quadruple sleep

It's been so long. In fact, it's not like Hang Si hasn't tried to find the child named Si Nian, but where can he find him in the vast world? There were countless possibilities, but she didn't expect that he was gone.

The reason why she didn't insist on looking for it was because that experience as a child was a carbuncle to her, and how could it be different to other children back then? She didn't want to disturb Sinian. Maybe he, like her, was avoiding that experience.

Hang Si thought of the key point, "Since that group of people has some criminal suspects, can't you ask from their mouths? There shouldn't be many children who can freely enter and leave the tower, right?"

Lu Nan frowned deeply in thought, "The people who were guarding the tower are now dead, and those who were punished cannot remember the child's condition."

The clues were completely lost.

Si Nianzhen, just like Lu Nanshen said, came and disappeared out of thin air.

The room became quiet for a while, and Lu Nanshen suddenly asked, "What does Qiao Yuan mean by that sentence?"

Hang Si didn't react for a while.

"He said, 'Compared to what you have done before.'" Lu Nanshen asked softly, "What have you done?"

Hang Si's red lips opened slightly and he didn't answer for a while.

Lu Nanshen whispered softly, "It doesn't matter. If you don't want to say it, don't say it."

"No..." Hang Si looked sleepy at the corners of his eyes and brows, "I haven't done anything."

In fact, she never understood the meaning of Qiao Yuan's words. At that time, she only had endless hatred for Qiao Yuan. In her opinion, everything was just an excuse for Qiao Yuan.

Qiao Yuan is a demon from hell. The demon wants to bite people, so why bother?
  Until she escaped from the island, until she slowly nourished and restored herself in Xi'an, she once saw Qiao Yuan again in her midnight dream, his eyes like crystals soaked in a cold pool, following her coldly Say, All I do to you is kindness compared to what you have ever done.

She woke up with a fright.

She began to regret that she should have asked more questions in the first place.

Lu Nan was deeply surprised.

Hang Si understood his expression, and she was also unable to argue. She really, really didn't know why Qiao Yuan said that, and when she was in Xi'an, she really went through it from the beginning, and compiled what she could remember. After taking them all out and going through them all, she was sure that only people betrayed her, not her.

"You said..." Lu Nanshen came up with a hypothesis, "Could it be that Qiao Yuan found the wrong person?"

Hang Si was startled, then his eyes turned red, and he almost collapsed emotionally, "Lu Nanshen, you can't be like this..."

If it was an accident, she would be worse off than dead.

Lu Nanshen actually made this assumption casually, but when he saw her expression, he immediately felt annoyed. He couldn't control it, so he reached out and gently held her in his arms, whispering comfort, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to tease you."

How to explain this?
  Hang Si tried his best to suppress the turmoil in his heart, pressing his forehead lightly against his chest. His scent was foresty and soapy, clean and warm, filling her breath in layers, always making people feel warm and safe for a while.

"You might not have thought of it before, but now..." She murmured, her voice weak and helpless, "Could it be Si Nian?"

If it weren't for Lu Nanshen, she might have never known that Si Nian was dead. If you really want to say that you have done something extremely sinful, if you think about it carefully, it is only Si Nian's fault.

"You mean, Qiao Yuan is the eldest brother Si Nian calls him?" Lu Nanshen also hesitated.

Hang Si nodded slightly, "It's not impossible."

With Qiao Yuan's ability, it is impossible to recognize the wrong person. To make him so crazy, it must be the person he cares about the most.

Lu Nan thought for a while, but then questioned, "It doesn't make sense." Hang Si raised his head and looked at him unclearly. He said, "Since Si Nian didn't escape, how did Qiao Yuan know about Si Nian? Even if he knew it afterwards, he wouldn't know it in such detail. There can't be a third person who knows what you two discussed, right?"

Hang Si nodded, "Yes, Si Nian won't tell anyone about escaping."

"That's the problem, so how could Qiao Yuan know that it was you who showed Si Nian the way back then?" Lu Nanshen hit the nail on the head.

Hang Si lowered his eyes slightly and shook his head, "Maybe... he just knew it? Because apart from this matter, I really..."

There's really nothing else.

Lu Nanshen tightened his arms slightly and whispered, "It's okay, everything is over."

Hang Si still shook his head. It was not the past. What she was worried about was that this was just the beginning.

"I'm here, don't be afraid." Lu Nanshen placed his chin lightly on the top of her head and gently stroked her back to comfort her.

Hang Si raised his face to look at him.

She rarely felt so helpless. Her palm-sized face was already fair, and her eyes were slightly red, as if they were stained with the pink of wintersweet. Such a cold person would be pitiable once he becomes weak. At least Lu Nan is so affectionate that it is hard to control himself.

He stared at her face, his eyes uncontrollably falling on her red lips, and he had the urge to lower his head several times. But at this moment, I heard Hang Si murmur, "But... your combat ability is so low, you still need protection from others."

The impulse in Lu Nan's heart suddenly turned into stagnation. He was stunned for a moment, and then he put his forehead against hers and smiled helplessly. Hang Si laughed so hard that he felt unsure. He pushed him but didn't push him away, "Lu Nanshen!"

Then he raised his face slightly, with a smile in his eyes, "Hang Si, I am Zhijiang, can't I?"

"Okay, especially okay." Hang Si said immediately. She was afraid that her blunt words would hurt his heart. "Smart Star is too important in a group, it is the soul."

Lu Nan looked at her with a half-smile.

"Um... let go." The two of them were too close, making Hang Si uncomfortable, so he stretched out his hand and pushed him again.

Lu Nan was deeply amused by her, so she took the opportunity to tighten her arms and said, "Can't you hold me for a little longer?"

"No." Hang Si's cheeks turned red and he was a little anxious.

The upbringing Lu Nanshen received since childhood did not make him a gangster. He smiled and let go, looking at her face, "Why are you blushing if you really don't like her?"

Hang raised his eyes and glared at him.

Lu Nanshen immediately made a gesture of surrender. Seeing that her mood was calmer, she became serious. "I do not care."

Hang Si was startled and looked at him subconsciously.

Lu Nanshen looked at her seriously, "I know what you mean by talking about the past, but I don't care, Hang Si, I like you and it has nothing to do with other things."

Hang Si stared at him and swallowed nervously.

  The weather was good the next day, the sun was shining brightly, which somewhat dissipated the cold and dry air.

The four of them returned to school. On the way, Nian Baixiao drove. Then, the atmosphere in the car was very strange.

When she arrived at the school, Hang Si quickly left, saying that the professor had called her in a hurry. Nian Baixiao abandoned the conference call and ran out, and had to report to the coach bitterly. Now only Fang Sheng and Lu Nanshen were left. Fang Sheng said, "Let's talk?"

Lu Nan looked at her deeply and said, "Okay, let's talk."
