When Song Shuman woke up early the next morning, she was covered with a blanket. She called out to Ji Yangqing a few times, but no one answered her, and she was left alone at home.

Today is Monday, class in the afternoon, not in a hurry to go to school, Song Shuman sat on the sofa in a daze, sat all morning, until her stomach protested, she got up and wanted to go to the kitchen to find something to eat, when she stood up For a moment, I felt the world was spinning, I couldn't stand still, and I fell on the sofa again.

After the hypoglycemia slowed down, Song Shuman stood up and walked to the kitchen, leaning on the wall, and made a glass of honey syrup to drink.Before I finished drinking a whole glass, I heard someone knocking on the door, knocking hurriedly and non-stop.

"Song Shuman! Song Shuman!"

Song Shuman felt flustered inexplicably, she put down the cup in her hand and opened the door, as soon as the door opened, she saw Xu Qingmei standing at the door, panting, the hair on her forehead was wet with sweat, sticking to her forehead indiscriminately.

"Qingmei? Why are you in such a hurry?"

Xu Qingmei propped her hands on the wall, "Something happened! Your house! Something happened!"

"Speak slowly, what happened? Ji Yangqing?"

Xu Qingmei quickly waved her hand, "No, it's not Ji Yangqing, it's Uncle Song. Uncle Song was arrested, and the Song Mansion was also surrounded. I passed by the Song Mansion when I brought Mr. Jiang's meal back, and I found out after asking around. I want to see if you are still at home, it seems that you don't know about it at all."

Song Shuman was startled suddenly, flustered, and shook Xu Qingmei's hand with trembling hands, "How could my father be arrested? Did they arrest the wrong person?"

"How can you be arrested all of a sudden? Do you know why my father was arrested?"

"Where's my brother? Where's Song Chengliang?"

Xu Qingmei shook her head, "If I knew the reason, I wouldn't be here. The Song Mansion was surrounded and I couldn't go in to see it, but I heard that they only arrested Uncle. Cheng Liang should be safe and sound now."

"Shuman, where's Ji Yangqing? He should know something, right?"

"Oh yes, Ji Yangqing! He's not at home, where should I go to find him?"

"Qingmei, my father is so old, and he still suffers from such a bunch of diseases, do you think he will be fine?"

"No, no, don't panic, maybe Ji Yangqing and Liao Shenyan can help. Did you have class today?"

"Afternoon class."

"I'll ask for a leave of absence for you, and then go back to find Mr. Jiang to see if he has any connections. You just wait at home for Ji Yangqing to come back, and don't wander around, do you hear me?"

Xu Qingmei went to help Song Shuman take a leave of absence for the afternoon class, but Song Shuman went downstairs anyway, standing alone at the intersection, not knowing where to go for a long time, she realized that she didn't know Liao Shenyan too well She didn't know where Liao Shenyan would go or where he might go at this time, even Song Shuman didn't know where he usually liked to go.

Song Shuman hid in the crowd and glanced at the sealed Song family from a distance. The villa was surrounded by passers-by like sinners.Afraid of being recognized, she lowered the brim of her hat again, bypassing the Song family and returning home.

She sat at home and waited, waiting for Ji Yangqing to come back, thinking of her father and younger brother in her heart, but the sentence Zhou Ru asked, "What are you living for in this life?"

Song Shuman thought about it for a long time, family?spouse?friend?cause?or yourself?

She doesn't know what she is living for, she only knows that she is alive, living quietly, without much achievement, without any goal, just like this, living step by step towards death.

Until the sun was setting, Song Shuman heard the sound of the key opening the door, and immediately got up and ran to the door.As soon as Ji Yangqing opened the door, Song Shuman asked him anxiously: "Where have you been? Do you know about my father?"

Ji Yangqing was silent and did not speak. He rarely did not respond to Song Shuman, and he deliberately avoided Song Shuman's gaze.Song Shuman looked at Ji Yangqing, held his arm, suppressed the tears from the corners of her eyes, and her crying voice could not stop trembling, "Ji Yangqing, what are you hiding from me? Can you tell me?"

"Shuman, I didn't mean to hide it from you. When my father-in-law asked us to come back, he was really sick. The Song family's business has been deliberately targeted this year. Now, someone has completely eaten up the Song family."

Song Shuman miscalculated a bit, the letter she received from home in Shanghai was actually true, her father's illness did relapse at that time, but his father refrained from telling Song Shuman.

"Father-in-law asked me to take care of it. I've been busy for the past few days. I just wanted to find out who wanted to kill the Song family. Do you know who's on the other side? Liao Shenyan. I can't keep the Song family's business."

Song Shuman's pupils trembled when he heard this name, "Liao Shenyan?!"

"How could it be him? How could it be Liao Shenyan? My father watched me and Liao Shenyan grow up together. Even after Liao Shenyan took over the family business, our family took care of Liao Shenyan. How could he..."

"You all underestimate Liao Shenyan's ambition. He was the one who plotted against your father and sent him to prison with his own hands."

Song Shuman pulled Ji Yangqing's sleeve and begged him bitterly, "Yangqing, Yangqing, can you save my father?"

"Shuman, it's not that I don't want to help you, it's that I don't have the ability. I just came back from Shanghai, and Jiang Ning's power has changed. I can't climb up in such a short time."

Ji Yangqing had done her best, Song Shuman didn't blame him, she just begged him a little at last, "Then can you take me to see my father? Just one time."

"let me try."

That night, Ji Yangqing made several phone calls, and some of them hung up as soon as they answered it. That was the first time Song Shuman looked at Ji Yangqing and nodded, bowed and begged others with a smile on his face. Then he put down the phone and nodded to Song Shuman, " let's go."

The friend Ji Yangqing contacted was a small police officer in the prison. When Ji Yangqing went in, he stuffed some gold nuggets for him. The police officer smiled happily and said to Song Shuman, "Go and come back quickly, don't look at it for too long."

Song Shuman patted the iron railing, "Father, Father!"

The father huddled in the corner, the prison uniform was thin, he heard the voice and came over immediately, "Shuman, why are you here?"

"Father, how are you? Is there any discomfort in your body?"

"Shuman, father is sorry for you, I will not be here in the future, take care of my brother more."

Song Shuman couldn't hold back her tears, warm liquid flowed down her cheeks, "Father, don't say such things, you will be fine, Yang Qing and I will do everything possible to rescue you, you believe me , you trust me."

Father Song put his hand through the gap between the railings, and he patted Song Shuman's head, "Don't save me, just save me, my illness won't last long, I'm dead anyway, but it's dead It's just a different place."

Song Shuman cried so hard that she couldn't breathe and shook her head.

The police officer outside shouted: "It's time, hurry up!"

"Let's go, let's go, don't come again."

Song Shuman was dragged out by Ji Yangqing, and before leaving, Ji Yangqing stuffed some money into the little police officer, "The old man is old and not in good health, please take care of him."

The police officer stuffed the money into his trouser belt and nodded, "Don't worry."

Song Shuman cried so hard that she wanted to cry out all her moisture, and she could only stop when she was dry.She stood outside the prison, motionless, Ji Yangqing took her shoulders and let her rest her head on him.

"Let's go, let's pick up my brother and go home. I've already said hello to them. This matter has nothing to do with children. They won't embarrass my brother."

Ji Yangqing supported Song Shuman, and Song Shuman took a step and looked back. After sitting in the co-pilot seat, Song Shuman asked him: "Ji Yangqing, since you can't save my father this time, then tell me, I will save my father now." Who should I ask? Who is the most useful to ask?"

Ji Yangqing was silent for a while, and then said a name Song Shuman was all too familiar with: "Liao Shenyan."

After picking up his younger brother, Song Chengliang became more obedient, allowing his sister to wipe her dirty face with a wet towel.

Song Chengliang asked in his immature voice: "Sister, when will Daddy come back?"

You can't cry in front of your younger brother, Song Shuman smiled and said to Song Chengliang: "Cheng Liang is good, as long as Cheng Liang is good, his father will come back."

Song Chengliang nodded, his little face was flushed, and his expression was serious, "Cheng Liang must be obedient."

After coaxing Song Chengliang to sleep, Song Shuman stood outside the door. She looked at Ji Yangqing and asked in a low voice, "Ji Yangqing, can I ask you one last question?"

"what?"

"What are you living for in your life?"

Ji Yangqing leaned against the wall and looked at the ceiling, "There are too many, for fame and fortune, for preventing the woman who killed my mother from succeeding, and for the heroine in my life script."

When talking about the heroine, Ji Yangqing lowered her head and looked at Song Shuman, "If she hadn't met me, she would be even more at a loss than she is now, so that she doesn't despair, so that she can rely on her at this time, even a little That’s okay. So I’m alive, I’ve lived to the present and the future.”

Early the next morning, Song Shuman appeared at the door of the Liao Mansion, knocked on the door knocker, but no one paid any attention, and knocked again.

While knocking on the door knocker, Song Shuman shouted Liao Shenyan's name until Liao Shenyan opened the door.Liao Shenyan looked at her, "You are really stubborn, Song Shuman."

Song Shuman knelt on the ground without saying a word, "When we were young, we fought together. When you ate at our house, my father only served you food. I even felt jealous about it. Since I was a child, I have regarded you as my brother generally."

"Liao Shenyan, I beg you, I beg you, I can give you everything in the Song family, spare my father's life."

"You hold your hand high, and I will be your cow and horse in this life and the next life."

"Miss Song, please go back, I can't help with this, I can't lift this hand."

Song Shuman shouted: "Lin Dailan! Lin Dailan!"

"What's the use of calling her? You think I'll make such a low-level mistake? She's probably having a good time in Europe right now."

The fine sunny day suddenly rained, and the rain fell so heavily that it formed a curtain and washed Song Shuman.

"If you want to kneel, keep kneeling. You'd better let the rain wash your eyes and look at me. See me clearly. I, Liao Shenyan, am no longer the same Liao Shenyan."

Song Shuman knelt in the rain, even though Liao Shenyan had already entered the house, what she had done was futile, but she was still fantasizing, thinking that Liao Shenyan could still take into account the past love, at least a little bit.

She cried and called Liao Shenyan, begging him to let her father go, but unfortunately, that day, until Song Shuman fell in the rain, Liao Shenyan never came out again.

"Liao Shenyan, you will definitely pay the price for your evil deeds in this life."
