Chapter 17: Uncertainty and Suspicion Arise
Nanci was slightly stunned, "Why?" β
Then he remembered, "Do you suspect that the person who called Zhao Xianda is the eldest brother?" β
"Not sure!" Pei Hengzhou shook his head.
Nan Ci was terrified, "But if it's him, why is he doing this?" β
"He wants you to recover your memory, the seemingly ordinary almost car accident before, Qin Yashi's miscarriage, and even Zhao Xianda's kidnapping this time, I suspect it is all related to Pei Hengyuan." Pei Hengzhou smiled wryly.
Nan Ci admitted that the car accident that night and Qin Ya's miscarriage did remind her of some things, although vague, but she knew that those were the things that really happened to her.
"If you want me to recover my memory, just tell me what happened before, can't you? I have to make so many things out, and I have a child. Nan Ci was cold from head to toe, muttering to himself.
Without waiting for Pei Hengzhou to answer, Nan Ci said again, "Today is indeed the eldest brother who asked me out, he talked to me about you and Qin Ya, and he said-"
She wanted to speak and stopped, hesitating whether to tell Pei Hengzhou about Pei Hengyuan's conversation with her.
Looking at Pei Hengzhou's expression, she knew that this matter must be very important, even if Nan Ci didn't want to mention that conversation again, she thought that she had to confess at this moment.
Thinking of this, she said, "Big brother told me that Qin Ya's child is yours." β
Pei Hengzhou frowned, "I know, if I guessed correctly, Qin Yashi also told you, right?" β
It must be, otherwise, she wouldn't have asked him so bluntly before if Qin Yashi's child was his.
Nan Ci nodded, a smile flashing in her eyes.
"I heard Lin Jiang say that you were taken away at a little after nine o'clock, and the eldest brother came to the hospital at almost eleven o'clock to tell me about it, and I didn't want to investigate what he was doing during this period, but it is certain that he was delaying time. And I didn't get to the "big win gate" until after 12 o'clock, do you know why I'm so late? Pei Hengzhou suddenly asked an irrelevant question.
Nanci went through the things before and after Pei Hengzhou to the "big win gate" in his mind.
I probably knew in my heart, "Have you gone to find Zhao Xianda's wife and daughter?" β
Only by finding Zhao Xianda's wife and daughter can Pei Hengzhou not be so passive.
But Pei Hengzhou smiled meaningfully, and touched the back of Nanci's head dotingly, "It's really smart, but you only know one thing, but you don't know the other." β
"Qin Ya committed suicide in the hospital!" Pei Hengzhou said lightly, with a sneer in his tone.
Nan Ci stiffened, "Suicide? β
Pei Hengzhou nodded, "At first, she just wanted to see me, but after I went, she didn't let me go, and then I heard that my eldest brother said that you were taken away, so she cut her wrists and committed suicide, forcing me to stay in the hospital." β
It's hard to imagine what kind of mentality Qin Yashi had at that time, and what kind of emotions could threaten him with suicide.
However, something was wrong when I thought about it, "Do you suspect that the eldest brother and Qin Ya teamed up to hold you back?" β
"I can't hide anything from you." Pei Hengzhou's eyes flashed.
"Butβwhy did Ya Qin do this?" Nanci was puzzled.
Pei Hengzhou was also a little dazed, "I don't know at the moment, and I can't be sure if they join forces, or if they have ulterior motives, but it's better to be careful, you just stay away from them in the future." β
Nanci was silent for a moment, and finally nodded.
She remembered one more thing, so she stared at Pei Hengzhou, "That-is the child in Qin Ya's belly yours?" β
Pei Hengzhou's eyebrows were cold, and he smiled and said, "No! β
Every time he asked this question, Pei Hengzhou's answer was always so firm, there was no falsehood and deception in his tenacious eyes, and it was difficult for her not to believe it.
"What? You don't believe me? β
"It's not!" Nan Ci shook her head, "I just don't understand, Qin Ya lied because she wanted to redeem you, so what did the eldest brother lie for?" If he lies, he is not afraid that when the time comes, he will do a paternity test, and all lies will be exposed? β
Pei Hengzhou fell into deep thought because of these words.
His eyes flashed on Nan Ci's face, and there was a softness somewhere in his heart.
The inky moonlight poured in through the window, and under the dim orange light, her graceful silhouette was like the bright moon in the night sky, as warm as water.
He leaned in close to her and couldn't help but kiss her on the lipsβ
A beautiful room, after the entanglement of spirit and flesh, Nanci was so tired that he fell asleep under the rich erotic breath like a flame.
Pei Hengzhou was not sleepy, took his head and looked at Nan Porcelain, got up and put on a windbreaker to go to the study.
Lin Ting and Lin Jiang were waiting in the study, and their fatigue was weakened by Pei Hengzhou's arrival, and the two of them stood up together to greet Pei Hengzhou.
Pei Hengzhou motioned for the two to sit down, and he sat down in the middle of the sofa, he smoked a cigarette and was about to light it, but after thinking about it, he put it down again, and directly ordered Lin Jiang, "Go and investigate the people behind Zhao Xianda." β
Lin Jiang nodded, "I already asked someone to investigate just now." β
Pei Hengzhou shook his head with a calm expression, "I mean, mainly investigate Pei Hengyuan!" After Nanci and IELTS met last time, Nanci almost had a car accident, this time Pei Hengyuan met her and there was another incident with Zhao Xianda, as well as IELTS rolling downstairs and miscarrying, don't you think all this is a bit familiar? β
Lin Jiang and Lin Ting looked at each other.
It is indeed familiar, isn't this a repetition of some of Nanci's previous encounters?
Although Lin Ting had never met Nanci before, she knew everything that happened three years ago.
A trace of astonishment flashed on her cold face, "Someone wants Wen Nanci to recover his memory?" β
Pei Hengzhou sneered, "The car accident and the IELTS miscarriage have stimulated some memories in the depths of her brain, the other party is in the shadows, and she knows everything about people and things, if Lin Jiang doesn't bring Zhao Xianda's wife and daughter back today, I'm afraid that the kidnapping of Nanci three years ago will happen again." β
The reason why he only realized this at this moment was because he didn't believe that Pei Hengyuan couldn't wait to declare war with him after he came back in such a short time.
But since Pei Hengyuan returned to China, all the past events have been played out in turn, until now he has to think deeply about this problem.
Of course, there is also Qin Yalts among them, I don't know what role she plays in the whole process and plan.
After thinking about it, Pei Hengzhou said, "By the way, let's investigate Qin Yashi!" β
Lin Jiang was puzzled, but he didn't ask much, and nodded in response.
Pei Hengzhou instructed again, "Lin Ting, send a few more people to take turns guarding around the villa, don't let Nanci find out." β
Lin Ting said, "Do you need me to go to the villa to accompany my wife for a while?" β
"That's not necessary, just pay attention to Pei Hengyuan's movements."
"Got it."
"How is Zhao Luyan arranged?" Pei Hengzhou asked Lin Jiang again.
"It's in California." Lin Jiang knew that it was Zhao Xianda's daughter who was asking, so he replied.
"Okay, send someone to watch, that girl doesn't seem to be simple, she's smart, don't make any trouble." Pei Hengzhou said.
"Sir, rest assured!" Lin Jiang's tone of assurance.
Lin Jiang and Lin Ting were the most powerful assistants by his side, and he was naturally relieved.
He waved his hand and scolded the two of them back, but Lin Jiang hesitated and always wanted to say something, Pei Hengzhou twisted his eyebrows, "If you have something to say, just say it." β
Lin Jiang said, "The company's business-"
Pei Hengzhou interrupted him, "Let's stay put, wait patiently, investigate the matter I gave you clearly, and then discuss our next move." β
If these things are related to Pei Hengyuan, then Pei Hengzhou naturally doesn't have to be polite, but if it has nothing to do with him, he is willing to use fair means to have a fair competition.
Lin Jiang and Lin Ting left separately.
The snow outside the window continued until morning.
Nan Ci woke up in Pei Hengzhou's warm chest.
Her eyes were staring, motionless and completely petrified, not even daring to breathe too hard, but his distinctive mint scent still mixed with the air and poured into her nose.
The mobile phone on the bedside table rang loudly, Pei Hengzhou was awakened, and was about to get up to answer the phone, but he felt that the warm nephrite was in his arms at this moment, and he was a little reluctant to let go.
Her skin was white, as delicate as white porcelain jade, flawless, and his warm fingertips touched it like silk.
Feeling that he woke up, but he didn't move for a long time, Nanci raised his head slightly and reminded, "Your phone is ringing!" β
Pei Hengzhou hummed lightly, but he didn't mean to answer the phone.
Nan Ci glanced at it from a distance, it seemed to be Cheng Ke, she was just about to speak, the blue screen calmed down, and the surroundings fell into silence, only a moment later, the bell rang again.
Nan Ci left Pei Hengzhou's arms and handed him the mobile phone, "Cheng Ke's call, hurry up and answer it, maybe someone is in a hurry!" β
Pei Hengzhou dropped a kiss on Nanci's forehead, and lazily picked up the phone, "What's the matter?" β
"Second brother, there is a situation over there in Nanshan!" Cheng Ke on the other end of the phone was obviously a little anxious, and his voice was so loud that Nan Ci could hear it clearly.
Pei Hengzhou frowned, his expression became uncertain and extremely complicated, he glanced sideways at Nan Ci, and hurriedly got out of bed to answer the phone on the balcony.
The snow outside the window has stopped, but the white snow outside has not yet melted, and Pei Hengzhou's thin body melts into the white expanse, with a somewhat ethereal feeling.
His expression was very solemn, and from time to time he looked through the window, as if he was full of vigilance.
Nan Ci smiled at him and got up to go to the bathroom.
ββ
in the hospital.
Qin Ya woke up and saw that the person sitting leisurely next to him was Pei Hengyuan, who was looking at the morning newspaper in his hand with Erlang's legs crossed.
"Pei Hengyuan." Qin Ya called him.
He didn't look at her either, only smiled indifferently, "Awake?" I've asked people to buy breakfast, you can lie down a little longer. β
"What about Pei Hengzhou?"
"Gone last night!"
Qin Ya bit his lip, his eyes were red, and a pain rose in his heart.
"I told you not to rush it." Pei Hengyuan put down the newspaper in his hand at this time, raised his eyes and stared at Qin Yashi, whose face was pale, "Now that the child is gone, you have also used the method of crying, making trouble and hanging yourself, but what about Pei Hengzhou?" still ignores you, and your gains outweigh your losses. β
