After saying that, Zhou Tong gritted his teeth, but he felt as if something was missing in his heart. Although he had maintained a feeling of anger all the way, he realized that he had not felt this way for a long time when he saw his daughter.
He liked Liu Qian very much, but he couldn't accept the way she had done to him.
He sighed, finally nodded, and sat down in a chair to the side.
After arranging several plans, Lu Yuan instructed everyone to begin investigating their meeting. Since Zhou Tong was not in good condition, Lu Yuan entrusted the matter entirely to Shen Hu.
Back home, Zhou Tong sat on the sofa with a dejected expression, saying nothing.
When Zhou Chen saw her father in this state, she wanted to go and comfort him, but she opened her mouth and didn't know what to say. After thinking for a long time, she finally spoke.
"Dad, after we get back to Aunt Liu Qian... will we never be able to contact her again?"
Zhou Tong shook his head. He didn't know if they could stay in touch in the future. After all, Liu Qian had done this to him first, and he felt that she was taking advantage of his feelings.
During this period, he poured out his true feelings, but it was hard to say whether the other person was like him or simply taking advantage of him. He fell into a state of disappointment in the relationship.
"Why don't we ask Aunt Liu Qian? Maybe she was just confused for a moment, or maybe she was being blackmailed by someone?"
Upon hearing Zhou Chen's words, Zhou Tong couldn't help but look up at his daughter.
"But the mistake has already been made, we can't forgive her just because she was instigated, can we?"
"Didn't the teacher say that it's a great virtue to admit one's mistakes and correct them?"
Zhou Tong opened his mouth, unsure how to answer his daughter: "She's an adult and should pay the price for her actions!"
Zhou Chen didn't know if he understood, but he just nodded slightly and went back to his bedroom.
Sitting on the bed, Zhou Chen's mind was in turmoil. Thinking about Liu Qian's care for her, which made her feel like she had a mother, she wanted to call Liu Qian "Mom" several times, but she couldn't bring herself to do it.
"I really want a mom!"
Zhou Chen said something in a low voice, then buried his head in the pillow.
At this moment, Zhou Tong was not in a very good mood either. He sat in his room without saying a word, smoking one cigarette after another, and the whole room was filled with a pungent smell of smoke.
Meanwhile, Liu Qian, who was far away in the slums, sat in her room in silence for a long time.
The notebook where Zhou Tong wrote his words is still on the table.
"Ring ring ring"
The phone rang abruptly in the room.
Liu Qian was startled. She quickly turned off her phone's ringer, then looked at the number and saw it was an unfamiliar number. She knew who was calling.
After thinking for a long time, I finally picked up the phone and shakily pressed the answer button. A cold male voice came from the other end.
"I heard Zhou Tong went to your place today?"
Liu Qian thought for a moment and realized that the other party must have sent someone to keep an eye on her.
So she answered, "Yes, Zhou Tong came to see me today!"
"Did you do what he asked you to do? Did he reveal any specific information?"
After pondering for a long time, Liu Qian still shook her head: "No, he just came to have a meal with me, and then someone called him away!"
What was the content of the phone call?
"The conversation on the other end of the phone was probably about something unimportant; I didn't hear it clearly!"
The man's voice suddenly rose several decibels: "Are you hiding something from us? Don't forget, your son is still in our hands. If you don't want to watch your son die, then cooperate with me obediently. I'll give you one more chance! Tell the truth or continue to resist!"
Upon hearing this, Liu Qian's eyes immediately reddened. She frantically grabbed my phone, pleading, "No! Don't! Don't kill my son! I'll tell you, I'll tell you, okay?"
"Hmph, fine, I'll give you this chance to speak now. Who called today? What did he want with Zhou Tong? What clues did he leave behind? Tell me everything in detail. Don't take any chances!"
"Because I'll be sending people over to investigate you soon, and the people living nearby are all watching you. We know everything. I just want to see if you're up to any trouble!"
Just then, a clear cough was heard outside, clearly an instruction from the other party.
Liu Qian frowned, and finally she picked up the notebook and lightly scribbled a few marks on it with a pencil. Sure enough, she found an address on it.
"Aren't you going to talk? You want to see your son's body? Fine, I'll send it to you piece by piece. Today, I'll send you one of your son's hands first!"
"No! Please don't hurt him. I'll tell you about finding Zhou Tong right now. Although I couldn't hear him clearly on the phone, he left an address!"
I suspect this is what they're investigating now. Zhou Tong also told me some things today; it seems their superiors are investigating those missing persons!
The man on the phone sneered, "Really? Where is the address?"
"At...at construction site number three!"
"Construction Site No. 3..."
