A few days later.
The weather was completely clear, with not a single dark cloud in sight, and it was hard to imagine the heavy rains of the previous days.
The body of Mrs. Song's father has been found. Due to the mudslide, he was unrecognizable. After the cremation, a funeral was held immediately.
Whether it was due to the loss of the project or the shock of her father's death, Mrs. Song's body collapsed after the funeral.
Song Yanzhe looked indifferent, not feeling sad, but angry.
Angry that such a big project would be handed over to Song Sichen.
In this situation, he didn't dare to hit Master Song's gun, so he could only pretend to be obedient and take care of Mrs. Song.
"I can't find anything strange. I feel that investigating this teacher is a waste of time."
Fu Chong whispered to Song Sichen.
He checked a lot, but couldn't find anything strange at all.
"What are you looking for? Tell me and the investigation might be easier."
"I don't know what it is, I just feel a little weird."
Song Sichen's answer made Fu Chong sigh. He just felt strange so he investigated and found nothing, but he didn't complain.
After being together for several years, he knew.
Song Sichen felt terrible.
Therefore, even if Song Sichen had baseless suspicions, he still insisted on obeying the orders.
"It's really strange. Shiran actually asked you to hand over this project to this teacher and work together instead of with the Shi family. Shouldn't such a matter of interest be in your own hands? How could you push it out?"
Fu Chong also felt a little strange.
But he did not find anything suspicious.
"Then you have to know, what can Shi Ran get by doing this?" There was no expression on Song Sichen's calm face, and he just said lightly: "Let's investigate this matter later, we are going to go now West City, there are a lot of things that need to be dealt with there."
"Then, be careful along the way, Master Song."
Fu Chong seems to have never said these three words, Master Song.
Song Sichen was a little uncomfortable hearing this, but he quickly accepted it.
Song Sichen walked out of Song's house and saw Shi Ran waiting for her at the door, alone.
"Hello Shiran."
"Hello, Song Sichen."
Song Sichen looked aside.
"Where's the teacher?"
"Although the person who cooperates is the teacher, the one who wants to go is me."
"I know." Song Sichen didn't ask for the reason. "Be careful. It may be dangerous just after the disaster."
"good."
"Then let's go."
Song Sichen opened the car door solemnly, Shi Ran got in first, and he followed the others.
"Set off."
The car doors closed and several cars headed to Xicheng together.
Looking at the scenery passing by quickly outside the window, Song Sichen fell into deep thought.
[Why did the teacher join this project? More importantly, why did the person in charge become Shi Ran? 】
This question has been on his mind lately.
In the current situation, no one should want to get involved. After all, it looks like it will be a hot potato. Although it is profitable, it is also very problematic and no one wants to take over.
However, the teacher gets involved and the person who goes to Xicheng to deal with is not him but Tokiran.
That's why Fu Chong was asked to investigate, but nothing suspicious was found.
Is there anything hidden in this?
"Ah sneeze!"
While Song Sichen was thinking, Shi Ran sneezed next to him.
"Who is thinking about Shiran?"
While Song Sichen was muttering in a low voice, he immediately started to move.
"Cover this."
Song Sichen took off his coat and put it on Shi Ran's shoulders.
"Thank you, Song Sichen."
She was wrapped in his clothes, revealing only her round face.
"thump!"
An unexpected frequency came from his heart, and in front of Shi Ran, the things he had been thinking about suddenly disappeared.
"Ah sneeze!"
My nose felt itchy and I sneezed again.
"Who scolded Shiran?"
One thought, two scoldings and three colds.
Is this a cold?
Colds are the most uncomfortable in summer.
Shi Ran caught a cold. Just yesterday, it had been raining non-stop in the past few days. I occasionally got wet a few times. It was not serious, but as soon as I stayed up late, my health started to deteriorate.
First, my tonsils became inflamed. I was in so much pain that I didn’t even dare to swallow. I took anti-inflammatory drugs and drank thirty-nine of them as a precaution. But the next day, I still sneezed and had a runny nose. Fortunately, I didn’t have a fever yet.
Even so, she still insisted on going to Xicheng.
Shi Ran rudely used Song Sichen's clothes to wrap his slightly cold body.
"You have a cold, have you taken any medicine?"
"have eaten."
"Need some sleep?"
Song Sichen asked with concern.
"it does not matter."
Although she said this, after driving out for a while, she felt dizzy. She leaned against the car window next to her, resting her hand on it, and fell asleep unknowingly.
Song Sichen was afraid of disturbing her sleep, so he drove the car very slowly. It originally took more than an hour, but it took three hours to reach the XC area.
Due to the effect of the medicine, by the time Shi Ran woke up, the sun had already set. Because she maintained that position in the car, when she stood up, her neck was so stiff and painful that she took a breath.
This degree is no different than a stiff neck.
Fortunately, I have painkillers.
After eating, Shi Ran looked around at everyone's busy figures.
This is a place in the XC area that has not encountered mudslides. It is still some distance from where we started, so we need to stay here for the time being.
Shi Ran pinched his neck and looked for Song Sichen.
"It seems to be heading that way."
Shi Ran walked over as one of them put down his finger.
It's a forest, and there seem to be a lot of cicadas on the trees, chirping all the time.
The moon was rising high, and Shiran heard the sound of rushing water every time he walked.
Shiran walked along the sound of water, and found an open place among the tall trees.
It is a river. It seems that the water level has risen due to the heavy rains in the past few days. The river water looks turbid, mixed with some sediment.
Song Sichen's figure was in the middle of the river.
Under the moonlight.
The water droplets falling from the completely wet black hair were like gems, dripping down.
In the turbid river water, half of Song Sichen's body was in the water. His upper body was naked, and his body seemed to be glowing under the moonlight.
"This kid, I haven't seen him in a few years, his figure is getting better and better."
Shiran felt his mouth was dry, swallowed his saliva, bit his lip, and took two steps back.
Plan to leave quietly.
"Crack!"
There was a slight sound underfoot.
Shiran closed his eyes, bit his lip, and held his breath.
Wow!
The sound of water came from behind.
Song Sichen noticed the sound and came out of the water.
"Tokiran?"
She listened to the voice coming from behind and turned around helplessly.
"Song Sichen, hello!" When she turned around, she looked up and saw that Song Sichen was only wearing shorts, and she quickly averted her eyes. "I didn't mean to look. I'm not a voyeur."
