Walking to the door, Lin Xi searched for a long time before finding the key in a flower bed.

Since the departure of my parents, the servants of the family have also been dismissed, and no one has been here for many years.

This key was left by Lin Xi before he went abroad.

After years of wind and rain, the door opened automatically with a creaking sound.

Lin Xi stood at the door and didn't make the next move, until Qin Yu beside him spoke: "Go in." ”

As if waking up from a dream, Lin Xi answered and followed his footsteps.

From the courtyard to the main gate, this section of the road seemed to be longer than Lin Xi imagined.

The yard is overgrown with wild grass, two wildflowers can be faintly seen, and the swing chair next to it is also rusty.

Her memories of this place are still stuck in the age of sixteen.

When she was a little younger, she lived in the compound more. She didn't start living here with her parents until around junior high school, but every once in a while, she would always sneak back to the courtyard.

Walking to the main entrance, Lin Xi took out another key and opened the door.

The door was pushed open, and a cloud of dust shook off the door panel.

"Ahem......" Lin Xi stood on Qinyu's side.

Lin Xi's parents' house, counting the underground, has a total of five floors and a large area. Lin Xi didn't plan to go all over, she just wanted to go back to her father's study to have a look.

The study is on the second floor.

The doors were open, and Lin Xi went in and touched the desktop and the dust on his hand.

No one has really been here since she left. There was no trace at all.

Unlike other people's desks, which like to put some precious ornaments, my father's desk has a lot of picture frames, in addition to that, there is also a pen holder with two brushes hanging on it.

Lin Xi picked up the photos one by one and wiped them carefully.

"Do you want to take it away?"

Qin Yu looked at the photo on the table and asked.

"Bring this one." Lin Xi didn't want to take them all away, so she only chose one of the group photos and wanted to put them in her apartment.

She was carrying a tote bag today, which was more than enough to put down a picture frame.

The two didn't stay long, and before leaving, Lin Xi glanced at the backyard.

In the yard, the moon flowers planted by his father for his mother were still blooming, Lin Xi was stunned for a moment, "After so many years, I am still alive." ”

My mother liked the moon flowers, so my father opened up a piece of land in the backyard and planted it all over the country.

Of course, not many have survived now, and only a few have bloomed well.

Qin Yu glanced at it, "Someone will come to water it regularly." ”

"Huh?" Lin Xi quickly guessed that it was his handiwork, but he was still curious: "The third brother has the key?" ”

"Nope."

Qin Yu motioned for her to look at the fence opposite: "I used other methods to dewater on the partition wall outside the courtyard." ”

"......" Lin Xi was surprised and didn't forget to thank him.

In the end, Lin Xi took one of them and took it away and sent it to his parents.

When I came out of the cemetery, it was almost noon.

Lin Xi looked at the time, "If the third brother is okay, let's have a meal together." ”

She took the initiative to invite, how could Qin Yu have no time.

The two chose a French restaurant, which had a quiet atmosphere and was perfect for chatting.

In the middle, Qin Yu left his seat and went to answer a work call. Lin Xi was almost finished, looking at the floor-to-ceiling window in a daze.

Someone suddenly sat down in the vacant seat next to him, and a strong sweet fragrance came to his face.

It's Su Ran again.

Lin Xi is very sensitive to smells, and she doesn't need to look up to know that it's her.

She had gone from speechless to numb.

Seeing her coming, Su Ran waved his hand, "Hi." ”

"Tracking Qinyu?"

Su Ran shook his head and said calmly: "No." Stalking you, of course. ”

Lin Xi glanced at her, leaned back, helpless: "What the hell are you going to do, Qin Yu is there." ”

She pointed out a direction to Su Ran.

"I said I wasn't here for him." Su Ran smiled at her.

She and Lin Xi are not in the same style at all. Lin Xi is a cold and hanging royal sister, while Su Ran is biased towards sweet and young, and she feels like a very sweet girl when she laughs, which can easily make people soft-hearted.

She tried this trick on others. It's only here that it doesn't work.

Lin Xi really didn't eat her, and there was no turmoil in his heart.

Selling cute and playing treasure doesn't work, Su Ran can only go straight to the point, and said concisely: "Add a WeChat, and I'll leave after adding." ”

"......" Lin Xi frowned slightly.

Seeing this, Su Ran hurriedly stretched out his hand and made an oath, "Really, I will go back to Huaicheng after adding, and I will definitely not disturb you." ”

"I don't have WeChat."

"Sister, this excuse has really been used up badly, who will believe it, you have to make up a decent one."

Lin Xi's face did not change: "I gave you a clear answer, as for believing it or not, that's your business, and it has nothing to do with me." ”

“……”

Only then did Su Ran react to what Lin Xi meant.

Lin Xi knew that this excuse was very fake, rotten, and perfunctory, but her purpose was never whether others would believe what she said, but that she had already answered out of politeness, and no matter what, it would already give you face.

If the other party is entangled again, it will be shameless.

Also, she is Lin Xi, so she doesn't need to worry about whether what she says will arouse the suspicion of others, for her, it is okay to get by on the surface. Ordinary people don't dare to debunk her.

Su Ran sighed lightly, "You are really a little different from what I thought." ”

"There's always a call, right? Give me a number. ”

"We don't know each other, so in my opinion, there's no need to connect." Lin Xi looked sideways and looked her up and down, rare and a little curious: "You pay attention to us, since it's not for Qinyu, then what else are you trying to do?" ”

"I think you're very interesting, didn't I tell you last time, I like you very much!"

“……”

Lin Xi couldn't be happy at all. She gradually realized the seriousness of the problem, "The 'like' in your mouth is like Qin Yu'

Like'? ”

This is to ask Su Ran. The latter thought carefully and shook his head, "Not really." I like you, I want to be friends with you, of course...... It would be great if you could be my sister-in-law! ”

Su Ran took the opportunity to take out his mobile phone and flipped out the photo to show Lin Xi, "Look, this is my own brother, one year older than you, and he is still in the same major as you." If my dad hadn't agreed, he might have been with you by now. ”

"Look, handsome." Su Ran tried his best to sell: "Although it is slightly inferior to Qin Yu, it is not a style, I think my brother is more suitable for you." ”

"I took a closer look just now, and you and Qin Yu didn't communicate much throughout the whole process. If you don't speak, he doesn't speak, and if the two of you are together, how boring your daily life will be. ”

"With my brother, it's completely different. You'll be doubly happy! Because of me! ”

"Thank you." Lin Xi pushed her phone back, "But I don't have this idea." ”

"What about Qinyu? You're a double standard. ”
