The setting sun dipped below the horizon, and dusk merged.

At night, the surrounding area slowly returns to cleanliness and becomes lifeless.

The sound of the machines in the factory next door stopped, and Ji Cen'an also took advantage of the dark to go out on business.Go out and meet old acquaintances, connect offline with the person who gave the lead.

At night, the road in Tongzi Lane is dim, densely packed with high and low buildings, and the main road is separated by a hundred meters away. It is necessary to cross several winding and winding paths to get out.

Ji Cen'an walked alone, from the dark place to the main street with few vehicles and people, to the end of the street, and to the stop sign to wait for the last bus at night.

It was late at this time, and there were not many passengers coming to take the bus. There was only a young man with a tired look and two middle-aged uncles in overalls at the stop sign. At first glance, they were migrant workers who had just got off work and were about to go home.

Ji Cen stood at the edge of the stop sign and joined in without saying a word.

She tied her hair up and tied it down behind her head. She was wearing a white collared short-sleeved pair with loose trousers, flat shoes on her feet, and a pure black hat with a hood on her head. tied masks.

This kind of dress is relatively low-key, and it is generally inconspicuous when blending into the crowd.

Approaching there, a middle-aged man glanced here reflexively, but he didn't pay much attention, and turned away after looking at it.

The young man next to him was also of the same type. He was thin and tall, with a simple and clean outfit. It was not surprising at first glance.

The car is coming, pull over and stop.

Most of the seats on the last bus are empty, and most of the people rushing home at this time are listless working parties. They either lean on their seats and close their eyes or look down at their phones, and no one pays attention to insignificant strangers. people.

Ji Cen'an took a seat in the back row by the window and stayed alone.

The terminus of the bus is the last two stops in University City, and there are no more than two passengers left when the bus arrives there.

The mechanical announcement sounded, and Ji Cen'an got off at this station, and then went all the way to the remote narrow road, sneaked into a residential area with familiarity, and found a dark place that was not easy to be found and waited.

This is a place she used to come to often. The security management of the community is poor, but it is hidden and inconspicuous enough to avoid many eyes and ears.

——When she was still studying, she often came to meet Nanga in one of the buildings, and the two spent countless nights together.

It's been five years since I thought about it, but if I do the math, it seems that it's only been four or five months since I met Nanjia?

Ji Cen'an couldn't recall it, but he only remembered that this place carried too much of the absurdity of the past, a bunch of taboo and shady secrets, and entanglements that shouldn't have happened.

Now that the old place is back, Ji Cen'an can't help but think of last night's dream and some old accounts.

She looked up to the eighteenth floor of the building diagonally opposite, and glanced lightly.

It seems that there are not many residents in the community. The room on the eighteenth floor is dark and the lights are not on. It is not clear whether there are still people living there.

There should be none, and it is estimated that there will be no second cheater who will rent such an expensive and tasteless flat, but anyone with a normal mind will not do so.

In his senior year, Ji Cen'an was not short of money, and agreed to come to this old community, and he was willing to come here just for fun.

The house was chosen by Nanjia and rented in the name of Nanjia. They lived in this community for nearly half a year until Ji Cen'an successfully graduated.

The first time they had a relationship was in the Daping floor. Nanjia didn't want to go to her house, so she had to compromise and find another place. It took a long time to choose this place.

On the eighteenth floor, Nanjia volunteered to follow her.

Ji Cen'an was not a good thing before, she could be called a scumbag, and she was the kind who was completely bad inside and out. She lacked great virtue and did bad things a lot.

In fact, that year Nanjia also had a childhood sweetheart, a professor at the University of Science and Technology, who was born in a scholarly family.Zhuma and Nanjia share the same interests. They grow up together and get along well in all aspects. A cultural person, an artist, they are going to be a couple, but unfortunately they are stillborn halfway. This is not clear. The relationship between them came to an abrupt end before they even had time to clarify their intentions.

Ji Cen'an was only 25 years old when he was in his senior year. At that time, Nanjia was actually [-]. He was a budding fashion designer. They met at a charity banquet and got to know each other.

Ji Cen'an fell in love with Nanjia in a floor-length dress at first sight, and was attracted by the graceful and light Klein blue, so he paid a lot of money to photograph Nanjia's design draft, generously cheering for it, borrowing This is close.

In the beginning, Nanjia didn't defend her against her. She only acted as if she was the eldest lady of some family, and she dealt with her generous moves like a formality, carelessly and perfunctorily.

Ji Cen'an knew it well, but he didn't expose it. He just invited Nanjia to dinner a few times, and made a show first, and then showed his true colors when he no longer had the will to maintain it.

Like catching prey, she conquered Nanga step by step, and only when she completely defeated the opponent did she take full possession of it...

Ji Cen'an likes literary women, and regards all the other's requests as fun, and regards that experience as a spice in the boring days.

The accidental appearance of Nanjia is a kind of novelty, no matter what the other party's sincerity is, she doesn't mind, it's just an interesting experience anyway.

When he was young and frivolous, he was ignorant and self-willed, unable to distinguish between feelings and right and wrong, he did everything according to his will, premeditated what he wanted, the more he did not belong to him, the more energetic he was, and he wanted to fight the fire against the wind, regardless of the consequences.

In the final analysis, it is still the inferiority that is at work.

At that moment, at this moment, there are some things that I can't understand.

Without saying a word, Ji Cen'an narrowed his eyes and put away his useless thoughts.

No one knew about those things, none of them revealed the slightest thing to the outside world, and no one knew about it.It should be safer and a safe place to go.

Compared with a few years ago, the community has not changed, even the signs have not been changed.

Ji Cen'an was very familiar with this place, and he was worried about other places, so he only agreed to meet old acquaintances here.

In a trance, the old acquaintance had already arrived, and he just showed up not long ago.

Noticing the movement over there, Ji Cen'an cautiously moved back a little, hiding deeper.

The other party is an old man in his 60s, of medium build, with a kind and honest face.

The old man is the housekeeper of a property under her name, named Yang Kaiming, a native of Z City.Three years ago, he was the one who helped Ji Cen'an to deal with the aftermath. This time, he was the one who worked for her. He found an important middleman who helped Ji's family escape, and also found out the whereabouts of Ji's parents and elder brother.

Ji Cen'an has shown kindness to Yang Kaiming. Eight years ago, he helped Yang Kaiming's cancer-stricken wife with money and contacts. He also supported and helped his family.

Yang Kaiming was kind and honest, he missed his old feelings and was grateful to her from the bottom of his heart, so this time he dared to repay her under pressure and was willing to do so many things for her.

Yang Kaiming was sitting on a wooden chair in the pavilion, looking around from time to time, looking around meticulously.

See if there are any familiar figures, and worry about whether you are being followed, or if there are other unexpected situations.

Ji Cen'an watched from a distance, and if he didn't go immediately, he was extremely alert to observe first, fearing that there might be accomplices or something like that.

She doesn't trust outsiders, no matter who they are.

Close relatives whose blood is thicker than water will betray themselves, or the whole family conspired against her, using her as a cover before ruthlessly abandoning her, let alone such an old employee who has no bond.

No matter how anxious Yang Kaiming was, fidgeting and waiting, Ji Cen'an remained calm, hiding in a corner and watching silently.

After confirming that there were really no accomplices, Ji Cen'an showed up and went up calmly.

"Uncle Yang." She spoke first, in a low voice.

Yang Kaiming was a little excited, and was about to stand up when he saw her, but he held back thinking that the occasion was wrong.The old man responded and called softly: "Mr. Ji."

Ji Cen'an also sat on the wooden chair, but not next to each other, and said, "It's so late, please come and go yourself."

The old man was a little bit at a loss, but he didn't talk too much, he immediately stuffed a thick envelope to her, whispered his instructions, and informed her of the newly found information.

Both sides are crisp and know what to do.

The meeting is for business, there is no need to procrastinate.

After finishing speaking, Ji Cen'an raised his long legs and was about to leave. Before leaving, he said worriedly: "Be careful on the way back, too."

"Hey, I know." Yang Kaiming replied, he couldn't change his old habits, and he still treated her respectfully.

Seeing this, Ji Cen'an pursed his thin lips, but didn't say anything after all.

Xu was worried that it would not be easy for her to wander abroad, the old man hesitated to speak, and he stopped after taking two steps, and asked with concern: "How have you been these few years?"

She turned around, hummed in a lukewarm manner, and only said, "Let's go, go back early."

After finishing speaking, he turned around impersonally.

Yang Kaiming stood still, sighed regretfully, and watched her go away.

Ignoring him, Ji Cen'an didn't have so many feelings of hurting the spring and autumn. After leaving the community, he deliberately circled around and maintained a high degree of vigilance.

There was a gourmet street a kilometer or two ahead, and she deliberately went there for a spin, pretending to be shopping for food, wandering around for a long time and then turning back.

At this time Yang Kaiming had already left without a trace.

Ji Cen'an pulled down the brim of his hat, almost covering his eyes, before he was about to find a car and go back to Tongzi Lane.She didn't dare to go outside the illuminated neighborhood, she only walked a long way, and didn't plan to call a taxi until the corner of the street where there were many people and cars.

There were several people waiting for the bus at the fork in the road, and there were young people coming and going.

There are [-] universities nearby, and there are quite a lot of students here. The nightlife has just kicked off on the big night, and there are bustling noises everywhere.

A girl who just came from a chain convenience store was in a hurry, holding greasy instant noodles and almost bumped into Ji Cen'an.

Fortunately, Ji Cen'an reacted quickly and dodged sideways in time.

The overflowing soup splashed on the ground, the girl was startled, and hurriedly asked her: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, are you okay?"

Ji Cen'an stepped aside and said coldly, "It's okay."

The girl felt embarrassed, apologized one after another, and handed her a small pack of tissues.

"Need not."

Ji Cen'an refused, with an indifferent attitude.

The girl didn't insist too much, and walked away after a while.

Not caring about such details, Ji Cen'an continued to wait for the car, and opened the door when the taxi stopped.

At this time, someone behind him suddenly shouted: "Professor Xu!"

Then came another voice: "Teacher Nanjia."

It's that girl.

Ji Cen'an paused slightly, and turned his head unconsciously.
