Bai Yong smiled and said, "If you meet the right one, you will get married, is it possible that you want your Uncle Yong to be single for the rest of your life." ”

The atmosphere eased slightly, and Gu Qiongyi said again: "Actually, Uncle Yuan really wants to meet Uncle Yong. ”

"He? Forget it. If you knew why I didn't want to talk to him, I wouldn't have said that. Bai Yong's attitude seemed to be a little resistant to Yuan Yunan.

Gu Qiongyi looked at Bai Yong curiously, not knowing what he meant.

Bai Yong said again: "Five years ago, when I had dinner at your house, he said in front of your father, not to mention that I had opened a room with your mother, and also took out a photo to show your father. ”

"......" Gu Qiongyi didn't know these things between adults at all. She subconsciously asked, "Is it true?" ”

"What do you say is true?" Bai Yong asked.

"You ...... my mom"

"We met at the class reunion 10 years after graduation, and I did go to her room. But you also know your mother's character, she only has your father in her heart, how can she have anything to do with me. Bai Yong's tone was a little annoyed, but more of a sense of loss.

He continued: "When I went to your house for dinner five years ago, your father kicked me out of the house because of that photo of Yuan Yunan. In order to prove that I have let go of your mother, after returning to country R, I will get married. I never had any contact with anyone else in Zhonghai City. Half a year later, I heard from my sister that there was a fire in your house, and your father and mother were gone. ”

Hearing Bai Yong say this, Gu Qiongyi quieted down.

If what Bai Yong said is true, then Yuan Yunan's previous statement is not completely credible.

But now it seems that neither Bai Yong nor Yuan Yunan seems to have anything to do with the fire.

Because Yuan Yunan left the scene early, and Bai Yong only learned about the fire that night after half a year.

Thinking of this, Gu Qiongyi asked again: "That night, apart from you, did anyone else go to my house?" ”

Bai Yong thought for a while, and suddenly thought of a person, he said: "That night, your domestic servant seemed to borrow money from your mother. But your mother won't borrow it. ”

"Borrow money?" Gu Qiongyi remembered that there was indeed a servant in their family.

It is better to call it a servant than an hourly worker.

Because she just went over every afternoon to help clean up the room, buy vegetables and wash clothes, she didn't live in Gu Qiongyi's house for a long time.

Gu Qiongyi didn't know much about the specific situation of this servant.

Bai Yong said again: "Your mother mentioned to us during dinner, saying that the maid's husband owed a lot of debts because of gambling. She can help with other favors, but she won't borrow money to gamblers. ”

Gu Qiongyi nodded. There were clues about the servant, but she hadn't paid attention to them.

She hadn't seen the servant since the fire.

Gu Qiongyi didn't know the name of the maid, nor did she know the contact information. Trying to find her is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack.

Gu Qiongyi thought to herself, even if her mother didn't lend money to the maid, it didn't seem necessary for the maid to set the fire directly, right?

She remembered that the servant was quite docile, not like someone who could do such a thing.

Gu Qiongyi felt that the clues on Bai Yong's side had almost been collected, and she said, "Uncle Yong, you can just put me down on the side of the road, and I won't disturb your rest." ”

Come to my place for a cup of tea, I haven't seen you for so many years, and I want to catch up with you.

Gu Qiongyi politely declined and said, "It's too late today, so I won't bother." Besides, my son must be waiting for me at home now, and I have to go back and put him to sleep. ”

Bai Yong didn't speak, and the car still drove forward.

Gu Qiongyi was a little displeased, couldn't Bai Yong understand her words?

"Uncle Yong......" Gu Qiongyi shouted.

Bai Yong spoke: "Over the years, I have missed Qingqing very much. Others think that I have a successful career and a happy family. But no one can understand the emptiness in my heart. ”

Gu Qiongyi's tone was already a little cold, and she said, "My mother is no longer alive. It doesn't make sense for Uncle Yong to say this kind of thing again. ”

"You look a lot like your mother." Bai Yong spoke, and Gu Qiongyi was a little frightened. Thinking that he should have drunk a lot of alcohol tonight, and the middle-aged man next to him had a record of hurting people after drinking before, he shouldn't have any bad intentions towards Gu Qiongyi, right?

Thinking of this, Gu Qiongyi took out her mobile phone and called Sheng Tianche.

Bai Yong raised his hand and took Gu Qiongyi's mobile phone.

Gu Qiongyi reached out to grab her mobile phone and said angrily: "Give me back my mobile phone and stop the car immediately." Otherwise, I'm going to call the police. ”

Bai Yong held Gu Qiongyi's mobile phone in his hand and did not give it to her.

Looking at Gu Qiongyi's vigilant look, he explained: "Don't get me wrong. I don't think anything wrong about you. Anyway, you're the daughter of Tintching. If I get married early, my children will be as old as you. I just missed Tam Qing too much, so I agreed to this selfish request to accompany me home for a cup of tea. ”

Hearing Bai Yong say this, Gu Qiongyi breathed a sigh of relief. But she still felt uncomfortable with Bai Yong's attitude of being a strong man.

Bai Yong said again: "Xiang Ze told me that you suspect that the fire five years ago was man-made. ”

Gu Qiongyi was surprised, Bai Yong already knew?

"I don't mind your suspicions of me, after all, we did meet on the night your mother died. Moreover, I also have a criminal record of drunken wounding. ”

Gu Qiongyi fell silent.

Bai Yong continued: "The reason why I am willing to come back this time is because I want to investigate this matter with you. If someone really wants to harm Qingqing. I, Bai Yong, will not let him go first. It doesn't matter who he is. ”

"Why didn't Uncle Yong say it earlier." Gu Qiongyi was completely relieved at this time.

"If I had told you at the beginning, you wouldn't have believed me. We have to get to know each other before we can work together. ”

Gu Qiongyi asked, "Does Uncle Yong have any clues?" ”

"The person I suspect the most at the moment is the servant."

"But, after all these years, where to find that servant?" Gu Qiongyi was a little distracted.

"Rest assured, as long as it is the truth, there will always be a day when it will be revealed." Bai Yong returned the phone to Gu Qiongyi and asked, "Are you willing to accompany me back for a cup of tea now?" ”

Gu Qiongyi said: "It's really late today. My husband and son would be worried. In this way, I will visit in person tomorrow and have a good chat with Uncle Yong. ”

Bai Yong didn't force it anymore and asked the driver to drive Gu Qiongyi back.

On the way, Sheng Tianche called Gu Qiongyi, and Gu Qiongyi said that she would go back soon.

After Bai Yong sent Gu Qiongyi back to his residence, he left.

Sheng Tianche came out of the room and saw that Bai Yong's car had already driven away.

He entered the room with Gu Qiongyi.

"You leave the banquet hall early, and you don't say a word to me. Do you know I'm worried about you. Sheng Tianche said.

"Bai Yong came back to help us find the murderer together." Gu Qiongyi said to Sheng Tianche.

"Are you sure he's okay?" Sheng Tianche asked.
