Chapter 3 She is still gentle
He Qian couldn't sit still anymore, and he stood up suddenly, as if he wanted to appear in front of Song Li immediately, and he would not stop until he appeared on the other side of the surveillance screen within the next second!
"It's a sedative!" Yang Xiao, with sharp eyes, pointed at the outer packaging of the medicine bottle that Song Li had not handled on the screen. The words "Phenobarbital" were clearly written on it.
He Qian paused, and before he could react, his cell phone rang. It was Ouyang Bin.
Yang Xiao also sighed. He probably knew the reason behind Song Li's action.
As for Song Li, as an assistant, Yang Xiao knew that she was the person who had stayed with He Qian the longest. At first, he thought she would be the "President's Wife", after all, they lived together for many years. But sometimes he was afraid of He Qian's difficulties with her, but Song Li just stood up and never complained or ran away.
Song Li injected herself with sedatives and sleeping pills tonight, and then immediately used ice water to cool down. Without thinking too much, you can understand what she is going through.
If you walk by the river often, you will get your feet wet. She was often pushed out for social events, no matter what occasion or person, she would not miss any contact. This kind of drugging incident was definitely not the only one she encountered tonight...
You can understand it by looking at her skillful movements.
He Qian finished the call without saying a word. He stood there motionless, the veins bulging on the back of his hand holding the phone! He stared at Song Li on the screen, then fiercely kicked the coffee table and tugged at his tie, trying to release the nameless anger in his heart. It was still the dignified Windsor knot that Song Li had tied for him when he came.
"Go to the New World, Ouyang Bin is there!"
Yang Xiao did not dare to hesitate and quickly followed. It was the first time he saw a boss who could not control his emotions and was like a wild beast.
…
Song Li took an ice bath, which mitigated the effects of the medicine, but his heartbeat still didn't slow down much. His entire body felt cold, a chill that pierced his flesh and bones, causing him to ache. He had no strength, his lips were purple, and his eyes were crimson...
She struggled to get up from the bathtub, her whole body soaked and extremely uncomfortable. Looking at her disheveled self in the mirror, a line of hot tears still flowed out uncontrollably.
When will this kind of day end?
Her knees hurt again...it felt like the bones were broken and full of thorns, piercing her will!
Old wounds have never healed, and new wounds have never ceased.
As winter approaches, this night with the howling north wind seems even more sad and miserable as she cries silently.
After struggling to tidy himself up, Song Li endured the chest tightness and dizziness and called a designated driver to return to Ciyun Pavilion.
The dark suite, even though it was 250 square meters and luxuriously decorated, was the cage where she had lived for ten years.
No matter how hard, tired or how much she resists, she must return here.
Her heart, which had just warmed up, turned cold again the moment she turned on the light, as if everything in the room was laughing at her.
Lonely, lonely and sad.
Ciyun Pavilion, where He Qian forced her to live when she was twenty years old, became his tool for unconditional venting. She was not allowed to cry or resist!
The fire killed his two beloved women and their unborn child, and also indirectly killed her father.
That year, she was only eighteen years old and had just been admitted to university.
At the age of 20, she was forced to drop out of school by He Qian and entered the He Group as a slave. The lives of her mother and younger siblings became his bargaining chips, so she did not dare to escape from here.
He Qian always kept saying that she still owed him two lives. Song Li really wanted to ask him, when the police had enough evidence to prove that she had nothing to do with the fire, why did he only believe the recording that Qin Xiang gave him before she died!
That night, He Qian did not return home, and Song Li did not sleep well, even though the heater in the house was blazing with heat.
At dawn, the headlines that suddenly appeared shocked the entire Yuancheng - Ouyang Bin died tragically in a car accident, and all outlets of Taihua Entertainment City were closed down!
Song Li was terribly dizzy, and her knees ached so much she could barely get out of bed. It took a while for her to recover before she finally managed to get up. She didn't dare drive herself, and on the subway to the office, she read all sorts of news, feeling a bit taken aback.
"Taihua's head, Ouyang Bin, was driving drunk and crashed into the overpass guardrail, causing him to fall ten meters, destroying his car and killing himself!"
"Taihua Entertainment City was suspected of selling DP, and its business premises were closed overnight..."
"All senior executives of Taihua Group have been detained, and the company is facing the risk of bankruptcy!"
"Ouyang Bin seems to have offended a certain important figure..."
Song Li squeezed through the crowd and left the subway station. The outrageous Taihua incident was still widely reported, and her forehead began to feel hot and painful again.
Unexpectedly, He Qian arrived at the company earlier than her.
Zeng Xinyue came right after and trotted into the secretary's office, "Sister Li, good morning."
"Good morning, Xinyue." Song Li put down her things and walked towards the tea room to prepare breakfast for He Qian.
"Sister Li, what happened last night?" Zeng Xinyue followed her and asked quietly, "What happened to Ouyang Bin was so sudden!"
Song Li hesitated for two seconds, then smiled and said, "I don't know either."
"Assistant Yang called me early this morning and told me to come to the company early. I think there's an urgent meeting for a Taihua Group project. I heard Director Liang is coming back from a connecting flight early this morning!"
Song Li knew that Liang Tao was in charge of Taihua and was on a temporary business trip. After such a big thing happened, he would definitely rush back.
"This is the first time I've seen Mr. He arrive at the company so early. I just took a look at him and he looks so haggard, as if he hadn't slept all night..."
Yang Xiao was the only one who knew that He Qian and Song Li lived together. Zeng Xinyue just followed the crowd and thought that Song Li was the person He Qian had been with the longest and valued the most, and that Song Li was also the person who was bullied the most by He Qian.
Song Li heated up the milk, took out the bread from the toaster and placed it on a plate, then took out the filtered coffee powder, scooped out the fine powder with a spoon, poured in boiling water that had been left for five minutes to soak, and then went into the president's office.
"Mr. He." Song Li didn't dare to look him in the eye and took the plate and placed it in front of him.
He Qian rubbed his temples and watched her walk closer to him step by step. The scene of her injecting him with sedatives last night came to his mind again.
He stayed up all night just to deal with Ouyang Bin!
As early as the last time Ouyang Bin did that to Song Li, he was determined to beat him to death! Last night, he even dared to drug Song Li, so there was no way he would show mercy!
But today Song Li was too quiet as usual. If he didn't know what happened last night and what kind of suffering Song Li had suffered, he would have suspected that this person was not Song Li.
Song Li in front of him seemed to have no grievances at all. He did not mention a word about the torture of alcohol and drugs last night, and no emotion could be seen on his face.
What about the social engagements he didn't know about? Seeing how skillfully she prepared the ice and injected herself with the sedative, it must have been a long time coming!
"Do you need to change to something else?" Song Li asked softly when she saw that he was reluctant to eat.
She was still gentle, and He Qian's heart was hurt.
"How did you make Ouyang Bin believe that you had AIDS last night?" He Qian took a sip of warm milk.
Song Li was stunned, staring at him, unsure how to respond. She had deliberately spread the news last night, making several detours and letting people on the street spread it to Ouyang Bin's ears.
"Then should I... go to the hospital for a check-up?" He Qian knew that this was Song Li's trick, but he still couldn't help but mock her.
But she is also "loyal" and is willing to slander herself to maintain her innocence, making Ouyang Bin dare not touch her!
He was wondering at the time, how could Ouyang Bin, who was as fierce as a wolf and a tiger, be willing to let her go!
"I'm sorry, Mr. He." Song Li was speechless. What else could she do in a situation like last night? He Qian said he was going out to sea to warn her not to contact him.
He Qian wanted to say something else when he happened to see the needle hole on the vein on her left forearm. Her fair skin made the vein look even redder, which made his pupils sore.
"Go in and tidy up. I'll take a half-hour break after I finish eating."
"Oh." Song Li felt uncomfortable being stared at and quickly ran into the lounge. It seemed that he really didn't sleep the whole night.
Yang Xiao rushed in, holding a USB drive. "Mr. He, this is the surveillance video of Room 1106 last night. I've also sent a copy to your email for backup."
He Qian stood up hurriedly and said everything without missing a word before he could stop Yang Xiao!
Yang Xiao didn't understand why He Qian reacted like this, as if he was afraid of something, and then he saw Song Li standing at the door of the lounge looking at them!
Oops!
If you ask Song Li how he feels, it's probably like being sold and still helping others count money...
But why does her heart hurt so much?
He Qian asked her to receive Ouyang Bin. He knew exactly what kind of person that was. Why did he want her to go to him and humiliate herself? He even wanted to record an "indecent" video to prove her promiscuity?
He Qian, who was always calm in the face of difficulties, was frightened by her gaze. He wanted to go over and explain, but his feet seemed to be rooted and there was a hard object stuck in his throat.
Song Li turned around and went back in without saying a word, but she seemed a little slow in her movements. When had He Qian ever been kind to her? It was good enough that she was not pushed out to die together with Ouyang Bin.
He didn't care about her innocence. Even if she would be lying naked on the bed and being humiliated, he would only use the video as a handle to his advantage.
He Qian suddenly realized how long Song Li had been like this. She no longer refuted, complained, or questioned... It was as if she was like a walking corpse all day long. No matter how badly she was tortured, she would not resist, just like now.
Is she disappointed in him or indifferent to the world?
