Everyone stopped talking.
Usually, Xie Jingchuan would not appear at such an occasion.
He didn't say that he would come over when Zhao Yang called just now.
When the crowd started gossiping, they felt even more carefree.
But it was heard.
This situation was not very good.
"All of you, men, why are your mouths so broken?"
Zhao Yang came out to smooth things over, "These people always talk nonsense when they drink alcohol, you are an adult with a lot of wine, don't take it to heart!"
"What did you guys say about Song Youran just now?"
Xie Jingchuan's voice was cold and detached, her emotions were so faint that it was shocking.
No one said anything.
At a gathering hall with over a hundred people.
Silence.
"What is there to not tell Director Xie?"
Some people stood up from their seats, "I particularly want to ask Director Xie when you are so ruthless as to not go and collect the corpses. who didn't even care about the love that Song Youran had for you in the ruins, that he almost lost his life? "
Someone signaled for the man to stop.
"That's the private matter of others, don't get involved??"
That's right, Song Youran is no longer around.
Those people exchanged words.
Every word was like a bucket of cold water pouring down on one's face.
Xie Jingchuan supported himself on the table with one hand, almost losing his balance.
"Jing Chuan??"
Zhao Yang immediately reached out to support him.
Xie Jingchuan's face turned green and white, "You all... You all know about it? "
No one answered.
When the crowd saw his reaction, no matter how slow they were, they could tell that something was amiss.
Someone said, "At that time, we were just curious about why you suddenly ended up with Shi Wei??"
"When we recovered from our injuries, we heard that you and Shi Wei went abroad to study for a few years. No one can really say that anymore."
"If I didn't suddenly see those photos from before today, I wouldn't believe that what Old Li said was true??"
The picture in the ruins was the best proof.
No matter how much others said, it couldn't compare to what he saw with his own eyes.
But at the time, no one mentioned it.
That's not right.
At the time, Shi Wei had said that the address of Sichuan City had left a huge shadow on her and that staying at home would make it impossible for her to sleep.
He might as well go abroad to study, change the environment, and ease down.
At that time, Xie Jingchuan had no doubts about him. It was only a few days after his injuries had healed, and he hadn't even seen the people from Chuchu City or the people he had met previously.
They had already gone to the other side of the ocean.
More than four years had passed.
His relationship with his former classmates had become increasingly distant. After returning, everyone was working hard for their career. When meeting people, they would always take care of them, and business matters would never be mentioned.
The surroundings were extremely noisy.
Xie Jingchuan did not stay for long and walked out with large strides.
"Jing Chuan!"
Zhao Yang chased a few steps, and reached out to stop him, "What are you doing? How long ago was that? And those people still took it out to look! They didn't even say anything ten years ago, but now each one of them is even more ridiculous than the last."
"This state of yours??"
Zhao Yang couldn't even say that he was abnormal and paused for a bit.
Xie Jingchuan suddenly stopped and looked at him, "Do you know as well?"
"I??"
Zhao Yang didn't know what to say.
"It was so messy back then. Every single one of them was covered in dirt and grime. Who can tell who it was? If it wasn't for the photo that was suddenly shown today??" I always thought that the one with you was Sven."
Xie Jingchuan did not say a word.
He went downstairs and drove away.
Zhao Yang stood in place, vaguely having a bad premonition.
At first, everyone was curious why Xie Jingchuan was suddenly together with Shi Wei.
So many people had feelings for the young master of the Xie Clan, and many of them were rich and famous. Although they were good-looking, Shi Xiuxiang wasn't particularly good, and his family was in a mess with a bunch of high quality goods.
No one could understand what Xie Jingchuan was thinking.
Others might not know it, but he knew it.
Xie Jingchuan said: He will use the rest of his life to protect and care for that person who accompanied him through the ruins for 46 hours.
His heart was moved. Sometimes, it was only for a moment.
What family background and appearance, none of them were important.
Now...
Everything was different from what they had expected.
Zhao Yang had a kind of faint premonition.
Late at night.
In Shi Wei's house, a few brightly dressed women were holding red wine glasses, talking and laughing merrily.
"Song Youran that woman is finally dead. Is it still far from your day of becoming a Mrs. Xie?"
"That woman really deserves it. She forcefully dominated Xie Jingchuan for so many years, and I heard that after her death, she couldn't even find her corpse. This is retribution!"
"Speaking of which, when will Xie Jingchuan marry you?"
Shi Wei took a sip of his wine."I'm not in a hurry. What are you guys in a hurry for?"
Before she could finish.
The room was suddenly kicked open.
An angry Xie Jingchuan walked in with large strides.
The few women were shocked, the red wine glasses in their hands became unsteady and two of them fell to the ground.
The cracking sound was especially distinct in the middle of the night.
Shi Wei stood up weakly, "Jing Chuan, you suddenly came??"
She had not finished a word.
The man lifted her up in one go. His voice was shockingly low as he said, "Ten years ago, when you were in the ruins, what did you tell me?"
