Chapter 168 Is this retribution?
Shen Linfeng, who was sitting on the sofa, also saw this scene, his brows were furrowed and his face became more solemn.

Compared with his reaction, Qi Boyan looked unconcerned and held her hand with no intention of letting go. His pupils shrank slightly and he said calmly after a deep voice: "I don't think so, no one can." I don’t want something like this to happen to anyone, but since it has happened, isn’t what we have to do is to minimize the damage? It doesn’t matter what your attitude is towards me now, but you are sure to let me use it on Xie Jiuyi Have my thoughts shifted to you?"

Jian Chu squinted his eyes and said nothing, and his palms still felt obviously hot.

It was left behind after hitting him too hard.

She lowered her eyes and wondered what she was thinking.The heaviness of worry and thought was not seen at all.

Qi Baiyan's eyes were warm and his voice was low and deep: "Jian Chu, do you think your dissatisfaction with me is because I have been unwilling to let go and persuade Shen Linfeng to wait for you to find Xie Jiuyi before venting your anger on me? The most important thing at the moment is to find Xie Jiuyi. Jiuyi, what do you think?"

Jian Chu stopped talking, but was still very cold towards Qi Boyan.

In the end, Jian Chu didn't go over to sit down. She sat alone on the lazy sofa by the window, with a deserted face. Although it was very late, she didn't feel sleepy at all.

She asked over and over again in her heart, Xie Jiuyi, where are you?
When will her friendship with Xie Jiuyi begin?

Maybe it's the sympathy that warms the already lonely heart.

She was "assigned" to her grandmother by Jian's father and mother. She was not familiar with the place, but she didn't dare to resist. Until she met Xie Jiu, she was like a little sun shining on Jian Chu, and their friendship started from then on. It hasn't changed since.

Just like Xie Jiuyi said: "Jianchu, we want to be best friends and share everything except men."

So how could she not be anxious?
She wished that she had not come to Beicheng to see her, so that things like this would not have happened.

But she could do nothing but wait. This was what made Jian Chu feel the most torture.

She kept sitting with a sullen face. In fact, her body was very tired. She was trying her best to calm down and take a rest because of the baby in her belly, but her mind was very clear and she couldn't calm down at all.

The night was extremely long.

It was almost when the sky turned white that she leaned back on the sofa and closed her eyes and fell asleep. Qi Boyan covered her with a thin quilt and then slowly retreated to the restaurant.

Everyone barely rested. Shen Linfeng's eyes were even redder. Qi Baiyan said calmly: "It has been so long and the person has not been found. You should know what this means, so what are you going to do?"

Shen Linfeng lowered his head, his face still low and gloomy.

There was breakfast on the table in front of him, but he had no appetite and couldn't eat it.

It took him a while before he spoke: "Bo Yan, do you think this is retribution?"

retribution?

Qi Boyan frowned and asked indifferently: "Are you in love with her?"

"Is it important to love or not?"

"what do you think?"

"I went too far this time, so no matter what happens, I'm not going to let go."

He thought about the decision for most of the night.

That anxious feeling made him clearly understand what suffering was.

Qi Boyan asked: "Do you understand what it means to not let go?"

"Bo Yan, do you also think that I am just acting on a whim?"

"I don't think it matters. This is your business and your decision. But do you think the Zhou family will let it go?"

Shen Linfeng was silent.

The marriage between the Shen and Zhou families had been settled many years ago, but it was only in the past two years that Shen Linfeng and Zhou Wan got engaged.

Although they are engaged, the two do not live together. Even after their marriage, they play their own roles.

But having said that, once someone wants to end this marriage, it is no longer a matter between two people, but a matter between two families.

Qi Boyan picked up the spoon and drank the porridge, and glanced at him indifferently with his deep eyes: "I hope you are not feeling pity because of guilt that Xie Jiuyi might be hurt. You should understand that if you have such thoughts, no matter it is Neither you nor Xie Jiuyi can always accept it."

While the two were chatting, Jian Chu also woke up.

She glanced at the quilt covering her body, her expression indifferent and emotionless, then she lifted the quilt and got up from the sofa. She asked the villa servant where the bathroom was, and then went to wash up briefly.She looked at herself in the mirror. The dark circles under her eyes were heavy, her face was a little haggard, and her whole person looked listless and weak.

Jian Chu came out of the bathroom after washing up. As she walked out, she suddenly heard people talking in the quiet corridor: "I heard that Miss Xie was taken away by an idiot. Do you think there will be any accidents?"

"Keep your voice down, sir, don't let me hear you."

"I don't know what Miss Zhou came over to say to Miss Xie yesterday? Otherwise, why would Miss Xie jump off the building and leave? It was raining so heavily at that time. Hey, I don't know how it is now?"

The discussion between the two servants reached Jian Chu's ears clearly and word by word.

She squinted her eyes slightly, her eyes filled with coldness.

She walked towards the direction where the sound came from and saw the servants talking at the corner of the corridor. When the servants saw her, they were also stunned and nodded quickly and wanted to leave.

Jian Chu asked aloud: "Who is the Miss Zhou you just talked about?"

The two looked at each other and dared not speak.

She added: "Do you want to say it yourself or should I ask Shen Linfeng to come over and ask you?"

One of the servants pursed his lips and looked hesitant, then said calmly: "Miss Zhou is Mr. Zhou's fiancée, Miss Zhou Wan, the eldest daughter of the Zhou family."

Jian Chu's eyes were sharp and she asked, "Did she come here to see Miss Xie yesterday?"

"Mrs. Qi, please stop asking. We won't be able to do this job if you keep asking."

"Don't worry, I won't tell you what you revealed. I won't tell you what you should do. But if you don't tell the truth, I won't hide anything."

Jian Chu's expression was gentle, but his tone and words could not be ignored.

The two servants looked at each other, and then responded quickly: "Miss Zhou came here suddenly. She said she was here to take the documents to the company for Mr., so we didn't think much about it. As for whether we said anything to Miss Xie. We don’t know either, we just vaguely heard some arguments, but we didn’t hear the content clearly, so..."

"Okay, I understand, you go and do your work!"

Jian Chu's face was cold and expressionless. She knew Xie Jiuyi very well. Although he seemed indestructible on the outside, he was very fragile on the inside and would be broken with just the slightest blow.

Xie Jiuyi's sensitive mind is caused by the environment in which he grew up, and he probably won't be able to change it in his life.

So she used her lively and bold appearance to make herself look as strong as an iron wall, but in fact she was not at all.

The more I think about her, the more uncomfortable I feel.

She pursed her lips and walked straight out of the villa without stopping. She took Qi Boyan's car keys at the entrance and heard the sound of the car. Only then did the two men in the restaurant know that Jian Chu drove away.

Qi Boyan also immediately got up and walked out, asking the servant who was cleaning the yard: "What happened?"

"Mr. Qi, Mrs. Qi drove away without saying anything."

Qi Boyan's face was very gloomy. He frowned tightly and then took out his mobile phone: "Jian Chu drove out from Shen Linfeng's place. You will have someone follow her immediately to see where she went?"

Shen Linfeng also followed out and asked, "Is there any news?"

"I don't know, but there must be something going on when Jian Chu suddenly leaves."

His solemn face did not relax for a long time, and his deep eyes were covered with layers of mist.

She didn't have the slightest trust in him.

This made Qi Boyan helplessly and bitterly smile.

Because it rained all night in Beicheng, it stopped almost at dawn. The air in the morning was particularly good, fresh and cool.

Although it's almost November, it's not too cold today.

Near lunch time, a black Mercedes-Benz parked at the entrance of Yinze Village.

Jian Chu came down from it and walked straight in. The guests immediately came to greet her: "Mrs. Qi, do you have an appointment?"
