I asked him to see a movie.

"You're silly! You can tell by looking at the lower half of that officer's face, it looks exactly like Wei Dongheng ...... surely they are all from the Wei family ......"

"I heard Wei Dongheng was fighting with his family in the dorms before, and it looks like he's not coming to school for the last semester of his senior year, and his dad told him to go to Northwestern."

"What's the point of going to the Northwest?"

"I don't know ...... but isn't his dad himself the head of the western war zone? Probably thought his son was too much of a loser and grabbed him so he could show him some color."

"...... Wei Dongheng that hooligan nature, can he agree to ......"

The students muttered as they walked past the military jeep.

"...... Ergo."

"Oh, here we go." The officer turned around, smiling.

In front of him stood Wei Dongheng with a cold face.

"I sent you the assembly time is three o'clock sharp, you really become, four o'clock fifteen only came out. If you were in our army, I'd have to throw you into the mountains and let you run a drill, fifteen kilometers to start, looking at you as my brother's sake, barely a discount, ten kilometers must be."

Wei Dongheng seemed to be in a bad mood, and he said, "Don't try to control me with your bullshit."

"Aigoo, I wouldn't dare to take care of you, I'm not qualified." Second Brother laughed heartily, "Well, you'll be lucky to have our father in charge of you."

"Don't you talk to me about that old bastard."

"Okay, don't mention it." The second brother is quite happy, probably the army stayed for a long time, out of the wind especially excited, especially to come or this kind of beauty like clouds of art school, he can not help but a little bit of bitch, "Hey, I ask you ah."

"What the hell!" Wei Dongheng was very resistant to his brother's greasy behavior, and pressed his brother's head to push him away.

Ergo blinks, "What about that little beauty you were talking to?"

"......"

"You didn't come for so long just now, did you say goodbye to someone? Why don't you just bring it here for me to see, it's so strange."

"Look at your mom! How can you watch?"

Wei Dongheng gruffly, unloaded the book bag directly fell on his second brother s face.

The second brother finally could not hold back his energy, there gaga maniacal laughter: "Fuck Lao San, you also have today, you are crying, right? As soon as I look at your eyes I know that you have cried, hey seriously, why don't you call her over, I'll treat her to a meal and we'll go again, or else you'll be gone for most of the year ......"

"It's not like I'm going to be a soldier! I'm going to be a fucking laborer for Commander Wei! And I can't come back lol?"

Ergo tsked, "Hang on."

"Fuck off you!"

"You sure you don't want to bring a little beauty to meet?"

"Get out!"

.

Meanwhile, in the unoccupied multimedia classroom at HU, Xie Xue wiped her tears, stabilized her emotions, and walked out alone, locking the classroom door.

There were no exams scheduled for this building, and it was empty and uninteresting.

She was in a trance and stood frozen on the porch for a few moments, watching the silver-haired boy get into the military jeep, which roared away and soon disappeared out of sight at the end of the boulevard.

She couldn't help the tears from falling again, but she lifted her hand to see the new ring on her finger and tried to calm herself again.

It's okay ...... It's only for six months ......

She fumed for a while, then carried her bag down the stairs alone as if she had lost her soul, but she didn't expect to meet two people who were completely outside her expectations in the open grass outside the school building.

Xie Xue was so sad that she didn't get over it at first.

But after a few seconds she suddenly realized that something was wrong-

Those two are He Yu and ...... her brother?

The combination was so strange it completely dragged Xie Xue out of her sadness, and she rubbed her eyes to make sure she wasn't mistaken-but hadn't the two of them quarreled earlier?

Now how do you walk out of an empty classroom alone like that? And pulling at each other?

"You go away."

"I'll give you a ride."

"Go."

"I--"

"Are you leaving or not."

Xie Qingcheng had been talking coldly, without much expression, and at a corner, Xie Qingcheng violently pushed He Yu away. His expression was too cold, his eyes were too sharp, and his tone was undeniable, with no room for discussion.

He Yu was pushed hard by him, and some cold color finally appeared on his face.

He just watched from where he was, while Xie Qingcheng left without looking back.

"......"

He Yu watched as Xie Qingcheng's figure disappeared at the end of the stairs, and when he turned back, he ran right into Xie Xue, who hadn't had time to hide.

At that moment, He Yu's expression became strange, as if he had been caught doing something wrong.

"Why are you here?"

It was the first time the two of them had been alone since they had broken up their fight. They'd seen each other at other times, but they'd been in class.

Xie Xue was in a bad mood, and she just happened to catch the animal that came to her door to vent. She snapped, "I should be the one to ask you this, why don't you go to the exams here? What were you and my brother doing just now?"

"...... We didn't do anything."

"You lie!" Xie Xue got fierce, "There's no way he'd come to a place like this with you where there's no one else for no reason, are you bullying him again?"

"I bullied him." He Yu sighed, "Sister, I can bully him? If you were watching just now, you should have seen what kind of attitude he had, I'm the one who's being hollered at, right?"

Xie Xue hesitated.

Although the scene just now was strange, but listening to the conversation between the two, it was indeed her brother's attitude that was worse. He Yu and the previous time she overheard in the parking lot, compared to a lot of mild, parking lot that time is He Yu in damage, insulting Xie Qingcheng, this time it is Xie Qingcheng scolding He Yu listening, not even a harsh words back.

Xie Xue's taut nerves eased some, "That, that's true."

She glared at He Yu again, "I don't think you'd dare - why didn't you go to the exam?"

"It was so easy, I turned in my paper early."

"......"

"Teacher, you don't even think it's a problem to turn in your paper early, do you?"

"You turned in your paper early to meet my brother?" Xie Xue catches a hint of fishy odor and stares at He Yu warily.

"I was almost done writing just in time to see him walk past outside."

"So you and he don't fight anymore?"

"...... hmmm."

"This is more or less." Xie Xue muttered, "You were really not a thing back then, he was out of that kind of thing, and you were still scolding him along with outsiders ......"

He Yu faded, "I don't feel I did wrong in that case."

Xie Xue's temper that had just come down rubbed up again, "What did you say?"

"You saw the video from the Cantonment Tower, he said those things red-handedly, the facts were right there in front of him, and there's no excuse for him to be blamed as a doctor."

"He Yu! So you haven't changed much at all!" Xie Xue was greatly enraged, "What kind of beastly words are you saying in a civilized manner! You have been with him for so many years, don't you know what kind of person he is? Do you have so little trust and understanding of him ...... you have so little trust and understanding of him?"

"How I didn't trust him." He Yu said, "I used to, very, very much trust him."

And the second half of the sentence, which He Yu didn't tell Xie Xue--

I'm not like you guys, you're normal people, you haven't experienced a lot of things and don't know how painful it is to be in the middle of it.

So what Xie Qingcheng said may not sound like much to you.

In my case it stings and cones.

Not to mention all the chat logs, contract deception ...... all these things you do not know, of course you can choose to believe him without any problem.

I can't do it.

"But the truth is the truth."

"Then what you see, what you hear, must be the truth?" Xie Xue yelled, "The truth is that my brother he's the only one who knows what's going on, right? Yes! He left the hospital on his own, shortly after Qin Ciyan died, but do you think he was in a good mood?"

"He resigned from the hospital and came back then, and my sister-in-law asked him what he was going to do in the future, and you only had to have seen the look in his eyes at that time-- He Yu, you only had to have seen the look in his eyes at that time, and you wouldn't have said that he got relief!"

"He's not telling the truth, he didn't run home because he was scared!"

Xie Xue's voice raspy, inside the birth of too much aggression and persistence.

"His eyes don't lie, there was only pain in his eyes then, no fear ......"

She had taken on a sobbing tone by the end of her sentence.

Maybe she wanted to talk to everyone about it, but she knew that not many people would believe her. When she meets He Yu, the sadness that has been pent up for so long breaks through.

She lowered her head, took her hand and desperately wiped her eyes, wiped her eyes that she had only just shed tears for Wei Dongheng, this time but again for Xie Qingcheng, she sobbed and cried out, "I ...... my brother he, he is not a deserter ......!!!"

My brother he's not a deserter.

The girl was sobbing as she said this.

--

Not a deserter?

......

Then why did he leave?

On vacation, He Yu spent many days at his home, and whenever he was free, Xie Xue's sobbing, broken confession echoed in his ears.

Once again he was caught up in the contemplation of this question that had tormented him for so long before.

Xie Xue's words had undoubtedly touched him in some way.

Although every time he thinks back to the information he read, it is a bone-chilling torture for He Yu.

But at the slightest glimmer of light, he would mothball his way there again.

Want to touch the truth, even if it turns to ashes.

In this self-torture, He Yu thought over and over again that the information, the evidence, all pointed to Xie Qingcheng's weakness and escape, what else could be hidden?

Xie Xue said, "If you had seen the look in his eyes at that moment, you wouldn't say he got relief."

This is completely contrary to all of He Yu's current evidence. In his view, after Xie Qingcheng left the hospital, he should have been happy, he should have been happy, and he should have been glad that he had survived and could live in peace and prosperity.

But Xie Xue said he had a pained look in his eyes.

...... So could Xie Xue have misread it?

Could it be that Xie Xue, like him in the old days, was too deeply filtered and trusting of Xie Qingcheng, so she was deceived by Xie Qingcheng's appearance?

He Yu doesn't know.

But her words did throw a heavy stone in his heart, sending ripples through what had been congealed death.

He Yu suddenly longed to know Xie Qingcheng's true state at that time - the state that was revealed.

But now Xie Qingcheng will never be able to talk to him about this matter.

He could only toss and turn all by himself thinking about these conversations, and he wondered if - Xie Qingcheng ...... was still hiding something.

If so, is what Xie Qingcheng is hiding good? Or bad?

That man's a flesh and blood forged human heart, just how many more unseen secrets are hidden ......

"He Yu."

As she was rambling on, a woman's voice sounded outside the bedroom door.

He Yu was stunned for a moment before realizing it was his mother.

Mr. Lu has a lot of work to do, but recently he often stayed in the old mansion in Huzhou. At first, she said that she wanted to accompany herself more, He Yu also did not take it seriously, as she casually swing, I did not expect that she really did not go this time, not only did not go, Mr. Lu also personally wash his hands and make soup, and from time to time, he wanted to talk about his heart with his eldest son.

He Yu is very uncomfortable.

Still, he opened the door and lowered his eyelids to look at the chubby noblewoman, "Mom, what's wrong?"

"I'm ...... not a little worried seeing as you've been shutting yourself up inside." Lv Zhishu sidled his face, trying to look past He Yu into his curtained-off interior.

He Yu stood immovably off to the side, blocking the door.

"I always do, you don't have to be nervous."

"Mom is also concerned about you ...... night mom booked a hotel, that hotel's braised meat is a masterpiece, sometimes ah, this more ordinary food, the more difficult to do good, once done good it, that is a rare enjoyment. Do you want to--"

"I'm going out for the evening for something."

Lv Zhishu's smile faltered slightly, but the traces of that near-fall were quickly glued back onto her plump face by her sticky disposition. Her cheeks twitched with some pity in her hypocrisy.

"He Yu, mom has been back for so long, and you don't stay with mom to talk more ......"

"...... next time." He Yu said, "Next time for sure."

He could not adapt to such a fat and heavy warmth, like a vegetarian used to suddenly swallowed a mouthful of trembling fat, choked in the throat does not hurt, but just greasy nausea.

He put on a jacket and left the house under Lv Zhishu's complicated gaze.

He Yu drove his own car, aimlessly all the way, but probably because he had been thinking about Xie Qingcheng, so when he looked back, he realized that he had already driven to the neighborhood of Stranger Rain Lane.

He Yu simply pulled over when he saw two men coming out of a nearby diner, one after the other, squeaking through the snow.

It's Xie Xue and Xie Qingcheng.

He Yu originally wanted to get off the car and go to Xie Qingcheng's house, but thought that Xie Xue was still there and there were many inconveniences, so he took his cell phone off the car mount, thought about it, and sent a message to Xie Qingcheng.

He didn't know what to send, his eyes glanced at the street posters advertising New Year's Eve blockbusters, so he lowered his eyelashes and typed, asking Xie Qingcheng if he was going to see a movie.

Xie Qingcheng didn't answer him.

He Yu sends again, "My car is across the street from your house."

Xie Qingcheng replied, "I'm not at home."

"Then who was that guy at the door with Xie Xue eating spicy hot pot?"

"......"

"Come out. I'm not doing anything else today, just watching a movie, what are you hiding from me for."

"There's nothing else between me and you."

He Yu is on fire.

"Xie Qingcheng You can only meet me for a date, right? That's fine, then if you want to do it in a movie theater, I can satisfy you too."

"......"

After typing these words, He Yu added: "If you don't want to see me, I'll come over to you. You can figure out how to explain it to Xie Xue yourself."

He knows that this trick is old and unreasonable, but it is very effective against Xie Qingcheng.

Xie Qingcheng is a very clear minded person, so between "watching a movie" and "arousing Xie Xue's suspicion", he would definitely choose the former.

Sure enough, it wasn't long before Xie Qingcheng came out, and although his face was very ugly, he got into He Yu's car and threw the door shut with a bang, taking the door of a perfectly good supercar and throwing it out of the way of a cab pickup.

He Yu didn't get angry and smiled, "Where are you going, honored guest?"

Xie Qingcheng didn't want to joke with him at all and said coldly, "Didn't you want me to watch a movie with you?"

"Which theater do you want to go to?"

"It's all fucking with you."

.

At the same time, on a small island on the high seas.

The fugitive suspect Jiang Liping is comfortably basking in the sun, heading for his villa on the island.

As she walked to the front door, she encountered a wrinkled woman, who was sitting in a wheelchair, looking in poor spirits, her breath dying, like a wilting flower, lifeless.

Hearing her approach, the woman opened her eyes slightly, almost longingly, and looked for a moment at her young, beautiful features.

She turned her gaze to the distant horizon, "...... Hey, I don't have time for this."

Jiang Liping stopped his footsteps, respectfully saluted her, and softly advised, "Anthony is still outside, he went to look for the data records of the 'First Emperor' for you according to Mr. Duan's instructions, he will definitely be able to find them."

"It's too late." The woman said, in a voice that sounded like it was coming from a smothered old stereo.

"The first emperor ...... is just a legend in the end, it is the most comprehensive simulation system for RN-13 takers, it is just a set of data, it is too late to bring it back and study it again now, there is no way to make me return to my original appearance."

Jiang Liping : "...... won't, there is still hope ...... Duan is always trying to find a way, you don't have to be so sad."

The woman snorted, "Sadness? Nah. There is no way to stop me from dying, but the technology that will keep me alive, even without the First Emperor data, is what we have ......"

"It's just that." She paused and gave her a grim, distressed look, "I don't want to live that way. Do you understand? I hate men."

Jiang Liping: "......"

"What's the point of telling you this." The old woman stared at her fixedly for a few seconds and turned her eyes away, "You're just a dog licking that old man Huang Zhilong. I don't know what's so good about him that he charmed you like this."

Jiang Liping forced a smile.

"By the way, your family's Huang Zhilong's new movie, it's opening soon, right?"

"Uh-huh."

"So what are you going to do?"

"I'll find a way to go back to my country and hide back at the company's safe house. There are some things in the company that only I can do most reliably, and Mr. Huang needs me."

The old woman grunted again, "You are quite the lover."

Jiang Liping was silent.

The old woman continued to look at the sea again, "There are still a few weeks la ...... If we can't find the data of the first emperor again, then we have to carry out the operation. That boy's body is still fresh, if it drags on, I'm afraid it won't work well."

"......"

"If you go back, find that old cobbler in Huzhou for me and order me a pair of red high heels to bring by that boy's feet." The old woman said, "Be like the ones in the old Hong Kong movies, the kind you always wear. In our time, it was popular to dress like that ......"

Jiang Liping lowered his eyelids, "Yes. Ma'am."
