Chapter 43 Chapter Forty-One

Sally opened her eyes, staring at the light coming through the window in a daze.She didn't want to get up yet, maybe it was because she was tired from running around for two days, she just wanted to lie on the bed for a while. Fortunately, her spirit is better now. This feeling does not mean that she has returned to her infinite yearning and expectation for life, but, compared to the loneliness the night before, she no longer cares about anyone at this time. Things are under illusion, in fact, she feels that her body and mind have calmed down, and there will be no more waves. Without the waves, it can be much quieter.

People will always find a suitable way out of their situation, even if the situation makes them miserable.When she learned that she was Xie Huiren's younger sister, her heart was violently stirred, and the happiness she had dreamed of for many years was suddenly shattered, making her suspect that the experience of the past few days was like a nightmare, or more precisely, a dream The fear of waking up.However, this morning, she couldn't believe that she had completely calmed down.Perhaps this is also good, there is no need to continue to dream this dream, and I will not pay more longing and hope for this dream.Thinking about it this way, she gained a brother and a relative, although what she lost was a woman's expectation.

Lying quietly on the bed, she felt icy cold, her body temperature dissipated with her consciousness, and she couldn't do anything if she wanted to grab it.Sally sighed deeply. She knew that this day's trip to Shanghai might reveal the truth, and she should return to a more peaceful life. Silence as the world stopped. Suddenly, a rush of phone ringing broke the tranquility of this morning.She lay on the bed and didn't get up. She followed the sound and grabbed the phone. She found the phone from the bedside table, slowly brought it to her ear, and said weakly, "Hello?"

The voice on the other end of the phone was weak, as if it came from a distant planet, "Miss Sally, this is Suzuki." The Japanese?How could he call?Sally frowned and said, "Oh, Mr. Suzuki." "Miss Sally..." Suzuki seemed embarrassed, and said hesitantly, "Please ask, are you with Mr. Xie?" This made Sally unable to answer. It is not appropriate to say yes or no to such a question in Chinese. How can you ask a question like this?If it weren't for the fact that he is Japanese and his Chinese expression is not very good, Sally might be really angry.She calmed down, "Tell me, what's the matter?"

"Oh, that's right, Mr. Xie should go through the formalities for the Buddha's head today." "I know this. As a senior employee of Jiade Company, I think I should know this procedure better than you." "That's, that's..." Suzuki smiled and continued, "I'm in Tokyo now, and I can go to Guangzhou today. I wonder if it's convenient for me to meet with you and Mr. Xie?" "I'm afraid not." Sally replied politely, "We are going to Shanghai today." Suzuki was obviously taken aback, "What?! Are you sure you must go to Shanghai?"

"What's wrong? Could it be that our itinerary..." "Oh, no, don't get me wrong, Miss Sally. I just want to say that Mr. Fujiwara has been looking forward to good news from Mr. Xie. See you later." After speaking, Suzuki hung up the phone in a hurry. It seems a little impolite to do so, a gentleman will wait for the lady to hang up first, this is the minimum courtesy - she believes that Xie Huiren can do it very well in such communication details - but Sally doesn't care, on the contrary, she has some She hates dealing with Japanese people, and she doesn't bother to say anything more.

Mr. Fujiwara, that old Japanese man who always looks smiling, isn't he giving us enough trouble?Without his inexplicable appearance, where would so many complicated things happen?Sally fiddled with the phone, feeling a little angry in her heart.She decides to get up.Although the time of getting along is only two or three days, she is confident that she understands Xie Huiren's character, and he will not give up until the end of this matter. Rather than thinking about it here, it is better to follow him to find out. Sally walked out of the bedroom. Just as she guessed, Xie Huiren was still lying on the sofa, curled up and fell asleep. It seemed that he was in a deep sleep, his face was a little haggard, and he was snoring softly.

She tiptoed to the single sofa next to Xie Huiren, sat down, and looked ahead. It was a window. The morning sun slanted in and fell on the milky yellow curtains. The sun shone like phosphorescence. After watching for a while, she actually felt a little tired, which is rare in her life. Usually, she would maintain good energy until night after waking up, but now she still felt a little sleepy and wanted to sleep for another hour for a while. She withdrew her gaze and leaned her head sideways on the sofa. Just as she was about to close her eyes, she saw two boxes wrapped in newspaper on the ground beside the sofa.This couldn't help but make her feel sore.It was a gift that old man Fujiwara gave them two days ago, a wishful handle and a letter.The scene at that time immediately flashed in her mind. In just two days, the time has changed, as if it has been a lifetime.

She stared blankly at the two boxes, thinking of the scene when Xie Huiren solved Buddhist puzzles one after another at the Fujiwara old man's house. At that time, his quick thinking and Buddhist knowledge at his fingertips made his image more refined and charming. The demeanor made her distracted many times, falling into reveries one by one. But now, he is my brother. Suddenly, Sally's body shook.what is that? She leaned down and clearly saw a striking headline on the newspaper wrapped in the box: Fujiwara Family Statement... She tilted her head and looked at two lines. Although the whole news was not fully displayed in front of her eyes, she could probably see the content of the statement. "Huh?!" she exclaimed in shock.

In that quaint study room, old man Fujiwara was sitting upright, with a smile on his face, as if there was nothing else in his life except being happy. He looked at Xie Huiren with a smile, and said, "Hui Ren, thank you very much. Today I will treat you to a good tea." As he spoke, he clapped his hands.The door of the study room opened, and a young woman wearing a Japanese-style hair bun and wearing a kimono walked in with small steps holding a tea tray. She lowered her head and knelt in front of the coffee table, skillfully arranging the tea set.After placing it, she turned her head politely and smiled at Xie Huiren.

It's Sally! Xie Huiren was about to cry out in shock when she heard Sally yelling, "Ah?!" Suddenly, Meng woke up, and he was in a cold sweat.He calmed down for a while, and found that he was lying on his own sofa at this time, and Sally was looking at him in astonishment on the single sofa next to him. "I had a nightmare." Xie Huiren closed his eyes and lay down for a while to calm himself down. After that, he sat up very energetically and said, "Why do you get up so early?" "It's late, the sky is bright." Xie Huiren looked out the window, "Well, yes, I slept this time, I only dreamed all night, and I didn't sleep well." Sally glanced at the newspaper again, "Brother..." "We have to go, please, warm up two glasses of milk. I'm very tired now." Why are you being so polite to me?Sally blamed him in her heart. "Okay...well." She decided not to tell him the contents of the newspaper for the time being, she knew that what he needed now was calmness, once he read the newspaper, he would get into that mystery again. The two drank milk together, and Sally decided to start with another matter, "Brother, that Japanese called in the morning." "What?" Xie Huiren's reaction was a little violent, "Fujiwara called?" "What's wrong with you? It's not Fujiwara, it's the young translator named Suzuki." "Oh, oh." Xie Huiren seemed to be coping with it uneasy, and after a while, he asked again, "What did he say?" "He said he wants you to go back and do the procedures for the Buddha's head." "That's all?" Xie Huiren frowned, "There are other things." "Nothing else, that's all he said." Sally thought for a while, and then said, "He also asked where we are going today, and I told him to go to Shanghai." Xie Huiren nodded, that's right, "Then what did he say?" "He said that he came to Guangzhou today and wanted to meet with us." Sally paused, "That's what he said, it seemed polite." This is no joke!Xie Huiren was holding half a glass of milk. He faintly felt that Suzuki's appearance added new content to the mystery, but was he here to solve the mystery, or to add to the confusion?Xie Huiren couldn't see it for the time being.Everything can only be decided after finding the master, and dealing too much with the Japanese now will definitely not bring any good things. Xie Huiren drank all the milk in one gulp, but sat blankly holding the empty glass, his face was serious, but his eyes were hesitant, he seemed to want to say something to Sally, but he didn't know how to speak, opened his mouth several times , without saying anything, finally, he turned his head sideways to look out of the window, and said slowly, "Sally, no matter what you see or hear today, don't panic." It's nothing more than good luck to find the master, Sally thought to herself, this is just to confirm the answer to the mystery, I am your sister, what else can I have?She lowered her head and whispered, "I... I'm prepared." Xie Huiren's heart was sore, and he secretly cried out, what preparations can you have!If that guess is true, what we are facing will be a shocking secret history of the most prominent family in Japan, moreover, that is our life experience... Xie Huiren didn't dare to think about it anymore, he just said firmly, "Trust me! No matter what time it is, I will protect you." Sally didn't understand why he said such words suddenly, she got up from the single sofa, and quickly sat beside him, the sun just shone on her body, and she felt very warm.She put her hand in Xie Huiren's, "Brother, I'm not afraid." Xie Huiren was still thinking about something, but just shook her hand, but continued to look out the window. The sunlight seemed a little harsh, making him squint his eyes.After a while, he said, "Let's go to Mount Putuo. If we're lucky, we'll go directly to Japan from Shanghai." Sally stood up in a hurry, leaned over and peeled the newspaper off the box, "Brother, you have to read this first."
