Chapter 105 Boss Tao Qiang
"Then tell us about Li Mei in your eyes!" Cheng Feng guided Tao Qiang to speak.

"She is a very independent girl. Her aunt's house and my parents' house are neighbors. Xiaomei was only seven or eight years old when she was first taken to her aunt's house. I still remember her appearance at that time," said Tao Qiang. Her eyes became a little blurred, as if she was recalling Xiao Limei back then in her mind: "Xiaomei doesn't like studying very much, but she is beautiful and good at singing, so she has always dreamed of becoming a singer. Tai studied in school, but performed for people everywhere in City Y. Basically, wedding companies hired her to sing at other people's wedding and birthday banquets, and she was paid 200 yuan a time. Later, I went to other places to study, After graduating, I came to C City to do bar business. About two years ago, I went to another bar with my friends to learn from other people’s experience. I saw Xiaomei singing there. I think her situation there is not very good. , so I dug her here."

"What was her situation in the original bar?" Tian Yang asked.

Tao Qiang blushed a little: "Actually, it's not a big problem. It's just that I don't get along well with other singers. The relationship is a little stiff. Xiaomei's personality is relatively straight. She is not the kind of girl who knows how to compromise. I think she I don’t have a good relationship with my colleagues over there, so I just brought her here, which is better for everyone.”

Because Cheng Feng and the others had already heard about Tao Qiang's affection for Li Mei from Ali's mouth before, so after hearing Tao Qiang's explanation, they naturally knew the other meaning hidden in his words - —Tao Qiang's poaching is nothing more than wanting to take care of his sweetheart by his side.

Cheng Feng decided to be explicit and said: "Tao Qiang, you take good care of Li Mei, you must like her very much, right?"

Tao Qiang blushed completely this time, and turned pale again: "Yes, it's useless whether I admit it or not, isn't it!"

"Why didn't you tell Li Mei your feelings for her before?" Jiayi tested Tao Qiang: "Did you not have the courage to tell her, or did you fail to confess?"

Tao Qiang sighed softly: "Now I would rather fail in my confession! At least I still have a chance to let the girl I like for so long know my feelings for her, right! It's better than now, even if I have the courage to tell her , and she will never hear it."

"Why didn't you dare tell her?"

"Xiaomei is an insecure woman, and her feelings are always in flux," Tao Qiang said of Li Mei, his tone full of sadness: "She always doesn't know what she really needs, so I always find a sense of security from people who like her. Moreover, she likes handsome and strong men. I always know that I am not the type she can like, so I don’t want to embarrass everyone by saying it. It’s better to just guard her like this , can’t be with her, at least you can be friends and be by her side.”

"After Li Mei came to sing here with you, did she have conflicts with anyone?"

"No," Tao Qiang immediately denied Cheng Feng's question: "Xiaomei is a playful and playful girl. She gets along very well with other employees here. Everyone likes her very much! She has never married anyone. Enmity or conflicts!"

After a few seconds of silence, Tao Qiang suddenly remembered something: "Oh, by the way, there is a person, I don't know if it can be regarded as having a conflict with Xiaomei."

"It's okay, you say it, we will make a judgment."

"Xiaomei once had a boyfriend, and when she broke up with her, the quarrel was not pleasant. The man even drank and quarreled with me, but we persuaded him to leave later. I didn't hear Xiaomei say that the man continued. pester her." Tao Qiang recalled.

"I heard that Li Mei had many boyfriends before his death?" Jiayi interjected cautiously and asked, "Are you saying that this man was the most violent, or was he the only one who had trouble?"

Tao Qiang rubbed his temples: "Yes, I admit that Xiaomei is not very strict when it comes to making boyfriends, but apart from that one time, she really didn't have any other problems. The main reason is that that time Xiaomei really went a little too far , she made two boyfriends at the same time, but one of them found out, and couldn't get angry, so he ran to the bar to make trouble."

"It's very noisy?"

Tao Qiang nodded: "That man's temper is very hot, he quarreled for a long time, and finally the wine bottle fell on the stage. In the end, I had no choice but to ask the security to send him out. After a long time, I was Pick up Xiaomei personally, and only agree to let her come and go alone after confirming that the matter has really calmed down."

"Do you know the other party?"

"I don't know him, but for Xiaomei's safety, I asked someone to get some basic information." Tao Qiang said, "I just remember that man's name is Meng Degang, and he seems to be an individual boss. I can't remember anything else. But I can go back and look for it, and pass it on to you later!"

"You said that Li Mei fell in love with Meng Degang and another man at the same time, do you know this other man?"

"I don't know," Tao Qiang did not give another name as Cheng Feng expected: "I know that Xiaomei stepped on two boats because Meng Degang said it when he was yelling and making noise. I asked Xiaomei afterwards, But she said she was upset, so I don't care if I ask, so I have no choice but to stop asking."

"Then trouble you to provide us with the information about Meng Degang you have." Cheng Feng took out Feng Yuan's photo and handed it to Tao Qiang: "Do you know this person?"

"I don't know." Tao Qiang looked at it carefully for a long time, and finally shook his head: "Is this woman related to Xiaomei's case?"

"We are still investigating this. Please ask your staff if they have any impression of this woman. Her name is Feng Yuan." Cheng Feng handed Feng Yuan's photo to Tao Qiang.

Tao Qiang agreed, picked up the photo and got up to ask the busy staff in the bar, he came back a few minutes later, returned the photo to Cheng Feng, shook his head: "Sorry, I asked, no one knows this woman, should Not a regular visitor to our place."

"One last question," Cheng Feng took the photo: "Tao Qiang, where were you the night before yesterday? What did you do?"

After a little thought, Tao Qiang replied: "As usual, I came to the bar after two o'clock in the afternoon and stayed until nine o'clock in the evening. After Xiaomei's performance ended, I left. The employees of these bars can prove it. Later I went straight home, watched a video, and went to bed."

"Can anyone prove what happened after nine o'clock?"

"Yes, my girlfriend."

"Your girlfriend? Do you have a girlfriend?" Tian Mi listened quietly for a long time, and finally couldn't help it now: "Didn't you just say affectionately that you like Li Mei? Why? A girlfriend pops up?"

Faced with Tian Mi's question, Tao Qiang squeezed out a bitter smile: "Yes, I have different feelings for Xiaomei in my heart, but I know it's impossible for us, I'm not the one who can make her stay for me, and I I'm almost 30 years old, if the girl I love the most is doomed, then why don't I find a woman who loves me and treats me well, and live together!"

Cheng Feng thanked Tao Qiang politely, and the four of them left the bar.

"First confirm whether Tao Qiang is really watching DVDs at home with his girlfriend as he said the night before yesterday," Cheng Feng explained to Tian Yang: "After all, Tao Qiang is the closest to Li Mei, we have to start with him Excluded. In addition, call Li Mei's aunt tomorrow, and don't forget to ask about who will sign the body."

Tian Yang patted his chest: "You can rest assured and leave it to me!"

The days in winter are always short, and the sky has already darkened at this time, Cheng Feng asked Tian Yang to take Tian Mi back with him, have a good rest, and continue on Monday.It was the weekend, and Tian Yang's family lived far away. Seeing that it was difficult to find a taxi, Cheng Feng resolutely handed over the car keys to Tian Yang, and asked him to drive his sister home and send Jiayi off by himself.

"How is it? Are you hungry?" Cheng Feng asked Jiayi as he watched the Tian Yang brothers and sisters drive away.

It was only then that Jiayi remembered that at the end of the day, he hadn't eaten any rice except for the chicken porridge with mushrooms that Cheng Feng bought in the morning. Now that he was reminded by Cheng Feng, his attention returned to his stomach, and only then did he react. , It turned out that the dull pain that had lasted for a long time came from an empty stomach.

"Let's go, go eat. It would be better if you are hungry too. If you are not hungry, then go and accompany me!" Cheng Feng said to Jiayi with a smile.

Jiayi nodded, and the two of them walked side by side on the road when the lights first came on. Jiayi's mind had just been pulled out of the case, and at this moment the pain in his stomach became more and more obvious. Ice, stepping on it with one foot, the center of gravity is unstable, and the body is about to sit and fall to the ground.Thanks to Cheng Feng's sharp eyesight and quick hands, he grabbed Jiayi's arm and pulled her up, thus avoiding the tragedy of Jiayi's butt falling into eight petals.

Cheng Feng was afraid that she would fall again, so he simply took Jiayi's hand and continued walking. Jiayi felt uncomfortable, but the soles of the shoes were very slippery, and he was afraid of falling. In addition, Cheng Feng's hands were dry and warm, and she was a little bit reluctant Pull back your hand.

Taking a sneak peek at Cheng Feng, I saw his expression was natural, Jiayi secretly laughed at his pettiness, what a time it was, the roads were slippery in snowy weather, people helped others to cheer him up, why did he look like the old society like women.

Thinking about it this way, Jiayi no longer has useless worries.

Cheng Feng dragged Jiayi through the thin snow and walked past a row of exclusive stores. The figures of the two dragging their hands were reflected on the window. They looked so harmonious, as if they were a couple. Cheng Feng's There was a feeling of warmth in my heart, before I had time to think about it, I found that Jiayi's expression on the window looked very strange, his brows were furrowed, and he was extremely pale.

"What's the matter, Jiayi?" Cheng Feng hurriedly turned his head to look at the people around him.

After the sun went down, the temperature suddenly dropped, and the temperature at this moment was even colder than during the day, but a thin layer of sweat oozed from Jiayi's forehead.

"Are you okay? Jiayi, what's wrong?" Cheng Feng asked with concern.

Looking at Cheng Feng's worried expression, Jiayi squeezed out a smile and wanted to shake his head to say that he was fine, but just now he shook his head, but he felt that Cheng Feng's face was slowly darkening in front of him.

She passed out.
