Based on her identity as a flower picker, she did not know that Lan Ting was a widow.
Lan Ting lowered his face and his gaze darkened. He slowly turned around and looked at the flowers in the night sky without saying a word.
Shi Xiaonian saw that his hand was moved and she held the car key tightly. He was about to turn around and face the antique car, so she quickly said, "Should I ask? Mr. Lan, I am truly sorry. "
Lan Ting, who wanted to get on the carriage, lowered his hand when he heard her words and turned to look at her. She was dressed in the Lantau's common garb of a flower picking woman.
The way she looked in his eyes always gave him the most intense illusion.
Just like a wife standing in front of him.
Lan Ting turned around and looked in a direction. "minuscule thought, this place is very close to the Flower Sea channel. Why don't we go take a walk?"
Shi Xiaonian put her hands in his pockets, but did not hear the sound of her phone ringing. She did not know whether Lan Xiaoqi did as she instructed.Right now, she could only delay Lan Ting. She nodded, "Okay."
Shi Xiaonian walked forward and proceeded along the side of the road with Lan Ting. On the side of the road was a forest, and under the night sky, the sounds of birds came from the forest, disturbing the night's liveliness.Lundin walked beside her in a gentle manner, and even though he said she was like his wife, he did nothing to cross the line.
However, the scars on Lan Xiaoqi's body were still imprinted in her eyes, making her unable to not believe it.
As the two of them walked along the road, they could clearly hear their own footsteps. Lan Ting's voice suddenly sounded in her ears. "minuscule thought, let me tell you a story."
"Alright."
Shi Xiaonian really needed something to delay Lan Ting's time. She wished for nothing more than for him to tell her a story.
Lan Ting had one hand in his pocket as he looked at the Flower Sea channel in front of him. He said in a calm voice, "It should be around nine years ago, a young man got to know the destined girl. They are in love, married, have children, everything is plain and happy, everything is very smooth."
There are many stories like this. One of them is me.
The hero should be Lan Ting.
"And then?"
Shi Xiaonian asked."Why do you ask?" Lan Ting retorted. He narrowed his eyes and looked at her as if he was dissatisfied with her question.
She really didn't like the look in his eyes."Nothing." Shi Xiaonian smiled faintly, "Don't all stories have ups and downs? It's not worth telling stories without ripples."
As Lan Ting listened, he fixed his gaze on her with a touch of paleness on his face. "Is a story without ripples not worth telling?"
"Yeah."Shi Xiaonian was a cartoon painter, she knew that if the story was conceived so flawlessly, no matter how beautiful the painting was, how many people would see it?
"You're right." Lan Ting smiled bitterly and continued to walk. "The man's story is also the same. The family of three originally lived happily. He was recognized at work and had a great breakthrough. He received a generous reward which helped to improve the material condition of the family.""Isn't that great?"
Shi Xiaonian replied indifferently, her mind calculating how much time had passed, and why Lan Ting's phone still did not vibrate.
I wonder if Gong Ou has come out yet.
"Men are getting busier and busier and have less time to go home. His wife has told him over and over again not to take the job, that the family needs a husband and a father, not a moneymaker." The two of them got closer and closer to the channel s in the sea of flowers.
"…"
Shi Xiaonian silently observed Lan Ting's expression. He had already lost herself in her memories, the light in his eyes colorless.He loved his wife, no doubt about it.
"But a man can't stand it. He stubbornly carries out his work, and in the end, in order to keep the nature of his work secret, his boss asks to shorten the time spent with his family, or to have them all live with him and be watched 24 hours a day." Lan Ting said.
Shi Xiaonian listened, the boss, should be the Lancaster family. To be able to serve in such a big family, the more she would understand, how could she possibly quit so easily."The man didn't give up his job?"
Shi Xiaonian asked."No, you don't know what kind of person his boss is, how can he just give up like that? Moreover, fame and fortune are things that every man wants, right? No man can give up! " As he said this, Lan Ting's tone became somewhat agitated.
He explained desperately, as if he wanted approval.
Lan Ting looked at Shi Xiaonian, only to see that Shi Xiaonian's eyes were filled with indifference, and his breathing became sluggish. "You don't agree with that?"
"I don't know."
Shi Xiaonian shook her head indifferently, not trying to provoke Lan Ting.
Actually, in her heart she was thinking, if it was the current Gong Ou, he would not even wait for her to speak before realizing that he had neglected her and took the initiative to give up everything.
Well, she did.
"Of course you don't know. You're just a woman. Women and men are originally at opposite ends of the spectrum." Lan Ting blamed this on the difference between men and women and continued, "The wife also didn't understand a man's ambitions. She didn't want to be watched and didn't want to know the nature of the man's work, so she chose to take the child home.""Even men aren't accompanying them?"
Shi Xiaonian could not help but ask, how much did he neglect Lan Xiaoqi and her mother in the past.
"A man has his own thoughts. As long as he is able to work for a few more years and earn fame, he would be able to properly accompany the mother and daughter pair." Lan Ting turned his head to look at Shi Xiaonian, his eyes excited. "Is he not a good man? How can you raise your wife and children without money? "
His tone grew more and more agitated.
Shi Xiaonian could not feel any emotions from her phone. She did not know if Lan Ting had switched off the phone, so she could only force herself to continue stalling for time.
"You're right. Actually, that wife should understand as well."
Shi Xiaonian said with a soft, indifferent tone. She did not have any intention of trying to agitate her.As expected, when Lan Ting heard her words, his mood eased a lot. As if he was seeking approval, he continued, "Yes, that man knows his wife's hometown is relatively backward, and the transportation is inconvenient, so he even spent money to build a tunnel. How can he do this if he doesn't earn money?"
channel.
Shi Xiaonian looked at channel, who was not far away, and her eyes twitched.
It turned out that the person who wanted to cultivate channel was Lan Ting for his wife.
Under the bright moonlight, the sea of flowers had a unique characteristic. All the flowers seemed to be dyed in a strange color. They emitted a delicate fragrance that was refreshing to the heart.
Seeing Shi Xiaonian's silence, Lan Ting grabbed her arm and asked anxiously, "Do you think a man loves his wife very much? He can do anything for his wife. He just wants to make a few more years. "Shi Xiaonian's arm was in pain.
She took back her hand and smiled coyly, "Mr. Lan, don't be so agitated, what happened next? Can his wife understand him? "
"No, at that time, he and his wife had no contact because of the confidentiality of the nature of his work." Lan Ting said, he walked step by step to the front of channel, and looked at the long cave, "And for the last time, they quarreled about working for a man."
Shi Xiaonian stood at the side and followed Lan Ting's gaze to the long channel. She suddenly thought about what Lan Xiaoqi had said to her.
By putting everything together, she had already come to the conclusion.
She suddenly didn't want to listen anymore, but Lan Ting continued, "After that, three months later, that man received news that his wife took his daughter out to buy snacks at night and was murdered by someone in front of the incomplete channel."
Shi Xiaonian covered her mouth and couldn't help but take a few steps back and look at the channel in a daze.It's here.
It was actually here.
Lan Ting looked at her reaction. "It seems like you've already guessed it. The man in the story is me.""…"
"My wife's body was found in this channel. She didn't have a single piece of clothing, her body was completely black and her mouth was full of blood stains. My daughter was crying on the side." "She was crying on top of my wife, who was not more than two years old at the time, and she could not speak properly."
Just listening to it made Shi Xiaonian feel extremely stifled.
"Do you know the result of the autopsy?" Lan Ting suddenly laughed mockingly with a low voice, his eyes filled with bitterness. "My wife has been tormented by others for two hours, both her arms and legs were completely broken. She died because of great pain! And there were more than one murderer! "When Shi Xiaonian heard this, he felt really bad. A woman had to suffer so much to die, "What happened next, did you catch the culprit?"
"Heh."
Lan Ting laughed again. His laughter was full of ridicule and sadness.
Shi Xiaonian frowned as she looked at him. Lan Ting was also looking at her, laughing and crying, "No, in the past five years, I have tried everything and I could not find the culprit!""…"
Shi Xiaonian was startled that the culprit had not been brought to justice.
"I can't find it, I really can't find it!" Lan Ting said, his hands weakly clenching and releasing then clenching his fists again, "I changed my name and ran over to the Lantau, I investigated every household, I investigated every household thoroughly, and I still can't find them! I've been looking for it for five years! I still can't find it! "
He was excited.
Shi Xiaonian subconsciously stood to the side, her shoes stepping on a flower, she lowered her head, and suddenly heard a small sound.She followed the direction of the voice and saw a small figure leaning towards the channel, almost drowning in the flowers.
The little figure moved, but quickly returned to silence, not moving at all.
Everything seemed like an illusion.It was as if only the flowers and plants were moving in the wind and there was no one there.
Shi Xiaonian opened her eyes wide in shock. She saw a small hand behind a cluster of flowers.
