Pei Huai was stunned, his eyes slightly widened, his pupils shrank, as if he didn't understand what she said.
Xie Shizhu didn't continue talking, but took his hand and led him out of the cemetery step by step.
When he got in the car, Pei Huai's palms were full of sweat.
He turned his head to look at Xie Shizhu, his eyes full of confusion, "What did you just say...what did you mean?"
Xie Shizhu wasn't sure either. She needed to prove whether her words were true or not, so she didn't reply to Pei Huai. Instead, she changed the subject and said, "Let's go back. I'm a little tired."
Pei Huai listened to her very much and did not ask any further questions. He started the car and disappeared into the cemetery.

The next day.
Zhu Zhi took the initiative to find Xie Shizhu and said that she wanted to meet her mother and have a meal together as a family.
Xie Shizhu and Pei Huai have been in love for almost four years, and their families have never seen each other.
Soon, Xie Shizhu decided to have dinner at a five-star hotel. When he took his mother inside, his mother looked around and said to Xie Shizhu worriedly, "Isn't this place very expensive?"
Xie Shizhu smiled slightly: "It's not expensive."
Although she said so, the mother was still somewhat reserved and unable to relax.
When they arrived at the private room, the mother sat down and greeted Pei Huai's parents somewhat awkwardly.
Compared to her nervousness, Pei Huai's family was very relaxed. After all, unlike Xie Shizhu's mother, they had been in the business world for many years and had dealt with all kinds of people.
It was also because of this that Zhu Zhi's few words made Xie Shizhu's mother let go of her restraint and become very relaxed.
In order to ease the atmosphere, Zhu Zhi mentioned some interesting stories from Pei Huai's childhood.
In this way, the meal was very harmonious.
Xie Shizhu sat with Pei Huai. Xie Shizhu lowered her head and played Landlord, while Pei Huai looked at her screen from time to time and helped her deal a few cards.
Zhu Zhi looked at the harmonious scene of the two young people and smiled.
Suddenly, Zhu Zhi took something out of her bag, stood up, slowly walked to Xie Shizhu, and put the thing in her hand on her wrist.
Xie Shizhu opened his eyes slightly and looked up at Zhu Zhi, whispering in confusion: "Auntie, what are you doing..."
Zhu Zhi said, "This belongs to Pei Huai. Auntie sees that you two are very loving and will definitely be together until the end, so I am giving you the bracelet that originally belonged to Pei Huai."
Xie Shizhu raised his hand and saw that the bracelet was made of gold with Pei Huai's name written on it.
Just as she was about to take it off and return it to Zhu Zhi, Pei Huai, who was beside her, held her hand and said gently, "My mother gave it to you, so just keep it. Anyway, I only want to marry you in this life."
Xie Shizhu pursed his lips and smiled, then obediently put on the bracelet.
After the dinner.
Before Xie Shizhu and Zhu Zhi parted ways, they casually asked, "Auntie, does Brother Pei Huai also have a bracelet like this?"
After finishing speaking, Zhu Zhi's face flashed with grief, and he nodded, his voice filled with sadness: "Well, but the bracelet with Pei Cheng's name on it has been buried in the cemetery with Pei Cheng's ashes."
Xie Shizhu wanted to ask about the details of the car accident, but was interrupted by his mother.
Her mother touched her shoulder and signaled her not to expose other people's scars.
Xie Shizhu had no choice but to swallow the question he had prepared for a long time.

Xie Shizhu's crew this time is in Fancheng, and they are filming an urban drama.
Fancheng is a prosperous city, so the filming location was chosen here.
The second male lead in the play is very rich, but the crew was unable to rent a suitable villa for the time being. In the end, Xie Shizhu asked Pei Huai to vacate his home for the crew to film.
When all the crew members arrived at the villa, their eyes opened wide.
This family condition is jaw-dropping.
Pei Huai returned to the Pei family and took the opportunity to stay with his parents for a few more months.
Xie Shizhu continued filming. After a while, Pei Huai had almost finished his work, so he went to visit Xie Shizhu on set.
Today Xie Shizhu was filming a car accident scene. She was sitting in the passenger seat and the male lead in the drama was in the driver's seat.
When Pei Huai arrived at the scene and saw Xie Shizhu in the car, his heart suddenly tightened. The scars buried in his memory made him start to worry about the safety of the scene.
"The 300th game begins!"
At the director's command, the male lead stepped on the accelerator and started the car.
In the plot, Xie Shizhu had an argument with the male protagonist, who was so angry that he stepped on the accelerator, causing a car accident.
According to the plot of the TV series, a light truck came towards them.
In order to make the film look authentic, the actors had to act in person at the beginning and film the car rollover scene, with the camera shaking as well.
Pei Huai came to the scene and saw them filming, and only then did he know about this.
He didn't look very good and wanted to pause the entire filming and use a stand-in to replace Xie Shizhu.
However, he knew Xie Shizhu very well. She was dedicated to her work and never used a body double. If he stopped the filming, Xie Shizhu would probably argue with him.
After thinking about it, Pei Huai suppressed his worry and stared closely at the footage behind the camera. His deep eyes did not even blink, for he was afraid of seeing any mistakes.
The truck showed up on time.
Suddenly, Pei Huai's cell phone rang. He took out his phone and looked down at the caller.
It was a call from the secretary. He came to visit today and the company will be managed by the secretary for the time being.
Pei Huai thought that something happened at the company, so he was about to answer the phone. Just as he lowered his eyes and slid the answer button, there was a sudden loud "bang" sound.
He was startled, and the fingers holding the phone trembled slightly. Then, he lost his grip on the phone and it fell to the ground.
Pei Huai's heart was pounding, and he could clearly hear the restless and anxious beating of his heart beneath his skin.
When he looked up, what he saw was a black sedan colliding with a light truck. The whole car rolled over and billowing smoke.
The acrid smoke filled the air.
Pei Huai wanted to go and check, but his feet seemed to be nailed to the spot. He recalled the conversation Xie Shizhu had with him some time ago.
"Is there a possibility that the ashes in this cemetery are indeed yours?"
At first he didn't understand what Xie Shizhu meant, but the scene before him made the memories buried in his heart slowly emerge.
