Zhao Xiaowan was dead. Tang Ruochu sat in a chair outside the Emergency Room, her hands trembling nonstop and her body shaking uncontrollably. She had not gotten over the terror of seeing Zhao Xiaowan falling. The moment she closed her eyes, the scene of Zhao Xiaowan dropping to her death would replay in her mind. She could not believe that her nemesis, Zhao Xiaowan, had died just like that. Even though she resented her, she had never wished for things to get to that point. Gu Ruoruo's heartwrenching cries kept coming from the Emergency Room, and the sorrow in her voice pounded against her head like a hammer. It was painful and extremely uncomfortable. Xing Qi walked out of the Emergency Room and saw Tang Ruochu sitting alone. Furrowing his brows, he approached her and found her shaking. "Ms. Tang, are you all right?" he asked in concern. Hearing his voice, Tang Ruochu looked up and saw him. She forced herself to speak. "I'm fine." Xing Qi frowned even more. "Ms. Tang,
Seeing how dark her eye bags were, they also knew that she had not been sleeping well, and their hearts ached even more. Song Anyi walked over, sat next to her, and gently placed her hand on her shoulder as she softly asked, "How about we accompany you out for a walk and some relaxation? You'll start to dwell on stuff when you’re bored at home." "That's right. Let's go shopping," Ying Xiaoxiao echoed. Shijin was busy at work, but he deliberately took his work home to accompany her for several days. Later on, she found that it was too troublesome for him and forbade him from doing it again. Despite that, he was worried about leaving her alone at home, so he called Xiaoxiao and Anyi to keep her company. She saw the worry in their eyes, and if she worried them anymore, she would really feel bad. The person was already dead, and it would be right for her to assume that everything was in the past. She still needed to carry on with her life. She smiled and nodded. "Okay, let's
Since he had promised Xu Wenjing that he would bring her out for a meal, Shen Mofei really took the time off to accompany her. After dinner, she wanted him to go shopping with her. To be honest, he and Anyi had been dating for some time now, but he had yet to even go out shopping with Anyi. He originally did not want to join her, but he could not bear Xu Wenjing's earnest pleading, so he agreed in the end. Compared with Xu Wenjing's enthusiastic shopping mood, Shen Mofei was a little absent-minded. At first, he wanted to send her back straight after dinner and then go look for Anyi, but now that they were shopping, he had no idea when it would end. He raised his hand and looked at his watch, his handsome face starting to appear quite impatient. "Third Brother, the clothes in that store look good. Let's go and have a look." Xu Wenjing was immersed in the joy of his willingness to accompany her and naturally ignored his obvious impatience. She took his hand and said, "Third B
Her appearance was plain all right, but the smile on her face was extremely genuine and kind. It did not look like it belonged to a scheming person at all. "Xu Wenjing, I don't think we’re familiar enough for a casual hello," Ying Xiaoxiao sneered. There was nothing but disdain in her eyes. A trace of embarrassment flashed across Xu Wenjing's face as she smiled. "We are indeed not familiar enough with each other." The moment she saw Mofei and Xu Wenjing walking together, Song Anyi's emotions had already become turbulent, but she did not want her friends to worry, so she forced herself to remain calm. She picked up her glass of water and took a sip, not looking at Xu Wenjing at all. As her best friend, Tang Ruochu saw her true thoughts. She was hurting deep inside but pretending to be indifferent. The corner of Tang Ruochu’s mouth twitched helplessly. She pretended to be casual and asked, "Ms. Xu, has Mofei gone back? Where did he go?" "Yes, he’s gone back." Xu Wenjing smi
"Chuchu..." When she heard her name, Tang Ruochu turned her head and saw Ying Xiaoxiao leaning close to her ear, and she whispered, "I think she's lying. She must have another motive." Tang Ruochu raised one of her eyebrows and looked at Xiaoxiao who was sure of her speculation. Pursing her lips, she swept her gaze over Anyi, and a thought appeared in her mind. Following that, she trained her eyes on Xu Wenjing's ordinary face as the corner of her mouth rose. "Ms. Xu, is that all you wanted to say?" Xu Wenjing was taken aback. "That's it." Tang Ruochu continued to smile politely. "We have some personal matters to talk about. Would you mind moving away for a moment?" She was hinting her to leave. Xu Wenjing smiled. "Of course. You three can slowly chat, then. We'll talk again when we have the opportunity." After she said that, she bowed slightly before she turned around. As soon as she turned around, the smile on her face instantly disappeared, and gloom took its place
The next moment, a whole load of search results popped up with news of Ning Qiaoqiao's disappearance at the top. She clicked on the news article and read it carefully. From the story, she only knew that Ning Qiaoqiao had disappeared on her way back to Beining, and nothing had turned up in police investigation yet. "Sis Ruochu, you think this person would disappear for no reason?" Xiao Xu, who was standing behind her, asked. Tang Ruochu shook her head slightly before she leaned back in her chair and bit her fingers, seemingly deep in thought. She seemed to have an answer for Ning Qiaoqiao’s disappearance. "Sis Ruochu..." Xiao Xu called out to her after he saw that she was still silent after a long while. Tang Ruochu snapped out of her daze and looked at him with a smile. "What's wrong?" Xiao Xu looked around then leaned over to her ear and whispered, "Sis Ruochu, do you think someone kidnapped Ning Qiaoqiao?" Tang Ruochu blinked. "Why would you say that?" Xiao Xu thought
"It’s not like you can get rid of this relationship either." That was what Ji Yinfeng said before he hung up. Tang Ruochu did not want to argue so she hung up as well. In fact, the moment she heard about Ning Qiaoqiao's disappearance, the first thought that flashed through her mind was that it definitely had something to do with Gu Ruoruo. Now, she was completely certain that Ning Qiaoqiao's disappearance was Gu Ruoruo's doing. That meant, Gu Ruoruo had kidnapped Ning Qiaoqiao and blamed it on her to get Ji Yinfeng and the Ji Family to target her. Sure enough, it was a way to kill two birds with one stone. However, Gu Ruoruo’s calculations and schemes were still off. Tang Ruochu was not a fool, so how could she not see that something was not right? Originally, Ning Qiaoqiao's disappearance had nothing to do with her, but now that Gu Ruoruo was behind it, she would probably be caught up to her neck. Tang Ruochu groaned helplessly, wondering if she should go to the temple t
Xu Meng raised his eyebrows and got up. "Right, we'll head back first then." Xu Meng quickly left with the other officers, and the entire room instantly turned quiet, as though they had never been there before. Tang Ruochu recalled the message Elder Lu had gotten Xu Meng to convey to Shijin, and her brows slowly creased. Pondering for a moment, she asked, "Shijin, would Qiaoqiao's disappearance have anything to do with your father?" Hearing that, Shijin turned and looked at her, his eyes deep. "He has nothing to do with it." Nothing to do with it? Tang Ruochu furrowed her brows even more. If he had nothing to do with it, why did the investigating officer happen to be someone who knew his father? "He's just taking the opportunity to give me a warning." Lu Shijin said plainly. A warning? Tang Ruochu immediately understood. "Is it possible that he’s planning to act against me?" Lu Shijin nodded. "Yes, no matter who caused Ning Qiaoqiao's disappearance, he’ll try to tie eve
