In the big living room of the hotel, the girl sat on the sofa, Fu Hanchuan and Su Xiang sat opposite her, three cups of green tea emitting light smoke.

Su Xiang took a cup of tea, took a sip, squinted his eyes and asked, "what's your name?"

The girl was not pretentious, on the contrary, she was very smart. She blinked her cunning eyes and said, "Xing Si."

Su Xiang nodded. She didn't care whether the girl's name was Xing Si or Si, but now she needed a title. However, the girl looks very young and won't be over twenty.

She looked at the girl and was secretly surprised. Are the little girls so powerful now?

Fu Hanchuan's face was expressionless. He didn't respond to the girl's eyes. He said coldly, "when did you come to Malaysia, or were you originally Malays?"

"Besides, before you approach me, do your people know who I'm looking for in Malaysia?"

Xing Si smiled and said, "this is the first time you have said such a long sentence to me." She counted with her fingers, then shook her hands and said in surprise, "I can't count both hands."

Fu Hanchuan: "I need to ask again, or I'll give you to the police?"

Handing it over to the police means being prosecuted and going to jail. The girl knew how to be measured and straightened her body. Her eyes were cold. She put away her foolishness and said, "the day after you arrived in Malaysia, I was arranged."

"My employer wants to know your every move, who you've met, where you've been and how things are, and then I'll report back."

"We stayed in the same hotel, but you never noticed me."

Fu Hanchuan remembered that at the swimming pool, the girl took the initiative to hook him up. He remembered that there were several other girls around her at that time. He said, "how many of you are there? Are those girls all yours?"

Xing Si lowered his head, peeled his fingernails and said carelessly, "no, those are friends I just met." She raised her head and looked at Fu Hanchuan. "You were the only friend I didn't make that day."

Fu Hanchuan sneered. His long legs overlapped, one side of his body leaned on the side of the sofa, and his left arm was on the armrest. He looked very noble with a strong aura.

He said, "wouldn't it be more convenient for you to get information from me if you became my friend?"

Lansi turned her eyes and pursed her lips slightly. She said, "Mr. Fu, are you not friends with me because you are alert?"

She meant it, but she didn't succeed, not once.

She turned to Su Xiang and said, "Hey, miss, your boyfriend doesn't seem to ignore me because he is sincere to you. He just wants to guard against me."

Su Xiang said faintly, "you're procrastinating. Do you want your companions to save you?"

The girl won't work alone. They stare at Fu Hanchuan. In order not to let him find out, she won't be followed by one person all the time. At least one person, such as the person who asked the hotel manager out.

Xing Si felt bored, shrugged his shoulders, looked at Fu Hanchuan and said, "you're right. They know you sent someone here to check things. They want to know what you're checking."

"I saw you go to the grave, but there was no name on it. I don't know who you're looking for, but I saw you go into the banquet house villa and meet the old lady Shen. "

When Fu Hanchuan first came to Kuala Lumpur, old lady Shen was not at home. He stayed here for a few days and went to see the local fruit merchant to try to disturb Fu Zhengkang's sight. Unexpectedly, Fu Zhengkang was really confused by him. He thought he was looking for Yan Lin to win him over.

Fu Hanchuan picked up his tea cup and took a sip, half drooping his eyes and said, "so you dug up the tomb?"

Xing Si nodded and said, "yes. They want to know whose tomb is. There is no name on the tombstone. Maybe there will be one in it? But -- "

Su Xiang interrupted her and said coldly, "but all you see is some clothes."

She hates all those who disturb Shen Yan's peace, even the clothes grave!

Xing Si looked at her tight face. There was fire in her eyes. She asked curiously, "do you have anything to do with the people in the tomb?"

Su Xiang turned his head and said, "you almost caught us by Mr. Yan."

Xing Si nodded and said, "that's what they're going to do." She pointed to the only cup of green tea left, "can you change it for milk tea? I don't like tea. "

Fu Hanchuan ignored her. Su Xiang said, "you have only the choice of drinking or not."

Xing Si chose not to drink and leaned back on the sofa. Su Xiang looked at her and said, "what about stealing paintings? How did you do it? "

Xing Si looked at the ceiling and said, "I saw you bring a painting into the hotel. You seem to treasure that painting very much. My employer told me that you bought four paintings in the gallery. "

Speaking of this, she looked at Fu Hanchuan and Su Xiang: "but I'm very strange. Since she said there were four paintings, I saw only one, and it seems to be much different from the size she said."

"I told her about it. She said that you were going to see the banquet gentleman soon. In an emergency, she asked me to switch the painting first, and then I did it according to her requirements."

In the middle of her speech, Su Xiang moved her eyebrows slightly and turned her head to exchange views with Fu Hanchuan.

This is similar to what she speculated. Lu Weiqi thought she had switched the painting sent by Fu Hanchuan, but she always felt that there was something wrong in the middle, but she couldn't think about it at this time.

Fu Hanchuan then asked, "how did you know to steal paintings from the hotel manager?"

Xing Si smiled: "because my partner was born and raised in Kuala Lumpur. The son-in-law of this hotel often goes to the auction. He likes collecting famous paintings and has been in the newspaper. It's not a big problem to find one of similar size in his collection. "

Fu Hanchuan said quietly, "your organization is very large."

Lansi smiled: "everyone is just to make money."

Fu Hanchuan is not interested in the gang affairs. If you want to talk about the gang, the Mo family was no different at that time, and there were many capable people under him. He is not interested in her partner, as long as the girl is in his hand.

Su Xiang asked, "I want to ask, if we don't catch you, what are you going to do with this painting?"

She has brought back the picture of Jiang Huatu. Fortunately, it is intact.

Xing Si stole the painting. If it is not suspicious at all, it should be put in the hotel manager's collection. Only in this way can the whole subcontracting process be completed. This is what she has always wondered.

Su Xiang didn't care. She didn't want to arouse the girl's suspicion. The girl looked at the picture and said, "give it to my employer."

Su Xiang's heart sank slightly. Sure enough.

Lu Weiqi aroused her suspicion when she heard Xing Si's description of the painting, but the situation was urgent. The only time they could switch the painting was when they left the hotel, so she let someone start first.

Lu Weiqi wants to see this picture. What is it

Su Xiang pinched his fingers and closed his eyebrows, thinking: maybe Lu Weiqi suspects something and has personally gone to the gallery to inquire.

The sealing paper of the painting is the same. As long as she listens to the description, she knows that the painting also comes from CHENFENG gallery.

Su Xiang restrained his mind and said, "then why didn't you send the painting back, but still hide it in the hotel?"

Xing Si said, "you called the police, didn't you?"

Su Xiang snorted. She was not only smart, but also very cautious.

When Su Xiang called the police, he proved the value of the painting. The police had to try their best to find it. In addition, Fu Hanchuan reminded the police that if they could find the painting, they could find the person who stole the painting. As well as the pressure from Yan Gu, the police made great efforts to find the painting.

Galleries, international mail offices, customs, well-known private buyers and so on have been searched by the police. As for the hotel, because manager Fang objected to disturbing his guests and affecting the hotel's reputation, there was no search.

Under such a big noise, Xing Si didn't even dare to take the painting out of the hotel.

Fu Hanchuan looked at Su Xiang and knew that she must have another intention to ask this question. It wouldn't hurt to ask her again after the questioning.

He looked at Xing Si and said, "the last question, you always say it's your employer, do you know who she is?"

Xing Si smiled and said, "a woman. You left me from the police. In addition to asking me, you wanted to take me back to confront her, didn't you? "

Fu Hanchuan did not deny it. He has the phone record of Lu Weiqi's call in his hand. Even if she denies it, she can't deny the fact. In addition, he doesn't want Lu Weiqi to know that the stuffing has been exposed here. Therefore, Fu Hanchuan's intention to keep the girl is to ask her to continue to communicate with Lu weiqi, at least until they go back tomorrow.

He threw Xing Si's cell phone back to her and said, "make two calls. First, tell your partner that you didn't reveal your secret. Second, tell your employer that the diner is very angry with us. "

"I believe you can muddle through with your intelligence, can't you?"

Organized people are different from ordinary people who work alone. They have a level. The higher the level, the higher the price. Once they miss, they have no level at all. Some tasks that miss will even be cleaned up.

The girl should have been out to work for a short time, so she received a simple tracking task, but she was unlucky and didn't complete the points.

But on the other hand, Lu Weiqi's action was dignified enough to find a gang organization to work.

After the questioning, Su Xiang handed Xing Si to Yan Gu and asked him to find a place to look at her.

After Xing Si was taken away, Su Xiang looked at Fu Hanchuan and said, "the evidence is left?"

Fu Hanchuan turned off the camera, took out the memory card and shook it in front of her eyes.

In fact, they didn't plan to take someone back to confront Lu Weiqi. It was too troublesome, and they had to risk the girl's escape.

As long as he confronts Lu weiqi, Xing Si can be released. He doesn't need to send people to prison. If he offends a gang, it will be very troublesome to deal with it.

No matter where he is, multiple friends are better than multiple enemies. He can get a favor. Why not? You know, if a gang misses, it will lose face in the Jianghu. If he doesn't poke it out, he's just making a favor.

Su Xiang knew his intention and scolded him as a traitor in his heart. Fu Hanchuan put the deposit card in a small box. He said, "are you scolding me?"

Su Xiang hung his head and ignored him by sending a text message. Fu Hanchuan turned around and said to her, "what did you mean by asking Xing Si that question just now?"

Su Xiang said, "I doubt that Lu Weiqi went to the gallery to check the picture of ginger flowers."

Xing Si didn't ship the painting back, but she can send photos to her. With Lu Weiqi's suspicion, she must go to the gallery to find out something.

Fu Hanchuan came over and saw that she was sending a message to Qi Lingyang. Her face was not very good-looking. He said, "you don't know Lao he. Can't you contact him directly?"

He went to the sofa and sat down, poured the cold tea into the tea tray, poured another cup, and muttered, "it's not over to contact Lao he directly. It's so troublesome..." I'm afraid he didn't know. She has a similar relationship with Qi Lingyang and wants him to do everything.

Su Xiang heard his muttering, turned his head and glanced at him and said, "what if Lu Weiqi has been to the gallery?"

Su Xiang sends a message to Qi Lingyang, hoping that he can personally negotiate with Lao he and let him keep it a secret. When they went to buy paintings, they only asked about Ye Cheng. Lao he didn't know their intention. He was greedy. Lu Weiqi didn't lack money and could buy the news of Ye Cheng from him.

Lu Weiqi is a smart man. If she knows that painting is so important to her, she will continue to trace it.

Su Xiang called Lao he and couldn't say clearly. She asked Qi Lingyang to go there in person. She was more at ease. If Lu Weiqi has been to the gallery, Qi Lingyang can feel the bottom, and she can be ready to deal with it.

Fu Hanchuan listened to Su Xiang and felt that she didn't want people to know her relationship with Yan Lin. He said, "you don't want to disclose your relationship with Yan Lin?"

……

Banquet house.

The matter of digging graves and stealing paintings has come to light. Su Xiang handed the painting to Yan Lin: "this is the painting you gave to my mother."

For the lost painting, Yan Lin was filled with emotion. He touched the frame and said, "it's been more than 20 years. Unexpectedly, I can see it again."

Su Xiang said, "I want to leave this picture with you."

The painting was bought by her. She thought it was precious at that time, but she thought he was more suitable for owning it than Yan Lin.

Yan Lin looked up at Su Xiang's sincere and clear eyes and gently nodded: "thank you."

Sometimes, some words don't need to be said, but can be understood with one look.

His fingers touched the painted eyes and said softly, "when you first saw these eyes, you recognized that this is your mother?"

When he found that the painting had been changed that day, he believed her when she said about her eyes.

Su Xiang said, "yes." She looked at Yan Lin, "in fact, you really want to take this painting back from Mr. He?"

Although he changed his face and surname, Lao he and he are old acquaintances. He is afraid that he will recognize him, but he can leave it to Yan Gu to do it. Just find any reason.

Yan Lin nodded and shook his head. He said, "I can't let her go, but I'm disappointed in her and hate her..." now, he doesn't hate. He only regrets that he didn't find her.

Su Xiang looked at his sadness and didn't speak again.

There were only two of them in the study, the heavy pendulum ticking and shaking, and the time passed minute by minute.

Su Xiang took a sip of tea, moistened his lips, sipped lightly, and turned to look at the light coming in from the window.

The semicircular upper frame, rectangular below, inlaid with colored glass, is the style of old Shanghai. The sun shines in from the stained glass to form colorful colors. Time slipped away in the long pendulum sound and the slanting sunshine.

After a while, Yan Lin finally stopped looking at the picture. He said, "are you leaving tomorrow?"

Su Xiang nodded, "yes." She thought she should say something more, adding, "the plane at five in the morning."

They should have left tonight. There was a flight to Beicheng at night, but Fu Hanchuan said he wanted to have a rest before leaving. He said it was not bad for the time of the night.

Yan Lin looked at Su Xiang and finally said what he had always wanted to say. He said, "Su Xiang, you are my daughter. I'm going to hold a marriage recognition ceremony to let you recognize your ancestors and return home. This ceremony can be completed in Kuala Lumpur or Beicheng. What do you think? "

Su Xiang pursed his lips. In fact, she knew what he would say sooner or later about his decision.

She was silent, and Yan Lin frowned, "don't you want to?"

Su Xiang shook his head and said, "how could it be." Yan Lin is more like a father than Su Mingdong, and I believe he will be good to her. However, the ceremony of recognition of relatives is not just about the clan, but also those who have status, and invite other dignitaries to witness the scene, and registered residence changes.

Su Xiang's fingers pulled the palm of his hand, considered the next sentence and said, "I think this marriage recognition ceremony can be changed to recognize his daughter?"

Yan Lin was stunned: "why?" Then his face showed a disappointed expression and murmured, "you don't want people to know that you are an illegitimate daughter. This identity is disgraceful..."

Even the daughter of Yan Lin is an illegitimate daughter. She will be gossip behind her back.

Su Xiang chuckled. She was gossiping. It wasn't a day or two. She was gossiping about others almost every day.

"No." Su Xiang shook his head, lowered his eyes and said slowly, "because Shen Yan is different from Yu Kelan."

Yu Kelan is pregnant with Qi Lingyang, but she married Qi Haipeng openly, so Qi Lingyang was born openly. In a sense, he is not an illegitimate child. He entered the Qi family. Even if he was ignored and ignored since childhood, Yu Kelan gave him a bright identity.

But Shen Yan... No matter how miserable she was when she married Su Mingdong, they didn't divorce legally. She gave birth to a child that didn't belong to Su Mingdong. This is called illegitimate daughter.

How can Yan Lin recognize her words?

Everyone knows that Shen Yan has only married one man, Su Mingdong. If Yan Lin recognizes her, he will tell the world that Shen Yan once had a relationship with other men.

No matter how sincere and warm Yan Lin and Shen Yanai are, they will be despised by the world in the eyes of others.

Su Xiang doesn't want her parents to be looked down upon. Shen Yan is dead. She doesn't want to disturb her peace.

Yan Lin slowly curled up his fingers on his knees, held them tightly, and his breath sank. With this sentence alone, he knew what she meant.

Su Xiang looked at him and then said, "in addition, those who still remember my mother know that she has only two men in her life. One Su Mingdong, one Ye Cheng. "

"Ye Cheng is dead, so even if you succeed in revenge, you haven't restored Ye's surname. Isn't that why?"

"If you publicly admit me, don't you just tell everyone that Ye Cheng is not dead?"

Su Xiang thought about why Yan Lin succeeded in revenge, but he didn't appear in front of Su Ming to humiliate him, and didn't tell Su run who was destroying the Su family.

Because Yan Lin wants Ye Cheng to be the past, Ye Cheng, who was severely trampled on the ground by Su Mingdong and severely humiliated, is dead. There will be no Ye family in Ye Xiang in the world.

She said, "I can't let people uncover your pain and the unbearable smoke because of me. Therefore, this marriage recognition is not allowed. "

Yan Lin's eyes had deep wrinkles. At this time, those wrinkles seemed to be stained with tears and wet.

"Isn't this to wrong you?"

Su Xiang smiled. Her eyes were soft and satisfied. She said, "if there is perfection, there is regret. Since I recognize you, I don't care about anything else."

Su Mingdong made her a mute, which gave her the greatest advantage. She knows that contentment is always happy.

She didn't want Su Mingdong to be her father at all, but she thought for a long time that she couldn't do that.

"Anyway, what's the matter with a title? Externally, I call you godfather, internally, I call you father, which is also possible. "

Yan Lin was moved and reluctant. He shook his head and said, "it matters a lot, child."

Su Xiang knew what he was talking about. Before that, she asked a question: "Yan Gu, is he my eldest brother?"

Yan Gu was several years older than her. According to the time, Yan Lin was still working hard at that time to get ahead.

He fell in love with Shen Yan deeply and could not accept other women. Otherwise, he would not fight to death and would take her away.

Yan Gu's name, a "Gu", reveals some information. Ordinary people won't use this word.

Yan Lin looked into Su Xiang's clear eyes and said, "look, you should have guessed it."

Su Xiang nodded and Yan Lin admitted, "he is my adopted child."

"I've been badly hurt and won't have children in my life. After I came to Malaysia, I slowly set up my own family business and began to prepare for revenge. The old lady was worried that I was too obsessed and didn't want me to die, so she went to the local orphanage to adopt one. "

"He was the child of a Chinese businessman. At that time, Malaysia was very chaotic. His parents were killed in a house robbery, and he was sent to an orphanage."

"He was six years old when I adopted him, but he has been with me all these years. I trained him. He is very ambitious and does everything well. "

Su Xiang listened to him quietly. When he stopped, she said, "if I didn't show up, he would be your heir and take over everything in the banquet family."

This point can be seen from the arrangement of Yan Lin after he returned to Beicheng. He hopes that the Ye family will exist as a banquet family and become one of the top families in the pyramid.
