Chapter 1003 What qualifications do you have to erect a monument for her?
When Gong Qing hurried over, the tombstone collapsed with a loud bang, and the photo of Gu Wanqiu on the tombstone fell into the soil. The smiling face was split in the middle, as if it was half crying and half laughing.
Gong Qing suddenly stopped, and for a moment, it was as if his soul was drained out. He stood there in a daze, staring at the tombstone on the ground with bloodshot eyes.
He reacted and quickly rushed towards Li Jinxing, but was stopped by his men before he reached him.
Two fists are no match for four hands, not to mention there are four people in front of him, with eight hands. Gong Qing struggled hard, but even with his hands broken and dislocated, he couldn't break free. He was powerless to resist and could only scream at the top of his lungs.
"Li Jinxing! What right did you have to overturn Wanqiu's tombstone? Why did you do this? She's dead, and you won't let her rest in peace! You won't let her go! How can you be so cruel!"
Li Jinxing lowered his eyes and looked at Gong Qing who was bent over due to being suppressed. A hint of annoyance appeared in his indifferent eyes and his brows were tightly furrowed.
"Why? I haven't even asked you yet, with your qualifications, why should you build a tomb for Gu Wanqiu, and in what capacity do you erect a tombstone for her!" Even if Gu Wanqiu was really dead, he should be the one to build the tomb and erect the tombstone. After all, he and Gu Wanqiu were a couple who had been married in marriage.
Gong Qing was furious, his voice barely choking as he forced it out of his throat. "Wanqiu is dead. I've been looking for her for five years, five whole years, and I gave up. She didn't have a good life when she was alive, she couldn't even return home. Now after she's dead, do you want her to become a lonely ghost, with no place to settle down?"
"I won't let you curse her!" Li Jinxing rushed forward and grabbed Gong Qing's collar. "Just because you haven't found her doesn't prove she's dead. She's not dead!"
Pulled by the collar, Gong Qing was forced to look up, his face full of sarcasm: "Li Jinxing, how long are you going to deceive yourself? You gave up on her five years ago, what right do you have to ask me to build a tomb and a monument for her? Besides, the police have already..."
"Bullshit!" Li Jinxing rudely interrupted Gong Qing before he could finish his words. "I gave up looking for her, not because I was convinced she was dead, but because I firmly believed she was still alive. She was deliberately avoiding me and didn't come out. How could I find someone who deliberately avoided me? And don't use the police's excuse to evade me. The fact that they didn't find the body proves she's not dead. You can't build a tomb or erect a monument for her without my permission! I'll smash it every time I see it! You admit she's dead, but are her bones buried under this loess? Tell me!"
Li Jinxing usually doesn't get angry easily, but once he does, he's like a raging lion, as if he wants to tear the person in front of him into pieces.
This kind of Li Jinxing makes everyone feel scared. At the age of 26, he is no longer the 21-year-old Li Jinxing.
The young Li Jinxing has a deterrent power that always makes people ignore his age. Now at the age of 26, his deterrent power is like a volcanic eruption. It is usually suppressed, but once it erupts, the power seems to be able to kill people instantly.
Several bodyguards lowered their heads and dared not look at Li Jinxing's ugly face.
Gong Qing gritted his teeth so hard that veins popped out on his forehead and neck. In the confrontation with Li Jinxing, he was always the one at a disadvantage, whether it was five years ago or five years later. So what if he was unwilling? Some things seemed to be innate. Talent was such a annoying thing to talk about.
He gritted his teeth and slowed his breathing, then slowly looked into Li Jinxing's eyes and spoke word by word, "You're right. There really is no Wanqiu's body here, but Li Jinxing... I think you should know very well that Wanqiu is gone. With your great ability, how could you not find her? You didn't look for her because you were really afraid of finding out about her death. You're a coward, so cowardly that you can't even accept her death. Were the words I said back then true? She died because you forced her to death. You killed her. It's been five years, and you still refuse to admit it..."
"Say it again?" Li Jinxing loosened his collar and grabbed Gong Qing's neck, pinching his Adam's apple. The veins on the back of his hand bulged, and it seemed that if he used a little more force, he could strangle him to death.
Gong Qing's breathing was a little difficult, his face was strange. He said with difficulty: "Don't tell me once, let me tell you ten thousand times. The surveillance camera showed that Wanqiu boarded that ship, and the ship accidentally fell into the sea. Dozens of people were killed, and no one survived. On that night five years ago, no one rescued her, and she couldn't swim, so it was impossible for her to save herself..."
His face had turned pale from being pinched by Li Jinxing. Gong Qing gave a bitter smile, and the corners of his lips raised into a hard arc. That kind of smile that couldn't reach his eyes was uglier than crying, and it revealed a sense of sadness.
"Li Jinxing, you've been with Wanqiu longer than I have. You should know that she can't swim and she has a fear of the deep sea. What could have forced her to escape by boat?"
Gu Wanqiu originally did not have a fear of the deep sea. She even liked the fish in the sea and thought they were very free. Later, after the incident with Li Jinxing on the boat on her eighteenth birthday, the boat was shaking violently that night. She fell into the deep sea in her nightmare, as if she was swallowed by a giant creature. From then on, she began to fear the deep sea.
The reason why she has a fear of the deep sea is because of Li Jinxing.
The reason why she wanted to leave by boat at night was because of Li Jinxing.
Her disappearance is closely related to Li Jinxing.
So, she was pushed away step by step by Li Jinxing. What could he do to keep her?
Even if he had conceived two children through in vitro fertilization, Gu Wanqiu would not have stayed because of the children.
Li Jinxing felt like being poured with a basin of ice water from head to toe. A cold feeling suddenly rushed from the soles of his feet to his brain. The area where his temples were connected to his forehead felt like it was about to explode with pain. Every cell in his body was clamoring. The hand that was holding Gong Qing suddenly loosened, and in an instant, all the strength in his body was gone.
He didn't know what to say. What Gong Qing said was like a knife that unfolded the dream fantasy he had woven for five years.
At this moment, he was like a programmed robot, and could only utter one sentence: "She's not dead, she's not dead..."
Gong Qing was pushed by Li Jinxing and staggered to the ground. He subconsciously opened his mouth to breathe but choked on a breath of cold air. After a dry cough for a while, tears flowed from Gong Qing's scarlet eyes.
"It's your business if you don't believe she's dead, and it's my business if I want her to be buried in peace. We don't interfere with each other's business."
Li Jinxing quickly came to his senses and turned back into the arrogant and ruthless Li Jinxing. He stared down at Gong Qing with contempt in his eyes.
