grief

Qiao Yuxi left Ouyang Liling's residence early in the morning, but did not get any more information from him.

Yi Yan was still missing, and Geng Ye might have to be imprisoned for a while.Only Lou Yi is left, and I hope nothing will happen again.

Thinking of what he said in a fit of anger yesterday, Qiao Yuxi felt really annoyed, and was about to apologize to others.

The living room was empty.According to the past situation, Lou Yi should still be in bed at this time, especially now that no one is watching, it is even more impossible to get up early.

Qiao Yuxi thought about walking to the door, knocked, but there was no response, and pushed the door open, but there was no one there.

Feeling unsure, Qiao Yuxi quickly took out his cell phone and dialed it. The mechanical sound from the receiver aggravated his uneasiness.

The phone came out of his hand and fell to the ground.Qiao Yuxi squatted down, forced himself to calm down, and told himself over and over again, it's okay, it's okay.

The phone rang, and Qiao Yuxi quickly picked it up, looking at the display on the screen, a trace of disappointment slipped through his heart.

For the first time, he didn't expect Ouyang Liling's call.

"Feather, are you here?"

"Ah."

"Remember to eat breakfast, and..."

"Lou Yi is gone." Qiao Yuxi interrupted Ouyang Liling's instructions.

"..."

"Did you do it?" Qiao Yuxi didn't want to ask like this, but he couldn't think of another person.

"..." Ouyang Liling remained silent, not knowing what he was thinking.

Qiao Yuxi took a deep breath: "Liling, if you don't want to torture me to death, just tell me."

"No."

"Then tell me, who is it?"

"……do not know."

"Okay, then listen, now Yi Yan and Lou Yi are missing, Geng Ye is still locked up, if you remember our original oath, rescue them all."

There was another silence on the other side, Qiao Yuxie's heart sank little by little, he was already prepared, as long as Ouyang Liling refused, the relationship between them would really be irreparable.

"...I will do my best." Ouyang Liling's voice was a little low.

"It's not an effort, it's a must!"

"Feather, I'm not as powerful as you think, maybe..."

"Ouyang Liling, there is no one to help me, I only have you..." Qiao Yuxi sat on the ground leaning against the wall, this time, he did not shed tears, he finally knew that no amount of tears could change anything.

"Feather, I'm sorry, I really can't promise you anything, but I will try my best, trust me."

"...I see." Qiao Yuxi drooped his hand holding the phone, letting Ouyang Liling call his name on the opposite side without responding.

Ouyang Liling hung up the phone, looked at Yuan Kun who was waiting at the side: "I'm afraid something will happen to Yuxie, these days, you don't have to follow me."

"Yes."

Ouyang Liling thought for a while, and then said: "Be careful, don't be found out, I don't want him to misunderstand again."

"clear."

God, it's getting colder and colder.

A chill came from the floor, and Qiao Yuxi stood up.

How he wished that Lou Yi hid just because of what he said last night, to make him worry about punishing him, or because he was afraid that he would really do something and dare not show up, it would be better than disappearing like Yi Yan .

However, his wish did not come true. For five days in a row, no one entered this room, including Ouyang Liling.

Qiao Yuxi was lying on the bed, looking out at the gloomy sky through the window, recalling the short time the four of them spent together.

It seems that after the four of them finally got together, he was silent and absent-minded most of the time.When others tried their best to make him happy, he just smiled perfunctorily.

If you have never lost it, it is difficult to understand the meaning of cherishing. He understands now, but I hope it is not too late.

He wanted to see Geng Ye, and now only Geng Ye could be sure that he was safe and sound.

Walking into the detention center, I couldn't tell what it was like. He had spent three years in prison, which was a stain on his life, but he shouldn't have suffered it.

He couldn't figure out what role Ouyang Liling played in the incident that year, and he didn't know how true the friendship he felt now was.Everyone defends everything from their own point of view, including himself. No one can tell who is true and who is false.

Now he can only be sure of one thing, it is impossible for him and Ouyang Liling to go back to the past, let's not speculate on Ouyang Liling's thoughts for the time being, his unreserved trust and dependence on Ouyang Liling has already deteriorated .

Sitting in the visiting room, Qiao Yuxi clasped his hands, a little nervous.He couldn't tell Geng Ye the truth, and he couldn't let him see it.It's not difficult for him to fake it, provided that he doesn't face the person he cares about.

"Yuxi, why is it just you? Haven't you found Yi Yan yet?" Geng Ye asked the question that had been pent up in his heart for a long time as soon as he saw Qiao Yuxi.

"Sit down first." Qiao Yuxi pointed to the opposite side, smiled at him, and signaled him to be calm.

Geng Ye walked across and sat down.

"How have you been these few days?" Qiao Yuxi changed the subject.

"Leave me alone, did you find Yi Yan?"

"...I found it." Qiao Yuxi clasped his hands tightly again, anticipating that it would be impossible to bypass this topic, and continued according to what he had planned in advance, "Yi Yan and Lou Yi were originally planning to come together, but they If I want to go to work, I will come by myself first."

"That's good, as long as Yi Yan is fine." Geng Ye heaved a sigh of relief, the heart that had been hanging over the past few days finally let go.

"Geng Ye, you have to take care of yourself, don't be so impulsive..."

"I know, Yuxi, don't worry, I'm fine."

Seeing Geng Ye still indifferent, Qiao Yuxi thought, how can he rest assured.

Maybe Ouyang Liling is right.

Because they are friends and brothers, Ouyang Liling can ignore Geng Ye's unreasonable troubles again and again, but if it were other people, no one would tolerate it.

"Yuxi, why are you losing weight again?" Geng Ye crossed the table and grabbed Qiao Yuxi's hand, "They won't keep me locked up for long, and I'll be out soon. Don't worry about me, I'm really fine."

Qiao Yuxi nodded and held Geng Ye's hand: "Geng Ye, do you blame Ouyang Liling?"

He didn't want to ask this question at first, but he couldn't bear the thought that this matter might deepen the conflict between the two of them again.

"Why did you mention him again?" Geng Ye's face was pulled down, obviously unwilling to bring up any topic about Ouyang Liling.

Looking at Geng Ye's expression, Qiao Yuxi sighed inwardly.Some things cannot be kept silent, otherwise it will only deepen the misunderstanding.Qiao Yuxi understood that Ouyang Liling would never explain.

"Geng Ye, Li Ling didn't intend to harm you by doing this, he just..."

"You don't need to make excuses for him. I know better than you what kind of person he is." Geng Ye thought for a while and asked again, "Did he do what happened to Yi Yan?"

"...No." Qiao Yuxi himself was not sure and lacked confidence, but after a brief silence, he still spoke quite firmly.

"If it's not him, who else could it be?"

Qiao Yuxi withdrew his hand: "Geng Ye, you have too much prejudice against him, in fact, Liling him..."

"Yu Zhi, don't defend him everywhere, he is no longer the former Ouyang Liling!"

"Geng Ye..."

"No, he's still Ouyang Liling, but he covered it up too well before, so we didn't find out."

"..."

Qiao Yuxi couldn't speak anymore, in fact, no matter what he said, Geng Ye wouldn't listen, all explanations were meaningless.Maybe just like Ouyang Liling once said, Geng Ye believed that every word Ouyang Liling said was justifying his actions, maybe it was because of this that Ouyang Liling didn't want to waste any more words.

"Where did Yi Yan go before?"

"Just went out with a few friends." Qiao Yuxi thought for a while, "He really wanted to see Li Ling, but he didn't see him, and accidentally lost his phone..."

"Really?"

"Yeah." Qiao Yuxi nodded, avoiding Geng Ye's gaze, "You don't have to worry about Yi Yan, he's fine. You have to remember to restrain your temper."

"I know, don't worry about me. It's you, stop contacting Ouyang Liling." Geng Ye remembered Ouyang Liling's expression when he was in the police station that day, and frowned, "I see clearly, he put The methods used to deal with people in the market back then were all used on the few of us."

"He's not like this..." Qiao Yuxi couldn't help but want to argue for Ouyang Liling.

"Yu last, what's so good about him, why do you insist on identifying him!" Geng Ye became anxious again, "He is a complete bastard, if you keep getting entangled with him, we all will die sooner or later In his hands!"

"..." Qiao Yuxi opened his mouth, but did not make a sound. He did not come here to argue with Geng Ye.

"Feather, just listen to me once, okay?"

"……I see."

Qiao Yuxi left the detention center and decided to go directly to Ouyang Liling. He could not obey Geng Ye's request, nor could he wait any longer.

It is impossible for Yi Yan and Lou Yi to offend anyone at the same time. Even if there is a dispute in the mall, it is absolutely impossible for the two of them to escalate to the point of kidnapping according to their temperament.

If they were really taken away by Ouyang Liling, that's all. If not, Qiao Yuxi couldn't imagine the consequences.

Ouyang Liling's answer was always ambiguous, this time, Qiao Yuxi had to ask clearly.

Qiao Yuxi didn't know that when he first appeared at Ouyang Liling's residence, someone had already reported this news to Ouyang Liling.He was even more unaware that what awaited him was a double shock both visually and spiritually.
