Urban Romance: The 7° Distance

Not far from the hotel, Xiao Yao heard the sound of footsteps chasing after him, and the sound of hurried running revealed the man's anxious mood. Soon Shu Qingfeng chased him, blocked his way, and said, "I'm sorry, little bird, plan Temporary changes, the teacher said..."

"Mr. Shu, please stop insulting my IQ, okay?"

The indifferent voice made Shu Qingfeng feel Xiao Yao's displeasure at the moment. He could understand Xiao Yao's mood, but the truth was not like this, so he continued to explain: "I can't refuse the teacher's request. In fact, the blind date is a formality. We It's just a meal."

"But that's not what you told me." Looking at him, Xiao Yao asked back: "If I didn't happen to come to this restaurant, I would never know if it was a blind date or not? Even until the day you get engaged I will be notified that I can withdraw after getting married, because you don’t need it anymore?”

"You're going too far, I told you, this is just a formality!"

Seeing Xiao Yao's self-righteous misunderstanding, Shu Qingfeng suddenly felt very anxious, engaged and married?Fortunately, he can figure it out, does he look like the kind of playful person?

The unhappiness was directly conveyed to the person standing in front of him, Xiao Yao misunderstood his mood, smiled, and said: "Yes, I should say sorry, and I forgot what you taught me, for such white lies, I should pretend that I don't know anything, don't point it out, and keep both of us happy."

The topic came back to the original point, Shu Qingfeng was so angry that he bit his lower lip tightly, but he didn't know who should be angry. After the last quarrel, Xiao Yao offered to make up. He thought Xiao Yao didn't mind anymore, but now he knew that he He cared, he just didn't say it, trying to maintain the illusion of peace, in order to match his own pace, this cognition made him regret his previous judgment, maybe he should say everything openly and honestly.

Seeing Xiao Yao turned around to leave, Shu Qingfeng hurriedly grabbed his hand and begged in a low voice: "This matter is a long story, shall we talk slowly when we go home?"

The wrist was tightly clenched, and there was some pain, so Xiao Yao had no choice but to stop, looked at Shu Qingfeng, and asked, "About Yuan Taixiang?"

Shu Qingfeng didn't speak, just nodded, Xiao Yao laughed at himself, he is not an idiot, he can see the origin of Shu Qingfeng's concealment, in fact, what he cares about is not Shu Qingfeng's concealment, but that he rejects himself in everything The feeling of being outside.

He has been trying very hard to get close to the other party, but he is rejected every time. Shu Qingfeng is a very self-aware person, and he will definitely do what he believes in. He understands, so he tries not to touch the other party's way of doing things and the bottom line, but Now, Shu Qingfeng has deprived him of even the most basic respect, so there is no need for this feeling to exist anymore.

"Would you please let go first?"

Responding coldly, Shu Qingfeng hesitated for a moment, let go of his hand, raised his hand unconsciously, and straightened his hanging hair. This action made him look a little irritable, a small action that is hard to see, Xiao Yao saw it In his eyes, he sighed and said: "Actually, I don't care if you really go on a blind date. I can understand your situation, but I don't want myself to know the truth in this situation. Have you ever thought that if you change places, you will not be able to return?" How does it feel?"

After a while of silence, Shu Qingfeng said, "There will be no next time."

"There won't be a next time." He didn't blame Shu Qingfeng for choosing someone else, but he couldn't forgive him for concealing his self-righteousness time and time again. He glanced aside and said softly, "Let's break up."

Shu Qingfeng's expression changed, as if he was shocked by his speech, which made Xiao Yao amused, and laughed at himself, "Maybe I shouldn't use the word breakup, but we are actually just bed partners, right?"

"Little bird!"

Rare angry scolding voices, and unconcealable panic, this is not like Shu Qingfeng who is usually calm and determined, but Xiao Yao doesn't want to pay attention to it, he is tired, today he took the pair of rings and prepared to give it to Shu Qingfeng, But Shu Qingfeng's concealment made him very disappointed. He worked very hard to pay attention to the relationship he managed. In the eyes of the other party, it was just a simple adult game.

The hand was clenched again in the next moment, Shu Qingfeng's eyes were colder than ever before, and he shouted: "Don't tell me the word bed partner!"

What if it's not a bed partner?Friends with benefits?

Xiao Yao wanted to ridicule the past, but unconsciously held back Shu Qingfeng's angry eyes, everyone was an adult, and he didn't want to embarrass each other over a trivial matter, but luckily the phone's ringtone broke the deadlock, seeing Shu Qingfeng Qingfeng took out his mobile phone, glanced at it and was about to turn it off, he stopped him and said, "You should be busy, I have something to do too."

"Well……"

Shu Qingfeng is in a bad mood now, and the sudden declaration of breaking up was really beyond his expectation.

Xiao Yao has a very good personality. He has been with him for so long, and he seldom gets angry. Even if there is some small friction, he will take the initiative to show his favor and tolerate his willfulness. He has always been confident that the other party cares about him, and he is even proud of it. When they broke up, he was more shocked than sad, and it was only now that he realized that he didn't know Xiao Yao as well as he imagined.

But in this kind of situation where both parties are excited, even if they forcefully continue, there will be no results, Shu Qingfeng said: "It's better to calm down, I will contact you later."

Xiao Yao nodded, Shu Qingfeng's fluctuating state affected him, making his mind even more chaotic, he turned around and left quickly, this time Shu Qingfeng didn't stop him again, he walked all the way back to his car, got in the car, and then returned to the car in a daze. God, this is Shu Qingfeng's car. After his car was blown up, Shu Qingfeng gave him his own car. This warm scene was only remembered in the blink of an eye.

Xiao Yao drove the car into the driveway and ran forward with the traffic in a daze. It was getting late, and the neon lights on both sides were constantly flashing, swaying with the mood, just like their relationship, from the beginning of mutual calculation to the mutual gratification , to investigate the case together, until the relationship gradually cools down unconsciously, he wants to stay, but he doesn't know what the problem is, but when he wants to give up, he is reluctant to give up, so he can only silently watch the passages of experience move forward Flicking behind, just like the scenery outside the window at this moment.

His eyes became blurred, Xiao Yao opened the car window to let Night Breeze cool down his emotions that he shouldn't have, the cell phone next to him rang, he glanced at it, it was an unfamiliar indoor phone, he put on the earphones, waited I answered after I calmed down a little.

"Xiao Yao, it's me. 』

It was He Lichun, Xiao Yao was taken aback for a moment, He Lichun had disappeared suddenly after the explosion, and he never gave him harassing calls. Although he felt strange, he didn't think about it. Having nothing to say, He Lichun misunderstood his silence, and hurriedly said: "I'm sorry, I know I was wrong about that incident, but I really didn't want you to have an accident. It was all done by Yuan Taixiang, the director of Wing On, I turned my face on him because of this... Don't call the police, listen to me, I know I shouldn't call you, but I'm so scared, I have no one I can trust except you...』

The incoherent speech, with a bit of crying, proved that He Lichun was in a state of extreme panic at the moment. Xiao Yao couldn't understand what she was saying, but vaguely felt that it was related to him. He turned the car to the side of the road and stopped, saying: "Calm down and speak slowly, what did Yuan Taixiang do? What happened to the police?"

"It's about your car being bombed. I was annoyed at the time and wanted to scare you, but Yuan Taixiang would really put explosives... Actually, I was very worried about you, but I was afraid that you would call the police and dare not contact you... ...'

Infected by Xiao Yao's calm voice, He Lichun calmed down a bit, and told the story of the bombing of the car intermittently, worried that Xiao Yao would hate herself, so she put all the blame on Yuan Taixiang. Listening to her narration, Xiao Yao recalled The scene where Shu Qingfeng went to the company to help him pick up his phone that day, combined with the subsequent experience, immediately fully understood.

He never saw He Lichun's calls and text messages to him, nor did he reply to warn He Lichun, all of this was done by Shu Qingfeng, that person would not do meaningless things, maybe since then he had the idea of ​​fighting back, Xiao Yao couldn't guess how to do it right away, but it would definitely make Yuan Taixiang miserable. Hiding the knife in a smile has always been Shu Qingfeng's best method.

His mood, which had just calmed down a little bit, became confused again because of this unexpected news. He never thought that Shu Qingfeng had such a deep mind, and the line was so long. In order to achieve his goal, he did not hesitate to cooperate with Yuan Taixiang. , he didn't think that He Lichun caused the whole thing, Shu Qingfeng would let her go, and asked: "In this case, why did you call me again all of a sudden?"

"Tell me, if I help you testify against Yuan Taixiang in court, will my charges not be too severe?" 』

"Why did you do that?"

"I..." He Lichun hesitated and said, "I feel that Yuan Taixiang wants to kill me. I want to protect myself. As long as you don't sue me for the explosion, I should be fine, right?" 』

The anxious tone made Xiao Yao feel like he hadn't seen him for a long time, and He Lichun's mental state got worse, and he fell into the delusion of being persecuted. He didn't want to meddle in his own business, and was about to find an excuse to hang up the phone, when He Lichun said again: "It's true." After Yuan Taixiang’s lawyer signed the extended share agency contract with me, my activities were controlled. No matter where I went, people followed me. Yuan Taixiang’s bodyguards came to monitor me...』

Yuan Taixiang's lawyer, isn't that Shu Qingfeng?

Xiao Yao immediately gave up the idea of ​​hanging up the phone, and tentatively asked: "Is it because you are thinking too much? Even if you have conflicts, he will not kill you."

"No, I remember they made me sign other contracts by the way. I can't remember the content, but it must have something to do with the transfer of shares. I think they may have drugged my diet to make me lose my mind. When I signed it, if my shares were transferred to Yuan Taixiang, then I would have no value in existence, and I would definitely be killed like my husband. What should I do?Xiao Yao, help me...』

"Yuan Tai'an?"

The former director of Wing On Company passed away in a car accident. Xiao Yao suddenly heard He Lichun say that he was murdered, he couldn't help being taken aback, and asked, "Are you sure?"

"I'm sure. I can prove that [-]% of them may be done by Yuan Taixiang. I'm afraid that my shares have been transferred to Yuan Taixiang's name. Lawyer Shu showed me the files and said he was just an agent, but I didn't believe him. He I'm with Yuan Taixiang, thanks to the fact that I believed him so much in the beginning, that bastard, I won't let him go...』

The chattering complaints continued to reach Xiao Yao's ears, disturbing his heart even more. He knew that Shu Qingfeng had the ability to confuse people's hearts, but the truth of this matter could not be concluded based on He Lichun's words alone, but In any case, inducing the other party to sign a contract is a crime. If Shu Qingfeng really intervenes, it will be troublesome. He must not let Shu Qingfeng be involved in the crime.

"what to do?I called my lawyer but couldn't get through, Xiao Yao, do you think I want to call the police... I'll go find clothes... call the police...』

He Lichun spoke incoherently, in a state of hysteria, Xiao Yao hurriedly stopped her and said, "Don't be impulsive, I'll go over right away, wait for me, we'll talk when we meet."

At least wait for him to find out the inside story before finding a solution. If it has nothing to do with Shu Qingfeng, then forget it. If it is, he must find a way to make He Lichun dispel the idea of ​​calling the police, so it is necessary to appease him first.

Under his comfort, He Lichun finally controlled her emotions and said, "Okay, hurry up, I still have to get clothes..."

Xiao Yao agreed. When he first met He Lichun, he was invited to her house. The residence was a little far away from his current location. He was afraid that He Lichun would change his mind midway, so he accelerated the accelerator and rushed over as fast as possible.

He Lichun has an arrogant and irritable personality. After her husband passed away, she couldn't get along with the Yuan family, and she didn't want to go back to her natal family, so she bought a two-story bungalow in a high-end residential area. When Xiao Yao arrived, she found that the whole house was lit. I can see that He Lichun must be very scared to turn on all the lights to embolden her.

He got out of the car and went forward to ring the doorbell, but the bell rang for a long time, but no one came to answer the door. It was very late, and it was impolite to call the door loudly. He pulled the doorknob, but the door was unlocked, and followed him The pull opens.

Xiao Yao didn't go in right away, but called at the door, but it was still quiet inside, it didn't look like someone was at home, Xiao Yao wondered if He Lichun couldn't wait for him to come, and went to other friends, hesitated for a while, Go in and call: "Miss He, are you home?"

Xiao Yao came to the hall along the corridor, the table in the middle of the hall was skewed, a large piece of tablecloth was pulled to the ground, and seeing the fragments of the teacup falling on the ground, he felt something was wrong, and was about to leave, his eyes glanced at the space under the tablecloth, Faintly saw someone lying there, and hurried over, and saw He Lichun lying on the ground, her gorgeous dress was stained with blood, her body was twisted into a strange shape, her eyes were wide open, meeting his gaze .

Being stared at by lifeless eyes, Xiao Yao was calm and bold, but he couldn't help being startled. He hurriedly took out his mobile phone, wanting to call the police, but just as he turned around, his eyes suddenly went dark, and a heavy object hit him. There was severe pain on his forehead, and before he could react to what was going on, his sanity sank into darkness following the heavy blow.

Not long after, an alarm sounded in a trance, and then the silent space became noisy. He was lifted and sent to another place, in a daze. When he woke up again, he found himself lying on the floor of the corridor, surrounded by In addition to the doctor, there are several unknown men.

His head was aching, Xiao Yao sat up according to the doctor's order, he sat up a little anxiously, his neck hurt, he answered the doctor's question blankly, but his eyes turned around those people, there was a feeling that these people were related to He Lichun .

Sure enough, when the doctor finished the examination, the leading middle-aged man walked up to him, showed him his criminal police certificate, and said, "I'm from the serious crimes team. Now I suspect that you are related to a murder case. Please contact us." Go back and assist with the investigation."

Xiao Yao felt that he should thank Shu Qingfeng. If there was no mock detention last time, he would not be so calm now. After being brought into the interrogation room, he could still maintain a calm state of mind. Except for being hit on the head, which made him feel uncomfortable , everything is fine.

In the next few hours, he learned from the interrogation of the police that He Lichun was killed. The person who discovered it was He Lichun's neighbor. When he came back from a walk, he saw that the floor-to-ceiling windows were broken and someone was lying in a pool of blood, so he immediately called the police. .

There were a few scratches from He Lichun's fingernails on Xiao Yao's neck, his clothes were also stained with blood, and the murder weapon was held in his hand, so all the unfavorable evidence pointed to him, but with this information alone, he could not Judging the truth of the matter, let alone talking nonsense before knowing the ins and outs, so he insisted from the beginning to the end that he was going to visit He Lichun, and he was beaten unconscious after entering. The scar on his forehead is the best proof , As for the details, he said he would wait for his lawyer to reply.

After the same conversation was repeated several times, the policemen became impatient. After a while, someone came in and whispered a few words to the interrogating policeman. Xiao Yao had seen that person before. When he went to the reception, this man also attended.

It seemed that Shu Qingyan asked someone to speak for him. After the policeman listened to what the man said, he didn't ask any more questions, and asked his subordinates to take him to the detention room.

So Xiao Yao was imprisoned in a familiar place again. The difference was that this cell was bigger and guarded more strictly. From the opposite window, he could see that it was already daylight. After tossing all night, his dizziness Simply lie down and sleep, he doesn't know the truth yet, so before getting more news, maintaining physical strength is the best way to deal with it.

Gu Shaoxuan came here the next afternoon. Xiao Yao was not surprised by his appearance. Journalists are the best at breaking news, especially in cases involving celebrities. He Lichun is a wealthy widow. Enough newspaper news to make enough articles, Gu Shaoxuan must have seen the relevant news on TV, so he came so soon.

Sure enough, when he saw him, Gu Shaoxuan yelled, "What's going on? How could you make such a dispute?"

It was hard to say, he didn't know where to start, and even if he knew, he didn't intend to tell his old friend, Xiao Yao looked at the prison guard standing beside him, and said to Gu Shaoxuan: "Cheng Cheng is about to give birth, what are you doing here?"

"Can I not come here? Brother, such a big thing happened, and I still keep it from Cheng Cheng, lest she will be anxious if she finds out."

Gu Shaoxuan glared at Xiao Yao angrily. As a good friend, of course he knew the various methods He Lichun used to pursue him, so when he saw the headlines about the murder of a wealthy widow and the arrest of a suspect in the news, he was so surprised that he knocked over his water glass Now, when he saw Xiao Yao's name typed out, he knew that his friend was in bad luck again, so he entrusted Xiao Cheng to the nurse in the afternoon, and he found an excuse to run over. With Shu Qingyan's help, he saw it easily Xiao Harrier.

I didn't expect that I was worried to death, but the person involved looked leisurely, as if he wasn't the one who was imprisoned, Shu Qingyan said that Xiao Yao had hurt his head, but Gu Shaoxuan saw that his complexion was very good, everything was normal except that his beard was not shaved, This guy's nerves are not ordinary, he thought bitterly.

"I just said that you had an affair with that bastard lawyer. Since you two met, you have become more and more unlucky. Ha, you drank too much last night and you were possessed by an evil spirit. Why did you take the initiative to find He Lichun?"

"I just... wanted to find it."

Xiao Yao gave Gu Shaoxuan the answer that he wanted to jump off the building. If it wasn't for the iron bars in the middle, Gu Shaoxuan would definitely have swung his fist and shouted: "Be serious!"

"Okay," Xiao Yao pointed to his forehead and asked, "There is no mirror here, please help me to see, am I disfigured?"

Gu Shaoxuan didn't speak, seeing murderous eyes shot over, Xiao Yao was very helpless, he was about to become a father, and he was so angry, he said: "I was sap last night, and I fainted without seeing the murderer. I didn't kill He Lichun."

"Of course I know you didn't kill him." Gu Shaoxuan rolled his eyes at him angrily, and asked, "What about the lawyer? Isn't he General Changsheng? Let him take charge of your case."

"Let's wait for the results of the appraisal to come out."

As for how Shu Qingfeng would deal with it, Xiao Yao still couldn't think of it, but since even Gu Shaoxuan knew about it, Shu Qingfeng must also know about it, maybe he knew the inside story clearly, before he saw his attitude, he Don't talk nonsense.

Gu Shaoxuan didn't insist, and said in a deep voice, "That's fine, I don't believe that guy either, I'll find someone else to look at it for you."

"I'm just a suspect now, I haven't been convicted yet, so don't rush to find a lawyer, right?"

Gu Shaoxuan glared at Xiao Yao, and wanted to say that he was at the scene when the news reported the death of the deceased, holding the murder weapon in his hand. The Yuan family had already been interviewed in the morning, and expressed their position in front of many reporters. What would happen to Li Chun's death? In redressing grievances, Xiao Yao has a lot of money, and he can't fight at all. This lawsuit has to be fought, so it's better for him to plan ahead.

However, in order not to increase Xiao Yao's psychological burden, Gu Shaoxuan didn't say much, and Xiao Yao didn't ask, saying: "Okay, I'm fine, you go back first, don't let Cheng Cheng wait, right, don't forget to help I take a leave."

Gu Shaoxuan didn't say anything, but thought to himself, if such a big case happened, he must not hire less. He must first ask the director's uncle to help Xiao Yao retain his job.
