Chapter 1647 The Truth (Part One)
Last night, Xi Jiu also turned out the sketchbook because she couldn't sleep.
He knew that Ruan Qi was coming today, so he hid the book in the drawer after getting up today. Unexpectedly, the little girl moved that drawer by coincidence.
Fortunately, Duan Wei arrived in time, otherwise, if the little girl was allowed to read the sketchbook, her spirit might be stimulated.
Xi Jiu had lingering fears in his heart, he squeezed the space between his brows, and said, "I'll go back to my room and lock up the book in a while."
After finishing speaking, he asked Duan Wei again worriedly: "Xiaoqi really didn't see the painting inside?"
Duan Wei: "I probably didn't see it. Otherwise, her reaction would not be so calm."
Hearing this, Xi Jiu breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, in the second bedroom, Ruan Qi looked at the closed door, and the corners of her mouth were slightly flattened.
She silently walked to the edge of the bed and sat down, staring at the patterns on the carpet in a daze.
Bai Li in the system was trembling.
Ruan Qi was silent for several minutes, Bai Li couldn't help it, and tried to speak: "Girl..."
Ruan Qi's eyelashes trembled.
Bai Li tugged at his beard, hesitated for a long time, gritted his teeth and asked, "Did you see some... um, just some... paintings in the Xi's kid's bedroom this afternoon?"
Ruan Qi curled up her fingers hanging by the bed, and pursed her red lips.
Seeing this reaction, Bai Li immediately understood everything.
Ruan Qi really saw the drawing in the sketchbook!
Bai Li slapped her thigh in frustration, but didn't dare to show it, trying to say, "How many pictures did you see? What's in it?"
"I only saw the first painting." Ruan Qi said in a low voice, "The painting is about me when I was nine years old."
Bai Li: "How do you know it's nine years old?"
"Because there is a sunflower hair tie on my head in the painting. My father bought it for me during the summer vacation when I was nine years old. Later, I lost the memory of that summer vacation, and I couldn't find the sunflower hair tie. "
The summer vacation when she was nine years old was the time when Ruan Qi was captured by Jiang Chunian and taken to Xiaoyao Village.
Later, Xiaoyao Village was destroyed, and Ruan Qi returned to Qingyun Village and suffered for more than half a year. After completely forgetting that memory, his mental state slowly recovered.
Ruan Qi, who regained her sobriety, forgot about Xiaoyaozhuang and the person she met during the summer vacation. Her memory stays at the beginning of the summer vacation, and she remembers that her father gave her a sunflower headband.
But the scrunchie was nowhere to be found.
Little Ruan Qi was sad for several days because of this, but the child has a great forgetfulness, and it didn't take long for her attention to shift to other things.
If she hadn't seen Xi Jiu's sketchbook today, Ruan Qi would have almost forgotten the existence of the sun flower hairband.
She sat by the bed and thought about it carefully. The sun flower hairband should have been lost during her struggle after she was arrested and taken to Xiaoyaozhuang.
But there is a doubt here-
The sunflower headband was bought by Ruan Fengmian during the summer vacation when she was nine years old, but she lost it after entering Xiaoyaozhuang. So why did Xi Jiu know that she had a sun flower hairband, and even drew it?
And when did he meet the nine-year-old her?
The pages of the sketchbook have been seriously yellowed, so it can be inferred that those paintings should not have been drawn in the past one or two years.
But she met Xi Jiu a year ago.
However, judging from those paintings, Xi Jiu knew her before she knew Xi Jiu.
And the years of acquaintance are not short.
Ruan Qi once again remembered the inexplicable question Xi Jiu asked when she first met Xi Jiu——
Where was you on August 14th ten years ago?
Where is she?
When she lost her memory, Ruan Qi thought that she was spending the summer vacation at home on that day ten years ago.
But as her memory slowly recovered, she knew that in August ten years ago, she was arrested and taken to Xiaoyaozhuang.
When Jiang Chunian was listed on the Shanghai Stock Exchange before, Qiu Weiren, Jiang Chunian's former assistant, told her that she should have been arrested on August 15th.
In other words, she was safe on August 14th.
Xiaoyao Village is in Shanghai Stock Exchange, and Qingyun Village is in Baicheng. If she had been at home during that summer vacation, it would be impossible for Jiang Chunian's people to cross half of Huaguo and bring her from Baicheng to Shanghai in just one day.
Therefore, on August 14th, she should not be at home, but was on the Shanghai Stock Exchange.
Combined with Xi Jiu's sketchbook, Ruan Qi can make a rough guess——
She and Xi Jiu met in the Shanghai Stock Exchange on August 14th ten years ago, and they were even very familiar with each other and had a close relationship.
So here comes the problem.
Since the two of them have known each other for a long time, Xi Jiu has nothing to hide from her? Still painted so many pictures?
Thinking of this, a name came to Ruan Qi's mind - Brother Bingshan.
If Xi Jiu is Brother Bingshan, then all his concealment makes sense.
Although Ruan Qi's memory is not complete, but based on the fragmentary fragments in the dream, she can deduce that the relationship between herself and Brother Bingshan ten years ago is very, very good.
Their relationship is so good that Brother Bingshan can risk his life for her.
Besides Jiang Chunian's stimulation, Ruan Qi felt that a large part of the reason why she would forget Bingshan brother was because she could not accept Bingshan's death.
She was only nine years old at the time, and a good friend was thrown into the river by bad guys and drowned in order to save herself. Such excitement is too much for a small child.
So at that time, under the multiple shocks, Xiao Ruan Qi had a mental breakdown and chose to forget.
And the reason why Xi Jiu didn't tell her what happened ten years ago was also because she was afraid that when she remembered the past, her spirit would fall apart again.
All doubts and clues are connected in series.
The fog in front of him gradually dissipated, and Ruan Qi finally touched the tip of the iceberg of the truth ten years ago.
Xi Jiu is Brother Bingshan.
Although there is no conclusive evidence, Ruan Qi is 100% sure in her heart.
Then, the next thing she has to do is...
"Check the Xi's kid?!" Bai Li was shocked, "What are you checking him for? Why don't you just ask him if you have anything to do?!"
Ruan Qi shook her head: "I think Jiujiu is still hiding something from me."
When Bai Li heard this, her heart skipped a beat, she quickly looked away guiltily, and asked dryly, "What else can I hide from you? Isn't it about Brother Bingshan?"
"No." Ruan Qi frowned, "Apart from Brother Bingshan, he should have kept something else from me."
Ruan Qi knew Xi Jiu too well.
With how much Xi Jiu cared about her, it was impossible for him to insist on hiding her from her knowing that she was worried about the life and death of Brother Bingshan.
She was worried about the life and death of Brother Bingshan.
That Xi Jiuda can tell her that he is still alive.
Now her memory has gradually recovered, and her mental endurance is stronger than before. As long as Brother Bingshan is still alive, this matter will not cause irritation to her.
But Xi Jiu still kept it from her.
He would rather let her worry about whether brother Bingshan is dead than tell her the truth.
There is only one reason for Xi Jiu to do this——
The truth about Brother Bingshan was even crueler than what she saw in her memory.
