Aunt Xu returned to Li City holding Xu Lingwei's urn. She became much older overnight, and her hair turned half white.
Those cloudy eyes became increasingly gloomy and desperate, and seemed to lose any luster. On the way back, she fainted several times.
Xia Yanxi felt extremely uncomfortable. A few days ago, she had a huge quarrel with Xu Lingwei. Such a vivid life bared its teeth and claws in front of her, and even demonstrated to her, but in the next second, it was separated from her.
The death of her mother and brother Yichen made her feel the fragility of life. Xu Lingwei gave Xia Yanxi another heavy blow this time.
Although she said she didn't want to have anything to do with Xu Lingwei anymore, she never wanted anything unexpected to happen to her.
With Xu Lingwei gone, Xia Yanxi had nothing to do for her. She could only take good care of Aunt Xu and organize a funeral for her in the future.
Kneeling in front of the mourning hall, Xia Yanxi came over one by one to express condolences to Xu Lingwei's relatives and friends in return.
Like Aunt Xu, her eyes were red and swollen from crying.
The whole person has lost a lot of weight in a short period of time.
After the funeral, Xia Yanxi and Aunt Xu were taken back to Qinyuan by Qiao Yanli.
Qiao Yanli looked at the slender Xia Yanxi. He felt heartbroken and asked Aunt Zhang to stew tonic for her and Aunt Xu, but neither of them had much appetite.
"Yan Xi, people cannot be resurrected after death. Xu Lingwei's death was an accident and was beyond your control. Don't hurt yourself too much." Qiao Yanli hugged Xia Yanxi into his arms and comforted her in a low voice.
Xia Yanxi raised her misty eyes and looked at Qiao Yanli sadly, "I want to ask you something, and you must answer me honestly."
Qiao Yanli nodded, "Okay."
"After Lingwei and I had a conflict that night, did you send someone to do anything to her? Yanli, if Ni Zaozao touches my hand, you will send him to prison. Lingwei has thoughts about you. , broke my heart again, I'm afraid you want to defend me against her... "
Qiao Yanli pursed her thin lips, "No, she hurt you, and I thought about giving her a small punishment, but then I felt that someone like her was not worthy of me doing something to her, so I didn't touch her. "
No one expected that such a tragedy would happen to her!
Xia Yanxi buried her face into Qiao Yanli's warm chest, hugged his waist tightly, and said in a hoarse voice, "I believe you."
Qiao Yanli stroked Xia Yanxi's long hair distressedly and sighed, "Don't think too much. You have been very tired these days. Go and have a good sleep first, okay?"
Xia Yanxi nodded with tears in her eyes, "Okay."
Qiao Yanli carried Xia Yanxi to the bedroom, put her on the bed, wiped away the tears that slipped out of her eyes, "Be good, sleep."
When he was about to stand up and leave, Xia Yanxi grabbed her arm and said, "Yanli, I feel like I'm really a bad guy. Everyone who has a relationship with me has left me one by one. I'm so scared. My brother and... What accident will happen to you because of me..."
Before he finished speaking, Qiao Yanli's bloodless lips were sealed tightly.
He held her haggard little face in his big hands, pressed it against her lips, and said in a low voice, "Little fool, I won't let you say such stupid things again."
"Qiao Yanli, I'm really scared, so scared..."
Qiao Yanli kissed away the tears that slipped from her eyes. He took off his shoes, lay beside her, and held her tightly in his arms. "I will always be by your side. Don't be afraid. Be good and go to sleep!"
