Chapter 121 Betrayal
Click.
Wen Chi accidentally stepped on a dead branch.
The figure with his back to them suddenly turned back warily:
"Who's there... Koike?"
Wen Chi looked expressionlessly at this man who was so familiar to him that his heart sank.
Then he looked at the other person who was staring at the direction while talking on the phone - the house where he and Suisui lived in Taoyuan Village.
"Brother Wang, why are you here?"
Wen Chi spoke in a cold tone, closely watching the other person's every move.
That’s right, the man in black hiding behind a big tree, with half his face covered by a baseball cap and moving in a strange manner, is none other than Wang Qin, the assistant who has followed Wen Chi for more than a year!
Wang Qin quickly put away his phone and laughed dryly twice:
"Xiao Chi, you misunderstood. I just came here to secretly call my girlfriend. You know, the production team's management is quite strict. Usually, staff members are not allowed to call other people during filming to avoid leaks..."
What Wang Qin said was indeed an unwritten rule.
but……
Wen Chi looked at Wang Qin calmly and asked:
"What do you think I misunderstood?"
Wang Qin immediately showed an annoyed expression and tried to make amends:
"I...I'm just afraid you'll misunderstand! Let me explain in advance!"
Wen Chi did not reveal it easily, and pressed on:
"So, you're afraid I might misunderstand something?"
Wang Qin couldn't continue and could only look at Wen Chi with earnest eyes:
"Xiao Chi, you should know very well how I have treated you in the past two years. Are you going to misunderstand me because of such a small matter?"
It was indeed as Wang Qin said, when Wen Chi was in a slump, Xia Kai and Wang Qin were the only two people who stayed by his side, never left, and never took advantage of his misfortune.
Wen Chi truly regards them as friends and brothers.
Therefore, I am also particularly sensitive to the strangeness they exhibit.
He said to Wang Qin:
"You know what? When you're nervous and lying, you talk a lot. But normally you're a quiet person who does things silently."
Wang Qin held the phone tightly, gritted his teeth, and shouted with his neck stiff:
"If you want to misunderstand me like this, then there's nothing I can do! You can go and check it out! Anyway, I'm innocent!"
"good."
Wen Chi was not moved at all.
His reaction obviously surprised Wang Qin:
"Okay... okay? You say okay?"
Wen Chi curled his lips and looked at the person he once trusted with sarcasm:
"Didn't you tell me to investigate? Then I'll do a thorough investigation and clear your name. Give me your phone."
Wang Qin tightly grasped the phone and refused to give it to the owner, his eyes filled with panic.
"Xiao Chi, you...you..."
Wen Chi said coldly:
"You act like you're guilty."
Wang Qin had no choice but to hand over his phone.
After getting the phone, Wen Chi's cold eyes turned gentle again when they left Wang Qin and fell on Sui Sui.
"Don't be afraid, wait for me."
Fortunately, he could only see frank curiosity in Suisui's eyes, and no fear or anything like that.
So Wen Chi could investigate this matter with more confidence!
He was holding back his anger but trying hard not to explode.
Unlocking Wang Qin's phone, he first opened the address book and looked through the recent call records.
Wen Chi appeared so suddenly that Wang Qin didn't have time to deal with it, and the call records were almost intact.
In the past two days, he has been talking frequently to a number called "Xiao Li".
Wen Chi said to Wang Qin:
"If you want to prove your innocence, then be quiet. Otherwise, it will only confirm your suspicion!"
Then dial the number and turn on the speaker.
After the call was connected, there was silence on the other end.
Wen Chi asked, his tone changing in an instant:
"Hello, are you a friend of the owner of this phone? I just found his phone and don't know how to return it to him."
Wang Qin opened his mouth to say something, but was stopped by Wen Chi's cold, warning look.
Someone spoke on the other end of the phone. It was a female voice:
"Yes, I'm the owner's girlfriend. This guy is so careless! Where did he drop his phone? I asked him to get it..."
Pop.
Wen Chi hung up the phone decisively.
Wang Qin was obviously relieved and smiled:
"Look! This is really my girlfriend!"
Wen Chi did not give up, but looked through Wang Qin's text messages, Fetion, etc. again.
There was still nothing unusual, it was extremely clean.
Wang Qin became increasingly excited:
"I already said I wasn't lying! How long are you going to doubt me?"
Wen Chi pursed his lips and finally called Xia Kai to tell him about it.
He was talking into his phone while looking at the furious Wang Qin:
"Brother Xia, please investigate. If it is really my misunderstanding, then I can kneel down or apologize to Wang Qin in public."
But what if there is no misunderstanding? Wen Chi did not say.
But everyone knows the consequences.
Wang Qin panicked completely, snatched the phone back, and yelled at Wen Chi:
"Wen Chi! I really misjudged you! Even when you were in the most difficult time, I never thought of leaving you. But now that your career is on the rise, you turn around and doubt me? Fine, fine, at worst I'll just quit!"
Wang Qin went down the mountain angrily, as if he was the one who suffered the injustice!
Suisui looked at Wang Qin's back and pouted:
"Brother, he's lying."
Wen Chi also looked in that direction and said softly:
"I know."
Every year I look up to see the Wenchi Pond.
It seemed like I saw a flash of...tears from the corner of his eyes?
"elder brother……"
Are you crying?
Suisui wrapped her small hand around Wen Chi's little finger and gently tugged it.
Wen Chi lowered his head to comfort her and smiled nonchalantly:
"It's okay, Sui Sui, I just discovered something."
Sui Sui tilted his little head in confusion.
Wen Chi smiled and said casually:
"Brother suddenly realized that his acting skills are quite good. The tone he used when he was talking on the phone just now was very similar to the person he was talking to."
Sui Sui still blinked in confusion.
Wen Chi couldn't hold back his laughter anymore, and murmured:
"I think I could try to be an actor..."
But the sadness in his eyes clearly said something else.
Sui Sui calls softly:
"elder brother……"
Wen Chi really couldn't help it.
He squatted down and hugged Suisui, trying to draw comfort from her little body.
Sui Sui imitated what she saw on TV, raised her short arms with great effort, and patted Wen Chi on the back to comfort him:
"It's okay! Brother still has Sui Sui!"
"Yeah, I still have you."
Wen Chi smiled sincerely this time.
He raised his big hand and ruffled Sui Sui's little hair, causing Sui Sui to scream and yell. She jumped up in anger and wanted to hit him!
As a result, Wen Chi reached out and picked up Sui Sui, and started spinning around!
Sui Sui was so excited that she screamed and laughed out loud, and her hair was so messy that it was unbearable to look at!
While feeling dizzy, doubts suddenly popped up in Sui Sui's little head:
Just now she noticed a faint stench on that person, as if she had smelled it somewhere before.
Where is this place... Ah! I feel dizzy!
