Chapter 180: Head to head
"Are you alright? Actually, that's just one of the reasons I'm looking for you. Xuanyuan Fan looked at her as he spoke, worried that his next words would stimulate her even more, and he hesitated a little in his heart.
Jingyi nodded: "It's okay, you can say it." "If you're coming, let the storm be more violent.
He looked at her expression and made sure that she was okay, so he continued: "Twenty years ago, there was a secret document in City A called Extreme No. 1, which was injected by foreign capital and raised funds in Market A to raise a secret fund for the construction of a warlord base. According to reliable information, most of the funds raised that year were used for the construction of warlord bases, and a considerable part of the funds secretly disappeared. ”
Jingyi didn't understand, what does this secret document and secret funds have to do with herself? She heard it a little foggy.
"What is the point of you telling me this?"
The management of the funds was in charge of a man named Hu Zhiqiang, who was the deputy mayor of City A at the time, and was in charge of the construction of the warlord base, but not long after the incident, someone reported that he had embezzled the secret fund, so he received an investigation from the organization, and he was imprisoned. Herein lies the problem. First of all, how can a healthy person die suddenly for no reason? Secondly, he was honest and conscientious during his tenure, not like a person who would embezzle public funds, and thirdly, he also had a very good girlfriend named Chen Miqi, that is, your aunt. ”
"Chen Miqi is my second aunt, but I heard from my family that after graduating from college, she ran away from home with her family, and since I can remember, her family has rarely mentioned her. Only once or twice did I hear my aunt inadvertently mention that she also had a twin sister, and when I asked again, my aunt just shook her head with a lonely expression and refused to say anything more. ”
"She's in City A now. Grandpa said that the Liang tragedy was her hand. ”
Xuanyuan Fan's words reminded Jingyi that on the night of the banquet, the figure she saw in the flower garden, and the face that took off her mask, were exactly the same as her aunt. If that person is really Chen Miqi, then all this can be explained. It's just why did she come back after so many years? Why kill those dignitaries? And Xuanyuan Fan's grandfather and aunt seem to know the reason for all this, if these mysteries can be solved, will the secret of the blood diamond be revealed? She remembered very well that in the café of Dadong Shopping Mall, at the end of the conversation between her aunt and a certain man, she mentioned the blood diamond and the bright star of the auction, yes, they also mentioned a person named Qinghe.
"Do you know this person Qinghe?" Jingyi looked at Xuanyuan Fan with some eagerness.
Xuanyuan Fan was a little puzzled by her question, but still answered truthfully: "She is my mother's sister, that is, my aunt, but she died more than ten years ago." Why did you suddenly ask about this? His suspicions suddenly rose, and he was a little alert to her problem, this matter has been so long that he has forgotten the existence of his aunt, since the death of his aunt, the contact between the family and the Long family has gradually decreased, until now, there is basically no contact, only the death day of the aunt, the mother will go to the Long family. However, over the years, Long Zhexiang has been quite dedicated, neither remarrying nor finding a lover, and concentrating on taking care of his winery business.
Listening to his words quietly, she smiled faintly and shook her head, as if she was answering him, and as if she was at a loss, she didn't know why she asked this, but she felt faintly uneasy in her heart. So many things are connected together, stirring up/making people panic, always feeling like something is going to happen.
For a while, neither of them spoke, as if they were thinking about their own thoughts, and as if they were waiting for the other to speak.
"How did your grandfather know about these things?"
"Can you get in touch with Miqi Chen?"
There was a silence for a while, and the two of them didn't happen to speak at the same time. Jingyi smiled: "You say it first." ”
"Can you get in touch with Miqi Chen?"
"I'll try."
"Well, what do you want to ask?"
"How did your grandfather know about these things?"
Xuanyuan Fan hesitated, cleared his throat, and said slowly: "Grandpa, I should have participated in the events of that year, I once inadvertently read the relevant documents. Speaking of this, Xuanyuan Fan's eyes flickered a little, and a trace of uneasiness crossed his eyes, he must know something about the Extreme No. 1 document, but he didn't say it, and she didn't want to ask, so he continued to narrate:
"Coupled with some information that my grandfather occasionally asked me to investigate, I sorted out some things, but my grandfather didn't allow me to dig deeper, and I stopped whenever I went to a key place. Recently, however, he asked me to keep an eye on developments related to blood diamonds, including Yang Zhicheng, who was auctioned off last time, and the purchaser of blood diamonds. ”
The purchaser of the blood diamond, the iceberg man?
Speaking of this, Xuanyuan Fan looked into Jingyi's eyes: "That's why I came to you." ”
It turns out that the iceberg man bought a sky-high blood diamond, and his identity is mysterious, they have no way to start, they just happened to see their "nude photos" from the newspaper, and what is even more coincidental is that she is the heroine of the nude photos, from the degree of intimacy, she must know the identity and information of the other party.
However, Xuanyuan Fan really thought wrong, her understanding of the iceberg man was limited to his owning a non-Korean restaurant, superb lockpicking skills, and of course, that cold face that had not changed for thousands of years.
She lowered her head a little embarrassed: "The relationship between us is not what you think, in fact, I don't know much about him." When she said this, she herself felt embarrassed and didn't know much? But such an intimate gesture, such an ambiguous action, who would believe it? Even she felt embarrassed when she saw it herself! Sometimes, I have to admire the candid photographer in my heart, I actually photographed them so photogenicly, in the antique building, the posture of hugging and kissing is so beautiful, like a pair of loving people, sweet, right, more fresh and natural than those luxurious and exquisite wedding photos.
After leaving Xuanyuan Fan, Jingyi stood on the side of the road waiting for the car, the wind blew her long hair slightly, a few strands of long hair blew down her cheeks, she stretched out her hand to pin them behind her ears naturally, and continued to stand on the side of the road to look, at this time this place is not good for taxis, but she didn't want to go any further, as if she was angry with someone, standing there as if she was angry with someone, watching the traffic coming and going, the bustling flow of people, and competing with herself.
"Get in the car." A top-of-the-line Ferrari sports car parked next to her, the window rolled down, it was the iceberg man's cold face, Jingyi looked away a little angrily, unmoved. The resentment in his heart seemed to have found a place, and his eyes became more and more cold. The iceberg man didn't care, he was always so cold, he didn't seem to be moved by anything, I really don't know, such a cold and ruthless person, how could Cha Eunjun fall in love with him at a glance and follow him so far away?
"You don't want to settle the peach scandal between you and me?" In a word, it was neither light nor heavy, but it reached her heart, her heart was stunned, and the next second, she unwillingly opened the car door and sat in the passenger cab.
"Say, how to solve it!" She was so angry that she didn't even want to look at his face, her eyes looked coldly through the car window, watching the ever-changing landscape pass by in front of her eyes, but it was like a vague abstract painting, as if she had seen everything, but she couldn't see anything clearly, hazy.
"Solved."
Jingyi retracted her gaze and looked at him puzzled, thinking indignantly in her heart, since it was all solved, she took this trick to get her into the car, it was really a hateful villain, look at that eyebrow, it looked like something handsome, but it was a pity that she had a good skin, but her heart was extremely dark. If the color can represent a person's heart, his heart must be black and not slippery!
Hate to hate, the words still have to be clear.
"Since you've solved it, it's just right, drop me home."
"Not now, I still have to do something."
Jingyi never expected that what he said to do something would turn out to be to go to the mayor's house to ask for guilt.
And what she didn't expect was that Lei Shaochen was actually in the Zhang family at this moment!
The atmosphere at the moment made her angry and embarrassed. A pair of hands felt awkward wherever they were placed, probably sensing her uneasiness, the iceberg man thoughtfully took her hand, ten fingers intertwined, warm and ambiguous. Although she hates him, she is inexplicably grateful for his small gesture, in front of Lei Shaochen and Zhang Xinyu, she doesn't want to be miserable, and what can show her happiness better than getting a man's distress and love? She pretended to look at him affectionately, her round eyes were misty, and he just smiled faintly, gentle and elegant.
"Mayor Zhang, did you watch the news today?" He withdrew his warm gaze, and his eyes suddenly sharpened when he looked at everyone.
Jingyi sighed in her heart, this man is free, others don't know, but she knows, the warmth he showed to her just now is just a show for everyone to see, gloomy and cold is the expression he should have, just like at this moment, his eyes are sparse and cold, the inky jewel-like eyes are extremely bright, and the brilliance that shoots out makes people shudder.
"......" Mayor Zhang didn't know what he was asking, so he was stunned for a while, waiting for the next step.
Jingyi secretly observed the mayor's expression, and couldn't see his strange appearance, thinking that he must not know these small movements behind Zhang Xinyu, in this case, why did the iceberg man still aim his sharpness at him? Presumably he had other plans this time, right?
It turned out that he unknowingly became his pawn again. This man is really hidden, the men here, except for Lei Shaochen, I am afraid they are not his opponents, these people are not enough for him to be calm, not enough for him to be ruthless. When they meet on narrow roads, the brave wins, and the fearless and desperate person is often the ultimate winner. They are distracted and sensible enough, and no obstacle can stop them from moving forward.
