Chapter 219 Who is the perpetrator 2
Lou Xi saw her surprised face, raised her eyebrows slightly, suddenly thought of something, and quickly explained, "Oh, didn't I tell you that Hongyu is grandpa's granddaughter, in terms of seniority, she should be considered a My cousin."

Ye Xingchen nodded blankly, no wonder Hongyu always called him Brother Lou Xi.

However, they are not related by blood. Anyone can see Hongyu's affection for Lou Xi. I wonder if Hongyu will be unhappy after seeing her?
Just as she was thinking in a trance, the rainbow jade from inside the door had already come, and through the iron gate, she had already seen the person coming, and when she arrived, she hurriedly greeted him warmly, "Uncle Lou, Aunt Han, Happy New Year! Lou Yi Brother, Brother Lou Xi..."

Before she finished speaking, she suddenly stopped because she saw Ye Xingchen.

Ye Xingchen subconsciously tightened Lou Xi's hand, feeling a little sorry in his heart.

She had a good impression of Hongyu. They had met several times in Yunchuan before. Although the friendship between the two was not very deep, they had met several times and had dinner together. To put it a little better, it can also be regarded as a friend.

She can see clearly how Hongyu treats Lou Xi, but now that she and Lou Xi appear here hand in hand, apart from being surprised, Hongyu should also feel embarrassed, right?

She didn't do it on purpose, but that's the way it is.

"Doctor Ye?" Hongyu asked again, as if unwilling to believe it.

Ye Xingchen nodded awkwardly, but didn't know what to say.

Lou Xi knew what Ye Xingchen was thinking, being as kind as her, she must be feeling uncomfortable, so she stepped forward and said to Hongyu with a half-smile, "What doctor Ye, do you know if you want to call your cousin in the future?"

Cousin?

Hongyu suddenly opened her eyes wide, and the shock and loss could not be concealed in her beautiful eyes.

"Hongyu, why don't you invite someone in?" Another person came out of the room and said urgently.

Ye Xingchen looked at the reputation, and was taken aback again, Professor He Lin?

Oh, by the way, she remembered that Hongyu once said that Professor He Lin was her aunt, so Professor He Lin should be her grandfather's daughter.

Lou Xi lowered her head and explained to her again, "Professor He Lin, you should be familiar with her. She is the youngest daughter of grandpa, and grandpa has another eldest daughter, who is Hongyu's mother, He Ying."

Ye Xingchen's heart shrank, and he asked nervously, "Grandpa doesn't have a son?"

"No, only two daughters."

Ye Xingchen's heart sank suddenly, and a bad premonition loomed in his heart.

Lou Xi had told her that all his uncles had daughters, and the sons and grandsons of the Lou family were only him and Lou Yi, so... the old man's grandson, the perpetrator of the car accident, was either Lou Yi or... Lou rhinoceros.

Professor He Lin quickly opened the door and invited everyone in. She was slightly taken aback when she saw Ye Xingchen, obviously by accident.

"Professor He." Ye Xingchen greeted politely, but felt very uneasy.

"This world is really small, fate!" He Lin sighed with a smile, and then greeted everyone, "Come on, everyone, come in, the old man has been waiting since early in the morning!"

The little devil was the first to rush in, not forgetting to grab Shu Rao, and shouted happily, "Grandpa, I have a mother!"

Shu Rao's face turned red again, and his gaze was wrong, he caught a glimpse of Ye Xingchen's melancholy expression, frowned subconsciously, walked over quickly, and asked in a low voice, "Xingchen, what's wrong with you?"

Ye Xingchen shook his head, still unwilling to face the reality, and there was still that last glimmer of hope in his heart.

"It's okay, I'm just...a little nervous." She bit her lip and said.

Shu Rao was also nervous, so she didn't think too much, just shook her hand lightly, and the two encouraged each other.

A group of people walked through the long courtyard to the main house of the villa.

Ye Xingchen's every step was difficult, even though Lou Xi kept holding her hand, comforting her and telling her not to be nervous, but she couldn't tell him that she was not only nervous, but also very scared, afraid of that nightmare The facts have been confirmed, fearing that the happy and stable life between them will be broken, and fearing that they will never be able to be together without distractions.

Every step she takes is like walking on thin ice, worrying that in the next second, she will fall into the ice cave, and no one can save her, just like her parents will never survive again.

In the room, the old man He Minghui couldn't sit still any longer, leaning on a cane, with the support of his eldest daughter, he stood up and looked towards the door with his neck up.

A few hours ago, he had heard on the phone that Lou Yi and Lou Xi were going to bring their other half here today, and he was anxiously waiting for his granddaughter-in-law!

"Father..." Lou Yicheng and Han Fengyi called together.

"Grandpa..." Lou Yi and Lou Xi also spoke in unison.

He Minghui nodded with a smile. The white-haired old man looked hale and hearty because of his happiness, and looked at Shu Rao and Ye Xingchen.

Both of them were very stiff, with their heads slightly lowered.

"Rao Rao, this is Grandpa." Lou Yi shook Shu Rao's hand affectionately and said with a smile.

Shu Rao raised her head slowly, and called out shyly, "Grandpa, Happy Chinese New Year."

"Okay, okay." He Minghui nodded repeatedly and smiled kindly.

Lou Xi also shook Ye Xingchen's hand, and introduced to the old man, "Grandpa, this is my wife, Ye Xingchen."

Ye Xingchen?
Ye Xingchen!
The smile on He Minghui's face froze suddenly.

Ye Xingchen also slowly raised his head and looked at the old man, his eyes were blank for a moment, his lips parted, but he couldn't say the greeting.

He Minghui also looked at her, his face became paler and paler, as if he was in excessive grief, his body took a few steps back, almost fell down, but he refused anyone's support, with a sad face, his eyes fixed on her and Lou Xi's interlocking fingers His hand, the hand holding the cane, suddenly trembled slightly.

Everyone sensed that something was wrong, but they didn't know why. Only Ye Xingchen knew that the perpetrator was... Lou Xi.

In an instant, she understood everything, and understood why my uncle's attitude towards Lou Xi was so bad. It turned out that my uncle knew a long time ago that it was he who killed her parents!

Her brain was empty, she lost all consciousness, she just felt that the sky suddenly became dark, as if the end of the world was coming, and she was so desperate that she would never see the sun tomorrow, everything in the world became nothingness, noise, silence , After all, I can't escape the sadness.

Her hand was still held by Lou Xi, but the temperature in his palm no longer made her feel warm. Their fingers intertwined, but she felt that the distance between them suddenly became far, far away.

If she had never met, if she had never loved, maybe she would not feel such pain, but now, who will tell her, how can she love him?

She gave up the prosecution back then, but it didn't mean she was truly relieved. It was just that she couldn't refuse the old man's plea.

On the day of the car accident, in the mortuary of the hospital, the old man knelt in front of her parents’ corpses, and even knelt down for her. He said that he would apologize to her for his grandson who was still in the emergency room. He said that if His grandson is still alive. Please don't sue him. She was in a mess at the time, but one thing is clear. Although it was a traffic accident, the police said it was because of drunk driving. She couldn't condone that kind of behavior!

However, before he could say no, the old man told her that his grandson had just graduated from West Point Military Academy. He was a talent cultivated by the country and the army with a lot of time and effort. He was one of the best young people in China. The best among military officers, the country, the army, and his family all need him. He will perform more and more important tasks for the motherland and the people. If she sues, his future will be ruined. The country and the army have been for several years. All my hard work will go to waste.
