C570 Her Husband Is Still Here?
Min Huaicheng's sudden question stunned Shen Xining.
Shen Xining also carefully sized up Min Huaicheng, but she was very sure that she had never seen this man before.
Perhaps Min Huaicheng also opened his mouth out of courtesy, so she could only answer with a smile.
"Director Min, you are too polite. I, I look familiar to most people."
"No, your eyes are very beautiful." Min Huaicheng was still staring at Shen Xining, trying to remember where he had seen her before.
But before he could remember, Su Ci blocked in front of him. His expression was not very good either. He understood that Su Ci was jealous.
"Hahaha, let's go. Since it's on the way, why don't we have a cup of tea together?" Min Huaicheng was very optimistic about Su Ci. A man who valued relationships wouldn't be bad.
Su Ci looked at Shen Xining and only nodded in agreement after considering her health.
After all, the mountain was relatively cold here. Shen Xining shrank her shoulders when the wind blew. It could be seen that she was a little cold. If she ate something hot now, it would be even better for her.
As for going to the cemetery, it was not that different.
The three of them went to the villa together. A pot of tea table and pastries. The tea fragrance immediately filled the surroundings.
Min Huaicheng took a sip of tea and looked around. He could tell that this was his first time coming here. This made Su Ci feel very strange, as if he was telling Shen Xining that her mother was here to talk about business.
This place was too remote. The manor did not rely on the residents to earn money. It mainly sold tea leaves. There was no need to talk about business while drinking tea in the manor.
Min Huaicheng seemed to be looking for something here. As for Shen Xining's mother, he had no idea.
Su Ci sniffed the tea fragrance and said calmly, "Director Min, you did not come so far to drink tea, did you?"
"Haha, you saw it." Min Huaicheng did not hide it. Instead, he was very honest, "Actually, I came for... a friend. She left some things here. I heard that besides the tomb, there is only this manor. So I think there might be some clues here."
More than ten years ago, Min Huaicheng came here because he took the wrong path. He met Ye Huiqian who was injured in the grass. Now he knew that Ye Huiqian really wanted to find her daughter, so he came here to try his luck. But he didn't want to spread the news.
"Friend?" Su Ci knew that Min Huaicheng was lying, but he didn't expose the truth. He said coldly, "This manor has existed for a long time. What exactly has it been hiding? Perhaps it is waiting for someone to uncover it."
Min Huaicheng looked at Su Ci with appreciation. He knew that he couldn't hide it from Su Ci, but he admired Su Ci's propriety. It would save him a lot of time to talk to such a person, because he would only listen to the most important part.
Min Huaicheng smiled and said, "Drink some tea."
"Sorry about that." Shen Xining got up, held her stomach and said, "I, I'm going to the washroom."
Pregnant women always wanted to go to the bathroom.
Su Ci nodded at Shen Xining, but his eyes were more concerned. He seemed to have seen through Shen Xining's purpose.
Just as Min Huaicheng had said, apart from the cemetery, there was also the villa. Shen Xining's mother had come here before the accident. Shen Xining must find out what her mother had done here.
Shen Xining patted Su Ci's hand and left the seat.
After going to the washroom, Shen Xining walked out. The air in the mountains was clear but contained the chill of the early winter. She shrank her neck and walked towards other places.
After walking around, she saw two aunties pushing the small cart.
"Huh? Miss, why are you here? Are you lost? " The auntie asked passionately.
"I, I'm just taking a walk. The scenery here is very good, very good" Shen Xining smiled.
"We only have the scenery here. It has been more than 20 years since we were here. There is only the scenery left." The auntie laughed loudly.
"Twenty years?" Shen Xining quickly walked in front of the auntie and said excitedly, "You, you really have been here for so long?"
"Yes, miss. Is there something you need?" The auntie stopped laughing.
"I, I want to ask if there was a car accident here more than ten years ago? There is no other place here. Do you still remember?" Shen Xining looked at the auntie in front of her with expectation.
The two aunts looked at each other. One of them, who was slightly fat, hit the person beside her. " Oh my, how did you forget? At that time, the car accident caused a ruckus here for a long time, but it ended up with nothing. I originally thought that since the wife's family was so rich, then the family would definitely investigate to the end. I didn't expect that in the end, there wasn't even a letter to ask, and then they were simply buried."
"Yes, yes, that's her. Do you know her? She came here to talk and talk about work before the car accident. Do you remember who she came with?" Shen Xining asked with a stutter.
The two aunties thought about it and said, "I remember the lady you mentioned, but she came alone. Because we don't have tea harvest season here, very few people come, so I remember it very clearly. She was sitting alone by the window, thinking about something. She kept looking at the time and finally left with a solemn expression. "
"Yes, yes. I remember when she left, she said that the time was up."
"She was alone?" Shen Xining found it hard to digest what the two aunties said, "Impossible. My, my mother would not lie to me. She said that she would help me celebrate my birthday after meeting the client. Why did she lie to me? "
"Are you the daughter of that lady? No wonder she kept saying happy birthday to her phone and secretly wiping her tears. " The auntie said.
Shen Xining could not help but cry when she heard that.
"Miss, don't cry. A dead person cannot be revived."
"Thank you." Shen Xining took a deep breath and turned around to escape.
She calmed down outside for a long time before she returned to Su Ci's side in a daze.
Su Ci saw this and immediately held her hand tightly. "What's wrong?"
"I'm a little tired." Shen Xining lowered her head.
Su Ci could clearly feel Shen Xining's unusual behavior. He apologized to Min Huaicheng, "Director Min, sorry. We will leave first."
"Go back. It will be very cold in the mountains when it is dark. Go back early." Min Huaicheng did not seem to have any intention of leaving.
"Goodbye."
Su Ci left with Shen Xining first.
Once in the car, Su Ci handed the handkerchief to Shen Xining. "It feels better to cry."
"My mother lied to me! She did not come here to see the client at all! She lied to me! " Shen Xining cried out.
"Maybe there is another reason." Su Ci patted her back.
"What did she hide?"
"We will find the reason." Su Ci comforted her.
Shen Xining frowned and nodded.
...
Villa.
Min Huaicheng wanted the waiter to pour him another pot of tea. He did not expect that there were only a few waiters here because there were not many guests. When the waiter went to the washroom, he could only find a replacement auntie to make tea for him.
Fortunately, the auntie had been working here for a long time and was good at making tea. She quickly served Min Huaicheng a pot of tea.
"Thank you."
"You're welcome, sir. Is there anything else you need?"1
"I want to ask you something. Did a car accident happen here many years ago?" Min Huaicheng asked.
"Yes, we had a car accident here. It seemed to be caused by a slippery road in the rain. We thought the wife and the driver were dead."
"Madam?"
"Yes, the wife of a rich family. Her husband came to ask about it. Later, the matter was left unsettled."
