"Your pants aren't much cheaper online. And the quality is not necessarily good, in case it is not good, it is troublesome to return it, isn't it? ”

Walking into the clothing store, I heard Tang Mengyan's familiar voice, and when I looked up, I saw that Tang Mengyan was recommending jeans to a male customer, and she didn't notice me.

Male customers don't seem to be satisfied with the pants, and keep saying that the price on the Internet can be a lot cheaper, Tang Mengyan is a little anxious, she has been there to recommend the good of physical stores, this era because of the rise of online stores, clothing physical stores are not easy to do, and a lot of business is pulled back by a clever mouth.

I waited at the door until the male customer shook his head and walked out of the store, then walked into the store, took the jeans in Tang Mengyan's hand, and said:

"I look okay with these pants, why don't you sell them to me?"

Tang Mengyan was still a little depressed on her face, but when she heard my voice, she was happy at first, but soon frowned again.

"No, no, these pants are suitable for young people, not for uncles like you." Tang Mengyan said angrily, then folded up her jeans and put them on the display case very unceremoniously.

Uncle? Am I that old? I couldn't help but laugh in my heart, Tang Mengyan was deliberately sarcastic about me.

Seeing Tang Mengyan's performance, I basically knew her attitude towards me, I grabbed her hand and said:

"I just want to dress younger, can you try it on for me?"

"Do you want to try it? Do you want me to take off your pants, uncle? Tang Mengyan looked at me coldly, and said a sneering word, the more Tang Mengyan spoke in this tone, the more unpleasant I felt in my heart, because I knew that this could only mean that the thorn I left in Tang Mengyan's heart had not been removed.

"Meng Yan, how are you doing these days?" I hesitated, looked at Tang Mengyan's delicate face as if it had been covered with a layer of ice, and couldn't help but ask.

"Why do you say that every time you come?" Tang Mengyan looked at me a little impatiently and shook off my hand, "Hurry up and buy clothes, you want to buy them, don't buy them." I'm so busy. ”

But I still looked at her, and this time, I didn't want her to escape my sight again.

"Meng Yan, the last time you came to the store...... I heard a little bit about you. You're not married, are you? I asked in a stiff voice. When I asked this question, I suddenly realized that I had already brought enough courage before, but at this moment, those courage was still far from enough.

Tang Mengyan narrowed her eyes, looked at me like an angry cat, and said:

"Blame Shu Xiao, do you have a stalker, it's interesting to casually ask about other people's things behind other people's backs, isn't it? Moreover, I have a boyfriend, don't you care! ”

"I've heard about your boyfriend, too." I looked at Tang Mengyan and said word by word, "He used to be Zhang Yang's friend, right?" ”

Speaking of Zhang Yang, Tang Mengyan's face became even more ugly, and she even turned around directly and stopped looking at me.

"Who is my boyfriend, and what's the matter with you? Even if my boyfriend is a pig, it has nothing to do with you, right? Top dog...... Uncle! ”

Halfway through speaking, Tang Mengyan suddenly hiccuped, as if she remembered something, and after a pause, she shouted out the word uncle.

I knew what Tang Mengyan originally wanted to call me, but when I heard her call me, my whole body was excited. Because in the past, when we were together, she called me Boss.

I sneered, and Tang Mengyan's face was also a little red, but her eyes were still full of resentment.

I put away a flash of smile, looked at her quiet but somewhat anxious face in a daze, and said softly:

"Meng Yan, I'll tell you the truth. I'm not here to buy pants. I'm here to see you. I'm sorry for you...... Really, after all these years, the person I have always been most sorry for is you. You give me a chance, and we're back together, okay? Just like before, it doesn't matter if you call me whatever you want, you can call me boss or call me by my name. ”

Tang Mengyan's whole body froze in place, she pursed her mouth tightly and inhaled vigorously, like a respiratory patient in urgent need of oxygen.

She looked at me, I looked at her.

For three seconds.

Then she suddenly laughed.

It's a sneer.

"With you? With your big boss? Hehe, I'm sorry, I'm not interested in you anymore. I like men who are more exciting, who can give me a sense of freshness, who likes cycling, who likes boxing, who can fight and run, a big boss like you, is not my thing. Tang Mengyan said with her chest crossed, her tone was very straight, so straight that it made me feel a little strange. Also, don't you already have a girlfriend? The one who went to the ball with you last time was so beautiful and so gentle, why didn't you stay with her? Why are you still coming to me? It can't be dumped by her, right? ”

Hearing her say this, I finally understood the reason why Tang Mengyan was angry, it turned out that she had always cared so much about the confinement matter.

A few years ago, Tang Mengyan and Li Ping attended the dance party held by our company together, that time, I couldn't find a dance partner, so I went with the confinement group, that time, Tang Mengyan was also present, and she saw it with her own eyes. I still can't forget Tang Mengyan's lonely back when she left the ball.

"Oh, the one you're talking about, she's my sister." I smiled and said, "I couldn't find anyone to dance with me that time, so I had to beg her to come with me, which is kind of supporting me for the scene." Really, dear sister. ”

Tang Mengyan raised an eyebrow, as if she had heard a story of the Arabian Nights, and there was no trace of trust in me on her face. I thought she would look much better when she heard my explanation, but I was wrong, she was still so cold, and the distance between her and me was not a little closer.

"Sister? Scold. Tang Mengyan pouted and smiled, "It fell from the sky, right?" When we were together before, how come I never heard you say it? It's so beautiful, you can't even buy it. I think it's Brother and Sister, right? ”

Tang Mengyan's mouth is still quite sharp, and every word can speak to my sore spots.

Indeed, if I had done a blood test, even I would not have believed that Yuezi would be my sister.

"It's true, don't believe it, I can bring you a certificate of kinship." I say.

Tang Mengyan smiled again: "I said that I am my sister, and I still have to do a kinship appraisal?" I'm afraid that others won't know, right? Did you have this sister from the beginning or did she come later? ”

"Meng Yan, I can't tell you about this matter, but she is really my sister, we didn't grow up together, you know, my parents divorced when I was very young, I was raised by my father, and my sister was raised by my mother. I knew her after you left, so you didn't know. I grabbed Tang Mengyan's wrist, for fear that she wouldn't listen to me at all, so I turned around and left.

"Take it away." But what Tang Mengyan gave me was still coldly taken away.

I grabbed her hand and stared blankly at her.

"I told you to take your hand away, didn't you hear me! Deaf? Tang Mengyan angrily shook off my hand holding her wrist, blowing the hot air hard, she looked at me with resentment, and said angrily, "Do you know that it hurts?" If you touch me again, I'll call the security guard, say you sexually harassed or not? ”

I looked at Tang Mengyan quietly, and my heart felt like a hole had been torn up, and it hurt hotly.

"Meng Yan, I heard about your boyfriend, his personality is not very good, and he often spends all his money, is that so? You...... Really like people like him? ”

Hearing my words, Tang Mengyan's face became even more ugly, and I saw that her cheeks were a little redder.

"What do you mean? You're trying to say that my boyfriend is bad, say hello, aren't you? Tang Mengyan said with her mouth shut, "Then let me tell you, even if Chen Feng is not good for a hundred, he is a thousand times better than you, ten thousand times!" ”

Every word of Tang Mengyan was like a nail in my chest, which made me tear my heart out. I felt like my heart had been sliced with scissors.

Tang Mengyan stared at me tightly, and then, word by word, squeezed out a voice from between her teeth and said:

"And...... Chen Feng: He's going to get engaged to me in a few days. You're late...... Too late. ”

In the end, I saw that the corners of Tang Mengyan's eyes were red and shallow, and my whole body was slightly shocked, from Tang Mengyan's eyes, I suddenly understood that in fact, maybe she was not so resistant to me as she said.

I knew what I had to do now, but I wasn't prepared for anything, I came empty-handed, I didn't have anything to show my heart.

Finally, I took a deep breath and did something that surprised me a little.

I stepped forward and hugged Tang Mengyan suddenly.

As if I was afraid that she would run away, I hugged Tang Mengyan fiercely and hugged her tightly.

Tang Mengyan struggled like crazy, she slapped me hard, let out a frightened and anxious scream, and her tone changed.

"What are you doing? Take it away! I didn't understand it when I took it away! Tang Mengyan screamed, pushing my chest hard, trying to push me away from her, but I hugged me too tightly, and I had much more strength than hers, she couldn't push me away.

"Yan Yan, when we were together before, you kept saying that you wanted to go to my house to see, saying, Boss, what is your house like? Isn't it like those little young people, they are all ugly adult movies and adult magazines? At that time, I was just smiling, but I didn't take you to my house once, and then you left, and I thought, how nice it would be if you could be at home with me, if we could do it all over again...... How good will it be...... Yan Yan, if you are willing to give me a chance, will you come home with me? If you wish, it will be your home from now on. ”

Because of Tang Mengyan's shouting, more and more people rushed over from the surrounding stores to watch, and Tang Mengyan's voice quickly weakened. I could hear a sobbing sound in her voice.

"Go away...... Everyone else is watching, I'm still working, do you want me to be fired? Tang Mengyan pushed me in a stiff voice.

I took a deep breath and said:

"Dismissal, dismissal, dismissal, I'll support you, okay?"

This time, I really felt that Tang Mengyan's body didn't move, and even the resistance stopped for a short while.

Tang Mengyan's voice came to my ears like a rising and falling wind:

"Raise me? Forget it, can you afford it...... I'm a very demanding and greedy person. ”

"If you are greedy, you will be greedy, and it doesn't matter how greedy you are. Come back, okay, Yanyan? I asked softly, hugging Tang Mengyan tightly, for fear that she would flow away from my arms like a stream of water.

"Forget it...... Tang Mengyan's voice sounded again, "Boss, we don't ...... suitable"

Tang Mengyan raised her head from my arms, her eyes were filled with tears like pear blossoms, and I saw that her eyes were already red.

"We've tried it once, we'...... Not suitable. You're a big boss, you're the chairman of a big company, I'm just a woman who will cause you trouble, and we're not suitable for it in the first place...... What I like is a man who is hot-blooded, likes sports, and can always accompany me and give me stimulation, not a big boss with money and status like you...... I used to be with you just because I liked your money, boss, you wouldn't really be naïve enough to think I really had feelings for you, would you? Some things are gone, and I have already ...... to you I don't feel the slightest feeling. Tang Mengyan smiled, but tears kept falling, "Don't come to me again, boss, while you're young, hurry up and find a better woman to marry." I am also about to get married, Chen Feng is already saving money to buy a ring, he said that he will save enough money in a few days, at that time, he proposed to me. So don't come to me again, don't, again, come! Get out! ”

Tang Mengyan's last four words came out of her mouth one after another, and after saying this, she broke free from my arms and ran directly to another clerk in the store who had already been dumbfounded, and after a few words of hurried explanation, she ran towards the outside of the mall while wiping the tears on her face under the pretext of being unwell.

I stood there in a daze, looking at Tang Mengyan's back running away.

It's like it's written all over again, don't come to me again.

Tang Mengyan walked out of the mall like this, and in the end, I still didn't keep her, and I couldn't even say a word to her.

Through the clerk who worked with Tang Mengyan in the store, from her intermittent description, I probably knew Tang Mengyan's recent life status.

Just like the store manager who was there last time said, Tang Mengyan has been really bad recently, her current boyfriend is called Chen Feng, a man who spends money like a waste, and he also owes a debt outside, this matter is also Tang Mengyan only learned recently, but he has indeed chased Tang Mengyan for several years, which is also a fact. Among all the people who chased Tang Mengyan, he can be said to be the one who has been chasing for the longest time, and he has been chasing Tang Mengyan since he was still in high school.

I asked the clerk how the relationship between Tang Mengyan and Chen Feng was, and did Tang Mengyan like him? The clerk said that she didn't know very well, but said that Tang Mengyan should be reluctantly acceptable, because she didn't have more choices, Tang Mengyan had fallen in love several times, but it didn't go well, and her work has been very bumpy. The clerk also asked me about my relationship with Tang Mengyan, and I just told her that I was Tang Mengyan's ex-boyfriend, and I didn't mention much more.

From her words, I know the fact that Tang Mengyan is not doing well.

When I left the mall, it started to drizzle again, and during this time the weather became cooler, it rained from time to time, and there were not many sunny days. When I got home, I didn't enter the house, but parked the car in front of the house, looking at the villa of Nuoda in a daze, but the faces of several women appeared in my mind. Xueqi's face, Tang Mengyan's face, Yuezi's face, Yuhui's face, every face is so vivid, and they are all an indispensable part of my life. Together, they make up my life.

Suddenly, I heard someone calling me, and when I opened the car window, I found that it was confinement carrying a plastic bag from the supermarket, and when I saw her, I stuck my head out.

"Brother, where did you go just now? Why don't you go home? Yuezi looked at me in some surprise and asked loudly.

"It's nothing, I just want to get drenched in the rain, Yuezi, you can sit in too, I have something to say, I want to talk to you alone." I looked at the confinement quietly and said.

Yuezi looked at the frozen food in her hand, then at me, and finally she opened the door of the passenger seat and sat in the car.

"Brother, do you have anything on your mind?" Yuezi put away her umbrella, sat in the car with me, and asked me in her usual soft voice.

"Confinement, I found myself stuck in a dead loop." I said with a wry smile.

"How?" Yuezi looked at me, and finally looked at the constantly swaying wipers and asked me. But listening to the voice, it seems that the confinement is not so surprised, as if she had already guessed that I would say this.

"Yuezi, in fact, you know it, in fact, this game is a dead end." I smiled wryly and said, "If you want to get through this game, Qiqi will get her happiness, but if I'm not happy, Qiqi won't be truly happy." But for me...... The happiness I want is to be able to be together, so that she will never leave me like she did when she was a child. But that way...... Qiqi can't be completely happy, because she likes Ma Bailong. This game is unsolvable. I just figured that out. ”

She folded her hands in front of her knees, quietly looked at the whole world covered by the rain, and breathed calmly, as if nothing would disturb her, as if she already knew what I said.

The whole world is quiet at this time.

It took a long time for the confinement to let out a long breath, and she whispered:

"Brother...... Actually, I know very well. Happiness is always selfish. Speaking of this, Yuezi also smiled bitterly, "There is one person who is happy, and there will always be one person who is not happy." How is it possible to make everyone happy? Brother, you understand what I said, right? ”

"I think I've understood this for a long time, but I just won't admit it......," I said, looking at the thick rain curtain, "so I think as long as I can make Qiqi feel that I'm happy, even if I'm not really happy, that's enough." ”

Yuezi was silent again, she reached out and patted the back of my hand, but said nothing.

"Brother, I'm sorry for you."

"Yuezi, I've been thinking, if we fail to conquer this world, do you say, will people from other worlds save us?" I said suddenly.

"Brother...... Why do you think that? Yuezi was a little stunned, "If even you give up, don't mention the people from other teams." ”

"No, I just think that I have always been a very ordinary ordinary person, and I have never had the unrealistic ability to be a god and dominate the world or anything. I don't know if other people have that ability, but I think that the more capable a person is, the more responsible he will be. ”

Yuezi frowned slightly: "Brother, listening to your words, I always feel that you seem to be a little disheartened." Brother, although it is not appropriate to say this at this time, I still want to say that don't trust outsiders too much. Everyone has their own selfishness and interests, especially in the current situation, I think if the other teams really complete their tasks, then the next step will be to attack us. ”

"Are people selfish? Maybe, I don't disagree, but I think that in addition to selfishness, there will also be another factor of goodness in everyone's heart. People and animals are not the same after all, confinement. I smiled lightly, "When the calf is just born from the cow's belly, it can stand up and walk in search of food." When the ducklings have just broken their shells, they are able to move around on their own. But people, it's different, people are just born, for a long time they can't walk on their own, they can't even open their eyes, they can't eat and talk, until they are one or two years old, they can wean and walk, talk and eat. Man is a creature that cannot reproduce without the help and guidance of others. So in essence, human beings are different from other animals, and everyone has an instinct to help others, which is a selfless instinct. An instinct that only humans have. So I believe that the other people who participate in this game must also have a good heart, they are all forced to participate in this game, not voluntarily, in essence, no one wants to play this game and persecute others. ”

"However, even if everyone has a good heart for others, it is necessary to treat their relatives first." Yuezi said with a frown.

"Yuezi, although you are smart, you have never raised a child, so your understanding of this kind of thing is not as good as mine." I laughed again: "When I first picked up Qiqi, she wasn't any of my relatives. She's just an abandoned orphan, I don't know if she's sick or not, and she's not related to me either, so she has no blood relationship. But I kept her with me and raised her from a baby. At that time, if I hadn't taken care of Qiqi, she might have starved to death. Look, confinement, isn't this a living example of a person? Maybe my purpose was not so simple. However, sometimes the wrong purpose can bloom into beautiful results. God game? What is God? Hehe. ”

I smiled wryly, folded my hands behind my head, and quietly looked at the rain flowers blooming one after another in the car window, and in the flowing rain, I saw a gradually blooming face of Jesus again.

"God, God...... Why does it have to be God or God? Why can't God be an ordinary person, like you, or like me? ”

Yuezi held my wrist a little harder, and I saw her look at me more determined. Even in her bright and clear eyes, I saw a rare hint of moisture.

"Brother," Yuezi looked at me, a shallow bitter smile bloomed on the corner of her lips, "Brother, I never thought you were so thoughtful before. You're bigger than I thought you would. ”

Yuezi looked straight at me, her black eyes were shining, and she didn't know what was going on in her mind.

It was a long time before she continued:

"Brother, no matter what you choose, I support you...... If the end of the world really comes, I am willing to die with you. ”

Yuezi's words hit me hard in the chest, and I don't know how much courage it takes for Yuezi to say this.

"Actually......" Yuezi smiled, stroked her bangs, and then tapped her finger on my chest, "If the end of the world really has to come, that's fine." At least at the end of the day, I don't have to worry about you being my brother anymore, right? ”

Yuezi's understatement was an understatement, but a nuclear bomb was dropped on my heart, and in an instant, all the emotions buried in my heart were detonated.

Yes, what the confinement said is right.

If the end of the world is really coming, then what ethics do you need, and what concerns do you need? In the face of the apocalypse, what is the meaning of human law and morality?

"Treat every day as if it were the end of the world and go through it without regrets." Yuezi wiped the beads of sweat from my forehead and looked at me with gentle eyes, "If you really like someone, then love her desperately, and use the rest of your life to pursue her with all your might, don't regret it until the last second." Elder brother. ”

I looked at Yuezi's quiet and white face, and a kind of heat energy like a flame instantly surged and flowed in my veins. The words of the confinement ignited all the remaining passions in my heart like a fuse, and in an instant, the depression, decadence, emptiness, and confusion that had accumulated in the dark years were all burning like fuel!

I looked at the confinement deeply, and then, solemnly, nodded.

When I returned to the hall, Ma Bailong happened to come out of the villa, and I saw Xue Qi waving at him with a smile on his face, but when he saw me and Yuezi, the smile on Xue Qi's face suddenly disappeared again.

I persuaded Ma Bailong to stay and eat together, and Ma Bailong excused himself several times, but in the end he was retained by me. At dinner, Ma Bailong showed his excellent eloquence for the first time, telling a lot of interesting stories in the entertainment industry and his own life, and I found out for the first time that Ma Bailong was still a person with a little sense of humor, and suddenly understood that the reason why Xue Qi was fascinated by him was not for no reason. At the dinner table, Xue Qi was amused by Ma Bailong several times.

During the conversation, I specially said to Ma Bailong several times, Ma Bailong is so mature, and when Xue Qi goes to the United States in the future, I will ask him to take care of him more, I even smiled and said, if it is a man like him who has a heart and maturity, I will have no problem giving Xue Qi to him, at that time Xue Qi pulled my sleeve hard, blushing like a tomato, and Ma Bailong was also stunned, and then smiled a little shyly.

After dinner, I wanted Ma Bailong to stay a little longer, but this time, Ma Bailong still couldn't keep it after all. After sending Ma Bailong away, Xue Qi and Yuezi helped me clean up the dishes and chopsticks together, but the smile on Xue Qi's face when Ma Bailong was present before was obviously restricted, and I saw that she had been pouting all the time, with a sullen expression.

Seeing Xue Qi's appearance, I stepped forward and asked:

"What's wrong, upset?"

"......" Xue Qi didn't speak, just silently washed the dishes and chopsticks with dish soap, and after putting the bowls in the cupboard, she walked towards the second floor without looking back. I looked at each other, and finally Yuezi gave me a look, I still wiped my hands and chased Xueqi out. When I walked to the door of Xueqi's room, I found that there was no one in the room, and when I walked to the balcony, I found that she was standing there, facing the wind and rain. Because it was raining all day today, Xue Qi stood on the balcony, and the rain naturally quickly wet her bangs.

"What are you doing, Qiqi? It's raining outside, and your clothes will get wet when you stand here. I looked at Xueqi's slender figure on the railing and asked softly.

Xue Qi still stood silently, until I walked up to her and patted her on the shoulder, she turned her face a little angrily and looked at me, her two big black eyes with a little coquettish and sulky brilliance.

"Dad, you're too much to manage." Xue Qi said to me straight to the point, her voice like the expression she had when she ate a tomato that she didn't like when she was a child.

"What's wrong with me?" I asked with a smile. "Don't I just want Ma Bailong to be with you? Qiqi, you're going to the United States, and I can't go with you, so someone has to take care of you, right? ”

Xue Qi's soft and faint eyebrows raised slightly, her gaze drifted over the railing, and then as if she had figured out something, she said:

"But I didn't agree to go to the United States. I've already called Ms. Tu before, and I've told her I'm going to school. ”

I didn't expect Xue Qi to be so resolute, I couldn't believe it for a while, I thought that at the end of the day, Xue Qi had changed a little, but I didn't expect her to still have this attitude, I couldn't help it.

"Qiqi, you have been admitted, this is Harvard University, a well-known school in the world. The opportunity is so good, why don't you go? Haven't you been preparing for a long time? I really don't understand you anymore. My tone unconsciously quickened a little.

"Because Sister Yuhui has a boyfriend. I used to think that Daddy was going to be with her. Xue Qi muttered and said.

"Silly girl, so you used to think so much. Who told you that I will definitely be with Yuhui? I patted Xue Qi's head and smiled.

"Qiqi, Dad really already has a girlfriend. Dad met her today, but she was a little busy and couldn't come home for dinner with us. ”

"Nonsense. At first glance, you know that you are telling a lie. Xue Qi said with a smile, and I was speechless.

"I'm honest, I didn't lie to you." I puffed up my chest and swore an oath, and then I lowered my face and said, "Qiqi, I'm here for your own good, for your happiness, do you understand?" ”

The wind and rain blew in from the balcony, constantly slapping on Xue Qi's soft black hair, and Xue Qi's face once again showed a worried expression.

She turned away, looked away from me, and said as if to herself:

"But Dad, you're not happy, how can you make me happy?"

Like raindrops falling into a pond, a gentle ripple rippled in my heart.

"Daddy will be happy." In the end, I still smiled, maybe reluctantly, maybe stiffly, but I still gave Xueqi a smile that was enough to make her believe me. "Daddy promises."

Xue Qi turned around, and she looked at me quietly, but I was still not at ease when I saw more on her face.

I don't know when, it's not that I'm worried about her anymore, it's actually this girl who is worried about me, sometimes I think it's a little funny.

Although Xueqi's attitude made me a little relieved, I was also afraid of this relief. Because this relief means that Xue Qi will never be able to leave me, I must keep her by my side and put her in danger, and if I stay with me, Xue Qi will not really walk with Ma Bailong, which also means that my mission will never be accomplished.

That night, I went back to the basement to read my book of the world, the progress bar on it showed 95%, and the progress bar on it this morning was only 90%, it seems that Xueqi and Ma Bailong got along for a day, especially the words I mentioned at dinner to marry Xueqi to Ma Bailong, really made Xueqi's heart happy. This is also what Xue Qi wants.

Time is running out and I have to make a choice as soon as possible.

Even if that choice wasn't what I liked.

Because of Xueqi's insistence and refusal, I had no choice but to help her, so I had to find another way. The next morning, I received a message from Yuhui, Yuhui said that she was looking around in Japan, but still couldn't find out more about Miyoko, and what disappointed her even more was that she found that Miyoko's so-called Japanese identity was also fake at all, Miyoko, she didn't have a home in Japan at all, and she wasn't even a Japanese.

That's it.,The most critical clue to find Miyoko.,And that's it.。 I asked Yuhui to come back, but Yuhui didn't refuse, and said that when she called me, she had already booked a ticket and would probably be able to return to China in the evening.

Although I am glad at Yuhui's return, there is only an indescribable sense of loss in my heart. It's not just because I broke off Miyoko's clues, but more importantly, I thought about more things, and I found that I didn't know that I should face Yuhui who appeared in front of me again.

I've never had such hesitation before.

But no matter how much I hesitate, I will still come.

In the middle of the night, Yuhui said that she had arrived at the airport, and when she got her phone number, Yuezi, James, and Frexiu naturally got up and went to the airport to pick her up as soon as possible. And Xueqi was already asleep, so I didn't disturb her, but let her stay at home alone.

However, just as I was driving out with Confinement and James, I suddenly received an unexpected phone call.

It was Xueqi who called me.

I instinctively picked up the phone, but when I heard Xueqi's frightened voice on the phone, I felt like I was electrocuted.

"Daddy! Fire! Father! The house is on fire! ”

Xueqi's exclamation made my whole body brake in shock, and I almost hit the car window.

"On fire? What's on fire, Qiqi? I clutched my phone and asked out loud.

"I don't know...... What a fire...... The villa is on fire...... There is also the smell of gasoline...... Father...... Come back soon! Xueqi's voice was mixed with coughing, and I had a premonition that something was wrong, and suddenly a strong remorse stirred in my chest, and I wanted to slap myself hard. I thought that it would only take a few dozen minutes to pick up Yuhui at the airport, and I would be back soon, but I didn't expect such a big thing to happen after I had only been gone for so long.

My villa is not a civil structure, and it is impossible to catch fire under normal circumstances, not to mention that I have only been away from home for a long time, and under normal circumstances, the fire will not be as big as Xue Qi said...... It could only be that someone was deliberately setting the fire!

And the person who will do it will know who it will be without thinking about it.

These days, because I have been living a very stable life, although I have been guarding against possible accidents and trying not to leave Xueqi's side, but a few days of stability still make me careless.

I didn't expect that I had only been away from her for a few minutes today, and the revenge would come so quickly and so violently.

"Qiqi, don't worry, call 119, don't worry...... Daddy will be back soon! …… Qiqi, can you escape! ”

"No...... Father...... There seems to be a man with a knife outside the villa...... I don't dare to come out......" Xue Qi's voice already had a hint of crying, as if she was about to cry.

"Mother's Xipi's!"

When I heard Xue Qi's words, my heart was almost bursting, and I slammed the steering wheel, slammed the accelerator hard, and rushed back in the direction of home. Yuezi and James were also pale, and they didn't say a word, and Yuezi directly began to call 119, 110 and 120.

When I drove to the door of the house angrily, I didn't see the person with the knife that Xue Qi said, but what I saw was a raging sea of fire.

The villa that has accompanied me and Xue Qi for decades has been shrouded in flames at this moment, the terrifying flames are like the claws of the devil, holding this old villa in the palm of your hand, and the gasoline that climbs along the wall has climbed to the third floor, and the floor where Xue Qi is is on the third floor.

Outside the villa, I also saw several neatly arranged rolling oil drums, and it was clear that the fire had been maliciously created by someone, and the arsonist had already fled. With such a horrible fire, I can't imagine how much gasoline that man used.

"Qiqi!!" I kicked the car door and rushed out like crazy, looking up at the flame-encompassing villa in front of me, my heart dripping blood.

"Brother...... Qiqi and Shu are still in the villa......" Yuezi whispered behind me.

"Qiqi! Qiqi! I screamed frantically, all that was left in my vision was the endless fire, and I felt the scorching heat in my face as I stood for several meters.

The whole world, all that is left is fiery red.

"Qiqi!" I screamed and stomped my feet as hard as I could, and in the end, I didn't care about anything anymore, and rushed straight to the gate of the villa, which had been destroyed, and rushed towards the endless sea of fire.

The hot heat wave came to my face in an instant, enveloping my whole body.
