C64 Xia Family Old House

"It's too late to know."

When Shen Ruo Bai thought about how the woman was still looking at him when the man left, she couldn't help but feel angry in her heart. At this moment, she was venting all her anger on her.

The night was silent, and there was not a single star in the sky.

"Stop the car."

With a faint voice, the black car stopped by the river.

The imposing man got out of the car and walked to the riverside step by step. The night wind blew across his face, making him feel a little cold. The man took off his coat and held it in his hand. Looking at the vast night sky above the river, he was slightly lost in thought.

Mr. Bodyguard followed him and frowned slightly. The man seemed to be able to sense his displeasure and froze on the spot.

He just looked at his boss with a puzzled expression. Ever since he bumped into that woman at the bar, the boss seemed to have changed a little.

From time to time, he would be lost in thought. From time to time, he would be lost in thoughts. He always looked like he had a lot on his mind. Besides, his boss never let women be present when he was talking business, but this time, he actually made an exception for himself.

The cool breeze of the night woke him up. In his life, there was nothing he couldn't get. It was just a matter of time.

He suddenly curled his lips.

Xia Jing decided to ignore Shen Ruo Bai.

This man had been impudent again and again and had challenged her bottom line. She could not forgive him so easily.

No matter how much Shen Ruo Bai coaxed her, no matter how much he swore that he would never force her again, it was still useless. She kept turning her face away angrily, not looking at him, not talking to him.

She wanted to treat him like air.

Helpless, Shen Ruo Bai stuffed her into the car, drove her for almost ten hours and brought her back to the Xia Family Mansion.

"What? Didn't you always want to come back and take a look? It's rare for you to come back now, so why aren't you getting out of the car? "Shen Ruo Bai quit smoking for Xia Jing, and I haven't touched her in front of her for several years. However, at this time, she lit up a cigarette and started smoking it by herself. She looked a little irritated. It was just like the look of annoyance on his face every time Xia Jing begged him to bring her back.

Xia Jing choked on the cigarette smoke and coughed a few times. She didn't understand why every time she asked Shen Ruo Bai to take her back to the Xia Family Residence, he would refuse her so rudely. Was it because he didn't want her to remember the past, or because he didn't want to remember the past?

But in the end, it was the Xia Family that was in trouble, and she was a nostalgic person. Although the former Xia Family was no longer here, she still looked forward to coming back here to take a look.

She looked at Shen Ruo Bai, then really opened the car door and got out of it.

Shen Ruo Bai followed her out of the car. He had finished smoking the cigarette in the car, so he lit another one.

"Stop smoking." Xia Jing glanced at him impatiently. She had always hated the smell of smoke. Shen Ruo Bai had clearly stopped smoking, so why did she have to smoke now?

Seeing that Xia Jing's face was not looking too good, Shen Ruo Bai's face darkened slightly. She put out the cigarette in her hand.

Xia Family's villa had long since become a barren wasteland. Because there were people killed here, no one had ever come to this place to develop it. The fire that year, the Xia Family had almost been burnt to the ground, and now it was overgrown with weeds, and only a faint shadow of what used to be there could be seen.

Xia Jing had lived here for more than a decade. Although it was already ruined beyond recognition, she still remembered where her house was located.

She walked through the weeds that were as tall as half a person and finally found a threshold. It was here that Lin Xiu had thrown her out and saved her life. Her eyes suddenly turned a little red. She squatted down and touched the dark marks on it. She laughed with tears in her eyes. "I'm home. I'm really home."

Shen Ruo Bai looked at her coldly, then raised her head to look at the ruins. There seemed to be a trace of hatred in her cold eyes.

Xia Jing was still sad. It had been five years. It had been five whole years since she left this place and left her parents.

She had thought that this place might have already been developed, that things might have already changed, and that there might no longer be any traces of the past. But what she did not expect was that everything in the Xia Family's villa was still in good condition.

Then something occurred to her, and she plunged into the ruins, over the weeds, over the broken walls, and, with a deep memory, into a burned-out house, pulling at the weeds, trying to get rid of everything that covered it, and soon her hands were covered with blood from the thorns in the weeds.

"Are you crazy?" Shen Ruo Bai suddenly grabbed her hand and her dark eyes darkened as she looked at the blood stains on her hand. Xia Jing's face was already covered in tears. "Daddy... Mommy... My parents are down there..."

The fire in the Xia Family was very sudden. Everyone except for her had already fallen asleep. As a result, the fire started burning all of a sudden. Except for her who was saved by Lin Xiu, who rushed into the courtyard in time, her parents, as well as countless servants of the Xia Family, were all buried in the sea of fire.

She did not even see her parents' bodies.

She was really an unfilial daughter. She had only returned after so many years. Her parents would definitely blame her, right? They would definitely blame her.

The more Xia Jing cried, the more heartbroken she became. Shen Ruo Bai hugged her in his arms and pressed her head against his chest. He sighed and said, "Don't be stupid, they are no longer here."

"No, they are just down there. Ruo Bai, they are just down there." Xia Jing raised her head and looked at him pitifully. Shen Ruo Bai gently wiped her tears and said lightly, "Xiao Jing, let's go back. Let bygones be bygones. Don't mention it again."

He didn't want her to return because he didn't want to think about the things that happened in the past. Since the two elders of the Xia Family had passed away, it was time to put an end to the grudges.

All of this had nothing to do with him, nor did it have anything to do with Xiao Jing.

"No." Xia Jing pushed him away and squatted on the ground in pain." You don't know how I feel, you don't know how it feels to have a happy family suddenly broken up, this is my home, this is the place that made me happy, I have feelings for this place, I can't let it go, it's in my memory, the pictures, the fire, I can still remember it."

A lot of memories in the past were brought up. It was not something that could be let go of easily. It was not something that could be kept from being mentioned.

"What do you want?" Shen Ruo Bai suddenly became very impatient and roared, "Do you think that you are the only one who has tasted that kind of feeling? Do you think that you are the only one who has experienced how a good family suddenly becomes fragmented?"

Shen Ruo Bai wanted to say more, but when Xia Jing looked at him in surprise, he stopped.
