The furniture in the room was covered with white cloth, and there was the scent of freshener in the air, but occasionally there was still a faint scent of blood that rushed into the nose.
Shen Du walked to the bed and looked down to see a touch of red in the cracks of the wooden floor. It should be that blood had seeped into it and could no longer be cleaned.
This also proves that Dong Weizhuang stabbed the knife into the chest before Wen Wan came in, causing the blood dripping on the floor to solidify after a certain period of time.
That knife was not fatal. The real cause of her death was excessive blood loss. She chose this slow death method, which shows how much pain she endured before she breathed her last.
Why?
Wouldn't it be enough to just stab the heart and die immediately?
So her death was not sudden, but well thought out, or was she using her death to take revenge?
Shen Du bent down, grabbed a corner of the white cloth and suddenly opened it. The stronger smell of blood hit his face, making Shen Du feel like he was about to vomit.
He rummaged through the entire bed and the bedside cabinet, but found nothing. Finally, he sat down on the wooden board, and after searching every corner of the room, he landed on the dressing table. Stand up.
The cosmetics Dong Weizhuang used on daily basis were neatly placed on the ivory white dressing table, and there was nothing unusual about them.
Shen Du knelt down and opened the bottom drawer.
There was a powder puff box inside. He looked up at the other items on the dressing table. He frowned, then removed the sponge and saw a folded piece of paper underneath.
Shen Du tightened his hands and felt that his heartbeat was a little faster. He unfolded the letter with trembling fingers, and Dong Weizhuang's elegant handwriting came into view.
sinking degree:
I know you will definitely find it, so as you can see, these are the last words I really want to leave in this world.
Although I myself feel that I am not a kind person, people who are about to die can speak kind words, not to mention what I say below are all well-founded.
So let’s start talking about everything we did after Wen Wan and Mu Yuxiu reached an agreement!
"..."
Shen Du's fingers tightened little by little. The more he looked down, the paler his face became. Until the last line, the sweat in his palms had soaked the thin paper.
"So Shen Du, all of you, including Sheng Qizhou who seems to be in control of everything, have long since fallen into the trap arranged by Mu Yuxiu. You may not believe it, so follow the contact information I gave you to find someone These people, as well as everything Mu Yuxiu did at my funeral soon, slowly came to light."
After a while, Shen Du turned around and sat on the floor leaning against the dressing table.
An aura of death seemed to spread in the room, surrounding Shen Du tightly. He only felt that his chest was suffocating and he could hardly breathe.
Wenwan, the man you love is the one who hides the deepest.
***
The next day Wen Wan woke up in Mu Yuxiu's arms. As soon as she lifted the quilt and was about to get out of bed, a chill came over her and made her sneeze.
"Have you caught a cold?" The man's slightly hoarse voice came from behind after he woke up. His waist tightened, and she was hugged back to his chest from behind by him again, his chin resting on her shoulder, "Do you want to go to the hospital?"
It was already autumn, and since the two of them had not taken off their clothes last night, it was inevitable that they would catch a cold.
Wen Wan wrinkled her small nose and said, "No, just take some medicine and you'll be fine."
"Then I'll call Ah Zhe later." Mu Yuxiu didn't force himself to be gentle. After all, Chi Beizhe's medical skills were superb, and Wen Wan's resistance was also strong on weekdays. A minor illness like a cold didn't require so much effort.
He put his face against her neck and said, "I will take you shopping today to buy some seasonal clothes!"
The stubble on Mu Yuxiu's chin made Wen Wan's neck itchy. She hid while saying: "With so many things unresolved, how can I be in the mood to go shopping? Even if I want to go shopping, I won't go with you.
You are so uninteresting."
Just like when she was still in college seven years ago, not to mention it was difficult to get him to a crowded place. Even if he went with him with a black face, once she stayed in front of a stall selling trinkets for a few seconds,
He was as shameless as he kept urging her.
So Wen Wan thought that she would go shopping for clothes with him. As long as she sat there with him enjoying tea and drinking coffee, those people would pack the clothes for her.
Mu Yuxiu ignored Wen Wan, got up and got out of bed, and walked to the bathroom while saying, "I'll go back to take a shower and change clothes first, and let Xiang Rui drive over to pick you up."
After saying that, he turned back and added gloomily, "There is no room for negotiation. I just want to go shopping with you."
Wen Wan: "..."
A few minutes later, Mu Yuxiu came out of the bathroom, said something to Wen Wan, and returned to Shengshi.
Wen Wan quickly got up and washed up. After leaving her room, she went to knock on Shen Du's bedroom door.
No one answered for a long time. When I opened the door and went in, I found that Shen Du was not in the house. I went downstairs and saw no one.
Where did you go so early?
Wenwan was worried that Shen Du would do something impulsive, so she called and asked, "Shen Du, where are you?"
The other side responded calmly: "Funeral parlor."
Wen Wan frowned, "Asiu Hotel has informed the Dong family that the Dong family should go to the funeral parlor today. What if something happens if you meet them again there?"
"I will handle my own affairs myself. Don't open your mouth or shut up because it's your Ashiu, and don't let him interfere in this matter anymore, okay?"
Shen Du's suddenly raised voice shocked Wen Wan, and she asked awkwardly: "Shen Du, what's wrong with you? Did you misunderstand something? Ashiu is helping you."
"He helped me? Why did he help me? Don't be stupid Wen Wan!" Shen Du's sneer voice came from the phone, "He knew that all this was Sheng Qizhou's conspiracy to frame the blame on me, and he still wanted to help
As a shrewd person like him, wouldn’t I have thought that Sheng Qizhou would make a fuss about this matter? Why would he rather get into trouble? "
Wen Wan's face turned cold as she listened, and she said in a stiff voice: "Shen Du, no matter what the reason is that makes you become so extreme overnight, let me ask you, do you suspect that Ah Xiu is harming you, then I
We are together with him, do you think I am also harming you?"
Shen Du paused for a few seconds and his voice calmed down, "You were taken advantage of by him."
"You are the one being taken advantage of." Wen Wan said, feeling a little annoyed, feeling that her good intentions were not repaid, and Shen Du suspected her of having ulterior motives.
She said coldly: "Since you think Mu Yuxiu has no reason to help you, then he is helping me and the people I care about because he loves me. Is this reason enough?"
Shen Du said disappointedly: "I understand. If that's the case, then please Wenwan and you don't get involved in this matter anymore. That's it! Hang up."
This was the first time that Shen Du spoke to Wen Wan in such a bored tone, but Wen Wan knew that Shen Du was too stimulated and what she just said was a bit too much. She would never lose her temper at this time and talk to Shen Wan. There are conflicts.
After a few seconds of silence, seeing that Shen Du hadn't hung up yet, she sighed, still a little aggrieved, "Shen Du, you don't have to believe Mu Yuxiu, but how could you think that I would join forces with Mu Yuxiu?" Harm you?"
Shen Du asked in a low voice: "If he really wants to do something with this matter, Awan, which side will you choose to stand on?"
Wen Wan was stunned for a moment and said firmly: "This is not possible!"
"I mean what if..."
"Then let's talk about it when it actually happens!" Wen Wan said this. The doorbell rang outside, probably Xiang Rui came to pick her up.
While taking her bag, she said to Shen Du: "Actually, it doesn't matter much at all. We are all scaring ourselves. Shen Du, you and I have nothing worthy of Sheng Qizhou and the others. They There is no time to plot against little people like us, so there is no need to be so nervous. You can be where you want to be! After all, Dong Weizhuang has been with you for so many years, so I’m done."
Shen Du responded.
Wen Wan put away her phone and put her hand on the doorknob, only to realize that her palms were already covered in sweat.
yes.
She is just an ordinary person, but she has been involved in these intrigues and intrigues since she returned to China, so that now she is in a state of turmoil every day. When anything big or small happens, she must first consider whether there is someone behind the scenes. Layouts and various calculations to frame her and the people around her.
Wen Wan walked to the car and found that Guan Silin was not there. She liked to sit in the front, so she opened the car door and sat in the passenger seat. After Xiang Rui started the car, she asked, "How did you explain it to the Dong family?"
Xiang Rui looked at the road ahead and said: "Mr. Mu asked us to call the police to file a case first. Although the police were very angry that they sent Dong Weizhuang's body to the funeral parlor in advance instead of directly reporting the case, they still gave him the In order to save Mr. Mu's face, after confirming that Dong Weizhuang committed suicide, we negotiated with the Dong family."
Nodding gently, "Well, Ash is very thoughtful. It's just that I'm too worried."
Hearing this, Xiang Rui smiled and said: "Although Lawyer Wen is at ease, Mr. Mu can handle anything with ease, let alone Lawyer Wen. He doesn't even trust me and Guan Silin. He does it himself."
Wen Wan's ears felt hot and she quickly changed the subject, "Where's Arlene? Aren't you two always inseparable?"
"I drank too much last night and she was so tired that she didn't get up on time this morning. I asked for leave for her and Mr. Mu."
Xiang Rui said these words without changing his face, which made Wen Wan feel that Xiang Rui said that Xiang Rui was too tired, but that he vomited when he was drunk and bothered Guan Silin to clean the house. She also thought of Guan Silin saying that Xiang Rui was too boring, and she laughed. He sighed and said no more.
After more than ten minutes, the car stopped.
After Wenwan got out of the car, she discovered that it was a branded men's clothing store. As soon as she arrived in front of the door, someone took her inside.
Mu Yuxiu was sitting on the sofa flipping through a magazine. When he saw Wen Wan, he stood up and took Wen Wan's hand.
