Si Yang was released from the confinement room, and Pei Tingyu and Qin Lingxiao sat in silence for a moment.
"What do you think of what she said?" Qin Lingxiao gave Pei Tingyu a calm look.
Pei Tingyu tapped the table with his even, slender fingertips. "Half true, half false."
"For example?"
"Have you ever seen anyone digging for ginseng during a blizzard? As for the rest, I should ask you. What has your sister been through? Is it true? You should know better than me. If what she said is true, it makes sense that a woman who has been tempered by the cruelty of life would have mastered some survival skills."
After Pei Tingyu finished speaking, he struck a match, cupped his hands to hold the flame, and lit a cigarette.
The smoke rose and spread, then dissipated in wisps. He looked up and vaguely saw Si Yang's eyes again.
Those eyes that were sometimes innocent, sometimes sad, sometimes cold and sarcastic...
He knew that her eyes told many stories.
Qin Lingxiao was silent for a long time, unable to come back to his senses. He was thinking about what Si Yang said and some things that happened after she returned to the Qin family.
He knew she had suffered a lot, and he wanted to make it up to her, but she was like a proud hedgehog.
He has a sharp tongue and will hurt anyone he sees.
He hoped that what Si Yang said was true, so that he could at least clear himself of her identity as a spy.
But he didn't want the hurt Si Yang experienced to be real.
For a moment, I felt complicated and a little irritated.
"Brother--" Outside the house, Qin Zhenzhen's gentle and clear voice broke the two men's thoughts.
Qin Lingxiao did not respond to Qin Zhenzhen outside, but looked at Pei Tingyu seriously.
"Please keep an eye on her for me. Currently, there's no further evidence pointing to her having a special identity, but that doesn't completely clear her of suspicion."
The burning cigarette flickered between Pei Tingyu's bony fingers, and his distant gaze was cast out the window.
"Only by letting her join the armed group will I have the opportunity to find out her strength..."
Si Yang returned to the dormitory and as soon as she entered the door, she saw Zhang Xiao'e and Xiangcao coming towards her.
"Si Yang, are you okay? We heard you were put in solitary confinement. We were scared to death."
"What happened? Could it be that those two women were pushed into the ditch by the sheep?"
The two girls surrounded her and kept asking questions.
Si Yang laughed heartlessly, turned around and picked up the lunch box. "Nothing, let's go... Let's eat..."
Xiangcao returned home, and they made an appointment to go see Tie Niu tomorrow and eat dumplings at her house.
Si Yang and Zhang Xiao'e will go to the cafeteria to eat together tonight.
The Sixth Company already had a handsome guy like Pei Tingyu, and with the addition of a gentle and elegant man like Xue Bin, it was already something that made other companies jealous.
Qin Lingxiao came again today, and all the female educated youth in the company were almost going crazy.
Especially when Pei Tingyu and Qin Lingxiao appeared in the cafeteria at the same time, they attracted almost everyone's astonished gaze.
"Oh my god! They all eat whole grains, so how do they manage to look so good?"
Bai Tian and Qin Zhenzhen also sat around a table with the two men.
They felt the envious gazes from those around them, and their vanity was satisfied to a great extent.
Si Yang and Zhang Xiao'e sat in the innermost corner and were too lazy to even look at them.
Especially when she saw Qin Zhenzhen's face, she felt like she had eaten shit.
Disgusting~
Qin Zhenzhen immediately noticed Si Yang sitting in the corner. She quietly withdrew her gaze and moved closer to Qin Lingxiao.
"Brother, my sister is over there. We brought roast duck. Can we ask her to come and eat with us?"
Qin Lingxiao smiled with relief, raised his hand and touched Qin Zhenzhen's head lovingly. "Zhenzhen is such a considerate and sensible girl. I'll go call her."
Qin Lingxiao stood up and walked towards Si Yang. Bai Tian immediately pouted in dissatisfaction, "Zhenzhen, why are you still so nice to her when Qin Siyang treated you like that? I'm so angry!" Bai Tian stomped her feet, as if she was disappointed in her son.
