Chapter 19 Xie Liuzheng’s suspicion.

"Hello, is anyone here?"

In the empty restroom, the girl's loud voice echoed.

After a few seconds, no one responded.

No one was in the toilet except me.

This is unscientific. The probability of an empty ladies room on a weekend is about the same as winning the lottery.

Such a lucky (crossed out) unfortunate thing happened to her.

It was a rare weekend, so Shen Baili and her friends made an appointment to go to the cinema in the mall. The four of them watched a movie that was so insane that it shocked the world with great anticipation, and then decided to have a hot pot to heal their wounded souls.

In the middle of the hot pot, Shen Baili went to the restroom, and unexpectedly encountered a huge "surprise".

Her period came early, which is not normal.

Shen Baili's menstruation has always been regular, just like her alarm clock, which is never early or late, making people feel at ease.

As expected, an accident happened.

Shen Baili took out her cell phone and wanted to ask Qiao Yi for help. She reached into her empty wallet and then she remembered that she had left her cell phone in her bag and forgot to take it.

To make matters worse, she was wearing light-colored pants, which were also dirty.

Unlucky events, like nominos, keep coming one after another.

Shen Baili thought about it and decided that if it really didn't work, she could go to the women's restroom door to find someone.

Just as she was about to get up, she heard clear footsteps, like the sound of heaven!

She immediately asked for help: "Miss, do you have a sanitary napkin?"

"My aunt got my pants dirty."

The footsteps paused, and Shen Baili heard the young lady's answer: "I didn't bring it, wait a minute."

"I'll go to the mall and buy a pack."

"Thank you." Shen Baili was so moved that she almost cried. There are still many good people in the world.

The footsteps sounded again, and compared to the previous elegant sound, this time it was obviously more hurried.

"What size pants do you wear?"

Shen Baili blurted out: "Size S."

"Okay, wait a minute, I'll be right back."

The sound of footsteps gradually faded away, and the restroom returned to silence. Shen Baili's anxious heart finally settled down.

Girls are angels.

She knew that people couldn't always be unlucky!

About eight minutes later, Shen Baili heard familiar footsteps. There was a knock on the door of her toilet, and the girl's breathing was a little unstable.

"Sorry for the wait. I'll give you the things."

Shen Baili opened the door a little and noticed the young lady's beautiful hands.

Slender and fair, with distinct joints, she is as beautiful as a work of art.

"Thank you, thank you very much."

"Miss, can you give me your contact information?"

"My phone is with my friend. I'll transfer the money to you when I get the phone."

"Okay, I'll give it to you later."

Shen Baili heard the sound of the toilet door opening not far away, and went to buy sanitary napkins for her without even having time to go to the girls' toilet.

Her heart felt warm, and her previous unhappiness was instantly healed.

I don’t know what the young lady likes, but she wants to give the other person a small gift to repay her kindness.

Shen Baili opened the bag and found it was full.

Disposable underwear, simple and comfortable black pants, a pack of daily sanitary napkins, and a baby warmer.

Very thoughtful QAQ.

Shen Baili changed her pants and the door of the toilet next door opened.

The moment their eyes met, they were both stunned.

"Angel Sister... not... Aunt Xie?" Shen Baili asked hesitantly.

She was sure that no one came to the restroom during the process, so... the young lady who helped her just now was the cold and beautiful Xie Liuzheng who was unfamiliar to her.

The two of them didn't communicate much and couldn't hear each other's voice.

"Thank you, auntie. Thank you for what I did just now." Shen Baili was very sincere. It turned out that Auntie Xie had a cold exterior but a warm heart.

Xie Liuzheng's cold and delicate face was full of surprise. She had not expected that the girl she helped would be her step-niece whom she had only met a few times.

The girl's eyes sparkled, and she looked at her with gratitude.

"You're welcome." Xie Liuzheng said, "It's just a small favor."

[Aunt Xie is such a nice person, beautiful and kind.]

Although Shen Baili didn't open her mouth, Xie Liuzheng heard her voice.

Accurate and clear.

Xie Liuzheng's heart beat faster. Could there be a ghost in the toilet?

With a clang, Xie Liuzheng's body shook unconsciously. Shen Baili was puzzled: "Did something fall?"

Just as she was about to check out the situation, her arm was grabbed and she was dragged out by Xie Liuzheng.

"Let's go outside first."

Xie Liuzheng pulled Shen Baili back into the crowd. The bright lights of the mall made people feel at ease.

"Aunt Xie, what's wrong?" Shen Baili was puzzled, but followed Xie Liuzheng obediently.

Listening to the noisy voices around him, Xie Liuzheng breathed a sigh of relief: "Don't go to that toilet anymore, it seems a little..."

At this moment, she heard Shen Baili's voice again.

[Why is her face so pale? Is she sick?]

Shen Baili asked with concern: "Your hands are cold, are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"

"Do you want to go to the hospital?"

!

Xie Liuzheng suddenly entered the ice cellar, and her hands became even colder.

She looked at the people around her, but there was nothing unusual. Was she the only one who could hear the strange noise?

She answered subconsciously: "I was born with a cold body."

"Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?" Xie Liuzheng controlled his hands that were about to tremble.

The surrounding environment and the warmth of Shen Baili's forearm calmed Xie Liuzheng. She was a staunch materialist. She then silently recited the socialist values ​​several times in her heart and put her mind at ease.

Shen Baili: "I put on a warming pad and my stomach doesn't hurt anymore."

Her inner voice was unusually active at this time.

[I finally get some time alone with Aunt Xie... How should I tell her that the child I'm going to adopt is actually her husband's illegitimate child?]

[Duan Xing is a sinister, cunning, vicious, and kind-hearted scumbag!!! He had cheated on his wife a long time ago and raised his mistress and illegitimate child somewhere else...]

[As soon as Aunt Xie gave in, he manipulated the situation behind the scenes and sent the illegitimate child to an orphanage. After completing the legal adoption procedures, the illegitimate child had a legitimate identity and inherited Aunt Xie's property... What's even more disgusting is that the scumbag also changed the illegitimate child's name to... Duan Muzheng]

[…Duan Xing loves Xie Liuzheng, what a scumbag.]

[If I tell her directly, Aunt Xie will definitely not believe me. Otherwise, I can ask my eldest brother for help to investigate the scumbag?]

Shen Baili's inner voice was silent, yet deafening.

Every word hit Xie Liuzheng on the head.

Seriously, what the hell!

…

Xie Liuzheng forgot how she said goodbye to Shen Baili. When she came to her senses, she was already sitting in the car.

She calmed down, and her first reaction was to call Duan Xing. But when she pressed the button, her hand froze.

Those words pierced her heart like darts.

She recalled Duan Xing's sweet words.

"If we adopt a girl, her full name will be Duan Nianzhen. If it's a boy, his name will be Duan Muzheng. He will be our child and the witness of our love."

Xie Liuzheng's hands trembled uncontrollably. She bit her lips tightly, and the pain woke her up.

What if... is... true?

No one knew that name except her and Duan Xing.

"Ding-a-ling..."

Xie Liuzheng lowered her eyes and looked at the caller ID: Husband

She watched the phone ringing without moving.

After I hung up, the phone rang again.

In the closed space, the flashing screen was filled with horror effects, like a death warrant.

Xie Liuzheng took a deep breath, pressed the answer button, and said in a normal voice: "Hello, husband."

Duan Xing said gently: "Wife, why don't you answer the phone?"

Xie Liuzheng was startled: "I was just looking for something, and just when I was about to call back, you called me."

Duan Xing asked casually. He noticed that Xie Liuzheng was not in the right condition. "Wife, do you have a cold? Your voice sounds a little hoarse."

Xie Liuzheng: "Maybe the air conditioning in the mall is too strong."

She suddenly remembered her schedule for today and had a reason: "I feel a little uncomfortable. I have a headache."

"I want to go to the hospital and then go to the welfare home tomorrow."

She needs time to recover.

Duan Xing's tone was full of worry: "Do you have a headache? How about I take you to the hospital?"

"Nothing is more important than your health."

Through the phone, Xie Liuzheng seemed to be able to see his worried and distressed expression. Her heart suddenly tightened: "The mall is very close to the hospital. I can just drive there directly."

"I'll let Nuan Nuan accompany me."

Xie Liuzheng's plan was reasonable, and Duan Xing agreed: "Okay, then remember to call me back after the inspection."

"good."

Xie Liuzheng hung up the phone, and messages kept popping up on her phone. She clicked on them and found that it was from her friend Zheng Nuan who had asked her out today.

She forgot her friend in the store.

…

Zheng Nuan opened the car door: "Why did you catch a cold suddenly? Do you have a headache?"

Xie Liuzheng used the same excuse. Maybe because she looked pale, Zheng Nuan didn't doubt it and became more concerned: "I'll drive, you take a rest."

"Okay, thank you." Xie Liuzheng gave up the driving seat, his voice a little hoarse.

"Why are you being so polite to me?" Zheng Nuan waved her hand.

"Nuannuan, tell me..." Xie Liuzheng suddenly wanted to find someone to talk to, but swallowed the words back.

Zheng Nuan is in the same band as her and is a mutual friend of her and Duan Xing.

"What?" Zheng Nuan asked.

Xie Liuzheng: "...How can the air conditioning in the mall be so cold? It's giving me a headache."

She is now highly nervous and suspicious of everything around her.

The two of them arrived at the hospital smoothly and Xie Liuzheng also went to an ear department.

There was nothing wrong with her ears or head, and the doctor prescribed her some soothing medication.

…

After the treatment, Xie Liuzheng did not go home but drove to the Xie Group.

Xie Zhiyu was very surprised when he saw her.

"Auntie, why are you here?"

Except for necessary reasons, Xie Liuzheng seldom comes to Xie Group.

Xie Liuzheng sat on the sofa, drinking water in shock: "I'll come to find you."

She got straight to the point and stated her purpose: "I suspect Duan Xing has gone off the rails. Can you help me check it out?"

Xie Zhiyu suspected that he had heard wrongly: "Cheating?"

Xie Liuzheng crossed his hands and clasped them together: "Yes, suspected of cheating."

Xie Zhiyu sat down and said, "I will investigate."

He quickly recovered from his earlier gaffe and said in a steady and powerful voice, "Aunt, do you have someone you suspect?"

"Tell me everything you know, and I'll have a private investigator look into it in detail. The more details the better."
