black under lights

At three o'clock in the morning, Li Xueying opened her eyes in the casino lounge.

The casino ended at six o'clock in the morning, and the people who were excited all night drained their energy, and the souls that had fully vented began to weaken.

Witnessed a sunrise on the sea at seven o'clock, the gambling boat began to serve breakfast, and at the same time set off slowly back to Hong Kong.After waiting for another hour, the cruise ship arrived at the port, and the tourists disembarked and re-boarded the port one after another. They were either full of ambitions or hesitant, no matter what, the dreamlike night was completely brought to an end.

Li Xueying put on a windbreaker, mask, fisherman's hat and sunglasses, and walked slowly among the crowd, then took a taxi and went straight to Xiangfeng Cemetery.

In the distance, he saw a familiar slender figure, and he paused for a long time before walking again.

Li Li's long skirt was flying, and she was slightly surprised when she saw the younger brother who came by her side out of the corner of her eye.

The two looked at each other for a moment, neither of them said anything, and each held three sticks of incense and bowed down.

On the stele, the photo of Li Que smiled as always, as if he had revisited the siblings after a while.

"Father, my sister and I have been safe for the past few months. This year's Hong Kong is different from usual. There seem to be more people. There are so many smugglers, and when they come here, I always think of you. If there is a spirit in heaven, I hope you are all well. Don’t worry about the past, the living have grievances and enmities, you probably have let go of everything, right? Reincarnation is fine, but unfortunately I can’t be your son in the next life.” Li Xueying took out a bag from her bag. A bottle of baijiu, a familiar brand, was Li Que's favorite drink during his lifetime.He unscrewed the cover and poured it on the tombstone, and there were two mouthfuls left, one for himself and one for Li Li.

He put the empty bottle on the tombstone, and the two were silent for a long time.It seems that there is also a habit of mourning. Regardless of whether it is joy or pain, as long as it lasts long enough, a tacit understanding will be cultivated to some extent.

Li Xueying took two steps back, then relaxed, and turned her gaze to Li Li again: "Sister, are you all right?"

"Okay." Li Li whispered to him, "Long time no see, this time I will come to see me in two months."

"Feng Qing is very wary of me, and you don't want to go with me." Li Xueying finally had a faint smile on her face.

"Staying by his side is more useful to you than going with you..."

"I understand." Li Xueying turned sideways.

In the past, he always ran behind his sister. Li Que had to support the whole family, and he was always busy with tasks. Li Li took care of Li Xueying for food and water.Now standing in front of my sister, he was nearly half a head taller than her.

Today's Li Li has long hair waving, mature and full of femininity, she is no longer a young female college student.But only Li Xueying knows all the ups and downs experienced in this change.He once repented and hated his incompetence.In the dark, he couldn't protect himself, let alone his sister.He can't protect anyone.

The wind was blowing slowly, Li Xueying stretched out her hand to caress her sister's face, her eyes gradually softened.

"It's that face again." Li Li chuckled lightly, "Don't look down on me..."

"What's the latest news and movement?"

Li Li shook her head.

Ever since she knew that Li Que had been entangled with Feng Qing due to a grudge during his lifetime, she had been trying to figure out clues by making indirect comments all these years.The two siblings have the right to know the answer no matter what, but it's a pity that Feng Qing is invulnerable and invulnerable to all poisons.As for the past with Li Que, so far, there are limited clues.It was not easy for Feng Qing to make friends when he was young, or in other words, his connections and friends at that time were completely different from what they are now.It seems that he intends to cut off the past and everything.

The longer she was with Feng Qing, the more Li Li understood that Feng Qing must have experienced a big event when he was young.This incident was a turning point in his life.

After getting drunk once, Li Li managed to find a former friend of Feng Qing.But the man only told her drunkenly that Feng Qing had thought about leaving Hong Kong forever and never coming back.In those few years, no one knew where Feng Qing had gone, but only knew that when he returned to Hong Kong, he had changed his appearance and no one could recognize who he was.

Li Li knew that this past must be very important to Feng Qing.It is even very important to her, because Li Que must be involved in Feng Qing's past.It's a pity that the clues are broken so far, and she can't do anything to find out more.

People and people are always so ironic, no matter how close they are, or they live the same daily life, but maybe you don't know another person at all.He didn't know the past, let alone what he was thinking.

The two siblings stood in the empty cemetery for a long time, the sun was shining brightly, and the sky was finally bright.

After a while, Li Xueying took the lead to say goodbye, and Li Li also left in the other direction after he left.

None of them noticed that the man hiding in the shadow of the tree not far away quietly hid behind the big tree, his rough palms stroked the trunk, his beautiful brows frowned, and cigarette butts were scattered all over the ground under his feet.

Someone put his arms around his shoulders and looked wherever he could see: "I told you earlier that today is different from the past, and I think he is doing well without you."

"You know I don't want to talk about this, Luo Xiu."

"Okay." The man standing beside him had pale blond hair, deep facial features, and his face was full of teasing.

After the siblings had left completely, they emerged from behind the shadow of the tree and walked deep into the cemetery.

He walked to a small stone tablet accurately and quickly, took out a glass of wine from behind, poured the stone tablet all over, and said in a deep voice: "Ah Fang, I didn't have time last time, so I brought you wine today."

After speaking, he squatted down and stroked the deep inscription on the top: "I loved taking pictures when I was alive, but in the end I didn't take any pictures."

"People never know when an accident will come, especially people like us, who have this life and no afterlife, who knows when they will disappear." Luo Xiu copied his pockets, "Speaking of which, do you want to change a piece of land for your brother? , You had no money a few years ago, but now you always have money to move him.”

The man didn't speak, just drank silently and toasted three times, and then silently put away the bottle.

Luo Xiu was unwilling to keep his voice down: "Mo, the contract expires tomorrow. I really miss you and don't think about going back to Hawkeye anymore? The fate between you and Hawkeye shouldn't end."

"I'll be back to see Hawkeye." He stood up, "Let's go."

"Go back to Xing's house?"

"Ah."

"I'm leaving tomorrow, good luck."

"Thank you, and I wish you good luck." He finally raised his hand and fist-to-fist with Luo Xiu.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Xing Shaofeng packed up and knocked on the door of Xing's house.

"Master Xing is here? Master Xing hasn't returned home today, maybe in an hour or so, stay for dinner tonight?" The housekeeper eagerly greeted him, but Xing Shaofeng put on his coat and led the way.

"How many times have you come here to lead me?" Xing Shaofeng walked briskly, and ran to the stairs on the second floor, "Take a rest, I will stay for dinner at night, and accompany Ah Qing!"

He hummed a ditty and was in a good mood. He had been working on the boat all night and had a good harvest. He couldn't wait to report the good news to Tong Qing.

Over the years, outsiders knew that Xing Shihuai's wife was sickly and sickly, lying in bed.It's a pity that the two have no children under their knees, and there is no one to take care of them on weekdays.As Xing Shihuai's nephew, Xing Shaofeng's parents passed away early, and he was adopted under Xing Shihuai's family at the age of 16, which is equivalent to the half son of Xing Shihuai and his wife Tong Qing.

Everyone said that Xing Shaofeng was lucky. He inherited the old bean of Inspector Zonghua.

It is also said that Xing Shihuai originally had a son.

But then it was gone.

Otherwise, today's contacts and wealth are the same as Xing Shaofeng's five senses.

Xing Shaofeng should have heard these words, and never took them to heart.

Human feelings are cold and warm, and drinking water is self-knowledge.How could he not know whether Xing Shihuai and Tong Qing treated him sincerely or falsely?Especially Tong Qing, although weak and sick, often bedridden, but kind-hearted and warm-hearted, he treats Xing Shaofeng more like his own son.She is always the most popular hostess of the Xing family. No matter Xing Shaofeng or Xing Shihuai, they treat her like a little girl in the family, as if she will stay young forever.

Xing Shaofeng knocked on the door, and Tong Qing in the study was planting flowers with a glass jug, because at home, she was dressed in a simple and elegant way for makeup, but her pale lips let people know that she was not energetic.

"Shaofeng is here?" Tong Qing turned to wash his hands, cleaned up the soil, and went to the tea room next door with Xing Shaofeng, "I'm so happy today, what good happened?"

"Aunt Qing." Xing Shaofeng acted coquettishly on the table, revealing his nature as soon as he returned home. He didn't look like the all-powerful O Kee Sir, "I was on a mission yesterday and stayed overnight on the cruise ship. I was so sleepy. By the way, I I also ran into Ah Ying, he still looks so attractive, I was almost jealous."

Tong Qing was a little worried when he heard this: "Are you on a gambling boat? Is it dangerous?"

"It's okay, I'm not in the operation team, and few people know my identity." Xing Shaofeng acted like a baby, and his stomach was full of greed, "What time will Uncle Xing get home tonight? I'll stay for dinner and watch a movie with you tonight, okay?" ?”

Tong Qing smiled openly: "Okay, I'll call him later."

Satisfied, Xing Shaofeng chewed the dried tea in the tea room with great relish. He decided to report on his duties tomorrow and relax tonight.

When the knock on the door sounded in the afternoon, Xing Shaofeng had already slept on the sofa in the tea room, and heard Tong Qing coming downstairs and the butler opening the door in a daze.He slipped on his slippers, lazily called Uncle, and went out to greet him.

Xing Shihuai is a traveler, wearing a long leather jacket, his temples have been grey, and he is quite weathered.His appearance today seems to be different from usual, with a kind of complexity that has never been seen before.

Xing Shaofeng went down the stairs, just called twice, and then saw another person behind Xing Shihuai.

The man was actually taller than Xing Shihuai, and he looked very handsome. He was about 30 years old, his face was still sharp and sharp, but his temperament was mixed with a lot of precipitation and sophistication.

"Amo, you met once two years ago." Xing Shihuai turned slightly to let him in, "He will have dinner with us tonight."

Of course Xing Shaofeng and Tong Qing still remember him, but two years ago they didn't realize that this man was so tall. Seeing you today, you have already cultivated a mature demeanor.

Tong Qing understood that since her husband didn't talk about the young man's identity, there must be a reason.She looked at Xing Shaofeng, greeted the guest with a smile, and apologized to him for not being dressed today.Go ahead and ask the kitchen to prepare more dishes.

Although Xing Shaofeng is usually childish, he is very polite at critical moments and knows how to treat guests, so he took the initiative to introduce him to the door.It's just because of professional habits, Xing Shaofeng started to look at him from the beginning.

Xing Shaofeng found that he was not curious about the arrangement of the house, nor was he discussing important matters with Xing Shihuai when looking at the situation. On the contrary, from just now, his eyes had been cast on Tong Qing vaguely, but every time Xing Shaofeng turned to him, he would turn to Tong Qing again. His eyes narrowed very quickly.

Looking at his uncle again, Xing Shihuai's reaction was a little unnatural.

Xing Shaofeng couldn't figure out the way, and he had guessed all kinds of possibilities in his mind.

This answer to the mystery until everyone finished dinner.

"Ah Qing, Ah Feng, I'm actually very happy tonight, our whole family is together." Xing Shihuai hesitated for a moment, before speaking.

Xing Shaofeng and Tong Qing looked at each other without saying a word, just waiting for the next sentence.When Xing Shihuai opened his mouth, the young man beside him also put down his napkin, looking back and forth silently.

Xing Shihuai took a deep breath.

"Ah Ching, I know you have never let go of what happened 25 years ago. We have not had children for so many years. Later, Ah Feng was by your side, watching you improve every day and walk out of the haze of the past. you are happy."

Tong Qing clenched the tablecloth tightly with both hands, she knew that it was no accident that Xing Shihuai brought up their pain of bereavement more than 20 years ago.Xing Shaofeng became vigilant, suspecting that Xing Shihuai had the idea of ​​collecting Qizi today.

"What I'm going to say next may be unbelievable and difficult to accept—" Xing Shihuai grabbed the hand of the young man beside him, fixed his eyes on Tong Qing, "He is still alive, and he is here today. Two When we met years ago, I had confirmed his identity. But due to some joints, I couldn't tell you the truth at that time. Xing Mo was the son we mistakenly thought was dead back then."

The candlelight on the table jumped suddenly, like waking up from a dream.
