Chapter 648: Two women break up, arrival

~24 min read 4,625 words

The second major event on the eve of the Dragon Boat Festival was that Liu An died.

Or rather, when Liu An was found in a small alley near Wujiaochang, he was already on his last breath. Later, he wasn't rescued in the hospital and passed away.

According to the gossip from the hospital, Liu An was miserable—miserable to the point that it was simply a weakened version of Concubine Qi's final ending.

After the case occurred, the police immediately associated it with Li Guoyi based on Liu An's injuries, but they suffered from not being able to find actual evidence at the scene.

And where was Li Guoyi at this time?

This guy was in the dormitory. He was smoking and playing cards with Zhou Zhangming, Li Guang, Hu Ping, Zhang Bing, and Tang Dailing, playing poker, laughing and cursing, no different from usual.

Seeing Li Guoyi lose one hand after another, losing more than 20 yuan in a row, Zhou Zhangming persuaded, "Old Li, your luck is bad today; don't play anymore. We are embarrassed to win more from you."

According to Li Guoyi's past temperament, he definitely wouldn't listen to persuasion and would definitely shout to fight to the end.

But today's Li Guoyi changed his past appearance, looked at his watch, and then put down the cards in his hand, "Brother Zhou is right; this card can't be played."

As he spoke, this guy took out a pack of high-quality Zhonghua cigarettes from his pocket, opened it, and said to the brothers, "It's a pity that Big Brother Heng isn't in the dormitory, so I can't smoke the last cigarette with him."

Hearing this, the brothers in the dormitory were stunned.

Li Guang asked jumpily, "What last cigarette? Are you going to quit smoking? Mother's! It's not that I'm talking about you, Old Li, you can't quit this cigarette."

Li Guoyi grinned, "Coward! Who said I'm going to quit smoking? I'm going to heaven, hey! I heard there are many beauties in that place."

Zhang Bing, Zhou Zhangming, Hu Ping, and Tang Dailing looked at each other.

Finally, Hu Ping frowned and said, "Old Li, stop talking nonsense; the word heaven cannot be used indiscriminately."

"Hehehe, Brother Hu is right. It's just that my mouth is lacking. Come, this Huazi was specially bought by me; let's taste the flavor together." Li Guoyi gave cigarettes to everyone one by one.

Everyone felt that Li Guoyi was a bit abnormal today, but they didn't refuse and gathered together to smoke.

Halfway through the cigarette, Li Guoyi, who seemed to have foreseen that his time was running out, suddenly stood up, took a stack of books from the head of the bed, first picked up "Water Margin" and looked at it for a while, then threw it into the trash can: "I'm still soft-hearted; I can't be as decisive as Song Jiang and Yang Xiong. It's better not to read this broken book."

Then he picked up "Criminal Law" and looked at it, then threw it aside, shaking his head and saying, "Studied in vain! Studied in vain!"

Finally, Li Guoyi held four or five Buddhist scriptures, touched them one by one with his right hand, and finally giggled, "Hehehe, brothers, when you get promoted and get rich in the future, remember to burn a few beauties for me."

Just as everyone was confused, the dormitory door suddenly opened. A school leader walked in, followed by the counselor Liu Jia, and then a group of police officers.

In the middle, there was also a pregnant woman.

Seeing Li Guoyi, the police spontaneously surrounded him.

The leading police officer pointed at Li Guoyi and asked the pregnant woman, "Is it him?"

The pregnant woman identified Li Guoyi with fear, nodded violently without stopping, stepped back two steps, and said with horror and stuttering, "It, it, it's him!"

Li Guoyi didn't resist at all. Before being taken away, he tilted his head and winked at the pregnant woman, "You are a person with great luck; cultivate the child well."

Criminal law wasn't studied in vain. Originally, Li Guoyi did this thing seamlessly, and the police couldn't even find a trace of evidence at the scene.

Physical evidence couldn't be found, but they found a witness through visits, and the only witness was this pregnant woman.

At that time, Li Guoyi also noticed the pregnant woman who appeared suddenly. When he walked to the pregnant woman, the pregnant woman was scared silly, sitting on the ground shivering, tearful, and so scared that she couldn't even say words of mercy.

But Li Guoyi just stood in front of her for a while and let her go. Because he thought of Le Yao, Le Yao had once had an abortion for him, which was one of the things he regretted most in his life, so he braked when he was most violent and didn't implicate innocent people.

Li Guoyi was taken away, and everyone in Dorm 325 was stunned.

Hu Ping asked the counselor Liu Jia, "Teacher, what law did Old Li break?"

The counselor said, "This matter has nothing to do with you; study hard."

The school leader and the counselor comforted everyone for a while and left.

The dormitory fell into a dead silence. The five big men stood in the center of the dormitory, unable to say a word for a long time.

Later, Zhou Zhangming picked up the criminal law and "Water Margin" from the trash can, and suddenly his heart skipped a beat, "Old Li, Old Li wouldn't have gotten rid of Liu An, would he?"

Hearing this, Zhang Bing, Tang Dailing, Li Guang, and Hu Ping couldn't help but shiver.

The next second, Tang Dailing ran out the door, "I'll go to the male dormitory of the Law School to see if Liu An is there?"

"I'll go with you." Hu Ping chased after him.

After Tang Dailing and Hu Ping left, Zhang Bing said in a low voice, "Actually, Old Li's luck was good today; he caught a lot of good cards, but he played them separately. He let the water go."

Because there were many people and no seats, and Zhang Bing cherished every penny and couldn't bear to play cards, he watched others play from the side.

So every hand of Li Guoyi didn't escape Zhang Bing's eyes. At first, he couldn't figure it out, but now he was sober; Old Li never thought about winning.

Zhou Zhangming couldn't hold it anymore, "No wonder he lost so much; I said Old Li's card skills shouldn't be that bad."

Once some things happened, they couldn't be hidden. Not to mention a living person like Liu An who would never return. Before long, this shocking news spread.

When she learned the news, Wei Xiaozhu was having dinner with Dai Qing in the dormitory; the two women brought it back to eat.

After Liu Yanling ran back to the dormitory from the outside in a hurry to tell the two women the news, only a "bang" sound was heard; Wei Xiaozhu's face was pale, and the bowl and chopsticks in her hand fell to the ground.

Dai Qing and Liu Yanling asked with concern, "Xiaozhu, are you okay?"

Wei Xiaozhu didn't come back to her senses for a long time and said reluctantly, "It's okay."

For the next two hours, Wei Xiaozhu stood by the window, looking at the skyline like a wooden sculpture, without saying a word.

Dai Qing accompanied her silently on the side.

Liu Yanling cleaned up and also accompanied her.

Because they were worried about Xiaozhu, Sun Ye, Zhao Meng, Cai Yuanyuan, and Wei Sisi, who gradually learned the news, all rushed back to Dorm 107 from all corners of the school.

Seeing the worried eyes of the sisters, asking about her well-being, and trying every means to distract her, Wei Xiaozhu was very moved. After a while, she squeezed out a smile and said, "I want to go for a walk. Who will accompany me?"

The women looked at each other, and finally, all eyes fell on Dai Qing.

They unanimously felt that Wei Xiaozhu's words were implicitly said to Dai Qing.

In fact, it was so. In the dormitory, Dai Qing and Wei Xiaozhu had the best relationship, inseparable since freshman year, like sisters.

No, the relationship between the two women should be said to be better than sisters.

Leaving the girls' dormitory building No. 12, Dai Qing asked, "Where do you want to walk?"

Wei Xiaozhu said, "Yanyuan, I want to go to my aunt's place to sit for a while."

Dai Qing guessed it and followed toward Yanyuan.

But unfortunately, Wei Xiaoquan wasn't at home today. Instead, they met Bai Wanying in the rental room on the first floor. The latter was folding paper cranes by the window.

Passing by the window, Dai Qing poked her head and asked Bai Wanying, "Wanying, why did you close the stall today?"

Suddenly being called by name, Bai Wanying, who was engrossed in folding paper cranes, shuddered. Turning back to see that the people outside the window were Wei Xiaozhu and Dai Qing, she immediately said, "You're here, come in and sit. I'm folding paper cranes for Li Guoyi."

Wei Xiaozhu walked into the room, "Have you heard too?"

Bai Wanying was calmer than everyone else. While folding paper cranes, she greeted the two women to pour tea for themselves, "It doesn't matter if I heard it or not. When I learned that Li Guoyi had been frequently going to Jing'an Temple to burn incense for the past month, I expected that this day wouldn't be far off. It's just that I didn't expect it to be so fast; I originally thought it would be summer vacation."

Hearing this, Dai Qing immediately remembered the scene on the bus a few days ago: Li Heng, her, and Li Guoyi happened to meet. On the bus, she asked Li Guoyi several questions about burning incense, but Li Guoyi was giggling, so she didn't take it too seriously.

Recalling the past, the slow-to-react Dai Qing asked Bai Wanying, "Did you really guess it?"

"It doesn't count as guessing, it's just a woman's intuition."

Bai Wanying stated her thoughts, "Li Guoyi is usually giggling, treating everyone with a playful attitude, and facing everyone with a condescending mentality. I never believed he would believe in Buddha. Unless he wanted to do something bad and sought psychological comfort."

Wei Xiaozhu and Dai Qing didn't make a sound, looking straight at Bai Wanying.

Bai Wanying looked up at the two women, "Do you think I'm too cold-blooded? Clearly sensing that Li Guoyi was going to do something bad, but didn't stop him?"

Without waiting for the two women to respond, Bai Wanying continued, "When he went to the braised food shop to help, I persuaded him many times openly and secretly, but the effect was minimal."

"Actually, this is all destined in the dark."

"According to Li Guoyi's personality, no one can stop him. What's more, I have no way to use this groundless woman's intuition to tie him up and limit his freedom. That would be me knowing the law and breaking the law."

Wei Xiaozhu asked, "What are these paper cranes?"

Bai Wanying said, "Just now I took a nap by the window and dreamed of Li Guoyi. He was wearing a burial suit and said to me in front of the window, asking me to fold a jar of paper cranes for him to pray. He said he was rotten to the core in this life and wanted to be a good person in the next life."

Wei Xiaozhu and Dai Qing looked at each other and were silent.

After a long time, Dai Qing asked, "In broad daylight, you have such a dream, aren't you afraid?"

Bai Wanying said, "I heard he let the pregnant woman go; I believe he won't harm me."

Hearing this, Wei Xiaozhu and Dai Qing sat at the desk, and the three women folded paper cranes together.

The glass jar wasn't big; it was the kind of orange canned food. With many people, it didn't take long to fold a jar.

Wei Xiaozhu asked, "How to deal with them?"

They referred to the paper cranes.

Bai Wanying said, "Wait for his seventh day, burn them for him."

This was a bit heavy, and the three women felt breathing difficulties.

After a while, Wei Xiaozhu stood up, "Don't stay in the room, it's a bit stuffy. Let's go out for a walk."

Bai Wanying said, "It just so happens that I want to go to Lushan Village; you push me over."

The relationship between the women was very good, so Bai Wanying didn't have so many twists and turns when speaking, saying whatever she had to say.

Wei Xiaozhu asked, "Are you looking for Li Heng?"

Bai Wanying nodded, "I heard he has a telescope there. I really want to see the vast universe tonight, so there won't be so many miscellaneous thoughts."

Thinking about it, it was true. Facing the boundless universe, the earth was just a grain of sand in it, and people were just dust in the universe. Expanding associations from this, occasionally, one suddenly felt that the joys, sorrows, and joys of the human world were just like that.

The third thing was that Yu Shuheng met Huang Zhaoyi in a high-end brand store in the bustling city.

At this moment, Yu Shuheng had just pushed the door and entered.

And Huang Zhaoyi was checking out, intending to leave.

Then they bumped into each other so coincidentally.

Yu Shuheng glanced at the belt in Huang Zhaoyi's hand and immediately understood: the other party was picking out a birthday gift for Li Heng.

In fact, Professor Yu was also here to buy a birthday gift. But after seeing the belt in Huang Zhaoyi's hand, she instantly lost interest in buying in this store.

Yu Shuheng asked, "Are you free?"

Huang Zhaoyi was a bit surprised, thinking they would just pass by like this, never expecting the one surnamed Yu to take the initiative to talk. She said, "Yes."

Yu Shuheng issued an invitation, "Go to the coffee shop across the street and sit for a while?"

Huang Zhaoyi said, "Sorry, I don't like drinking coffee."

Yu Shuheng narrowed her eyes and looked at her, not believing at all that Huang Zhaoyi didn't like coffee.

Because when Liu Bei went to Yang Pu's new nest to investigate secretly before, she found a lot of coffee beans and a set of tools for grinding coffee in the room.

From this, it could be inferred that Huang Zhaoyi not only loved drinking coffee but also had a lot of knowledge and insights about coffee.

Facing the powerful Yu Shuheng, Huang Zhaoyi wasn't afraid at all. Walking toward the door, she said, "I know you love drinking tea, and I know there is a good teahouse nearby."

Yu Shuheng smiled and followed.

Then Huang Zhaoyi drove a Santana, and Yu Shuheng drove a Mercedes, one after the other to an old street teahouse.

Entering the teahouse, they ordered a pot of Biluochun, and the two women sat across the table.

Yu Shuheng was curious, "You seem to like that Santana very much?"

She knew Huang Zhaoyi, who had four or five good cars, but the other party often drove a Santana.

"Hmm."

Huang Zhaoyi made a sound and said, "The car itself isn't much, but it's very meaningful to me."

Hearing it was very meaningful, Yu Shuheng remembered what Li Heng had once told: his relationship with Huang Zhaoyi was a last resort, and he was drugged by Liu Yue.

Could it be that the relationship happened in that Santana outside?

Yu Shuheng asked, "Does Li Heng like sitting in that car?"

Huang Zhaoyi hesitated for a moment and answered, "It's okay. He doesn't care which car, he is more interested in my body."

Hearing this, Yu Shuheng understood that the other party misunderstood, thinking she wasn't asking about the car, but asking if Li Heng liked sitting on her?

The originally peaceful atmosphere suddenly became tense and full of gunpowder because of this misunderstanding.

Yu Shuheng immediately wasn't that polite anymore, "I heard that you pursued him bitterly in the past without success, all relying on Liu Yue drugging him?"

Huang Zhaoyi asked back, "Have you slept with him yet?"

Yu Shuheng held the teacup with both hands, "What do you want to say?"

Huang Zhaoyi said, "He has been with me more than 10 times, but Liu Yue only drugged him once."

The meaning was very simple: drugging could only happen once, but subsequent relationships couldn't be explained by drugging. The only explanation was that Li Heng fell in love with her body.

Therefore, whether it was drugged or not was no longer important; the outcome was what she wanted.

Yu Shuheng smiled slightly upon hearing this, "I have a habit when eating: I like to eat the bad ones first, and keep the good ones to enjoy slowly."

In other words: Li Heng is just eating the bad ones to open his appetite now; the good ones haven't been eaten yet. When he eats the good ones in the future, he will naturally lose interest in the bad ones.

Huang Zhaoyi just opened fire, and she immediately countered, her words even more ruthless.

Huang Zhaoyi said, "I don't agree with your way of eating. Since I was a child, I have never eaten bad things; every bite is the best."

Don't look at Huang Zhaoyi appearing cowardly and lacking confidence in front of Li Heng, but she was a Huang family woman after all, the most beautiful woman within three generations of the Huang and Liu families. With so many halos on her, how could she be an easy person?

The reason Huang Zhaoyi was humble in front of Li Heng was only for one reason: she loved Li Heng to the extreme, loved him to the bone. Because of the improper position and age problem, she was a bit anxious.

Needle against wheat awn!

The two women from wealthy families both had their own pride. If they didn't break up, it was harmonious, you are good and I am good.

And once they broke up, there was no face to talk about, and no one would be weaker than others in front of people.

Yu Shuheng drank a sip of tea elegantly and said unhurriedly, "Li Heng is indeed the best among men. Not only do you want to eat him, but many women also want to eat him. Have you ever thought about why Liu Yue drugged him before going abroad? Was it really just to fulfill you?"

Huang Zhaoyi asked, "What do you mean?"

Yu Shuheng said, "You know what I mean better than anyone else. Li Heng has a good body and strong ability in that aspect. It's okay for you to eat a bite. But you'd better keep an eye on Liu Yue; don't let the ** scandal happen in your Huang family."

Huang Zhaoyi wanted to counter, but stopped when the words reached her lips. She wasn't stupid, because she had also suspected little Liu Yue's motives.

She had even thought more than once: if little Liu Yue hadn't found her by phone that day, what would little Liu Yue have done?

The answer was almost obvious: little Liu Yue would likely have slept with Li Heng.

The private room suddenly fell silent, and the two women were thinking about their own thoughts.

After a long time, Huang Zhaoyi asked, "You came to me today just for this?"

Yu Shuheng said, "Yes, but not entirely."

Huang Zhaoyi looked at her.

Yu Shuheng said slowly, "You bought a villa on Wukang Road and are neighbors with Xiao Han. Are you betting on Xiao Han?"

Huang Zhaoyi was a bit angry, "You are investigating me again?"

A word "again" not only poked out the past events bloodily but also enlarged the wound now.

Yu Shuheng shook her head and said very frankly, "I did investigate you before, but I withdrew the people halfway. But no matter what, that was my fault."

"As for the villa on Wukang Road, it was a coincidence, because I happened to take a fancy to that house of yours and wanted to buy it, never expecting the owner to be you."

Huang Zhaoyi inexplicably believed this. Although the two women were love rivals and didn't get along, they both had their own pride. If they did it, they did it, and they disdained to lie.

Huang Zhaoyi eased her emotions and asked, "Are you aiming at Chen Laoyezi Ba? Or aiming at Xiao Han? Or both?"

Li Heng was Chen Laoyezi Ba's closing disciple and had close contacts. If he became Chen Laoyezi Ba's neighbor, the benefits would be great.

Yu Shuheng said ambiguously, "I once promised him not to use means against his confidantes. But the premise is that his confidantes follow the rules."

Huang Zhaoyi stared at her eyes, and also understood Yu Shuheng's other half of the intention.

Death stare, Yu Shuheng didn't give in at all and also looked at the other party silently.

At one moment, Huang Zhaoyi sneered, "If I were a few years younger, if you dared to say this to me today, I would tear your mouth directly."

After the words fell, Huang Zhaoyi slammed the teacup in her hand onto the table, grabbed her bag with her right hand, and got up to leave.

Looking at the departing back, looking at the messy tea on the table, Yu Shuheng appeared particularly calm, as if everything was expected.

Calmly drinking the tea in the cup, Yu Shuheng put a banknote on the table and left too.

Yu Shuheng took the initiative to find Huang Zhaoyi today for two purposes:

The first one, to remind Huang Zhaoyi to keep an eye on Liu Yue, whether it was now or in the future, she couldn't relax.

Obviously, Huang Zhaoyi listened to this point.

The second purpose, through the villa on Wukang Road, Yu Shuheng understood Huang Zhaoyi's thoughts—betting on Xiao Han. This was very unfavorable to her.

It was also unfavorable to Li Heng.

In Yu Shuheng's world: Li Heng's love of playing was a fact, and he couldn't change it for a while. Since he couldn't change it, she would silently follow him to protect his safety.

Therefore, she opposed Huang Zhaoyi supporting Xiao Han to stir up the current situation. This would disturb Li Heng's mind, divide Li Heng's energy, and have an immeasurable impact on his golden creative career.

Of course, this was all from Yu Shuheng's perspective.

She didn't know that Li Heng was reborn. She didn't know that Li Heng's writing could be done with ease.

Nor did she know that Xiao Han was Li Heng's official wife in his previous life.

She just simply thought that Xiao Han wasn't as honest as Mai Sui, and simply didn't allow anyone to distract him during Li Heng's best creative age.

If it was said that Huang Zhaoyi putting down her dignity to be obedient to Li Heng and accommodating him in everything was a kind of extreme love.

Then Yu Shuheng, even at the cost of offending Huang Zhaoyi, wanting to give him a peaceful environment, wasn't it another kind of extreme love?

On the other side, Lushan Village.

When Wei Xiaozhu and Dai Qing pushed Bai Wanying to the end of the alley, the small building at No. 26 was locked, and Li Heng wasn't at home.

After hearing the news of Old Li's accident, Li Heng rushed to Dorm 325 to understand the situation.

When he learned that Li Guoyi was taken away by the police willingly, he immediately extinguished his thoughts, extinguished the idea of rushing to Principal Sun's house.

Because the matter was very clear, Li Guoyi didn't resist, and there was a witness, which meant that Liu An's matter was done by Li Guoyi, and Old Li also directly admitted it.

Tang Dailing and Hu Ping returned from the male dormitory of the Law School.

After entering the door, Tang Dailing said with a hoarse voice, "I want to drink tonight; who will accompany me?"

Everyone in the dormitory looked at each other, didn't make a sound, and all followed out of the dormitory, bleakly killing toward the Old Li Restaurant.

During the entire dinner, everyone didn't make a noise, didn't talk about beautiful girls in school as usual, didn't tell dirty jokes, just drank, cup after cup.

By the end, everyone was almost drunk.

At this time, Zhang Bing turned the wine glass upside down on the table, sighed, and said, "I am the big brother in the dormitory, six or seven years older than you. It's my fault for not watching Old Li well, sigh..."

As he spoke, Zhang Bing shed tears.

The most loyal Tang Dailing also shed tears.

The rest didn't speak, and they didn't feel good in their hearts.

Even if Li Guoyi wasn't a good person, they had been together day and night for 2 years, right?

The drinking party didn't know how it ended, anyway, they were all drunk. Those with good alcohol tolerance drank white wine, those with poor alcohol tolerance spontaneously drank beer, and finally, the 6 people helped each other, staggering back to Fudan University.

Entering the school gate, Zhou Zhangming asked, "Old Heng, are you going back to the dormitory tonight? Or going to Lushan Village?"

Li Heng reached out to rub his bulging temples, "I have something to do tomorrow morning, I have to prepare tonight, and it's not too early now, so let's go back to Lushan Village. After this period of time, I'll go back to the dormitory to live for a while."

Living in the dormitory for a while was the request of everyone at the wine table, and Li Heng agreed.

Zhang Bing and the five didn't say a word, personally sent him to the alley entrance of Lushan Village, and watched him enter the alley before returning home.

Step by step to the end of the alley, Li Heng was a bit confused, looking up at the women on the loft.

At this time, Sun Manning, Wei Xiaozhu, Dai Qing, and Bai Wanying were all on the loft of the small building at No. 26, chatting and playing with the telescope.

Sun Manning had sharp eyes, was the first to discover Li Heng, leaned on the railing, and asked with a grin, "Hey! Li Heng, where did you run to? There are so many beauties at home; you wouldn't have gone out to pick up girls again, would you?"

Li Heng rolled his eyes and shouted with drunkenness, "Stop babbling, come down and open the door."

"Oh oh!" Sun Manning said oh twice and ran down to open the door.

Opening the courtyard gate, Sun Manning sniffed, "How much wine did you drink? Why is there such a big smell of wine?"

Li Heng answered, "10 bottles of beer."

Sun Manning circled around him and realized, "Drinking with people in your dormitory? Because of Li Guoyi?"

Li Heng said yes.

Hearing this, Sun Manning stopped teasing him and hurriedly reached out to support him.

Li Heng turned his head to glance at her and said confusedly, "Don't get so close."

Sun Manning whispered in his ear, "Is it because my weight is too sufficient, making you restless?"

Li Heng rolled his eyes again; he was really convinced by this girl. ===== CHAPTER 649 =====
