The driver of the car was the first to return to the car. The taxi driver saw a big beautiful woman apologizing to him in a low voice, and he was embarrassed to care about it anymore, so he said in a rough voice, "You will have long eyes when you walk in the future", and then got in the car and left.

"I'm sorry you fell." Qiao Yan apologized to Zhang Tianbao again.

Zhang Tianbao smiled and said that it doesn't matter, but you must see the traffic lights clearly when crossing the road in the future, and don't cross the road with your life anymore.

Qiao Yan's face was full of embarrassment, and when she walked later, Zhang Tianbao paid attention to her everywhere, and grabbed her arm whenever a car came over. Qiao Yan was very reluctant to touch her, but because the other party was out of concern for her, she had to endure it silently.

After arriving at the destination, Qiao Yan realized that it was actually the special teahouse she had been to with Yu Chihong, located in the garden of the former residence of the celebrity. Last time, it was night, and all the red lanterns were lit up. And this time during the day, I saw a different scene, the pavilions and pavilions in the garden, the mountains and forests of the pond island, the small bridges and flowing water, the charm of the Jiangnan garden. Away from the hustle and bustle of the city, there is no fun.

Zhang Tianbao has booked a box in advance. Sitting on the couch covered with satin, pushing open the antique window, you can see a stage below, a clear pond, and a curved bridge. There is a special performance of Nanyin on the stage, silk and bamboo are singing, and graceful women are dancing on the stage, singing in the festival, "Clumsy Time", "Hearing Du Guan", "Secretly Thinking of You", ...... Hundreds of turns, thousands of times, the aftermath lingers. The ancient and modern Qingqu in front of the imperial court, the quintessence of the southern sound into the fairyland. If you give the pipa Xiao strings, the millennium is wonderful. The audience in front of the stage listened very intoxicated, and from time to time they beat the beat with their hands and bowed their heads in approval.

Before the meal, a waitress dressed in a cheongsam made a pot of tea for them. Qiao Yan kept staring at the stage outside the window, and after the waitress left, Zhang Tianbao picked up a cup of tea and handed it to Qiao Yan. Qiao Yan held the teacup tightly, folded her legs, and put the crystal clear teacup on her lap. Her delicate fingers, almost translucent, and the green tea in the glass, through the cup, reflected her fingers pale green, like jade, like jade. She took a sip of tea and listened to the thousand-year-old music wafting from the stage.

On a cloudy day, the indoor light was dim, Zhang Tianbao stood up and turned on all the lights in the room. Under the light, Qiao Yan sat against the window, her coat was taken off and hung on the hanger, wearing only a lilac woolen sweater with delicate crochet flowers on her clothes. With a round neck underwear, romantic colors, delicate, mysterious and not too high-profile, very much in line with her own temperament.

Zhang Tianbao admired in his heart, such a delicate facial contour, elegant dress and posture, it really looked like a painting. The first dish was served, Qiao Yan still maintained the same posture, the cup of tea Yingying was held in her hand, and those surging thoughts were surging slowly, slowly, overflowing with the fragrance of tea.

"Are you going to sit there and wander around the world all the time without eating?" Zhang Tianbao couldn't help but speak.

Qiao Yan turned around very slowly. "I'm sorry." Her eyes were misty, "When I remembered some things from the past, my heart became very uneasy. ”

"You've said 'I'm sorry' countless times today, and my ears are almost calloused." Zhang Tianbao joked with a smile.

Qiao Yan lowered her head in shame, holding the teacup tightly with both hands, a little dazed.

"I'm worried that you'll crush the cups, the cutlery here is expensive, and you're going to lose money." Zhang Tianbao joked again.

This joke seemed to be contagious, and as soon as the eyes of the two made contact, Qiao Yan burst out laughing.

Zhang Tianbao's mouth also burst into laughter. "Are you feeling better?"

"Much better, thank you." Qiao Yan sincerely thanked her. Zhang Tianbao's warm smile has a kind of power to calm people's hearts, and her mood is not as depressed as before.

Zhang Tianbao cleared his throat and asked, "Do you want to recover all the memories of those 12 hours?" ”

Qiao Yan hesitated in her heart, but her eyes were very firm. "Hope!"

"But...... You look like this......" Zhang Tianbao was a little worried.

"It's okay." Qiao Yan expressed her determination, "Since you have decided to accept hypnosis, you must persevere to the end."

Zhang Tianbao nodded encouragingly. "It can't be done overnight, it takes a process, take your time."

"I have a request." Qiao Yan spoke earnestly.

"Please." Although the pair of eyes behind Zhang Tianbao's lenses are sharp, they are also gentle.

"I'm looking for you about hypnosis, don't tell Yu Chihong for the time being." Qiao Yan unconsciously clenched the teacup with both hands, "I don't want him to worry about me, when the right time comes, I will tell him myself." ”

Zhang Tianbao said clearly and with a smile: "Even if you don't confess, I won't take the initiative to tell him." Doctors have an inherently duty of confidentiality for their patients. ”

Qiao Yan sighed lightly, she decided to wait for Wei Chihong to be discharged from the hospital after his injury, and talk to him openly and honestly, no matter how cruel the truth is, she must face it, and escaping is not the solution after all.

During the meal, Qiao Yan ate tastelessly, but fortunately, Zhang Tianbao smiled and smiled, which made people feel like a spring breeze, and somewhat dispelled some of the haze that had accumulated in her heart. He is well-informed and knowledgeable, Qiao Yan was impressed by his unique insights in psychology, and she also understood why Wei Chihong worshipped Zhang Tianbao as a teacher, he is indeed a good teacher and good friend who can teach and help people.

On weekends, Qiao Yan tried her best to spend time in the hospital to accompany Wei Chihong. The two of them were as intimate as ever, carefully avoiding topics that touched on the pain in their hearts, but they were often immersed in their own unknown realms, and whenever this happened, the room was unusually silent, and this silence was annoying, with the smell of impending wind and rain, which was suffocating and nerve-wracking.

The undercurrents that had been surging for so long gushed out on Sunday evening. Qiao Yan went back to Qiao's Mansion for dinner, and heard Zhuo Zhengqin say that Qiao Ran went to church activities and did not come back for dinner. But before the meal, Qiao Yan received a text message from her mobile phone with a photo attached. The text message reads, "At half past 10 tonight, on the Rainbow Bridge in Green State Park, if you want your sister to live, come alone." In the photo, Qiao Ran is curled up on the ground with his eyes closed.

Qiao Yan was terrified, and her heart almost jumped out of her chest. The text message beep rang again, and a new message came: If you notify the other people in the Public Security Bureau, I will kill your sister immediately, and your every move is under my surveillance. There are multiple photos attached to the text message, and each photo shows Qiao Yan's figure, which was secretly taken when she was in the Public Security Bureau, some in the office of the Special Investigation Team, some in the Forensic Science and Technology Laboratory, and other different places. That person is inside the Public Security Bureau, and he really monitors her every move!

Frightened and frightened, she walked up the stairs unsteadily and rushed into Qiao Ran's room. The room was neatly tidy and there was nothing out of the ordinary. She searched around, and in the drawer of her desk, she found a letter, on which was the text "Qiao Ran personally opened" cut out with newspaper words, and the content on the letter paper was also cut with newspaper words. "It was the police who killed your father", just nine words, shocking.

The envelope is not postmarked and is not mailed through the post office. She put the letter back in the drawer and hid it, went downstairs into the kitchen, and forcibly asked Aunt Ah Xiu if anyone came to the house to find Qiao Ran today. Aunt Ah Xiu shook her head and said no, Qiao Ran has been at home since she got up in the morning and didn't go out until the afternoon.

"Has anyone come to deliver a letter to Qiao Ran?" Qiao Yan asked again.

"There is a letter, but it is in the mailbox, it should be sent by the postman, I picked it up with the evening newspaper in the afternoon, and I will give it to Qiao Ran." Aunt Ah Xiu didn't notice the unusual thing about the letter, and looked at Qiao Yan a little strangely, "Why did you suddenly ask about the letter?" ”

"It's nothing, I'm just asking." Qiao Yan told not to tell Zhuo Yiqin, lest she be suspicious again.

Aunt Xiu agreed and continued to be busy.

While having dinner, someone sent Qiao Yan a mobile phone video. Qiao Yan hurriedly got up and walked to the side, avoiding Zhuo Yiqin and Aunt A Xiu. In the video, Qiao Ran was locked in a closed dark room, screaming and struggling like a trapped beast. "Anyone, help me!" She kept banging on the door until she was exhausted, and she fell to the ground, crying and prostrating.

Qiao Yan's heart was tight, convulsive, and terrible churning pain.

Although Qiao Yan tried her best to hide her uneasiness and panic, Zhuo Zhenqin still saw her strangeness. When she was about to go out at night, she was stopped by Zhuo Yiqin.

Zhuo Yiqin stared at Qiao Yan. "Tell me honestly, are you still with that Wei Chihong, tricking me into working overtime to solve the case, but in fact, you are dating him and spending the night outside?"

Qiao Yan's whole body shook violently, and her eyes immediately became hot and faint. "Mom!" Her tone became excited, "I'm already anxious about the case, and you still doubt me like this." ”

Qiao Yan has always been docile at home, and rarely speaks loudly, Zhuo Zhenqin vibrated in her injured eyes, and couldn't help but soften her voice: "I just remind you not to entangle with the enemy anymore." Can you consider changing jobs, after all, he is your boss, in the same unit, look up and don't look down......"

"I wouldn't consider changing jobs, there was no need for that. What to do, I know ...... in my own heart" Qiao Yan couldn't go on, her heart was beating fast, and she walked out in confusion.

When I walked to the door of the living room, I remembered that Qiao Ran's matter couldn't be known to Zhuo Yiqin at present, otherwise there would be chaos. "Mom, I forgot to tell you, Qiao Ran called me just now." She quickly made up a reason, "She asked me to tell you that the church activities will last for two days, and there will be a lot of things, and she will not come back tonight to live with the parishioners." ”
