At this time, most people are working, and there are not many people in the café, so it is also a quiet place.

I sat there sucking the juice through a straw.

"Zhang Zhouzhou?" Suddenly, a man's voice stopped me.

I sat in my chair and didn't get up, I just tilted my head and looked back.

The man looked plain and familiar, and I was stunned for a moment when I saw his face clearly.

He is Luo Qing's official boyfriend, Guo Qiang.

I suddenly remembered the picture of Luo Qing and Meng Minghao together last night, and I, as Luo Qing's sisters, inexplicably felt a little awkward facing Guo Qiang now.

"Coincidentally, you're here too." I sneered.

He pulled out a chair and sat down next to me with a cup of coffee.

I immediately felt uncomfortable.

"Why are you here? Where's your husband? Guo Qiang's gaze swept over my bulging belly.

I turned my head, took a very unnatural sip of the juice, looked down at the bubbles coming out of the cup, and said, "He's busy, let me wait for him here." ”

He nodded.

I lowered my head and thought for a while, then asked, "How are you and Luo Qing doing?" Did you have any emotional problems? ”

"It's good, it's the same as before." Guo Qiang smiled and said, "Why do you ask that? ”

"Nothing, just ask."

The two men were at a standoff for a moment.

Guo Qiang rubbed the coffee cup in his hand, looked at me with the rest of his eyes, and asked solemnly: "Zhang Zhouzhou, do you know Meng Minghao?" ”

At the mention of this name, my heart suddenly skipped half a beat.

It's as if it wasn't Luo Qing who was knocked out, it was me.

Fortunately, my hair was long, which hid my somewhat strange expression for a moment.

After I calmed my mind, I put my hair behind my ears, pretended to be nonchalant, and said, "Yes, what's wrong?" ”

"His relationship with Luo Qing seems to be quite good."

Guo Qiang's face was expressionless, his expression was light, and he couldn't tell if he knew something.

Besides, now, even I am not sure what the relationship between Meng Minghao and Luo Qing is.

I simply pretended to be stupid: "Really? I haven't seen Luo Qing for a long time. ”

"I heard that Meng Minghao is a Taoist priest?" He asked.

"Hmm."

"How about the income of the Taoist priest?"

"I don't know, it shouldn't be too bad."

Guo Qiang nodded thoughtfully, and then asked, "Where is he a Taoist priest?" Immortal Mountain's? ”

I said "um".

He suddenly smiled a little deeper, and quietly changed the topic: "How are you doing?" I haven't heard from you since I helped you escape from the hospital last time. ”

"I'm married." I smiled politely: "Because I am pregnant with a child, it is inconvenient to hold a wedding, and when the wedding is held later, I will ask Luo Qing to bring you along." ”

"Married? With the man who imprisoned you? ”

I was stunned.

He was talking about Liu Shichen.

"It's not him." I smiled awkwardly.

Guo Qiang glanced at me, then lowered his head to sip the coffee in his hand.

The coffee in his hand quickly bottomed out, and he called the waiter to refill the cup, and put the cup in his hand again.

"Are you really okay with Luo Qing?"

"It's fine."

I had nothing to say, so I put my head on my hand and let it go.

Guo Qiang is not very handsome, he is relatively tall and strong, now the weather is hot, he wears few clothes, and he has well-proportioned and not exaggerated muscles looming, which looks like he has been trained all year round.

Luo Qing has stated before that she doesn't like this type, she prefers tall and thin, white and clean men.

As for why they are together, I have never been clear.

After about half an hour, Xu Yijin rushed back, and he saw Guo Qiang sitting next to me, with some eyebrows raised, and he didn't show much reaction, nor did he have any communication with him.

On the contrary, it was Guo Qiang who took the initiative to get up from the seat and greeted him: "You are Zhang Zhouzhou's husband, right?" I'm Luo Qing's boyfriend, I just happened to meet and chatted a few words. Since you're here, I happen to have something to do, so I won't continue to bother. ”

Xu Yijin nodded slightly.

After Guo Qiang left, the atmosphere was not so depressing.

When he was there, I was always afraid that I would say something wrong and cause trouble to Luo Qing.

"Don't have any more dealings with him." Xu Yijin said.

I didn't want to have anything to do with Guo Qiang, but when I heard him say this, I subconsciously asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Xu Yijin looked at me sideways, "He's too extreme." ”

I don't know why.

Although Guo Qiang is not very good-looking, he looks serious, and I really can't think of what the word "extreme" can have to do with him.

But since Xu Yijin said this, there must be a reason for him, Guo Qiang and I are not familiar with each other, if it weren't for Luo Qing, it is estimated that there would be no intersection in the future.

"What did you just do?" I didn't want to continue the discussion with unrelated people, so I shifted the conversation.

"Supervise the renovation of the workers."

"Do you need to supervise this yourself?"

"I'm worried that someone with bad intentions is secretly doing something." Xu Yijin is meaningful: "The people in the company don't understand feng shui, and it won't help to let them stare at it." ”

He looked at me with his eyes down, and suddenly said, "Is the key to the rental house you rented before still there?" ”

I froze there, and all the things that had happened in that house came to my mind.

I hadn't been there for two months, and I still had a lot of my groceries there, but I didn't have the courage to pick them up.

When renting a house, the landlord paid half a year's rent, so the landlord will not take back the house in a short time.

The keys are with me right now, and I have a habit of stringing all my keys together.

I nodded and said, "It's still there, what's wrong?" ”

"Wait for two days, I'll be free and go get all the things back for you." He said.

The thought that my phone wallet and college textbooks were in the rental house immediately made me nod my head.

Thinking like this, I was in a better mood, and I didn't forget to tease him: "Aren't you very good at unlocking, why do you need a key?" ”

Xu Yijin glanced at me, "Hey, I'll only break the lock, but I won't repair the lock." ”

I giggled.

He habitually flicked on my forehead and said, "I have asked Uncle Li to come and pick you up, you go home first, and the nanny is waiting for you at home." She'll be with you until I go home. ”

"What about you? Don't you go home together? ”

"The company still needs someone to supervise, it's gray inside, and it's not suitable for you to stay longer. If you don't want to go home, you can ask Uncle Li to take you for a walk. Xu Yijin said patiently.

I'm idle everywhere, and I don't pick a place, so I readily agreed.

The driver, Uncle Li, was waiting downstairs in the café, Xu Yijin led me to the front of the car, opened the door of the back seat for me, and carefully helped me sit in.

I sat in, fastened my seatbelt, and he closed the door. At the end, he didn't forget to add: "Remember to call me when you get home." ”

"Okay." I should not do any of them.

Uncle Li started the car, and Xu Yijin's figure outside the window gradually moved away, and I didn't retract my gaze until I couldn't see him at all.

Uncle Li glanced at me in the rearview mirror, smiled, and showed a lot of wrinkles on his elderly face, and said, "You have a really good relationship with Mr. Xu, I can see that Mr. Xu has you in his heart." ”

I didn't expect Uncle Li, who has always been a man of few words, to comment on Xu Yijin like this.

I sneered self-deprecatingly, "I hope it's the same as you say." ”

If Xu Yijin really cares about me so much, how can he be so stingy that he doesn't even want to say more about liking.

But apart from feelings, what else can he want from me.

The car didn't drive fast, the windows were open for a third of the gap, and a gentle breeze blew in from outside, blowing on the face, which was quite comfortable.

Uncle Li suddenly reminded aloud: "Miss Zhang, there is a car that has been following us. ”

I immediately looked back through the window.

There was indeed a white car behind him, the brand was very popular, and the license plate number I had never seen before.

"How long have you been following?"

"It's been behind it since you got in the car." Uncle Li said.

I looked back at it again.

Sure it's a car I've never seen before.

The car followed unhurriedly, and it was impossible to see what the person in the driver's seat looked like.

"Find a way to get rid of it." I withdrew my gaze.

Uncle Li glanced at me again in the rearview mirror, which could not be denied.

The car drove to a remote road, and the white sedan behind it seemed to be not following closely, and was quickly thrown away and disappeared without a trace.

I looked behind me to make sure the car never followed.

Along this road, not far away is the rental house where I once lived, thinking that I was still talking about this place with Xu Yijin at the last moment, and this moment I saw that it had already arrived.

I don't know if my brain is pumping, so I said to Uncle Li: "Pull over at the intersection in front, I want to go to the place where I used to live." ”

After the car stopped, Uncle Li opened the door for me and asked, "Do you need me to go up with you?" ”

I nodded.

It's been two months, but when I come to this place, I still remember those things from that night.

Every scene and frame made me shiver.

Uncle Li had no objection and said, "I'll park the car and come back with you." ”

"Okay."

There was no parking in this place, so Uncle Li drove the car to the underground garage, and I went around the community.

It stands to reason that at this time, there are usually many old men and old ladies in the community, but today I haven't seen any of them.

I thought maybe it was hot weather, and I couldn't say if I was resting at home.

The community is not big, I walked around, and before Uncle Li came over, I called him, but his mobile phone was turned off, and he couldn't get through at all.

I walked to the gate of the community again, and there was no trace of Uncle Li and Che Zihe on this long road.

I thought that nothing should happen in broad daylight, so I left a message for the doorman, so that he could see Uncle Li, tell him my house number, and go up first.

The hallway was as cool as ever, as if it was not affected by the heat outside.

I got on the elevator, and when the elevator door was about to close, a hand reached in and resisted it.

Immediately after, a man walked in, stood next to me, glanced at the button on the floor, and didn't press it.

I thought that he was too far away to press, so I asked politely in a whisper, "What floor are you going to?" ”

"Just like you."

When I heard the man's voice, my eyelids jumped.

Who else could there be in this crow-like ugly voice but the man who lived across the street from the rental house?

I craned my neck to see his face.

Sure enough, it was him.

As if noticing my gaze, he turned his face sideways to look at me and smiled at me.

I immediately withdrew my gaze.

At this moment, my palms were sweating nervously.

If he knew that he would bump into him, he shouldn't have come to this place in the first place, and even if he did, he should have waited for Uncle Li to come along.

I just hope the elevator will go a little faster.

The man's face was blurred in the elevator mirror, and he said in a hoarse voice, "I haven't seen you again in this time, have you moved?" ”

"Hmm." I whispered a nasal response.

His voice was the worst of all the voices I've ever heard.

It's like a crow on the verge of death, and suddenly it can speak human words, that weird and uncomfortable feeling.

The man turned his head to look at me, and I felt his gaze, so I buried my head low, trying to avoid his gaze.

"Don't be so afraid of me." His gaze was still on my head.

I squeezed my palms and didn't speak.

His face is very similar to Xu Yijin's, almost without flaws, but his facial features are still slightly inferior. The general sound of being pulled by a saw doesn't quite match this face.

The elevator "ding" and soon reached the floor.

He didn't mean to move, so I hesitated for a moment and stepped out of the elevator first, only to see him come out after me.

My scalp is a little numb.

There was a dead man standing behind him, and it was estimated that he had changed someone, and he couldn't keep his composure.

I walked to the door of the rental house, lowered my head and pretended to be digging through the keys in my bag, but the corner of my eye kept an eye on his movements.

The man leaned against the railing of the hallway, and the shadow of the railing stood diagonally on the ground.

Only there is no shadow of him.

I looked down and searched my bag with my hand, but there was nothing in the bag at all, and the key was easy to get up.

But I just didn't dare to take out the key under his nose.

I always want to wait for him to enter the house before I go in.

The man leaned against the railing and stared at me for a moment, as if he saw my intentions, and walked over in two steps of three, easily took the key out of my bag, and turned it twice in his hand with the key ring.

"Well, I'll take it out for you." He hung the key on his index finger and shook it.

My heart jumped, and I immediately stood on tiptoe and reached for the set of keys.

He didn't give it back to me, but opened the door for me, hung the key on the doorknob, and said with a smile, "There's nothing to see in this room, I'll wait for you at the door, lest you die in it, and no one will know." ”

I stood there for a long time without daring to move, and when I saw that he was just standing in the doorway and looking at me, without any other movement, I tentatively went to get the key from the doorknob.

He still didn't react.

I cautiously entered the room, closed the door, and lost sight of his face, and then I breathed a sigh of relief, and my whole body relaxed.
