Chapter 29 Grey Income
"Okay then..."Even though Tang Yuran was reluctant to accept this fact, from what she knew, Xu Ziqing's quality of life and her income were indeed disproportionate.
Although she had been trying to ignore the issue all along, now, when the issue was brought up directly, she could no longer act as if nothing had happened.
Wei Zhongwen's question was sharp and direct, so that Tang Yuran couldn't ignore it.
If Xu Ziqing is really at a financial disadvantage in this relationship, it means that the life she once had was able to achieve it through Qin Kai.
Tang Yuran suddenly remembered a meeting between the two a year ago, at that time, her relationship with Xu Ziqing was relatively good.
It was a Saturday afternoon, and the two hadn't seen each other for many days, so they made an appointment to go out and play together.
Tang Yuran and Xu Ziqing have known each other for many years, and they are in a state of not being in touch on weekdays, but every once in a while, the two will meet very tacitly.
And this time the time apart is obviously longer than any previous time, the reason is very simple, that is, Xu Ziqing is in love.
At the beginning, Tang Yuran was supportive of Xu Ziqing's falling in love, as long as this person could make Xu Ziqing happy, she had nothing to say.
But gradually, Tang Yuran found that this was not the case.
After Xu Ziqing fell in love, the contact between the two gradually decreased, and even this meeting was delayed many times.
This time, the two met and went to the cake shop they frequented. At two o'clock in the afternoon, it was the hot time, nesting in the cake shop blowing the air conditioner, and eating a small cake, it was the most comfortable time for the two of them.
Tang Yuran was the first to arrive at the agreed place, ordered her favorite cake for Xu Ziqing, and casually began a long wait.
Xu Ziqing has never been punctual, and Tang Yuran has long been used to it, so she prepared the book early and prepared to start waiting for a long time.
Time passed minute by minute, Tang Yuran had already read a third of the book, and the coffee in the cup had already been refilled, usually at this time, Xu Ziqing should have arrived.
Tang Yuran couldn't help frowning, hesitated, but picked up the phone and dialed the familiar number.
After a while, it was connected, the familiar mobile phone rang, Tang Yuran looked up and found that Xu Ziqing had come to the door, she smiled knowingly and hung up the phone.
"How's it going, it's early this time, right?" Before he could get closer, Xu Ziqing spoke, and there was some smugness in his words.
"yes, it's only a minute later than before." Tang Yuran smiled and said jokingly.
"How is it possible, I deliberately went out early this time, who knows that I was still stuck in a traffic jam."
"People who can be blocked for an hour at noon, I don't think there is anyone else but you." Tang Yuran said as if he was demolishing the stage.
"Oh, it's hard to meet once, so don't pick and choose." Xu Ziqing said, picked up the fork in front of him, and fed a large mouthful of cake to himself.
"How's it taste?"
"Not bad, but it feels a little worse than before." Xu Ziqing said as she took another bite into her mouth.
"Really? I think you've eaten too much of your delicious food, and you can't taste it before. Tang Yuran said, looking at Xu Ziqing's handbag as if gestured. It's only been a few months, and there's a new bag, can't you save some money? ”
"Why save money, I'm not a man, I don't have to buy a house and marry a wife." Xu Ziqing said, looking as she should be. "Besides, women, if you don't treat yourself well, how can there be a good man who looks up to you. On the contrary, you are not looking for a boyfriend until now. ”
"Hey, why are you talking about you, it's on me again. I'll stop talking. Tang Yuran said as if begging for mercy.
"Okay, every time I mention it, it's like I'm going to kill you."
"I'm not kidding you, your problem of spending money and spending money should really be changed, such a bag, tens of thousands at every turn, like you said, even if you want to be good to yourself, you can't use all the money to buy these luxury goods."
"Look at what you said, I'm not stupid, I can still eat or drink, just to buy a bag."
"But, where did you get so much money, and the high-speed rail crew paid so much salary?" Tang Yuran asked puzzled.
"Of course not, I have a little trick to make money." Xu Ziqing said, looking mysterious.
"It can't be..."Tang Yuran thought of something, and stopped halfway through speaking.
"What?"
"It can't be your boyfriend's money, right?" After hesitating for a while, Tang Yuran still spoke.
"Of course not! What do you think, am I the kind of person who spends men's money? ”
"It's good if not." Tang Yuran said, silently relieved in his heart.
A year ago, Xu Ziqing personally said to Tang Yuran that his money did not come from Qin Kai, if it was really as Xu Ziqing said, then Wei Zhongwen's guess would not be true.
But this is just Xu Ziqing's words, whether the other party is telling the truth or not, she can't give a definite judgment, but Tang Yuran can be sure that Xu Ziqing is indeed a very face-saving person, and this kind of thing reaching out to her boyfriend to ask for money is not like what Xu Ziqing did.
"Ziqing told me before that the money she uses to buy luxury goods is all her own, and she also has a secret trick to make money, if it can help, you might as well check it on this line." Looking at Wei Zhongwen opposite, Tang Yuran spoke.
"Okay, we'll find out." Wei Zhongwen said and nodded solemnly. "Other than that, since you know so much about this diary, is there anything strange in the process of reading it?"
"Strange things... When you say that, there is. Tang Yuran thought about it, then picked up the diary and flipped through it. When I read the diary, I thought this place was out of place. ”
"Where?" Wei Zhongwen said, leaning over, trying to see what the other party said.
"This place. Ziqing said she had stumbled upon a secret. ”
I thought that this was the opportunity that God coveted me and gave me not only love, but also unparalleled wealth, but then I realized that I was wrong. I won't mention it a second time. ’
"What did Xu Ziqing find, what would make her feel that she was wrong?" Seeing the contents of the diary, Wei Zhongwen couldn't help but feel confused.
"I don't know, could it be related to Qin Kai? After all, it says, 'Not only can you harvest love, but you can also have unparalleled wealth.' Tang Yuran guessed.
"Not necessarily, these two things are not necessarily directly related. Perhaps, it will be related to the secret of making money mentioned by Xu Ziqing. Wei Zhongwen then asked: "As far as you know, did Xu Ziqing suddenly have a very poor time for a while, and even borrowed money from outside." ”
"It doesn't seem like there is... Ziqing is a very face-saving person, even if she is really short of money, she will definitely not let me know. ”
"If she really has an extra source of income, where will it come from?" Wei Zhongwen said as he fell into deep thought.
"I can't guess either." Tang Yuran said, looking helpless.
"There's something weird, though." Wei Zhongwen said, as if he had thought of something. Before Xu Ziqing wrote this paragraph, she had already discovered Qin Kai's derailment. But for some reason, the two of them didn't break up, but it was as if the incident just disappeared out of thin air, and there was no record of it anymore. ”
"So, in fact, is it possible that the 'love' mentioned by Ziqing is not Qin Kai?" Tang Yuran couldn't help but ask rhetorically.
"It's possible, but... Judging from the diary, after the showdown, the relationship between the two was not affected in the slightest, that is to say, Xu Ziqing is unlikely to have anyone else he likes. And the 'love' it mentioned should refer to Qin Kai. ”
"If that's the case, then there's another possibility, that is, after the showdown, the previous misunderstanding between the two people is resolved, so it's as if nothing happened." Tang Yuran boldly guessed.
"Can such a thing as cheating be completely turned over? If it were you, wouldn't you mind? Wei Zhongwen couldn't help but ask.
"Generally speaking, girls are more concerned about this kind of thing... It shouldn't be so simple to turn the page thoroughly, unless..."Tang Yuran seemed to suddenly think of something.
"Unless what?" Wei Zhongwen asked.
"Unless Ziqing finally finds out that she really misunderstood the relationship between these two people, or if Qin Kai is a victim, then there should be a possibility of forgiveness."
"Victims? This statement is a bit strange..."Wei Zhongwen said as he fell into thought. "In a relationship, how can you prove that you are a victim?"
"This... I didn't think about it. ”
"What if Qin Kai reversed, united with Xu Ziqing, and pointed the spearhead at the other girl? In this way, can you regain Xu Ziqing's trust? Wei Zhongwen boldly assumed.
"Theoretically, it seems that it is possible, if Qin Kai does this, it means that his heart is still on Ziqing's side, and Ziqing is likely to choose to forgive him."
"Then what did Qin Kai do to regain Xu Ziqing's trust?" The question was thrown again, this question was like a bottomless pit, Wei Zhongwen couldn't guess it.
"Could this thing Qin Kai do have anything to do with the 'wealth' mentioned by Ziqing?" Tang Yuran asked.
"I don't know yet, but judging from the existing results, Xu Ziqing finally planned to break up with Qin Kai because of Qin Kai's derailment, and it was after this that Xu Ziqing's diary was completely broken, and it didn't take long for Xu Ziqing to be found dead in the rental house."
