I thought I was a jerk

From that night on, the Yan family began to experience bad luck.

The cooperation was negotiated, but the other party would rather breach the contract and pay compensation than continue to follow up; the original supplier suddenly ran out of stock, and they would never let go of the negotiation; all the financing contracts applied for were called back within three days, and none of them were completed.In addition to the economic blockade, the chain of contacts has also been broken.The circle that Yan Sen originally squeezed into was intentionally or unintentionally excluded, and there was no way to do it. Instead, a friend who was married to him hinted to him in a subtle way: Brother Yan Sen, stop doing wasted work and ask if you have offended something these days people.

Although Yan Sen was arrogant, he also knew how to advance and retreat. Those who were suppressed were those who had no background and were not as good as himself. He really didn't know which god or Buddha to offend.When he returned home full of depression, full of gloom, he was so frightened that the words and expressions that had been on tenterhooks these days could not collapse.

The psychological pressure of words is already great.He really wanted to hide the mess he had committed, and the bodyguards and attendants who followed him were kept silent and dared not mention it at all.But Yan's family was in bad luck one after another, and his father brought his troubles at work home. He was trembling, fearing that his legs would be broken if he was discovered, so he took the initiative to ask his father to confess to offending people that night.

——Sure enough, he was beaten to death by Yan Sen, but it was Yan's mother who stopped him and managed to get up.

Knowing the crux of the matter, of course we can't sit still.Yan Sen went to LM to investigate and found out that that night it was the young master of the Xue family who brought gifts and his troubled son to the Xue family to plead guilty.

Xue Zhengjing was busy with affairs, and the person who received them was the young master of the Xue family, who could be regarded as half of the person in charge.

After Yan Sen apologized honestly, Xue Fu's expression changed.

"You, are you bullying my younger brother like this?" He gritted his teeth.

There are actually quite a few people who know about Xue Ci leaving the Xue family.But at the level of the Yan family, the news is not very well informed, and he doesn't bother to inquire, and no one has the courage to ask people about Xue's private affairs every day.Right now, Yan Sen still doesn't know about Young Master Xue leaving the Xue family, so he is very panicked.

Xue Fu is different.He thought that the Yan family and the Yan family knew about this.

On this level, Xue Ci was bullied by others before he left for a long time.Xue Fu was worried about Xue Ci at first, and felt that these two were bullying others, and even came to inquire about Xue's attitude, and wanted to pinch A Ci as a soft persimmon.The expression on his face suddenly turned cold, and he drove the two out directly.

And remember revenge, those who do not keep their hand in the follow-up will be avenged.

From that day on, Yan Jia realized that he was not only unlucky, but double unlucky.

There was a Yan family looking for bad luck, the more Xue Fu thought about it, the more he couldn't bear it.He formally mentioned it to Father Xue again, even if it was a trick, he had to bring Ah Ci back to Xue's house first.

Xue Zhengjing had a strange look on his face, as if he was angry or annoyed.He slammed his fingertips on the table and said after a long while, "I see."

·

Xue Ci and Xie Wenhan had been "hanging out" for many days, and finally they were ready to return to Beijing.

The few belongings were packed and sent to consignment, but the majority of them were souvenirs from his and Xie Wenhan's visits these days, such as the gravel from the melting cave.

Xie Wenhan is also planning to return to Beijing in the near future, but apart from packing his luggage, he has another important thing to do—this is the only time after Xie Wenhan came to Zhoucheng, he didn't stay with Xue Ci all day piece.

He went to see his mother.

Over the years, Xie Wenhan came to see her less and less frequently, so that even if Mrs. Xie's spirit improved a lot, she couldn't clearly recall Xie Wenhan's appearance.

But it's also hard for her to resent.

After all, Xie Wenhan had someone take good care of her, and her daily necessities of life were excellent, and she was not lacking in material things.

What's more, as long as people who know about those things in the past... I'm afraid they won't think it's strange that Xie Wenhan seldom visits her.

Even Mrs. Xie knew it well.

When Xie Wenhan came to see her, Mrs. Xie was still worshiping in the church, and the sound of hymns came from the half-closed door. In addition to the singing of the elderly, occasionally the voices of children could be heard.

After being baptized all afternoon, Mrs. Xie returned to the nursing home.

She is not in good health, and the latest test results show that she is no longer fit to go out.But losing her faith is a way for her to destroy her body faster than illness, so she still follows the schedule of daily worship.

When Mrs. Xie came back, she saw the handsome young man who was sitting at the table, flipping through the book indifferently, and felt scared for a moment.

Ever since she was healed, she became more and more afraid of Xie Wenhan.

Not only because whenever she sees this child, she will recall her past sins.It's more because Madam Xie occasionally feels that... he is the sin itself.

She recalled countless times the source of Xie Wenhan's blood.When she was dizzy, her eyes would flicker and flicker, and then the diagnosis sheet that the doctor showed her the other day drifted past.

The situation is not optimistic.

Facing the only son she had raised for several years, Mrs. Xie felt a little melancholy.After a long while, she carefully stood beside Xie Wenhan, and said:

"I'm running out of time."

Xie Wenhan didn't react much, just closed the book in his hand, and said in a calm voice, "I will hire the best medical team for you, I believe you will be safe and sound."

Even when talking about this kind of topic, Xie Wenhan's face was extremely cold, without any emotion.It is true that ironing posts are ironing posts, but apart from being polite, there is really nothing left, so there is no reluctance or sadness.

Madam Xie smiled wryly again, her voice was austere, "I know my own body best, so I don't need to consume it anymore. After I died, I also drew up a suicide note, leaving all my property to you."

Mrs. Xie doesn't know yet, maybe in the past, that huge amount of cash flow was still helpful to Xie Wenhan.But now Xie Wenhan no longer lacks that money.She still couldn't see any grateful expression on Xie Wenhan's face, she was a little disappointed, but she continued: "Before I die, I still want to tell you the secret I have been keeping all along, about your life experience."

This was something Xie Wenhan didn't expect.

His expression moved slightly, and his dark eyes looked at Xie Mu again.Madam Xie didn't pause for long, with a miserable look on her face, "I'm actually your adoptive mother."

Xie Wenhan stood up.

The news was so sudden that Xie Wenhan was a little taken aback.

He used to be very eager for family affection, although he no longer cares so much about it now, but the missing piece of wood finally made him react a little bit.The Adam's apple rolled slightly, Xie Wenhan looked cryptic, "Talk."

Fortunately, Mrs. Xie is still immersed in grief, and she didn't look at Xie Wenhan's expression, or else she would be so frightened by his fierce aura at this time, she just sighed and said: "Your mother is my lifelong good friend. , so I entrusted you to me. The cause of her death... I suspect it has something to do with your father."

Just this sentence also reveals an ominous meaning.Compared with Xie Wenhan's original life experience, it is not so bright and open.

His expression remained unchanged.

"continue."

Mrs. Xie also didn't notice that Xie Wenhan's tone was unusually calm. She was too tired, so she only picked the main points, "Your father is from the Bai family, the second master of the Bai family. And the Bai family... none of them are normal. people."

Speaking of this, Mrs. Xie still gritted her teeth, "In the future, you must stay away from the Bai family, and stay away from them all."

To be the former Xie Wenhan, he knew nothing about the Bai family.Naturally, there is nothing to do but be vigilant except being at a loss.

But for the current him, he had vaguely heard about the Bai family before, although the words were vague, it was enough for Xie Wenhan to outline a general image.

The Bai family is powerful, with a lot of money, a noble family, and a detached status.

But there is a well-known disease.

The closer the Bai family is, the more insane they are.

Xie Wenhan's expression darkened.

sickness, madness...

His lips and tongue were filled with the smell of blood.

Xie Wenhan absolutely didn't want to get involved with the Bai family, he was able to maintain his current life which was hard won.But it was too late for Mrs. Xie to tell him about this matter, it was too late for Xie Wenhan to make any arrangements.

And what he didn't expect was that when he was still thinking about how credible and true Mrs. Xie's words were, he was stopped by someone on the way out of the nursing home.

It's really a house leak that happens to rain all night.

"Ask Master Han."

The two cars almost collided, but the lunatic who stopped him got out of the car and spoke calmly.

The man was dressed in a Tang suit, and the bodyguard next to him raised the umbrella a little higher, exposing his pale skin and gray hair.

His facial features are upright and he looks very elegant.Staring at Xie Wenhan closely, his age is obviously at most 40 years old, but his eyes are like a dying old man, full of grayness and old age.He looked at Xie Wenhan quietly like this, and suddenly said: "Mr. Bai has an invitation. Please go back to Beijing."

Xie Wenhan: "..."

If he hadn't been very clear about Xie's mother's every move these years, he would almost suspect that the person in front of him was a trap set by Mrs. Xie.

·

Xue Ci somehow failed to contact Xie Wenhan.

Although they didn't agree to go back to Beijing together... But Xue Ci looked at the empty reply on the phone interface, temporarily changed the itinerary, and went to find Xie Wenhan in the collapsed hotel.

His air ticket had already been refunded, and he was getting into the car when he received Xie Wenhan's reply.

"Okay, safe journey."

Followed by a smiley face.

After seeing it, Xue Ci replied, then turned off the phone and rebooked the flight ticket back to Beijing.

Upon arriving in Beijing, Xue Cixin found a place to rent.

Although he rented the previous rented house by himself, there were too many Xue family members who came and went, so it was inconvenient.

The new residence is still closer to Huada, with a complete security system, but it is only smaller than the previous residence, and the interior decorations are all arranged by Xue Ci himself, which is not much different from the previous one.

After finishing these trivial matters, Xue Ci went to the teacher's house.

Mr. Fang actually has a lot of money, but he still likes to live in a tube building on the Huada campus.Not to mention anything else, it is more convenient to come and go to class.

The teacher's wife had been looking forward to Xue Ci's visit for a long time, she was very happy when she knew that he was coming, she got up early in the morning to buy fresh bone and pig's trotters.The bone and yam are stewed into soup and boiled early.Braised pork trotters are Mrs. Fang's specialty dish. They are oily and bright, with soup hanging in them, and cut into small pieces for easy eating.

Two plates of the freshest young green vegetables are fried, and a pot of brewed wine crabs is cooked.

Crabs are not considered fat at this time, but Mrs. Fang is very skilled. When you open the steamer, you can smell the extraordinary umami, which makes people move their index fingers.Mr. Fang was greedy and held grudges, and made a small report, "It's because of you that you made it so rich. I really don't know what kind of dishes I ate a few days ago, clear water noodles, are you right?"

The more Mr. Fang spoke, the more excited he became, his voice rose, and Mrs. Fang gave him a hard look, "I can't stop you if you eat."

Xue Ci was on the side, holding the soup that his teacher's wife served him, holding back a smile.
