Song Xier didn't react at first, but after a while she finally looked up.

The man was wearing a black jacket and overalls of the same color. The zipper of his jacket was pulled up to his head, covering his chin. He was wearing a hat and a mask, and his whole body was covered so tightly that his face could hardly be seen.

He bent slightly, handed the umbrella in his hand to Song Xi'er, and whispered: "You will catch a cold if you get caught in the rain."

The voice was nice. After speaking, he turned and walked towards a black nanny car parked on the side of the road.

The car door was open, and sitting on the seat near the door was a young assistant who was playing with his mobile phone. When he saw the man coming back, he glanced at Song Xier on the roadside, raised the mobile phone in his hand and said something to the man, and then closed the car door. , the car left in the rain.

Song Xier held the umbrella in her hand and looked at the rear of the car that gradually disappeared from sight. She slowly withdrew her gaze.

The rain was getting heavier and there was almost no one on the road.

Song Xi'er didn't know how long she stood there, and the hand holding the umbrella seemed to be numb.

The phone rang again, and it was Su Mei calling, saying that Shang Zhenglin had received the news that Xiao Jie had been taken away and detained by the police, and that he was not charged with rape, and that he would not be released for a while.

"It must be the lawyer Tang your brother called who helped." Su Mei was very grateful: "Are you together? You must say thank you to your brother. This time it is really troublesome for him."

"...No." Song Xi'er paused: "Mom, did anyone look for you and Uncle Shang after we left?"

After Song Xier finished speaking, Su Mei was obviously silent for a few seconds.

"What's wrong?" Su Mei asked.

"It's okay." Song Xi'er said, "Lawyer Tang is very powerful. Mom, don't worry, I'll go back in a while."

Song Xier hung up the phone, stood there for a while, then walked to the bus stop with an umbrella.

She first returned to the house she rented, took a shower and changed clothes before returning to the business.

Shang Zhenglin is not here, only Su Mei.

"Your Uncle Shang is out." Su Mei said, "It seems that he went to see that lawyer Tang."

Tang Yuanbai.

Song Xi'er paused for a moment and said nothing more. She smiled and said, "Mom, I'm staying at home these days."

"Really? That's great." Su Mei was very happy and asked, "Where's your brother? Didn't he come back with you?"

Because Shang Ji is the new generation leader of the business, Su Mei would never take the initiative to contact him before.

But this time Shang Ji obviously helped her daughter a lot, and Su Mei was very grateful.

"He has something to do." Song Xi'er said, "Mom, I'm a little tired. Let's go upstairs and take a rest."

"Go quickly, I'll call you for dinner." After a pause, Su Mei said again: "Don't worry about the Xiao family. No matter what, mom is still here. At worst, mom will take you out of Jiangcheng."

Song Xier's nose felt sour and she said with a smile: "Uncle Shang will definitely be heartbroken to death when he hears what you said."

Su Mei smiled and stepped forward to hug Song Xi'er: "In mom's eyes, you are the most important."

If it really comes to that point, leaving is for Shang Zhenglin's good, at least it won't implicate the merchant.

For several days in a row, Shang Zhenglin kept people paying attention to the news from the police station. When they learned that Xiao Jie was detained, they didn't know what Shang Ji asked Tang Yuanbai to tell the police. The Xiao family The parents' attempts to get bail were unsuccessful.

In addition to eating every day, Song Xier spends the rest of her time upstairs drawing and studying.

As for drawing, Song Xier took up the job under the introduction of her senior sister when she was a freshman. She has been doing it for so many years so she can earn some living expenses.

And when she has time, she will also give live teaching. When answering netizens' questions one by one, Song Xier feels inexplicably relieved and can forget some things she doesn't want to think about.

Su Mei heard that Shang Ji was also staying at the merchant these days. She originally wanted to take Song Xi'er there in person to say thank you, but Song Xi'er always made excuses to shirk her.

She still doesn't know how to face Shang Ji.

Especially the relationship between the two of them.

Song Xier thought that she should take some time to think about her relationship with Shang Ji.

Just keep moving forward,

Or should it end here...

Song Xier rubbed her wrist and glanced at the phone screen aside.

The live broadcast has been going on for more than an hour, with more than [-] viewers, and new comments are constantly being updated. Song Xier is answering questions from netizens while watching.

Her voice was neither fast nor slow, and she answered clearly and patiently.

Suddenly, a caller ID popped up at the top of the phone, which was a series of unknown numbers.

After what happened with Zheng Rou last time, Song Xier felt inexplicably conflicted when seeing unfamiliar numbers.

"Let's go here today." She said to the live broadcast room: "See you next time."

After saying that, Song Xier hung up the live broadcast and then answered the phone.

"Song Xi'er?" It was a man's voice.

"It's me." Song Xier: "You are?"

"I'm your father's friend," the man said.

Song Xi'er was sorting out the pictures she had just drawn. When she heard this, her movements suddenly stopped and her eyes widened: "What did you say?"

The man laughed and asked, "Hasn't Miss Song not wanted to know where her father is after all these years?"

Song Xier's heartbeat suddenly became a little faster, and her fingers holding the phone tightened.

Even so, her voice was very calm: "I don't want to."

She guessed that the sudden call from the other party was definitely not just to tell her the news, but it must have some other purpose.

Especially at this juncture, Song Xi'er could not help but not think too much.

But just when she was about to hang up, the other party said quickly: "Your father didn't even know that your mother was pregnant with you. He has always missed you and wanted to meet you after he found out about your existence."

Song Xier's movement to hang up froze.

Logically speaking, she should hang up.

If she wants to know anything, she can just ask Su Mei.

Instead of listening to a stranger you can't even see here.

But she still hesitated.

Su Mei has kept silent about this matter for so many years, obviously she doesn't want to talk about it.

Song Xier knew nothing about her biological father.

Although she has no feelings for the biological father she has never met, but...

She still had feelings more or less deep inside her heart.

Especially when she was a child, when she saw other children being loved by their fathers, she would also wonder where her father was.

But because she knew Su Mei didn't want to talk, she never asked.

"Your father already knows the news about you and your mother. If you don't come to see him, he will probably go find you by himself." The man added.
