Xu Mingzhi:
Su Cunyi:
No one could see her?
What did that mean?
Du Meilan reacted and her expression stiffened unnaturally. “I mean…
unfortunately, Pei Huai took her out!”
Before she opened the door, she had sent a WeChat message to her son saying that his in-laws were here.
Pei Huai replied very calmly.
[ “Ask them if they’ve had lunch and help me entertain them.” ]
Du Meilan:
Were they here for lunch?
“I see.” Su Cunyi looked disappointed, but he thought it was good. Anyway, Xu Mingzhi was here today, and he couldn’t catch up with his daughter, so he might as well come another day. “We didn’t think it through. We should have called before coming.”
Du Meilan was embarrassed. “It’s already noon. Let’s eat together.”
“Ah, no.” Su Cunyi handed the gift to the butler. “Since she’s not here, we’ll go back first.”
Du Meilan smiled, afraid of being seen through, so she didn’t ask him to stay.
“Wait a minute.”
However, just as she thought that she had passed the test, Xu Mingzhi, who had not spoken for a long time, suddenly spoke.
Du Meilan’s heart skipped a beat.
At that moment, she and Su Cunyi shared the same feelings.
Xu Mingzhi’s sharp eyes sized up the shoe cabinet at the entrance.
She looked at the neatly arranged pairs of shoes under the shoe cabinet. “Where are Su Ji’s shoes?”
Du Meilan smiled calmly. “She must have worn them when she went out?”
Su Cunyi said, “what kind of question is this…”
The rest of his words were instantly silenced by Xu Mingzhi’s gaze.
Xu Mingzhi turned around and continued to look at Du Meilan. “She took a few
pairs of shoes and a lot of luggage when she left, but it doesn’t seem like she’s moved in?
As a mother, she always had a keen sense of smell when it came to such matters.
Su Cunyi finally realized what she meant.
“Did Su Ji move into the Pei residence?”
Du Meilan’s eyes twitched. “Yes, the luggage has been moved into their rooms…”
Xu Mingzhi narrowed her eyes and smiled. “Then I’ll go to their room to take a look. ”
She spoke very quickly, and Du Meilan was almost caught off guard. However, she still moved sideways to stop her. “Wait!”
Su Cunyi.
Xu Mingzhi’s eyes narrowed into a thin line…
Ten minutes later, Xu Mingzhi and Su Cunyi came out of the Pei residence after figuring out what was going on.
Their precious daughter had gone out to live alone with her boyfriend behind their backs. As parents, they would definitely be very upset if they found out.
However, although they were depressed, the two of them were also reasonable and did not make things difficult for the Pei family. Du Meilan kept saying that she wanted them to stay for lunch.
They were too angry to eat.
Xu Mingzhi just couldn’t figure it out. So what if they were living together? Why didn’t her baby tell her directly?
She was such an open-minded mother. How could she not agree?
Su Cunyi saw that her expression was not good and tried to persuade her, “forget it. She left with him willingly. As parents, we shouldn’t care too much.”
After two beeps, Xu Mingzhi unlocked the car and walked to the car, ignoring him.
Su Cunyi smiled bitterly and shook his head. “Your temper hasn’t changed at all after 20 years. Why don’t I…treat you to a meal?”
“You want to treat me?” Xu Mingzhi sneered and turned to look at him. “Yes, it’s my treat.” Su Cunyi said, “do you want to?”
The summer afternoon wind gently flowed between the two of them, bringing with it some indescribable emotions.
The hair beside the woman’s ear was blown away, and the collar of the man’s shirt flew up.
Xu Mingzhi looked at him and was about to open her mouth when Su Cunyi’s phone suddenly rang.
Xu Mingzhi kept quiet.
Su Cunyi made an apologetic gesture. The call was from someone in the Su residence. Those people rarely called him. He was afraid that something had happened, so he answered the call first.
“Bad news, sir!”
As soon as he picked up, he heard a panicked voice. There was also the sound of many people running around.
“What’s going on?” He frowned.
Xu Mingzhi also looked at him.
“Old Madam suddenly fainted just now! Her entire body was twitching! She’s even foaming at the mouth! ”
It was a mess.
“How did this happen?” Su Cunyi turned pale with fright. He was not in the mood to care about anything else. He turned around and walked towards his car, his phone pressed to his ear. “Did you call the ambulance? I’m going back Xu Mingzhi watched him leave, but her expression did not change.
She heard the conversation.
She would pretend that nothing had happened. He would never know the answer that Xu Mingzhi was going to give before his phone rang.
Su Cunyi had already driven the car away. Xu Mingzhi turned around and got into her own car…
At the television station building.
Dong Xiyou went to work as usual today.
She didn’t have to go out today.
She hung the diamond painting that she had brought back from the rented apartment on the partition of her desk.
Looking at it every day, she felt energetic.
She had not forgotten about finding clues, but the more anxious she was, the more she could not find them.
It was the afternoon break, and the colleagues who had finished lunch came back from the dining room one after another.
She also put away her half-eaten lunch box and put it back into the thermal bag. Then, she hung the thermal bag on the table.
She looked up and saw the painting from a very close distance. Then, she saw that another diamond was missing.
Someone with OCD would die just from looking at this.
She was thinking about buying some diamonds online to fill the gaps, but this painting was out of print and she couldn’t buy a copy of the same color.
Then, at this moment…
“zila–”
“zila–”
Her pupils were constricted.
She heard the sound of the soles of shoes rubbing against the ground as if something hard and small was stuck to the shoes.
“zila–”
“zila–”
It was exactly the same as the sound of Zhou Zicheng’s shoes.
Her heart rate increased bit by bit, and she turned her head back bit by bit.
She thought she would see Zhou Zicheng, but she didn’t. It was her colleague who passed by.
The man looked at the soles of his shoes as he walked. He had obviously heard the ear-piercing sound.
He couldn’t take it anymore. He sat on the desk next to Dong Xiyou, bent his legs, and looked at the soles of his shoes.
He quickly found the source of the noise and dug out a shiny little thing from the bottom of his shoe..v
