Then, she opened WeChat and asked Jingxiu: "Axiu, is it convenient for the video?"

When she walked back to the desk and sat down, she received a simple reply from Jingxiu: "Well."

Ji Youyan clenched and loosened the five fingers on the table, and pressed the video request.

Chapter 73

Within seconds of the video request, Jingxiu accepted it, as if she had been waiting.

In the video, Jingxiu was sitting on the bed with loose hair, wearing pajamas, and was ready to rest after taking a bath.

She looked at the camera, her expression was very calm, under the halo, there was even a little tenderness. Ji Youyan originally had an uneasy heart, but strangely calmed down under her gaze.

"Axiu, have I affected your rest?" Ji Youyan said softly.

"No." Jingxiu said lightly.

Ji Youyan licked his lips and said, "My dad woke up during the call in the afternoon, so I didn't have time to answer your question. I'm afraid that my explanation will deepen your misunderstanding."

"I know." Jingxiu couldn't hear his emotions, "Is uncle okay?"

"It's okay now." Ji Youyan hesitated for a few seconds, then said from his heart: "Axiu, frankly, I still mind that you investigate me privately. However, I sincerely thank you. Thank you for your timely notification. Me. I can't imagine how much self-blame and unbearable I would have felt if I didn't know about it a long time later."

Jingxiu's eyelashes trembled, "It's my merit to atone for my sins."

"It's not that serious." Ji Youyan reflexively defended Jingxiu. She reflected on herself, "I know it's my fault to get to the bottom of it. If I can take the initiative, you don't have to be so embarrassed."

"No matter what the motive is, I admit that I didn't give you enough respect for this matter." Jingxiu is not someone who refuses to admit his mistakes.

Her thoughtfulness made Ji Yuyan's nose sour. "Okay, we are all wrong in this matter, we are even, let's turn the page, okay?"

Jingxiu looked at her and said nothing.

Ji Youyan reacted that Jingxiu misunderstood her words, and hurriedly explained, "Axiu, what I said was turning the page right and wrong."

She cut to the point of the video call: "Axiu, I don't know how much you have investigated. You should be able to find out that I haven't been home for many years."

Jingxiu sank his eyes and said without concealment, "Well, I found it."

"I found out where your family lives, what your parents' names are, what occupation you are in. I found out where you grew up, what school you attended, your glorious resume, and you... One grew up together, called Lu. Let go of my fiancé." Jingxiu said the last sentence in a hoarse voice. Her hand holding the sheet was slightly harder.

Ji Youyan was shocked, and her first reaction was that there was indeed something wrong with what Jingxiu found. She eagerly denied: "Lu Fang is not my fiancé!"

"The data shows that you are engaged. Everyone around you agrees with this." Jingxiu lowered his eyes, the sadness on his face was obvious.

"That's what they thought, and spread the truth." Ji Youyan was anxious and panicked, "Although Lu Fang and I have known each other for many years, we have really talked about marriage, but I have never really dated him, let alone actually engaged. pass."

Jingxiu raised his eyes and stared at her, a gesture of listening, with a hint of anticipation.

Ji Yuyan had a painful look on his face. Her eyes fell on the whole wall of awards, and she organized a language to explain herself: "Axiu, as you found out, I was born in a traditional and conservative family, and my parents were university teachers. Since I was a child, they The expectation for me is that I hope to grow up to be a well-informed lady. When I grow up, I will inherit the family tradition, marry a man of the right family and good looks, and live a peaceful and stable life. Lu Fang is the one my parents pictured. The right man."

Jingxiu's brows furrowed following her story, vaguely distressed.

Ji Youyan retracted his gaze, looked at Jingxiu, and laughed at himself: "Axiu, not all parents in this world will be like your parents, open-minded and gentle, and respect their children's wishes."

"Because of our parents, Lu Fang and I have known each other since childhood, and we almost grew up together. He took care of me like a brother. When I was a child, my parents sent me to learn piano and art in order to cultivate my temperament. I resisted, and in the end, I really fell in love with music and enjoyed it. However, since junior high school, when there was pressure to go to school, my father stopped my extracurricular activities. At that time, it might be a rebellious period, and the more he would not let me do anything , the more I want to do. So I always go out with other classmates to practice piano and sketch. For more free time, Lu Fang acts as my shield. He helps me cover and tricks my dad into taking the lead. I go to self-study, and then go out to play with me."

"I have always regarded him as a brother, and never thought about it. But since high school, some people would coax me to be with him. At first, he would explain to me nervously, and later in college, he became By default, I began to know what he meant. But maybe it was because I declared to him very early that I only had a brother and sister relationship with him, so he never confessed, but just took care of me in a measured way, so that I didn't The method should be clearly and thoroughly explained to him. When the university was about to graduate, the misunderstanding that Lu Fang and I were in a relationship spread to the ears of both parents. My mother asked me directly. I denied it, but they It seems that I don't really believe it, I just don't dare to admit it because I didn't obey their request not to be in a relationship before graduating from college."

"Isn't it funny? I don't know when it started. It seems that my parents and I can't communicate on the same channel. Most of the time, we don't communicate. Once we communicate, it is easy to treat the truth as a lie, and a lie as the truth."

Her parents took the truth as a lie, and she took all the lies her parents said.So in the last life, they never saw each other again.

Tears fell silently on Ji Youyan's face, and Jingxiu's heart felt as if something was grabbing it.

"Every family has its own different form, it's not funny at all." Jingxiu comforted her softly.
