35-year-old Jiang Li was unmarried and childless, running her own small company with an annual income of several million, living a wonderful life.
19-year-old Jiang Li was pretty but brainles...
Zhang Yuhua was in a very bad mood after being chased and scolded by her husband and daughter all day. After dinner, she did not clean up immediately, but chose to go out for a walk.
It is still winter and the weather is very cold. As soon as Zhang Yuhua opened the door, a gust of cold wind blew, and she quickly wrapped herself more tightly.
Zhang Yuhua took a scarf and a hat from the house, wrapped herself tightly and walked out.
She actually didn't have any purpose. She was just very upset because her daughter didn't respect her, and her husband didn't like her either. She felt that her life was a bit meaningless.
The place where she lived was very close to the guesthouse, and she walked to the door of the guesthouse unknowingly.
Zhang Yuhua raised her head and looked towards the guesthouse again and again.
Finally, she quietly stepped aside, and Zhang Yuhua felt a little complicated.
Ever since her daughter plotted against Shen Changan here and her husband's position was promoted, she has become less and less influential in this family.
Zhang Yuhua felt a little melancholy, so she stared at the guesthouse sign from afar and was reluctant to leave.
…
"The person who warned me was just a gangster. I didn't know who was behind it. I just thought I was a nobody and it was better to keep quiet, so I kept quiet."
"If you hadn't found me today and asked me to tell the truth, I wouldn't have the courage to speak out."
Director Niu sighed heavily. Now that everything was out in the open, he had no worries anymore.
He didn't know what would happen to him in the future, but he knew that if he didn't say goodbye today, he wouldn't have to come to work tomorrow.
Compared to what might happen in the future, it is better to save the present.
"I'm sorry to bother you, but you know, this matter is very important to me."
Although Shen Changan apologized, he did not regret it. He needed to know the truth, which would definitely affect the interests of some people.
"I'd like to know where that waiter's new job is now? Or if you provide his name and age, I can find someone to investigate myself."
Shen Changan has sorted out his thoughts, and he knows exactly what to do next.
Director Niu took out a pen and paper from his pocket, quickly wrote a line of words, tore it off and handed it to Shen Changan.
"All the information about that employee is here. He's a good person and has worked diligently in our guesthouse over the years. I hope you can show him some mercy."
"As long as he can tell me the information I want, I won't make things difficult for him. If he's unwilling to tell me, then I'll have to resort to extreme measures."
Shen Changan carefully looked at the contents of the paper for a few seconds, then folded the paper and put it in his pocket.
The news about the guesthouse had been gathered, and it would be a waste of time to stay, so Shen Changan turned and left.
Director Niu personally escorted him to the door of the guesthouse.
It was very cold outside, and Shen Changan turned up his collar. He was wearing the blue khaki work clothes that Jiang Li gave him.
It is a very ordinary style and not very warm to wear, but it is said that wearing it this way is more down-to-earth.
Shen Changan walked out of the guesthouse, and Zhang Yuhua, who was standing aside in a daze, was attracted by the tall man at the door of the guesthouse.
Why does this man look familiar?
When Shen Changan got into trouble, his parents sent someone to negotiate with Zhang Yuhua and his wife, and he himself was not directly involved.
Therefore, Zhang Yuhua had never met Shen Changan, but she knew that there was a person named Shen Changan.
As for how her daughter knew Shen Changan's identity and got in touch with him, Zhang Yuhua had no idea.
At this moment, she only knew that although the man not far away was dressed simply, he was tall and straight, and looked very imposing.
Zhang Yuhua stared at Shen Changan for a long time. Shen Changan noticed that someone was staring at him. He turned around unhappily, but when he saw that it was an elderly stranger, he didn't care.
The two looked at each other briefly at the door of the guesthouse.
Then Shen Changan left. He did not return to the dormitory immediately, but found the colleague he had dinner with last time.
There were seven people in total who had dinner with us last time. Four of them were completely drunk, one was slightly tipsy, and one did not drink at all because he was allergic to alcohol.
What Shen Changan is looking for now is this person who doesn't drink alcohol.
Shen Changan came to the door of a low bungalow. He checked the house number twice and confirmed that Du Long lived here.
Shen Changan knocked on the door, and Du Long, who had just finished washing and was about to go to bed, opened the door puzzledly.
He became even more confused when he saw that it was Shen Changan who came over.
"Shen Changan? Didn't you go back to the provincial capital? Why are you back so soon?"
Shen Changan is a good person. Although his status is not low, he never puts on airs. No matter where he works, whether it is short-term or long-term, he can always get along well with his colleagues.
Shen Changan said last time that he was leaving Baiyun Town, and it is very likely that he will not come back in the future.
We held a farewell party for him. Everyone was in a heavy mood that day, so they accidentally drank a little too much.
"Du Long, I have something to ask you. Can you let me in to talk?"
Although Shen Changan, his former colleague, was eager to know the truth of the matter, he still respected him.
"Come in, come in! I'm so excited that I've lost all my hospitality. Please don't mind!"
Du Long quickly invited Shen Changan in. Du Long's parents had passed away, and he himself was not married. He was the only one living in the house, which made it convenient for them to talk.
Du Long quickly asked Shen Changan to sit down and hurriedly made him a cup of tea.
The two sat down face to face, and Shen Changan picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea.
The two sat quietly for a while, and Du Long felt a sense of pressure and couldn't help but ask.
“Ahem, Shen, Shen Changan, do you have something to tell me when you come to see me this time?”
"On March 31st of last year, that was my farewell party. I drank too much, but you didn't drink a drop. I want to ask you, when you went to the bathroom, did you see a girl sitting in the lobby?"
Du Long tried hard to recall what happened that night, then he nodded.
The girl was sitting alone in the lobby eating noodles. Although she was very low-key and didn't make any noise the whole time, it was hard not to notice her because she was alone.
"Do you remember what she looked like? Any characteristics?"
Shen Changan stood up excitedly, and Du Long continued to try to recall. When he raised his head, he saw Shen Changan, who was always calm and composed, looking at him eagerly.
Du Long originally had some thoughts, but now he was frightened by his eagerness and suppressed them.
"Don't look at me like that, I'm nervous."
Shen Changan sat down quickly, still looking straight at Du Long, hoping that he would quickly describe the girl's appearance.
Du Long took a few deep breaths. When he lowered his head and thought seriously, his confused mind gradually became clear.
"The girl was dressed very simply, was very thin, but had a very pretty face..."
