After swapping bodies, the crazy boss killed the entertainment industry
Chapter 81 Private Detective
He really seemed to be losing something.
"Ah Jin, what are you thinking about?"
Pei Jin came back to his senses when he heard Ning Qinghuan's voice.
A forced smile formed on his lips: "Nothing."
Ning Qinghuan saw this and pretended to be indifferent and asked, "Why is Yun Zhuo with your brother? They look very close."
Pei Jin looked at her in silence, which made Ning Qinghuan a little flustered. She tried her best to calm herself down, looking lonely: "Ever since you broke off the engagement with Yun Zhuo, she has been estranged from me. Even though I explained to her that I only helped you because I owed you a favor, I still couldn't win her back. We used to be good friends who could talk about anything, but now it has become like this, I feel very sad."
Pei Jin twitched the corner of his mouth.
I used to think Ning Qinghuan was kind, but now I suddenly feel that after what they had done, they were not worthy of asking Xu Yunzhuo for forgiveness.
He approached Ning Qinghuan at first only because Xu Yunzhuo introduced her to him as her best friend.
At that time, Ning Qinghuan stood beside Xu Yunzhuo with ease and grace, and her attitude towards him was very natural.
He thought, if he got close to Xu Yunzhuo's best friend, would she stop bothering him? So he started to get along with Ning Qinghuan, and was generous and gentle to Ning Qinghuan in front of Xu Yunzhuo or others.
But he didn't know since when he was really attracted to Ning Qinghuan. He was willing to hurt Xu Yunzhuo, break off the engagement in public to make her lose face, and go with Ning Qinghuan without hesitation.
And from the beginning to the end, he didn't even have a status in Ning Qinghuan's eyes.
He couldn't feel Ning Qinghuan's love for him, it was all supported by his enthusiasm.
His gaze fell on Xu Yunzhuo's profile again.
She was talking to Pei Jiaonian about something, but she suddenly started laughing.
The smile is very bright.
He took a deep breath and replied calmly: "My eldest brother married Xu Yunzhuo."
Ning Qinghuan's hands trembled, and the cup in her hand fell straight to the ground with a crisp sound. Noticing Pei Jin's gaze, she hurriedly wiped the water on the table: "Sorry, I'm just too surprised... I heard Yun Zhuo say before that she was scared when she saw your eldest brother, and I didn't expect her to marry him... Why didn't I see a wedding?"
Pei Jin pretended not to notice her panic, and his voice became even calmer: "They had a flash marriage, and I only found out about it today. After all, she broke off the engagement, and now I have no right to control who she wants to marry."
"Really?... This is also good." Ning Qinghuan said casually.
He glanced at Pei Jianian's table.
They seemed to have eaten well.
Xu Yunzhuo finally finished half of the cherry cake.
Pei Jiaonian called the waiter and packed another piece of cherry cake for Xu Yunzhuo to take away.
She had never seen Pei Jiaonian be so considerate to anyone.
Even when she first met him.
He also had a face that said "don't let strangers in". Facing her cry for help, he frowned and looked very impatient, but he still kicked over the two bosses who tried to take advantage of her and broke their leg bones. In the end, he was able to take her away safely. The hotel manager chased after him to apologize, and even the boss who was beaten dragged his disabled leg and stumbled behind Pei Jianian to admit his mistake.
You see, that's power.
He stands at the top of the power circle in Beijing, and no one dares to provoke him.
She added his contact as she wished, and thought that she could win this man over slowly.
But she didn't expect that he would get married so quickly!
When is it
Clearly, he was against it on the day Xu Yunzhuo was broken off from the engagement and refused to allow Pei Jin to break off the engagement.
Later, he was knocked unconscious by Xu Yunzhuo who rolled down from the upstairs.
So after he woke up, he got to know Xu Yunzhuo because of this incident.
No wonder Xu Yunzhuo called Pei Jin that day and offered to cancel the engagement on the condition that he would meet Pei Jianian.
It turns out that this is where everything started.
That's why Pei Jianian blocked her contact information and ignored her messages.
Because he has formed a new family, a man like Pei Qiaonian, if he likes to mess around, would have been surrounded by women in the past few years, but there is no woman around him and he keeps himself clean.
Then after he gets married, there is a greater chance that he will not look for women outside or even cheat.
Ning Qinghuan clenched her hands under the table into fists. Did she help Xu Yunzhuo by accident?
Without Pei Jin, she got a better man.
In the midst of random thoughts.
Pei Jiaonian and Xu Yunzhuo had already finished their meal.
The two pretended not to see them and left.
Pei Jiaonian really pretended not to see it and didn't completely ignore it.
But Xu Yunzhuo didn't dare to look.
He was afraid that because she had seen Pei Jin, Pei Jianian would think that she still had feelings for him and steal his company's secrets.
Until leaving the French restaurant.
Xu Yunzhuo suddenly stopped where he was, listening to the mechanical broadcast in disbelief.
[Damn, the target's favorability value is 30. ]
Clearly, this favorability value was negative an hour ago.
How come it suddenly became positive and increased so much?
Xu Yunzhuo wondered, was it because she became his sister-in-law?
Are you so happy that you think she can't bother you?
She followed Pei Jianian into the luxury car, and when she saw the car turn around, she wanted to go to Lanhai Villa again.
Xu Yunzhuo didn't want to go at all. That was Pei Jiaonian's territory and she didn't feel comfortable there at all.
So he said to Assistant Gao, "Assistant Gao, can you take me to No. 56 Magnolia Apartment? My house is there."
Assistant Gao was so shocked that he slammed the brakes. He glanced at Pei Jianian in the rearview mirror and saw that he had no expression. He gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, ma'am."
Xu Yunzhuo breathed a sigh of relief.
The carriage was quiet.
Ever since she said she wanted to go back to the apartment she rented, Pei Jianian hasn't said a word to her.
But the cold air was still blowing in, causing Xu Yunzhuo to look at his nose with his eyes and his heart with his nose. Maintaining this posture, he almost fell asleep.
Fortunately, the car stopped and Assistant Gao's voice rang out: "Madam, we have arrived at Magnolia Apartment."
Xu Yunzhuo instantly became alert and opened the car door: "Thank you."
Before closing the car door, she saw Pei Qiaonian's face and happened to meet his cold gaze, which scared her so much that she quickly closed the door without delaying for a second.
Pei Jiaonian looked at the car door speechlessly, his face a little dark.
The next second, the car door opened again, and Pei Jiaonian's expression instantly became better.
He knew that Xu Yunzhuo was reluctant to leave him and wanted to go back to Lanhai Villa with him. He was just playing hard to get just now, wanting him to ask to stay, right?
Oh, women, he knows them very well.
He understood everything, and was ready to give Xu Yunzhuo a way out: "Since you're back..."
However, Xu Yunzhuo was quicker to pick up the cake box on the seat and smiled at Pei Jianian: "I forgot to take the cake. And, take care."
The car door closed, along with Pei Jiaonian's unfinished words.
The words "Since you're back, get in the car" were stuck in his throat.
He stared at the car door, shivering all over.
Assistant Gao was observing his condition in the rearview mirror, and he looked as if he was going to kick the car door down in the next second.
He said carefully: "Boss, the lady has already gone in, shall I take you back first?"
"Heh." Pei Jiaonian suddenly sneered.
Just when Assistant Gao thought he was going to say something harsh.
Pei Jianian gnashed his teeth and said, "I will never buy her a small cake to take away again."
Assistant Gao: “…
Well, that's a very cruel word...
He found it outrageous.
However, Pei Jianian was still angry: "No matter where she goes, I don't really want her to go home with me. This apartment is like a slum. If she regrets not going to Lanhai Villa with me tomorrow, I won't pay any attention to her!"
Assistant Gao: “…”
He took a look at the apartment. It looked pretty good, but the rent was several thousand yuan a month.
But Pei Jiaonian was obviously angry, and he didn't even know it.
"Drive, go back."
After receiving the order, Assistant Gao drove away.
Xu Yunzhuo was traveling into this body and returning to the place where his original body lived for the first time.
This is a world that belongs exclusively to the original body.
The door has facial recognition, so Xu Yunzhuo came in easily.
She turned on the light. The whole house was designed in a simple beige color. The black and white checkered floor added a touch of European style. The house was not very big. It was a very ordinary one-bedroom, one-living room, one kitchen and one bathroom.
Xu Yunzhuo carried the cake and put it on the table.
Because no one cleaned it, a thin layer of dust accumulated on it.
Xu Yunzhuo spent another two hours cleaning the house.
After cleaning, I felt exhausted.
So by the time she checked the message on her phone, it was already half past ten.
Pei Jianian sent her a message: [Have you seen my charger? ]
However, this news was from an hour and a half ago.
Xu Yunzhuo reached out and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
It’s over. Could Pei Jiaonian think that she didn’t reply on purpose?
She edited the message: [On the study table. ]
When the message is sent, there is a big red exclamation mark.
Xu Yunzhuo: “…”
Blocked her because you couldn't find the charger?
Xu Yunzhuo stared at the red exclamation mark for nearly a minute.
She originally wanted to call Pei Jianian to explain, but at this time, he should be working, so forget it, she didn't want to disturb him.
Let’s wait until tomorrow.
Just as she finished the thought, an unfamiliar number popped up on her phone.
Xu Yunzhuo stared at it in confusion for a few seconds before answering the call: "Hello, who is this?"
"Xu Yunzhuo! Where have you been today? Why didn't you go to the company?" Xu Muring's exasperated voice sounded, and it could be heard that she was very angry.
Xu Yunzhuo took the phone away and took another look to confirm that the person was calling from someone else's phone.
She asked, "What's wrong with you?"
Xu Mu Ning didn't get along with her in the first place, so how could he take the initiative to call her? It's like a weasel paying a New Year's greeting to a chicken, with no good intentions.
"Oh, you are so bold that you don't even say hello to your parents when you return to Beijing. You are born by a mother but not raised by her. All the education you have received over the years has gone to waste. I will ask my parents to cancel your card soon, and you can just starve to death on the street." Xu Muring cursed viciously, but it made her feel relieved. She couldn't stop getting excited when she thought that as long as she got Xu Yunzhuo's hair, she could drive Xu Yunzhuo out of the Xu family.
"In a few days, you'd better get out of the Xu family and wander the streets. If you come to beg me, I might even give you a few hundred dollars." She said in a complacent tone.
Xu Yunzhuo was confused by her words.
"Are you sick? Don't come here and act crazy. Take a taxi to a mental hospital, and you'll get better faster."
After saying that, she hung up.
By the way, block this strange number as well.
Whether she goes to the company or goes back to the Xu family has nothing to do with her.
As far as I can remember, my original self didn't like going back to the Xu family.
Father Xu doesn't love her.
Even Mrs. Xu didn't like her.
That place is more like a cage than a home.
If it weren't for my adoptive mother's illness, I would never have moved in.
Think of this.
Xu Yunzhuo took out another 100,000 yuan from her card to pay for her adoptive mother's medical expenses. She would go to the hospital tomorrow to ask if her adoptive mother's paralysis could be cured by surgery.
Then she went to wash up and go to bed.
At the same time, Lanhai Villa.
Pei Jiaonian sat on the bed.
For the first time today, he did not go to the study to work.
His eyes were looking at the black screen of the phone intentionally or unintentionally.
Ok?
Hasn’t Xu Yunzhuo realized that he has blocked her?
Why don't you call and ask him about his situation?
Perhaps he felt that he was waiting too deliberately, so he got up and went to the study to get a book to read while waiting.
He was just waiting for Xu Yunzhuo to come and admit his mistake, not wanting to listen to what Xu Yunzhuo said.
If she called within ten minutes, he might consider forgiving her and rewarding her with another 100,000 yuan.
Pei Jiaonian had a cold face, and time passed by minute by minute.
For the first time, he felt that this big villa was terribly quiet. For him, who had long been accustomed to being alone, he felt a moment of awkwardness.
He didn't hear the familiar sound of the TV in the living room, nor Xu Yunzhuo's laughter. He always felt like something was missing. He couldn't put his finger on it, and his heart felt empty.
However, I waited until eleven o'clock.
There was no trace of Xu Yunzhuo.
Pei Jianian: “…”
He pulled Xu Yunzhuo off the blacklist again to comfort himself.
Maybe you didn’t see it.
Fortunately I didn’t see it.
Otherwise it would be quite embarrassing.
After sleeping well for half a month, he suffered from insomnia for the first time.
He got up to look for sleeping pills, but found only an empty bottle in the room, so he had to look in the medicine box in the living room.
The lights in the corridor were as bright as day, and the dazzling light extended all the way to the bottom of the stairs.
He could see everything around him clearly.
He couldn't help but curl the corners of his lips.
……
The next day.
Xu Yunzhuo still did not go to Xingyue Media, but found a private detective club.
She provided a photo.
The photo was a little yellowed and showed a man.
He is very thin, with triangular eyes, slightly tilted corners of his mouth, a downward arc, a fierce face, a scar under his right eye, and sparse hair.
The photo was spread out in front of the private detective. The detective looked at the photo with a smile on his ordinary and unremarkable features. He pushed his glasses and said, "Miss, do you want us to help you find someone?"
Xu Yunzhuo nodded: "Yes."
"Is this your father, or your uncle? Or maybe a friend? Is he missing, or kidnapped? What do you want us to do?"
Xu Yunzhuo glanced at the photo.
The person above is the original body's adoptive father, Zhang Weiqiang. The book says that he has arrived in the capital during this period and has been asking around for news about his adoptive mother.
Xu Yunzhuo couldn't let this person find his adoptive mother and disturb their peaceful life.
She took a deep breath, the light in her eyes was cold: "I want you to find him and let him die in an accident, can you do it?"
The private detective coughed violently: "Miss, you are going to kill... cough." He lowered his voice: "Murder."
There was no expression on Xu Yunzhuo's face, and his original body's memories were all dark.
Her adoptive father verbally abused and beat her, and tried to violate her on the day she came of age. After she managed to escape, he vented his anger on her adoptive mother, leaving her paralyzed from the waist down and requiring high medical bills to save her life. And yet he was able to do all this and still get away with it.
Xu Yunzhuo picked up the black handbag at his feet, poured out the large red bills inside, and covered the entire table in front of the private detective.
She put her hands on the table and said, "Here is 100,000, which is my deposit. If he dies, I will give you another 5 million. It's just to create an accident, and he deserves to die. If you don't want to, then tell me his location and I will do it myself."
