The car stopped downstairs of the Su family. Ning Xi took a breath and started to get nervous involuntarily.

The tension reached its peak when Su's mother came to open the door.

"Why are you here?" Su's mother was very displeased when she saw her.

Then he walked back without saying a word.

There was a sound of conversation coming from inside. It should be Su's father asking who it was, and then it stopped abruptly.

Because Ning Xi came in.

Father Su sat cross-legged on the sofa, his eyes gloomy and unfriendly, "Humph, you've been gone for so long, I thought you were dead outside! It's better to die outside, so you don't have to come back and annoy me."

Su's mother also said, "That's right. He hurt us so badly in the beginning. Look at how poor our family is now."

"Those who know us will think we are your adoptive parents. Those who don't will think we are your enemies from your past life!"

The current situation of the Su family is indeed as she said.

In the past, although the Su family was poor, they could still afford a mahogany sofa and a large fish tank in the living room.

Mr. Su likes to drink tea and has a lot of good tea stored at home.

Of course, these were all bought with Ning Xi's money.

But after Su Qiyou went in, all of these were gone. Now the living room was empty, with nothing left.

Ning Xi thought it was pretty good.

"This is how it should be, isn't it?" she said sarcastically.

Mother Su glared at her angrily, "You! You are such a troublemaker!"

Ning Xi looked at him with disdain.

In the past, such words would have hurt her, but now, she no longer felt any pain at all, having gone out and learned a lot.

What kind of damage is this?

Compared to the intrigues outside, it's nothing.

Seeing that she was indifferent, Su's mother wanted to say something even more unpleasant.

At this time, Su Qiyou came out.

He looked at Su's mother disapprovingly and interrupted her, "Mom! She finally came back, why are you saying these unpleasant words?"

When these words were spoken, not only Su's mother was shocked, but Ning Xi was even more shocked.

She even suspected that the person in front of her was not Su Qiyou.

Why would he speak for himself?

In fact, even Su Qiyou himself didn't quite understand it. It was just that ever since he accidentally ran into Ning Xi and came back from the orphanage that day, his mind had been recalling her happy smile.

That smile was like a bolt of lightning, waking him up.

Looking back, he had always focused his attention on himself. Since he liked Ning Xi, he thought she would definitely accept it.

After all, isn't that what she is? For so many years at home, she was like a transparent person, the kind that came when she was called and left when she was dismissed.

He was used to her easy talking.

Su Qiyou even thought that Ning Xiye was enjoying it, until he saw her smile that day, and then he realized that it was not the case.

Thinking of this, he looked at Ning Xi with a complicated expression again, but did not stay there for long before looking away. "Don't look at me like that. It's my sister's memorial day after all."

"She liked you very much before. You finally came back. She must not want us to make such a mess."

Hearing this, Ning Xiqing couldn't help but look up and glanced at the photo on the wall not far away.

The photo is in black and white.

The young girl, in the photo, still maintains her appearance before death, with a bright smile, making people feel that she is still alive.

However, the black and white colors proved all the time that she was dead.

Just realizing this made Ning Xi's heart ache violently.

Several people sat down to eat in silence.

Every time they talked about Su Qiyu's sister, they would always fall silent at the same time. To this day, even her name is rarely mentioned.

Ning Xi ate absent-mindedly during the meal. After the meal, she took a basin and burned paper money.

Suddenly, a man squatted down and said, "Let me help you."

Ning Xi didn't need to look, she knew it was Su Qiyou just by listening to the voice.

"What happened back then..." Ning Xi was about to speak.

Su Qiyou seemed to have guessed what she was about to say and interrupted her, "Let the past be the past. I won't mention it, and you don't mention it anymore."

As he spoke, he looked at the burning flesh in the brazier and said slowly, "Actually, during those days in the drug rehabilitation center, I thought a lot. We shouldn't have become like this."

Who caused all this?

He, Su's father and mother, or the entire Su family may be responsible.

Ning Xi lowered her eyes.

After burning the paper money, Ning Xi left the Su family dejectedly. Before leaving, Su Qiyou stood at the door and looked at her for a long time.

Just as she was about to go downstairs.

He suddenly said, "Ning Xi, don't come back in the future, and forget everything that happened in the past."

Ning Xi turned her head in surprise.

However, Su Qiyou had already closed the door, as if he wanted to break up with her completely, so much so that Ning Xi couldn't even see his expression.

"Are you back? How was the chat?" Ye Wuyou opened the car door, took out a coat and put it on Ning Xi.

A bit of coolness fell on her hair, Ning Xi thought it was something else, looked up, and saw snow flying all over the sky.

She exhaled a breath of hot air and sighed, "It's snowing."

"Well, it's snowing. The temperature is expected to drop to the lowest point tonight. Don't stand here. Let's go back." Ye Wuyou said.

It doesn’t matter if he gets wet in the snow, as his body can handle it anyway, but Ning Xi’s situation is special now, so keeping warm is the priority.

Ning Xicai said "hmm".

Just as I was about to get in the car, I saw thick smoke billowing out from the upstairs, and vaguely, I could see dazzling flames.

Ning Xi's heart tightened, and she had an inexplicable bad feeling, "Is it on fire?"

Ye Wuyou was already calling the fire department.

After reporting a series of addresses, he hung up the phone after a while. Seeing Ning Xi still standing there stupidly, he couldn't help but pull her and said, "Don't stand at the entrance of the passage. The people upstairs are coming down."

Soon, a group of people fled down from upstairs.

The property management also rushed over and checked one by one to see which family members had not come down.

Ning Xi looked everywhere for the faces of the Su family, but couldn't find them.

At this moment, someone shouted, "I know there is another family that hasn't come down yet. It's their house that's on fire! The family's surname is Su. Did you call the fire department? Come and save them!"

boom!

Ning Xi's mind went blank and her body swayed.

Ye Wuyou quickly supported her and let her lean on him, "Ning Xi, cheer up."

"How could it suddenly catch fire...it was fine just now." Ning Xi murmured.

Following the sirens, several fire trucks arrived.

Ning Xi wanted to go with him, but was stopped by Ye Wuyou. He persuaded her, trying to lower her voice, and even heard a hint of pleading in her tone, "Listen to me, stay here and don't go."

"With the firefighters, they will definitely be able to rescue the people. Have you forgotten what your situation is now?" Ye Wuyou coaxed patiently.

With his comfort, Ning Xi took several deep breaths and finally calmed down.
