You're My Belated Happiness

It was evening after Ruan Yu's afternoon meeting.

As the winter solstice approached, the days of December were especially short. After waiting for five minutes at the gate of Huanshi, she saw that it was a degree dark.

Because of the traffic jam in the evening rush hour, Xu huaisong arrived a moment late, so that when she got on the bus, her hands were flushed by the cold wind.

As soon as he closed the door, Ruan Yu rubbed his hands against the heater and asked, "how was the trial today?"

"It's going well." Xu huaisong didn't start the car immediately, adjusted the direction of the heating, turned around, took her hand and gently rubbed it. After rubbing it for a while, he looked down and breathed at her palm. He saw that the scab on her palm had almost faded. After thinking about it, he asked, "after the winter solstice, I'm going to fly to the United States. That day I'm going to see the teacher?"

"How about your parents? Don't they go back for the holidays?"

"At noon in Suzhou, at night in Hangzhou."

"How tired you are to drive. It's not too late to go to my house when you come back from America. What's the hurry?"

Xu huaisong laughed: "what's the reason for not coming to the door on a big festival? Don't take me out of the game. "

Ruan Yu let out a "Oh", opened his eyes, pursed his lips and laughed, and suddenly remembered what Li shican had said at noon.

As early as that time, Xu huaisong thought about getting married. In other words, he went to her last from the beginning.

So she thought, she knows why he's hiding that response.

Marriage is the decision of two people. It should be pure and free from outside interference. He didn't want their marriage to be given any other meaning in her mind.

It is precisely because of his prudence in dealing with this matter that he will not take the initiative to talk about it until the end of his work in the United States.

After all, when his domestic career stabilizes, he will have to wait until next year.

Thinking of this, Ruan Yu asked, "when are you going to America this time?"

"It's too late for new year's day."

Sure enough. Ruan Yu's face suddenly collapsed: "then we can't cross the new year together..."

He looked at her with a smile: "the Gregorian calendar year what good cross, love patriotic, the lunar calendar together on the line."

Ruan Yuzhang opened his mouth, trying to say that it was not her "worship of foreign countries", but the new year's eve of the Gregorian calendar year had a special meaning for them. But Xu huaisong, with a look of indifference, swallowed his words again.

Forget it, don't expect men to understand this romance.

Three days later is the winter solstice.

Xu huaisong arranged his plan in good order. Early on, he took Ruan Yu back to Suzhou City and waited for the sacrifice to his ancestors. The family had a reunion dinner, had afternoon tea and drove back to Hangzhou city.

It's already four o'clock in the afternoon when I drive to the suburb. The setting sun stains the mountain road and spreads a light yellow halo on the front road.

Ruan Yu suddenly thought of Zhou Jun. He and his girlfriend happened on the road from downtown Suzhou to suburban Hangzhou.

She sighed. Before she spoke, Xu huaisong already knew what she was thinking. She digged her way of thinking and asked casually, "what do you eat in the evening?"

"When my mother heard that we had lunch, she prepared hot pot." She tilted her head to look at him, "classmate Xu, I'm going to see the head teacher. Are you nervous or afraid of harm?"

Xu huaisong said with a smile, "I'm afraid."

Ruan Yugang wanted to comfort him, so he said, "if you eat hot pot, you have to wash dishes for you. I'm afraid I won't have enough."

“……”

The feelings have really gone bad. Ruan Yu looked out of the window and thought bleakly.

Xu Hui song looked at her. He just wanted to joke about it. Suddenly he saw a half way down the road. Several policemen were surrounded by grass on the roadside. Shovel shovels were being carried out.

He quickly shrunk his smile and frowned.

Ruan Yu also noticed that he was just wondering what he was doing when he saw a policeman with gloves picking up something from the pit.

It's a section full of mud, rotten out of shape Arm?

Ruan Yu gasped.

Xu huaisong reached over to cover her eyes and sped over.

But perhaps it was this acceleration that attracted the attention of the police. When the car approached the scene surrounded by yellow tape, it was stopped by a policeman with ID card with a sign: "Sir, madam, excuse me, please show me your ID card."

He touched Ruan Yu's head and motioned her not to look out of the window with her head down. After handing out the certificate, he was surprised to see the policeman's face: "what a coincidence, lawyer Xu?"

Xu huaisong nodded: "do you know me?" Raise a Babel of criticism of

. He began to laugh: "you help the police to arrest the suspect, which has been in a great rash in our police circles. And you were drunk and knocked on the door of 302, a dozen households in Jinjiang City. That's also very famous in our bureau. "

“……”

Ruan Yu raised his head and looked at Xu huaisong.

He coughed, casually cover up: "Oh, you are handling a case?"

, yes, a suspect who had escaped for six months in a concert the other day, and asked us to cooperate with the investigation. After pouring the bitter water, he nodded to Xu huaisong, "excuse me, lawyer Xu, you can pass."Xu huaisong didn't move. He frowned and said, "you mean the suspect buried his body here half a year ago?"

He nodded: "yes, it's a recidivist. After dismembering the corpse and burying it everywhere, half of the arm can be found here."

Remembering the scene just now, Ruan Yu trembled and got goose bumps.

"Ah," he said, "I'm sorry, I'm afraid I scared this lady."

Xu huaisong turned his head and held her hand, indicating that it was ok, but he had to ask: "if it's convenient, I want to ask the specific time when the suspect buried this arm."

"Well We can't disclose the details... "

Xu huaisong nodded: "then just tell me if it's the Dragon Boat Festival."

He flashed a strange color: "how does lawyer Xu know?"

Even Ruan Yu forgot to be afraid and raised his head in surprise.

Dragon Boat Festival, that is not the day of Zhou Jun's accident?

Xu huaisong became serious: "I think There's a case that you may have to look into again. "

Leaving the scene, it was a little dark.

Ruan Yu took a long time to recover from this episode and asked, "is it really related to the Zhou Jun case?"

Xu huaisong shook his head: "I'm not sure, but Sister Zhang and I did have such a conjecture: assuming that Zhou Jun is not the real murderer, then the evidence is handled very clean, indicating that the real murderer is mostly a recidivist, and the recidivist's further murder is likely to cover up the previous criminal fact. But at that time, we investigated the criminal case that happened in Hangzhou, and we didn't find anyone who could match the number, so we gave up this speculation. "

As a result, a criminal case has emerged in the Shanghai stock market.

"Do you mean that the victim may have been killed because he accidentally found the murderer burying his body?"

"We can't rule that out."

"The burial site and the victim's death site are on the same road, not the same place."

"If the conjecture is true, it is only reasonable for the murderer to deal with the scene in a hurry after another attack, and then change the place in a hurry to bury the body again. If it's the same place, the police will find out the truth when they investigate the scene. "

Ruan Yu's face showed approval. After thinking about it, he shivered and touched the goose bumps on his arm.

Xu huaisong held the steering wheel in one hand, grabbed her hand and wrapped it in the palm of his hand: "don't think too much, give it to the police."

When they arrived at Ruan's home after leaving the mountain road, they met Ruan's father and mother who came out to greet them. They had a tacit understanding and didn't mention it. However, Ruan Yu felt uncomfortable when eating hot pot and instant boiled meat.

Qu LAN saw that she didn't move her chopsticks very much. She frowned and said, "what's the matter with Yu Yu? Do you have no appetite?"

She whispered, "ah." she didn't want to ask her parents to worry about Zhou Jun, so she shook her head and said, "I've had too much afternoon tea at huaisong's, but I'm not too hungry."

Xu huaisong knew that she didn't eat much in the afternoon, and the fundamental reason was the scene on the road just now.

He removed the two plates of red meat in front of her, rinsed several vegetables for her, and put them in her bowl.

Ruan Yu winked at him with his sharp attention.

Seeing this, Ruan Chengru also gave Qu LAN a look: is there something that these two children are hiding from us?

Qulan: it's like

Ruan Chengru began to ponder with his heart, while quietly talking to Xu huaisong about his family, his parents' health and his sister's achievements.

After a round of home cooking, the dishes on the table didn't move much.

Qu Lan said to Ruan Chengru, "ah, you are so busy chatting with huaisong. He has no time to move chopsticks. Please give the child a dish of beef."

Ruan Chengru said "Oh" twice and took the meat to the hot pot.

As soon as Ruan Yu looked up and saw this scene, he remembered the arm he saw in the evening. His stomach turned slightly. He could not help it. He turned his head to cover his mouth and retched.

Xu huaisong quickly patted her on the back: "do you want to go to the bathroom?" Then he raised his eyes to see that Ruan Chengru and Qu Lanqi were staring at him with a stiff, surprised and questioning attitude.

He was stunned.

Ruan Yu felt uncomfortable and didn't pay much attention to his parents' reaction. He got up and said, "well, I'll go."

Xu huaisong regained his mind, said hello to the two teachers, followed her into the bathroom and closed the door.

Ruan Yu supported his stomach with one hand and the washing table with the other. He vomited a few times without vomiting anything. He said bitterly in a low voice: "as soon as I saw the red and gorgeous raw meat, I associate it with..."

Xu huaisong turned on the tap to wash her face and said helplessly: "your imagination is really..." Half said and stopped, "well, I go back to eat all the meat, do not let you see, OK."

Ruan Yu bowed his mouth and nodded his head. Seeing what he thought of, he asked, "but why did your parents look at me like that just now?"

"I didn't notice. What kind of look?"

"It's a kind of..." "What did you do to my daughter?" he recalled with a frown

The voice fell, and the two responded together.
