Chapter 270: Exhaustion
At this time, Zhou Qi couldn't help but think of the scene in the hospital, when she was lying on the hospital bed, her eyes were red and swollen, her face was as pale as paper due to blood loss, and she was so fragile that it seemed to shatter at the slightest touch.
Zhou Qi's heart ached, and he raised his hand to touch her, but finally put down his hand in despair. He knows very well that time, the medicine, only heals the superficial pain. There was a deep chasm between them, and he was excluded from her erected atrium, unable to come any closer.
He stood in front of the couch for a long time, retreated to the window, took out a cigarette, lit it, and smoked it.
Jian Yi didn't fall asleep for long, waking up after two hours. She didn't expect to fall asleep, and sat up from the couch at once. When I picked up my phone and looked at the time, it was close to five o'clock, and it was still dark outside when it was late in winter.
Her eyes fell on Zhou Qi, who was sleeping on the sofa, then looked at her coat, got up gently, opened the door and went outside.
At this time, the clubhouse is extremely quiet, especially on this floor. She washed her face in the bathroom with cold water, forcing her still dazed brain to wake up quickly.
When he returned to the private room again, Zhou Qi had already gotten up and was talking on the phone. Jian Yi's movements unconsciously lightened and sat down on the sofa.
It didn't take long for Zhou Qi to finish the call, and there was still no news from there. But it's not a good thing, but it's not a bad thing either. At least they can know that people are controlled by them, otherwise they can't have no news at all.
He put away his phone, was silent for a moment, and said, "I'll send you back to rest first, and I'll notify you as soon as there is news." ”
Jane Yi was haggard, she barely rested all night, her eyes were blue, and her face was not very good.
Jian Yi shook her head, she knew that Zhou Qi also had to go to work, no matter how anxious she was, it was not appropriate for her to stay here all the time. So he said, "No, I'll just go back by myself." After a slight hesitation, she asked, "Will he be okay?" ”
"It shouldn't be anything, those people didn't mean to hurt him."
Jian Yi nodded, thanked him again, and left.
It was drizzling outside, and the winter wind was blowing on my face as if I had been cut by a knife. She had just come out of the warm ground, and she couldn't help but shrink and tighten her coat.
At this time, the car was not easy to fight, and Jian Yi stood on the side of the road for a long time without stopping a car. She looked at the time and was about to try it at the intersection in front of her, when Zhou's car stopped in front of her. He lowered the window and said, "Get in the car, I'll drop you off." ”
Jian Yi was silent for a moment, but still opened the door and got into the car.
Although it was not yet light, there were already sanitation workers cleaning the road on the side of the road. The breakfast shops on both sides are already open for business. In the dim light of the street lamps, the people on the morning shift were in a hurry, and their insensitive faces were wrapped in scarves or hats.
Neither of them spoke along the way, and Jian Yi didn't know what she was thinking, so she kept looking out the car window. When the car was halfway through, Zhou Qi suddenly stopped, dropped a sentence and asked Jian Yi to wait for a while before unbuckling his seat belt and getting out of the car.
He came back quickly, only five or six minutes later, carrying steaming soy milk and piping hot buns in his hands. He handed one to Jian Yi and said, "Eat something to warm up." ”
I've been running around outside last night, and my stomach is already empty by this time.
Jian Yi didn't expect him to stop to buy breakfast, so he was slightly stunned, took it, and politely said thank you.
She didn't move the buns and soy milk in her hands, but Zhou Qi ate them while driving the car. After eating a bun, he didn't see any movement from Jian Yi, and asked, "Don't you have an appetite?" ”
Jian Yi shook his head, said no, picked up the bun and began to bite it.
It was only six o'clock when Jian Yi returned home, and she went to take a hot shower to wash away the exhaustion on her body. She obviously didn't have the heart to go to work today, sorted out the work at hand, and called Luo Yu to inform her that she was going to take a day off today.
Now is a sensitive period, Luo Yu immediately asked her what happened.
Jian Yi didn't hide it from her, and said that her father was missing.
Luo Yu gasped and asked if she wanted to help. Jian Yi said no, he was already looking for it.
Luo Yu couldn't help in this matter, so she didn't insist anymore, let her be busy with her, she didn't have to think about the company's affairs, she would deal with it.
Jian Yi agreed, and told her what she had at hand today, Luo Yu wrote it down, and then she hung up the phone.
Although she didn't know where to find someone, Jian Yi didn't wait at home, and went out after hanging up the phone. I'm going to go over there and drive the car back first, and then look around to see if I can get any clues.
This day was difficult for Jian Yi, she searched outside for a day, and also asked around with the photos of those people, but there were no clues.
In the evening, he dragged his tired body back home, and when he got out of the elevator, he saw Peng Tongyuan standing in the corridor. He had apparently been here for a while, looking at the time from time to time.
Jian Yi stepped forward quickly and asked, "Why are you here?" ”
Seeing her, Peng Tongyuan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I can't get through to call you, and I asked Luo Yu to know that you didn't go to work today, so I came over to take a look." ”
Jianyi's mobile phone is out of battery and has been charging intermittently in the car. Peng Tongyuan probably made the call when her mobile phone was turned off.
Jian Yi explained that the phone was out of battery, and then quickly took out the key to open the door and let him enter the house. It was cold in the hallway, and they both breathed a sigh of relief when they entered the room.
Because of the proximity, Peng Tongyuan came over from time to time. He was familiar with this place, so he went to pour two cups of hot water before Jian Yi, handed one to her, and asked, "Have you eaten?" ”
Jian Yi shook his head and said no.
"Do you have any food at home?" Peng Tongyuan said and went to the kitchen, Jian Yi wanted to get up to help, he didn't let her, let her rest for a while, he just came.
Jian Yi didn't take the initiative to tell him about her father, and Luo Yu wouldn't interfere. So Peng Tongyuan didn't know. He was busy in the kitchen for a while, and after the food was served, he asked, "Why didn't you go to work today?" ”
Jian Yi didn't want him to worry, but after hesitating for a while, he still said it simply.
Peng Tongyuan's heart was heavy after hearing this, anyone who put Song Wei and such a father on the table was desperate and powerless. He wanted to comfort Jian Yi for something, but in the end he only told her not to worry too much, those people were just asking for money, and nothing would happen. Then let Jane Yi eat.
