"You're teasing me!" Chen Bei raged. He leaned on Xu Xiao's left shoulder, feeling helpless. "Ah Xiao, you've always had the final say between us. Don't you know that?"
He wouldn't force her, and he would back off at the mere word of her.
Xu Xiao raised his hand, grabbed the back of his neck, and tilted his head to look at him: "I don't know, so you blame me?"
A sudden autumn rain interrupted the young man and woman's mutual testing, and they clutched each other and ran towards the dilapidated thatched hut.
Just like the sudden September rain, their faces changed. They leaned on each other and hugged each other tightly.
Even if the raindrops flowed over their trouser legs and onto their faces, they had only one thought in their minds - to hug each other, hug each other tightly.
Three people were squatting stealthily on the edge of a field not far away.
Chen Nan had been in a bad mood since he was called over. Furthermore, they had gone out without an umbrella, so they were forced to squat in the rain.
Yes, squat!
When he thought about doing such a stupid thing, Chen Nan turned his head and stared at the person at the edge. His gaze was so intense that the blond and blue-eyed foreigner in the middle couldn't help but bend his body, trying to hide himself in the half-dried field under his feet.
Fang Hui also felt wronged. It was his senior brother who asked him to do all this - calling Chen Bei over and making Xu Xiao go find Chen Bei.
It was clearly beyond his ability to handle the situation. Fang Hui was extremely disloyal and pointed directly at the foreigner in the middle: "Brother, what are you asking us to do here?"
Chen Nan tilted his head and glanced at the foreigner.
"..." The senior brother took off the transparent rain hat on his head. Before leaving, he specially found a raincoat. Perhaps knowing that his "guilt is serious," he wiped his wet hair and said, "Chen, Fang, this proves that there is indeed something wrong with Xu. You will understand it for yourself."
What's wrong with that? A young couple quarrels, then makes up and cuddles together. What's wrong with that?
Not only Chen Nan had this idea, but Fang Hui, who had half confidence in his senior brother, also had two ideas.
In the rain, the dilapidated thatched house, the pale yellow thatched house, the thatched house almost hidden in the rain. If there is anything special about it, it may be that there is a pair of men and women hugging each other standing under the eaves.
What's wrong with this?
Fang Hui: "Brother, we're leaving first."
He didn't understand the world of medical geeks, but he knew that if he stayed any longer, the relationship he had worked so hard to save would fall apart again!
Chen Nan nodded silently. She had already made a note of this incident with Fang Hui, as for settling the score, she would wait until there were no outsiders around.
The senior brother held the hands of the two men. He held Chen Nan with his left hand and Fang Hui with his right hand, and with a clever move he pulled the two men who had just appeared back to the edge of the field.
As a doctor, you cannot do without strength, especially a doctor like him who has to deal with special patients.
The senior brother withdrew his hand with satisfaction, thinking to himself that he was indeed a good doctor.
Chen Nan and Fang Hui: "..."
Chen Nan couldn't help but said, "Brother, just say whatever you want to say."
If she hadn't been certain that this foreigner was Fang Hui's senior brother and had come specifically to help them, she would have suspected that this man was deliberately trying to frame them.
"Yes, Senior Brother, we believe you." Fang Hui said as he took off his senior brother's raincoat and stood up to put it on Chen Nan. "Of course, if you want to experience the fun of the rain, I'll accompany you."
In a few minutes, Chen Nan was almost soaked. She was wearing a raincoat, but she didn't return it to her senior brother.
She took off her raincoat and placed it in front of herself and her senior brother: "Senior brother, let's not mince words. Just say whatever you want to say!"
Two short strands of hair stuck to the corners of her eyes, and raindrops kept falling from between her brows, making her face, which was not gentle to begin with, look even more ferocious.
At this time, Chen Nan didn't care about respecting the doctor's words.
If this doctor was a good doctor, if she was a good doctor, she wouldn't be squatting here in the rain.
Having said that, she could only be unkind.
Sensing the two powerful forces, the senior brother quickly changed the subject: "Xu's mental state is problematic."
This statement indeed caught the attention of the two resentful people.
Chen Nan: "What's the problem?"
The senior brother took a branch he had picked up from somewhere and drew two "X"s in the low places. "These are the two people under the house." He circled only one of the "X"s. "This is Xu. Look carefully at her expression now."
It is said that my senior brother is a talented person. He brought people to the field. There were other ridges in the field. The ridges stretched layer by layer, and the terrain continued to drop downwards.
They hid in a high field, just in time to see the two people who were sheltering from the rain under the thatched hut clearly.
Chen Nan suddenly said, "Did Xu Xi tell you about this place?"
"Yes, thanks to Xu. Is there any problem?" The senior brother nodded, not understanding why Chen Nan asked this.
"No problem." Chen Nan said with a forced smile, gritting his teeth, "Go on."
The autumn rain comes suddenly and heavily. After the momentum passes, the rain gradually becomes lighter, and finally only a few dark clouds remain in the sky.
Xu Xiao had already pushed Chen Bei away. She subconsciously took out her lighter, paused in taking out the cigarette, and continued to turn the lighter, but no longer looked at Chen Bei who was standing beside her.
"Maybe she's running away." The senior brother said, "She's like two people in her heart, one during the rain, and one after the rain."
It's like one person is suffering and the other has survived the suffering. These are two distinct states.
Chen Nan and Fang Hui were completely confused. They only understood one thing - they were squatting here just to prove that Xu Xiao was sick.
No, maybe Xu Xiao is not sick, but they are sick.
The sick patient knew to hide from the rain, but the doctor next to him squatted in the rain.
The senior brother spoke in Chinese awkwardly, but after talking for a long time, he still didn't know how to say it.
Xu Xiao gave him a very similar feeling, very similar to the patient he had seen before. However, Xu Xiao was a little different.
But he still couldn't tell what was different. "Fang, I still need some time. I can guarantee that there will be no problem now—"
Before he could finish his words, Chen Nan and Fang Hui ran away, and Chen Nan did not forget to take away the raincoat that was casually thrown on the ground.
Senior Brother: You Chinese are so scheming!
The rain subsided, and Xu Xiao pushed Chen Bei away, chuckling ruthlessly, "I'm cooperating with you, right?"
Chen Bei sighed, feeling helpless: "A Xiao, I don't know their plan."
Fang Hui told him that something was wrong with Xu Xiao, so he rushed over directly.
Xu Xiao tilted his head: "Chen Bei, I don't like to deal with people casually. In one year, you will investigate everything thoroughly."
She knew Chen Bei's sense of morality too well. He would not continue to be so foolish with her, so she gave him time.
As for what happens next, she doesn't care.
Chen Bei lowered his head, staring at Xu Xiao, his voice a little hoarse: "What about a year later?"
If he couldn't figure it out, what would she do?
Xu Xiao sneered and reached out to grab the lighter from Chen Bei's hand: "Just like before."
She is still Chen Bei's sister, and all the things she and he did together can be regarded as a dream.
Chen Bei stood there in a daze. He wanted to grab Xu Xiao's hand, but he didn't move.
He wanted to be with her, but he couldn't feel at ease.
Xu Xiao has no aspirations for love, and she is very clear about this.
It was precisely because of this clarity that she chose Chen Bei. He looked pleasing to the eye, and they were both respectable people.
Even if they no longer love each other and no longer have the so-called passion, they will still be responsible for each other. This was Xu Xiao's original idea.
But now, she actually really hopes to continue with Chen Bei.
When there is hope, there are also delusions. This year is not only a test for Chen Bei, but also a test for herself.
She needed this time to think clearly about her feelings for Chen Bei. Was she attracted by his face or by the man himself?
Although Xu Xiao was thinking about something, he walked quickly. He quickly disappeared into the back mountain and continued to monitor the Xu family.
Even if Zhao Ling hadn't disappeared, she would have gone because of Xu Huai.
He wanted to go to Beijing, but she didn't see him in the end.
The Xu family has a problem.
The Xu family yard was as quiet and peaceful as usual. The women were cooking, the men were sitting and talking, or doing some bamboo weaving, and Xiao Si was squatting in the corner playing.
It's too normal, so normal that it's weird.
Xu Xiao stood up and walked back, just in time to meet Xu Xi who was looking for her. Xu Xi lowered her voice and said, "Sister Xu, someone saw Ji Hong boarding a train with a masked woman the day after Ji Hong disappeared."
That woman is most likely Zhao Ling, and her so-called disappearance is just a scheme of the two.
Xu Xiao narrowed his eyes, revealing a hint of anger for no reason, which made Xu Xi even more cautious: "So should we continue to have people investigate?"
"No need to check. Prepare a ticket for Blanco. He's going to Jing City too."
Xu Xi looked puzzled, and Xu Xiao added, "Brother. I'll be back soon."
After saying this, she walked up the mountain.
After the rain, mushrooms sprouted up again on the mountain. The soil was soft, and the leaves underfoot rustled as I stepped on them.
A man with gray hair and a hunched back stood in front of two new graves.
It’s Xu Zhu.
Xu Xiao walked over and asked: "Why are you helping Ji Hong?"
The only person who could do all this was Xu Zhu, whose son-in-law was a train conductor.
Everything was too coincidental, and Xu Xiao really had to doubt it.
Xu Zhu turned around, her eyes sparkling. "You're still too young." She suddenly lowered her voice. "You don't know how Ah Xiu died, do you?"
The Xu family told Xu Xiao that her mother died because of her. Upon hearing this, Xu Xiao chuckled and responded: "It seems that you are not very united either."
Xu Zhu laughed along, "I'm not like them. They're beasts who take advantage of others and dare not admit it."
Xu Xiao agreed very much. If it weren't for the grudge, Xu Zhu would be an elder she respected.
After finishing speaking, Xu Zhu restrained her smile, her cloudy eyes still shrewd: "Xu Xiao, this is to thank you. Don't come here again in the future."
Xu Xiao squatted in front of the grave, lowered his head and whispered in distress: "I forgot to bring something, I'll just have to make do with it."
As she spoke, she placed three cigarettes in front of each grave. Fortunately, the soil was moist, so she just had to dig and press it with her hands.
As she lit a cigarette, she replied to Xu Zhu: "Auntie, you are wrong. My last name is Xu, and we all have the same last name."
They are blood relatives, so they should torture each other and scheme against each other.
Xu Zhu lost her strength, her hands trembling, "When will this cycle of revenge end? Do you really hate us that much?"
"It's not hatred," Xu Xiao lazily lifted his eyelids and turned back: "I just feel that you must live well to atone for your sins."
Otherwise, her life would be much less fun.
"Monster!" Xu Zhu screamed, "You are a monster."
"Great-grandfather, great-grandmother are still here," Xu Xiao tilted her head, put her index finger to her lips and chuckled, "Grandma, please be polite. Don't worry, even if I leave here, I will not forget you."
If the Xu family lived too well, it would be a waste of her efforts.
