Chapter 175 Airport Rebooking
At the same time, in Beijing.
After meeting Chen Jingbai, Shi Wang had already decided to go back to Xingguo.
The latest column of messages on his WeChat list were all affectionate greetings from Xu Moli.
Among them, the most frequently appearing words are "I miss you" and "When will you come back?"
But when I get a response, it is always perfunctory words such as "hmm", "okay", or "right away".
He never spoke much, and it seemed that getting a response from him was already a great honor. Xu Moli on the other end of the phone was still enjoying it.
Finally, Shi Wang was in the waiting hall. After perfunctorily replying to Xu Moli's brief questions with a few words, he closed his eyes tiredly.
He didn't know what he was thinking. His handsome and delicate eyebrows were frowned and trembling slightly, until someone next to him suddenly woke him up.
"Hello handsome, can you add me on WeChat?"
Shi Wang raised his eyelids slightly and saw a girl with pigtails and a blushing face looking at him with suppressed excitement.
For a moment, Shi Wang suddenly recalled the scene when he and Jiang Wanning met for the first time.
At that time, he had already graduated from school and returned to school to attend a symposium and speech. It was also on such an afternoon. Under the green corridor outside the school playground, the bright girl who was one grade younger than him seemed to be looking at him shyly and expectantly.
no.
At that time, he had not yet experienced the hardships of society and was at an age of arrogance. Apart from his career, he also believed that he did not want to have emotional disputes with any woman.
Moreover, Shi Wang also thought that a girl who looked "well-behaved and weak" like Jiang Wanning would definitely be heartbroken after being rejected.
Besides, they are at the age where they need to save face, so from now on, the two of them will definitely not have any contact with each other.
It's a one-time solution.
But what Shi Wang never expected was that Jiang Wanning did not feel frustrated at all. Instead, she became more and more courageous towards him.
...It's like a plaster that can't be shaken off.
Later, Shi Wang gradually accepted this relationship. He was used to being pursued, and subconsciously thought that this was the way this relationship should be and it was natural.
But there are some things that people only feel are precious when they realize they are about to lose them.
Thinking of this, Shi Wang felt an inexplicable bitterness in his heart.
So much so that the cold rejection that was on the tip of his tongue suddenly changed his tone: "Sorry, my plane is about to take off."
His voice was still as indifferent as before, and as if to prove his words, the boarding announcement for Star Country was heard in the waiting room.
He picked up the briefcase and left.
The girl who was left behind by him still had a blush on her face when she saw this, and she excitedly shared her experience with her friends who came later.
"He rejected me."
“But he’s so gentle.”
"How can someone be so beautiful and so gentle!?"
gentle?
This was probably the first time in his life that he heard such an adjective used to describe himself, and a hint of sarcasm appeared on his lips.
Just as he was about to walk into the boarding gate, the cell phone he had placed in his briefcase suddenly rang.
Seeing that there were still about ten minutes left before boarding, Shi Wang paused and walked to an empty corner to answer the phone.
"Hello?"
It was an unfamiliar number from Singapore.
The moment the call was connected, a noisy background sound mixed with the sound of sharp wind came from the other end.
Shi Wang waited for a few seconds but still didn't get a reply from the other party. He frowned and was about to hang up the phone when he finally heard the anxious voice of a middle-aged man with obvious heavy breathing.
"Mr. Shi, you really hurt me so much!"
The middle-aged man's voice was heavy, as if he had just experienced a fierce chase. He lowered his voice and spoke anxiously to Shi Wang, "Who are these people you asked me to investigate?!"
"Ever since I last met you in that coffee shop, I haven't been able to rest at all these days!"
The call was actually from the private detective that Shi Wang had previously commissioned in Singapore.
At this moment, he was listening to the other person's voice, and his brows, which were already full of worries, were furrowed even deeper. "Where are you now?"
"I can't tell you that."
For the sake of his own life, the middle-aged man sighed: "I have only investigated one hospital, and I don't want the remaining balance. I can't continue to investigate the rest."
"Don't look for me anymore, and don't contact me anymore!!"
"You..." He listened to the obviously resolute words of the private detective on the other side and wanted to say something else, but what was waiting for him was the dead tone after the other party quickly hung up the phone.
When he tried to call back, the number displayed was also busy, indicating that the number was out of service.
At this moment, Shi Wang received a new text message on his screen, which was the address of the hospital that the private detective had just mentioned to him.
A private people's hospital in Dongcheng District, Shenzhen.
The location is a bit far from the central area of Shenzhen, but Shi Wang remembered that this hospital is a private hospital that specializes in serving the powerful and wealthy. Those who can go there for medical treatment are either rich or noble.
At this, Shi Wang suddenly thought of something and his eyes narrowed dangerously.
At the same time, he turned back from the boarding gate without hesitation and went to the airport service platform.
"Hello, I want to rebook a flight to Shenzhen, the earliest one."
"Okay sir, I'll do it for you now."
Seeing the flight attendant at the counter turn around and busily help him with the process, Shi Wang's bony fingers tapped lightly on the marble table.
At this moment, his eyes, which had always been cold, were brewing a dangerous storm.
Xu Moli.
Sometimes I have false thoughts.
I hope the truth of the matter is not what I think.
......
At about the same time, it was already late at night in Star Country.
Shi Wang was away these few days, and Xu Moli lived alone in the hotel. Apart from feeling a little lonely, she actually lived a very comfortable life.
Today she did the same as usual. She first sent a caring message to the man as usual, then went to the bathroom to wash up, humming a tune in a good mood.
By the time she had tidied herself up and came out again, it was almost eleven o'clock in the evening in Singapore.
Thinking that Shi Wang might be back tomorrow, she felt better and picked up her phone again.
But the next moment, the nearly a dozen missed calls displayed on the mobile phone screen made Xu Moli's mood sink to the bottom in an instant.
