In fact, I don't have to think about it, I also understand that Xu Yi will probably say this answer, so after he spoke, I didn't feel surprised, just nodded to him slightly.

Leaning on the co-pilot, feeling the steady speed, the mood at the moment was extremely relaxed, "Since you want to know, then I'll tell you now." ”

I spoke softly, and I didn't think there was anything wrong with this, but before I told Xu Yi, there were things that should remind him, and there was still nothing missing.

"It's just that I told you you could, but you also promised me one thing!" I stretched out my hand to Xu Yi and repeatedly opened my mouth to him to confirm, "You have to promise me that after telling you, you must not tell this matter, especially not Lin Xiangtian!"

"Xiao Ci, what are you talking about, you've known me for so long, don't you still believe in me?"

Xu Yi blinked at me and slowly spoke, looking very aggrieved, "If you don't believe me like this, then what trust is there between the two of us?" ”

"What are you talking about? Of course I don't believe you, and if I don't, I won't agree to tell you this secret! ”

Sometimes Xu Yi's imagination is so rich that I can only helplessly explain to him, "I just hope you don't say it, it's just a reminder!" ”

"Okay, okay, I know, don't worry, I will never say it!" Hearing me say this, Xu Yi quieted down, and he nodded at me, in order to reassure me.

Of course, after this, he did not forget to ask me again, "Now that I have promised you, can you tell me what you and my father talked about in the study?" ”

My eyes slowly turned from Xu Yi's body to the road ahead, looking at the cars passing and passing above, and the bright lights made me a little upset.

With a long sigh, I slowly spoke to Xu Yi, "Even if I don't say it, you should know about my father being imprisoned for corruption many years ago." ”

"You mean the scandal about Uncle Chen?" Hearing me talk about this, Xu Yi's face was full of surprise, and it was obvious that he didn't expect me to say it so directly at this time.

For me before, this matter was indeed a problem that could not be mentioned, but now I have long been used to it, so where do I care so much.

Now looking at Xu Yi's somewhat nervous appearance, I even felt a little like laughing, so I burst out laughing, "I said you, why are you so surprised, I haven't said anything yet, and now I'm scared of you!" ”

"How can you not be scared when you talk about this suddenly?" Even though I already understood that I didn't care very much, Xu Yi still had some lingering palpitations in his heart.

He drove at a faster pace, and his mood didn't seem to be as stable as before, and then he hesitated for a long time before he cautiously spoke to me.

"Uncle Chen is your father after all, and I think this matter will be a big blow to you after all, so I don't want you to be too sad."

"If the thing I want to ask might hurt you, then you don't have to tell me. Curiosity can be suppressed, but grief cannot. ”

"Since I mentioned to you about my father, of course it has something to do with him." I said to Xu Yi calmly, "But don't worry too much, I don't care too much about these things for a long time." ”

"From the day my father was arrested and imprisoned, until today, before I see your father, I have always believed that my father was imprisoned because he was framed."

"Because his image in my mind has always been so high, he has never been willing to take an extra penny from the company, how could he do such a thing as embezzling public funds."

"And many of the people I asked, and they all gave me the same answer, and they all thought that my father must have been imprisoned for embezzlement because someone framed him."

As I spoke, I couldn't help but let out a sneer, and even I didn't understand why I had such emotions.

Cold-blooded and indifferent, but when I think about it, there is probably a reasonable explanation for everything except that disappointment can cause such a situation.

"Xiao Ci, what do you mean by this, could it be that Uncle Chen was arrested and imprisoned back then, and there are other reasons?" Xu Yi was driving, but he couldn't help but turn his head to look at me, "Uncle Shi is not only wronged, what else can he be, he must have been used as a gun!" ”

"Yes, look, even you say that." I nodded firmly at Xu Yi, "I said, before I met Uncle Xu today, I always thought so. ”

"But do you know what, it's because I met Uncle Xu today, so he told me some unknown things, almost overturned all my previous cognition, and started over."

It seemed that the more I said, the more surprised Xu Yi looked at me, I didn't expect that I would bring him such amazing news.

But I didn't care about it at all, I just kept smiling at him, listening to his surprised words come to my ears.

"Xiao Ci, don't scare me, my dad won't say something to you that shouldn't be said!"

"Not at all, you can rest assured!" I shook my head slightly at Xu Yi, looking at him The originally nervous gaze finally relaxed, still feeling funny.

"Uncle Xu just told me something that I never knew before." I leaned over and said, "I didn't know that Uncle Xu and my father knew each other, and the relationship between the two of them was so good that they would mention each other's paintings. ”

"I asked Uncle Xu about my father, and of course he mentioned that my father was imprisoned for corruption."

"Like you, I don't think my father could have done such a thing, but Uncle Xu told me that it was indeed my father who embezzled public funds back then, and this cannot be refuted at all."

"How is this possible, is my dad wrong about something! Uncle Chen used to be a friend, so you should know that Uncle Chen couldn't be the one who did such a thing. ”

"As I have already said, there is almost no room for manoeuvre in this matter, and Uncle Xu once thought that my father could not do such a thing, as we did, so he went to ask in person, and my father's answer to him was certain."

When I refuted Xu Yi's words again, he just drove silently and didn't ask me too much.

I think at this moment, even he can't say anything to justify, just like I, who was lonely and helpless standing in Uncle Xu's office at the time, obviously wanted to defend my father, but I couldn't do it.

There was silence in the car for a long time, until Xu Yi's soft apology suddenly came from his ear, "I'm sorry." ”

This sudden apology made me unable to react for a while, so I turned my head to look at Xu Yi, and then pulled the corners of my mouth and asked him, "What's wrong, why did you suddenly apologize to me?" ”

"If I had known that you would get such hurtful news from my father, then I shouldn't have instigated you to see him in the first place, and I shouldn't have mentioned this matter to you just now out of curiosity."

"It really doesn't matter, when I first found out at the time, I really couldn't accept it for a while, but think about it, since my father did this, he must have his troubles."

I let out a long sigh, not knowing if it was because I had really accepted the answer, or if it was because the melodious piano music in the car kept my mood calm.

But in any case, after knowing the news, I am still able to maintain my calm, which is not easy for me.

But Xu Yi was obviously still a little worried, so he asked me again, "Xiao Ci, are you sure you're okay, if you feel uncomfortable, you can tell me, it's just the two of us here, you don't need to see me." ”

"It's really nothing, you can rest assured, if I really feel uncomfortable, is it possible that I won't tell you, what do you think again?!"

I stretched out my hand and patted Xu Yi gently, this behavior seemed to be comforting him, but at the same time, it was not comforting myself?

After slowly reaching back, I took a deep breath, "I've already told you everything I need to tell you, and I don't care, so you don't need to be sad about these things." ”

"It's just that you must remember what I said to you just now, and you must not tell Lin Xiangtian, I don't want him to know, and I don't want him to carry too much burden in his heart."

"Since you won't let me tell Lin Xiangtian, of course I won't tell him, but can I ask, why did you do this?"

Xu Yi frowned at me, it was clear that he didn't understand what I meant by doing this.

I put my head close to the window and thought for a while, and was silent for a while, before I slowly spoke, "Actually, before we looked for Uncle Xu today, I had already gone down to find Lin Xiangtian's father, because I also knew that he and my father had known each other. ”

"You should also know that he is not like you, if he knows that his father brought me bad news, then he must blame himself for this, I don't want to see him do this, and I don't want him to do it."

After hearing me say this, Xu Yi really remained silent, and then nodded at me silently, "You're right, in order not to let Lin Xiangtian have too much burden in his heart, it seems that this matter is destined to be hidden from him." ”

"Then if Lin Xiangtian doesn't know, Qin Han should know, right?" Just after agreeing with my words, Xu Yi continued to ask me, "I think he should know, you went home with me tonight, and he didn't say anything?" ”

It's okay not to talk about it, but when I mention it, I have a headache.

It's almost eleven o'clock in the evening, and when I go home, I don't know if Qin Han has slept or not, and whether he will ask me what I did today, it's still unknown.

"I'll tell you the truth, in fact, I came here today without telling Qin Han ...... at all."
