There were constant voices in the tavern, many of them were chatting with Cheng Zhi, it was very lively.

Huo Linyuan has been silently helping Cheng Zhi, taking care of Cheng Zhi so that she does not overuse her right hand.

The night was busy until nearly nine o'clock.

The two used the remaining ingredients in the tavern and ate something briefly.

As if affected by the environment, Cheng Zhi's appetite was more normal than before, and Huo Linyuan finally relaxed a little bit along with it.

After dinner, they walked slowly back to their residence.

Cheng Zhi leaned on Huo Linyuan's shoulder, holding one of his arms with both hands.

Talk about the things I encountered when I first came to Hong Kong.

Say only good things.

It seems that it is not for him, but for himself.

After this night, Cheng Zhi tried her best to cheer herself up and let herself think about running the tavern every day.

After a few days of busy work like this, the days passed peacefully and steadily.

That night, Huo Linyuan received a call from his subordinates, saying that the little policeman who was secretly investigating Cheng Lingshan insisted on seeing him because it was a very important matter about the murder case.

Cheng Zhi took a shower and was dozing off next to him.

Hearing Cheng Lingshan's name vaguely, he opened his eyes.

Sensing her mood swings, Huo Linyuan hung up the phone.

"Is she still alive?" Cheng Zhi asked, with hatred in his eyes.

Huo Linyuan looked at her for two seconds, lied, hugged her tightly, and said to her: "Even if I die, I will not let her find peace."

Cheng Zhi tried her best to calm down those negative emotions, slowly bent her legs, and leaned towards him with her knees hugged.

"The murder...what happened?"

Huo Linyuan hesitated.

Taking advantage of the opportunity to say that Cheng's mother's death had other secrets back then, it would unravel one of her knots in his heart.

But will she be stimulated again?

And when he was silent, Cheng Zhi felt something was wrong

In the past few days, he followed her in everything, answered every question, and communicated with her as much as possible, never like tonight.

"Is it about the past?" she asked.

Huo Linyuan didn't deny it, but said, "I'll talk about it after a while, okay?"

Since it was about Cheng Lingshan and Zeng, Cheng Zhi became persistent and pulled his sleeve, "Tell me?"

Huo Linyuan frowned slightly.

"Linyuan?" Cheng Zhi slowly sat up straight and looked into his eyes.

"You are so worried, things are very important to me, aren't you?"

She grabbed his wrist and shook it, then knelt up and kissed his face.

"Tell me."

Huo Linyuan sighed softly, hugged her and sat on him, and first talked about the basic situation of the murder case.

After a pause, he said, "The dead doctor may have been instructed by Cheng Lingshan to tamper with your mother's medicine..."

With a shock in his heart, Cheng Zhi's hands and feet felt cold instantly, "You mean, my mother was killed by Cheng Lingshan?"

Huo Linyuan tightened his arms, "Probably."

"Mom used to be so good to her!" Cheng Zhi suddenly struggled, overwhelmed by overwhelming resentment.

Huo Linyuan held her in his arms.

"Why did she die so easily! She still brought my baby! Why!" Cheng Zhi struggled a few times, unable to move, she could only bury her face in his arms and cry bitterly.

Hugging her tightly, Huo Linyuan endured bursts of heartache, and slowly raised his cold and gloomy eyes, "Don't worry... don't worry..."

Cheng Zhi cried for a long time that night, and Huo Linyuan kept hugging her quietly.

It wasn't until dawn that Cheng Zhi was exhausted and fell asleep.

Woke up again at noon.

Huo Linyuan was working next to him, the light was dim, and his silhouette became deeper and deeper.

Cheng Zhi turned her face to the side and looked at him quietly until he realized it.
