"You are really something. Didn't you say that you don't like Gu Yunzhou? Why are you..." Chen Mengchu didn't say the rest of the words. After all, this was her own business, and she didn't say much.
"yes!"
But how can I let go of someone I like?
She wanted to give herself a chance and leave no regrets.
She would not force him or threaten him again.
I just want to be with him as his younger sister.
That's all.
"Mrs. Lu, thank you for your words. I understand."
"I came here to cut off this relationship and put an end to my love."
This love must have an ending.
Even though that love is not perfect.
After a moment of silence, Chen Mengchu answered Qi Yue again.
"Love is one-sided, and it is impossible after all."
"You deserve someone better, and I hope you can find the right person this time."
Chen Mengchu typed to persuade Qi Yue. She was afraid that her harsh tone would make her sad, so she had to say this.
"Okay." Qi Yue replied with one word and then stopped talking.
And Chen Mengchu also put down his phone.
At this time, Lu Jingxiao walked in with a plate of fruit in his hand.
"What's wrong? You look so worried." Lu Jingxiao asked Chen Mengchu, put the plate in his hand on the table beside him, and sat next to Chen Mengchu.
"fine."
Chen Mengchu shook her head and had no intention of telling Lu Jingxiao about Qi Yue's affairs. After all, for Qi Yue, this was her private matter, and she could not tell her private affairs to anyone, including Lu Jingxiao.
Seeing what Chen Mengchu was thinking, Lu Jingxiao did not ask any further questions.
"Eat some fruit. I'm going to get busy now."
Lu Jingxiao stood up and left, leaving Chen Mengchu alone in the room.
After Chen Mengchu thought of something, he sent a message to Qi Yue.
"The company has a job posting. You can apply for it. This way you can be closer to Gu Yunzhou."
After Chen Mengchu sent the text message, he went into the bathroom.
When I came out again, I received Qi Yue's thanks.
Chen Mengchu curled the corners of his lips, put his phone aside, and opened the laptop beside him.
Watching TV series and eating fruits, it’s so relaxing.
Just when Shen Mengchu was absorbed in watching...
Her cell phone suddenly rang, breaking this pleasant moment.
"Hello."
Because he didn't know who the other person was, Chen Mengchu had to ask politely.
“Is it Miss Shen?”
The person on the other end of the phone was also quite polite.
"yes."
Chen Mengchu paused the video on the computer.
"We are at the police station. There is a female corpse that we need you to identify."
"Who?" Chen Mengchu asked subconsciously.
"As far as we know, it should be Shen Qingli."
"It has nothing to do with me, and I don't want to go over there." Chen Mengchu told the truth and told the police that this person had nothing to do with her, and also told the police that she didn't want to go over there to identify him.
"Please come over here, Miss Shen." The police's voice was very serious, and did not allow Shen Mengchu to have the slightest hesitation.
Chen Mengchu bit her lip and finally agreed.
"Okay, I'll be right there."
After hanging up the phone, Chen Mengchu closed his computer, changed his clothes and went downstairs.
Chen Mengchu's voice startled Lu Jingxiao.
He hurried out of the study.
"Where are you going so late?" Lu Jingxiao's voice was cold, yet with a hint of tenderness.
"Go to the police station."
"Can you come with me?"
Chen Mengchu asked Lu Jingxiao while standing on the stairs.
She couldn't drive, so if she went out, she would have to trouble the villa's driver. If Lu Jingxiao could give her a ride...
"good."
Lu Jingxiao nodded and walked down the stairs.
"It's so late, why did you think of going to the Public Security Bureau?" Lu Jingxiao asked Chen Mengchu. His voice was not as cold as before, but instead had a touch of warmth.
"The police station called me and asked me to come over and identify a female corpse."
Since I have agreed to let Lu Jingxiao go with me, there is no need to hide it anymore.
After all, you'll know sooner or later.
"Who is it?" Lu Jingxiao asked Chen Mengchu in a serious tone.
"It's Shen Qingli."
Lu Jingxiao's tone also became serious.
Seeing that Lu Jingxiao had guessed it immediately, Chen Mengchu didn't say anything but nodded.
"Let's go over there."
He saw what Lu Jingxiao wanted to say and said it before he could even finish his words.
Chen Mengchu had already spoken. Lu Jingxiao didn't want to refute her, so he took her hand and walked out of the villa.
——————
Police station.
After Lu Jingxiao got out of the car, he helped Chen Mengchu open the door and walked in holding her hand.
When the leader saw that the person who came in was Lu Jingxiao, he quickly stepped forward and greeted him, "Mr. Lu, why are you here?"
"What do you think?" Lu Jingxiao asked instead of answering.
"You called my wife to come over. Shouldn't I be the one asking you this? Hmm."
There was a hint of displeasure in Lu Jingxiao's low and hoarse voice, and his eyes were cold. There was no warmth in his eyes when he looked at them, which made them feel even more scared.
"Mr. Lu...Mr. Lu, I'm sorry."
The man apologized quickly.
"Mr. Lu, this is official business. Please excuse me for troubling your wife."
Chen Mengchu reached out and hooked Lu Jingxiao's finger, hoping that he would not be angry.
This scene was also seen by people from the police station.
"Mr. Lu, please let your wife take a look."
The man asked Lu Jingxiao cautiously, fearing that one word would make Chen Mengchu unhappy.
"good."
He agreed before Lu Jingxiao even opened his mouth.
If he really told it, things would become serious again.
She doesn't want to be on the headlines of Weibo again.
Chen Mengchu followed the police inside.
"Mrs. Lu, please take a look and confirm it."
Chen Mengchu walked over and took a look at the female corpse.
It was Shen Qingli, no doubt. She had a black mole behind her ear, and she had been injured when she was a child, leaving a deep scar on her little finger.
The doctor said that this scar would always be with her. When she grew up, Shen Qingli did not choose to remove the scar but kept it.
At this moment, it also proves the symbol of her identity.
"How did she..."
Looking at the person lying there, his clothes were tattered, there were bruises and marks all over his body, there was a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth, and the right side of his face was a little swollen, it looked like he had been beaten.
Looking at this scene, Chen Mengchu narrowed his eyes but said nothing more.
The police explained to Chen Mengchu.
"We found her in the bushes, and someone else called the police. As for her death... she must have been beaten to death, and there was also that filth in her body."
Shen Mengchu listened to half of the police's words and understood the cause of Shen Qingli's death.
She didn't know what she was thinking, she just left the morgue in silence.
"Why don't you call her mother?"
Chen Mengchu asked Lu Jingxiao in confusion, with a hint of doubt and suspicion in his heart.
