Shen Qianqian held her parents' photo in her hand and looked at it emotionally. Her voice trembled as she said, "Mom, I found my brother. No matter what he becomes, I will bring him back."
Bai Feng looked at Shen Qianqian, who was heartbroken. He put his arm around her shoulders and let her lean into his arms. "Don't worry. I will find someone to investigate him and where he lives. When we find him, we will think of a solution, okay?"
"Okay, thank you." Shen Qianqian silently got up and wiped her tears. At this time, Xiao Kong suddenly opened the door and came in. Xiao Kong's smile froze on his face when he saw this. He asked worriedly, "Mom, what's wrong?"
"Mom is fine." Shen Qianqian quickly wiped her tears and forced a smile.
Bai Feng couldn't bear to see her forcing a smile. He immediately waved at Xiao Kong and said, "Xiao Kong, come here. Auntie hasn't taken a good look at you yet."
Xiao Kong walked over hesitantly. Bai Feng glanced at Shen Qianqian, who had turned around, and began to chat with Xiao Kong. "Xiao Kong, what did you do in school?"
"We studied …" Xiao Kong stole glances at Shen Qianqian as he spoke. Then, he saw the photos on the table and guessed something in his heart. However, he was finally relieved.
Xiao Kong talked with Bai Feng for a long time. When he finally saw that Shen Qianqian had calmed down a lot, he immediately called out to her, "Mom, our school has an activity tomorrow. Can you go with me?"
Shen Qianqian felt a little heavy in her head. She could only try to think clearly. "Mom won't go. Let Mother Liu go with you."
Shen Qianqian seemed to be a little tired. Bai Feng immediately pulled Xiao Kong's hand and said, "Your mom seems to be tired. Let's not disturb her rest."
"But …"
Xiao Kong didn't seem to want to give up. He wanted to say something but was interrupted by Shen Qianqian. "Xiao Kong, let's talk about it tomorrow. Mom is tired. I want to rest."
"…" Xiao Kong glanced at her, feeling wronged and distressed. Finally, he didn't say anything and left with Bai Feng.
In the living room, Bai Feng, who was about to leave, squatted in front of Xiao Kong. She touched his little face and said, "Xiao Kong, your mother is now a public figure. How can she participate in the school's public activities with you? Your mother tried so hard to protect and hide you. Wouldn't her efforts be in vain?"
Bai Feng's words reminded Xiao Kong.
Indeed, he had only wanted his mother to have more contact with Gu Hecheng, but he had forgotten about this matter.
Seeing that Xiao Kong didn't say anything, Bai Feng finally left with peace of mind.
After Bai Feng went back, he sent someone to investigate Shen Yuntao. However, he didn't know that Shen Yuntao had already left his house with a big bag in the middle of the night.
In the dark, Shen Yuntao sat in a taxi passing through the tunnel. The yellow light shone on his side profile as he looked out of the window. He was as charming as the protagonist's disappointed face in a movie.
The car drove out of the tunnel. The street lights were dim. In the dark, Shen Yuntao's eyes began to moisten. His hands were clenched tightly.
The next morning, Xiao Kong and Mother Liu went out together. Shen Qianqian was still sleeping in bed.
When the sun was high up in the sky, Shen Qianqian finally opened her eyes slowly. However, she didn't get up. She just looked up at the ceiling in a daze.
Shen Qianqian was stunned for a long time. She reached out her hand and fumbled around the bedside for a while before picking up her phone.
In the activity hall of Besi International Bilingual School, Gu Hecheng stood outside the door with disappointment. He thought that Xiao Kong would come with Shen Qianqian today. He didn't expect Mother Liu to come.
Gu Hecheng thought about what Xiao Kong said. He was worried about Shen Qianqian. He didn't know why she was crying. Therefore, when he was thinking about what to call her, Shen Qianqian called.
"…" However, before Gu Hecheng could say anything, his expression changed because of Shen Qianqian's words. His smile froze on his face.
"Did you cause my parents' car accident?" Shen Qianqian looked at the ceiling. She didn't know why, but she felt empty and powerless. "You said that you would give me an explanation, but now there isn't even a letter."
"Don't tell me that Yijia did it. Even if he killed me, I wouldn't believe it. He wasn't even in the country during that time. Could it be that he could really monitor it from afar?"
Shen Qianqian slowly got up and smoothed her long hair.
Gu Hecheng looked at the phone with a slight force. After a while, he finally said, "It wasn't me. I've investigated it. I also believe that He Yijia didn't do it. However, it's still under investigation."
"Qianqian, don't worry. I already have a clue, but the person who did it has already run away. It may take some time to find him."
"You …" Gu Hecheng listened to the silence on the other side of the phone for a long time. He asked worriedly, "Are you okay?"
However, just as he finished speaking, he heard the busy tone from the phone. Shen Qianqian had actually hung up on him.
"Hello?" Gu Hecheng was speechless. He picked up the phone and looked at it. Then, he angrily hung up the phone.
Gu Hecheng was just about to turn around and go back in when he thought about it. He found another number on his phone and dialed it. He raised his voice and said angrily, "What the hell are you doing? It's been so long, but you still haven't found him. I'll give you a month. Find him immediately. "
"Also, I've already contacted people over there. You can go over and ask them for the information directly." Gu Hecheng gritted his teeth and said in a commanding tone, "If you still can't find him after a month, be prepared."
Gu Hecheng hung up the phone. He actually had a faint doubt in his heart. "If He Yijia and I didn't do it, who would be so cruel as to target Shen Qianqian?"
On the quiet tree-lined road, Shen Qianqian put on a jacket and walked quietly with He Yijia.
Their shoes stepped on the fallen sycamore leaves, making the leaves squeak.
He Yijia, who had just returned from a business trip, immediately drove over to see her when he heard Bai Feng talk about Shen Qianqian and Shen Yuntao last night.
After walking for a while, He Yijia stopped and looked at Shen Qianqian, who was beside him. "I haven't seen you for a few days. Why have you lost so much weight?"
He Yijia looked at her sympathetically. Shen Qianqian smiled and said, "It's okay. I'm fine."
He Yijia held her shoulders and frowned unhappily. "How is it okay?"
"We grew up together. I recognize your brother. The next time you go see him, I'll go with you. I don't believe that he will be so cruel as to deny it."
He Yijia's words warmed Shen Qianqian no matter what. She smiled and said to him, "It's okay. If he really doesn't want to admit it, it's useless to say anything. Even if you go, it won't change anything."
Shen Qianqian sighed softly. She turned around and said to him, "I think that if I know why he became like this, he might be able to let go of his misgivings and acknowledge me."
"But what is it that made him so cruel that he would rather deny it than say anything?" Shen Qianqian turned her head and walked forward thoughtfully.
He Yijia frowned. Actually, he couldn't figure it out either. He paused for a moment before he caught up with Shen Qianqian.
He Yijia and Shen Qianqian hung around outside for a long time. He Yijia only sent her back after lunch.
However, as soon as He Jia's car stopped, he saw an uninvited guest.
"Why is he here?" He Yijia's voice turned cold when he saw Gu Hecheng.
Shen Qianqian followed his gaze and saw Gu Hecheng leaning against the car door. Although she didn't welcome his arrival, she didn't want to see He Yijia and Gu Hecheng argue when she was tired. Hence, she said, "It's nothing. You can go back first, Yijia."
"Qianqian!" He Yijia's voice was filled with displeasure. "Have you started to interact with him again?"
"It's not what you think." Shen Qianqian realized that she didn't need to explain anything to him after she said that. Hence, she frowned and said, "Yijia, I'll say it again. I've always treated you as a friend. Although I don't like Gu Hecheng, it's not a problem for me to see him, right?"
He Yijia realized that he had misspoken. He sighed and said, "Qianqian, that's not what I meant. I'm just worried that you'll get hurt …"
"I know you're worried about me. That's why I'm very grateful to you." Shen Qianqian looked out of the window and opened the car door. "I'm tired today. I'm going back to rest. Yijia, you should go too. I just want to talk to him for a while. Don't worry."
Gu Hecheng saw Shen Qianqian get out of the car, but he didn't move.
He Yijia saw that Shen Qianqian deliberately turned to look at him. He had no choice but to drive away.
When Gu Hecheng saw that He Yijia had left, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly. He walked over to Shen Qianqian.
"What are you doing here?" Shen Qianqian frowned. Gu Hecheng's heart ached.
Gu Hecheng was stunned. He found an excuse and said, "When I was on the phone just now, I heard that you didn't sound very well. I was a little worried about you, so I came over."
Shen Qianqian's lips twitched. She couldn't help but sneer. "What's there to worry about? Alright, now that you've seen me, you can go back."
Gu Hecheng saw that Shen Qianqian wasn't even going against him. He became even more worried.
"What's wrong with you?" Gu Hecheng grabbed Shen Qianqian, who was about to walk past him. "Do you know how worried I am about you right now?"
