just looking at the appearance, it is a very ordinary four dishes and one soup. Hibiscus chicken slices, sweet and sour tenderloin, shredded pork in Beijing sauce, shredded fish-flavored pork, and yam pork rib soup in the soup can.

Tao Sihua smiled: "Don't you like to eat yams? ”

Xia Sheng said: "I don't drink it, I will order it for you to drink, I heard that this soup is very good for pregnant women, you drink more." ”

Tao Sihua sighed lightly: "You, you are always half-and gentle." ”

Xia Sheng just didn't hear it.

Next, neither of them spoke, and went straight to eating their own.

There is music in the box, I don't know if it's Beethoven's or Mozart's piano music, but I can't name it.

It seems to be an ordinary dish, but it is delicious, and the ingredients are ordinary ingredients, but the taste is not a home-cooked flavor.

Tao Sihua remembered the price on the menu he had just browsed, and at first he thought that the price was only raised so high because of the environment, but now it seems that it is really worth the money.

After the two of them had eaten, Xia Sheng called the waiter to come in and change the pot of hot tea.

The waiter removed the plate with the leftovers, and soon served a fruit platter.

"We didn't order any fruit." Tao Sihua said.

"Manager Hu knew that Xia Shao was here, and he was very happy, this fruit was given by him, and I hope Xia Shao and Miss Tao have a happy meal."

"Thank you, Manager Hu, for me." Xia Sheng smiled.

After the waiter withdrew, Tao Sihua looked at Xia Sheng thoughtfully and smiled: "It seems that you are a frequent visitor here, you have brought your girlfriend here before, has Hua Tao also been here?" ”

Xia Sheng didn't answer this, but smiled faintly and poured her a cup of tea.

"This is rose tea, which can be drunk by pregnant women."

Tao Sihua couldn't help but smile: "You seem to care a lot about the way I am pregnant." ”

"Of course you have to care," Xia Sheng's gaze fell on her abdomen, "There is a baby in it." ”

When he said this, his expression was a little strange, soft mixed with a slight sadness.

Tao Sihua didn't pretend to be amorous, and guessed that he should have remembered his mother.

Xia Sheng treats women gently and considerately, and he treats pregnant women even more thoughtfully.

Tao Sihua almost hated this almost perfect noble son.

"Can you say that?" After drinking two rounds of tea, Xia Sheng finally couldn't help but take the initiative to ask, "I have a meeting in the afternoon." ”

The implication was that he didn't have much time to spend here with her.

Tao Sihua felt that Xia Sheng was particularly impatient today, and she could see that the other party's face was faintly irritable.

For a moment, she felt a little lost and sad.

"It's about your parents...... Actually, I don't know whether to tell you or not. Tao Sihua pretended to be embarrassed.

Xia Sheng raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows, reminding himself in his heart that he must control his temper.

Now he has no patience for anyone or anything, and he can get angry if he doesn't agree with him.

"Tell me." Xia Sheng said.

When he heard the words "about your parents", Xia Sheng couldn't help but feel his heart skip a beat.

The fact that his parents are dead is the most untouchable pain he has at the moment, and once he mentions it, it hurts once.

Tao Sihua said: "I also overheard it. ”

Hua Yunruo was obviously very wrong that day, Tao Sihua felt good about her, and was a little worried, so after Tao Shenglei came back, he specially told him that Hua Yunruo didn't seem to be very comfortable.

She didn't think about eavesdropping, but the maid made a pot of fruit tea after Tao Shenglei returned home according to the custom. She thought that Hua Yunruo hadn't eaten a drop of water all afternoon, so she thought about sending this tea over.

The door was hidden, revealing the faint sound of conversation, and she raised her hand to knock on the door, but heard what appeared to be crying inside.

Then the knocking on the door stopped.

Going in at this moment will only be extremely embarrassing.

She paused and was about to turn around and leave, but unexpectedly heard Hua Yunruo mention Xia Sheng's parents.

She knew it wasn't good to eavesdrop like this, but she eventually listened.

So I knew about the tragedy of Xia Sheng's parents.

also knew Hua Yunruo's unintentional mistake.

She knew how good Aunt Yun was to her, and whether to tell Xia Sheng about it or not, Tao Sihua was also entangled for a long time.

But just as she knew that eavesdropping was not good but still listened, she finally decided to tell Xia Sheng about it.

As for who is right and who is wrong, it depends on how the listener judges.

Tao Sihua admits that he is a villain and despicable.

She can't see the man she loves so much being sweet with other women.

She's just going to block them.

She will not brazenly think that she is not wrong, and pursue the truth that "people do not destroy heaven and earth for themselves". She knew it was wrong, and she was wrong again and again.

Just to feel better about yourself.

She has experienced so many misfortunes, why has Hua Tao always been smooth sailing and carefree.

As an older sister, it is my duty to let my younger sister grow up.

Tao Sihua said very slowly, for fear that Xia Sheng would not hear clearly. She observed his expression as she spoke, but she didn't know whether she wanted to see his sad and sad expression or her indifferent expression.

I don't know which expression means that he loves peaches more deeply.

It is the depth of love and the depth of hate.

Or love embraces everything, doesn't care, doesn't investigate.

What kind of love is true love, who can say?

After drinking a pot of tea, Tao Sihua's words were finished.

Xia Sheng laughed.

"It turns out that when I was so young, I met Hua Tao."

Tao Sihua: "......"

Is there something wrong with her narrative?

Why doesn't your son seem to have grasped the point?

Xia Sheng stood up and said, "It's not too early, I'll send you back." ”

Tao Sihua was a little disappointed in her heart, and your son's reaction at this moment was not what she expected.

She couldn't help but laugh at herself in her heart, she was really a villain in vain.

When they drove away from Haojue Hills, both of them were silent.

It's still the music that I played when I came, soothing and smooth, and it made people feel calm.

Tao Sihua's tranquility was superficial, she didn't expect Xia Sheng to really care.

From an objective point of view, Hua Yunruo really shouldn't be charged with anything. But subjectively speaking, wouldn't Xia Sheng drill the tip of the bull's horns and think about the possibility that if it weren't for Hua Yunruo's unintentional mistake, his parents might be able to escape?

But if he thought about this small possibility, it was impossible to forgive Hua Yunruo easily.

When the car entered the city, Xia Sheng suddenly increased his speed.

Tao Sihua turned his head to look at him, and found that he was frowning and looking gloomy.

Can't you pretend to be calm anymore?

"Senior Xia......" Tao Sihua said softly.

Xia Sheng glanced at her and interrupted her: "We are being followed. ”

Tao Sihua was stunned for a moment, then looked up at the rearview mirror.

There is indeed a red Santana in the rear.

"Maybe it's just the same way." Tao Sihua said.

"No," Xia Sheng's emerald green eyes gradually darkened, "When I went to Haojue, it also followed us, and it had already followed us all the way." ”

Tao Sihua suddenly became nervous.

"Why are you tracking us?" After she asked, something suddenly came to mind, "Is it a reporter?" ”

Although Xia Sheng did not become popular during this time, he did often see the newspapers, and there were more and more fans who stopped him on the road to ask for autographs.

Xia Sheng was noncommittal, but slowly increased the throttle.

"You sit tight." He said, "I'm going to get rid of them." ”

Ahead is an intersection, and the traffic lights are turning from green to yellow. Xia Sheng stepped on the accelerator to the end, and the car roared forward.

It's just that I didn't expect an electric car to suddenly rush out of the oblique stab.

Tao Sihua's eyes widened suddenly.

Ahh
