Chapter 12 The Scarlet Light

"Four years of classmates, we are very passionate. Today is our first party eight years after graduating from university. No matter where we return, we are still young..."

Lan Hao stuttered a little two minutes before the start of the speech, and he didn't dare to contact He Zhi. After being stared at by his fiancée, he finally regained his former style of university grass, and spoke in a sturdy manner.

His fiancée stood up amid the applause of everyone's applause and smiled. She touched her slightly raised belly with both hands. It seemed that she had been pregnant for four or five months.

Lan Hao’s efficiency is no less than He Jing’s!

He Zhi's eyes passed through the pink rose bushes and stared at Lan Hao's smug smiley face.

The focus of everyone's topic has returned to the theme, and they used tea instead of wine to toast Lan Hao, wishing him a happy father again after scoring twice.

Lan Hao put down the teacup and finally failed to avoid the gaze that He Zhi cast. He Zhi and the next seat were sorry to go to the bathroom, so he got up and took another look at Lan Hao.

Lan Hao immediately lowered his head and looked at the dish in front of him. From the corner of his eyes, he followed He Zhi out of the private room, stood up and told his fiancée to go outside for some breath, and left the table quickly without waiting for his fiancée to speak.

“Don’t there be a bathroom in this room?”

Lan Hao's fiancée flattened her mouth and stared at the door with alert eyes.

"He Zhi likes to look in the mirror. The mirror in the large bathroom outside can look at her whole body. I also went out to smoke a cigarette. This room is too hot."

Ke Yang laughed and left the table. He could feel that Lan Hao's fiancée secretly breathed a sigh of relief. After just over ten minutes of contact, he had already understood that Lan Hao and He Zhi had a story. It would be strange if the two of them went out together and not aroused the suspicion of everyone here!

He Zhi walked out of the room and stopped for a while, and sure enough, she heard Lan Hao's footsteps. She did not look back and continued to walk deep into the corridor, and stood near the corner of the bathroom.

Lan Hao took a few steps and turned around and almost collided with He Zhi.

"Why are you divorced?"

Lan Hao was about to open his mouth but He Zhi asked first.

"He Zhi, don't get me wrong. I really want to be good to He Jing. Even for your sake, I have to take care of He Jing for the rest of my life. But, alas!"

Lan Hao sighed and immediately talked about his first marriage with He Jing. He Jing paid attention to life taste and romance, but Lan Hao was just a young man working alone in Guangzhou at that time. He Jing didn't care about Lan Hao's poverty and whiteness, but she needed Lan Hao's constant companionship and care.

At the beginning, Lan Hao was able to meet He Jing's requirements as much as possible. Since he started his business, he has devoted all his energy to work and spent less and less time at home. He Jing suspected that Lan Hao did not love her and had other women outside. As long as Lan Hao was at home, He Jing would get angry with him and ask him to swear to only love her and ensure that there were no other women outside.

"It's difficult to start a business. You don't know how embarrassed I was at that time. I was exhausted from working outside, and I was even more exhausted when I got home. But I still loved He Jing, because she asked for divorce and Doudou's custody. I didn't agree, so she went to my company to argue. Later, I really had no choice..."

Lan Hao spread his hands and looked helpless.

"Congratulations on being the boss."

"I'm not a big boss, I'm just a small company with six or seven people. You know that I have always liked the cultural industry. Although I can't make much money in cultural and creative development, I'm very happy. Now the company is basically on the right track. By the way, He Jing's remarried husband has also planned my company."

"He Jing is missing, the police should have looked for you, right?"

He Zhi's expression was unpredictable.

Lan Hao was stunned and immediately said that he had looked for it. After the divorce, he had no contact with He Jing and could not provide any clues.

"He Jing has no friends. If she runs away from home, she should have no place to go except your cousin's house. But why did she run away from home? That Wu Tongzhou is more in line with her aesthetic than me, and can accompany her every day."

Lan Hao's mouth unconsciously raised, with a hint of gloating.

"Lan Hao, the house you live in is under He Jing's name, right?"

"Yeah, ah..."

Lu Lan was immediately embarrassed.

"Please vacate the house and give you a week."

"Why did you ask me to buy the house? He Jing and I divorced, and she didn't say she wanted to go back to the house."

"You should understand if He Jing doesn't understand. That house is He Jing's pre-marital property. If you don't understand it yet, you can consult Zuoan."

After saying that, He Zhi turned around and left. At this moment, she felt like a rock fell into the ground. The beautiful first love she once felt was just a self-deception. If Lan Hao had to do anything for her, he would not accept He Jing's pursuit...

He Zhi rushed out from the corner of the corridor, and something caught her feet.

"Shh--"

Ke Yang reached out to hold He Zhi's waist and took back his stretched foot. He leaned against the corner and listened to He Zhi and Lan Hao talking, but he didn't expect He Zhi to leave so quickly.

"Let's go."

What should be done is broken, and it doesn’t matter if you stay there any longer. Others have been classmates for four years, but she only has two years.

Everyone cares about her just to see her and Lan Hao’s jokes. Everyone seems to want to see Lan Hao regret missing her again.

Ke Yang turned around and saw Lan Hao coming, who was a little lost, and waved to Lan Hao.

"He Zhi has something to do, please say hello to everyone."

Lan Hao subconsciously said "um" and watched He Zhi and Ke Yang leave, his eyes suddenly felt sore.

He Zhi's mood returned to calm when she got on Ke Yang's broken jeep.

Ke Yang handed over the information about Wu Tongzhou to He Zhi, and added that Wu Tongzhou was dressed up by his mother as a girl since childhood. Wu Tongzhou loved his mother very much and gained his aesthetic taste. After his mother disappeared, he suffered from depression and took a year off from school in his hometown to improve, and continued to complete his studies.

As soon as Ke Yang finished speaking, his cell phone rang. Xiao Nan called the phone, and she asked Ke Yang to come over and help.

Ke Yang did not avoid He Zhi when he answered the call. He Zhi could hear it clearly. It turned out that Xiao Nan was Ke Yang's senior sister, and the two worked together for a while.

He Zhi wanted to get off the car and go back to Furongzhang Villa by herself. Ke Yang hurriedly stopped her. He lived near Furongzhang Villa. He went to help tomorrow morning, and now he is sending her home full-time.

"Today, a female corpse was found by the lake in the first phase of Furongzhang villa."

"Oh, that must be a headache-inducing corpse!"

Ke Yang increased the accelerator and the broken jeep made various sounds on the Ringcheng Expressway.

Zuoan stood at He Zhi's door, watching her quickly pack her suitcase and come out, trying to step forward and pull her, but she didn't know what to say.

When He Zhi entered the door, she had made it clear that she had to move out tonight.

Friends are friends, and it is not good to live together by a lonely man and a widowed woman, and in the end, it may not even be a friend.

He Zhi's words were neither light nor heavy. Zuo An understood that he was no longer able to turn the tide, and He Zhi didn't even give him the chance to send him out.

He Zhi pulled her suitcase and walked out of the yard. Ke Yang immediately came forward and took it to the back seat of the broken jeep.

"You can tell me where you want to move, right?"

Zuoan's tone was no longer pitiful with a bitter face.

"I'll send you an address tomorrow. I'll treat you to dinner when it's free."

He Zhi waved to the left bank.

"I'll invite me!"

It seemed that the deflated balloon was full of energy again, and Zuoban suddenly smiled.

Under the dim street lights by the lake, a broken jeep is moving forward bravely like a monster.

He Zhi stared at the dark villa in the mountain shadow ahead and suddenly saw a little scarlet light.
