A year later.

Time can change everything and heal everything, and it's true. Chenxi's company gradually got on the right track, and after Qiao Jiang was gone, Chenxi removed all the moths in the company, separated the branch and the head office, and from then on, he no longer needed to obey the orders of the board of directors. Qiqi is still the same, her biggest dream in this life is to eat and drink, and there are no other superfluous requirements, although Huayan's departure has dealt a blow to her life, but Qiqi still laughs all day long like no one.

Su Xiaoran knew that Qiqi should be very sad in his heart, and now Qiqi has also learned to hide himself secretly when he is sad.

Su Xiaoran founded her own advertising company, which is not a large company, there are a total of more than a dozen people before and after, she accompanies her parents at home when she is not busy on weekdays, and waits for teachers, Su Xiaoran took over her parents half a year ago, the house in her hometown was sold, and her parents did not have much opinion, for them, the place where they can see their daughter from time to time is the best place to support the elderly.

Life was uneventful, Su Xiaoran and Chenxi maintained a relationship and did not get married. Su Xiaoran thought that everything would go on like this, until one day, on a summer afternoon, she met Hua Yan again, yes, after a year, Hua Yan actually appeared again, but this time, he had long hair, draped over his shoulders, and put on a leather jacket on his body, and stepped on black boots that did not match the summer, looking like a wandering artist.

Huayan's dress reminded Su Xiaoran of Wan Lei, the former predecessor of Qiqi's predecessor, Qiqi once said that she was most easily fascinated by men full of art.

"Are you alright?"

It was Hua Yan who greeted him first, he still loves to laugh so much, but in this smile, there is a little more vicissitudes and indifference, although it is contradictory, but this seems to be Hua Yan now!

"Where did you go and why did you come back?" Su Xiaoran's eyes fell on the canvas bag in Hua Yan's hand, it seemed to be a homeless man's style, for a year, she didn't know what Hua Yan had experienced.

"Let me have a cup of coffee!"

Hua Yan reminded Su Xiaoran that they were still standing on the side of the road, under the scorching summer.

……

The two walked into the nearby café one after the other, and Su Xiaoran walked behind, staring at Hua Yan's dusty dress, thinking about whether to talk to Qiqi.

"You seem to have changed."

As soon as she sat down, Hua Yan looked at Su Xiaoran's face and said. "It's changed, and Chenxi also said that I got fat."

Su Xiaoran lowered her head and smiled lightly, she used to have a palm-sized melon seed face, but now she has a double chin.

"I'm not talking about this, I mean...... Your whole temperament has changed. Hua Yan smiled, picked up the coffee and tasted it slowly, without further talking.

Sometimes Su Xiaoran will also sigh that she is really far from what she used to be. In the past, she was more lazy and casual, as if she gave people the impression of being quiet and indifferent, but now, perhaps because of the advertising agency, she gradually forced herself out, and she liked her current self more.

"Don't talk about me, let's talk about you, it's a year to leave, and you don't contact us, Chenxi has always missed you, fortunately I just met you today, otherwise"

"You didn't just run into me, I've been waiting for you here for a long time."

Hua Yan interrupted Su Xiaoran's words and said seriously. Only then did Su Xiaoran realize that this did not seem to be a coincidence.

"What's the matter with me?"

"Do you know where I've been this year?" Hua Yan asked rhetorically, Su Xiaoran shook her head, Hua Yan laughed to herself, and muttered, "Also, how could you know, do you remember that I said that I was going to find my biological mother?" ”

Su Xiaoran nodded, not quite understanding what Hua Yan wanted to say.

Hua Yan leaned back, looked at Su Xiaoran, and said as if she was recounting the past: "There is no such person at all." ”

"What do you mean?" Su Xiaoran's heart was raised.

"I mean, there's no such thing as sisterhood, it's a lie."

"Huayan, you make it clear." Su Xiaoran can't calm down anymore, lies? How is it possible, the flower father himself has confessed, and the flower mother has indeed admitted the unbearable past.

Hua Yan's smile is more bitter than Coptis chinensis, Su Xiaoran has never seen such a flower face, what has he experienced in a year?

Later, every word Hua Yan said was deeply engraved in Su Xiaoran's heart, shocking her heart, she didn't know, it turned out that they had been living in lies all along, it turned out that the so-called facts were just one lie after another.

Hua Yan's biological mother is Hua Mu, three brothers and sisters, all born to Hua Mu, there is no so-called heart at all, only Rong'er.

It has to start a long time ago.

Rong'er and Hua Changjiang started a business together, loved each other, and envied others, and later, the company gradually improved, and before they had time to be happy, the two often started wars because they gathered less and left more. Later, it directly extended to the point of divorce.

But the two each hold half of the company's shares, just divorce like this, it is really troublesome, the growing vanity paralyzed Hua Changjiang's heart, in order to gain money and freedom, he did not hesitate to sell his wife who shared the joys and sorrows with him, he designed an accident, but unfortunately, Rong'er did not die, but lost part of her memory in that accident, at that time, she was just pregnant with Xiaomeng and Su Xiaoran.

Because she was afraid that the matter would be revealed, and in order to kill everything, Hua Changjiang managed to think of such a lie to stimulate her, wanting to make her completely crazy, so as to save a lot of trouble. It's a pity that Rong'er is not crazy, on the contrary, she planted hatred in her heart, she vowed to take revenge on her husband and 'sister' who betrayed her, because of the lessons from the past, so she instinctively rejected the relationship of sisters, so when she was left with twin sisters, she transferred her resentment towards her sister to her eldest daughter, and she abandoned her.

That's the bulk of the story.

The story is not finished yet, but Su Xiaoran is completely stunned. It turns out that this is the true story, it turns out that a year ago in that room isolated from the cold wind, the story of Father Hua's tears was actually fake, and he may just want to deceive and use himself.

How can it be so cruel?

Su Xiaoran didn't come to her senses for a long time, until, Hua Yan pushed her arm, reminding her that now was not the time to be sad.

"I heard that although she won the lawsuit, in fact, most of the property has already been successfully transferred by him, and the company she is leaving behind is just an empty shell."

"Who told you this?"

Su Xiaoran became vigilant, this year, she just wanted to forget the past and start over, and she didn't care about any changes in the Hua family at all.

"I bumped into him abroad, and I couldn't forgive him."

Hua Yan used these words to describe a kind of person called a father, and you can imagine how angry he was with him.

"Where is he now?" Su Xiaoran tightened her cheeks.

"I brought him back, the reason why I told you so much is to let you know in advance, I arranged a meeting for you, what do you think."

Hua Yan said a few words lightly, but it made Su Xiaoran seem to have seen that person, that face.

Coming out of the café, Su Xiaoran felt that she had experienced another unforgettable journey, and in the past two years, there have been too many changes to accept them all.

Hua Yan said that he had to go back to Hua as soon as possible and go back to see, the poor woman.

It wasn't until the time of separation that Su Xiaoran suddenly remembered Qiqi, she mentioned Qiqi's name to Huayan, she really wanted to say that Qiqi only ate and drank this year, and didn't do anything else, she didn't have a boyfriend again, but the words came to her mouth and swallowed again.

Hua Yan's reaction was as expected, he didn't make too many waves, but was too calm, he took a puff of cigarette, and only said that he would talk about it when he had time.

Besides, this is probably a tactful refusal, although Su Xiaoran is sad for Qiqi, she is helpless.

When I returned home again, Chenxi was already cooking dinner, Chenxi likes to cook recently, the first thing he does after work every day is to go to the vegetable market to buy vegetables, and then go home to cook, there is a kind of fairy man who has fallen to the mortal world.

As soon as Su Xiaoran opened the door, he smelled the fragrance coming from his nose, and Chenxi poked his head out of the kitchen, still wearing an apron around his body, "Why did you come back so late today?" ”

Is it late?

Su Xiaoran turned her head to look out the window, indeed, it was already dark.

She put her bag aside, changed her slippers, walked to the kitchen door, leaned on the edge of the door and looked at Chenxi like a family cook, both heartwarming and empty.

"Hua Yan is back."

Syllable.

The saucer in Chenxi's hand slipped off, but fortunately, even if he borrowed it, he didn't fall to the ground.

"He's back?" Chen Xi repeated Su Xiaoran's words again.

Su Xiaoran nodded, walked over, hugged him, and lazily slapped his sweaty shoulders with his face, "I saw him, he changed a lot, and he ......"

"And what?"

"And, he's brought back a secret."

Chen Xi unbuttoned her apron, helped Su Xiaoran to sit outside, and touched her hot cheeks: "What's wrong?" ”

"I don't know what to say, I'll know when you see him." Su Xiaoran felt powerless and irritable.

Chenxi guessed that it was a bad thing, but he didn't understand that the Hua's farce had come to an end a year ago, where was there anything bad?

"Where is he now? I'll go find him. Chen Xi wanted to go out immediately, but was stopped by Su Xiaoran: "Don't look for it, he went back to Hua's." ”

Chenxi was stunned, and after a few minutes, he came back to his senses, but he shouted and rushed into the kitchen.
