Chapter 170: Torture
"Father!" A voice disturbed Xiao Zheng's contemplation, and he turned around to see Feng Yao with a haggard face. The bright shadow of the sun was blocked by the window lattice, sealing Feng Yao's sad face in the shadow.
"You ......" Xiao Zheng's wise eyes saw through something at a glance, but behind the insight into everything was full of distress, there had never been a moment when he had seen Feng Yao so depressed and so haggard. Even though she has injuries on her body, that injury is her heartbreak...... Xiao Zheng had an inexplicable heat wave surging in his throat, and he was trying to suppress it.
"Is that girl Sister Susu?" Feng Yao trembled his dry lips and looked at the street where there was no longer Qin Susu's back, the sunlight outside was just right, and the spacious street was very bright. In the past, she was absolutely depressed in such weather, but at this moment, even Feng Yao herself was surprised, it turned out that she was so afraid of the sun one day! Her eyes didn't know if they were burned by the strong sunlight or if she couldn't help the bitterness in her heart and burst the embankment, she only felt that her eyes were sour.
"What?" Xiao Zheng tilted his head and asked.
"Auntie's girl...... Is it Sister Susu? Feng Yao said.
"This ...... You...... How do you know? Looking at Feng Yao's expression, Xiao Zheng knew that it would be useless for him to pretend to be confused.
Feng Yao smiled bitterly, and she said lightly, "If I say that I may have doubted Sister Susu's identity earlier than my father, will my father be surprised?" ”
Xiao Zheng looked at Feng Yao again, in the past few months in the capital, he was too busy with his own plans and too much to manage his revenge, so that he neglected to take care of Feng Yao. Today, this weak girl stood in front of him, and he completely felt that Feng Yao had completely matured. It's no longer the little girl who can't hide things, and it's no longer the little girl who only knows how to shout and play! She has her mind, she has her thoughts, and she has her own thoughts and little secrets. Xiao Zheng felt a little lonely for a while, he looked at Feng Yao attentively, not surprised by the truth she knew, but more lamented by her growth.
Feng Yao looked at Xiao Zheng, she smiled, with a bitter smile, which made people feel a little distressed. She said slowly, "I don't know if it's fate...... The first outsider I saw when I came to the capital was Lan Yi, and now he is the son of my own aunt. And the first woman I saw was Sister Susu......" Feng Yao had a faint smile on the corner of her mouth, and the scene of the first time she went to Fengyazhai had already appeared in her mind, and the girl with a sad face who was dizzy and dizzy by a debauched prodigal son deeply attracted her attention and aroused her sympathy. Feng Yao didn't care about Qin Susu's identity at all, and it was better not to hide his good impression of her. And just like that, without any reason or warning, they quickly became sisters. And Qin Susu also opened his heart to Feng Yao. Two completely different girls got acquainted like that, she was her only girlfriend in the capital, she was the only sister she could trust in this world!
There is nothing inseparable between them, some are just sincere desire to accompany each other when they are in trouble, and sincere comfort when they are lost. Until one day, Feng Yao found the simple lock hanging around Su Su's neck, she said that it might be the only memorial left to her by her biological parents, she not only did not regret the vulgarity of the lock but thanked its simplicity, because if that thing was worth silver, it might have been sold by her adoptive father.
Qin Susu is different from the ordinary women in Fireworks Willow Lane in Feng Yao's eyes, she is indifferent to fame and fortune, kind-hearted, she treats people sincerely and without pretentiousness, she believes in love, she has a heart that pursues ordinary...... On occasions like Feng Yazhai's struggle for fame and fortune, Qin Susu has become a typical exception. That exception makes her stand out from the crowd, and it also makes her so out of place, and at the same time, it is because of that exception that it attracts more admirers. It's a strange circle, so strange that people can't explain it, but it's also really convincing to everyone.
In Feng Yazhai, Qin Susu doesn't have any good friends, and even the maid who takes care of herself is half-hearted to her, but Feng Yao is an exception. Feng Yao believed in his own vision and didn't care about any of Qin Susu's identities. Especially knowing her lock, her feelings for her are even stronger.
Maybe this is the fate that God is destined for, destined for them to leave that small mountain village, destined for them to come here, destined for everything between them to meet by chance without any help!
It turned out that everything had already taken root in Feng Yao's heart, but it was not yet time to blossom and bear fruit. Xiao Zheng listened to Feng Yao's narration, as if he was listening to his daughter tell him a story with twists and turns, the plot of this story is not so twists and turns, nor is it so exciting, but Xiao Zheng listened to it so fascinated.
"Then you ......" Xiao Zheng looked at Feng Yao hesitantly, he had an indescribable relief.
"Father wondered why I had such doubts, why didn't I say anything to anyone?" Feng Yao's eyes retracted from the bright window, and her eyes were a little strange because of her gaze. She blinked, her long eyelashes blinking up and down, tumbling with infinite worry.
"I'm in the same mood as my father, it's very complicated. I hope that this thing is true, but I am also worried that such a thing is true......" Feng Yao didn't say any more, Xiao Zheng's heart also tightened for a while, he didn't make a sound, just sighed deeply.
Nanfeng and Fluttershy returned, and they saw Xiao Zheng and Feng Yao at a glance, and Fluttershy was even more surprised, and she walked straight over, "Daddy Xiao, you ...... Your body...... There is also a seal ...... Feng Yao...... How did you...... Also ......"
"I'm fine, you don't have to worry about me." Xiao Zheng comforts Fluttershy.
"Then ......" Fluttershy stood beside Feng Yao, who had just felt Feng Yao's heartache.
"I didn't say it, and another reason is that I haven't decided yet, and I don't want to add trouble and hope to everyone. What's more, there are so many locks and keys in this world, if you see a lock and connect it with your own key, it will be messed up. What's more, the materials of these two things are very different, and no one can easily connect these two things. Even if it is connected, Sister Susu's identity is so complicated, who can guarantee that this thing must be hers on her body? There are a lot of uncertainties in this, and it is indeed complicated to prove. Even if I thought about it and guessed it, I couldn't confirm it, so ......" Feng Yao ignored Fluttershy and continued to finish his thoughts.
"You ...... What is this talking about? Could it be ......" Fluttershy's surprise speaks for itself.
"Daddy......" Nanfeng looked at Xiao Zheng.
"That's what your sister guessed for herself." Xiao Zheng explained.
Feng Yao...... Who do you mean...... Su Su ...... "Fluttershy seems to have some kind of inexplicable feeling about all this, and she looks at Feng Yaodao.
Feng Yao smiled hard at Fluttershy, "Nothing is yet decided. ”
"But the lock on Miss Susu ......" Fluttershy can't even think further.
"The lock on her body is real...... Xiao Zheng sighed, Nanfeng carried him back to the recliner he was in the middle of the shop, because his body squatted a little harder, it could be seen that Xiao Zheng's wound was still a little painful. He tensed his expression so that no one could see it, and sat down through gritted teeth.
Although it is also in the front hall, it is difficult for guests to find that there are still people here because of the shelter of several intricately carved pillars.
The three young people unconsciously surrounded Xiao Zheng, Xiao Zheng's lips trembled slightly, and his voice was almost so low that it couldn't be lower, but every word that could come out clearly fell into the ears of the three people, "That lock, it was my mother's mother, that is, your grandmother left me and your aunt, a lock, a key." The lock was given to me and the key was given to my aunt. She said that although this thing is not worth much money, it is a kind of affection for our brothers and sisters, and she hopes that our brothers and sisters will never forget their brotherhood and family, and they will be able to help each other no matter what difficulties they encounter in the future. The corners of Xiao Zheng's mouth unconsciously showed a few smiles, it was his happiest childhood, although he was poor, but he was extremely happy and precious. Every time he recalls that year, his memories are always full of family affection.
"Later, during that period of escape, I also gave the lock to your aunt, one was already the worst plan that I would die, and the other was to be able to transfer your grandmother's care for me to your aunt, and I hope that she will be safe and happy!" When it comes to that time, Xiao Zheng's thoughts are very complicated.
"Yes...... But the key on Lan Yi's body is obviously jade, and it is very exquisitely crafted, and the two things have no meaning to match at all? Feng Yao asked.
"This ...... Maybe Lan Hongda felt that the humble key was not worthy of what his son did later! This is not surprising at all, because I am sure that the lock is the one that your grandmother left me! And I'm sure your aunt will be able to judge too! ”
As soon as Xiao Zheng's words came out, the three young people, including Nanfeng, took a deep breath!
"That'...... Right now...... Has Daddy confirmed it all? Nanfeng asked.
Xiao Zheng still shook his head.
"Why? Is it because of Sister Susu's identity? Feng Yao asked.
Xiao Zheng still shook his head. He couldn't tell what it was, and he didn't know if he was looking forward to it or what he was afraid of. However, he has already dragged someone to investigate, and the results are believed to be known soon.
Several people were extremely gloomy, and one thing that should have been happy made everyone's hearts uneasy and nervous at this moment.
