Chapter 165 He Rongsheng and his son died

“Ah!! Someone’s dead!!”

The sound was very close, as if it came from the corner of her house.

Zhou Nuan's eyelids twitched and a strong sense of uneasiness surged in her heart.

The others were awakened by the sharp scream. Aunt Li and others came out one after another. Qin Yuezhi saw her standing in the living room and asked, "Xiao Nuan? What's wrong? What happened outside?"

Su Hang walked up to her, looking a little uneasy.

"..I don't know." Zhou Nuan replied.

Looking up, I saw Gu Xiyue standing on the stairs with a serious expression on his face.

"I, I seemed to hear someone shouting...someone is dead?" Qin Yuezhi swallowed.

Aunt Li cursed, "Who are those people yelling 'New Year's Eve' over there? It's really unlucky! I'll go and scold them away!"

As she spoke, she angrily went to open the door. As soon as the door was opened, someone came running over in a panic. It was the neighbor who was in the crowd yesterday.

"Something bad has happened, something bad has happened!" she screamed in panic.

"What bad thing?! Don't bring bad luck to my family during the New Year!!" Aunt Li was angry.

"It's really bad. Yesterday, those two people died downstairs of your house!!"

Zhou Nuan’s mind buzzed.

She walked out quickly, but saw a lot of people gathered in the corner of her house, talking a lot. When they saw her come out, they quickly made way for her.

"That's her, isn't it?"

"That's right, that's right. It was said that her mother from her natal family came with her brother to look for her yesterday, but she refused to acknowledge them. She must have felt that there was no way out, so she died downstairs of her house."

"Wow, she is so cruel, she doesn't even recognize her own mother? No matter how wrong she is, she is still her biological mother who gave birth to her and raised her. She is so heartless."

"Hey, do you think they really committed suicide? Could it be..."

"Hush, she's coming."

Zhou Nuan ignored the gossiping faces around her and walked past the crowd towards the figure lying in the corner.

She had just taken a few steps and before she could see the two people's faces clearly, a big hand grabbed her arm, and then the man covered her eyes with his other warm big hand.

In the blur, she saw a pair of bloodshot, wide-open eyes. There was no life in those eyes, only confusion and resentment.

Those were He Rongsheng's eyes.

"Don't look." Gu Xiyue's voice was indistinguishable from his joy and anger, "They are dead."

Zhou Nuan was stunned.

Are they really He Rongsheng and his son? Are they really dead?!

Just then, footsteps were heard. The police had arrived.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way!" It was He Yang who came. "What happened? Who called the police?"

Everyone looked at each other, still in shock and hadn't thought of calling the police.

Gu Xiyue said in a deep voice, "I reported it."

He Yang: "What happened?"

"Someone died," Gu Xiyue pointed to the bodies in the corner, "It's my mother-in-law and my uncle."

“…” He Yang was shocked.

After understanding all the causes and consequences, especially after everyone talked about last night's conflict, he rubbed his brows and felt a little tricky.

"Director Gu," he said helplessly, "I'm afraid I'll have to trouble you to make a trip."

Qin Yuezhi was shocked and scared, "Xiao Nuan, Xiyue..."

"It's okay, Mom. We'll be back soon." Gu Xiyue was very calm. He took Zhou Nuan's hand and said to He Yang, "Let's go."

————

Sitting in the interrogation room of the Public Security Bureau, Zhou Nuan had recovered from her initial confusion. She glanced at Gu Xiyue who was sitting next to her. He was even calmer than her.

He Yang walked in from outside, frowning, and said directly, "This is not good for you."

"These two people had a conflict with you yesterday, and they died downstairs of your house today. They drank poison and died. It looked like suicide, but there were strangulation marks on He Rongsheng's neck, which must have been caused by someone."

"Zhou Nuan, can you tell me where you were last night?"

Zhou Nuan thought for a moment and said, "I went to bed early last night."

"You've never been out?"

"No."

“Who can prove it?”

"...Xiyue and the others are outside watching the fireworks, because my children have never seen fireworks before."

"So no one can prove you were in the room the whole time?"

"..yes."

He Yang took a deep breath and his expression became much more serious. "I won't hide it from you, Zhou Nuan. The situation is not favorable for you now. I'm afraid you can't leave today."

Zhou Nuan nodded, "I know, you try your best to investigate, and I will cooperate."

He Yang said a few more words and was about to leave when he was stopped by Gu Xiyue, whose tone was very cold.

"Director He, go check on Miss Huashun, Ji Huayan. I think she is involved in this matter."

He Yang paused.

at this time.

Ji Huayan was sitting at home with Jinianshan, listening to the workers talking about the Gu family. When he said, "Everyone is saying that Director Gu's lover is too cold-blooded, and her mother and brother committed suicide downstairs of her house because they had no other choice," Jinianshan's brows twisted into a knot.

Ji's mother also frowned: "Is she really dead? I didn't expect that she would be such a person. Fortunately, I didn't have time to accept her as a goddaughter. I almost got her into trouble."

Ji Huayan looked calm, but felt both nervous and secretly happy in her heart.

She was happy that just as she expected, everyone pointed the finger at Zhou Nuan, but she was nervous because she thought no one would notice it.

She was a little annoyed that she had strangled He Rongsheng's neck in a fit of impulse, but she also tried her best to cover it up. Judging from everyone's reactions, no one should have noticed that He Rongsheng and his mother were killed by someone. Instead, they thought they committed suicide and were forced to death by Zhou Nuan.

"I didn't expect them to come to Haicheng. This woman once raised you for a while, but you probably don't remember it." Mother Ji looked at Ji Huayan.

Ji Huayan answered as calmly as possible, "I don't remember."

"It's OK if you don't remember. That family isn't a good bunch either." Jin Yi Shan Dao said in a rare kind tone, "I just received a notice saying that a batch of relics of martyrs will be sent back to China. Among them are your biological father's things. You will come with me then."

Ji Huayan's heart was pounding, and she thought to herself, no wonder Jian Jishan's attitude towards her had changed in the past two days, it turned out to be because of this.

"I heard that Yuan Lao Hu brought you back personally. He and your biological father were good friends. If you get his care, you won't have to worry about your life. Just behave well then, okay?"

She nodded heavily, feeling secretly delighted.

She had heard from Jinianshan about Yuan Lao Hu. He was a big shot in the military district and people like Chen Yan could not compare to him. He had been in the southern military district before. She didn't expect that he was actually a friend of that dead guy. If she could get close to him, then what would Gu Xiyue and Luo Chenxing matter to her?

With him backing her up, what kind of man could she want?

At this moment, Ji Huayan was extremely grateful that she had eliminated the two hidden dangers of He Rongsheng. As long as no one went to Wantou Village to investigate, no one would know about her affairs.

She is the daughter of the respected martyr Zhou Zhiyong, and it would be best if Zhou Nuan could never turn over a new leaf in her life!
