"he is… ?"
Zhou Cheng didn't say a word, just looked at Yanliang silently, his eyes were almost... pity.
This made Yan Liang feel cold all over.
There seemed to be some guidance in the dark, and Yan Liang uncontrollably turned his head to look at the photo on the tombstone. Zhou Cheng's silence and the bitter wind on the mountain side intertwined into a net, and Yan Liang, who was trapped in it, had a tight voice. Almost broke: "Is he..."
"Jiang Shijun came to visit him the day before yesterday." A familiar female voice suddenly sounded, interrupting Yanliang's words------
Yanliang suddenly followed the sound and turned around, only to see Xu Ziqing who was climbing up the stairs.
The inexplicable vigilance that was stuffed in Yan Liang's chest was replaced by absurdity in an instant when he saw Xu Ziqing standing in front of him.
"What does Jiang Shijun's friends have to do with me? Is it worth asking Zhou Cheng to trick me over here?"
As Yanliang said, he couldn't help but cast a glance at Zhou Cheng who was at the side, but Zhou Cheng just lowered his head silently. Seeing this situation, Yanliang didn't even bother to smile. How could she have forgotten that this man has always been around Xu Ziqing, what else could she expect from him
Now there is no need to say any more, Yanliang turned around and left, but her footsteps were pinned in place by Xu Ziqing in the next moment ------
"You didn't notice that his eyebrows..." Xu Ziqing raised his chin and clicked on the photo on the tombstone, "Like a person?"
"..."
"A person...you and I are very familiar with each other."
As soon as the taxi came to a dangerous stop, Yan Liang paid the fare to the driver. The next second, he rushed out the door, ran all the way from the gate of Xu's house, passed through the front garden, and rushed straight into the house. He had just seen off the employees of the funeral company As soon as Aunt Liang returned home, she was bumped into by the anxious Yan Liang.
Aunt Liang managed to stand firm, and seeing Yan Liang who had just left a few hours ago, she asked in surprise, "Why are you back again?"
Panting, Yan Liang waved her hands, and before she could answer, she bypassed Aunt Liang and ran towards the stairs. Soon she came to the study room on the second floor, where the family who heard the will had gathered earlier, but the study room was empty at the moment, Yan Liang found the safe under the desk by memory, squatted there facing The combination lock froze, Yan Liang suddenly got up and ran to the door of the study, and shouted downstairs: "Aunt Liang! Call my mother over..."
As soon as the words fell, Yanliang saw her mother who had already walked to the middle of the stairs. As soon as the exhausted mother Yan looked up, she saw her eager daughter standing in the corridor on the second floor.
"Aunt Liang told me that you are back..." Mother Yan frowned suspiciously, "What's wrong?"
Yanliang didn't have time to explain, and asked directly: "What's the password for the safe?"
Yan's mother, who didn't get an answer, finally opened the safe for Yanliang. Seeing Yanliang hastily brought out all the documents in the safe, she finally couldn't help asking: "What are you looking for?"
Yanliang put the documents on the table in a hurry, looked down at random, seemed not interested in the content of each document, only focused on turning to the last page to check the last signature of the document, but after a while, Yanliang didn't Find what she's looking for.
Dozens of contracts had already been scattered on the desk, Yanliang didn't show any intention of raising his head, and while he was busy searching, he asked, "Mom, have you ever heard of a man named Song Jinpeng?"
"Song Jinpeng?" Mother Yan frowned for a while, then shook her head, "I've never heard of it."
The words "Song Jinpeng" engraved on the epitaph flashed through Yan Liang's mind, and he suddenly felt a headache, so that he paused before looking at the next document again: "I remember that I seem to have seen this name in Dad's place... Are the original texts of Dad’s documents kept in this safe?”
"Why don't you check in the company's archives? There should be electronic copies."
"That was many years ago. At that time, the company had not yet implemented electronic files."
Mother Yan wanted to help but she was powerless, "I have never interfered with the company's affairs,"
Mother Yan helped to find two documents, but she couldn't find the name "Song Jinpeng". At this moment, she suddenly came to her senses, put down the document and said, "You might as well ask Secretary Liu, she has worked for your father for decades. Maybe it can help you."
Secretary Liu
Until looking through the last contract, Yanliang still had nothing to gain, and had no choice but to give up.
Looking at the documents spread all over the table, Yan Liang didn't even have the time to sigh, she rallied and took out her mobile phone to look for Secretary Liu's number.
Since Secretary Liu was fired early by Xu Jinfu, he only left Yanliang a personal number for contact. Yanliang called, but was told by Secretary Liu's son that the old man had gone back to his hometown to visit relatives.
"Then when will she come back?"
"..."
The tone of Secretary Liu's son was obviously not friendly, and at the moment he was silent as if unwilling to answer, Yan Liang paused, he could only suppress his eagerness, and tried his best to ask a more gentle question: "Or... can you give me an answer?" Do you want to get your mother's number immediately?"
A sneer suddenly came from the other end, and then there was a sarcasm hidden in the voice: "My mother has served your Xu family all her life, but you fired her when she said she was fired, without showing any sympathy." .Now you are so anxious to find her...I'm sorry, I don't want you to disturb her old man's life."
"I'm really sorry, but I really have something urgent to..."
The other party made a "snap" and put down the phone directly.
It was two days later that Secretary Liu's whereabouts were finally found.
For the past two days, Yanliang still lived in the Xu family's mansion, and she was firm: she wanted to accompany her mother... Jiang Yunan no longer insisted.
And this day was also the day when Xu Jinfu was buried.
Yanliang stood beside her mother, facing the guests' "sorry" one after another, Yanliang didn't want to think about how she was feeling. As she was walking, she suddenly caught a glimpse of Secretary Li's figure from the corner of her eye. She was startled, subconsciously looked in Secretary Li's direction, and naturally saw Jiang Yunan's figure.
After all, Yanliang hasn't made their marriage public yet. Once Jiang Yunan appeared, the other guests had the right to treat him as the CEO of the company to visit the chairman's family, and the employees of the funeral company also treated him as a guest, handing Jiang Yunan a white chrysanthemum, and reminding Jiang Yunan at the same time , when the burial later, the guests are required to place the white chrysanthemums on the coffin in order.
Jiang Yunan didn't explain either, he walked towards Yanliang with a white chrysanthemum in his hand.
Jiang Yunan nodded slightly to Yanmu, while Yanmu smiled apologetically: "Yunan, after all, you haven't held a wedding yet, considering the rules of our hometown, we didn't ask you to wear sackcloth and filial piety."
"It doesn't matter."
Jiang Yunan's performance was very magnanimous, Yan's mother was very satisfied with his performance this time, seeing Yan Liang was staring at her husband, Yan's mother looked up at the acquaintances who were signing at the entrance in the distance, and said: "I'll go Let's talk for a while." Then he left, giving the two young people a space to get along alone.
Yanliang looked at Jiang Yunan's eyebrows and eyes, and was distracted for a few seconds before suddenly realizing that her mother had gone far away. Then she woke up, her mind was blank for a moment, she lowered her eyebrows to cover it up, and only asked him: "The company has been away for two days. How's the situation?"
Jiang Yunan shook his head.
"Haven't slept in the past few days, have you? Your face has lost a lot of weight." Jiang Yunan raised his hand and caressed her cheek pitifully.
Yanliang faced him, trying her best to maintain a smile, even though she was very forced. Until his gaze passed Jiang Yunan's shoulder unexpectedly, and he saw Xu Ziqing standing not far away, looking back at her—
"I heard Jiang Shijun called and asked Jiang Yunan to visit the grave together."
Jiang Shijun asked Jiang Yunan to come together... to visit the grave.
The cold smile disintegrated in an instant.
Fortunately, at this time, the phone ringing suddenly rang in the ears of the two of them. While the corners of Yan Liang's mouth stiffened, he lowered his head by the ringing, and under the cover of his hair, he secretly transitioned his expression, and then touched the phone from his pocket. Get out your phone.
Yanliang pointed at the cell phone, signaling to answer the call, and just walked two steps away from Jiang Yunan.
It was an unfamiliar number, Yanliang picked it up: "Hello?"
The other party called her by the usual title: "Second Miss."
Yanliang gave a sudden pause: "Secretary Liu?"
