in the name of painting

what?

What did they do wrong?

Why should the grievances of the previous generation be borne by this generation.

***

The light in Ling Luo's room was on. This was originally her and Si Wangqiu's bedroom, but since they moved to this villa after getting married, Si Wangqiu has never been here once.

The interior of the room is all pure white, with a minimalist style. There is only one Simmons bed, two bed cabinets, and a badly damaged Chinese painting on the wall.

The painting was glued together by torn pieces, dark brown scorching marks could still be seen at the joints, and the white paper was very abrupt, which was incompatible with the pleasant scene of two butterflies playing with flowers in the painting.

Ling Luo stood in front of the painting and answered a phone call:

"Boss Xiao Ling, the police are investigating the incident five years ago again, what should we do?"

The person who called was Ling's father's right-hand man, A Qiang. He was responsible for all the aftermath. After Ling's father passed away last year, A Qiang switched to work for Ling Luo.

"Don't worry about it." Ling Luo explained flatly.

Ah Qiang was a little surprised, "Aren't we going to do something? Just in case we find out..."

"If you find it, you will find it." Ling Luo interrupted, with a cold attitude, "What should come will always come, and you can't avoid it."

After hanging up the phone, Ling Luo turned his eyes back to the painting and remained silent for a long time.

When Ling Luo chose to hang this painting in the room blatantly, she was ready to be discovered, or in other words, she hoped that Si Wangqiu would find it.That person's obsession with Xia Jinnian's love should recognize her paintings at a glance.

Ling Luo thought, when Si Wangqiu is willing to walk into this room one day, he will confess everything to him.

But Si Wangqiu had never been here, and he allowed Ling Luo to be a prison in this room, not giving her a chance to redeem herself.

You are so unfeeling, no wonder I am cold-blooded.

···

"Mother."

Si Huanian's weak voice came from the door.

Ling Luo looked over in a blink of an eye, "Are you still dizzy?"

Si Huanian shook his head, stared at the painting in front of Ling Luo, bit his lip, and asked this question:

"Mom, Aunt Xia Jinnian, where are you in Sucheng now?"

Wu, she wants to know that this is going to be crazy, no matter how many reasons her mother has, what she does is wrong.

Ling Luo frowned, "What? Me and that little bitch, do you choose to help her?"

After Si Huanian reacted, he realized who the little bitch Ling Luo was talking about was.She didn't have time to ask Ling Luo how she knew about her and Wu, but directly said angrily: "Don't talk about her like that!"

It was rare for her daughter to get angry with herself, and Ling Luo was not angry either.

She raised her lips, and the playfulness in her eyes became more obvious, "Xia Jinnian is at the Central Hospital in Sucheng, why don't you tell her yourself?"

Ling Luo's suggestion is not innocuous.

It's up to you to tell your lover that all the pain she experienced was caused by your mother, and you see if she wants to continue to be with you.

Si Hua was so young that he was trembling all over, and for the first time felt hatred for his mother.

how can she...

How dare I...

***

the next day.

The news leaked out of nowhere: The police found clues to the traditional Chinese painting that disappeared with Xia Jinnian, and it quickly spread in the art circle.

Although Xia Jinnian has been missing for 5 years, his reputation is still there. Many people are paying close attention to the progress of the case, and they are also curious about how the Xia family, whose relationship with Xia Jinnian has been constantly cut and messed up, will express their stance this time.

Xia's living room.

Xia's mother was full of worries, hesitated a few times, and then mentioned it to Xia's father, "Old Xia, look at Jinnian..."

Hearing his daughter's name, Father Xia didn't get angry as usual, but instead replied, "I've spoken to my friends in the police station, and they've sent more people to investigate the case."

Mother Xia was pleasantly surprised, "Old Xia, have you let go of what happened in Jinnian?"

Father Xia said lightly, "It's been so many years, it's over when it's over."

Xia's mother wept with joy, "Hey, hey, do you know? I asked for a lottery in the early years, saying that my daughter will suffer a lot in middle age, but she will survive it, and the rest of her life will be smooth."

Xia's father was noncommittal. Xia Jinnian had been missing for so many years, and whether he could be found alive, he didn't have much hope in his heart, but Wu had great potential, so he didn't care how much he liked her in front of that child.

***

At the same time, a hidden room in the basement of Ling's Building.

Several well-built men were quickly packing their luggage.

"Brother Qiang, we really ran away this time."

"Run, Boss Ling is dead, and Boss Xiao Ling doesn't want to care about us anymore, if you don't run now, when will you run?"

"But aren't we on the same line as Boss Xiaoling? She doesn't care about us, nor does she..."

"Stop talking nonsense, she's looking for death, so why don't we stay with her? Hurry up and tidy up!"

after an hour.

The assistant reported to Ling Luo the news that Aqiang and others had escaped from the Ling family.

After hearing this, Ling Luo's expression didn't fluctuate at all, as if everything was expected.

She took a sip of coffee slowly, and said to her assistant, "I asked you to prepare the company equity change agreement, is it ready?"

"It's done. As long as Ms. Si Huanian finally signs, the transfer agreement will take effect."

Ling Luo nodded, "The old fellows on the board should clean up."

"The shares of all major shareholders have been withdrawn. In the future, Miss Si Huanian will have the final say on the company."

"Ah."

Ling Luo relaxed and leaned back in the chair.

She started paving the way for Si Huanian very early on, and perhaps she also knew that the things she did would eventually have retribution.

The original plan was to wait for Si Huanian to graduate, and take her to familiarize herself with the company's procedures, but depending on the situation, that time could not be waited for.

"Assistant Ye." Ling Luo said again, "You are a smart person, you should know the meaning of what I do. I will pay you three times the salary. When Si Hua comes to my position in the future, you should help her more."

Assistant Ye still looked calm on the surface, but there was a little sadness in his heart, "Mr. Ling, if you don't mention this, I will do the same."

Assistant Ye has been with Ling Luo for more than ten years, and Ling Luo chose her to be by his side all the time, not only because of her outstanding ability, but more importantly, because of her loyalty to the Ling family.

"Okay, go get busy."

After Assistant Ye left, Ling Luo walked to the French window.

The high and low buildings and streetscapes in the business district outside the window look like iron monsters baring their claws.How many of them are waiting for an opportunity in the dark, waiting to crush and swallow Ling.

Can my daughter handle it...

Ling Luo was a little worried, but thought about it in a blink of an eye:

It's okay, and the Si family will help her behind, and Si Wangqiu will never let others bully his daughter when he is not around.

***

Sioux City.

Si Huanian flew over from Beijing on the first flight, alone, and she was still not ready to tell Wu her.

The taxi drove past Gaoqiao Ancient Street, where she had just come a few months ago, and stopped in front of a modern hospital after walking less than 10 kilometers.

Sioux City Central Hospital.

According to the driver, this is the top three hospitals in Sioux City.

After hearing this, Si Huanian felt a little less guilty.My mother has strong financial resources, so she should not be stingy with Aunt Jinnian's hospitalization expenses if she chooses such a hospital.

Things are unpredictable.

Si Huanian went to the information desk.

"Hi, may I ask which ward does a patient named Xia Jinnian live in in your hospital?"

The staff confirmed the information, tapped their fingers in front of the computer for a while, and replied, "There is no patient named Xia Jinnian in our hospital, did you remember it wrong?"

Si Huanian was taken aback, thought for a while, and then changed his words, "Excuse me, is there any patient in your hospital who became a vegetative state due to a car accident?"

After hearing this, the staff took a special look at Si Huanian, "You're talking about Xia Mei, right? The neurology inpatient department on the 6th floor, go north to the innermost ward."

In order to conceal Xia Jinnian's identity, Ling Luo used Xia Mei's pseudonym.

A vegetative person has lived in the central hospital for 5 years, and the hospitalization fee is enough, but no family members have ever seen it. Many doctors and nurses will use this incident as a talk after dinner.

After Si Huanian left, the two staff members at the inquiry office whispered:

"Hey, you said that girl is Xia Mei's family?"

"It should be. It might be her daughter depending on her age."

"No way, the daughter doesn't even know her mother's name?"

"What kind of family doesn't have it? You see, she is just like Xia Mei, she is pretty."

"That was when Xia Mei was just sent here. Look at how haggard she has become in the past few years. The nurse hired for her was not very responsible. I heard that if a nurse hadn't gone to make rounds last time, Xia Mei's The feeding tube fell off all day, and no one found it.”

"That's really thrilling..."

···

Si Huanian didn't hear the discussion behind, she walked into the elevator quickly, went straight to the sixth floor, and stopped in front of a ward with the patient's name "Xia Mei" on the door.

The door is made of wood, with a piece of frosted glass embedded, the light and shadow on it are mottled, and the inside cannot be seen clearly.

Si Huanian took a deep breath, bent his wrist, opened the door and walked in.

This is a single ward facing north. Less than ten meters outside the window is the wall of the second floor. Even if the curtains are wide open, there is not much sunlight in, which is a bit depressing.

The room was heated, but the winter in the south was cold and cold, and Si Huanian wore a lot of clothes, so he could still feel the coolness.

Walking through a small bathroom, a hospital bed appeared in front of me.

As soon as the person lying on the bed came into view, Si Huanian instantly covered his mouth with his hands to keep himself from screaming.

She couldn't believe it, the sallow complexion in front of her, thin as a haggard woman, was the graceful and beautiful Aunt Jinnian in the photo of a famous alumnus of Meida University.

Xia Jinnian closed his eyes, his eye sockets were sunken, three tubes were inserted into his thin body, his skin was faintly bruised, and there were obvious red bed sores on his elbows and heels exposed outside the hospital gown, and his muscles seemed to be shrinking into his bones Same.

The outpatient records at the head of the bed stopped at the latest page, on which there were flamboyantly written: malnutrition, stage II pressure sores, muscle contractures, mild lung infection.

Si Huanian exhausted all the oxygen in his body before removing his hand and whimpering.

oh my god

Si Huanian knelt down in front of the hospital bed, the tears that he thought had been shed came gushing out again.

What is she going to do...

"Ding"

A text message pops up on the phone:

【Baby Wu: Niannian, why didn't you reply to yesterday's news?How is your body?Still uncomfortable? 】

Si Huanian feels that if there is hell in this world, then it is what it looks like right now.

The author has something to say: No accidents, the next chapter can be entered and the conflict broke out. What do you think?

☆, countdown

Si Huanian almost escaped from the hospital, but when she got to the door, she turned back abruptly and changed Xia Jinnian to a high-class ward, and at the doctor's suggestion, she found a new ward with rich qualifications and experience. Care workers.

She knew that it was too late to do this now, but she hoped that Wu would see it, and it would be good to relieve one percent of her anger.

***

In Lin County, Beijing City, a mutton steamed bun shop opened next to the factory.

The lunch break was over, and the workers all went back to work. Apart from the boss, there was only a fat man with a shiny face. One of them ordered two large bowls of haggis soup and ate to his heart's content.

The shop owner stood at the door, trying to wipe off the thick oily stains on the glass that made it difficult to see the slogan, but he probably chose the wrong rag, and the glass became even dirtier when he wiped it with his hand.

The store owner wiped and sighed, "Oh, if someone from the health bureau sees this, my license must not be revoked..."

As soon as I had this idea in my head, a police siren sounded suddenly on the quiet street. In less than two or three seconds from far to near, two police cars, one in front of the other, quickly surrounded the small haggis shop.

The store owner stood there looking stupid, has the Health Bureau already had such a big show now?

As soon as the car stopped, a few policemen in plain clothes ran down, jumped over the boss, entered the store and picked up the fat man who was drinking soup.

Before the fat man swallowed the haggis, he was handcuffed, "Isn't it, police officer, I'm just a fake painting seller, so arresting me is such a motivator."

The plainclothes policeman didn't bother him, "Wu Wei, we suspect that you have a significant connection with a missing persons case, and you are now under arrest."

"What?"

Fatty Wu almost vomited the soup he just drank, what kind of invincible giant pot is this.

When he was taken back to the Beijing Police Station, Fatty Wu still kept saying "wronged".Police officer Wang took out the photo of [Butterfly Transformation] and asked him, and Fatty Wu immediately confessed honestly:

"Officer, I really took that photo by accident. It has nothing to do with me."

"Where was it filmed?"

"Which parking lot should it be? I was squatting near the art competition venue. I happened to meet a woman putting paintings in the trunk, so I pressed the shutter."

"Where is the original photo?"

"It's in my camera's memory card, but it's been so long, I should have deleted it long ago."

Fatty Wu handed over the memory card, and it was true that the photo was gone, but Police Officer Wang still handed the card to the technical department, and restoring the photo became a top priority.

Xia Jinnian couldn't find any activity records in Beijing that year. It seemed that after getting off the plane, he disappeared out of thin air. It said that no one had participated in the erasure of the traces of the operation. Officer Wang didn't believe it.

And the photo of Fatty Wu is very likely to be the key clue to find the mastermind behind the scenes.

***

In the evening, Wu went to her residence.

She was alone at home, and she was in a mess.

I don't know how the mother's affairs are going, Si Huanian lost contact for another day for no reason.

The last time we left at the police station, she said she was not feeling well and went back first. Could it be that she was sick?

She thought about it and blamed herself, why was she such a bastard at that time, only thinking about her own affairs, and ignoring her years.

"Beep-beep--"

She called Si Huanian again, but this time, the phone rang outside the house.

She was pleasantly surprised, and quickly got up to open the door. Sure enough, Si Huanian was standing outside.

Before Wu could be happy, she immediately realized that Si Huanian was not in the right state.

Si Huanian didn't rush over with a smile as usual, but kept his head down and didn't speak.

Wu she gently took Si Huanian into the door, with a concerned tone, "Niannian, what's the matter?"

Si Huanian lowered his head even more, and his shoulders began to tremble uncontrollably.

She was so distressed when she saw it, she reached out and hugged Si Huanian into her arms, comforted her on the back over and over again, and patted her lightly, "Don't be afraid, what happened? I'm here."

This "I'm here" seemed to open the valve of Si Huanian's tears.

No, you'll be gone soon.

And the warmth that makes you nostalgic on your body, the tenderness that only belongs to me, isn't it, it won't be there anymore...

Si Huanian cried bitterly in his lover's arms, but he still didn't dare to raise his arms to hug her back.

Wu hugged her arms even tighter, "What's wrong with Niannian? Don't cry, are you having trouble with your family again?"

Si Huanian in his arms didn't respond, but cried more and more, until finally he couldn't even stand still.

She hurriedly hugged Si Huanian to the sofa and sat down. Just as she was about to stand up and pour her a glass of water, she realized that Si Huanian was holding her wrist tightly.

"do not go."

This was the first sentence Si Huanian said when he entered the door, his voice was soft and weak, his eyes were almost begging.

Wu immediately sat back, "I won't leave, I'll be right here."

Si Huanian curled up and retracted into her arms again. She closed her eyes, gently rubbed her cheek against her neck, took a deep breath, and tried her best to remember.

It seems that every caress now will become the last.

Si Huanian's sadness poured out through tears, his lips parted and closed several times, but he still couldn't tell Wu the truth, she didn't dare, and she couldn't bear it either.

What should I do, I can't bear you.

Si Huanian murmured in his heart over and over again:

Wu, she, I can't bear you.

···

Si Huanian was picked up by the butler He Bo in the end. Before leaving, she looked back at her Wu again. The look in her eyes was extremely complicated, which made her feel very uneasy.

Seeing that Si Huanian got into the car, she stopped Uncle He, "May I ask, what happened at Niannian's house?"

Bo He closed the car door for Si Huanian before walking up to her. He didn't answer the question, but handed her an envelope, "Miss Wu, my wife invites you to visit us at home the morning after tomorrow. Here is the address. We are waiting for you." .”

Wu took the envelope and watched the car go away.

The envelope was obviously very thin, but for some reason, it felt heavy in the hand.

***

Early the next morning, Xiao Li, who was on duty in the technical department of the police station, yelled, "It's recovered!"

Officer Wang, who was catching up on sleep on the sofa, woke up and asked in a daze, "What recovered?"

"The data has been recovered, and the photo from five years ago has been found!"

Officer Wang quickly got up, "Let me see."

Sure enough, the wait was worth it. Fatty Wu's photo not only captured Xia Jinnian's painting in the trunk, but also the license plate number of her car.

"Quick, check this license plate."

Xiao Li opened the system to search, and after a while, the vehicle information popped up, "It's a car from a car rental company, and it was scrapped five years ago."

"Scrap? This car looks quite new." Officer Wang frowned and said, "You call up the company's address and the information of the person in charge, and I'll take a look."

Officer Wang acted resolutely, and went to find out the facts of the year that morning.

"There is this car. It was destroyed at the time, so it was disposed of."

"Crash it?"

"Yeah, it was a car accident. When it was sent back, a large piece was dented in the left compartment."

"Why didn't you report such a serious accident?"

"The renter wanted to keep it private, so he didn't report it."

"The car crashed like this, is the renter okay?"

"I heard that she was only slightly injured. Her boyfriend came to help her pay the compensation, which is quite generous. The money she lost was used to buy a new car, and we didn't pursue it any further."

"Wait." Police officer Wang quickly realized something was wrong, "The person who came to pay the compensation was not the person who rented the car at that time?"

"No, it's the boyfriend of the car renter."

"The renter was only slightly injured, and that boyfriend told you?"

"Yes."

Police officer Wang's mind was spinning quickly. No accident, Xia Jinnian was the car renter. On the way to submit the work, he was involved in a car accident and disappeared. The person who claimed to be her boyfriend and helped her pay the compensation was the one who disappeared with her. Prisoners who are directly involved.

"Do you still have the information of the car renter back then? And the boyfriend, do you have records here?"

"Let me look for it."

Police officer Wang made a prediction in the direction of [traffic hit-and-run], thinking that he was willing to spend so much effort to conceal the evidence, and almost deceived the police. Maybe it was a rich and powerful man who committed the crime.

He was only half right, and things were far more complicated than he had imagined.

The person in charge of the car rental company searched for a while in front of the computer,

"Here, there are only these two scanned copies, one is the car rental contract signed at that time, and the other is the accident handling receipt."

Officer Wang glanced at the contract quickly, and sure enough, the lessee had Xia Jinnian's signature.He took a closer look at another document,

"He only left his name and contact number?"

"correct."

"How did he pay the compensation?"

"Using cash, I am very impressed with this. He took a large bag of money and counted it at the end. There were tens of thousands more. He said that he wanted us to go through the process faster, so we didn't have to look for it."

Police officer Wang's heart was full of alarm bells, because he didn't want to reveal his identity. Sure enough, when he asked the police to check, the phone number was empty, and the name was probably fake.

Officer Wang looked up at the camera in the office, "He came here to go through the formalities, is the surveillance video still there?"

"That was monitored five years ago, and it was deleted long ago."

Officer Wang smiled, and called the police station again, "Hey, Xiao Li, I have recovered data from you again..."

Xiao Li lived up to expectations, and tuned out the video again. As soon as the man in the surveillance screen appeared, another old policeman in the police station recognized him:

"Isn't this Aqiang under Ling Jianguo?"

Officer Wang said happily, "You know him?"

"Of course I know each other. We have met many times. He is usually involved in the shady things under the Ling family. I heard that after Ling Jianguo passed away, Ah Qiang went to his daughter to ask for a living."

The case progressed rapidly, and not long after, Police Officer Wang received the news that Aqiang had absconded.

"Issuing a wanted warrant and conducting a nationwide search for the suspect."

***

Si family villa.

As soon as the police issued the arrest warrant for Ah Qiang, Ling Luo received the news.

Still the same, Ling Luo chose not to respond, not to resist, and silently waited for the result to come.

The portraits of a family of three on the living room wall are in the same color and spotless.Holding a glass of red wine, Ling Luo stood quietly in front of the painting.

Why can this family gather neatly only in the painting.

"Uncle He." Ling Luo opened his mouth and ordered, "Call Si Wangqiu to come back."

Uncle He hesitated, "But sir... maybe he won't listen."

"Just tell him that I have news about Xia Jinnian, and he will come back."

Ling Luo raised his hand and drank the red wine in the glass in one gulp.

It is really sad and ridiculous to rely on such a method to get her husband back.

Forget it, it's almost over...

***

"Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock..."

The countdown bell rang quietly, and there were only a few steps left on the road before the cliff, with no way back, no redemption.

The author has something to say: the next chapter may kill all my brain cells, nervous...

☆, detonate

Two days later, she went to Si's house by car as scheduled.

Her mood was a bit complicated, and Si Huanian hadn't responded to messages for the past two days, and Wu still didn't know what she was going to face next.

The Spring Festival is approaching, and the atmosphere of the New Year can be seen everywhere in Beijing outside the car window.

The red lanterns on both sides of the street formed a festive long river, and then stopped abruptly at the entrance of the villa area, as if there was no intention to welcome the New Year here.

Wu she got out of the car with a painting, and the butler He Bo was already waiting there.

"Miss Wu, come with me."

This was Wu's first visit to Si Huanian's house. Even though she had mentally prepared herself and pushed open the door of the villa, the magnificent interior scene in front of her still shocked her.

Four white gold-inlaid marble columns set off a spacious reception space about 8 meters high, where you can directly see the first, second and second floors of the villa.

Under the golden ring embedded in the roof, a giant crystal lamp hangs down, echoing the sunlight that penetrates through the large European windows, and is full of brilliance.

Ling Luo was dressed in a long black dress, with a noble and elegant figure, as he walked down the winding marble staircase.

Walking in front of her, Ling Luo made an inexplicable smile, her lips were as red as blood, "You're here, and you brought a gift?"

She concealed the unease in her heart, bowed and handed the things to Ling Luo, her voice was humble and polite, "It's the first time I come to the door, so I'm sorry to bother you, this is my kindness from this junior, please don't dislike me."

Ling Luo took the gift and tore open the package in front of her. Seeing the painting inside, Ling Luo trembled slightly.

In the delicately framed picture frame, there are large tracts of tea flowers, bright pink and white, almost the same as the one Si Wangqiu gave him when they first met.

Seeing that Ling Luo remained silent, Wu felt nervous and quickly explained, "I heard from Niannian that you like Tumi flowers, because the flowering season is past now, so I want to draw a picture for you..."

Only then did Ling Luo look away from the painting, and said with a smile, "Thank you, I like it very much."

As he spoke, he put the painting away against the wall. Whether it was intentional or not, the picture was facing the gate of the villa, and he could see it as soon as he entered.

Ling Luo: "Sit down first, and everyone will come later."

Wu took up the sofa and sat down shallowly, "Anyone else wants to come?"

Ling Luo turned around and looked at another oil painting on the wall, in which there was a handsome husband, a sweet daughter, and the self who still had hope for the future.

Ling Luo: "Of course we have to wait until all three of us are here."

She also looked at the painting, and the first thing she saw was her year.

When she was a child, Si Huanian was also so soft, cute and lovable, she looked at her softly.

Immediately afterwards, Wu looked at the other people in the picture.

Beside Ling Luo, who was ten years younger, Wu's pupils trembled slightly. This handsome and tall man, is that unshaven, slovenly alcoholic uncle Si Wangqiu? !

Before Wu could lose her composure, the alcoholic uncle himself rushed in through the gate.

Si Wangqiu didn't see her, nor did she see Ling Luo's tea flower painting at the door, but walked directly in front of Ling Luo, and asked:

"Have you heard from her?"

Si Wangqiu's words were like a whip being whipped in the face. Even though Ling Luo had become a habit of being humiliated over the years, her heart still hurt every time.

Ling Luo's fingernails were slightly caught in the palm of his hand, and he ignored Si Wangqiu, but turned around and told Uncle He, "Call Si Huanian over, and then you can go down, the three of us, let's have a good chat with this distinguished guest."

It was only then that Si Wangqiu noticed her, "Why are you here?"

Wu looked embarrassed and didn't know how to answer.

As soon as Si Wangqiu and Ling Luo met, their swords were on the verge of breaking out. She was a junior and an outsider, and she was caught between the two of them, feeling like she was sitting on pins and needles.

Thinking of something suddenly, Wu's body froze.

Could it be that Ling Luo knew about himself and Si Huanian? !

Calling people over this time, is it to...

Thinking of Wu, she became even more nervous. She hurriedly looked towards the direction of the stairs, and saw Si Huanian's face was pale, and he walked down the steps, with his head lowered, and his whole body was listless. She exchanged glances.

Ling Luo sat down on the sofa opposite Wu and greeted everyone: "Sit down, I have something to say."

The location you choose is very delicate.

Si Wangqiu sat next to her Wu, away from Ling Luo; while Si Huanian sat next to her Wu, away from her Wu.

The four of them looked at each other from a distance across the large coffee table.

The uneasiness in her heart is getting stronger and stronger, it must be because of herself, Ling Luo put pressure on Si Huanian.

"Let me introduce you first." Ling Luo said, "You may know each other, but you are not familiar with each other."

The opening remarks are unusual, with hidden sharpness.

Ling Luo: "Si Wangqiu, this is Wu She, Xia Jinnian's daughter."

Si Wangqiu suddenly turned his head to look at her, the shock in his eyes was beyond words, she turned out to be...

No wonder, no wonder when I rescued her in the Philippines, I felt so familiar, no wonder I could see Jinnian's usual Yu Bai in her paintings...

Wu was surprised, knowing that I am Xia Jinnian's daughter, why is Director Si so excited?Did he know his mother?

The corner of Ling Luo's mouth revealed a touch of contempt, and he directly opened his mouth to explain Wu's confusion:

"Wu, this is my husband, Si Wangqiu, who has always been your mother's steadfast pursuer."

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the living room froze instantly.

Wu's lips parted slightly, and her pupils trembled sharply. The impact of this incident was too great, and she needed some time to relax.

But Ling Luo didn't give her much time to digest, and continued, "As for how determined Si Wangqiu is? Let me give you an example. Do you know that our daughter's name was chosen by Si Wangqiu? And don't you know?" You know, what does the name mean?"

Si Wangqiu interrupted coldly, "Don't talk nonsense in front of the children!"

"I'm talking nonsense? You dare to do it, but you dare not admit it?" Ling Luo mocked ruthlessly, with a sharp voice, "Si Huanian, taken from [Jinse Unprovoked Fifty Strings, One String and One Pillar of Sihua Nian], Wu she, What year do you think he is thinking about here?!"

"Is it Xia Jinnian's year? Or the year spent with Xia Jinnian?!"

Wu's head buzzed, Ling Luo made her stupid to ask this question...

The year of the year, yes, the year related to mother? !

"Enough!" Si Wangqiu couldn't sit still anymore, stood up and shouted, "Shut up!"

How could Ling Luo shut up, "Are you embarrassed now? She happened to be here today, so why don't you tell her about the incident between you and her mother back then?"

Si Wangqiu's breathing became more and more urgent, "I tell you to shut up!"

Ling Luo didn't care about him. The anger he had suppressed for a long time now vented, "Si Wangqiu, you can only yell at me. What else do you want? By the way, you can still play disappearing and drink. Why haven't you been drunk to death in these years?"

Ling Luo said one sentence after another, each sentence was more ruthless than the other sentence, without showing any sympathy.

Si Wangqiu stared at Ling Luo, his eyes were bloodshot, the alcohol in his body rushed to his brain, and finally turned into a substantial madness at a certain moment.He swung his arms wide, grabbed a half-person-high blue and white porcelain vase in the living room, and threw it at Ling Luo.

"Ah!" Si Huanian screamed.

Before the vase fell, she instinctively rushed towards Si Huanian.

She was sitting too close to Ling Luo, throwing the porcelain bottle like this could easily hurt her by mistake.

"careful!"

The moment she Wu pressed Si Huanian's head in her arms, there was a crackling sound behind her.

Maybe the bottle was too heavy, or maybe Si Wangqiu pulled back at the last moment, and the porcelain bottle didn't hit Ling Luo, but fell on the marble coffee table in the middle.

"Whoa!"

The porcelain was torn apart, and the fragments did not stop, but continued to fly towards Ling Luo and Si Huanian with inertia.

Si Huanian was able to block her completely because of Wu and she was not injured, but Ling Luo was not so lucky.

Although she had already jumped away immediately, there was still a sharp piece of porcelain that would avoid her eyes and brush past her side face, leaving behind a scratch that didn't look serious but could already see blood .

"Si Wangqiu!"

Ling Luo is also crazy now.

That blue and white porcelain vase was Ling's father's favorite collection. After his father passed away, Ling Luo kept it by his side for safekeeping. When Si Wangqiu smashed the vase, it directly smashed Ling Luo's thoughts on his father.

Round drops of blood slowly dripped from her cheeks, but Ling Luo could no longer feel the pain, her eyes cut Si Wangqiu's face like a knife, "You wait!"

As he spoke, Ling Luo lifted the hem of his skirt, turned around and walked upstairs quickly.

Si Wangqiu stayed where he was.

When the vase fell over, he suddenly regained his senses, but the bottle had already been shot, and it was too late to regret it.

"Are you all right?"

Si Wangqiu was ashamed and ashamed, and asked in a low voice how she and Si Huanian were doing.

"I'm fine, how about you every year? Are you injured?"

She Wu ignored the bursts of pain coming from the back of her head, and hurriedly got up from Si Huanian's body, looked at her face, raised her arms again, and checked from side to side.

With tears in his eyes, Si Huanian raised his hand and gently held her face in Wu's.

This is the person who will immediately think of protecting her when she is in danger...

This guy is good everywhere...

She doesn't know how long she can have this person...

"Whoa!"

A louder sound broke the brief silence.

A painting fell straight from the platform on the second floor towards the empty space in the living room.

Ling Luo's voice followed closely, "Si Wangqiu! You forced me to do this!"

You ruined what I cherished, and I will ruin yours too!

The glass-mounted picture frame was broken all over the floor, mixed with the tiles that hadn't been cleaned up just now, and the floor was in a mess.

She turned her head, her eyes fell on the painting on the ground, and she couldn't move anymore.

The room is messy and noisy, the two butterflies on the drawing paper are still dancing lightly, and the flower is still blooming beautifully...

She couldn't hear the quarrel in the living room anymore. She stood up, walked to the painting step by step, and knelt down.

Wu directly wiped off the glass with her hands, picked up the paintings on the ground piece by piece, confirmed, and spliced...

Little by little, little by little, and finally combined into the [Butterfly Transformation Picture] that she had been looking for for 5 years.

It is mother's original trace, original manuscript, original painting.

Wu's throat moved, but she couldn't make a sound, so she knelt quietly and watched.

Si Wangqiu, who was in the quarrel, also recognized that it was Jinnian's painting at this time, and thought that Ling Luo bought it on purpose to destroy himself, and he was angry and distressed: "Ling Luo, don't make trouble, what's wrong with me? Just come, don't..."

Don't touch Jinnian's stuff.

With Wu here, Si Wangqiu somehow didn't have the nerve to finish his sentence.

After a while, the two finally stopped arguing.

Si Wangqiu sat back on the sofa to calm down, Ling Luo propped himself up
