"For ghosts, death is the dissolution of the soul." Xu Yijin's expression is still the same, so that people can't see joy and anger.

But I may have been with him for a long time, and when I saw that he blinked more often than usual, I knew that he was actually sad too.

Not only him, but I also felt empty in my heart.

Xiaohong hasn't been with me for long, and I'm even a little afraid of her, but after all, I already regard her as my friend.

In my mind's confusion, I vaguely remembered the fragmentary images of last night.

She was still with me before I went to sleep.

As soon as she woke up, she was gone.

I always feel that there are thousands of links involved, like an invisible spider's web, connected everywhere. It seems that the answer is about to come out, but I just can't grasp that point.

"Are you kidding me?" I looked at Xu Yijin.

He didn't speak, just glanced at me.

But I already knew the answer from his look.

My hand tightened and loosened, loosened and tightened, and stared at him for a long time, and he looked at me for a long time.

The two men did not speak for a long time.

"When did Xiaohong have an accident?" I asked, pursing my lips.

Xu Yijin glanced at me from the bathroom mirror and said, "After you leave the attic." ”

"How do you know?"

He didn't put surveillance on me, he didn't locate me.

Could it be that he still has the eye to know when I did something?

He seemed to be able to understand my thoughts, and reached out and flicked it on my forehead, but there was still no smile on his face and said, "Why do you think something chased you all the way to scare you, deliberately leading you to the attic?" ”

I shudder when I think of last night's scene.

But I still didn't understand what he meant.

Xu Yijin said: "They want you to save Xiaohong." ”

This sentence was like thunder, and my whole body froze in place as if it had been filled with lead.

When he reminded me like this, I immediately felt that the willows were bright, and I understood it all at once.

"Little Red was in the attic?" I made up all the things that happened yesterday, "I was going to leave the attic several times, and she would make noises to get my attention, right?" ”

Xu Yijin nodded slightly.

"Why didn't she just call me?"

"What if you can't speak and you can't move?" Xu Yijin asked rhetorically.

Seeing that I was silent in thought, his knuckles tapped on the sink and continued, "Xiaohong was very seriously injured at that time. ”

It's just that, but I already know it.

I can even imagine that in the attic at that time, Xiaohong didn't know where she was hidden, covered in blood or wounds, and had no way to make a sound or move, so she could only push down the things around her and try to get my attention.

Obviously, until then, she was still fine.

I had mixed feelings in my heart, and self-blame arose.

"Why is Xiaohong in the attic, and why is she hurt?"

"Who else was in the attic but you at that time?"

"You mean, Mr. Zhang did it?"

Xu Yijin was silent.

I remembered Mr. Zhang's previous words that meant something, and suddenly I understood everything.

If I could have paid more attention at that time, I would have informed Xu Yijin when I found that Xiaohong was missing. Or be careful in the attic and find Xiaohong.

She may still be saved.

Xu Yijin hooked the bridge of my nose impartially and said, "Don't blame yourself. The surname Zhang stared at her at first sight, Xiaohong is not an ordinary ghost, she has been targeted by Taoist priests, but this time she met a more powerful one. ”

At the end, he paused, and then said, "This is her life." ”

Yes, that way, last night's events can be explained.

At first, he used the ball to scare me awake, and then naturally let me see the thing on the ceiling, and the first reaction of ordinary people when they saw that kind of thing was to run, how far and how far to run.

And I did.

When I got to the staircase, there was something on the stairs leading downstairs that I couldn't face, so I had no choice but to run up to the attic.

They didn't mean to hurt me, they just wanted to lure me to save Xiaohong.

Everything falls into place.

I finally understood what Mr. Zhang meant when he said that they were united.

They didn't dare to go to the attic, or rather, they were afraid of Mr. Zhang.

But I'm a living person, and Mr. Zhang won't do anything to me.

That's why they went out of their way to get me to the attic.

I let out a long sigh and buried my head in Xu Yijin's arms, he paused, and slowly reached out to hold me.

My eyes were red, and I didn't know if I blamed myself or because of Xiaohong's departure.

Xu Yijin didn't make a sound, only wrapped his hand around me, like silent comfort.

We kept this movement stiff for a long time, and no one moved.

It wasn't until there was movement in the living room that I sniffed, straightened up, and said, "Get out." ”

He nodded.

I thought it was my dad who came back from talking to Liu Shichen, walked from the bathroom to the living room, and when I got closer, I realized that it was Lin Yan.

She had her back to me, and she shouldn't have noticed me yet, and Xu Yijin and I didn't move a few steps away from her.

I saw Lin Yan holding Chen Xianjing's hand and coquettishly: "Auntie, when will Shichen come back?" Did he know I was coming, so he deliberately avoided me? ”

Chen Xianjing's brows twisted imperceptibly, but she didn't forget her upbringing, and she still had a smile on her face: "How could it be, he just went to talk to people about business, walked around in the garden, and came back after a while." ”

Liu Chengping was no longer in the living room at this time, there were only two people, Chen Xianjing and Lin Yan.

Until a servant stepped forward and asked, "Why are you two standing here all the time?" How can we help? ”

I shook my head and waved my hand.

She looked at Xu Yijin again, but the latter didn't even give her a look.

Although the movement was not loud, Lin Yan still heard it, she turned her head suddenly, looked at us, the whole person was like lighting a fuse, got up from the sofa, and asked sharply, "Why are you here?" You broke my engagement with Shichen, what do you want to do now? ”

Chen Xianjing also looked for prestige, but she didn't react, she only pulled Lin Yan and signaled that she was too aggressive, saying, "Zhou Zhou and Xiao Xu are here to talk to your Uncle Liu about business." ”

"Auntie, don't be deceived by her. She's a wolf in sheep's clothing! Lin Yan pointed to my nose and raised her head to scold: "She must have come today for Shichen." I knew that this woman would not be so kind, eating in the pot and looking at the bowl! ”

Chen Xianjing's face was a little ugly.

I'm not a good-tempered person, I have a little temper during my pregnancy, and I was just about to reply a few words, but I saw Xu Yijin protecting most of my body behind me.

He stood straight and said coldly, "Please pay attention to the wording." ”
