Chapter 319 She Moved Away
"I send you."
Qi Huaijing didn't ask Du Yuqian. Instead, he acted as if he wanted what she wanted, which was exactly what Du Yuqian wanted.
The biggest reason why Du Yuqian came back to find Qi Huaijing was that Qi Huaijing was willing to give in no matter what she did and be her licker without asking why.
What's more, given the current situation of their Du family, finding someone like Qi Huaijing is already the best choice.
Du Yuqian also has her own plans. After becoming Mrs. Qi, she will help their Du family make a comeback.
His father originally moved overseas from Chengdu mainly in the hope of clearing up the unclear accounts in China.
No one expected that making it abroad would be a thousand times harder than at home.
Overnight, Du Yuqian went from being a rich lady to a poor girl that no one looked down upon. Whether it was the psychological gap or the reality, she could not tolerate the indifference of others towards her.
"Huai Jing, you don't have to take me home. I'm having a drink with some friends at the bar, so just pick me up later."
Qi Huaijing said "Okay" in a light tone.
Du Yuqian was very satisfied with his performance. This made her believe that Qi Huaijing was sincere to her and would let her call him and leave him at her will.
After sending Du Yuqian to her destination, Qi Huaijing couldn't wait to drive home.
When the housekeeper saw Qi Huaijing coming back so early, he realized that something had happened.
Qi Luoyan was sitting on the sofa in the living room. When she saw Qi Huaijing, she immediately rushed to him.
"Uncle, what happened between you and Aunt? She didn't answer my calls, and when I came back she was gone."
She also went to their bedroom specifically and found that almost all of Zhou Shuang's clothes had been taken away.
But the closet full of cheongsams was still there, so Qi Huaijing rushed upstairs in two steps.
Everything was normal in the room, and the clothes and bedding were neatly folded.
Although everything was there in the room, Qi Huaijing felt that it was empty, and his heart was empty too.
A written divorce agreement was placed on the bedside table. He walked over and picked it up, his heart in a knot.
When Qi Luoyan saw the divorce agreement, it felt like an egg was stuffed in her mouth, and her eyes widened and became round.
"Uncle, what happened between you and aunt? How could it be so serious? You haven't even gotten married yet."
We agreed to hold the wedding on the Mid-Autumn Festival. But the two of them haven't even gotten together yet, so this plan is going to fall through.
Qi Huaijing walked over, picked up the divorce agreement, and tore it to pieces without even looking at it.
Qi Luoyan was shocked. On the one hand, she was worried about Zhou Shuang's disappearance, and on the other hand, she was anxious about their relationship. What on earth had happened? Why did Zhou Shuang suddenly ask for a divorce?
Qi Luoyan just called out "Uncle", but looking at his expressionless face, Qi Luoyan took two steps back.
Qi Huaijing exudes an aura of "keep away from strangers".
"Don't tell my elder brother and his wife about this for now. Shuangshuang and I just had some conflicts and misunderstandings. I will explain it to her when the time comes."
Even a thick-skinned person like Qi Luoyan didn't quite believe what Qi Huaijing said today, and always felt that something was wrong between them.
Based on her understanding of Zhou Shuang during this period, she knew that Zhou Shuang was definitely not a woman who would easily throw tantrums.
Did she discover something?
Qi Luoyan suddenly remembered something. A friend went to see his uncle's company's exhibition and there was a bit of a stir. It was said that there was a woman at the exhibition claiming to be Qi Huaijing's wife.
Because Qi Huaijing is a well-known abstinent bachelor in the circle, and his recent marriage news has also been a hot topic.
Everyone was curious about what kind of woman he would marry, and just then, the incident at the exhibition happened. Qi Luoyan was called by several friends to ask about it.
She had always thought it was a misunderstanding. But her aunt ran away from home today. Could it be related to this incident?
Many years ago, she vaguely knew that her uncle seemed to have been in a relationship with a girl for a period of time.
But my uncle never brought that woman home, nor did he mention her to his family. Everyone just treated his relationship as a trivial matter.
Could it be that there is some bloody drama going on between my uncle and my aunt?
"Uncle, you didn't have any white moonlight that was discovered by your aunt, did you?"
Qi Luoyan's words hit Qi Huaijing's heart like a hammer.
Qi Huaijing's brows were tightly knitted together, almost forming a knot in the middle.
"I've told you before to read books seriously and not be ignorant. Stop reading those brainless novels."
Her uncle criticized her for never speaking such a long sentence. It seemed that he was really angry.
Qi Luoyan secretly stuck out his tongue, also feeling that it was unlikely.
The Qi family had no tradition of being unfaithful. Ever since Qi Luoyan's great-grandfather's generation, the men in the Qi family had always doted on their wives.
"There's just a little misunderstanding between your aunt and me. Stop making wild guesses. If you can contact her, help me keep her stable."
Qi Luoyan felt relieved after hearing the first sentence, but her heart was in her throat again after hearing the second sentence. What does it mean to stay calm?
Qi Luoyan looked at Qi Huaijing and didn't dare to ask him. After all, she was more worried about her aunt.
During this period of time, I felt that my aunt actually liked my uncle very much. My uncle also doted on my aunt very much. How did it suddenly become like this?
"oh……"
Qi Huaijing took out his mobile phone to send a WeChat message to Zhou Shuang, and a red exclamation made his heart sink instantly.
No one answered the phone. It was obvious that Zhou Shuang had blocked him.
Qi Huaijing knew that Zhou Shuang was angry and couldn't hear anything.
Wang Yu called and gave him unsatisfactory news as well.
"Mr. Qi, Mrs. Qi hasn't been found yet. We've checked all the major airlines, but there's no news of Mrs. Qi."
Qi Huaijing couldn't tell whether he felt relieved or his heart was tightening even more.
She hasn't left Rongcheng yet, but with the Zhou family's influence, if Zhou Shuang really wants to leave, she can ask her family to pick her up by private jet.
All private information cannot be easily found even by Qi Huaijing. After all, the Zhou family is superior to the Qi family, and no one dares to easily reveal any information related to them.
Qi Huaijing was in a dilemma at this moment. If it was just a small quarrel between husband and wife, he could fly to Haicheng to find Zhou Shuang immediately.
However, Qi Huaijing seemed not so calm about the misunderstanding of Du Yuqian.
He didn't know where Zhou Shuang had gone, but he knew that her only friend was Qi Luoyan. The problem was that she didn't answer Qi Luoyan's calls now.
It was drizzling on the steps, and Zhou Shuang's mood was just like the weather, gloomy.
After she came out of Qi Huaijing's villa, she did not go to Zhou's hotel because she was afraid that Qi Huaijing would go there to find him.
At this moment, her mood was extremely low. The person she least wanted to see was Qi Huaijing.
She called her father's former assistant Xu Fang and asked him to help her find someone named Du Yuqian.
A reply came quickly. Xu Fang's work efficiency and ability were unquestionable. He faxed Zhou Shuang a complete and detailed account of Du Yuqian's life from birth to the present.
As a qualified special assistant, Xu Fang did not ask anything related to it.
"Uncle Xu, I hope you can help me keep this secret."
Zhou Shuang knew that those who could work in the Zhou family for more than ten years were all extremely smart.
Afraid that he would report it to Lin Shu, Zhou Shuang reminded her in time.
Xu Fang: "Okay, Miss."
The promise lasted only five seconds, and then he wrote down Zhou Shuang's performance during this period in the itinerary report to Lin Shu.
He always followed Lin Shu's orders and kept an eye on Zhou Shuang no matter where she was.
Zhou Shuang had no idea that she had been sold out by her "Uncle Xu" a long time ago.
Lin Shu would get all the reports related to Zhou Shuang every three days, all of which were investigations she asked Xu Fang to do secretly.
After all, this daughter is different from others, and she has always been worried about her.
Even now that I know she has found a good home, I still can't help but want to know her daily updates.
But she never expected that her promising marriage would encounter huge obstacles before it even began.
Lin Shu called her daughter. When Zhou Shuang saw the word "Mommy" on the screen, her eyes instantly turned red.
She thought for a moment, then answered the call.
"Mommy..."
After she uttered two words, Zhou Shuang couldn't help but burst into tears.
Fortunately, Lin Shu on the other end of the phone couldn't see her expression at this moment.
"Shuangshuang, you haven't contacted Mommy for several days. How are you doing recently? When will you be back?"
For Lin Shu, Zhou Shuang not calling her was actually good news. It meant that she was living a happy life and no longer had to worry about her mother day and night and feel the deep guilt.
"Isn't it Mid-Autumn Festival yet? I'll be back when it's Mid-Autumn Festival."
Zhou Shuang tried her best to make her words sound like she was just acting coquettishly, just like usual.
But the attentive Lin Shu had already seen through everything. She didn't say it directly, but beat around the bush. Zhou Shuang was still in grief and anger and didn't notice.
"Okay, Mommy will wait for you to come back. Don't handle anything by yourself, understand?"
Zhou Shuang felt a lump in her throat, but she forced herself to cheer up for fear of worrying her mom.
"No, Mommy, Huai Jing is very good to me."
She said something against her will. It was the first time Zhou Shuang chatted with Lin Shu for nearly an hour before hanging up.
Lin Shu did not ask about her relationship with Qi Huaijing, but was only concerned about her life and other matters, and Zhou Shuang did not doubt it.
After chatting with Lin Shu for a while, Zhou Shuang finally felt a little better.
She rented a house on an old street facing the water. Rain was falling on the steps, and the sound of raindrops hitting the tiles miraculously calmed people's hearts.
Zhou Shuang turned all incoming calls on his phone to silent mode. He could not answer any calls except those from his family members in his address book.
"Shuangshuang, where are you? Let's talk."
"Shuangshuang, you're unfamiliar with this place, don't make me worry. If there's anything, let's go out and solve it face to face. I'll be very worried if you hide."
She stopped Qi Huaijing from calling her, but she couldn't stop those on the blacklist from receiving text messages as usual.
Zhou Shuang sat under the eaves listening to the rain. There was a pot of tea on the small coffee table next to her. The old-fashioned teapot was sizzling with smoke, which was the sound of boiling water.
There is an easel beside her. In the misty rain of Jiangnan, she waves the brush in her hand to depict a rainy scene in the distance.
As the brush in his hand moved, gradually, a beautiful picture of misty rain in the south of the Yangtze River emerged clearly on the paper.
She removed the charcoal from the stove, and the sound of the old-fashioned teapot disappeared.
Occasionally, she would pick up her phone and glance at the text messages. Messages from Qi Huaijing popped up one by one, and she read through them one by one, deleting each one after she finished reading it.
Until all his information is cleared.
Zhou Shuang took a sip of tea and continued to paint with her brush, concentrating on painting, as if there was no ripple in her heart.
However, when the smoke from the cooking stove appeared on the paper, she suddenly lost interest.
Throwing down the half-finished painting, she picked up the seal in her hand and began to carve it carefully.
However, no matter how she tried to divert her attention, Qi Huaijing's face remained in her mind.
The evening breeze mixed with rain water mixed into the house, bringing a hint of dampness. She fried two side dishes and leaned against the window to have a drink.
The knife-shaped wine I ordered from the century-old shop on the corner of the street burns my throat as soon as I take a sip.
After taking just a small sip, he felt choked. Zhou Shuang looked at the scenery before him, and an unprecedented sense of loneliness came over him.
Qi Huaijing was not with her on this trip here again, and she felt a little less romantic, but she was calm inside.
This was the reason she chose Rongcheng. For the mistakes she made in her childhood, she wanted to use her life to atone for them.
Zhou Shuang was serious about Qi Huaijing. She had never liked or loved someone like this before, but it was also because of this sudden favor that she lost herself.
She once naively thought that this was her destiny, that she would find someone who loved her in Rongcheng and complete the perfect circle of her incomplete life.
Zhou Shuang took a sip of wine and felt the burning pain.
She still made a mistake. Perhaps this was her true fate. People like her would never get excited, so she got her retribution.
My mind was drowsy with thoughts of many things. A pot of wine was quickly finished. The food on the table remained untouched.
She was drunk and slumped over the table, motionless.
Qi Huaijing found this place because a kind aunt led him the way.
The aunt thought he was a successful grandson who had returned to bring honor to his family, so when she heard he wanted to find someone, she immediately helped him find the way.
Qi Huaijing asked and inquired along the way and finally found Zhou Shuang's residence.
In this small village by the water, people rarely lock their doors at night and rarely pick up things on the streets.
The people in this village love to visit each other, and almost every household keeps their doors open.
The house Zhou Shuang rented was no exception.
She booked a small courtyard with its own entrance and fell asleep on the table after drinking too much.
Qi Huaijing saw her face had become thinner after not seeing her for a few days, and his heart ached slightly in his chest.
He walked closer and smelled a strong aroma of wine.
The porcelain white wine glass was overturned on the table, with a few drops of liquor flowing out, and the air was filled with the rich aroma of wine.
Qi Huaijing frowned. She was a girl, drinking this kind of wine without even eating any snacks. Did she want to ruin her body?
