The Epic Revenge Chapter 1445: Don’t give up
Gu Qingzhou really didn't expect that a good run away from home would turn into suicide.
She also thought that the Xu family would hold on to this matter, and the security department would be busy for a while.
Unexpectedly, the Xu family bought a cemetery and buried Xu Pei, not to mention suicide.
It was Niu Huaigu who came to the door to ask them if they had any objections to Xu Pei's death, whether they suspected homicide, and when the police station intervened, the Xu family refused.
The Xu family determined that Xu Pei committed suicide, and did not want to tell the outside world why he committed suicide.
The mysterious disappearance case ended like this, Gu Qingzhou seemed to have a breath stuck in his throat, unable to go up or down.
But it's someone's housework after all, and it's not easy for others to manage without asking the Security Department.
Si Qiongzhi didn't believe it.
After she came back that day, she cried bitterly and was comforted by her father for a while before she got better.
She doesn't believe Xu Pei committed suicide.
"I know Xu Pei, he is in good health. Even if he suffers, he can accept it, he will not commit suicide." Si Qiongzhi said.
Meanwhile, she frequently went to Ruan's house.
The Ruan family locked Ruan Yanfeng, but Si Qiongzhi didn't see it.
So she went to check it herself.
Her adjutant found Xu Pei's last restaurant and asked the owner, "He was waiting for someone, and then a phone call came to him. What was said on the phone?"
The hotel owner said: "Miss, how can we hear the guest's phone call?"
"Then what did he say, do you remember?" Si Qiongzhi asked.
The boss thought about it.
There was no business at the time, so he was a little bored and stood by to watch Xu Pei make a phone call.
"When he just answered the phone, he called 'Mrs.'" the boss said. "When I answered the phone, there was an older woman."
Si Qiongzhi's heart shrank suddenly: "And then what?"
"Then, he was talking over there. His voice was relatively soft, but his face was not very good-looking. It should be that the person on the phone was not listening well." The boss said.
The boss recalled and remembered that the young man's face was blue at the time, but he was very angry and defended: "I won't hurt him."
Si Qiongzhi came out of the restaurant after listening to the boss's words.
She didn't know if she should tell Ruan Yanfeng or the Xu family about this.
She felt so powerless for the first time.
When she went to work the next day, she went to the inpatient department and was always absent-minded. Then she couldn't help it, so she slipped away and went to the top floor.
There is a large sunshade on the top floor, which is used by colleagues for gatherings during night shifts.
Few people come up during the day, because it is so hot that people can almost melt under the umbrella.
Si Qiongzhi sits under the umbrella unconsciously.
She had a pack of cigarettes in her pocket, which a child selling cigarettes insisted to sell to her when she passed by yesterday.
She hesitated, then pulled out one and lit it.
As soon as she took a sip, she choked to death.
A hand next to her snatched her cigarette and handed her a cup of ice cream.
Si Qiongzhi was sweating profusely from the heat, and her temples were all wet, but her face was a little red, her lips were more radiant, and she had some vitality, as if the beauty had just taken a bath.
She saw Pei Cheng.
She took the ice cream, put it on the small table, took out the handkerchief and wiped the sweat from her face.
"Stop smoking, eat some ice cream, and watch out for the heat." Pei Cheng said.
His voice was soft, and the eyes behind the lenses were deliberately softer.
Since the last weekend's book club, they haven't spoken for almost half a month.
Under a large umbrella, there is a small wooden table and four wooden chairs.
Pei Cheng sat down next to Si Qiongzhi, only to feel that the wooden chair was hot from the sun.
He only sat for two seconds, then stood up again: "Go to my office? It's too hot here, you're going to have a heat stroke in a while."
Si Qiongzhi said: "No..."
Pei Cheng reached out and grabbed her arm while picking up the ice cream on the table.
His hand was holding the ice cream box all the time, so it was slightly cold, and against Si Qiongzhi's slightly warm skin, she couldn't help but shudder.
She was pulled up by Pei Cheng.
"I'll go by myself." Si Qiongzhi struggled.
Pei Cheng withdrew his hand.
His hand was gently held up, as if her residual warmth was still there, and he couldn't bear to let that residual warmth dissipate.
His office is quiet and cool.
Pei Cheng also poured water for her to wash her face.
After Si Qiongzhi washed her face, she became a little more energetic, and the black vines that wrapped around her seemed to have faded away from her.
She sat down and started eating ice cream.
"What happened?" Pei Cheng asked her, "Is it your friend's suicide?"
When Pei Cheng was in Nanjing, his eyes were on Si Qiongzhi.
When she had a good relationship with Xu Pei and Ruan Yanfeng, he was also worried, but later found that it was far from the case.
She's really close to them, though.
"Yeah." Si Qiongzhi whispered, "I suspect that he did not commit suicide, or that he had an inside story. But his family couldn't wait to hide it and refused to talk about it. They would rather he died than talk about it."
Pei Cheng said: "I've heard of it."
Si Qiongzhi was shocked.
Pei Cheng met her unexpected eyes, and involuntarily raised his hand and pushed his glasses: "There is no impermeable wall in the world, there will always be people who say it, but the parents on both sides should not know."
Si Qiongzhi's eyes were confused.
"As long as the feelings are sincere and don't hurt the third person, they are worthy of praise. As for whether it conforms to the public's perception, these are too demanding." Pei Cheng said.
Si Qiongzhi asked cautiously, "You...do you mind that kind of feeling?"
"What is there to mind." Pei Cheng said.
"Although not hurting the third person, but hurting each other's family, I thought you would..." Si Qiongzhi's words were vague.
"Our parents treat their children as their own possessions. This item should be bragging about and grow with their minds.
But children are independent people with their own lives and feelings. If parents know how to respect and treat their children as human beings, they will not be hurt.
This kind of injury stems from the parents' possessiveness and their own fear of the world. It is not the children themselves that really hurt them, but themselves. " said Pei Cheng.
Si Qiongzhi felt sour.
Why are there no such transparent people in the Xu family?
She turned her face away slightly, blocked her tears, and said after a while, "Thank you."
Pei Cheng handed her a handkerchief.
Si Qiongzhi didn't cry, but her heart was heavy.
"What are you going to do?" Pei Cheng asked her, "Do you need me to help you?"
"I can't do anything." Si Qiongzhi said, "I only have a sense of powerlessness. His family has made a decision. I think he loves them, so he would rather die. I don't want to take his There is a lot of trouble at home."
Pei Cheng said: "Well. Actually, think about it, his family must also be uncomfortable, and more uncomfortable than you."
They chatted for a while, and Pei Cheng left early to observe another operation.
When he was about to leave, he found the spare key of his office: "This is for you. You can go after you have a rest. It's not very busy in the afternoon."
Before Si Qiongzhi refused, Pei Cheng left.
She sat alone for a long time, but couldn't find the strength. She left the office and returned to her workstation.
She's really tired. Before she knew it, she fell asleep on the sofa.
