When Xu Ziyao got home, it was already nine o'clock in the morning, and after a series of twists and turns last night, she was really physically and mentally exhausted, so she simply freshened up and fell asleep on the bed.

It was the time when the heat was unbearable, but the room was fully air-conditioned and covered with a thin quilt, Xu Ziyao slept very comfortably, and slept until one o'clock in the afternoon.

Originally, she thought that she could sleep longer, but thinking that she had not visited Zhou Siying's parents since she came back, she happened to have time this afternoon, so she thought about visiting the second elder.

Zhou Siying's death hit the two of them hard, and if the murderer did not return to the case for a day, they could not feel at ease for a day, Xu Ziyao's return this time was also arranged by Uncle Zhou.

Zhou Siying's house Xu Ziyao had been there before, but before she went, she still made a phone call to Zhou Siying's mother, and only after getting the information that the two were at home did she make a request to visit.

After eating something simply, Xu Ziyao took a taxi to Yihe Xinyuan, which is located in the southern suburbs of Licheng, Zhou Siying's family background is good, this area is a high-end villa, with an independent small courtyard.

I found the location of Zhou's house with my memory, rang the doorbell, and someone came out after a while.

"Miss Xu is here, come in, Mr. and Mrs. have been talking several times." The man who came was in his forties, ordinary in appearance but very kind, wearing a linen-colored apron, apparently still doing housework before opening the door. Xu Ziyao recognized her, she was the nanny hired by the Zhou family, and she had been working in their family for more than ten years.

"Aunt Wang, do you remember me?" Waiting to open the door, Xu Ziyao politely greeted her.

"Remember, remember, why don't you remember, you are a good friend of our young lady, and you used to ...... often" As if suddenly touching a taboo, Aunt Wang's warm greetings suddenly stopped, and her eyes showed a little sadness.

At this time, another gentle female voice came out of the villa: "Is Ziyao here?" ”

Xu Ziyao walked through the courtyard to the door, and just happened to meet Zhou's mother who came to greet her, Zhou's mother in her impression has always been very well maintained, and her appearance is very high, Zhou Siying Xiao's mother, the two are more like sisters when they stand together. The woman in front of her was a lot haggard, her dark circles were very heavy, her face was yellow, there were many more wrinkles, and although her hair was still meticulous, she could vaguely see a few silver hairs.

"Auntie." Xu Ziyao's heart was sour, but she didn't dare to show it, but her voice was still a little hoarse.

Mother Zhou agreed, stepped forward and grabbed Xu Ziyao's hand, and saw that before she could say another word, tears couldn't stop flowing.

Xu Ziyao knew that she must have thought of her daughter, and she didn't dare to mention it, for fear that she would be even sadder, so she had to hug her and pat her shoulder.

"Zi Yao, don't blame your aunt, your aunt can't help it when she sees you. Think about the fact that you and Ying Ying were inseparable in the past, and whoever saw you could see the other, but now, when your aunt sees you, she can't see Ying Ying anymore. Zhou's mother wiped her tears and said.

"Auntie, I understand, I understand, don't say it's you, it's just that I'm sometimes unhappy, I still want to call Yingying when I pick up the phone, and I have to be sad for a long time every time I react."

Xu Ziyao is telling the truth, she and Zhou Siying are like a person, there is no secret between the two at all, whether they encounter something happy or unhappy, the first time must be to share with each other, this is also a habit developed over the years, although Zhou Siying has been dead for more than a year, but Xu Ziyao sometimes unconsciously picks up the phone and wants to talk to her.

But Xu Ziyao also knows that now is not the time to be sad, especially in front of Zhou Siying's parents, the pain of losing a daughter is not something anyone can bear, looking at Aunt Zhou's appearance, she knows that she has not cried less, and she must have never rested well, so people will definitely not be able to bear it.

"But aunt, you have to take care of your health, Ying Ying definitely doesn't want to see us like this, the most important thing is that my uncle's health is not good, he will be sad to see us like this, for this current family, uncle's body is more important."

For Zhou Siying's parents, the most important thing for them is only each other, so Xu Ziyao can only persuade the people they care about.

This trick really worked, Mother Zhou listened, and said while wiping her tears: "Yes, yes, you are right, my aunt is afraid that your uncle will be sad, and she usually doesn't dare to mention Yingying's affairs, and she doesn't dare to let him see it when she cries." ”

"It's hard for you, aunt, you have to be careful of your body, don't suppress yourself too much, I will stay in Licheng for a while, if you are in a bad mood or want to relax, you can tell me, I will accompany you."

Xu Ziyao is an orphan, although his adoptive father is also good to him, but he has never felt the warmth of the family, Zhou's father and Zhou's mother know their own life experience, so every time they go home with Zhou Siying, they will always care about themselves in a different way, sometimes Zhou Siying has something good, they will also remember her.

For Xu Ziyao, the warmth given to her by Zhou's father and mother is irreplaceable by others, so she also wants to take care of her friends from the bottom of her heart.

"Eh, my aunt has written it down, you kid has a heart." Mother Zhou listened to Xu Ziyao's words and was very comforted.

After packing up her emotions, Zhou's mother took Xu Ziyao upstairs to see Zhou's father.

When the two walked into the study, Zhou's father was standing in front of the desk, with rice paper on the table, and Zhou's father was holding a brush in his hand, obviously wanting to write.

Xu Ziyao remembered that Uncle Zhou loved calligraphy and was quite accomplished, but looking at the blank rice paper and slightly peeling ink on the table, she knew that Uncle Zhou must have maintained this action for a long time.

However, gay men's emotions are restrained after all, no matter how uncomfortable they are, they will not show it on their faces.

"Ziyao is here, sit."

Uncle Zhou pointed to the sofa in the study, then put down the pen in his hand, and paced here and sat down.

Xu Ziyao came to visit Zhou's father and Zhou's mother, on the one hand, she wanted to visit the second elder, and on the other hand, she also wanted to understand the situation before Zhou Siying was killed, and see if she could find some clues, so although she knew that mentioning the past was tantamount to opening the wound of the second elder again, she still asked.

"We all told the police everything we could think of, I really don't have a clue, you know Yingying, this kid, it's very well-behaved, I'm so happy that I just got a boyfriend, and I said I want to tell you the good news. She also gets along very well with her colleagues, and we really can't imagine who she will have a grudge with, this is simply a disaster......"

Zhou's mother said, and couldn't help shedding tears, Zhou's father glanced at his old wife, but opened his mouth but couldn't say words of comfort, just sighed.

Xu Ziyao sorted out the information she got from Zhou's father and Zhou's mother, and there were indeed no useful clues, she looked at the smiling photo of her friend in her hand, felt the pain in Zhou's father and Zhou's mother's heart, and secretly swore in her heart that she must find out the truth in order to comfort her friend's soul in the sky.
