Looking at the silent Nanjiang Bridge in the dead of night, and the occasional speeding vehicle.
For the first time in his life, Liao Nanxing felt incredibly melancholy.
Although the trending topic was removed in time, he knew in his heart that his career might suffer a major setback because of it.
Just as Liao Nanxing was lost in thought, Su Mu called. He glanced at the call and hung up in annoyance.
During this time, Xu Xiuzhen kept sending him messages, which annoyed him.
Only now did he understand what it meant for a harmonious family to prosper.
He simply turned off his phone and went back to his car.
He cannot sit idly by and wait for his death.
Right now, there's only one person who can solve this problem!
I glanced at the time; it was 3 a.m.
It will have to wait until after 7 o'clock.
Start the car and press the accelerator.
He didn't know where he was going, but he knew he didn't want to go back to that so-called home.
...
However, at the same moment, Zhou Chunhua was awakened by a cell phone ringing.
I groggily reached for my phone and, with my eyes closed, pressed the answer button.
"Zhou Chunhua! Where is my husband?"
The woman's frantic roar made her eardrums ache.
Sappanwood?
Her drowsiness vanished instantly. They had clearly been completely wiped out!
I looked at the number.
No wonder! It was an unfamiliar number.
Just as he was about to speak, Su Mu shouted hysterically, "Get Liao Nanxing on the phone! Hurry up! Get him to answer the phone! I know he's with you!"
Zhou Chunhua found it somewhat amusing.
How come life has turned upside down like this?
"Su Mu, if you're sick, go to a mental hospital. What's wrong with you acting crazy in my place in the middle of the night?"
“You… Zhou Chunhua, I know Liao Nanxing is with you. Call him back, and I'll pretend nothing happened. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude to you.”
"Come on, come on, show me what you're capable of. You're never going to stop!" With that, she hung up the phone.
They immediately blocked him.
Just as I was about to go back to sleep, a text message popped up.
She clicked on it and was surprised to find it was Xu Xiuzhen.
【Chunhua, this is Mom. I know you're still angry with me, so you blocked my phone number and WeChat. Mom doesn't blame you. It's all Mom's fault for not treating you well in the past, so it's understandable that you're angry.】
Mom wants to talk to you about something important today. Tell me, is Nanxing with you? You must tell me the truth, I'm worried something might have happened to Nanxing. If you know anything, you must tell Mom.
Seeing this, Zhou Chunhua stopped reading.
That's strange. What does it matter to her whether Liao Nanxing lives or dies?
She blocked the number Xu Xiuzhen had sent her messages to again, then turned over and went back to sleep.
So that night, some slept soundly, some screamed hysterically like madmen, some worried all night and cried silently all night.
...
6:59.
Liao Nanxing appeared at No. 397 Xueshi Road.
When the phone clock struck seven, the door opened.
"teacher."
Shao Jiefu, dressed in a Tai Chi uniform, looked at Liao Nanxing with a gloomy face.
"Come in."
After saying that, he turned around and went back inside.
Liao Nanxing followed behind, looking haggard.
With his unshaven appearance, no one would believe that this was the usually arrogant Professor Liao.
Upon entering, Shao Jiefu led the person directly to the study.
"Please sit down."
Liao Nanxing obediently sat down on the mahogany sofa.
He licked his chapped lower lip and said, "Teacher, I'm sorry, I've embarrassed you."
Shao Jiefu snorted coldly.
Liao Nanxing said again, "Teacher, I was too young and too anxious back then. Please, teacher, save me."
“I’ve always told you not to be impatient for quick results, but why wouldn’t you listen? Now look what’s happened, this is a huge mess, and your whole life might be ruined.”
"I will remember your teachings. From now on, I will definitely take every step steadily." Liao Nanxing lowered his proud head.
Shao Jiefu looked at him with a disappointed expression.
He drank several sips of tea before his complexion improved slightly.
After all, they are his beloved students. He has devoted half his life to training them and only managed to train a few people. It is impossible for him to abandon them.
Moreover, Liao Nanxing not only lost face, but he also lost face as a result.
"Tell me the truth, is there any direct connection between you and the death of that Chen Xiaoyu?"
This is a matter of principle.
If Liao Nanxing was indeed involved, then he would persuade Liao Nanxing to turn himself in.
Because that person had his eye on him, Liao Nanxing couldn't escape.
"No," Liao Nanxing said frankly. "I just wanted to make Chen Xiaoyu's days at school miserable so that she would drop out. To be honest, I don't know what happened to Chen Xiaoyu that day, and I didn't even hear about her suicide later."
Shao Jiefu finally breathed a sigh of relief.
“If there’s no direct connection, then it’s not difficult. Let me ask you this: do you know who leaked those videos? Or, to put it another way, who have you offended recently?”
Liao Nanxing immediately pictured Gu Yao's face, a face she could never bear to look at.
Perhaps they were just incompatible according to their birth charts.
They didn't get along when Liao Nanxing first became his student.
They never publicly argued, but privately they caused each other a lot of discomfort.
"Gu Yao." After saying that, Liao Nanxing looked at Shao Jiefu, but didn't see the slightest bit of surprise on Shao Jiefu's face.
It seems the teacher already knew about the problems between them.
