"Xiaoyu, you're back."
He greeted him with a smile, but what he got in return was Mu Yu's indifference. But he was not discouraged. When he saw her glance at the bathroom, he immediately said softly with a flattering look, "I'll get you a bathrobe."
Mu Yu still ignored him and walked to the locker room on his own.
"Xiaoyu..."
He followed for two steps and saw that she was completely treating him as an invisible person. He had to stop in frustration. After thinking about it, he quickly turned around and ran into the bathroom, carefully adjusting the water temperature for her and filling the bathtub.
Mu Yu entered the bathroom before the water in the bathtub was full. He hurriedly handed the towel to her with a smile.
She didn't take his towel or look at him, she just said "get out" coldly.
He bared his teeth, put the towel aside and walked out with his head hanging down.
"Did you call the police?"
When he was about to reach the door, he heard Mu Yu ask, and he immediately turned around, only to see that her back was still facing him. He sighed and softly said "Yeah."
She sneered before speaking: "Don't you have too many worries? Why did you call the police again?"
"Because... I don't want to lose you." This was really what he said from the bottom of his heart.
Her back straightened slightly, but she still didn't look back, and she didn't make a sound for a while.
He thought there was a turn for the better and was secretly happy, but he didn't dare to make a mistake and tried calling her name softly.
"I'm going to take a shower, please get out."
He didn't expect that she would say such a sentence for a long time. He was a little discouraged, but he didn't say anything more, turned around and dragged his heavy steps out of the bathroom.
Mu Yu walked to the door with his head lowered, locked the sliding door, and pressed the switch on the glass wall at the same time, then turned and looked outside.
At this time, Qin Jinhuan had sat down by the bed and was looking blankly at the bathroom - the glass wall between them had pressed the switch. Now she could see his every move, but he couldn't see her.
She walked slowly to the glass wall and looked at him steadily.
Suddenly she found that he seemed to be much more haggard all of a sudden, and her heart felt inexplicably painful again.
If it weren't for that message, she and he would have been lying on the bed until they fell asleep hugging each other.
It's a pity that there are no ifs in the world, so we can't pretend to be deaf and ignore its existence.
Although she knew that the person who sent her the anonymous message had bad intentions, she was still grateful to him for letting her know the truth.
Even if the truth makes her so painful, she has no regrets because she is not good at deceiving herself and others.
He couldn't blame others. If he wanted to blame, just blame him for his cleverness.
Even if Dong Wanqing survives, she still despises him for forcing Qin Wentao and Dong Yueyun to leave Ancheng in this way, because he regards her and her children as bargaining chips instead of loving her and their children from the bottom of his heart. Many things are more important than her.
The reason why her heart hurt so much was not only because she still loved him deeply, but also because she resented him.
Standing on the rooftop, she really didn't think about jumping down, because she was not that fragile, not to mention her parents were still alive. She couldn't let her parents be disappointed in her because of her disappointment in love and marriage.
She just wanted to go there so that she could face everything in front of her more clearly and see Qin Jinhuan's character better.
Under her coercion, he reluctantly chose to call the police. He was about to bring Yin Anran to justice and seek justice for her children. However, she was not at all happy, and her heart felt like a huge stone was weighing on her. Generally heavy.
She turned around and walked silently to the bathtub. Without taking off her clothes, she stepped in and completely submerged herself in the water. It took a while before she sat up.
The feeling of suffocation is really unpleasant.
She really couldn't imagine the pain Dong Wanqing felt when she fell from such a height to the ground.
Dong Wanqing was not a bold and paranoid woman, but she dared to attack the police and run away, and even took them to the rooftop with a knife. Only then did she truly understand Dong Wanqing's despair and resentment at that time - being ruthlessly abandoned by her aunt and uncle, and being wrongly imprisoned. The person who put the blame on her was living happily outside, and the person who had wronged her was covering up everything. She didn't know how he would treat her. She couldn't see any stars in her future. Death was the best relief for her. , but she was unwilling to die in vain, so she wanted to take the people she hated with her and die with her.
Dong Wanqing is very pitiful, but her situation at this time is not much better than Dong Wanqing's situation at the beginning.
The most painful thing in the world is the deception and hurt from the person you love the most.
Dong Wanqing chose to commit suicide for relief, and once everything was over, she should be as decisive as Dong Wanqing, but her decisive relief was not to commit suicide, but to completely separate from Qin Jinhuan - if she left him and no longer loved him, maybe her heart would not hurt so much.
Mu Yu, don’t be soft-hearted, let alone do unnecessary self-deception. Only separation can minimize the mutual harm between you and him, maybe...
"Bah, bah, bah", the knock on the door was accompanied by Qin Jinhuan's voice: "Xiaoyu, Rong Jian called you."
Only then did he remember that he had called Rong Jian before, and Mu Yu suddenly turned around.
"Want to help?" he asked cautiously outside.
"No need." Mu Yu responded while quickly standing up and rinsing, drying the water on his body, putting on his bathrobe and going to open the door.
Qin Jinhuan was still waiting at the door with her mobile phone. When he saw her coming out, he immediately handed it over.
She took the phone without looking at him, turned around and went into the bathroom again, slammed the door shut again, and then called Rong Jian back.
"Sister-in-law, are you asleep?" Rong Jian's voice was hoarse from staying up all night, and also contained a bit of apology.
"Didn't sleep. Can't sleep either."
"Oh. Then, can you come out and have a chat with me?"
She replied: "Where are you? I'm going to find you."
"Are you at home?"
"exist."
"Okay, I'm almost at your house. Let's chat in the yard later."
"Okay. I'll go down right away."
Mu Yu hung up the phone, wiped the water stains that had not yet been wiped off, then opened the door and went out, quickly walked to the dressing room, changed into simple going out clothes, and went out directly. From beginning to end, she never glanced at Qin Jinhuan, who was standing in the middle of the room.
As soon as she arrived in the courtyard, she saw the servant opening the courtyard door and a car slowly driving in. Knowing that it was Rong Jian's car, she quickly stepped forward to greet him.
The car stopped somewhere, and Rong Jian turned off the engine and got out of the car.
"Team Rong!"
"Sister-in-law! I'm disturbing you so late, I..."
"It's not to mention disturbing, I wanted to find you in the first place." Mu Yu said while pointing to the pavilion on one side, "Let's go over there and chat."
Rong Jian nodded, followed her footsteps, and asked softly: "Sister-in-law, you called me before to ask about Dong Wanqing's case, right?"
"I want to ask Qin Jinhuan about calling the police." Mu Yu didn't want to beat around the bush in front of Rong Jian.
Mu Yu called Qin Jinhuan by name, which made Rong Jian slow down slightly, and then quickly stepped forward. After Mu Yu sat down, he slowly answered: "Ah Huan confessed to me about Dong Wanqing at night. He said that he would take legal responsibility for this matter. I was shocked. If Ze Yu hadn't stopped him, my first thought was to hold those who violated the law accountable. After coming down..."
Mu Yu, who had just fallen asleep, suddenly sat up again: "Are you going to cover them?!"
Rong Jian sighed deeply, took out a few things from his pocket and placed them in front of her.
Mu Yu saw clearly through the light that they were four work passes, and couldn't help but be a little surprised: "Why do you have so many work passes?"
"This is my work permit. The remaining three are Xiaofan, Li Feng and Proud. They violated discipline and I neglected my duty. Tomorrow morning I will accompany them to confess their mistakes to Director Gu and accept the punishment of the organization together with them. If Bing's leg injury hasn't healed yet. I hope you can take care of her more for me after I leave."
Mu Yu was surprised: "You, you want to resign collectively?!"
Rong Jian smiled bitterly: "This is not called resignation, it is removal from office. Not only will you be removed from office, but you may also be imprisoned."
"Jail?!"
"Well. It's possible that not only Xiaofan, the others, and Yin Anran will go to jail, but Ah Huan may also face jail. Sister-in-law, you have to be mentally prepared," Rong Jian let out a long sigh, "Everything has not gone well for Qingtian recently. Grandpa's health is deteriorating, and it is no longer possible for him to return to Qingtian to play a major role. If Ah Huan is involved in a lawsuit, Qingtian will probably fall into the hands of Qin Wentao and Dong Yueyun. Grandpa's life's hard work may be wasted. Grandpa will definitely If you are pissed to death by them, you will definitely not be able to rest in peace.”
His words made Mu Yu's whole body go cold and he froze.
"It's impossible for me to handle those perverted murder cases again. When I go back later, I will sort out the details of the case that I have and hand them over to you as soon as possible. Sister-in-law, I can only rely on you and Ru to handle this case from now on. It’s freezing, thank you for your hard work.”
Mu Yu lowered his head and was silent for a while, then sighed. When he spoke again, his tone was a little soft: "Captain Rong, this matter is over, or let it..."
"No! If you make a mistake, you should be punished!" Rong Jian obviously guessed what she was going to say and immediately waved his hand to object, "Sister-in-law, I didn't come to you so late to persuade you to give up on redressing Dong Wanqing's case. On the contrary, I also I want Director Gu to make the truth about this case public. I just want you to be mentally prepared to take the lead. I know you are capable, but I don't trust others, for fear that an unjust, false, and wrongful case may occur if I am not careful. , like Yan Xiaobing, KiKi and Ru Bing, thanks to your carefulness, they were cleared. "
Mu Yu didn't expect Rong Jian to say that. He was shocked and waved his hands repeatedly: "No, no, no, Captain Rong, you overestimate my ability. I'm just a little forensic doctor."
"Stop refusing, you have to believe in yourself!"
“Team Rong…”
"I came to you for another thing," Rong Jian interrupted her. "Xiaofan and the others are thinking about it in the bureau now, and are planning to wait until dawn to go to Gu Bureau to confess. They all feel that they are too embarrassed to face it. You asked me to bring you a message."
"What words?"
Rong Jian stood up and took two steps to the side, then bowed deeply to her and said the words "I'm sorry" very sincerely.
Mu Yu was startled and jumped away in a hurry. At the same time, he asked in shock: "Captain Rong, what are you..."
"They asked me to bring this to you. They don't have the shame to apologize to you in person."
"I can't blame them for this."
"I really can't blame them entirely. I mainly blame me for neglecting my duties."
"No, Captain Rong, that's not what I meant, I..."
"Sister-in-law, please take good care of yourself. Grandpa will have to work hard for you to take care of him in the future. But don't worry, I will ask Yingying to come and help you. It's already very late. I have to go back to the bureau to sort out the case. I have to go Come on, go back and rest." After Rong Jian finished speaking, he walked towards the car.
Mu Yu watched blankly as he got into the car and left, feeling as confused as a lump in his heart for a moment.
She walked alone in the huge yard for a long time, until the dawn of dawn, she woke up from a dream, turned around, ran back to the house, changed her clothes, and rushed downstairs like a fly.
