“Calm down! It’s me. It’s me.”
The ‘ghostly face’ disappeared all of a sudden. Then, Mu Yu found herself in the arms of a familiar man amid the darkness. Upon recognizing Qin Jinhuan’s voice, she clutched her chest, heaved a long sigh of relief, and shook him off angrily. “Don’t you know you can literally scare people to death?”
Qin Jinhuan whispered in her ear with an apologetic smile and said, “I was joking with you, Darling. I thought forensic doctors have nerves of steel.”
“We forensic doctors have nerves of steel only when it comes to dead bodies. That doesn’t mean we aren’t scared of people who pretend to be dead and disguise themselves as ghosts…” Mu Yu replied, only to stop mid-sentence when she suddenly realized that it was inauspicious to say the words ‘people who pretend to be dead.’ She immediately changed the subject by asking, “How did you know I’m here?”
Qin Jinhuan led her out as he explained, “I was looking
Rong Jian and Feng Rubing stayed in Huacheng for three days before returning to An City with plenty of clues about Qian Daqing.Qian Daqing hadn’t graduated junior high when he left the Qian Hamlet to work in Huacheng. However, he was lazy at work and always stood up to his bosses, so he was fired from multiple jobs in a row. In a fit of pique, he beat up one of his bosses and trashed the latter’s shop. However, Huacheng was unlike the Qian Hamlet, so he was locked up soon afterward. To get him out of jail, his parents begged almost all of their relatives and friends on their knees and even sold their farmlands to scrape up enough money to compensate the wounded for his loss.After suffering enough in jail, Qian Daqing learned his lesson upon his release. He did everything possible to cozy up to several gangsters whom he considered quite capable. He ended up joining them, but he was smart enough to not get involved in drug dealing, murder, and forced
Mu Yu took a few deep breaths in disbelief while trying hard to calm herself down. After barely pulling herself together, she carefully reread the text message from beginning to end without missing a word. Still, she couldn’t believe what was said in the text message. As her hands trembled, she dialed the phone number from which the text message was sent, only to hear a voice saying that the number she had dialed was unavailable.She massaged her aching temples hard, clutched her cell phone, and read the text message carefully once again. The more she read it, the more it struck a chill into her heart, and the angrier she became. If everything in this text message is true, how am I going to trust Huan in the future? Wait, calm down! I haven’t figured out the intentions of the person who sent this text message, so I mustn’t get all in a fluster. Perhaps this is just someone’s malicious attempt to drive a wedge between us. I have to find out the truth about this! B
Mu Yu was already in the hospital when she regained consciousness.“How do you feel now, Yu?”She opened her eyes and heard Qin Jinhuan’s voice, which was full of anxiety, before she was fully awake. At the same time, her hand was being held tightly; she knew without thinking that the hand that grabbed hers must be his. As her memory froze at the instant her body fell headlong, she was instantly seized with panic. She subconsciously grabbed his hand in return while shouting his name.“I’m here! I’m here! It’s all right, so don’t be afraid,” Qin Jinhuan comforted her as he held her in his arms.“She’s come round at last.”Upon hearing Rong Jian’s voice, Mu Yu immediately pushed Qin Jinhuan aside, looked at Rong Jian, and asked, “Chief Rong? Are you all right?”“I’m fine,” Rong Jian replied with a smile after heaving a long sigh.“How’s the person called Brother Peng then?” Before Mu Yu p
After leaving Fraternity Hospital, Mu Yu hailed a taxi and headed straight to Qing Tian Building. When she was a distance away from the hospital, she sent Qin Jinhuan a text message to avoid giving Bian Zijun any trouble. She told him she was suddenly craving some crackers, so she wanted to go shopping at the supermarket—after all, she knew that he rarely checked his phone. Following that, she searched up Yin Anran’s phone number and called her, making her identity clear as soon as the call was picked up. “Do you need anything?” the woman asked warily. On the other end of the line, Yin Anran was audibly surprised to receive a call from Mu Yu. “Yeah, I have something to discuss. Let’s meet at Destiny Cafe in 15 minutes.” Mu Yu willed herself to keep calm as she spoke. There was a brief hesitation before Yin Anran asked, “Can we talk on the phone? I’m a little busy, so I might not have time to meet.” Mu Yu di
The night fell, and the lights of all the houses were on.Usually, at this time, Mu Yu had already gotten off work. She and Xi would be chatting with Grandpa in the living room, waiting for Qin Jinhuan to get off work and have dinner together as a family. But at this time, she was drooping her head and staggering in an unknown alley.Her mood was so complicated that it was like a pot of hotchpotch. The word "bad" was simply inadequate to describe her current state of mind.She still held the phone tightly in her hand. The message that broke her peaceful life was still quietly kept in her phone.At first, when she read this message, she was shocked but also not quite convinced. After asking Liu Xiaofan so many questions, she was still skeptical. However, after she asked Yin Anran in a roundabout way, she could no longer say no to herself and could no longer choose to deceive herself.She really did not want to do
"Yu, please no...""We have nothing more to talk about." Mu Yu fiercely shook off Qin Jinhuan's hand and turned around angrily.However, before she could move, Qin Jinhuan hugged her tightly."Can you calm down and listen to my explanation?""Am I not calm enough? How calm do I have to be?""Then listen to me!" He turned her around and they looked into each other's eyes. "I did do something wrong regarding this matter. I apologize to you. I will do my best to make up for you in the future. But I swear to you, I really didn't mean to be partial to Yin Anran...""If you really don't mean to be partial to her, then call the police immediately and let the police investigate this case again!""Listen to me!" Qin Jinhuan was a little upset after being interrupted by her. "The reason that I didn't choose to call the police was not to protect Yin Anran, but for Qing Tian Group, Grandpa, and mys
In Free World, Qin Wentao's Home.Qin Wentao and Dong Yueyun were sitting in the living room, watching TV while sipping tea and chatting. They didn't expect Qin Jinhuan to suddenly visit them. They were so surprised that they stood up at the same time to greet him."Huan, why are you here?" Dong Yueyun asked the servant to make tea and greeted Qin Jinhuan with a smile.Qin Jinhuan glanced coldly at the two of them. He did not say anything and directly sat down in front of the sofa. Bian Zijun, Huang Bo, and Weng Yun stood on the side. All of them looked very grim.Dong Yueyun, who was already nervous, was even more frightened at this time. She looked at them at a loss and then looked at Qin Wentao.Qin Jinhuan's behavior made Qin Wentao very unhappy. He stepped forward and blocked his wife behind his back. He asked Qin Jinhuan with a long face, "What are you doing here?"Qin Jinhuan raised his eyes
"Rooftop? What is she going to do?" Qin Jinhuan was shocked."She just said she wanted to stay there alone for a moment, but she was crying when saying those words. I think things are definitely not that simple!" Jiang Wenwen cried even louder. "Come quickly, I can't stop her! I'm so afraid that she will...""Find a way to stall her! I'll be right there!" Qin Jinhuan didn't dare to continue listening to her words and quickly interrupted her. At the same time, he quickly ordered Weng Yun to drive to Splendor Residency. Then, he looked at Bian Zijun and ordered, "Ask the brothers near Splendor Residency to go to the rooftop where Dong Wanqing committed suicide! Stop Yu from going to the rooftop!""Yes!"Realizing how serious the situation was, Bian Zijun immediately issued a group message to the brothers. Soon, five or six brothers said that they were nearby, and all of them stopped what they were doing and rushed over as fast
