I'm old, so cute

"Little deer!"

Yan Qiao was the first one to rush forward, he didn't care, he lifted the person who was on top of Xing Bailu violently and threw it aside.

Xing Bailu's blue and white school uniform was covered in blood, Yan Qiao almost forgot to breathe, for a moment, mixed with grief and indignation, he glanced at the flip-knife that fell on the ground, just for a moment, he wanted to pick it up and stab someone.

But soon, Yan Qiao withdrew his thoughts, half knelt down to help him up, and hurriedly stretched out his hands to press the pool of blood.

Xing Bailu glanced at the person thrown out by Yan Qiao, and it turned out to be Jiang Huaixia.

The two policemen also ran over, and they were obviously frightened when they saw the blood all over the ground.

They were the ones who brought Xing Bailu out. If something happened to him, they would all be finished.

"Don't be afraid, nothing will happen!" Yan Qiao's voice was trembling, his face was so ugly that he was about to cry, he leaned over to hug her.

Xing Bailu pressed his hand: "Yan Qiao, it's not my blood."

Yan Qiao was stunned.

Xing Bailu was afraid that he would not believe him, so he lifted up his clothes: "Look, it's not my blood." He said, looking at Jiang Huaixia, who was covered in blood.

Two police officers have gone to check on Jiang Huaixia.

Yan Qiao helped Xing Bailu up, his heart was still beating violently, and he remembered that there was so much blood here, Xing Bailu shouldn't have seen it.He reached out his hand to cover Xing Bailu's eyes, but seeing that his hands were also covered with blood, he hurriedly wiped his hands on the clothes behind him, and then reached out to cover Xing Bailu's eyes: "Don't look at Xiaolu, it's all blood."

"It's okay." Xing Bailu pushed his hand away, looked at Jiang Huaixia, but suppressed his voice, "It's probably not his blood."

After all, Jiang Huaixia rushed towards him with great strength just now, and the running speed is absolutely impossible for a person who has lost too much blood.

He looked down again at the bloody switchblade that the earring man had played with, and all the things that he couldn't figure out before were all connected at this moment.

No wonder the kidnappers didn't go to the trading place to get the money, no wonder they saw only the flat-headed man on the other side, no wonder he was so panicked on the last phone call that he didn't count the time, he just asked for money.

Because something happened to them.

The hostage killed someone and escaped.

The two policemen soon found out that the blood was not Jiang Huaixia's, and they were obviously relieved.

The male policeman answered the phone, saying that their people had caught the kidnappers on the opposite side, and asked them how the situation was going.

Here, the policewoman is still comforting Jiang Huaixia.

Jiang Huaixia babbled and said: "I...I want my brother not to give the money, so that they can't get the money, but I didn't have time...the train was too loud, so I had to push him down...I, I didn't mean to Yes, I, I didn't kill him on purpose, if I don't kill him, he will kill me! I... I killed someone... I killed... He wants to kill me, he wants to kill me!"

The male policeman came back, frowned and asked, "What's going on?"

The policewoman's face was ugly: "He's emotionally unstable, and he talks inconsequentially."

Xing Bailu hit a big bump on the back of his head.

Aunt Qiu put an ice pack on him distressedly: "I said I couldn't go, and I would get hurt if I went! How could they let you go as a child in such a thing! What are those people doing? Didn't they say they would protect you?"

Xing Bailu lay on the dining table without saying a word.

Jiang Huaixia was sent to the hospital, and Xing Yuanlin and Zheng Yanling followed.

Aunt Qiu applied Xing Bailu for a while, then asked in a low voice, "Does it still hurt?"

Xing Bailu finally smiled: "Half of my head is frozen."

Aunt Qiu angrily said, "You're still joking!"

Yan Qiao came back after inquiring about the news, and said that Jiang Huaixia escaped only after killing one of the kidnappers. Zheng Yanling was frightened and fainted again.But Xing Yuanlin is still very optimistic, thinking that this is a legitimate defense and should not go to jail.

"It's okay, little deer." Yan Qiao sat down beside Xing Bailu.

Xing Bailu responded, he knew that Yan Qiao must be thinking, even if Jiang Huaixia won't get in because of this matter, sooner or later he will get in because of bribery.

But Xing Bailu felt that this matter must not be that simple.

If he was right, Jiang Huaixia from the previous life should have entered because of this incident. Because of the time sensitivity involved, Xing Yuanlin never mentioned Jiang Huaixia to him.

According to the "Criminal Law", Jiang Huaixia's killing of the kidnappers is an unlimited self-defense, and it is impossible to go to jail.

Therefore, it is absolutely impossible for him to be in self-defense.

Sure enough, not long after, the captured kidnapper told a completely different version of the story.

They originally wanted to catch Xing Bailu and blackmail Xing Yuanlin, but for some reason they had to take Jiang Huaixia away.Unexpectedly, the Xing family directly called the police. The kidnappers were very angry and wanted to chop off Jiang Huaixia's finger and give it to Xing Yuanlin as punishment for calling the police.

In order to dispel their thoughts, Jiang Huaixia gave them an idea, asking them to distract Xing Yuanlin and most of the police, and then call Xing Bailu to send money.Xing Bailu was not in good health, so he could be frightened into sickness by frightening him casually, so it was impossible for him to catch up with them.

In this way, they took the money without the risk of being caught by the police. When necessary, Jiang Huaixia would help them draw the attention of the police.

They listened to Jiang Huaixia's words and untied him.

As a result, when the flat-headed kidnapper came back from the railway crossing and found that his brother had been stabbed to death in the house, Jiang Huaixia had long since disappeared.

The kidnapper felt that it was over, but he was unwilling to lose money and money, which is why he made the phone call that was full of loopholes.

Jiang Huaixia had already been discharged from the hospital and returned home. When the police came to record his statement, he complained that he was wronged.Said that he would say that in order to reduce the kidnapper's wariness of him, he just wanted to take the opportunity to escape, not really want to help the kidnapper and his uncle get money.

"Then I threw Xiaolu down because I didn't want them to succeed and get the money!" Jiang Huaixia was eager to prove, "I don't do that, they want to chop off my fingers."

The police sat by his bed and took notes.

Xing Bailu subconsciously rubbed his broken finger, looking straight at Jiang Huaixia with an innocent face.

If only the kidnappers had cut off one of his fingers.

Jiang Huaixia looked at Xing Yuanlin again: "Uncle, you must believe me! What I said is true! I really didn't want to harm Xiaolu!"

Xing Bailu heard his temples twitch slightly, and he pressed his forehead: "When they didn't say to chop off your fingers, you already wanted them to take me away."

Xing Yuanlin's complexion was a little heavy, he probably remembered that when the kidnappers asked who Xing Bailu was, Jiang Huaixia pointed them out.

"Besides, my cousin saw that I was carrying my schoolbag, so he should have guessed that there is no money in it, right?" Xing Bailu stood up, and said to Xing Yuanlin who was beside him, "Dad, I have a headache, so I'm going back first."

"Father will accompany you back." Xing Yuanlin hurriedly followed him.

Jiang Huaixia hurriedly sat up from the bed: "Uncle, I'm telling the truth! It was the kidnapper who wronged me! If it's what he said, why would I kill people? I don't need to kill people at all!"

One of the policemen stopped him: "Mr. Jiang, please sit down first, we still have a few questions for you."

Xing Bailu and Xing Yuanlin had already walked out of Jiang's house.

"I'm sorry, Dad shouldn't have agreed to let you go!"

Xing Bailu looked back at him in surprise.

In just a few days, Xing Yuanlin looked quite haggard. After all, people's hearts can't be seen through a lifetime, but can be seen through minutes.

In his heart, he definitely didn't want to think about Jiang Huaixia in a bad way, but when he thought about what happened in the past few days, he felt extremely guilty for making his son to pay the ransom in such a fever!

When he came back that day, he saw that Xing Bailu's body was covered in blood. At that moment, his limbs were really cold, his mind went blank, and fear filled his whole body.

"Go back to your room and sleep if you have a headache." Xing Yuanlin looked at the back of Xing Bailu's head with distress, and went into his yard with him.

"Uncle." Seeing them entering, Yan Qiao stood up from the sofa and greeted him, then looked at Xing Bailu, "I heard that you went to Jiang Huaixia's house, what did he say?"

Xing Yuanlin seemed reluctant to speak with a sullen face.

Xing Bailu directly led Yan Qiao upstairs.

As soon as the door was closed, he opened his mouth: "What else can I say? Deny it, struggling to die."

He went straight to the bed and jumped on it, turned over again, and said with a sneer, "He can really think about cooperating with the kidnappers... If this thing can be done, those two people will have to kill him in the end."

Yan Qiao sat down on the edge of the bed, put a soft pillow behind Xing Bailu's head, and then said: "I'm afraid both of them think so. It will be a matter of time before the police come to ask questions again." His voice was lower, " I saw the police come back from the scene that day and they all vomited."

Xing Bailu's eyebrows and eyes are slightly pressed, isn't it?

There was so much blood on Jiang Huaixia's clothes that day, but there was not a single wound on his body.

The hostages were released, and a brutal murder scene... This case itself is very delicate.

In the next few days, Xing Bailu went to and from school every day, and his life was still the same as before.

Yan Qiao's expression was solemn all day long, as if he was preoccupied.

Three days later, Jiang Huaixia was taken away by the police.

Yan Qiao seemed to be finally relieved of his suffocated breath. Such a demon lived no more than a hundred meters away from the deer, and he hadn't slept well in the past few days.

Xing Yuanlin has been very busy during this time, apart from company matters, he has been taking Zheng Yanling to the detention center non-stop.

Xing Bailu didn't intend to ask about this matter, and Xing Yuanlin probably also noticed that since that day, he never mentioned Jiang Huaixia in front of him again.

More than 20 days of make-up classes passed quickly, and the school officially started.

As soon as get out of class was over, Xing Bailu saw Fang Conglin's figure flying past their class, and he leaned out of the window. Zhang Qingyou walked out of the classroom and was blocked by Fang Conglin.

Xing Bailu couldn't help laughing, guessing that Zhang Qingyou had put Fang Conglin on the blacklist for a summer vacation.

Fang Conglin was carrying a big bag of things in his hand, and he didn't know what he bought for Zhang Qingyou. Xing Bailu was a little curious, so he walked over.

He heard Fang Conglin say: "Senior, how long has it been? Haven't you calmed down yet? Look, didn't I come here on purpose to apologize to Xing Bailu?"

Xing Bailu's footsteps stopped.

"Hey, say Cao Cao Cao Cao will be there!" Fang Conglin turned his head and saw Xing Bailu, and stuffed a large bag of things into his arms, "I brought it specially for you!"

"Give it to me?!" Xing Bailu thought it was something, but lowered his head to find that it was the traditional Chinese medicine that Dr. Tang had prepared for him.

I drank the amount of the previous half month, and this is the remaining half month.

Fang Conglin said again: "Senior, you see that Xing Bailu has forgiven me, are you still angry?"

Zhang Qingyou said: "Did he say he forgives you?"

"Is there still a need to say it?" Fang Conglin said, "I gave him things, and he accepted them all. Doesn't that mean he forgives me?"

Xing Bailu: "..." This is my medicine, I didn't forgive you for taking it, did I?

Zhang Qingyou didn't want to talk to him: "Get out of the way, I'm going to the bathroom."

Fang Conglin followed closely: "Let's go together, senior."

Xing Bailu looked at his back, and suddenly remembered something: "Hey, why is he a senior, but you call me by my full name?!"

"Cong Lin?" Yan Qiao walked out.

Xing Bailu smiled: "That's him."

Yan Qiao saw a large bag of traditional Chinese medicine in Xing Bailu's hand again, and helped him pick it up, "I think it's necessary for you to drink it for a month. You can see that you've been running fast during this time, and you've eaten a lot."

Xing Bailu smiled: "Can it be less? Every day I do physical labor and mental labor."

Yan Qiao laughed.

Xing Bailu said: "You make up lessons like a devil every day, don't you need to make up?"

Yan Qiao asked seriously: "Do you want me to drink it? If you want me to drink Chinese medicine with you, I'll ask Dr. Tang to send me some notes."

Xing Bailu widened his eyes slightly: "Are you stupid, how can you drink medicine with me! I'm just joking."

Yan Qiao was still smiling.

When Zhang Qingyou came back, seeing the two of them standing at the door, she couldn't help but said, "You might as well find a place to sit, why are you blocking the door."

Xing Bailu smiled and asked, "Why are you alone?"

Zhang Qingyou said helplessly: "It's true that going to the toilet can't make me safe, so I have to release him from the blacklist to seek cleanliness."

Xing Bailu said: "So he went back obediently?"

Zhang Qingyou pursed her lips: "Because I said that if he doesn't go back, I will block him again."

Xing Bailu laughed out loud.

It was rare for Yan Qiao to say a word: "You are the one he has chased for the longest."

Xing Bailu turned his head and asked, "Is that serious?"

Yan Qiao sneered: "It's because Zhang Qingyou persisted the longest and never agreed to him."

Xing Bailu: "Hahaha——"

Zhang Qingyou said blankly: "Then I can make him break the Guinness Book of Records."

Xing Bailu: "Hahaha——"

Later, the words reached Fang Conglin's ears somehow.

When he aggressively sent Yan Qiao a message, they were on the bus going home.

Seeing that it was Fang Conglin's message, Yan Qiao didn't shy away from Xing Bailu at all, and even motioned him to read it.

Fang Conglin: "Old Yan, you really fucking want to kill brother"

Yan Qiao: "Can't tell the truth?"

Fang Conglin: "Mutual deletion"

Xing Bailu's eyes widened, seeing Yan Qiao put away the phone straight away, he couldn't help but asked, "Will he really delete you?"

Yan Qiao said indifferently: "Fake, he often does this."

Xing Bailu was a little worried: "Really?"

"real."

Yan Qiao saw that Xing Bailu was really worried, so he took out his mobile phone and said, "Look at it."

He opened Fang Conglin's dialog box, and sent a smiling emoji.

Sent successfully.

"Look, huh?"

Just as Xing Bailu breathed a sigh of relief, Fang Conglin sent again: "Fuck, you don't need to remind me, I'll delete it now!"

Attached a series of angry expressions.

Xing Bailu's heart that had just let go became tangled again.

Yan Qiao laughed: "It's really all right, if you don't believe me, take a look."

He sent another smiley emoji.

Sent successfully.

Fang Conglin: "Old Yan, don't fucking bully me too much!"

Xing Bailu: "..."

Fang Conglin sent it to Xing Bailu instead: "Can you take care of your family!"

Xing Bailu suppressed a smile: "What do you do?"

Fang Conglin: "Let him delete me."

Xing Bailu: "Why don't you delete it?"

Fang Conglin: "Give him some face at the end"

Xing Bailu chuckled, it seemed that what Yan Qiao said was true, so he didn't care about him.

Fang Conglin sent Zhang Qingyou: "What are Lao Yan and Xing Bailu doing?"

Zhang Qingyou looked up at the two people who were talking, bowed her head and typed: "If you want to send me anything, just say it, there is no need to talk about it."

Fang Conglin: "..."

When Xing Bailu returned home, it was rare to see Xing Yuanlin at home so early.

When I entered the door, I saw Aunt Qiu packing a food box and going out, Xing Bailu hurriedly asked, "Where are you going?"

Aunt Qiu said: "Oh, your aunt is in a bad mood these days. My husband asked her to come to eat at home, but she refused, saying that she begged you to save others that day, and felt very sorry for you. I just wanted to let her Stop firing, and send her some food. The husband is over there too, do you want to go and have a look together?"

Xing Bailu followed Aunt Qiu.

Zheng Yanling sat in the bedroom with her head down, and Xing Yuanlin sat in front of her and talked to her.

Aunt Qiu went in and said that the food was already in the kitchen, and asked Zheng Yanling to heat it up when she wanted to eat.

Xing Bailu stood at the door and didn't go in, remembering the first time he went to No. 65 Qingjiang Road to see her, it was a far cry from now.

She lost a lot of weight and her hair was messy. When I saw her at that time, although she was not the kind of person who was particularly good at dressing up, she also tidied herself up to make people look comfortable.

Xing Bailu stood for a while, then turned and went downstairs.

He is not a sensational person, and he doesn't know how to comfort others, not to mention that Zheng Yanling is pitiful, but when he thinks of Jiang Huaixia's hatefulness, he is afraid that he will not be able to resist cursing people on the spot.

"Xing Bailu."

When Xing Bailu walked into the yard, he heard someone calling him.

Surprisingly, it was Lu Mingjia whom I hadn't seen for a long time.

Lu Mingjia carried the fruit and explained, "My mother asked me to come and see Aunt Zheng."

Xing Bailu nodded, and walked away from him.

"Xing Bailu." Lu Mingjia stopped him again, "Why did you say those things?"

what?

Xing Bailu was stunned.

Lu Mingjia blocked his way: "Those two kidnappers were going to kidnap you, and your cousin was kidnapped for you. Why did you say that when the kidnapper asked who Xing Bailu was, he pointed at you?"

Xing Bailu thought he was going to say something: "Get out of the way."

Lu Mingjia refused, and continued: "For self-protection, he deliberately said that there is something wrong with cooperating with the kidnappers? You were already out of danger at that time, even if you were asked to send the ransom, there must be people around you, why don't you believe what he said? "

Xing Bailu said: "Are you a fool?"

"What?" Lu Mingjia probably didn't expect him to say that, and was suddenly stunned.

Xing Bailu said speechlessly: "Does it matter if I believe it or not? The police must believe it. So, are you here to discuss with me that the police are all idiots? Or, you can go to the police station and repeat what you just said, and ask them why they don't believe him." ?”

Lu Mingjia's complexion was very ugly.

Xing Bailu pushed him away and walked to the gate of the courtyard, then turned around suddenly: "Lu Mingjia."

Lu Mingjia hurriedly turned around.

Xing Bailu stared at him: "Do you know that Jiang Huaixia asked Xu Jianghua to beat me?"

"what?"

"Forget it." Xing Bailu smiled, it doesn't make any difference whether Lu Mingjia knows or not.

A month later, Jiang Huaixia's case of first instance opened

Because it was not the weekend, as a student party, there was no way to go to the scene, so Yan Qiao asked Lawyer Chang to find someone to go to the court hearing.

In the afternoon, Lawyer Chang called Yan Qiao himself.

Jiang Huaixia and the kidnappers disagreed, and there was no other evidence to prove that Jiang Huaixia really wanted to cooperate with the kidnappers, so the court favored the fact that Jiang Huaixia was pretending to cooperate.

However, because the kidnappers believed that Jiang Huaixia really wanted to cooperate, they untied him and lifted his imprisonment. Jiang Huaixia's situation was no longer in danger from the beginning of "cooperating" with the kidnappers. Unlimited justifiable defense does not apply to this case.

In the first instance, Jiang Huaixia was sentenced to six years and three months in prison for excessive self-defense.

Jiang Huaixia refused to accept it and asked for an appeal.

"Appeal? How could he have the face to appeal!" Zhang Qingyou was so angry that he crushed the soda can in his hand, and the drink splashed out.

Fang Conglin hurriedly wiped him with a tissue: "Don't move around, senior, you've splashed all over your clothes!"

Zhang Qingyou was very angry, she grabbed the tissue in Fang Conglin's hand and wiped it vigorously, scolding at the same time.

Yan Qiao pursed his lips tightly and murmured, "Six years, only six years..."

"Yan Qiao." Xing Bailu took his hand, feeling that he was a little tense, he pulled him to sit down, and whispered, "In fact, it exceeded my expectations. I checked a lot of information, after all, he was kidnapped It's the truth, I originally thought that the sentence would be three years at most. Six years is already a relief, after all..."

He suppressed his voice: "After all, if he accepts bribes, the amount of money at his level will not be very high, and it will only be three years at most."

Yan Qiao looked sideways at Xing Bailu who was smiling at him, and couldn't help sighing.

This fool is so happy, for Jiang Huaixia's kind of bastard, six years is not enough!

He held Xing Bailu's hand instead, rubbing his little finger unconsciously with his fingertips, thinking that Jiang Huaixia had almost succeeded in this life, Yan Qiao wished he could stab Jiang Huaixia twice with a knife himself!

He later called Lawyer Chang privately.

Lawyer Chang told him clearly that there was nothing wrong with the result of the first trial, even if he appealed, the difference would not be too big.

But he said: "I didn't participate in this case, and I don't know many details, but normally, the sentence should not be so severe."

Yan Qiao frowned: "What do you mean?"

Lawyer Chang said: "In criminal cases, many details will not be disclosed. This is something everyone knows well. The problem should be at the scene."

No one knows what kind of scene it was, and no one knows what happened at the time.

But Lawyer Chang is undoubtedly telling Yan Qiao that Jiang Huaixia is cold-blooded and cruel.

Yan Qiao felt that six years was too short.

As a result of the second instance, the appeal was rejected and the original judgment was upheld.

Originally, Xing Bailu just wanted to drive Jiang Huaixia out of Yuanshan Real Estate, but he was quite able to accept this unexpected ending.

Six years later, he had long since graduated from college and was no longer a kid.

But for some reason, Yan Qiao was still very unhappy.

Of course, there are people who are more unhappy than Yan Qiao.

During this period, Xing Bailu also visited Zheng Yanling several times. Although he didn't say anything, that person was getting thinner and thinner day by day.

On the third day after Jiang Huaixia was escorted to the Second Provincial Prison, Xing Yuanlin proposed at dinner that he wanted to bring Zheng Yanling to live with him.

"Of course, if you really disagree, Dad will respect you." Xing Yuanlin added.

Xing Bailu bowed his head and ate a few mouthfuls of food, but did not speak.

Aunt Qiu hurriedly filled a bowl of soup for Xing Bailu: "The spinach these days is very fresh. I heard people say that spinach contains a lot of vitamins, and it is said to be very nutritious. I deliberately put more in the soup. You should eat more. Recently Your studies are heavy, I think you go to bed later than usual at night."

Xing Yuanlin also said: "That's right, listen to your Aunt Qiu, eat more."

He didn't mention Zheng Yanling's matter again.

After dinner, Xing Bailu went to Yan Qiao's house and asked a few questions.

When he came back, Xing Yuanlin happened to come out of the study, saw him and asked naturally: "Come back from Yanqiao?"

"Hmm." Xing Bailu watched him go to the kitchen to pour water, and was about to enter the study, so he couldn't help calling him, "Dad, why don't you ask me again?"

Xing Yuanlin was stunned: "What?"

"You want to take over your aunt."

Only then did Xing Yuanlin come back to his senses, sighed and said, "Your aunt actually won't let me tell."

Xing Bailu said: "Take it here, it's strange that she lives alone in the villa, so don't waste that money."

"Xiaolu, are you serious?" Xing Yuanlin thought he had heard it wrong, and was a little overjoyed, "Then, the father will let her move here tomorrow?"

"Ah."

When Xing Bailu came back from school the next day, Aunt Qiu and Xing Yuanlin moved Zheng Yanling's room here.

Aunt Qiu also wanted to let Zheng Yanling live in her south-facing room, but Zheng Yanling refused, saying that if Aunt Qiu insisted on this, she would not move.

Aunt Qiu just gave up.

There are still many coffee machines and other things in the villa on the west side. Because of Jiang Huaixia's incident, the store on Hefang Street has been empty and has not been renovated.

These were all moved and placed in the Xing family's warehouse.

Xing Yuanlin did not return the lease on the storefront on Hefang Street, and planned to let Zheng Yanling rest for a while before working, so that she could distract her attention if she had something to do.

When Xing Bailu left, Zheng Yanling was tidying up Jiang Huaixia's room.

Zheng Yanling was very surprised to see him: "Xiaolu, why are you here? Don't, don't come in. It's a mess and I haven't cleaned it up yet."

There are also many things on the floor of Jiang Huaixia's room, which should be unwanted.

The things Zheng Yanling planned to take away were all placed on the bed. Xing Bailu took a look and saw that there were quite a few girls' things.

Zheng Yanling explained: "Oh, it should be his girlfriend's stuff. I don't know when he got his girlfriend. I don't know. Now these things, I don't know who to give them to."

Xing Bailu stood at the door and said, "Ask Lu Mingjia, he might know."

Zheng Yanling seemed to be awakened by the words, and nodded repeatedly: "Yes, you can ask Xiaojia how I forgot him. He and Xiaoxia are close, and he probably knows."

Both Lu Mingjia and Jiang Huaixia like to make girlfriends secretly, don't you know?

"Sister, do you still need help?" Xing Yuanlin came up from downstairs, "Xiaolu, when did you come?"

Xing Bailu said: "Just now."

"Don't stand here." Xing Yuanlin pulled him out, "I haven't cleaned it for a long time, it's full of dust, you go home, we'll clean it up right away."

Zheng Yanling hurriedly said: "Xiao Lu, don't stand here eating ashes, you go back first."

Xing Yuanlin went straight in and asked Zheng Yanling what else she needed to take away, and then the siblings started packing together.

Xing Bailu stood at the door for a while, seeing how they were discussing and discussing, for some reason, he suddenly felt a little envious.I remember when I was a child, my mother asked him if it would be good to have a younger brother or younger sister, and said that when we grow up, the two of us can discuss things together and support each other.

But when he was still too young, Xing Bailu just watched Zhang Qingyou and his brothers and sisters grab toys, and now he understands what his mother said about supporting each other.

He took a deep breath, turned and went downstairs.

Forget it, don't think about it in this life, how can there be so many brothers and sisters, if you meet someone like Jiang Huaixia, it's good to save your life.

When Xing Bailu returned home, Aunt Qiu was already cooking in the kitchen, and when she saw him come back, she told him to wash his hands.

Xing Bailu smiled: "I didn't help either, it's clean."

Aunt Qiu was angry: "Don't you wash your hands before eating?"

Xing Bailu had no choice but to go in and wash his hands.

Aunt Qiu asked again: "Is the place ready soon?"

"Well, it's almost time." Xing Bailu stole a piece of radish with gravy and stuffed it into his mouth, "Aunt Qiu, it's so delicious."

Aunt Qiu didn't hold him back: "You child."

Not long after, Xing Yuanlin and the others came back and said that they had sealed and packed all Jiang Huaixia's things and stored them in the warehouse.

It could be seen that Zheng Yanling didn't know how to face Xing Bailu, and was very reserved at the dinner table.Aunt Qiu and Xing Yuanlin kept picking up vegetables for her, and Aunt Qiu kept picking up various topics, and even asked Zheng Yanling to go grocery shopping together tomorrow.

After the meal, the atmosphere calmed down a little.

After the meal, the three of them chatted downstairs, and Xing Bailu went directly to the upstairs study to review.

Later, when Xing Bailu came out of the study, he saw the door of Zheng Yanling's room next door opened.

Zheng Yanling said in a low voice: "It's already ordered, do you want my aunt to make you some supper?"

Xing Bailu hurriedly said: "No, Aunt Qiu prepared supper for me every day in the kitchen. I can eat it when I go down and heat it up. You sleep in yours."

Xing Bailu went downstairs into the kitchen and heard Zheng Yanling following him.

Zheng Yanling was a little embarrassed, and said softly, "I'll just come and see what you usually like to eat, and I can help Aunt Qiu prepare it for you in the future."

Xing Bailu smiled and said: "I don't pick, I will eat anything."

Today is a plate of steamed dumplings, Aunt Qiu steamed them for him before going upstairs, now Xing Bailu just needs to heat them up in the microwave.

Zheng Yanling asked again: "What stuffing did you eat?"

"You have to eat it to know." Xing Bailu took out the dumplings and said, "But there is a high probability that they are fresh meat from bamboo shoots. Winter bamboo shoots are newly available recently."

He sat down and took a bite: "Well, I knew it."

Zheng Yanling laughed along.

Xing Bailu asked: "Would you like some?"

"I don't want to eat." Zheng Yanling shook her head.

Xing Bailu remembered Yan Qiao's words, and said, "Do you want to keep fit?"

Zheng Yanling was stunned for a moment, then smiled again, and asked, "Would you like some vinegar?"

"I don't like dipping in vinegar. I can just eat the original flavor. Aunt Qiu's stuffing is very delicious."

"Then you eat more." Zheng Yanling helped him pour a glass of warm water for him, "Don't choke."

"Yeah." When Xing Bailu was drinking water, he secretly glanced at Zheng Yanling. Did she look at Jiang Huaixia like this when he was eating?

It's a pity that people like Jiang Huaixia don't deserve a mother.

Zheng Yanling hesitated for a long time, and finally said: "Xiao Lu, don't hate your cousin, he...he will change." She choked up, "He can change..."

This was the first time Jiang Huaixia mentioned that matter in front of Xing Bailu after Jiang Huaixia was taken away.

Xing Bailu didn't speak, because he didn't know how to tell Zheng Yanling that Jiang Huaixia couldn't change.

When Xing Bailu went downstairs for a morning jog the next day, he heard voices in the kitchen. He was still thinking about why Aunt Qiu saw Zheng Yanling coming out of the kitchen wearing an apron so early today.

She was stunned for a moment: "Why is Xiaolu so early?"

Xing Bailu was a little surprised: "Oh, I'm going to exercise."

Zheng Yanling was a little worried: "Are you alone?"

Just as he was talking, the doorbell rang outside.

Xing Bailu opened the door, then turned around and said, "With my friend."

Zheng Yanling chased her out: "Be careful and pay attention to your body."

"Ah."

After leaving Xing's courtyard, Yan Qiao reached out and pulled Xing Bailu over: "Why is she at your house?"

Xing Bailu said: "She will live with us from now on."

Yan Qiao couldn't believe it: "You agreed?"

"Yeah." Xing Bailu nodded, "She's pretty pitiful too."

Yan Qiao was very angry: "She is pitiful, you just... she is Jiang Huaixia's mother! Jiang Huaixia treats you like this, how can you just let it go!"

"Didn't Jiang Huaixia go in?"

Yan Qiao was still angry, so that he ran so fast that Xing Bailu almost couldn't catch up with him.

"Don't be angry, it's nothing." Panting, Xing Bailu chased after him desperately.

Yan Qiao looked back and saw that he was falling further and further away, still running desperately, so he slowed down softly.

"Don't...don't be angry." Xing Bailu was out of breath, "She's also very... very uncomfortable. She stayed...to make me a supper last night, and this morning... got up early to make breakfast... "

Yan Qiao stopped, and reached out to support Xing Bailu who was out of breath: "So your heart softened? Why are you so easy to coax!"

"I'm not... not easy to coax."

"You're not easy to coax?"

Xing Bailu smiled: "People who treat me badly, I will remember them all my life... I remember, I especially hold grudges!"

Yan Qiao couldn't help laughing.

Xing Bailu rubbed over: "Look, it's okay if you smile...it's okay."

"Stop talking." Yan Qiao led him away, "Look, it's going to make you gasp."

"You run too...too fast! I can't even catch up!"

"I won't run away." Yan Qiao looked at him sideways, "I'll wait for you from now on."

Xing Bailu smiled, and tightened Yan Qiao's hand.

Because of Zheng Yanling's moving into the Xing family, although Yan Qiao didn't say anything later, Xing Bailu could tell that he was still unhappy for several days.

But Xing Bailu was very happy, because Yan Qiao's birthday was one week away.

This is his 18th coming-of-age ceremony.

It is said that Mr. Yan was going to give him a big deal in Ninghai, and he was going to invite most of the people in Ninghai, but Yan Qiao refused because he wanted to prepare for the college entrance examination.

Old Master Yan called Tong Qian and complained aggrievedly for a long time, and finally forced Yan Qiao to agree to wait for his 20th birthday to hold a big event in Ninghai before Old Master Yan gave up.

Getting off the bus that day, Zhang Qingyou chased Yan Qiao and asked, "Yan Qiao, tell me, what do you want for your birthday?"

Yan Qiao looked at Xing Bailu speechlessly: "He has always been like this?"

Xing Bailu shrugged: "Yes."

Yan Qiao couldn't help but said: "How can anyone chase after others to ask what birthday gift they want? Zhang Qingyou, are you being too perfunctory?"

Zhang Qingyou poked her waist: "Why am I being perfunctory? I obviously want to give you this, your favorite gift!"

Yan Qiao said it righteously: "You don't want to think about what gift to give on your friend's birthday, and you have to ask the birthday person to think for themselves. Don't you think you are being perfunctory?"

Xing Bailu's eyes widened slightly: "I'm going, it makes sense! Big Yuzu, you really have you. You have been perfunctory to me for more than ten years, and I still think you are my best friend!"

Zhang Qingyou immediately said: "I am your best friend! Who is perfunctory to you? Don't listen to Yan Qiao's nonsense! My sincere heart has been misinterpreted to this point by you! I am very sad!"

Yan Qiao smiled and said, "Really, you can give me whatever I choose?"

"Of course it's true!" Zhang Qingyou blurted out, and immediately added, "Of course, I can't be made to do something that hurts nature, and I can't...it can't be too expensive, beyond my tolerance."

Yan Qiao said: "It won't hurt the world, and you don't need to spend money."

Zhang Qingyou hurriedly chased after her: "Then tell me quickly, what do you want?"

Yan Qiao raised his eyebrows: "Give me a notice from Ning University."

Zhang Qingyou: "..."

Xing Bailu: "Hahaha——"

Yan Qiao said again: "If you don't, then you want to go."

Zhang Qingyou: "..."

He turned to Xing Bailu again: "Little Lu, what are you giving?"

Yan Qiao hurriedly pulled Xing Bailu to the other side of him: "Zhang Qingyou, don't go too far, you want to be lazy, and you want to give me a gift from spoiler Xiaolu?" He turned his face, "Don't tell him!"

Xing Bailu couldn't help laughing, so of course he didn't say anything,
