Xia Tong took out the porridge from the tray, handed it to him, and replied easily: "I just took a walk along the mountain road, I didn't go anywhere."
"Is that so..." He lowered his head and sipped his porridge: "Many roads on this mountain are not repaired and are overgrown with weeds. Snakes and the like often appear. You'd better be careful if you go out next time.
, it’s best to bring a servant with you, you know?”
Xia Tong nodded: "I know, Dad."
Then, there was silence. Qin Hansheng didn't seem to be hungry. He only took two sips and then put it down: "You can take it."
Hearing this, Xia Tong immediately stood up, put away the dishes, and planned to apply oil on the soles of her feet. Every time she stayed with this unpredictable man, she would feel very nervous.
Unexpectedly, just as she was about to leave, he suddenly said: "I heard that Su Ruo committed suicide?"
Xia Tong paused: "Yes."
"Why commit suicide?" Qin Hansheng picked up a book and flipped through it.
Xia Tong turned around: "Dad, I'm not very sure either."
Qin Hansheng glanced at her: "You should have seen her the night she committed suicide. How could you not know?"
Xia Tong was speechless and instinctively denied: "I didn't."
He raised the corners of his lips, half-smiling.
"Dad, can I go?" Xia Tong felt his legs shaking.
"Let's go." After a pause, he added: "Xia Tong, after this illness I realized that human life is really fragile sometimes, and it will be gone if you say no."
Xia Tong replied calmly: "So, life is short, and we should cherish the time we are alive."
He closed the book and his eyes brightened: "As long as you understand."
******* *******
After walking out of the room, Xia Tong felt a slight numbness in her heart, and the pores in her body seemed to be penetrated. The hand holding the tray was also squeezed so tight that it felt a little numb.
A very bad pre-cold came out.
What to do? According to Qin Hansheng's tone just now, he clearly knew that Su Ruo had seen him before he died, so he must have guessed that he now holds evidence of his drug trafficking?
How will he deal with himself?
Will it be the same as when we dealt with Lin Manru?
So what should she do now?
Should he run away, or should he pretend not to know and continue to stay here?
Xia Tong leaned against the wall behind her, feeling an extremely powerless frustration in her mind. Even if she escaped, where could she escape to? When Lin Manru knew the truth, she immediately left for Germany, but in the end she still couldn't escape Qin Hansheng
of poisonous hands.
Will I escape more completely than she does now?
Since there is no escape...
Xia Tong stood up straight. It was better to fight head on. Anyway, escaping would lead to death. It was better to find the place where the poison was hidden and bring Qin Hansheng to justice. Maybe there would be a way to survive.
However, thinking of Qin Mujie, she felt hesitant again.
"Young mistress." A young voice remembered beside him. Xia Tong woke up and saw that it was a little maid. He pointed at the tray in her hand and said, "Leave it to me."
Xia Tong relaxed his stiff expression and handed the tray to her. When he turned and walked towards the bedroom, the cell phone in his pocket rang again, it was Qin Mushi.
She pressed the answer button and said hoarsely: "Mucheng..."
"What's wrong? Her voice sounds weird." He quickly noticed something was wrong with her tone.
Somehow, Xia Tong suddenly wanted to see this man and wanted to see him as soon as possible.
"When will you come over?" she asked.
"I'm still a little busy and can't get away, so I guess it will only take two or three days."
"Can you hurry up?" she begged.
"What's wrong?" He was surprised. She rarely spoke to him in such a tone.
"I..." Xia Tong was speechless. She knew her request was unreasonable, but she was really afraid...
Sensing something was wrong with her, the man muttered: "How about I send Nie Sheng to pick you up tomorrow?"
Xia Tong shook his head: "No need." If Qin Muzhen rashly sends Nie Sheng to pick her up now, it will only confirm in Qin Hansheng's mind that she is guilty of committing the crime. Then, the consequences will probably be more serious.
"Stop talking, it's time to eat. I'm going downstairs to have lunch first." After Xia Tong finished speaking, she hung up the phone, so panicked that even she felt ridiculous.
But now besides this, she doesn't know what to do?
When they walked to the living room on the first floor, the servants had already brought all kinds of delicacies to the table. Xia Tong sat down, but didn't see Guaguai. She couldn't help but asked strangely: "Where is Guaguai?"
An older servant came forward and Xia Tong recognized her. Her name was Mrs. Jing. She had worked in Zuofeng Mountain for many years.
"Miss Guaiguai was arranged by the master to eat at another table, and she is no longer with the young mistress."
What?! Xia Tong stood up and unconsciously closed the hand holding the corner of the table.
Qin Hansheng took Guaiguai away? Now, what does this mean?!
"I want to see Guaiguai." Xia Tong said fiercely.
Sister-in-law Jing pushed her down on the chair with one hand: "Young mistress, please have dinner."
"you--."
"This is Zuofeng Mountain, not Huyuan Villa. I advise the young lady to be calm, otherwise it will be difficult for us to explain what happened if the young master asks."
Xia Tong was shaking with anger. Is this a naked threat?
"Also." Sister-in-law Jing helped her place the dishes one by one, "Master also said that as long as the young mistress is safe and sound these days, the obedient young lady will naturally have someone to play with, and she will live a very happy life. But if
The young mistress has done some not-so-good things, such as driving a wedge between the master and the young master..." She laughed, clearly threatening.
Xia Tong understood that Qin Hansheng separated her from Guaiguai just to use Guaiguai to constrain her. At the same time, she and Qin Mujie were not allowed to report secretly.
It seems that Qin Hansheng has indeed found out that she obtained drug trafficking evidence from Su Ruo, and has begun to take action against her.
maybe……
Maybe something happened to Emperor Sheng this time, and Qin Mujie was forced to stay in the company to deal with things; Qin Hansheng fell ill, and she came to Zuofengshan before Qin Mujie... It was all controlled by Qin Hansheng behind the scenes, with the purpose of isolating her from Qin Mujie.
, so that he can deal with himself more conveniently?
Xia Tong's back began to feel cold, and his eyes fell on the table in front of him, the plates of delicacies.
There are thousands of ways to kill people, and every one of them can cause death. She has to be careful, because if she doesn't pay attention, she may die without a burial place.
After reading this, she stood up and said, "I'm not hungry and I don't want to eat."
Hearing this, Sister Jing did not force her: "Come here, the young mistress said she is not hungry, so please put the things away."
Xia Tong turned around and walked towards the second floor. Sister Jing stopped her again, stretched out her hand and said, "Young mistress, please give me your phone."
Xia Tong was stunned: "Why."
"My master ordered me," she replied coldly.
Xia Tong stared at her, gritted his teeth, angrily took out his cell phone from his pocket, put it into her hand, and went upstairs angrily.
