Half an hour later, Xu Li greeted with a smile another person who was interested in taking over the cattery.

After looking around, the other party made an offer very readily, and the deal was finally completed at a price of 500,000.

When signing the transfer contract, Xu Li still felt it was a little unreal. After all, the price offered by the potential takeover parties was only around 300,000.

She felt that it was very likely that the transfer notice she wrote on a whim had worked!

The agreement was signed, the money and the goods were paid, and she had nothing to do with the cattery anymore.

Feeling somewhat disappointed, she pulled the next store owner aside with red eyes and told him:

"Please be kind to them. They are very well behaved."

...

After explaining everything, Xu Li left with her bag on her back, looking back every few steps.

After she left, the new store owner made a phone call , " Mr. Zhao, the property has been acquired."

Here, in the office of the executive president of Zhou Group, Zhao Zhe, who received the news, reported it to Zhou Dingyu who was reviewing documents.

Of course, some details were also reported.

The man put down his pen and chuckled, but there was a hint of tenderness in his peach blossom eyes.

He sneered , " You can't even protect yourself, and you're still worrying about the lives of those little things."

At this moment, the cell phone on the coffee table rang, and Zhou Dingyu turned his head to take a look.

Zhao Zhe trotted over and picked up the phone , " Boss Zhou, it's Boss Wei calling."

Zhou Dingyu waved his hand and Zhao Zhe handed the phone over.

Answer the call.

I don't know what was said on the other end. Zhou Dingyu frowned and said "Hmm" lazily , " I know."

After ending the call, he pressed his eyebrows and told Zhao Zhe , " Cancel the schedule on Friday afternoon and go to Yucheng High School."

--

Two days later in the morning.

It was Friday.

Cafe.

Xu Li successfully made an appointment with Xiao Zhang, the assistant of the famous lawyer Mr. Fu.

She carefully checked the agreement and contract brought by the other party. The official seal at the end was clear and should not be fake.

She signed her name and put her fingerprints neatly, and transferred the 500,000 yuan from the sale of the cattery to the other party as a deposit for the lawyer's fees.

While wiping the red ink on his fingertips, he asked Assistant Zhang , " When will Lawyer Fu be able to return from abroad?"

Assistant Zhang replied , " If it's fast, it will take about a week. If it's slow, it will probably take more than half a month. Attorney Fu is going to attend an international legal elite seminar, which is very important, so it will take longer."

Xu Li nodded, and in her heart she was more convinced of the professional ability of Lawyer Fu, whom she had never met before.

It seems that there is hope that my mother's injustice will be vindicated.

While it was still early, she made an appointment with the prison authorities to visit the prison.

I want to tell my mother this good news so that she will have hope.

--

prison.

Behind the iron bars, Qin Suliu, dressed in prison clothes, sat there woodenly, lifeless.

In just a few months, her hair turned mostly white and she became so thin that she almost lost all recognition.

Xu Li's heart ached.

How could this still be the mother who was always energetic and glamorous?

Xu Li tried hard to control the tears in her eyes , " Mom ... "

Qin Suliu opened her dry and lifeless eyes and murmured weakly , " Lili ... it's not me ... it's really not me ... "

Xu Li knew what her mother meant. She touched her mother's face through the glass and said firmly , " Mom, I believe you."

It is impossible for a mother to kill a father.

It is even more unlikely that my mother has a lover outside.

Xu Li just believed it.

When Qin Suliu heard her daughter say this, tears welled up in her dry eyes:

"I explained it countless times, but they just didn't believe me! That day, the nanny Liu went back to her hometown, and I cooked in the kitchen myself. I wanted to make braised spareribs, but there was no soy sauce at home, so I went to the supermarket downstairs to buy some. When I came back, your father was lying ... "

Having said this, Qin Suliu covered her mouth with her hands, tears flowing out from between her fingers, as if she was recalling something that had caused her great pain and horror.

Xu Li's heart ached even more. She touched her mother's face again and again through the glass, trying to wipe away the tears on her face:

"Mom, I believe it wasn't you. You two are so in love, how could you possibly kill Dad?"

Hearing this, Qin Suliu buried her head in her chest and cried bitterly.

The crying was filled with despair and sorrow.

It seems like he doesn’t understand why a good life has turned out like this?

It's more like being unable to accept the sudden and tragic departure of a loved one.

Xu Li just looked at her mother quietly, her heart aching as if it was fried in oil.

"Mom, I have already filed an appeal after the first trial, and now I have found a well-known lawyer who can help you clear your name."

"He promised to do his best. I will get you out. You have to trust me, okay?"

Qin Suliu raised her head, her eyes were red and swollen with tears in them, and nodded.

Then he clenched his fists and took a breath:

"Lili, remember, mom has never done anything wrong to your dad. The man who claims to be my lover, no matter what evidence he produces, he is lying!"

Xu Li bit her lower lip tightly, secretly took her mother's words into account, and nodded heavily.

Perhaps she thought of something, Qin Suliu looked at Xu Li, a little hesitant:

"When something like this happened to our family, what was the Zhou family's attitude ... did the Zhou family ... help?"

What Qin Suliu is most worried about now is that this incident will affect her daughter's engagement with Zhou Huaian.

In order to reassure her mother, Xu Li decided to tell a white lie:

"Mom, the Zhou family helped. They found the lawyer this time. Huai'an is busy lately and can't spare the time. He also said he would come to see you when he has time."

Seeing that her daughter was not bearing all this alone, Qin Suliu's sadness finally faded a little, and she pursed her lips in relief:

"That's good ... That's good ... Lili, tell him that he doesn't need to go to the trouble of coming to see me. He is a good boy, and I appreciate your kindness."

After a pause, he said, "Also, take care of yourself and your brother while you're out there."

Xu Li swallowed the sourness in her throat, pursed her lips, forced a smile, and nodded.

--

After coming out of prison, Xu Li, immersed in grief, was thinking about her mother's case.

The words of the court ruling are still vivid in my mind:

"After review, the evidence of the 2.18 murder case is sufficient. Due to the serious nature of the case, the first instance verdict is as follows: the suspect Qin Suliu is sentenced to death with a two-year reprieve, and the assistant to the crime, Yao Dongchen, is sentenced to ten years in prison ... "

Yao Dongchen is the man who claims to be his mother's so-called "lover".

He also insisted that he had an improper relationship with his mother and claimed that his mother discussed with him and planned to kill his father.

Now the other party has been imprisoned.

It’s not that Xu Li didn’t try to meet with that person, but the prison authorities told her that the other party refused to meet with anyone other than a lawyer.

Xu Li vaguely felt that the other party might be a breakthrough.

When Lawyer Fu comes back from abroad, she will find a way to meet with Yao Dongchen no matter what.

--

After returning home, Xu Li was so exhausted that she curled up on the narrow sofa and fell asleep.

I had a lot of bizarre dreams.

In the dream, my father was still there, smiling and attending his wedding.

The white wedding dress was spread on the red carpet. My father held my hand and stopped in front of a tall figure, then handed his hand to him.

My father said , " Huaian, I leave Lili to you."

The figure turned around and stretched out his hand. The Buddhist beads on his wrist reflected a cold fluorescence under the light.

Xu Li was startled, and when she looked up she saw that the man was not Zhou Huaian.

But ... Zhou Dingyu!

The man took his hand, revealed a handsome and seductive smile, and nodded to his father , " I couldn't ask for more."

Xu Li was extremely shocked in her dream. She wanted to tell her father that the person she was going to marry was Zhou Huaian, not this guy, but she couldn't open her mouth.

When I turned around, I saw that my father had let go of my hand and was standing there covered in blood, moving further and further away from me.

Finally, it shrank into a white dot of light and finally disappeared.

Xu Li shook off Zhou Dingyu's hand, picked up the hem of her wedding dress and chased after him frantically, finally uttering a voice , " Dad! Dad, come back!!"

Waking up from a nightmare!

Accompanied by a rapid phone call, Xu Li suddenly sat up from the bed!

After a long pause, until the ringing was about to stop, she calmed her violently heaving chest and answered the phone.

As soon as the call was connected, a serious voice came from the other end , " Are you Xu Shiyan's parent? I'm his class teacher."

Xu Li immediately sat up straight, with a positive attitude , " Hello, teacher, I am Xu Shiyan's sister, how can I ... "

The teacher's tone was slightly angry:

"You should come to school right away! Xu Shiyan has committed a crime and has been arrested by the school's teaching department!"

Xu Li's brain buzzed , " I'll be there right away!"

After hanging up the phone, Xu Li hurried to Yucheng High School.

    After Zhou Dingyu finished speaking, Xu Li was stunned for a moment, not realizing why he suddenly asked this.Because he didn't receive a reply, Zhou Dingyu slowly opened his eyelids and looked straight over, with red bloodshot veins clearly visible in his eyes.Xu Li saw this and her heart skipped a beat. "I ... "Zhou Dingyu smiled, his calm eyes like a deep pool that could swallow everything, "Will it?"Xu Li pursed her lips tightly, met the other person's gaze, and had a myriad of thoughts in her mind.Of course she had thought about this question."No." She met the man's gaze and said firmly."If I could go back to the past and start all over again, I would say goodbye to you properly and would not leave without saying goodbye."Zhou Dingyu's eyes were fixed on Xu Li's face, as if something that had sunk into the abyss of memory was being salvaged by a pair of warm hands.The warmth that came towards him gave him the

"Zhou Dingyu frowned slightly, "Why is it so big ...

She sniffed and her voice, which was always called "Queen", was a little bit pinched at this moment. She groaned softly, "It hurts ... "Zhou Dingyu stepped forward and extended his arm.

    After Xu Li returned to her workstation, she continued to draw the design. After a long while, the heat on her face finally subsided.Perhaps it was because the restlessness in my heart disappeared, and my inspiration was overflowing, making creation unusually easy.By the time I got off work, I had made a lot of progress.Stretching her waist, Xu Li packed up her things and prepared to go to the vegetable market to buy some ingredients to cook at home.It was evening, the rush hour for getting off work.

He hesitated for a moment."Well ... your suggestion is not impossible ... "Xu Li stood up straight, her body slightly tense, her breathing paused, she looked at the man, waiting for him to continue."But I think the interest issue needs further discussion."Xu Li held back the suffocation that was spreading rapidly in her heart and pinched her fingertips. "If Mr. Zhou feels that it is inappropriate, you can make a request."Zhou Dingyu nodded slowly, and his fingers climbed up to the Buddhist beads on his wrist and gently rubbed them."According to the bank's highest interest

    Almost as soon as Xu Li finished speaking, Cheng Xuefei's voice suddenly came from outside the office door, "Dingyu?"Then, the door lock started to rattle.It seemed that it was not opened, and a familiar male voice came from far away."Director Cheng?" It was Zhao Zhe."Assistant Zhao, is President Zhou in there?""He should be here. Director Cheng, what do you want to talk to President Zhou about?""Oh, there are some work matters that I need to discuss with Mr. Zhou ... but the door seems to be locked from the inside.""Lock it?""yes.""Let me try."The door lock sounded again.Xu Li was startled and subconsciously tried to push Zhou Dingyu away, but was firmly pinned to the bed by the man's big hands."Don't be nervous."
