Yu Ci's house on Pingshan Road is very quiet these days, no matter where he goes, Yu Ci seems to be alone.

The servants still did their job as before, and Yu Ci didn't like too many people around him, so the only one who really communicated with him at home was the housekeeper.

Yu Ci sat on the small sofa, flipped through two pages of the book, and couldn't help but glance at the window, which was where Qiao Hexing usually sat.

Yu Ci's eyes lingered there for a while, he seemed to be able to see Qiao Hexing wearing glasses, looking at the computer and talking with people with earphones at the same time.But his hand unconsciously turned a page in the book, and the shadow of the tree outside fluttered slightly in the wind, casting a small shadow indoors.

It was still empty.

Yu Ci leaned on the sofa and sighed, habit is really a terrible thing.Before Qiao Hexing moved into Pingshan Road, he also lived here alone, but he felt very at ease.Now Qiao Hexing has only been away for a few days, but he feels that the house is too big and too empty, and he can hear his own footsteps when walking inside.

He still remembered the day Qiao Hexing left.

Qiao Hexing came back very late that day, and he was so sleepy that he fell asleep. However, in the middle of the night, his door was pushed open, and he was gently patted awake. When he opened his eyes, he saw Qiao Hexing's figure.

He smelled smoke on Qiao Hexing's body, and just as he raised his head with difficulty, Qiao Hexing kissed him. Qiao Hexing was actually biting him, biting his lower lip gently, sucking the juice on his lips Tender meat pinched his waist with one hand and held him tightly in his arms.

When he let go, Yu Ci suspected that his lips were swollen.

He was half-embraced by Qiao Hexing, who sat beside his bed, the soft bed was slightly sunken.There was only a small bedside lamp turned on in the room, and Yu Ci could clearly see the anxiety in Qiao Hexing's eyes. Although his face was calm, Yu Ci could still feel it.

"What's wrong?" Yu Ci asked involuntarily.

Qiao Hexing looked at Yu Ci for a while, pinched the bridge of his nose, closed his eyes, and said in a low voice, "I have to go back to Qiao's house."

Yu Ci froze for a moment.

Of course he knew that Qiao Hexing would return to Qiao's house one day. Since the marriage contract between Qiao Hexing and Yu Shenyan was false, Qiao Hexing would go back sooner or later to participate in the seizure of power.

But he didn't expect this day to come so soon.

"Then you..." Yu Ci wanted to say a lot, but he looked at Qiao Hexing, but in the end he only shook Qiao Hexing's hand and said, "You have to be careful."

Qiao Hexing brushed Yu Ci's face lightly with his hand, "I may not be able to visit you anytime soon. I may finish solving the Qiao family's affairs in a month, but it may also take a few months to solve it. But in the meantime, I don't want you to be implicated in the Qiao family, although the Yu family is already on our side. But I don't want Qiao Heng and Qiao Jun to find you."

Those two lunatics, Qiao Heng and Qiao Jun, once found a truck to hit him.Especially Qiao Jun, that mindless idiot, once he is forced to jump over the wall, he really can't say what he will do.

Yu Ci swallowed back the words that had already hovered on the tip of his tongue.

Of course he had a lot of worries, but he couldn't tell Qiao Hexing not to go back, and he couldn't rashly ask to participate in something he wasn't familiar with.

"I see." Yu Ci rubbed Qiao Hexing's fingers, his eyes were almost golden brown under the light, "I'll wait for you here."

Qiao Hexing came over and kissed Yu Ci on the forehead again, "I'm afraid I'll have to bring a present when I come to Yu's house next time."

Yu Ci didn't understand.

But Qiao Hexing didn't explain. After saying this, he helped Yu Ci cover the quilt and left.

As if afraid that he would be reluctant to take another look, he left Yu Ci's room without looking back.There were already people from the Qiao family waiting for him outside. In the night sky, the lights on the front of the car were so bright that they were almost dazzling.

Qiao Hexing's figure was exceptionally tall and straight in the headlights of the car, and he looked back at the direction of Yu Ci's room before getting into the car.

And Yu Ci was actually hiding behind the French windows, looking at him until Qiao Hexing's car was no longer visible, Yu Ci was still standing by the window.

Yu Ci sat on the sofa until the evening. Without Qiao Hexing, it seemed that even the game became boring. He read the book for a while and began to prepare materials for a competition.

However, when it was almost time for dinner, Yu Ci stood up to get a drink, and when he passed the railing on the second floor, he found that the door was half open.

Yu Ci's heart skipped a beat, he couldn't help standing still, looking straight at the past, he almost thought it was Qiao Hexing who had returned.

However, the doors were all pushed open, and it was Yu Chenyan and Shang Ming who came in.

Yu Ci's heart fell back to the original place heavily.

It's not that he doesn't want Yu Shenyan and Shang Ming, but he has been separated from Qiao Hexing for too long, and he desperately wants to see Qiao Hexing's face.

Yu Ci was not in the mood to get drinks anymore, he stood beside the railing for a long time in a daze, until Yu Chenyan found him and called him strangely, then he came down to eat.

During the meal, Yu Ci couldn't hold back, looked at his father, then at Shang Ming, and asked, "Dad, how is Qiao Hexing's family doing? You've been so busy recently, is it related to the Qiao family? "

Yu Ci is usually not very interested in these business matters, but when he asked about Qiao's house, Yu Chenyan was not surprised.After all, Qiao Hexing has lived here for so long and has a good relationship with Yu Ci.

"The situation in the Qiao family is not good. After all, Qiao Li has been ill for too long." Yu Chenyan pondered for a while, "But you don't need to worry, I know you have a good relationship with Qiao Hexing, that little fox," Yu Chen said Yan paused, and swallowed the "little fox" that came to his lips, "Your senior is not a vegetarian, and Qiao Li is even more cunning and cunning, so it's no time to worry about it. The Qiao family will get Qiao Hexing sooner or later." superior."

Yu Chenyan couldn't help but softly "tsk", compared to when he fought for power and profit in the hands of a bunch of uncles, and stepped on the mountain of swords and blood all the way to the top, Qiao Hexing can be said to be very lucky, his father paved the way himself, and the two brothers Not a bit of soup.

He raised his eyes, only to find that Yu Ci was still staring at him, with round eyes, biting his chopsticks unconsciously, like a little hamster.

"Dad, what about Qiao Hexing?" Yu Ci asked anxiously, "Is he alright?"

Yu Chenyan couldn't help but slightly frowned, wondering if Yu Ci and Qiao Hexing have such a good relationship?

He didn't care much about Yu Ci's making friends, but he hoped that Yu Ci would be surrounded by a simple rich young man like Xu Cheng, instead of Qiao Hexing, who was dark at first glance.

"What's wrong with him?" Yu Chenyan said, "It must be tiring for a while, but he will be the heir of the Qiao family after he survives, and it's a good deal."

How many people wish to be "tired" like this, Yu Shenyan thought.

Yu Ci didn't ask any more questions, knowing that Qiao Hexing was fine, he put a stone down in his heart.Qiao Hexing actually called him twice, but hung up hastily within a few minutes.

Yu Ci picked up a piece of short ribs and sent it to his father's bowl like a dog, "Dad, you must be very tired these two days." It was really hard work helping Qiao Hexing to grab the family property.

Yu Chenyan looked at his son, not showing it on the face, but he was still very happy in his heart.Although he was always ridiculed for not being able to take care of children, Yu Ci was after all the cub he held in his arms since he was a child, so he was caring.

Shang Ming glanced sideways at Yu Chenyan, and lightly touched Yu Chenyan's hand under the table.

Yu Chenyan remembered today's "business".

"A Ci, speaking of this, there is one more thing I need to tell you." Yu Shenyan carefully chose his words, "Didn't I tell you before that I was engaged to Qiao Hexing? That was actually a lie."

Yu Ci was also gnawing on short ribs, but when he heard this, he raised his head, and the short ribs fell into the small white porcelain bowl with a clatter.

But Yu Ci considered the way he and Qiao Hexing came out, and chose the latter in the face of shock and frank confession. He blinked and said, "I guessed it."

Now it was Yu Chenyan's turn to be stunned, "You know?"

"Well, you and Qiao Hexing have never lived together before," Yu Ci whispered, "He has returned to Qiao's house now, so I knew you were not a couple, but I didn't expect that even the engagement was fake. "

Yu Chenyan and Shang Ming looked at each other.

"That, that's good." Yu Chenyan swallowed back the words that were originally used to explain with a complicated mood, "In short, it's such a thing. I have nothing to do with Qiao Hexing, it was just to cover up people's eyes and ears."

Yu Ci secretly glanced at his father, and asked schemingly, "Dad, would you mind if the senior gets married and engaged with someone else in the future?"

"No," Yu Chenyan said bluntly, "Who he marries has nothing to do with me."

"Oh." Yu Ci happily agreed, and continued to eat short ribs.

Because of Qiao Hexing's absence, Yu Shenyan didn't need to avoid suspicion anymore, he and Shang Ming also stayed at Pingshan Road today.

After Yu Ci came out of the shower, he remembered that he had left a tablet downstairs during the day, and there was a file in it, which was not backed up on other electronic devices, so he went downstairs to get it.

It was already late at night, and it would be twelve o'clock in a while.

Yu Ci's footsteps were very light, and the soft soles of his shoes stepped on the wooden floor without making any sound.However, just a few steps down the stairs, Yu Ci stopped, and he saw two embracing shadows with their backs facing him at the edge of the living room.

He opened his eyes wide and subconsciously hid behind the wall in a panic.

But after a few seconds, he couldn't help poking his head out quietly.

On the side of the living room, his father was wearing a black bathrobe, with the open neckline revealing a large expanse of fair skin.And Shang Ming was still wearing an iron gray suit.

He fits suits very well, and has a cold and deadly air.

But at this moment, Shang Ming's expression was very gentle, he held Yu Chenyan's face, and gently pecked and kissed Yu Chenyan's lips.

Yu Chenyan smiled, and took a few steps back, not knowing what to say.

Yu Ci didn't dare to look any further, he covered his mouth, and while Shang Ming and Yu Chenyan weren't paying attention, he sneaked up the stairs again.

Yu Ci returned to the room, and finally let go of his mouth.

In an instant, Yu Chenyan's slightly swollen lips, Shang Ming's eyes looking at Yu Chenyan, and the way Shang Ming held Yu Chenyan in his arms on a rainy day all flooded into Yu Ci's mind.

He jumped on the spot several times, his mind was in a mess and he couldn't calm down.

When did his father get together with Uncle Shang? How long have they been together? !

Yu Ci patted his face, deeply suspecting that there was something wrong with his eyes. Yu Chenyan and Shang Ming were in love right under his nose, but he didn't realize it.

But after thinking about it, he and Qiao Hexing had been sneaking together for so long, and Yu Chenyan didn't notice, so he was relieved.

Thinking of Qiao Hexing, Yu Ci subconsciously picked up his phone, wanting to share this explosive gossip with him.

However, picking up the phone, the phone slid to Qiao Hexing's number page, and Yu Ci's hand stopped again.

Now, he can't contact Qiao Hexing anytime and anywhere like before.

Yu Ci put down the phone again.

The page on the phone was only bright for a moment and then dimmed.

He sat by the window, it was already twelve o'clock, the whole city fell into silence, only a few central places were still brightly lit.

The glass window reflected the gloomy and lonely face, he put his palm on the glass window, and sighed softly.
