Mengyao felt aggrieved and said, "That's not what I meant. I just think you should stand by my side and help me when eating."

Jiaxi said impatiently: "Okay, now that I know, no matter what my mother wants you to eat, I will help stop it."

"You still don't understand what I mean..."

At this time, there was a knock on the door. Mengyao could not continue and asked, "Who is it?"

"Jiaxi, Mengyao, are you all in the room?"

They heard the voice of Jiaxi's mother.

Mengyao could only reply, "Yes."

Jiaxi's mother didn't ask if she could come in, and just opened the door and walked into their room. Seeing that they both looked bad, as if they were quarreling, she couldn't help but said a little embarrassed: "You guys are talking in the room.

.”

"Mom, what's the matter with you?" Jiaxi asked unhappily.

Jiaxi's mother hesitated for a moment and said, "It's okay. I just want to remind you that this child is not yet three months old. You'd better not stay in the same room."

Mengyao understood that Jiaxi's mother had good intentions, but she felt strange and awkward that she came to remind them like this.

How should I put it, it's like my private life is being watched and monitored all the time.

Jiaxi also felt annoyed and said, "Mom, I understand. We are just talking together, so don't worry about it."

Jiaxi's mother still said uneasily: "Don't you have anything to say? Just sit in the living room and say it. You want me to prepare some sweet soup for you."

Mengyao couldn't bear it anymore, so she pushed Jiaxi directly and said, "You go and drink the sweet soup. I'm very full and want to sleep."

Jiaxi was even more unhappy after being pushed like this by her, and didn't want to stay with her anymore. He pulled his mother out and said, "Mom, I can't drink the sweet soup anymore. I'm going back to the guest room to rest."

Jiaxi's mother watched him return to the guest room and felt relieved, fearing that the young man's impulsiveness would hurt the child in his belly.

Jiaxi returned to the guest room and closed the door, sulking alone.

Because his mother cared too much about the fetus in Mengyao's belly, she interfered a little with them. But Mengyao was also a big lady, but she just didn't follow her at all. She kept complaining and just pushed him out.

Mengyao never really cared about him or respected him, which made him feel very uncomfortable.

He couldn't help but think of Lili's well-behaved and sensible nature, who was obedient to him and treated him like a god. Compared to Mengyao, he was more like a man in front of Lili.

Mengyao was alone in the room and couldn't sleep at all. She didn't know what was wrong with her, but she just hoped that Jiaxi could understand her mood. She seemed to be losing her temper when talking hurriedly.

She originally thought that Jiaxi would sneak over to coax her later in the evening, but Jiaxi never came to her room again until late at night.

The next morning, Jiaxi's attitude was indifferent when he sent her to work, as if he had nothing to say to her.

She didn't want to say anything more, and the two of them were silent the whole way.

Jiaxi sent her to the door of the unit. As soon as she got out of the car, Jiaxi drove away immediately.

She felt a chill in her heart. She didn't expect that she had only complained to him about his mother a few times last night, but he would treat her with such a cold attitude.

When Mengyao saw a colleague greeting her again, she could only put away her disappointment and sadness.

…

In the morning, Tianyi was busy in the office and received a call from Kang Xi.

"Mr. Qin, I'm back in Lancheng. Are you free to come out and sit down at noon?"

Tianyi realized that Kang Xi had found some useful clues this time and said, "Okay, that was at the restaurant near your police station last time."

"See you at noon." After Kang Xi hung up the phone, he continued to check the information and whereabouts of the friends who went to celebrate the meal with the second brother Wu Xiufang. As expected, he found the same information as when the elder brother Wu Xiufang had an accident at the beach.

question.

He wanted to wait until he met Tianyi before conducting a detailed investigation on these people.

At lunch time, Tianyi came to the restaurant but no one from Kang Xi was there.

He stayed at his original position and waited for a while before Kang Xi hurried over.

"Mr. Qin, I'm sorry, I just lost track of time when I was looking at the information. Have you been waiting for a long time?"

Tianyi said: "Fortunately, I've only been here for a while and I've already ordered two business meals."

"Okay." Kang Xi sat down and took a sip of the lemonade that was poured first.

Tianyi wanted to know the circumstances of his investigation and asked: "When did you come back and did you find anything?"

"I came back yesterday and found some doubts. It seems that Wu Xiufang's eldest brother did not die in an accident while on vacation at the beach."

"Then tell me what happened at that time?"

Kang Xi said: "There is a boss on that beach who has been doing business for decades. He still remembers the accident. According to him, Brother Wu Xiufang and his gang rented lifebuoys and surfboards from his shop.

And we were playing on the beach not far from him."

"Did he see something?"

Kang Xi nodded and said, "He still clearly remembers that when Wu Xiufang's eldest brother said he couldn't swim, he was holding a lifebuoy tightly in the shallow water on the beach. At this time, the female companion beside him took it away from him as a joke.

lifebuoy, the two figures seemed to be having fun. But a sea

When the wave came, Wu Xiufang's eldest brother was overturned. Her eldest brother was not swept away by the waves immediately. Instead, he struggled in the water and asked the female companion next to him for a lifebuoy, but the woman didn't give it to him and laughed at him.

A timid person is even afraid of the waves, so he throws the lifebuoy far away."

"There must be something wrong with the female companion next to him. She was probably bribed by Wu Xiufang." Tianyi guessed.

Kang Xi continued: "It was another wave that swept Wu Xiufang's eldest brother away. When the boss saw this scene, he rushed to the beach with a survival ring to save her eldest brother, but the speed of the waves was too fast.

Quickly, the person was swept away without a trace. He watched helplessly as he took a big living person and disappeared, so he was deeply impressed by this incident."

Tianyi asked in confusion: "Didn't the boss tell the police about this situation?"

"After the accident, he told the police everything he saw. The female companion who was following Brother Wu Xiufang kept crying and said that she was joking with her brother in the water. He did not expect such an accident to happen. The police did not pursue the case.

Her responsibility was treated as an accident. But the boss still thinks that the woman did it on purpose."

"But this is just the boss's one-sided statement. I'm afraid it's not enough to prove that Brother Wu Xiufang was killed."

Kang Xi said: "Not long after this happened, this woman actually spent a lot of money to immigrate as if she had won the lottery. Over the years, she studied abroad and opened a shop, and she became a well-known female boss in the local Chinese circle.

. But before Brother Wu Xiufang’s accident, she didn’t have the financial resources at all. Where did she get the money to immigrate to study and open a shop?”

Tianyi agreed: "This is indeed very suspicious."
