Chapter 35 Obsession
He Qian rushed all the way to Ciyun Pavilion. It was the midday rush hour and the traffic was a little heavier. It was almost an hour before he got back.
He was uneasy throughout the entire journey of less than 3 kilometers. Yu Qingqing's song stirred up waves that he had been unwilling to face!
Over the years, not only did he not dare to admit that he fell in love with Song Li, he also did not dare to admit that what should he do if Song Li was really not the murderer?
The sound of the burning fire in the song seemed to wrap around his eardrums like a spell, making him afraid.
The moment he opened the door, he saw Song Li at first sight. She was standing beside the sofa in the living room, like a beam of golden light flashing within his visual range...
Song Li was leaning on the sofa with one hand and holding her stomach with the other. She was also stunned when she saw him suddenly appear...
He Qian strode towards her. The closer he got, the more he could breathe. In the past few days without her, his world seemed to have lost all oxygen...
Song Li was frightened and took two steps back. Her half-dead body could no longer withstand his torture... Could he let her go...
When He Qian got closer, he found that she had lost a lot of weight in just a few days. Her face was pale, her eyes were red, her lips were dry, and there were tiny beads of sweat on her forehead and cheeks. Was she sweating coldly because of the pain she was experiencing?
"What’s wrong with you?"
"I'm sorry, He..."
Two voices rang out at the same time.
Song Li was habitually humble. No matter when or where, she was always wrong. Especially since she was taken away by Zhao Gengnian at Qingtong Cemetery this time, and she didn't kneel until dark! She even didn't come back for three days and didn't call him...
What he hated most was her loss of contact! He didn't care if she had been unconscious for three days, if she had been rushed to the emergency room by Zhao Gengnian at two in the morning, or if she had nearly died!
But why didn't he scold her or punish her directly?
The more He Qian watched, the more distressed he felt. She hunched over, clutching her belly, her voice hoarse from the pain...
The landline suddenly rang next to the sofa. Song Li picked it up with difficulty: "Hello, yes, please let him in. He brought medicine and I need it urgently. Yes, thank you."
He Qian went over and wanted to support her who was on the verge of collapse, but as soon as he touched her shoulder, Song Li subconsciously dodged in the same second!
It shows how afraid she is of him!
When he dodged, his legs became weak and his body fell forward...
He Qian took a step forward, quickly put his arms around her back, and picked her up. "Will I eat you?"
Song Li's body was shaken violently, the pain in his lower abdomen became more intense, his internal organs were cramped, and he was covered in cold sweat again!
He Qian also clearly felt that she suddenly shrank into a ball in his arms, his hands tightly grasping his lower abdomen. He knew that she was suffering from menstrual cramps. Counting the days, it was her menstrual period...
A few days ago, she was made to kneel in the rain at the cemetery...
He Qian gently laid her flat on the sofa, so carefully and gently that even he was surprised.
Song Li shrank his body, his eyes tightly closed in pain, his brows knitted tightly together, and his teeth bit his lips hard...
He Qian took out his phone and called Yang Xiao: "Send someone to pick up Aunt Zhen."
Then the doorbell rang. Song Li guessed that the medicine she bought had arrived. Just as she was about to get up despite the pain, He Qian had already run over to open the door.
"Sir, your medicine!" He was indeed running errands.
He Qian took the medicine, then quickly returned to the sofa, sat next to her, and opened the bag. "How do I take this medicine?"
"I can do it myself." Song Li thought again.
He Qian held her down and said, "I'm going to get some water, or do you want to eat first? Have you eaten yet?"
Song Li felt another sharp pain, but even with her foggy mind, she could still clearly see his figure running for her...
He Qian poured her a cup of warm water, carefully read the instructions on the box, opened an orange and white capsule, supported her shoulders and let her lean on him, preparing to feed her the medicine.
Song Li pointed at the medicine on the table and said, "Two..."
"It says one pill for adults."
"It's useless..." Song Li has taken so many painkillers that antibodies have formed in her body. The fact that she is intolerant to the drugs often makes her life worse than death.
He Qian seemed to understand something and wanted to refute her, but once again he saw her pursing her lips as she endured the pain...
Just two is enough. Just relieve her pain first, and then we can slowly adjust it later...
After taking the medicine, Song Li collapsed directly on He Qian's body. The constant pain in her lower abdomen could not stop her eyelids from closing.
"Don't sleep. Wait until Aunt Zhen comes over. Let her cook and eat before you sleep."
Song Li was exhausted and had no way to respond to him.
He Qian had no choice but to carry her back to the bedroom, cover her with a quilt, and turn up the heating.
He looked at the thin woman on the bed, who was only half-breathed. It was all thanks to him...
Obsession is a devil that eats people's hearts. His treatment of Song Li for the past thirteen years was nothing more than an obsession that ate his heart, blinded his sensitivity towards Song Li, ignored all of Song Li's suffering and struggles, and tortured her to the point of being broken!
Liu Mingzhen came from the old house. He Qian handed Song Li to her and rushed to Fenghua Manor to meet Yang Xiao.
On the top floor of the building, Yang Xiao would send He Qian in when he was drunk in the past, but they never stayed for long, so it was a bit surprising that He Qian asked him to sit in the living room and wait this time.
He Qian then played Qin Xiang's recorded message.
The first time Yang Xiao listened, he just listened to the content and didn't pay much attention to anything else. The same was true for the second and third times.
Some time ago, He Qian told him after drinking that the reason he hated Song Li so much was because Song Li set fire to his mother's laboratory and burned his mother and pregnant fiancée to death!
But Yang Xiao looked through the news of that year and found that even the police could not find anything suspicious about Song Li. Only He Qian kept pestering Song Li!
It turned out that there was another message! Yang Xiao had never met Qin Xiang, but judging by the content of the recording, it must be her! How could he not be crazy about the last message from his three-month pregnant fiancée before she died! How could he possibly let Song Li go!
After playing it for the fourth time, He Qian paused and asked, "Did you listen carefully?"
Yang Xiao nodded. He was indeed listening carefully, but he didn't know what he wanted.
"I asked you to cut it. Have you finished it? Give it to me!" Before coming here, He Qian told him to keep the song in the USB flash drive starting from the 2nd minute and 59th second.
"Here." Yang Xiao took out the USB drive.
He Qian plugged it in and pressed play...
This time, He Qian was even more certain that the crackling sound of the fire he heard was exactly the same as in Qin Xiang's message!
After the playback was completed, He Qian looked at Yang Xiao.
"The sound of fire?" Yang Xiao could only hear the similarity in the first few seconds.
Even Yang Xiao realized it after listening to it once...
He Qian clenched his fists and spoke after a long while: "Find professional technology to extract the sound of the fire in the background of the recording and the song, and then compare them."
Yang Xiao understood the message he received and he was doubting Qin Xiang's message!
"Did Yu Qingqing tell the producer?"
"Here's the list." Yang Xiao spread out the information and highlighted the key points. "The arranger of this song is a Chinese American, Xu Keran, a 36-year-old male. He's been composing for about ten years and has collaborated with many heavyweight singers. Yu Qingqing's song 'Reborn from the Ashes' was arranged by Xu Keran, and he collected all the sound materials for the entire song himself."
If the sound of the burning fire was collected sound material, there would be nothing unusual in putting it in Yu Qingqing's song. However, why did the same rhythm and punctuation appear in Qin Xiang's message?
It is obviously impossible that Yu Qingqing’s song “plagiarized” Qin Xiang’s message!
Because only He Qian has Qin Xiang’s message!
Could it be that Qin Xiang's message was also edited from collected sound materials combined with Qin Xiang's pre-recorded voice?
When He Qian thought of this, his hands and feet turned cold and his head felt dizzy!
Qin Xiang's message was the only pillar that supported his obsession. Now if this pillar was false, then what was the meaning of his crazy revenge on Song Li for thirteen years?
Song Li is now 30 years old from 18 years old!
Yang Xiao broke his contemplation and said, "Should we arrest Xu Keran and interrogate him now? He's in the United States now."
He Qian looked out the window, his heart tangled for a long time before he said with difficulty, "Don't make such a big fuss for now. Put aside everything you're doing and investigate it yourself, starting from March 28, 2009..."
Is he finally going to investigate the lab fire thirteen years ago? Zhao Gengnian had asked him to investigate more than once, but he ignored them! For thirteen years, no matter how much he tortured Song Li, even forcing her father to death, she never admitted to murder or arson!
Now, are we really going to investigate?
"Just deploy the manpower, and I will give you all the information, including Qin Xiang's... human tissue comparison and matching report." He Qian spoke in a lower and lower voice, he was lacking in confidence.
Thirteen years ago, in a laboratory fire, his mother, Tao Fuhua, bled to death and fell into a coma, burning to death! Qin Xiang, who was very close to the explosion, was completely destroyed, leaving no trace. Later, "human tissue fragments" found at the scene were compared with the DNA in the blood and confirmed to be a match to Qin Xiang...
He Qian has accepted this fact for thirteen years, and he even signed his name with his own hands to stop this tragedy.
