Chapter Fifty-Seven: Love is Unfathomable

  When I and Liang Xue arrived at the police station, Jiang Xiaoqiao had been standing outside for a long time. She was shivering continuously in front of the police station door, which made me feel heartbroken.

  "Are you stupid? On a cold day like this, you won't stay in the house and wait?" I hastily ran towards Jiang Xiaoqiao and quickly hugged her into my arms.

  "I never want to come to a place like this again in my life! It's too terrifying!" Jiang Xiaoqiao's voice was trembling with fear.

  Jiang Xiaoqiao is really scared this time.

  "What about Liang Chengming? Didn't you say on the phone that he was also here?"

  "That bastard left first! Said the company has something!"

  Liang Xue, who was following behind me, saw Jiang Xiaoqiao's frozen expression and quickly hailed a taxi on the side of the road, gesturing for me and Jiang Xiaoqiao to get in, then slowly spoke.

  After getting on the taxi, I found that Jiang Xiaoqiao's lips were white with fear.

  "Is it because of Wang Tao's matter?" I whispered a sentence to Jiang Xiaoqiao.

  Jiang Xiaoqiao silently nodded twice.

  "My god! Does this have something to do with you? How did you and Liang Chengming end up being interrogated together?"

  "After the three of us parted ways yesterday, I planned to go find Liang Chengming. Since I had secretly made a copy of Liang Chengming's house key before, I went directly to his home."

  "My goodness! Are you crazy? Aren't you afraid of Wang Tao being at home?"

  "I've investigated and found out that Wang Tao and Liang Chengming have been at odds with each other for some time. Wang Tao has even gone to live with her father for two consecutive weeks! That's why I dared to go!"

  "What's next?" I asked curiously.

  Then I went to Liang Chengming's home and found that there was no one at his home, so I waited for him to come back. Then suddenly three policemen came to his home and knocked on the door. I didn't open the door and they said I was violating public duty. But I was really afraid of the police, so I opened the door. After they entered, it was a mess. I saw them find a document in the study room, and then they took me away too, saying that I needed to assist with an investigation. On the way to the police station, I had no idea what was going on until I arrived at the police station and saw Liang Chengming there, after which I learned that Wang Tao had died.

  "You didn't say anything you shouldn't have at the police station, did you?" Liang Xue suddenly spoke up, hitting the key point.

  "When I entered the police station, Liang Chengming was also startled. He made a zipping motion across his mouth and then we were separated. The key is that I really didn't know how Wang Tao died, so throughout the interrogation process, I just shook my head and said I didn't know."

  "That's all right then, as long as it has nothing to do with you!" I patted Jiang Xiaoqiao's back, comforting her.

  "But... I heard the police asking me those questions, and it seemed like they were saying that Wang Tao's death was caused by Liang Chengming alone." Jiang Xiaoqiao carefully spoke out her inference, but she herself wasn't certain.

  "Don't spout nonsense! This is a matter of life and death!" I reminded Jiang Xiaoqiao.

  "But the police found a document at his home, didn't they? It was Wang Tao's will, which stated that after her death, she would transfer 30% of her shares in Hongqi Group to Liang Chengming. Can you imagine a young woman taking the trouble to make a will for no reason? This is too unreasonable! Moreover, she has a three-year-old son!" Jiang Xiaojiao said excitedly, causing the driver to frequently turn his head to look at her.

  I signaled Jiang Xiaoqiao to suppress her anger, then said: "Things won't be that simple, anyway you've proven your innocence now, don't worry about the rest, the police will handle it!"

  "Okay!!! I've been stuck at the police station all night and I'm starving, let's go get something to eat!"

  "Good!"

  We three people arrived at the restaurant and ordered a total of four servings because Jiang Xiaoqiao was so hungry that she didn't know east, south, west or north.

  After Liang Xue and I ate a few mouthfuls casually, we watched Jiang Xiaoqiao gobble down the dishes.

  Looking at her eating so deliciously, I finally feel that pregnant women's appetites are still quite big, but it was before she had a severe pregnancy reaction.

  Looking at Jiang Xiaoqiao's disheveled appearance, I still couldn't help but nag her and express my concerns.

  "Xiao Qiao! Can I say something I shouldn't?"

  Jiang Xiaoqiao looked up at me and knew I had something to say to her. She nodded, eating while saying: "Go ahead!"

  "If... I mean if! If Wang Tao's death was really caused by Liang Chengming, would the child in your belly still be here?"

  I guess on this sensitive issue, Jiang Xiaoqiao must have considered it, although she is blindly persistent, but she is still very clever.

  She paused with the chopsticks in her hand, but continued to pick up dishes, and also added two pieces of meat to my bowl and Liang Xue's bowl, pretending not to hear what I said, saying: "You two are eating, aren't you? Don't just watch me eat!"

  I saw Jiang Xiaoqiao deliberately avoiding my question, so I asked again: "Jiang Xiaoqiao, answer my question."

  This time, Jiang Xiaoqiao put down her chopsticks. Her eyes were very tired, but also very sincere.

  Jiang Xiaoqiao wiped the corner of her mouth with a tissue and said, "To be honest, although I also suspect Liang Chengming, but I still understand him. All these years, he has always regarded Wang Tao as the only important woman in his life. When he was 16 years old, both parents passed away, and it was Wang Tao who helped him all along. Although he is a flirt, his feelings for Wang Tao are real, I think he won't hurt Wang Tao for money. And I love him, I really want to have the child."

  Jiang Xiaoqiao's tone was very firm, even recklessly firm.

  I really don't understand what Jiang Xiaoqiao likes about Liang Chengming. In terms of wealth, the two are evenly matched; in terms of looks, Liang Chengming is at most a middle-aged man, while Jiang Xiaoqiao is a beauty; and in terms of character, Liang Chengming is absolutely a playboy.

  No matter how I think about it, I always feel that Liang Chengming is not worthy of Jiang Xiaoqiao, but Jiang Xiaoqiao is so devoted to him.

  Is love really so inexplicable? I just can't understand it.

  After Jiang Xiaoqiao had eaten and drunk enough, she and Liang Xue returned home.

  I took a taxi back to Wang Ke's house alone, planning to go back and change into thicker clothes, then head to the bus station to pick up Zhu Yang and have a face-to-face negotiation with him.

  When I arrived home, Fang Wenke had already returned and he also bought a lot of vegetables and meat for dinner.

  As I took off my shoes and entered the house, I saw him in the kitchen cleaning a fish that looked quite plump.

  Looking at his serious face, I suddenly felt reluctant to tell him that I would be meeting Zhu Yang soon.

  I first went to the bathroom to wash my hands clean, then I went to the kitchen. Fang Wenke saw that I was back and directly yelled at me to help him wash vegetables, saying he wanted to show off his skills today.

  I smiled and looked at the childish Fang Wenke, then constantly organized language in my heart, thinking about how to tell him that I would meet Zhu Yang soon.

  Suddenly, Fang Wenke turned around and pinched my cheek. His hand had a lot of fish scales stuck to it, making my face shine with reflected light.

  He silently looked at me for two seconds, then said casually: "Baby, are you going to meet Zhu Yang soon? Tell Zhu Yang now and let him come directly to our home! I'll cook delicious food for you guys!"

  When I heard what House said, all I could say was that I was shocked at this moment. My mouth twitched and I stared straight into his eyes, saying: "You... how did you know that Zhu Yang would come to find me today?"

  "While you were in the fitting room today, I was bored and took a look at your phone messages!"

  "What's wrong with you? You're not angry at all? And you still want to cook for me and Zhu Yang? Fang Wenke, have you gone mad?" I subconsciously touched Fang Wenke's forehead, thinking that he might be having a fever or a nervous breakdown.

  "You're just going to reject Zhu Yang anyway, aren't you? Don't tell me you still want to make up with him? I just want to let him see how happy we are together!" Fang Wenke pinched my cheeks again, leaving a strong fishy smell on my face.

  I struggled free from his grasp and said, "You can invite him home too, but you must guarantee that tonight you won't be jealous and your words won't be provocative! Got it?"

  "Oh no! Zhu Yang is also my classmate, I know! Hurry up and give Zhu Yang a call! Tell him our home address!" Fang Wenke said somewhat impatiently.

  "Alright! Alright! Alright! I'll call you right now!"

  I glared at Fang Wenke and then quickly picked up my phone to call Zhu Yang.

  I think tonight should be a bloodless war.
