For some reason, Ye Tingchu looked straight into Ye Kong's eyes through the French window without shifting his gaze at all.

There was a pause, and Ye Kongxian calmly withdrew his gaze. Ye Tingchu on the other side closed the car door with a delayed reaction.

She slowly walked to the door of the store, and just as she was about to step in, she stopped.

I don’t know what he was thinking about, but he slowly retracted his leg.

——In Qu Wu’s complex and indistinct vision, Mr. Xiao Ye turned around and leaned against the wall outside the door.

In the coffee shop, Ye Kong raised his hand to take the card handed over by Lin Yu, glanced at it and put it down: "I don't really like visiting other people's homes."

"It's okay, I won't force it."

Lin Yu said: "The police may summon you again later to make a simple statement."

"Ah."

"If possible, can you exchange phone numbers with me?" The man took out his cell phone and shook it at her. His tone and expression were calm. "You can call me if you have any problems in the future."

Ye Kong had no objection to this.

She handed the phone over, watched the man operate it, and then took it back. She glanced at the note, which was the proper word "Lin Yu".

·

Before leaving the coffee shop, Lin Yu suddenly stopped and turned to look at Ye Kong who was about to go to the cashier: "When you were a child, you said you liked long-haired big dogs. Is that true?"

Ye Kong glanced at him and said nothing.

"I have a Border Collie and two Golden Retrievers. If you like, I can bring them to play with you next time."

"..." Ye Kong stared at him for a while, then suddenly laughed, "Officer Lin, do you really treat me as your sister?"

"...Actually, she's not a sister but a daughter. After all, someone called her uncle so sweetly."

Ye Kong: ...

Lin Yu said indifferently, "God knows I was even a non-marriage advocate before that, but now I have become a bachelor who hates marriage and I will go to blind dates whenever my parents ask me to."

Ye Kong: ...

"Then you haven't married yet?" Ye Kong realized something was wrong and changed his words, "You haven't got a wife yet?"

“…I’m too busy at work.”

Lin Yu glanced at her with an indescribable look, "This is all thanks to you."

"..." Ye Kong's face was filled with the expression "Can this have anything to do with me?"

Lin Yu did not explain any more, and just said: "I am your guest after all, why don't you see me off?"

“…I don’t have such rules here.”

Having said that, Ye Kong still followed him out.

As soon as he stepped out of the store, Ye Kong saw Ye Tingchu leaning beside him out of the corner of his eye.

Xiao Ye always wears a simple silk shirt, which looks like he just picked it up at random, and the collar is even a little uneven.

She raised her head when she heard the noise, her eyes silent as she glanced at Ye Kong and then looked at the man next to Ye Kong.

"Officer Lin."

The woman's low voice made Lin Yu stop.

Glancing at Ye Kong again, Ye Tingchu asked in a low voice: "Can I ask, what are you doing here?"

"Come and meet Ye Shiyi."

Lin Yu also glanced at Ye Kong, and seeing that she had a flat reaction, he said, "She is my wild sister, the kind that has been lost for many years."

"...sister?" Ye Tingchu murmured again.

Ye Kong curled his lips in disdain: "Don't recognize random sisters."

She said, "I have already sent you out, can you leave by yourself?"

Lin Yu was helpless and shrugged, "My parents are really looking forward to meeting you. If you are willing, you are welcome to visit my house anytime."

Before Lin Yu got into the car, Ye Kong turned around first, grabbed Lin Xinzhou who was following him and asked, "What's wrong with your cousin?"

Lin Xinzhou was about to turn around, but when he looked up, he saw Ye Tingchu standing at the door of the store.

Xiao Ye never said a word. Even with his head down and expressionless, he still had an aura that made people afraid to speak loudly.

She immediately shut up.

Because of Ye Kong, he didn't dare to sneak away, so he had to stand there straight, stiff as if he had been acupunctured and full of anxiety about being implicated.

Ye Kong: ...

"You go in first."

She mercifully let it go.

Only after Lin Xinzhou walked in did she turn her gaze to Ye Tingchu.

"Mr. Xiaoye." She addressed him, "What can I do for you?"

"..."

Ye Ting didn't seem to be shocked by this title at first. He just looked at her calmly, with a calm observation: "I just came to confirm your condition."

"Has it been confirmed now?"

"It's over."

"Then you can go."

She was about to walk past Ye Tingchu when she suddenly heard Ye Tingchu ask her, "Even if we're not sisters, what should I do if I want to see you in the future?"

"Would you tolerate my presence if I wore a mask? -- like he does?"

Ye Tingchu's gaze passed over Ye Kong's shoulder and looked behind her.

Ye Kong turned his head following her gaze and saw the Qin siblings walking towards him.

Qin Ranqiu lowered his head and followed behind Qin Jianbai, while Qin Jianbai...

Qin Jianbai was wearing a mask.

And it was not the fox mask that looked quite handsome when he saw her last time, but the one that Ye Kong had written on it.

With the word "ugly" written in a dragon-and-phoenix pattern on his right cheek, Qin Jianbai walked over in the spotlight of many passers-by.

"I said last time that I would fix the mask."

He raised his hand and touched the words on his right cheek. "It took a lot of effort, but I did fix it."

Ye Kong: ...

Even Ye Kong couldn't help but reveal an expression of looking at a lunatic. He glanced at Qin Ranqiu who was following behind Qin Jianbai without looking up: "What are you two doing here again? Miss Qin didn't finish the play yesterday and wants to continue? Or..."

She looked at Qin Jianbai: "Are you here to apologize for your sister again?"

"Since we came here together, it's definitely not me apologizing on her behalf."

Qin Jianbai's tone was calm but with a hint of bitterness: "It was my sister herself...who wanted to come and apologize."

Ye Kong looked at Qin Ranqiu.

The latter clenched his hands into fists at his sides. After a long while, he slowly raised his head, revealing a pair of red eyes.

The moment he met her gaze, Ye Kong laughed: "That look doesn't look like you're here to apologize, does it?"

"How could that be?" Qin Jianbai said in a heavy voice, "My sister...has deeply realized her mistake. She really came here to apologize. I hope Miss Ye can forgive her."

Ye Kong: ...

A strange sense of disharmony made Ye Kong subconsciously tilt his head.

The next second she heard Qin Jianbai's low cry: "Sister?"

These two short words seemed to carry a plea, yet they sounded icy cold because the tone was too low - a bone-chilling chill instantly pierced his spine, and a strange sense of danger made Ye Kong subconsciously take a half step back.

At the same time, she saw a scene that made her forget all her feelings for a moment.

-

Qin Ranqiu knelt down in front of her.

It's like a slow motion replay.

This second was infinitely stretched.

I can still vividly remember the shocked expressions of the second generation who were watching the excitement through the floor-to-ceiling window behind me.

The images of the students not far away who were walking by and stopping to turn around were all clearly visible.

It was so long that it gave people the illusion that they could hear the loud thump of the woman's knee hitting the ground.

——Qin Ranqiu really knelt down.

Qin Jianbai, who was standing in front of her, with his body in black clothes, was reflected straight in Ye Kong's pupils.

He didn't even turn his head, but just lowered his head slightly, as if he was also heartbroken for his sister who was kneeling behind him, or perhaps he was confessing along with his sister.
