Chu Qingyun learned that Xia Zuoyang had killed someone before, and she almost collapsed.

She simply couldn't imagine that the man she had spent the night with had actually done something that she thought was so far away that it would only exist in TV dramas.

But it wasn't until she got back to her apartment and lay on the bed thinking about it all night that she realized that fact.

Although she doesn't know what happened in his past, what she knows about the man she knows now is that he seems indifferent, but in essence, he is not as vicious as the crime he was charged with.

Chu Qingyun is not the kind of naive girl who loses her virginity and wants to die, but she is not the kind of bold and unrestrained woman who regards this kind of relationship between men and women as ordinary as drinking water and eating.

She just has a special feeling for that man.

Dad's words may be true, but in any case, he must at least find out the truth of the matter, and then decide how to choose.

Although she was very anxious, Chu Qingyun still contacted Xia Zuoyang the next day.

The moment the phone was connected, Chu Qingyun felt her heart beating violently.

"Is there something wrong with me?"

Xia Zuoyang on the other end of the phone didn't seem to think that Chu Qingyun had learned the truth about some things, and there was not much emotion in his tone.

"Well...can you come out tonight, I have something to ask you."

Xia Zuoyang on the other end of the phone hesitated for a moment, but still agreed.

"Ok."

"See you at seven o'clock at the place where we had coffee together last time."

Chu Qingyun hung up the phone, still a little uneasy in her heart, she was a little scared, afraid of knowing the truth, afraid that if she asked Xia Zuoyang after meeting, he would admit that what her father said was true.

The time passed very slowly until seven o'clock. In the torment and waiting, she finally waited for the appointment time.

Sitting in that familiar coffee shop, the environment is still the same, and the coffee is still the same, but the mood at this time is quite different from the original one.

"If you came to me because of what happened that day, I have nothing to say except that it was an accident."

"No, don't get me wrong. I've already said that I don't intend to put pressure on you. I asked you to come today because I have something very important to ask you. However, I hope you can answer me truthfully. "

Chu Qingyun mustered up the courage to speak out her thoughts.

"You ask." Although it is not clear why the woman said it so solemnly and seriously, to him, it seems that there is no question that he cannot answer.

Having received Xia Zuoyang's promise, Chu Qingyun brewed her emotions for a while, and then slowly asked the question she was most afraid of but wanted to know the answer to most: "Can you tell me what you used to do?"

Chu Qingyun's question immediately stopped Xia Zuoyang.

Since this woman has known her for so long, she has been very sensible and has never tried to touch her past and privacy, but why is she suddenly interested in this matter this time.

But at this moment, Xia Zuoyang had no intention of pursuing that question, because what he was facing now was how to answer it.

He looked at Chu Qingyun's face, in those eyes that had always been gentle and clear, apart from the usual true feelings, there was also a hint of sadness and confusion.

Looking at those eyes, Xia Zuoyang, who had never seriously interpreted this woman's heart, actually felt a bit of distress.

Xia Zuoyang's silence made Chu Qingyun once again confirm the fact that he was really hiding something from himself.

As the sadness in Chu Qingyun's eyes gradually expanded, Xia Zuoyang finally asked back: "Did you hear something?"

Chu Qingyun and him looked at each other, squeezed out a wry smile, and asked a little sadly: "What do you think I should hear?"

Xia Zuoyang didn't answer, because he didn't know how to answer.

"So, what I heard should be true, right?"

Chu Qingyun suddenly felt a little regretful, why did she ask this embarrassing question for both of them.

"Yes, I admit, I have been in prison for a full 15 years."

Xia Zuoyang said suddenly, as if he had decided to accept the result with peace of mind.

"you……"

Chu Qingyun didn't know why he could answer her so calmly. For a moment, she even fantasized in her heart that he would lie to her once, even if he told a lie, she would try to believe his lie.

But after the mystery was revealed, Xia Zuoyang seemed to be relieved, his face relaxed, and he began to speak calmly: "You can't imagine what it's like to be locked up in a prison for fifteen years, right?" ? Let me tell you, if I had a choice, I would rather commit suicide than stay in there for one more day. The tormented days are unbearable for most people. Can you imagine that I stayed in there for 15 years?"

When Xia Zuoyang finished saying this, Chu Qingyun was stunned by the feeling on his face that seemed to see through everything and seemed to hate the world.

She tried to understand and feel his despair and helplessness, but after all, she couldn't resemble it, because for a person who longs for himself, being trapped in an isolated place for 15 years is a kind of How desolate and sad?

Forgetting the terrible things she did to this man, at this moment, Chu Qingyun only felt sorry for him.

"If that's the case, then why do you still do that kind of thing?"

"What are you doing? You mean murder?" Xia Zuoyang laughed at himself.

Chu Qingyun looked at him with some confusion, why he could still be so calm when it came to killing people.

"I don't know who you heard that story from, but I guess the version you heard must have been incomplete."

"What do you mean by that?"

"Although nearly 16 years have passed, what happened back then is still clearly engraved in my mind, and I have never forgotten it. That kind of scene was scary. If you know that I was just a high school freshman As for the graduate students, what kind of mood will they have when they face that kind of thing, you may no longer feel that I am exaggerating."

"Can you tell me?"

"Why are you suddenly interested in this matter?"

"I... I just want to know more about your past."

Chu Qingyun glanced around, she always felt that some guests next to her were secretly looking at this side, although the atmosphere here is very soft and soothing, but in this kind of place, Chu Qingyun still can't help but talk about that kind of topic Living will feel a little out of place.

Xia Zuoyang is not cold-blooded, nor is he a fool. Of course, he can see this woman's unusual feelings for him, but this feeling is too heavy for him, so heavy that he feels that he can't afford it. .

"Understand me? What's the point of understanding?" Xia Zuoyang laughed at himself. The difference in identities between the two of them and the special entanglement made him unable to face it calmly.

"I just want to know."

For some reason, Chu Qingyun suddenly became a little irritable.

She has always been gentle, and she doesn't know why she has such emotions and reactions, but she doesn't want to be kept in the dark about this matter forever. Between her and this man, that barrier must be broken.

Chu Qingyun's reaction made Xia Zuoyang a little surprised. He subconsciously looked around, and suddenly raised his voice by one degree in this quiet place, which would naturally attract many people's attention.

"You really want to know? Are you sure you won't regret it if you know?"

"No." Although she didn't know why Xia Zuoyang asked herself this way, she still firmly believed that she wanted to know the whole story of this matter.

"How would you feel if I told you that your dad was involved in this?"

"What?!" Chu Qingyun opened her eyes wide and looked at Xia Zuoyang in shock. She didn't understand what this meant.

"As I said, you will regret asking this question after hearing it."

"You said my father was involved in this matter? Are you lying to me?"

"Cheat you? Oh, why should I lie to you?"

"What does it have to do with my father?" At this moment, Chu Qingyun wanted to know what happened at that time.

"Okay, since you asked today, I'll tell you the whole thing."

After finishing speaking, Xia Zuoyang began to explain to Chu Qingyun everything that happened that day, including Chu Lingyun's disappearance and how Chu Jianwu urged him to surrender himself.

Chu Qingyun didn't even know how she insisted on listening to it.

But no matter how tense the process was, this result made Chu Qingyun somewhat unacceptable.

In my mind, such a tall father actually did such a thing of using money to gamble on people's mouths.

She couldn't believe that this man had such a relationship with her brother, but she couldn't believe that the brother she loved and respected the most would be the kind of person who would leave his friends and run away alone in times of crisis.

"How is it? Do you think this story is as exciting as in a movie?"

Chu Qingyun could hear the irony in Xia Zuoyang's words. If everything he said was true, then it would not be unreasonable for him to hate his father and brother.

But there was one thing that made her feel even more chilled: "So, you already knew that Chu Jianwu is my father and Chu Lingyun is my brother, right?"

"Yes. I knew it all along."

Chu Qingyun looked straight at him, she never thought that Xia Zuoyang would be the kind of person who would use herself for revenge, but the fact was so cruel in front of her, she couldn't help but not believe it.

"Then you... are you using me to get revenge on my dad and my brother?"

Xia Zuoyang was silent for a moment, Chu Qingyun's guess was good, but it was only half right.

Seeing his reaction, Chu Qingyun got the answer she wanted.

Laughing self-deprecatingly: "Hehe, I'm so stupid, I actually jumped into the fire pit on my own initiative."

"I admit that I did intend to use you at the beginning, but in the end, things are not what you think."

"What do you mean?"

Xia Zuoyang hesitated for a moment, and said slowly: "It means that I gave up later."

"why?"

"Because, because I found out that I like you."
