Chapter 236 Cheeky

It was cold outside, and the dim yellow lamps in the yard gave off a faint light.

Qi Shiyun just went back to the room to add another dress, and when Gu Shian hurried downstairs, she was already waiting downstairs.She didn't call the driver either, and let Gu Shian drive directly.

Chen Zhengkang had left since the afternoon, so he didn't know where he would be at the moment.

Gu Shi'an started the car, and asked in a low voice, "Should I call first?"

Qi Shiyun seemed a little tired, and said, "No, just go directly." She didn't know what she was thinking, and closed her eyes after speaking.

Gu Shi'an stopped talking, and drove to the side where Chen Zhengkang was staying.

Because of the slippery road, it is still the peak season.Qi Shiyun was in a hurry, checking the time from time to time.It seems restless.

It took almost two hours for the car to stop not far from Chen Zhengkang's residence. Qi Shiyun didn't need Gu Shian to call, so she took out her mobile phone and dialed Chen Zhengkang's number.

She couldn't get through, and Chen Zhengkang's cell phone indicated that it was turned off.She frowned now, and dialed a second time.This time is the same as the previous time, and it is still turned off.

She came over in a hurry, completely unexpected that Chen Zhengkang would not be contacted.She gripped the phone tightly and sat with her eyes closed.

Gu Shi'an didn't know what she was thinking, so he looked at the neighborhood in front of him and asked, "I'll go down and have a look, you just sit in the car."

Qi Shiyun was on edge when she met them, and it was obviously inappropriate for her to go.

Just as she was about to get out of the car, Qi Shiyun said, "No need to go." The corners of her lips curled up in sarcasm, she paused slightly, and then said, "Even if I go, I might not be able to find him."

Her words did not make sense.Gu Shi'an didn't understand what she meant.Qi Shiyun didn't explain, and said after a while: "Let's go, let's go back."

She closed her eyes and stopped talking.

Gu Shi'an looked at the neighborhood again, and restarted the car.

Qi Shiyun didn't speak a word along the way, and when she was about to arrive at the old house to wait for the traffic lights, she suddenly asked, "When is Chen Xiao coming back?"

Gu Shi'an didn't expect that she would suddenly ask about Chen Xiao, he was taken aback for a moment, and then said, "He didn't say anything. It should take a few days."

She thought Qi Shiyun was going to say something, but she didn't say anything.No more talking.

It was past eleven o'clock when I went back to the old house, although the lights were on in the old house.But it was quiet.

The two got out of the car one after the other, Ye Qing was still waiting.And made supper.Qi Shiyun didn't say anything, and went upstairs directly.

Qi Shiyun's hasty going out made Ye Qing a little uneasy, she didn't have time to ask anything at that time, so she asked Gu Shi'an: "What's wrong?"

When Qi Shiyun asked about people coming from time to time in the afternoon, she said that Chen Zhengkang had been here, but who knew that her face suddenly changed after standing for a while.When I asked her what Chen Zhengkang said when he came here, she didn't know.I just said I don't know.Who knew that she went to find Gu Shi'an again.

Gu Shi'an was a little tired, forced a smile, and said, "It's nothing. I don't know too well."

When she said that, Ye Qing didn't suspect anything, Qi Shiyun and Chen Zhengkang would pinch each other when they met.Probably because he came here this time to make her unhappy.

Ye Qing didn't ask any more questions, and told Gu Shi'an to eat and go to rest early.

Qi Shiyun didn't go out these few days, but she woke up early the next day.She didn't say hello to anyone, and went out without breakfast.

Gu Shi'an got up a little later, Ye Qing went to tell her that Qi Shiyun was going out and she hurriedly got up.It was too late when chasing her out, Qi Shiyun had already left.

Before her body recovered, Gu Shi'an immediately took out his mobile phone and called her.

It took Qi Shiyun a while to pick it up.Without waiting for Gu Shi'an to ask her, she said lightly: "Don't worry, I'm going out to meet a friend. I'll be back in the evening."

Her tone was calm.

Gu Shi'an still wanted to ask something, but she had already hung up the phone.

Gu Shi'an was uneasy.But she didn't know where Qi Shiyun was going, so she could only wait for her to come back at night.

Qi Shiyun said she would come back at night, but she came back after three o'clock in the afternoon.Her complexion was not good, Gu Shi'an sat down on the sofa and poured her a cup of hot water, she drank it, and her complexion improved a little.Leaning on the sofa to prop up his brows, he asked after a while, "Is there anyone else here, Chen Xiao?"

There must be something wrong with her asking like that, Gu Shi'an nodded and said, "Yes. I'm going to make a call now."

Qi Shiyun didn't stop her, she acquiesced.

Assistant Sun came over quickly, Gu Shi'an only called him for an hour.He drove over.

He greeted Qi Shiyun politely.Qi Shiyun didn't make any detours, and said directly: "Chen Xiao's father came over yesterday."

Assistant Sun nodded.

Qi Shiyun said again: "His mobile phone has been turned off. I went there today, but he hasn't come out. He doesn't seem to be there now."

She said this and didn't get to the point.

Assistant Sun was very patient and asked, "Do you want to see where he is?"

Qi Shiyun was silent for a while, and said: "He came here yesterday to find Chen Xiao. You should know about his relationship with Chen Xiao. It is impossible for him to come to Chen Xiao for no reason. He should know something It's over." She paused here, and said, "Although he is a real villain, he has always had little courage, and knows what to do and what not to do. He also distinguishes the importance."

Although she and Chen Zhengkang had quarreled for so many years, they had lived together at one time or another.She knew more or less what kind of person Chen Zhengkang was.

When she said that, Assistant Sun didn't understand anything.He immediately stood up and said, "You have a good rest, I'll check now."

As he spoke, he took out his mobile phone and immediately walked outside.

Gu Shi'an also walked outside, and said in a low voice, "I'm with you."

There are very few people that Chen Xiao can use now, so when it comes to finding someone, the more people the better.

Her eyes were firm, and she continued without Assistant Sun speaking: "I promise to obey the arrangement, and I will stay wherever I am asked."

Assistant Sun felt a little helpless, and said, "If Mr. Chen knows..."

"He won't know." Gu Shi'an said without thinking.

Assistant Sun couldn't hold back her, so he could only bring her along.Keep her in the car and don't let her get out of the car.

As Qi Shiyun said, Chen Zhengkang is indeed no longer there.Assistant Sun asked the security guard that Chen Zhengkang hadn't gone back since he went out yesterday.

Chen Zhengkang is usually a tricky rabbit, and he often goes to many places.Assistant Sun made everyone stare at him.He himself is the place where Chen Zhengkang goes most frequently.

But these places where Chen Zhengkang loves to appear, he is not there.

Assistant Sun then called Chen Xiao and told him about the matter.

Gu Shian didn't know what Chen Xiao said, so after hanging up the phone, Assistant Sun said to Gu Shian, "I'll take you back."

It will take a lot of time to go back to the old house here, and now he has to stare at this side, Gu Shi'an will let him send him back.Said: "No, you are busy with your business, don't worry about me."

She was also worried when she went back.It's better to stay here, at least you can know all the news.

Assistant Sun didn't listen to her, and said, "It's getting late, I'd better send you back."

He said and started the car.

Gu Shi'an had no choice but to say: "It's too late to go back, I'll take a taxi to Chang'an."

Assistant Sun was not at ease, and said neither humble nor overbearing: "You call and ask where Miss Chang is, and I will take you there."

He insisted, so Gu Shi'an had no choice but to make a phone call.

Chang Yu was still in the store at the moment, so Assistant Sun sent Gu Shi'an there.

It's not far away, but it's only about twenty minutes away.Assistant Sun has been here a few times, and he didn't leave immediately when he arrived, but said to Chang: "It's too late now, I'm resting everywhere, Miss Chang, don't go back tonight."

It was obviously presumptuous of him to say that.Chang Ji didn't say anything, just nodded and said yes.

Assistant Sun didn't say anything more, but nodded slightly as a greeting, and then drove away.

There is only a small bed in the lounge here, but fortunately, there are simple toiletries.Chang Yan closed the door and asked Gu Shi'an to wash up first, while she went to make a phone call herself.

Gu Shi'an lay down on the bed soon after washing, and it took a while for Chang to come back.She didn't know what she was thinking, she closed her eyes and fell asleep without speaking.

Gu Shi'an was worried about Assistant Sun's side, and couldn't sleep for a long time.When he arrived in Lincheng and was about to fall asleep, he was woken up by the siren.

Chang'an beside him was no longer there, Gu Shi'an was shocked.Immediately sat up.There was only faint light in the room, and after her eyes adjusted, she realized that Chang was standing at the window, looking outside.She immediately got out of bed too.

This side is facing the street, so you can see the outside clearly.The alarm outside kept ringing, she walked to Chang Qian's side and asked, "What's wrong?"

Chang'an looked away, and said lightly, "It should be something from the note."

Below is a roaring police car, this action is obviously not small.

Gu Shi'an looked at Chang Ji, her face was expressionless.It should have nothing to do with her, Gu Shi'an was slightly relieved now.

The police car outside kept ringing, making it impossible to sleep.It wasn't until it was almost dawn that it became quiet.

Both of them fell asleep at dawn.When Gu Shi'an woke up, he was already up.When she went downstairs she was already in the kitchen, making breakfast.

Gu Shi'an wanted to help her but refused to let her help, so she stood aside.

Xiao Wu came early, after eight o'clock.Seeing Chang Yan, he said as if he was alive after a catastrophe: "Last night, I was lucky to go back early." When he said this, he deliberately lowered his voice and said, "I heard that some people were doing illegal transactions last night, and the police arrested a lot of people. Many streets were also blocked. Some people said that there was a conflict, and several ambulances were called. A friend of mine happened to be playing there. I heard that he was stabbed when the riot broke out, and he is still alive Live in the hospital."

He looks like a gossip.

Chang Li glanced at him and said, "You know it pretty well."

Xiao Wu chuckled and said: "I heard it all. But it should be true. I came here this morning and the place is still a mess. The cleaners are cleaning it. There are bloodstains on the ground. The higher-ups are also in charge. Alright, otherwise I don't know how messy it is."

Lincheng has always been chaotic, but the chaos is underground.

He said here and then said: "I heard that it is the handwriting of the newly appointed mayor. The previous one has always turned a blind eye. This one has made achievements as soon as he took office, and his future is limitless."

He made it sound like he was one of them.He shook his head and went to do things while talking.

Although there were police cars ringing all the time last night, Gu Shi'an didn't expect that there would be such a big commotion.She suddenly remembered Assistant Sun's advice from last night.

Assistant Sun told them not to go back, so he should have known it.

Since he knew it, Chang Yi must have known it too.Gu Shi'an asked in a low voice, "What happened last night?"

Chang Li didn't hide it from her, and said lightly: "I believe there are three fires between three people, and someone hit the muzzle of the gun."

She said it simply.After a pause, he continued: "The places last night were all under Xiao Si's subordinates. He should be targeted by the new one."

Xiao Si was being targeted by this man, and his life was difficult.It must be restrained.

Gu Shi'an's heart did not feel relaxed, but rather heavy.

This morning Gu Shi'an was full of thoughts, but fortunately there were not many people at noon and they were not busy.

It was already one o'clock in the noon when Chen Xiao came over. Xiao Wu had an impression of him after he had been here a few times.He politely called Mr. Chen.

Gu Shi'an raised his head when he heard Chen Xiao's answer.She didn't expect that he would come back so early, she stood up and said, "He's back."

Chen Xiao nodded and asked, "Have you eaten?"

Gu Shi'an nodded and said that he ate it.

Chen Xiao came to take her back to the old house, and didn't stay here much.Return to the old house soon.

The driver drove the car, and he seemed a little tired.When I got in the car, I closed my eyes and fell asleep.

There was no news from Chen Zhengkang. Gu Shi'an originally wanted to ask, but he kept his eyes closed and kept silent.

The old house was quiet, Qi Shiyun probably knew that Chen Xiao was back.Not in the house, but sitting in the living room.

Gu Shi'an didn't change his clothes in Chang'an yesterday, so when he entered the living room, Chen Xiao said to her, "Go and change your clothes before coming down."

Obviously he and Qi Shiyun had something to say.Gu Shi'an said hello, and quickly went upstairs.

Chen Xiao didn't know what he had said to Qi Shiyun, but he came upstairs within ten minutes.He was tired, so he went directly to the bathroom to take a shower.

Gu Shi'an didn't go downstairs either, just stayed in the bedroom.After waiting for Chen Xiao to come out, she asked, "Dad...do you have any clues over there?"

Chen Xiao obviously already knew about the fact that she had been following Assistant Sun yesterday.He rubbed his hair and said, "I'm investigating, and there shouldn't be any clues in a long time."

He didn't go downstairs again, dried his hair and lay down on the bed.Said to Gu Shi'an: "Come here and take a nap."

Gu Shi'an couldn't fall asleep, so he said, "I'm not sleepy. I'm going to help Aunt Ye with something."

But Chen Xiao didn't let her go, raised a pair of narrow eyes to look at her, beckoned, and said, "Come here."

Gu Shi'an had no choice but to pass.

As soon as she lay down on the bed, Chen Xiao gently stroked her stomach with his hand, and asked softly, "Did he trouble you?"

Gu Shi'an was a little awkward, and said: "I'm still young, I don't know how to make trouble. I won't move until a few months later."

Chen Xiao closed his eyes and hummed.But he never took his hand off Gu Shian's stomach, just kept it there.

Gu Shi'an didn't dare to move, and after a while, he asked, "Is everything done?"

She waited for Chen Xiao to answer, but she didn't hear him for a long time.It was only when I looked at it that I realized that he had just fallen asleep like that.

He was in a deep sleep, and his brows were slightly relaxed.

Gu Shi'an lay there for such a long time without moving, and it took half an hour before he gently took Chen Xiao's hand away.Get up lightly.

Chen Xiao on the bed did not notice her leaving, and was still sound asleep.

Gu Shi'an was going to go downstairs, but remembering Chen Xiao's changed clothes, he went to the bathroom again.

The clothes were thrown on the ground in a mess, so she picked them up one by one and put them in the clothes basket.When I went to pick up the white shirt, I saw another dark red stain on the cuff.Although it was small, it could still be seen as a bloodstain.

Gu Shi'an's movements froze, and he stood for a while before putting away the shirt.

Chen Xiao was wearing a bathrobe, which was spacious and his arms were exposed.Gu Shi'an checked that both arms were not injured, and he was relieved.

Since he was not injured, the blood stain on the shirt belonged to someone else.

Gu Shi'an stood in front of the bed for a while in a daze, then gently opened the door and went downstairs.

It was already evening when Chen Xiao woke up.When Gu Shi'an went upstairs to see him, he was on the phone at the window.He turned around when he heard footsteps, said a few words to the phone and hung up.

After sleeping, his complexion is much better.Gu Shi'an said now: "Aunt Ye asked me to come up and ask you to eat."

Chen Xiao nodded his head and went downstairs with her.

When he came back, the dinner was naturally rich, and even Qi Shiyun, who had been silent all this time, said a few words.It's just that no one mentioned the matter of Chen Zhengkang.

Qi Shiyun went upstairs soon after eating, and Chen Xiao asked Gu Shi'an: "Do you want to go for a walk?"

It's too early to go to bed now.It is also not good to stay in the house for a long time.Although there is piled snow outside, it is not cold.It's quite suitable for going out.

Gu Shi'an thought he was going to go out, he was taken aback for a moment, and asked, "Aren't you going out?"

Chen Xiao nodded his head now, and said lightly, "It's almost done."

As he spoke, he picked up Gu Shian's overcoat and said, "Let's go, go out to refresh yourself."

Because of the snow, the light outside is bright.Chen Xiao took Gu Shi'an outside and walked slowly along the road.

Although it is winter, it is well taken care of.The old house is not in depression everywhere.The clumps of unknown trees planted are lush green.

Probably because he was afraid that the ground would slip and Gu Shian would fall, Chen Xiao held her hand when he was outside.Put it in your pocket.His palm was warm and dry, and Gu Shian held his fingers tightly.

Afraid of catching a cold, the two of them didn't stay outside for long.In about twenty minutes, he returned to the old house.

Ye Qing was already asleep, but he knew that the two of them hadn't come back yet and left a light for them.Especially warm on cold winter nights.

At this moment, Gu Shi'an suddenly thought of the old lady again.

When the old lady is around, the old house is more lively.But now, even if all of them are back, they are still deserted.There is no lively atmosphere at all.

Chen Xiao said that everything had been taken care of, but when it was time to go to bed, he suddenly received a call from Assistant Sun.

He didn't answer the phone in front of Gu Shi'an, he opened the door with his phone and went out.He didn't come back until Gu Shi'an washed up and lay down on the bed.

Chen Xiao came back after answering the phone for about twenty minutes. He entered the bedroom, stretched out his hand to pull the quilt for Gu Shi'an, and said, "Sleep well, I have to go out."

Gu Shi'an was not surprised, nodded and said, "Be careful."

Probably because she didn't expect her to say such a word, Chen Xiao was silent for a moment, then nodded in good faith.

He thoughtfully turned off the light and closed the door for Gu Shi'an before leaving.Not long after, the sound of a car engine sounded in the yard.

Gu Shi'an couldn't fall asleep, so he forced himself to close his eyes in the dark.

She originally thought that Chen Xiao would never come back, but he still came back in the middle of the night.Gu Shi'an woke up the moment he went to bed.

She didn't move, just snuggled into his arms as he put his arms around her.

Chen Xiao stretched out his hand and patted her lightly, resting his chin on her head.Smell her hair.

He was addicted to cigarettes back then, but tonight he didn't smell like cigarettes.It still smells fresh after shower.There was no bloody smell either.

There was news from Chen Zhengkang the next day that he had gone on a trip.But he probably didn't take the plane or train, and didn't find out the ticket purchase information.It's just that his phone is still off.

I don't know if he went out to greet Chen Xun's mother and son, but there has been no movement there.

Chen Xun came to the old house on the fourth day of Chen Zhengkang's trip, and his visit was still quite grand.He probably came here just in time, and Chen Xiao happened to be there when he came.

He still had a gentle and gentle look, he greeted Qi Shiyun and Ye Qing first when he entered the door.

The expression on Qi Shiyun's face was faint, she got up and went back to the house.He didn't care, and sat down on the sofa without being greeted.Looking around for a while, he smiled slightly and said, "It doesn't change much when grandma left here."

Chen Xiao's gaze sank slightly, he glanced at him lightly, and said, "What's the matter?"

Chen Xun smiled slightly and said, "Brother, you don't seem to welcome me?"
