"Shen Yichi..."

Chu Xian sat hugging his knees against the wall. The small black room could deprive him of all senses, and even the passage of time was difficult to clearly feel. When he was a child, he often huddled in this room and fell into a coma. In the end, he often woke up in the hospital Later, even Chu Xian himself forgot whether he was punished by Chu Xinglin because he was afraid of being confined, or whether it was Chu Xinglin's punishment that made him afraid of the closed and dark space.

It would be great if Shen Yichi was here.

Chu Xian thought sullenly, he kept his eyes closed all the time, Chen Rushuang used to sneak into the small dark room to accompany him because of his distress, but in the dark room, he could not feel the difference between one person and two people. Chu Xian's fear continued unabated, and on the contrary, Chen Rushuang would be reprimanded by Chu Xinglin.

But if it was Shen Yichi, he might not be afraid anymore.

Even if he couldn't see the outline clearly, it was enough to simply feel the temperature on his body and the breath of rain flowing in the air.

Cold sweat broke out one after another. When he was in confinement, Chu Xinglin was not allowed to send food. He only asked people to prepare bottled pure water in the room in advance. But Chu Xian usually would not drink it even if he was not thirsty. The environment will only make him feel weak and unable to move, and he has no extra strength to search for where the water is in the dark.

The punishment time this time was deliberately extended because of Chen Rushuang's dissuasion. After being locked up for more than six hours, even Chu Xian couldn't hold on anymore. He could only sleep wearily against the wall, his hands tightly A jade tablet the size of a thumb is a peace amulet given to him by Shen Yichi before.

His one is engraved with the words "Academic Success", while Shen Yichi's is written "Heaven rewards hard work". Shen Yichi said that it was a talisman that his mother asked for in the Confucius Temple when he was on a business trip. I put it in my pocket casually, but I didn't expect it to come in handy now.There were still a few wisps of Shen Yichi's pheromone left on the jade tablet, and it was because of this faint smell of rain that Chu Xian rarely fell into a light sleep without nightmares.

Before, he rejected Shen Yichi on the grounds that it was "too early", because before that, Chu Xian's life plan had never involved the part of "love", but Chen Rushuang's words a few days ago awakened him, and even himself He also began to realize that he was completely trapped by Shen Yichi...

This person is obedient to him on the surface, but never conceals those domineering thoughts that want to take Chu Xian as his own. It seems that he was put on a collar by the so-called point system, but in fact he was led by the nose. It has always been Chu Xian.

Chu Xian's breathing became more and more steady. He seemed to be isolated on an isolated island, and he didn't know what earth-shaking changes had taken place in his family during the twelve hours he was locked in the small black room.

So much so that when he was woken up by the sound of the door opening and found that he didn't have a nightmare, he still jumped a little cautiously. The jade card with red marks on his palm was put back into his pocket. Chu Xian silently decided to go there after the summer vacation was over. Tell Shen Yichi what he wants.

"Master, dinner is ready for you, please go and eat first."

It was not Chen Rushuang and Chu Yi who were waiting for Chu Xian outside the small black room, but Chu Xinglin's life secretary. Chu Xian frowned instinctively, looked at the empty living room,

"what time is it now?"

"09:30 p.m."

"Just you and me at home?"

"Yes, Mr. Chu specially left me at home to take care of you, and asked me to release you on time. We will leave immediately after you have eaten dinner."

"Where to go?"

Chu Xian glanced at the neatly arranged steaks and miso soup on the dining table. They were all western food that didn't suit his taste, and it should be a meal ordered by the secretary on the spur of the moment.

"funeral parlor."

After the secretary was silent for a moment, he told Chu Xian the cruel truth in three words without hesitation.

"……What did you say?"

Chu Xian felt a buzzing in his head for a moment. He thought it was because he just came out of the small dark room and was not used to it, so he rubbed his temples and asked again.

"I have to take you to the funeral home."

The secretary repeated it without any emotion. He is an elite assistant trained by Chu Xinglin, and his style of conduct reveals Chu Xinglin's shadow everywhere. Like Chu Xinglin, he doesn't care too much for his wife and children. Be considerate of feelings.

"who is it?"

There was a bit of luck written on Chu Xian's face, and the secretary sighed silently. Others said that Chu Xian was a natural leader, but after all, he was just a child who was in a panic when things happened.

"Your sister, Miss Chu Yi."

While answering, the secretary was thinking distressedly how to comfort the young master. He had only seen his wife's fuss not long ago. If Chu Xian was as difficult to coax as Chen Rushuang, he would suffer a lot.

Hearing the sound, Chu Xian closed his eyes, and seemed to be unsteady for a moment, but when he opened his eyes again, there was only a calm clarity in his eyes, and he picked a butter bun from the table and swallowed it quickly. into stomachs that ache from hunger,

"Is the clothes ready? I want to know what happened on this day before I go to the funeral home."

"Then please get in the car, I have prepared clothes for you."

As the secretary said, he put on a dark black formal coat for Chu Xian. This was the clothes that Chen Rushuang and Chu Yi chose together for him. It was originally prepared for his upcoming coming-of-age ceremony. Make him feel like a weight.

"The accident happened around [-]:[-] this afternoon. At that time, Miss Chu Yi was playing in the Linjiang mansion complex on the south side of Square Road. Unfortunately, she was hit by a woman who committed suicide by falling from a building and died on the spot."

"Why did she go to a strange neighborhood?"

"Miss' friend lives there,"

The secretary flipped the tablet in his hand and told Chu Xian the whole story. Chu Xian's calmness was beyond his expectation, and he couldn't help but look at him with admiration.

"The person who fell from the building was a resident of the community. The police have confirmed that it was a suicide. It was indeed an accident to hit Miss Zhong... After receiving the news, Mr. Chu and his wife rushed to the funeral home directly. Now we are waiting for you to see Miss Zhong for the last time."

"My mother...how is it?"

"Madam is overly sad. If the situation is not good, I will pick you up and take you to the hospital later. Do you have any questions?"

The secretary did not hear from Chu Xian again. During the half-hour drive, Chu Xian was quiet most of the time, and even the air pressure in the car became low and cold. The secretary couldn't help shivering. Overwhelmed by the aura of an Omega.

The secretary finally took a breath after getting off the car. He adjusted his breathing before continuing to lead Chu Xian.

"President Chu and his wife are here, young master...Young master? What's wrong?"

The secretary looked curiously at Chu Xian who was staring at a certain direction behind him in a daze, Chu Xian slowly turned his head,

"Nothing. I think someone is watching me over there."

"There's no one there, it's your illusion."

The secretary smiled, but kept muttering in his heart, saying in the funeral parlor that he felt that being stared at was somewhat... penetrating.

"maybe."

Chu Xian tugged on his coat. After stepping into the funeral parlor, even the summer night wind became cold. He was led by the secretary into the mourning hall where Chu Yi's body was placed. The wind in his ears was suddenly heard by Chen Rushuang's crying. replace.

"Liuzhi... You are here, please tell mom that this is not true, that is not my Yiyi, my Yiyi is most afraid of pain, if it is Yiyi, she should have rushed into my arms with so much blood crying, right?"

"mom……"

Chu Xian wanted to go forward to pull Chen Rushuang away from the coffin, but was stopped by Chu Xinglin pressing his shoulders,

"You may feel uncomfortable watching it."

Chu Xinglin sighed, and he seemed to have aged several decades overnight. Although he cared less about Chu Yi and focused all his attention on cultivating Chu Yi, it was his own daughter who died tragically.

"Your mother went crazy after watching it, otherwise you should stop watching it."

"Mom isn't crazy."

Chu Xian broke away from Chu Xinglin's hand, calmly walked to the coffin and pulled Chen Rushuang up,

"Dad, your reaction is what makes people feel abnormal."

Chu Xinglin opened his mouth, but he didn't know whether it was because of Chu Yi's still bones, or because of Chu Xian's gloomy and extremely calm eyes, but he finally swallowed the words that came to his mouth.

"Limited, when will your sister come home? She said she would be home before nine o'clock, and she even made egg tarts in the oven, why don't you accompany me to pick her up?"

Chen Rushuang tightly grasped Chu Xian's hand, as if grasping the last straw.

"I'll accompany you home to rest first, and I'll tell you where Yiyi has gone after you have rested tomorrow."

Chu Xian knew that keeping Chen Rushuang here would only make her more and more sad, so he insisted on taking her home first, Chu Xinglin didn't stop him this time,

"Send them home."

The secretary was about to pick up Chu Xian's mother and son into the car again before he could catch his breath, but it was better to have Chu Xian around than to let him deal with Chen Rushuang alone.

At that time, Chu Xian almost exhausted all his energy just to appease Chen Rushuang. After Chu Yi's death was classified as an accident, he never investigated it further, so he never knew that the person who smashed Chu Yi to death The upstairs person turned out to be Shen Yichi's mother.He also had no way of knowing that the gaze he felt in front of the funeral parlor that night was not an illusion, but actually came from Shen Yichi.

Shen Yichi was also imprisoned at the time. His mother's death in vain, his father's threats, and his mistress' stalking all overwhelmed him, so when he saw Chu Xian, he instinctively wanted to walk towards him, but he Before he walked out of the mourning hall, he was dragged into the house by Shen Su,

"Are you crazy! Do you know that it is the Chu family's car? Your mother killed the daughter of the Chu family. Are you running out now to find trouble for me?"

Seeing that Shen Yichi's face gradually turned pale, Shen Su thought that he had completely frightened him, so he muttered,

"You have to be honest and I can keep you, otherwise when the Chu family wants to kill you, even the king of heaven can't control me."

Shen Yichi didn't reply, but leaned weakly against the pale corner.

Chu Xian's younger sister was killed by them, and the one he met downstairs was Chu Xian's younger sister...

He still remembered that Chu Xian had mentioned this sister to him.At that time, Chu Xian was sitting on the window sill with his back against the sun, his light-colored pupils were reflected into a soft color by the floating light, and with a smile at the end of his eyes, he flaunted exaggeratedly towards Shen Yichi,

"If you also have a younger sister, you will understand how I want to pamper her to heaven."

The memory was ironed into blurred ripples by the dirty water vapor, the midsummer sunshine was suddenly replaced by the glaring incandescent lamp on the top of the mourning hall, Shen Yichi opened his eyes blankly, feeling the biting dull pain of his own powerlessness and guilt.

"You killed your mother, and you killed the daughter of the Chu family."

Shen Su's words echoed in his mind like a curse.

He was the one who killed Chu Xian's beloved sister.
