Hearing this, Gu Haoran was stunned, with some surprise in his eyes. He opened his mouth and was about to say something. The elevator door suddenly opened, and time, distance, air, light...suddenly, everything was restricted.
The air became quiet and eerie.
Seeing that he had not spoken, Xia Tong opened her eyes in surprise, but saw that the man in front of her turned his head at some point and looked out of the elevator. But his hands were still on her shoulders and never left.
Xia Tong followed his gaze and couldn't help but be stunned.
At some point, Qin Muzhen appeared outside the elevator. He was about to enter the elevator when he saw Xia Tong and Gu Haoran. He stopped as if in disbelief. His dark blue eyes were already gloomy.
His eyes followed her face, and finally stopped at the pair of big palms on her shoulders, frozen.
Behind him, people were already urging people to get on the elevator. Xia Tong felt that it was not good for the three of them to be stuck here at this moment. So he walked out of the elevator first, and Gu Haoran followed closely, but he shook his hand spontaneously.
Lived her.
"Why are you here?" Xia Tong asked Qin Mushi in a not-so-nice tone.
"Come home with me." Qin Muzhe wanted to pull her, but she dodged him.
"I don't want it." She refused simply.
The two people were confronting each other again like last night, and the atmosphere was very awkward. At this moment, Gu Haoran suddenly said: "Mr. Qin, do you mind if I say a few words to my wife?"
Qin Muzhen's eyes moved away from Xia Tong and fell on him: "I think even if I mind, Mr. Gu, you won't shut up, right?"
Gu Haoran smiled: "Maybe my words can help you, Mr. Qin, maybe."
Qin Muzhen looked at Xia Tong again and saw that she had a tilted face and looked like she didn't want to pay attention to him at all. She was obviously still angry. Even if he took her back by force at this moment, it would be in vain.
Thinking of this, he decided to take a step forward: "I hope Mr. Gu will keep your word."
In a secluded corner on the first floor of the building, Gu Haoran leaned against the glass curtain wall behind him, "Did you say that on the night of Xia Wanlin's accident, Qin Muzhe's car appeared downstairs?"
Xia Tong nodded: "I promise I'm not wrong. It's been so many days since my sister's accident. I saw Xiang Yuan so sad and the child she lost inexplicably in her belly. I was really sad. I questioned him repeatedly, hoping that he
He could give me an explanation, but he always plays catchy and pretends to be stupid. I really don’t know what to do..."
"I understand." He said: "If the people closest to me hide this from me, I will also be very sad."
"……."
"But -" he added: "It's not good for you to run out so recklessly before the matter is clear. After all, you only saw his car that night and didn't really see it.
His people, maybe there is some misunderstanding."
"But this matter is so difficult that even the police are at a loss. I really don't know where to start——" Xia Tong suddenly paused and thought of something.
video tape!
The surveillance video from the night of Xia Wanlin's accident was missing. Apart from the murderer, she could not think of anyone else who would be so eager to steal the video and destroy the evidence.
So, can the person who owns this videotape indirectly prove that he is the murderer of his sister?
As long as the video tape is found, will everything be revealed?
Thinking of this, Xia Tong took a step back: "You are right, I really shouldn't be so reckless before the matter is found out..."
****** ******
Outside the door of the building, Qin Mujue stood with his back turned, his right hand vertical to his side, holding a half-smoked cigarette between his fingertips, emitting a slight mist. His face was somewhat blurred in the smoke, and only his profile could be vaguely seen.
Beautiful silhouette…
Hearing the footsteps, he turned around and saw Xia Tong walking over. He immediately put out the cigarette butt in his hand. He stretched out a hand to hold her: "Go home."
Xia Tong dodged a little, but after thinking about it, she let him hold it.
He didn't ask her what she did last night, why she was with Gu Haoran tonight, and he didn't even mention what she had just talked to him. He just silently led her into the car.
Xia Tong didn't say anything, lowered his head and fastened his seat belt. He walked to the driver's seat and suddenly said: "I'm sorry for last night..."
"……."
He took out the keys and drove, and said in a casual tone: "I didn't mean to hide some things from you. I don't want you to know, because I don't want you to get involved..."
He turned sideways and held her hand: "I just hope you can stay away from the chaos and do your own thing happily, do you understand?"
Under his gaze, Xia Tong couldn't help but break away from his palm: "But Qin Muzhen, do you know that your thoughts are very selfish? You just hope that I can stay at home and be a good person."
Mrs. Qin, who manages world affairs, cooks and takes care of the children every day, and then waits for you to come home... But have you ever thought about what I think? "
He was startled.
"You don't let me know anything, you hide everything from me, and you think you are great and want to support me. But do you know, you will only make me think more wildly. This time, the person who died is
My biological sister, but I don’t even have the right to know the truth..."
"When the time is right in the future, I will tell you everything. It is not right now..."
"Aren't you the one who has the final say on whether the time is right or not?" Xia Tong sneered, closed his eyes and said, "I'm tired, I don't want to talk anymore, let's drive -"
He paused, seeming a little out of breath, and raised his hand to hit the steering wheel, but restrained himself, slowly put it down, and started the engine.
*************
At the hospital, at the door of the ward, Qin Mujie paused for two seconds and walked in.
Su Ruo has recovered a lot from the gunshot wound she suffered a month ago, and she will probably be discharged from the hospital in a few days. In the past half month, he has not been to see her because he was afraid of upsetting Xia Tong.
Now that she was about to be discharged from the hospital, he should go and see her.
In the ward, when Su Ruo saw someone coming, she suddenly hid under the quilt, leaving only one pair of eyes outside, looking at Qin Mushi shiveringly.
"You..." As soon as he spoke, she immediately hid in the arms of the medical staff beside her as if she was frightened.
Facing her obviously unfamiliar eyes, Qin Muzhen was very surprised: "What's wrong with her?"
The medical staff protected her and said: "I don't know very well. I heard that this girl was just shot before and suffered a gunshot wound in the back. As a result, she always broke down emotionally and yelled and said in the past two nights.
Someone wanted to kill her, holding a pillow and saying, "Baby, be good, mommy will protect you," etc... We suspected that there was something wrong with her mood. Later, after looking at her medical records, we discovered that she had had a history of mental illness for two years, so this
It is very likely to be a relapse….”
Qin Mucai frowned and took a step towards her. Unexpectedly, she immediately shrank back in fear.
