"The person is already dead and cannot be saved. I hope you can stay calm," said the paramedic.
Calm down? Tao Bao felt dizzy and couldn't believe what was happening before his eyes.
How could Aunt Qiu die? How could it be possible? She didn't believe it!
Aunt Qiu had just called her! How come she just… disappeared in the blink of an eye?
It shouldn't be like this!
Tao Bao staggered forward to check what was going on. Were they lying to her? Was Aunt Qiu actually still salvageable?
The police stopped her and said, "Don't come near. We need to investigate and collect evidence."
Several police officers have already rushed to the apartment on the eighth floor to investigate whether it was an accidental fall or homicide.
"May I ask who the deceased is to you?" the police asked.
Tao Bao looked at the police officer in front of him who was asking questions, his whole body trembling, tears falling silently in his eyes.
The police officer sighed and said, "I know you're heartbroken, but a thorough investigation is the greatest respect for the deceased."
"It's my aunt, who has always taken care of me... She called me but I didn't answer, and she called me but she didn't answer either. I was worried so I came to check on her. I happened to be there..." Tao Bao pointed to the floor below, "...and fell down."
"Why are you worried?"
"I don't know..." Tao Bao shook his head in despair. At that time, he just felt uneasy...
"Besides calling you today, has she done anything else unusual?" the police asked.
Tao Bao was silent. Lately, he had either been recording a program or fighting with Zhou Xuan over the matter of his watch. Xiao Hanyuan's mind was also on Xiao Zhi, so he didn't notice anything was wrong with Aunt Qiu at all...
It's her fault...
The police officer who was investigating upstairs came down and said, "We've ruled out homicide for now. He probably fell while cleaning the bathroom. There's a rag and a cell phone on the balcony. We'll take them to the police station for inspection."
An unexpected fall... Tao Bao's eyes were filled with tears. Why did he treat Aunt Qiu like this...
"Let's get the body for an autopsy first," said the police.
Tao Bao stared blankly as the medical examiner put Aunt Qiu into the body bag. The police officer told her, "If there's nothing suspicious, we'll let you know."
The police left.
Tao Bao stood there, his head trembling and his feet light. He stepped back, staggered and fell. Just when he thought he was going to fall to the ground, someone hugged him from behind in time.
The firm and steady embrace made her look up. When her tearful eyes met the familiar deep black eyes, she trembled convulsively and a tear rolled down.
Si Minghan picked her up and turned to carry her to the car.
The car left the community and drove into the traffic.
After getting in the car, Tao Bao was held by Si Minghan all the time. He sat on his lap with his eyes downcast, motionless, with tears on his face.
"Let me take care of this." Si Minghan said as he wiped her face with his rough fingertips.
"The police said it was an accidental fall... Maybe I called Aunt Qiu and she was cleaning the windows, and then she accidentally..." Before Tao Bao could finish his words, his jaw was pinched, and his face was turned to face Si Minghan, his eyes filled with tears as he looked at him tremblingly.
"It's not your fault. You wouldn't drop the phone even if you heard the call. This is an accident." Si Minghan looked at her with deep eyes.
Tao Bao didn't say anything, tears kept dripping down his face.
Si Minghan held her head and pressed her into his arms.
Tao Bao lay weakly on his strong chest, closed his eyes, and tears dripped onto Si Minghan's black shirt, soaking it and disappearing.
The car was driving steadily on the road. Tao Bao leaned in Si Minghan's arms, not moving or speaking. The grief made her drowsy. It seemed that no matter where Si Minghan took her, she would not resist.
Tao Bao didn't know when he fell asleep, and when he woke up he was in a large bed.
Mo's room is a high-end luxury that ordinary people cannot afford.
There was no one else in the room.
She remembered that she was in Si Minghan's arms before she fell asleep...
Could this be a room in Hanyuan?
Lift the quilt and get out of bed, walk through the movable glass door, and there is a large open-air balcony outside.
Walking to the edge of the guardrail, the salty and humid wind blew on my face, and the endless Haydn came into view.
Tao Bao was stunned. Is this the sea? His mind seemed to be suddenly drawn far away by its vastness, and the heavy pain in his heart eased slightly.
This can't be Hanyuan, because Hanyuan is not by the sea.
If I'm not mistaken, this is a sea view villa in Kyoto. Every inch of land there is worth a lot of money, and even the first-rate or third-rate wealthy families may not be able to afford it.
Not to mention how big the villa is with three floors on top.
For Si Minghan, wealth and power were within his reach.
Then there is nothing to think about, it was Si Minghan who brought her here.
Feeling the turbulence of the air being invaded, Tao Bao's mind was focused by the familiar aura behind him.
Looking up, Si Minghan's black body made her eyes tremble slightly.
"Why did you bring me here?" Tao Bao lowered his eyes, "Or... to the Hanyuan!"
"Are you sure you want to do it?" Si Minghan's voice fell in a low voice.
"The child can't see Aunt Qiu, but at least he can't see us... I'm not happy." Tao Bao took a deep breath and looked into the distance with tears in his eyes. "Aunt Qiu doesn't want me to ignore the child..."
Si Minghan's dark eyes darkened slightly. He stepped forward, grabbed Tao Bao's chin, and pushed her against the guardrail, "Then..."
The words fell with the kiss, enveloping Tao Bao's small mouth.
Tao Bao's eyes trembled, and his breathing and emotions were guided and controlled.
The car drove into Hanyuan.
When Tao Bao got out of the car, he saw the little one running towards him happily——
"Mom!"
She clung to Tao Bao like a meat ball and held onto her legs tightly.
"Mom, I've been waiting for you!" Ji laughed in a baby voice.
"Mommy is really fat!" Xiaojun.
Tao Bao looked at Zhang's excited little face and said, "Yes, Mommy is here. Are you happy?"
"Happy!" Dongdong raised his hands.
"Happy...happy..." Jingjing said weakly.
"So happy!" Ximei shook her two pigtails.
"Mom!" Mangzi was cute and excited.
"As long as you are happy." Tao Bao tried hard to suppress his laughter.
Ji smiled and raised his face, "Mom, Grandma Qiu hasn't gained weight yet!"
"Well, there's no Fatty!" Xiaojun said.
Tao Bao looked dazed for a moment, trying to hide his inner sadness, and said, "Grandma is fine, she won't come tonight..."
"Will grandma come tomorrow? She will help me braid my hair!" said Ximei.
"Mommy will give you the injection tomorrow morning, okay?" Tao Bao asked, enduring the heat in his eyes.
"good!"
"Come on, come in and eat." Si Minghan spoke, interrupting the little one's chattering questions.
After dinner, Tao Bao took the children outside to play.
In the past, Aunt Qiu was always by my side, but now Aunt Qiu will never come again...
Tao Bao didn't understand, was it possible that she didn't deserve family affection?
After her grandmother passed away, the 'mother' she met again plotted against her because they had no blood relationship, and now even Aunt Qiu had left her.
What did she do wrong...
In the study, Si Minghan was answering the phone, "What did you find out?"
"Aunt Qiu only had two calls today, one from Tao Bao and the other from Tao Shiming."
