Chapter 168
When I returned to my home, I saw my father sitting in the living room watching TV with a small teapot and drinking tea leisurely. When I saw Ouyang Bei come in, I looked up at her and said, "I'm back. Let's eat at home."
?”
"Well, I've eaten. Where's Ouyang Qing?" Ouyang Bei sat down on the sofa opposite his father, picked up the fruit on the coffee table and took a bite, "You're not going to the old location again, are you? How's going on there? Why not?
Did you mention what happened there again? Everyone is still very curious, and some people in the newspapers keep asking questions——"
"Very good." Ouyang Ruixiang continued to watch TV, "Your brother is with Xiaomin, he must have gone to dinner."
"Oh." Ouyang Bei hesitated and did not say anything about the red candle. That thing was very evil. She felt that Du Hui today was just like his father some time ago, indescribably restless. "Did he go and see it again?"
Xiao Wan? However, I can’t blame him, I’ve always liked Xiao Wan so much, and it’s normal that I can’t let go.”
"Well." Ouyang Ruixiang said lightly, without looking at Ouyang Bei, he slowly took a sip of tea, "What are you going to do? Do you want to continue to have an ambiguous relationship with that Du Hui?"
Ouyang Bei was stunned and looked at her father. Just as she was about to say something, she saw her father turning to look at her with deep reproach in his eyes.
"It's okay, I'm just familiar with him. He is my boss and I am his personal financial advisor. Of course, it will cause some gossip. Dad, don't think too much, don't worry." Ouyang Bei smiled, but her eyes were no longer there.
He stayed on his father and looked away, "Who did you listen to? This city is small, and even the slightest thing can spread so outrageously."
"Is that so?" Ouyang Ruixiang said slowly, his expression looked quite unhappy, but he endured it and did not want to get angry, "I am your father, how can I not be aware of your thoughts? Some time ago, due to work
I ignored you because I didn’t expect that you don’t know how to restrain yourself at all. Don’t overdo some things. Du Hui is not someone you can have, and he doesn’t deserve you to spend so much of your youth!”
"Dad -" Ouyang Bei was a little embarrassed and muttered unhappily, "Okay, it's okay. Where is my mother?"
"She is taking a bath." Ouyang Ruixiang sighed, hesitated, and did not continue. His daughter is older and some things are really unspeakable. What will happen if he does? She is still the same! What is so good about that Du Hui?
Yes, is my daughter worthy of this?!
There were footsteps outside the door. Seeing Ouyang Qing come in, Ouyang Bei seemed to have seen a savior. In the heart of a father, he always valued his son more, and immediately greeted him with a smile, "Ouyang Qing, why are you back? Hey, it seems like you have been drunk.
,Did something happen? Did you quarrel with Xiaowan again? Haha, forget it, now that I have someone I like, don’t bother—"
Ouyang Qing's face was still heavily drunk, and he looked a little inexplicably tired. He sat down on the sofa and didn't say anything for a long time, staring at the TV in a daze. He didn't know how he woke up, just like he didn't know how he woke up.
He didn't seem to have drunk too much, so why did he suddenly fall asleep? And Xiao Min? If Xinrou really drank too much and fell asleep, it would be forgivable, but he and Xiao Min
Min——
"Why are you so dazed?" Ouyang Bei smiled and patted her brother on the shoulder.
"It's okay." Ouyang Qing hesitated and shook his head slightly, "It's just that my head hurts. When did you come back? Where is Du Hui? Are you still with him? He has already killed Chi Xiaoman, don't you?
Will you continue to be with him?"
Ouyang Bei smiled awkwardly and said, "Okay, stop meddling in my business. Just mind your own affairs and Xiaowan's. Isn't she with you?"
"No." Ouyang Qing sounded a little lonely, "She seems to have had an quarrel with Sima, but she still seems to like him very much, and he is the only one in her heart."
The room was a little quiet for a while. Ouyang Bei didn't know what to say. After sitting for a while, she interrupted the topic and said, "How did you come back? Did you drive by yourself? Are you drunk like this?"
"The little boss asked someone to drive Xiaomin and I home. By the way, Xiaomin bought a new car. It's very beautiful. He seems to have something on his mind too. He seems to care about Xiaowan. Xiaowan is really lucky to have a brother like him.
." Ouyang Qing sighed and said slowly.
"You mean I'm not a good sister and don't care enough about you?" Ouyang Bei said with a smile, "I'm an open-minded sister. I think this is your private matter, so I don't ask. In fact, even if it's Xiaowan, she
If you like Sima, as long as they are not together, you still have hope. You are just too weak and passive. You can fight for it. Even if you don't get together in the end, as long as you work hard, in the future, you will be the best.
I won’t regret it. There is no way to explain feelings clearly in theory. By the way, how is Xiaoman doing now? Is she feeling better emotionally? In fact, it’s a good thing that she left Du Hui now. Du Hui’s
The boy is too scheming, and she is not something that a silly girl can deal with. It is better to suffer now than to suffer someone who will really like her in the future, than to suffer for a lifetime. This is called long-term pain rather than short-term pain."
Ouyang Qing sighed again, thought for a long time, and then said slowly: "It doesn't matter how I am, as long as Xiaowan feels happy, if I can't give her happiness, then let Sima give her happiness, for me
For me, the most important thing is that she can be happy, not that I must give her happiness, I will always be there, as long as she needs it, I will always be there."
"What a fool." Ouyang Bei patted her brother on the back and sighed, "You, if you had been more careful at that time, you might have married Xiao Wan back home and lived a happy life, but now you can't
Okay, forget it, you can think whatever you want, I'm too lazy to care about you, I'm going to rest. I'm so tired."
Ouyang Bei yawned, stood up from the sofa, walked into her room, closed the door, and frowned slightly. She would never let Du Hui go. He didn't have to give her future promises.
, refused to give her a marriage and a family, but she absolutely could not forgive his deception. He dared to deceive her! Being mixed up with that Jiang Ping! It was simply a shame and a great humiliation!
It was dawn and the weather was bad. Ouyang Ruixiang walked into the old site. It was strange that since the red candle was lost, the old site seemed to have suddenly lost its aura, just like an ordinary ancient tomb. He was an archaeologist, and he knew that
This old site ceased to exist as the red candle burned out. That night, while in a coma, the red candle burned out. After he woke up, he suddenly felt depressed and too lazy to move. Facing the old site, he had no mood at all.
.
The painting also disappeared inexplicably, leaving only a blank tear-stained paper hanging quietly on the wall, as if everything had never happened.
Strangely, Chi Xiaomin was here, sitting there in a depressed mood, staring at the old site in a daze, seemingly feeling the same as him.
"Xiao Min, why did you come so early? Didn't you say that you don't have to go very early during this period?" Ouyang Ruixiang said gently, "As long as those workers work hard, it's okay. It's too long.
A lot of things have melted into the soil, and we can't seem to find anything. Everything disappeared with the disappearance of the red candle."
Chi Xiaomin was stunned for a moment and looked up at his instructor. He didn't seem to understand what he was talking about. After a long time, he said in a daze: "Professor, I was just in a daze."
Professor Ouyang sat down opposite him, looked at the wall with no portraits in front of him, sighed, and said slowly: "It seems like I had a dream. It turned out that I have many desires in my heart. The desire can have miracles, and I can know this
All the past and secrets of the old site, but now, only a kind of confusion is left. Is Xiaowan okay? She is almost the only miracle we can expect from the old site. I wonder if she can still have a spiritual connection with the old site?
"
"Xiao Wan?" Chi Xiaomin looked hesitant. After thinking for a while, he said, "She is not in a good mood and body now, so don't let her show up again. I'm still worried whether her current condition is the same as the old one.
Related, she should have been very happy, but now - Professor, do we want to continue? Is the story of this old site destined to be buried in the soil? We don't understand, so -"
Ouyang Ruixiang sighed and lit a cigarette. He usually did not smoke, but rarely, when he was in a particularly bad mood, he would smoke two.
"I also want to give up." After taking two puffs of cigarette, Professor Ouyang said hesitantly, "However, in my heart, I am always a little reluctant. I always believe that as long as I work harder, everything will be revealed. Reality will really happen.
Hit people."
Chi Xiaomin smiled bitterly, reality?! He has no relationship with Chi Xiaowan now, but he found that he likes Chi Xiaowan, not between brother and sister, but between men and women! This is
Reality! "Yes, Professor, shouldn't we disturb this old site? A lot of things have happened and a lot has changed."
Just as he was talking, Ouyang Qing walked in from the outside, his face a little tired, he must not have had a good rest last night, "Hey, you all came early, by the way, Xiaomin, did you see Xiaowan last night? How was she?"
Is it better?"
"No, I didn't go home." Chi Xiaomin said in a depressed voice.
"I called Sister Xiaoman this morning and wanted to ask her about Xiaowan's situation, but no one answered the phone and her phone seemed to be turned off." Ouyang Qing hesitated and said softly, "I'll call you today.
Home, it seems that Uncle Chi is not in good spirits. Is there something that happened that you don’t know about? I asked if Sister Xiaoman was there, and he seemed a little unnatural. "
"I just broke up with Du Hui, so I must be in a bad mood." Chi Xiaomin said disapprovingly, "She is a highly educated guy, it is impossible that she can't figure this out, not to mention that she and Du Hui just had a good relationship.
, there is no substantial development, so it should be fine.”
There seemed to be light footsteps, as if someone had walked in. The three people raised their heads and looked at the door at the same time. A thin and quiet figure stood in the dim light. The sky outside was overcast, and there was a faint sound of wind.
And the chill, the tea placed on the platform has a faint steam coming out, quietly rising in front of everyone's sight.
"Xiao Wan," Chi Xiaomin was stunned for a moment and looked at the person who came. She looked so thin, as if she had passed by overnight, "What are you doing here? You look so bad. Why don't you go home and rest quickly?"
There is nothing I need your help with here, if anything happens, I will contact you."
Chi Xiaowan smiled politely. She smiled so hard that it was hard to tell whether it was true or not. The smile was faint on her face. "I want to come over and have a look. It makes me feel like I belong here."
Ouyang Ruixiang smiled bitterly, "There are no miracles here anymore. Ever since the red candle burned out, the aura here seems to have suddenly disappeared, and I'm no longer interested. It's just normal archeology, and you may be the only one."
You can sense the people here, but this place suddenly looks like any discovery of an ancient tomb, can you still feel anything?"
Looking at the lonely old site, there used to be an inexplicable and weird atmosphere here, but now it is really much lonely. Chi Xiaowan felt a little sad, the red candle seemed to be the only reason for the existence of the old site, and the existence here seemed to be just for the red candle.
, the red candle is gone, and the old site no longer has a reason to exist. "I don't know, I just feel that it suddenly feels a lot lonely."
"Lonely?" Ouyang Ruixiang was stunned for a moment. This word was exactly the feeling of the old place at this time. "Yes, it really feels like this."
Chi Xiaowan stood quietly. This was the only way she could find Cong Yi'er. She had to find Cong Yi'er. That was the only way to make Sima happy! She closed her eyes, tears gently filling her eyes.
Turning, trying hard not to leak out, my heart is calling softly: Cong Yi'er, where are you? How can I find you? Do you know that you are Sima's only one, if he can be happy, I would rather leave your existence.
There was no response from the old site, only the quiet, slightly humid air flowing quietly around her. Professor Ouyang, Ouyang Qing and Chi Xiaomin stared at Chi Xiaowan at the same time, breathing so quietly that they could not be heard, holding their breaths,
He seems to be expecting something.
