Jiang Yao's grip on the phone was so tight that she almost crushed it.
"What did you say? Kneeling? Why didn't you mention this to me before? "Jiang Yao's whole body was shaking." You didn't mention it before. "
Jiang Yao broke down. She thought that Zhou Xiaoxia's family had just been killed, that they had died with their throats slit. She didn't know that Zhou Xiaoxia's family had died in such a humiliating way.
Du Chen was shocked, and then he patted his head in annoyance.
Yes, how could he forget that he didn't tell Jiang Yao about Zhou Xiaoxia's family's death because he didn't want to agitate Jiang Yao. But when he heard the news just now, he was so shocked that he forgot about it and directly picked up the phone to call Jiang Yao.
But now that he had said it, it was too late for him to take it back.
"Yes, I deliberately hid it from you before. You weren't in good health at that time, so I didn't dare to tell you. I was afraid of agitating you." Du Chen paused and said, "I'm sorry, I forgot just now. Otherwise …"
"Otherwise, you wouldn't have kept Zhou Xiaocheng's death from me, right?" Jiang Yao asked. Then she hung up the phone without waiting for Du Chen's answer. She looked up at Lu Xingzhi and asked, "You know about it?"
"Know what?" Lu Xingzhi guessed that Du Chen was talking to Jiang Yao about the Zhou family, but he didn't know what Du Chen said to Jiang Yao. Jiang Yao was far away from him when he called, so he couldn't hear what Du Chen said to Jiang Yao on the phone.
"Xiaoxia's family died so tragically." Jiang Yao bit her lip and said, "Even Xiaocheng …"
"I know about Xiaoxia's family." Lu Xingzhi admitted. "I told Du Chen not to let you know. Do you think I can tell you about your situation at that time? As for Zhou Xiaocheng, didn't she pass away a long time ago? "
When Zhou Xiaocheng's body was found missing, Lu Xingzhi had already lost contact with him, so he really didn't know about Zhou Xiaocheng's matter. He had been recuperating these few days, and Zhou Xiaocheng's matter was only discovered by Du Chen and the others, so Lu Xingzhi also didn't receive any news.
Jiang Yao was really upset, but it wasn't because Lu Xingzhi was hiding it from her. It was because of Zhou Xiaoxia and her family.
"Qian Yunen removed Xiao Cheng's body from the grave and poured mud into it. He had Xiao Cheng kneel in front of Chai Xianglong and his mother's grave. When Xiaoxia and her family arrived, they were also kneeling in the direction of Chai Xianglong and his mother's grave."
After Jiang Yao finished speaking, she directly put her face on Lu Xingzhi's bed and said in a muffled voice, "I'm upset. I can't help but want to cry. But I'm afraid you'll be upset if you see me cry. Don't talk to me. Just let me cry like this for a while."
After saying that, Jiang Yao's suppressed sobs came out from between her fingers and the bed. It was low and sobbing.
Even though Lu Xingzhi couldn't see her crying, hearing her suppressed sobs still made his heart ache.
This kind of upset felt like something was stuck in her heart. The sadness she felt when Zhou Xiaoxia's family suddenly passed away suddenly attacked her, and it was a thousand times worse than before.
Lu Xingzhi was really clumsy with words. Other than raising his hand to gently stroke her head, he couldn't find any useful words to comfort her.
He could understand her sadness.
Losing a friend was like losing a comrade.
