There are still five weeks left before the due date, and this period of time is extremely difficult for Lin Ai.

Although everything in the pregnancy test was normal and the doctor told him to wait for the delivery without any other psychological burden, he was still restless and always felt that something bad was going to happen.

Fu Sili became busy again, and could only check on Lin Ai's physical condition by phone every day, and occasionally stayed at home when he had time, and he always pestered Lin Ai to eat and sleep, hardly letting him stay out of sight.

The baby crib is placed in the room facing the sun, and the items chosen are all in neutral pink blue. Lin Ai did not follow the doctor's advice to do the gender identification of the fetus. He and Fu Sili hoped that there would be surprises when welcoming the baby. .

During the period, Fu Sili's grandfather also sent a lot of supplements and baby products, which were all placed in another room.

Fu Sili didn't speak, no one dared to move, only Lin Ai would sneak in occasionally, pick out a few handy gadgets and put them in the crib.

Regarding the matter of Fu Zhenyuan's return to the group, Fu Sili rarely mentioned it, and seemed to be very afraid of the current situation.But Lin Ai clearly remembered that when he was in the susceptible period, he clearly missed the warm time with his grandfather.

I don't know if it's because Fu Zhenyuan and Shenghua continued to have a good relationship, and now the relationship between the grandfather and grandson is deadlocked. Fu Sili has shirked his proposal to see Lin Ai several times.

Fu Zhenyuan also called Lin Ai, usually before he could finish his opening remarks, Fu Sili single-handedly cut them off to stop all communication between them.

This made Lin Ai feel annoyed and funny, the grandpa and grandson were exactly the same naive.

On New Year's Eve, Fu Sili arranged a fireworks show in front of the villa. In the sky filled with fire and trees and silver flowers, he embraced Lin Ai from behind and whispered his New Year's wishes to him.

Lin Ai originally hoped to hear some sweet words, but Fu Sili repeated the auspicious words of wishing his mother and child a safe and smooth delivery over and over again.

"It's annoying to talk too much..." Lin Ai glared at him, "Do you also have prenatal anxiety?"

The man smiled and said nothing, his eyes were bent in the fireworks.

The brilliance flashed across his pitch-black pupils, and the clear and fragmented light shone like a fleeting shadow, shaking Lin Ai's mind slightly.

"Then I will give birth earlier, so that you can feel at ease sooner... um..."

Before he could finish speaking, Fu Sili's kiss stuck in his throat.

"Don't talk nonsense--" the man taught him with a serious face when the new year came at midnight.

"Tch, sleep, sleep..."

……

In winter, it usually dawns very late.

There is no light source outside the floor-to-ceiling windows, only the smoggy blue sky and the large crow-colored green plants near the villa.

Fu Sili was standing in front of the window smoking a cigarette, his expressionless face was reflected in the glass, with the habitual indifference and dignity revealed between his brows.

Assistant Xu stood silently behind him. After a long time, he heard a soft hiss. Fu Sili snuffed out the cigarette butt into the ashtray he was holding.

"Just tonight." He heard the man whisper, more like talking to himself, "I can't wait any longer, otherwise..."

Fu Sili didn't say the following words, but Assistant Xu's heart was already aroused, and he understood his worries.

"Please don't worry—" Assistant Xu comforted him, "Everything is within the plan. Excluding other charges, the amount of misappropriation of public funds in the past few years alone is enough for him..."

Hearing this, Fu Sili nodded, and asked in a flat tone, "Please hire the best lawyer team, and be sure to shut his mouth."

"clear."

Beginning of the new year.

Due to the lack of a male owner, the Fu residence became more and more deserted, and even the fountain pool in the back garden dried up for a long time and was full of dust.

The servant buried his head and hurried past under the eaves of the corridor, his steps were very light, for fear that if he was not careful, he would be furious.

Compared to their fears, Bai Gu's mood today is very good.

He and Qi Song made an appointment for dinner to watch the night view on the roof of the World Trade Center, where the lights were dim and colorful, and it was their favorite place to go when they first came to City A.

University living expenses are often in short supply, and they have no money to spend in the high-end sky restaurant on the top floor, so they hold hands and walk back and forth on the glass path outside a few times, admiring the bustling world outside the transparent glass.

At this time, Qi Song would coax him and say, Xiaoou, as long as you like, we will come every year.

Xiaoou, sooner or later, I will hold your hand and walk into this restaurant openly and order your favorite dessert.

Xiaoou, I will give you whatever you want.

Such an oath ended in the year she married Fu Sili.

Qi Song and he have never been to the top floor of the World Trade Center again, as if looking at them any more is a blasphemy to their sweet past.

This year is different. After the divorce this year, everything can start all over again.

White Gull chose the evening dress for a long time before he decided to wear the white suit that had been hanging in the closet.

He remembered that Lin Ai also wore a similar white dress, which was well tailored and neatly trimmed, which set off the whole person's demeanor, and anyone who saw it would be amazed.

Bai Gu raised his face and approached, carefully scrutinized himself in the mirror who was also in a white suit, his expression gradually changed from initial anticipation to gloomy and cold.

Smiling in the mirror, he said softly, "Sure enough, it's still not the same..."

The downstairs wall clock struck seven times, and it was time to leave for the World Trade Center.

Before leaving, he took out a black velvet jewelry box from the safe, which contained all the gifts that Qi Song had given him over the past few years.

Among them was a piece of rabbit diamond hairpin, the brand was not expensive, but it was his favorite, it was bought by Qi Song when he got his first salary.

Bai Gu never liked hairpins, and always thought they were too fancy and cumbersome. It wasn't until he saw Lin Aidai a few times before that he slowly began to accept this ancient European style of dress.

It turns out that the small hairpin has such a great effect, it can instantly sweep away the old-fashioned temperament, and then become lively and delicate.

After dressing up properly, the newly hired driver was already waiting downstairs. Bai Gu packed up his mood, got into the car, and took advantage of the nightfall to drive towards the World Trade Center in the most prosperous area.

At the same time, another group of people also rushed to Qi Song's residence and stopped the car before he was about to drive out of the underground garage.

"Is it Mr. Qi Song?" The man in police uniform knocked on the glass of the Audi car. "There is evidence to suspect that you are involved in multiple crimes such as embezzlement of public funds. Please come with us."

Qi Song didn't answer, just sat stiffly in the driver's seat, his face was pale, he twisted the car key with trembling hands, trying to start the car again.

The window glass was knocked a few more times.

"Mr. Qi Song, please get out of the car. Now you are being summoned orally according to the law."

"Please stop your behavior immediately and go to the Public Security Bureau for investigation... Otherwise, we will summon you forcibly according to the law."

"Wait..." Qi Song opened the car window and begged them with difficulty, "Can you delay for a night, just one night... I have something urgent to deal with."

"Please get out of the car—"

Qi Song turned a deaf ear, took out his cell phone from his pocket, and was about to dial a series of numbers, when the car door was forcibly opened, and he was dragged out of the car by twisting his arms.

The phone fell in the car, and the screen just lit up, showing two unread messages.

— I don’t know if the night scene tonight is still as beautiful as it was four years ago.

-I am looking forward.Brother Qi Song, what about you?

Tonight, Bai Ou waited for a long time on the top floor of the World Trade Center, but did not see Qi Songlai.

When I dialed his mobile phone number, there was no one answering it, until it finally turned off.

It was eleven o'clock at night.

He raised his eyes and looked at the world outside the glass plank road. It was still brightly lit and bustling.

The candlesticks in front of the dining table were almost burnt out, and there was a light layer of lamp oil. A waiter came to ask him in a low voice if he needed to serve the meal in advance, because there were other people's appointments in the back, but he kept a cold face again and again. declined.

"I have money. I can sit as long as I want."

The last time, before anyone came to the table, White Gull scolded in a low voice, "I've said it several times, I'm waiting for people... If they want to line up, just go in line..."

"Don't wait," the visitor replied, "he won't come."

Bai Gu looked up in surprise, and stood in front of her was a mixed-race girl with profound facial features. Her eye sockets were red and swollen, and her lips were white, as if she had just cried.

"Hathaway..." Bai Gu was very surprised, and felt vaguely in his heart that something was wrong. "Why are you... Qi Song him..."

"You two have done a good job." Hathaway sneered, sat down, looked at him with folded arms, and asked, "You divorced Fu Sili, what does it have to do with my husband Qi Song? Why did you drag him into the water as well?" ?..."

"Don't talk nonsense." Bai Ou stared at her sharply, and asked word by word, "What happened to Qi Song?"

"He was arrested. The surname Fu said that he embezzled public funds, was suspected of fraud and other crimes... he was just arrested tonight." Hathaway sobbed and said, "He told me to come here to find you, and told you not to wait for him gone."

"He also said, let you take all the things he gave you, and go abroad to avoid the limelight...Leave him alone..."

Bai Ou didn't speak, his eyes were still full of confusion and shock, as if he didn't realize that the person who was sweetly talking to him before was about to be separated from each other.

His heart started to throb slowly, he put his palm on his chest, and adjusted his breathing with some difficulty.

"I won't go..." Bai Gu took a breath and said, "I'll give you a sum of money, and you take the children abroad..."

Before he finished speaking, he tilted his body and fell to the side, unsteadily falling from the chair to the ground.

The flame in the candlestick trembled a few times uncomfortably, and was also extinguished in a panic.
