Chapter 259 Scary

She didn’t call her Mother Xu or Dean Xu, but called her aunt. This title has a lot of connotation. It is obvious that Xu's mother is regarded as the person closest to Hang Si, just like Hang Si's mother, so he naturally wants to call her aunt.

How could Mother Xu not see it? That's why I'm more nervous.

So the current situation is that Xu's mother is afraid of Lu Nanshen, and Lu Nanshen is afraid of Xu's mother.

Lu Nanshen quickly became involved with the children, thanks to the snacks, books and toys he brought. He was very thoughtful, and Hang Si didn't expect these things, nor did he have such requirements for him. It was beyond her expectation that he would take the initiative to come to the orphanage to have a look.

The so-called mingling was actually that Lu Nanshen was surrounded by a group of children, with a somewhat passive posture. For a man with sensitive ears, now a large group of children are chattering in front of him, which is probably quite a torture for his ears. What's more important is that the children still talk about uncles and uncles...

The situation stabilized when Lu Nanshen sat down at the piano and played for the children. The children usually liked to sing and dance along with the piano, so they were naturally happy to have someone play the piano for them. Hang Si and Xu's mother sat by the window, and from Hang Si's perspective, he could see the silhouette of Lu Nanshen playing the piano.

It was an old piano, but the sound was pretty good. Xu’s mother was reluctant to throw it away, nor was she willing to let Hang Si replace it with a new one. She always said that old items have a sense of weight and are made of good materials. Lu Nan's fingers that were caressing the keys were long and slender, and his finger bones were strong and graceful. The old piano seemed to have soared in his hands, and the melodious music flowed from his fingers, as if it came from a precious piano.

This scene is both abrupt and harmonious.

What's unexpected is that a dignified man in a suit is sitting in front of an old piano, but the harmony is precisely because of this. He controls the old piano calmly, and no matter how decadent things are, it seems that they are under his thumb. Every space is alive, making people immersed in it.

It just so happened that he was still shrouded in dazzling light, as if he were divine and charming.

There were so many naughty children sitting quietly around him, sitting or standing with their little faces raised, all full of admiration and yearning.

He is a man who can bring hope to children.

Seeing this behind the scenes, Xu's mother sighed and said, "You play so well. It sounds like you have talent."

Hang Si held Xu's mother's arm and said in a very low voice, "He is a conductor. He has been fond of music since he was a child. He is the kind of person who is said to be rewarded by God."

She wasn't afraid that he would hear it, she was telling the truth.

Naturally, Xu's mother didn't know Lu Nanshen's sensitive ears, so she thought everything would be fine if the music blocked it. She asked Hang Si, "Does it really have nothing to do with Qiao Yuan? But they look so much alike, at most they look different in age."

Xu’s mother still has lingering fears.

"It doesn't matter, it's him, and Qiao Yuan is Qiao Yuan." Hang Si couldn't tell the truth to Xu's mother, so he could only be vague.

Xu’s mother was also frightened by what happened that year.

Two years ago, Qiao Yuan came to the orphanage in person in order to take her away. He seemed kind and helpless, but Xu's mother had poisonous eyes and could tell something was wrong with Qiao Yuan. Later, Hang Si disappeared for two years, and the person who reported to Xu's mother that he was safe was Qiao Yuan, but Xu's mother was not stupid. What kind of recuperative person never shows up?

Although Hang Si also called Xu's mother during this period, she was raised by Xu's mother. The calmer Hang Si sounded, the bigger the matter was. From the beginning to the end, Qiao Yuan never said harsh words to Xu's mother, nor did he show any threats in front of Xu's mother, but he made Xu's mother feel a deep sense of fear. Later, when Hang Si came back, although he didn't say much, Xu's mother guessed about it. Xu's mother said, "Qiao Yuan has a ruthless nature that makes people scared."

Mother Xu was silent for a while, then asked Hang Si, "Does he know about Qiao Yuan?"

Hang Si's eyes dimmed a little, "I know."

"What I mean is," Xu's mother lowered her voice, "does he know about you and Qiao Yuan?"

Knowing about Qiao Yuan and knowing about Qiao Yuan's affairs with you are different things. Hang Si sat up and turned to look at Xu's mother. Xu's mother sighed and raised her hand to stroke her hair, "That young man looked like he grew up rich. He is a very well-educated and well-educated child. I can see that he really likes you, otherwise he would not come to the orphanage for you. He wants to know you better and get closer to you, so..."

"He knows everything about me, about me and Qiao Yuan, and about my childhood." Hang Si said softly without hiding anything from Xu's mother.

Mother Xu was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Lu Nanshen who was teaching the children to play the piano, then turned to look at her again and asked in a low voice, "Have you told him?"

Hang Si nodded.

Xu's mother sighed, "Then this young man... is really good, but he is a bit young and I don't know what his character is like."

Just as Hang Si was about to answer, the piano sound stopped suddenly, and Lu Nanshen's profile suddenly tensed up. Before Hang Si could react, Lu Nanshen jumped over, pushed Xu's mother away with one hand, and held Hang Si with the other hand and moved him to the side. Hang Si only felt a whoosh of cool wind pass by his ears, and then heard a clang, and something stuck into the piano.

Everything happened too fast. Just as Hang Si was about to look up, he heard a child's scream coming from the yard. He was terrified. Lu Nan let go of Hang Si and rushed out immediately. Her brain was buzzing and she staggered after her.

It was a four or five-year-old girl sitting on the ground crying. Everyone in the orphanage was alarmed. Lu Nanshen quickly picked up the child and told the people who came over, "To the southeast, in the woods, the man is running along the river with a crossbow. If you can catch up with him, quick."

Several people got the order and quickly chased after him.

Everyone in the orphanage was dumbfounded, especially Xu's mother. They didn't know how those people appeared. They had never seen those people before. Also, what happened just now?

Although Hang Si's mind was confused, he heard the object mentioned by Lu Nanshen: the crossbow. He suddenly thought of the possibility. The murderer really liked her.

Xu's mother hurriedly took the child over and tried to persuade her. She also asked about the security situation of the orphanage. The security guard was confused and said, "I really don't know what's going on. I just saw this child trying to run into the house." I screamed as if I saw something. Dean, it couldn't be that... the orphanage is not clean, right?"

The security guard was newly hired and he spoke carelessly. Xu's mother scolded her, "What nonsense are you talking about in front of your children?"

Lu Nanshen stepped forward and looked at Hang Si, "Are you injured?"

Hang Si shook his head, but his face turned pale. She thought of the voice she just heard, "Let's wait until the child calms down before asking questions. Go back to the house first."
