Chapter 1157: Chapter 1161: Return to the Scene for Investigation Chapter 1157: Chapter 1161: Return to the Scene for Investigation Gu Qichen said, “We need to go back tomorrow, you should co with .”
Xia Yangyang shook her head, “I want to stay in Beijing for a few more days, godfather is now at the Peace Hall.”
ntioning Gao Huizhi, Gu Qichen silently took a sip of red wine.
After quite a while,
Gu Qichen finally asked, “Is he doing okay now?”
Xia Yangyang replied, “His health has mostly recovered, but his entire state is very different from before. The blow this ti was really too much for him.”
Gu Qichen didn’t say anything more and just remained silent.
Xia Yangyang asked, “Do you want to go see him tomorrow?”
Gu Qichen turned around, “Why should I go? I have no relation to him, and besides, there’s an important eting when I return tomorrow.”
Xia Yangyang sighed inwardly.
Gu Qichen’s reluctance to go definitely wasn’t due to the eting.
It’s just that up until now, he still didn’t know in what capacity and standing he should appear before Gao Huizhi.
Sotis, even Xia Yangyang found it unbelievable.
Gao Huizhi cherished each and every one of the children he adopted, but for Gu Qichen alone, he was exceptionally indifferent.
He wasn’t even willing to speak an extra word.
Xia Yangyang had always felt that Gu Qichen was innocent.
In his heart, he actually hoped Gao Huizhi would glance at him.
But…
Xia Yangyang let out a sigh.
Gu Qichen said, “Then stay here for a few days, keep Xia Ye company.”
Xia Yangyang settled down in Beijing.
Xia Yangyang had to uncover so leads about the matter.
Xia Yangyang thought it over for a long ti.
And finally decided to return to the Defu Hotel.
Even though so much ti had passed since the incident.
But now, Xia Yangyang was at a dead end.
She could only hope to find a breakthrough.
The only thod she could think of was to visit the scene at Defu Palace.
Defu Hotel was still in normal operation.
Xia Yangyang asked around a bit; it seed like nobody knew what had happened here.
However, the hall where the Phoenix wedding banquet was held had been sealed off.
Defu Palace was actually a property of Culture Hall.
The manager there also recognized Xia Yangyang’s identity.
Xia Yangyang told the manager she wanted to take a look inside the hall.
The manager said with difficulty, “Miss Seven, as you know, there was an incident there, and now that the hall is sealed off, we dare not open it without the Second Master’s orders.”
Xia Yangyang said, “Actually, I lost my necklace there that day. It wasn’t anything valuable, but it was the only thing my deceased mother left . I’ve looked in many places, and now I think it might be here.”
The manager knew who Xia Yangyang was.
The seventh princess of the underworld.
The most cherished daughter of Gao Huizhi.
No one dared to offend her.
In the end, the manager still opened the door.
Before entering, Xia Yangyang instructed, “Don’t tell my brother about my visit, I’m just here to look around. If it really isn’t here, I will leave quickly. My brother has been very busy with affairs recently, and after what happened here before, I’m sure he wouldn’t want to be reminded.”
The manager repeatedly said, “I understand, Miss Seven, don’t worry.”
The manager soon left.
Xia Yangyang entered the banquet hall.
As soon as she stepped in, vivid images from that night rushed back to her,
All she could hear were the panicked screams of everyone, as if they ca from hell.
Xia Yangyang still felt so lingering fear.
That incident, Xia Yangyang also had no desire to recall.
But Xia Yangyang had no choice but to convince herself to walk further inside, step by step.
