"Senior, why did they all leave all of a sudden?" Shi Le looked at the police swarming outside and asked Qi Lin suspiciously.

Qi Lin didn't know what was going on.Not long ago, it looked peaceful in the police station, but now they all dressed up and ran out.

Whatever the reason, it couldn't be because he was off work.

"Isn't it because you want to grab a meal?" Shi Le looked at the calendar, "It seems that the eel rice in the East District is [-]% off today."

"You think everyone is you?" Qi Lin looked back through the rearview mirror.The warning lights on the police car were all on, and something must have happened suddenly.

But what can happen at this point in time?Qi Lin couldn't figure it out.

Could it be that Atalanta started committing crimes again?

He stopped a policeman with a familiar face for questioning.But the policeman kept silent, told Qi Lin not to worry, and then ran away.

"Inexplicable." Qi Lin muttered, "Shi Le, fasten your seat belt."

"Are we going to follow and watch!" Shi Le's eyes lit up excitedly.

Qi Lin rolled his eyes.

"Do you think you are some kind of Magical Flying Tigers? It looks like a dangerous thing, and we don't have weapons, so it's good if we don't make trouble." Qi Lin yawned, "Now go home and pack your things. Planning to go to Jiangcheng."

"What are you doing in Jiangcheng?"

"Look for Xiao Yuxuan's old house, and at the same time confirm whether Atalanta is Xiao Yuxuan. It would be bad if they look alike again. After all, Zhuang Xinger and her are very similar, and it is not impossible to have another similarity. .”

Shile nodded.

This time, he deliberately went home and packed two pieces of his own pajamas, and brought two extra pieces of his own clothes, so as not to be dressed up again by Qi Lin.

"To be honest, I haven't been back to Jiangcheng since I graduated from university." Shi Le lay on the window of the light rail and looked out curiously.

Qi Lin also leaned comfortably on the seat, looking at the scenery outside the window and Shi Le's face reflected in the window.

"You are from Qingcheng, right?" Qi Lin asked Shi Le.

"Yes, I grew up in Qingcheng. I used to live by the river, and I moved to Chunjing in high school."

"Have you moved to this house since high school?" Qi Lin recalled Shi Le's one room and one living room, "Then your parents?"

"They do business in France and usually don't come back. Occasionally, when they come back during the Chinese New Year, they will go to their uncle's house. His house has enough rooms."

"I heard that Director Xing's home is a villa."

"My aunt is the principal of a private elementary school. She is relatively rich." Shi Le turned to look at Qi Lin, "How about you, senior?"

Qi Lin was stunned.

"I have no money, and I can't afford a villa."

Shi Le let out a chuckle, "I'm not asking you this. I'm asking about senior's parents? I heard that senior is from Jiangcheng."

"Well, I have been in Jiangcheng from birth to university. My mother succeeded my father and is managing a medical device company."

"Chairman? It's amazing." Shi Le said with emotion, "But why is mother taking father's position, where is father?"

Qi Lin opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but the conductor who just happened to be carrying the tray interrupted him.

"Do you need coffee, milk tea?" the conductor bent down and asked.

Qi Lin asked her for a cup of coffee, American style without sugar.Take a sip, and the bitter taste spreads on the tip of your tongue.

"My father died a long time ago," he replied.

"Ah, senior, I'm sorry." Shi Le covered his mouth with his hands, but Qi Lin could still imagine his shocked expression.

"It's okay, you didn't do it on purpose." Qi Lin smiled, "It's been so many years, I've already accepted this matter, so it's good to let you know. After all, this time I'm going to Jiangcheng to stay at our house."

"Senior thinks it's fine if it doesn't matter... Wait, live at your house?" Shi Le's heart that had just been let go raised again, "Why? Is there any special event to meet the parents? Or is it close to the place to go?"

He guessed a lot of reasons wildly, but Qi Lin gave the most down-to-earth one.

"Because I have no money."

"Ah—so that's how it is," Shi Le thought, but it might be inconvenient for so many people to squeeze into a small house.

It wasn't until standing in front of Qi Lin's house that Shi Le realized that he had made a big mistake.

There is a yard in front of the house, a swimming pool in the back, a billiard room and KTV downstairs, and an entire platform on the side as a terrace.

It looks like a villa, but it is actually a resort and some people believe it.

"That's right, how can it be a small house if they are all the chairman?" Shi Le smiled.

"Huh?" Qi Lin heard Shi Le muttering, "What's wrong?"

"No, it's nothing." Shi Le picked up his suitcase, and before he could take two steps, it was snatched away by two servants who looked like servants and carried him upstairs.

"My mother doesn't need to do it by himself." Qi Lin patted Shi Le's shoulder, and handed his package to the butler beside him very skillfully.

Shi Le was dumbfounded.

"No, senior, your family is so rich, why do you still drive the old Santana? It doesn't look like a rich man at all."

"Who says I'm rich?" Qi Lin said innocently, "I'm poor."

"Stop pretending, your house is just short of engraving 'House of the Second Generation' on the door."

"That's because my mother is rich, not me." Qi Lin raised his eyebrows, pointing to the calligraphy works and Shi Le hanging above the living room.

I saw four large characters written in the picture frame.

Self-reliance.

"This is my mother's idea. I bought that car with a few months' salary." Qi Lin said casually, as if it was nothing unusual.

He took Shile to his room.This room still retains the style of Qi Lin when he was in school, with a large No. 26 jersey hanging on the wall and many posters of basketball stars on the desk.

"The layout here really hasn't changed at all." Qi Lin looked around his room, and Shi Le followed him.

"Senior, what is this?" Shi Le picked up a small crystal ball and asked him.

"You can't touch that." Qi Lin smiled slightly, took the crystal ball and wiped it clean with a tissue, then put it back into the box, "This is the only thing my father left me."

Shi Le, who made two mistakes in just half a day, lowered his head.

"I'm sorry." He stood where he was, neither sat nor walked, just stood there obediently.

Seeing Shi Le's pitiful appearance, Qi Lin's heart tightened, thinking that his tone of voice had frightened him, so he quickly hugged Shi Le and sat down.

"I can show you anything else you want, okay?" He asked tentatively when he kissed Le's red eyes.

"No need, senior. I know I was wrong." Shi Le was still wronged, but it wasn't wronged that Qi Lin said about himself, but wronged that he made mistakes again and again.

With his tears coming out, Qi Lin completely panicked.

"Don't cry, don't cry." He took a tissue to wipe away the tears from the corners of Shi Le's eyes, "Let's go for a walk, shall we?"

Shi Le held back her tears and left the room with Qi Lin.

Sitting on the pavilion in the backyard, Qi Lin tried to explain all this to him.

He thought, since Shi Le is his lover, he has the right to know the situation in his family.

"Actually, my father was really a good father during his lifetime. After he inherited his grandfather's property, he determined to make better medical equipment to give back to the society. He did it. He improved a lot of equipment and also Many people have been cured. I still remember that the night before his accident, he was still talking to his mother about the new invention. At that time, he wanted to develop a device to treat mental illness, but unfortunately he had just solved the theoretical part, and it was too late Practice is crushed to death by heavy objects."

"Heavy things...how come?"

"Actually, I was still young that year, so I can't remember the specifics. I just remember that it was a weekday, and I went to his company to find him. I had made an appointment to have a barbecue at night, but it turned out—his—"

This memory is always vague, and it gives me a headache when I think about it.Qi Lin took a deep breath, and continued to talk to Shi Le after clearing it up.

"As a result, his partner suddenly came to the door and said that he wanted my father to help his son—yes, it was the son, I can't remember the face, but it should be a boy. He asked my father to help the boy, and the father had no choice but to Canceled the dinner with me. Then, a steel plate suddenly fell from the sky and hit him."

Qi Lin paused, trying his best to search for details in his mind.

"In the ward of the hospital, the last thing he said to me was to go to his room and find a wooden box with things left for me. But when I opened it, there was only the crystal ball."

"There must be something special about that crystal ball."

"It would be great if it was meaningful." Qi Lin shook his head, "I've watched it for so many years, but I still haven't seen what the crystal ball is trying to express. I think maybe it's just that my father likes it better, and he wants to keep it for me. Think about it too.”

That’s right, it’s not bad as a thought.For so many years, the crystal ball has been by Qi Lin's side, and he can think of his father whenever he sees the crystal ball.

"But, senior, don't you think that steel plate is a bit too coincidental?" Shi Le continued to ask, "It happened to be the day before the practice, right under that steel plate."

"It's not that I didn't think about it, but there is no beneficiary in this matter, and that technology is now sealed by my mother. And the second floor was under construction at the time, and it was normal to have steel plates."

"But..." Shi Le still had doubts, "Your father is only the chairman of the company, what's the urgent need to bring your child to him?"

"I don't know that, and I don't have any impression of that person. I also suspected him at the beginning, but this matter was not good for him, and he died not long after. I only remember his surname Xia, other I have neither heard nor seen anyone mention it.”

Shi Le was silent.

Qi Lin patted him on the back.

"I know, you just want me to feel better. I have really let go of such a long time ago, and you don't have to think too much. Let's pack up and go out, shall we?"

Shile nodded.
