Loxin Amusement Park
First, there was a buzzing sound in my ears, and then for a moment, the surrounding noise disappeared at the same time.
Gradually, Cheng Nuoxin could only hear the same sentence repeating itself over and over again.
The characters spoken by the man suddenly became obscure and difficult to understand, and it took her a long time to put them together and understand the meaning of the sentence.
"You were there at that time." Cheng Nuoxin recalled a memory from long ago. He remembered that when they were divided into small teams to go out to look for rescue, it was indeed the man in front of him, together with Cai Li and Xue Xiang.
At that time, the two of them staggered back and told Xue Xiang the news that he had fallen off the cliff.
There are many unexpected situations that may happen on the mountain on a rainy day. Even though she was heartbroken at the time, she had to accept it and thought it was just bad luck that befell her.
Now that I think about it, if something really happened, he would be the only person who knew about it besides Cai Li.
Although she found it unbelievable, Cheng Nuoxin subconsciously believed what the man said.
"Go on, don't you want to tell me this?"
The man saw her huddled in her sleeves with her fingers trembling slightly, and knew that his words had achieved the desired effect.
He couldn't help but curl his lips. "That expedition was a plan by Cai Li to get rid of Xue Xiang. Didn't you find it strange at the time? Why did I participate in the expedition even though I wasn't a student at your school?"
When Cheng Nuoxin saw this unfamiliar face outside the tent, he did have a brief moment of doubt, but he quickly put it behind him.
At that time, Cheng Nuoxin certainly would not have thought that this would be related to the accident that happened later.
"Cai Li specifically called you here. How did he plan this?"
The man leaned back with the corners of his lips slightly raised. He had once witnessed a vivid statement fall, but recalling it now did not awaken any conscience.
"Old Cai was lucky, it seemed like everything was going to help him that day. Xue Xiang was standing on the edge of the cliff, looking down, trying to see if he could find any signs of activity down there. He turned his back to us."
As he spoke, he deliberately moved his hands forward to push forward.
"I just saw him standing alone on a rock, with the abyss beneath his feet. If anyone saw that scene, they might want to push him."
Cheng Nuoxin felt her heart tremble and she could hardly feel her body. She was like a ghost floating in the air.
No one could see her existence, and of course no one could realize how helpless she was at the moment.
Knowing that Xue Xiang died a violent death, Cheng Nuoxin felt sorry for him.
But what Cheng Nuoxin couldn't accept even more was Cai Li's personality hidden behind the mask.
Although I accepted Cai Li, I didn't have any other feelings towards him except gratitude and a faint sense of guilt.
After all, so many years have passed, and the two have lived together all day and have completely integrated into each other's lives.
The feelings accumulated from companionship and getting along with each other cannot be ignored at all. When we don’t see each other for a short period of time, we will miss each other.
Cheng Nuoxin really couldn't imagine that the person sleeping next to him every day was a beast in human form.
Now that I think about it, behind those gentle smiles directed at me, there might be very dark and dirty thoughts hidden.
However, she once naively believed that she was able to have the happiness she has now because she was lucky and met a man with such a good temper and character who was willing to silently give for her.
Taking out the mobile phone from the bag, Cheng Nuoxin hesitated when she saw the call interface and was hesitant to press the dial button.
Should I question him? But can I really get the answer I want?
"You know what Cai Li would say, right? There were only three of us at the scene. As long as he can pretend to be calm, he won't let you find any flaws."
The man seemed to know Cai Li very well from his words.
What made Cheng Nuoxin feel even more helpless was that in her opinion, her husband was indeed a flawless person.
It was not until this moment that she felt that she had never truly understood Cai Li.
"What do you want from me?"
Cheng Nuoxin regained some of her sanity. Although she had completely believed what the man said about what happened that year, she was still confused about his purpose.
"Originally, this matter could have been kept secret for a long time, but I didn't expect Lao Cai to be such a disloyal person. He was so rude when I just asked him to borrow some money."
The man was a social friend that Cai Li met in a dance hall during college. His identity did bring some convenience to Cai Li at that time.
But there are huge differences between student days and entering society after graduation.
As Cai Li gained more power and financial resources due to his family background, the last bit of his youthfulness gradually faded away.
The status of the two became very unequal and their attitudes also changed. Usually, Cai Li would assign him some dirty and tiring work that was not presentable.
Over time, men are not used to such changes, but the rewards they receive are quite generous, so it is still within the tolerable range.
But in recent years, Cai Li's business has been constantly being laundered, which means that I have become a useless person to him.
The money he earned became less, and since men usually had a hobby of gambling, he was actually in debt.
On previous occasions, I asked this company's big boss, a good friend, for help, and he gave me hundreds of thousands of dollars without hesitation.
Just when he had tasted the sweetness, the man recently discovered that Cai Li began to be unwilling to see him, which made him realize something was wrong.
Do you want to throw it away after you have used it?
When he came to confront Cai Li, his expression was very calm: "My secretary should have made it very clear to you. If you have nothing to do, don't come to me again."
"You can actually say you're short of money. You don't really think I can believe you, do you? Don't forget, if it weren't for my help back then, you wouldn't be able to live like this."
The man was furious. He was just asking Cai Li for some money, which was the most insignificant thing to him, but he was still so stingy.
"What? Threatening me? Are you planning to report me?" Cai Li said without any worry. "No matter where you report me, the result will be the same, and your current situation will definitely not get any better."
In his philosophy, everything should be done in a give-and-take manner.
If the person has no value to you, there is no need to waste your energy on him.
I had given him alms several times before out of consideration for our old friendship, but now he is actually coming to me again. He really doesn't know the seriousness of the matter. Does he think he is someone he can mess with at will?
Thinking of this, Cai Li's eyes became even more sinister: "This is my last warning to you. Don't appear in front of me again, otherwise... you don't want to know the consequences."
The man knew that Cai Li’s words were true, but he didn’t expect that the person being threatened would become himself.
Maybe someone is already watching you silently at this moment. If you do anything that he considers to be disadvantageous, the other party will not hesitate to eliminate you.
Seeing that the negotiations failed and he couldn't get a penny from here, he could only leave in shame. But he was not willing to disappear like this, so it would be good to disgust Cai Li.
Although he could not make what happened that year public, he thought of a better way.
In order to tell others what’s the point, Cheng Nuoxin, the person involved, must first realize what kind of person her husband is.
Wasn't Cai Li doing all this just to get rid of Cheng Nuoxin's friends at the time and take the opportunity to get promoted? And now it seems that he has indeed done it very successfully.
If I tell Cheng Nuoxin, it will definitely have an impact on his life.
After making the decision, the man started his plan. He came to the vicinity of Cai Li's villa and observed Cheng Nuoxin's movements every day after going out for a few days.
So her recent feeling of being spied on was not an illusion.
He didn't show up in person because he was worried that Cai Li would hire someone to monitor him after their last meeting, so he waited for a few days and finally found the opportunity today. After making sure the surroundings were safe, he appeared with his face covered.
And now it seems that this decision is absolutely correct.
Cheng Nuoxin's reaction meant that she would not let this matter go. At least she could make Cai Li anxious for a while, which would be considered as achieving her goal.
"I don't know what happened between you two before, but the fact that Cai Li was willing to go to such great lengths to plan this matter should also prove to some extent that your relationship with Xue Xiang is very stable."
To the extent that Cai Li had no confidence at all that he could snatch Cheng Nuoxin away from Xue Xiang as long as he was around.
The man showed a somewhat triumphant smile: "Since Cai Li is unwilling to help me, it would be good to make him unhappy. Okay, I've said it all. What to do next is up to you."
That afternoon, Cheng Nuoxin sat alone in the cafe for a long time until the phone rang.
She stared silently at the name displayed on the screen for a while, and finally answered the call.
"Nuo Xin, the amusement park is all set up. If you have time, you can come and take a look. Although it is arranged according to your plan, I still want you to see it in person."
Tomorrow is the seventh anniversary celebration of the amusement park. The reason why Cheng Nuoxin went to the flower shop today was to pick out some bouquets that might be used tomorrow.
The anniversary celebration is not only important for the amusement park, but it is also a memorable day for both of them, so she is willing to make special preparations.
Unfortunately, Cheng Nuoxin will never look forward to such a day again.
Cai Li's usually gentle voice was now filtered through the electric current, as if it had grown countless tentacles, causing Cheng Nuoxin to frown just by listening.
"Okay, I'll be there soon." She tried her best to keep her tone the same as usual.
She really wanted to question Cai Li in person. Could he really kill Xue Xiang so recklessly just for the reason that the man had just given?
That's a life.
This neighborhood is in the city center, and it takes more than half an hour to drive to the amusement park. This time is enough for Cheng Nuo to figure out some things.
The park was now closed, and the car entered the back of the park from the internal staff passage. Before the car stopped, she saw Cai Li waiting in the shadows downstairs.
He was holding an umbrella in his hand. It had just rained a little on the road. He was always so concerned about the details.
But now when he saw such a scene again, Cheng Nuoxin felt a chill down his spine.
