126 Midnight private meeting
One morning a few days later, Jia Mengyan received a call from Quan Hui's parents, "Miss Jia, have you seen my Xiaohui in the past few days?" β
"Nope." She looked expressionless, "What's wrong with her?" β
"Xiaohui hasn't been home for several days, and her phone is turned off, so we can't reach her anywhere." The person on the other end of the phone was already in a hurry, "You're her best friend, can you help us find a way to find her?" β
Jia Mengyan let out a sneer, it was really retribution, "What can I do, you better call the police quickly." I've been missing for so many days, I'm afraid it's no good. β
"Wouldn't it? Miss Jia, don't scare us! The person on the other end of the phone was so frightened that his voice trembled.
Jia Mengyan was about to hang up the phone, and with a glance of her eyes, Xu Muzheng was coming down from upstairs, wearing a simple white shirt + suit pants, and her jacket was on her arm.
And the lavalier on his chest is unusually piercing.
Jia Mengyan clenched her silver teeth, and suddenly raised her voice, "The_One pet club knows, right?" You go find a pet trainer named Zhen Xin, Quan Hui's disappearance should have something to do with her. β
"Huh? Why? β
Xu Mu's face sank suddenly, and she was about to snatch the phone in her hand when she hurried over, Jia Mengyan walked out quickly, her voice sharp and piercing, "Quan Hui and Zhen Xin are in love with the same man, they are rivals, and they have had conflicts before!" β
"What are you doing?" Xu Mu caught up with her, snatched the phone hard, and hung up, his face was terrifying.
Jia Mengyan only felt that she was in a good mood for no reason, she raised her head and laughed, "Hasn't Quan Hui always had a crush on you?" Maybe she really went to Zhen Xin's trouble, but Zhen Xin killed her?! β
Her gloating expression, crazy and vicious, Xu Mu looked at her coldly: This woman is alive, sooner or later it will be a scourge.
He must find a way to get rid of Jia Mengyan, a mad dog that bites people indiscriminately.
When eating breakfast, Xu Mu habitually used the tablet to browse the local news of the day.
Suddenly, a piece of news about the discovery of an unknown female corpse in the Pingshan Reservoir jumped into his sight, reporting that a family of three went to climb the mountain early in the morning, and when they passed the reservoir, they found a large white sack floating on the water, looking like a human figure, so they immediately called the police.
He immediately cut off the network of Banshan Aster, Jia Mengyan stared at the phone and frowned, "What's the matter?" Suddenly unable to connect to the Internet? β
"It may be that the fiber optic cable in the community is faulty, and I will call to report for repair in a while." Xu Mu stepped forward and gently hugged her shoulders and said, "I think the weather is good today, why don't we go on a boat tour of the lake?" I've been so busy lately that I haven't been with you much in a few days. β
Jia Mengyan was overjoyed, "Okay, good." Then I'll go change now. β
Except for going to Jia's house to visit her parents, Xu Mu is not allowed to go out alone now, she has long been bored.
The scenery of the aster garden in the middle of the mountain is notoriously good, there is a large artificial lake nearby, Xu Mu took Jia Mengyan to row a boat for a morning, and in the afternoon he fished and swam by the lake, until it was dark.
Dinner was Korean barbecue on the balcony and some red wine. So not long after going to bed, Xu Mu fell asleep.
Jia Mengyan couldn't sleep, she turned her head to look at Xu Mu's side, his mobile phone was on the bedside table, did she want to take it and take a look?
He didn't answer several calls today, and hung up after looking at the caller ID. She pretended to ask him casually who he was, and he said it was an advertising pitch.
But she always felt a little inexplicably uncomfortable in her heart, and she didn't know if it was because of Quan Hui's sudden disappearance, or because of those missed calls.
Jia Mengyan tossed and turned until midnight, and couldn't help but want to take Xu Mu's mobile phone, but the phone suddenly rang.
Xu Mu woke up immediately, and she quickly closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep.
"Mengyan?" She felt Xu Mu gently push herself, Jia Mengyan didn't make a sound, but her breathing was heavy, as if she was asleep.
Xu Mu immediately walked out barefoot, Jia Mengyan quietly got out of bed, and saw the man hurriedly walking into the guest bedroom next door, and the phone was connected before the door could be closed.
His voice was extremely low, "What are you calling me so late?" β
"What? You're going to see me soon? The man's voice was full of surprise, "Quan Hui, you are Mengyan's best friend, aren't you afraid that she will be sad if you betray her like this?" β
It was actually a call from Quan Hui?
"Yes, something happened to the Jia family recently, but I've been trying to find a way to deal with it......"
"Don't pester me anymore...... What, you have already contacted the family of the accident to make a joint disturbance? Kwon Hui, are you crazy, Mengyan is so good to you......"
The more Jia Mengyan listened, the more annoyed she became, she had wasted so many years of treating Quan Hui as her only best friend, and now she was digging a wall behind her back and stabbing a knife?
"Food poisoning is not so easy to determine, and it is not something that you can just say to make trouble...... Have you gathered enough evidence? Quan Hui, don't be like this, what do you want, we can sit down and discuss it......"
Jia Mengyan heard with her own ears that her man lowered his posture and softened his tone for the sake of this family, and she couldn't help but feel extremely distressed: her father had fallen, and the burden of the whole family and the entire company was on his shoulders alone, and she couldn't help much.
"What did you say?" Xu Mu's voice suddenly became incredulous, "You said you want me?" Otherwise, you will ruin the Jia family? β
Jia Mengyan almost rushed in in a rage, but she held down her legs.
She heard Xu Mu be silent for a long time before she said with difficulty, obviously forced to make a choice, "Okay, I'll go over to you now." β
"Why go to your shop? I remember it was deserted a long time ago...... You don't want to be discovered, do you? β
"Mengyan has already slept. Got it, I'll go immediately, don't be impulsive. β
Jia Mengyan retreated to the bedroom, and soon, she heard the sound of Xu Mu cautiously entering the door, he changed his clothes and pants, took the car keys, and walked downstairs quickly.
She walked to the window and watched Xu Mu's car leave the villa, she immediately changed her clothes and pants and went to the garage, drove the red Porsche she hadn't driven for a long time, and then entered the address navigation.
She went to the shop that Quan Hui bought in Haixin District, and she helped take it down, No. 66, Liuliu Dashun. Originally, it was good for her to invest together, but that piece eventually became an unfinished project.
The red sports car quickly disappeared into a small dot in the night, and Xu Mu waited on the road to Haixin District, making sure where Jia Mengyan went, and a silent sneer rose on the corner of his mouth.
When he got home, his mother Xu Jing was waiting for him in the living room, but he was shocked, "Mom, you are not in good health, be careful of freezing in the living room." β
"Xu Mu, you asked me to call you at twelve o'clock, but you didn't answer and hung up directly. What are you going to do? β
"Didn't do anything." Xu Mu helped her back to the bedroom, "Go to bed early." I'm staying at home tonight. β
"Quarreled with Mengyan?"
Xu Mu's face was full of exhaustion, "Don't worry about it." I just want to get a good night's sleep at home right now. β
Xu Jing let out a heavy sigh, "Son, you are like this, my mother is distressed when she sees it." β
"Don't think about it." Xu Mu kissed her on the forehead, "Go to sleep." I'll talk about that tomorrow. β
Haixin District, an empty city.
Jia Mengyan drove all the way in, unimpeded, and she couldn't even see a street lamp, but she relied on her memory to drive fast.
When she arrived at the place, she casually parked the car nearby, then took out her mobile phone and turned on the light and walked forward.
There was silence all around, only the sound of her own footsteps echoing softly, and she came to shop 66 and saw the roller shutter door ajar, and it was pitch black inside, not like a person.
But she heard it clearly, Quan Hui asked Xu Mu to meet at this place.
With a heart, Jia Mengyan pushed the roller shutter door high, then felt the switch on the wall and pressed it with a snap.
As soon as the lights came on, the room was empty, and there was half a figure there.
What about Xu Mu?
What about Kwon Hui?
Jia Mengyan took two steps inside, kicking a hard object under her feet.
She looked down and saw that it was a can of beer, and there was something red on it. Jia Mengyan bent down and held it in her hand, and when she saw clearly that the dent of the beer can was stained with blood, she screamed in fright and slammed the can back to the ground.
"Help, helpβ"
