Ye Mei is the eldest child in the family, with a younger brother and a younger sister.
The younger brother is a bit shy, but he has excellent grades and is obedient. Ye Mei often mentions it in her spare time, and her words are full of love and pride for her younger brother.
Xu Zhou had heard Ye Mei mention this younger brother countless times, and had also seen his photos.
After a moment of silent confrontation, he raised his hand: "Go into the room and talk."
The small houses in the mountain village are simple and shabby, and the wind can leak in when the door is closed. It is very different from the bright lights and high-rise buildings in city A thousands of miles away.
After Xu Zhou's fake death, those people are still investigating. They have been hiding in Tibet all these years, and they can't be stable in one place for a few days, so they have to change places. Although it is shabby here, the contact with the outside world is almost cut off. These few months are the most peaceful time for him in many years.
He seldom communicated with people, and he didn't have much enthusiasm for Ye Mei's younger brother, and his tone was very calm: "What's the matter?"
Ye Nanqi withdrew his gaze.
Xu Zhou was born in a famous university, so he didn't know how to be Ye Mei's assistant. The photos that Shen Du found are still there. The young man who was in high spirits back then is now indifferent and tired, with vigilant and pale eyes. If it weren't for the same facial features, no one would notice that this is the same person for a while.
Shen Du held Ye Nanqi's hand, the palm was warm. Ye Nanqi's heart settled down, and he said, "I want to ask you something, and I need one more thing."
Xu Zhou was still vigilant and didn't say much.
"A few years ago... I stumbled across my sister's diary."
Ye Nanqi paused, seeing Xu Zhou's expression move slightly, and handed the specially brought diary to Xu Zhou.
Xu Zhou took it in silence, his hands trembling slightly, and he moved carefully, for fear of breaking it.
Ye Nanqi's face was pale, and he continued: "Because of this diary, I learned that my sister's death was strange, so I chose the same path as her, entering the entertainment industry, and wanted to get close to her original manager. Rongyu Group."
He lightly described what he planned to do and what he had done in the past few years. Although Shen Du found a lot of things and guessed his plan, he never asked, for fear of poking his wounds, he had never heard him speak in such detail.
Seeing his calm expression, Shen Du held his hand tightly again, feeling grateful in his heart.
Fortunately, he didn't come back too late, and didn't let Ye Nanqi go to self-destruct in loneliness.
Ye Nanqi didn't want to make Shen Du feel too sad, so when he mentioned the difficulties, he lightly skipped them in a few words.
Although it was hard to bear, he survived, accompanied by Shen Du.
Those things in the past, when I think about it again, are not so painful.
When he finished speaking slowly, Xu Zhou also finished reading Ye Mei's diary.
He thought that after running away for so many years, his heart was already numb, but looking at the familiar handwriting in the diary, and hearing Ye Mei's beloved brother plainly describe how he tracked down and wanted to avenge her, his eyes suddenly turned red.
Grief, hatred, anger, and helplessness that had been silent in his heart rose up and intertwined and swelled. His panting was rapid, and tears suddenly slid down his eyes and onto the diary in his hand.
Looking forward to his tearful eyes, Ye Nan said, "Xu Zhou, you like my sister, right?"
Xu Zhou looked at Ye Mei's last diary over and over again, looked at the phrase "I'm about to wake up from a nightmare", and finally nodded silently.
He had just graduated back then, and when he saw Ye Mei looking back and smiling on the rolling screen, his original ambitions were suddenly overturned.
Before that, Xu Zhou never believed in love at first sight, thinking it was nonsense.
But he fell in love with Ye Mei at first sight.
With a passion, he willingly became her assistant, just to get closer to her.
After learning that Ye Mei had a lover, Xu Zhou originally wanted to resign after Ye Mei became famous that year, but everything turned upside down overnight.
Ye Mei disappeared for a day and a night and came back. She was in a trance and almost went crazy, but she didn't tell others what happened.
Xu Zhou closed the diary, cherished it for a moment, handed it back to Ye Nanqi, rolled his eyes deeply, and asked, "Who is this?"
Ye Nanqi said calmly and naturally, "I love you."
Shen Du was startled, held Ye Nanqi's hand, and kissed the back of his hand lightly: "If it's inconvenient, I'll go out, you guys tell me."
Xu Zhou shook his head, and without waiting for Ye Nanqi to say more, he opened his mouth directly: "My mind is a bit messed up, so let me say what comes to mind."
"...your sister was dragged down by Fang Xingyuan. Those people don't dare to attack too popular stars, and accidents are easy to happen." Xu Zhou's face was full of memories, "Your sister is so beautiful, and her contact Everyone in the past liked her very much... I found that her mental state was not right, and I forced her to ask what happened, but she couldn't find anyone to talk to, and she broke down and told me those things."
"At first she wanted to call the police, but she didn't respond after calling the police the first time. Instead, she received warnings from those people. Later she called the police again, and a small group of police came, but nothing could be done..."
"They thought she was not submissive, injected her with drugs and made her addicted."
Those people also threatened the lives of the three members of the Ye family. Ye Mei couldn't resist. She met Chen Min and did many psychological counseling, but she was still depressed and painful.
She also had a lover named Tan Yi, a well-known young photographer and painter. After this incident, she reluctantly broke up with him.
Ye Nanqi unconsciously shook Shen Du's hand back, his chest was blocked, even though he already had a premonition, he still asked, "Where are the others?"
Xu Zhou was silent for a while: "He couldn't accept your sister's sudden breakup, and felt that there must be something hidden. He followed your sister to the villa where those people were partying, and was discovered."
"Those people ... insulted your sister in front of him, beat him up again, and kicked him out. The next day, he was stabbed to death by a drunken gangster in the alley. , that little bastard was sentenced to death, and he was still struggling when he went in, saying he didn't do it."
Ye Nanqi knew that there were two people who accompanied Ye Mei at the end, and Ye Mei wrote it in his diary.
In the past, he thought the other person was Fang Xingyuan, and later he thought it was Ye Mei's lover.
But that person died a long time ago, who else
Seeing Ye Nanqi's doubts, Xu Zhou shook his head: "During that time, her spirit was very unstable, and I was the only one who stayed with her in the end... She also occasionally contacted someone, and what was said in the diary may be that person."
"who is it?"
"She didn't tell me. But once she became a drug addict and passed out after she got under control. I secretly took her mobile phone and saw that there was only one word in the call record... Bai."
White.
A gust of cold wind came in through the crack of the door, and Ye Nanqi shivered.
The first face that popped up in his mind was Bai Yu.
Xu Zhou didn't know who Ye Mei was contacting, so he lowered his head and continued: "Tan Yi's death must not be that simple, but unfortunately everything was faked so simply that the police caught the murderer without much investigation. That little gangster has no relatives and no reason. Yes, it seems that Tan Yi was just unlucky, the family took him back to his hometown for burial, and the court ruled that the death penalty was executed very quickly."
Tan Yi's death was the last straw that crushed Ye Mei.
She fell into the abyss and indirectly killed her lover. She was in extreme pain and wanted to go home to seek comfort from her family. However, her fierce resistance at that time angered the other party. I don't know the truth, and I think it's her wrong family.
Instead, the family members became a force, pushing her to death.
Ye Nanqi, who didn't know it back then, hated Ye Mei, but Xu Zhou never hated the Ye family.
Shen Du silently wrote down Tan Yi's affairs, and planned to go back and check. Seeing Ye Nanqi's silence, he reached out to wrap his arms around his shoulder, and stroked it gently.
Ye Nanqi was comforted, so he had the strength to continue speaking: "How did she anger those people?"
Xu Zhou smiled suddenly: "She pretended to be obedient, let down the vigilance of some people, secretly brought a pinhole camera, and took videos of those people's carnival; at the same time, she hired a detective to secretly take a lot of photos; I also anonymously found a few famous paparazzi, told them a few places, and said that a celebrity held a sex party there."
The ugliest, darkest, most disgusting and dirty side of human nature is fully exposed in the masquerade party that does not need to be concealed.
Thinking of what they saw and heard last time, Ye Nanqi and Shen Du could guess how corrupt it would be without thinking deeply.
Those paparazzi were also considered to be supernatural. They really took pictures of something, which caused an uproar as soon as it broke out, but they were quickly suppressed back, and those paparazzi never appeared again.
This incident almost exposed those people, they were so annoyed that they simply put the hat on Ye Mei and splashed dirty water on it.
Ye Nanqi digested it for a long time, and said, "Where are the photos?"
"Fang Xingyuan stole it." Xu Zhou sneered, "Those people were angered by your sister, and he was not much better. He came to ask your sister to forgive him, and then stole the photos."
The veins on Ye Nanqi's forehead twitched, holding back his anger, and asked, "Is the video in your hand?"
Xu Zhou nodded: "I edited a short clip and put it on the Internet to attract the attention of the police and the public, but I was discovered and almost died at their hands. After I escaped, I forged the death certificate."
Whoever he met in the future, he felt untrustworthy, even the most trusted Chen Wen didn't know what he had in his hand.
When the disparity in strength was too great, he raised his eyes and couldn't find anything reliable. He could only hold the video in his hand, and he only dared to hold it in his hand.
Ye Nanqi sighed after listening, "Thank you for your hard work."
Xu Zhou covered his eyes, and said in a low voice, "No, I'm cowardly. I ran away and didn't dare to report it with evidence. I don't have your determination to avenge her."
"Do you want to give me a hand?"
Xu Zhou said: "In my dreams, I want to avenge your sister."
When going down the mountain, we took another detour. After the heavy rain, the mountain road was muddy and slippery.
Fortunately, Zhang Ping was familiar with the terrain, and the road he walked was smooth and safe. Even so, when they got down the mountain, all of them were covered in mud.
Xu Zhou handed over the evidence to Ye Nanqi. Years of fleeing for his life made him afraid of contacting people. In addition, those people were still chasing him, so he temporarily hid in the small mountain village and came out when needed.
After a lot of effort, a few people found two cars parked at the foot of the mountain. Fortunately, the surrounding area was too desolate to be coveted by gentlemen.
Ye Nanqi's luggage was all in the car, and there were a few changes of clothes. After saying goodbye to Zhang Ping, he got into the car to change.
Shen Du leaned on the car and took out his mobile phone. The high technology has been a waste of iron in the mountains all night, and now he finally has a signal, which can be used to great effect.
He contacted a brother and asked him to help investigate the case of Tan Yi nine years ago.
Ye Nanqi changed his clothes, lowered the car window, and tapped Shen Du on the back: "Wear my clothes?"
Shen Du put away his phone and nodded happily.
Ye Nanqi was thin and half a head shorter than Shen Du, and his clothes were slightly shorter.
But something is better than nothing, not to mention it was worn by his wife, Mr. Shen is very satisfied.
By the way, he commented: "Daughter-in-law, your underwear is a bit tight."
Ye Nanqi glanced at his Xiasanlu: "You can choose to take it off, or I'll chop it up for you and it won't matter."
Shen Du pinched his ears, feeling regretful and sad: "Last night, I was too precious, but today is like this... Sure enough, the delicious food I have tasted is not delicious."
"..." Ye Nanqi was still in shock last night. Now that he calmed down and thought about it, his face was blushing and his tone was cold, "Shut up."
"Just book a ticket for tomorrow afternoon." Shen Du honestly changed the subject, booked the ticket, and looked sideways at Ye Nanqi.
Ye Nanqi was in a daze holding the USB flash drive.
He leaned over, reached out and turned Ye Nanqi's face, facing himself, and said softly: "Don't be too sad, we can avenge my sister. After this matter is resolved, we will go see my sister, baby, remember Point at me and tell my sister 'this is the husband who will be with me for the rest of my life'."
Leaning in his arms, Ye Nanqi couldn't help laughing when he heard the last sentence, rubbed against his shoulder, and said softly, "Shen Du, I'd rather nothing had happened..."
Even if he takes revenge, he may not be very happy.
The traces of Ye Mei's existence and the pain she has suffered cannot be erased with time and the resolution of the matter.
It's best if nothing happens.
Shen Du kissed him on the cheek: "I would rather nothing happened."
Ye's father didn't have a car accident, Ye Wan didn't have blindness and paralysis, Ye's family was harmonious and beautiful, and Ye Mei didn't suffer from those things... Then his Nannan could live happily through this life, instead of engraving it in his heart that will never be erased imprint.
Even then, they might not meet again, he wouldn't fall in love with Ye Nanqi, and Ye Nanqi would always hate him...even then, it's fine.
Zhang Ming waited patiently for the two of them to finish their dawdling, got into another car, and drove to the city.
After bumping for a while, the road gradually became smoother. When driving back to the nearest city Y, it was already dark.
After checking the hotels in Y City, Shen Du led the way to the property owned by the Shen family. When he arrived at the place, he found the hotel manager and revealed his identity, and asked him to keep it secret, and went to buy two sets of clothes and come back.
Yesterday was a day of tossing and I didn't get a good night's rest. The bed was too hard and it was too tight. Ye Nanqi slept in the car for a while, and he slept better than on the mountain.
But still sleepy, he and Shen Du went into the hotel room, drank cold water before waking up, called Li Hengran, explained the situation, then borrowed Shen Du's computer, and emailed a copy of the video to Li Hengran.
After doing all this, his fingers pressed on the mouse, his fingertips trembling, and it took him a while before he had the courage to open the video.
The screen vibrated for a bit, and it was not very clear at first, and then there was a noise leaking out, and it became clearer.
I can't tell where the background is, but it is similar to what Shen Du Ye Nanqi encountered, too extravagant.
The only difference is that the boundary between "master and servant" is very clear.
The slaves had collars around their necks, were led by their masters, or had tags around their necks with clearly marked prices, and they were not wearing masks or even clothes.
Ye Nanqi's mind was buzzing, and he couldn't imagine that Ye Mei might be like this, so he turned his head in panic, Shen Du kissed his forehead, and comforted him in a low voice.
When he almost closed his eyes, Ye Mei appeared.
After many years, this is the second time Ye Nanqi sees Ye Mei after seeing her in the movie theater that was about to close down last time.
She was wearing a snow-white dress, noble and pure, like a goddess in Western mythology. It's just that the face with picturesque eyebrows is as pale as snow, the corners of the mouth that used to smile are straightened, and the whole person looks almost dead.
Her appearance is still beautiful, but her soul is dead.
There was no movement anywhere, a dead silence.
Ye Nanqi's breathing became much lighter, and he murmured, "Sister..."
What happened next was unsightly.
After reading it, Ye Nanqi's mind was in a state of confusion and he was in a daze. He propped his forehead, and it took him a while to realize that his head was covered in cold sweat and it was difficult to breathe.
Shen Du looked at him nervously, seeing that he seemed to have regained his senses, he pushed away the computer and hugged him, trying to dispel the chill around him.
He felt that fate treated his Nan Nan really unfairly, why did he have to suffer one painful thing after another.
"Shen Du..."
It took Ye Nanqi a long time to choke up and say, "I'm so cold."
Shen Du picked him up and walked to the bathroom, kissed him lightly on the forehead, tenderly, and whispered softly: "Bubble hot water, relax, baby, don't think too much."
He put on hot water, watched Ye Nanqi enter the bathtub, and wanted to go back to contact some friends, but Ye Nanqi raised his hand and grabbed his sleeve: "Stay with me."
Shen Du was obedient and took a bath with him. A very gentleman upholds the principle of no evil, put on his pajamas, led him back to the bed, found a hair dryer, and patiently dried his hair before saying: "Go to sleep." , I watched from the side. Nannan, you are too tired. "
Ye Nanqi looked straight at him.
There was still that chill on his fingertips, only when he held Shen Du's hand did he feel that it wasn't so cold.
He is a fake sun created by the company.
It's a pity that if you want to spread sunshine into others' hearts, you must first have sunshine in your own heart, which he never had.
Shen Du is the real, shining, warm sun that belongs to him.
Ye Nanqi finished thinking in a daze. Seeing that Shen Du was about to leave, he quickly dragged him onto the bed, knelt and sat beside his body, kissed the side of his face with attachment, and pleaded in his eyes: "Shen Du, I want you."
Shen Du was invited by Ye Nanqi for the first time, but he was not at all happy. He stroked his head with his big hand, pressed him into his arms, and said, "Nan Nan, your current state..."
"I want you."
"Nannan..." Shen Du said helplessly, "How can I do anything with you in this state. If you want to cry, just cry in my arms."
After watching that video, Ye Nanqi obviously collapsed.
No matter how much mental preparations have been made, knowing what the loved ones have suffered, there will always be another kind of despair that makes people feel powerless when they see it with their own eyes.
Ye Nanqi lay in his arms without moving.
Shen Du waited patiently.
After waiting for a long time, wetness came from his shoulders, and Shen Du gently stroked his back comfortingly. When he calmed down, his pajamas were ripped off.
Shen Du looked up at him: "Huh?"
Ye Nanqi lowered his head and asked for a kiss. He didn't know if it was because he had cried, but his voice was slightly hoarse: "I want you."
Shen Du really couldn't do anything with him, so he simply hugged him and turned over, lying on the bed together, carefully observing Ye Nanqi's expression.
Ye Nanqi didn't seem to really want to have sex with him, but he was needed so much now that he couldn't live without him.
He covered the quilt, put his arms around Ye Nanqi, and said, "It's not that I want to be a gentleman. When you get better, you won't even be able to run away."
Ye Nanqi looked at him speechlessly.
He also understands what it means to be a giant of thinking and a dwarf of action.
He is so rogue in his mouth, and he is unambiguous in kissing and taking advantage. If he really wants to do it with real swords and guns, he has too many worries. Should I say that he is a gentleman and a gentleman, or a stinky hooligan with a wicked heart and no guts
When I was chasing him, I wished I could sleep with him every day, but when I got it, I didn't touch him anymore.
Ye Nanqi muttered a few times in his heart, but he felt relieved to be hugged. He looked at his phone and got a reply from Li Hengran. He was silent for a while, and tugged on Shen Du's collar.
Shen Du looked down at him.
Ye Nanqi looked a little pitiful: "I still want you."
The one I love is in my arms, boldly teasing him again and again, pretending that I am about to practice Zen, enlightenment, and become a Buddha, and I have been enduring it all the time.
Endured until now, finally can't bear it anymore.
