Chapter 242: My Condolences



Chapter 242 My condolences

Youan put one hand on the door frame. He was half a head taller than Xu Qi, and this made him look like he was looking down on him.

"Let's investigate," he said with a smile.

"Investigating what?" He asked with an awkward smile, but he knew that the two men were here to investigate what happened that day.

Lan Jin slapped his arm away and said, "Your wife should have told you, don't pretend to be ignorant here."

After that, the two of them walked in. Looking at the environment inside, Lan Jin said with a smile, "It's such a miserable life."

"What are you doing here? You are not welcome here!" Wang Feng's spines stood up like a hedgehog after seeing the two of them.

You An pulled up a chair, took out a tissue, wiped it, and put another one on top before sitting down. "I'll tell you later whether you're welcome or not. Did you go to the hotel at four o'clock in the afternoon on the 16th?"

After hearing this, she immediately felt guilty.

"I didn't go there, don't frame me here!"

"I don't know whether it was a frame-up or not, but your shadow was in the surveillance video." You An crossed his legs, propped up his chin and looked at her.

Wang Feng still didn't admit it, but it could be seen from her expression and look.

She felt guilty at this time, and Xu Qi covered for her, "What are you talking about? My wife was at home all day that day!"

"All the time?" Lan Jin, who had checked Wang Feng's travel schedule that day, looked at him and sneered, "I left at two in the afternoon, went to the supermarket to buy a hat, and then took a bus to the North District."

"She went straight to the hotel. You told me she hadn't been out of the house all day?"

I didn't expect that they knew all this. Xu Qi didn't know what to say for a moment.

Wang Feng stopped pretending and said directly, "Yes, it's me. What can I do for you?"

"Or you said you wanted to send me to prison!"

"This... should be possible. I guess you don't have the money to compensate for the wedding dress." Youan said, standing up.

In their current situation, it is impossible for them to come up with the money.

Lan Jin asked again: "Where are the broken diamonds you took away?"

"Why should I tell you?" Wang Feng said.

"Tsk, it's okay if you don't tell me. I'll just ask the boss you sold it to and you'll know." After Lan Jin finished speaking, he patted Youan's shoulder and walked out.

After they left, Xu Qi slapped her in the face again, "You are really crazy!"

She covered her cheeks and looked at him in disbelief, "You hit me again!" she shouted angrily.

"Xu Qi, if you hit me one more time, we will get divorced!" she yelled.

"Leave me, it's better to leave me!" He also shouted back at her, "You have ruined our happy family like this!"

"How dare you say you don't have a share?" Wang Feng replied, not to be outdone, "Aren't you the head of the family? We didn't look at you when we made the decision. You agreed to many things!"

"But I didn't ask you to ruin someone else's wedding!"

"How can that bastard live happily while we have to stay here?"

The two of them quarreled fiercely, and finally Xu Qi decided not to argue with her and went out with his wallet.

For a moment, she was the only one left in the rental house. She sat on a chair and cried out of breath.

"Is it my fault? Is it my fault alone that things have turned out like this?" She talked to herself. She was already mentally unstable, and now she was even more unstable after the quarrel.

Xu Qi sat in the milk tea shop downstairs and ordered a cup of milk tea and sat there until the evening. When he figured it out and went to the vegetable market to buy vegetables, he found that Wang Feng was gone from the house.

"Fuck!" Xu Qi couldn't help but burst out, "Where did you go again?"

After putting the food down, he immediately ran out to look for the person, but he still couldn't find him after searching all night. He was standing on the side of the road again, smoking a cigarette and frowning.

"I heard that someone jumped into the river and has not been found yet."

"Who is so depressed?"

"Well... I heard it was a middle-aged woman wearing dark red clothes and black pants."

"A middle-aged woman?" The young man couldn't believe it. "That's impossible. A middle-aged woman is so depressed. What happened?"

“I don’t quite understand.”

Listening to their conversation, Xu Qi threw away his cigarette and ran to the riverside. When he got to the riverside, he saw many firefighters lighting lights and cleaning the place.

"Comrade police officer, is the person who jumped into the river a middle-aged woman wearing a dark red, somewhat whitish top and black pants?" Xu Qi asked the police officer.

The police officer wanted to ask him to leave, but after hearing his question, he nodded and asked, "Yes, who is she to you?"

After hearing the police officer's confirmation, Xu Qi couldn't stand it anymore and took two steps back and fell to the ground.

"She...she...she is my wife!" Xu said this while crying.

When the police officer heard that it was the family member of the man who jumped into the river, he gave him the items he had found and asked, "Are these your wife's?"

When he saw the familiar ring and bracelet, he cried even harder.

"Yes...they are all my wife's!" He cried while grabbing them.

He really couldn't understand why his wife would jump into the river. She was living a good life, so why would she be so upset?

The river was flowing fast and covered a large area. After a whole night of searching, we found nothing and even the body.

After hearing the news, Xu Qi cried even harder. He couldn't even bring back his wife's body!

"Please accept my condolences." The police comrade comforted him.

Xu Qi couldn't accept this fact, he fainted in the police station without catching his breath. This frightened the police comrades, and they rushed him to the hospital.

When he woke up, he found himself lying on a hospital bed with an IV drip, and sitting next to him was his daughter-in-law who had divorced his son.

After seeing him wake up, Xiaolan stood up and said, "I've paid for the medical expenses. I'll go back when you wake up. The dead cannot be resurrected. Please accept my condolences."

When Xiaolan was about to leave the ward, he stopped her and looked at the ceiling with empty eyes and asked, "Did we really do something wrong before?"

"Wrong, not only wrong, but extremely wrong." Xiaolan answered without hesitation.

"Really..."

The man who had lived with Xiaolan for most of his life burst into tears at this moment. He couldn't blame anyone else for what had happened. If anyone had to blame someone, it was only that they had failed to educate Xu Feng well, which led to him going astray.

And these are all retributions from God to them!

Xiaolan is such a good daughter-in-law, but they don't cherish her.

"It's all retribution, it's all retribution!" he kept muttering.

Xu Qi is lonely. His wife jumped into the river and died. His son is in prison and he doesn't know when he will be released. He can't see his only granddaughter. Now he is all alone.

Two days after learning the news of Wang Feng's death, Lan Jin originally wanted to send her a lawyer's letter to warn her, but was told that she was already dead.

Dead...that woman is dead?

Lan Jin couldn't quite believe it.

He hurried to check and found out that on the day they returned, she was mentally traumatized and jumped into the river out of despair.

When Youan heard the news, he couldn't believe it. "Life is so unpredictable. I didn't expect to hear about her death just two days ago."

When they told Gu Fei and the others the news, they didn't expect it to happen so suddenly.

"So what do you want to do now, my wife?" Song Tingxuan asked, holding Gu Fei's waist and resting his chin on her shoulder.

"What else can I do? Now that she's gone, can I go down and settle the score with her?" Gu Fei complained, "But the dead are the greatest, so let's forget about it."

"Um."

After telling Xu Hai about this, Xu Hai said nothing but took his things to the hospital to visit his uncle the next day.

Xu Qi didn't expect him to come back and look at him, "Why are you here?"

"Come and see you." He put the fruit basket aside and said to the person lying on the hospital bed.

He had consulted a doctor before coming in. He had some lung problems from long-term smoking and needed treatment.

After saying this, both of them fell silent. Finally, Xu Hai spoke up, "Please accept my condolences. The body will be found. Don't worry."

"Hmm." He looked like a zombie at this moment, with no interest in anything.

Xu Hai peeled an apple for him and said, "You should take good care of your illness."

"What's the point of being cured?" He said in despair, covering his eyes. The person beside him was gone, and his son was in prison. Even if he was cured, he would still be alone.

"It's better to be alive than dead. Your son has been in prison for twenty years. You are only fifty-eight years old now. If you hold on, you will be able to see him."

"Really?"

"Um."

After the two chatted for a while, Xu Hai put the 100,000 yuan in front of him and said, "Here's the money."

"I won't take it." Xu Qi shook his head and refused, "This is your money, I can't take it."

"Although I love your family, I don't want you to die." Xu Hai looked at him and said, "So live well, it's good to live well."

After putting the money down, he left. As soon as he walked out, he met Xiaolan holding a child.

"Ms. Lin, why are you here like this?" he asked.

Xiaolan just smiled and said, "I just looked at him."

After all, Xu Qi was the only one who helped her when she was pregnant, although most of the time she was ordered around by Wang Feng.

But as long as she was not at home, Xu Qi would help her hang clothes, mop the floor, and cook for her. Otherwise, she would not be able to give birth to Lingling safely. He would also secretly come to help her during her confinement.

Xiaolan kept it in mind, otherwise she wouldn't have rushed over when she received the call saying that he had collapsed in the hospital.

"Well, spend more time with him, and enlighten him, so that he can have more ideas about this world." After Xu Hai said this to her, he took out two thousand yuan from his pocket and handed it to her, saying, "Here, please take care of him for a few days. This is the cash I have on me, and it may be a little too little. Add me on WeChat and I'll transfer it to you."

Xiaolan only took the two thousand in cash and said, "This is enough."

After explaining everything, Xu Hai went back, hoping that he could recover from his illness.

Gu Fei was afraid that he was unhappy, so he went out of his way to chat with him.

"Do you want to go play at the company tomorrow? I tell you it's fun." Gu Fei tried to find a topic to talk to him.

Xu Hai looked at his phone and shook his head, saying, "How can this company be interesting? Besides, I still have to look for a job."

"Looking for a job?" Gu Fei asked, looking at his phone, "About internship?"

"Yes."

"Come to our company. You're studying computer science anyway. Come and help your Master Song. I'll ask him to offer you a high salary." Gu Fei put his arm around his shoulder and smiled slyly.

This is to send Xu Haikeng to their experimental department.

High salary, these three words made Xu Hai look at her and ask seriously: "Madam boss, how much salary do you want the boss to give me?"

"Fifty thousand a month?" she said uncertainly.

"Okay!" Xu Hai agreed. The six-month internship had already passed one month, leaving five months.

Two hundred and fifty thousand, if he works hard he will have the down payment.

"Honey, is 50,000 yuan a salary okay?" She looked up and asked him when she saw Song Tingxuan coming down.

Song Tingxuan's capitalist attitude came to the fore at this point. "What kind of job do you plan to give him?"

"He studied computer science, and I want him to go to the experimental department." Gu Fei patted him on the shoulder and recommended him.

“Do you have any work experience?”

"no."

"You're new here, you need someone to guide you." Song Tingxuan commented, and then he asked, "Can you endure hardship and stay up late?"

"able."

"Well, that's fine." Song Tingxuan nodded, "Okay, come to work tomorrow."

"How much is the salary?" Xu Hai asked, "How many hours does this job require? Is there overtime pay? How many days off do you get per month?"

"The salary is 50,000 yuan, the workday is eight hours, overtime is voluntary, overtime is paid, and you can have two days off or four days off a month. The salary for two days off is less, and the salary for four days off a month is more."

"Pay five insurances?"

"pay."

"Okay, I'll report tomorrow." Xu Hai stood up and said to Song Tingxuan, "Hello, boss!"

Gu Fei next to him couldn't help laughing. This was an on-the-spot interview.

"Stop chatting, let's go eat." She stood up and took Song Tingxuan's hand and walked towards the dining table, "Call me hum."

Hengheng is really practicing skateboarding desperately now, without any slack. He said he would keep insisting on winning the championship. "You've eaten, but you're still practicing? Aren't you hungry?" Xu Hai shouted at Hengheng.

"It's time for dinner!" He slid in front of Xu Hai and said with a smile, his forehead was covered with sweat and his clothes were also wet with sweat.

"Hurry up." He threw the towel in the maid's hand on his head and asked him to wipe his hair.

"Are you thirsty?"

He hummed and replied: "Thirsty." Xu Hai squeezed the mineral water for him and said, "Drink it."

The two of them came in reluctantly from outside. They were kissing at the dining table.

"Ahem, how about we wait a little longer?" Xu Hai said awkwardly, rubbing Hengheng's shoulder.

It's really not a good thing to run into someone else's good thing.

"What are you waiting for? I'm hungry. I need to practice after eating!" Hengheng didn't want to wait. Time was running out. The competition would start next year. He started much slower than others and needed to hurry up to practice.

"What are you doing there? Come over and have dinner." Gu Fei's voice rang out, and her cheeks were a little red at this time.
