Chapter 157: Powerlessness

Song Yu was weak and sad, and his doubts were even more anxious if they were not answered. A pair of eyes stared straight at Tang Xu, waiting for him to speak.

She hadn't slept all night, her mind was dizzy, and the dark circles on her pale face made her look sluggish. Like an eggplant beaten by frost.

Tang Xu didn't seem to notice her eagerness, and went straight to the bedroom. I went to the bedroom to change my clothes and came out before saying, "I'm still recording a confession over there." ”

It means that she should not make up her mind first. The doubts she could see could be seen over there.

Song Yu was a little disgusted, and stopped talking now.

Her spirit was not good at all, Tang Xu glanced at her, she wanted to say something, but before she could say anything, the doorbell rang.

He didn't speak anymore and went straight to open the door.

Outside, there was a takeaway guy, and he ordered takeout. He quickly took the takeout and entered the house, and when he saw that Song Yu was still sitting, he said, "Come over and eat, go and sleep after eating." ”

Song Yu had been waiting for news from him all morning, and had completely forgotten to make lunch. When he heard him say that, he came back to his senses and said, "I'm going back to the branch in the afternoon." ”

Tang Xu's movements paused slightly, looked at her, and said, "Please take leave." Do you think you'll be able to go to work when you're like this?"

Song Yu is indeed not in the state now. She pursed her lips and didn't speak. Walked over to the table and sat down.

She didn't have an appetite and didn't eat much. probably knew that she was unwilling to go to sleep, and after eating, Tang Xu reiterated it again, saying that she asked Xiao Yun to send her there after she woke up.

Song Yu didn't insist after all and went to the bedroom.

Even though the curtains were closed, the room was pitch black, and she still couldn't sleep. Tossing and turning for a long time, forcing myself not to think about anything. It was an hour before she fell asleep in a daze.

She slept in the bedroom, and Tang Xu stayed in the study but didn't move. He held a cigarette in his hand, and his handsome face was cold and gloomy.

Before he finished his cigarette, his phone rang. He took one look, snuffed out the cigarette butt, picked it up, and fed it.

I didn't know what the person on the other end of the line said, but he listened quietly. Only the cold expression that hadn't changed much showed his emotions.

The person on the other end of the phone talked for a long time, and after he finished speaking, he hummed lightly and said that he understood.

When he hung up the phone, he directly dialed another number.

Tang Xu stayed in the study all afternoon, and answered several phone calls. A few cigarette butts were also thrown out of the ashtray.

When Song Yu slept until the evening and got up, Xiao Yun was already at home, talking to Tang Xu. Seeing Song Yu standing up, he politely called his wife.

It was already dark outside, and Song Yu slept for four hours.

I don't know what the two were talking about, and she couldn't find anything to say, so after looking at the time, she asked, "Have you eaten?"

Tang Xu didn't speak, Xiao Yun said respectfully: "I called Auntie, and I will send it over later." ”

Knowing that the two of them should have something to say, Song Yu nodded and went back to the room to wash and change clothes.

By the time she came out, her aunt had already come over, carrying a food box. The food on the table was still steaming.

Xiao Yun had disappeared at this time, but Tang Xu sat down at the table and said, "Eat." After eating, put away your things, Xiao Yun will send you back. Tell him if you need anything and let him take care of it for you. ”

Song Yu responded with a hello. She wanted to ask something, but in the end she didn't ask anything.

Tang Xu didn't speak, and when he was about to finish eating, he said, "Don't think nonsense, the case is investigated by the police." I'll also be watching on my side, and I'll tell you if there's any news. ”

Song Yu nodded and did not speak.

Xiao Yun didn't know where he went when they were eating, as if he was pinching a little, and he reappeared after eating. Obviously waiting to send Song Yu to Yun'an.

Tang Xu didn't know where to go, so he went out with them. The car drove out of the neighborhood before them.

Although he had slept for a while, Song Yu was still tired. After getting into the car, he closed his eyes and pretended to sleep.

Although Tang Xu asked her to leave it alone, her mind was chaotic, and she couldn't calm down if she wanted to. She finally opened her eyes, looked at Xiao Yun, and asked, "Did you Tang always find out anything?"

She didn't say it clearly, but Xiao Yun knew what she meant. Said politely: "Mr. Tang asked me to pay attention to the police." ”

If you say this, you don't say it.

His mouth has always been very strict, and Tang Xu can't ask anything from his mouth if he doesn't open his mouth. Song Yu was a little stupid, and wanted to ask again, but finally closed his mouth in a huff.

I couldn't ask anything, so I didn't bother to speak again.

Xiao Yun didn't stay long in Yun'an City, and after sending Song Yu to the hotel, he asked Song Yu if he needed help, and then immediately returned to Qinghe City.

Song Yu has been looking for a house since last week, and he has looked at several places that are not very suitable. Later, I saw a suitable place, but the landlord temporarily changed the hexagram, saying that his nephew was coming over and could not rent it. Song Yu had no choice but to give up in the end.

She can't afford to stay in the hotel all the time, after getting off work back to the hotel to change clothes, she was about to look for a house, to the lobby was called by the lobby manager of the hotel.

After living here for a few days, Song Yu was already familiar with her face, and when she saw someone calling her, she greeted someone.

Manager Yu saw that she was going out to dress up, so he asked, "Is Miss Song going out to find a house?"

It's no secret that she's looking for a house, and she's asked at the front desk where there are houses for rent nearby.

Song Yu smiled and said yes. As soon as she wanted to ask Manager Yu what was wrong, Manager Yu said, "My relative's family happens to have a house to rent, and the house is a new house." Originally, it was used as a wedding room for my cousin, but my cousin bought a new house in Y City due to work transfer, so this suite is going to be rented out. The rent they ask for is not very high, and they have been looking for a house recently, so they came to ask you. ”

Song Yu was already tired of looking for a house, and after hearing Manager Yu's words, she simply asked the community where the house was located, and asked Manager Yu to contact her relatives, planning to go to see the house quickly.

Manager Yu didn't lie, the house is new, not big two bedrooms and one living room. Hardly lived and everything was still new. The house is located in a nice neighborhood with security guards patrolling 24 hours a day. The price of rent is also very reasonable, even lower than what is available in the market.

Because it is a new house, the owner has only one requirement, that is, to cherish the house. You can't make a mess of the house.

The house is very close to the place where you go to work, five or six minutes away. It was not easy to find a suitable house, so Song Yu signed the contract almost immediately.

Song Yu didn't have anything, and moved over the next day after a simple cleaning.

She was tired of eating things outside, so she moved here and started shopping for vegetables and cooking for herself. The owner only came once in a while, and the kitchen was all new. They haven't been opened yet.

Although she came to work, she was always worried about the progress of the case. But no news came out. She called Peng Xi to ask about it, but there was no news from Peng Xi's side. It's just that when they saw the girl's body, the family cried and fainted. The girl's grandfather is still in the intensive care unit.

As for the progress of the case, it has not been made public, Lao Huang has run over, but he has not received any news.

Tang Xu didn't call her either, I don't know if there was no news. Song Yu wanted to call him, but in the end he didn't call. I'm going to ask him when I get back on the weekend.

Song Yu hadn't gone back yet, but when he was watching the news on Wednesday, he saw the news of Tang Chengen's participation in the election. He was joined by two others, but some speculated that he would be the winner.

After all, he is from the Tang family.

Song Yu has never paid attention to the news in the political circles, and now when he saw Tang Chengen, who was smiling gently and elegantly on the news, he only felt that it was extremely fake, and he didn't even want to watch it anymore.

She didn't pay attention and quickly put the matter behind her.

Yun'an City is not big, and it has been vigorously developing tourism over the years. There aren't many things to report, they're all trivial. So much so that the people in the club are idle, and most of the time they stay in the office, waiting for someone to call before going out.

Sister Du in the office never wasted time, and after finishing the work that should be done, she took out the woolen ball she carried with her and began to knit a scarf.

According to her colleagues in the company, she never left her hands, knitting scarves, sweaters, sweaters, sweaters, and socks. There is no idle time all year round.

She was very enthusiastic, and when she saw that Song Yu was not used to such leisure, she smiled and said, "Xiao Song, do you want to learn from me and knit a scarf for your family." The scarf you knit yourself is much warmer than the one you bought. ”

Song Yu's mind came to Tang Xu's face, and he was a little distracted, smiled, and said, "I'm clumsy, I don't know if I can learn well." ”

Sister Du said with a smile: "Why can't you learn well? Come, I'll tell you what to prepare, and tomorrow you will bring it and I will teach you slowly. ”

Song Yu hesitated slightly, answered a good sentence, and said something to trouble Sister Du.

Sister Du waved her hand and said with a smile: "It's not troublesome, it's a big deal." I'll tell you what to buy. ”

Song Yu smiled and wrote it down.

Weaving things seems simple, but it is not simple, and the thread ball has become beautiful in Sister Du's hands. In her hands, it was crooked and grotesque.

Although she felt that she had no talent, she did not give up. still asked for advice, and found the old line group that Sister Du didn't want to practice.

The weekend came quickly, and Song Yu still returned to Qinghe City as he did last week. So running back and forth is actually quite tiring, she came back this time to ask about the situation of the case, and the other is to bring all the clothes that should be brought, and then come back when there is a holiday.

It's been so long since she's been to the old mansion, and she plans to go over this time and come back next time.

With these intentions, she didn't wait until the next day to set off. I took the last train on Friday evening, and it arrived at eight o'clock.

When I returned home, Tang Xu was still not there, and my aunt probably hadn't come over, and there was nothing in the refrigerator. There were only a few eggs and tomatoes that weren't very fresh and I didn't know when I bought them.

At this time, she didn't bother to go out to buy food anymore, so she made a bowl of tomato egg noodles with tomatoes and eggs.

Tang Xu didn't come back until after ten o'clock in the evening. At that time, Song Yu was sitting on the sofa watching TV. She said she was watching TV, but she didn't see anything.

Seeing Tang Xu coming back, she stood up and said, "I'm back." ”

Tang Xu was not surprised to see her, nodded, and asked, "Why don't you ask Xiao Yun to pick you up?"

Song Yu said, it's very convenient for me to come back by myself.

Tang Xu did not speak.

I hadn't seen him for a week, and he looked a little different than usual. The whole person is a little cold and cold, and at first glance, I know that I am in a bad mood.

Song Yu originally wanted to ask him directly about the case, but when he saw him like this, he didn't ask, hesitated for a moment, and asked tentatively, "Did something happen?"

Tang Xu threw the blazer aside, pulled the tie on his body, and said that it was okay. After a slight pause, he continued, "Do you have anything to eat at home?" ”

He hadn't eaten when he came back so late.

Song Yu remembered the eggs left in the refrigerator and said, "There are only tomato eggs and noodles, can you make egg noodles?"

Tang Xu responded well, stopped talking nonsense, and went to the bathroom to take a shower and change clothes.

Song Yu went into the kitchen and found eggs and tomatoes. After rummaging through it for a while, I found a box of luncheon meat that had not expired and took it out.

Tang Xu's movements were very fast, and when she cooked the luncheon meat, tomatoes, and egg noodles, he had already taken a shower and came out. His hair was still wet and dripping, and he wiped it with a towel.

The noodles tend to stick after a long time, so he wiped them twice and tossed the towel aside, then sat down at the table and prepared to eat the noodles.

The room was extremely quiet, and Song Yu saw him eating noodles quickly. Speechless, he asked, "Did you work overtime?"

Tang Xu had returned to his usual casual appearance at this time, and nodded.

Song Yu had nothing to say at this point. Remembering that he was going to the old mansion, he waited for him to finish eating noodles before he spoke: "I won't be back next week, will you be free tomorrow? ”

Tang Xu's hand on the chopsticks paused slightly, and then leaned lazily on the chair mountain, and said lightly: "I don't have to go over in the future." ”

Song Yu was stunned and couldn't help but look at him.

The corners of Tang Xu's mouth hooked, took out a cigarette from the cigarette case on the side, lit it, and said, "I was expelled, the old man said, I will not be my son in the future." So I don't have to go back in the future. ”

He obviously didn't intend to say more, so he stood up and went straight to the study.

Song Yu didn't expect these things to happen this week when she was away, and she didn't move for a while.

No wonder when Tang Xu entered the door just now, she faintly felt that he was different from usual, it turned out that he had quarreled with the old mansion. I just don't know why I quarreled.

She quickly came back to her senses, and when she looked again, Tang Xu had already entered the study. I wanted to ask, but now I have to give up. After hesitating for a moment, she went back to her room and took out her mobile phone to call Wen Yi.

At this time, although it was already late, Wen Yi still picked up the phone after a while.

Song Yu didn't make a detour, and asked, "Sister-in-law, I haven't been here recently." Tang continued, is he and ...... Dad had a fight?"

Wen Yi on the other end of the phone sighed and said, "Yes." But I wasn't there at the time. I heard your eldest brother say that he and Dad quarreled because of a disagreement, and Dad lost his temper and told him not to go home in the future. Dad has always been strict with him, but there is no overnight feud between father and son, Dad's anger will disappear in a few days, don't worry. ”

Song Yu nodded, remembering that she couldn't see it. After hesitating for a moment, he asked, "Sister-in-law, do you know why they quarreled?"

Wen Yi said that he didn't know, slowed down a little, and said: "I haven't asked your eldest brother a lot recently, and I'll call you when he comes back later." Don't think about it. ”

Song Yu responded with a hello. Wen Yi was probably busy, didn't say anything, and quickly hung up the phone.

Not knowing what to do, she stayed in the room for a while and walked out. I wanted to knock on the door of the study, but I still didn't knock at the door. Went to the living room and sat down.

Tang Xu stayed in the study until more than twelve o'clock before he came out, so Song was worried about him, but he looked like he was fine, saw her sitting, raised his eyebrows, and asked, "Don't sleep?"

Song Yu said no and stood up. She wanted to ask if he was okay, but she couldn't say anything he could say like this. I had to swallow it back.

After Tang Xu asked her, he didn't pay attention to her anymore and went back to the room to rest. Until the next day, before he went out, Song Yu didn't have a chance to say a word to him.

But at ten o'clock, Wen Yi called and asked her if she had time to let her go to her house.

She should have asked Tang Yao.

Song Yu naturally had time and took a taxi over.

Wen Yi had just finished her work when she passed, and after she sat down, she poured her tea and served her snacks. After sitting down, he asked, "Is Ah Xu okay?"

Song Yu smiled bitterly and said, "I don't know. Even if it's bad, he won't tell me. ”

Wen Yi didn't speak for a while, was silent for a while, and said, "I asked your eldest brother, he quarreled with his father this time because of your second brother." You should have seen the news about his participation in the election, right? Ah Xu has always been at odds with him, this time...... He seems to be secretly supporting his opponent. I don't know how my dad found out about this, so I made a fuss. Dad also beat him. Do you see his injuries? It seems to be quite serious. ”

Song Yu's heart was shocked, Tang Xu was like that last night, and he couldn't see that he was injured at all. But he has always been able to bear it, as long as he doesn't say it, I'm afraid no one can see it.

Song Yu shook his head silently after a while, and asked in a low voice, "Sister-in-law, do you know where he was injured?"
