"Hehehe, Wanwan, you are so interesting. Emperor Ye is indeed very kind to Sheng Xinyi, but her treatment of Sheng Xinyi is not called treating her like a treasure, but repaying a debt. Emperor Ye treating you well for no reason and without asking for anything in return is called treating her like a treat. Like a treasure.”
Qin Yueying looked at Gu Xiwan's face carefully and spoke meaningfully.
Gu Xiwan's eyes were strange, she lowered her eyelashes and said no more words.
Qin Yueying continued,
"Ever since the day you and Emperor Ye divorced, Emperor Ye asked me to take over as housekeeper Cheng to find out the culprit behind the murder of you by hiring a killer not long ago. He asked me to focus on investigating Sheng Xinyi."
"How can this be!"
Gu Xiwan's eyebrows jumped. The excessive shock caused her voice to rise several decibels.
"More than ten days ago, it was reasonable for Chu Lingjue to investigate Sheng Xinyi for me, but Sheng Xinyi's parents passed away one after another, and Sheng Xinyi was no longer the same...
After what happened, Chu Lingjue's guilt for Sheng Xinyi's family has been deeply rooted in his bones. Even if Sheng Xinyi has done something vicious, Chu Lingjue will not pursue it anymore. Besides, Chu Lingjue and I have already drawn a clear line. He will never There's no way I'm still holding on to that thing! "
Qin Yueying sighed softly,
"Yes, when Emperor Ye arranged for me to investigate Miss Sheng, I was puzzled. I also asked him the questions you suspected, but he just said to me coldly that he owed you that, no matter what, He must give you an explanation."
"..." Looking blankly at Qin Yueying's delicate but solemn face, Gu Xiwan couldn't say a word for a long time.
Perhaps it was because of women's unique sixth sense. Although Gu Xiwan did not find any evidence, she was extremely sure that the assassin of "Dark Night" tried to erase her memory must have something to do with Sheng Xinyi.
And even an insignificant grain of sand falling into the vast ocean will cause ripples. Therefore, no matter how careful Sheng Xinyi is in doing things, it is impossible not to leave some clues.
What's more, Gu Xiwan knew Chu Lingjue's strength. If Chu Lingjue continued to pursue it, Sheng Xinyi's true colors would one day be revealed.
However, Sheng Xinyi is the person Chu Lingjue owes the most, and now Sheng Xinyi has become as mentally disturbed as a child. Gu Xiwan does not know that under such circumstances, when the day Chu Lingjue finds out the truth, Chu Lingjue will Where to go.
As if she could see through Gu Xiwan's thoughts, Qin Yueying continued,
"When I was investigating this matter, I was surprised to find that Butler Cheng had actually found some evidence before. I don't know what Butler Cheng's motives were for destroying all the evidence. However, I still found some doubts. I can guarantee that within ten days, I will make sure the truth about this matter comes to light."
"oh?"
Gu Xiwan was not excited at all, her eyes were filled with indifference.
"What happens when the truth comes out?"
"I don't know either……"
Qin Yueying shook her head in confusion,
"I think that since Emperor Ye is determined to pursue this matter, he must have made a decision. If the murderer behind the scenes is really Miss Sheng, he will definitely give you justice."
"Ha." Gu Xiwan laughed.
Never expected that Gu Xiwan would react like this, Qin Yueying was obviously stunned.
After a while, he asked,
"Wanwan, are you okay? This matter is so serious, why are you still laughing?"
"I just think it's funny."
Gu Xiwan raised her eyebrows in relief, and there was only coldness on her pretty face.
"Sister Shadow, have you ever thought about this issue from Chu Lingjue's perspective?
You think, Sheng Xinyi is the savior of Chu Lingjue and his mother. When you find out the truth, if Chu Lingjue really wants to give me justice as he said, the most likely thing he will do is to bring the evidence Leave it to the police and let Sheng Xinyi be punished by law. In that case, even if Sheng Xinyi is not sentenced to death, she will still go to jail. In that case, Chu Lingjue has given me justice. Wouldn't he be ungrateful to Sheng Xinyi? ?
Thinking about it from the other side, if Chu Lingjue cannot bear to attack Sheng Xinyi and continues to protect Sheng Xinyi even if he learns the truth, then what he vowed to you to give me justice will become nonsense. ? As a result, his previous image of being true to his word no longer exists, and he has become a hypocritical villain who talks freely...hehehehe...
So, Sister Shadow, think about it, when the truth comes out, no matter what you do, Chu Lingjue is no longer a human being, don’t you think it’s funny? "
Qin Yueying was stunned.
She stared intently at Gu Xiwan's face, which was so beautiful and enchanting because of her smile. Suddenly, she felt a pain in her heart that felt like being pierced by a sharp knife.
Gu Xiwan!
The Emperor Ye was so kind to her back then!
Qin Yueying even witnessed Ye Di risking his own death with Gu Xiwan to defuse the bomb for Gu Xiwan. Even now, Ye Di still wants to give her justice...
With Ye Di's IQ, how could he not have imagined how difficult a decision he would face once he found out that the culprit who harmed Gu Xiwan was Sheng Xinyi.
And knowing this, Emperor Ye still had no hesitation!
However, Gu Xiwan didn't appreciate it at all. She responded with Ye Di's only sarcasm... as if Ye Di who did this for her was a clown...
"Wanwan...this..."
Qin Yueying didn't know how she made the sound. She stared at Gu Xiwan's face for a moment, as if she wanted to see a trace of Gu Xiwan's insincere words on Gu Xiwan's face.
"Are these your sincere words? The person I know is reasonable and repays kindness. I don't believe you would still ridicule Ye Emperor at this time. I don't believe these are what you said. What's wrong with you?"
"ha!"
Gu Xiwan sneered,
"I thought only Chu Lingjue was a fool, but I didn't expect that his most trusted assistants are as stupid as him, you guys! What kind of elites are standing at the top of Haicheng? I think they are just a bunch of stupid and stupid pigs. "
Qin Yueying's tall body swayed.
Gu Xiwan had a look of arrogance on her face, then she raised her eyebrows and raised her eyes sarcastically.
"It's ridiculous. I've lied to you for so long. Can't you still see it now? The person you call me who is reasonable and repays kindness is what I performed in front of you and Chu Lingjue before. I'm not like that. Acting, how can I make Chu Lingjue completely devoted to me, and how can I secure my throne as the wealthy wife of my wealthy family?
Now, I finally don’t have to wear a mask all the time to act, hey! It’s so easy to be your true self! "
"Wanwan, you...
I……"
As if suffering a fatal blow, Qin Yueying's words were incoherent.
She calmed down for at least five seconds before regaining some composure, but the hurt and disappointment in her eyes were too strong to be concealed no matter how hard she tried.
She looked away from Gu Xiwan's face sadly and said feebly,
"I have never misjudged someone before. Among the hundreds of girls I know, you are the one I like the most. How could I never have imagined that you are the only one I have misjudged...
All right!
Gu Xiwan! I will pretend that I have never met you. In the future, no matter what happens, I will never take the initiative to look for you again. You can take care of yourself. "
After saying that, he turned around and left.
Gu Xiwan stared at Qin Yueying's figure.
Perhaps it is because as Chu Lingjue's right-hand man, he often spends time with Chu Lingjue and is exposed to Chu Lingjue's cold temperament, Qin Yueying's temperament is as cold and aloof as Chu Lingjue... So much so that Gu When Xiwan first saw Qin Yueying, she was too scared to get close to him.
However, the longer Gu Xiwan spent time with Qin Yueying, the more she discovered that Qin Yueying was good——
Just like Chu Lingjue——
He is cold and keeps people away, but he is extremely gentle, pampering, and even indulgent to the people he cares about.
Gu Xiwan sincerely wanted to be lifelong good friends with Qin Yueying.
However, Qin Yueying happened to be the person next to Chu Lingjue, and she was also the person Chu Lingjue trusted the most.
She must stay away from anyone who gets close to Chu Lingjue!
At this time, Qin Yueying had already walked out of the yard.
Her red Porsche was parked under the sycamore tree outside the courtyard. She opened the door and got into the car. As she closed the door, she suddenly looked back at Gu Xiwan in the courtyard and said unwillingly,
"Let me ask you again, was every word you said, every action you made, and every look in your eyes in front of Ye Di and me in the past all an act? You have never had any true feelings for me or Ye Di. Do you mean it?"
Gu Xiwan raised her chin high.
She looked at Qin Yueying with crooked eyebrows and a sneer on her face, as if she was succeeding.
"Idiot! What kind of true feelings are there? On the big stage of modern society, everyone plays their role with a mask of hypocrisy. Whoever expresses true feelings will lose...
Look at me, a few days ago I was the wife of Chu Lingjue, the business emperor. After I divorced him, I moved into Chu Lingxiao’s villa. Because I’m good at acting, everyone thinks I’m very good. Everyone loves me and I'm doing so well! I am the winner in life! "
It was as if a cold wind blew in front of Qin Yueying's eyes, and the last glimmer of hope for Gu Xiwan in her eyes was blown to pieces.
She didn't say another word, just lowered her eyelashes in despair, closed the car door, started the car, and sped away as if running away.
Gu Xiwan looked at the place where Qin Yueying was before she left for a moment. The moment she was sure that Qin Yueying could no longer see her in the rearview mirror, the smile she had put on before suddenly appeared on her face. Dissipated, tears silently covered her face.
I just want to say sorry to Qin Yueying.
She could only draw a clear line with Qin Yueying in this way.
Gu Xiwan didn't want to have anything to do with Chu Lingjue anymore, nor did she want Chu Lingjue to pay anything for her.
I hope Qin Yueying will stop investigating Sheng Xinyi after realizing her "coldness and ruthlessness", so that Chu Lingjue will no longer be in trouble for her.
…
For the past seven days, Gu Xiwan has been staying in this seaside villa. After this week of recuperation, not only was her body recovering day by day, but her mental state was also much better. She really couldn't stay at home anymore, so she decided to go out for a walk. visit.
Gu Xiwan wanted to take her mother with her, but her sleepy mother was sleeping at the moment;
Gu Xiwan called Mu Yiran to make an appointment, but Mu Yiran told her that she already had an appointment and hung up the phone in a hurry.
Gu Xiwan had no choice but to go alone.
About half an hour later, Gu Xiwan arrived at "Haicheng Commercial Building".
"Haicheng Commercial Building" is quite famous in Haicheng. The first to third floors sell some affordable goods that ordinary people can afford. The fourth and fifth floors are some luxury brands, where the rich go.
Gu Xiwan had been a wealthy wife for more than four months, and during that period, although Chu Lingjue had given her a bank card, except when she had to use it to pay a rent deposit once, Chu Lingjue's money has never been spent.
On the day she decided to divorce Chu Lingjue, she also left the bank card that Chu Lingjue had given her on the bedside table in her bedroom... So, if Gu Xiwan in those days could at least be able to spend time with Chu Lingjue, If Ling Jue's money is used to buy luxury goods, now she is not even qualified to buy luxury goods.
So, Gu Xiwan decided to go shopping on the second floor of "Haicheng Commercial Building".
Gu Xiwan came to the second floor.
She was looking at women's clothing in a clothing store when suddenly someone patted her back behind her.
"Gu Xiwan, is that you?"
"yes."
Gu Xiwan reflexively nodded in agreement while looking back. The next second, a beautiful face came into her sight.
In fact, calling this face "beautiful" is a bit inappropriate.
Because the owner of this face is a man.
However, this face has delicate features, fair and smooth skin, and a pair of thin lips with a light rouge. At first glance, this face is more delicate and beautiful than most women...
Although he has such a "beautiful" face, the man's figure is tall and strong, and his long legs are particularly conspicuous.
"Song Qingxiao!"
Gu Xiwan couldn't help calling out the man's name.
"Yeah! Yeah!" The man walked up to Gu Xiwan with bright eyes and a bright smile.
"Wanwan, we are not only neighbors, but also high school classmates. We used to play together. Two years ago, because...
Haha, because of that incident, I went to country F. I just came back today. It has been two years. This is the first time I have returned to the country. We are really destined. I wanted to contact you after I returned to the country, but I went to your house to find you. I discovered that your villa was no longer there. I asked my mother and found out that there was a fire in your home not long ago. Your home was burned to rubble, and your father, your mother, and Xue'er are no longer here. "
Gu Xiwan didn't want to think about Gu Shenhai, Zhang Yulian, and Gu Baixue, so she just nodded.
At this time, Song Qingxiao had already taken Gu Xiwan's right arm and said with a smile,
"Wanwan, since you are alone, let's go and go shopping together."
"Um."
Gu Xiwan didn't shy away from it either. She and Song Qingxiao held each other's arms and continued to look at the clothes.
In fact, Gu Xiwan is traditional at heart. Not only does she always try to keep a distance from the opposite sex, she even tries to be concise and concise when talking to the opposite sex. She never talks about other topics except what is necessary.
But Song Qingxiao is different!
The reason why Song Qingxiao is different is that Song Qingxiao is not interested in the opposite sex. He likes men...
It was precisely because Song Qingxiao's difference was discovered by his father two years ago, and Song Qingxiao's old-fashioned father could not accept his son doing such "deviant" things, that Song Qingxiao had no choice but to marry his boyfriend. My friends went to country F, a country with an open view on love.
In the past, Gu Xiwan always regarded Song Qingxiao as a sister. Although Gu Xiwan would not be too close to Song Qingxiao, she would not avoid it like she avoided other men.
After Gu Xiwan and Song Qingxiao visited the clothing store on the second floor together, they decided to go shopping on the third floor.
As they were walking up the stairs arm in arm, a slightly sharp voice suddenly came from behind them,
"Oh my God! Who is that? Gu Xiwan? I won't be hallucinating, right? Brother, did you see how tightly he and that man hugged each other, right? She just divorced you. How many days have you found a new boyfriend so soon?"
Gu Xiwan immediately recognized Chu Yujiao's voice.
At the same time, Gu Xiwan felt a chill rising from the soles of her feet to the center of her eyebrows——
Because Chu Yujiao just called her "brother", who else could Chu Yujiao's "brother" be besides Chu Lingjue?
Gu Xiwan could not have imagined that her first meeting with Chu Lingjue after their divorce would be in such a situation.
"Holy shit!
Brother, it’s been less than ten days since Gu Xiwan’s miscarriage. I can’t help but think that her lower body is not clean yet! She couldn't wait to find a boyfriend. When they did it, there was still blood. This... was too spicy! "
