The maritime search and rescue team searched for seven full days but found no trace.
Later, searches were carried out on nearby islands, but with no success.
In the end, the relevant departments determined that Pei Pu had no chance of survival and ended the matter with accidental death.
Although Pei Pu is not a big star, he is still a public figure and is somewhat famous. At that time, this incident was quite a sensation on the Internet and caused a stir for several days.
When Pei Pu was alive, he was rarely on the news and did not have many fans.
After his death, it became popular and became a hot topic for several days.
But there was also a rumor on the Internet at that time that Pei Pu did not accidentally fall into the sea and died, but may have committed suicide by jumping into the sea.
The reason for his suicide, informed sources revealed, was that something went wrong with a big project that Pei Pu had invested in as a sideline. He lost all his wealth and owed a lot of debt.
Because he was afraid of taking responsibility and avoiding debt, he committed suicide by jumping into the sea.
However, there was no actual evidence for this rumor. After being circulated for two days, it disappeared like the news of Pei Pu's death.
After all, there is news on the Internet every day, and netizens are very forgetful.
What's more, Pei Pu was an unknown actor when he was alive.
Over the years, this matter was almost forgotten in the corner and no one mentioned it.
When Jiang Qiaoyue mentioned this, Su Mi remembered that Pei Pu had indeed played a less than stellar supporting role in the movie "The Starting Line of Life".
Jiang Qiaoyue nodded: "Yes, it was Pei Pu who accidentally fell into the sea and died."
Su Mi's breath froze: "...What's the intersection between Pei Pu and Gu Qingruo?"
Jiang Qiaoyue lowered her voice:
"There is no trace of any relationship between the other male actors in this drama and Gu Qingruo, only Pei Pu."
"Pei Pu went to North America for filming in his early years, and the country he went to happened to be the same country in North America where Gu Qingruo is located."
"Gu Qingruo was still a medical student at that time."
"The drama Pei Pu was filming in North America at that time happened to be a drama related to medical treatment, and the crew filmed it in the medical school where Gu Qingruo was working!"
"So, there is every chance that Pei Pu and Gu Qingruo will get to know each other."
Su Mi took a breath.
Gu Qingruo is indeed somewhat involved with one of the actors in this drama.
For a person with an indifferent temperament like her, her heart was up and down while watching "The Starting Line of Life", and she cried and laughed. Sure enough, it was not because of the plot, but because——
An actor in it.
Just listen to Jiang Qiaoyue continue to say:
"Didn't I say before that I would contact my foreign private investigation colleagues to help me investigate Gu Qingruo's affairs? There was also a reply."
"They said they found out that Pei Pu returned to China after his role in North America ended."
"At the same time, Gu Qingruo asked for a period of leave from school, bought a plane ticket, and flew to China."
"The Chinese city that Gu Qingruo visited happened to be the city where Pei Pu's house is located."
"Needless to say, the two of them are definitely tired of being together these days."
"Half a month later, Gu Qingruo flew back to North America."
"Also, when Pei Pu died, Gu Qingruo had already entered the hospital and became a doctor. At that time, she had never taken a day off, but she actually took more than ten days of leave in a row."
"No one knows what she was going for. She only said it was a personal leave. But I think she must have gone to deal with Pei Pu's death, or she was hit hard by Pei Pu's death and went to heal her wounds."
"Mimi, didn't you say before that Gu Qingruo might have a fiancé? I think it's really possible that Pei Pu... is Gu Qingruo's fiancé."
Jiang Qiaoyue's words surrounded Su Mi's ears.
He was silent for a long time.
After a long time, I held the phone tightly:
"I see."
Now she knows that Gu Qingruo's mysterious fiancé is most likely the actor Pei Pu who died five years ago.
But, here's the key...
Could it be that Gu Qingruo destroyed her relationship with Huo Shenxiu because of the death of her fiancé?
But what does Pei Pu's death have to do with Huo Shenxiu and her?
She and Huo Shenxiu didn't know Pei Pu at all.

The next day, in the suburbs, in the research room.
In the evening, after Gu Qingruo finished handling her work, she heard Assistant Shao come in: "Doctor Gu, Miss Su is here and wants to see you."
Gu Qingruo's expression changed and she walked out, only to see Su Mi playing with a group of sick children in the yard.
A group of children were so happy to see Su Mi coming and they were chattering. When they heard the noise, they turned around:
"Doctor Gu!"
Su Mi straightened up, looked at Gu Qingruo, and said hello: "Okay, Doctor Gu."
He smiled brightly at the children again: "How about you go to Assistant Shao's place to see the gifts I brought today?"
The children couldn't wait for a long time, and the animals and birds dispersed to study their gifts.
Gu Qing walked down the stairs: "Miss Su, what do you want from me?"
Su Mi looked at her arm: "Is Dr. Gu's injury healed?"
Gu Qingruo curled her lips: "Ms. Su came all this way just to ask if I'm okay? Don't worry, I've been fine for a long time. The second master arranged for me to have a full-body checkup, and everything was fine. After I was discharged from the hospital, the second master
I was asked to rest for two days, but I felt fine and came to work anyway."
Su Mi knew that she was deliberately trying to make her jealous, so she didn't mind:
"That's good. I came here today hoping to have a frank chat with Dr. Gu."
Gu Qingruo was curious: "What can Miss Su and I have to talk about? Isn't it because Miss Su moved away from Huayuan and now regrets it and is too embarrassed to approach the second master, so she asked me to be a lobbyist? I and I
Although we are close to the second master, it is not easy to interfere in emotional matters. Miss Su is afraid that she has found the wrong person."
Seeing that she was still irritating her, Su Mi suddenly said: "Doctor Gu is so instigating the relationship between me and the second master because he has lost his beloved and doesn't want others to live well, right?"
Gu Qingruo's expression suddenly froze, as if frozen by frost and snow, and her slender body trembled imperceptibly.
Immediately, he regained his composure and raised his chin slightly: "What are you talking about?"
Su Mi said calmly: "Dr. Gu has a mysterious fiancé, but he has never admitted it. It's because that man has the same profession as me, he is an actor, so you haven't announced it to the public, right?"
Gu Qingruo's shoulders trembled slightly again, but she said coldly: "I don't know what you are talking about. If it's these boring things, please forgive me for not accompanying you..."
Seeing that she was about to go in, Su Mi suddenly said to her back:
"Pei Pu, I am your fiancé."
"You have known him since you were in school. That year he went to your country to film a movie, and he met and fell in love with you."
"You were so passionately in love that you even asked for leave and came to China to have a secret meeting with him."
"I guess you even got engaged privately and became an unmarried couple."
"But he is an actor. He probably didn't disclose it to you because of his future, and you didn't tell anyone. So, people around you know that you are in love, but they don't know who it is."
"You guys maintained an underground relationship like this for several years until Pei Pu suddenly fell into the sea and died."
