three desperate women

Chapter 106 Unexpected Funeral

Hu Bingqing, dressed in black and wearing sunglasses, walked into the Chrysanthemum Hall, a private room on the second floor of the Bincheng Hotel. This was the third funeral she attended this year.

The first scene was her husband Bi Jing, the second scene was her classmate Jiang Yitian, and this one was Lu Zhiqiang who hadn't met a few times.

Because Lu Zhiqiang didn't have a body to be cremated and buried, Meng Qingshan had no choice but to hold this grand funeral for his old friend for many years at the hotel.

The entire venue was full of voices, but it became a grand exchange event for commercial enterprises from all walks of life in Bincheng. They were drinking and talking happily, and by the way, they mourned and recalled the famous names that once caused a sensation in the city.

Hu Bingqing sat at the corner of a banquet table and ate a lot of delicious food. The food at the Bincheng Hotel was pretty good.

She was tired from eating, so she sat there drinking a drink, scanning every guest, some she knew, some familiar, and a few old friends.

Her former partner, senior brother Gao Xin walked towards her with a glass of red wine smiling, she just glanced at her, didn't move or get up.

"Junior sister, are you still angry with me? Then senior brother toasts you with a glass of wine and apologizes to you. I hope that your lord will ignore the fault of the villain, and we will reconcile as before, how about it?"

"Hey, senior brother, but I don't dare to be a junior sister. I consider myself noble, and I don't want to go to Chengzhi's Gao Zhi'er with you.

It's because I have blind eyes. I don't know that Director Gu has really made a fortune. Director Lu disappeared just right. You have been promoted from a nominal partner to an executive partner. Congratulations, senior brother.

I'm not an adult, you know whether you are a villain or not, if I hadn't been invited by Boss Meng, I'm afraid you wouldn't even see me, how could I have such an honor to let you toast to me.

Recently, junior sister is feeling unwell and can't drink alcohol. She feels like throwing up if she doesn't drink alcohol. If she drinks, she may vomit on you. Senior brother, I'm sorry, I'm going to the bathroom, excuse me! "

"Hu Bingqing! You"

Gao Xin's face was turned blue and red by Hu Bingqing, and he cursed some ugly words behind her.

Hu Bingqing didn't give him any face, and walked away with her bag.

She left the treacherous villain there, walked out of the Chrysanthemum Hall alone, and then walked into the bathroom of the Bincheng Hotel.

"The fox pretends to be a tiger, the scolding rat pretends to be merciful, the weasel has no good intentions to pay a chicken New Year's greetings, a snob who looks down on people with a dog's eyes! Damn, I'm so pissed off!"

While rubbing her hands under the faucet, she scolded Gao Xin fiercely.

"Honey, you're rubbing your hands so hard that your hands are going to break!"

Hu Bingqing was so involved that she didn't even pay attention to the people coming next to her. She was really shocked when she heard someone talking.

She looked back with a pale face, and saw an extraordinary woman next to her, about 50 years old, with neat short hair, delicate and smooth skin, exquisite makeup, matching earrings and necklaces, both of which were black.

The woman was wearing a gray dress, with a fat body, but she looked elegant and rich, but her hands were extremely clean, without a watch, ring, or manicure.

The woman smiled at her with a neat row of teeth and a sweet smile. She was a few years younger than she looked, and Hu Bingqing felt that the woman looked very familiar.

"Hehe, I'm sorry to scare you! I'm so sorry!"

The woman apologized and turned on the tap to wash her hands.

"No, it's fine."

Hu Bingqing took out two paper towels from the box on the wall and wiped the water on her hands.

"Are you from Chengzhi Law Firm?" the woman asked as she took out the paper and wiped her hands.

"No."

She shook her head, took out a tube of hand cream from her bag, opened it and squeezed out a little on the back of her hand, turned her head to look at the woman and said:
"Will you rub some? Rose scent."

The woman looked at herself and nodded with a meaningful smile:
"Oh, yes! Thanks dear!"

The two of them were rubbing hand cream together, and the woman looked at her again after wiping and said:

"It tastes good, refreshing and not greasy, what brand is it?"

"Ou Shu*, sister, do you like it? I just opened this one. If you don't dislike it, I'll give it to you!"

"Really? Is it okay? I'm so sorry, I like the smell of flowers very much!"

The woman was not polite at all, she held it in her hand, looked at it, opened the lid again, put it under her nose and smelled it.

"It smells so good. I just saw you talking to Gao Xin, and I thought you were together."

"Whoever is with him is a villain who sees profit and forgets righteousness!"

"Hehe, you are really sincere, you are not afraid that I will tell Gao Xin that you will speak ill of him!"

"I think sister, you don't seem like the kind of gossip. Besides, didn't you accept my gift?"

"Hahaha, you are such an interesting person!"

"What's so interesting! To put it bluntly, it's heartless! However, I will say the same in front of him, and I won't hide it."

"a!"

The woman gave her a thumbs up, and Hu Bingqing waved her hand in embarrassment, and the two walked out of the bathroom together.

"Sister, do you know Gao Xin too?"

"Hehe, I'm not familiar with you.

You call me sister?do i look that youngDon't lie to me! "

The woman smiled even wider, and she looked very friendly. She finally remembered who this woman was!

"You're not old, are you 50 years old? I'm forty, I can't call you sister!"

"This little mouth is quite sweet. After accepting your gift, I have to return it to you!"

"Oh my god, my sister! A hand cream is not worth a lot!"

"Do you know who I am?"

"That's necessary! Although I'm not a flattering snob, I'm still a person who has seen the world!"

"Hahaha, Lawyer Hu is really smart!" The woman said with a warm and hearty laugh.

"Thank you Mr. Zhuang for your compliment, but it's better to call my sister more kindly? Isn't that right? Sister Zhuang also recognizes me?"

"Of course, your black material is more famous! Hahaha, it's a pleasure to meet you!"

The person in front of him, Zhuang Mingyu, the person in charge of Jiuxian Group, a well-known enterprise in Bincheng, is smiling and extending his hand, looking at Hu Bingqing.

She was embarrassed, and then stretched out her hands excitedly. The two shook hands, looked at each other and smiled.

"Nice to meet you!"

"This is my business card, come out and sit down when you have time?"

"That kind of gathering of rich and famous ladies should not be suitable for a vicious widow like me!"

"Hahaha... No wonder Lao Meng likes you so much, you are such a rare and lovely person!"

"Ah?" Hu Bingqing's eyes widened in surprise.

"It's always okay to drink coffee together, right?"

"Okay, I still like coffee, thank you sister!" She immediately took it.

"Lawyer Hu, I still have something to do, let's go first!"

"Goodbye, Mr. Zhuang!"

"Goodbye, add WeChat!"

"Well, walk slowly."

Holding a business card in her hand, Hu Bingqing watched Zhuang Mingyu walk into the elevator slowly.

As soon as the elevator door closed, she carefully put the business card into her bag.

"Little Hu!" Meng Qingshan's sonorous voice sounded behind him.

"Hey!" She agreed and turned around quickly.

"Why are you here, I've been looking for you for a long time!"

"President Meng, I'm sorry, I went to the bathroom just now."

"Oh, avoid? Knowing that you don't like this kind of occasion, you have to come again."

Hu Bingqing bowed her head in silence, then raised her head and asked:
"Boss Meng, what do you want from me?"

"Let's talk in my car!"

"Alright."

The two stood together in the elevator room, and after a while, led by Meng Qingshan's two bodyguards, she walked into Meng Qingshan's Maybach.

"Mr. Meng, is it okay to not be at the venue? Everyone should be here for you!"

"It's okay to leave for a while."

"Has Meng always discovered something?"

"That's right, but I mainly want to ask you about the murderer of Lao Lu. What progress have you made?"

"As far as I know, the suspect has fled overseas and smuggled there, and we guess he will change his appearance, and there is no need to return to Bencheng."

"Then there's no way to catch him back?"

"Not yet, unless he returns to Bincheng, but it's unlikely!"

"It's Lu Shaoqing?"

Hu Bingqing looked at Meng Qingshan and said nothing.

"Ying'er said it. She should be able to believe that although Lao Lu doesn't see his daughter often, he still loves her very much."

"Lu Yinger and Lu Shaoqing are classmates, and they are fairly familiar."

"Yes, this makes Ying'er even more sad, her father was killed by her friend, but now she accepts this reality.

It's just that we just can't understand why Lu Shaoqing killed Lao Lu so cruelly.

Is it because of the improper relationship between Lao Lu and her mother?It's not a crime to die for! "

"Our guess is that his mental state is not very good, he is very extreme, and he is a natural aggressor."

"Pervert?"

"Almost, he enjoys the process of killing in his bones, and now I can only understand his killing behavior in this way."

"Hey! He's such a good kid, it's said that he's disfigured?"

"He was the same before he was disfigured, and it got worse after the disfigurement!"

"Really, you can't see through people's hearts!"

"Mr. Meng, is Gu Xincheng here too? Didn't you see him?"

"Come here, I arrived a little late, and said I have something to do. I saw him before I saw you."

"Ah."

"How did you mention him? Are you interested in him? Is he not a good person?"

"Boss Meng, why did you say that?"

"Hey, it's not good to speak ill of people behind their backs. I made a slip of the tongue just now, but I can only advise you to stay away from him."

"Then isn't the business of your dream group all from Chengzhi?"

"That was when Lao Lu was there, now that Lao Lu is gone, our contract is about to expire.

oh?Lawyer Hu, do you want to dream? "

"Of course! You once said that if I help you find Lu Zhiqiang, the dream will be mine! You really are a noble person who forgets things!"

"Hahaha...I will recommend you at the shareholders meeting, but we still need to bid!"

"No problem! Does Mr. Meng really have nothing to say about Gu Xincheng?"

"I really don't have much contact with him. He has been trying to get close to me, asking us to renew our contract and want to continue to cooperate. I have always prevaricated by holding shareholders' meetings to discuss!"

"why?"

"I am also 60 years old. I dare not say that I have seen countless people, but I always feel that Gu Xincheng is a bit sanctimonious, and mysterious, and his words are mysterious. I don't like it."

"Then why do you think Lu Zhiqiang wants to partner with him?"

"Old Lu told me that it was thanks to Gu Xincheng's advice and care that he took the road of being a lawyer. Old Lu knows how to be grateful, and he will repay everyone who has helped him.

You told me before that you suspected that he was very violent and might have domestic violence or something. In fact, I didn't really believe it, but his temper is indeed not small.

I also asked Yinger if she had seen her father beat her mother when she was a child, and she said that she had never seen it in her memory. "

"Lu Zhiqiang may not have beaten their mother and daughter, but Tianyuan, that is, Lu Shaoqing's mother, also suffered domestic violence. Now we cannot determine whether it is Lu Shaoqing's father Lu Jiang or Lu Zhiqiang.

Moreover, Li Tingting, who is Lu Zhiqiang's third party, indeed went to see a doctor because of being beaten, and she was also beaten during Li Tingting's pregnancy.

Mr. Meng, are you familiar with Huang Jin?Is he a trustworthy person?What is his relationship with Lu Zhiqiang!do you know where he is "

"It's pretty familiar, Huang Jin also came today, but I don't know if he's gone now, let's go up and see later!
Huang Jin is Lao Lu's soldier, I think he can be trusted, he will never harm Lao Lu! "

"If only I could ask him about Lu Zhiqiang."

"As far as I know, the police have already asked, and they probably didn't find anything!"

"Really? Well, wait until I get back and ask."

"Little Hu, the matter of Lao Lu has troubled you, and it has nothing to do with you."

"Mr. Meng, you're going to kill me by saying that, and I'm too helpless. If I hadn't set my sights on the fat meat of Dream, who would want to get involved in such a dangerous thing."

"Xiao Hu, I know that you wanted to compete with Gu Xincheng for the business of Dream Group for the business of the law firm.

And later, it was indeed for the belief in my heart, and this is what I admire most about you.

You are outspoken, sincere and kind, and have ideals in your heart. You are a rare person who can live a transparent life. I make no secret of my liking for you. "

"Mr. Meng, is he going to sing me a hymn?" After Hu Bingqing finished speaking, the two of them laughed together.

"President Meng, it's time to go up!" A bodyguard knocked on the car window, and Meng Qingshan opened the window to look at him.

"Little Hu, shall we go up together?"

"I won't go up, I don't have anyone to see."

"There's a lot of fat on it!" Meng Qingshan smiled and looked at her.

When Hu Bingqing heard it, there was a thud, and the two laughed together again.

As soon as Meng Qingshan returned to the venue, he picked up a glass of red wine handed over by the waiter and walked slowly to the banquet. Everyone who saw him stood up and toasted him.

Hu Bingqing walked silently with the bodyguards behind him. After Meng Qingshan talked and laughed happily with others, he would turn around and recommend her to the guests. She greeted her with a smile, holding a glass of wine, shaking hands and nodding frequently.

Hu Bingqing looked down at her high heels, hating why she didn't choose flat shoes, her feet hurt and her legs cramped.

In the end, I finally finished the task, collected a lot of business cards, and sent out several boxes. Not to mention, the mobile phone rang immediately.
She greeted Mr. Meng and decided to leave first. She was really tired and her waist was sore. Fortunately, she didn't drink, otherwise she really couldn't go home.

"Little Ice!"

"Hey, Uncle Hou."

"It's really you! I didn't even dare to guess it was you, don't you care how much you don't like this kind of occasion?

Okay, I get it now.No, the dream group hasn't won yet? "

"Isn't it, hard bones, not easy to chew."

"Are you going abroad for the Chinese New Year? Why don't you go to my house for the Chinese New Year? You feel sorry for Bala."

"Down, I'm with my friends, your house must be full of traffic, so I won't go, thank you Uncle Hou, I'll keep it in mind!"

"Okay, it's up to you, I know you don't like excitement! I have to go."

"Goodbye, Uncle Hou."

She walked slowly to the elevator room, and was about to go to the underground garage to pick up the car, but found that her sunglasses were missing, and she found nothing after searching her bag.

She reckoned that she should have landed on the table in order to escape from Gaoxin.

She had to go back again, looking for the sunglasses, and when she came to the table, the sunglasses were still there.

She picked up the sunglasses, turned around, and caught a glimpse of a familiar figure, and then she looked at the center of Cunju Hall motionless.

There is a chrysanthemum wall, with Lu Zhiqiang's black and white photos in the middle, and a man and a woman standing in front of them hugging each other.

The girl was wearing a black gauze dress, with long hair draped over her shoulders and a small white flower on her head, and she was crying in the man's arms.

The man patted the girl's back lightly to comfort her. Perhaps the man found someone looking at him, so he turned his head and saw Hu Bingqing standing there, with a surprised expression on his face.

Hu Bingqing waved to Gu Ruofeng, tilted her head and smiled lightly, then put on her sunglasses, turned around gracefully, and strode out of the Chrysanthemum Hall
