A Miao told Shen Xinglan what Ling Lang said.
"You suspect me." He stared at her.
A Miao shot him a glare as her face dropped and she ignored him.
Shen Xinglan pursed his mouth and said, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that." He also bowed his head. How many years had he not said sorry...
"I'm just reminding you, no matter what you want, be careful," A Miao said and stood to go upstairs.
Shen Xinglan grabbed her hand. "It's not what you think."
The two of them were silent for a moment. Shen Xinglan slowly took her in his arms. "In fact, I don't know. Listen to me slowly."
"When I was a child, my mother used to say some puzzling things about a jade pendant. At that time, I didn't understand. Later, when I grew up, I generally understood what she meant."
Perhaps this jade pendant was the treasure of their family, and not only their family. There were several pieces, Shen Xinglan also did not know.
"It must be seven," A Miao said suddenly.
Shen Xinglan was a little surprised. "How do you know?"
"Because the seven pieces can be gathered together to summon the dragon!" A Miao said with a smile.
"I knew you would react this way." Shen Xinglan pinched her face. "That's why I wouldn't tell you."
A Miao looked at him. "So, not only you, but also others are looking for these jade pendants?"
"I don't know." Shen Xinglan scowled. "But since there's something else, someone must be looking for it..."
What he did not say was that after the last auction, he began to suspect one person, Jiang Hua. His appearance was too coincidental, especially after the robbers were all killed.
Shen Xinglan did not tell A Miao. He knew that in A Miao's heart, Jiang Hua was even her only friend...
"You don't have to worry about this. Do you have to go to school tomorrow?"
A Miao extended her arm to him and said, "It's all right."
"Don't pick at it, let the scab fall off," Shen Xinglan said while he glanced at her.
Soon after, A Miao's life suddenly became normal. She went to school every day and even Ji Xue who came out from time to time before disappeared.
Soon it was the end of June, the day before summer vacation. She packed up all her textbooks, and then Shen Xinglan would take her back to the villa.
"A Miao!" At the school entrance, she was stopped.
"Zhou Xiao..." She looked at the woman in front of her with a complicated expression.
Wearing a big black vest and dirty jeans, her feet were actually pedaling a pair of slippers, not to mention her disheveled hair and yellow complexion, she looked 10 years older.
"Are you happy? Are you happy to see me like this?" Zhou Xiao's voice trembled slightly and his eyes were fixed on A Miao.
"I think you've made a mistake. I have nothing to do with whether you are good or bad." A Miao stepped back, wondering if it was her misperception, but Zhou Xiao seemed to have a strange smell.
Zhou Xiao's face was grim. "But you're the one who hurt me, it's all you!"
"What happened to you?" A Miao looked at her carefully.
Zhou Xiao suddenly grabbed her hand and said, "A Miao, please help me and give me some money. I borrow it from you, and I will give it back."
"What do you want money for?" A Miao pushed her away with a frown. Who knew that Zhou Xiao would fall to the ground, she had no energy.
What was even more unexpected was that Zhou Xiao was not angry at all. Instead, she directly hugged A Miao's leg. "I beg you to give me money. I need money!"
"Get up first."
The students around pointed them. A Miao's status in the school was known to everyone, and they still did not know what would happen if they saw this scene today.
The two of them were tearing at each other when a Maybach came by quickly. After the brakes were applied, Shen Xinglan walked over to A Miao with a black face and kicked Zhou Xiao away.
"Do you want to die?" His voice was like an icy blade in a cold wind. Zhou Xiao shivered on the ground.
A Miao took his arm and said, "Forget it. Let's go."
When they got in the car, Zhou Xiao stumbled to her feet and tried to rush at him. Unfortunately, Shen II was faster and rushed out with one foot on the accelerator.
"There seems to be something wrong with her." A Miao saw from the window that Zhou Xiao was still crying for money.
Shen Xinglan naturally also heard it. "Once you give it to her the first time, there will be a second time."
"But why does she need money so badly?" A Miao said suspiciously, "I also spoke to Auntie Song on the phone the other day. The baozi shop business is stable. There is enough for Zhou Xiao's living expenses."
"If you're worried, I'll have someone check it out." Shen Xinglan took her hand. "But you have to consider whether or not you want to help her."
In the end, they still did not know the reason, Song Baohua called in the evening.
"A Miao, is Zhou Xiao with you?"
"No," A Miao thought of the previous events and said, "but she came to school to find me at noon. Hasn't she returned yet?"
Song Baohua's voice was angry and full of urgency. "She came back and went out again. A few people said just now that the store had been transferred and they gave me three days to move out."
"How is that possible?" A Miao's eyes shone with a fierce expression. "Is it..."
"It was that damned girl!" Song Baohua gasped. "She signed the contract and now the store is no longer ours."
A Miao hurriedly put forth an idea. "Auntie Song, don't worry. I'll contact the landlord first and then go to Zhou Xiao. Just wait at home and don't go anywhere. In case she goes back by herself, you will call me immediately."
Comforting Song Baohua well, A Miao put down the phone and ran into the study to find Shen Xinglan, where Shen I was inside reporting on work.
"Just in time, listen to him." Shen Xinglan held out his hand to pull her to sit down.
Shen I's expression was somewhat helpless. "Young lady, your friend has contracted a very serious venereal disease."
"..." A Miao stared blankly, not knowing how to react.
"It should be from that previous time, and I don't know who it is among those guys." Shen I went on to say, "It wasn't really serious at first, but Zhou Xiao also didn't know if she had a bad brain and went to that small clinic."
It was also very simple. Zhou Xiao went to the hospital for an examination after she discovered that something was wrong with her body. She was a young girl with this kind of disease, and the doctors and nurses naturally did not treat her well.
She was also afraid that others would know that she had a sexually transmitted disease, so she found a small advertisement on the street and went to a private clinic. Who knew that the more money she spent, the more serious the disease would become.
"She still had hundreds of thousands in her hand, and all of it got tossed in." Shen I shrugged his shoulders and said, "Even the previous bags of jewelry were sold."
A Miao sighed. "It seems that she had no way out, so she ran to me for money."
Because Zhou Xiao did not get any money from her, she started to notice the store.
"Anyway, find her first," A Miao said while looking at Shen Xinglan.
Shen Xinglan gave Shen I a look.
"Miss, she is in the hospital."
When A Miao arrived at the hospital, Zhou Xiao had closed her eyes forever. She took the money from the transfer of the shop to the hospital, but she encountered a bag snatcher along the way.
"She didn't give up anyway. As a result, she was pushed into the road and a car came along..." said Shen I as he opened the door. Zhou Xiao was lying on the bed under a white sheet.
"I have already notified Song Baohua for you." Shen Xinglan clutched her hand.
A Miao approached the hospital bed slowly. "I want to see her."
Shen I took a look at Shen Xinglan, who nodded.
The white sheet was pulled back. Zhou Xiao lay there quietly with her eyes closed and some bruises on her face.
"It's not your fault, it was an accident." Shen Xinglan grabbed A Miao's shoulders and shook her.
A Miao silently shed tears. She shook her head and sobbed. "I should have given her money. I didn't expect that she would... she would do this..."
"A Miao!" Shen Xinglan frowned. "Calm down."
A Miao finally cried out loud, and the more she cried, the deeper it became. "I killed her, I killed her..."
"It wasn't you." From the door suddenly came the voice of Song Baohua.
"Auntie Song..." A Miao bit her lip and felt ashamed to see Song Baohua.
Song Baohua walked in step by step, stroked Zhou Xiao's face, and said, "She failed herself, she killed herself."
When she got to the end, she was already sobbing. After all, she was her own daughter. No matter how unworthy she was, she was also her only daughter raised since childhood.
A Miao went into the corner and kept crying. In the end, Shen I took Song Baohua to take care of the funeral affairs, and Shen Xinglan was ready to take A Miao back.
"Shen!" To his surprise, he saw Le Yi in the corridor.
Le Yi was not alone, but with a large group of people who were pushing an operating bed, on which lay a man covered in blood.
"I'll talk about it later. I'm going to the operating room now." Le Yi hurriedly said hello and followed the men.
Back at the villa, it was not at all easy to coax A Miao to fall asleep. She had been having nightmares and sleep was no comfort. Shen Xinglan would hug her and sleep together with her until dawn.
When A Miao moved, Shen Xinglan woke up.
"Don't rub your eyes." A Miao's hand was held by him.
Shen Xinglan got up and went into the bathroom. "Let me get you a towel."
A Miao's eyes were red and swollen. She sat with her face covered in her hands until a cold towel was applied to her face before opening her eyes. "I'm sorry, did you not rest well last night?"
"It's okay. I won't go to the office today." Shen Xinglan waited for her to wipe her face and pushed her into the bathroom. "If you want to go out, take a bath first."
"I..." A Miao stammered while stretching her brain. "I just want to see her go, and Auntie Song is alone..."
Shen Xinglan waved his hand. "Take a shower and I will accompany you later."
Because Song Baohua and her daughter had no other relatives, Zhou Xiao was buried the next day. Shen I arranged everything, from the cemetery to the funeral.
"Auntie Song, I will be your daughter in the future." In front of the tombstone, A Miao promised Song Baohua. "I'll serve you in your old age."
Song Baohua put the flowers on the ground and stood up. "Don't put all this on yourself. Xiaoxiao's temper would have created an accident sooner or later. At least I won't have to worry about her anymore."
"As for me, you don't have to worry." Song Baohua took her hand. "I've been feeling much better since the operation. Mr. Shen's subordinates have already taken the store back."
A Miao had tears in her eyes as she said, "But I want to take care of you."
"Then take care of me when I get old. I'm not old yet!" Song Baohua hugged her. "Come and see me later."
On her way back from the cemetery, A Miao remembered something. "Did we see Le Yi in the hospital yesterday?"

I won't go to the office today." Shen Xinglan waited for her to wipe her face and pushed her into the bathroom. "If you want to go out, take a bath first.""I..." A Miao stammered while stretching her brain. "I just want to see her go, and Auntie Song is alone..."Shen Xinglan waved his hand. "Take a shower and I will accompany you later."Because Song Baohua and her daughter had no other relatives, Zhou Xiao was buried the next day. Shen I arranged everything, from the cemetery to the funeral."Auntie Song, I will be your daughter in the future." In front of the tombstone, A Miao promised Song Baohua. "I'll serve you in your old age."Song Baohua put the flowers on the ground and stood up. "Don't put all this on yourself. Xiaoxiao's temper would have created an accident sooner or later. At least I won't have to worry about her anymore.""As for me, you don't have to worry." Song Baohua took her hand. "I've been feeling much better since the operation. Mr. Shen's subordinates have already taken the store back."A Miao had tears in her eyes as she said, "But I want to take care of you.""Then take care of me when I get old. I'm not old yet!" Song Baohua hugged her. "Come and see me later."On her way back from the cemetery, A Miao remembered something. "Did we see Le Yi in the hospital yesterday?"-----------------
