"It's terrible, if only I had kept him. Now you have to do everything you can to find the end of the season! If you can't find him within a year, you'll die! Xia Hua said sternly.

"Do you know where he is?" Bai Jing asked.

"I'll go with you to him, and I'll ask my men to collect more information about him." Xia Hua said in a firm tone.

"I'm glad you can help find me, but I'm going to sit at the Jianyang base in addition to looking for him." Naturally, there was no problem for her to go to Bai Jing together, but seeing that Jiang Yiming hated Zhong Youxi so much, it was still necessary for her to tell her in advance.

"Guan Yangxi?" Xia Hua asked.

"It's him."

"Hehe~ It's better if it's him, I haven't played with him for a long time." When Xia Hua heard that it was Guan Yangxi, she was in an unexpectedly good mood.

Bai Jing glanced at her, it seemed that the road would be very lively.

"Your flower tea tastes good, help me refill another cup." Bai Jing pushed the empty cup in her direction.

Xia Hua's face was a little embarrassed when she heard her say this, but she still filled the empty cup.

When Bai Jing was about to drink, she suddenly asked, "Aren't you afraid that I will put some more things down?" ”

"Those things don't work for me." Bai Jing knew that the tea that Xia Hua poured for her just now had been added with hallucinogenic medicine.

It's late at night, Xia Hua has arranged a room for Bai Jing in the hut, and she will be here tonight.

And Shen Rui's side didn't have such a good treatment.

After Bai Jing left with Xia Hua, Jiang Yiming arranged for someone to take Zhong Youqi to the guest room, and then led Shen Rui to a place.

As soon as Shen Rui saw the scenery in front of him, he secretly exclaimed in his heart: "It's not good, it's really settled the account." ”

It is a cliff with a poorly built wooden house on the edge of the cliff.

Jiang Yiming looked at the wooden house, his eyes showed vicissitudes and nostalgia, and he asked, "Shen Rui, do you remember what happened in the wooden house back then?" ”

"I ...... I'm sorry, I didn't know that was going to happen. Shen Rui lowered his head and said softly.

Jiang Yiming glanced at him and said, "I don't blame you. ”

Shen Rui looked up at him in surprise.

"But Fang Shiyi doesn't have to." Jiang Yiming said lightly.

Shen Rui was slightly stunned when he heard this name, "He, is he doing well?" ”

"From my point of view, he's doing well. Still, I think you'll have to meet him. Jiang Yiming stared at her coldly.

"Nope! I don't want to see him! He looked flustered.

"That's what you have to face." Jiang Yiming said as he walked towards the wooden house, "We can all forgive you for other things, because it's not your fault." But only the eleventh thing ......"

He pushed open the old wooden door, "You have to take responsibility for the mistakes you made!" ”

Shen Rui looked at the door that had been pushed open with empty eyes, as if he had been pushed open a memory that had been sealed for a long time, and he was sucked in by the darkness in the door.

"He's in there?" Shen Rui asked.

A trace of sadness flashed in Jiang Yiming's eyes, although he recovered his appearance in an instant, but Shen Rui still saw it. "Let's go in and have a look! He's been waiting for you. ”

Shen Rui stepped into the dark room, and before he could get used to the darkness, Jiang Yiming lit a candle.

The interior was unobstructed, and there was nothing in the empty room, except for a wooden box on the innermost desk.

Shen Rui didn't move, the expected person didn't appear, and he didn't know what to do at this time.

Jiang Yiming stepped forward and took off the wooden box on the desk, he walked up to Shen Rui and said to him: "He left a message for you inside, take a look!" ”

Shen Rui looked at the box in front of him blankly, and after a while, he slowly stretched out his hand to take the wooden box.

"He's dead?" He asked softly.

"......," Jiang Yiming turned his back to him, looking out the window at the branches that were trembling in the wind.

"How did he die?" His voice was a little hoarse.

“…… After the world changed, he left to protect his master. Jiang Yiming replied formulaically.

Shen Rui's hand holding the wooden box burst into green tendons, and he trembled slightly.

"I'll go first. …… Talk to him more. After Jiang Yiming finished speaking, he left.

Shen Rui's eyes did not leave the wooden box, he took a few steps backwards and leaned against the wall, and then slowly sat on the ground. I don't know how long he looked at the wooden box, he seemed to see the previous scenes.

――――5 years ago――――

Five years ago, Shen Rui was 21 years old, and Fang Shiyi was 18 years old.

They are good friends. Although Shen Rui was the young master of the Shen family, and Fang Shiyi was just a subordinate of the Shen family's sister-in-law, they became friends before Fang Shiyi became his sister-in-law's subordinate.

Five years ago, Fang Shiyi became his sister-in-law's subordinate.

Also 5 years ago, he killed Fang Shiyi's girlfriend, who was also his fiancée, although he only made a mistake.

From that day on, they broke up.

At the dance that day, he was just in the mood to go to the balcony to blow some cool breeze and drink some wine, but he saw Eleven's girlfriend talking happily with a strange man, and behaved intimately.

After drinking a little wine, he saw this scene and the strength of the wine came up, obviously he was engaged to Eleven, but here he was talking to other men.

Then he stepped forward.

He didn't remember much about what happened after that, but he was awakened by a scream.

By the time he could react, the woman had already fallen downstairs.

It wasn't until everyone arrived that he realized that the strange man was nothing more than the woman's own brother.

He would never forget the eyes that Fang Shiyi looked at him at that time, there was no emotion in his eyes, but he felt panic for the first time.

They can be considered childhood friends, but from that moment on, they became enemies.

He slowly closed his eyes and retracted his thoughts.

Since meeting him, their lives have changed a lot. If he hadn't gone to Meidu, he wouldn't have met Jiang Yiming, Fang Shiyi and the others; If he hadn't invited them to his birthday party, his sister-in-law wouldn't have taken an interest in them, and they might have fulfilled their dreams instead of being obedient subordinates or slaves.

He opened his eyes, and he did regret it, but he was not a person who would always dwell on the past.

Shen Rui took a closer look at the wooden box by the candlelight, and then he carefully opened the wooden box.

There was also a wooden box in the wooden box, and I thought it was the box containing Fang Shiyi's ashes. Next to the box was a folded envelope.

He opened the envelope and took out the letter inside.

He looked at the letter carefully, and his pupils widened as his gaze gradually descended.

More surprise than sentimentality. -- That's how he's feeling at the moment.

After reading the letter in its entirety, he was stunned and still hadn't come back to his senses.

"I see." He muttered to himself.

He didn't expect it to be like this, but in this way, his strange behavior was explained.

And, he also learned something from the envelope.

His sister-in-law doesn't seem to be the same sister-in-law she used to be.
