Chapter 117 Death without Evidence
“Didn’t you see the message I sent? Or are you so bold as to simply ignore me?” Yun Che cursed fiercely, glaring at her with eyes that made him want to beat her up.
Su Xiao bit her lip and said nothing.
"Is this man the one He Yishan has a crush on? Have you forgotten what He Yishan did to you? Aren't you afraid that she'll see you and cause trouble again?"
"Senior Gao and I are on good terms. He has helped me a lot." Su Xiao also explained.
“What did he help you with? Did he help you, so you keep running out to meet him? Su Xiao, if He Yisan gives you trouble again, don’t expect me to clean up the mess for you!” Yun Che growled at the end, practically gritting his teeth.
Su Xiao continued to bite her lip and remained silent.
"Go home early after get off work. I'll be home for dinner tonight!" Yun Che continued, "Go down!"
Su Xiao walked out of the office and met Mingli outside the door.
Mingli smiled at her and said, "The president is jealous. You should try not to contact Gao Chengze in the future. If you really need to, you can talk to him on the phone."
Su Xiao just looked at Mingli without saying anything, feeling depressed.
However, she did not dwell on it too much. After all, she had to worry about her brother's affairs. After get off work, she was going to go home and cook as Yun Che had instructed. But she suddenly called and told her to go directly to the garage.
"Let's eat out tonight and don't cook," he said.
Su Xiao was stunned, but had no objection.
The car drove out of the garage, onto the main road, and arrived at a courtyard-style private restaurant.
"The food here is a little slow to serve. Take a look outside and enjoy the scenery first." Yun Che said to her, and took out his foldable phone to start working.
Su Xiao opened the window and the scenery outside was indeed beautiful. While admiring it, she couldn't help wondering why he suddenly brought her out to eat.
In fact, he had occasionally taken her out to eat before, but at that time everyone had a harmonious relationship. It was only a few days ago that he and she had a conflict.
Although it can't be called a quarrel, it can be considered a dispute.
Logically, they should have been in a cold war, but he bought her an expensive bracelet when he came back from a business trip, and now he takes her out to dinner.
Also, Mingli said he was jealous.
Really?
But he had clearly said that they were just getting what they needed from each other, and she was just a woman to satisfy his sexual desires. So how could he be jealous if that was the case?
Su Xiao was puzzled.
Just then her cell phone rang. It was Gao Chengze.
Su Xiao thought it might be related to her brother's matter, so she answered the call without thinking.
Sure enough, Gao Chengze brought her some unexpected news, "It turns out that He Mingjie was also framed. In fact, all of them were framed. They just wanted to make a little money, but someone deliberately made the matter bigger. These people didn't know anything and fell into the trap."
"Who is the other party? Why do they do this?" Su Xiao couldn't help but ask quickly. According to her understanding, although her brothers were lazy and liked to make enemies, they were all small matters. Moreover, those who made enemies with them would not go to such great lengths to deal with them.
"That's still unclear. We'll continue investigating." Gao Chengze remembered something and asked, "By the way, are you sure your brother doesn't have any grudges with anyone? Because I think this incident is mainly targeting your brother."
Su Xiao thought about it, but couldn't think of anything. "He had a quarrel with the company boss before, but later... they reconciled. As for the rest, I don't know yet. I have to ask my brother."
"Well, ask him. Since they've settled it, it means there won't be any more problems."
In fact, the person who helped with the reconciliation last time was Yun Che, so Su Xiao ruled out the possibility of this boss.
Who is that?
What other powerful person did my brother have a grudge against? Who was so capable as to set a trap to harm him?
Su Xiao fell into deep thought again. Yun Che walked over and took her phone away.
Su Xiao subconsciously tried to grab the phone, but Yun Che wouldn't let her. He hung up the phone and said to her with a sullen face, "Su Xiao, do you really not take my words to heart? What did I just say to you? Are you planning to treat me as dead? Are you so sure that I won't do anything to you?"
"We... have something important to discuss." Su Xiao said.
"What's the matter? How long have you known him? What's the matter that's worth contacting him so frequently? Okay, you said you're both aboveboard, but don't you know that he likes you? Just tell me the truth, do you? " Yun Che's tone was getting colder and colder, and he wanted to strangle her to death.
But he couldn't bear to strangle her to death!
Su Xiao pursed her lips and said nothing.
“If I see you hanging out with him again, I’ll break your arm!” Yun Che said in a vicious voice, then he grabbed her and brought her back to the dinner table.
The dishes were served, and they looked delicious, which made people's appetites grow. However, in this situation, Su Xiao tried her best to restrain her cravings even though she was drooling in her heart.
It wasn't until Yun Che picked up the bowl, filled it with soup, handed it to her, and ordered her to eat that she took action.
The meal was spent in silence.
Maybe it was because the food was so delicious, or maybe it was because she was thinking about her baby, although Su Xiao was not in a very good mood, she still ate with relish and her appetite increased.
Yun Che watched quietly, a satisfied expression on his face, and the anger in his heart dissipated a lot.
After dinner, he did not take her home immediately, but went to the top of the mountain.
From here you can see the entire city. The night view is breathtakingly beautiful, and coupled with the cool night breeze, the feeling is really great!
Su Xiao was immersed in the wonderful experience.
When she got home, she was already asleep.
Yun Che carried her upstairs, took off her clothes and shoes, and carefully placed her on the bed.
Su Xiao slept very soundly, and this was the most peaceful sleep she had had in days.
She felt like she was lying in an embrace, a warm, familiar, and safe embrace that belonged to Yun Che.
She remembered the bracelet he gave her, took her out to dinner, and took him to the top of the mountain to watch the night view, which made her desperate heart seem to see hope again and beat again.
She really hopes that this sweet time can last forever!
But suddenly, a quick and sharp ring of a cell phone interrupted her beautiful dream and woke her up from her sleep.
She was the only one on the bed again. She followed the sound to find her cell phone and discovered that the caller was Gao Chengze.
She hesitated for a moment, but still answered the call. After hearing what Gao Chengze said, her whole body stiffened as if struck by lightning.
Gao Chengze said that He Mingjie fell into the sea while escaping capture and died. His two accomplices also drowned.
After hearing the news, Su Xiao did not think about the possibility that her brother would die without any evidence and could never be cleared of the charges, but the figure of Grandma He flashed through her mind at the first moment.
Grandma He only has this grandson left. Once she finds out that He Mingjie has had an accident, how can she go on living?
No!
She wants to save Grandma He!
Su Xiao threw away her cell phone, hurriedly got up from the bed, quickly washed and changed her clothes, and rushed out of the house without eating or drinking.
