Su Xiaoxiao woke up the next night, the dazzling incandescent light on the ceiling turned into a white shadow in front of her eyes, and her thoughts were in a trance. I don't know where I am with my empty head, but I feel like I've slept deeply.

The hand habitually touched the stomach, from top to bottom, without the raised hill, let alone the intimate action.

It's just more, one more.

All the memories flashed back at that moment, and the speed of light rushed into the cranial nerves, spreading throughout the body. Before I could feel the pain in my heart, tears began to flow uncontrollably on the pillow.

After a while, the sound of the door opening was heard, and the sound of heavy footsteps was getting closer and closer, and finally stopped at the side of the bed. The warm palm touched her face, and a deep voice echoed through the empty room, "How long have you been awake?" ”

Su Xiao turned his head slightly, and the man's expression slowly became clear beyond the tears that had confused his eyes. After a long time, she spoke hoarsely: "Yitian, is Jian Jian gone?" ”

That calm and somewhat abnormal attitude made Qin Yitian's heart suddenly clench. He leaned closer, gently pressed her head under her collarbone, and said softly with the emotion that might erupt at any moment, "I'm sorry, I didn't protect him well." ”

As the words fell, Su Xiaoxiao's hand grabbed Qin Yitian's arm and began to cry.

From a low whimper, to a howl at the end.

In the next few days, Su Xiaoxiao was silent, and there was no emotion on his face, and the whole person was so calm that it was worrying.

Bai Yaxuan came almost every day, but it had no effect, no matter what she said to her, Su Xiaoxiao ignored it. If it weren't for the occasional glance at herself, or taking the initiative to hold her hand, Bai Yaxuan would have thought that she had fallen into autism.

Qin Yitian blocked the whole news, and even the company and "Qi Ye" didn't dare to go, and stayed by Su Xiaoxiao's side almost every inch. The pain didn't show on his face, but every late at night, when the woman's silent tears wet his chest, he couldn't help but hug her in his sleep, and then lost sleep all night long.

The day after the accident, the incident was judged to be an accident, and the driver who caused the accident was quickly found.

Qin Yitian didn't say much about the results of the investigation, but asked the media not to leak half a word, because the elders in the family were all still in the dark. He couldn't imagine how Qin Fengze and Su Tingxiao would react when they knew that the grandson they had been looking forward to for nine months was gone. Now Qin Yitian has no extra thoughts to appease them.

Of course, he didn't think it was really just an accident, and the results of the investigation given by Galo puzzled him. This is obviously deliberate, and it has been planned for a long time. Everything was so coincidental that he even suspected He Liannan's head.

It was he who sent Su Xiaoxiao and them to the hospital, and he also informed him. The statement given by He Liannan was that he made an appointment with Su Xiaoxiao at Pinmingxuan, and Qin Yitian did see the big bag of things he bought for Qin Shujian.

Therefore, although there are doubts in the heart, there is no evidence.

A week after the incident, Qin Fengze didn't know where to get the news, and he fainted directly without getting up in one breath. That day, Qin Yitian called Bai Yaxuan to the hospital to accompany Su Xiaoxiao, and he rushed to the old house to take care of his grandfather. And He Liannan completely crushed Su Xiaoxiao's heart that could still be repaired on this day.

After the accident, Qin Yitian did not allow anyone other than Bai Yaxuan to approach the ward, and specially arranged for two people with good skills to guard in front of the door.

He Liannan appeared at the door on time and was not surprised to be stopped. However, he didn't explain too much, just took out his mobile phone and called Su Xiaoxiao.

At that time, Su Xiaoxiao was looking at the ceiling with her eyes open, and her mobile phone kept vibrating on the table, but she didn't have the idea of picking it up. There are only a few people who will call her, but she doesn't want to deal with any of them now.

Helplessly, the man seemed to be very patient, and he didn't answer any of them, and he didn't continue to fight immediately, but continued after two minutes. So repeatedly, Su Xiaoxiao was a little irritable.

She reached out and picked up her phone, her eyes skimmed over the screen, and she wanted to smash it directly, but she suddenly remembered the scene on the day of the incident, and something that had been forgotten rushed into her mind.

She made an appointment with He Liannan and Chen Xiao.

What will they see?

Her eyes were tightly locked on the three words "He Liannan", and her heartbeat became inexplicably faster. Finally, her fingertips swiped tremblingly across the screen—on.

"Hello?" A familiar voice came from the other end.

"Tiny? I'm Liannan, are you listening? He Liannan, who had not received a response for a long time, asked cautiously again.

"He Shao."

"How are you? I'm at the door, can I go in and see you if it's convenient? ”

Su Xiaoxiao turned her head to look at the door, and after a while, she said, "You give them the phone, and I'll tell them." ”

"Okay."

Although the caretaker was very hesitant, Su Xiaoxiao opened his mouth, and he didn't know how to refuse, so he had to reluctantly respond and let He Liannan enter the door.

Su Xiaoxiao put the phone on the pillow, sat up and leaned against the head of the bed, pulled the quilt and called out expressionlessly: "He Shao." ”

"I just came back from a business trip, I'm sorry to come to see you now." He Liannan grabbed a pillow and put it behind her back.

"It's okay."

The conversation fell silent at this point, and Su Xiaowan turned his face out of the window, and unconsciously put his hand on his stomach and rubbed it gently.

Looking at her movements and expressions, the corners of He Liannan's mouth were inadvertently hooked, and he was not in a hurry to say anything, just stayed with her quietly.

The sound of the clock moving on the wall was unusually clear in the quiet room. Suddenly, a strong wind rose outside, drowned out the bell, blew up the curtain, and poured into the ward.

He Liannan got up and walked to the window, closed the window and walked back again.

Su Xiaoxiao slightly caged her confused thoughts, and cast her eyes on him: "If He Shao is fine, I want to sleep for a while." ”

"Actually, I'm here to deliver something, and I still have a few words to say to you." He Liannan stood beside the bed, looking at Su Xiao's eyes a little condescendingly, his voice was still gentle, but his eyes were slightly different.

And it was just a little bit different, so that the feeling of fear returned to Su Xiaoxiao's brain, her voice trembled, and she blurted out, "Who are you?" ”

"Xiaoxiao asked, I really don't know how to answer, He Liannan, your friend."

"I must have seen you, I must have seen you." Those eyes, the fierceness of his eyes at the moment, she must have seen it, she was sure she had seen it.

"Show you something, and I'll give it back to you for someone." After speaking, He Liannan took out a purse from the inner pocket of his coat, which was embroidered with a peony. Then his fingers gently pulled the rope and pulled out a peace charm from it.

Su Xiaoxiao originally just felt that things were familiar, but when the peace charm entered her eyes, there was only horror left in her eyes.

A scene from the past comes back to memory:

"This is what I specially went to the temple of Prayer Blessing Mountain to ask for, you go so far alone, and you can keep you safe with me."

"Then I'll keep it safe."

"You have to promise me that I must take care of myself, and I will be back as soon as the class is over."

"Well, I will definitely finish the division as soon as possible, and then come back and marry you."

"Who told you that I was going to marry you, three years is a long time, if you don't hurry up, maybe I'll really run away."

"You won't be tiny, I know."

Su Xiaoxiao looked at He Liannan in a daze, and finally remembered the origin of the purse.

"He told me that this peace charm was the only thing he had left, something you gave him."

"Who are you Gu Xijie?" Su Xiaoxiao clenched his fists, and he had already realized in his heart that the initiator of everything was the seemingly gentle man in front of him, he was close to him, and he had always had a purpose.

Hearing this, He Liannan hung the peace talisman in front of his eyes, and after a little thought, he slowly spoke: "If I have anything to do with him, it should be regarded as a companion." A companion with the same enemy. ”

After speaking, he put down his purse, pulled over the stool and sat down, leaned forward with his elbows on his knees, and said with a faint smile: "Since Xiaoxiao is so interested, then I will tell you everything I have done." ”

"Where to start?" He Liannan's gentle expression glanced at Su Xiaoxiao, and then made a decision, "Let's start with what you guessed." ”

After speaking, he changed his movements, naturally erected Erlang's legs to the back of the chair, and then slowly spoke, his tone seemed to tell a story: "As you think, I deliberately approached you in Luo City, the location was deliberately chosen by me, and the notebook was also deliberately left by me, the only thing I didn't expect was that you would simply take the bait for the first time, which really saved a lot of trouble." ”

"All my appearances after that were deliberate. Paint Night's mission always gets in the way, you know, that's what I did. The time Qin Yitian lost two of his subordinates, that is, the time when you went to buy golf clubs and he temporarily left, and I did it. and he almost lost his life when he went to Southeast Asia, and Qin Zheng and Lu Huzhen's car accidents were all done by me. ”

"You don't have to look at me like that, aren't they all alive and well now? Those who didn't die were just some of their men, and I'm really angry that they didn't die. ”

"So you weren't being used by Gu Xijie, you have an enmity with the Qin family, right?" Su Xiaoxiao finally understood his reason, and forced her anger to speak.

"Xiaoxiao, why do you think that I am being used by him, we are just old acquaintances, if you really want to say that I am using him, I am also using him. used him to deceive Qin Yitian's eyes, and used him to hide himself. ”

"Actually, I don't think I do much. Surely you have already guessed what is said. I'll tell you what you don't know, and I'm sure you'll be surprised. ”

"Chen Xiao's fiancée, remember? Jing Mian, oh yes, I forgot that she's also your friend now. ”

"Why would she know about you? I took a picture of you and Chen Xiao and sent it to her. That girl was much less timid than I thought, and she hesitated for a long time to give her an idea to hire someone to scare you, and in the end I secretly helped find someone. Isn't it useless to say. ”

"Xiaoxiao, you are just too simple, if I didn't have any intentions on you, how could I show up so coincidentally every time you were blocked by her? That's just to gain your trust. ”

"Xiaoxiao, I didn't think you would have an impression of me, so I had to spare such a detour, to be honest, it was very difficult, but fortunately, the effect was obvious."

"By the way, the photos of Qin Yitian and Mo Ling were sent to you by me, Qin Zheng will disrupt my plans, I hope you and Qin Yitian are doing well, so that I can do well. You should also thank me for this, I am on your side in this matter. ”

"Xiaoxiao, in fact, I really regard you as a friend, you have no distractions, you don't care about anything, it's really comfortable to get along with you, but it's a pity why do you have to choose Qin Yitian, you have to choose the Qin family I hate the most?"

"Actually, I never thought of hurting you before Gu Xijie died, but Qin Yitian really killed him mercilessly, I said that if I wasn't angry, it must be false. Do you know? Although we use each other, we are also interdependent, and he has been by my side for so many years. You know how it feels like someone who has been there all of a sudden is gone? ”

"So you're going to attack Jian Jian because of this? He Liannan, how can you bear it. You also called him Jianjian, you also bought him clothes and toys, and you even talked to him so many times, how can you do it? Hearing this, Su Xiaoxiao suddenly roared, the person in front of her said lightly, she couldn't accept what he said, just because of Gu Xijie, just because of Gu Xijie, he gave Jian Jian's life.

"It's just a gamble, everything I say to Jian Jian is true, and my heart for buying things is also true, because it's entirely possible for him to come into this world, as long as he wins. It's a pity that he didn't win, he lost to you Xiaoxiao, the person who doesn't want him is not me, and there is someone else who doesn't want him. ”

"What do you say? What do you mean? Su Xiao suddenly rushed forward, staring at He Liannan with his eyes, and unconsciously tugging at his sleeve.

"The person who doesn't want Qin Shujian is his father, Qin Yitian, not me." He Liannan leaned forward and replied with a smile a few centimeters away from Su Xiaoxiao.

The words fell, and suddenly, Su Xiaoxiao raised his arm and slapped him on the smiling face, "You're lying!" Impossible, it is impossible for him not to be simple! You lie......"

He Liannan rubbed the position where he was beaten, but he was not angry, his expression quickly recovered from being slightly stunned to as gentle as ever, lowered his head and chuckled twice.

"Impossible, how can this be ......" Su Xiaoxiao covered her stomach with her hands, and shook her head as she moved back to the corner of the bed.

A few seconds later, a thought appeared in her mind, she raised her eyes sharply, and her scarlet eyes looked straight at He Liannan: "If it's not Jian Jian, it's me who will die, right?" ”

He Liannan shrugged his shoulders and nodded slightly.

"Why? Why didn't he say it, how could he hide it from me? Su Xiaoxiao couldn't accept this fact at all, the reason why she was able to know that Qin Shujian was gone when she woke up was because she always thought that Qin Shujian had already died in a car accident and died in surgery.

That day on the operating table, she was awake for a moment, and when the doctor cut her belly layer by layer, she woke up, and she vaguely saw Qin Shujian being carried out, and she saw the expressions of the doctors. She saw them all, so she was convinced that her child had died in the accident.

How could it not be?

So it was a choice of two, Qin Yitian gave up Qin Shujian.

Su Xiaoxiao's heart was so painful that she couldn't breathe, and she couldn't even cry.

Seeing her appearance, He Liannan was also a little unbearable, and after a while, he continued: "Xiaoxiao, this is just a game, you and Jian Jian are bargaining chips, and Qin Yitian is a participant. It's a pity that he still lost a chip in the end. But no matter what, my goal will be achieved. ”

"What I want in this game is that Qin Yitian is in pain. What is life, but the fingers are flying, but the heart is different, as long as the heart does not die, I want him to be in pain all the time, life is better than death. This is his Qin family, and he owes me 'Qi Ye'. ”

"What exactly do you want to do? Why do this to him? ”

"I said it was going to make him lose the person he loved the most." At this moment, He Liannan finally showed his ruthlessness, it was like a different person, and his eyes were dyed with a gloomy murderous aura.

The two looked at each other like this, their eyes were as blood-red, and suddenly, Su Xiaoxiao lifted the quilt and threw herself at him, picked up the glass on the storage table and smashed it on his head.

He Liannan quickly grabbed her wrist and pulled her into his arms, pressed her waist tightly and whispered in her ear: "I hinted at you, it's just that you were carried away by happiness." Your wedding gift, don't you feel familiar with that dress? That's the same when you and Gu Xijie went on their first date. But you forgot. ”

A blue one-shoulder dress.

Su Xiaoxiao froze again.

The voice in my ear continued to drill into my heart: "Xiaoxiao, do you know how panicked I am every time you look at me with that kind of fear, how afraid I am that you will think of me." Of course, I can't blame you if I can't remember, I'm surprised that you can remember, after all, we only looked at each other for a few seconds. ”

Look at each other for a few seconds!

The last few words fell on her heart, and what scene exploded directly in Su Xiaoxiao's brain, and then, her weak body began to tremble uncontrollably, she was really scared. Because she remembered who he was.

"Remember?" He Liannan smiled with some relief, "You said that if you didn't block that shot at that time and let Qin Yitian die directly, wouldn't there be so many things after that?" I believe that you can also live a good life and find someone who is really suitable for you, such as Jiang Pingxi, or, Chen Xiao, no matter how you look at it, you think it will be happier than now. ”

The successive messages had already made Su Xiaoxiao unresponsive, and she couldn't help trembling, and soon collapsed on He Liannan's body.

Feeling that what should be said was finished, He Liannan squatted slightly, picked her up and gently put her back on the bed, ignored her eyes, pulled up the quilt to help her cover it, and gently tucked the hair scattered on her face behind her ears.

Finally, he straightened up and took out another thing from the inner bag and put it in Su Xiaoxiao's hand.

"I've said everything I have to say, and I won't disturb your rest. Don't worry, in my heart, you will always be my friend. This one has something in it that interests you, you have time to check it out, and trust me, you will want to know. ”

After the words fell, He Liannan stopped lingering, turned around and left the ward.

Su Xiaoxiao slowed down for a long, long time before calming down his trembling body slightly. She looked down at the mobile phone left by He Liannan, her heart tingled for no reason, she suddenly didn't dare to click on it, but she had a gut feeling that if she didn't look at it, she might regret it for the rest of her life.

After several struggles, his thumb finally moved to the unlocking button, as if it was a hot potato, and even his fingertips began to shrink.

The screen lights up and a recorded video fills the full screen. Su Xiaoxiao recognized at a glance that it was at the intersection in front of Pin Mingxuan. In the picture, the car she was riding in that day overturned on the side of the road, and a man not far away fell to the ground motionless. Outside the back seat of the car, there was another figure, wearing an off-white turtleneck, lying on the ground and leaning into the car.

Tian En, Chen Xiao. After waking up, he was immersed in the pain of losing Qin Shujian, and he forgot about them at that time.

A bad premonition came over me. Su Xiaoxiao tapped the screen, and the scene inside began to move. The picture is zoomed in, the camera is only in the direction of Chen Xiao, and all his movements fall into the bottom of his eyes.

He did everything in his power to get her out of the car.

He picked her up and said something nervously.

He alone stood in their way.

One against two, even Su Xiaoxiao, a layman, can see how different Chen Xiao's skills are from the other two, but he spares no effort to fight back fiercely.

When Chen Xiao knelt in front of her and used her body to block all the attacks for her, Su Xiaoxiao was already crying uncontrollably. Every knock on his back pierced her heart at the same time, and the pain was so painful that she couldn't breathe.

In the end, when the long stick smashed on his head, Su Xiaoxiao was the only one left in his eyes.

She saw blood drip from his forehead all the way down, over his smiling face, and onto his collar.

She saw him holding her hand tightly in a trance, pressing it tightly in his heart, muttering something in his mouth.

She saw him rubbing her hair and looking down into her stomach to speak.

She saw him end up at her feet, his hand slipping down her cheek.

The last picture of the video is a soft sunlight shining on Chen Xiao, and his face is a bright smile, which is no different from usual.

Su Xiaoxiao didn't think about anything, and got out of bed with her mobile phone in her hands, because her legs and feet were weak and she was directly soft on the side of the bed. She struggled to her feet and stumbled out.

"Miss Su, where are you going?" The people outside the door saw her suddenly appear and immediately stopped her.

At this moment, Su Xiaoxiao's face turned red, her eyes were full of indifference, and she turned her eyes and roared angrily: "Get out!" ”

"Tiny? Tiny, how did you come out. Bai Yaxuan's voice came from the depths of the corridor, and Su Xiaoxiao ran over as if she had found a life-saving straw.

"Tiny?" Sensing that something was wrong with her, Bai Yaxuan's heart sank, and she immediately took steps to meet her. Closing the distance, she found that Su Xiaoxiao's hair was messy, her face was full of tears, and tears kept pouring out of her eyelids, "Xiaoxiao, what happened?" ”

Su Xiaoxiao grabbed Bai Yaxuan's arm tightly with both hands, shook it vigorously, and asked word by word, almost gritting her teeth, "What about Chen Xiao?" ”

The name of "Chen Xiao" came into his ears, and the bag in Bai Yaxuan's hand fell to the ground, and the whole person stayed there and didn't know how to respond.

"Let me ask you, what about Chen Xiao? What about Chen Xiao? Where is he? ”

Bai Yaxuan had never seen Su Xiaoxiao so hoarse, and it was fake to say that she was not scared, but the deep reason was that Qin Yitian asked to hide it, and she couldn't figure out how to speak.

"You don't say I'll find it myself." Seeing that she didn't react for a long time, Su Xiaoxiao shook off her arm and ran straight to the stairwell.

"Tiny, where are you going?" At this time, Bai Yaxuan finally came back to her senses, hurriedly turned around and chased after her, hugging her waist from behind.

"You let go of me, I'm going to find him, you know it's right, he was there on the day of the accident, why didn't you tell me? How was he hurt? Where is he? ”

"Yaxuan, will you tell me? He saved me! He saved me! How could I leave him alone! ”

"Xiaoxiao, Chen Xiao is dead. He died on the spot. ”
