Chapter 1620: She Wanted to Be Brave for Him!
Cen Xi and Gu Meng walked toward the gate. Qiao Yanze, who had gotten out of the car, was greeting Ye Qing, who was smoking in the yard.
Gu Meng looked at Qiao Yanze, who was wearing a white s.h.i.+rt and black pants that looked exquisite. She wanted to see if there was any sadness on his handsome face, but she did not see it…
He and Tang Xi were good brothers who had played together since they were young. When he proposed to Xiao Xi, it had been Tang Xi’s idea. As his childhood friend, it was impossible for Qiao Yanze to remain indifferent if something had happened to Tang Xi.
Besides, Xiao Xi did not know about Tang Xi’s accident!
There was something fishy about this!
Gu Meng told Cen Xi about Tang Xi’s accident in Y Country. Cen Xi was surprised when she heard it. “I didn’t hear Yanze mention it!”
Cen Xi glanced at Qiao Yanze and said softly to Gu Meng, “I’ll ask him later. But I don’t think it’s serious to the point where he’s gone. If that’s really the case, the Tang family can’t possibly not notify Yanze.”
Gu Meng agreed with Cen Xi. “Thank you, Xiao Xi.”
“It’s no trouble. Young Master Tang has had a crush on your cousin for many years. If they can have a good ending, it will be a happy ending for everyone.” Cen Xi made a gesture of contacting her on the phone later. “Don’t worry, I’ll clear the air for your cousin!”
After Gu Meng and Ye Qing left, Qiao Yanze went into the living room.,
Seeing the woman making supper in the kitchen, Qiao Yanze handed his coat and briefcase to the butler, walked over and wrapped his arms around Cen Xi’s slender waist from behind.
“What did Gu Meng and Ye Qing come over for?”
Cen Xi leaned against Qiao Yanze’s chest and looked up at him. “Have you seen Tang Xi recently?”
“I’ve been busy with a big order in the company recently and haven’t contacted him for some time. A few days ago, he told me not to disturb him and said that he wanted to live with his G.o.ddess.”
Cen Xi told Qiao Yanze what Gu Meng had told her.
“Now, Tang Xi’s G.o.ddess thinks that Tang Xi got into a car accident and is dead. The Tang family has also kept it from her and is making her think that Tang Xi is really gone!”
Qiao Yanze frowned. “It’s impossible for him to be gone, but the accident is probably real. He might be injured. The Tang family probably doesn’t want Tang Xi to have any contact with Ling Hui anymore.”
After Cen Xi heard from Qiao Yanze, she went upstairs to call Gu Meng.
…
Ling Hui woke up again after sleeping for a while.
She had not rested properly for the past few days and her head hurt terribly.
Gu Meng saw that the lights in Ling Hui’s room were turned on and she knocked on the door to enter.
“Mengmeng, have you asked where the memorial will be held?”
Gu Meng shook her head. “I didn’t ask where the memorial service is. However, Xiao Xi called me just now. Young Master Tang might still be alive!”
Ling Hui was stunned for a moment. Then, immense joy filled her heart. She walked quickly to Gu Meng and held her arm, asking excitedly, “Really? Tang Xi is still alive?”
Then, she thought about how Chief Lu had found two burnt corpses in the taxi and Tang Xi’s identification photo near the accident. Ling Hui’s expression turned serious again.
Gu Meng saw what Ling Hui was thinking and raised her hand, placing it under her chin as she thought for a moment. “Sister Ling Hui, could it be that there were indeed two pa.s.sengers in the taxi. But along the way from the hospital to the airport, not every road has surveillance cameras installed and maybe one of the pa.s.sengers got out of the car where there are no surveillance cameras?”
Ling Hui nodded thoughtfully. “I’ll call Chief Lu now and ask him to send all the footage from the surveillance cameras they’ve collected over for us to see.”
…
After Chief Lu sent a few videos over, Gu Meng and Ling Hui observed them carefully and found that there was indeed something wrong with one of the videos. When Tang Xi got into the car, the back window had been closed, but after driving for a distance, the window was half open and they could vaguely see smoke coming out.
“Mengmeng, looking at it this way, other than Tang Xi, there was another pa.s.senger in the taxi. When the taxi fell down the hill, Tang Xi jumped out and his wallet fell out!”
Gu Meng nodded. “Yes, I think so too.”
Ling Hui placed her hands on her forehead and furrowed her eyebrows tightly. “After the accident, the police arrived at the scene very quickly. If Tang Xi was saved by someone, that person must be rather powerful to be able to hide the truth for a short period of time.”
Ling Hui seemed to have thought of something and frowned even more. “It might be the Tenth Princess of B Country.”
This possibility was very high. There were no traces of Tang Xi in Country Y and Country S now. If he was still alive, he must have been taken away!
“Sister Ling Hui, what do you plan to do next?”
Ling Hui shut her reddened eyes. “Most importantly, I have to find him.”
It was obvious that Fang Ye showed her the diary to let her know the truth. Fang Ye must know where Tang Xi was in B Country!
“Mengmeng, can you ask the Third Prince to send someone to follow Fang Ye secretly? He will definitely contact Tang Xi!”
“Alright, I’ll go tell him now. Sister Ling Hui, sleep a little more!”
…
After knowing that Tang Xi might still be alive, the weight on Ling Hui’s heart had been relieved a little.
However, she still could not fall asleep lying on the bed. She only felt sleepy after taking two sleeping pills.
After Ye Qing agreed to send a secret guard to follow Fang Ye, Gu Meng went to the guest room again. Seeing that Ling Hui had fallen asleep, she covered her with a blanket, dimmed the lights, closed the door, and left quietly.
Little Gugu had been staying with the Queen recently. The Queen was getting on in years and was now more humane than when she had been younger.
After knowing that Ye Qing was going to Italy with Gu Meng, the Queen sent the butler to bring Little Gugu to her palace.
Gu Meng would have to wait until tomorrow if she wanted to see Little Gugu.
After Ye Qing finished showering, he saw Gu Meng standing at the door of the guest room. He walked over and held her shoulders. “Are you still worried about Ling Hui?”
Gu Meng sighed. “I hope Tang Xi is still alive and can give Sister Ling Hui happiness in the future!”
“It’s not good for us to get involved in matters of the heart. Let Ling Hui handle it herself once we find Tang Xi!”
Gu Meng leaned into Ye Qing’s arms and hugged his waist. Smelling his refres.h.i.+ng and charming scent, her eyes turned moist. “We must cherish our time together.”
Ye Qing kissed the top of Gu Meng’s head. “No matter what happens in the future, I will always be by your side.”
…
Ling Hui waited in the palace in agony for three days.
Fortunately, her guess was right. Ye Qing’s secret guard had secretly followed Fang Ye and found that he had gone to B Country last night.
Ye Qing’s secret guards had all undergone professional training. After Fang Ye arrived in B Country, he entered a hospital for n.o.bles. The secret guard found a way to sneak in and found information on Tang Xi.
Sure enough, Tang Xi was still alive. However, his head and left leg were injured and he had just woken up. He would not be able to leave the hospital anytime soon.
After Ling Hui received this news, she immediately booked a flight to country B.
Gu Meng wanted to go with Ling Hui, but Ling Hui rejected her. Tang Xi had done so much for her and she wanted to be brave!
