Chapter 189 Eight Elderly People Died in One Month
"Ah Xu..."
"sorry……"
Luo Qing burst into tears.
She did this on purpose. She knew that Bai Xu hadn't had a good sleep in the past few days, and she also knew that to get to her home from the county town, one had to pass through a narrow and steep road.
She calculated the time Bai Xu would drive away, and called him at that exact moment to tell him that she didn't want to live anymore.
Given Bai Xu's personality, he would be confused when he heard her say that, and the possibility of something going wrong can be imagined.
Luo Qing closed her eyes and called Bai Xu for an ambulance.
If Bai Xu could survive this time, she would really let bygones be bygones.
He hurt her and she hurt him.
The two are cleared.
But if Bai Xu didn't survive——
Luo Qing stared at the ceiling in a daze. It could only be said that it was fate and time, and that God didn't want her and Bai Xu to be together.
Maybe God really didn't want her and Bai Xu to continue to be entangled.
Bai Xu was pushed into the emergency room for a full 24 hours, and Luo Qing waited for the news of his death.
"Ah Xu!"
Luo Qing held the withered flowers that Bai Xu bought for her that day and cried until she was hoarse.
She didn't even dare to report the incident to the police seven years ago, but now she has deliberately killed her enemy and her lover.
It was true that she hated Bai Xu.
But it is also true that she loves Bai Xu.
However, there is an unbridgeable bridge between her and Bai Xu, and she cannot let go of the hurt she suffered that year.
She couldn't accept that she had fallen in love with the man who had violated her.
But now, Bai Xu is dead.
Luo Qing's lips turned pale, and she felt that she would never fall in love with anyone else in her life.
She brought punishment upon the people who harmed her.
But she herself was also punished.
After losing Bai Xu, she could only keep herself busy. Her house became bigger and bigger, and the money in her card became more and more.
But she lost the person she loved most forever.
In recent years, when she had free time, she would travel around, as if this way she could pretend that Bai Xu's shadow was still around her.
People who are familiar with her know that she can't forget Bai Xu, so they can only sigh that she and Bai Xu are not destined to be together.
What a twist of fate! What a twist of fate!
On New Year's Eve, families reunite.
Luo Qing could only live in the cold villa. She glanced at the servants busying around, then lowered her head to trim the sunflowers in the shed, and in her heart she recited the name of her lover who had died many years ago.
Some people were worried that Luo Qing would not be able to accept such a huge blow, and they comforted her and urged her to be more positive.
At that time, Luo Qing just forced a smile and wiped the tears from her face.
How did she answer at that time?
She said: "I will live well. The last thing Ah Xu said to me before he died was that I must live well no matter what."
She was living well.
But when she is free, she can't help feeling sad.
She has everything now, but she has completely lost the ability to love someone.
…
The timeline returns to the live broadcast room.
Huo Ning gave out the last lucky bag of the day.
System prompt: Congratulations to user [Peach Oolong] for winning a 'Lucky Bag'.
——［Peach Oolong］Give away 'Phoenix Crown and Bridal Casket' x1.
——[The suddenly rich Ah Xi] gave away 'red wine' X66.
——[Ran Ran is a rich woman] sent out 'fresh flowers' X11.
Huo Ning invited Mitao Wulong to have a video call.
As soon as the video was connected, Peach Oolong almost jumped up in excitement.
"Ahhhh! Host, it's finally my turn to get the lucky bag this time! I've been waiting for so long, ahhhh I'm so happy!"
"I've been your fan for ten years, host!"
Huo Ning's mouth twitched slightly. This young man really spoke without thinking. What do you mean by a ten-year old fan? She has been live streaming for less than half a year.
Forget it, forget it. He said ten years is enough.
[You are a sunny and cheerful boy, and you named yourself Peach Oolong? ]
[What's the big deal? I'm a woman as strong as an eagle. My name is Iron-blooded Lone Wolf.]
[If I say that I am a beggar who has grown rich at the age of sixteen, how will you respond? ]
[This Peach Black Dragon Warrior, you have been a fan of the anchor for ten years, don’t you know that there is nothing good about grabbing her lucky bag? ]
[Who said that? Didn’t the person who called Chun Bu Wan last time find a partner because the anchor did? ]
[Ahem, I also found my target in the anchor’s comment section. ]
【??? The anchors’ comments section is full of arguments every day, how come you guys can find someone?!】
[Sure enough, a true warrior never complains about the environment. ]
Mitao Wulong never thought that he could be shown off by a group of people who already have a partner in this situation.
Unable to help but grit his teeth, he said with a little sadness: "When will I find a partner?"
Huo Ning glanced at him and said, "You didn't come to my live studio today to find a partner, did you?"
After she said this, Mitao Wulong immediately sat up straight, looking a little serious.
"Anchor, you are right. I do have something very important to ask you."
Huo Ning hummed, "You say."
The smile on Mitao Wulong's face completely faded. He frowned and carefully recalled what had happened during this period of time.
"Let me introduce myself first. My name is Chen Shu. I'm actually fine, and so are my family. It's just that there have been a lot of incidents in our hometown recently."
He said solemnly: "To be honest, eight elderly people have died in the village this month!"
It is not surprising for elderly people to die in the village.
But eight elderly people died within a month. This was neither a natural disaster nor a man-made disaster. It is indeed shocking and frightening.
However——
Chen Shu thought about it and remembered something strange. "Come to think of it, no elderly person has passed away in our village for nearly fifteen years."
"Eight people have passed away in this period of time. When you put these two things together, I feel something is wrong."
But he never went back to his hometown to visit.
My father went to all these banquets.
He just had a feeling that something was wrong, but he didn't really know what was wrong.
“Are there any pictures of those old people who died?”
Huo Ning took a sip of water and asked.
Chen Shu shook his head. "No."
He hasn't been back to his hometown for many years, how could he have photos of those people?
Huo Ning asked again: "Are there any photos of your village?"
Chen Shu shook his head again and touched his chin awkwardly, "I don't have this either."
He doesn't like taking photos, so there are only a few photos of him in the album.
He wouldn't even take photos when he went to an unfamiliar place, let alone the countryside where he had lived for many years.
Huo Ning spread his hands, looking helpless. "I can tell you clearly that there is indeed a problem in your village, but I won't know exactly where the problem lies until I have a look."
"So I need you to give me the address of your village."
Chen Shu blurted out subconsciously, "Don't bother. My dad has to go back tomorrow. You can just take our car."
After a pause, he added, "It just so happens that I haven't been home for a long time."
