Huo Lingxiao shook his head slightly, his face was heavy, "It's still the same, I haven't woken up." ”

Fang Ruoning listened to his tone, saw the tiredness between his eyebrows, and held his hand and rubbed it distressedly: "The old man must still be fighting, I believe he will wake up." ”

To tell the truth, an elderly man in his eighties suddenly had a stroke, which was originally an extremely dangerous thing, that is, the Huo family has strong financial resources and can afford it, so they have been consuming it in the ICU, and it is probably natural to let ordinary families go.

Seeing that she was frowning, Huo Lingxiao held her hand again, smiled slightly on her thin lips, and comforted: "Don't worry, I'm fine." Birth, old age, sickness and death are all laws of nature, and all we can do is not give up when the old man still has a breath, hoping that he can feel the reluctance of his family and survive. ”

"Well, I'm sure it will!"

Although the illness of Old Man Huo has cast a shadow over the Huo family, it has indirectly alleviated the deadlocked relationship between Huo Lingxiao and his family.

Since coming back, Huo Lingxiao has been by the old man's side day and night, following the special care to learn how to care for bedridden patients, to be honest, with the Huo family's family background, where is the turn of the eldest son and grandson to do this kind of thing himself, but Huo Lingxiao just insists on doing it himself, probably with a sense of guilt in his heart, and wants to compensate the old man.

This scene was naturally seen by Huo Zhengzhao and Mrs. Huo, in the end, it was their own son, even if they were angry to death before, but at this time, they still forgave their son in their hearts.

Occasionally, Mrs. Huo would come to persuade him to go home to rest and spend time with the children.

Huo Lingxiao could feel this change, but now everyone's thoughts and attention were on the old man, and he had no time to take care of it for the time being.

Fang Ruoning originally planned to return to the workplace, but since he found the man who looked like Zhao Linlang, he didn't have the heart to think about work in the past few days, and only wanted to investigate this matter clearly.

It just so happened that while Huo Lingxiao was guarding the hospital every day, she could also do this secretly without being discovered.

However, five or six years have passed since the incident, and it is not easy to investigate, and in order to avoid being discovered by Huo Lingxiao, she can only entrust others again, and after thinking about it, there is only one person who can help.

called Chu Junzhong, and the other party made an appointment to meet without saying a word.

By the time she passed, Chu Junzhong was already sitting elegantly, drinking coffee while still flipping through the file.

"Coming?" Looking up and seeing the beautiful woman coming quickly, Chu Junzhong smiled slightly and put away the file.

Fang Ruoning sat down, looked at him and said apologetically, "Are you very busy?" I'm interrupting your work, right? ”

"No, no, no, I was nearby when you called me, and I had just met a client, so I came over quickly, knowing that you didn't arrive so quickly, I flipped through the file by the way." Chu Jun explained gracefully, and then asked, "When did you come back?" I thought you would have to go out for a year and a half. ”

Fang Ruoning shook his head and sighed, "Originally, it was true that he didn't come back so soon, but the old man of the Huo family suddenly suffered a stroke, and as the eldest son and grandson, he should naturally come back." ”

"Oh, I see."

Fang Ruoning also knew Chu Junzhong's character, and he was definitely not the kind of gossip and long-tongued woman, so he was relieved to tell him the truth.

Seeing her push over a brocade box, Chu Junzhong frowned slightly, "What is this?" ”

Fang Ruoning withdrew his hand and smiled embarrassedly, "The wedding gift you gave me is too valuable, this small gift is a return gift, you must accept it." ”

Since yesterday she decided to ask Chu Junzhong for help, she thought of this, so she went to the boutique to choose this pair of cufflinks, which is a very low-key luxury brand, which is very in line with Chu Junzhong's temperament and identity.

Chu Junzhong raised his eyebrows lightly and took it to open it.

"It's not like the wedding gift you gave me, but I thank you for my heart." Seeing that he took out the pair of cufflinks and looked left and right with interest, Fang Ruoning emphasized it again.

The man shook his head slightly, "Hey...... You have to be so clear with me? ”

"No, that's not what it means, even if you are abroad, if you receive a gift from someone else, you should return the gift in a reasonable way."

"Okay, the gift is exquisite, I like it very much, and I accept it."

"If you like it."

The coffee came, and after Fang Ruoning thanked him elegantly, he picked up the spoon and slowly stirred the coffee.

Chu Jun looked at her without a trace, and it could be seen that she and Huo Lingxiao lived a very happy life after marriage, and her entire eyebrows and eyes were filled with a sense of serenity and contentment, which made her already beautiful and moving facial features exude a quiet and warm temperament.

It is said that women are flowers, and men are the soil that supports women. When you meet a good man, the flower of a woman will bloom more and more delicately, and the more charming it will be, and if you meet a bad man, the flower will soon slowly wither and wither.

Chu Jun was melancholy in the center at the same time, but he was really happy for her, although this flower did not bloom on his own soil, but he could appreciate this delicate and beautiful flower as a bystander, which was also a different kind of happiness.

"You specifically asked me out, just to return the gift?"

"No......" Fang Ruoning took a shallow sip of coffee, put down the white porcelain cup, and with a faint embarrassment between his eyebrows, he hesitated before raising his eyes to look at the man opposite, "Actually...... I'm looking for you because I want you to help me with something. ”

"What's the matter?" Chu Junzhong asked very dryly, he would be very happy to help her.

"This matter ......" Fang Ruoning thought that his girlfriend's attitude towards this matter was secretive, and now to mention such an unbelievable thing to a more rational and knowledgeable person, he must also feel that it is a fantasy.

However, she couldn't think of anyone else to do it.

She has been abroad for too many years, and she has no friends in China except Feng Xuejing, and Wei Yunche is working for the Huo family, so she definitely can't ask him for help. After thinking about it, only Chu Junzhong, and only he had the ability to investigate this matter, and he could hide it from Huo Lingxiao seamlessly.

"Ruoning, what are you asking me to help me with? Seeing you so embarrassed, is it possible...... Mr. Huo's to you—"

"No, no, no......" Seeing that he had misunderstood, Fang Ruoning hurriedly waved his hand and explained awkwardly, "It's none of his business, it's just ...... I'm afraid that if I say it, you'll think I'm insane. ”

Chu Junzhong became more and more confused when he listened, "What the hell is going on?" Let's hear it. ”

"That's right." Fang Ruoning licked her lips helplessly, sat forward a little more, and unconsciously lowered her voice, "On the day we returned home, I was at the airport ......"

In order to facilitate Chu Junzhong's investigation, she started from meeting a man who looked like Zhao Linlang at the airport on the day she returned to China, including those things in the old house, as well as some details of Zhao Linlang's unexpected death.

Sure enough, Chu Junzhong listened, and his whole face changed, the kind of suspicious, weird, confused, confused, as well as serious and nervous, made Fang Ruoning feel like he was telling a ghost story.

"I've been investigating secretly these days, but I haven't found anything, I think the only place where I can find clues may be on the police record, if there is a relationship with Huo Lingxiao, maybe it will not be difficult to continue the investigation, but this matter, I don't want him to know for the time being, you should be able to understand...... So, I want to think about it, I can only look for you, I want to see if you know anyone, and I can investigate the whole detailed process of the accident back then. ”

After listening to this, Chu Junzhong asked directly: "In case the results of the investigation, the accident back then was wrong, or someone deliberately arranged it, and your childhood sweetheart, Mr. Zhao, is still alive and did come back, then what should you do?" ”

Fang Ruoning was stunned, and goosebumps crawled up densely all over his body.

It has been half a month since this matter was discovered, and the only person who knows about it besides her is Feng Xuejing, but Feng Xuejing has always felt that she was thinking too much and making a mistake, or it was just a coincidence.

She thought that Chu Junzhong would not believe it, but people actually -

Suppressing the shiver that ran across her spine, she looked at the man opposite her with a little surprise, "Junzhong, do you believe what I'm saying?" You don't think I'm hallucinating, or—"

"I believe in you." Before she could finish speaking, the man interrupted firmly, looked at her and said, "I understand you, you are not the kind of person who is emotionally inflexible, maybe we are also lawyers who are sensitive to their profession, after listening to what you said, I also seriously doubt that Zhao Linlang is still alive." ”

"Really?!" Fang Ruoning was very excited, as if he had finally found his soulmate, and his hands were a little at a loss, "I'm ...... I really, I can't say how I feel, but I just don't think it's like I'm thinking too much, and besides, even if I'm wrong, my father can't see the wrong person at the same time, so I really think ......"

"Okay, okay, don't get excited, I understand your feelings." Chu Junzhong looked at her excited and irrepressible appearance, and his eyes crossed a complicated light.

"Ruoning, to be honest, I believe you understand you on the one hand, but on the other hand, I don't think it's wise for you to investigate this matter."

She was stunned and looked at the man a little confused.

"Think about it, if Zhao Linlang is really alive, then why didn't he come back to you after so many years? Even if he had something unspeakable back then, but after so many years, since he lived so well, why didn't he come back to you? He married a foreign woman, and he has soared, forgive me for seeing too much of the dark side of human nature over the years as a lawyer - I really suspect that he is the mastermind of that accident, and his purpose is probably to get rid of you, and at the same time change to another identity, maybe glamorous, or something else, and then, start a new life. Think about it first, if the facts come out to be very embarrassing, can you accept it? ”

Fang Ruoning was stunned, and her delicate and beautiful facial features were also covered with a layer of ashes.
