"I love you, will you marry me?"

"Good."

Rong Xuan woke up from the dream, sweating on her back, she got up and poured a glass of water, without turning on the light, she sat down beside the bed.

After drinking the water, her mood was also much calmer. In fact, the dream she had was not terrible, on the contrary, it was very sweet, if the person who proposed to her hadn't died.

She touched the ring on the ring finger of her left hand, but there was another gorgeous and exquisite new ring box on the bedside counter, but she didn't even look at it.

In the morning, after Rong Xuan made breakfast, she went to wake up her four-year-old son Wei Shao. The child was very well behaved. Maybe she knew her mother's hard work, and she seldom cried and listened to her words.

After breakfast, Rong Xuan drove the child to the kindergarten and then went to work.

She didn't work long when a message popped up on the computer,

—Rong Xuan, my brother proposed to you yesterday, what are your thoughts?

Rong Xuan stared at this sentence and was silent for a while, and before she could think of how to respond, the second message popped up, I will go to your house for dinner in the evening.

Rong Xuan tapped 'OK', and the other party returned a smile.

Rong Xuan's job is architectural design. She graduated from a famous university. She is talented and famous in the industry at a young age. After work, I went to see a psychiatrist.

It was a two-year psychological consultation, which was also arranged by Bo Han and Bo Qing to get her out of the shadows.

The shadow is that her lover Wei Jin died unexpectedly in the snow mountain disaster.

When she arrived at the clinic, she found that there was another psychiatrist. He looked gentle and approachable. He said that his surname was Bai. , he came to take his place.

If you change someone, you may be angry because of it, but Rong Xuan doesn't mind it very much. First of all, she doesn't feel that her heart disease is difficult to talk about, and secondly, she doesn't think that psychological counseling can help her much. The reason why I come here every month, just because I don't want Bo Han and Bo Qing to worry about her.

Doctor Bai, that is, Lao Bai opened a blue folder, "I have read the previous conversation records, you still can't forget your lover, right?" He looked up at her road.

Rong Xuan nodded, but there was no sadness on her face. She didn't look like a person who had seen a psychiatrist for two years. However, anyone who knew a little about psychology knew that the appearance of The wounds have healed, but the scars in my heart are hard to heal.

Lao Bai gently placed the folder on the table, and then sincerely said, "I personally do not support Dr. Lin's plan for you to take psychotropic drugs on a regular basis, and you have already taken nearly two It's been years, and drugs can't help you anymore."

What he didn't say is that addicted psychotropic drugs can easily destroy people's spirits.

Rong Xuan was stunned, then nodded hesitantly, accepting Doctor Bai's suggestion.

After seeing the psychiatrist, Rong Xuan went to the supermarket to buy vegetables and drove home. She had to pick up her son Wei Shao, but Bai Qing said she would pick him up, so Rong Xuan gave The kindergarten teacher made a phone call and was relieved.

Bai Qing has a good relationship with her and often helps her take care of her children. At the same time, she is also very happy to see Rong Xuan and her brother Bai Han together, because Bai Han has always loved her deeply, whether it is Before Wei Jin died, or after his death.

Rong Xuan and Bo Qing are good friends who have known each other since school days. It is also because of Bo Qing that Rong Xuan met Bo Han, but Rong Xuan's only love is left to one person, that one The person is Wei Jin, a boy in a white shirt whom he met under the cherry tree on the day the university started.

When Rong Xuan returned home, Bo Qing really brought Wei Shao back. By the way, Bo Qing still has the key to their house. Can't think of it, so I insisted on taking it.

During those difficult years, Bo Qing and Bo Han helped her to get back to the right track of life.

After the meal, Wei Shao was allowed to watch cartoons, while Bai Qing and Rong Xuan were chatting at the dinner table. Bai Qing also showed Rong Xuan a photo of her recent and new boyfriend The sweet photo of her, seeing her so happy, Rong Xuan smiled helplessly, "This is the number one, when will it really be decided?"

Bai Qing blinked, "I think this time it must be the real one."

I don't know when it started, Bai Qing suddenly became a marriage maniac. Before, she didn't even have a boyfriend, but now she has changed several times, and she is always rushing to get married. But it all ended abruptly. Rong Xuan saw that the boyfriends she had made were not bad, and they weren't the kind of people who just grabbed the top bag, so she didn't say much.

While chatting, she brought up the matter of Bo Han's proposal to Rong Xuan. Bo Qing stared at Rong Xuan's eyes tightly, preventing her from changing the subject.

"Brother said he put the wedding ring in your hand, which means you agreed, right?"

Rong Xuan gave a wry smile, but didn't say anything about what happened when Bo Han turned her head and left. In fact, she sometimes wonders why not only Bo Han can pursue so persistently, but even Bo Qing, the younger sister, seems to have no complaints against her, the woman who has been ignoring Bo Han's love.

Bo Qing continued, "Actually, my brother is really good, he is also excellent, and he loves you. You don't have to worry about Xiao Shao, he likes Uncle Han very much."

After a long silence, Rong Xuan said, "I still can't forget him."

Bo Qing was startled, she knew who Rong Xuan was talking about, Rong Xuan couldn't forget him, but who could forget Wei Jin?

She suddenly grabbed Rong Xuan's hand and said earnestly and with an unprecedented firmness, "Rong Xuan, since the person you love is no longer in this world, why don't you try What about accepting someone who loves you? People can't live in the past forever, wake up, he's dead."

The chat between Rong Xuan and Bai Qing did not end up unhappy. In the end, they took the initiative to change the subject and tried their best to avoid Wei Jin's death.

When Bo Qing left, she also cared about Rong Xuan's visit to the psychiatrist. Rong Xuan also didn't ask Bo Qing to hand over the ring, because she knew that Bo Qing would not accept it, and she also felt that it was better for her to return it to Bo Han in person.

But within two days, Rong Xuan heard from Bo Qing that Bo Han was going to a foreign market, so she had to put the ring in advance.

"Who are you?" Rong Xuan frowned slightly, there was no such voice in her memory.

"My surname is Ye, and I am a former friend of Wei Jin. I have something to tell you about Wei Jin. Is it convenient to meet?"

“…good.”

"Then I'll wait for you at the cafe downstairs in your company."

After Rong Xuan hung up the phone, she felt palpitations for some reason, as if something bad would happen.

A former friend of Wei Jin? At Wei Jin's funeral, all his friends came, and I didn't hear who was left.

Rong Xuan took a temporary leave, rushed to the cafe, and quickly found the person on the phone, because there was only a young woman in a red trench coat in the cafe. When Rong Xuan's eyes fell on her, she also raised her eyes to see Rong Xuan and smiled lightly.

Rong Xuan sat down in the seat opposite her, "Are you a friend of Wei Jin?"

The woman in red, Ye Li, smiled slightly, "I'm not."

When Rong Xuan was about to get angry, she heard her say, "But I do have something to tell you about Wei Jin."

"We don't know Wei Jin, how do you know what you said is true or false."

"Wei Jin did not die accidentally."

These two sentences were spoken at the same time, and Ye Li looked at her with a smile, as if she didn't realize how big a bomb she threw, and Rong Xuan froze all over. .

"You, what are you talking about?" Rong Xuan's voice was shaking.

Ye Li handed her a black business card and smiled gently, "You can treat me as a private detective, don't ask me who I am investigating this matter, I only I can tell you what I say is the truth."

After finishing speaking, she got up and patted Rong Xuan's stiff shoulder lightly, and said the last sentence, "When the search and rescue team found Wei Jin, his cell phone was still on."

Then chuckled and left.

Bai Han and Bai Qing never told her that Wei Jin's cell phone was still there, Rong Xuan subconsciously recalled when Wei Jin had an accident, she, Wei Jin, Bai Han, and Bai Qing were together I went skiing in Japan together. The weather was very cold that day, and Bai Qing felt uncomfortable, so she stayed to take care of him, so only Bai Han and Wei Jin went skiing. The day after tomorrow, they heard that the snow-capped mountain suddenly collapsed and caused a mountain disaster.

The search and rescue team searched the mountain overnight and found Bai Han, who was almost frozen, and Wei Jin's body was deeply buried under the snow at a distance of more than 1,000 meters. That's why she never doubted Bai Han, he couldn't have planned it so well.

But if Wei Jin did not die accidentally, there is only one possibility for him, Bai Han.

Rong Xuan made overseas calls all afternoon, all of which were to the local police and search and rescue teams in Japan who were traveling at the time, but after the last call, her heart sank to the bottom.

They did find Wei Jin's mobile phone and gave it to her companion because Rong Xuan, a relative, was emotionally disturbed.

Rong Xuan suddenly picked up the trash can under the desk and retched. She vomited and cried bitterly. She felt disgusting, unspeakable disgust, and suffocated to the point where she could hardly breathe Pain.

No matter how much she vomits, she can't seem to get rid of the pain. Rong Xuan opened the cabinet under the table and frantically took out the psychotropic drugs she had been taking before. Without counting down a handful of white pills, he swallowed them, grabbed the white water on the table and gulped them down.

After a few minutes, her mood really calmed down a lot.

Rong Xuan sat in the office for a long time when her cell phone suddenly rang. It was Wei Shao's kindergarten teacher's call. She came to ask why she hadn't come to pick up Wei Shao.

After Rong Xuan answered the phone, she drove over.
