just in time

— a week ago.

Yi Chenliang couldn't beat those two men, he was forcibly taken into the car, and he had no room to resist.

The car passed through the criss-crossing lanes of Wucheng in the night, and slowly stopped in front of a villa.

The villa is located among the neatly trimmed flowers and green trees. It should be luxurious and beautiful, but because of the overly thick night, it looks lonely and deserted. The pale light shines from the windows, illuminating The small stone-paved road in front of the door.

There are two dim lamps at the entrance of the front yard. Moths are struggling to catch the light under the bulbs, but they can never touch the real luminous core inside.

A slender woman stood by the lamppost. She was wearing a light blue cheongsam with intricate patterns embroidered on the hem. It was probably cool in the night. She was also wearing a beige knitted coat outside, which made her overly solemn A little more random.

She stood under the lamp, with tension and joy in her eyes, her hands were tightly clasped together, and her beautiful face became a little stiff due to excessive tension.

The car door was finally opened, a tall man in a suit got out of the car, and nodded slightly when he saw her, "Madam Su."

Chu Xia didn't give him half a look, and stared closely behind him, "Where's Liangliang?"

Finally, in her nervous anticipation, a boy who looked sixteen or seventeen got out of the car and stood in front of her.

The young man in front of him is slender, he is wearing the blue and white school uniform of Wucheng No. [-] Middle School, and he is carrying a black schoolbag on his shoulders. He has wheat-colored skin, sharp eyebrows and sharp eyes. With alienation and indifference.

Chu Xia seemed to see Su Shengwen when she was young, and she was convinced that this was the youngest son she had lost for 16 years.

"Liangliang..." As soon as Chu Xia opened her mouth, tears welled up. She raised her hand to wipe away the tears in a hurry, trying to show him a gentle smile, but her sadness was too much, so much that she couldn't even smile I can't stand it.

She has trapped herself in the past for 16 years.

Chu Xia has imagined the situation of losing and regaining countless times, maybe she will be ecstatic regardless of the image, maybe she will cry heartbreakingly, all she can think of is collapse and joy, but when it really comes to this time However, countless indescribable sorrows welled up in her heart.

She had waited too long for this moment.

"Liangliang, I'm mother." Chu Xia stepped forward, trying to hold his hand.

Yi Chenliang avoided her hand coldly, with a distant expression, "I don't have a mother."

He didn't mind if he avoided Chu Xia, she said hurriedly: "I am your biological mother, I gave birth to you, my mother has been looking for you for 16 years, and finally found you! Mom misses you every day— "

Before Yi Chenliang was ten years old, he often hid in the bed and cried secretly, shouting in a low voice, really missing this woman, and eagerly hoping that she would find him and come to save him.

The woman in front of him was as gentle and beautiful as he had imagined, possessing all the beautiful images of a mother.

But Yi Chenliang just felt strange.

"Liangliang, come in quickly." Chu Xia looked at him expectantly, "Come in and let mom take a good look at you."

"No need." Yi Chenliang only felt a little regretful, he looked at Chu Xia calmly, "I'm going home, there are still people at home waiting for me to go back."

Chu Xia was stunned for a moment, and forced a smile: "But...but I heard that your adoptive parents don't seem to be very kind to you, and their biological son is still sick—"

"I have severed ties with them long ago." Yi Chenliang interrupted her, "I have my own family."

"This is your home." Chu Xia looked at him blankly, "My parents and brother are here, we are your family."

"You are not." Yi Chenliang denied her words, "I'm going back."

He turned around and left, but was blocked by the people behind him.

"Young master, Mr. Su has ordered you not to go anywhere during this time." The man said in a stiff tone.

Anger flashed in Yi Chenliang's eyes, "I have nothing to do with them, so why interfere with my freedom?"

"Liangliang, Liangliang." Chu Xia reached out and grabbed his arm, explaining to him with red eyes: "Mom and Dad don't have any malicious intentions, but they are just afraid that it is not safe for you to live outside by yourself, and you are not full yet. For the convenience of taking care of you, I moved your household registration back, and your parents will be your guardians in the future, so you don’t have to be alone anymore.”

Yi Chenliang looked at her in astonishment after listening, as if he had heard something incredible, "Why do you do this?"

"We are your parents!" Chu Xia looked at him pleadingly, "We should protect you!"

A wave of anger rose from his heart, Yi Chenliang threw her away, and said angrily: "You didn't even tell me to ask for my opinion in advance! What are you doing?"

Chu Xia said sadly: "Liangliang, don't be like this... Your father has a special status, many people are staring at him, we plan to explain to you slowly later—"

"Excuse me!" Yi Chenliang laughed back angrily, "I've seen it, no wonder he disgusts you so much!"

Yun Fang seldom mentioned the matter of his biological parents to him, the only time was when Su Shengwen and Zhou Ang appeared at the gate of the community that day, and Su Shengwen didn't even show his face - but even so, Yun Fang was so abnormal that he couldn't control it. Hold your emotions.

Chu Xia looked at him with a pale face, heartbroken, "Liangliang, how can you say that about Mom and Dad?"

Yi Chenliang turned to leave, but those two people stood in front of him like a mountain——

"...I went to ask Xiao Yi to have dinner that day, but no matter how hard I knocked, the door wouldn't open, so I asked someone for the landlord's phone number, but the landlord said that he had withdrawn the lease." Tang Yi's voice came from the other end of the phone, " No matter what you think about it, your dad and I don’t feel at ease. You rang and turned off the phone, and you couldn’t find anyone after two days of searching. You can’t file a case if you report it to the police station. I thought that Xiao Yi had to go to school, but when he arrived at school, your teacher He said that he had transferred, it seems that his family came to do it for him..."

Yun Fang gripped the phone tightly.

"But I remember that you and Xiao Yi both said that he is an orphan and has severed ties with his adoptive parents. Why did he run away from his family again?" Tang Yi was also very anxious, "We searched for a week and still haven't found anything. Where did you find the person, Tangtang, don't panic, let's look slowly."

"Yeah, I know." Yun Fang hung up the phone, and then called Huang Chu again, Huang Chu just received the call and said "Ouch, ancestor, you finally turned on the phone!"

"Yi Chenliang—" Yun Fang was interrupted by Huang Chu just after speaking.

"This matter is so fucking insignificant!" Huang Chu was very angry, "I just received the notice the day before yesterday, and it turned out to be the notice of the conclusion of the second trial of Xiaoyi's previous lawsuit! Without Xiaoyi and I knowing , Song Lili and Yi Zhizhi filed a second trial, and the court gave Xiaoyi's lawyer a voluntary assistance... When I receive the news, the fucking case is over!"

"What's the result?" Yun Fang asked.

"Song Lili and Yi Zhiming won the lawsuit, so it's fucking outrageous! Are they all blind?" Huang Chu was still very angry when he said it, "But what's even more outrageous is that I asked my classmate in the court to help find out, Song Lili On the day He Yi Mingzhi won the lawsuit, he went to go through the retirement procedures, and then someone followed up with the adoption. The formalities, the household registration certificate, and even Xiaoyi's informed consent were all available. I have been looking for Xiaoyi for the past two days and nothing happened. When I found someone, I asked my friends at the police station to help with the investigation, and Xiao Yi's household registration was moved out of Wucheng that night—"

"Is it illegal for them to do this?" Yun Fang's voice cooled down.

"The fucking inch is here!" Huang Chu scolded: "There is a legal boss behind this family to point out, such a combination of punches is completely reasonable and legal, and there is no fault at all, but this matter There's something fucking wrong! Xiao Yi is obviously completely forced..."

"I see." Yun Fang said to Huang Chu.

"Now the main thing is to find Xiao Yi first. I'm always worried that he will be a trap." Huang Chu was very worried. "Do you know where he is now? I went to your school to ask, but they said that Xiao Yi has transferred."

"I know." Yun Fang's voice was deep.

He knew who did it.

Strong and arrogant, straightforward, unrestrained, and won't let people find the slightest fault.

Yun Fang stood in the empty room with a splitting headache.

'Still young...hope you won't regret the decision you made today. ' Su Shengwen's determined voice sounded in his mind again.

——In the cold and narrow interrogation room, he hadn't closed his eyes for several days, and the policeman on the opposite side kept repeating the previous questions.

"Qi Huo is dead, no one can prove that what you said is true!"

"You and Qi Huo have always been in a single-line relationship!"

"...Ge San is dead! He and Qi Huo died in that explosion. There were so many people at the scene, and you were the only one who escaped. What happened that day!"

"Qihuo's superiors have entered! We don't care what they promised you before, you just need to explain everything clearly!"

"I'll ask you one last time, why on earth did you do this? What's your purpose!"

He sat in front of the table, his brain seemed to be rusted, he spoke numbly, and his hoarse voice didn't sound like his own, "I just want to come back."

He just wanted to find a place to live quietly for another few years, and then die quietly.

"Stop making excuses! How many things have you done with Ge San?"

"Clearly explain everything you know without falling into the ground! Strive for leniency!"

"The people who died innocently because of you are watching you!"

"..."

In the end, he couldn't remember how long he hadn't slept, and he couldn't even remember what he was talking about. He just wanted to close his eyes, even if he just died like this.

I don't know how many days later, just when he thought he couldn't hold on anymore, someone shouted at him: "Yi Chenliang, someone is released on bail!"

He regained his freedom for a while, and while seeing the sun, he also saw Zhou Ang in a suit and leather shoes.

Zhou Ang was polite and polite, and smiled at him: "Mr. Yi Chenliang, I think you only have one choice now."

He described himself as standing in the sun awkwardly, looking at the car window behind Zhou Ang with a gloomy gaze.

That window never fell down—

Whether it was 20 years ago or 20 years later, Su Shengwen could always defeat him easily.
