the knife of love

Chapter 124 Meet and reveal the truth to her
On Tang Jingcheng's mobile phone was a text message from an unfamiliar number: "If you want to know why your father had an accident, come out and see me. I'm at the cafe in front of your community. Don't tell anyone."

Tang Jingcheng was invited to leave.

It was dinner time at that time, and there were no customers in the cafe. As soon as she entered, she saw Ye Tan sitting by the window.

Tang Jingcheng walked over.

"You sent the text message?" There is no good attitude.

Ye Tan didn't mind at all, raised his head to look at her, and stirred the small cup of coffee in front of him: "Yes, I sent the text message, you sit down first."

"I don't have time, what do you know? I'll leave after I finish speaking."

"I don't care about this little time. Besides, it's not convenient to talk standing up. You should sit down." It was rare for Ye Tan to talk to Tang Jingcheng with such a good attitude.

Seeing her eccentric look, Tang Jingcheng took a deep breath and sat across from her.

"Have a drink? The Blue Mountain here is good."

"No, I don't drink coffee."

"Yes, yes, you drink tea, Yunnan Pu'er, brother Jiu said."

"..."

Ye Tan was still eccentric, Tang Jingcheng was impatient: "What are you trying to say to me? I don't have time to spend here with you!"

"That's true, Tang Ji is half dead in the hospital now, you don't have time to spend here with me!" Ye Tan smiled and took a sip of the coffee in his cup.

Tang Jingcheng pinched the tablecloth hanging down with both hands, holding back his temper: "Miss Ye, I don't think you and I can sit together and drink coffee and chat, and my dad is indeed in the hospital Li, so please speak quickly if you have something to say."

"Tsk tsk... Are you annoyed?" Ye Tan raised his eyelids and glanced at Tang Jingcheng, continued to stir the coffee, and took another sip, "But this Blue Mountain is good, it's still not as delicious as Brother Nine's. It's a pity that Brother Nine only cooks for Lou Qingxiao to drink alone, the relationship between him and Lou Qingxiao has been very stable for so many years, why do you have one more now?"

"..."

"It's nothing more than that you are pregnant with his child. Otherwise, with Brother Nine's temper, how could he tolerate you?"

Inexplicably, Tang Jingcheng was completely impatient!
"If you called me here just to say these boring things, I'm sorry, I have something else to do, so I'm leaving first." Tang Jingcheng got up and was about to go out.

Ye Tan put the coffee cup on the table.

"Wait a moment."

Tang Jingcheng ignored it and continued walking.

Ye Tan leaned back on the chair, tapped his fingers on the table, and repeated: "Wait a minute, Mrs. Qiu!"

Tang Jing suddenly turned his head.

"What did you just call me?"

"Mrs. Qiu, did I call it wrong? You and Qiu Qiguan just obtained the certificate last year. Three months later, he died in a car accident at the back door of the Academy of Fine Arts. The man you always love, his bones are not cold. You can't wait to see him after only a few days after his death." Climbed onto Brother Nine's bed..."

"Shut up!" Tang Jingcheng rushed over, propped his hands on the table and yelled at Ye Tan.

Ye Tan said with a smile: "What? What did I say wrong? If I remember correctly, you slept with brother Jiu three months after Qiu Qiguan's death. This is what you call loyalty to marriage?"

"It was he who betrayed me first!" Tang Jingcheng's emotions had already begun to lose control, his eyes were flushed, and he put his hands on the table and stared at Ye Tan's face: "What do you know? He and Yang Xi had a child first , he was the one who apologized to me first!"

This is a pain that Tang Jingcheng can't face in his life, like a festering scar, which will never heal.

Ye Tan looked proudly at Tang Jingcheng's facial features deformed by grief.

"Do you really think that Qiu Qiguan betrayed you first? Yes, I admit that he and Yang Xi did something shameful, and Yang Xi is indeed pregnant with his child, but do you know the reason behind it?"

Tang Jingcheng's eyes flickered: "What do you want to say?"

"Tsk tsk... what do I want to say?" Ye Tan looked at Tang Jingcheng with a frown, and gently pulled her hand away from the edge of the table, "Come on, Miss Tang, take it easy and sit on the chair. I'm afraid what you're looking at will make you unable to stand up."

Tang Jingcheng's legs gave way, and Ye Tan pushed him into a chair and sat down.

Ye Tan just lowered his head and took out an envelope from his bag, and threw it in front of Tang Jingcheng.

"what?"

"Look, just look and you'll know."

Tang Jing opened the envelope without knowing why, and inside was a stack of photos. In the first photo, she and Qiu Qiguan walked together arm in arm. Qiu Qiguan was wearing a black coat, with a handsome smile on his face, and she was wearing a pink thick sweater with loose hair. The hair rests on his arm like a little girl.

The background is IKEA. Tang Jingcheng still remembers this scene. In the spring of last year, the villa where she and Qiu Qiguan were planning to get married had just been renovated. He took time to accompany her to the home store to buy soft furnishings.

But why did Ye Tan have this photo?
"What do you mean?" Tang Jingcheng asked.

Ye Tan took another sip of coffee, and said with full patience, "You continue to look behind!"

There will be a large stack of photos in the future, and the time when each photo was taken is in the lower right corner.

Tang Jingcheng turned over one by one.

In the beginning, the photos were of Qiu Qiguan and Tang Jingcheng's daily life.

After he stayed up all night in the studio, Tang Jingcheng went to find him early in the morning, and the two had breakfast together.

She had a great appetite, so Qiu Qiguan found time to make dinner for her, and the two of them pushed the cart to the supermarket.

He took her to the event, she drank too much wine, she started to act presumptuously in the parking lot, Qiu Qiguan pressed her against the pillar and kissed her...

……

Tang Jingcheng felt that she had forgotten every scene. It was only a few months. She spent a few months digging this man out of her heart. The child fell down again.

She has been in love with Qiu Qiguan for so many years!

Tang Jingcheng's hand holding the photo began to shake, tears welling in his eyes.

Continue to turn backwards, and the back gradually starts to feel wrong.

Yang Xi went in and out of Qiu Qiguan's studio late at night.

Qiu Qiguan took Yang Xi out for dinner.

Qiu Qiguan hugged Yang Xi's waist during the event.

Qiu Qiguan and Yang Xi met at the hotel, and Yang Xi took his arm into the elevator...

Tang Jingcheng deliberately paid attention to the date under the photo. In May last year, she and the man had already received their certificates at that time.

Huh... Tears still fell, Tang Jingcheng felt that he was worthless, but he was still crying for this man at this time.

She rubbed the corners of her eyes with her fingers, and continued to turn the photos backwards.

There were only the last few pictures left, and when she looked up, she felt her heart swell, tearing apart.

"How could you have..."

"You want to ask me why I even have this photo, right?" Ye Tan asked.

Tang Jingcheng opened his eyes in horror, then moved his gaze to the photo.

She will never forget the scene in the photo, it has appeared in her dreams countless times since Qiu Qiguan's death.

On that rainy night, at the back door of the Academy of Fine Arts, the road was almost abandoned, and it was so far away that few people usually pass by. Qiu Qiguan parked his car under a book and closed the door. The heavy rain poured on his car. On the roof of the car, while he and Yang Xi were doing dirty things in the car.

Tang Jingcheng almost witnessed the whole process, and in this photo... only a black car was seen in the photo, parked in the rain and fog like a giant, everything that happened inside the car could not be photographed, but the woman standing next to the car took photos Be clear.

It was Tang Jingcheng, with disheveled hair and standing upright, like a ghost in the middle of the night.

The rain was pouring down, and the camera lens was half covered by the fog. Under the rain, there was a tree, a car, and a woman standing half a meter away from the car...

Tang Jingcheng's hand could no longer grasp the photo, and he felt indescribable, suffocating, mourning, and horrified.

It was terrifying, as if there were a thousand pairs of eyes spying on him in the dark behind him.

"Why...why do you have these photos?" She raised her eyes to look at Ye Tan.

Ye Tan put down the coffee cup in his hand and smiled: "You ask me? Miss Tang, I'm from Jiurongtai, and I only take orders from Brother Jiu."

Tang Jingcheng didn't understand for a moment, and he was taken aback before he said, "You mean, Guan Lue asked you to take the photo?"

"Well, it can be said that, but I don't have such a good photography skills, I just arranged people to follow Qiu Qiguan according to Brother Nine's wishes."

"Why?" Tang Jingcheng's mind was already confused, "Why did he do this?"

"Well... I can only say that Brother Nine did this for a purpose! Including that he first met you in Tengchong, do you think it was a coincidence? Wrong, it was arranged by Brother Nine on purpose! There is also Qiu Qiguan's car accident and your father's matter , was it an accident? Heh...how could there be so many accidents, maybe there are things you don't know about!"

Ye Tan picked a topic, and suddenly stopped talking, "I can't explain some things too clearly. You know that we have rules in Jiurongtai. If you talk too much, I will die when I go back!"

Clearly it was intentional.

Tang Jingcheng clenched her hands into fists. She felt that she was about to stop breathing, but she was still trying to restrain herself.

"Ye Tan, you can't do this, you called me here, you showed me these photos...you have to tell me clearly! Why, why did he follow Qiu Qiguan, what does Qiu Qiguan's car accident have to do with him? Yes, and my father..."

Tang Jingcheng's voice started to tremble, and she had to grab the table with both hands to stabilize: "And my father, what does this have to do with it?"

All this has completely exceeded the space that she can imagine and accept, as if she was thrown into the boundless net at once.

What Ye Tan wanted to see was her disorientation and loss of control, so she leaned over and patted Tang Jingcheng's arm.

"Relax, this is a very long story, some things are not convenient for me to tell, but you can ask brother Jiu yourself."

Tang Jingcheng looked at Ye Tan's half-smile face.

"No...no..." She shook her head violently.

Impossible, Qiu Qiguan's car accident, his father's imprisonment, how could these irrelevant things have anything to do with Guan Weiwei!
Do not……

"I don't believe it, you're making up stories... I can't suspect Guan Lue just because of a few photos, he won't... We met by chance in Tengchong... Qiu Qiguan's car accident was caused by brake failure..."

Tang Jingcheng became more and more confused, and his back began to sweat.

Ye Tan looked at her flustered look, and smiled: "Miss Tang, why are you deceiving yourself so much? You don't have to believe what I say, but the photos are facts. If you think I'm making up a story, then I'll tell you One thing, did the police investigate the scene of the crime after Qiu Qiguan's car accident?"

"..." Tang Jingcheng didn't answer, his teeth clenched.

"You rushed there as soon as you received the call from the traffic police that night, so let me ask you, did you find Qiu Qiguan's mobile phone at the scene?"
