Chapter 227 [Reality]

"My mother said that she is someone you can trust." Chen Xi's voice was very soft, but her eyes were inexplicably determined.

Looking at Pei Shiqing's thin back, it was hard to imagine that she was about the same age as Pei Shiqing, maybe she was even older than Pei Shiqing.

But she trusted Pei Shiqing a lot, maybe because of what her mother told her, or maybe because of the unpredictable feeling in her heart.

After hearing this, Pei Shiqing turned around and said, "Well, I want to protect Wang Xiaohua."

Chen Xi was taken aback, but his nose felt a little sore, and his bloodshot eyes began to moisten again.

Pei Shiqing added, "I promised Granny Wang, and I will do what I promised."

At that time, her eyes seemed to be out of focus but seemed extremely sincere, and her answer was just following her heart.

Nie Zheng pursed his lips when he heard the words, and a smile overflowed from his eyes.

Chen Xi couldn't hold back his tears and laughed. These words were childish, but unexpectedly heart-warming.

"Who is Wang Xiaohua?" Cheng He asked.

"Wang Xiaohua is me, and Chen Xi... is also me."

Xi is sunshine, Xiangyang, and her mother's best wishes.

Chen Xi looked up at the dark sky, his eyes were lost in thought.

It won't be dark forever, the sun is coming, and the sunlight at that time will cut through the darkness and usher in the dawn.

And she will not give up, she will definitely find out the murderer who killed her brother and fulfill her mother's wish.

In the car, Cheng He was in charge of driving, Chen Xi sat in the co-pilot, and Nie Zheng and Pei Shiqing sat in the back seat.

"Our captain received the mission temporarily, so he left first, leaving me here to wait for you, it is strange to say, I also went into the ancient tomb to search, but found nothing." Cheng He said regretfully.

Pei Shiqing was eating chocolate next to her, but she was so hungry that she pressed her chest to her back. When she heard Cheng He's words, she slurred her words, "You're a liar."

Cheng He didn't turn the corner in his head for a while, and then realized that he had promised Pei Shiqing not to leave the ancient tomb...

"Not next time." Cheng He said very quickly.

Unexpectedly, Pei Shiqing looked serious, "There will be no next time."

"Okay, okay." Cheng He quickly agreed.

She dug out all the food prepared in Pei Shiqing's vest and distributed it to a few people. Cheng He has been going door to door in the village for a few days, and now he is not hungry at all.

Instead, both Nie Zheng and Chen Xi took it and opened the package.

Suddenly, the ringing of ambushes echoed in the carriage. Pei Shiqing took out his mobile phone from his pocket, and the name on the screen was Fan Yucheng.

"Hey?"

"Pei Shiqing, where did you die?" As soon as the call was connected, Fan Yucheng's words like cannonballs were about to drown Pei Shiqing, "You don't answer your WeChat these days or answer your calls, even if you send me a comma ! Totally out of touch, totally! Do you know I'm worried about you?"

"It's good for you, just tell me, you don't have to wait for you to sleep at night, it's over? Which dog told me to come to accompany me? Is that how you accompany me?"

Pei Shiqing frowned, his eyes rolled around, and his expression of thinking was obvious.

Seeing that there was no answer here, Fan Yucheng's voice also became quieter, and he asked cautiously, "Pei Shiqing? Are you listening to me?"

Pei Shiqing pursed his lips and said awkwardly, "Don't be angry."

Fan Yucheng: "..."

"Why are you pretending to be dumb? If you don't want me to be angry, it's okay. Get the hell out of here today and let me see you."

Nie Zheng thought for a while, then reached out his hand to Pei Shiqing.

Pei Shiqing's eyes lit up, "Apologize for me?"

He nodded with a smile, and Pei Shiqing couldn't wait to put the phone in Nie Zheng's palm.

"Hi, Fan Yucheng, I'm Nie Zheng."

There was a long silence over there, but Nie Zheng just kept his previous posture of answering the phone.

Fan Yucheng on the other end of the phone kept the phone away from him, looked at Pei Shiqing's name on it, and couldn't help shaking his head.

It's over, it's over, it's over, the cabbage raised by the old lady was arched by a pig.

It doesn't seem easy to lose contact these days.

After a long time, "You are no good at anyone."

"Something happened, I will contact you after I arrange it, okay?" Nie Zheng's tone was completely negotiable.

Fan Yucheng immediately raised his heart to his throat, "What's the matter? What's wrong with Pei Shiqing?"

Nie Zheng turned to look at Pei Shiqing who was beside him, "You just need to know that she is safe now."

Fan Yucheng opened his mouth.

You say it's safe?I think you are the biggest insecurity around her.

Rao thought so in her heart, but she didn't say it in the end, but asked: "How long will it take to solve it?"

"Not sure." Nie Zheng said very seriously.

Fan Yucheng rolled his eyes speechlessly, "Then is there a girl by her side?"

Nie Zheng handed the phone to Chen Xi again.

Chen Xi answered the phone and said, "Hi, I'm Chen Xi."

Fan Yucheng talked a lot about how to take care of Pei Shiqing, for example, Pei Shiqing likes desserts and yogurt, but doesn't like green onion and coriander.

And Chen Xi... was seriously remembering.

The conversation ended with the phone dying.

Cheng He asked while driving: "Chen Xi, where is your home?"

"I'll go wherever Pei Shiqing goes." Chen Xiru replied.

"Then will she agree?" Cheng He asked looking at the rearview mirror.

Pei Shiqing seemed to know that the two of them were talking about him, and immediately sat up with his slumped body, "Yes."

-

Huge floor-to-ceiling windows almost take up the entire room, and the sun shines in from outside, a sea of ​​​​orange.

"Wow--" The translucent curtain was drawn, covering half of the sunlight, making the sunlight not so glaring.

"It's the first time I've seen you bring a girl here." The man who spoke was slender, with a mole under the corner of his mouth, which was different from the gentleness that Nie Zheng pretended to be. The man was really gentle and refined, as if he came from a wealthy family. The gentle and noble son who came out.

Nie Zheng sat on the sofa, and a pair of rimless glasses appeared on his face, exactly the same as the one he had discarded before.

"Stop gossip." Nie Zheng said indifferently.

Xiao Chengjin raised his eyebrows, this person doesn't even pretend?

"Okay, I'll start now."

Xiao Chengjin took out the metronome, swung it lightly, and the regular "tick" sound began to fill the whole room.

Pei Shiqing lay on the stool curiously, looking around, seeing everything new.

Xiao Chengjin let go of the soothing white noise again, and Pei Shiqing almost fell asleep listening to it.

"Listen quietly, it's the sound of light raindrops falling on the grass, the birds are hiding under the trees, shaking off the raindrops on their wings, patter..."

Accompanied by his gentle voice, she completely closed her eyes and breathed slowly——

To Pei Shiqing, it was just a nap, but when he opened his eyes again, he found that he was no longer in the ancient tomb.

Pei Shiqing looked around vigilantly, his body tensed up, and suddenly, two familiar figures appeared in his sight, "Nie Zheng? Chen Xi? Why are you here?"

Her eyes were puzzled, but she didn't move, her body was still tense and she didn't relax her vigilance.

"You don't remember?" Nie Zheng asked.

"Remember what?" Pei Shiqing looked puzzled.
