Volume 1 The Lonely Shadow of the Cold River Chapter 70 Flying in the Snow
When Lu Li rushed back to the office headquarters of Yingdali, it was already more than 10 o'clock in the evening, and he did not call Wu Ying during this period, because he did not dare to do so, and used so many manpower and material resources, but the bamboo basket was empty, and he was worried that Wu Ying would be punished.
The office was in shambles, several bodies had been disposed of, and Wu Ying had been taken to the hospital. Lu Li realized what was wrong, and after asking the panicked little secretary, Lu Li rushed to the hospital as soon as possible.
Wu Ying was lying in the ICU intensive care ward of the hospital, he had not woken up from a coma, Lisa's five fingers were inserted into the musculature of Wu Ying's back, if it wasn't for Lisa's mercy, maybe Wu Ying had broken his spine at this time and completely became paralyzed. There is no doubt that Wu Ying's left eye can no longer be saved, and after learning about Wu Ying's injury, Lu Li feels that Ji Han may have returned.
Looking at Wu Ying, who was still unconscious, Lu Li's first thought was, escape, what other way can there be but to escape now? If Ji Han really tracked it down, the things he did would be even more full of sin than Wu Ying, and it was he who killed everyone in Meishan Tingxi Villa with his own hands. Lu Li was in a painful mental struggle, and he thought that he needed to make a decision, because judging from the wounds described by the doctor, it was simply not a human thing, it was a demon.
Gong Xue didn't sleep all night, she thought a lot, she was in a daze at the night outside the window all night, for a while she was worried about whether Ji Han had suffered something terrible, and for a while she was afraid that Ji Han was deliberately avoiding herself, this night was like a long time for Gong Xue. When I knew that it was daylight, I received a call from Thailand.
"Gongxue, I'm Ji Han, I'm sorry I didn't call you last night......" Ji Han said on the other end of the phone.
Wow, Gong Xue cried, she sobbed on the phone: "What's wrong with you? What about your mobile phone, why are you only contacting me now, do you know that I'm about to die of worry?"
Ji Han was silent for a while, and then said, "There was a murder in the hotel where we stayed yesterday, so we were temporarily detained at the police station. All communication equipment was withheld as evidence, so I haven't been able to contact you yesterday. ”
"I don't care, are you still in Chiang Mai? I'm going to fly over to you right now. Gongxue was about to get out of bed, she didn't even take off her windbreaker, and she didn't sleep for a second last night.
"I may not be able to return to China until later, and I don't know exactly when it will be, but Mr. Jiang has already found a lawyer, and I don't think it will be too long. But I guess I might not be able to make it to the wedding. There are also ....... "Ji Han actually wanted to talk to Gongxue about marriage, during this time in Chiang Mai, he listened to Mr. Jiang talk about a lot of emotional things, which were completely different from what Song Daming said, he was moved by the feelings of Mr. Jiang and Mrs. Jiang, and at the same time he really realized that the person he really loved in his heart was not Gongxue, but Xiao Li.
Gongxue didn't let Ji Han finish her words, she just told Ji Han: "My dear, don't worry, the wedding can be postponed, I will wait for you to come back, I don't want anything, as long as you return safely." ”
Ji Han was silent for a while, and thought silently in his heart: "Okay, this kind of thing will be better when we meet." So he didn't continue the topic, and after chatting about some other unrelated trivial matters, Gongxue hung up the phone with satisfaction, and then fell asleep happily.
In the dream, Gongxue dreamed that she went to Istanbul, Turkey, on the big bazaar full of people, Gongxue held a bearded man, Gongxue was happy like a bird, and looked at those exquisite silverwares for a while, and then draped Shari on her shoulders, and the person next to her kept saying playful things that made her laugh back and forth, in the dream she felt like Sanmao, and the person next to her looked exactly like Jose. Gongxue asked him: "How could it be you, aren't you Ji Han?"
The bearded man in the dream asked, "What do you want? Didn't you come here because you like art and distant places?"
Gong Xue blinked her eyes and thought about it and replied, "But I studied business management, how can I like those empty arts?"
The bearded man smiled, he stretched out his hand into the air and grabbed it, and Ji Han appeared in front of him.
Gongxue didn't seem very happy in her sleep, although she hadn't seen Ji Han for a long time. The two of them walked side by side to the flower-filled streets of Istanbul, and Ji Han was still so silent, as if he had a lot on his mind. She didn't speak, just like that, the two of them kept walking, the streets on both sides became more and more blurred, more and more blurred, and by the time she reacted, Ji Han had already disappeared into the fog on both sides.
Gongxue woke up from her dream, and she struggled to recall and figure out the ....... of her dream.
Xiao Li couldn't remember that this was the first few days since she came to Hanjiang City, and Xiao Li was thinking about Ji Han desperately in a dilapidated small hotel. The air conditioner in the small hotel seemed to be just a decoration, and it was of little use except for the rumbling noise when turned on to prevent Xiao Li from feeling lonely. It's dawn again, Xiao Li hasn't eaten for two days, it's not that she has no money to eat, but she has no appetite at all, she cried for a while, laughed for a while, muttered Ji Han's name for a while, and was desperately silent for a while, there was no dance in her dream, she only had Ji Han's vague, somewhat wooden smiling face that remained in her memory.
The hostess of the hotel usually smoked a cigarette and said to the owner who had just come to the hotel for a shift change: "Did the woman from 301 not come out for a day yesterday?"
After the boss struggled to put a large bag of mineral water in the storage room, he turned back to the bar, thought for a moment and replied:
"That woman is a little weird, when I went to deliver toilet paper to 306 yesterday, I heard her crying in the room. ”
The proprietress took two puffs of her cigarette, then spit out a smoke ring, and after watching the smoke ring slowly dissipate in the air, she said to the boss:
"You wretched, why didn't you say it earlier yesterday, eighty percent of you want to commit suicide, if you die in our hotel, how bad it will be. In this world, there are all these blind lords, if you want to die, you can't throw yourself into the river, you have to run to our hotel, and we are not a hospice here!"
The boss also seemed to think of something, he leaned in front of the proprietress and said in a matter-of-fact manner: "I heard that there are many ways to commit suicide, some take sleeping pills, some hang themselves, and some burn charcoal to commit suicide." ”
"Charcoal burner? Mom, go and see if it's broken, she said last night that the air conditioner wasn't warm, and she really had to ask for a stove and some carbon. With that, the two of them rushed up to the third floor.
After knocking on the door twice and no one answered, the proprietress decisively took out the key and opened the door. Her heart was cold, how could she let herself encounter such a bad thing! Xiao Li and Yi were lying on the bed, her face pale, as if she was dead.
"It's over, it's over!" the boss collapsed to the ground.
The proprietress stepped forward and kicked the boss in the back and scolded angrily: "Waste, call the police immediately." While saying that, the proprietress walked up to Xiao Li and tried to breathe, as if there was still some faint breath, so the proprietress hurriedly dialed 120.
After a while, the police arrived at the scene, and 120 also arrived at the scene, at this time Xiao Li woke up, she did not burn charcoal to commit suicide, nor did she take sleeping pills, she just did not eat for several days, she was tired and hungry and fainted.
Watching the boss and the old lady make a fuss, the police who arrived couldn't cry or laugh. Because the boss was incoherent when he called the police and said that the suicide was murder, Officer Zhou soon arrived at the scene.
Although nothing happened, Officer Zhou was still suspicious of Xiao Li. After verifying Xiao Li's identity, Officer Zhou asked:
"Did you go to Hanjiang City to visit relatives and friends or do you have something else?"
The weak Xiao Li made a strong effort to highlight a few words: "Find someone, find someone named Ji Han." ”
Officer Zhou was taken aback and hurriedly asked, "Is it a young man in his 20s, also from Pitou City?" Officer Zhou looked at Xiao Li's ID card again, could it be that this Xiao Li still has some relationship with Ji Han?
Xiao Li nodded, and continued to say in a weak voice: "Yes, he is my man, he is lost, some people say that when he arrives in Hanjiang City, I want to try my luck." ”
"Your man?" Originally, Officer Zhou wanted to ask what the relationship between this Xiao Li and Ji Han was, but Xiao Li answered directly.
Xiao Li nodded and remained silent.
Officer Zhou thought to himself, this is interesting. He looked this strange woman up and down, unkempt, wearing a somewhat thin down jacket, the clothes should have not been washed for a long time, there were still some mud and oil stains on the line, and another scar on her pale face, if it were not for this scar, this woman would be quite beautiful.
"You man, interesting. Do you know that this Ji Han is about to get married? And the object of marriage is the boss of Hengtai Real Estate in Hanjiang City, Gongxue. Officer Zhou looked at Xiao Li as he spoke, what a poor woman, what is the origin of this Ji Han, and he doesn't look like a wanderer who abandoned his wife and children.
"Getting married?" Xiao Li muttered. She wasn't too surprised, in fact, she had already thought of this result in her heart, Ji Han was the whole of life for her, but what about Ji Han, he was just a stupid man. She knew in her heart that if Ji Han's illness was cured, then she would definitely not remember herself. She didn't know what happened to Ji Han, but she thought that Ji Han must have recovered, so she would find a boss to be her daughter-in-law, anyway, she was doing well now.
"Is he doing well?" Xiao Li asked suddenly.
"It should be, there is so much money, and the eldest lady named Gongxue is so beautiful. Officer Zhou was a little unbearable, but he still told Xiao Li the actual situation.
Xiao Li suddenly laughed, very happily, as if this was the best ending she could hear. Her feelings for Ji Han are not like lovers at this time, but more like family, she has also imagined that Ji Han has encountered accidents, and she has also imagined Ji Han's ordinary life with herself, and she also thought that Ji Han will one day find a very ideal woman and live happily for the rest of her life. Her inferiority complex is constantly troubled in her heart, and she feels that she is not worthy of Ji Han day by day, especially after she is disfigured.
Perhaps, this is the best ending. Xiao Li muttered.
"Ms. Xiao Li, is there anything else I can help you with?" Officer Zhou looked at the strange woman in front of him with some unbearability. He thought that when Xiao Li heard the news, she must have been mentally hit again.
"No, thank you, comrade policeman. The smile on Xiao Li's face made Officer Zhou uneasy.
"If you need me to help you contact Ji Han, I can help you contact you now. Officer Zhou continued to ask with concern.
"No need, I'll leave Hanjiang City today to bother you. But what if I could take a look at what that one was called?"
"Gong Xue. ”
"Oh, Gongxue, I want to see her, and I'm relieved. ”
Officer Zhou wrote down the address on a sticky note at the hotel and handed it to Xiao Li. Xiao Li smiled and thanked her.
Approaching noon, there were more people in front of the office building of Hengtai Real Estate, people who got off work and people who did things came out of the building, everyone was full of happy smiles, Xiao Li stood in the small square at the door of the office building, looking at the happy smiling faces of people coming and going, and couldn't help laughing happily. The security guard looked coldly at the somewhat ragged Xiao Li, always vigilant for her to walk into the office building.
At one o'clock in the afternoon, the sky began to fall with snowflakes again.
"What a romantic winter!" Gong Xue, who returned to the office building after eating, thought. She got out of the car from a Mercedes-Benz S60, dressed in a lake blue suit, in the gentle falling snowflakes, like Queen Elsa in Frozen, her magical smile filled the air with warmth and sunshine, and those snowflakes that fell became shiny. Everyone looked at Gongxue, maybe she was really the queen who could be in charge of the snow, otherwise how could she be called Gongxue?
When Xiao Li saw Gongxue, her heart was also full of sunshine and strength. "What a beautiful woman!" Xiao Li exclaimed.
The security guard quickly ran down the steps, helped Gongxue close the car door, and said respectfully, "Mr. Gong." Slippery on the snow, you slow down. As he spoke, he propped up an umbrella above Gongxue's head.
"Gongxue?" Xiao Li hurriedly ran forward, and the security guard spotted Xiao Li for the first time, and he turned around to stop Xiao Li.
Xiao Li suddenly stood still, looked at Gongxue with intent, and said, "Are you the president of Gongxue?"
Gongxue stopped the security guard, and also stood still and replied, "Yes, is there anything wrong?"
Xiao Li smiled stupidly, she smiled so happily, so relaxed, so comfortable.
"You're so beautiful. Xiao Li said from the bottom of her heart.
"Thank you. After saying that, Gongxue turned around and walked into the office building.
Xiao Li was stunned by the flower bed in the small square, and not far away was the cold eyes of the security guard. Suddenly, Xiao Li stood up, and she stretched out in the snowflakes, her eyes slightly closed, as if she was brewing some emotion.
"Tick, tick, tick, tick, tick......."
The snow was bigger, and the snowflakes that fell from the sky were like flying petals, Xiao Li beat in her heart, and her mouth was beating with a tune that no one knew, like a flying elf, stretching her whole body, dancing the most beautiful dance in her life. At this moment, she is like the greatest dancer on the stage, sometimes flying up and down like the rolling waves of a river, sometimes like a fallen leaf swirling in the wind, sometimes like a newborn sprout slowly opening, her eyes closed, completely ignoring the eyes of the world. She is chic, graceful, and stretched. The whole world was filled with her passion.
Snowflakes fell from the sky, gently covering the tips of the grass in the flower bed, and in an instant, white covered everything here, and the thin layer of snow was dotted with a happy woman.
Gongxue looked at the square from upstairs, "What a strange woman!" she thought.
