After the suspended animation, I was hidden by the madly criticized executive

The news was so sudden that Ji Nian was stunned when he heard it, "What?"

Lu Tingyu took his hand devoutly, with a low voice bewitching: "Do you want to marry me?"

Ji Nian's mind was in chaos, "Brother Ting, why did you mention this all of a sudden?"

A scheming and deepness that no one noticed flashed in Lu Tingyu's eyes, and he rubbed his fingers against Ji Nian's cheek, "I like you and want to be with you forever."

Ji Nian hadn't been able to digest the news yet, and was speechless for a long time.

Capturing Ji Nian's fleeting hesitation, Lu Tingyu's eyes darkened a bit, and his voice was as gentle as ever, "You don't want to?"

Ji Nian said in embarrassment: "Brother Ting, we haven't been together for long, and we don't know each other well enough. Isn't it too hasty to get married so soon?"

Lu Tingyu smiled, "I don't think it's hasty, the people I identify with never regret it."

Seeing Ji Nian's tangled expression, Lu Tingyu gently brushed Ji Nian's lips with his fingertips, "I know that saying this suddenly will make you unable to accept it for a while, but I can give you time to think about it."

"Give me the answer in three days, huh?"

Looking at Lu Tingyu's sincere and expectant expression, Ji Nian couldn't say anything to refuse.

After dinner, Ji Nian received a call from An An's parents and went out to pick her up.

Lu Tingyu looked at Ji Nian's leaving back, the smile on his face faded like a tide, and was replaced by gloom.

What happened during this period, Ji Nian may have already sensed that something was wrong, and he had to hold him firmly in his hands before Ji Nian found out the truth.

On the way to classmate An An's house by car, Ji Nian looked out the window absently.

Lu Tingyu's sudden marriage proposal made him feel no joy. On the contrary, Ji Nian felt an indescribable weirdness in his heart, always feeling that Lu Tingyu couldn't wait to marry him.

Why is it?

Before Ji Nian could figure it out, an unexpected visitor broke the peace of life.

"Ji Nian!"

That day, Ji Nian had just left work and was about to drive home when suddenly a familiar male voice sounded behind him.

Ji Nian turned his head, and a man ran towards him while waving his hands, "Jinian, I finally found you."

Ji Nian looked at the man in front of him in surprise, "Gao Jie, why are you here?"

Ji Gaojie is none other than the son of his adoptive parents.

It's just that Ji Gaojie doesn't like Ji Nian very much, but Ji Nian can understand that no matter who suddenly has an outsider who has no blood relationship in his family, he will feel uncomfortable eating and drinking.

What's more, Ji Gaojie is idle and has the habit of bad gambling. Whenever he has no money, he goes home and asks his parents for it. Therefore, compared to his biological son, his adoptive parents prefer Ji Nian, and they really treat An An as their own granddaughter. This is even worse for Ji Gaojie.

So Ji Nian felt that it would be no good for Ji Gaojie, who hadn't contacted him all year round, to find him.

Sure enough, Ji Gaojie rubbed his hands, and said embarrassedly: "I have no money to spend, and I want to get some money from you."

Ji Nian showed a not-too-surprised expression, thinking, it really is.

Although An An's illness has recovered, there are still many places to spend money, and Ji Nian has no extra money on hand to borrow.

And when Ji Nian moved to this city, his adoptive parents told him that if Ji Gaojie asked him to borrow money, he must not borrow it, let alone contact him, lest he be entangled.

Seeing that Ji Nian didn't speak, Ji Gaojie didn't know what to do, "I won't borrow too much from you, just [-] will do."

Ji Nian told the truth: "An'an spends money every day, and I don't have any extra money to give you."

Ji Gaojie quickly grabbed Ji Nian's wrist, "That's [-], okay?"

Ji Nian still said the same thing: "Sorry, I don't have any extra money to lend you."

Seeing Ji Nian's resolute attitude, Ji Gaojie's face was a bit ugly, "Ji Nian, my parents saved you anyway, otherwise you would have died in the sea long ago, you just help me this time, and you should repay my parents' kindness."

Ji Nian has heard Ji Gaojie say this sentence countless times. In the past, he would lend money to Ji Nian because of guilt, but now he is indifferent.

The people who saved him were his adoptive parents, not Ji Gaojie. When they were old, Ji Nian would support them as his biological parents to make up for his kindness.

But these things have nothing to do with Ji Gaojie.

Ji Nian withdrew his hand from Ji Gaojie's hand, "Then I'll call my parents and tell them, if they agree, I'll lend it to you."

"Ji Nian, you fucking did it on purpose!" Ji Gaojie was annoyed, "You clearly asked my parents, but they wouldn't agree to borrow money from you."

Ji Nian sighed, "You also know that your parents don't want you to gamble, so how can I lend you money?"

After talking about Ji Nian, he turned around to leave, Ji Gaojie clenched his fists and shouted behind him: "Jinian, I can help you find out your life experience!"

Ji Nian suddenly stopped and looked back at Ji Gaojie.

He frowned slightly, "What did you say?"

Seeing that Ji Nian was really hooked, Ji Gaojie didn't hold back anymore, "When you were rescued from the sea by my parents, I found a necklace on you, and that necklace is still in my hand."

Ji Nian didn't hear his adoptive parents mention having a necklace at all. He looked at Ji Gaojie dubiously, thinking that he made up such an excuse to borrow money.

Ji Nian's tone was calm, but hit the nail on the head: "If there is really a necklace, why don't you sell it for money?"

"Do you think I haven't thought about it?" Ji Gaojie's face flashed unnaturally, "I took your necklace to the store where you mortgaged it and asked, and they said that your necklace is worthless, it should be cheap, so I didn't change it."

At that time, Ji Gaojie wanted to throw away the necklace, but then he thought about it, maybe this necklace will come in handy in the future, so he kept the necklace away.

This time he owed a lot of money from gambling, and his family refused to help him, so he remembered the necklace and brought it to find Ji Nian.

Seeing that Ji Nian didn't believe it, Ji Gaojie quickly said, "I tell you, what I said is true, there are words engraved on that necklace."

Ji Nian pursed his lips, "Show me the necklace."

Ji Gaojie was not that stupid, and immediately negotiated the terms, "You promise to give me the money first, and I'll give you the necklace."

Ji Nian was silent for a while, staring straight into Ji Gaojie's eyes, "Is there really this necklace?"

Ji Gaojie's expression didn't look like he was joking at all, "Yes."

Ji Nian asked again: "Then why didn't my parents tell me?"

Ji Gaojie didn't blush when he talked about this incident, "I hid it secretly from them at the time, and they didn't even know about the necklace."

Although Ji Gaojie may be lying, Ji Nian is still willing to take a gamble. If the necklace really exists, he may be able to regain his previous identity.

Ji Nian was silent for a moment, "How much do you want?"

Ji Gaojie held out two fingers, "Twenty thousand."

Ji Nian hesitated for a while, and took Ji Gaojie to the bank to transfer the money.

After receiving the transfer information, Ji Gaojie no longer hid it, took out the necklace from his pocket and threw it to Ji Nian, "Here you are."

Ji Nian quickly caught it and found that it was a very ordinary necklace, no wonder Ji Gaojie couldn't sell it.

However, this also shows that the economic conditions before the quarter may be very general.

He looked at the necklace carefully, and found that only the pendant on it was special, like a safety card.

He turned the pendant over and found several English letters engraved on the back: lty&tl.

Ji Gaojie confirmed the money, put his phone away, and looked at the necklace with his head, "If this necklace is really yours, the letters here are probably your initials, but I don't know which one is your name."

Ji Gaojie didn't know, but Ji Nian recognized it, and his fingers holding the necklace suddenly trembled violently.

The English abbreviation in front is Lu Tingyu, as for the tl in the back, it is...

"Tong Le..." Ji Nian closed his eyes, let out a trembling breath, and held the necklace tightly in his hand.

Ji Nian didn't know how he got home. He sat in the dim living room, looked at the necklace in his hand, and felt chills all over his body.

Did he misunderstand, or is it really Lu Tingyu and Tong Le engraved on this necklace?

If not, how could it be such a coincidence that Lu Tingyu and Tong Le have the same abbreviation, but they know each other, and he and Tong Le look alike, all these coincidences make it impossible for Ji Nian to explain.

But if he is really Tong Le, why did Lu Tingyu treat him so well without telling him the truth?

At this moment, the nurse's anxious voice came from upstairs: "Little Qianjin, Mr. Lu said that you can't enter this room."

Immediately afterwards, An An's childish voice sounded: "Why can't you go in?"

"I don't know either. This is what Mr. Lu ordered. Let's go down, lest Mr. Lu get angry."

An An let out a cry of disappointment.

Ji Nian's body suddenly froze, and he looked up in the direction of the attic.

Lu Tingyu never let anyone into the attic, saying that it contained his parents' belongings. However, when Lu Tingyu opened the safe in the master bedroom last time, there were several gemstone necklaces in it. According to Lu Tingyu, it was left by his mother.

If so, why bother opening them separately?And why did Lu Tingyu put his parents' belongings in a place like the attic?

At this moment, Ji Nian suddenly realized that things were not simple.

What unspeakable secrets are hidden in the attic?

Finally, Ji Nian couldn't restrain his curiosity, he rummaged under the coffee table for a while, and took out a bunch of keys.

This was the last time he asked the nanny for the keys to the garage, and the nanny told him that all the keys in the house were here.

Taking advantage of the time when the nurse took An'an to play in the yard, Ji Nian took the key to the attic, his heartbeat accelerated inexplicably, he took out the key and began to insert it one by one to try.

When I tried the last one, the door of the attic "clicked", accompanied by a harsh creaking sound, and the iron door was slowly pushed open from the outside.

The room was well-furnished and covered with thick dust, as if someone had lived here once. Several large boxes were piled up in the corner and sealed with tape.

Ji Nian caught a glimpse of an upside-down photo frame on the desk, and he slowly stretched out his hand to pick it up.

In the photo is a group photo of Lu Tingyu and a teenager, gloomy and indifferent while cautiously looking at Lu Tingyu with eyes full of love.

And the face of the young man in the photo looks exactly like him.
