"It's time. I have something else to do." Zheng Yan stood up and winked at Xiao Ke. "If you have any news about Lin Qing, please tell me as soon as possible."
"Okay..." Xiaoke nodded for some unknown reason, and when she came to her senses, Zheng Yan had already walked out of the coffee shop.
She stared at the paper cup across from her, not taking a sip of the coffee he ordered.
Strange, what does this person want to do with Lin Qing
Zheng Yan walked out of the coffee shop and walked for a while. He stopped and looked up at the gloomy sky.
It feels so good to be able to open my eyes and look at the sky like this.
The explosion three years ago was still fresh in his mind, and he could never forget the despair of being buried in the rubble. As soon as he closed his eyes, loneliness and darkness surrounded him, strangling his neck and suffocating him.
For three years, he had to sleep with the lights on every night and dared not sleep too deeply. As long as he relaxed a little, he would dream about the explosion that day. It was that explosion that left him disfigured and nearly killed.
Zheng Yan touched his face, his eyes showing a bit of ruthlessness. He didn't hate the explosion, it was something he had to go through in his job. But what he hated was that after the explosion, he was abandoned in the wilderness, and his boss never sent anyone to look for him.
That's right, his life is indeed insignificant compared to that man's power.
Zheng Yan withdrew his gaze and chuckled. Lin Qing did not come back all night yesterday. Something must have happened to her.
Coast One, inside the apartment.
Mu walked out the door and went straight to the sofa and sat down. The adjutant escorted Xu Yuan in from behind.
Xu Yuan didn't change his shoes. He stood at the door and looked around, smiling: "Mu Li, are you sure you want me to live here?"
Mu Li pursed his lips and was thinking deeply. He really didn't want to do this, but there would be hidden dangers wherever he put her. Only here, no one dared to approach her casually.
Besides this place, there is the Mu family...
No, if Xu Yuan is sent to the Mu family to be looked after, Mu Yonghao might ask him to divorce Lin Qing in a few days.
Mu Li also knew what Mu Yonghao meant. Aren’t those people waiting to pull him down with their eyes on him
But if he let those people succeed, he would not be Mu Li.
Once the Liang family’s affairs come to an end, all the things like underground lovers and miscarriages will be put aside.
After a long silence, Mu Li finally nodded: "Well, you stay here for the time being."
This was the first time Xu Yuan heard him say this. He raised his lips in self-mockery and said, "It must be difficult for you to look at me."
"You will stay in the guest room on the first floor. You are not allowed to go up to the second floor." Mu Li suddenly stood up, stepped over the coffee table with his long legs, and walked towards the stairs while looking at the adjutant, "Come with me to the study."
The adjutant glanced at Xu Yuan, as if worried that she would run away.
Mu Li frowned slightly and glanced at Xu Yuan: "Don't worry, she is definitely willing to stay here to seduce me."
Xu Yuan sneered somewhat at himself, then walked to the sofa and sat down.
The adjutant followed Mu Li to the study. As they walked, Mu Li asked, "How's the investigation going?"
"There has been no movement from the Liang family. It seems that they don't know that this group of people was transferred out by Liang Ruoyi." The adjutant paused in the middle of his report and looked at Mu Li's face. "In addition, there has just been news from the northern suburbs that they still can't see anything."
Mu Li's face darkened and he clenched his fists: "Check again! I didn't ask them to monitor just to hear this!"
He thought that as long as he sent enough people to lurk nearby, he could protect Lin Qing's safety. But now he was obviously wrong.
Even if his men had supernatural powers, they would not be able to take action if they did not know what was happening. Otherwise, their whereabouts would be exposed and all their efforts would be wasted.
They cannot make any move before the other party takes action. This was what Mu Li had instructed in advance.
The adjutant also understood the interests involved, but looking at the current situation, it was impossible to turn back even if he wanted to.
"I think Madam should be fine for the time being. Liang Ruoyi also knows the consequences of offending this side." The adjutant said this probably to reassure Mu Li.
A shadow fell on Mu Li's delicate face, and his dark eyes were deep: "No one else knows about Lin Qing, right?"
The adjutant nodded: "No, everything was done in absolute confidentiality."
Mu Li was relieved then. If someone with ulterior motives knew about this, they would probably target Lin Qing again.
The two of them walked into the study while talking. The door slammed shut and Xu Yuan stood at the corner of the stairs with a look of astonishment on his face.
What did you mean just now
Something happened to Lin Qing
No wonder Mu Li dared to bring her home. She couldn't figure it out on the way. If Lin Qing went home to see her, Mu Li would not be able to explain it even if he had a hundred mouths.
It seems that not only is Lin Qing in trouble, but Mu Li also knows where she is.
Xu Yuan just heard the adjutant mention the northern suburbs. Could it be there
She was shocked, and thinking of Zheng Yan's words, she immediately sent him a text message: "Lin Qing is in the northern suburbs, and may have been captured by someone."
Although she was not sure, it was not her business. Zheng Yan had only said that he would tell him when there was news, but as to whether it was true or not, he had to find out for himself.
Zheng Yan was on his way to Coast No. 1 and turned around immediately after receiving the text message.
Northern suburbs
It is indeed a good place for Tibetans.
Lin Qing had been in a coma, but fortunately the curtains were drawn to block the cold wind outside, so her body was not as cold as before.
Chen Qudong sat at the head of the bed and let Lin Qing lean on her shoulder. Half of her shoulder was numb but she did not move.
He had never thought before that staying with her like this would become a luxury, but what did he do wrong
He knew that Lin Qing and Mu Li's marriage was definitely not based on love, and maybe Mu Li had forced her. But why could she accept Mu Li but not him
Just as he was thinking about it, the door was suddenly pushed open. When Liang Ruoyi came in, she saw such a warm scene and was shocked all over.
"You just can't help it?!"
Chen Qudong frowned and glanced at Lin Qing: "You don't have to speak so loudly, I can hear you."
Liang Ruoyi really saw through this man. Could it be that he had forgotten what he said to her yesterday so quickly
"Are you feeling distressed?" Liang Ruoyi glanced at Lin Qing. The bodyguard following behind her was about to bring in something, but she glared back at him.
The bodyguard took several steps back with an innocent look on his face. He didn't do anything.
Chen Qudong seemed to remember what happened last night, and he curled his lips when he heard it: "Why should I feel sad? It's just that you woke her up and she will make a fuss again. Once she makes a fuss, you won't be able to have peace."
Liang Ruoyi then relaxed her tone and asked the bodyguard to bring the things in.
When Chen Qudong saw that they were two fast food meals, he noticed that it was already noon.
"Eat, these are all your favorite foods." Liang Ruoyi said as she looked towards the balcony. The curtains were tightly drawn and there was no sign that anyone had moved.
If Mu Li secretly sent people to guard everywhere and saw this scene, they would definitely report it. By then, when Mu Li heard that his wife was doing shameful things with another man in the room, would he still want Lin Qing
Even if Mu Li really didn't send anyone, she wouldn't suffer any loss.
Lin Qing, she must destroy this woman with her own hands.
Liang Ruoyi's mouth corners slightly raised, and her eyes showed a bit of arrogance and indifference. Chen Qudong could also guess what she was thinking, and at this time, in order to spend more time with Lin Qing, he pretended to be completely unaware.
The bodyguard put the food away and walked out. Liang Ruoyi walked to the bed and reached out to pull Lin Qing away.
Chen Qudong blocked her action: "Are you trying to wake her up?"
"You're going to hold her until she wakes up?" Liang Ruoyi was jealous and tried to push Lin Qing again.
"Liang Ruoyi, can you calm down a little? You're jealous of everything now." Chen Qudong lowered his voice, added a bit of questioning, and loosened his grip on Lin Qing's arm a little.
"Then tell me, is it comfortable to hold her like this?" When Liang Ruoyi gets entangled in one thing, it can be really annoying.
Chen Qudong also knew her temper, so he could only go along with her: "What's so comfortable about that? Don't you see what you've done? She won't drink milk on her own initiative. I can't just watch her not eat for a few days, can I? She's already fallen asleep. If you make trouble a few more times, will Mu Li let you go after she's sent back?"
As Chen Qudong spoke, his eyes swept across the milk cup. There was still half a cup left in the cup. Then he saw milk stains at the corners of Lin Qing's lips, so Liang Ruoyi believed it.
"Are you trying to protect me?"
"It's to protect you, and also to protect me." Chen Qudong didn't want to make his words too touching, as he knew Liang Ruoyi might not believe it.
Liang Ruoyi's eyes flickered, and she took back Lin Qing's hand: "Put her down and eat the meal first."
"Are you worried about me?" Chen Qudong raised his eyes to meet Liang Ruoyi's gaze.
She was worried, and no one could be worried in this situation.
Liang Ruoyi did not answer. She also sat on the edge of the bed and picked up a lunch box. Seeing that Chen Qudong had no intention of eating, she opened the lid and scooped a spoonful to feed him: "Eat it while it's hot."
Chen Qudong frowned and subconsciously wanted to dodge. Firstly, he didn't want Liang Ruoyi to feed him, and secondly, he was afraid that the liquid would spill on Lin Qing.
Liang Ruoyi handed the spoon to his lips and lowered her voice: "Adong, do you want me to tell you everything you did to her friend?"
Chen Qudong's eyes sparked and he didn't dodge.
"That's right. As long as you stay by my side and listen to me, I will never tell Lin Qing that it was you who killed Lu Xiao." Liang Ruoyi smiled with satisfaction and fed Chen Qudong mouthful by mouthful.
After feeding Lin Qing a box of food, Chen Qudong was already extremely uncomfortable. He hesitated for a moment and laid Lin Qing flat on the bed and gently covered her with a quilt.
"I'll go out with you." Chen Qudong stopped Liang Ruoyi who was about to go out and looked at the curtains. "Anyway, they are drawn. You can't tell how many people are in the room from the outside."
Liang Ruoyi paused in surprise. He knew everything
She didn't object. It was good that he was willing to go with her.
The two left the room. As soon as the door was closed, Lin Qing on the bed suddenly opened his eyes, with only shock and pain in his eyes.
She heard everything Liang Ruoyi said just now.
In fact, Lin Qing had vaguely heard the voices since Liang Ruoyi pushed the door open, but her eyelids were too heavy to open for a while. Moreover, she didn't want to wake up and face these two people, so she simply pretended to sleep.
If not for this, she would never have heard such a cruel truth. She had resented Mu Li for a long time because of this incident, saying that he was cruel and ignored him, but in the end it was Chen Qudong who did it
She still remembered the time when Chen Qudong went to the hospital with the so-called evidence and accused Mu Li again and again. At that time, she actually believed it.
She is so stupid.
Lin Qing thought of Lu Xiao who was still receiving treatment in the hospital, and could no longer bear it. She turned sideways, covered her face with her hands, and cried silently.
