Chapter 39: The Unfortunate Rich Man
If you want to find a serious businessman in Huaihua City, Mr. Zhao is very good at it.
Huang Zhen, a wealthy businessman who hired Ji Mengna, lived in the peak area, and the next morning, Xiang Chen Liuling and his party rushed to Huang Zhen's residence.
The scenery along the way was very good, but when he arrived at the door of Huang's house, he found that there were white flowers and black curtains hanging around, and Xiang Chen Liuling had a bad premonition in his heart.
After pressing the doorbell for a long time, an old woman's voice rang, and she asked them to wait when she learned that they had something to find Huang Zhen.
Moments later, the door slowly opened, and Blanc drove into the courtyard.
This is an out-and-out mansion, Xiang Chen Liuling has only seen it on TV, and when he is in it, he feels like he is lost every minute.
In front of the castle-like house stood an old woman in a long black maid's dress, with white flowers pinned to her sleeves and chest.
When the old maid saw Xiang Chen Liuling and his party, her face suddenly changed, and then she changed to an indifferent appearance. She led the three of them into the room, and the interior of the house was decorated in a luxurious and luxurious style, and everywhere was shining, and it was really dizzying to be in it.
It's just that in such a gorgeous room, there is a subtle atmosphere of sadness. Looking at the black yarn and white flowers decorated around, Xiang Chen Liuling guessed if someone in this family had just passed away, but it was inconvenient to ask.
The maid led them to the study, where sat a beautiful woman with a sad face. She wears a black turtleneck with small white flowers on her sleeves and chest as the only ornaments.
However, such a plain and outrageous outrageous outfit contrasts with the mansion and is impressive.
There was a man standing next to the woman, this man was also dressed in black, pinned with white flowers, and a pair of black-framed glasses on his face, looking quite gentle.
The age of these two people seems to be no more than twenty years old, and they still have a sense of fit with a golden boy and a girl.
"Madam, the people of the Xiang family are here." The old maid bowed and left. As she turned, a look of disgust flashed in her eyes as she swept over the man.
The woman got up, barely squeezing out a smile on her pale face, and politely invited the three to sit down.
After some introduction, Xiang Chen Liuling figured out that the woman's name was Qin Heyan and Huang Zhen's wife, and the man's name was Zhao Jiang and Huang Zhen's secretary.
After Huang Zhen signed a contract with Ji Mengna, he unfortunately passed away suddenly ten days ago.
"Huh? This, that, you mourn and change. However, can you tell Mr. Huang why he passed away? Xiang Chen Liuling felt that things should not be too coincidental! Could it be that this family member's constitution is specifically designed to provoke deaths?
"He, he, he's had a heart attack, respiratory arrest, can't be rescued in time, and just left! He and I didn't even have a child, so he left me alone, how can I live in the future? As he spoke, Qin Heyan burst into tears, and the pear blossoms brought rain. But Xiang Chen Liuling always felt that in addition to sadness, her expression seemed to have a little unspeakable resentment.
Zhao Jiang hurriedly pulled out a handkerchief and handed it to Qin Heyan, with a look of pity in his eyes.
"I'm sorry, I, I, that, can I ask you one more person?" Xiang Chen Liuling asked with some embarrassment.
Zhao Jiang turned to Xiang Chen Liuling and said lightly:
"Miss Xiang, you have also seen it, Madame is not in good spirits, just ask me if you have anything. I am Huang Dong's secretary, and I know everything about him. ”
"Oh, I see, you're so young and promising! It seems that he is very trusted by you Huang Dong. Xiang Chen Liuling said politely, and then asked: "Then, I want Ji Mengna's contact information, do you know how we can find her?" ”
"So you want to find her, I have her contact information here, you wait." As he spoke, Zhao Jiang walked to the desk, picked up a pen and paper and quickly wrote down Ji Mengna's contact information.
Xiang Chen Liuling took the note and thanked him, and said two more polite words, seeing that this situation was naturally inconvenient to stay longer, so he said goodbye and left. Blank pushed Xiang Chen Liuling, while Wu Qian lowered her head the whole time and didn't say a word, as if she was very nervous about such a place.
"Isn't Blanc, am I unlucky? How do you run into dead people everywhere you go? Xiang Chen Liuling said with a bitter face.
Blank replied solemnly, "Miss, don't think too much about it, it's just a coincidence." ”
Xiang Chen Liuling sighed helplessly, and then tried to contact Ji Mengna, but he didn't expect to be really contacted.
Ji Mengna's voice was very fierce, and in order to be able to "trick" her to the house smoothly, Xiang Chen Liuling lied that he had admired her cooking skills for a long time, hoping to hire her to cook a meal at home.
"Please let me cook? How many people? How many meals? What are the standards? When Ji Mena heard that business had come to her door, her voice softened.
"Ah, that's it...... Just three people, just one meal. Standard...... I don't really understand this. Xiang Chen Liuling stammered.
The other party pondered for a moment and said, "Three people, one meal, tsk, I'm very expensive!" ”
"I know that." Xiang Chen Liuling felt that his brain began to sweat, and he felt that he saw that the funds were burning. If it goes on like this, it probably won't be long before I'm really going to sleep in the bridge cave, right!?
"Well, I'm not going to have something to do right now. You give me the address, and I'll talk to you in the evening. ”
Xiang Chen Liuling hurriedly told her the address of her home, made an appointment to meet at eight o'clock in the evening, and only after ending the call did she breathe a long sigh of relief.
"Miss, let's go back early today to rest, I will invite Dr. Fan in the afternoon, and let him look at your feet, if he confirms that there is no problem with your feet, you don't need to use a wheelchair anymore." Blank suggested.
As soon as he heard that he could no longer use a wheelchair, Xiang Chen Liuling was too late to be happy, and hurriedly adopted Blank's suggestion. Moreover, in the past few days, she also needs to be quiet and sort out her thoughts.
As soon as the car drove to the door of the house, Xiang Chen Liuling saw a familiar figure in a beige suit.
Xiao Tong was leaning against the door, holding a lollipop in his mouth, putting one hand in his pocket and waving at them with the other.
"Huh? Officer Xiao, why are you here? Is there any news? Xiang Chen Liuling poked his head out of the car window and asked.
"Ah...... Sort of, can you go in and talk about it? I'm actually looking for Wu Qian. Xiao Tong's face was ugly, as if he was holding a lollipop in his mouth and wrapped in super bitter coptis.
Looking at his appearance, it makes people feel very bad.
In the living room, everyone sat together, and Blank poured a cup of tea for everyone, and then stood beside Xiang Chen Liuling.
Xiao Tong has been silent, and it seems that he can't organize his own language. After drinking three cups of tea in a row, he said dryly:
"Wu Qian, have you been in touch with your mother these days?"
Wu Qian was stunned and shook her head silently.
"Are you sure your mother is back home?"
Wu Qian pursed her lips and didn't answer his question.
Xiang Chen Liuling couldn't bear it anymore, and said to Xiao Tong: "What are you doing asking these things around the corner?" Can't you just say something? ”
