Chapter 967 Don’t worry, everything is fine
When the news broke that Li Jinxing had died, she felt a little sad, thinking it was such a pity that Li Jinxing died at such a young age with such a promising career.
She would not think too much about the mistakes Li Jinxing made. She just felt that he was someone she knew, the boss who hired her, and who had helped her before. Based on these relationships, she would indeed feel sad about his death.
Mrs. Liu is a very simple person and doesn't have the brainpower to think about too many complicated things. When she saw the living Li Jinxing, she subconsciously thought, this person... can he come back to life?
"Mr. Li... Mr. Li, you're not dead?" She had so many questions. Did Li Jinxing really commit so many crimes to be in prison? She wanted to know why the news said he was dead. She wanted to know how he got out of prison. She really wanted to know why the two camellia trees in the yard were cut down.
"I had someone bring you here because I wanted to ask about Gu Wanqiu."
Mrs. Liu felt a pang of choking in her heart. She more or less knew that Li Jinxing was imprisoned in part because of Gu Wanqiu. She had placed all her hopes on He Tian and Zhou Yi today, but she never thought... they would actually bring her to find Li Jinxing.
Gu Wanqiu hates Li Jinxing, and there is hatred between them. Gu Wanqiu sent Li Jinxing to prison. According to Li Jinxing's character, he would definitely take revenge on Gu Wanqiu.
Asking Li Jinxing to find Gu Wanqiu, wouldn't that be like sending a sheep into the wolf's mouth?
For a moment, Mrs. Liu thought too much. She was not good at hiding anything. Whatever she was thinking would show on her face. Facing the deep and meticulous Li Jinxing, nothing could escape his eyes.
Mrs. Liu replied, "I don't have any news about Miss Gu either. Mr. Li, whatever you want to ask, I will tell you everything I know."
"What did Gu Wanqiu say to you before she left?" Li Jinxing stood in front of her with his back to the light source. His handsome face looked extremely gloomy. He was too tall. Mrs. Liu was 1.6 meters tall, and Li Jinxing was 1.9 meters tall. Looking down at someone from such a high position would involuntarily exude a sense of deterrence, making people obey him.
Mrs. Liu felt exactly like this at the moment. She clearly didn't want to say anything, but facing Li Jinxing's gaze and questioning tone, she said, "She just said she wanted to travel and look around, and come back by late autumn at the latest."
"Besides that?"
Mrs. Liu thought for a moment, then shook her head. "No, she didn't take many clothes with her when she left, and she didn't arrange for anyone or a car to accompany her. She signed up for a tour group online. In July, she suddenly mentioned that she wanted to go out and play. A car came to pick her up at five in the morning. She was with a tour group, but I don't know where she was going. Miss Gu told me that the place she was going might be quite remote, and there was a possibility of losing contact."
"You mean you can't contact Gu Wanqiu now?"
Mrs. Liu paused, then shook her head. She was telling the truth. Thinking about it carefully, there was no need for her to hide anything from Li Jinxing.
"I just realized today that I can't contact Miss Gu. Although she texts me every day at 7 o'clock, those texts are sent on a scheduled basis. No one answers when I call, and I don't know how she is doing now."
After saying that, Mrs. Liu felt a little sad again. Gu Wanqiu's scheduled text messages every day were just to prevent her from worrying.
"Give me your phone."
After hesitating for a moment, Mrs. Liu handed over her cell phone.
The mobile phone used by Mrs. Liu is an elderly one. She is a little farsighted, and the characters are very large, which looks a bit abrupt on the small screen of the phone.
Li Jinxing pressed the keys, feeling a little uncomfortable, but he quickly reacted and quickly pressed the text message page.
On it was a text message from Gu Wanqiu, and he flipped to the top.
The time is July 2nd.
Today is July 29th. Generally speaking, it has not been a month since Gu Wanqiu left.
——"Mrs. Liu, I went to the beach today and picked up a lot of shells. It's hot here during the day, but very cool at night. There are so many stars. I like it here very much."
——"I had seafood fried rice today. It tasted great. I'm used to it. I'm not hungry. Don't worry about me."
——"The shells you pick up can be used to make wind chimes."
——"I forgot to put on sunscreen, so I got a bit tanned. I need to prepare more clothes, as it will be a bit cold at night."
"The pancakes you made, Madam Liu, are so delicious. We've already eaten them all today. You also have beef sauce. As soon as I opened it, everyone around me smelled the aroma and wanted to try it. I only have a small bottle, so I don't want to give it to them, but I'm afraid they'll say I'm stingy."
——"The beef sauce you make is so delicious that they all want to buy it. I think you can open a store. Once you become famous, you can find someone to invest in building a factory for wholesale."
——"Dried fruits and cookies are delicious too. I eat them secretly so they won't find out."
——"The snow-capped mountains are beautiful, but they're too cold. I might only be able to stay for one day."
——"I suddenly realized that we are all frogs in the well, but the well openings are different sizes. I want to visit different places, eat different foods, and enjoy a different life."
——"I missed you today too. I want to eat the food you cooked. Sister Liu, you must take good care of yourself."
——"Don't miss me too much. If you really can't help missing me, just look at my photos. After looking at the photos, go to sleep. Who knows, I might appear in your dreams."
…
"Mrs. Liu, there are so many pitiful women in the world. After I die, I will donate my inheritance to set up a charity to help women, those who can't go to school, those who are abused at home, divorced single mothers, and women who work hard to make money for their children... I once did a bad thing, and there is a reason for evil deeds. If you knew what I was like before, I don't think you would like me anymore."
——"I have to be more frugal with my dried fruits. Every time I think of you, I can't help but eat a piece. I'm almost done with the whole bag."
——"Today I ate steamed buns from the roadside. Everyone said they were delicious. I don't think they were as good as yours, not even one tenth as good. I told them, but they didn't believe me. They even laughed at me and called me a mama's girl who ran away from home."
"Sometimes I wonder if you were really my mother. Have you taken our daughter to stay with us while I'm away? We've rented the ocean view house for a year, and now it's summer, perfect for fun. Don't worry about breaking anything. I've already paid what I owe, and even if something breaks, I won't ask you to pay for it."
——"It must be boring to be alone at home, right? Bring your daughter to live and play with you, then you won't be bored."
——"I think your daughter must be better than me. She must be more obedient, gentle, kind, and sensible than me..."
…
——"Mrs. Liu, I have prepared a gift for you. You will probably receive it next month."
——"Don't worry, everything is fine."
