Chapter 42 "I Will Find You"
"Of course I'm waiting for you to come back."
Jiang Shiyuan's heart began to beat violently. She had never thought that Pei Xiangwan would wait for her. She had never thought that someone would be so foolish as to wait outside for so long.
My heart was warmed, and her tone of voice also became gentle. "You've been waiting for a long time."
Pei Xiangwan shook her head and said, "No, I'm relieved that you're back safely. I'll go back to sleep then."
"If I don't come back, will you keep waiting?"
Pei Xiangwan quickly replied, "I'm not stupid, Jiang Jiang. If you haven't come back, something must have happened. I won't just sit there and wait. I'll go find the people you've been to, the places you've been to. I'll definitely find you."
The distance between them gradually shortened. Pei Xiangwan bent down and looked straight into Jiang Shiyuan's eyes. "Have you ever heard a saying?"
The hot air she sprayed out was like the white steam from boiling water, burning Jiang Shiyuan's face and making it red. She asked in panic, "W-what?"
"You can't always wait in the same place. Although it is beautiful, it is also bitter. If you wait too long, you will lose more opportunities that belong to you."
Jiang Shiyuan didn't understand at all. This sentence had nothing to do with waiting for her.
"I don't understand."
Pei Xiangwan smiled dotingly and rubbed the little fox's face. "It has many meanings, but for me it only has one. I won't let anything happen to you."
She had secretly turned on the mobile phone positioning for Jiang Shiyuan. She knew it was wrong, but she did it just in case, for the fox's safety.
The world cannot be all beauty and happiness, it has another side.
This is the dark side, where people live like sewer rats, doing all kinds of evil.
She never thinks she is wrong or evil, she only knows how to dominate everything and make kind people submit to her.
Lin Su has hardly had a good night's sleep these days. She is almost driven crazy by the online public opinion.
Her eyes were blue and empty, like a zombie indiscriminately eating people in the apocalypse. She bit her thumb nail, and the sound woke up Li Miao who was sleeping beside her.
Li Miao shouted impatiently, "What are you doing? Aren't you tired enough?"
Lin Su kept shaking her head and said like a madman, "No, no, no, this time is different from the previous times. I will definitely be finished, for sure." She kept repeating the last sentence.
Lin Su was very confident before. These revelations had no effect on her at all. She felt that she could still escape danger as before. However, this time, when she used the previous method, what she got was bombs thrown by the other party, each one more powerful than the last.
Those contents were all filmed by her, so why did they get spread out? What scared her the most was the other video. If Li Miao saw it, everything would be over.
She spent all the money she had on her and asked the person who leaked the information to tell her who the leaker was, but the money was returned, and these people all said the same thing.
"Someone you can't mess with."
The torture almost drove her crazy. Lin Su didn't think she did anything wrong, but she was afraid of death. Everyone is afraid of death.
The coffee on the table was steaming. Sheng Xing sat down opposite Jiang Shiyuan. She was still wearing a white dress, and her face was still haggard and pale.
"Thank you." She smiled sadly.
Jiang Shiyuan said, "You're welcome."
There was a knock on the door, and Jiang Shiyuan called out, "Come in."
Chen Cheng wrapped the documents, glanced at Sheng Xing and said, "Boss, it's about Li Miao."
Jiang Shiyuan stood up, looked at Sheng Xing and said, "Wait a minute, I'll be done soon."
"It's okay, go ahead."
To Sheng Xing, Jiang Shiyuan is her savior. He not only helps her, but also sends people to protect her safety. A faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
"Yueyue, someone is helping us."
At this time, her mobile phone on the table lit up. Sheng Xing grabbed the phone. It was a friend request from the accomplice who killed Qiao Yue, the landlord Li Qi. Anger made her body tremble, but she still clicked to agree.
She had good intentions and thought that if Li Qi apologized and repented, she could forgive him as long as the devil paid a heavy price. After all, she had thought too well of people.
Then the other party sent a long voice message.
"Damn, you're such a jerk. What's the big deal about someone dying? Ants like you can be strangled to death anytime, anywhere. If she dies, you'll have to die too. You two are the ones who deserve to die the most. You've ruined my business."
Soon another one popped up.
"The tenant has moved out, and I'm out with a bunch of people chasing them away. They won't sell it to me. Damn, were you the one who sent my message? I'm telling you, this isn't over. If you don't let me have a good life, you won't have a good life either."
Sheng Xin's heart felt like it was poured with a bucket of cold water. She forgot that these people had no kindness at all.
She only replied with two words: OK
Her eyes were filled with red bloodshot, and a cold smile appeared on her face, which was as pale as a death. In an instant, Sheng Xing seemed to be possessed by a ghost and had become a different person.
"Boss...this."
Chen Cheng heard Li Qi's scolding from the surveillance video. She was still quite worried about Sheng Xing's condition. In her eyes, Sheng Xing was like Dou E, and the surveillance video could only show her back.
Jiang Shiyuan tapped his fingers on the table. "It's okay. Let's leave it like this for now."
Sheng Xing was fully armed and wrapped herself tightly, then she escaped from the house that protected her in the middle of the night. She thought she had escaped the eyes of the bodyguards, so she took a taxi.
"Master, go to the Happiness Building."
When the driver heard the name, he quickly advised, "Little girl, that's not a good place to go. Didn't you read the report?"
"It's okay, I'm going right now, please."
Hearing the girl's firm attitude, the driver didn't know what to say.
"Boss, Miss Sheng is really gone. What should I do, boss?"
Jiang Shiyuan played with the petals of the gladiolus. The gladiolus seemed shy and shook its petals.
"Just keep her safe."
Sheng Xing used wire to open Li Qi's door. After Qiao Yue's death, she wanted to do this countless times. She learned how to do it but never did it. She gave the other party a chance.
A snoring sound like an electric drill came from the room. Sheng Xing walked lightly, opened the bedroom door, and quickly covered the other person's mouth and nose with the towel in his hand.
"Woo woo woo."
This was the time Li Qi opened his eyes the widest.
The next morning.
"We're here at the Xingfu Building, which has been the center of controversy and has been boycotted by everyone recently. Mr. Li died in the fire. This building..."
Then the camera turned to the blackened building.
Sheng Xing sipped his tea elegantly, as if he hadn't heard the report. Jiang Shi was willing to ask thoughtfully, "Is this retribution?"
Upon hearing this, Sheng Xing's hand holding the teacup trembled, and the tea in the cup almost spilled out. Fortunately, she quickly returned to normal.
"People who do evil will always get their comeuppance." She put down the teacup.
Jiang Shiyuan smiled and said, "Yes, everything has a price."
Sheng Xing looked at Jiang Shiyuan with a complicated look in her eyes. She said softly, "It's enough if you don't regret it."
It was the only time she ever truly smiled.
"You know, I hate my name."
“I am not the stars filling the sky, but a small pebble in the soil.”
