When You’re Gone

Liang Shu's expression was very tranced, her thoughts reacted very slowly, her brain was still digesting his words, but her hand was already stretched towards the bedside table, she carried the bottlenecked and slender vase towards Huo Qiting.

She didn't have much strength, and Huo Qiting reacted quickly, and there was a thick carpet on the ground. The vase fell on the ground and didn't break, except for a dull sound.

Just like her person at the moment.

Huo Qiting gave a tut, bent over to pick up the vase from the floor, and put it on the bedside table again, "What are you angry with me, I said, the one who wants you is never me."

Liang Shu stared at him, her eyes indifferent but lacking momentum. She was actually dizzy, and even at a certain moment she couldn't focus on his face.

"Huo Qiting, you will pay the price." She said weakly.

The man squatted down again, his sight was almost level with her, and then said, "Well, I was prepared for this five years ago. If I say that five years ago, I might still be interested in you and want to use you to threaten Gu Hansheng, but Now, it’s not necessary anymore."

"I know you have not been able to accept Gu Hansheng since you came back, but I can give you a gift."

"what gift?"

Huo Qitingzai carefully stared at her face, curled his lips, "A truth, the truth about Su Yan."

Hearing the words Su Yan, the woman's pupils dilated at an extremely fast speed, with a suspicious expression on her face. Huo Qiting was very satisfied with her reaction and could not help but sneered.

"Sure enough, he didn't confess to you, but he did. Now I tell you that Su Yan is not his white moonlight. I am you and I don't believe me."

Liang Shu trembling eyelashes, looking at him, his voice is very soft, "What did you say?"

Huo Qiting suddenly said with a serious face: "There are several lives between me and him. He believes that the Huo family is the murderer of his father. Of course, it is indeed the case. It is my mother who killed his father."

"Before doing this, my mother was determined to die with him, so she left a recording file with the whole story in it..." Huo Qiting got up and turned her back towards the window. "Su Yan is a child sponsored by her. At that time, she was in Yucheng with my mother, and the recording file was in her hands. After the car accident, she disappeared with that thing."

"Later, Su Yan became a vegetable when he decided to return to China to testify to him. You can think that I did it. I don’t deny... The most important thing for Su Yan to wake up in the past few years, is it just the last? Turn cremation to ashes."

After Huo Qiting finished speaking, he turned to look at her, "He may love you, but he may want a result more, otherwise he wouldn't be so anxious for success back then, losing his wife and breaking down."

Liang Shu looked at him indifferently, as if there was no sadness or joy on his face, but deep in his eyes were full of complex emotions, as wet as the rainy sky of Yucheng.

She said to Huo Qiting, "Murder pays for his life. Your father was killed by you. He is a normal person and will not let the murderer go unpunished."

Huo Qiting raised his brows and didn't care what she said at all. He just said, "What do you know, there are no absolute good people in this world, there are only relatively bad people. Whose hands are clean, you say?"

"Huo Qiting, even if Su Yan is dead, you can't just get away with it." Liang Shu gritted his teeth.

"Really? Anyway, those have nothing to do with you, and you won't have a chance to see it again." His eyes suddenly became fierce, and the corners of his lips were cold and severe.

Liang Shu's heart seemed to be entangled with countless silk threads. He couldn't get rid of it, but he could only let them tighten his heart more and more tightly, until the pain began to slowly spread to the nerves.

She endured the intense dizziness that hit from the depths of her body, and said to Huo Qiting: "He will look for me, just like in the past five years."

Huo Qiting paused slightly with his fingers on the doorknob, "So what if I find it?"

He opened the door and walked out. The people under his staff immediately came forward and whispered a few words in his ear. Huo Qiting looked up along the deck and saw a person standing there, tall and feminine in appearance and temperament. , Even in the light, it makes people feel that he is gloomy.

This person is Lu Jinsheng.

Huo Qiting walked down the stairs towards him, the eyes of the two met in the air, and countless invisible fireworks burst open.

"What about things?" Huo Qiting looked at him.

Lu Jinsheng looked over him to the window on the second floor, the emotions in his eyes were unpredictable, and it seemed to have a lingering hint of silk.

He retracted his gaze, took his hand out of his trouser pocket, and pinched a small black object between his slender fingers. The next second, Lu Jinsheng threw it into the sea in front of Huo Qiting.

Huo Qiting raised his eyebrows and stared at the bottomless blue sea, and said, "How do I know if Mr. Lu still has one hand?"

"Do you think it is necessary for me?" Lu Jinsheng didn't look at him, and walked past him towards the stairs.

Standing on the second deck, Lu Jinsheng turned and looked at Huo Qiting, "Persuade Mr. Huo to go back earlier. This is a hard journey. If it is not necessary, there is no need to meet again in the future."

It didn't take long for the helicopter to pick up Huo Qiting.

It was not until the roar hovering above his head disappeared that Lu Jinsheng returned to the door of the room.

He stood at the door for another ten minutes before opening the door.

But at the moment the door was opened, something hit his forehead heavily, and then he heard the crisp sound of porcelain cracking.

Blood quickly dripped from the corner of his forehead and down the corner of his eye, and half of Lu Jinsheng's vision was blocked.

And Liang Shu’s action seemed to be her limit. She fell into a corner, and the resentment and grief in her eyes were replaced by panic. Lu Jinsheng reflected in his pupils, half of his face was almost bloody, and his face was solemn, like Shura from hell.

Lu Jinsheng raised his hand and wiped the wound on his forehead. The blood stained most of his palm. He didn't seem to care at all. Then he pulled a few pieces of paper from the bedside table and pressed his forehead injury, and then stepped towards the person shrinking in the corner. Go.

Fear gradually occupied the woman's pupils, her eyes widened, and she tried to shrink back, but the space here was so big, it seemed that she couldn't escape.

Liang Shu's eyelashes trembled uncontrollably, tears rolled down the corners of her eyes, and blood was almost bitten from her teeth on her lips, "How could it be you, Lu Jinsheng."

The three words Lu Jinsheng came out of her mouth, which meant gritted teeth and hatred.

However, Lu Jinsheng curled his thin lips, walked to her and squatted down slowly, and stretched his **** hand towards her, his fingertips touched her skin, he smiled, "A Shu, meet again, you Hurt me."

With fingertips across the delicate skin on her face, Lu Jinsheng said, "Look, it's bleeding."

The man's fingers were cold and he was not very active. He scraped off her face, spitting apricots at her openly like a poisonous snake.

She closed her eyes, buried her face in her knees, and screamed in horror: "Lu Jinsheng, don't touch me, you go away!"

Lu Jinsheng paused slightly by her reaction, closed his hand, and calmed down his expression, "Don't be afraid, I won't hurt you."

Liang Shu seemed to have no strength to raise her head, tears soaked her jeans, she thought Huo Qiting would use her to threaten Gu Hansheng, who is Gu Hansheng, he must be able to save her, but she did not expect Huo Qi The court gave her to Lu Jinsheng.

They have been on the sea for many days, and they have changed all the boats of all sizes. To this day, she no longer knows where the people are and whether they have left China a long time ago.

Then can Gu Hansheng still find her?

Before she had time to digest all that Huo Qiting had with her, she encountered the current changes.

I haven't seen her for so many days, is Jiujiu okay? Will she miss her mother?

Liang Shu felt uncomfortable when she thought about it, and her whole body burned even harder. When Lu Jinsheng's hand was stretched out again, she fainted completely.

…

Half an hour after Huo Qiting boarded the plane, he received the news that Huo Qin was in Gu Hansheng's hands.

In the dim private room, Huo Qin and Gu Hansheng were sitting under the lamp, but Huo Qin didn't know that around the private room where she could not see, all the strong men stood.

To a certain extent, Huo Qin was also Huo Qiting's life, but now, his life is pinched in the hands of other people, how could he not be furious?

The call was interrupted by Huo Qin's horrified scream.

He called again, but never answered the call on the other end.

…

Gu Hansheng lit a cigarette and pinched it in his hand. He stepped out of the private room, not looking at the private room filled with women's screams of fear.

Ji Shen then followed in his footsteps and left the private room, but when he went out, he glanced back at the messy sofa. Under the light, the woman's carcass was white and beautiful, like a perfect work of art. At this moment, she was restrained and unable to move. , Let the light of the camera measure her body.

Somewhat tragic.

The door was completely closed, and in the corridor, Gu Hansheng stared at the busy traffic outside.

The man took a bit of a cigarette from his fingertips, letting the smell of nicotine fill his nose, and then turned to Ji Shen and said: "Send those things to Huo Qiting without reservation. If he can't give people safe and sound I brought it back and let him wait for Huo Qin's body to be collected."

It seems like this is the case among men.

You move my weakness, and I will seize the opportunity to move your weakness.

This is the rule of the game.

And the two often do not win or lose, and some are both losers.

Huo Qin screamed hoarse.

She felt that it was ten times more tragic than being humiliated by others. She thought she would never forget the humiliation in her life. Those people were very rough, and her hands were damaged in many places, so she didn’t resist. use.

They only threw a blanket to her after taking the picture. She lay on the sofa like a rag doll, with no extra expressions on her face, only tears rolled down her eyes as if they were endless.

The door of the private room was opened, and a very tall figure walked over in the blurred vision.

It was very open. The man sat down on the opposite sofa. Under the dim light, his fingertips flickered and his thin lips moved.

Huo Qin's ears kept roaring, but he only vaguely heard the words "Waiting for you to collect the corpse".

Huo Qin couldn't help the raging tears. She got up from the sofa, wrapped her blanket tightly and looked at Gu Hansheng, her voice hoarse like a hoarse erhu, she said: "What are you capable of bullying a woman, this method is really mean..."

The man didn't even bother to dress up a peaceful smile, and said coldly and ruthlessly: "Well, it's really mean, so no matter what ending you have, you should remember to go to Huo Qiting."

"He won't do anything to your wife." Huo Qin said.

Gu Hansheng got up and looked down at her, "It's best to be like that."

…

Huo Qiting received the photo, and he smashed the phone to pieces on the spot.

He called Gu Hansheng again, but this time he picked it up quickly.

"Gu Hansheng, you let Huo Qin go, I will give you an explanation of what happened back then." Huo Qiting said with suppressed anger.

"That's another matter," the man paused and said, "I want my person to come back safe and sound, or I will ruin her."

Huo Qiting squeezed the spare machine in his hand, closed his eyes severely, raised his leg and kicked the seat, and said, "Okay."

But soon, he said, "During this period, I don't allow you to move Huo Qin, otherwise, your woman will not think about getting better."

After several seconds, Gu Hansheng said, "It depends on your sincerity."

Pinching the line, Huo Qiting frowned and looked at the endless sea below. The empty sea was terribly quiet and could not even see a ship.

…

Liang Jiujiu has been in Gu's house for more than a week.

With Eucalyptus accompany her, Xiao Bai was also taken to Gu's house, she was quite used to it.

Both Wen Mingting and Liang Qing were not able to treat her as a baby, much more than when Liang Shu was in the zero mansion.

But since Liang Jiujiu grew up to this age, Liang Shu has never left her for so long, not to mention that Liang Shu didn't even call her.

This afternoon the driver went to pick up Liang Jiujiu from school. When he got home, Wen Mingting took her by the hand and took her in and said that she was delicious. Since this little ancestor came home, the chef in Gu's house has changed his way. Make it delicious.

Liang Jiujiu was very satisfied and was very happy every day.

But today she was not in high spirits. Wen Mingting noticed it when she was eating slowly. She asked Jiujiu, "Is it not delicious?"

Jiujiu didn't forget what Liang Shu taught her. She must be polite to others at all times. She put down her snacks, shook her head, and then looked at Wen Mingting pitifully and said, "Grandma, I miss my mother."

Wen Mingting was taken aback, and then he remembered, as if Jiujiu had indeed lived here for more than a week.

It's all because she was just happy these days, and she didn't think about many things in detail.

Liang Jiujiu was in a hurry when he came here. Gu Hansheng brought Eucalyptus with him. Gu Hansheng only made a phone call and asked her to take good care of Jiujiu. Since then, he has only made one call in the past more than a week. There was no more greetings.

But Wen Mingting couldn’t tell Liang Jiujiu about these doubts. She reached out and touched the girl’s soft hair, and comforted: "A Shu and Hansheng may be busy. They finally reconcile, why don’t they make up? Give them more time."

Liang Jiujiu lowered her head and didn't speak. She was a pretty sensible little girl. If she didn't speak up at this time, it showed that she really missed A Shu.

Wen Mingting had to say again, "How about this? Let's call Uncle Gu first and ask what they are doing, okay?"

After a moment of silence, Liang Jiujiu nodded and agreed, "Okay."

Not long after, Wen Mingting made a call to Gu Hansheng, and the other end quickly answered it.

Wen Mingting took the phone to the little girl's ear and asked her to talk to Gu Hansheng.

Liang Jiujiu asked Gu Hansheng what A Shu was doing. Gu Hansheng was stunned for a moment, but he quickly reacted and found an excuse to deceive her.

She returned her mobile phone to Wen Mingting. Seeing that she was a little disappointed, Wen Mingting said a few words to Gu Hansheng himself, but couldn't ask anything, so he hung up the phone without saying a few words.

Liang Jiujiu was not in a good mood this day.

Until the evening, Wen Mingting and Liang Qing took turns to coax her to sleep for a long time. When Wen Mingting saw the little girl asleep, she still clenched her brows. She was a little worried, and said to Liang Qing, "A Qing, it's not early, you Go and rest first, and I will look at her for a while."

Liang Qing worried about Wen Mingting's body and said, "Or I look at her. You should go to rest first. The little girl may not see A Shu, so she is in a bad mood. I will let them come over tomorrow."

But Wen Mingting was still worried, she let Liang Qing go to bed first, and she stayed with Jiujiu.

After more than half an hour, Liang Jiujiu didn't have any major reaction. Wen Mingting tucked the quilt corner for her and did not leave. Instead, he sat down on the sofa next to him and rested with his palms on his face.

In the middle of the night, Wen Mingting was awakened by Liang Jiujiu's heart-piercing cry.

She opened her eyes and realized that the person had reached the bed before she was completely clear, "Jiu Jiu, good boy, what's the matter?"

Liang Jiujiu rushed into Wen Mingting's arms, with tears on his face, crying heartbreakingly, "A Shu, A Shu, I dreamed that A Shu was dead."

Wen Mingting patted her back with his hand to comfort her, "Is Jiujiu having a nightmare? Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, A Shu is fine, she is with your Uncle Gu, don't be afraid, grandma is with you."

"Ashu is gone. I dreamed that she was dead. What should I do? I have never been separated from her for so long. Why did she not talk to me for so long? I'm so scared, I'm so scared that I don't have a mother..."

Wen Mingting was also very uncomfortable by her crying, her right eyelid kept beating, she held the little girl tightly in her arms, "That's a nightmare, let's forget it, if Jiujiu don't worry, we Call Uncle Gu now, don't cry, don't wait for a cold."

Liang Jiujiu nodded while sobbing, and said sadly, "You call them."

…

It was forty minutes after Gu Hansheng rushed over.

He drove here alone and hardly slept this week. The car even rubbed a layer of paint on the guardrail on the way.

He walked all the way into the house. Wen Mingting came out of the side hall to meet him. As soon as he saw him, he let out a big sigh of relief and couldn't bear to slap him on the back. A Shu..."

Wen Mingting stared blankly at the layer of dust she had patted off. She froze, looked at him, and then said in surprise, "How many days have you not cleaned up yourself? What is this dirty like?"

Gu Hansheng had no time to tell her this, so he frowned and asked Wen Mingting, "Where is Jiujiu?"

After he reminded him, Wen Mingting remembered and hurriedly said, "I was crying in the room. She didn't know what was going on today. Her mood has been very depressed. Didn't she have a nightmare just now? She started crying when she woke up, crying to tears Lung, I've been clamoring to find A Shu, and I look so distressed."

She led Gu Hansheng through the side hall. Liang Jiujiu's room was next to her room on the first floor. This was also Wen Mingting's convenience to take care of her.

Wen Mingting pressed his temples and continued, "Liang Qing and Qu Yu are still coaxing her inside, don't tell me, seeing her crying, my right eyelid has been beating all the time this night, and I feel very uneasy. ."

Walking to the door of the room, Wen Mingting suddenly raised his head and asked him, "Where is A Shu? Why didn't she come?"

Gu Hansheng lowered his head, squeezed the doorknob with his fingers, and said, "It's too late, she has fallen asleep, and I can't bear to wake her up."

Wen Mingting nodded without thinking, "Quickly go in and take a look at Jiujiu."

Even at this moment, Liang Jiujiu was still crying, but her voice was much smaller, or perhaps she was too weak to cry. She was nestled in Liang Qing's arms, like a little pitiful.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, she raised her head from Qu Yu's arms and saw that it was Gu Hansheng, the little girl was even more aggrieved.

She groaned, and burst into tears from her arms to Gu Hansheng. Seeing her like this at the moment, Gu Hansheng felt very distressed, and he didn't care whether he was clean or not, so he strode over and hugged her in his arms.

Liang Jiujiu hugged Gu Hansheng's neck tightly, and then sobbed, "Uncle Gu, I think A Shu, where's A Shu?"

After speaking, she looked in the direction of the door.

Gu Hansheng patted her on the back and comforted her with a hoarse voice: "A Shu has been looking for your lovesick godmother these past two days. I will be back in two days. Uncle Gu will be with you tonight, okay?"

"But I just want to see A Shu," she rubbed all her tears and nose on the man's shirt, and said aggrievedly, "I just want to see her, what should I do?"

Gu Hansheng raised his hand and gently wiped away the teardrops on her face, "Look at this late, A Shu must have gone to bed, and we are not good to bother her at this time. I will stay with you first, eh?"

The little girl looked at him with too clear eyes, and Gu Hansheng, who was very insightful to people's hearts, couldn't stand it.

In the past few days, he hasn't slept much, and of course he is often worried about whether Jiujiu will want to find his mother, and worry about whether she is eating here and sleeping well, and all kinds of mental pressure hit him. Living.

Gu Hansheng didn't open his eyes, raised his hand to touch her cheek, but didn't say any words of comfort.

Liang Jiujiu suddenly couldn't help it again. Tears rolled down her eyes like broken beads. She cried and said, "Uncle Gu, I have a nightmare tonight. I dreamed that A Shu fell into the sea. Dreamed that she was dead."

She closed her eyes and cried out of breath, "What happened to my mother?"

Wen Mingting looked very uncomfortable in her heart, her eyes were wet, not only Liang Jiujiu, she was also restless today, and at noon she was thinking about going to the Buddhist hall to study for an hour in the afternoon, but she was delayed later.

Gu Hansheng looked at Liang Jiujiu seriously, and repeated to her again, "I promise, A Shu is okay, what Jiu Jiu needs now is to forget that nightmare and sleep well, okay?"

"really?"

"I seldom lie to children."

…

After sleeping with Liang Jiujiu, Gu Hansheng came out of the room.

Wen Mingting was waiting at the door. She looked at Gu Hansheng's visibly thinned face and the bluish gray under her eyes, and asked him, "Hansheng, tell me honestly, what's wrong with A Shu?"

Children's performance is often the purest. Liang Jiujiu is so abnormal today, Wen Mingting has to think about what happened.

Gu Hansheng closed his eyes and walked a little farther before saying to Wen Mingting, "A Shu has been missing for a week."
