Seriously injured in a car accident, his wife confessed her love for his "white moonlight"

Seeing this, Li Cui waved her hand and said, "No, Qianqian, I don't want this house. I was just thinking, since you've already put your money with me, right..."

"You said that since you have concerns, you plan to leave your valuables with me..."

"Well... it's all the same whether you put things away or not. I'm just an old woman, I don't really need these things. As your mother, I'm just keeping them for you, aren't I?"

As Li Cui spoke, her expression gradually became tense.

Zhang Qian remained silent, still feeling a little dizzy, and simply looked at Li Cui with a faint expression.

Unexpectedly, the silent observation made Li Cui feel as if she had been discovered, and she became even more visibly nervous!

"No! You! Why are you looking at me like that, kid!"

"You were the one who suggested putting your money with me! I didn't force you!"

"You... I'm your own mother, how dare you doubt me?!"

Zhang Qian was slightly taken aback.

At this moment, Li Cui felt nervous. For some reason, she felt that something was familiar, as if she had seen it somewhere before.

As she thought about it, Zhang Qian's mind raced back to the day she had the accident, when the police came to her door and Li Cui cried out in distress.

It's strangely similar to what's in front of me now, in some way I can't quite put my finger on it!

"Mom, I didn't say anything."

Zhang Qian spoke calmly, her brows slightly furrowed.

Why are you reacting so strongly?

"Huh? You didn't say anything...you didn't say anything at all..."

A bead of sweat rolled down Li Cui's forehead, and her eyes darted away.

Zhang Qian isn't stupid.

Zhang Qian simply hadn't thought about it carefully before due to her health condition.

Looking back now, although there's no evidence to prove anything wrong with my mother's actions these days, she is, after all, my biological mother. Every move she makes, including her words and even her expressions, reveals bizarre things that, upon closer reflection, are quite common.

Seeing that Li Cui's expression was becoming increasingly unnatural, Zhang Qian said calmly, "Mom, don't overthink it. I'm just saying that the mortgage on this house hasn't been paid off yet, so we can't complete the transfer of ownership right now."

"Ah, hahaha, yes, look at this old woman of mine, I'm getting old, my mind really isn't working well anymore..."

"Hey, you rest, let me check how the medicine in the pot is doing!"

With that, Li Cui fled the house as if she were escaping.

Zhang Qian frowned slightly, picked up the medicine bowl in front of her, smelled it, and gently placed it on the table.

She didn't expose Li Cui earlier because she didn't know anything about her yet, and revealing things too easily would alert her.

Moreover, so far, it has been my own intuition that has led to the conclusion that there is a problem, and I still cannot rashly convict Li Cui.

After all, she was his mother, and one of the few remaining members of his family.

I don't know why she's changed her temper. She spends several hours every day brewing medicine for herself. If I really misunderstand her, I'll really regret it.

Zhang Qian held the bowl of medicine in front of her and fell into deep thought.

……

At the police station.

Xiaoqing leaned back in her chair, holding a notebook in her hand, staring blankly at the notes on it, biting a pen in her mouth.

She had just returned from the hospital.

The homeless man at the hospital had woken up, but it was unclear whether he was mentally challenged or had seen something terrifying at the crime scene that had driven him insane. In any case, after being questioned for over an hour, the homeless man gesticulated wildly and talked nonsense for over an hour.

After working hard for half a day, Xiaoqing hadn't managed to ask a single useful question, and she sighed repeatedly in frustration.

It seems this homeless man may have suffered a significant shock and is not in a very stable mental state. He needs to rest for a couple of days before asking questions.

However, wouldn't my clues go cold again while the homeless man is resting?

Thinking of this, Xiaoqing suddenly had a flash of inspiration and remembered what Zhao Jing had said last night.

"It seems... the breakthrough still lies in..."

"Okay! It's settled then!"

With that in mind, Xiaoqing dialed a phone number.

……

At the Xu Group, Xu Tian was reviewing yesterday's documents when Zhao Jing suddenly called.

"Hey Xu Tian, ​​are you free tonight?"

Xu Tian was slightly taken aback.

at night?

Could this girl be trying to seduce me again?!

Just how far will this shameless woman go before she stops?

To be fair, even though Xu Tian had been abstaining from sex for some time, he still couldn't help but swallow hard when he thought of Zhao Jing's allure that night.

only……

"Cough cough, no!"

Xu Tian blushed and said, "Not only tonight, but tomorrow night, the night after tomorrow, and the night after that, I don't have time at all. Forget about it!"

As he spoke, he was about to hang up.

"Hey! Don't hang up! Don't hang up!"

Zhao Jing seemed to have caught the underlying meaning in Xu Tian's words on the phone, and quickly stopped him, saying, "You! Really, what did I say!"

"You don't actually think that when I asked you if you were free tonight, it was because I wanted to... you know?"

Xu Tian was slightly taken aback.

What do you mean?

What else could she possibly want from me?

Could it really be something serious like work?

"Cough cough."

Xu Tian felt that he might have misunderstood, and was a little embarrassed, as if he were a narcissist. He asked with a red face, "I'm sorry, then I might have misunderstood."

"I thought you were asking me about tonight because you wanted to..."

"Yes, that's what I wanted to say to you!"

"Snapped--!"

"Hey! No!!"

"Beep beep..."

The call is connected.

"Xu Tian, ​​can't you let people finish speaking!"

"Stop talking! I'm busy tonight, busy tomorrow night, busy the night after tomorrow and the night after that! I have to go home!"

"You! You bastard, you asked me if I wanted to be with you, of course I do! But I didn't call to tell you I wanted to be with you!"

"Hehe, that's really rare~"

Xu Tian gave a cold laugh.

I couldn't sleep well all night because of Xiaoqing. Today, he's annoyed with everyone and has already made two employees who were late cry.

"I'd like to hear what else is on your mind besides 'that'?"

"Xu Tian! You bastard, do you really think I'm a pervert?!"

"Isn't that right of you? What else could be on your mind besides 'that'?"

Zhao Jing's face flushed red from the retort, and she said angrily, "Someone asked me to invite you to dinner! Otherwise, who would bother calling you, you lousy Xu Tian!"

Xu Tian was slightly taken aback, his brows furrowing.

"Someone wants to ask me out to dinner? Who is it?"

Zhao Jing: "Xiao Qing."

"Then you might as well have told me you wanted to go on a date with me!"
