Mr. Chen had five sons in total, three sons and two daughters. Except for Chen Shiqian, the first four were born to the late old lady.Among all the children, apart from the disappointing second child, the old man loves this little daughter the most.

When Chen Yi was young, she was also a well-known figure in Shanghai. At that time, the people who pursued her broke the threshold of the Chen family, but they failed to win Miss Chen Si's favor. She turned around and married Hong Kong. If there were not some accidents, now She can also be regarded as a harmonious husband and wife, and her children and grandchildren are filial.

Ever since their family immigrated to Canada, Chen Yi hadn't been back to the Chen family for more than ten years, and this time she came back specially for the old man's [-]th birthday.

In the living room, Chen Yi talked and laughed with the old man.She is over forty years old, but her skin is well maintained, and even the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes are not visible.

"Let me tell you, no matter how good it is abroad, it can't compare to our Chinese Fengshui society. Look, the third sister has raised Ayin so well. Even this uncle is very handsome."

Jiang Tianyi was forced to come to Chen's house by Fu Yin tonight.

The little girl's excuse was that his newly appointed niece and son-in-law would never lose a piece of meat when he met his aunt who had not met yet.

However, sitting here for more than half an hour, he can be considered to have seen what it means to be eloquent and witty, and this ability of boasting is probably only comparable to that of Sangjiu.

But this person in front of him is not just a master who praises everyone.

Chen Yi looked around, "Hey, the eldest brother and the third sister are here, why don't you see the second brother?" After speaking, she pretended to be angry, "My younger sister came from a long way, he shouldn't be hiding as an older brother." Bar?"

As soon as these words were asked, no one in the four seats made a sound, and there was a terrifying embarrassment in the air.

No one here knows that Chen Liang was sent to prison by Chen Shiqian because of embezzlement of public funds and attempting to embezzle the company's equity when the old man was seriously ill.This incident caused a great uproar in Shencheng at the beginning. Even if this aunt of the Chen family who just arrived is married far away, she really doesn't know anything about her family affairs?Moreover, Chen Shiqian was not mentioned at all in the conversation just now. Was it intentional or unintentional?

"Okay," the old man said in a calm voice, "Chen Yi, you are tired after sitting on the plane for more than ten hours, let's eat first."

The old man had already spoken, so naturally she, a junior, had no reason to ask any more questions. She smiled and said a few words to defuse the awkward atmosphere, and then helped the old man to the restaurant.

The young couple, who were a few steps behind, whispered behind each other.

Jiang Tianyi pulled Fu Yin past her and whispered in her ear, "Your aunt is really amazing."

There is quite a bit of sincere admiration in the words.

Fu Yin gave him a reproachful look and scolded him for being unscrupulous.

When everyone was seated, Chen Shiqian came in calmly, and saw Chen Yi symbolically called "Fourth Sister", but Chen Yi only gave a perfunctory "Mmm" when he heard it, Didn't even look up.

A weird atmosphere lingered among the crowd, but it was hard for Jiang Tianyi, a talkative person, to eat a meal without taste.

The old man has been in poor spirits since his illness. After dinner, Fu Yin's mother helped him back to his room to rest. Jiang Tianyi was afraid that he would accidentally offend his aunt, so he dragged Fu Yin out of the Shura field early.

Only Chen Yi and Chen Shiqian were left in the living room, and Chen Shi, the boss of the Chen family, was holding a newspaper.

Chen Yi on the other side of the sofa took a sip from the teacup, her movements were graceful and calm, she glanced at Chen Shiqian who was silent across the way, and sneered: "I only know about the second brother. The younger brother is a good trick, and he will kill the second brother as soon as he returns home." Brother was caught off guard, from now on we brothers and sisters must not behave properly in the company, or you will point the blade at us someday. What do you think, big brother?"

Chen Shi sat aside and neither spoke nor expressed his opinion, just pretending to be stupid.

Then look at Chen Shiqian reclining on the sofa with his eyes closed, not taking it seriously at all.

It was like punching cotton with a fist, and there was no response.

Seeing this, Chen Yi felt her heart was blocked and her whole body was blocked, so she simply got up and left.

There are a few canna trees that are in season in the Chen family’s courtyard, and Jiang Tianyi finally sneaked out to smoke a cigarette, and he didn’t forget to report someone’s situation to Sang Jiu, a non-staff member of the Chen family, and by the way, complain about tonight’s meal Terrible dinner.

"Let me tell you, Fu Yin's aunt is on par with you..."

When it was about to rise, a sharp voice cut a hole in the silent darkness.

"Chen Shiqian, don't think that just because you have the surname Chen, you really consider yourself a member of the Chen family!"

Without the presence of outsiders, all the magnanimity and composure just now collapsed in an instant. At this moment, the disgust in Chen Yi's eyes could not be hidden, "You are as shameless as your mother! You are a tutor in front of the public, but you are crawling behind your back!" Going to the student's father's bed, isn't it cheap!"

"Please watch your words!"

Chen Shiqian refuted sharply.

"Pay attention to your words?" She sneered, with an almost crazy expression on her face, "My son was killed by both of you mother and son, so why should I pay attention to words! Do you pay attention to words when facing a murderer!"

Chen Yi's chest trembled uncontrollably, and every sentence he said became more vicious.

The ear-piercing voice seemed to bring Chen Shiqian back to the nightmares that haunted him for countless nights a few years ago.

He subconsciously clenched his fists.

"Chen Shiqian, it's hard for me, and don't think about it for you!"

This sentence was repeated in Chen Shiqian's mind over and over again like a mantra, lingering for a long time.

Mr. Jiang, who had watched the play all night, put out the cigarette in his hand, and dragged his tongue in a lazy tone: "It seems that your Professor Chen is in trouble."

Someone in this room was unhappy, and someone in that room simply made a little padded jacket.

Hastily hung up Jiang Tianyi's phone, then dialed the familiar number again.

The call is connected.

Sang Jiu's voice was as usual, and he invited him with a soft smile: "Professor Chen, there is a light show by the riverside, do you want to go together?"

As if by magic, Chen Shiqian felt that the gloom on his head had dissipated a lot, and his mind was filled with her bright face, so he replied softly, "Okay."

When he was going out, he bumped into Jiang Tianyi head-on, and the other party smiled incongruously, and asked knowingly: "Uncle, where are you going in such a hurry?"

Chen Shiqian didn't say much, and after saying "sorry", he hurriedly left.

Sang Jiu's residence is not far from Linjiang, so he didn't drive, and walked slowly to his destination.

Shanghai has developed rapidly in the past few years. Linjiang is a tourist attraction and tonight's light show, there are many people gathered by the river at this moment.

When Chen Shiqian found Sang Jiu, she was sitting alone on a bench by the river enjoying the night view.

He always felt that it was difficult for one person to perfectly blend indifference and enthusiasm, just like now, she was sitting alone in a chair, surrounded by gorgeous lights and lively crowds, even in this environment, she could still stay out of it, But in the next second, she can still chat with strangers, even if the other party is just to strike up a conversation.

"Mulberry wine—"

Chen Shiqian called her not far away.

After hearing the voice, she was stunned for a while, and then said something to the boy beside her, who left with some regret after listening.

Then, he trotted all the way to his side and asked him deliberately: "Professor Chen, guess what I just told him?"

Sang Jiu's words were obviously waiting for him to ask back, but there was someone who didn't fall into the trap and remained expressionless.

Even so, she was not annoyed, and looked at him meaningfully, "I told him that my boyfriend is here."

The people on the side were still indifferent, she sighed.

What a scumbag.

In recent years, the government has banned fireworks in the city, but businesses always have strange ideas.If you can’t have a fireworks show, then have a light show. No matter how you do it, people always want to be fresh and lively for a while.

Hundreds of colorful lights of different colors form a circle on the surface of the river, and there is a musical fountain in the center, and many people gather around to take pictures.

The riverside streets are covered with big red lanterns, and the street lights on both sides are lit up to the end. Under the endless lights, there are hearts eager to find a sense of belonging in the city.

The two walked quietly side by side, and suddenly Sang Jiu stopped in front of a stall selling lanterns.

The boss was an elderly man, and he asked her in poor Mandarin: "Little girl, do you want to buy a lantern? You can also write down your wishes on a piece of paper and put them in the lantern and hang them on the tree. Here, you Look at them all buying."

Sure enough, there were many people under the tree beside them, holding lanterns in their hands, jumping and hanging on the treetops.

Sang Jiu smiled and asked, "Is this wish valid?"

"Whether it works or not depends on the young lady's heart. If the heart is sincere, the Buddha will naturally appear."

She turned around and glanced at Chen Shiqian.

Strange to say, she was never interested in these things before, but after meeting him, she found it more interesting, so she pointed to the lantern next to her, "I want it."

The boss immediately gave it to her, along with a pen and paper.

Sang Jiu quickly finished writing and stuffed it into the lantern, and ran under the tree to try to hang it.

Most of the lower treetops were already covered, so she had no choice but to hang them higher up, but because of the dim light, she failed to hang them several times.

Chen Shiqian couldn't stand it anymore, and walked over to take the lantern in her hand.

When he leaned over to approach, Sang Jiu asked a familiar smell of cedar, and there was a thick cloth between the two, obviously there was no charm, but she suddenly felt her heart skip a beat.

Under the dim light, two shadows intertwine with each other, like a lover's embrace.

The sudden light above his head made Sang Jiu stunned for a moment, and when he looked up again, the lantern was already hanging firmly on the branch, and the red tassels hanging down swayed, showing an indescribable swaying posture in the flowing light from the sky.

After the two walked the entire street, they returned along the original road by the river.

During this period, Sang Jiu was always talking, and Chen Shiqian would answer a few words from time to time. This way of getting along was unexpectedly harmonious, as if they were old couples who had been married for many years.

On the way, Sang Jiu asked him suddenly: "Don't you ask me what I wrote in the lantern just now?"

Her eyes became brighter in the twilight, staring at him without blinking, Chen Shiqian felt as if he had been bewitched and nodded.

"What I wrote is," the person in front of him smiled with sincere eyes, "I hope everything goes well for Chen Shiqian."

Everything is going well.

Those who make wishes are really greedy.

Chen Shiqian's eyes felt a little sore.

After a long time, the most comfortable smile of the night finally appeared on his face, and he said from the bottom of his heart:

"Sangjiu, thank you."

Thank you for appearing in my barren life.

Thank you for going out of your way to chisel a light around me.
