Chapter 729

~7 min read 1,321 words

Regarding Song Ziyi's self-righteousness, Zhao Hongxing just smiled slightly.

Upper class—perhaps Song Ziyi didn't even know that those noble gentlemen and ladies only treated their Song family as a joke and talking point.

And the Song family, including Song Ziyi himself, had always been immersed in this fake life and couldn't extricate themselves, thinking they were upper-class people.

"However!" Song Ziyi took a puff of his cigarette, "That little girl is quite proud. If I pursue her rashly, it might cause her resentment, so I have to think of a foolproof plan."

Zhao Hongxing looked down on Song Ziyi, but he admired this guy's methods of pursuing women.

"My sister is about the same age as her, not even two years younger." Song Ziyi's eyes shone, "If Zhou Anqin can get into that Central Academy of Fine Arts, you find someone to arrange my sister into this school as well, and finally assign them to the same dormitory."

Zhao Hongxing had to sigh that this guy was truly a talent, just not used in the right place.

"No problem!"

"Pa!" Song Ziyi snapped his fingers, "My sister becomes her classmate, or even a good friend; she won't be on guard against me."

………………

June 15, 1993, the 21st day of the fourth lunar month, Monday!

New York, Huaerjie, Zhou Andong left the hotel alone.

It was indeed as Jian Qiu said; he didn't see police strolling around the streets, nor did they come to the hotel to investigate anything.

But in a foreign land, it's better to be careful; in short, being careful is never wrong.

After he finished talking with Lin Benjian, he would leave New York and go to other cities to play, returning on July 3rd or 4th, just in time for Xiao Qin's college entrance exam.

Because it was still early for the appointed time, he wasn't in a hurry, strolling aimlessly on Huaerjie. At 9:50, he walked into the Lead-in Company office building on time.

At this moment, a Mercedes stopped at the entrance of a coffee shop opposite. Tong Xiao pushed the car door and got out.

Her once elegant long hair had become short hair reaching her ears. She was wearing a women's suit on her upper body, a skirt covering her knees on her lower body, and black high heels on her feet.

She looked up at the name of the coffee shop, stepped in high heels, and sat down by the window.

Not long after, another woman appeared at the entrance of the coffee shop, wearing long golden wavy hair, large sunglasses, and bright red lipstick on her mouth.

On her upper body, she wore a white tube top inside, a cropped leather jacket outside, and black trousers on her lower body.

The woman took off her sunglasses, her lips opened slightly, a bubble popped out of her mouth, and immediately after, it burst with a pop.

The pink tip of her tongue reached out and licked her sexy lips, and the bubble gum stuck to it was rolled into her mouth.

Then she waved at Tong Xiao, who was sitting by the window looking at her, and walked in.

Looking at the woman sitting opposite her, Tong Xiao frowned tightly.

"Xia Qing, why did you suddenly appear here?"

Xia Qing took a tissue, wiped her mouth, wrapped the bubble gum in the paper, and threw it into the trash can on the side.

"Came over to relax and see the scenery of America. And suddenly thought of you in New York, so I came over to see you."

Tong Xiao's frown deepened: "Did you retire?"

Xia Qing didn't answer Tong Xiao but looked at the coffee cup in front of Tong Xiao.

"Do you know why you haven't had many friends since you were a child?"

Tong Xiao didn't speak but looked at Xia Qing. Because she didn't get an answer, her heart suddenly tightened.

If Xia Qing hadn't retired but suddenly appeared here and found her, this must be big trouble.

Xia Qing smiled slightly: "Because you are too stingy. We agreed to meet, you arrived first, but you only ordered one cup of coffee. Obviously, this is not treating me as a friend."

Saying this, she raised her hand to call the waiter and said in English: "A cup of coffee, no sugar."

After the waiter brought the coffee, Tong Xiao finally spoke: "You found me, what exactly is the matter?"

Xia Qing held a spoon and stirred the coffee in the cup slowly: "Didn't I say it? I haven't seen you for a long time. Knowing you were here, I came over to see you and reminisce."

"I have nothing to say to you." Tong Xiao stood up and was about to leave.

"Look!" Xia Qing wasn't in a hurry, "Still that impatient temper; you don't even say you'll change it."

Tong Xiao snorted coldly, picked up her small bag, and walked away.

Xia Qing said lightly: "I know the real cause of Jiang Wei's death."

Tong Xiao's body trembled, and she turned back suddenly.

Xia Qing pointed to the chair opposite: "Sit!"

Tong Xiao returned, sat on the chair, and stared at Xia Qing with her eyes fixed.

Xia Qing picked up the coffee cup and took a sip: "Jiang Wei was a spy!"

"Impossible!"

Tong Xiao stood up suddenly, then sat down with a thud, her face instantly turning pale.

"You lied to me, right?"

"Do I need to wrong a dead person?" Xia Qing shook her head slightly.

Tong Xiao closed her eyes, and it was a long, long time before she opened them: "That waste Feng Duo, hit and killed Jiang Wei—was it intentional or unintentional?"

Xia Qing looked at Tong Xiao: "You know the truth, you know Jiang Wei deserved to die, and your heart knot should be untied. Why do you have to get to the bottom of it!"

Tong Xiao said stubbornly: "Tell me, Feng Duo hit and killed Jiang Wei—was it intentional or unintentional?"

"Sigh!" Xia Qing sighed, "You are still so fond of drilling into the tip of the horn."

Tong Xiao stared at Xia Qing, her eyes very cold.

Xia Qing looked very helpless: "Feng Duo was intentional, because while Jiang Wei was in love with you, he was also unclear with another woman."

Tong Xiao asked coldly: "Who is that woman?"

"Yin Hongyu!" Xia Qing spat out a name.

Tong Xiao was stunned, then started laughing, as if relieved, as if released, as if mocking herself; many emotions were displayed in this smile.

Yin Hongyu was Feng Duo's sister-in-law; no wonder, after Feng Duo hit and killed Jiang Wei, Feng Duo's elder brother got a divorce.

Suddenly, Tong Xiao felt cold all over, shivered violently, looked at Xia Qing with her eyes, and her eyelids twitched wildly.

Jiang Wei was a spy; the family, including her grandfather, certainly didn't know. If they knew, they would definitely have told her.

However, Xia Qing suddenly appeared in New York and made an appointment to see her; it certainly wasn't for the bullshit reminiscing.

Because the two of them had no old times to reminisce about at all, and she even told her this matter; it certainly had a purpose.

Tong Xiao wasn't stupid; on the contrary, she was very smart. She realized that the Tong family was in trouble.

Thinking of this, Tong Xiao took a deep breath, trying to keep herself as calm as possible.

Xia Qing took another sip of coffee: "This coffee is really bitter; I still prefer tea."

Tong Xiao looked at Xia Qing speechlessly. You were the one who wanted coffee without sugar, and you still blame the coffee for being bitter.

And you came to find me just to tell me that coffee without sugar is bitter?

Xia Qing put down the coffee cup: "Your elder uncle has likely been bought by spies."
