Ninth Symphony

Chapter 39 CHP39 Alienation

Reunions between people are often full of drama.

In addition to this, as a pair of "prospective lovers" who have long been known to be interesting to each other although they have not been publicly announced, Wu Yi and Xi Yin have an extra layer of feeling-embarrassment.

When we first met, we might not have had time to understand it in detail, but as the time we spend together increases, this embarrassment becomes more and more obvious, making people at a loss and even speechless.

Wu Yi stood by the window, looking at Xi Yin who was sitting on the chair, he couldn't look away, and couldn't open his mouth.

It has been more than 10 minutes since I entered the study.But apart from the first two sentences, there was no other conversation between them.

It seemed that suddenly, no one knew how to speak.

Or, no one is willing to speak first to break the silence, because they all know that once they start talking, there may not be any easy topics.

But procrastinating is obviously not an option.

About a quarter of an hour later, Xi Yin coughed lightly first, waited, stood up and walked to Wu Yiyi, looked at him calmly and asked, "Brother Angus, what do you want to talk to me about?" ?”

Before Wu Yi could speak, he added another sentence: "I don't want to talk about how I disappeared, where I was in the past three years, and why I didn't come home for the time being. When Xiao Le comes back, I will Let me tell you again."

Wu Yi didn't expect him to block back all the questions he wanted to ask most at once, his expression became a little ugly, his lips moved and pursed, he lowered his eyes and thought for a while before saying: "Okay, wait for these Let's talk when Xiao Le comes back. Can you tell me first, who is that Ji Shi? Why are you with him?"

Xi Yin seemed to have thought that he would ask this next question, so she was not surprised at all. She only thought for a moment as if organizing her words, and then said: "Ji Shi, he is Ji Mingan's son. I am with him for a purpose. It should be said that the two of us are now in a relationship of using each other and taking what we need.”

"...Ji Mingan's son..." Wu Yi repeated, staring straight at Xi Yin, hesitant to speak.

To be honest, he had already guessed this answer before, but it was still hard for him to accept it when Xi Yin said it himself.

Shouldn't Ji Ming'an be Xi Zhuoyun's deadly enemy?Moreover, regarding the murder of Xi Zhuoyun and his wife three years ago, it was deduced that the most likely perpetrator was Ji Mingan, who had just escaped from prison not long before that.

It's just that after the death of Xi Zhuoyun and his wife, Ji Ming'an also completely disappeared. So far, he has not heard any news related to him, and this clue has been cut off.

If Xi Zhuoyun and his wife were really killed by Ji Mingan, where is he now?Why did his son Ji Shi get involved with Xi Yin?And Xi Yin himself, when he said "use each other, each takes what they need", what reason would the two of them use each other?What can each get what it needs?

It is reasonable for the Ji family to want the "collection" accumulated for generations from the Xi family, but what does Xi Yin want from the Ji family?He should not be short of what they have, and Ji Shi should not use the whereabouts of his own father as a bargaining chip——

——Wait, it seems...not necessarily.

The so-called top beam is not straight and the bottom beam is crooked. Ji Mingan's attitude towards Ji Hengsheng was used as a reference. The Ji family's "disobedience" tradition may have been in the genes and passed down from generation to generation.

Wu Yilian thought of this and couldn't help but subconsciously sighed. He felt helpless as he watched Xi Yin sinking into the mire but didn't know how to drag him out. The boy who stayed there for a while said, "Xiaoyin, I know that I am not qualified to ask you to do or not to do anything. I am just worried about your safety. Can you tell me what you and Ji Shi are doing together now? Is it dangerous?"

After hearing this, Xi Yin turned around to look at him, and asked seriously, "Brother Angus, do you believe me?"

At this moment, Wu Yi's mind quickly flashed the fact that his father was killed. Intellectually, he had already guessed that Xi Yin must be related to this incident, but then he replied involuntarily: "Of course I believe you."

"Okay. Then let me tell you, what I'm doing now will be dangerous, but it's all within my control." Xi Yin pondered for a moment, "As for how it will develop in the future, we will wait until we get further information. I couldn't give you an accurate estimate before."

Wu Yi: "Xiaoyin... are you investigating the case of Uncle Yun and Aunt Yun?"

Xi Yin nodded: "Yes."

At this point he has nothing to hide.

But hearing him readily admit it, Wu Yi had no way to persuade him, after all, this was a reason that was difficult to refute both emotionally and rationally.

It didn't look like he had any other options either.

Wu Yi thought for a long time, "Let me help you." He said to Xi Yin.

Xi Yin frowned immediately: "No—" He was halfway through the sentence when the phone in the study room rang, and Xi Yin mouthed "wait a moment" to Wu Yi, then picked up the receiver and put it to his ear, "Yes I."

"..." After saying something over there, Xi Yin's face darkened instantly.

Wu Yi didn't know if the person on the phone was still talking, but Xi Yin was quiet on the other end for a full minute before finally saying, "I see."

"What's the matter?" Wu Yi asked after waiting for him to hang up.

Xi Yin lowered his head, and after a long while, he clenched his fists and said in a steady voice, "The identity of the corpse has been confirmed, it's Uncle Zhong."

"Xiaoyin..." Wu Yi was stunned for two seconds before reaching out his hand to hug him, but Xi Yin dodged to the side calmly, and continued calmly: "Uncle Zhong's death was an accident. It has to be reconsidered, and the problems to be faced next may be more difficult."

Wu Yiyi was very at a loss for this kind of reaction from him, and even felt some unknown fire in his heart, so he couldn't help raising his voice: "Do you have to do this? Even in front of me, do you have to be so calm? ?!"

Xi Yin was taken aback by his "yelling", probably because he hadn't heard him say that to him since he was a child, and after a few seconds of digestion, his face returned to normal, and asked lightly: "Brother Ang, in your opinion, If I don't calm down now, how should I react? Break down? Or hysteria?"

"I didn't say that." Wu Yi was a little annoyed at his failure to control his emotions just now, and now he lowered his voice with some guilt, and the voice line was also very relaxed: "Xiaoyin, I just don't want to see you deliberately make yourself I hide my true emotions, especially from my presence..."

Xi Yin: "What am I hiding?"

"Uncle Zhong is gone, you must feel bad."

"It's uncomfortable, but it's acceptable." Xi Yin's eyes gradually settled down, and even the temperature seemed to drop by a fraction, which made his tone and voice sound more cruel and unfeeling, "Angkor, You should still remember what happened after my parents passed away. At that time, did you see me have any overreactions?"

"At that time, you..."

As soon as he said this, Wu Yi recalled that when Xi Zhuoyun and his wife had an accident, the two brothers Xi Yin and Xi Le were taken to identify the corpse after the body was discovered. Xi Le almost stepped into the door of the morgue. It turned red, and although I tried my best not to make too much noise, the tears couldn't stop flowing down.In contrast, Xi Yin seemed too calm.

He maintained an unusually calm posture throughout the whole process, neither crying nor shouting, and even his expression didn't seem to fluctuate too much, he just stood quietly by the side with his arms around Xi Le, comforting his younger brother softly from time to time.

Wu Yi still remembered what he said to Xi Le at that time: Don't be afraid, there is still me.

But after that week, he disappeared.

Xi Yin's current state is very similar to that of three years ago.

Wu Yi suddenly felt palpitations, wondering if Xi Yin would disappear from his world again in a few days?If he really disappeared again, would he still have the ability to wait again?Besides, even if he is still willing to wait and can wait, who can guarantee that he will wait next time?In case anything happens to Xi Yin - in case he doesn't come back...

"Xiaoyin!" Wu Yi was frightened by his own thoughts, couldn't help but stepped forward and grabbed Xi Yin's arms, stared at him anxiously and worriedly and said quickly: "I really can't see through your thoughts now. , I don’t know what you plan to do next, but can you promise me that no matter what you want to do this time, don’t hide it from me! Uncle Yun, Aunt Yun, and Uncle Zhong, we will solve it together! You let me Let me help you, don't go secretly investigating behind everyone's back by yourself, okay?"

"Kor Angkor, you're thinking too much." Xi Yin brushed his hand away effortlessly, turned her face away and said coldly, "You can't be with me, there is a reason why I chose Ji Shi as my companion, He meets the conditions in my heart, but you are not yet."

Wu Yi felt as if his heart had been stabbed hard by a sharp thorn. The pain made him gasp, and he gritted his teeth and asked, "What conditions do you need?"

Xi Yin didn't look at him, turned his body almost completely away from him, and said clearly: "First of all, the most basic requirement is not to hold me back in action. Angkor, you have always been smart, but Cleverness can't block a knife or dodge a bullet, if I take you with me, it's like finding a burden for myself."

Wu Yi's eyes flashed wildly, but he still refused to give up and said, "...But besides this, I can help you in other aspects!"

However, Xi Yin rebuffed mercilessly: "There is no need for other aspects. Ji Shi's brain is very good, and I am not stupid. The two of us together are enough to solve the problem, and we don't need help."

Wu Yineng could feel that he was determined, and there was a faint layer of despair in his heart that came from being abandoned by his beloved...

He had previously comforted himself that Xi Yin had no choice but to not contact him for the past three years, but now it seems that there is no such thing as "a last resort", only "unwillingness".

"Why..." After a long silence, Wu Yi asked this question in a low voice.He heard his own voice was particularly bitter in the empty study room, as if it had spread to every corner here...

Why do you want to alienate me on purpose?

Xi Yin could hear the meaning behind his words.

It just so happens that this is also the topic that Xi Yin intends to clarify with Wu Yi this time, and taking advantage of his opportunity to ask questions, he can answer him logically.

"Kor Angkor, it's not suitable anymore." Xi Yin finally turned back and looked at Wu Yi face to face and said indifferently.

I am no longer good enough for you.
