Chapter 1213
“Naturally I brought it with me, but I have some doubts I want to ask you about.” Some doubts I had thought about for a long time and couldn’t really figure out.
He nodded, “Just ask!”
“Earlier in Jiangcheng, that box you auctioned off was your grandfather’s?”
He nodded.
I paused for a moment and said, “Did he always have it, or did someone else give it to him later? Can you help me ask Grandpa Mu if he knows a person called Shen Linfeng?”
He originally smiling face, somehow suddenly sunk down, with a few unspeakable cold, I can not help but feel the temperature around some low, can not help too thin rub face rub arms.
Looking at him carefully asked, “What’s wrong?”
For a moment, he collected his face and looked at me, “Your grandmother’s name is Shen Linfeng?”
I nodded, remembering that he had also spent time in front of my grandmother’s tombstone when he was at the Jiangcheng cemetery, and couldn’t help but say, “Mu Shen, I’ve always felt that your proximity to me seems suspiciously deliberate.”
I thought he would more or less stall, but I didn’t expect him to just look at me and nod, and speak, “Well, the first time we met, it wasn’t at the cemetery, it was in the capital, but I noticed you at that time, but you didn’t.”
I froze, not intending to talk to him in detail about those past, my attention shifting to my grandmother, I looked at him and said, “So, you knew my grandmother, and so did Grandpa Mu, right?”
He nodded and smiled indifferently, “Not only did I know her, I knew her very well.”
I faintly stared, waiting for his next words, but he seemed to have no intention of continuing, just speaking, “Give me the box.”
I gave him the sandalwood box I had brought with me, originally wanting to ask him something about my grandmother, but he didn’t seem to want to talk about it, so I didn’t say anything more.
I just had doubts in my mind, I didn’t seem to know him as well as I thought I did. A lot of the time, I always felt that he was close to all of us, very close to many of us, obviously a son of a large family, but he didn’t have any of the faults of a wealthy family, he was involved and helpful in many things, as if he was a part of our lives.
But often, I felt that he seemed too far away from us, that there was so much about him that we didn’t have the means to possibly understand.
He looked down at the box in his hand, examined it, probably thought there was nothing wrong with it, raised his eyebrows at me and said, “I don’t know much about your grandmother, I want this box out of pure curiosity, doesn’t Fu Shen Yan know you gave it to me?”
I shook my head, “He knows!”
He frowned slightly, looking a little puzzled, “He didn’t say anything?”
I shook my head and looked at him, “What’s wrong? Is there something wrong?”
He shrugged his shoulders and didn’t say any more.
Chapter 1214
After eating, there was nothing to do, so I drove straight back, and just as I arrived home, Fu Shen Yan called, his voice low and introspective, “Home yet?”
I nodded my head and looked at the time, it was already afternoon, he should be getting off work soon.
I couldn’t help but say, “Are you coming back?”
“Yeah, I’ll be back in a bit, miss me?” His voice was as nice as ever and I couldn’t help but blush slightly.
Speaking into the phone, “What do you want to eat tonight? I’ll cook.”
He seemed to be thinking hard and said, “How about eating you?”
This man ……
I sounded a bit puzzled for a moment and hesitated for a moment before speaking, “Are you Sun Xiaoxiao’s mother?”
The other party answered a few times, and from the sound of her voice she seemed to be on the verge of tears.
After a moment’s hesitation, I said, “Auntie, I said I would try my best to help you if I could, but the police haven’t come up with a result yet, so we’ll talk about it when the result comes, okay?”
“Why haven’t they come out? The police gave us the autopsy report a long time ago, if you don’t want to help us then just say so, just think of dragging on like this, when the time drags on and our Xiaoxiao is cremated, so that when we say nothing, you will bite the bullet and conclude that Xiaoxiao committed suicide, right?” Sun Xiaoxiao’s mother was a little agitated, her words laced with accusations and mistrust.
I frowned, I really didn’t know about Sun Xiaoxiao’s autopsy report yet. Calming down slightly, I spoke, “Auntie, please calm down first, I really haven’t seen the report yet, so, you wait for me to ask about the situation first, and then we can discuss it, okay?”
The other end of the phone was silent for a while and said, “Okay!”
I hung up the phone, I was a bit tired, sometimes being soft-hearted really isn’t a good thing, with a sigh I called Chen Yi, luckily the call was answered in no time.
“Madam, hello!” Chen Yi’s usual straightforward greeting.
I went straight to the point and said, “Special assistant Chen, has the autopsy report on Sun Xiaoxiao come out yet?”
“It’s out, the police side gave the result as suicide!”
I said, “Is the evidence conclusive?”
“Well, the broken steel pipe at the point of the fall was broken by Sun Xiaoxiao herself, she had seen a psychiatrist before and was diagnosed as having mental problems, she must have wanted to commit suicide for a long time but couldn’t let go of her daughter and parents, that’s why she never did.”
I frowned, “Then why did she suddenly decide to kill herself again?”
Chen Yi sighed, “She had previously bought an accidental death insurance policy, that policy has been in effect since last month, if it is concluded to be an accidental death, the beneficiaries of that insurance are her parents and daughter, plus our company’s payout, her family should be able to live a good life, at least they don’t have to run around for a living.”
So Sun Xiaoxiao had done all the math before she jumped off the building.
It’s just that she probably didn’t expect the police to investigate in such detail.
It was no wonder that Sun Xiaoxiao’s mother had suddenly called to ask me to save them, so I guess she knew what was going on and called.
I nodded and hung up the phone and called Sun Xiaoxiao’s mother. I could hear that she was very anxious, and I couldn’t tell her clearly over the phone, so I said I would go to the hospital tomorrow to talk about it.
It was night and Fu Shenyan came home.
The dinner table.
I almost took all the dishes I could give him. He looked at me and put down his chopsticks, his gaze slightly averted, “Say, what’s the matter?”
