Traveling through: I rely on space to raise the sick Wei Wang

Chapter 137 Maybe It's Not Love Enough

By the river, two men, one gray and one blue, were burning paper money on the bank. In the dark night, the fire light entered the eyes of the man in blue robe, refracting the light like stars.

"Young master, burning paper money makes a lot of smoke and dust. If you smoke too much, it's bad for your health. Why don't you let the little ones come?"

The man in blue didn't even raise his head when he heard the sound: "No, I have to do this kind of thing myself, and no one can interfere. You go and wait, and don't come here without my order."

The servant in the gray slave uniform buzzed his mouth and wanted to say something else, but in the end he let him go: "Yes."

Xu Ruqing crossed her arms and looked at the man not far away, and asked Xuan Ye, "Who is he?"

"He's the man you're looking for."

Xu Ruqing understood Xuan Ye's words after thinking for a while: "Chen Shixi?"

"Ah."

Xu Ruqing rubbed her chin, there was really nowhere to look for, and it took no effort to get it. She had always been thinking about the person she was looking for, and now she delivered it to her door by herself.

But what she didn't expect was that this Chen Shixi was not what she had imagined. She had thought that a son from a famous family, not to mention being rich, at least had to be of good flesh and blood. Chen Shixi looks skinny.Because of his thinness, his cheekbones were arched high, and the masseter muscles on both sides were sunken, and he looked as if he would hang up in minutes.

"Xiulian, rest in peace. I've been sorry for you in this life, and I'll pay you back what I owe you in the next life..."

Chen Shixi burned paper money one by one in the brazier, his eyes were empty and numb, as if he had lost his soul.

The servant felt very uncomfortable seeing Chen Shixi like this, so he comforted him: "Young master, don't be too sad, Miss Xiulian will definitely hear your thoughts, and she certainly doesn't want to see you like this under the nine springs, So... my condolences."

Hearing that Chen Shixi's face finally changed, he looked at the colorful lotus-shaped river lanterns beside him, and seemed to sigh: "Put them all away."

"Yes."

The servant picked up the river lamp on the ground and lit the wick inside, and then put them into the flowing river one by one.Under the hazy night, the surface of the river was shrouded in a thin layer of mist, and the river lanterns drifted away along the water, sending thoughts to the innocent souls in the underworld.

Chen Shixi looked at the river lantern floating far away, fascinated.

Xu Ruqing leaned on a tree: "This Chen Shixi looks affectionate, but since he likes Wu Xiulian so much, why didn't he marry her?"

Xuan Ye who was behind him glanced at Xu Ruqing after hearing this, and frowned slightly: "I don't know."

The question was too profound for him, and he couldn't figure it out.

"You are a man, how could you not know that you are also a man?"

Xuan Ye pondered for a while when he heard the words, and then said in an instant: "Maybe it's because I don't love enough."

Xu Ruqing: "..."

This answer... makes sense!
After a long time, until it was completely dark, Chen Shixi stood up. He ordered his servants to put out the fire at Xingling, and it seemed that he was planning to go back.

"Duofu, let's go, we're going back."

"Yes."

Duofu went up to support Chen Shixi, because he was beaten hundreds of boards yesterday, he can't even stand up right now.

Xu Ruqing, who was yawning while waiting, saw that the two of them had finally made a move, and immediately rushed forward to persuade him to stay: "Mr. Chen, please stay."

Chen Shixi turned around when he heard the sound, and looked at Xu Ruqing with doubts in his eyes: "Who are you?"

"I am a good friend of Wu Xiulian during her lifetime, and my surname is Xu."

"My surname is Xu..." Chen Shixi recalled for a while, as if he had thought of something, he said, "You are Xu Ruqing?"

"Master Chen knows me?" Xu Ruqing was a little surprised. It stands to reason that this is the first time the two of them met, so Chen Shixi should not know him.

Chen Shixi couldn't deny it, and nodded: "Well, my father mentioned you to me, and he also said that you were looking for me recently because of the Xiulian matter."

Since she said it so straightforwardly, she said it clearly: "Yes, I have been troubled by some questions about Xiulian for a long time. I have always wanted to find a chance to ask Mr. Chen for advice. I don't know if Mr. Chen is free right now. , shall we take a step to talk?"

"Let's talk here. Miss Xu, if you want to ask anything, just ask."

"Okay, first question, when did Mr. Chen and Xiulian meet, Xiulian is pregnant with your flesh and blood, do you know about this?"

Chen Shixi looked up at the night sky, Xu Ruqing's words brought back the memory buried in his heart: "I met Xiulian two years ago, when we first entered a private school, she was very good at learning and also very strong. Among the friends in the same class, I have a special personality. Later she told me that she liked me, so we got together logically, and had several skin-to-skin kisses... As for the child, I only got married after she died. knew."

Xu Ruqing nodded and continued, "Second question, when was the last time Wu Xiulian met you?"

"I can't remember. It was about half a month before her accident. She told me that she was not feeling well and wanted to go home to rest for a while. I let her go without thinking much."

"Okay, one last question." Xu Ruqing took out the jade bracelet he picked up on the mountain before from his purse: "Do you know this thing?"

Chen Shixi squinted his eyes slightly when he saw this thing, and then shook his head: "I don't know, but this thing looks expensive, and the material should be high-quality jadeite ice. sent this."

Xu Ruqing was thoughtful after listening, and then smiled: "I have finished asking my questions, thank you Mr. Chen for your generous teaching."

"Where is it, I am just doing my best. I hope Miss Xu can catch the murderer as soon as possible, and give Xiulian justice."

"I will definitely do things to do justice for the heavens, Mr. Chen can rest assured about that."

"If that's the case, then I'll take my leave. Miss Xu, take care."

"Walk slowly."

Two figures, one gray and one blue, gradually disappeared into the night, until they were completely gone, Xu Ruqing asked Xuan Ye: "You have been observing for a long time, what did you find?"

"There were obvious scratch marks on his hands and neck. The initial judgment should be that he was injured by a woman's nails. Besides, when ordinary people are interrogated, even if they have not done anything wrong, they will be somewhat nervous, but he can not only The answers are fluent, and there are no flaws, as if you have expected you to ask these questions a long time ago."

Xu Ruqing nodded in agreement: "You're right, the more flawless the clothes, the more flawed they are. But there is another point, that is, I didn't say that this jade bracelet belonged to Wu Xiulian, but he subconsciously connected the bracelet with Wu Xiulian Together, it means..."

"He has seen this bracelet on Wu Xiulian's body, but he said he didn't know it. He lied." This is an affirmative sentence.
