Red Dust and Sand Sculpture

Li Xichun's eyes finally stayed on Mr. Li. Anyway, this is a person who has not yet integrated into the atmosphere. She moved her red lips and called Dad.

Although it was Mr. Li who shouted, everyone's eyes were on him.

The smile on Li Xichun's lips was cold: "If there's nothing else, shouldn't we go back?"

She is a normal [-] to [-] person.

After a whole night of farce, Mr. Li's complexion was naturally not very good-looking. He stared at Qin Jin with unexpected eyes, after all, he didn't tear his face on the spot, and turned to look at Li Xiangfu: "What are you still doing?"

Li Xiangfu seemed to be understanding: "I'll stay here to talk to Mr. Qin for a while." He sat down beside the bed as he said, "He's been stimulated and needs someone to accompany him."

"..."

Mr. Li pursed his lips into a straight line, and he didn't even open his mouth to reprimand him. Compared with this absurd reason, he has experienced something more outrageous... The good-natured Qin Jin actually sent a distress message to his son.

It was Li Huaichen who made the final decision. He looked at Li Xiangfu and said, "The car can't fit so many people. I'll call someone to pick you up in half an hour."

Li Shasha, who was forcibly taken out of the hotel without getting into the sad atmosphere, asked when she got on the elevator, "Will Daddy go back with you?"

Li Huaichen's speech is always cloudy, and this time he treats children no exception: "It's better for him to leave the information alone than a group of people crowded in the guest room."

Li Shasha understood, but it was Aunt Zhang who didn't understand.

"Excuse me, you still have to run with us at night," Li Huaichen did not forget Aunt Zhang's existence, and said, "Today is considered overtime work, and the wages will be settled at three times."

On the other side, the room where only two people were left was as quiet as before, this time there was no sound of taking a shower.

Li Xiangfu straightened his slightly disheveled hair, remained silent, and waited for Qin Jin to speak first.He didn't believe that the other party would be so bored that in order to attract him, he specially used the fairy jump to set up a game, presumably there was an additional purpose to achieve.

Qin Jinfa was still dripping with water, and it slid down the line of his neck, and the water finally rolled into his clothes.

He himself was not aware of the inadvertent charm that appeared on the individual, so he opened the curtains to keep the room ventilated, and for a long while seemed to be speaking to the boundless night outside the window: "Qin Jiayu is still alive."

It was only six words, and Li Xiangfu had doubts about this result for a long time, but when he really heard the confirmed answer, he couldn't help breathing hard.Qin Jin easily repeated Qin Jiayu's words in a casual tone.

"Don't let us meet?" Li Xiangfu felt funny when he heard this.

Anyone who has received nine years of compulsory education would not use such a twisted method to realize such a childish plot.

Qin Jin: "This is just a pretext."

Li Xiangfu finally had a reaction, and raised his eyebrows: "Then what is the real purpose?"

Qin Jin: "Show your presence."

"..."

"After all tossing for so long, I haven't done a single thing."

Li Xiangfu frowned: "The way to show your presence should be to come out and hang out in person."

The night suppressed the sarcasm in Qin Jin's eyes, but the emotion in his voice couldn't be suppressed: "He doesn't dare to see you for the time being." The voice fell and he turned sideways and added: "It's literally."

Based on Qin Jiayu's current behavior, it is definitely not because of emotion that he dare not meet.Li Xiangfu's first consideration was his family background, and he quickly filtered out this point, and debts and the like were even more outrageous.

Just as he was thinking, Qin Jin took out a small paper bag from his coat pocket and handed it over.

Li Xiangfu opened it, and it was a picture of a baby.

"This is……"

"Chen Ran and Shi Chen's child." Qin Jin: "This child was born abroad and is currently being taken care of by a special person. Not long before the incident, Chen Ran's mother successfully completed the immigration procedures."

Li Xiangfu's eyes darkened: "The procedures are not so easy, and the living expenses abroad are also quite a lot."

Qin Jin nodded: "So this matter is essentially a transaction. Chen Ran's account to the police will only be misleading information and slow down the case."

Li Xiangfu stopped to ask questions, lowered his head and stared at the photo in deep thought. Chen Ran did not directly persecute Li Shasha, but simply chose to abduct her.

In this city under surveillance everywhere, the possibility of her escape is almost zero.

As if thinking of something, Li Xiangfu pursed his lips subconsciously. Since he has already obtained funds from the person who ordered him, the reason for extortion is not valid...

Li Shasha.

There was a sudden movement in his heart.

Could the abduction, including the reason why Qin Jiayu dared not see her, be related to the system?

This thought could only come to mind, and Li Xiangfu couldn't confirm it with Qin Jin face to face.

Through the reflection on the glass window, it is impossible to see any subtle changes in the expressions of the people behind him, and now Li Xiangfu can handle every emotion like a duck in water.

Seeing this, Qin Jin's mouth turned slightly, perhaps even Mr. Li didn't realize that among his several children, the youngest son who seemed to be the most unreliable was the most inestimable one.

In less than half an hour, the pick-up car had already parked outside the hotel, calling and urging.

Li Xiangfu stood up and glanced at Qin Jin. The latter put one hand in his pocket, and said slowly: "I've said everything I need to say, go back and rest early."

Before he was about to walk out of the room, Qin Jin suddenly said, "If you have time tomorrow, you can go to the old house with me."

Li Xiangfu did not refuse.

He has always had more time than expected.

After making such a fuss, the harvest is that the personal restrictions are finally lifted.When Li Xiangfu returned home that night, no one asked about the conversation between him and Qin Jin. On the surface, this incident seemed to be a turning point, but Li Xiangfu knew that everyone had their own investigation plans in private.

Regarding Qin Jiayu, he specifically reminded the system.

Li Shasha has a calmness that is different from his appearance: "Qin Jiayu looks like a pitiful person. Outsiders say that he has a deep relationship with Qin Jin brothers, and that he is a close friend with you. It is actually an illusion. Now he can only use money to settle everything."

He raised his head and looked serious: "And Dad, you have everything except money."

"..."

Li Xiangfu squinted his eyes: "A person who is missing on the surface actually has enough funds to control behind him."

As if in four years, Qin Jiayu completed a huge accumulation of wealth.

"Father, don't underestimate yourself, you are decathlon." After a pause, Li Shasha repeated, "Except for having no money."

"..."

Because of the two questions, the bear boy who could have had a day off was forced to send him to school.

After the attempted abduction happened, Li Shasha was escorted to and from school by a special person, and the school's internal management became stricter.

After seeing him off, Li Xiangfu went to Qin and Jin's appointment.This is not the first time I have visited the old building, but every time I have a different feeling.

The two stood side by side on the balcony and blew the wind for a long time. Li Xiangfu couldn't help but let the other party open the topic every time, his lips moved, and before he could make a sound, Qin Jin walked past him.

With a slight turn of the key, a dusty door was unsealed for the first time after many years, and Li Xiangfu followed curiously.

During the previous visit, his activity area was limited to the living room and the balcony. Other than that, all of them were locked rooms.

The inside of the house is not big, but it is so tidy that it is outrageous.The most obvious one is the bookshelf, which takes up half of the entire room, and each book is carefully divided according to its size and thickness.Spray alcohol, expired hand sanitizer... There are special storage cabinets on the table to store these items.

Li Xiangfu lifted a corner of the dust cover and found that the bed sheet was also of solid color.

Anyone standing here would have an intuition that the owner of the house is obsessive-compulsive.

Qin Jin's words also confirmed this point: "He has serious obsessive-compulsive symptoms in his life."

It is self-evident who this "he" refers to.

The only discordant place is the coaster on the table, the overly bright azure blue does not match the dark tone of the whole room.Li Xiangfu felt a little familiar, so he picked it up and looked at it carefully.

The logo mark in the lower right corner of the coaster has been blurred, and the word 'blue sky' can barely be recognized.

He has an impression of this store. It opened in front of the school when he was in high school. It is a creative coffee shop. If you buy two cups of coffee at one time, you will get a small coaster.

After opening, the back of the coaster is written with a ballpoint pen:

your happiness is the sun in my world. — Presented by Li Xiangfu.

"..."

Qin Jin: "You gave me one too."

As if he was not embarrassed enough, Qin Jin took out a photo from his phone, it was a rose-red coaster, and it said: Eyes are raining for him, but my heart is holding an umbrella for you.

"..."

Li Xiangfu moved his throat and realized a fact: "We used to know each other?"

Qin Jin smiled but wasn't smiling.

Li Xiangfu thought for a while: "So I forgot about both of you brothers, and the bowl of water is quite flat."

The so-called equal treatment is nothing more than that.

"..."

Qin Jin waited for him to speak for the rest of the time, but Li Xiangfu didn't ask any questions about the past until he left.After gaining a better understanding of Qin Jiayu's character, he didn't know what he was thinking.

After lunch at a nearby restaurant together, Li Xiangfu wiped the corners of his mouth and asked, "I'm going to the coffee shop, do you want to go together?"

Qin Jin shook his head: "I still have a meeting this afternoon."

Li Xiangfu took the initiative to pay the bill, and the two parted ways at the intersection.

In the morning, part of the work at hand was temporarily postponed, which made Qin Jin's schedule very full in the afternoon.In the middle of the meeting, the secretary suddenly knocked on the door and came in.

The serious atmosphere of the meeting was temporarily interrupted. Under the eyes of several superiors, the secretary felt that his left and right feet were about to synchronize.This meeting is expected to last for another two hours. After working with the boss for so long, he has some basic understanding. He should tell the other party first.

"There was an accident at Li Xiangfu's side." The secretary went straight to Qin Jin's side, bent down and lowered his voice: "It is said that he fell from the overpass and suffered a brain injury. Now he has been transferred to a private hospital."

The pen in Qin Jin's hand was suddenly tightened, and the tip of the pen was broken due to too much force.The others looked at each other in blank dismay, not understanding what had happened to cause such mood swings in the usually moody boss.

The phone in his pocket was vibrating all the time. Seeing that it was an unfamiliar number, Qin Jin strode out after connecting, and stopped in the stairwell and asked coldly, "Qin Jiayu, do you want to die again?"

There was a moment of silence.

After a while, a very gentle voice sounded: "Mr. Qin, it's me."

Qin Jin's tone was rarely stagnant: "...Li Xiangfu?"

"Yes, it's me."

Qin Jin didn't think that the secretary dared to tease him about this kind of thing, so he patiently waited for the next article.

"I'm afraid you'll be worried when you hear the news... I'm fine, I just scratched my arm a little bit. Actually, I flopped on purpose, so as to make things bigger and let the second brother spread the word."

Qin Jin has faced many opponents with ulterior motives, and can accurately analyze the purpose behind each time, but Li Xiangfu is obviously an exception in his life.

Rubbing between his brows and leaning against the handrail of the stairs, he asked, "Why are you making such a big fuss?"

Li Xiangfu: "Before the abduction case happened, Qin Jiayu once sent a message. The content basically said that he was showing the memories between me and him. When all the past is shown, there will be a break."

Pausing for a while, he asked: "...Qin Jiayu is obsessive-compulsive. Whatever you do, there must be a beginning and an end, right?"

Qin Jin gave an affirmative answer.

"Tomorrow, rumors about my relapse of my old illness and amnesia will spread in the circle. According to normal deduction, he will go back to the first step, starting from sending cactus flowers, and go through the process again."

"..."

"It just so happens that I can take advantage of this time to go to the neighboring city to collect pictures in the name of recuperation. My sister said that their gallery has recently accepted paintings, and with the reputation of being the grand prize of the activity, my paintings can be sold at a good price."

"..."

There was a clicking sound from over there, and it sounded like someone was gnawing on an apple.

Li Xiangfu said while eating: "The human brain is amazing. Next time, I will use the reason of memory confusion. The meme of amnesia can be played for at least three years."

The author has something to say: Li Xiangfu: I want him to know what it means to go back to before liberation.

Villain: ...Three years, do you know how I spent these three years? !
