33. Everyone has secrets
As soon as Xiang Jia's Weibo was updated, CP fans who had been hungry for many days flocked to like and retweet it.
Round Bear: Whoa! Sister and brother love so cute
1301314: Today's sugar is very sweet, I hope there will be tomorrow
Dancing Hu Dazhuang: The goddess is so beautiful, she is so beautiful without makeup!
Little sister's little brother: The dancing Hu Dazhuang is now a star, do you dare to take pictures without makeup?
Dancing Hu Dazhuang: Little sister's little brother straight male cancer can't see if there is makeup anyway, don't stop me from eating candy and get angry
Xiang Jia: Little sister's little brother got up early today, and he didn't have time to put on makeup yet
Protect our Dazhuang: Capture the male god himself! Star Eyes
Xiang Jia smirked while looking at the comments on Weibo. I have to admit that even if Li Ruolin's casual selfie has a tricky angle, it is very pleasing to the eye, which is enough to show that Li Ruolin's face is completely 360 degrees without dead ends. Most of Xiang Jia's face was blocked by Li Ruolin, showing a shy appearance, Li Ruolin's hand pressed on Xiang Jia's head, flattening the fluffy yellow hair, and the "eldest sister" was full of aura.
Half an hour later, Katy meow meowed and retweeted the Weibo, setting off another wave of comments.
Some attentive netizens found that there was a gap of half an hour between Katy's meow and Xiang Jiayuanbo's post. Theoretically, the normal idea of the two of them after taking a group photo is that after Xiang Jia finishes posting, Katy immediately forwards it. Is Katy's attitude towards Xiang Jia a little alienated?
Soon, however, such comments and doubts were drowned out by the excitement of sugar, and disappeared into the vast army of comments, like a pebble thrown into the vast lake, and disappeared from then on.
Under the company's secret operation, the topic of Katy Xiangjia's sweet show of affection successfully squeezed into the top three of the hot search and remained there all day.
Li Ruolin lay under the sun umbrella on the beach, squeaky with a trumpet and browsed the comments under her Weibo, and liked it from time to time.
Suddenly, a comment came into view.
Photographer An: It's a strange proportion, but it's beautiful.
Photographer An's account does not add V, but fans obviously know that this is An's own Weibo account, and the number of fans is also more than 100,000.
In less than ten minutes, Zhou Yi's comments jumped into hot reviews.
"What are you doing?" Li Ruolin turned her head and asked Zhou Yi, who was lying on the recliner next to her, wearing sunglasses and basking in the sun.
"I'm basking in the sun." Zhou Yi looked serious.
"I mean, what's going on with this comment?"
"I commented on it casually, and I was realistic."
"Aren't you afraid of netizens guessing?"
"Guess what?"
"The relationship between us."
"Are you a thief?" Zhou Yi had no expression on his face, but he clearly felt the chill on his face.
"What is a thief's heart? I'm not worried you're going to be exposed......"
"You don't have to worry about this, I hope it will be exposed soon."
"Why?" Li Ruolin didn't understand.
"The scandal is getting more and more complicated, and when the time comes, if you and Xiang Jia can't talk about it in person, there is still a way back." Zhou Yi swiped the screen and saw Li Ruolin's trumpet ID, and his heart jumped: "Does your trumpet name have any special meaning?" β
Li Ruolin was stunned: "What does it mean?" β
"Just ask, I think your ID is interesting. Small? Zhou Yi raised an eyebrow, thoughtful.
"I didn't ...... It's nothing. "Li Ruolin is really empty-hearted this time. Zhou Yi has an unusual sensitivity to some things, and he can smell abnormalities just from a Weibo ID, even if he has no basis, it is enough to make Li Ruolin feel uneasy.
Fortunately, Zhou Yi didn't ask any further questions, and began to look through the comments under Weibo. This made Li Ruolin breathe a sigh of relief, afraid that her secret would not be hidden, her palms were already soaked with cold sweat, and her mobile phone had become sticky.
What Li Ruolin didn't know was that although Zhou Yi was looking at the comments, the corner of his eyes never left Li Ruolin, and even focused most of his attention on Li Ruolin. Her every move, every subtle movement, failed to escape Zhou Yi's eyes.
What the hell is she nervous about?
"Are you the only child in the family?" Zhou Yi suddenly asked Li Ruolin.
"yes, why do you ask this all of a sudden?" Li Ruolin's heart beat like a drum.
"I remember the first time you answered my phone and said that your parents died ten years ago?"
"That's all nonsense, didn't I think you were a liar at the time!" Li Ruolin didn't dare to look at Zhou Yi, and her eyes were wandering. What the hell did he want to know?
"That's right......"
Seeing Zhou Yi's thoughtful appearance, Li Ruolin was even more uneasy. Did he know something?
"I'm actuallyβ"
"You-"
Two people spoke at the same time.
"What do you want to tell me?" Li Ruolin asked first, this time she was really empty-hearted.
"I'm not actually a photographer by profession." Zhou Yi planned to confess to Li Ruolin, "I encountered some things two years ago, so I started to change my career to photography. β
"Why are you telling me this?"
"You are entitled to know." Zhou Yi took off his sunglasses, his eyes passed through the hot air, and shot straight into Li Ruolin's eyes. "Until then, I had been a criminal investigator until I had an accident at the airport and I had to go back."
"No wonder you locked me up in the police station that day......" Speaking of this, Li Ruolin was still a little angry.
"I apologize to you for that. I didn't know that they were going to lock you up for a day and a night, thinking they would be released for a few hours at most. β
"So what? How are you going to compensate me? Li Ruolin deliberately diverted the topic.
"You can answer me one more question, you can make it up to you as much as you want." In order to confirm that speculation, Zhou Yi couldn't care so much.
"Okay, you ask."
"Who are you Zhao Feng?"
Zhao ...... Peak? Li Ruolin exhaled these two words with difficulty, and the air in her lungs seemed to be evacuated the moment she heard the name.
Who is Zhao Feng? Hehe...... Is this what he is here for? What compensation, what ambiguity? It seems to be all wishful thinking. That person had only one ultimate purpose, to get close to her and dig up the seeds that had been planted ten years ago.
It turned out that he had already premeditated, and when he mentioned the grandson who was imposting the grandmother while eating wontons in the old alley, he began to suspect it, right? Is she a fool? was used at the beginning, in order to solve the case, to deceive feelings. Okay, this abacus is well played......
"Zhao Feng is my uncle, my mother's brother." Li Ruolin replied coldly, no longer looking at him, he simply made her feel sick.
My heart felt like someone was holding it, and it hurt terribly. It was as if someone had choked his neck, and he couldn't breathe. Li Ruolin breathed hard, as if every breath had to use up all her strength.
"Really?" Zhou Yi didn't understand why she chose to continue lying after she revealed herself? The DNA test report clearly states that she is Zhao Feng's daughter, why should she hide it?
"Really." Li Ruolin gritted her teeth, pretending to be okay on the surface, but her thinking had already been pulled back to that night ten years ago. What little reason she had left told her to get out of the beach, from the man who might dig up the secret at any moment and expose it to the sun.
Li Ruolin returned to the room, took out sleeping pills, quickly swallowed the only two tablets left in the bottle, and regardless of the empty bottle falling to the ground, she lay straight on the bed, praying that she could fall asleep quickly. It's better to sleep than to be tormented by those memories, at least in the dream, she can still remind herself that it is all unreal.
Xiang Jia didn't see Li Ruolin all day, and met Zhou Yi at dinner time, but there was no Li Ruolin by his side.
"Big brother, where is my sister?"
"She's sleeping in her room."
"Skipping dinner?"
"I don't know."
"Did you quarrel?" Xiang Jia felt very strange, "Aren't you guys together?" β
"It's none of your business." Zhou Yi thought that there was no need to involve Xiang Jia in the matter between them.
"Huh? It doesn't matter to me anymore, I haven't seen Sister Katy for a day, we still have work to complete, you can't be so domineering. β
"Then go find him yourself." Judging from the conversation during the day, Zhou Yi felt that Li Ruolin didn't want to see him at this time. He made a salad in the cafeteria and began to eat the grass, which was bland and tasteless.
As soon as he ate two bites, he received a call from Xiang Jiahuo in a hurry: "Big brother!! My sister took a bottle of sleeping pills!! I can't wake up even when I shout!! Yes!! What to do!! β
"What did you say?" Zhou Yi's heart tightened, "I'll go over immediately." β
As soon as I entered Li Ruolin's room, I saw Xiang Jia squatting on the ground wiping tears from an empty medicine bottle.
It's alprazolam.
Zhou Yi's fingertips trembled, what was going on?
"Ruolin? Ruolin, wake up. β
Seeing that Li Ruolin's breathing was stable and her pulse was not abnormal, Zhou Yi put down half of the heart that had been lifted.
"Sister...... Why can't you think about it? Did that bastard bully you? Xiang Jia crawled to the edge of the bed, snorting and tearing.
"She must be asleep."
"You must have bullied her! You give my sister back! Xiang Jia said vaguely while crying.
"You have to think so." Zhou Yi ignored the snot bubbles blown out by Xiang Jia, "You cry for a while, and call me when she wakes up." β
Zhou Lai went to the rooftop of the hotel, lit a cigarette, took a few deep breaths, and soon a cigarette was exhausted. He lit another one and began to puff out the smoke rings slowly.
Hearing Xiang Jia say that Li Ruolin took a bottle of sleeping pills, Zhou Yi's panic in his heart was something he didn't expect. It was a feeling he hadn't experienced in more than twenty years. Perhaps it was because he had gone too smoothly and was too sure about life, and he never thought about what would happen if an unknown variable appeared in his life.
Now that unknown variable has emerged. He was so distraught that even though he knew that she was safe, he didn't know what to do next, so he could only hide on the rooftop and smoke a stuffy cigarette, like a schoolboy who was about to avoid going home to do his homework.
