Wen Zhi knew some past events about Shang Hexing.

His mother, Han Xiangying, died of illness when he was a teenager.

Speaking of which, the reason why the merchant is as brilliant as it is today is not only Shang Hexing's own ability to support the merchant, but also the helping hand of Han Xiangying's matrilineal family.Shang Hexing's grandfather was a distinguished nobleman. Compared with the Xie and Shang families, the Han family was truly a high-ranking family.

You must know that at that time, merchants were not even ranked among the four major families.

It was only after Han Xiangying married into the merchant that the merchant ranked among the four major families!

"You come to the city every year, but every time it is a private trip. Not many people should know that Aunt Han is buried in the back hill of Jingci Temple, right?" Wen Zhi asked him.

Shang Hexing said: "Only the Han family knows."

Wen Zhi understood this clearly, which meant that no one except the Han family knew that Han Xiangying was buried here.

But Wen Zhi was really frightened and surprised that Shang Hexing would tell her such a secret.

"There is no need for psychological pressure." He could sense that she was a little uneasy.

"It's okay." Wen Zhi mentioned: "I still vaguely remember that year, adults and I went to Aunt Han's memorial service."

"I was too young at that time, so I don't remember much about it."

"But I remember that was the first time I met you."

"I also asked..."

The words came to an abrupt end, and Wen Zhi was embarrassed to continue.

Shang Hexing finished for her: "Ask your father why I didn't cry."

Wen Zhi stopped, let go of his hand and said, "I'm sorry, I was young at that time and I couldn't hold back my words."

The past is too long ago.

Wen Zhi felt quite guilty when she mentioned it by chance. Everyone was trying to persuade him to refrain from mourning, but she wondered why he didn't cry. He was indeed speaking freely.

Shang Hexing knew that she was guilty, so his tone softened: "It's all in the past."

Wen Zhi said, "It would be better if I were older at that time, so that I wouldn't speak out loud, and I would definitely comfort you."

"Wen Zhi, don't think about everything too perfectly." Shang Hexing told her: "If it's too full, you'll lose. That's just the right time."

Wen Zhi didn't understand.

But I was embarrassed to ask him what he meant.

In fact, she didn't know that it was that day that Shang Hexing remembered her.One day many years later, Shang Hexing attended Wen Yinxi's memorial service, but Wen Zhi did not show up that day. He looked for her for a long time.

But no one except Mu Yanzhou knew about this.

"Then do you come here at a fixed time every year, or at irregular times?" Wen Zhi asked curiously.

Shang Hexing answered her: "I don't know the time."

Wen Zhi understood: "I don't want others to know that Aunt Han is buried here, right?"

"Yeah." He replied.

Wen Zhi asked again: "Do you wait until dark before going down the mountain like today every time you come? Or you don't plan to go down the mountain until the next day!"

Shang Hexing sighed softly: "I will go down the mountain, it's just a little late."

"From now on..." Wen Zhi originally wanted to persuade him not to do this again.

Dangerous.

Even if he has skills, accidents will inevitably happen and it is impossible to guard against them.

When the words came to her lips, she thought about it. He could only spare time to spend time with his mother once a year, so it was understandable that he wanted to stay longer.

Forget it, let's not talk about it.

Shang Hexing naturally knew what she was going to say: "I will try my best to go down the mountain as early as possible in the future."

Wen Zhi suddenly stopped and asked him, looking up at him: "I..."

Shang Hexing also stopped: "It's really not safe. I always have to take responsibility for those who worry about me."

Hearing his words, Wen Zhi felt a different kind of emotion in her heart. She was a little confused and out of control. She probably knew the reason for this.Her heartbeat was speeding up at this time. She took a deep breath and kept a calm tone: "When you tell me this, aren't you afraid that one day I won't keep my mouth shut and mention it in front of others?"

Shang Hexing: "That's nothing."

Wen Zhi: "You just believe in me too much."

"Isn't it good to believe you?" He asked with a smile, his tone was so gentle.

Wen Zhi said: "Your trust in me makes me feel guilty. I did not put the trust between us on an equal footing."

"Wen Zhi, what you said now has actually put the trust between us on an equal footing. Do you understand what I mean?" Shang Hexing said seriously.

Wen Zhi had an epiphany.

It seems that's what he said.

Now that they were getting closer to the waterfall and the road ahead became narrower, Shang Hexing motioned for her to go forward and let go of her hand.

When he pulled his hand away, it was suddenly clasped tightly by Wen Zhi.

She said: "You should walk in front, I will follow behind you, you hold my hand... don't let go."

Shang Hexing tilted her head and raised her phone. Just when the light was about to shine on her face, she suddenly said: "Shine the road, shine the road, snap the road."

There was a smile in Shang Hexing's voice: "Okay."

She was afraid that Shang Hexing would see the expression on her face.

Even she herself didn't know what kind of expression she had on her face right now. She probably had five senses flying around, just like the pounding heartbeat of a deer.

Passed the waterfall.

Intermittent shouting came from the front.

Wen Zhi took the mobile phone from Shang Hexing, held it up and shook it from side to side in the dark night. The light flickered and flashed. Wen Zhi shouted loudly: "Chen Zhu! We are here! We..."

wrong!

Wen Zhi listened carefully, and it seemed that it was not Chen Jinhuai's voice.

She immediately put down her phone, pressed the light on the back of the phone, and said to Shang Hexing, "It doesn't sound like Chen Zhu's voice?"

Shang Hexing said: "It's Xu Yu."

Wen Zhi became nervous: "Secretary Xu is alone, should we speak out?"

"It's okay, let him come over."

After saying that, Shang Hexing held Wen Zhi's wrist and raised the phone again.The lighting was very bright, and Xu Yu over there saw the light of the mobile phone at a glance.

"Mr. Shang?"

"Is it Mr. Shang?"

Xu Yu shouted uncertainly a few times, and Shang Hexing responded: "Yes."

Wen Zhi hid behind Shang Hexing quietly.

Not long after, Xu Yu ran over sweating profusely.

Xu Yu was originally wearing a suit and leather shoes, and his hair was meticulously combed, but because he went into the mountains to look for someone, he became a little embarrassed.At this time, Xu Yu held two flashlights in his hand, one he was using and the other he had prepared for Shang Hexing.

He handed the other flashlight to Shang Hexing and said, "Mr. Shang, I finally found you."

Shang Hexing took the flashlight: "Thank you for your hard work."

Xu Yu quickly said no, and then his eyes fell on Wen Zhi behind Shang Hexing: "Miss Wen, you are indeed here."

Wen Zhi nodded but said nothing.

Shang Hexing signaled to Xu Yu: "Go find Chen Jinhuai, you go down the mountain first."

As a subordinate, Xu Yu never asked much about his leader. He just glanced at Wen Zhi again before leaving, and then hurriedly left to find Chen Jinhuai.

After Xu Yu left, Wen Zhi came out from behind Shang Hexing and said, "Secretary Xu looked at me very strangely."

Shang Hexing held Wen Zhi's hand again: "He has no problem." (End of Chapter)
