54. The ghost does not go away
Only the people in the van that collided with Nanxi couldn't escape because they were injured, and someone was guarding the driver's side.
The ambulance took the two injured to the hospital, and the police left behind the van driver's companion and cordoned off the scene of the crash to begin the investigation
At noon that day, Nanxi woke up in a hospital room. She opened her eyes, felt a tightness and pain in her head, reached out and touched it, and the layers of gauze were wrapped. She remembered that she was driving to work in the morning, and as soon as she left the house, she crashed into a van.
She remembered that before she passed out, a question popped up in her mind: how could there be a van suddenly across the road?
Her head hurt, and she rolled her eyes, not noticing anyone next to the bed.
She raised her hand and patted the edge of the bed and asked, "Is there anyone?" โ
As soon as she said three words, she felt a churn in her stomach and almost vomited, and she quickly shut up and closed her eyes at the same time.
There were two men arguing at the door, one was Lu Zaiyuan and the other was Deng Jiaxiang, and the two accused each other.
Deng Jiaxiang said: "You obviously knew that something like that happened, but you still went to work by yourself and left her to go out alone?" Why are you so stupid? โ
Lu Zaiyuan counterattacked: "It's not all because of you? You're the one who got her in such a big trouble! What face do you have to accuse me? โ
Deng Jiaxiang argued: "The road is far away! You don't want to spew blood! I'm someone who would rather be hurt myself than hurt Nanxi! When something like this happens, I'm a victim too! โ
Lu Zaiyuan immediately despised him: "Would you rather be hurt yourself than hurt Nanxi?" Deng Jiaxiang! Can you say that? You're really brazen! โ
The two men were arguing back and forth, and they didn't know each other. Sister Fen, who was standing on the side, persuaded this and that, like a busy firefighter, trying in vain to extinguish a skyrocketing fire.
At this time, the nurse came to the door of the ward to observe whether Nanxi had woken up. Seeing that Nanxi was frowning and enduring his nausea, he immediately yelled at the two men: "What is the noise?" The patients are awake! Quarrel and quarrel! Don't interfere with the patient's rest! โ
When the three people at the door heard the nurse say this, they immediately turned around and rushed into the ward. As a result, the movements were too uniform, and they were all crowded at the door of the ward.
Lu Zaiyuan stretched out his hand to push away the two people who were squeezing him, rushed into the ward first, ran to the side of the bed, and lowered his head to look at Nanxi: "Xiaoxi!" Are you awake? Where do you hurt? โ
Deng Jiaxiang rushed to the other side and called her too: "Xiaoxi! You've finally woken up, and you're scared to death! โ
The voices of the two people were so loud, one left and one right bombarded Nanxi's nerves. Venus appeared in front of me, and my head hurt even more.
The nurse walked over and glared at them: "Quietly, she is injured on the head, the injury is not clear, are you trying to stun her?" โ
The two men immediately fell silent, and neither of them spoke.
Nanxi eased up for a while, her head didn't hurt so much, and she didn't feel so nauseous anymore, she opened her eyes, looked at the road first, and asked him, "I crashed a van across the road, what happened?" โ
"The people who are besieging you are paparazzi who want to stop your car in a van and then interview and film you. The driver of the van was questioned by the police just now, and he said that he saw your car drive out of the house, so he put the van across the road, which was quite far away, and he thought that you must have had time to step on the brakes, but he didn't expect you to hit it. Lu Zaiyuan sat on the chair next to the hospital bed and told her the advance of this morning's car accident.
After hearing this, Nanxi rolled his eyes and glared at Deng Jiaxiang.
Originally, she was not in a good state this morning, but when she just drove out of the house, Deng Jiaxiang called in. She fumbled to find a Bluetooth headset, but she didn't see a van in front of her, and by the time she looked up and found it, it was too late.
Deng Jiaxiang also knew that it was his phone call that caused her to crash the car.
This morning, before he got up, a friend of his called and told him that photos of him and Nanxi were circulating everywhere on Weibo.
He turned on the computer and looked at it, and he was immediately dumbfounded.
Although the account called "Xin Ping 1958" that originally sent the photo has been emptied, the screenshots of the photos of him and Nanxi have been forwarded countless times by netizens who are good things and spread all over the Internet.
Such a big thing will inevitably be reported to Pei Tianming, and the other photos are easy to explain, the candid photo of kneeling outside the car door on the bank of the river can't be explained clearly. When the time comes, how will Pei Tianming and Zhao Xinyao treat him? I'm afraid that leaving the Pei family is the lightest punishment, if Old Man Zhao knows about it, it is inevitable to be beaten.
Although Old Man Zhao has been away from the rivers and lakes for many years, his old man's methods are still the same as those who mixed the underworld back then, and the most powerful people around him were also the ones who followed him in the underworld back then.
Before Deng Jiaxiang married Pei Jiaoqian, Old Man Zhao warned him: "Since Jiaoqian likes it, I won't stop you from getting married." But you have to know in your heart whose daughter you are marrying. The day you are unfaithful to Jiaoqian is your end. My granddaughter must not be harmed, you know? โ
Deng Jiaxiang still thought at that time: loyalty? What's so hard about that? I'm not the kind of person who is keen on looking for flowers and asking willows, as long as I can enter the high-level of Tianming Logistics, I can endure Pei Jiaoqian every day.
I didn't expect the plan to be perfect, but the world was complicated.
In less than half a year, he broke his promise to Old Man Zhao. If these photos were seen by Old Man Zhao, his knees would have to be broken.
He was terrified and didn't know what to do. So he called Nanxi and wanted to ask her if she had any good ideas.
As soon as the phone was connected, he heard Nanxi scream: "Ah! โ
Then there was a loud "bang", followed by a noisy voice, and someone shouted that there was a car accident.
He was frightened and immediately called Sister Fen and asked her to help determine which hospital Nanxi was into, and then he drove straight to the hospital.
When he arrived at the hospital, Lu Zaiyuan and Sister Fen had already arrived. Lu Zaiyuan sat on the bench outside the door of the rescue room, his face covered with a layer of cold, and he hung his head silently.
Deng Jiaxiang was weak and didn't speak, just sat opposite him.
About half an hour later, the door of the emergency room opened, and the nurse pushed Nanxi out and sent her into the ward.
The doctor said that there was no major problem, the head was hit, in addition to the skin trauma, the concussion was also quite severe, and he needed to recuperate.
Nanxi was still unconscious, Sister Fen was with her in front of the bed, Deng Jiaxiang stood at the end of the bed, looking at Nanxi's slightly blue face, and her heart was full of self-blame. Lu Zaiyuan sat on a chair outside the ward, his head down and counting his fingers, the cold on his face was about to freeze.
Lu Zaiyuan did not come to condemn Deng Jiaxiang, which surprised Deng Jiaxiang. The moment Deng Jiaxiang saw him, he was mentally ready to be punched, but he didn't expect him to be silent, and he didn't even make a move.
Deng Jiaxiang was guarding Nanxi's bedside, very uneasy. He knew that it was not a way to hide out like this, and the Pei family might already know about it, and they were probably discussing how to clean him up now.
Sure enough, Nanxi was still in a coma, and Pei Jiaoqian called. Miss Pei's anger rushed to the sky: "Deng Jiaxiang! Get back to me! How dare you step on Miss Ben's face under your feet! You're too bold! Which rat hole are you hiding in? Hurry up and climb back for me! โ
Deng Jiaxiang was scolded by Pei Jiaoqian, and really wanted to reply to her: "You stinky โกโก still have face?" โ
But he didn't say it, the situation is stronger than people, if he scolds Pei Jiaoqian now, the consequences will be unimaginable.
Pei Jiaoqian didn't give him a chance to talk back at all, she scolded enough, and hung up the phone with a "snap".
Deng Jiaxiang stood in the corridor of the hospital, not to mention how irritable. As soon as he turned around and saw that Lu Zaiyuan was still sitting there like a stuffy gourd, he rushed over and pulled Lu Zaiyuan's shoulder: "You obviously knew that something so big had happened, and you let her drive out alone, did you have a broken head?" โ
Where is Lu Yuan, who will let him?
So the two men quarreled outside the ward, and Sister Fen hurriedly ran out to persuade her, even when Nanxi woke up, the three of them didn't know.
At this time, facing Nanxi, whose face was pale and weak with gauze wrapped around his head, both men felt very guilty.
Nanxi had only seen reports of celebrities being chased and intercepted by the paparazzi in entertainment newspapers and magazines before, and he never imagined that he would encounter such a thing one day. She glared at Deng Jiaxiang angrily: "At this time, you still dare to come to the hospital?" Don't you think it's big enough? โ
Deng Jiaxiang pursed his lips and didn't speak.
He can't sue Nanxi, he's scared right now and doesn't know where he can go. Although it was inappropriate to stay with her at such a time, he still felt that he was at ease with her.
Seeing that he was silent, Nanxi became even more anxious. She said, "Go home quickly!" Go back and get things in order. The explanation should be explained, and the mistake should be admitted. With Pei Tianming's social status, he will definitely be able to communicate with the website and control the circulation of those photos. โ
The explanation of the explanation! Admit your mistakes! Easier said than done! If he goes back now, he will have to peel off his skin if he doesn't die!
He was very resistant to returning to Pei's house, but he knew that this catastrophe could not be avoided.
As he hesitated, his phone rang again. This time it was Pei Tianming who called, and his voice was very stern: "Jiaxiang! The photo of you and Nanxi has gone viral on the Internet, and I'm sure you won't be unaware. If you don't solve the problem now, the old man will start to come in a while, don't blame me for not helping you. โ
After hanging up the phone, Deng Jiaxiang gritted his teeth and looked at Nanxi: "You're right, disasters fall from the sky, and you can't avoid them." I'll go back now and see what they can do to me. โ
With that, he turned his head and walked out of the ward.
The moment he went out, Nanxi also told him: "Beware of those paparazzi, they photographed you walking out of the hospital, and I don't know what you will say!" โ
With a worried heart, Deng Jiaxiang left the hospital and drove back to Pei's house.
At this time, the atmosphere of the Pei family was also very solemn.
Originally, it wasn't a big deal for their family.
Old Man Zhao was in the underworld back then, and the lives of his two sons were taken in, what wind and waves have not been experienced?
Pei Tianming started as an assistant to the old man, and has become a leader in the national logistics industry and a bigwig in the business world today. What's more, over the years, his daughter has not been angry, and how many bad things have happened outside, he has long been used to cleaning up the mess for his daughter.
But today, the two Weng and son-in-law have fallen into an embarrassing and deadlocked situation because of the photos of Deng Jiaxiang and his ex-girlfriend that broke out on the Internet.
What made these two uneasy was not those photos, but the Weibo account that spread the photos, which was actually named "Xin Ping 1958"!
Pei Tianming got up early in the morning and was reading the newspaper and waiting for breakfast, when he received a call from Wu Kexin. He glanced at the number and picked it up. Wu Kexin reminded him on the phone: "Mr. Pei, turn on the computer and take a look, the photos of my uncle and his ex-girlfriend are going viral on the Internet." After you read it, give me an indication of what to do with it. โ
Pei Tianming just frowned at that time, and secretly scolded: "These two unconscious little rabbit cubs!" If they don't trouble me for a day, they won't be able to live in peace! โ
He first called Deng Jiaxiang, then he got up, went into the study, and turned on the computer.
He first saw those photos, and then noticed the Weibo account that spread the photos: Xin Ping 1958!
It's like seeing a ghost! He immediately felt a tightness in his chest, and he almost had a heart attack!
He didn't care about looking at those photos at all, he stared at the words "Xin Ping 1958", and looked at it in a daze for a long time, and too many memories suddenly appeared in his mind, completely blocking his thoughts.
After staying for a while, he exhaled, stabilized his feelings, and made a phone call: "Brother Liang, I'm sorry to bother you so early, there is an account of Xin Ping 1958 on the Weibo of your website, can you please help me check this person's registration information." โ
The person he called was the boss of the site. He also has some friendship with this boss, and this Mr. Liang always persuaded him to open Weibo on his own website before, but Pei Tianming was not interested in these things at all, so he didn't get it.
Mr. Liang immediately agreed to his request, and soon, the email came.
This person named Xin Ping 1958, the registration data shows that he is in Taiwan, and the IP address used is also in Taiwan, the name filled in the information is Xin Ping, and he left a phone number, Pei Tianming tried to dial it, and turned it off!
How did Xin Ping go to Taiwan? If she really went to Taiwan, then it's no wonder that she can't be found all these years.
But is this Xin Ping or not? If not, it must have been done by someone with ulterior motives.
He was thinking about it when he heard Zhao Xinyao's voice outside the door: "Tianming, Dad told you to go upstairs, he has something to look for you." โ
Pei Tianming's heart moved, stood up, walked out of the study, and walked upstairs to Zhao Liangmao's bedroom.
At this time, Pei Jiaoqian was in Zhao Liangmao's room, and as long as this girl was in trouble, she was expected to be scolded by her father, and she would hide from her grandfather. However, this time, she thought that she was also wronged, so she wanted her grandfather to avenge her.
As soon as Zhao Liangmao heard this, he immediately exploded.
Although the old man is old, his personality is still so impatient, and he is on fire. Because Deng Jiaxiang was still on the way home, he had nowhere to be angry, so he could only call his son-in-law up and teach him a few words to get angry.
As soon as Pei Tianming entered the house, he first glared at Pei Jiaoqian.
Pei Jiaoqian immediately hid behind Zhao Liangmao, wiping her eyes and tears and pretending to be pitiful.
Zhao Liangmao patted the armrest of the sofa chair and asked Pei Tianming: "Tianming! How did you do that? That Deng Jiaxiang has ill intentions, you didn't even notice it? Are you old and have a bad brain? โ
Pei Tianming stood in front of the old man, bowed his head, but did not admit his mistake as humbly as usual: "Dad, it's my fault that I didn't educate my children well." It's true that I'm getting older, and I always remember things from the past. I remembered something this morning and wanted to ask my father. โ
Zhao Liangmao didn't know what he was talking about, so he scolded: "There are priorities! Why don't you hurry up and call Deng Jiaxiang's little bastard back! See if I don't discount his legs! โ
"Dad only listens to Jiaoqian, and doesn't know the truth of this matter, maybe you listen to me, it will make your old man suddenly brighter." Although Pei Tianming's voice was low, his attitude was not very good.
Zhao Liangmao realized that there was something here, squinted his eyes and looked at him for two seconds, and shouted angrily: "Speak!" Don't you have the truth to tell? What else is selling? I have to ask three times and nine times! โ
Pei Tianming waved his hand at Pei Jiaoqian: "Jiaoqian, you go out for a while, I have something to say to my grandfather." โ
Although Pei Jiaoqian had her grandfather's support, she didn't dare to disobey her father's order, so she had to go out obediently.
There were only two Weng sons-in-law left in the house, Pei Tianming looked at his father-in-law and said: "Dad, the account that spread the photos of Jiaxiang and his ex-girlfriend on Weibo is called Xin Ping 1958"
When Zhao Liangmao heard this name, his eyebrows jumped twice, he was stunned for a few seconds, and said: "I don't know what network or Weibo, since it is the ghost of Xin Ping, it is your debt!" What do you mean by looking at me like that? Still want to put the blame on me? โ
Pei Tianming looked at it carefully, and did not miss this subtle change in expression. He knows his father-in-law very well, although he has a big temper, he can be happy and angry at critical moments, and the things that can make him raise his eyebrows involuntarily have touched his nerves.
Pei Tianming said: "Dad, I won't tell you, I sent someone to find Xin Ping a few years ago, but I couldn't find her everywhere, she seemed to have disappeared from this world, not to mention the shadow of a person, there was not even a trace of it." โ
Zhao Liangmao's eyes immediately widened: "You actually went to find Xin Ping secretly?" Celestial Ringing! You've gone too far! Where did you put Xin Yao? โ
"I have been married to Xin Yao for many years, and I respect her very much. It's just that I'm getting older slowly, and when I think of some of the past, I can't help but feel emotional. I didn't want to know what to do, I just wanted to know how she was doing, but I couldn't find her, even her relatives didn't know where she was, and it was said that she was reported missing that year, but if she wasn't found, she would be considered dead."
Zhao Liangmao frowned and patted the armrest of the sofa chair angrily: "How generous I was back then, I gave her a lot of money!" Maybe she took the money and hid in a place that no one knew about, and went to enjoy the glory and wealth! Our family isn't sorry for her! What is dead and alive! What do you mean by that? โ
"Dad said she was going to be rich, but now she's coming out again, and she's showing up like this. Looking at those photos, I should have been following Jiaxiang for a long time, since she can appear next to Jiaxiang, how do I know that she won't appear by my side? Or even by your side? Her purpose is obviously not Jiaxiang, nor Jiaoqian, but me! Even you, Dad! Pei Tianming was a little excited.
Zhao Liangmao was like a cat with its tail stepped on, waving his arms and yelling, "Damn! The ghost is not gone! Since she is not good, you will dig her out! See what the hell she's going to do? โ
"The Ghost Lingers?" Zhao Liangmao grabbed these four words at once.
