Xu Bowen found this place after several inquiries. She had no intention of disturbing her, she just wanted to see the place where she once lived.

But he didn't want the girl coming out to make him stunned.

"Ruhui!"

The extremely similar appearance made him lose his composure, his eyes fixed on Lin Xi not far away.

Lin Xi never expected that her first official meeting with him would be such an unexpected encounter.

She was equally shocked, staring at the man who might be her biological father.

Xiaopeng saw Lin Xi coming out with a box of things in the car and hurriedly stepped forward, "Madam, I'll come."

When Xiaopeng took the things, he glanced at Xu Bowen warily, "Sir, are you looking for someone?"

Xu Bowen recovered from the shock and smiled awkwardly, "I'm not looking for it, I'm just passing by."

Xiaopeng looked at him full of doubts, he was a very decent person, and then went to put his things away.

Xu Bowen glanced at Lin Xi and smiled to himself, how could a girl in her twenties be Ruhui?

With his identity inconvenient, Xu Bowen turned around and wanted to leave.

"gentlemen!"

Lin Xi didn't know what she was going to say when she suddenly stopped him, but she stopped him out of instinct.

"you call me?"

Xu Bowen looked at Lin Xi doubtfully.

Lin Xi was a little at a loss and didn't know what she was going to say to him. After a moment, she hesitated and said, "Yes, you stood at the door of my house for a long time. Are you an old friend of my family?"

Xu Bowen pursed his thin lips and said, "What's your relationship with your family?"

"Liang Hong is my grandfather."

Lin Xi said and took a few steps forward, looking at Xu Bowen intently.

The panic and nervousness in Xu Bowen's eyes were quickly captured by Lin Xi.

His expression paused, and his voice was a little uneasy, "Little girl, how old are you this year?"

Immediately, Lin Xi curled up her lips and answered the question, "My mother's name is Liang Rumei."

Xu Bo breathed a sigh of relief.

Lin Xi bit the meat in his mouth, feeling relieved!

She smiled slightly and asked, "Do you know my grandpa?"

Xu Bowen said politely, "I don't know you. I just walked here and saw that this small courtyard has a sense of age. I can't lift my feet when I think of some old things."

Seeing the calm expression on his face, Lin Xi couldn't help but sigh to himself: He is worthy of being the official of one parent. There is nothing wrong with what he said.

"I just heard you calling someone by a name. Do you think I'm your friend?"

Seeing that he had no intention of leaving, Lin Xi asked tentatively.

"It was dazzling for a moment and made me laugh."

"Sir, if you feel that our small courtyard looks familiar or feels friendly, you can come in and take a look. This place will be demolished soon. It should be difficult to find this kind of small courtyard in Shanghai."

Xu Bowen hesitated. Twenty-six years later, how could she still be here? He had thought too much when he came to Shanghai recently.

"No, it's too disturbing."

"Don't bother me, we're just packing up. If this small courtyard can bring you some comfort, it's its last bit of value."

Xu Bowen looked at the face in front of him that was very similar to Liang Ruhui's and found it hard to refuse.

Unknowingly, he had lifted his steps.

"You can take a look at it. I grew up in this small courtyard, and the dilapidated swing is old. My grandpa made it for my aunt. Later, when I got married, I continued to play with it after my grandpa reinforced it and repaired it."

Xu Bowen stared at the swing with a look of sadness.

"My aunt is a very talented woman here. She has won many awards for calligraphy and painting. My grandpa still has those awards in his study!"

Lin Xi was looking for something to say when she had nothing to say. She was looking for something to stimulate Xu Bowen, just to see his reaction.

Xu Bowen looked back at Lin Xi, "Do you like your aunt very much?"

"I have never seen her. She died when I was born. I just heard what others said. She died alone in a big ravine without even bringing her ashes back, so we don't have anything belonging to my aunt at home. I never dare to mention her at home, my grandparents can’t stand it.”

A man who has been in the political arena for many years, even if he has become the first secretary of a province, it is difficult to control the expression on his face when he hears such words. The heart-wrenching pain makes him clench his fists to prevent himself from losing his composure.

"I'm sorry, because I have never met my aunt, so I am very curious about her and admire her talent. Whenever I mention her, I want to show off. My grandpa asked me to learn calligraphy, but he always said that I couldn't keep up with my aunt. So when I talk about her, I always feel that she is very mysterious and there are always endless topics to talk about.”

Xu Bowen calmed himself down quickly and said calmly, "It's okay, it's understandable."

The second grandma watched Lin Xi chatting with a middle-aged man in front of the second floor window and called her, "Xiaoxi, who are you talking to? There is still something up there. Come up and see if you want more."

"Okay, I'll be up right away."

"Your name is Xiaoxi?"

As soon as Lin Xi finished speaking, Xu Bowen immediately asked.

"Yes, my name is Lin Xi. Sir, please take a look for yourself. I'm going up to pack my things."

Suppressing the hatred in her heart, Lin Xi forced a smile.

Xu Bowen didn't care. He stood in the courtyard as if he was alone in the world.

But in his mind was the woman who was as bright as the girl in front of him.

Beside the stream, there are bright eyes and white teeth, sometimes sketching, sometimes looking at the stream and smiling.

The gurgling, meandering stream is her favorite scene to paint.

When Lin Xi saw him standing stunned in the courtyard, a subtle sneer appeared on his lips. How could a heartless man have the dignity to stand in this courtyard?

If you didn't want him to know his true identity, I would really like to ask him if he knew that his aunt was pregnant back then. How did he manage to marry someone else without telling his pregnant girlfriend?

Murder is heartbreaking. If it weren't for his deception and ruthlessness, why would my aunt go to the mountains while pregnant?

Why did he end up sleeping in that mountain at such a young age?

It doesn’t matter if you don’t want this kind of scumbag, it’s just people like him who are sanctimonious.

Although he looks like a decent man, he is actually the most cold-blooded and ruthless person. The most important thing is the black gauze hat on his head.

When Sun Miaomiao heard from her second grandmother that Lin Xi was talking to someone in the courtyard, she went to the window and looked down.

Seeing Lin Xi coming up, he asked doubtfully, "Hey, Lin Xi, why does this uncle look so familiar?"

"Really? No way, a passerby's face is not the same as the people on the street? Hurry up and clean it up, if you delay it any longer, it will get dark."

Sun Miaomiao felt that Lin Xi was not normal. How could she be so passionate about a passerby?

However, their Linxi family is kind-hearted and never targets anyone. It must be because this uncle is not lovable.

Well, that's the annoying kind!

When Lin Xi came out again holding something, Xu Bowen had already left.

Just as they were about to walk back, a strange phone call came.

Lin Xi saw that it was an unfamiliar number and hung up the phone.

A few seconds later, the account sent another message: If you want to save Shen Yi, go to Zhongzhou Road Citizen Park at five o'clock. Don't be afraid. I'm just a woman who wants to protect herself.

Lin Xi was stunned when she saw the news. Who could be a woman who wants to protect herself?

Chu Xinyi and her daughter are still in the detention center. Who is this woman?
