"Program, good morning."
As Lian Qiao greeted the program, Old Lian stared intently at her, his long-dormant heart trembling slightly.
"Programmer, who is this?" Old Lian asked.
The program quickly introduced, "Elder Lian, this is Professor Lian Qiao from Licheng Military Medical University, the mentor of Huo Dongfang's fiancée, Ye Fanxing."
Forsythia?
It is a medicinal herb.
Like his wife, Banxia, it is also a traditional Chinese medicine.
"Professor Lian, hello."
Because he always thought that Ye Fanxing might be his granddaughter, he was exceptionally attentive and eager when dealing with Lian Qiao.
Lian Lao reached out his hand to Lian Qiao.
Lianqiao is not used to such close contact with other strangers.
She did not shake hands with Mr. Lian, but simply said calmly and composedly, "Hello."
Seeing the awkwardness on Elder Lian's face, the program tried to smooth things over by asking, "Teacher Lian, did you come to Huacheng with Ye Fanxing?"
"right."
Lianqiao gave a casual reply.
When Elder Lian heard Ye Fanxing's name, a sense of urgency welled up in his heart.
He wanted to see Ye Fanxing.
But right now, there are other, more important things to do.
"Programmer, it's getting late, let's get back to work."
"good."
The program helped Old Lian walk away from Lian Qiao.
As Elder Lian passed by Lian Qiao, a faint fragrance of herbs enveloped him.
The aroma of these herbs felt somewhat familiar to Elder Lian.
His wife, Banxia, also had this herbal scent.
When the old man turned around uncertainly, all he saw was Lian Qiao's back as she walked into the house.
In a daze, Lian Lao felt that the figure from behind looked exactly like his wife, Xu Banxia.
But she wasn't.
Her name is Lianqiao.
His wife's name is Xu Banxia.
"Programmer, are you familiar with this Teacher Lian?" Teacher Lian asked.
The program said, "I'm not familiar with it, but Huo Dongfang might be more familiar with it. If you want to know anything, you can ask Huo Dongfang."
"drive."
Even the old man leaned wearily against the leather seat.
He closed his eyes tightly, and the image of Xu Banxia from back then appeared in his eyes.
At that moment, she watched him leave.
At that time, they never imagined that a separation would be a permanent one.
The two were like two wild grass seeds, scattered across this land of China, withering and flourishing year after year, only to be reborn in the spring of the following year.
The program cautiously glanced at Elder Lian in the rearview mirror, thinking to itself: "How about they arrange for Ye Fanxing to meet Elder Lian tonight?"
Lianqiao and Lian Lao reunited after being separated for half a century.
Their youthful days are gone, and they are no longer the same as they were in each other's memories.
They passed each other like strangers, without causing even a ripple in each other's hearts.
Today, Ye Fanxing and her three companions are going back to the Ye family compound.
Lianqiao wants to regain her memories in the Ye family's courtyard.
After much deliberation and discussion with Huo Dongfang, Ye Fanxing terminated her lease with the other tenants in the courtyard ahead of schedule.
Of course, Lan Tian and her daughter stayed in the Ye family's courtyard.
Firstly, Ye Fanxing and Lian Qiao still need to return to Licheng Military Medical University to study medicine, and this small courtyard cannot be left uninhabited.
Secondly, the photo that Lan Tian found revealed the secret of Ye Heping's background. Without this photo, Ye Fanxing and Lian Qiao, the grandmother and granddaughter, would not have recognized each other.
Ye Fanxing is grateful and hopes to do her part to help Lantian.
The other tenants also knew that Ye Fanxing had given them cheap rent, and with Huo Dongfang in charge, they didn't cause any trouble. Instead, they quietly packed their things and moved out of the Ye family's courtyard within a month.
Lian Qiao sat under the jujube tree, looking at the bright red jujubes on the tree, and reached out to open Ye Heping's file.
With Huo Dongfang's help, Lian Qiao not only had information about Ye Heping before the incident, but also information about the incident after it happened.
Lianqiao went through all the materials countless times.
"Commander."
The guard walked up behind Huo Dongfang, leaned close to his ear, and whispered a reminder.
Huo Dongfang subconsciously glanced at Ye Fanxing and nodded slightly without making a sound.
"Xingxing, you, Master, and Uncle wait for me here."
Huo Dongfang's eyes were calm and composed.
"I'll be right back."
Ye Fanxing, unaware of what was about to happen, could only nod and agree, "Okay."
The moment Huo Dongfang turned around, his face softened with gentleness, replacing the murderous intent that had filled it.
He strode out of the Ye family courtyard and walked toward the car parked at the alley entrance.
"What happened?"
The guard said, "Cheng Jian behaved well inside and also performed meritorious service, so he was released early."
When did this happen?
Huo Dongfang and Ye Fanxing were in Licheng, so they didn't pay much attention to what was happening in Huacheng.
It wasn't until the two returned from Licheng and investigated Ye Heping's background that they discovered Cheng Jian had been released from prison for meritorious service.
Of course, the most crucial point is that Huo Dongfang had not heard a single word of prior notice.
Just a few days ago.
Huo Dongfang frowned slightly and said, "Check where Cheng Jian is currently staying."
"yes."
Cheng Jian's release from prison sent alarm bells ringing in Huo Dongfang's mind.
While the guards were checking Cheng Jian's whereabouts, Huo Dongfang was checking whether Cheng Jian's release from prison procedures were in violation of regulations.
Although Huo Dongfangren left, he still left guards near the Ye family's courtyard.
Both Ye Fanxing and Lian Qiao need someone to take care of them.
Shortly after Huo Dongfang left, Cheng Jian, dressed in disguise, appeared in the alley of the Ye family's courtyard.
The Cheng family used to live in this small courtyard, so they were quite familiar with the people around the Ye family's courtyard.
Cheng Jian casually asked a neighbor and learned that someone had been investigating the Ye family recently.
The period of imprisonment made Cheng Jian very gloomy.
Who would have thought that before he went to prison, he had both parents and a harmonious family?
Who could have imagined that in just a few months, his parents would pass away, and his sisters would also be in dire straits?
Even Su Mingyue, who was willing to take the blame for him back then, ended up in such a miserable state.
For Cheng Jian, the reason why the Cheng family suffered this calamity was all because of Ye Fanxing.
If Ye Fanxing hadn't climbed up to Huo Dongfang, the Cheng family wouldn't have ended up in such a predicament!
After his release from prison, Cheng Jian was constantly thinking about revenge.
He wanted to kill Ye Fanxing.
They wanted to force Ye Fanxing to kneel before her parents' gravestones and repent to them.
He wanted Ye Fanxing to suffer a fate worse than death.
He wanted to use Ye Fanxing's blood to comfort his parents' spirits in heaven.
"Brother Cheng."
A thug walked up to Cheng Jian and asked, "That woman has bodyguards with her, we can't do anything about it!"
Cheng Jian gathered clues from his neighbors and learned that someone was investigating Ye Heping's background. He decided to use this to lure Ye Fanxing into a trap he had set up.
