Indistinctly, Tang Susu felt as if he heard who Shi Chengxuan was talking to. His voice was erratic, more like her imagination.
At this time, outside their guest room, with the door ajar, Shi Chengxuan was talking with someone on his mobile phone.
"Have you found the whereabouts of the person I asked you to check?"
Hearing his question, the person on the other end of the phone said lightly, "I got it, she took the train to Fenglin at 2:00 pm yesterday, arrived at the station at 9:30 pm, and stayed at a cheap hotel two stops away, oh , by the way, the room number is 205."
"Don't talk nonsense." Shi Chengxuan's voice was cold.
The left and right hands that were typing on the keyboard paused, and pulled out a not very sincere smile. He did not look at the hands-free mobile phone on the table, and kept his eyes on the information on the computer screen.
"Qin Xue, 23 years old, graduated from Qinchuan University, her ancestral home is in Qinchuan Province. Her parents died when she was seven years old, and she was sent to an orphanage with her sister Qin Zheng, who was four years younger than her. Two years later, she and Her younger sisters were adopted by two families, but her adoptive parents died unexpectedly seven years ago. Since Qin Zheng lives in Fenglin with her adoptive parents, Qin Xue should come to Fenglin this time to visit her younger sister."
"That's all? Does she have any specialties, in painting and calligraphy?"
She gently slid the mouse with her left and right fingers, and after a while, she added: "Qin Xue plays the guzheng very well, and her painting and calligraphy are also good, and she even won some provincial and municipal painting and calligraphy awards. But she doesn't seem to have studied these systematically. She was taught by her adoptive parents during her lifetime."
Pulling the interface to the bottom, looking at the characters above for a while, frowning, "Here is a piece of her work that won a domestic award, and I will send it to you later."
Shi Chengxuan hummed and hung up the phone.
It didn't take long for the photos to be passed around.
It was a figure painting, and it was a battlefield. The cinnabar and thick ink set off each other. The bleak and chilling atmosphere of the battlefield was vivid on the paper. The general held the reins in one hand, leaned forward, chin slightly retracted, his eyes looked straight ahead, and when he looked at those eyes, he seemed to be able to see a mountain of swords and a sea of blood.
None of these matters. What matters is that the general looks a lot like Shi Chengxuan.
And this painting, Shi Chengxuan had seen in a dream, but at that time, he was not a bystander, but experienced it himself.
As funny as it sounds, he may have dreamed of his past life.
That dream was too clear. It recorded all his experiences from childhood to adulthood in his previous life, including marriage...
In the dream, his fiancee was called Qin Xue, and they grew up together as childhood sweethearts. In the year he was supposed to get married, he went on an expedition. Before leaving, he gave her a human-shaped jade egg as a token of love, and promised to marry her when he returned.
A year later, when the war ended, when he led his troops back to Beijing, he discovered that Qin Xue had been forced to marry someone else.
Even if the dream had woken up, he still couldn't forget the despair and anger in his heart after hearing the news.
Later, the dream became chaotic, sometimes it was a battle in the capital, and sometimes it was a beacon fire in the frontier.
About a few years later, he was recalled to the capital by an edict from the new emperor, and was subsequently imprisoned for treason. After endless punishment and interrogation, he ushered in his death.
Before she died, Qin Xue came to see him off, and they made up a glass of wine that they had no chance to drink. Then, he saw her spit out blood and poured it down in front of him.
The experience in the dream was too heart-wrenching, even if Shi Chengxuan knew clearly that the person in the dream was not him, he was still inevitably affected.
And his fiancee in his previous life looked exactly like the girl named Qin Xue he saw yesterday, and the other party even had the jade egg he gave away.
As for this painting, it was the last gift Qin Xue gave him after he returned to Beijing that year.
Shi Chengxuan looked down at the painting for a long time, his finger paused for a few seconds on the delete interface, and finally moved away.
He put away the phone and went back to the room.
He stood in front of the bed, Tang Susu on the bed closed his eyes and breathed lightly. He reached out and touched her face lightly, bent down, froze for a moment before his lips touched her, and then slowly backed away.
The scene of Qin Xue falling in front of him appeared again. It was so painful, but in the end he was smiling.
In the end, Shi Chengxuan just squatted by the bed, held her hand, and asked her softly, "Susu, if I do something that makes you unhappy, will you forgive me?"
There was no answer, only the sound of very shallow breathing sounded regularly.
Won't-
Tang Susu heard his question, but she still didn't wake up, but she gave the answer in her heart.
During the three days, except for the rain on the second day, which disrupted the schedule, the employees of Dijiang had a great time for the other two days.
On the way back, there were still people in the car laughing and joking about the food and specialties of Qiongshan City.
Only Shi Chengxuan and Tang Susu, who were sitting in the front seats, remained silent.
Tang Susu sat by the window, her head was against the car window, her eyes were half down, no one knew whether she was looking at the scenery outside the window or was in a daze, and there was no communication between the two.
Secretary Wu was sitting next to the aisle. He was the first to discover that the atmosphere between the two was not right. He stole a few glances over there seemingly inadvertently, feeling a little worried.
After Tang Susu and Shi Chengxuan were together, even if it was because of the Chu family's relationship, the two broke up once, and the atmosphere between them had never been so stiff.
He found that it wasn't just Tang Susu's indifference, the boss didn't seem to mean to coax her. He frowned and thought for a long time, but he didn't expect that what happened before would make the relationship between the two deteriorate so quickly.
Secretary Wu didn't figure it out until Tang Susu got off the bus.
After the bus returned to Fenglin City, it drove around the city and sent the employees back to their respective homes. Outside Tang Susu's residential area, she got out of the car carrying her suitcase, and Shi Chengxuan followed, but did not carry his suitcase.
The bus quickly left, Tang Susu walked into the community in silence, Shi Chengxuan stepped forward to pick up the suitcase and followed behind.
Going all the way to the door of the house, Tang Susu stopped. Instead of getting the key, she turned around and looked at the man standing behind her.
"Susu." Shi Chengxuan called out to her.
Tang Susu closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, there was only a cold expression, "What do you want to say?"
"Let's be apart for a while, okay?"
Okay
She wanted to say something bad, but when Shi Chengxuan said this, he didn't give her any room to refuse.
She knew this man too well. They lived together for nearly two years and never separated. Even if he made a move, she knew the deep meaning.
In the end, Tang Susu didn't say anything, just took out the key from his pocket, turned around to open the door, and when he entered the door, he turned his back to him and said, "Find a time and let someone remove your things."
