Xia Yuan didn't go home all night, but drove around in the dark and deserted streets and alleys of Haicheng in a daze.

Liu Jia called him before 12 o'clock, and asked him with concern if something happened to the school. Why has there been no news?He used the excuse that his mentor was looking for him, and easily deceived Liu Jia.Han Ling always said that Liu Jia and Xia Zhifei were not sincere to him, but just used him as a tool to blackmail Xia Zhicheng.But in his impression, Xia Zhifei was really a good father, gentle and patient.Although Liu Jia was a strict mother, she never showed much concern for him.If there is no Han Ling, they are really a good family, but unfortunately there is no if in this world.

Xia Yuan didn't know where he could go, he didn't want to go home, and he didn't want to go back to the cold apartment alone.He finally parked the car outside the gate of Chi Yiheng's family compound.Under the darkness of night, the whole neighborhood was quiet, only the dim street lights meandering inward from the gate of the neighborhood.Xia Yuan looked at those lights intently, imagining Xia Ze's sleep at this time.Being under the same starry sky with Xia Ze at such a close distance gave him the feeling that he had never been alienated from Xia Ze.

Xia Yuan didn't know when he fell in love with Xia Ze.When he was young, because Xia Zhicheng liked him, Chi Xinyun would take him to live with him for a few days from time to time.He watched Xia Ze's birth, watched Xia Ze learn to walk slowly from a small group, and grew up day by day.At that time, Xia Ze was just a novelty toy in his eyes, he liked to hear Xia Ze call him brother indistinctly, he liked to see Xia Ze smile at him, and hand him the cake in his hand in a fawning manner.However, Chi Xinyun's death changed everything.

He couldn't face Xia Ze for a while, as long as he saw Xia Ze's eyes, he would think of Chi Xinyun.After Chi Xinyun passed away, he had a serious illness.Not long after he recovered from his illness, he heard that Xia Zhicheng was getting married.The bride is not Han Ling, but another woman.

After hearing the news, he secretly went to see Xia Ze, wondering if it was because no one was taking care of him, Xia Ze lost a lot of weight, and was sitting on the ground crying with a toy in his arms.He didn't understand at the time, but seeing Xia Ze crying, he felt sad and guilty, and then he realized that feeling is called guilt.He began to spend a lot of time by Xia Ze's side, he clumsily learned to take care of Xia Ze, patiently told Xia Ze stories, and he watched Xia Ze grow up day by day.Kindergarten, elementary school, middle school, he guarded Xia Ze almost like atonement, he has too many secrets from Xia Ze, but he can't say anything.No matter how crazy Han Ling was, she was still his mother, and no matter how selfish Xia Zhicheng was, she was also his father.He hated them, but pitied them deformedly.

Guilt, self-blame, fear... He had too many complicated emotions when facing Xia Ze, and what was even more sad was that he didn't know when he added a favorite to these emotions.After repeatedly experiencing self-loathing, he forcibly buried this love in his heart, and stayed by Xia Ze's side like a good brother.

He pretended nothing had happened in front of Xia Ze, but only he knew how scared he was, afraid that one day the secrets he concealed would come to light...

In this way, Xia Yuan thought about his past experience over and over again. After dawn, he drove to Xia's house and found Xia Zhicheng.After not sleeping all night, Xia Yuan's condition didn't look good, but his spirit wasn't exhausted at all.

For Xia Yuan's arrival, Xia Zhicheng was very surprised. "Xiaoyuan, so early, is something wrong?"

Zhou Hanqing followed closely behind Xia Zhicheng, with a gentle smile on his face, but no smile in his eyes.Xia Yuan nodded politely with Zhou Hanqing, then turned to Xia Zhicheng indifferently, "Third Uncle, I have something to ask you."

He said this because he wanted to have a private conversation with Xia Zhicheng, Zhou Hanqing remained calm, smiled and motioned for the two to sit in the living room, and she went back to the room to leave the space in the living room for them.Xia Yuan stood there without moving, Xia Zhicheng took a deep look at Zhou Hanqing, and said, "Xiao Yuan, come to the study with me."

Seeing the backs of the two disappeared at the stairs, the smile on Zhou Hanqing's face disappeared, and his expression turned cold.What did Xia Yuan come to Xia Zhicheng for?You must also avoid talking to her. Could it be related to Han Ling?What's annoying is that Xia Zhicheng took Xia Yuan to the study, but she couldn't hear it even if she wanted to.

Zhou Hanqing took a deep breath to calm herself down. Ever since she knew about Han Ling's existence, she was always restless.She could bear Xia Zhicheng's concealment from her, but it didn't mean she could bear Xia Zhicheng's little boy, especially this little boy who always appeared in front of her.Zhou Hanqing glanced in the direction of the second floor coldly, thinking about his elder brother's perfunctory treatment of her, and sneered in his heart.Wait, wait, wait, do we have to wait until Han Ling brings Xia Yuan into the room?She thought with a sullen face, if her eldest brother can't be relied on, she can only figure out a way by herself.

In the study on the second floor, Xia Zhicheng looked at Xia Yuan with a gentle attitude. "I haven't eaten yet. I'll let them make whatever I want."

Xia Yuan shook his head, "I'll leave after I finish speaking."

"What's so urgent?" Xia Zhicheng was puzzled.

Xia Yuan looked calm, "Mother's spirit is not very good recently, I want to find a doctor to help her, or send her to go abroad for recuperation."

Xia Zhicheng was stunned for ten seconds before realizing that the mother Xia Yuan was talking about was Han Ling.He knew that Xia Yuan had always had feelings for Han Ling, and he never wanted to call her mother.I just didn't expect that the first time Xia Yuan took the initiative to mention Han Ling in front of him, he actually said such a thing.It's not that he has never thought about sending Han Ling abroad for recuperation, but Han Ling has always refused to go abroad or leave Xia Yuan.As for asking domestic doctors to show it, that's even more impossible. Han Ling has always been against it, and he didn't dare to provoke Han Ling too much.

"Did she agree?" Xia Zhicheng thought of a question.

Xia Yuan lowered his eyes and did not speak.Xia Zhicheng immediately realized that this time, Xia Yuan actually wanted to force Han Ling to accept the inspection.His first reaction was that Xia Yuan and Han Ling had a dispute again, probably because of Xia Yuan's going abroad, and Han Ling made trouble with him a lot.

He rubbed his temples with a headache, and said in disapproval: "Han Ling just doesn't want you to go abroad, so she tossed a little harder. You also know that she was stimulated when she was young and was very sensitive to these things. If you can convince her to agree The examination is okay, she doesn't agree with you forcing her like this, what if it brings back her memory and aggravates the symptoms instead?"

Xia Yuan clenched his fists, looked at Xia Zhicheng expressionlessly, and said softly, "You know, you are pampering her."

A trace of dissatisfaction flashed across Xia Zhicheng's face, and his tone became more serious, "Xiao Yuan, she is your mother after all."

Xia Yuan's fists were clenched so tightly that his nails seemed to be piercing into the flesh.He said word by word: "Do you know what she did? She hired a girl with AIDS to seduce Xia Ze. Don't you think it doesn't matter? It's just that she is a little bit more troubled?"

"What did you say?" Xia Zhicheng turned around abruptly, as if he didn't believe what he heard, and looked at Xia Yuan in shock.

Xia Yuan looked sad, "That's what you heard, she hired a girl with AIDS to seduce Xia Ze, and I found out."

Xia Zhicheng's face turned ugly in an instant, Xia Yuan didn't look like he was lying to him.He thought of Han Ling's crazy expression, and felt that this was really something she could do.Xia Zhicheng's heart skipped a beat, Xia Ze cried and called his father when he was a child flashed across his mind, and Han Ling smiled at him when he was young, and the two figures clashed fiercely in his mind.

The study room fell silent for a while.Xia Yuan fixedly watched the expression change on Xia Zhicheng's face, and said shyly, "She has gone crazy, since Chi Xinyun passed away 15 years ago..."

"Don't mention 15 years ago." Xia Zhicheng interrupted Xia Yuan sharply.

What happened 15 years ago was his taboo, and only Han Ling dared to mention it in front of him unscrupulously.Xu Shi realized that his reaction was too violent, Xia Zhicheng softened his tone, and said as gently as possible: "Xiaoyuan, that matter is over. Didn't we agree not to mention it again? You have to learn to forget, don't think about it again." That matter. As for your mother's matter, I will talk to her and arrange for her to go abroad for recuperation as soon as possible. "

What Xia Yuan said was right, he couldn't continue pampering Han Ling any longer.Xia Ze is his son no matter what, Han Ling really shouldn't do anything to Xia Ze.In addition, there are too many things going on recently, and he doesn't have much energy to deal with Han Ling, so let's send her abroad for a while.

Xia Yuan didn't stay at Xia's house for too long, since Xia Zhicheng agreed to his proposal, what he has to do now is to stay by Han Ling's side to prevent Han Ling from going crazy.

Not long after Xia Yuan left, Xia Zhicheng packed up and was ready to go out.

Zhou Hanqing tidied Xia Zhicheng's clothes for the last time, and asked with concern, "Zhicheng, are you going to the hospital so early?"

Xia Zhicheng paused, answered vaguely, and then ordered: "You don't need to go to the hospital today, you've worked hard this week, so just stay at home with Xiao Kai today."

"Okay!" Zhou Hanqing nodded with a smile, accepting Xia Zhicheng's thoughtfulness.

Watching Xia Zhicheng go out, Zhou Hanqing immediately called Zhou Zhen.She suspected that Xia Zhicheng didn't go to any hospital at all, but Han Ling. She asked Zhou Zhen to accompany her to see Han Ling in person.

The husband and wife went out one after another, except for the servants in the entire Xia family, only Xia Kai was left.For Xia Kai, this was a rare opportunity, he turned around and immediately entered Xia Ze's room.He didn't believe that he couldn't find Xia Ze's courier, it must be somewhere at home.

Xia Ze soon found out about Xia Yuan's coming to find Xia Zhicheng.

Because he slept late last night, when he woke up, workaholic Chi Yiheng had already dragged another workaholic Li Mingxuan to the study.He was going to look for Shen Xi, but after asking, he found out that Shen Xi was still sleeping.

Xia Ze had nothing to do by himself, so after thinking about it, he found out the monitoring equipment he installed in Xia's study and began to fiddle with it.

The bug that Old K gave him is indeed the most advanced on the market. As long as Xia Ze's receiving device is turned on, all the conversations in Xia's study will be transcribed and stored in the receiving device.

Xia Ze listened to it whenever he had time, and he didn't know what he could hear from it.It's just that I stubbornly believe that if my father is the most undefended place, it must be the study.Apart from old A's investigation, if he wanted to find any clues about what happened that year, he could only find it here.

Xia Ze first found yesterday's recording, because Xia Zhicheng spent a lot of time in the hospital recently, yesterday's recording was not long, so he finished listening to it quickly.He was about to put down the earphones, when suddenly there was another voice, it was Xia Zhicheng and Xia Yuan talking.Xia Ze was stunned for a moment, and immediately cheered up.This is the first time he has recorded the conversation between Xia Yuan and Xia Zhicheng.He heard Xia Yuan and Xia Zhicheng talk about him, and heard Xia Yuan's protection of him, and he felt an indescribable feeling in his heart.

Xia Yuan...

Just when Xia Ze's thoughts drifted away, Xia Yuan's voice reached his ears, "She has gone crazy, since Chi Xinyun passed away 15 years ago..."

The words Chi Xinyun brought Xia Ze back to his senses. Before he could react to what Xia Yuan meant, Xia Zhicheng suddenly raised his voice, "Don't mention 15 years ago."

His voice was too sharp and too sudden, and it hit Xia Ze's ears unexpectedly, like countless tiny needles pierced in, making him extremely uncomfortable.

But Xia Ze didn't seem to feel the sting at all, his mind echoed Xia Zhicheng's words just now.

15 years ago was the time his mother died...
