Chapter Forty-Six: The Storm is Coming
After two more days like this, there is still no news of Li Huan up and down the company.
Tao Tao thought that such a big living person could not evaporate from the world.
She was inexplicably a little flustered.
But Jiang Jinchen has been by his side these days, so he has made Tao Tao a little more settled.
Tomorrow is the weekend, and Jiang Jinchen gives her two days off every weekend to let her rest.
In fact, Tao Tao refused at first, because she didn't want to do anything special, but she couldn't resist Jiang Jinchen.
"You have a good rest these days, and it's best not to go out recently."
At this time, Tao Tao sat in Jiang Jinchen's car, listening to his instructions to himself.
I don't know why, Jiang Jinchen has driven to school every morning to pick him up from work these days, and he personally sent himself back after work every day.
Tao Tao felt more and more strange, especially what Jiang Jinchen said to her at this moment.
"What's wrong?"
Tao Tao saw through the afterglow that it was suddenly cloudy outside, and there was a feeling that the wind and rain were coming.
"It's okay, I'm just worried you've been too tired lately."
Although Jiang Jinchen said this, Tao Tao felt that his expression was strange.
"You ......"
Tao Tao felt that Jiang Jinchen still had something to hide from him.
"Okay, then I'll go, you be careful on the road."
Tao Tao looked at Jiang Jinchen and seemed to be a little tired, but in the end he didn't say what he wanted to say.
She took one last look at Jiang Jinchen, then turned around and got out of the car.
However, just as she was about to close the car door, she suddenly heard Jiang Jinchen say something in a very small voice.
"Be careful yourself."
Tao Tao paused when he heard this, but did not answer, turned around and walked into the school.
When Tao Tao walked around the corner, he deliberately glanced back at the school gate and found that Jiang Jinchen's car was still parked there.
She turned her head and sighed, then walked back to her bedroom.
What the hell is going on?
The uneasiness in Tao Tao's heart became more and more obvious.
As soon as she entered the door of her dormitory, she noticed a sudden strong wind outside.
Tao Tao was startled by the whirring of the wind, and she heard the sound of the branches of the trees being blown against the glass by the wind.
She quickly pushed the window and closed the curtains.
Tao Tao wanted to go to the cafeteria for a while to eat, but it seemed that he couldn't get out in this weather.
"Hey."
Tao Tao sighed, got up and took out a bag of bread from the cabinet, hugged it and nibbled on it.
At this moment, Tao Tao's mobile phone suddenly lit up.
Her phone was always silent when she went to work, and she picked it up and looked at it and found that there were two unread messages.
Who could it be?
Tao Tao clicked on it and looked at it, it turned out to be Xiao Qiong's.
The first message was at ten o'clock in the morning.
"What are you doing?"
The second message is just now.
"Let's go back to the dormitory."
Tao Tao frowned.
is an affirmative sentence.
She felt as if she was being watched by Xiao Qiong, why sometimes Xiao Qiong knew her every move?
Tao Tao didn't want to reply, but she suddenly remembered that she had something to ask him.
"Do you have time tomorrow?"
If she could, she wanted to go out tomorrow and have a good talk with Xiao Qiong.
She felt that Xiao Qiong should also know about Li Huan's disappearance this time.
The reply was swift.
"There's time."
Tao Tao thought for a while, and then sent the time and place to Xiao Qiong and told him to meet tomorrow.
Xiao Qiong did not reply in time this time.
Tao Tao thought that he might have seen it, but she just didn't want to reply, so she turned off her phone and continued to nibble on the bread in her hand.
However, as he gnawed, the phone on the table lit up again.
Tao Tao's eyes widened as he looked at the news, and the bread in his hand suddenly rolled to the ground.
"Eating less bread is not good for your health."
Tao Tao almost fainted.
She looked at the piece of bread on the ground with her breath and shook imperceptibly.
He...... How do you know you're eating bread?
Tao Tao looked at the closed curtains, and the hairs on her body stood up.
It's, it's weird.
Tao Tao stood up suddenly, tossed the bread into the trash, and then glanced at the dark purple curtain again.
This time she believed that the Xiao family was really more terrifying than she imagined.
Tao Tao jumped on the bed and wrapped the quilt tightly, looked at the black mobile phone screen, and remembered Jiang Jinchen's advice just now.
Why didn't he let himself out?
Tao Tao was very scared in his heart, he knew that Jiang Jinchen was right not to let him go out, and she herself had a terrible premonition.
But......
She's really, really trying to get to the bottom right now.
Tao Tao fell into an infinite entanglement.
The room was quiet, only Tao Tao's heart was pounding because of the fright just now.
"Dingding-ding-"
The cell phone on the table rang suddenly.
Tao Tao was frightened, and quickly climbed out of bed and picked it up.
Senior Sister Xiao Lan?
Tao Tao looked at the caller ID in a daze, thinking that he had read it wrong.
What is Senior Sister Xiao Lan going to do when she calls herself at this time?
Tao Tao thought for a while, but didn't come up with a reason, so she hesitated to pick it up.
"Hello? Senpai? ”
Tao Tao swallowed a mouthful of saliva and listened to Xiao Lan's voice with her breath.
"Little peach."
Tao Tao suddenly breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that Senior Sister Xiao Lan was still very energetic.
"What's the matter, senior sister, call me suddenly."
Tao Tao sat on the table, gently scratching the lines on the table with her fingernails.
"Actually...... It's nothing, I just want to ask how you're doing. ”
Senior Sister Xiao Lan's gentle voice came from the phone, but Tao Tao suddenly heard a little hesitation from her tone.
"I've been doing an internship at the company recently, which is good."
Tao Tao's eyes were firmly fixed on the snow-white wall in front of him, and the other side carefully turned up the volume of the call.
"Ah, that's good......"
Although Xiao Lan said this, no emotion could be heard in her voice.
"Is there something wrong with Senior Sister?"
Tao Tao really heard Xiao Lan's hesitation this time, and she wondered if the senior sister had something to tell her.
"Ah, I'm fine, I'm just asking you."
When Xiao Lan heard this, she vetoed it vigorously.
Tao Tao felt that there must be a problem.
"Well, are you going to have a holiday tomorrow?"
Before Tao Tao could think deeply, Xiao Lan immediately spoke.
"yes, I'll have the weekend off."
Tao Tao wondered why Xiao Lan asked herself this question.
And so on, and so on.
Tao Tao straightened up suddenly, and she suddenly remembered, how did Xiao Lan know that she was on vacation tomorrow?
"Then you're ...... tomorrow Are you going to go out? ”
Xiao Lan's increasingly hoarse voice came from the other side of the phone.
It's weird.
Tao Tao frowned, and then said.
"Senior sister, how do you know?"
After Xiao Lan heard Tao Tao ask like this, she suddenly panicked, she seemed to have noticed something wrong.
"Ah, most companies have weekends off, and then I thought you and Qianqian would go out for a walk."
Tao Tao listened to Xiao Lan's pale explanation.
"Qianqian is home."
Tao Tao is very sure at this moment, Xiao Lan must not be what he wants to say.
"Peach, ......"
Xiao Lan's voice disappeared for a moment, and it took a few seconds before it sounded again.
"It's okay senior sister, you can say it."
Tao Tao sighed, she wanted Xiao Lan to tell the real purpose of the call.
"Tomorrow, don't you go out, okay?"
Xiao Lan's slightly pleading voice came from the other side of the phone.
……
Tao Tao listened to Xiao Lan's words in shock.
What does she mean by that?
For a while, neither of them spoke, and the surroundings of the two of them were quiet and terrifying.
"Little Peach, listen to the senior sister's goodness, don't go out these two days."
Tao Tao listened to Xiao Lan's increasingly anxious tone, and didn't know what to say for a while.
Why do you have to stop yourself one or two?
"Senior sister, can you tell me why?"
Tao Tao's head is about to explode, is it so difficult for her to know the truth?
"This ......"
Xiao Lan really hesitated.
Tao Tao smiled and said.
"It's okay senior sister, I know you're worried about me."
When Xiao Lan heard Tao Tao say this, she was a little anxious all of a sudden.
But Tao Tao didn't give her a chance to persuade herself again.
"Senior sister, don't worry, I will take care of myself, goodbye, senior sister."
Tao Tao quickly hung up the phone after saying this.
Tao Tao put down her phone, covered her head, closed her eyes, and pondered.
What does the truth of these things really look like? Why did everyone come to stop her from finding the truth?
Tao Tao thought of Jiang Jinchen's thousands of instructions to him when he was leaving just now, telling him not to go out.
There is also the hint that Senior Sister Xiao Lan just had.
They are all afraid that they will be in danger, but ......
But Tao Tao really wants to urgently know who wants to hurt her.
In Tao Tao's memory, she has never done anything bad in her life, nor has she offended anyone.
Why are so many troublesome things happening today?
If the previous times such feelings were not obvious, then this time, Tao Tao can be very sure that these recent things have revolved around herself.
What the hell is this...... Why?
Xiao Lan on the other side took several seconds to react.
She listened to the voice on the phone that disappeared for a moment, frowned and clicked back.
"What are you doing?"
However, just as she was about to press the keyboard, a cold voice suddenly sounded behind her.
Xiao Lan was so frightened that the phone suddenly slipped out of her hand and fell on the table.
"Brother, brother?"
Xiao Lan turned her head and saw Xiao Qiong leaning against the door frame with her shoulders hugged.
"When did you come back?"
Xiao Lan looked at Xiao Qiong, whose face was very calm, and suddenly felt a chill.
"When you first dialed out."
Xiao Qiong's cold gaze stared at Xiao Lan's pale face.
After a while, he suddenly sighed.
"Xiaolan, don't worry about things that shouldn't be taken care of."
After Xiao Qiong finished speaking, she took one last look at Xiao Lan, who was gradually stiffening, turned around and walked out, disappearing at the end of the corridor.
