Chapter 77 Murder?
From the time they came back to Gu's house until now, they have never come down to eat on time, and they have always been together.
It’s a bit strange that he didn’t get up to have breakfast today and didn’t even have lunch.
Especially Li Zhi, who usually eats more than anyone else, why does she suddenly have no appetite today?
Aunt Zhang collected herself, closed the lid of the rice cooker, walked out of the kitchen, and continued to wait by the dining table, awaiting instructions at any time.
After finishing the meal, Li Yanjing was about to reach out to take the tray that Zhang Ma had just put the food on, but he saw Jiang Ruyun take it before him and heard her say, "Let me do it. I'll go up and see what's wrong with your mother. Why doesn't she want to eat?"
Li Yanjing curled up his hands on the table, his brain working rapidly, thinking about how to stop Jiang Ruyun from going into the room.
Jiang Ruyun left the table with the tray. Seeing Li Yanjing still sitting there, she asked, "What's wrong, Yanjing?"
Li Yanjing pursed her lips, got down from the chair, walked up to her and stopped, "It's okay, grandma, let's go."
Jiang Ruyun responded and immediately took him out of the restaurant.
After seeing the two leave, Aunt Zhang withdrew her gaze and called out to Gu Yanran, who was about to leave. "Miss."
Gu Yanran paused, turned to look at her, a hint of impatience flashing in her eyes, "What's wrong?"
"I found that the mother and son were a little strange today." Aunt Zhang whispered.
Gu Yanran instantly became interested after hearing this, "Why is it strange?"
Aunt Zhang immediately told her about the strange things that happened to Li Zhi and her son today.
Gu Yanran frowned after hearing this, but didn't think it was a big deal. "Isn't it just that I didn't get up for breakfast, and I just woke up and have no appetite for lunch? What's so strange about that?"
"But he said Li Zhi doesn't like others entering her room, but there are servants who clean her room every day..." Aunt Zhang paused, then continued, "And I feel like he doesn't want me to go upstairs to deliver food..."
Gu Yanran narrowed her eyes slightly, thought for a moment, and decided to go upstairs to take a look. After all, it wouldn't hurt to take a look. "Okay, I got it."
After she finished speaking, she quickly left the restaurant.
......
Third floor.
Jiang Ruyun followed Li Yanjing and walked into Li Zhi's room.
Her eyes fell on Li Zhi, who was lying on the bed with her back facing away, and she said, "Zhi Zhi, what's wrong with you today? Are you feeling unwell? Why don't you even want to eat lunch?"
However, after she finished speaking, the person on the bed didn't react at all.
"Zhizhi?"
Jiang Ruyun frowned slightly, walked quickly to the bed and stopped, and saw Li Zhi with his eyes closed, seemingly sleeping.
Li Yanjing's eyes flickered, and he raised his hand to tug at Jiang Ruyun's clothes, and said softly, "Grandma, Mom must have fallen asleep again. Why don't we go out first and talk to her after she wakes up completely."
Jiang Ruyun didn't think much about it, but she was just wondering why she was so sleepy today and she hadn't woken up yet.
I don’t know what time she went to bed last night, why did she suddenly stay up late?
Jiang Ruyun nodded, glanced at Li Zhi who was sleeping on the bed, turned around and left the room with the food in her hand.
As soon as the two walked out of the room and closed the door behind them, they saw Gu Yanran walking towards them.
Her eyes fell on the thing in Jiang Ruyun's hand, and she asked with concern: "Mom, what's going on? Sister doesn't want to eat?"
Jiang Ruyun was still angry about what happened yesterday, so her attitude towards Gu Yanran was naturally colder. "She fell asleep again. Let's wait until she wakes up completely."
"Falling asleep again?" Gu Yanran's eyes flashed with surprise, "What's wrong with Sister today? Are you feeling unwell?"
"I stayed up too late last night," Jiang Ruyun said.
Gu Yanran glanced at the closed door and nodded, "So that's how it is. Then I'm relieved. Mom, I'll go back to my room first."
"Okay." Jiang Ruyun responded.
Gu Yanran glanced at Li Yanjing, then turned and left.
She said she was going back to her room, but she didn't. Instead, she found a shelter and hid there.
Seeing Jiang Ruyun and Li Yanjing walk into the elevator and go downstairs together, he immediately walked out from behind the shelter and walked towards the door of Li Zhi's room.
Gu Yanran walked to the door of the room and stopped, then raised her hand and knocked on the door twice.
After waiting for a few seconds and seeing no movement inside, he looked around, reached out, unscrewed the doorknob, opened the room, and walked in lightly.
Gu Yanran looked at Li Zhi lying on the bed with her back to him and frowned. She was really sleeping.
She glanced around the room that originally belonged to her but no trace of its original form could be seen anymore, and her hands hanging by her side tightened involuntarily.
Just as Gu Yanran was about to turn around and leave the room, she suddenly stopped and walked straight to the bed and stopped.
She looked at Li Zhi's sleeping face, and a sinister look flashed in her eyes.
It was her appearance that took away everything that originally belonged to him.
Now even Jiang Ruyun, who loves him the most, has become much colder towards him.
She was very anxious. If this continued, she would soon lose her place in the family.
She doesn't want to live a poor life.
If Li Zhi disappeared, would everything return to normal?
Thinking of this, Gu Yanran walked closer to the bed, reached out to pick up the pillow on the bedside, and slowly covered Li Zhi's face with it.
Her eyes were filled with cruelty, and she held the pillow tightly with both hands, trying to suffocate Li Zhi.
But she soon came to her senses, suddenly let go of the pillow, and subconsciously took a step back.
Gu Yanran looked at Li Zhi who was lying motionless on the bed. Her pupils suddenly contracted and her expression changed drastically.
Her eyes were filled with panic and fear, and her heart was beating wildly. Could it be that Li Zhi was really suffocated to death by her?
"Lizhi?"
Gu Yanran slowly reached out and removed the pillow that was still covering Li Zhi's face.
She still had her eyes closed and her hair was messy.
But the expression on his face seemed too peaceful, it didn't look like he had suffocated to death, it looked like he was asleep.
Gu Yanran was so panicked that she had no time to think about it or pay attention to what was wrong.
She swallowed and reached under Li Zhi's nose with trembling fingers, and found that there was no breathing at all!
"ah!"
Gu Yanran was so frightened that her legs went limp and she fell to the ground.
The blood drained from her face in an instant, leaving her as pale as paper. Her lips trembled, and she couldn't believe that she had actually killed someone.
Gu Yanran's mind went blank. She hurriedly got up from the ground and left the room quickly without looking back.
She walked back to her room on the second floor with a shaky step, closed the door, walked to the bed and sat down weakly.
Gu Yanran was in a state of confusion, all the blood in her body rushed to her fingertips, and she trembled constantly.
Her fingernails dug deep into her palms, and she tried hard to calm herself down but couldn't.
"What should I do? What should I do? I killed someone..."
