Time is running out every minute, but it varies from person to person. In a twinkling of an eye, it's the seventh day since Qiao Dingxiang's funeral. The first seven days are big days. Song Xi always remembers that he asked George Sheng one day in advance if he was going to burn paper in the cemetery.

George Sheng said: "see if you have time. If you don't have time, you don't have to go. If you have time, you can go."

Song Xi said, "I've already finished my class."

Qiao Dingxiang burned the first seven. The relatives of both Qiao and Ren families came. Dozens of cars were pulled by the wreaths alone. At least 500 of them were yellow paper, foreign tickets, and all kinds of BRIC paper. They couldn't even count them. They were afraid that Qiao Dingxiang would not dominate the party below.

The place where the paper was burned was full of flames. Seven or eight men, holding long iron bars, surrounded the fire and flipped at any time.

There is a heat wave in the air, which is mixed with black paper scraps all over the sky. Many people can't stand it and have retreated to the outer ring.

Song Xi stood beside Georges Sheng and coughed because he was choked. He looked at her and said, "don't stay here. Get on the bus. It'll burn out in a moment."

Song Xi shakes his head and wants to say it's OK, but his cough doesn't stop and his eyes are red.

Yuanbao comes over and hands over a paper towel and a bottle of water. Song Xi walks away two meters behind his back, takes a breath, and drinks some more water.

Before she could walk back again, her mobile phone rang. She took it out and saw that it was a short message. The key sender surprised her, Dongxu's mother.

Song Xi and Gu Dongxu have known each other for so many years, and she is no stranger to Qiao Shuxin. But this is the first time that she has received a text message from Qiao Shuxin. Click on it and it says: Song Xi, it will be over in a moment. Do you have time? I want to talk to you about something.

Song Xi instinctively looks around, but there are too many people. She doesn't see Qiao Shuxin's shadow for a moment.

Put the water under his arm, Song Xi quickly returned a: have time, aunt Qiao.

Less than ten seconds after sending the text message, Qiao Shuxin replied: see you at the Champs Elysees. Please don't tell Dongxu.

Song Xi can't guess what Qiao Shuxin is looking for, so he replies: Yes, you can rest assured, I won't tell anyone.

Qiao Shuxin replied: Thank you.

Song Xi said: you're welcome.

Song Xi feels that the relationship between them is a bit awkward. It's different from her and Gu Dongxu. She jokes with Gu Dongxu, but in any case, the relationship will not change, but Qiao Shuxin doesn't know about her.

After putting away his mobile phone, Song Xi turns around and walks forward two steps. He finds that Georges Sheng is missing. Only Yuanbao stands there and walks over. Song Xi asks, "where's Georges Sheng?"

Yuanbao said, "I've been called away by my fourth uncle. I'll come here in a moment."

Song Xi said, "it's OK. I'll ask casually."

What a smart man Yuanbao is, he whispered immediately: "so many people are unfamiliar. Do you feel embarrassed?"

Song Xi was said to be the center of the matter, smiling and nodding.

Yuan Bao said in a low voice: "many people don't meet when they are alive. When they are most together, they are actually funerals and burning paper."

In his tone, Song Xi looked at the flames in front of him and said: "it's still because you have power, or how many of you are really standing here and choking?"

Hearing the speech, Yuanbao's eyes are more ironic. We are all understanding people, a group of people who understand each other.

So a lot of things, the fire burned for an hour, midway Song Xi asked Yuanbao: "Jiamin they didn't come?"

Yuanbao replied, "brother Sheng didn't let them come, so as not to be divided into several groups."

Song Xi suddenly remembers that her identity is special, so it's hard to avoid covering up when we meet. It's really troublesome.

After burning the paper, everyone went back to their cars. Georges Sheng asked, "where are you going?"

Song Xi said: "by the way, put me near the central road."

Yuanbao had already started the car, and Georges Sheng said, "don't you go back to the hospital?"

Song Xi said, "go shopping and go to work in the afternoon."

After a pause of a few seconds, Georgeson said, "I still have some time. We can take you back to the hospital within half an hour of your shopping."

Song Xi thought of Qiao Shuxin and said, "no, you're busy. I'm just browsing."

Yuanbao, the driver in the front seat, sighs to himself. He feels sorry for Song Xi. Don't you know that missing Georges Sheng's initiative is equal to missing 100 million yuan?

The car left Ningshan cemetery and drove downtown. After passing by central road, Song Xi looked out of the window and said, "Yuanbao, please pull over."

Yuanbao stops at the turn signal. Song Xilin says goodbye to them before getting off the bus. Yuanbao raises his hand with a smile, while Georges Sheng always ignores them.

When he wanted to close the car door, Song Xi suddenly thought of something. He bent down and looked at the person in the back seat and asked, "what time will you be back in the evening?"

"I'm not sure," Georges said faintly

Song Xi said, "I'll get the things ready. Do you come back to eat by yourself in the evening, or do I send them to your company after work?"

George Sheng's long eyelashes flashed, as usual: "send it to the company."

Song Xi answered, "good."

After that, close the door and turn away.

Yuanbao looks at georgesheng's face in the rearview mirror. Georgesheng doesn't say anything, but Yuanbao has a smile in his eyes.

Song Xi made sure that George Sheng's car was driving away. Then he crossed the sidewalk and walked several hundred meters to the Champs Elysees.

When she gets to the door, she calls Qiao Shuxin. Qiao Shuxin tells her the location. After Song Xi hangs up, she enters the door and goes upstairs to a closed private room.

Knock on the door to enter, Song Xi saw Qiao Shuxin, lips hook up, is about to say hello, Qiao Shuxin seat has got up, said with a smile: "sister, so soon."

Smell speech, Song Xi face smile immediately froze, Leng is three seconds later said: "aunt Qiao, you must not call me that."

Qiao Shuxin said: "we've known each other for a long time. I only knew you and Zhisheng were from the same family a few days ago. Dongxu was strict and didn't say anything. Bai asked you to call my aunt for such a long time. In fact, you should call me sister."

Qiao Shuxin holds Song Xi's hand with a kind expression and a friendly tone.

Song Xi waved his hand anxiously: "aunt Qiao, we have known each other for so many years. You have always been an elder in my heart. Besides, I'm married to Zhisheng and I'm not going to publicize it to the outside world, so you see... Let's follow the original call. I still call brother Dongxu in private."

Qiao Shuxin angrily looked at Song Xi: "it's really mischievous. In terms of seniority, Dongxu should call you little aunt... Oh, come on, you're right. You don't want outsiders to know when you get married. Then we'll be the same as before in front of outsiders."

Song Xi quickly nodded and agreed: "yes."

Qiao Shuxin refused to let go of Song Xi's hand and looked at her straight. After a few seconds, he said with a smile, "you are a blessed child. I didn't expect that we would become a family."

Song Xi tried to laugh with her. After standing for a long time, she took the initiative to say, "Auntie, please sit down and let's sit and chat."
