At that time, he was choked by the thick smoke and his consciousness was confused.
However, he still clearly remembered many of the words the little girl had said to him.
She said he was really unlucky and was almost burned to death in the fire.
She gave him half of the amulet that her grandfather had made for her, and he would definitely not be so unlucky in the future.
She also said that her grandfather was very talented, but the amulets made by Lu Ban’s descendants for generations were very exquisite!
The two halves of the amulet can be worn separately, and when put together, they mean "peace every year."
The amulet she gave him had the word "peace" engraved on it.
The half of the amulet that fell into the pool of blood had the word "Sui Sui" engraved on it.
Qin Cheng slowly bent down and picked up the half blood-stained amulet on the ground with trembling fingertips.
Sure enough, the half of the amulet and the half in his hand just happened to fit together.
After the amulet is put together, it fits perfectly without any trace of being pieced together. It is worthy of the craftsmanship of Lu Ban's descendants.
But when he was a child, the person who saved him from the fire at the risk of his own life was obviously Gu Mengwan. How did that half amulet end up in Ruan Qinghuan's hands?
Could it be that the person who saved him back then was not Gu Mengwan at all, but Ruan Qinghuan?
If his savior was really Ruan Qinghuan, but he had someone hit her to death intentionally, what does that mean?
Extreme panic devoured his heart in an instant.
He couldn't believe this was possible.
Because he couldn't accept it, he pushed his savior into hell with his own hands!
"Young man, what's wrong with you?"
The cleaning lady saw that something was wrong with him and couldn't help but ask him a few words of concern, "Is the girl who had the car accident your friend?"
"Oh! This little girl is so pitiful!"
"She was so beautiful. I heard she was in the dance team of the cultural troupe. But now..."
"I heard that when she was carried into the ambulance, she was already dead. There was no way she could be saved."
"Don't be sad, young man. Life and death are determined by fate. You can't force it!"
"What did you say?"
Qin Cheng, who was originally holding the pieced-together amulet, couldn't help but hunch over with his upright body.
After hearing what the cleaning lady said, he suddenly raised his face and looked at her with red eyes, "Who did you say is dead?"
"It's the little girl who got in the car accident..."
Facing Qin Cheng's bloodshot eyes, the cleaning lady felt a little sorry for him and couldn't help but sigh heavily again.
However, she still said truthfully, "Such a good girl, she is only about 18 or 19 years old? What a pity..."
Qin Cheng didn't hear what the cleaning lady said next.
What kept repeating in his mind was what she said, Ruan Qinghuan is dead...
No more air...
What does out of breath mean?
How come Ruan Qinghuan is dead?
He pressed his chest in pain, but even though he had used all his strength, the blunt knife was slicing at his heart, and he still couldn't live or die.
He didn't want to believe that he would kill his savior.
But he had already vaguely realized in his heart that Gu Mengwan had deceived him, and the person who saved him that year was most likely Ruan Qinghuan.
He didn't care that tomorrow was his wedding with Gu Mengwan, he was eager to find out everything.
His whole body was shaking as if it were being sieved.
In particular, his fingers were shaking as if they had received an electric shock, and he couldn't even hold the steering wheel steadily.
He wanted to get to the bottom of it all, so he had to go to where the accident happened - his hometown in the countryside.
There was no way he could drive himself back to the country in this state.
He could only find a few good brothers and ask them to take turns driving him back.
"Drive faster!"
His good brother was driving very fast, but he still felt it was slow.
After the fire, Xia Zhi said that it was Gu Mengwan who saved him.
When his parents asked Gu Mengwan, she nodded.
The fire started in the Qin family's old house.
Several neighbors living near the old house also said that they saw it. It was the daughter of the Gu family who carried him out of the dilapidated Qin family old house amidst the thick smoke and fire.
Qin Cheng knew that if it was really Ruan Qinghuan who saved him, if he went to question Xia Zhi or Gu Mengwan in prison now, neither of them would tell the truth.
The only way to find out the truth of this matter is to find those neighbors and ask them who saved him!
In the second half of the night, Qin Cheng and others finally arrived in the countryside.
There are no street lights in the countryside, and it is pitch black at night.
Qin Cheng knew that at this time, the villagers had already rested, but he couldn't care less now.
Without waiting for the car to arrive, he pushed open the door, jumped out quickly, and slammed the door of one of the neighbors.
His good brothers also helped him break down the doors of the remaining neighbors.
The noise they made was so loud that soon the neighbors who were sleeping soundly came out yawning.
"Who is it?"
The first person to open the door was Aunt Yan.
Although the Qin family had not returned to their old house for many years, Qin Cheng had lived in the countryside for many years and his overall facial features had not changed much from his childhood, so Aunt Yan recognized him at a glance.
She knew that the Qin family was very powerful.
Qin Cheng's grandfather, father, and cousin all became high-ranking officials in the capital.
She felt that Qin Cheng would definitely give them some benefits when he came back, so she smiled and said, "It's Xiaocheng. Have you eaten? Come to my house..."
Before Aunt Yan could finish her words, the knife in Qin Cheng's hand was already against her neck.
