Chapter 301 Excessive Conditions

Shen Yixiao hung up the phone, and when I called again, his phone was turned off.

Now I am in the third trimester of pregnancy and cannot run around. If I have a premature birth, it will be bad for both me and the baby. I cannot contact Xu Zhengnan or Shen Yixiao, so I had to call my parents and ask them to come and accompany me.

When my parents came over, they found that Xu Zhengnan was not there, so they asked me, "Where is Zhengnan?"

"He has something to do and will be back in a few days." I replied tiredly.

My parents knew that Xu Zhengnan was always very busy, so they didn't ask any more questions. It was Qingming Festival holiday these two days, so he happened to be staying at my place.

With them around, I felt a little more at ease, but when it came time to go to bed at night, I still tossed and turned and found it difficult to fall asleep.

I was worried about Xu Zhengnan's safety, and I couldn't figure out what was going on with Shen Yixiao. Was he really reborn as well?

Three days is not a long time, but I felt like it was a year.

I went to the police station specifically to confirm whether there was any problem with Lu Xiaoyun's death, and the answer I got was the same: she was murdered and the murderer was being tracked down.

I don't know why, but I thought of Shen Yixiao. Could it be...

It's impossible. Even if he was really reborn, he would not be able to kill Lu Xiaoyun.

After leaving the police station, I did not go home, but went to the Xu family's old house. I was very worried about Xu Zhengnan's situation. Perhaps if I told the Xu family about these things, they could find Xu Zhengnan and ensure his safety.

When I saw Grandpa Xu, he was lying on the bed. Originally, the Xu family didn't allow me to come in. The fact that Xu Zhengnan and I got the marriage certificate without consulting them first made them very dissatisfied with me.

But when they heard me say that it was a matter related to Xu Zhengnan's life safety, they let me in to see Grandpa Xu.

"Grandpa Xu, there's something I'd like to ask you for help with." Looking at Grandpa Xu, who looked unhappy on the bed, I spoke with gritted teeth.

"Do you need my help with anything else?" Grandpa Xu asked coldly.

I knew that since he was willing to see me, it meant that he was giving me the opportunity to speak.

After all, it is a matter concerning Xu Zhengnan's life safety.

I told him the truth about Xu Zhengnan and Huang Zhongxiong's cooperation, and also about the fact that I couldn't contact him for the past three days. I was worried that something might happen to him.

After hearing what I said, Grandpa Xu's expression became solemn. He was naturally worried about whether Xu Zhengnan was in danger, but he had his conditions.

He looked at me, a trace of seriousness flashed across his old face. "I can send people to investigate and protect Zhengnan at any time, but I have my conditions. If he is really in danger and needs my help, you can leave him after I bring him back. As for the baby in your belly, if it is a girl, you can take it away, if it is a boy, you must stay."

I stood up. This was too much!

Grandpa Xu stopped me and said, "Think about it yourself. Zhengnan is in danger because of you. I know Huang Zhongxiong. He is a bad man who does not keep his word."

I didn't stop and quickly left the Xu family's old house. The child was about to be born. At this time, Grandpa Xu wanted me to leave Xu Zhengnan, which I couldn't accept.

When I got home, my parents saw that I looked unhappy and asked me what happened. I answered them with a few words.

According to Xu Zhengnan, he will be back in three days, so I will wait a little longer.

——

On the third day, I waited at home from morning till night, but Xu Zhengnan did not come back.

My parents have already gone back, and I’m afraid that if they stay with me, I won’t be able to help but tell them about these things. They won’t be able to help, and will only increase their worries.

By the evening, I couldn't sit still anymore.

Just when I was about to contact Grandpa Xu, Shen Yixiao called, “Where’s Xu Zhengnan?”

The first question he asked startled me, as if he knew Xu Zhengnan was not there and asked it on purpose. If Huang Zhongxiong had not given up on him as a chess piece, he might have told him about the transaction with Xu Zhengnan.

I calmed myself down. I now have a lot of questions about Shen Yixiao.

"Chen Yixiao, what did you mean last time when you said that you shouldn't have agreed to go hiking?" I asked.

"Nothing." Shen Yixiao refused to answer my question.

"Don't avoid my questions. Why don't you care about Lu Xiaoyun's death? She was killed by someone." I asked.

Shen Yixiao fell into silence. Suddenly, I heard a gunshot from his end, and then he hung up the phone.

I became even more panicked.

I called again, but no one answered.

Just when I didn't know what to do, my phone rang again. It was Xu Zhengnan calling. I was ecstatic and quickly answered the phone, "Xu Zhengnan, where are you?"

"Wait for me, I'll be back soon." Xu Zhengnan's voice was a little hurried, and it could be heard that something had happened over there.

"Where are you? Can I call the police? Tell me the address." I asked anxiously.

"No need. Something happened here, but I'm safe for now. Li Yue... I'll tell you when I get back." Xu Zhengnan's voice became a little hesitant, as if he had encountered something strange.

Before I could say anything, another gunshot was heard, exactly the same as the one I heard on Shen Yixiao's phone just now.

This was followed by a noisy shouting of many people.

The person they spoke was not Chinese, but the language of Country M. They must be the people brought by Huang Zhongxiong from Country M.

I wanted to say something else but the call was disconnected. I didn't dare call again. There was chaos over there and my call would distract Xu Zhengnan. If anything went wrong, it would be my fault.

I suppressed my worry and anxiety and waited for Xu Zhengnan to come back.

I don't know how long it had been, but the sky was already turning pale. I was lying in bed, not feeling sleepy at all, reading the news on my phone, my mind a mess.

I saw a news report about Shen Yixiao. Two months ago, he took a plane to Country M, but the plane crashed. Thirty-six people on board died and seven were seriously injured, including him.

Shen Yixiao was declared dead after rescue, but when he was sent for cremation, he miraculously woke up and his injuries recovered quickly.

Looking at those miraculous descriptions, I couldn't help but clench my phone tightly. All the descriptions reminded me of rebirth. Shen Yixiao was most likely really reborn, so he talked about climbing the mountain.

I was a little dazed. If he was really reborn, then he would know that I was pushed off a cliff and died in my previous life. I believe the police will find out the result, it just depends on whether he is willing to pursue it.

When I think of those things that happened so long ago, I don’t feel much emotion anymore.

Now I just hope Xu Zhengnan is safe.

I looked at the time and it was already 4:30 in the morning. I touched my stomach and felt empty inside.

At this moment, footsteps were heard outside the bedroom, and then the door was pushed open.
