Falling tonight

Chapter 166 There are still doubts about the matter

Zhu Min recalled, "They asked me to drive to a house in the mountains. It was very late at that time, and I didn't remember the road very well, but I remembered that there was a big stone lion outside the house!"

Zhu Min's words were completely different from the ending that Zhao Shijin told Zhao Rou. Zhao Rou pricked up her ears and listened carefully while feeling grateful at the same time.

Fortunately, I didn’t hear what happened to the mass graves…

Mu Zhou asked at this time, "In the mountains? Where is it? Didn't those people escape to a gambling house in the east of the city?"

Zhu Min was stunned for a moment. She didn't know why Mu Zhou would ask this, "Is it a gambling house? There isn't one. I remember they got off at a house in Dashan, but if you ask about the location... this, it took too long. It was still night. , and I’m not familiar with Asia City, so I have no impression of it at all. However, the two lions at the door are very big and spectacular. They are extraordinary at first sight. They are quite eye-catching at night. I took a few more glances. I remember this relatively clearly, it doesn’t look like a gambling house or anything like that.”

Mu Zhou's voice became colder, "Are you sure you're not lying? Your son is still in our hands."

Mentioning his son Zhu Shui, Zhu Minjie became a little nervous. He bent forward, unable to support the ground because his hands were tied behind his back, and his whole face fell on Mu Zhou's feet. His posture was awkward, "Mr. Mu, sir, I don't have anything." What a lie!”

"I just get paid to do things. I dare not ask more. I was worried about being silenced by them after I sent them back, but they got off the car and left as if they had received some urgent order. No one cared about me. I was afraid of causing trouble. , I drove back to City B all night, if I lied I would be struck by lightning and die!"

This oath is quite serious.

The more Mu Zhou listened, the tighter his eyebrows became.

Different.

The development of the matter described by Zhu Min is different from what his father Mu Xianshan revealed.

After the accident that year, his father Mu Xianshan immediately sent people to capture those who kidnapped him and interrogated them one by one. According to their confession, they were employed by the boss of a gambling house in the east of the city. The boss owed a huge sum of money before he thought of creating the crime. The kidnapping case was an idea to get a large ransom from the Mu family.

At that time, although the Mu family made a lot of money, they had not yet reached the peak of their business status in Asia. It was common for business opponents and people in the underworld to secretly interfere with their business.

This was Mu Xianshan's explanation of the matter in front of Mu Zhou.

That night, his father found the owner of the gambling house and dealt with all the people involved in the kidnapping in front of Mu Zhou, and the matter ended.

The matter was handled with almost no suspicion.

"What details do you remember? Think of it." Mu Zhou nodded and ordered Zhu Min at his feet.

Zhu Min raised her head, looked at Mu Zhou with her mouth open for a while, and smiled bitterly, "Mr. Mu, I really don't remember the rest. It's been too long. Even the details... that's right!"

Mu Zhou's eyes turned cold.

"When someone answered the phone in the car, I heard him shout... Mr. Han?"

Mr. Han?

Mr. Han?

Mu Zhou's pupils shrank sharply and his breathing quickened.

A pair of Rouyi held his dry palms. Mu Zhou looked sideways and saw Zhao Rou standing beside him, giving him a calm and gentle look.

Mu Zhou calmed down and glanced at the ground with a gloomy look.

"You'd better remember what you said today. I will come to you again. If I find out that you deliberately fabricated it, your family in City B will not be safe."

Zhu Min was shocked, "No, no, I didn't lie a word!" "Xiaojiu, arrange him well." Mu Zhou ordered Xiaojiu.

"Okay, Mr. Mu."

Seeing that Mu Zhou was about to leave, Zhu Min spoke urgently, "Mr. Mu, where is my son? Please don't embarrass him! He is innocent!"

Mu Zhou pulled Zhao Rou out of the basement without stopping, turning a deaf ear to Zhu Min's roar behind him, leaving only darkness behind him.

In the villa on the second floor, white gauze curtains cover up the strong light outside. The clean and tidy room is empty and quiet, and a low and magnetic sound can be heard in the room.

"Why are you crying all the time?"

On the single sofa in the room, Mu Zhou sat on his lap with the woman in his arms, feeling helpless and distressed. He put one hand around her waist and raised his other hand to touch the tears that overflowed from the corners of Zhao Rou's eyes.

Zhao Rou looked at Mu Zhou steadily, unable to control the sourness in her heart.

What kind of fate is this?

After a brief encounter ten years ago, the two people reunited in this way.

Zhao Rou couldn't suppress the crying in her voice, "I asked my dad and he told me that when he sent people to find him, the boy was already in the mass grave and was bitten by wolves."

When she had just confirmed Mu Zhou's identity in the basement, she suddenly wanted to cry. The person she had been feeling guilty about for ten years was actually right in front of her.

But how could she reveal her emotions in front of Xiaojiu and Zhu Min.

Once she returned to the private area that belonged only to the two of them, she could no longer control her emotions and burst into tears.

"What nonsense is this? The story is a bit exaggerated." Mu Zhou couldn't laugh or cry.

His hand on her waist went around her back and patted her softly and delicately.

After waiting for a long time, until the sobs in his arms became quieter, he let out a long sigh and pressed his lips to the corners of her eyes that were still full of tears, "I really didn't expect that the little girl who came to save me alone was you. …”

"I'm useless, I didn't help you with anything, and in the end I escaped by myself..."

"Are you still feeling guilty now? Why are you still as stubborn as you were back then?" Mu Zhou chuckled, thinking about how to enlighten Zhao Rou from simply blaming herself.

"You, a little girl, came to me with nothing. There are evil people in that place, and you still want to save me. You just have the courage to do so. At that time, I didn't dare to expect you to save me. I thought I would say some cruel words to you and make you angry so that you could leave and find help, and I would still have a chance to escape."

Zhao Rou was dumbfounded and wiped away her tears, "So you meant those ugly words to me at that time?"

"Of course, I asked you to leave but you insisted on saving me. You almost quarreled with me and attracted them. I had to say some cruel words to you to make you escape first. I just didn't expect you to be so crazy and just jumped out of the window. Jump down."

Speaking of this, Mu Zhou suddenly remembered the night she was set up by Han Zihao. She was also so crazy and didn't take her own life seriously.

Mu Zhou suddenly felt very lucky that she could survive the two falls safely. It was not easy to come back to him in circles. He held her tighter in his arms.

"Have you never looked for me from behind?" Zhao Rou tilted her head and looked at his clear jawline. Her voice was soft and aggrieved from crying.

Mu Zhou lowered his head and looked at Zhao Rou, his eyes becoming complicated.
