"Your mother said... Your grandma's 90th birthday will be held here in a few days."
Zhou Shengchen hummed indifferently: "Grandma's body and spirit are not very good. We didn't tell her about Wen Xing." Shi Yi nodded, saying that he understood her meaning.
"Tong Jiaren will come too," he told her what he thought of, "grandma likes her very much."
Shi Yi nodded again.
Before coming to Zhenjiang, Zhou Shengchen had told her that Jiaren Tong and Zhou Wenchuan were divorcing.
The two did not have too much entanglement. The divorce is also your wish, and Zhou Wenchuan is not obsessed with his and Tong Jiaren’s children. I don’t know if it is because of the investigation or Wang Man. He is very happy. It was agreed that the child should be supported by his mother after he was born, but he did not force him to come to Zhou's house.
"You were with her..." She stopped talking, not knowing what she wanted to ask.
The relationship between Jiaren Tong and Zhou's family is complicated.
She seems to have such a relationship with everyone. The marriage contract with Zhou Shengchen and Zhou Shengren, the husband and wife relationship with Zhou Wenchuan, and the blood relationship with Zhou Shengren...
"Me and her are as simple as I told you."
Shi Yi laughed: "I know."
She believed that Zhou Shengchen was a person, and if she had ever had a relationship, he would definitely tell herself.
For Tong Jiaren's initiative to give up the marriage contract, Shiyi can guess how much.
After all, Zhou Shengchen has always shown enthusiasm for scientific research since he entered university at the age of fourteen. If there are two sisters in a family, one uncle who likes to be in charge of the entire Zhou family, and one who likes the nameless Zhou Shengchen, then the family will definitely choose to win over the uncle who has the real power.
Zhou Shengchen took off her coat and put it on her arm, feeling that she was looking at herself: "The time is right."
"Um?"
"I have always been guilty of you," Zhou Shengchen suddenly lost his words. "Or more than guilt, I want to tell you the truth."
"Well, you said."
"After you met me, there were many dangers, even threatening your life," he sighed softly, "my relatives have done things that hurt you to some extent. For example, the ones you encountered Accident."
Shiyi guessed that this was all he was talking about.
She remained silent.
Perhaps Zhou Shengchen was really guilty. He didn't go any further and asked her, "Have you been afraid?"
She nodded slightly.
What she feared most was the gun battle in a foreign country, a scene she had never faced before. For the rest, she was isolated from the truth. For her, Wuzhen is the place where she has the best memories with Zhou Shengchen, and the first time she fell into the water, no one would doubt that it was a conspiracy...
Only the last time, when Zhou Shengchen took her away from Zhou's house, she was really scared.
He was not by her side, but she felt that the pain was so painful that she could die.
…
"If I tell you everything, you will find that this is the most terrifying place in the world from the first day you arrived at Zhou's house. Everyone here has a ghost in his heart, and everyone has a secret..."
Zhou Shengchen was silent for a while, stopped and turned to face her.
He is much taller than her. From this angle, it is naturally backlit. His eyebrows and his outline make her feel very relieved. Even if it is facing the sun, it will not give people any sense of haze.
Shi Yi is waiting for him to continue.
Zhou Shengchen suddenly remembered the first veritable date between herself and her.
That day, she looked at her inconceivably, smiled and circled around, and then told him in admiration, "The way you look today, it feels very suitable for your name."
Zhou Shengchen.
The name seemed perfect in her heart.
He remembered that on the gambling boat ten years ago, Xiaoren cried and slept in his arms after his mother died, always saying that he wanted revenge. Later, Xiaoren grew up and knew the truth. He knew that his mother was only because of the ghost status. After being found out by the family, he was forced to choose a very cruel way of suicide because he was afraid of facing the cruel family law. No longer mentioning any revenge, except for being somewhat introverted, it seems that he has forgotten about his mother a long time ago.
Because Xiaoren understands a truth:
It is very difficult for Zhou family members to be killed by outsiders. Only their relatives can really threaten them.
Zhou Shengchen.
The name does not have any beauty, but only represents all kinds of dangers.
"I have never wanted to say too clearly about the Zhou family, because..."
At the end of the mountain road, fallen leaves suddenly rose up.
He stopped talking.
There were more than two dozen people in their sight, divided into two in an orderly manner, walking from the top of the mountain to the bottom while cleaning the fallen leaves. They were all from the Zhou family.
When they saw Zhou Shengchen and Shiyi, they quickly stopped and called out the young master and Miss Shiyi.
Zhou Shengchen signaled them to continue sweeping the fallen leaves, and soon a car drove down from the turning place, and the car stopped by the side. The one who probed out was Xiaoren who had gone up the mountain one step before them.
"I arrived for more than an hour, and you are still here," he looked at Shiyi inexplicably from top to bottom, and sighed. "My sister is wearing high heels, and walking up from the mountain is very tired, right?"
The little boy raised an arc from the corner of his mouth, saying that he had something to go down the mountain, and he left soon.
The car disappeared from sight, and Zhou Shengchen looked down at her: "Are you tired?"
"A little bit," Shi Yi confessed honestly.
He bent slightly, hooked her legs and body, and hugged her sideways.
She looked around and whispered: "It's almost here, shall I go by myself?"
The people sweeping the fallen leaves around completely regarded the two people as air, and no one dared to look sideways. Only the sound of sweeping cleaning, this quietness made her feel a little embarrassed...
He didn't take it seriously, and he had already started walking up the mountain.
"Zhou Shengchen?" She leaned on him and looked up at him.
"Um?"
