"What did you an by the text ssage you sent ?" She had lost her appetite.
"Eat sothing first, Chenxing. We haven’t seen each other in a long ti. You seem to have lost weight, haven’t you been eating well?"
"Have I? I didn’t notice." Chenxing touched her face, perhaps she had worn herself out from recent late nights.
But discussing this was the last thing on her mind.
"Tell right now, what did you an by that text ssage? How is my parents’ death not an accident?"
Back then, when she was still in junior high, she vividly rembered that day, in the middle of physics class.
When her aunt unexpectedly called the school to tell her that her parents had been in a car accident. At that ti, she understood nothing. In the end, the police investigation determined it was an accident, and she just had to co to terms with that.
"Calm down first, let explain slowly."
"You’re asking to stay calm faced with such a huge thing? They were my parents!" Chenxing’s words were filled with suppressed rage. Realizing she had spoken too harshly, she lowered her voice and apologized to him.
Xia Jianqing sighed. His world was clean and bright. He had been just as shocked when he saw the data his brother had handed him. He hadn’t imagined that in this world there could be such a deception capable of masking a murder, it defied all natural justice.
"A friend of mine from the police station discovered this by chance. Take a look for yourself." Xia Jianqing deliberately avoided ntioning Xia Jiankai, trying to take all the credit for himself: "But I must warn you, no matter what the truth is, you must remain level-headed. If you can’t promise that, I won’t show it to you."
"Just let see it." Chenxing repeatedly assured him, nodding her head.
Then, Xia Jianqing pulled out a sowhat old docunt, laying it flat on the table in front of Chenxing.
=============================================== Scene Change ============================================
At this mont, having finished his physical exercises, Gu Shaocheng returned to the main hall and ordered the butler: "Tell Chenxing to go read in the study."
"Sir, Miss Chenxing rushed out earlier. She didn’t tell where she was going, she seed really out of sorts."
"Out of sorts?" Gu Shaocheng frowned at the news and dialed the driver’s number: "Where is Chenxing right now?"
The reply ca in half a minute’s ti: "Sir, Miss Ye and that guy nad Xia Jianqing are at the Starbucks opposite Tianyu Square."
Upon hearing this, Gu Shaocheng’s mouth slightly curled upwards in a display of fury. Was she going off to et her old lover once again?
Gu Shaocheng’s aura imdiately turned sharp, even emitting a hint of a bloody scent. Such an indomitable spirit! To think that the man he had just released would be annoying him here. Was Chenxing also taking his good temper for granted and pushing her luck too far?
"Baihao, handle it personally and bring her back to !"
Gu Shaocheng’s tone was hardly pleasant. His slender fingers tapped the table rhythmically. He resolved not to indulge her anymore. Why should he continue to swallow his anger? Why should he, Gu Shaocheng, continue to tolerate this?!
Damn it, did she think he didn’t have a temper?!
"I’ll get on it imdiately." Nan Baihao dragged his heavy body up, kicking the obstruction that was Hua Hua who remained unscathed but kept sobbing in complaint. His ears were about to grow calluses from all the racket.
"Brother, take with you. I need to blow off so steam and relieve my wounded soul."
... I will update this before three in the afternoon. Gotta get up, see ya.
