Chapter 56 The So-Called Mistake

"Father-in-law! Father-in-law! I...I know I was wrong. I really love my wife, but I fell for that woman in a moment of confusion. Father-in-law, please..."

But no matter how Huang Haoran begged, Qiu Zhixin didn't even look at him.

I stood there, unable to advance or retreat. Qiu Zhixin occasionally raised his head and saw me, his cold face changed instantly, and a peaceful smile appeared at the corner of his mouth immediately: "Wei Ling is here, come quickly."

He waved at me, and I sighed and walked over.Ever since Huang Haoran heard my name, he stopped making a sound, knelt there, motionless, his back stiffened.

I respectfully called out: "Mr. Qiu." Then I sat down.

Huang Haoran lowered his head, I couldn't see his expression, but I can imagine how humiliating the expression on his face must be at this moment.

Qiu Zhixin poured me a cup of tea, and then looked at Huang Haoran: "Why don't you ask? Huh?"

He asked easily, but Huang Haoran suddenly tightened his shoulders.

"Yue...father-in-law..." Huang Haoran muttered, and then fell silent.

Seeing that I was holding the teacup but not drinking it, Qiu Zhixin asked with a smile on his face, "Why? Doesn't it taste right? This is a very good Longjing tea."

I smiled apologetically: "I'm used to drinking coffee. I'm not used to drinking tea."

Qiu Zhixin understood: "It's a pity to lose this cup of good tea." After speaking, he actually took my cup, raised it to the top of Huang Haoran's head, tilted his hand, and poured the tea on Huang Haoran's head.

Huang Haoran was trembling.I saw that his hand resting on his knee had already formed a fist.

so humiliating—

Qiu Zhixin didn't take it seriously, returned the empty cup to me, and said to the waiter at the side: "Exchange this lady for a cup of coffee."

Huang Haoran finally couldn't control himself, stood up abruptly, and rushed towards Qiu Zhixin. He was about to grab Qiu Zhixin's collar, but at this moment, the bodyguard who had been standing behind rushed forward and grabbed Huang Haoran.

Huang Haoran didn't even touch his former father-in-law's hair before he was punched to the ground by the bodyguard.

When Huang Haoran was framed out by the bodyguards with his face covered in blood, he did not forget to yell: "The one named Qiu! And you! The one named Lin! I want you all to die!!!"

Qiu Zhixin poured himself a cup of tea, sipped it carefully, and sighed softly, "It's zero, I'm laughing at you. Our Qiu family actually recruited such an uneducated guy."

I sighed in my heart, kept my face calm, and changed the subject: "Why didn't Mr. Qiu attend the board of directors as we agreed?"

"The board of directors is really boring, not as attractive as my tea."

What he said was high-sounding.

I can only guess, but I don't want to be the one who guessed right: "Is it because of... Hu Xin? She contacted you?"

He smiled, smiling, as if acquiescing.Even so, he comforted me in turn: "Zero, don't worry, I will stand by your side. The Hu family is almost dead, we all know this very well."

In this meeting, Qiu Zhixin has been "playing Tai Chi" with me, pretending to be false.But the shares surnamed Qiu have already been sold to me, so even if he doesn't help me, he won't take Hu Qianyu's side.

Of this, I can be sure.

*******
I originally planned to meet He Wancheng after meeting Qiu Zhixin, but recalling the scene where he appeared with Hu Xin at that time, I dismissed this idea.

He Wancheng's title of "Old Fox" is indeed well-deserved. He never said clearly who he wanted to help, which made people troubled.

However, when He Wancheng introduced Li Huize to me at the beginning, I thought he was just perfunctory to me, but now that I think about it, the Li family was indeed against the Hu family.And Li Huize is really useful to me.

He is too complicated, I can't deal with it, so I can only put it aside for the time being, and don't bother me any more.

After drinking tea with Qiu Zhixin until evening, he invited me to dinner again.And said that her daughter would also come.

"You are about the same age as my daughter, so it's good to enlighten her."

enlighten?How to enlighten?Her disastrous marriage was made by me. "The cat cries and the mouse fakes mercy"?I hate hypocrisy, but at the same time, I find that I am the most hypocritical one.

In the middle of the dinner, Ms. Qiu came late.She is a beauty, but she is extremely emaciated.I can only sigh that she loved a man who was not worthy of love.

After dinner, when I got home, it was already evening, when the lights were first on.

I didn't ask Xiao Liu to open the door, I took the key to open the door myself.

There is no light in the living room, but there is light in the kitchen. Xiao Liu is probably cooking soup and waiting for me to come back to drink.Without turning on the light, I walked across the corridor to the kitchen.

Although I don't like her eyes staring at me all the time, her cooking and massage skills are really good.With her, my life would not be so deserted.

When I got to the kitchen, I was about to go in, but when I heard the voice inside, I had to stop.

"Well, yes, three meals are eaten on time, but..."

"...I still don't have a good appetite...I follow the nutritionist's recipes. Okay, okay, I will pay attention."

"I video chat with Mr. Li every day... nothing special... Oh, by the way, they seem to have had a fight today."

"She hasn't come back yet. Okay... If she hasn't come back by the time, I'll let you know..."

An ominous premonition gripped me.Her voice pierced my ears one by one.Obviously, the volume is not loud, but it almost penetrates my fragile eardrum.

I stayed behind the door until she ended the call.

When she came out of the kitchen, she bumped into me, trembled, froze for a moment, and then hid the phone behind her back.

"You're back! I..." Her voice was raised and her smile was stiff.

I looked at her coldly: "Who were you calling just now?"

She shuddered convulsively and stared at me in astonishment.

"It's okay, tell me. I also want to know who cares so much about my diet and daily life." I tried to be gentle in my voice so as not to touch the bottom line of her fear.

She bit her lip and slowly lowered her head, not daring to look at me.

I sighed, approached her, and patted her on the shoulder: "I won't blame you."

She still refused to speak.

I thought of another possibility. She might not be afraid of my blame, but rather... I continued: "I won't let the person who asked you to watch me know about this matter."

"..." "He gave you money? Did you? Tell me who this person is. In this way, you can not only receive the money he gave you as usual, but I will also pay you extra."

"..."

"Double? How?"

After I finished speaking, she was finally willing to look up at me and stammered: "Really...won't let the boss know?"

"boss"?She called that man "Boss"?It seems that I guessed right.

"Don't worry, no."

The light in her pupils flickered: "But... I promise the boss, I can't say anything."

"Don't tell me, that's fine. Give me your phone."

"..."

"Don't worry, I won't call him, and you don't have to tell me who your boss is. If I know his number, I can check it myself. In this way, you are not in breach of contract."

My persuasion was successful.She gave me the phone.

I quickly called up the call log.This number seemed very familiar to me, so I quickly took out my mobile phone and compared them one by one in the phone book.

Result: This number, belongs to, Tony.

******
I looked at the mobile phones on both sides, froze for a moment, and couldn't help cursing: Bastard!
Just then, my cell phone rang.The phone rang, and it sounded extremely ear-piercing in the extremely quiet space.Xiao Liu shrank his shoulders in shock from the ringtone.

I looked back at her, handed her back her phone, and then went to the corner to answer the phone.

This call is from an unknown number.I picked it up with a bad tone: "Hello?!" "For...for zero..."

All my anger collapsed in an instant.this voice...

"I'm Lucy." She announced her family name cowardly.

I always feel that her voice, like the lingering doom, bothers me.

"What's the matter?" I heard myself asking in a dull voice.

"I...I can't say more...In short, go to Hengsheng International Hotel on Orchard Road, Room 3918!"

Her tone was so tense, and she seemed to deliberately lower her voice.

I was puzzled, but I didn't believe it. I rubbed the eyebrows that were still frowning: "Lucy, I don't have time to play with you."

"This is about Hu Qian's life! It's not for fun!"

Hu Qianyu!Hu Qianyu!All over the world, that's the last name I want to hear.I don't even want to hear, this name, said from Lucy's mouth.

I took a deep breath and prepared to hang up the phone.

Xiao Liu watched me for Tony—I haven't finished dealing with this troublesome matter.

"Don't hang up! Please, it's zero... I've caused him enough misery, I can't... I can't..."

"The reason. Tell me the reason. Otherwise I won't go." I made the condition, because I really don't have time to deal with these crap things that make me confused.

"..." She didn't speak.

I was about to reconnect when she suddenly cried with great urgency: "Hu Qianyuhe is dating a second-rate female star, and... is going to have a room..."

Hearing this, I couldn't help laughing, and the laughter reached Lucy, and in an instant, Lucy yelled hysterically: "That woman has HIV! AIDS!"

My smile froze on my face, and then I sneered in disbelief: "Do you think I'm an idiot? Or, are you driven crazy by Hu Qianyu's disloyalty?"

She stopped talking.

Crying again.She cried to my distraught.

Then I warned myself not to believe any word of this woman, not to mention, what she told me, HIV, AIDS... Huh, it's just a fantasy!

I can completely classify her hysteria as: she was really driven crazy by Hu Qianyu, a big player.

But at this moment, she suddenly said very lightly: "It's true..."

An almost mournful voice.

Lucy had never spoken to me in that tone.

*****
I don't know what I was thinking, my mind was blank, and when I realized it again, I had already rushed out of the room, ran downstairs, staggered to stop the car with my painful ankles, and sat on it.

Call Hu Qianyu.It was reminded that the owner of the phone was turned off, so I didn't care about other things, why Lucy didn't go by herself, but wanted to call me and asked me to go; I didn't care how Lucy knew the news that was almost a joke.

I only have the time to call the driver: "Hurry up! Hurry up!!!"

The traffic jam along Orchard Road is serious, and the nightlife is full of traffic. I heard myself screaming at the driver: "Is there another way?!"

"This is a small traffic jam, and the road will be cleared soon. At most 5 minutes."

The driver comforted me.

I was going crazy, I didn't care about other things, got out of the car, and shuttled through countless seams.

Pain in the ankle, like a needle point is irritating the bone.I threw off my high heels and rubbed the corners of passers-by.

Keep running.

Messy hair obscured his vision.

When I finally arrived at the lobby of Hengsheng Hotel, there was only one thing in my mind: room 3918, room 918...

The elevator hadn't descended to the ground floor yet, so I couldn't wait, so I tapped the elevator keypad hard.People around me looked at me strangely.I do not mind.

When I entered the elevator, I stared straight at myself reflected in the wall mirror: my face was flushed, but my lips were pale as snow.

He ran all the way to the door of the room, knocked on the door, and there was a knock.

No one answered the door.

Keep knocking, louder.

A passing waiter stopped and asked me if I could help.

I ignore it and knock again.

The door finally opened.

Hu Qianyu.

He had a hotel towel around his waist and his hair was wet.

Seeing me, he completely petrified.

Without any scruples, I ran up and grabbed his arm: "That woman... did you, did you touch her? Ah? Did you?!"

He reacted and immediately laughed.

I couldn't ask anything from him, I shook his arm and rushed into the suite.

Go straight to the bedroom.

The woman on the bed, naked—

Seeing this scene, there was a "bang" in my brain, and something collapsed in an instant.

When I came back to my senses again, I had already pounced on that woman, with all my weight on her body, pulling her hair, screaming like a lunatic: "Did you let him go?"

The woman screamed and kicked under my hand.

A brute force, a pair of iron fists, embraced my waist from behind, and lifted me from the bed.

"What are you doing?" the iron-fisted master yelled at me.I refused to hear it, and as soon as my toes touched the ground, I slapped the woman who slipped out of bed.

"Bitch!! You killed him!! You killed him!!!"

At the end of the scolding, my voice became hoarse and I couldn't say a word.

Those arms finally let go of me, and I slipped to the ground, with my hands resting on the carpet, trembling uncontrollably.

At some point, someone squatted in front of me, "Zero? Zero?"

My vision blurred and I looked up.The face in front of me, in my blurred vision, gradually merged with the face that sneered at me at the door of the room when I rolled down the stairs.

I saw clearly that this was Hu Qianyu.

I waved and reached out, trying to grab my hand.Get up and slap him.

Crisp applause.His face was turned sideways by me.

I wiped away the tears all over my face, and in my heart, a voice rang out over and over again: It is he who wanted to die by himself, don't blame me.It's him who courted death, don't blame me...

This slap, really, shattered everything before.The man in front of me is no different from a dead person to me now.

Why be mad at a dead man?Not worth it.

Wiping away my tears, I walked around Hu Qianyu and left.The moment he passed by, he grabbed my wrist.

"What do you mean?" he asked.The tone is light and calm.

"..."

"I always come here for no reason and disturb my sight. Lin Weiling, what are you trying to do?"

I turned around, looked at the woman who was scared by me and hid in the corner, took a deep breath, and answered him more calmly: "I'm really sorry to bother you. I will leave immediately."

After leaving the hotel, I wandered in the middle of the street, barefoot and in a panic.

Lin Weiling, today can be regarded as a real splash.

Finally, I couldn't walk anymore and fell to the side of the road.There was a lot of traffic, the street lights were graceful, and countless car lights flashed past my eyes.Gradually, I calmed down.

Stand up again and move forward again.

Go home and call Lucy.

I have doubts in my mind.

Why didn't she personally stop her husband from having sex with a dubious woman, instead of telling me the news?

And how did she know that that woman had such an unknown hidden disease?
The phone went dead.Lucy still refused to answer.At the beginning of the call, the voice prompts that the owner is busy, and then repeated calls, and finally, Lucy simply turned off the phone.

Obviously, Lucy was avoiding me.
