Chapter 57
Gu Cunxi parked the car downstairs, sat quietly in the car, took out a cigarette from the cigarette box, lit it, looked at the number on the note, and fell into deep thought.
Chen Jiamao's words kept ringing in his ears, lingering, "Without power and financial resources, let alone protecting the people you love, you can't even protect yourself!"
Thinking of Chen Feng, Gu Cunxi was filled with indignation. She hated herself for being so weak. She gripped the steering wheel with her right hand more tightly, her knuckles turning white. The squeaking sound coming from her palm was a bit harsh in the quiet and narrow car.
Gu Cunxi took out the note with the phone number written on it again, hesitated for a moment, and dialed it. The other party was picked up quickly. The other party spoke first, as if he had expected everything.
"Is it Miss Gu?"
"Hello, I'm Gu Cunxi, a friend of Chen Jiamao," Cunxi replied calmly.
"Hello, Miss Gu, I didn't expect you to call so soon. Mr. Chen has already told me about you. Don't worry, if you need any help, I will do my best." The man said in a calm tone with a hint of vicissitudes of life.
"Thank you, I do have something I want to ask you for help with. I want you to help me find someone."
"The person Miss Gu wants to investigate is called Chen Feng?" the man asked.
Gu Cunxi was slightly startled, then continued: "Not bad! But I don't want basic information about this person."
"I understand what Miss Gu means! Mr. Chen has also asked me to investigate this person, but there has been no progress so far. If there is any progress, I will contact you immediately."
Gu Cunxi didn't expect Chen Jiamao to continue investigating Chen Feng.
The man on the other side hung up the phone and immediately contacted Chen Jiamao
"Mr. Chen, as you expected, Miss Gu just called and wants to investigate that person."
"Okay, do your best to investigate! Report to me immediately after you find anything related to Chen Feng."
Chen Jiamao was very glad that Gu Cunxi was willing to accept his help. If it were in the past, she would have refused without a second thought, being proud and conceited...
I hope that through Su Gan's investigation, I can catch Chen Feng's handle, so that when the matter between Cunxi and that woman is exposed to the public, Chen Feng will not be slaughtered at will, at least he can be afraid! Chen Jiamao thought so, looking out the window with deep eyes. In fact, his original intention was not to help Cunxi and that woman. Chen Jiamao thought that he was not yet able to be so magnanimous as to help the person he loved to be with someone else. He did this just to keep a handle for Cunxi to protect himself.
When Gu Cunxi returned home, it was almost late at night. Pei Yin was half leaning on the sofa, holding the rabbit doll that Cunxi bought in her arms, sleeping quietly. The gloomy mood just now was swept away after seeing Pei Yin, and it was followed by warmth. Cunxi suddenly understood that feeling. Even if facing the outside world, even if there are too many difficulties, helplessness and sadness, it is all worth it when you return home and see the person you love! The door behind you separates two worlds, which are both cold and warm.
Cunxi was careful not to make any sound, for fear of disturbing the person sleeping quietly in front of her. She slowly approached and squatted beside Pei Yin. She stretched out her hand to brush the hair that blocked Pei Yin's cheek and tucked it behind her ear gently. The sound of her even breathing sounded in her ear, and her heart was very soft. She looked carefully at Pei Yin's cheek, and her pink thin lips made people want to suppress it.
"Cunxi..."
The sudden sound startled Cunxi and he looked up, and found Pei Yin still sleeping quietly beside him, with his beautiful eyes tightly closed. It turned out that he was dreaming... Cunxi chuckled, his eyes full of pampering, and he looked at Pei Yin with an extremely deep gaze.
"Cunxi...wait for me!" Pei Yin muttered, her voice was vague and weak, but Cunxi could hear it clearly.
"I will wait forever!" Cunxi leaned over to Pei Yin's ear and whispered in her dream, her tone gentle.
Pei Yin seemed to have heard something in his dream. His frown gradually relaxed and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Seeing Pei Yin sleeping soundly, Cunxi took a blanket from the side, gently covered her with it, kissed her forehead, and turned to the balcony, took out a cigarette, and lit it.
After the Huahai incident, smoking gradually became a habit for her. Whenever she encountered something that troubled her, cigarettes were the only way to relieve her stress. Since being with Pei Yin, every day during this period seemed to be surrounded by happiness, so much so that Cunxi almost forgot about Chen Feng's existence and the problems that had to be solved, and the meeting with Chen Jiamao... His words hit the nail on the head, as if someone had pulled her out of a dream and asked her to face reality!
Thinking carefully, Chen Feng has been silent since he sent Pei Yin's parents away last time. This is really not like his style... This kind of silence is a bit like the calm before the storm.
Chen Feng would definitely not agree to a divorce easily, but after thinking about it, the only weakness that Chen Feng could hold on to was An An, but An An was Pei Yin's weakness and also Chen Feng's, so Cunxi was sure that he would not use An An to do anything extreme... Thinking of this, Cunxi felt more at ease.
At this moment, Gu Cunxi could not imagine that in addition to Pei Yin's parents and An An, she had missed one person... It was herself, the weak spot that Chen Feng could control to pose a huge threat to Pei Yin!
Cunxi felt a little warmth on her waist. She didn't know when Pei Yin was standing behind her. She quickly put out the cigarette in her hand, like a child who had done something wrong, feeling a little helpless.
"Are you awake?" Cunxi asked gently
"Hmm... I was waiting for you just now and I felt a little sleepy."
"Sorry... I was delayed for a while and came back late," Cunxi said apologetically.
Pei Yin released her hand from her waist, stood beside Cunxi, held her hand, looked at the darkness outside and asked lightly: Are you worried about something?
Cunxi frowned slightly and said calmly: No, I just suddenly wanted to smoke a cigarette.
"But you look worried when you smoke." Pei Yin stood in front of Cunxi, looked into her eyes and said
Cunxi didn't know how to explain for a moment, raised his hand to smooth the hair on his forehead, and after a while he spoke
"I was just thinking about something. Chen Jiamao hopes that I can return to Beicheng and accept Mr. Xu's invitation."
Hearing Beicheng Peiyin's expression, it darkened for a moment, but soon returned to calm, but she felt a little uneasy in her heart. She didn't know how Cunxi would answer, and whether he would really leave here. For a moment, she seemed to have an illusion that she was about to lose Cunxi, which made her very sad.
"Then... do you want to go?" Pei Yin asked, but he looked at Cun Xi nervously, expecting her to give him a negative answer.
"I refused," Cunxi said gently
"Don't you want to go?" Pei Yin asked again
“Don’t even think about it”
"If I can't take you with me, I don't want to go anywhere"
Hearing Cunxi's answer, Pei Yin felt a mixture of sadness and joy. She hoped that Cunxi could choose someone better, but at the same time, she was reluctant to part with her. If possible, she really wanted to go with her, but Chen Feng's matter had not been resolved yet...
"Cunxi...if you want to go...I can wait for you here"
"Wherever you are, I'm there!"
Cunxi raised his hand and gently patted Pei Yin's forehead and continued: Don't let me go...at any time!
Pei Yin lowered his head and smiled softly, "If you don't let go, I won't be able to bear it."
