Xie Bufei stared at her for a while, her ears felt hot.She cleared her throat as a cover-up, and asked with a smile, "Why is your mouth so sweet today?"

Yu Qiao pursed her lips and smiled, but didn't answer.Facing her gentle gaze, Xie Bufei felt her cheeks getting hotter, turned around hastily, and said, "Go, I'll take you to my house."

Yu Qiao obediently followed behind her.

Pushing open the door, Xie Hongxin, Lin Qingwei, and Xie Ke were all sitting in their original seats, and turned their heads to look over when they heard the door open.

Yu Qiao walked into the living room, saw a long-haired woman on the sofa, turned around and asked, "Xiao Fei, is this your friend? Why don't you introduce me?"

She looked only in her thirties, with curly hair and red lips, and the charm of a mature woman in her eyebrows and eyes, she looked somewhat similar to Xie Ke.Yu Qiao soon realized that this should be Xie Ke's mother.

Another middle-aged man looked at her with elegant and majestic features.

"My school girl, Yu Qiao." Xie Bufei stopped and introduced to her concisely, "This is my father, and that one is Aunt Lin."

Yu Qiao hesitated for a moment, but still followed her words and shouted, "Hello, Uncle Xie, and hello, Aunt Lin."

Xie Hongxin stared at her for a moment, then nodded heavily: "En."

"Hello." Lin Qingwei smiled suddenly, and greeted in a soft voice, "Xiaofei rarely brings friends to play at home, which is really rare. Yu Qiao, come here more often when you have time."

Yu Qiao said cautiously: "Yes." She didn't take the other party's polite words seriously.This Aunt Lin gave her the same feeling as Xie Ke, very dangerous.

Xie Ke is more direct and pure, while Lin Qingwei is a needle in the cotton.

Xie Ke on the sofa smiled and waved at her: "Student Yu Qiao, we meet again."

Xie Hongxin: "Xiao Ke, do you know each other?"

"I met her before, because my sister has a good relationship with her." Xie Ke put her hands on her knees and replied softly, "So I always wanted to be friends with classmate Yu Qiao, but unfortunately I didn't have the chance."

She lowered her head, looking a little disappointed.The implication was that she was blaming Yu Qiao for not wanting to be friends with her.

Sure enough, Xie Hongxin's expression darkened after hearing this.

Xie Bufei glanced at her and said coldly: "Some people should reflect on why they are not popular."

After finishing speaking, she pulled Yu Qiao's wrist and went straight upstairs.

There was no more sound behind them, and they stepped into the corridor on the second floor. The wooden floor was tanned by the sun outside the window, and it reverberated when they stepped on it.

Xie Bufei pushed open one of the doors and said, "This is my room."

Yu Qiao took off her shoes and walked in, then paused.Xie Bufei's room looks very similar to the style of the dormitory, with warm colors and a comfortable look.

The walls are covered with girly wallpaper and the home decor has cute shapes.The rooms are huge, but every inch of space is used to perfection.

Xie Bufei looked at her and asked a little nervously, "How is it?"

Yu Qiao retracted her gaze and said sincerely, "It's very good-looking, senior sister is very good at matching."

Xie Bufei smiled, pulled the chair in front of the table for her to sit, and sat on the bed by herself.

She fell back on the soft quilt, looked at the ceiling, was quiet for a while, and said, "Actually, I'm not very good at it. My mother bought me a lot of furniture."

Yu Qiao said: "Auntie has a good vision."

"She used to like tinkering with these things very much, and wanted to buy me Barbie doll-like clothes and a pink lace princess bed." Xie Bufei said, "Later, I strongly protested and threatened her with a hunger strike for three days before giving up."

Yu Qiao imagined the picture, and the corners of her mouth gradually raised.

Xie Bufei: "Her room is next to mine, and it is still pink when she is old."

Yu Qiao felt strange: "Auntie lives alone?"

"Since she got sick, she lived in a separate room with my dad." Xie Feifei paused, his tone sank.

"After my mother passed away, my father originally wanted to let Xie Ke live in my mother's room, but I didn't agree. One day when I came home, I saw the servant putting everything in my mother's room into the utility room inside.

That day, my dad and I had a big quarrel, and the quarrel was very fierce. Later, he voluntarily gave in and did not open the room again. "

Yu Qiao listened and frowned involuntarily: "Uncle Xie has gone too far."

"To this day, I can't figure out why." Xie Bufei turned over on the bed, resting his head on his slender arms, staring at Yu Qiao, with a low voice, "Could it be that for him, that room, those memories, Is it all optional stuff?"

Her gaze drooped slightly, and the gradually dimming light flickered in her beautiful eyes, like a crescent moon reflected on the lake, blown to pieces by the wind, looking beautiful but lonely.

Yu Qiao didn't know what to say, she stood up, walked over, and gently pulled her into her arms.

They were lying face to face, Xie Bufei buried her face in the crest of her neck, and rubbed gently with the tip of her nose.

The house was quiet for a long time, and the sound of shaking leaves and vague birdsong could be heard in the distance.

Xie Bufei gradually calmed down, leaned into her arms, and asked softly: "Do you want to go and see her room?"

Yu Qiao said, "Of course I want to go. Can I?"

"Yes." Xie Bufei looked up at her and smiled.She took out a small yellowed key from the bedside table and sat up.

They walked out of the room and went to the next door.

The door opened, and the room was pitch black.Xie Bufei opened the curtains, large swathes of sunlight poured in, and fine dust swirled in the air.

Yu Qiao was surprised to find that the room was very clean, as if someone came here to clean it from time to time.The wooden floor is bright and reflective, and it feels cool to step on it with bare feet.

She looked around and said, "It looks like a princess' room."

"The girl is full of heart." Xie Bufei picked up the glass jar on the table, which was filled with colorful five-pointed stars, all made of paper.

Yu Qiao looked up at the bookshelf, she noticed that there was an uncovered book on the top shelf, she was a little curious.Seeing this, Xie Bufei took it off.

"I remember this, it seems to be a photo album." She turned a page and smiled, "It really is."

Yu Qiao leaned over to look, and there was a photo of a woman on the first page, wearing a rouge-colored dress and a straw hat, who seemed to be standing by the sea, looking sideways at the camera.

When the sea breeze blew, her long skirt and the waves swelled, and there was a faint smile on her lips.

Yu Qiao sighed: "Auntie is so pretty."

"This is when she was young, and her beauty was at its peak." Xie Bufei smiled and said softly, "It's a pity that after chemotherapy, her hair fell out, so she doesn't look so good."

"That will definitely not be so ugly." Yu Qiao said.

Xie Bufei turned to the second page, the young woman and Xie Hongxin were standing together, this is a wedding photo, the handsome man and the beautiful woman look very well matched.In the lower right corner of the page, there are a few Xiujuan small characters written "one generation, one pair in one lifetime".

She sneered, and hurriedly turned the page: "It's all fake."

On the third page, Yu Qiao saw the gentle expression of the woman in the photo. She was holding a little girl in her arms, with two upturned croissants and a pink bubble skirt. She licked the ice cream in her hand and looked at lens.

She paused, leaned over to take a closer look, but was blocked by a hand.

Xie Bufei blocked the photo and stammered: "Don't look at it, black history."

Yu Qiao tried to push her fingers away, and said in a serious tone, "It's obviously very cute."

Xie Bufei pursed her lips, and took away her palm awkwardly.Yu Qiao stared at the photo carefully and couldn't help laughing.

"Are you laughing at me?" Xie Bufei squinted at her.

"No." Yu Qiao said, "I didn't expect my senior sister to be so...cute, like a Barbie doll."

Xie Bufei snorted softly, and reluctantly accepted her statement: "It's all because she forced me to wear them, and I don't like these."

She didn't expect that there were many similar photos. The next page showed Barbie eating cake, Barbie riding a tricycle, Barbie falling down and crying, and so on.

The more Xie Bufei watched, the more ashamed she became, and said angrily, "When was this secretly filmed? Don't watch it!"

Yu Qiao suppressed a smile: "Okay, I won't watch it." She silently remembered the scene just now in her heart.

She turned to the next page, and there was a young girl standing in front of the camera. She was fair and straight, with black hair and a long nose. Her beautiful fox eyes were playfully curved, and her smile was green and immature. She vaguely looked like a beauty.

Xie Bufei took a look and said, "This seems to be when I was in junior high school."

Yu Qiao stared blankly, she found that Xie Bufei's facial features were very similar to her mother's, soft, with a bit of natural beauty and charm in the movement of her brows and eyes.

"Stupid?" Xie Bufei looked at her expression and chuckled.

Yu Qiao came back to her senses, and touched the tip of her nose in embarrassment.

She was thinking just now that it would be great if she could meet Xie Bufei earlier.She missed so many good times with each other.

On the tenth page, the girl and the woman look at each other, two very similar faces, the woman is lying on the hospital bed, her lips are pale, only her pupils are bright, like a flower that is about to wither.The girl sat by the hospital bed, her eyes were red.

Xie Bufei looked at the photo, was silent for a moment, and said, "I didn't really like taking pictures with her before, and I found it troublesome."

She paused, and then said, "I felt a bit regretful later, why didn't I take more photos at the beginning?"

Yu Qing remained silent, and stretched out her hand to gently pat Xie Bufei's back, feeling the girl's figure trembling slightly under the palm of her hand.

There are many landscape photos of women, from gorgeous to weak, each one has a different style.She is a photogenic person by nature, and any photo taken is like an artistic photo.

Xie Hongxin was also by her side occasionally, but the behavior of the two of them didn't look close, more like respecting each other.

Yu Qiao looked at the photos that changed over time, as if she had seen her entire life.

Before I knew it, a photo album reached the last page.The place where the photo was sandwiched was blank, as if the original photo had been taken out and put into a piece of paper.

The paper was yellowed and wrinkled, and was splashed with circular dark marks, as if liquid had been spilled on it.

A few lines of handwriting are as beautiful as before, but they look a little messy, and they are written by the same person.

"On the day of the follow-up visit, you accompanied me to the doctor, and when I came out, I heard you flirting with that woman on the phone.

What happened to you makes me sick, Xie Hongxin, when did she get pregnant with your daughter?How long have you been entangled behind my back?

I was so naive.If I had known this, I should have taken Xiao Fei away.But I was sick, and I had no energy left.I also don't have the courage to tell her that everything is false, this family has already fallen apart. "

Yu Qiao saw that Xie Bufei's expression changed.

"What do you mean?" She opened her eyes blankly and her lips trembled. "What is it? My dad still has a daughter?"

She took down the paper and read it several times.It's a thin piece of paper, but it's almost impossible to hold it steady.

Yu Qiao pressed her shoulders and said in a low voice, "Sister, don't panic, don't be afraid..."

Xie Bufei breathed hard and found her reason in Yu Qiao's voice. She turned over the paper and saw two names written on the back.

——Xie Hongxin, Lin Qingwei.

A guess immediately emerged in Yu Qiao's mind, and she froze in place.

Xie Bufei suddenly smiled and said, "So that's how it is."

She originally thought that Lin Qingwei and Xie Hongxin only established a relationship in the third year after their mother's death.

Unexpectedly, the two were entangled early in the morning.

"I always thought that Xie Ke was the child of Lin Qingwei and her ex-husband." She smiled faintly, with a self-deprecating expression, "No wonder... no wonder my dad seems to like her so much."

Xie Bufei murmured: "Being so kind to her, being obedient...do you want to make up for it?"

Yu Qiao suddenly reached out her hand and pulled her into her arms.

Xie Bufei's voice stopped abruptly, and after a long silence, Yu Qiao felt warm liquid dripping down her neck.

"For a moment just now, I really wanted to take revenge on them." Xie Bufei had tears in his eyes, "Quietly, am I bad?"

"No." Yu Qiao said, "If you want revenge, I will help you. You can do whatever you want."
