The Rest of My Life

I was stunned and subconsciously asked, "What do you mean?"

Shen Zixian's brows twitched, he pursed his lips and said, "Looks like my father is still hiding many things from me?"

Me: "…"

He shouldn't have spoken so quickly just now …

Shen Zisheng said expressionlessly: "My dad and the Gu family have always been close. This time, something has happened to the Gu family and it has affected my dad. He has been running around these few days, and it's said that he has also been looking for Young Master Wednesday?"

I bit the corner of my lip and didn't say anything.

He said, "Looks like it's true."

I still didn't say anything.

He didn't look too happy, and I wasn't sure if he was unhappy about Shen Fang's actions, or if he was unhappy that Zhou Xun and I didn't help.

I hesitated for a moment before I looked at him. "Have you never known what your father is doing?"

This time it was Shen Zixian who went silent.

After all, he went to become a medical examiner after graduation and didn't interfere in the Shen family's business.

After a long while, he said, "I didn't know he had the guts to do those things …"

His expression was pained and incredulous.

I understood instantly.

Although Shen Fang was insatiably greedy, in the eyes of outsiders, he was not an extremely vicious person. In fact, he even had a magnanimous reputation.

After hearing what Shen Fang had done, Shen Zixian must be in a bad mood …

I looked at him and asked, "Are you blaming Uncle Zhou for not helping the Shen family?"

Shen Zixian swept his gaze over me and said, "No."

I paused before saying, "Then, what do you plan to do next?"

With his upright character, what would he do after knowing what Shen Fang had done?

The criminal evidence that Shen Fang had placed on the surface was probably just the tip of the iceberg, and with Shen Zixian's intelligence, he must have thought of it long ago.

He must be suffering in his heart …

Shen Ziwang was silent for a long time, before he said: "I still haven't thought it through."

He did not seem prepared to continue.

I sighed inwardly and didn't ask any further.

He had to figure this out himself.

Zhou Xun had previously said that Shen Zixian would have to make his own choice and no one could help him.

Then I figured he was talking to me just to make sure it was Shen Fang.

But isn't he in the serious crime team? Team Tao is still in charge of the Gu family case, so he should be able to get some information from them, right?

But I didn't ask. I thought maybe he just wanted to talk to someone.

He would be annoyed if I asked him questions.

I suddenly thought of the sad look on Li Jun's face just now. I changed the topic and said, "Cousin, you and Li Jun …" How are you guys? "

Shen Zixian came back to his senses, looked at me lightly, and said, "Do you think that under my current situation, I would be able to be together with her?"

This was the first time he took up a topic when I mentioned Qingyao. I couldn't help but feel a bit surprised.

I narrowed my eyes and sized him up for a moment. "You …" "Actually, I like Li Yao, right?"

Shen Zixian looked at me again.

He did not admit nor deny it. He only said, "I will not look for her again. You should also advise her to give up."

I frowned and looked at him. "You said that because of your family, right?"

Shen Zixian then looked out the window, and said: "No matter the reason, she and I are both impossible."

His gaze was distant and cold.

My mood was mixed.

Although I didn't want Li Yao to marry into the Shen Clan, it was just that Shen Zixian's parents and sister weren't good people. However, I felt regretful when I heard Shen Zixian say that it was impossible for them to be together.

I hesitated, but in the end, I didn't try to persuade him to change his mind.

Perhaps, the best ending would be if he and Jun Wu Yi separated …

I whispered, "Cousin, you're a very good person …" This was what Li Jun liked the most as well … Back then when her father wanted to sell her to the Shen family, it was you who helped her … What I want to say is, if you really like her, I hope that you can take care of your family matters before deciding whether or not you want to be with her. She's a good girl and she's so devoted to you that I'm afraid she'll get hurt... Do you understand what I mean? "

Shen Zixian turned his gaze back to me and did not speak.

After a while, he finished the cup of coffee, stood up and said, "Let's go."

He was obviously trying to escape.

I hesitated and didn't say anything more.

I believe he is a man of his word, and will surely think it through.

Furthermore, now was not the time to think about relationships. How the Shen family would go about their business and how he would face Shen Fang was a problem. He was definitely not in the mood to think about anything else.

Shen Zixian walked me to the entrance of the laboratory. Before he left, he suddenly said, "If nothing goes wrong, I will be home tonight."

Was he giving me the news in advance?

I was overjoyed and thanked him.

He looked at me blankly for a few seconds, then turned and got into the car.

I couldn't guess what he meant by that last look, but I wasn't in the mood to guess, because my attention was completely focused on the matter of Zhou Xun's coming home.

It was so amazing that I didn't have the heart to work all afternoon.

However, when I returned to my old house at night, I did not see Zhou Xun.

He was taken away the night before yesterday, and tonight is forty-eight hours. Logically speaking, the investigation should have ended by now.

Moreover, Shen Zixian also hinted to me that Zhou Xun would return.

I was anxious.

What made me feel even more uncomfortable was that Grandpa Zhou had been locked up in the study.

Since my return home, in the short span of an hour, several important people have come to the Zhou family.

These people were all old subordinates of Grandpa Zhou and were part of the Zhou family's faction. However, they didn't have a close relationship with the outside world. It was likely that they didn't want the outside world to find out anything about them.

However, this time, everyone was present, and the courtyard was filled with parked cars.

I fidgeted and listened quietly to the sounds in the study, but the soundproofing was so good that I had no idea what was being said.

After another hour, all of his old subordinates left. Grandpa Zhou walked out of the study room.

He didn't look particularly good, but he wasn't ugly either, and I couldn't tell if it was good or bad.

However, no matter what, I still need to know about Zhou Xun's situation.

I hastily went forward and asked anxiously, "Grandfather, did something happen to Uncle Zhou?"

Grandpa Zhou looked at me and said, "I do have some matters to attend to." He pointed to the sofa opposite him and said, "Sit down first."

I sat down on the sofa and stared unblinkingly at the old man.

Grandpa Zhou said, "What I'm going to say next might be a little shocking, but it has already happened, so we have to accept … You are Isao's wife, so you have to hold on, understand? "

My heart thumped.

It looks like things are really bad.

Had Zhou Xun been decided? Or was there something else?

Grandpa Zhou said in a deep voice, "You have to be mentally prepared."

It seemed that something had indeed happened.

I sat up straight and clenched my fists. "Grandpa, just tell me. I can bear it."

"Ah Xun left the police station at noon, but there was no sign of him. Two hours ago, we confirmed his disappearance."

What did that mean?

My first thought was that Zhou Xun had been kidnapped.

However, Zhou Xun was definitely accompanied by a bodyguard, how could he be kidnapped so easily …

So what happened?

The more I thought about it, the more confused I became. Suddenly I felt the world spinning around me, and I fell onto the couch, unable to speak.
