Silent all night.

It was already daylight when I woke up.Lin Heng looked around the room in a daze, but he didn't find Nan Yucheng.

Last night, in the middle of the night, I didn't know when I fell asleep, but it seemed that I fell asleep quite deeply, and even the movement of Nan Yucheng's departure didn't wake me up at all.

He took out his phone and looked at it. It was nine ten in the morning.There are two unread text messages displayed on the phone.

Click to open it, and the first sender is Nan Yucheng, a text message half an hour ago.

"I'll go out for a while. You wait for me in the room and be back in an hour."

Lin Heng pursed his lips.After last night's rat incident, the man seemed to have his eye on himself even tighter.Did he really think he was that timid?Lin Heng was a little dissatisfied, but after thinking about it, what he has shown since getting to know Nan Yucheng seems to be a very timid side?

Lin Heng coughed in embarrassment, unwilling to think deeply, and continued to click on the second text message.

The second text message was sent at three o'clock last night.The sender is Gu Qiyuan.

Seeing Gu Qiyuan's name, Lin Heng paused his fingers, thought about it, and clicked on the text message.

Ever since he told Gu Qiyuan last time that he was going to move out of school to live with Nan Yucheng, Gu Qiyuan had been very dissatisfied, and Lin Heng, who was on the phone with him at that time, fell silent with his outrageous anger. It was a cold war for almost a month, and finally Lin Heng plucked up the courage to talk to the other party, and the relationship between the two slowly eased.

Although I don't understand what exactly Gu Qiyuan is angry about, it can still be seen that Gu Qiyuan seems to be very unhappy with Nan Yucheng.

Therefore, whenever Nanyu City was mentioned, Lin Heng would be extra careful.

The content of Gu Qiyuan's text message is: "Go back to your hometown? With Nan Yucheng?"

How did he know that he went back with Nan Yucheng?Lin Heng was a little puzzled, but cleverly avoided the topic of Nanyu City.Instead, he replied vaguely: "Well, I'm here to worship the ancestors, and I'll be back in a few days."

Gu Qiyuan replied very quickly, without too much entanglement on this issue, and instead asked: "Have you found a job?"

When it comes to work, Lin Heng has a headache.

Originally, his father's plan was to let him join his company after graduation, but Lin Heng was unwilling to do so, and wanted to go out and experience himself.

However, it is not so easy to practice. He has a good academic record and strong abilities, but every time he goes to an interview, there is either a mistake here or a problem there, no matter how much the other party appreciates him, or how much he wants to go here. For any company, there will always be some ridiculous reasons in the end that prevent him from successfully applying for the job.

Thinking of my recent interview experience, the job is very suitable for him, and the interviewer appreciates him very much. I have already contacted him and I can go to work officially in a few days. I didn’t expect that when he showed up at the company on time, He was told that he was not selected.

The reason was that the department manager who interviewed him at that time was dismissed overnight because he accidentally offended the big boss, and the new manager kicked out Lin Heng decisively because a relative happened to need the job and replaced him with his own. Relatives are superior.

Lin Heng was depressed for a while after learning the truth.However, this is not the first time such a thing has happened, and I don't know if it is my own bad luck or what is going on. I have graduated for several months and interviewed more than a dozen companies, and things always go wrong.

So when Gu Qiyuan asked this question, Lin Heng sighed leisurely, and replied: "No. I'm still thinking about whether I should give in to my dad."

Gu Qiyuan quickly replied: "Do you want to consider coming to my place?"

His suggestion moved Lin Heng's heart: Gu Qiyuan is working for a well-known local communication economy company, which has a group of first-line stars, and it is also one of the industries under the name of Gu's family.After Gu Qiyuan graduated, his father handed over the company to him to take full charge of the management. It also gave Gu Qiyuan some experience and gradually learned to take over the family business.

Lin Heng is unwilling to start his own business under the shadow of his father, but wants to work hard on his own.But now he was running into walls and couldn't find a job, and Lin Heng felt a little discouraged for a while.Although Gu Qiyuan's company is under the name of their family, but because of his relationship with Gu's family, going to work there also has some "relationship building" factors in it.But it is also the first time for Gu Qiyuan to take over such a thing, and he has just begun to try everything. Lin Heng may be able to help him if he goes, instead of being like a rice under the name of his father. insect.

Just as he was thinking, Gu Qiyuan sent another text message: "Think about it, I hope you can help me."

Gu Qiyuan is a very strong person, and he rarely shows weakness. What he said made Lin Heng, who was still a little hesitant, make a decision immediately, and he quickly replied: "Okay. I will come when I come back." Looking for you."

After sending the text message, Nan Yucheng just opened the door and came back.

Lin Heng looked at him with some joy, and shook his phone: "I found a job."

Nan Yucheng did not show a relaxed expression. He glanced at the door, closed the door, walked up to Lin Heng, took out a fist-sized speaker from his pocket, and handed it to Lin Heng.

Nan Yucheng said: "The female voice last night should have come from this."

Lin Heng was surprised: "Where did you find it?"

"On the corridor outside my room, in the crack of the eaves near the top floor, there is a bird's nest, and this thing is hidden behind it." Nan Yucheng paused, and continued: "It's very hidden, and it's impossible for ordinary people to find it. .”

"How can you be sure that this thing is making the sound? Maybe it's an ordinary speaker?" Lin Heng questioned.

"Who would hide the stereo so secretly? Besides, I went out early this morning just to investigate the surrounding situation. I walked around this yard three times, but I didn't notice any breath of life." Nan Yucheng's eyes were deep: " There are no ghosts who died unjustly here, so the sound last night can only be caused by man."

"Then, who would do that?" Lin Heng murmured.

"I don't know." Nan Yucheng smiled coldly: "The pond in your house is very deep."

Lin Heng shivered suddenly, and suddenly remembered the conversation between his second uncle and his aunt that he heard last night.

Could it be... this matter is actually someone with a heart who is using that woman from back then to make trouble?

But what is the purpose of doing this?Just to scare the second uncle and the others?Or was it just an unintentional prank?

If this man's purpose was to intimidate his second uncle and aunt, how did he know about that woman?And, how did he put the stereo outside Nan Yucheng's room silently?

There are two or three wolfdogs in the small courtyard of the Lin family, and the security guards will release them to wander in the courtyard at night.And since the other party was able to sneak in without anyone noticing, and installed a stereo on the eaves outside Nanyucheng's room, it means that this person can at least enter and leave the small courtyard freely, and will not be suspected, not even wolf dogs. will bark at him.

There is only one explanation for this situation: this person is probably in the small courtyard.

Is it a prank or an ulterior motive?Lin Heng couldn't judge.

He thought about it, but still didn't tell Nan Yucheng what he heard last night.This matter is a bit weird, and it is impossible to make an effective judgment with so little information in a short period of time.Let's take a step at a time.

Lin Heng raised his head and looked at Nan Yucheng: "Did everyone in the yard get up when you went out?"

"Hmm. You want to go out?" Nan Yucheng said.

"I have to say hello to my uncle." Lin Heng got up from the bed, changed his clothes, and said to Nan Yucheng: "If you don't want to go, go out for a stroll by yourself. I'll be back in a while."

Lin Heng went out and went straight to his uncle's room on the second floor.

His room is on the second floor of the main building. Go out from Lin Heng's room, follow the balcony, turn a right angle and walk a few steps.

In this building of the Lin family, each room is an independent suite with its own bathroom and washroom, which is somewhat similar to a small hotel. Several rooms are connected by corridors exposed to the outside, so it is convenient to drop by.

When Lin Heng passed by, the old man had already woken up.Because the weather is too hot recently, I can't eat and I don't have much energy, so I rest in the room.There was a little nanny in her twenties squatting at the door. Lin Heng remembered seeing her once when she came last year. Her name was Li Suisui, and she was a very sensible and clever girl.

Seeing him coming, Li Suisui smiled immediately: "Brother Heng is back, Grandpa has been talking about you for a long time. Come in and sit down."

As he spoke, he led Lin Heng into the room.

The room where the old man lived always had a faint musty smell, mixed with the smell of the Chinese herbal medicine that my uncle had taken all the year round, which made the smell particularly uncomfortable.

The light in the room was very dark, and there were a lot of things packed tightly. Lin Heng always had to pay extra attention when walking in, to avoid accidentally bumping into anything.

Mr. Lin sat half-reclined on the big bed in the innermost part of the room, his spirits languid, and when he saw Lin Heng coming, he just nodded lightly.He called him loudly.

Lin Heng remembered that when he met his uncle last year, he was still in good spirits, and sometimes he would even play mahjong with them. Unexpectedly, when we met again this year, his spirit was already much worse. According to what Cao Siyun said yesterday, the old man has not recovered in the past six months. Da Ai went out of the room, and was always bored in the room, saying that she was not energetic.

But after all, my great-uncle is already in his 80s.

"Uncle, I'm here to see you." Lin Heng walked over with a smile, and sat down next to his bed: "Have you been in better health this year? My dad also said that he will play with you when he comes back next time." What about mahjong!"

Mr. Lin's chest rose and fell, and there was a hollow sound in his chest cavity, which was similar to a bellows beating.He tried his best to put on a smile on his wrinkled face: "Most of my old man's body is buried in the soil, so it's not good. I hope you will come back to see me more often." He said, patting Lin Heng's hand: "Your dad won't come back this year? Is he planning to never visit me until he dies?"

Lin Heng was embarrassed, and quickly laughed and said: "You know, my dad is a workaholic. He flies all over the world all year round, and even I rarely see him a few times. Don't be angry with him, wait until you are busy. After a while, I will definitely let him come and see you."

"When he finishes his work, I'm afraid I'll report to Lord Yan!" The old man sighed, and muttered in a low voice: "I don't know how long he's going to make a fuss! After so many years, he will let go of even such a small matter." No more!"

When Lin Heng heard this, his heart moved, and he quickly asked tentatively: "What's the matter, uncle, I'll listen to you if you tell me."

Mr. Lin glanced at Lin Heng, and saw that he was looking at him curiously, with a fair and pleasing face, and his heart softened a little. After thinking about these things, so many years have passed, and the child has grown up, let him It doesn't matter if you know it, and then said: "Before your father married your mother, he had a romantic history. At that time, he fell in love with a woman of unknown origin and insisted on marrying that woman. In the end, I went to his father to sue her. His father came forward to forcefully separate the two of you. For so many years, your father has always hated me because of this. Now he doesn’t even want to look at me!" At the end of the speech, the old man was a little annoyed, and clapped vigorously He touched the bed board twice.

Lin Heng quickly comforted him: "Don't be angry." He patted his chest as he said, "It's the first time I've heard that my dad still has such a relationship. However, if you didn't come forward and tell grandpa, grandpa won't break them up , what will happen to me later on.”

Speaking of this, he paused for a moment, and said softly: "It's been so many years, my dad should have forgotten it long ago. I don't think he usually mentioned such things. He didn't come to see you because he was really too busy. You But don't overthink it."

Mr. Lin was panting heavily, still a little dissatisfied.Lin Heng coaxed and lied again, and talked with the old man for a long time, seeing that he seemed a little tired, so he said that he still had something to do, and retreated from the room.
