Chapter VII Conviction

That year, Yan Yi's father failed in business investment and owed huge debts, and his mother was afraid that her son would be implicated, so she took him out of K City overnight and came to the most inconspicuous town in S City. There he met Qin Suyi, a neighbor girl who lived opposite his door, Su Yi was well-behaved, sensible, and understanding, in addition to taking care of her mother who was sick in bed, she would often help the people who lived together in the community, so the residents in the community basically knew this enthusiastic girl. After a long time, they naturally became friends who were familiar with each other and took care of each other.

That day, Junyi came home from school and saw the door of Su Yi's house open, so he walked in gently.

"Roar~, what are you doing?" Junyi scared Su Yi from behind.

"Shh~, my mom is resting in the room, don't wake my mom up." Su Yi said.

"Oh, what's going on?" Junyi picked up the rag doll in the bamboo frame and said.

"I'm helping, I want to help my mother do all this, wait for the manufacturer to collect it, then I can get the money." Su Yi put down the needle in her hand and whispered.

"Oh . . . Do you want me to help? ”

"Will you?"

"No, you can teach me, two people are more efficient than one." Saying that, Junyi also picked up a rag doll.

"Okay, I'll teach you, just like this, stretch the ragdoll's belly open, and then ......"

"How much can you earn?" Junyi's clumsy hand asked as he shoved cotton into the doll's belly little by little.

"Dozens of dollars."

"That's so little."

"That's a lot, enough for a week's worth of living."

If this was before Junyi, he would definitely be able to give her a lot of pocket money, but now he can't even protect himself, how can he help others, Junyi lowered his head helplessly and didn't speak.

After a while, "By the way, how did you do on your last monthly exam?" ”

"Don't mention it, I don't think I'm a piece of reading material, like you." Su Yi lowered her brows and said helplessly.

"It's not that you're bad at studying, you're just spending all your time on your mother and dealing with the problems at home." Junyi lowered his head and thought for a moment and said, "Otherwise, I'll make up for your homework." ”

"Really?" Su Yi said happily.

"That's right, don't be too grateful to me, I just can't stand my neighbor's poor grades."

Yan Yi has been checking about Yijian's origin these days, he has rummaged through the company's personnel records, and asked friends to help bring up Yijian's information files in Jiying University and Yuqing University, but he still hasn't found any clues that Yijian is her, but Yan Yi is sure that Yijian's identity is indeed doubtful, because there are many blanks in Yijian's school files, including her parents' surnames, home addresses, contact information, etc. And even Ms. Lin's contact number is foreign, Yan Yi tried to get through that number, but the other party prompted that it was no longer in the service area. Although there was no evidence, Yan Yi's intuition told him that Yijian must be the girl he was looking for, because their words and deeds were too similar.

On a Saturday night, a Caesar bar in the city center.

"Vice President Yan, why are you interested in inviting me to the bar for a drink today?" Zi Chu asked loudly mocking Yan Yi.

Yan Yi held a cup in his hand and said thoughtfully: "I have caused you a lot of trouble because of work in the past few days, so I specially come to thank you." ”

"Vice President Yan is polite, these are all things I should do, and I haven't helped you much, so don't be polite to me." Zichu raised his voice and said.

"Come, for our better cooperation work in the future, do." Yan Yi raised his glass and said.

"Thank you, Mr. Yan."

In the bar, the DJ played rock songs, dynamically adjusted the atmosphere, young men and women danced on the dance floor, the gray neon lights, the smell of wine in the air, smoked people slightly drunk, Zichu was used to drinking coffee, and today suddenly changed to drinking, some are not used to it, and his face looks even redder under the illumination of the light.

"Vice President Yan, I've been in Kaffa Town for so many years, and no one... than me.. Learn better.. Café thing.. What's going on with you in the future... Just look for me... Just look for me. Zi Chu said drunkly.

"I know." Yan Yi patted Zichu's shoulder and continued: "By the way, there is something I want to ask you for help?" ”

"Ahh What the... Things, you just say.." Zichu rubbed his eyes.

"Do you know Yijian?"

"Jane?"

"She's been working at your café for about a year, so she should know a little bit about it." Yan Yi asked further.

"Jane . . . It's hard to say.. She never mentions herself, and even if she does, it's just a few words, a secret, so I really don't know..."

"Don't you even know where she lives or who is in the family?" Yan Yi stared at Zi Chu sincerely and said.

"It's... I only know that her mother seems to have died, a few years ago, and I only found out by overhearing the conversation between Yijian and Xiyu, Yijian and Xiyu are the best friends, and Xiyu should know more than me. Zichu tried to sober up and said to himself.

"Hey.. Why do you suddenly want to ask about Yijian? ”

"Oh, it's nothing, it's just that a few days ago, I wanted to know more about the coffee making process, so I specially invited Yijian to teach me, so I want to give a gift to show my gratitude these days, but I don't know much about her, so I want to ask you first." Yan Yi replied calmly.

"Oh... I understand. ”

Early the next morning, Yan Yi came to the café and knew that Xi Yu would be on duty at the café today, so he stood at the door and waited for Xi Yu.

"Xiyu.." Yan Yi looked at Xi Yu who came over with his head bowed and called.

Xi Yu heard someone calling her from a distance, raised her head to look around for the source of the sound, and saw Yan Yi standing across the road waving to her.

"Vice President Yan, why are you standing here?" Xiyu asked puzzledly, isn't it a weekend?

"I... I'd like to talk to you. ”

"And me..? Chat..? Xiyu pointed his finger at himself and said in surprise.

"Yes, that's you, so be it, I'll invite you to breakfast." Yan Yi said sincerely.

"Alright then, let's go to that breakfast shop." Xiyu pointed to the breakfast shop opposite.

"Xiyu, I heard that in the café, you have the best relationship with Yijian?" Yan Yi pretended to be unintentional and asked.

"Yes, we are not only good friends at work, but also the best friends in life, but who do you listen to?" Xiyu said with a fritter in his mouth.

"Store Manager Chen." Yan Yi looked at Xi Yu's oil-stained lips, handed over a tissue and said.

"Oh, anyway, the whole café knows about our good things, hee-hee." Xiyu said with a shrug of indifference.

"That.. That's how you two met? ”

"The two of us are classmates, classmates in high school and college."

"So, you know her well, huh?"

"When... But no, why do you ask? Xiyu suddenly woke up and asked.

"Oh, no, I care about the staff." Yan Yi scratched his head and said.

"Oh, care... Employees.." Xi Yu nodded with a slight feeling and said.

"Don't get me wrong, I just want to thank you for helping me for so many days, and I don't know in what way, so I want to get to know her before making a decision." Yan Yi explained weakly.

"Oh, that's right."

"Then you don't know anything about her?"

"Maybe I know a little bit more than anyone else.." Xi Yu thought deeply, Yi Jian rarely mentioned her previous things, maybe she didn't want to mention it, although Xi Yu knew a little about Yi Jian's pitiful life experience, but she really didn't know the specifics.

"Do you know what other family she has?"

"No, her father died in an accident when she was young, and even her mother's relatives fell ill and died a few years ago."

"A few years ago? What is the disease? Yan Yi asked a little urgently.

"I don't know the specifics, it was about six or seven years ago." Xi Yu recalled.

"Then where did she live before, and how did she end up in K City?"

Xiyu suddenly remembered that Yijian was very reluctant to let others know about her past, and even she couldn't ask, so she began to feel a little uneasy, and didn't want to answer Yan Yi's question anymore.

"I'm full, I still have to go to work, let's go first." Xiyu got up to leave.

"I heard that she didn't use the name An Yijian before, right?" Yan Yi deliberately shouted at Xi Yu's departing back.

"No way, who did you listen to, no one else knows about this except me." Xi Yu walked back a little angrily and walked in front of Yan Yi.

"So to say. . . It's true. ”

Xi Yu suddenly realized that he had been fooled, and hurriedly lowered his head and walked out of the breakfast room and walked towards the café. What to do, what to do, what to do, Jane must hate me to death, why do you say I'm so stupid, you can say it, bah, bah, bah...

All this is really true, she must be Su Yi, the person he has been looking for for so many years, he finally found her, Yan Yi sat there stupidly, his eyes were a little red.

Yan Yi drove on the way back to her apartment, thinking about how she lived alone since her mother died, why she came to the city, and changed her name, she .....

One day six years ago, Junyi got out of school as usual and slowly walked back to the Ziyuan community, thinking in his mind that she hadn't seen Su Yi for a few days, where had she gone. Seeing that Su Yi had been running around the hospital and school some time ago, she couldn't help but feel a little sorry for her, but she was angry that she couldn't help, so she thought about going to the hospital to see Su Yi's mother after resting first.

Junyi walked into the community and saw Grandma Zhang, who lived downstairs under him, playing in the yard with her grandson, and stepped forward to say hello.

"Grandma Zhang, have you seen Su Yi recently?" Junyi asked as he teased the child and looked up.

"Don't you know, her mother passed away two days ago, so today should be the day of the burial." Grandma Zhang thought for a moment and replied.

"What?" Junyi froze, unable to believe what he had just heard.

"Grandma Zhang, where is the burial place?" Junyi asked eagerly.

"It seems to be at Nanshan Cemetery."

Before Grandma Zhang could finish speaking, Junyi threw away her schoolbag and ran in the direction of the cemetery.

Junyi ran to Nanshan Cemetery, looked around for Su Yi's shadow, and finally found Su Yi in front of a tombstone. Su Yi knelt alone in front of the tombstone, looking haggard, haggard and distressing. She didn't cry, just silently looked at the photo of her mother on the tombstone, maybe this is the most painful performance, the most painful thing is not crying, but the pain is so painful that she can't even cry, Junyi is very sad.

Junyi quietly walked behind Su Yi, stood silently with her, and after a long time, he called softly: "Su Yi, let's go home." Su Yi heard Junyi's voice, slowly turned her head, looked at Junyi with red and swollen eyes, and said, "I don't want to go home." ”

"Okay, then I'll be here with you." Junyi stepped forward and buried her head in her chest.
