Rebirth of Xia Ze

When Zhou Zhen left Xia's house, he had the white USB flash drive Xia Zhicheng gave him in his pocket.He glanced at Zhou Hanqing vaguely, and left with a smile on his face.

On the way home, Zhou Zhen kept thinking about what Xia Zhicheng said to him in the study.When Xia Zhicheng said that he had something to trouble him, he never expected that Xia Zhicheng would let him watch this video. He was so familiar with this video that he could even memorize the dialogue in it.

For a moment, Zhou Zhen almost thought that Xia Zhicheng was talking ironically, and that the person who took the camera from Zhou Hanqing's house was Xia Zhicheng.But when he looked at Xia Zhicheng's expression, he couldn't see any clues on the other's face.Xu Shi noticed his gaze, and Xia Zhicheng looked over gently.When the eyes of the two met, Zhou Zhen's heart trembled slightly, and he quickly restrained the expression on his face that he shouldn't have, and made a coordinated look of surprise.

"This is..." He heard his own voice asking.

Xia Zhicheng didn't explain in detail, but just handed him the video and asked him to find someone to release it.

Thinking of this, Zhou Zhen frowned irritably.He didn't know how Xia Zhicheng got this video?Zhou Hanqing found that the camera was lost on his front foot, and Xia Zhicheng took out this video on his back foot.Whether Xia Zhicheng took it himself, or Xia Kai took it and handed it to the Chi family, it was not any pleasant news for him.What's more troublesome is that Xia Zhicheng meant to push the Zhou family out as a tester to fight Chen Hui first, but he couldn't refuse.The reason why he kept procrastinating and refusing to give the video to Xia Zhicheng was not only to maximize his benefits, but also because he wanted to take Xia Zhicheng's favor and escape from this matter.Look at the Chi family, who have been based in Haicheng for many years under the banner of neutrality. Although the Zhou family is tied to Xia Zhicheng, the Chi family's approach is the safest in the long run.But now, Zhou Zhen felt the shape of the USB flash drive in his pocket, and he could only hope that Xia Zhicheng would not miss this time.

After Zhou Zhen left, Xia's study became quiet.Xia Ze put down his earphones and was about to make a call to Chi Yiheng when there was a faint movement in the front yard.Xia Ze's first thought was that Chi Yiheng was back, and immediately rushed downstairs.

"cousin!"

Xia Ze's smile froze for a moment when he saw the person standing at the door clearly, and then his smile grew bigger. "uncle."

The person who appeared at the door was Chi Shouzheng, not Chi Yiheng as Xia Ze thought.

Chi Shouzheng was obviously very happy to see Xia Ze, especially looking at Xia Ze's appearance, he seemed to get along well with Chi Yiheng, and Chi Shouzheng was even more comforted in his heart, feeling that he was finally worthy of his dead sister, and did not let Xia Ze alienate the Chi family .

"Uncle, why did you come back so early?" Xia Ze was very surprised. Yesterday, my cousin said that uncle would not return to Haicheng for another two or three days.

Chi Shouzheng smiled. He didn't intend to rush back to Haicheng in such a hurry, and the old man of the Ye family also thought that he could stay in Zhongjing for a few more days.But yesterday Chi Yiheng called to mention Xia Ze's injury, Chi Shouzheng couldn't stay any longer, and wished he could come back overnight.It was the old man of the Ye family who persuaded Ye Hang to be unsafe, and arranged for someone to bring him back early in the morning.Of course, there is no need to mention these things with Xia Ze. Chi Shouzheng brought up the matter of coming back in one sentence, focusing on Xia Ze, "How is your injury, Ozawa? Let uncle take a look."

Xia Ze agreed and was about to step forward, when he suddenly thought of the hickey marks on his body, his expression froze, and he hesitated and said: "Actually, I'm fine, my cousin just helped me apply the medicine this morning."

Chi Shouzheng was not at ease, but felt at ease when he saw it with his own eyes.Xia Ze tugged at his clothes in embarrassment, and refused to go forward.Chi Shouzheng saw that Xia Ze seemed reluctant to dawdle, although he was a little disappointed that Xia Ze was still not close to him, but he felt sorry for Xia Ze's gaining the upper hand, so he didn't insist anymore.

Xia Ze breathed a sigh of relief, and felt that his actions just now might have hurt his uncle's heart, so he bent his eyes and leaned beside Chi Shouzheng in a fawning manner.Chi Shou just looked at him with a smile, and through Xia Ze's eyes that were exactly the same as Chi Xinyun's, it was as if he saw the young Chi Xinyun.Chi Xinyun was like this when he was a child. When he did something wrong, he held a smiling face and followed him obsequiously, like a little tail.

Just as Chi Shou was thinking about this, he couldn't bear to blame Xia Ze any more, and listened to Xia Ze rambling about this period of time with a smile on his face.My cousin assigns too much homework, my cousin is too strict with him, my cousin won't let him play games, my cousin... In a word, he has been very obedient recently, so uncle doesn't have to worry anymore.

Chi Shouzheng looked at him lovingly, he had no demands on Xia Ze's future, maybe Chi Xinyun passed away too early, Chi Shouzheng just wanted to watch Xia Ze grow up happily.Whether Xia Ze is promising or not, in his eyes, he is his beloved nephew, there is no difference.

When Chi Yiheng got home at noon, he didn't know that his father had returned.Chi Shouzheng came back too suddenly, and Xia Ze stayed with Chi Shouzheng all the time, thinking that someone had notified Chi Yiheng, so he forgot to tell Chi Yiheng.

"Xiao Ze." Chi Yiheng called out habitually after entering the door.Usually, every time he comes back, Xia Ze will come out when he hears something, and he has formed the habit of looking for Xia Ze as soon as he comes back.

At that time, Xia Ze was sitting and chatting with Chi Shouzheng in the living room, and when he heard Chi Yiheng's voice, he glanced at Chi Shouzheng with a guilty conscience, and greeted him politely, "Cousin."

Chi Yiheng didn't see Chi Shouzheng, and reached out to rub Xia Ze's hair affectionately, with the corners of his mouth turned up, "What did you do this morning?"

Xia Ze blinked, and immediately realized that Chi Yiheng didn't know that his uncle had returned.In order to prevent Chi Yiheng from saying something he should not say, he said decisively: "Uncle is back."

Chi Yiheng: "..."

In the center of the living room, Chi Shouzheng looked over with a smile.The better the relationship between Chi Yiheng and Xia Ze, the happier he looked, and he didn't think of anything else for a moment.

Chi Yiheng quickly adjusted his emotions, and said with a smile, "Father."

Chi Yiheng came back at noon to have lunch with Xia Ze specially. Now that there is a father, the three of them sat together, and the atmosphere was very happy.Of course, it would be better if he and Neng Xia Ze were closer.

Chi Yiheng took a piece of fish, carefully picked out the thorns inside, and placed it in front of Xia Ze.

A polite smile appeared on Xia Ze's face, and he whispered, "Thank you, cousin."

Although Chi Yiheng knew that Xia Ze did this on purpose, but looking at the polite expression on Xia Ze's face, he still felt that it was an eyesore.If you confess now... Chi Yiheng paused, and gave up the thought in his mind.

Sooner or later, he and Xia Ze have to confess, but no matter what, he has to wait for Xia Ze to finish his college entrance examination.He didn't know how his father would react at that time. It would be bad if his emotions were too intense and affected Xia Ze's emotions, which in turn affected the college entrance examination.

Adhering to this idea, Chi Yiheng and Xia Ze behaved well in the following time.It's just that the two of them are used to intimacy, and suddenly they want to keep a distance. Neither Xia Ze nor Chi Yiheng are used to it, and the behavior between the two of them is even more deliberate.

Chi Shouzheng soon realized something was wrong, he keenly noticed that there seemed to be an indescribable aura between Xia Ze and Chi Yiheng.To say that the relationship between the two is good, but they seem to be mediocre.But to say that the relationship between the two is not good, Chi Shouzheng thinks about Chi Yiheng's attitude towards Xia Ze when he just arrived home, and Xia Ze's tone when he mentioned Chi Yiheng, he always feels that something is wrong.

Could it be that two people quarreled?

Chi Shouzheng had doubts in his heart, so he focused more on the two of them.Fortunately, after the initial discomfort, both Xia Ze and Chi Yiheng quickly adjusted.After the meal, the relationship between the two became more polite and natural.But Chi Shouzheng had a preconceived impression, and he still vaguely felt that something was negligent.

Not long after eating, Xia Ze found an excuse to slip back and do the questions.This is the first time he has actively shown his desire to learn.Chi Yiheng's expression was restrained, but his eyes betrayed him, watching Xia Ze trot upstairs with a smile.

Chi Shou was smiling at Xia Ze's back, and was about to turn his head to say something to Chi Yiheng, when he saw Chi Yiheng's eyes clearly, and his heart trembled.Chi Yiheng's eyes are too gentle. In his impression, Chi Yiheng has never had a girlfriend, let alone look at another person with such eyes.

Chi Shouzheng suspected that he had misread it, and the next moment Chi Yiheng came back to his senses, and met Chi Shouzheng's penetrating gaze, Chi Yiheng's heart beat faster, but his face remained calm.Chi Shouzheng took a deep look at him, and looked away suspiciously.

The first confrontation between father and son ended with Chi Yiheng's victory.

Because Chi Shouzheng came back, Chi Yiheng could not spend the afternoon with Xia Ze as before, but reported to his father what happened during this time in the study.At the end, Chi Yiheng hesitated for a moment, and looked in his father's direction hesitantly.

There is one thing he and Xia Ze have been hiding from his father, not his relationship with Xia Ze, but the investigation of the cause of his aunt's death.When first investigating Han Ling, Xia Ze didn't want to disturb the Chi family.They didn't know Han Ling's identity at the time, Xia Ze didn't want to involve the Chi family, so Chi Yiheng followed Xia Ze's wishes.However, with the exposure of Han Ling's true identity, the deaths of Xia Zhicheng and his aunt were further involved.When Chi Yiheng was going to tell his father all this, Chi's father went to Zhongjing again, and these matters have been dragged on.

"What's wrong? Is there something else?" Chi Shouzheng asked in confusion.

Chi Yiheng nodded, "There is something about my aunt's death. I suspect that my aunt's death was not an accident, but was killed."

Responding to Chi Yiheng's words was Chi Shouzheng's long silence.He sat there quietly, and after a while he slowly opened his mouth and said, "Does Xiao Ze know?"

Chi Yiheng was stunned for a moment, vaguely guessing what his father meant, and immediately said: "Xiao Ze knew that he had found a private detective, and this was the first thing Xiao Ze suspected."

Hearing that Xia Ze was the first to suspect, Chi Shouzheng sighed silently.As soon as the matter of the Xia family's will came out, he had already begun to doubt it.Chi Yiheng was too young, so he didn't have a deep impression of Mr. Xia. He had met Mr. Xia countless times with his father back then, and he was very clear about Mr. Xia's behavior.

The Xia family is not an upstart, and the distribution of the inheritance does not depend on the owner's preferences, especially those things that Mr. Xia left to Xia Ze are the foundation of the Xia family's foothold in Haicheng, and the root that the Xia family has passed down from generation to generation.According to the tradition of the Xia family, it must be passed on to the eldest son and grandson.However, it should be divided equally between the Xia family brothers, and Xia Ze is definitely not qualified to inherit.However, Mr. Xia left those things to Xia Ze.If it was because of Xin Yun's death that Mr. Xia felt guilty towards the Xia family, it would be enough to leave the calligraphy and paintings of the Chi family to Xia Ze.Originally, they all thought that Xinyun's death was accidental, and the Xia family couldn't be blamed for this incident.But the fact is that Mr. Xia left everything to Xia Ze, even surpassing Xia Zhicheng and his generation.Chi Shouzheng thought and thought, but he could only think that Mr. Xia had a disturbed conscience and felt that he owed Xia Ze.Apart from Xinyun's death, he couldn't think of anything else.

Chi Shouzheng has been tossed and turned for several days because of this incident. Xinyun is his sister, Xia Ze is his nephew, and they are his inseparable relatives.Although he wanted to find out what happened back then to seek justice for his sister, he was also worried that this matter would irritate Xia Ze.After all, the Xia family is Xia Ze's home, what if Xia Ze can't accept this matter?Xia Zecai, can he bear that overnight, his father, grandfather, and relatives of the Xia family may be the murderers who killed his mother?What happened to Shen Jiashi had already irritated Xia Ze a lot, and with this incident, Chi Shouzheng was worried that Xia Ze would not be able to bear it.

Xinyun has passed away for many years, and Xia Ze is her only child. Chi Shou is struggling to find out the truth of Chi Xinyun's death and worrying about Xia Ze's irritation. past.He thought it would be the regret of his life, but he didn't expect Xia Ze to bring it up first.

When Chi Shou thought of this, he felt sorry for Xia Ze even more, and he didn't know how much pressure Xia Ze had to bear by himself during this time.

"When did Ozawa find out, and how much did he find out?"

Chi Yiheng didn't hide anything, and explained it in detail from beginning to end.From Han Ling's existence to Xia Yuan's identity, to Xia Zhicheng's reaction in it.

Chi Shouzheng fell silent again, and he waved his hand to signal Chi Yiheng, "Yiheng, go and see Ozawa, I'll meet alone."

Chi Yiheng glanced at his father worriedly, "Father?"

Chi Shouzheng waved his hands and said, "I'm fine."

He had already vaguely prepared himself for this, and now he is not so much angry because of Xia Zhicheng's matter as he is feeling sorry for Xin Yun and Xia Ze.Chi Shouzheng looked at the family portrait on the table, and Chi Xinyun smiled sweetly at him through the frame.He thought of his younger sister who died young and his father who died in depression. The relationship between the Chi family and the Xia family had disappeared.
