Lu Enxi didn't want to admit it, but she was nodding in her heart.
She is a staunch materialist, but she is extremely afraid of ghosts. She dare not go to the scene of the crime, dare not watch the autopsy, and will have random thoughts in the cemetery.
Is it really because I did something wrong?
Seeing her legs curled up when she was scared, Si Bo Nian drank the can of beer in his hand and said, "Let's go."
"Leave now?"
He brought so much wine today, probably because he wanted to stay at the cemetery until midnight and spend more time with Xiaoya.
She didn't want her timidity to affect his mourning for his sister. In fact, the moment she met him, she knew that she was too much and she shouldn't have appeared here to disturb their brother and sister's reminiscence.
Because she came uninvited, Si Bo Nian must be embarrassed to say a lot of things, right?
Si Bo Nian threw the empty beer can on the ground and straightened his clothes with one hand, "It's getting late. Could it be possible to spend the night in the cemetery?"
Lu Enxi looked at the few cans of beer he had left. It was better to leave early, otherwise he would drink it all, which would be bad for the wound and the body. "But we are all drunk, how can we drive back?"
After asking, she felt that there was too much worry. Since Si Baonian came with wine, he would notify the driver to pick him up, and it was impossible for him to walk home by himself.
Si Bo Nian didn't put away the beer cans. He stood up and reached out to give her a hand, "Go out first, I'll ask Lao Sun to come over."
"good."
Lu Enxi drank a can of beer to avoid being drunk, but she was a little dizzy due to the wind. She reached out and put her hand on his. She just wanted to use his strength to get up, but he held her finger firmly.
Standing side by side in front of the tombstone, Lu Enxi withdrew his hand, bent down and said to the girl in the photo, "Xiaoya, let's leave first. I'll see you another day."
The girl with the radiant smile would not lower her eyes to reply to her.
They walked out of the cemetery and went down the high steps. Lu Enxi always felt that there was someone behind him, so he followed Si Bo Nian step by step, fearing that he would be left behind in the cemetery if he followed too slowly, and would be attacked by a group of invisible monsters.
Throw down.
A black figure slowly walked over from the opposite direction, kicked away the stars, and placed a large bouquet of red roses in the middle.
His gloved fingers slowly slid over the photo, "Xiaoya, are you okay?"
——
After sending Lu Enxi home, Si Bo Nian leaned on the back of the back seat and closed his eyes to rest.
Lao Sun saw that he was a little tired, so he closed all the windows. The car was very quiet, and soft classical music was playing. The young master had trouble sleeping, so the soft music might soothe his nerves.
"Old Sun, do you think she has changed?"
Lao Sun held the steering wheel and asked, "Is the music too loud and disturbing you?"
"No."
After confirming that it was not him who woke up the young master, Old Sun said, "Miss Lu used to be very lively and liked to chat when riding in the car. She had to tell almost all the interesting things she encountered. But now she is silent. She didn't talk much along the way. Maybe it was because of the long journey.
When you get older, your mind becomes calmer."
Whether you like to talk or not has nothing to do with your age. It just depends on who you are with and whether you are willing to talk.
There is a mountain of time between them and a yesterday that cannot be returned. How can it be exactly the same as before?
Closing his eyes again, Si Bo Nian thought about what happened recently.
After he flew back to Los Angeles from Bincheng, Dai Jiaxiang contacted him aggressively that night, saying in sharp words that the London project needed to be re-evaluated and that Dihua would terminate the investment and withdraw the 18 billion it had invested.
.
All he said at that time was, "Come to my office to discuss business."
The next day, Dai Jiaxiang went to the president's office in the KM headquarters building. He opened the contract and wrote lightly, "Mr. Dai wants to terminate the contract and withdraw capital. Why not take a look at our contract first. If Mr. Dai accepts liquidated damages, then KM has no objection."
Perhaps Dai Jiaxiang took this project for granted before, thinking that it would be his first project with his future son-in-law, but he forgot several important details in the contract.
If one party proposes withdrawal of capital and breach of contract, five times the compensation will be paid.
Dai Jiaxiang's face at that moment was so ugly that it was included in the textbooks of the acting department, allowing them to imitate it repeatedly and learn what it means to be dumbfounded and furious.
He kindly reminded Dai Jiaxiang, "Since Mr. Dai doesn't want to cooperate with km, I won't force him. There is a solution, you may wish to consider it."
The next day, Dai Jiaxiang and his lawyer came to his office to discuss how to withdraw funds from the project.
Du Junjie explained the stakes in an orderly manner and argued with the other party's lawyer. Finally, he took out a project document from KM in Los Angeles and said, "The money Mr. Dai invested in KM will never be returned according to the contract, but the valuation of this project
Far more than you have invested in England, and in exchange I can give it to you."
Dai Jiaxiang was quite careful in his work and agreed to go back and think about it.
In the end, Dai Jiaxiang agreed to this proposal after some unknown mental journey.
After signing, he reminded Dai Jiaxiang again, "Mr. Dai is very resolute in the mall. I believe you can make this project bigger and stronger, but I have also made ugly remarks up front. If Mr. Dai really can't run the business, I am willing to help."
The projects managed by km were all top priority. As long as you followed the steps, you could make a steady profit. Dai Jiaxiang did not take his reminder to heart.
When he left, he turned around and laughed coldly, "Master Si, be a good person before you do anything. A company as big as KM cannot be built by deception. If someone doesn't cherish their feathers and acts arbitrarily, a century-old foundation will be destroyed!"
After seeing him off, Du Junjie said softly, "President, will we proceed as planned?"
"Keep him happy for a month."
"yes."
After finishing all these things, the time came for Xiaoya's death anniversary.
Since yesterday, my parents' deep sadness has spread to every corner of the house. Grandpa's doctor also called to say that his blood pressure has been high these days.
When I woke up in the morning, my mother was so sad that she cried until she fainted at home. The doctor gave her a sedative and she fell asleep for a few hours.
It was also on this day that he had a long conversation with his father, who had not sat down and chatted for a long time.
That conversation lasted for two hours from the beginning to the end, and he only cared about three sentences.
[Your mother's heart disease may only be cured by your remarriage. You have been unwilling to get married, and she is afraid that you will still miss Lu Enxi. Her lawyer's career is very prosperous, and now she is in the news. What about you?
?Fascinated by her again?]
[You don’t like Dai Yutong, so that’s okay. We’ll find a better girl for you. Your mother likes her very much. She’s in Zurich and she’ll be back in a few days.]
[Son, I always feel that there is another hidden reason behind Xiaoya's death. Who did she meet on the day she left and what happened? Is it impossible to find out at all? In order to let Xiaoya rest in peace in heaven, I will mobilize some people to participate.
, find out everything that happened that day.]
After accompanying his parents to pay homage to Xiaoya at the cemetery during the day, he returned to the company and was busy for a long time.
In the evening, another person drove to the cemetery.
He thought he might meet her today.
Time was flowing away as the wine kept flowing down his throat, and he thought he could no longer wait for her.
When he finished his fourth can of beer, he finally heard her footsteps.
When he received her call, the joy of victory in her voice made him go crazy several times, but when he heard her crying at night, he couldn't get angry at all, only the pain filled his heart.
She talked about Xiaoya's experience of having a failed secret love and getting drunk. Her soft voice was filled with a thin cry, and in the cold cemetery, it was like a breeze waking up the dead body.
At that moment, he realized that his heart, which had been dead for several days, was finally alive.
When he sent her back, she sat quietly next to him, looking out the window at the night scene. The neon lights flickered on and off. Her fair face was hidden in the red lights and green wine of the city, and she was so thin that it made people feel sad.
"Master?"
Lao Sun shouted in a low voice, and Si Bo Nian opened his eyes, "What?"
Lao Sun's car was parked outside the villa. The bright headlights illuminated a figure in front of him. The man blocked the front of the car and used his arms to stop the car from moving forward.
