Chapter 136
Inside the small black room, she was cold and stiff. She stopped knocking on the door and slowly sat down along the door.Someone in the small dark room lost a knife, she picked it up with stiff hands, and slashed down on her wrist.

The blood flowed down her wrist quickly, and she could even hear the sound of the dripping on the ground.Strange thing, she didn't feel any pain, but a sense of relief.

Probably because the blood in her body was draining little by little, her breathing became short of breath.The pressure in her chest seemed to explode, and she fell into a pool of blood.She tried to struggle to get up, but couldn't get up.As if being bound by something.

She sat up in bed immediately.

The room was still pitch black, Gu Shi'an slowed down a little, and only after his eyes got used to the darkness did he realize that he was still in the police station.

Her body was weak, and after a while, she stretched out her hand to wipe the dense sweat from her forehead.

The dream was so clear that she seemed to be able to hear it even now.Gu Su's childish sharp voice was full of viciousness.

Gu Shi'an supported his forehead and closed his eyes tightly.

It was probably because it was more fragile to be alone, so it took her a while to change and lay on the bed again.

She couldn't fall asleep again this time, so she just lay quietly with her eyes closed.

Gu Shi'an originally thought that it would take him a long time to get out.Who knew that she would be released the next afternoon.

Qin Tang was there besides the lawyer when he went out, probably seeing that Gu Shian's expression was not very good, he said in a low voice: "It's all right."

He said he would keep a lawyer to deal with the aftermath, while he took Gu Shi'an out of the police station.

They came so fast that Gu Shi'an didn't know what was going on outside.After hesitating for a while in the car, he asked, "Did you catch the person who set the fire?"

Qin Tang replied immediately: "No. The lawyer has evidence of the man's perjury."

Since it was perjury, it proved that someone wanted to frame Gu Shian.This case has become much more complicated than before.However, she is no longer the only suspect.

Gu Shian nodded.Qin Tang seemed to know what she wanted to ask, and continued: "Her son is a gambler and owes a lot of money to a casino. That amount of money is an astronomical figure for their family, but a few days ago God, the money was returned. Now the aunt has admitted that she took money from others and gave false testimony for others. In fact, she didn't see anything. She was cleaning the corridor when the fire broke out that day, until the alarm sounded She just ran out."

This progress was too fast, and Gu Shi'an felt a little strange in his heart.But he couldn't tell what was so strange, so he nodded.

Qin Tang didn't say anything more, and signaled the driver to drive.

Gu Shi'an didn't plan to go to Qin Tang's apartment again, so he said, "Just send me back to the old house."

Qin Tang paused for a moment, but did not speak.

Instead, the driver in front glanced at Gu Shi'an from the rearview mirror, smiled slightly and said, "Miss Gu, today is Mr. Qin's birthday."

Gu Shi'an was stunned, and after a few seconds, he said, "Then I have to prepare a birthday present for you."

Her tone was extremely serious.

Qin Tang nodded and said, "You can make a birthday cake." After a pause, he added, "I have an oven over there."

Said it was a birthday present, but Gu Shi'an didn't think about what to give at all.Qin Tang lacked everything, and at this moment, she couldn't prepare any special gifts.

She simply went down the steps of Qin Tang and said hello.Said: "I will make you a cake today, and I will make up for your birthday present later."

Qin Tang was blunt and said hello.

Although Qin Tang asked her to make a birthday cake, it was just a temporary idea.There are no ingredients for cakes at home.After Gu Shi'an asked, he asked Xian to go to the supermarket to prepare ingredients.

Qin Tang asked the driver to go to a nearby supermarket.

He has a lot of things to do, and he waited until the car stopped in the parking lot of the supermarket.His cell phone rang.He didn't know what the person on the phone said, so he frowned and didn't speak.

There must be something wrong with him like this.Gu Shi'an said softly: "If you have something to do, go and do it. I'll just go and buy it myself."

Qin Tang frowned again, said something and hung up the phone.

He had to go back to the company, and told Gu Shi'an to wait for the driver to come back here after shopping.Gu Shi'an nodded and let him go about his work and leave her alone.

Qin Tang left quickly, Gu Shi'an stood there for a while, and then walked along the entrance to the supermarket.

Probably because she just came out of it, she was a little uncomfortable with the bright and dazzling lights in the supermarket.My head was a little dizzy, and it took me a while to get used to it, and I pushed the cart and walked inside.

Naturally, Qin Tang's birthday couldn't be as simple as making a birthday cake.She bought a lot of vegetables in the supermarket, and then bought ingredients for cakes.

The driver did not come back after shopping.After all, it is not appropriate to make up for birthday presents. She stored the things in the supermarket, and then went to a shopping mall not far away.

She hadn't made a birthday cake in ages and had no idea if she could do it well.While walking, I called Chang Yu and asked her about cake making skills.

What Chang Li said was detailed, Gu Shian went through it in his mind and wrote it down one by one.It wasn't until they entered the mall that they hung up the phone.

She didn't think about what gift to give for a moment, and looked around as soon as she entered the mall.When she turned her head to look to the left, she saw Chen Xiao standing beside her and looking at her.

I don't know how long he stood there, his eyes were cold.

Gu Shi'an did not expect to meet him here at all, so he was taken aback for a moment.Chen Xiao over there acted as if he didn't know her at all, and walked straight past her to her side.

When Gu Shian came back to his senses, he had already gone so far.She didn't care about him either, and looked at the birthday present for Qin Tang in the mall.

She has no experience in choosing gifts at all, and she stops and stops all the way, not knowing what to buy.

The shopping guide lady here is very enthusiastic. Hearing that it was a birthday present, she immediately recommended wallets, ties, watches and other things to Gu Shi'an.

Gu Shi'an pondered for a while, and finally decided to give a watch.

There are many kinds of watch prices, and the shopping guide lady is very patient, recommending each one for Gu Shian.After recommending two or three models, she suddenly stopped.

Gu Shi'an was listening carefully, he was puzzled when he saw her stop.He looked up at her.

The shopping guide lady has already looked away, feeling a little uncomfortable, and said in a low voice: "There is a gentleman over there who has been watching you."

Gu Shi'an turned his head and looked over.

At the moment she looked over, Chen Xiao had already casually walked over here.He didn't say what he wanted, just walked around.He didn't say hello to Gu Shi'an either, as if he didn't know her at all.

The shopping guide lady originally thought that the two knew each other, but now she was puzzled.However, he quickly put away his curiosity and continued to introduce watches to Gu Shi'an.

For some reason, Gu Shi'an always felt that Chen Xiao was looking at him.But every time he raised his head, Chen Xiao didn't look this way.However, as soon as she lowered her head to choose, she felt like a light was on her back, and she was extremely uncomfortable.

She tried her best not to care about that feeling, and began to choose carefully.Because of the price, she picked out two suitable ones.

In contrast, I saw the shopping guide lady looking at her side.

Gu Shi'an raised his head unconsciously, and looked sideways.

Chen Xiao didn't know when he came to stand beside her.His gaze was cold, and he didn't care about the shopping guide behind him.Just staring at Gu Shi'an.

Just like that, even an outsider could sense something was wrong.The shopping guide lady who recommended watches looked at Gu Shi'an.

Gu Shi'an didn't speak, he lowered his head and looked at the two watches.

Chen Xiao didn't leave, but stood aside.That cold gaze moved to the watch placed in front of Gu Shian.

Gu Shi'an ignored him, but made a quick decision, pushed one of the watches in front of the shopping guide lady, and said, "Wrap this up for me."

The shopping guide lady answered yes, tried her best to ignore Chen Xiao's gaze, and said with a smile, "This is a birthday present, can I change the packaging for you? Don't worry, there is no charge..."

Before she finished speaking, Chen Xiao, who had been standing still, took a step forward.He took the watch from her face and said, "I want this watch."

The shopping guide was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said, "Okay, I'll pack it for you right away."

Naturally, she would be happy to see such a business deal.

But just after she finished speaking, Chen Xiao said flatly: "I want all the stocks of this model, including this one."

He tapped his finger on the watch box as he said.There was no expression on that handsome face.

The smile on the face of the shopping guide froze, and she said, "This lady ordered this watch."

Chen Xiao didn't even look at Gu Shi'an, and said, "Now I want it."

He was obviously doing this on purpose.Gu Shi'an couldn't help clenching his teeth, and looked up at him.

Chen Xiao seemed unaware of her gaze, took out a card from his wallet and threw it on the counter, and said, "Haven't you paid for it yet?"

Although Gu Shi'an said that he wanted it first, the difference between the amount of this piece and the amount that Chen Xiao wanted was huge.The shopping guide lady quickly picked up the card and handed it to the people around her to sign for it, then looked at Gu Shi'an with a smile on her face, and said, "Look..."

Naturally, Gu Shi'an couldn't compare to Chen Xiao's wealth and wealth, so he held back his anger.Pointing to another watch, he said, "Wrap this one for me."

As soon as she finished speaking, the shopping guide lady hadn't spoken yet, and Chen Xiao said calmly from the side: "I want all of this one too."

Anyone would be happy to meet such a big customer, but under such circumstances, the shopping guide lady was embarrassed, and looked at Gu Shi'an with an embarrassed expression.

Gu Shi'an naturally realized that in this mall today, she couldn't buy anything she wanted.Now she said no, she didn't stay any longer, and went outside directly.

As soon as she left, Chen Xiao followed her lingeringly.

Gu Shi'an was a little annoyed. When she left the shopping mall, she stopped and looked back at Chen Xiao, and said angrily, "What do you want to do?"

Chen Xiao had no expression on his face, and said, "I remember this is a public place. I'm going my way, does it have anything to do with you?"

These words made Gu Shian choke.She stopped talking and walked towards the supermarket.

Wherever she goes, Chen Xiao behind will go there.With the lesson she learned just now, she stopped talking and didn't even turn her head.

The gift was no longer available today, so she simply stopped buying it.Go back to the supermarket and wait for the driver.

Chen Xiao also followed to the supermarket. When she stopped, he also stopped, just standing aside coldly.

Qin Tang's driver came back after a while, and Gu Shi'an picked up his things and got into the car.Originally thought that Chen Xiao would not follow anymore.Who knew that the car had driven so far. When she looked back, she realized that his car had been following behind her all the time.

She simply closed her eyes now and ignored it.

The car drove into the parking lot of the apartment where Qin Tang lived, and vehicles outside were not allowed to enter.Chen Xiao couldn't follow in, so the car stopped outside.

The car stopped in the parking lot. Seeing that there was no car behind, Gu Shi'an breathed a sigh of relief, and went upstairs with his things.

Qin Tang was not there, and the driver took Gu Shian upstairs directly.After carrying the things in and putting them down, the driver said that Qin Tang would be back soon, so he went downstairs.

Because of Chen Xiao, Gu Shi'an's mood fluctuated somewhat.Taking a deep breath to calm himself down, he took out all the ingredients needed to make the cake.

Because the gift couldn't be bought, she did it seriously.In addition to doing what I often teach, I also checked some tips on the Internet.

She was relieved when the cake was put in the oven.

She couldn't rest, and continued to cook again.

When Qin Tang came back, Gu Shi'an was almost done. Hearing the sound of the door opening, she got out of the kitchen and said to Qin Tang, "Go and change your clothes first, and you'll be fine in a while."

Qin Tang nodded and said hello.Then I went to wash my hands before entering the bedroom.

Gu Shi'an's movements were quick, and when he came out again, she had already arranged the cake and put the candles on the table.The light in the living room was turned off, Qin Tang was slightly taken aback.It went over quickly.

Gu Shi'an said happy birthday to him and asked him to make a wish.He didn't believe this at all, and blew out the candles directly.

Although he doesn't like sweets, he ate a small piece of the cake.There were plenty of dishes on the table, Qin Tang got up to get a bottle of red wine.

The restaurant here is warm, but Chen Xiao's car has been parked outside the community. He sat in the car and didn't even move.

His cell phone rang from time to time, but he didn't even look at it.After so long, the phone rang again, so he picked it up.

He didn't know what was said on the other end of the phone, but he didn't care, and hung up the phone directly.

Because it was Qin Tang's birthday, Gu Shi'an didn't mention going home.After eating, she went to wash up, and then played chess with Qin Tang.

She didn't return to the guest room until after twelve o'clock.

I don't know if it was because she dreamed about the small black room that night or because she stayed in that cramped room for a long time, but when she closed her eyes, she had a nightmare again.

She didn't know why she kept dreaming about the past, and she was more or less uneasy.After a while, he forced himself to close his eyes again.

When Gu Shi'an got up the next day, Qin Tang had already arranged breakfast, and he was probably afraid that she would think wildly when she was alone, so he asked her what she planned to do.I also asked about the results of the interview some time ago.

Before the matter was settled, Gu Shi'an had no plans to go to work.Then he told Qin Tang the words over there.He also talked about Chang's plan to open a restaurant.

Qin Tang nodded without saying anything, and asked Gu Shi'an to call him if he needed help.

Qin Tang had to go to work after breakfast, and Gu Shi'an originally wanted to leave by car.In the end, it was sent by Qin Tang.

When the car exited the entrance of the community, she saw Chen Xiao's car at a glance.

She was slightly startled now.Looking at it like that, it should have been here yesterday.

Gu Shi'an quickly came to his senses and didn't look at it again.

I stayed in it all day, and I didn't rest well last night.She was tired, and instead of going to the store, she went back to the old house.

Having nightmares again and again made her feel a little uneasy. When she got home, she stood by the door for a while, went in and changed her clothes, and then went to her parents' cemetery.

She came here often at the cemetery. She put the flowers she bought and the snacks her parents liked during her lifetime in front of the tombstone, and stretched out her hand inch by inch to caress her parents whose eyebrows and eyes were still young in the photo.

She felt much more at ease here than at home. She wiped the tombstone, and finally rested her head on the tombstone, leaning tightly against the group photo of her parents.

She stayed in front of the tombstone until the afternoon before going down the mountain.

Sitting in a taxi, she didn't know where she was going.Having nightmares again and again, she was worried about the old lady, and finally went directly to the old house of the Gu family.

She originally thought that the old lady was there, but she didn't know until she got to the old house.The old lady is not here, she has been living in a villa in the suburbs for a week.

The old lady was not there, nor was Gu Su's family.Only my aunt is in the house, and it is deserted.

Gu Shi'an was stunned for a moment, and asked the aunt and old lady why she suddenly went to live in the villa.The aunt couldn't tell, she just said that the old lady said the air on the mountain was good.So going to live for a while.

The old lady has never left the old house in these years, so there must be something wrong with going to the villa all of a sudden.Gu Shi'an felt even more uneasy, so he stopped asking the aunt, took a taxi and went straight to the villa.

When she was on the road, she originally wanted to hit the old lady, but in the end she refrained from hitting her.

There was a traffic jam on the road, and the car was not driving fast all the way.Gu Shi'an looked at the time from time to time all the way, wishing he could fly over with his wings.

The car drove for more than an hour before arriving at the villa.Gu Shi'an got out of the car and paid the money without even asking the driver to look for it, so he hurried to the villa.

The gate of the villa was closed, and she herself rarely came here, so she rang the doorbell without the key here.

It didn't take long for someone to come out from inside, but the person who came out was neither the aunt nor the driver, but Chen Xiao.

Gu Shi'an was undoubtedly more surprised to see him than to meet him in the mall. She didn't ask until he approached, "Why are you here?"

However, Chen Xiao didn't answer her. After opening the door for her, he turned around and went back to the villa.

Gu Shi'an's heart was tickled, and he quickly followed him and asked another question.

Only then did Chen Xiao turn to look at her, and the corners of his mouth curled up in a bit of sarcasm, and asked, "Who stipulated that I can't come here?"

Yes, just like in the mall.Where he is is his freedom.

Gu Shi'an choked, afraid that the old lady inside would find out that something was wrong, so he didn't speak any more.

Inside, the aunt was already preparing the meal, and the old lady was surprised to see Gu Shian.He asked, "Why are you here?"

With her appearance like this, she should have told Chen Xiao to hide it from her.Otherwise, it is impossible to be surprised to see her.

A smile appeared on Gu Shi'an's face, and he said, "I went to the old house, and my aunt said you were here, so I came directly."

The old lady didn't explain anything, put away the surprise on her face, and said with a smile: "You came just in time, we are going to eat. Go wash your hands and come over to eat."

Gu Shi'an said yes, and walked towards the bathroom under the guidance of his aunt.

When she came back after washing her hands, the old lady and Chen Xiao were already sitting at the dining table.

As soon as she went out, the old lady let her go, and said with a smile: "Auntie happened to make your favorite sweet and sour short ribs today. Eat more."

She never mentioned why she came here, and Gu Shi'an didn't ask, he smiled and said yes, and sat down.

Gu Shi'an and Chen Xiao didn't communicate at all during the meal, the old lady naturally sensed something was wrong, sighed softly, and said to Gu Shi'an: "Don't blame Chen Xiao, I let him Don't tell you."

Gu Shi'an didn't speak, just lowered his head.

The old lady sighed again, and said, "Grandma stayed here for a few days before going back, so I didn't tell you."

Where could Gu Shi'an be angry with her old man, so he nodded.

The old lady wanted to say something, but in the end she said nothing.I started eating.

Gu Shi'an originally thought that Chen Xiao was going to stay here overnight.Who knew but didn't, he got up and left after eating.He didn't show anything unusual, saying that he would come back another day, and smiled and asked Gu Shi'an to stay here with the old lady for a few more days.

The old lady probably thought he was busy and didn't keep him.Just told him to be careful when driving on the road.Then let Gu Shi'an go out to see off Chen Xiao.

Now Chen Xiao found an excuse that it was cold outside because of the heavy dew in the middle of the night, and directly refused, saying no.
