"Let's go, go up and have a look." After a moment, Fang Ruoning put away his thoughts.

Feng Xuejing usually looks like she is not afraid of the wind and the fire, but at this moment, she suddenly wrapped up, looking nervous and scared: "Ruoning, are you sure we have to go up?" This old house is in tatters, many households are unoccupied, and there must be ...... inside."

Before he finished speaking, his arm was pulled by Fang Ruoning and pulled up.

"What do you think in broad daylight! Besides, there are no ghosts in this world! ”

"If you're not afraid, why did you call me along!"

Fang Ruoning didn't answer, just walked carefully up the tattered staircase.

Feng Xuejing is right, many residents have moved out, there are still some broken furniture and sundries piled up in the narrow corridors, and some of the security doors still look relatively new, presumably the house has been renovated and rented out, or the elderly are left to live here.

The two went up to the sixth floor and stopped at the door of Zhao's house.

Feng Xue Jing looked left and right tremblingly, for fear that something like a mouse cockroach would come out, and seeing Fang Ruoning stunned there motionless, she frowned and cowered and said, "This look is that there has been no one for a long time, let's go quickly!" Fang Bingguo may be dizzy and has recognized the wrong person! Also Maybach, it's only been a few years, even if Zhao Linlang is alive, unless he wins the lottery, and it has to be the kind of lottery with tens of millions of dollars, how can he open a Maybach! Or a special driver?! No kidding! ”

Fang Ruoning ignored her, but walked closer to the door of Zhao's house, not knowing what he was observing.

Feng Xuejing saw her squatting down, and she also squatted down, and asked curiously, "What's wrong?" ”

"Xiao Jing, look, there are footprints on the ground, which are walking in the direction of the house." Fang Ruoning observed carefully and found clues.

Feng Xuejing stared and took a closer look, the cement floor at the door was covered with dust, and there was a relatively clear footprint on the dust, which looked like the footprints of a man wearing leather shoes, but this didn't mean anything, maybe it was left by someone else?

Fang Ruoning had already gotten up, took out his mobile phone and turned on the flashlight, observing the doorknob.

"What's wrong again?"

"The doorknob has been pinched, you see...... The ash here is gone. ”

The light in the corridor was relatively dim, and Fang Ruoning shone a flashlight on the doorknob and observed it carefully to see this subtle change.

Feng Xuejing only felt creepy now, and couldn't help but hold her shoulders with both hands: "Ruoning, let's go, what you said is too scary...... A person who has been dead for more than six years can suddenly appear? Is it possible that Zhao Linlang's parents are back? ”

Fang Ruoning didn't speak, but went upstairs again to take a look.

"Hey, what are you doing up there!" Feng Xuejing was scared and didn't dare to stand here alone, so she stopped her and followed upstairs.

Fang Ruoning went up to the seventh floor to take a look, the two families on the seventh floor didn't seem to be inhabited, and the Spring Festival couplets on both sides of the door had long been faded and tattered, and half of them were hanging obliquely.

"In this whole building, only the first to fifth floors are still sporadically inhabited, and generally speaking, those people should not come up. Therefore, the footprints in front of Zhao's house are even more strange. Fang Ruoning went downstairs while analyzing the mystery of the footprint.

Feng Xuejing became more and more creepy, "Ruoning, let's go down first, what you said here is getting more and more terrifying, I'm afraid!" ”

"Well, let's go down."

When passing in front of Zhao's house, Fang Ruoning stopped again, staring at the door panel thoughtfully.

Now it seems that she is almost certain that Fang Bingguo is not lying, but who is the person who returned to the Zhao family? What is it about being away for so many years and suddenly coming back?

"Oops, let's go! This damn place should be! Feng Xuejing went down a step of the stairs, and when she saw that she was still standing here stunned, she hurriedly dragged her away.

All the way downstairs, Fang Ruoning's heart was frantic and uneasy, confused with many suspense.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the two walked out of the corridor, an old lady came back with her grandson, and it seemed that she had just picked up her grandson from school.

"Huh? Xiao Ning ......, "The old lady is in her sixties, but her eyesight is not bad, and she recognized Fang Ruoning at once."

Fang Ruoning was stunned for a moment, stared at the old lady, and smiled: "Aunt Sun, after so many years, you still recognize me." ”

"Recognize, recognize! You're the prettiest girl in the neighborhood, and I'm impressed with you! That Aunt Sun smiled with a wrinkle on her face and praised.

Fang Ruoning smiled.

"Xiao Ning, you haven't been back for many years, and you haven't been back since Xiao Lang left."

met an acquaintance, Fang Ruoning wanted to inquire about something by the way, and it happened that Aunt Sun mentioned Lin Lang again, so she continued to ask: "Auntie, after Lin Lang's accident back then, when did Aunt Zhao move out?" Where did you move? Did you know? ”

Aunt Sun shook her head, "I don't know about this, so I ...... silently They moved away, almost three or four months after Xiao Lang left, and we all thought at the time that they must have lost their son too sad and didn't want to live in this sad place anymore, so they moved, right? They didn't mention it to their neighbors when they left, they didn't know about it, and no one knew where they had moved. ”

Fang Ruoning looked at Feng Xuejing, and the two looked at each other, both of them were a little complicated and deep.

"Have you seen them come back all these years?"

"No, they moved away, but it seems that the house was not sold, nor was it rented out, so it was left unattended."

"It's been left unattended, and no one has ever appeared again? What about yesterday? Did a man come yesterday and ride in a black car? ”

"Yesterday?" Aunt Sun thought for a while, "No...... I didn't see ......."

The little girl held by the aunt looked about the same age as Fang Yunxuan, probably just came back from kindergarten and was hungry, so she shook her grandmother's hand impatiently and began to lose her temper: "I'm so hungry...... I want to eat......"

Aunt Sun had no choice but to hurriedly coax the little girl, then looked at Fang Ruoning and said, "Either go and sit at home?" The houses in this old community are very dilapidated, and the young people have bought high-rise western-style buildings and moved away, and the rest are some old people, or outsiders who come to work and can't afford to rent a western-style building, every day...... It's deserted, and there's no one to talk to. ”

Fang Ruoning had already gone up to the top floor just now to take a look, and it was true that there were not a few families left in a building, which sounded desolate.

But Feng Xue quietly pulled her, obviously in a hurry to leave, she had to smile politely: "Aunt Sun, I still have something to do, so I won't go to your house to disturb, you can quickly take the child back to get her food." ”

When Aunt Sun saw them turn around and walk out, she didn't stay any longer, but just politely shouted: "Come and have fun when you have time in the future!" ”

"Okay, thank you, Aunt Sun."

The two got into the car and drove away from the dilapidated neighborhood.

Starbucks, Fang Ruoning pondered for a long time, and couldn't figure out what was going on.

Feng Xuejing drank a cup of sweet and greasy hot cocoa, and then she felt that the whole person was relaxed, and when she saw that her friend didn't move the coffee in front of her, she sat down with a sad face, she sat up a little more, and knocked on the table with her hand.

"Do you really think that Zhao Linlang is not dead and is back, right? The old lady also said just now that Zhao Linlang did have an accident, and the Zhao family's parents were very sad, so they moved out of the community. And people also said that no one came back yesterday, maybe Fang Bingguo recognized the wrong person, it's been so many years, where does he remember what Zhao Linlang looks like? It has been more than ten years since you went abroad, even if Zhao Linlang is still alive, how much has a person's appearance changed in the past ten years? ”

Fang Ruoning didn't speak, she knew that her friend's words were reasonable, and the current piecemeal evidence alone was not enough to prove that a person who had been dead for more than six years was still alive in the world.

However, her instincts told her that something was wrong.

Fang Bingguo didn't need to be so panicked, and there was indeed a man's footprint towards the house at the dusty door of the Zhao family, as well as the marks on the doorknob - and, on the day she returned to China, the man she saw with her own eyes was very similar to Lin Lang.

It's all so weird!

The mobile phone rang, she came back to her senses, looked at it was Huo Lingxiao's call, and picked it up.

"Hello?"

"Where have you been?"

"You're home?"

"Hmm."

"I'll have coffee outside with Xiao Jing, and I'll be back later."

"You're outside?" Huo Lingxiao asked casually, and suddenly suggested, "Or I'll go to you and eat out at night?" ”

Fang Ruoning was slightly stunned, and raised his eyes to look at his friend: "He said that we would eat together in the evening, are you free?" ”

Feng Xue glanced at her, "I don't make light bulbs, and I am fed dog food by the two of you." ”

"......" Fang Ruoning pursed her lips helplessly and said into her mobile phone, "Miss Feng refuses to appreciate her face." ”

On the phone, the man smiled lowly, "Okay, I'll wait for you to come back at home, and Xuan Xuan will also pick it up, you don't have to worry about it." ”

"Okay."

After hanging up the phone, before Fang Ruoning could speak, Feng Xuejing glared at her again and reminded: "I think this matter is over!" Don't say that Zhao Linlang can't live, take 10,000 steps back and say-even if he lives, what do you want? You are already married to Huo Lingxiao, people love you so much, and you are obedient, not to mention that you still have Xuan Xuan - so, I don't think you should think about this matter anymore, it may be all kinds of coincidences, you met a man who looks like Zhao Linlang, that's all! ”

From the moment she received Fang Bingguo's call, Fang Ruoning's whole person was a little stunned, and then she received a call from Huo Lingxiao, which made her suddenly wake up from that kind of demonic shock.

After listening to her best friend's reminder, she ordered, took a sip of coffee: "I know, I won't mention this to Huo Lingxiao until I have conclusive evidence." ”

"Oh my God......" Feng Xuejing raised her hand helplessly when she heard this, a little crazy, "Ruoning, please wake up!" What conclusive evidence? It's just nothing! ”

Fang Ruoning didn't speak, a voice in her heart told her that this was not nothing.

If it is possible, she still wants to investigate clearly, of course, whether Zhao Linlang is still alive or not, she knows very well who the man she loves now.

She is now Huo Lingxiao's wife, Mrs. Huo, the man she loves is also Huo Lingxiao, they also have a smart and sensible son, they are a happy family of three.

Nothing can separate them.

When I got home, I saw that Huo Lingxiao had already taken a shower and changed into home clothes, and was sitting on the ground with his son playing with robots.

"Coming back?"

"Hmm."

Fang Ruoning changed his shoes and walked into the living room, and sat down on the sofa, a little dazed.

Huo Lingxiao got up from the carpet, sat down beside her, kissed her on the side of the face, and asked softly in a low voice, "What's wrong?" A listless look. ”

The two of them have become accustomed to affection and affection anytime and anywhere, even Fang Yunxuan has become accustomed to turning a blind eye, Fang Ruoning has nothing to be awkward about now, so he leaned into his arms and said lazily: "It's boring to be at home every day, it's too boring, I want to find a job." ”

Huo Lingxiao looked down at her, and his tone was as gentle as usual, "Then what do you want to do?" Or, go to Zhiyuan Real Estate to be the boss? ”

"If I don't go, I don't want to deal with Xu Meihui and those people."

"I heard that the Xu family is now a lot more convergent, and the project developed by Zhiyuan Real Estate is now going very well, and more fortunately, after the year the Education Bureau just issued a document, a vacant land near the commercial street, to build an experimental primary school, this policy will drive the development of that piece, it is said that the recent tepid community transactions have grown rapidly, so, when the commercial street is completed and opened, the flow of people should be good."

"Really?" Fang Ruoning was taken aback and sat up from his arms, "Heh, Fang Bingguo is not happy this time!" ”

"Perhaps, but he shouldn't be the happiest person."

"Who's that?"

Huo Lingxiao pinched the bridge of her nose dotingly, "Who do you say?" In the future, Mrs. Huo will become a little rich woman, and my son and I will have to rely on you to live. ”

Fang Ruoning frowned and was stunned, "You mean, I am the one who benefits the most?" ”

"Hmm."

"How is that possible? Before we left, didn't you say that Zhiyuan Real Estate was acquired under the name of Huo's? ”

"Fool! Didn't I say that to put you at ease? The 400 million invested in Zhiyuan Real Estate was invested in my personal reputation from the beginning, and I wanted to give you a gift at that time, but you didn't accept it, so I put it on hold again. Later, didn't you sign an agreement from Fang Bingguo and become the actual controller of Zhiyuan? It's hard for you to accept this gift, how can I put it under Huo's name again? When we left, I hired a professional manager to take care of Zhiyuan Real Estate, which had nothing to do with Huo's. ”

Oh, my God......

Fang Ruoning was surprised, she didn't expect that she was going to become a rich woman inexplicably?

No wonder, my aunt and Fang Bingguo still call her from time to time, caring and chatting, it turns out that they all know that Zhiyuan Real Estate is actually in her hands?

"Okay, let's eat first, I have to go to the hospital after eating."

Fang Ruoning followed him up and walked to the restaurant, and when he heard this, he asked with concern, "How is the old man?" It's been more than a week. ”
