Chapter 95: The blood stain on the chest

Translator: 549690339

When she got into Huang Dexing’s car, Anran found out that Tong Wenhai was the one treating her to the dinner. To his surprise, Xiao Xiao did not follow him this time. It was no wonder that she had said some strange things at the entrance of the washroom.

The dinner was set at a Chinese restaurant with a good environment. When they arrived, Tong Wenhai had not arrived yet. Huang Dexing asked the waiter to order the dishes first, but he told the kitchen to wait for the notice. In addition, he also ordered a bottle of Maotai. When Anran heard the price, she stared at it in shock.

Tong Wenhai had come alone. When he saw Anran, he was a little stunned. He looked at her with an indescribable strange expression.

Huang Dexing warmly invited him to take a seat. &Quot; director Tong, have a seat, have a seat. Thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to attend the meeting. It’s an honor, an honor. &Quot;

Anran also stood up and smiled at him politely. &Quot; director Tong. &Quot;

Tong Wenhai smiled at Anran, then shook hands with Huang Dexing before sitting down.

Huang Dexing turned his head and gestured for Anran to inform the waiter to serve the dishes. Anran got up and went out, but the waiter wasn’t outside. She searched along the corridor, and only saw the waiter when she was about to reach the hall. She asked him to inform the kitchen to serve the dishes immediately. When she returned, Huang Dexing and Tong Wenhai were chatting and laughing about something.

Anran smiled and nodded at them, then sat down in her seat.

In fact, Huang Dexing’s purpose for asking Tong Wenhai out for dinner today was very simple, and it was just to win him over. Since it wasn’t easy to start from su Yicheng, he could only find another opportunity. Tong Wenhai was originally the director of Jiangcheng’s construction Bureau. Now that the city had decided to develop a new technology City, although they needed to find a general person-in-charge, this was not something that could be done by one person. There were too many interests involved in this, so there would naturally be a lot of people assisting him. Tong Wenhai was in charge of construction, so there was no harm in roping him in.

The dishes were served very quickly. Huang Dexing and Tong Wenhai chatted while drinking, talking about current affairs and politics, and then talking about the development of the technology City bit by bit.

Tong Wenhai had been in this position for so many years, so he had naturally met all kinds of people and things. He was well aware of the significance of tonight’s dinner. They didn’t say too much, only saying 7 points, leaving room for people to guess.

However, based on the words he left behind, Huang Dexing could naturally guess the meaning of his words.

Anran only smiled at the topic they were talking about and didn’t respond. When Huang Dexing spoke, he would always talk about su Yicheng, either intentionally or unintentionally. Anran only smiled and said that su Yicheng was too busy, and that he wouldn’t tell her too much about work, so she didn’t know anything.

......

The meal lasted for more than three hours. When the three of them came out, it was almost nine O ‘clock. Tong Wenhai and Huang Dexing had both drunk, so their cars were left in the parking lot.

Anran said goodbye to the two of them and walked to the side alone. She called su Yicheng, wanting him to pick her up, but the phone rang for a long time, and no one picked up. She frowned and called him again, but still no one picked up.

“Why didn’t you answer the phone? where did you go?” An ran muttered.

“Should we call Special Assistant su?”

“Ah!” An ran was a little frightened and exclaimed in a low voice. Behind him, Tong Wenhai had already come over. At this moment, he was looking at her with a smile.

“Did I scare you?” Tong Wenhai said apologetically as he looked at her.

Anran laughed dryly and shook her head. &Quot; No. &Quot;

Huang Dexing took the lead and left in a car. Tong Wenhai, who was supposed to leave as well, saw Anran on the phone, so he walked over.

“Chief Tong hasn’t returned yet. Are you waiting for the driver to pick you up?” An ran asked politely, the smile on her face deliberately trying to keep her distance.

Looking at her, Tong Wenhai’s expression was a little strange, as if he wanted to say something but didn’t dare to open his mouth. In the end, he looked at her and shook his head lightly, saying, ” “I drank a little too much at night, so I wanted to stand and get some fresh air.”

Anran nodded, thinking about how to make an excuse to leave.

Just as Anran was thinking about leaving, Tong Wenhai, who was next to her, looked at the neon lights on the street in the distance and said indifferently, ” you look so much like your mother. &Quot;

Anran looked at him in a daze and didn’t say anything because she didn’t know what to say.

Feeling her gaze, Tong Wenhai turned his head to look at her. When he looked at her, his eyes were filled with more affection than before. He looked at her as if he was looking at his own child. He asked softly, ” “Your mother must have had a hard time these years.”

“What do you want to say, bureau chief Tong?” An ran looked at him and asked.

Only then did Tong Wenhai feel that he had lost his composure. He quickly turned around and said, ” “It’s nothing, it’s nothing,”

Anran didn’t know what he was hiding from her, but she didn’t want to have too much contact with him. There was always a sense of fear in her heart, and she felt that it was better not to figure it out than to figure it out. He only said indifferently, ” my mother was very happy. Although her family was not rich, my father treated her very well. He doted on her a lot. I think she was happy. Happy. &Quot;

“Is that so?” Dong Wenhai said indifferently. After a long time, she slowly said, ” your father is a good man. &Quot;

Anran nodded. &Quot; my father is not only a good husband, but also a good father. &Quot; Then, she looked at him and said, ” &Quot; continue to enjoy the breeze, bureau chief Tong. I’ll go back first. &Quot; As he said that, he turned around and walked towards the taxi that was parked at the side.

“An ran!” Tong Wenhai called out from behind.

Anran turned her head and looked at him in confusion. &Quot; is there anything else, chief Tong? ”

Tong Wenhai looked at her. He opened his mouth to speak but stopped. In the end, he laughed bitterly and self-mockingly, shook his head, and only said, ” “Be careful on the road.”

Anran looked at him for a while and nodded lightly. &Quot; yes. &Quot; Then, he opened the car door and sat in the car. He told the driver the address and asked him to drive immediately.

In the car, Anran called su Yicheng again, but no one picked up. In the end, Anran gave up, guessing that he might still be in the shower, so she texted him to tell him that she had already taken a taxi back and sent it to him directly.

The neon lights outside the window flickered, and the whole city was showing off her beauty.

The car slowly stopped in front of the building in the community, then he paid the fare and got out of the car. He pressed the elevator and went upstairs. The elevator at night was much more free than it was during the day. He didn’t wait and arrived directly. When he stopped on the 10th floor, he came out of the elevator and walked towards the apartment. At this moment, the door of the apartment was half closed. The light inside reflected the dim light outside. Puzzled, Anran pushed the door open and entered the room. The living room was a mess, and the table was covered in the remnants of the cake cream on the coffee table. Something on the floor seemed to have been broken. Anran stared at it for a while before she recognized the broken pieces as the blue and white porcelain vase that had been placed next to the TV stand.

Anran’s first thought was that a thief had broken in, but this guess was immediately denied, because there were no signs that the door had been pried open. The living room was in a mess, but the cake on the table was thrown so hard that it was unrecognizable. There was also a small amount of water on the floor due to the broken vase, and the roses were scattered all over the floor. In addition, Anran also saw su Yicheng’s phone on the floor. There were five missed calls, and three of them were from her. One of the other two calls was from ye Ziwen while the other was from the landline in the courtyard.

“Su Yicheng?” Anran called out softly, avoiding the broken pieces of porcelain on the ground. She walked straight into the house while shouting, ” su Yicheng? ”

There was no one in the study, no one in the master bedroom, and no one in the bathroom. An ran also didn’t find anyone.

Anran didn’t know where he had gone. He even left his phone at home. Even if she wanted to call him, no one would answer.

Anran was a little flustered. Everything in the house made her a little scared. She didn’t know what had happened tonight, but she couldn’t find anyone in the house.

Sitting on the sofa, Anran’s heart was pounding with worry.

It took her a while to calm down, and su Yicheng’s phone rang at this time. It was a call from ye Ziwen.

When the call connected, ye Zi Wen said bluntly, ” “Ah Luo, why didn’t you pick up when I called you just now? I’m at ‘charming night’ right now. Do you want to come out and give me a chance to buy you a drink? I want to wish you a Happy Birthday!”

So it was his birthday today, that’s why he told her to go home earlier. Was the cake on the table for his birthday celebration? An ran thought to herself.

On the other end of the phone, ye Ziwen didn’t hear su Yicheng’s answer for a long time. He couldn’t help but reach out to look at his phone to make sure that he didn’t call the wrong number, then said, ” Ah Cheng, are you still there? ”

After she came back to her senses, an ran replied faintly, ” “I’m an ran.”

“Uh,” On the other end of the phone, su Yicheng was obviously stunned for a few seconds before he realized that ah Zhen was already married, so it wasn’t strange to hear another woman’s voice over the phone. “Did ah Luo go out for dinner with you tonight?” he asked again. If that was the case, then he really valued his lover over his friends.

Anran looked at the mess on the ground and said, ” &Quot; I don’t know what’s going on either. I just got home and saw that the living room was in a mess, and su Yicheng was not in the room. &Quot;

“Uh,” Ye Ziwen was stunned. She was a little surprised by this answer. “Where did he go? Wasn’t it his birthday today? He didn’t tell you?”

&Quot; I don’t know, I ... &Quot; Anran was just about to say something when she heard someone asking for the key to open the door. She turned her head and looked at the door in a daze.

Su Yicheng opened the door and came in, looking a little tired. He pinched his sore eyebrows with one hand and held the suit jacket he had taken off with the other. A few buttons of his white shirt were unbuttoned at the chest, and the sleeves on his wrists were rolled up high. In addition, Anran noticed that there seemed to be something on the chest of his shirt, a large patch.

She didn’t say anything more to ye Ziwen and hung up the phone. Anran stood up from the sofa and called him softly, ” Yicheng. &Quot;

It was only then that su Yicheng noticed Anran in the room. He was stunned for a moment before he smiled at her. &Quot; you’re back. &Quot;

Anran nodded and handed the phone to him. &Quot; “I did call you and text you, but you didn’t come, so I took a taxi back.”

Upon hearing this, su Yicheng touched her face apologetically and said, ” “I’m sorry. Something happened last night and I didn’t have time to take my phone when I went out.”

“What happened? why did the family become like this?” Anran looked around the house, then turned her head to look at him in confusion. She noticed that there was a stain on the front of his shirt. When she walked closer, she saw that it wasn’t an oil stain or anything else, but blood!

“Why, why is there blood!” Anran was shocked. She quickly pulled him over and checked him up and down. &Quot; are you hurt? ” What would have blood?” What exactly happened that night? why was the house in such a mess? Even if it was his birthday, he shouldn’t have been so violent!

Su Yicheng reached out to steady her shoulders and calm her down. He looked at her steadily and said, ” “I’m not injured, and the blood on my body isn’t mine. Don’t worry.”

Hearing this, Anran finally relaxed and let out a long sigh of relief. After a while, she looked at him and asked, ” “Then what’s with the blood on your body? Also, why is the house in such a state? ye Ziwen just called to say that it’s your birthday today. What, what happened?”

Su Yicheng pulled her to sit down on the sofa and briefly told her what happened that night.

It turned out that today was his 32nd birthday. He had originally wanted to go out for dinner with her, but he did not expect her to have a dinner appointment that night because of work matters.

In reality, he was not a romantic person. On his birthday, in the past, he would just go out with ye Ziwen to find a quiet place to have a drink before going home to sleep. However, this year was different. Another woman had appeared in his life this year, and this woman was very important to him. She was the person he wanted to spend the rest of his life with. In the future, he would spend his birthdays with her every year. So, even though it was a pity that she couldn’t come back earlier to have a good meal with him because she had work, he still went to the cake shop to buy a cake when he came back from work. He thought that it would be good to at least have a piece of cake with her at night.

While waiting for her to come back, he did not stay idle. He went back to the study to deal with a few documents that he had not had time to deal with in the office in the afternoon.

In fact, the municipal Party Committee had been a little busy these few days. Next month, the Anzi project of Technology City would be fully launched. At that time, a bidding office would be formed, and the municipal Party Committee would publicize and attract investment to the outside world. Everything would be fully launched. According to Secretary Zhang’s words, the provincial Office had already approved his appointment. The document would be ready in a few days. By then, he would have a lot of things to do.

Just as he was dealing with the documents seriously, the doorbell rang. He didn’t know who would come in at this time. Actually, when he walked out of the study and saw Ling LAN standing outside the door through the peephole, he couldn’t help but frown. He didn’t open the door immediately-he didn’t welcome her arrival, or perhaps he planned to just leave the room without opening the door and let her feel that there was no one in the room.

However, Ling LAN didn’t seem to be so easy to answer. The doorbell continued ringing for a long time, but he still didn’t open the door. Thus, she directly used her hand to knock on the door, shouting from outside, ” “Ah Luo, I know you’re home. Can you open the door?”

Su Yicheng felt a little helpless. He didn’t want to attract any strange looks because of her, so in the end, he still opened the door and let her in.

Ling LAN smiled and looked at him. She raised the cake in her hand and said sweetly, ” “Ah Luo, Happy Birthday.”

He stared at her for a long time without reaching out his hand or saying a word. He just looked straight at her.

Ling LAN felt a little uncomfortable under his gaze, and her hand was a little sore from holding the cake. She looked at him and said a little coyly, ” “Ah Luo, my hands are very sore. Aren’t you going to take them?”

Su Yicheng just looked straight at her and said with a blank expression, ” “Ling LAN, can’t we not be so bored? What’s the point of doing all this?”

Ling LAN was a little embarrassed by his straightforward words, but she quickly reacted. She put down her hand with a dry smile and carried the cake into the living room. She placed the cake on the coffee table in the living room and opened the box as she said, ” &Quot; I know you don’t like sweet things, so I bought hazelnut cake that isn’t very sweet. &Quot; As she spoke, she cut a piece of the cake with the plastic knife, placed it on a paper plate, and handed it to him. She smiled and said, ” “This cake won’t be very sweet. I tried it when I bought it. You’ll like it.” Looking at him, Ling Lan’s eyes held a hint of pleading as she said, ” “Can you have some? it’s your birthday today. I know you don’t like to celebrate your birthday, but just have a small bite, okay?”

Su Yicheng looked at her and shook his head helplessly. &Quot; Ling LAN, you should go back. I will celebrate my birthday, but not with you. &Quot; With that, she turned around and walked towards the study.

&Quot; did you say that you’re going to spend it with Gu Anran? but you don’t know anything about your birthday, right? also, I know that she won’t be home at night. &Quot; Ling LAN said from behind him.

Su Yicheng turned his head and looked at her. His gaze was so sinister that it made people shiver. He stared straight at Ling LAN and said in a low and unhappy tone, ” you followed Anran? ”

Ling LAN turned her head and didn’t look at her. She only said indifferently and pitifully, ” “I didn’t, but I know she’s not here at night. I didn’t want to ruin anything between you two, so I picked a time when she wasn’t here because I didn’t want her to misunderstand that there’s something going on between us. If Anran were here today, I definitely wouldn’t have come up, but she’s not here today. I came up here only because I wanted to spend your birthday with you. That’s all.”

Upon hearing this, the expression on su Yicheng’s face didn’t change much, and he simply said, ” “No need, you can go back.” After he finished speaking, he walked towards the study room.

Behind him, Ling LAN looked at him. The cake in her hands fell to the ground with a ‘Swoosh’. Tears welled up in her eyes and flowed out. &Quot; why? why didn’t you give me a chance? do I have to go to the 18th level of hell just because I made one mistake? ”

Upon hearing this, su Yicheng stopped in his tracks and didn’t turn around.

&Quot; I really love you. Ever since I was young, you’ve always been the only person I liked. I was too lonely that time. You didn’t come back to see me for so long. When I went to look for you, you kept saying that you were busy. I didn’t know if you were really busy or if you didn’t want to see me because you always treated me indifferently. I felt so insecure. &Quot; Ling LAN slowly opened her mouth and explained everything that had happened that year, ” that day, I was having a big headache because of the shop renovation. During that period of time, you almost never contacted me. That day, Zhou han came to look for me. I said I wanted to drink, so he went to buy a dozen bottles of beer. The two of us just drank like that. I didn’t know why things turned out this way. Perhaps it was because of the alcohol, but I always thought of him as you. However, it was only until you appeared at the door that I realized how wrong I was. I really don’t know what happened.” As she spoke, Ling LAN half-squatted on the ground, her face buried in her palms, and she cried pitifully.

Su Yicheng didn’t look back. In fact, he had always been concerned about this matter, but when he heard her mention it again, he didn’t feel the heartache at all. It turned out that time really was the best antidote, and after a long time, he would forget it.

“What’s the point of bringing up the past? you and I can’t go back to the past. I have my own life now, and I’m very satisfied with it.” Su Yicheng only said this lightly. “Let’s go back. It’s getting late, and I don’t want anyone to misunderstand.” With that, he headed straight for the study room without looking back.

Just as su Yicheng entered the study room, before he could even close the door, he heard ‘Bang Bang Bang’ from outside! It sounded like something had been smashed.

Hearing this, su Yicheng came out of the study and saw that on the floor of the living room, the blue and white porcelain vase was shattered, and the cake on the coffee table was also smashed into pieces. Ling LAN looked at him hatefully and roared at him in excitement, ” why didn’t you give me a chance? how is that Gu Anran better than me? ” I’ve been with you for more than ten years. Do you want to sentence me to death just because of that one mistake? Was the punishment given to me in the past seven years not enough? What else do you want me to do?”

Su Yicheng looked at her coldly and simply said, ” &Quot; it’s too late, Ling LAN. We shouldn’t live in the past. You’re no longer the Ling LAN of the past, and I’m no longer the SU Yicheng of the past. Time is changing, and people are also changing. Why should we cling onto the past? ”

” Stubborn? heh, I’ve loved you for so many years. Even after being separated for seven years, you’re the only one in my heart, and now you’re telling me not to be stubborn? su Yicheng, how could you be so cruel to me? ” Ling LAN shouted at him. She was very emotional.

Su Yicheng only looked at her from a distance and didn’t go forward. After a long time, seeing that she had calmed down a little, he said lightly, ” let’s go back. ”

Ling LAN looked at him. Suddenly, she grabbed the broken piece of ceramic on the ground and pressed it against her wrist. She smiled and said to him, ” “If you don’t want me, then what’s the point of me coming back from America?” As he laughed, he ruthlessly cut the Shard off his wrist. Blood gushed out from the wound.

Upon seeing this, su Yicheng cursed in a low voice, ” damn it! &Quot; She hurriedly ran towards her.

Ling LAN half-leaned into his embrace, a smile on her lips. However, her expression was pained as she said, ” “You don’t want me anymore, so why do you have to keep me alive?”
