Zhang Moyan got out of the taxi and climbed up the stairs with heavy steps. When he opened the door and entered the house, the dull pain in his chest finally broke through in the darkness.
The strength drained from her body, and she could not even stand steadily. She slid down the door like a noodle.
Her work bag fell beside her legs and she slumped down next to the shoe cabinet.
Zhang Moyan thought she would burst into tears, but it turned out that she couldn't cry at all at this point.
The shocking information made her dizzy. She felt as if she had fallen into a dark abyss. Not only was she scared and terrified, but she also had no way of escaping.
Zhang Moyan sat on the ground for an unknown amount of time, feeling as if her soul had been sucked out of her. Suddenly, she remembered that she had not even paid for the taxi fare. She quickly took out her phone, and sure enough, there was a payment notification on the interface, for a total of 20 yuan.
Drivers nowadays are really careless. They drive away before the money is paid, and they are not afraid that the customers will run away with the bill.
However, no matter who in this world runs away from paying, Zhang Moyan will not run away from paying. It’s not because she is so noble, but because she never likes to owe others.
After payment, I returned to the main interface and found several unread WeChat messages. The first two were from Xiao Xingyu.
The first one is:
"I have a last-minute meeting tonight, and it's probably going to be late. I won't call you today, so you should go to bed early."
The second one is:
"I'll contact you after the finals tomorrow!"
There wasn't even any term of endearment or honey, it was just the natural tone of an old married couple, followed by an emoji of a cute puppy talking on the phone.
It was a sweet report, but Zhang Moyan's first reaction was: No need to talk to Xiao Xingyu tonight.
The next second, she realized that she actually had such a relieved thought and was stunned.
The fluorescent light from the cell phone illuminated Zhang Moyan's face as she stared at the screen for a long time. After a while, an indescribable sadness surged over her. Thinking of ending her relationship with Xiao Xingyu, she finally buried her face in her knees and burst into tears.
She had previously thought she had a rough idea of what was happening to herself and her biological mother, but she never imagined that the truth would be so bizarre, unbearable, and even disgusting.
The misfortune was more unexpected than any traffic accident, but it was all her own fault.
If time could go back, she would rather be tortured to death by her damn curiosity than be so smart as to ask Xiao Guotao questions.
No one knows how much she regrets taking this step now!
After crying until she was exhausted and felt a little faint, Zhang Yan realized that she had been on the ground for a long time.
Reluctantly standing up with the help of the shoe cabinet, she staggered into the bathroom, dressed neatly without even changing her leather shoes, and walked under the shower, turned on the water, and let the cold water that had not yet been heated by the gas drench her head.
How wonderful it would be if this constant rush of water could wash her clean!
20 minutes later, Zhang Moyan changed into pajamas casually and fell on the bed without drying her hair.
Looking at the decorative patterns on the chandelier on the ceiling, her mind calmed down a little.
The scene when Xiao Guotao first met her and learned that her surname was "Zhang" suddenly came to her mind again - "Is it Zhang the Archer?" Xiao Guotao specifically asked her this.
Xiao Guotao had doubts about her since the first time he saw her, so in Xiao Guotao's eyes, she sneaked into the Xiao family, broke into Zhenbaozhai, fell in love with Xiao Xingyu, Lin Yin committed suicide, Xiao Mumu stole the notes...all of this was probably caused by her.
But Xiao Guotao remained calm.
Just like in the hospital just now, her behavior actually had a big flaw. For example, she didn't even ask Xiao Guotao why he was so generous to show her his suicide note. The story of an ungrateful person killing his benefactor in the letter was a family scandal. How could he show it to irrelevant people for no reason?
Unfortunately, that was the best acting she could do under those kinds of blows. It wasn't perfect, but there were no regrets either.
These are not the main points. Even if there are flaws, Xiao Guotao must have seen through the truth long ago. The key point here is that even if Xiao Guotao saw the clues, he still kept it to himself. He did not threaten or intimidate her to leave Xiao Xingyu, but instead proposed a meeting between the parents of both parties.
Zhang Moyan hates this feeling.
This made her feel that her opponent was so experienced and sophisticated, so calm, elegant and composed, and she was simply a weakling who could not be more naive in front of such an opponent.
It is doomed to fail.
In fact, she also felt that she and Xiao Xingyu were not a good match, but this mismatch mainly came from the gap in family background, wealth and status. But now it seemed that the distance between them was not just a small one, but a huge mountain and river!
She couldn't fly over.
Everything was revealed in his father's suicide note, but he didn't expect that it wasn't his mother who came to the Xiao family, and his mother had passed away long ago. However, the conspiracy he predicted was not over yet and was still correct. This can be seen from the fact that she knew Xiao Xingyu and that Xiao Mumu was instigated by the Japanese to steal Xiao Guotao's painstaking notes.
The dark hand hiding behind the scenes did not stop calculating.
I can't continue dating Xiao Xingyu...
Later, Zhang Moyan didn't know when she fell asleep. She was woken up by a phone call in a daze.
Zhang Moyan went to bed without drying her hair and her head hurt so much that she covered her head with her hands, got up, found her cell phone under the quilt, and called Jin Xueyang.
