When Shengxia came out of Sheng's house, the tears in her eyes finally flowed down.
"Miss." The butler caught up from behind.
"Butler grandpa." Shengxia wiped away her tears, not wanting anyone to see her vulnerable side.
"Miss, are you okay?"
"It's okay." Shengxia shook her head.
"Miss, please take care of yourself. The butler sees that you have lost weight." The butler watched Shengxia grow up and has always felt sorry for her since she was a child.
"I know you suffered a lot injustice for what happened back then, but... but the living still have to move on."
"I know, Grandpa Butler, but... they killed my mother, and I really can't let it go." She really couldn't let it go. If she let it go, it would be like forgetting her mother.
"Grandpa Butler knows that our Xia Xia has suffered. Grandpa Butler can't help our Xia Xia, but Xia Xia you must take good care of yourself."
"Well, Grandpa Butler, I will take good care of myself."
"Here, take this. This is your favorite rose cake."
"Here, this is what the housekeeper just made." The housekeeper handed a box to Shengxia.
"Grandpa, thank grandma for me."
"No need. If our Xia Xia wants to eat, just call grandpa. Grandpa will ask your grandma to make it. When it's ready, grandpa will send it to you."
"Yes, grandpa." Shengxia looked at the rose pastry in her hand. This was her and her mother's favorite food.
She hadn't eaten it for a long time, not since her mother left.
"Well, Grandpa, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
"Okay, you young people, go and do what you need to do. If you want to eat the rose cakes made by the housekeeper grandma in the future, remember to tell grandpa. As long as our Xia Xia wants to eat them, she can eat them anytime."
"Well, thank you, grandpa."
"Take care of yourself, Xia Xia."
"Well, Grandpa, I...I'm leaving first."
Shengxia got into the car with the rose cake given by the housekeeper.
Shengxia returned to the car and carefully placed the rose cake on the seat.
He drove away from this place suddenly.
Except for the housekeeper grandpa and grandma, she didn't want to see anyone here.
I drove aimlessly in the midsummer, not knowing where I was going.
She doesn’t want to go to the company, nor does she want to go home. She feels very heartbroken now.
I feel like I'm almost numb from the pain.

bar.
Midsummer finally came to the bar.
She drank glass of liquor after glass, hoping to numb herself temporarily so that the wound in her heart would not hurt so much.
"Another bottle of wine."
People around saw Shengxia sitting alone drinking, and soon someone came up to talk to Shengxia.
"Beauty, alone?"
Shengxia ignored him and continued drinking his wine.
"Don't be like this, beauty. It's boring to drink alone. Why don't we drink together?"
"Want to pick me up?" Shengxia took a sip of wine and turned her head to glance at the man sitting next to her.
The man kept getting closer to Shengxia: "It seems that the beauty is still an old hand."
"More than an old hand, I am also a master of spiciness."
Shengxia put down the cup, "Do you want to try it?"
"Get lost." Shengxia uttered a word lightly.
"Another bottle of wine."
"Sister, you really can't drink anymore." The person who spoke was Xu Tingzhen.
"Why is it you?" Shengxia also recognized that the person in front of her was the student she donated money to.
"Sister, do you still remember me?"
"I don't have Alzheimer's disease, so how could I not remember? Why... are you still here? Didn't I tell you to go back to school?"
"I know sister, I am studying hard."
"Then...then why are you still here?"
"I just come here to earn some pocket money." The reason why Xu Tingzhen did not resign was that he wanted to earn some living expenses here to reduce the burden on his family.
"Study hard and don't work outside and delay your studies. If you don't have money, call your sister." Shengxia said and wanted to take out her business card.
"Where is my bag?" Shengxia didn't see her bag for a moment and thought it was slung over her shoulder, forgetting that she had put it on the table.
"Here, this is for you. If you need money, call your sister." Shengxia took out her business card and gave it to Xu Tingzhen.
"No need, sister. The money you gave me last time is enough." The reason she came out was to earn more money to reduce the burden on her family.
"By the way, how...how was your game?"
“I won the competition and have secured a place to go abroad.”
"That's good, get me another bottle of wine."
"Sister, you've already had a few drinks. You'd better stop drinking. Drinking too much is not good for your health."
"But...but if I don't drink it, my heart will really...really hurt."
"But even if you numb yourself temporarily, the pain will still come when you wake up tomorrow."
“It’s good that it doesn’t hurt for a while…” Sometimes the pain is so severe that I can hardly bear it.
"Don't drink anymore, sister."
"Here." Shengxia gave the wine money to Xu Tingzhen.
It’s not fun to drink here, so I’d better leave first.
"Sister, let me take you out."
"No, I'm not drunk yet."
After just a few drinks, she wasn't drunk at all.
After going out, Shengxia bought two boxes of beer and drove to a roadside facing the river.
Sitting next to the car and drinking bottle of beer.
It was getting dark and the evening breeze was a little cold.
My face turned a little red from the cold wind in midsummer.
Looking into the distance, Shengxia thought about her mother.
The scene of her mother's death was forever engraved in her mind.
"Mom, are you okay over there?"
"Xia Xia... Xia Xia, I won't let others destroy your hard work."
"It's just... Xia Xia really misses you, Mom."
"I wish you were still here, Mom."
Now the summer is just as Jiang Huaijing said, she really has nothing.
My beloved mother is gone.
My once beloved fiancé is gone.
The father who once loved me betrayed my mother.
She lost everything she had to lose.
She once wanted to leave with her mother, but at that time she had her most precious thing.
She lived a strong life, but in the end she lost her most precious thing.
She wanted to go find her mother, but Li Qing saved her and brought her back from the brink of death.
I sat on the roadside for a long time in the hot summer, shivering in the cold wind.
Jiang Huaijing was at the company at this time. Just as he was about to leave work, he received a call from the traffic police.
After receiving the call, Jiang Huaijing ran out of the office in a hurry.
"President."
"President."
"Where are you going? We have a meeting later." Seeing that his president had gone out, the assistant hurriedly called out to his president.
But Jiang Huaijing ignored him and drove away from the company quickly.
