Song Zhi Xu had already heard this from Mu Qingting, so he wasn’t surprised at all. The man in the suit didn’t know much either, so Song Zhi Xu didn’t ask any more questions and just carefully pulled Lin Ran forward. The demolition of the building and relocation of the inhabitants had already started here; they could see the ground was full of broken or cement bits, so Lin Ran was having a hard time walking, therefore Song Zhi Xu simply picked him up. ZlRkB

The man in the suit looked at the two men with some surprise, but immediately turned his head back and knew not to ask any questions, so he just led them forward in a  well behaved manner.

It was only after a few turns that they walked inside to a dilapidated building and climbed all the way to the top floor, where the man in the suit pointed to a flat. “This is it.” xEDjGg

Song Zhi Xu glanced at the somewhat dilapidated doorway. The lock above the door had also been pried open so he just easily pushed the door open without using the key.

The man in the suit coughed lightly yet still said honestly, “I’m really sorry, because the owner could not be contacted on one side, so we forced to open the lock, but we didn’t touch anything in the room, it should have been burgled, there has been not too safe in here.”

The house was not big, a simple one room, and the things inside were in an awful mess, all covered with a thick layer of dust already. Song Zhi Xu nodded and turned his head to thank him before leaving the other party to be busy with his work. The man in the suit looked at the two of them and finally warned them, “It’s not too safe here, so you better not stay here too late and leave early when you’re done taking a look.”

“Okay, thanks a lot.” Song Zhi Xu nodded his head before the other party left. Now, there were only two people left. Lin Ran moved and slid down from Song Zhi Xu’s embrace and then stuck closely to Song Zhi Xu’s side again. TJbYMG

“Song Zhi Xu, where is here?”

The things inside were in a bit of a mess, they had been messing it up, and it wasn’t recently tossed around, so it was probably because the thieves had come to steal things in the previous ten years or so since they found out that no one had lived here. Song Zhi Xu took out a handkerchief from his pocket and asked Lin Ran to cover his mouth and nose then led him around the room again to search. From the kitchen utensils and other signs of life, it looked like only one person lived here alone, and it should be that man called Su Hexuan. rqTIW2

Song Zhi Xu tried to find a photo in the house. He had searched all the rooms, but nothing was there, so in the end, Song Zhi Xu could only take Lin Ran leave with nothing in result. 

In the car, on the way back, Song Zhi Xu asked Lin Ran. YKLDVx

“Ran Ran, do you remember a person named Su Hexuan?” Lin Ran thought seriously and then shook his head. “Ran Ran don’t remember anymore, I can’t recall it.”

Song Zhi Xu saw him beat his own head and hurriedly stopped him, telling him to stop thinking about it.  X9S1NT

Inexplicably, Song Zhi Xu would associate this name with that man in the photo who looked across the sky and straddled Lin Ran’s father’s shoulder. 

But even if they were the same person, Lin Ran really wouldn’t remember it, after all, since those pictures were taken when Lin Ran was only five years old, therefore Lin Ran should still be living in the Lin family at that time. Moreover, Lin Mu also had said that all the memories in the Lin family, Lin Ran had been forgotten all about it.  Dw4E3U

The two of them went back to the hotel and washed themselves clean before ordering lunch again. After eating, Lin Ran leaned against Song Zhi Xu’s arms, a little sleepy but still remembering Lin Mu, so he raised his head again and looked at Song Zhi Xu and asked in a small voice, 

“Song Zhi Xu, are we going to look for Gege?” bdHRAX

Previously, Song Zhi Xu promised that he would take him to find his brother sometime. Lin Ran hadn’t seen his brother for a long time.

It was just in time when Song Zhi Xu was going to ask if Lin Mu knew this name so he nodded his head in agreement and took out his mobile phone to call Lin Mu. The phone was answered after a few rings, Lin Mu’s somewhat hoarse voice and gasped for breath voice came from the other side. XhkcPw

“Zhi Xu?”

Before Song Zhi Xu could say anything, Lin Ran, who had been leaning in his arms and was a little sleepy, immediately became lively as he excitedly took the phone and talked to Lin Mu on the other end of the phone and called out, “Gege.” zd1Kax

“Ran Ran?” Lin Mu smiled, “I called you before, but no one answered. Did you not bring your phone with you again?” Lin Ran spat out his tongue and rubbed himself into Song Zhi Xu’s arms again. “Ran Ran has Song Zhi Xu, there’s no need to bring my phone. I can lose my phone,but I can’t lose Song Zhi Xu.”

Even if it was lost, Song Zhi Xu would come back on his own. Lin Mu laughed in low voice a few times at the other end of the phone, Lin Ran was a little embarrassed as he buried his cheek in Song Zhi Xu’s embrace, and did not dare to speak again. Song Zhi Xu gently patted Lin Ran’s back before taking over the conversation: “Lin Mu, I’ve brought Ran Ran back to Hai Cheng. He said he missed you, I also happen to have something I want to ask you. Shall we go back to the Lin family’s old residence tonight?” The other side was silent for a moment, before saying again after a while,  vc9ju5

“The old…old mansion is recently being renovated, it’s very messy inside, there’s no way to stay here. I’m also living outside now. Why don’t we have dinner together outside tonight? I haven’t seen Ran Ran for a long time either.”

Song Zhi Xu didn’t think much of it as he agreed to it. The two of them booked a place and a time for it before hanging up the phone. JWqaDC

Lin Ran lifted his head from inside Song Zhi Xu’s arms again.
