Chapter 2218: What Did You Say?
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
Jiang Yao’s strength nearly crushed the phone.
“What did you say? Kneeling? Why didn’t you tell me that before?” Jiang Yao’s body trembled. “You did not mention it before.”
Jiang Yao was on the point of a nervous breakdown. She believed that Zhou Xiaoxia’s family had been murdered and that they had perished as a result of their throats being slit. She had no idea Zhou Xiaoxia’s family had died in such horrible circumstances.
Du Chen was stunned. He slapped his own head in frustration.
How could he have forgotten that he did not tell Jiang Yao about that out of fear of upsetting her? However, he was too horrified to remember it when he received the news. He instantly took out his phone and dialed Jiang Yao’s number.
It was too late for him to retract what he had said.
“Yes, I purposefully kept it from you because you were not feeling well then. I did not tell you for fear of upsetting you. I am sorry, I forgot just now,” Du Chen responded after a brief pause.
“Or you would not have concealed Zhou Xiaocheng’s case from me, right?” Jiang Yao responded with a question. She hung up the phone without waiting for Du Chen to answer and glared at Lu Xingzhi. “‘Are you aware of everything?” “What do you know?” Lu Xingzhi surmised that Du Chen was discussing the
Zhou family’s case with Jiang Yao, but he had no idea what Du Chen had said. He could not hear what Du Chen had said to Jiang Yao over the phone because she was too far away from him when she called.
“Zhou Xiaoxia’s family died in such a horrible way.” Jiang Yao bit her lower lip. “Not to mention Xiaocheng
“I am aware of that,” Lu Xingzhi said. “I told Du Chen not to inform you about it. Do you think I would have told you about that? As for Zhou Xiaocheng, didn’t she die a long time ago?”
Lu Xingzhi had lost contact with them when they discovered that Zhou Xiaocheng’s body was missing. So, he did not know anything about it. He had been recuperating for the past few days, and Du Chen and the others found out about Zhou Xiaocheng. Therefore, Lu Xingzhi had not received any news either.
Jiang Yao was upset, but not because Lu Xingzhi had kept it from her; instead, it was because of Zhou Xiaoxia and her family.
“Qian Yunen removed Xiaocheng’s remains from the tomb and filled it with mud. He posed Xiaocheng’s body, kneeling in front of Chai Xianglong’s grave. Zhou Xiaoxia and her family members were also posed in the same way, kneeling in the direction of Madam Chai and Chai Xianglong’s tomb.’
Jiang Yao leaned against Lu Xingzhi’s bed and murmured, “1 feel terrible. I want to cry, but I don’t want to upset you. Just let me cry for a while.”
Jiang Yao’s controlled sobs burst forth after she said that. It sounded depressing.
Even though she did not appear to be crying, Lu Xingzhi’s heart ached as he heard her sob.
It was as if something was blocking her heart. The feeling of Zhou Xiaoxia and her family suddenly passing away suddenly came back to her. It was a thousand times heavier than before.
Lu Xingzhi felt really dumb. Other than raising his hand to gently stroke her head, he could not find any useful words to comfort her.
He could feel her anguish.
It was the same as losing a comrade.
Lu Xingzhi did not care if Qian Yunen ran to the moon. He would get the chance to kill him as long as he was alive..
