One way to go north

Chapter 188 Shedding the Cocoon 3
"We can't answer this question for you for the time being. The case will not be closed with Tong Zhixing's death." Chief Dai naturally spoke in an official tone and was unwilling to give an affirmative answer.

This is also what Tong Yinian expected. Since this case is transnational, there must be many people involved, so it will definitely not end here...

In the end, I couldn't help asking something that shouldn't be asked, although I knew it shouldn't be asked, but it just popped out like this, as if it was unstoppable.

"Excuse me... Where is Lu Xiangbei?"

Director Dai was a little embarrassed, but he answered her immediately, "He is Interpol. After assisting us in arresting criminal suspects, he returned to Beijing to report to work."

Tong Yinian heard that the scarred heart he had put together with great difficulty poured down again at that moment and turned into dust...

However, he never showed it on his face, and gave Director Dai a few simple and stiff words, "Thank you, see off."

She didn't know why Director Dai had to come to the door in person to inform her of her father's death. Wouldn't it be enough to let them go by themselves?Is it because the Tong family is a famous family after all, or because of the friendship with the Tong family in the past?

No, it's not like...

Otherwise, when she went to look for him that day, he would not have disappeared.

Director Dai and the two police officers were unwilling to face such a situation, so they left immediately.

Tong Yinian pinched the center of his eyebrows, only to feel a severe headache.

The little mother and Yiling hugged each other tightly, crying into a ball, and the little mother asked her with her face up while crying, "Nian Nian, once your father leaves like this, how will the company and property be divided?" Huh? I don't know if he has time to make a will, but don't let that white-eyed wolf Lu Xiangbei take over!"

Tong Yinian resented for a while, could it be that the word "property" will always occupy the top place in some people's worldview?Also, now that Lu Xiangbei is called a white-eyed wolf, why did he chase after him and flatter him?

Forgive her for really not wanting to stay with these two people who are the only ones related to the Tong family...

Without saying a word, she stood up and walked upstairs.

property?She sneered in her heart. According to the current situation, I'm afraid that this property will really no longer belong to them...

Prosperity is like a cloud of smoke, this fall came so fast...

This time, instead of going back to the bedroom, she went back to her father's study and threw herself into the chair where her father used to sit.

With her hands on the table, the photo album was still lying beside her.

Suddenly, she didn't dare to open it to look at it again, she was afraid, afraid that those yellowed photos would bring back the tears she had finally frozen.

She really doesn't want to cry anymore...

But, thinking of my father, thinking of that already aged back, even if I freeze my tears, how can I freeze the pain in my heart?
She remembered that when her father went out that day, she adjusted his tie, but she never thought that it was the only time in her life to tie his father's tie, the first and last time...

She also remembered that just the day before yesterday, she secretly made up her mind to be filial to her father in the days to come, but now, she doesn't even have a chance to treat him well...

Looking at my life for more than 20 years, I can only describe it with the word "failure". Let alone the failed marriage, she is still the most failed daughter...

In fact, in the final analysis, she herself killed her father...

It was she who agreed to Lu Xiangbei's marriage proposal and lured the "wolf" into the house; it was she who knew that Lu Xiangbei's intentions were suspicious, but was always indecisive; Bei's plan was successfully implemented...

All because of her...

"Dad, I'm sorry..." She wanted to cry, but there were no tears, her whole body seemed to be frozen, stiff and numb, only the bursts of pain in her heart reminded her that she was still alive...

Sitting in the study like this all the time, it seems that there is still father's breath in the study, a faint smell of smoke, if there is nothing.

She closed her eyes and breathed, letting the breath seep into her lungs bit by bit, so even her lungs ached...

She didn't know if her ostrich syndrome had happened again. She trapped herself in the small space of the study, isolated herself and all the pain from the outside world, and only wanted to hide in this small space. no longer suffer any harm...

She seemed to be back when she was a child. That year, her mother passed away. She stared at her mother who would never wake up again. She was full of fear. What's the matter, but, everyone is so busy, pulling her back and forth, let her play, don't stay here...

No one would notice her fear, she sat foolishly in the corner alone, hugged herself tightly with her arms, and looked at the world in horror.

Mom won't talk to her anymore. For her, it's the collapse of the whole world. She feels sadder than anyone else, but these people don't understand at all. Why don't they let her stay with her mother for a while?Instead, push her into this corner and endure this collapse alone?She didn't even dare to call her mother again after crying, lest she would be chased away by the adults again, then she would be deprived of even the only corner where she could look at her mother from a distance, so she could only repeat it in her heart over and over again. calling mother...

This scene is an indelible wound in her heart. Whenever she encounters a setback or is hurt, it will emerge from the depths of her memory, control her brain, control her thinking, and leave her with nothing but fear... …

She didn't know how long she stayed in the study, but she just maintained a posture, motionless, time, stood still, standing still on the day when she lost her mother when she was young, her world ushered in another collapse...

Suddenly, there was a loud "bang", and a misty vision appeared in front of her eyes, and her mother was gone!They really took away the only corner where she could see her mother...

Fear seized her heart once again, and she yelled in panic, "Mom...Mom...don't miss...Niannian is afraid..."

Someone grabbed her arm and shouted in Er's ear, "Nian Nian! Nian Nian! It's me! Look carefully!"

She can't see clearly!She can't hear clearly either!All she knew was that her mother would never come back!She was obviously still a mother when she went out, but when she came back, there was only one jar left, and it was said that inside was her mother who had turned into ashes!

She hates them, it is they who pull her and stop her from following the car, otherwise she will not allow them to burn her mother!
"Let go of me! Don't burn my mother! Give me back my mother! Give me back your mother!" She beat and grabbed the person who came, unable to wake up from the horror of the past.

These arms hugged her tightly, warm softness lingered on her forehead and brows, her voice was as soft as the cotton candy she had eaten in her childhood amidst her violence, "Nian Nian, it's me...you look good Look, no one is robbing mom, it's me, it's me..."

This embrace is also very familiar...

This feeling is more familiar...

Stuffed in this embrace, she frowned and began to recover her thoughts. The pain was bit by bit, and she began to recover from the nerve endings...

"Miss, she locked herself inside for a long time. I knocked on the door several times, but she didn't open it. I'm afraid she..."

It was the nanny's voice, she remembered...

No mom, no cremation, dad, dad died...

"No! No! Niannian won't do stupid things...Niannian just wants to hide herself so that we can't find her...Niannian...don't be afraid...I'm back..."

She licked her lips and carefully searched for the cotton candy-like voice in her memory. Suddenly, a fire flashed in her mind...

It's him……

He is back!How dare he come back!

All her strength and fighting spirit recovered at that moment, she pushed him away with all her strength, and what appeared in front of her eyes was indeed that face that could be called a city...

It was this face that confused her and dad...

"Lu Xiangbei!" She squeezed the name through her teeth, "You still dare to appear in front of me?"

She hates this face!Glancing at the scissors on the desk, she grabbed them and stabbed him...

He stared at her in a daze, his eyes were full of pain and apology, he saw that she was too excited, her feet accidentally caught the stool leg, and she was about to fall...
