Chapter 149: The Storm is Coming

In the office of the president of Zhongkai Group, Ji Xiuyu sat in the office expressionlessly, holding the information in his hand, looking at the content on it, only to see his eyes narrowed slightly. Opposite him, Kang Kang stood there, speaking methodically.

"President, according to the latest clues we got, Xia Zhengguo did buy ** back then, and through the video surveillance analysis of that year, it is very likely that ** was handed over to Mrs. Ji in the end. If this is the case, there is reason to believe that when the fire broke out, Mrs. did not have consciousness and struggled to resist a series of self-rescue behaviors. ”

At these ages, Ji Xiuyu has always suspected that Ji's mother's death was related to Mrs. Ji. However, he investigated carefully, but there was never any basis to support this speculation, and now the appearance of Xia Zhengguo gave him a good entry point.

With his hands crossed in front of him, Ji Xiuyu said in a deep voice: "The family of that servant, have you already received their confessions?"

Nodding his head and looking, Kang Kang continued: "Yes, according to our further clues, those people confessed to the person who gave them a huge amount of money back then. And that person is a relative of Xia Zhengguo. According to further analysis, the money was handed over to Xia Zhengguo by Mrs. Ji. ”

Listening to his words, Ji Xiuyu's expression was solemn, and from the clues he had so far, he could see that Ji's mother's death was inseparable from Mrs. Ji and Xia Zhengguo.

Raising his head, Ji Xiuyu said expressionlessly: "You continue to investigate, I want to find the most direct evidence." Only in this way will no other person be given any respite. ”

Knowing what he meant, Kang Kang nodded and said respectfully: "Yes, president, I'll continue to deal with it." With Xia Zhengguo's breakthrough point, I believe that he will soon be able to find out and avenge his wife. ”

Ji Xiuyu didn't speak, just quietly looked in a certain direction. I saw his brows furrow slightly, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Knowing that he had scruples, Kang Kang didn't speak, and quietly retreated, no longer bothering him.

Standing in front of the window, looking at the scenery outside the window, thinking of Xia Zhengguo's special identity, Ji Xiuyu's mood seemed heavy. If it is really found out that he is an accomplice to the death of his mother, how should his relationship with Xia Xizhi continue?

The mobile phone vibrate, Ji Xiuyu picked it up, and saw the words "beautiful wife" on the display screen, and couldn't help but smile. This note was saved by Xia Xizhi with his mobile phone. Take back your mind, pick it up and put it in your ear to answer.

As soon as he was connected, a crisp voice came from the phone: "Is Xiu Yu busy?"

Listening to her voice and imagining her expression at this moment, Ji Xiuyu said in a low voice: "No." ”

On the phone, Xia Xizhi said with a smile: "Mr. Ji Xiuyu, do you have an appointment at noon? If you don't have an appointment, can we go on a date together?" I just learned a good place and want to take you to see it. ”

I wanted to agree, but the words came to my lips but couldn't help but get stuck. Thinking that she was Xia Zhengguo's daughter, Ji Xiuyu's heart sank a little. After being silent for a long time, Ji Xiuyu spoke: "I have something to do at noon, next time." ”

Listening to his words, Xia Xizhi was a little disappointed, but he still smiled and nodded: "Well, okay, then next time, work is important, remember to eat well at noon." ”

Ji Xiuyu snorted, then casually found an excuse and ended the call. At this moment, Ji Xiuyu was suddenly worried, he was worried that when the relationship between two people became deep, but he knew the cruel truth, where should the two of them go, it is easy to fall in love with someone, but it takes a long time to forget. Even, it is impossible to forget.

Rubbing his temples with a headache, Ji Xiuyu's heart looked heavy. He had never been so irritated for a person.

On the other end of the phone, Xia Xizhi ended the call, put the phone on the table, supported his cheeks with both hands, and said with some frustration: "It's a pity, I wanted to take Xiu Yu to see it together, but he couldn't help it." ”

Soon adjusted his mood, Xia Xizhi continued the work in hand.

At night, in the Ji family's villa. Xia Xizhi held the pen and looked at the painting quietly, outlining Ji Xiuyu's appearance one stroke at a time.

In the past, she loved to paint, but for various reasons she was never able to do what she loved to do, but now, she wants to pick up the brush again. Even just recording his face with a pen is a happy thing for her.

"I don't know if Xiu Yu is busy. Xia Xizhi said to himself.

Feeling a little missing, Xia Xizhi stood up and walked out of his study. Back in the bedroom, he was nowhere to be seen, without any pause, Xia Xizhi turned around and walked towards Ji Xiuyu's study.

Gently pushing open the door, Xia Xizhi poked his head into take a look, and saw Ji Xiuyu standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, his eyes staring at the dark world, thoughtful, and the figure of the whole person was shrouded. In the dark, it gives people a feeling of loneliness.

Seeing this, Xia Xi wrinkled in confusion. Walking in gently, Xia Xizhi came behind Ji Xiuyu, and when her hand wrapped around his waist, Xia Xizhi obviously felt that Ji Xiuyu's body stiffened.

Raising his head, Xia Xizhi said softly: "Xiuyu, what are you doing standing here?"

The hand fell on the back of her hand, and Ji Xiuyu replied softly: "It's okay to think about something." ”

Let go of him, Xia Xizhi came to him and looked at him. Looking at his eyes, Xia Xizhi felt that he seemed to see a touch of sorrow in his eyes, and his eyebrows were full of indescribable emotion.

Holding his hand, Xia asked puzzledly, "Did you encounter something difficult?" You can tell me, although I may not be able to help you share your worries, but at least I can be a listener." ”

Raising his hand, it landed on her cheek, gently rubbing her skin, Ji Xiuyu didn't speak, just stared into her eyes.

After a long time, Ji Xiuyu said in a hoarse voice: "It's okay." ”

I don't know why, subconsciously, Ji Xiuyu didn't want her to know about it. Knowing about this is just to calm down and troubled one more person.

The arm slowly increased with force, Ji Xiuyu slowly pulled her into his arms, one hand fell on her back, and the other hand landed on the back of her head. Bowing his head, Ji Xiuyu was silent.

Buried in his arms, Xia Xizhi said softly: "Xiuyu?"

The tip of his nose was against her hair, smelling the fragrance of her hair, Ji Xiuyu pleaded, pleading, don't speak, I just want to hug you.

Hearing the pleading in his voice, Xia Xizhi didn't speak, just stayed quietly in his arms. She felt that Ji Xiuyu had something on her mind today. But if he didn't say, she wouldn't have asked. Respect is one of the ways she handles her marital relationship.
