C79

The window was broken, and the glass on the floor was stained with dark red blood.

Qi Yanzhi was leaning against the window, his right hand hanging by his side, badly mutilated.

"Mister!"

Seeing the blood constantly dripping down, Steward Zheng was so shocked that she quickly rushed forward.

"Get out."

It was Qi Yan Shang's heavy voice. It sounded very light, but it was full of deterrence that made Housekeeper Zheng stop in his tracks.

But how could she ignore the smell of blood and the broken glass in the man's hand?

"Sir, what are you doing?!"

In the end, she still asked this question. What was he doing, hurting himself?

"I'll let you out."

This time, Qi Yan Shang's tone was cold, without a doubt.

Butler Zheng stood on the spot, entering and exiting with difficulty. In the end, she could only helplessly shake her head …

"Miss Qiao has already left. Mister should accept the reality as soon as possible."

Housekeeper Zheng didn't know why he had to say this. Perhaps in her eyes, only those who couldn't accept the truth would do something that would hurt her and try to hide the pain she felt deep inside.

When there was only Qi Yan Shang in the study, he looked at the broken glass and his pale lips curled up. Accept the reality?

So it turned out that he had always been avoiding reality.

Qi Yan, what's the difference between you and a coward?

Shi Qian is right, you killed her.

Why? Why didn't he answer the phone that night? He couldn't imagine what she had experienced that night.

His stomach throbbed, and blood was still dripping from the wound on his hand, but he was unconscious of it.

All he could think of was her appearance.

Happy time, sad time, angry time, emotional time.

The last time I saw her was three days before the engagement party.

She thought he would find someone to make her an engagement ring, but he didn't.

He did not reply, but the woman was still smiling. "It's alright. There's also the wedding ring. Don't forget it when the time comes."

When Qiao Yonuo said this, there was a trace of indescribable disappointment in his eyes. However, most of it was in hopes of receiving his response.

At that time, Qi Yan was still silent.

What was he thinking then?

Mm, he was thinking, wasn't Qiao Yino the jewelry designer? What kind of ring would it be for her?

However, he had forgotten that no matter how beautifully she designed it, it wasn't from him.

From the beginning to the end, he treated this so-called marriage as a one-man show for Qiao Yino.

At the end of the day, she chose an engagement ring with the meaning of a blessing. On her slender middle finger, there was a dazzling light.

Qi Yan Shang didn't look at her, but said lightly, "Aren't you afraid that I won't come on the day of the engagement?"

Perhaps she was shocked by his words, but after a moment of reaction, she asked, "Will you not come?"

At that time, he did not reply, but only smiled indifferently. Afterwards, he used his actions to tell her the answer.

Only after losing him would he know how much of a bastard he used to be. Qi Yanzhong was absolutely a bastard.

"Stop messing around, we'll get married as soon as you come back."

This time, I'll always be there.

Whose mutters and words were clear only to be greeted with the sound of the wind blowing and the clouds moving, and the silence of the grass and trees.

I looked back, but you were no longer there.

Night, Qiao family's residence.

It was only with great difficulty that Joanne managed to stabilize her father. Father Qiao finally knew that Qiao Yinuo had been violated while he was still alive.

Fortunately, the doctor had been standing guard. The moment he was hit, the doctor injected him with medicine to calm him down.

Father Qiao seemed to have aged more than ten years. His face was pale and drawn, devoid of any trace of blood.

He just kept asking Joanne if there were any new news from the police station, if they found the person who violated the rules, if there was... Find out the cause of death.

As for Joanne, she just shook her head and told him time and time again that the police had no leads because they did not get any evidence from Qiao Yino.

No one knew who or what had happened to Qiao Yonuo.

"Dad, it's very possible that big sister was born lightly."

Joanne naturally didn't want things to continue to be investigated like this. Although the police couldn't find any evidence, as long as they couldn't find Yin Xiangze, she didn't need to worry about her, but … She still wanted Qiao Yino to be buried quickly. Only when his body turned into ashes and was buried in the ground, would she be completely at ease.

"Although I don't know what my sister went through while she was alive, this incident has had a great impact on the Qiao family. Now that I've been found out that my elder sister was probably violated while she was still alive, if this news gets out … What did the people from the city think of her!? She is already so pitiful. If she dies, wouldn't she be able to rest in peace?! "

Qiao Zhen was silent. He closed his eyes and frowned.

Joanne knew that her father would listen to everything she said now. If he truly loved his daughter, shouldn't he immediately bury her in the ground for the sake of her reputation?

"Dad, elder sister has been in the lake for so long that her corpse is no longer recognizable. It's already very pitiful. We shouldn't let her be homeless again."

Her every word and voice was filled with tears and hoarseness.

She knew that he must be having a hard time.

On the one hand, he wanted to know the truth about his daughter's death, and on the other, he wanted to know about her reputation and her rotten corpse.

"Dad, maybe … Elder sister was not forced by others, but voluntarily? "

When he heard the word 'voluntary', Qiao Zhen abruptly opened his eyes. His vicious gaze swept over Joanne, causing her body to tremble slightly. She knew that she had said the wrong thing.

"I want the truth."

That heavy voice had a hint of urgency in it, Father Qiao's body could no longer take the brunt of the blow.

But to him, there was nothing more painful than his daughter's death.

Compared to the truth of his daughter's death, the Qiao family's face was nothing.

"What if the police never find out?"

"I believe that the universe is vast and the world is vast."

Even if the police could not find a solution to the case, Qiao Zhenzhen would continue to investigate.

He wanted to know who it was that had violated his daughter! Even if he had to risk his old life, he would send that person to jail!

He slept soundly that night. He was afraid that Yin Xiangze would come back during the night, so he did not sleep soundly. He did not sleep soundly, and when he locked the door behind him, he was also in a state of panic.

She tried her best to avoid meeting Yin Xiangze. Even though she had used someone else to call the police and found the body, Yin Xiangze would definitely suspect her with his meticulous thoughts.

After all, she was the only one who had followed him there.

It was her, too, taking advantage of his drunkenness that night to trick him out of it.

He was afraid that the man would be wary of him in the future. He could take action against Joanne, this sister of his … If they were to threaten him, it was likely that they wouldn't end well either.

After washing up, she looked at her neck. The red mark was still very deep. She had to use a few layers of powder to barely cover it.

After arriving at ST, Yi Chen's seat was still empty. Did she really not want to come back?

"Designer Yin, why are you still so stubborn?"

Since he had joined the company, the assistant assigned to Yin Qinghuan had said this. He probably wanted to advise her not to be stubborn and that the match had already been cancelled.

Joanne and Yen Chen did not come back to the company. She was the only one … It was unknown what he was still holding on to.

"Has Director Gu come to the company yet?"

The woman disapproved and asked. The assistant shook her head.

"No, it seems like there's something wrong with my body. I'm in the hospital."

Shallow hospital?!

Yin Qing's indifferent expression suddenly froze for a moment. The teacup in her hand shook, and a warm liquid spilled out from within it.

She put the cup down and looked around. There weren't many people in the design department. She lowered her eyes in thought, then picked up her bag and left.

The assistant watched as the woman left before sighing and shaking her head.

He was afraid that before long, he would also lose his job.

ST Current Situation... Very bad.

Yin Qinghuan went to the hospital. On the way, she called Gu Wenliu, but he didn't answer.

At the crossroads, at the red light, she stopped the car. Her face was still anxious.

She didn't want her body to get injured because of this incident. After all, she still had a tiny life in her stomach.

When she arrived at the hospital, she asked the nurse at the reception desk and knew that she was in the maternity ward on the fifteenth floor.

As soon as she stepped out of the elevator, she saw a man standing at the end of the long corridor. Gu Wen lit a cigarette. The green and white smoke twined around his fingers, and his normally charming phoenix eyes were now only dim.

"Director Gu."

Yin Qinghuan walked over and spoke in a leisurely manner.

Gu Wenliu turned around and looked at the woman walking towards him. His eyes narrowed.

Without waiting for him to speak, Yin Qinghuan continued, "I just called you, you didn't answer." I knew she was in the hospital, so I wanted to see her. "

Gu Wen extinguished the cigarette in his hand, his expression still indifferent.

He had seen Yin Qinghuan's phone call earlier, but hadn't answered it. He thought that the reason why this woman was here was to take the examination. He didn't expect her to come... He had come to see his wife.

"I don't think she wants to see you now."

The shallow condition had just stabilized and she was seven months pregnant. She could no longer be stimulated. The promise had brought her close to collapse. She would have to stay in the hospital until the child was safely born. Yin Qinghuan … No matter what, she was still Qi Yan's woman. Qi Yan Shang was now the woman he hated the most.

Yin Qinghuan was naturally clear why he had said that. She nodded her head without denying anything. However … She had to see it now.

There were some things he wanted to tell her.

"Is she all right?"

"Right."

The man's reply didn't sound like Gu Wenliu at all. Looking at him, it was the first time that Yin Qinghuan felt that Er Lizi had such a cold side to him.

He and she were alone in the hallway. The woman's gaze was fixed on the ward. She knew that sometimes, she was inside, but when she didn't see anyone, she was still worried.

However, when Gu Wenliu looked at the white wall, he suddenly asked, "Did Qi Yan Shang go to find you?"

"…" Not expecting him to ask, she hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

"Yes, the night before yesterday. Early in the morning."

The night before yesterday, Gu Wen Liu's eyes were downcast. If he hadn't guessed wrongly, Qi Yan Shang should have gone to the police station to look for Yin Qinghuan.

He should have seen 'her'.

"Disconnected with you?"

When Gu Wenliu said those words, she could clearly hear the mocking tone in his voice.

"Something like that."

She replied calmly, as if she didn't care at all. There was no longer any point in breaking off this relationship. He believed that Gu Wenliu should also understand the meaning of 'regret' and 'time'.

Since people were already dead, what was the point in regretting it?
