Last time we saw each other, Hope said she’d be killed by him sooner or later?
What does all this mean? And what are they proclaiming?
Zhao Lanlan suddenly became a little frightened.
That man … used to use her and broke her family ah! Will he really do this to Hope?
No. She can’t believe it! She can’t believe it.
Zhao Lanlan rolled out of bed in a flash and pulled open the bedroom door to hurry out.
“Mom, Mom, are you there?” She raised her voice to call out.
Mrs. Xia came out of her room, “What’s wrong? Lanlan, is it uncomfortable?”
Zhao Lanlan’s face was all pale, and the more she thought about it, the more scared she became. Unwilling to believe that Xia Feiqing was that kind of person, however, what had happened in the past called for her heart to tremble. Therefore, even more urgently wanted an answer that negated those words of Yu Ningjiao.
“Mom, do you have a key to the house over at the Waxi Royal Mansion?”
“Yes, Feiqing changed the door just a while ago and gave me a spare key. Why do you suddenly want to go there?”
“No … mom, it’s just that Feiqing said he wanted to redecorate there and asked me to go over to take a look.” Zhao Lanlan had to casually lie.
“Okay, just wait.” Mrs. Summer turned and headed back to the bedroom to get her keys.
Zhao Lanlan took the key, changed her clothes and then hurried out. Sitting in the car, she was restless and kept dialing Zhao Yuanyuan’s phone number, but she could never get through.
She suddenly remembered something and immediately searched online for the phone number of Zhao Yuanyuan’s work unit. She couldn’t wait to call and asked about the situation, but the answer she got was that Zhao Yuanyuan hadn’t gone abroad on business at all, but had resigned.
The heart, precipitously, sank.
The fantasy that she had initially held until this moment was smashed to pieces. Her whole body felt like it had been dipped into a cold pool, making her shiver with cold.
He lied to her …
So says …
Is it true that he locked up Yuan Yuan as Yu Ningjiao said? And … drugs?
No! This is horrible!
“Miss, it’s here.” Just as her thoughts were disorganized, the car stopped and the driver called out to her. She then snapped back to her senses, paid her bill, and got out of the car on soft legs.
All the way, her legs were as heavy as lead.
Desperately wanting to know the answer, yet, afraid that the answer would be too heavy for her to bear. What should she do?
Torn, conflicted, struggling …
After all, she reached the door. She pulled the key out and the door, in response, opened. That ‘click’ sound made her heartstrings tense up, as if they would snap at any moment with a casual tug.
Push the door in.
The whole house was so quiet that there was no sound.
Deadly silence.
“Hope?” She called softly in a tentative voice, checking the hall searchingly. There was no one in the hall.
“Hope, are you there?” She called out as she searched room to room. It wasn’t until she reached one of the bedrooms that she shuddered hard at the sight of something glistening coldly in the corner.
It’s actually handcuffs!
And thick twine!
She was shaking all over. So Hope was really being held here by him?
She couldn’t believe it. Yet, little by little, the truth was ravaging her heart.
“Hope! Hope, do you hear me?!” She cried at once, her voice raising as she rushed in quickly, subconsciously heading for the bedroom bathroom.
“Ah…” pushing the door in and seeing an image that made her shriek and almost faint.
Confused, she haphazardly held onto a doorframe to keep her body from collapsing.
The floor is covered in blood … The world is filled with blood as if …
Her Hope, lying in a bathtub full of blood …
“Hope! No. Don’t you scare me …” She ran over and sat on the edge of the tub, taking the girl into her arms. Tears, raging, couldn’t be stopped, “Hope, open your eyes and look at me, you can’t leave me, you’re all that’s left of my sister …”
She tore her heart out and cried. However, the girl in her arms was motionless. She had long since stopped breathing, and even the pulled veins in her wrists had solidified …
Late!
It’s Too Late …
A life that has been lost in this moment …
The police, quickly arrived on the scene.
“Ms. Zhao, there are deep cut marks on the deceased’s wrists, initially, we believe it was a suicide. However, it’s worth noting that there are obvious binding marks on her wrists, and ankles, we suspect she was abused before her death.”
Abused …
Zhao Lanlan sat on the sofa, shivering in shivering, even her teeth were shaking.
How deranged is he that he can bear to keep a wonderful girl in a house, put her on drugs and abuse her so?
Xia Feiqing …
In this life … they are destined for nothing but hate! Only hate forever!
She’s such an idiot!
Once cheated, do not die, actually will believe him a second time … Now, even with Hope’s life also took …
She wanted to slap herself hard.
“Yes … she was abused.” Taking a deep breath, she finally spoke up, her voice had rasped so hard it was hard to hear what she was saying, “I know who abused her …”
“Xia Feiqing.” Saying these three words, tears clattered and trickled down again, and the heart, like being constantly cut by a knife, pulled out a bloody gash, “My ex-husband … in order to get back at me, locked her up, and gave her drugs.”
The policeman listened in amazement.
“Here’s a suicide note.” Another discovery.
Zhao Lanlan stood up almost immediately and reached for it. The suicide note, couldn’t have been simpler. There were only a few words.
“Sister, I can’t live any longer. Please, never be with Xia Feiqing! He’s a demon!”
She’s even freezing her veins. Before, if she had taken a chance, but now, Hope’s suicide note had said it all.
“Ms. Cho, can you be sure this is the deceased’s handwriting?”
“It’s hers, there can be no mistake …” Her lips were trembling.
“Okay, we will contact your ex-husband as soon as possible. Now please come with us to the police station to file a case.”
Zhao Lanlan didn’t go back to the Xia family.
Good thing that little house hadn’t been retired yet. She lay frozen in her bed, biting her pillow, but the choking sobs still came out uncontrollably. It echoed throughout the little house, like the wail of a wild animal, making the heart tremble at the smell of it.
Until this moment, she couldn’t believe that even Hope had left her.
Even more unbelievable …
The man, what he did.
Just last night, they were so sweet on the phone. Two days ago, his proposal of marriage, still Hao Rang in the ear …
So says …
So all that was a lie? Did he want the child in her womb?
Zhao Lanlan’s lax eyes fell to the ceiling, letting her tears dampen her pillow.
She wants …
Here, she really has no reason to stay anymore …
Xia Feiqing answered a phone call, it was from the police station.
“Yes, that’s right, I’m Xia Feiqing.”
