Chapter 123: All Evidence Destroyed
Because of Huo Shiyuan in the middle, the good news is that Lu Man successfully forgot what happened in the taxi today, and the bad news is that her mind is full of Huo Shiyuan.
She couldn't remember what time she went to bed, lying on the bed, looking at the light coming in through the crack in the door, knowing that Huo Shiyuan was still in the living room, she felt a sense of peace of mind for no reason, and fell asleep in a daze after a while.
The next day, when she heard a knock on the door and was about to open it, she found that Huo Shiyuan had already gone to open the door.
He didn't look like he stayed up late, if he hadn't seen him at work in the middle of the night last night, Lu Man would have wondered if he had slept earlier than himself.
"Who's going to come early in the morning?" Lu Man muttered to himself, picking up the gripper and grabbing his hair to prepare for breakfast in the kitchen.
But when she saw the person at the door, she couldn't walk, and immediately sobered up: "Senior brother? What are you doing here? ”
If it was in the past, Li Cheng would have replied to Lu Man, but now, he stared at Huo Shiyuan, and the pajamas and slippers on his body, as well as his casual and natural expression, as if he had been struck by lightning in disbelief.
"Why are you here?!" His hands holding the lunch box trembled a little.
Today he got up early, made a breakfast and planned to bring it to Lu Man, and went to work with her by the way, originally he thought about what topic to talk to Lu Man, but who knew that it was Huo Shiyuan who came to open the door?
He was wearing pajamas, and what happened last night seemed to be self-evident, and the process was unacceptable: "Long man, what's going on!" ”
"Last night?" Huo Shiyuan didn't expect it to be Li Cheng, but it was in his arms.
He leaned lazily against the door frame, like a man, and glanced at Li Cheng with disdain, not understanding why he was so angry: "Of course I spent the night at her last night, is there any problem?" This is Lu Man's home, and it's her right to let whoever she lets stay here, right? ”
It's just that looking at Li Cheng's sarcastic eyes, it seems to be saying: Why didn't Lu Man let you spend the night here? Reflect on your question.
Li Cheng was shaken by Huo Shiyuan's angry hands, and he didn't believe a word of Huo Shiyuan's words.
He looked at Lu Man and stubbornly wanted a truth: "Manman, is what he said true?" What the hell was going on last night! ”
He believed that Lu Man would never let Huo Shiyuan spend the night here for no reason.
I'm afraid that something is going on in it.
Li Cheng bypassed Huo Shiyuan and walked in front of Lu Man, his tone of questioning was a little trembling, for fear of hearing Lu Man say the answer he didn't want to hear.
"Manman, did he force you to let him stay here last night? You two don't really have anything, do you? ”
Fear, unwillingness, and sadness all came to his heart, as if he had knocked over the five-flavor bottle, and Li Cheng felt as sad as a knife without taking a breath.
Lu Man didn't expect Li Cheng to have such a big reaction, but she still told the truth about what happened yesterday: "Huo Shiyuan is just worried that I won't be able to sleep at night, so I stayed here, and he slept in the study." ”
But about what happened when she got up in the middle of the night to pour water, Lu Man didn't mention a word.
When Li Cheng heard half of it, his anger was gone, replaced by concern and self-blame and chagrin.
He didn't care about being angry with Huo Shiyuan, he nervously pulled Lu Man's hand, his eyebrows wrinkled tightly: "It's all my fault, I was called to dinner by my colleagues after work yesterday, and I forgot to ask if you were home......
Yesterday there was a storm, lightning and thunder, and he should have asked about Lu Man.
He usually asks, but he forgot about it at dinner yesterday, but it was yesterday, and something happened to Lu Man!
This time, let Huo Shiyuan pick up such a big bargain, Li Cheng's intestines were about to regret it.
"Fortunately, you have nothing to do, and I'll send you back after work." Li Cheng was afraid that Lu Man would change his opinion of Huo Shiyuan because of this matter, so he protected her behind him as if she were a personal belonging, and thanked Huo Shiyuan: "Mr. Huo, this time it is okay, thank you, if it is convenient for you one day, I will treat you as a thank you gift." ”
This was said as if Lu Man was his personal belongings, and Huo Shiyuan was speechless when he heard it.
"You don't need to invite me to dinner, Lu Man can invite me." He ruthlessly broke Li Cheng's careful thoughts, looked past him and looked directly at Lu Man, and asked accurately: "Lu Man, you won't invite me to dinner, right?" ”
"Please, then definitely please, that's as it should be." Lu Man almost gritted his teeth and said, what a door-picker, he is so rich, he actually let her have a treat?
"That's okay," Huo Shiyuan hooked the corners of his mouth, glanced at Li Cheng proudly, and didn't stay too long, but before leaving, he successfully added to Li Cheng's blockage: "Don't bring others when you invite me to dinner, you have to thank me alone for this." ”
Looking at Li Chengcheng's black face, Huo Shiyuan laughed twice and went to the company satisfied.
——
On the other side, Jiang Yuan had also learned the news that the driver had missed, and she simply 'missed' and broke a glass: "Missed? How can you miss it? Haven't I done all the preparatory work? ”
Qingxiu's little face was full of anger, her eyes were crazy, and she was a little terrifying: "What a waste!" That guy won't give me a confession if he misses, right? ”
Although he was angry, since Huo Shiyuan had saved people, he would definitely take advantage of the situation to investigate.
What followed was even greater fear and panic, she packed up her things a little, and prepared to go to Huo's to find out.
Huo Shiyuan didn't stay at Lu Man's house too much today, precisely because the assistant told him that the results of the interrogation had come out.
Seeing Huo Shiyuan come out of the elevator, the assistant greeted him and reported: "Mr. Huo, the driver said that he didn't know anything." That person seems to be a master, and his sense of anti-investigation is very strong, and the evidence has almost been erased. ”
Because nothing was found, the assistant didn't dare to raise his head, for fear of seeing Huo Shiyuan's death gaze.
But even so, the huge pressure still made countless beads of sweat appear on his forehead instantly, and he tied his head lower: "I'm sorry, Mr. Huo, we tried our best." ”
"So now you're going to tell me that nothing has been found?"
This was indeed the case, but the assistant did not dare to answer this, avoided the topic and continued to report: "The driver said that he only received a phone call, did not see the person, and used a voice changer. We also checked that number, but it was an empty number, and we couldn't find any relevant information. ”
It seems that the man has been doing this a lot, but I don't know which of the company's nemesis.
The assistant thought about the company's business competitors in his mind, but he had no clue.
And the real culprit is secretly standing outside the office door eavesdropping.
