Chapter 373 Gradually calm down
After returning to Inspur Villa, we all went into the villa one by one. As soon as we entered the house, the dinner prepared by the nanny aunt for us came to us.
However, when I walked in, I saw a plate of pig blood and leeks on the dining table. This made me feel sick and hurried over to the bathroom.
I haven't eaten anything for almost a long time, but I only had a dry retching. After my stomach rolled, I even vomited stomach acid. The pain made me distorted my facial features. One hand supported the wall and the other hand tightly covered my abdomen.
Although the pig blood is a dark red color, which is different from the bright red color of the blood, it belongs to the category of red. The scene of Xiao Chenyu falling from the building is always lingering in my mind!
After a while, I barely stood up. When I opened the bathroom door, Ning Bingrou and others stood outside the door, and everyone's faces were full of worry.
"Dongli, are you okay?"
I slowly exhaled and said in a low voice: "I'm fine, but... can the plate of pig blood on the dining table be taken away? I, I can't stand that thing, it looks like blood."
The few people looked at each other, and they all knew that at that time, I gradually understood me after seeing the scene after Xiao Chenyu fell from the building.
Finally, Ning Bingrou walked up. She patiently took out a tissue to wipe the water marks on my face, nodded to me and said softly, "Okay, I'll take it away now. We won't eat that tonight. You go and drink some warm water first and then come to have a meal."
Ning Bingrou's careful care made me feel warm. I squeezed out a smile, then walked to the table outside to drink a large glass of water, and then followed them to the dining table and sat down for supper.
During dinner tonight, everyone tacitly did not mention Xiao Chenyu's incident. After all, I had just come back, and during the meal, I noticed that Ning Bingrou was actually not feeling well, and at some moments, her eyes were a little rosy.
I don’t know if she felt heartbroken by the forty-eight hours I was locked up, or because Xiao Chenyu had such an accident. After all,... Xiao Chenyu and Ning Bingrou had a special relationship. Not only did they get along well in those years abroad, they also spent a short period of time together.
Let's talk about everything when all these things are over.
...
The next day, because something happened yesterday, I didn’t go to work in the company all day today, so I simply slept until I woke up naturally.
After I woke up, it was almost eleven o'clock in the morning, and Ning Bingrou had already gotten up and was not in the room. There was a beige post-note next to the bedside table. I don't have to think about it, it must have been left to me by Ning Bingrou.
Ning Bingrou: "Just leave the company's affairs to me. You have a good rest. I'll ask my aunt to cook porridge for you and eat a lighter one."
While I was watching the message note that Ning Bingrou prepared for me, the sound of her speaking echoed in my heart.
A little while later, I got up and went downstairs to have breakfast. After more than ten hours of sleep, I felt that my health was much better.
After breakfast, I went to the back garden of the villa alone and sat down. My thoughts began to gradually float with a cigarette light. I don’t know when this back garden started, but it became a place for me to “contemplate” without knowing it.
Not long after I sat down, I began to remember what happened to Xiao Chenyu. I recalled the whole thing again, trying to find some clues that were not that right.
Until my memories stopped when I was taken to District Mayor Song’s office yesterday, he was furious and said, “Why are everything said to be ready? But at this time, Xiao Chenyu had an accident of falling from the building?!”. That sentence was like a lingering sound in my mind.
Indeed, on my own side, it is impossible to leak the news. The only person who knows about our actions is Ning Bingrou and I in Inspur Villa, but I cannot doubt Ning Bingrou. Moreover... she leaked these things without any benefit, so this assumption is not valid.
Then... the problem can only be when Xiao Chenyu was alive. The most likely part of the problem was that after we made the phone call that day, Xiao Chenyu and I agreed to conduct a transaction of 30 million yuan in cash and share transfer contracts for those projects in three days!
During these three days, perhaps... someone has mastered this information step by step, and Xiao Chenyu's practices have touched the negative scales or interests of some people. After some review, the most likely problem is the "shocking secret" mentioned to me by Xiao Chenyu during his lifetime!
The forensic doctor explained to Xiao Chenyu's autopsy report that he had hallucinations after taking opq capsules and fell down on the rooftop of Tianhua Building. Who gave him these problematic capsules?
The answer has gradually become clearer... Some people don’t want Xiao Chenyu to tell the “shocking secret”!
When I was thinking all over my mind, the phone on the desk suddenly rang out, and I received a message and a call. I looked at the phone. The caller ID was a note of the name "Qiu Yue". It seemed that Qiu Yue, who was far away in Australia, knew about Xiao Chenyu.
"Hey, Qiu Yue..."
On the other end of the phone, Qiu Yue asked me with a careful tone: "Dongli, I already know what happened in Xiao Chenyu in China. I should have called you long ago, but you were staying in the GA bureau of Binhai New Area for 48 hours before going out. That, you... are you okay?"
"If I can be released, it means I'm fine." I paused for a moment, took a puff of cigarette, and then said in a deep voice: "But I can't forget the scene at that time. Now it's much better. I'm still reviewing where the problem lies in this matter."
Qiu Yue was silent for a while. I heard the lighter pressing. He continued, "I feel much more relieved when I heard you say this. However, I still want to remind you that some things are no longer within the scope you can control. Don't worry about that much anymore. That is a matter of life. You are not a superhero. You must protect your personal safety. Do you understand? Leave the rest to J Party to deal with."
"Well, I know, I will pay attention..." I didn't want our chat to be so heavy, so I changed the topic: "What about you, after you passed by Australia, how are you?"
"It's pretty good. Ye Qing's uncle has done all of our work and handed over. He has been packing things these two days and said he will go back to China first by the next week. By the way, when you talk about this to me, I also remembered that there is something to tell you."
"What's the matter, you said."
Qiu Yue smiled on the other end of the phone and said in a joyful tone: "I discussed with Ye Qing two days ago. She told me that she decided to give up her Australian household registration. When the company's situation stabilizes, she will go back to China with me. As for the company's affairs in Australia, we will just hire a professional manager to take care of it. Anyway, the company is not short of this little money. We can't give up our original household registration just because of a company, right?"
This is indeed a good news, because in my subconscious mind, I don’t want Qiu Yue to give up his household registration and settle in Australia because of these things. Qiu Yue and I are already a friend relationship between me. If he is not in China, I will definitely feel very disappointed.
"Okay, this is a good thing. We are waiting for you to come back in the country."
"Okay, let's stop talking about this first. I have to go and do my job."
After hanging up the phone, I looked at the message I received before answering the phone. It was sent by Ning Bingrou.
Ning Bingrou: "Dongli, Chenyu's brother Xiao Chenfeng, has come from the United States. Now... in the hospital, Chenyu's funeral will be held tomorrow morning. Are you... going to come?"
Looking at the message from Ning Bingrou, I pondered for a while, and then typed and replied: "Well, I will attend."
Although Xiao Chenyu and I had some holidays during his lifetime, some of them seemed less important in life. And I know that Ning Bingrou would definitely attend Xiao Chenyu's funeral, so let's go together.
I really hope that these things can gradually calm down...
