Chapter 833: Saying One Word and Meaning One Mind
"It's over?" Sheng Xiangsi looked at him, with a vague premonition, "Why is it over?"
"Acacia."
Fu Hanjiang raised his eyes and met hers. "Don't be anxious. Just listen to me slowly."
"Okay, you go ahead." Sheng Xiangsi nodded, her expression and tone very calm.
Fu Hanjiang frowned slightly, and said in a soft and slow voice, "Yao Leyi has withdrawn the lawsuit."
Those few small syllables were like a heavy hammer, hitting Sheng Xiangsi's heart again and again.
For a long time, she didn't say anything and just stared at him without blinking.
This look made Fu Hanjiang feel uneasy.
"Ah."
Suddenly, Sheng Xiangsi laughed abruptly, "She withdrew the lawsuit? Why would she withdraw the lawsuit?"
His eyes narrowed as he guessed, "Did you do anything?"
"..."
Fu Hanjiang's expression changed several times and he had difficulty speaking.
He held her hand tighter, "I promised her that I would arrange for her to go to Minnesota."
As soon as he finished speaking, Sheng Xiangsi's eyes suddenly dimmed, without a trace of light.
"You promised her?"
She pulled her lower lip, half-smiled, "Don't you know what she did?"
The voice was calm, without any ups and downs.
"..." Fu Hanjiang was silent.
The next second, Sheng Xiangsi suddenly raised her voice, pulled her hands away from his palms, and grabbed his collar!
Staring at him with angry eyes.
His voice was hoarse, "She is the murderer! The murderer!"
"I know!"
Fu Hanjiang gently clasped her wrist, forbearingly and lowly said, "But, Xiangsi, what I want is for you to be safe! Please consider yourself first, okay?"
"I am fine!"
Sheng Xiangsi's eyes were slightly bloodshot, "I'm still alive and well! But Ranran..."
“You’re not good!”
Fu Hanjiang's eyebrows were twisted into a knot, and he interrupted her, "You are not well! You are still sick!"
Even now, at this moment, she still has a low fever!
And, "Xia Meng's confession is very unfavorable to you! If the case is formally submitted to the court, it will be very troublesome!"
"trouble?"
Sheng Xiangsi sneered, "I told you, I didn't do it! There's nothing to be afraid of!"
"..."
Fu Hanjiang choked and spoke earnestly.
"But do you understand? You need to rest and recuperate!"
"I don't need it!" Sheng Xiangsi raised her face slightly, her eyes firm and without hesitation.
"I can't just let Yao Leyi go like this! It's her fault that I'm like this now! I was lucky enough not to die! But Bai Ran... is gone! That was a life, she was my friend..."
After saying these words, he was obviously exhausted, his breathing became rapid, and his face began to turn pale.
Fu Hanjiang hurriedly supported her. He had his own considerations.
Reason with her, he analyzed.
"Listen to me, we know what Yao Leyi did, but..."
"The evidence the police currently have is not enough to convict her. If even the police can't convict her, she's not worth you sacrificing yourself!"
He met her eyes, "You are the most important to me!"
"If you keep going like this, your body will collapse! Also, Junjun... you're not at home every now and then. Can you hide it from her for a day? Can you keep it a secret forever?"
Every word and sentence was written with her in mind.
Sheng Xiangsi was stunned and looked at him silently, her eyes never blinking for a long time without uttering a word.
Seeing her like this, Fu Hanjiang was inexplicably frightened.
"Xiangsi, what are you thinking about?"
Sheng Xiangsi looked at him, suddenly smiled, and murmured softly, "Are you really doing this for me?"
"?" Fu Hanjiang was confused and didn't understand what she meant. "What?"
"Or……"
Sheng Xiangsi half closed her eyes, raised her eyebrows and asked, "Actually, you can't bear to part with her? Don't want her to get into trouble?"
The sound gradually became clearer.
"Your so-called saving me is just an excuse for sending her away, right?"
"!!"
Fu Hanjiang was shocked, "Lovesickness!"
Understanding what she meant, his eyes were gloomy as if an inkstone had been overturned. He held her hand and tightened it suddenly, with uncontrollable force!
How could she think so?
He shook his head in fear, "No! Xiangsi, you can't think of me like this!"
"Then what do you want me to think?"
She stood up suddenly and waved him away.
Her breathing was heavy, and the look in her eyes as she looked at him was a little vague.
"I'm obviously not guilty! She's the one who's guilty! She's the murderer! She's hurting me time and time again!"
Looking at him, I stepped back.
"Now, you say that you should let her go in order to protect me? That's ridiculous! Haha..."
Burst out laughing.
"Listen for yourself! Is this reasonable?"
"Acacia!"
Fu Hanjiang stood up with her, walked closer to her, and stretched out his hand, trying to hold her.
"Investigating the case is the police's job!"
He tried hard to make her understand, "Don't you also know that Yao Leyi did so much in collusion with Lu Liren? Now Lu Liren's whereabouts are unknown, and there is insufficient evidence to directly point to Yao Leyi! The police have no way to deal with it... There is really no need for us to continue to tangle with her!"
Every time he took a step forward, Sheng Xiangsi took a step back.
"Be obedient!"
Fu Hanjiang had no choice but to coax her in a low voice, "Leave professional matters to professionals! Yao Leyi has committed a crime, the police will investigate, and the law will judge her! You are not needed! Protect yourself first!"
He raised his hand and tried to hold her back.
"But you let her go!"
Sheng Xiangsi shook her head, her eyes red. "Will she come back after she leaves? No! She won't!"
For example, Bao Min, after leaving the country, has not been found to this day!
"You also said..."
She took a deep breath, her lungs feeling cold. "Aren't you protecting her?"
Tears flowed from the corners of her eyes, "Fu Hanjiang! Why... can you say one thing and mean another!?"
After saying this, he suddenly turned around and ran up to the second floor.
"Acacia!"
Fu Hanjiang followed closely behind and immediately caught up.
However, it was a step too late.
With a bang, the door of the master bedroom was slammed shut in front of him!
"Lovesickness..."
Standing outside the door, Fu Hanjiang lowered his head, at a loss for words. He could only repeat it over and over again.
"Believe me, I really am doing this for you..."
inside.
Sheng Xiangsi leaned against the door, listened to his voice, her body trembled slightly, and a silent smile overflowed from her lips.
Is it?
Can she believe it?
...
the next day.
Sheng Xiangsi got up with Junjun. The mother and daughter went downstairs hand in hand and did not see Fu Hanjiang.
"Acacia."
Mu Yun took the initiative to explain, "Master Jiu is going to Lin City today. He left at seven in the morning and will probably be back at noon."
"understood."
Sheng Xiangsi nodded casually, picked up Junjun and placed him on her little chair.
He patted her head gently and lovingly, "It's time for breakfast."
"Mom eats too!"
"Okay."
Afterwards, after the teacher came and settled Junjun down, Sheng Xiangsi looked at the time and instructed Mu Yun.
"I want to go out."
"where to?"
"Go see Bai Ran."
Mu Yun was slightly startled. "Okay. I'll go ask the driver to drive the car out."
"Ah."
Sheng Xiangsi changed her clothes, picked up her bag, and waited at the door. Her cell phone rang, and it was a message from Fu Hanjiang.
[I can be back at noon. I didn't have lunch with you and Junjun this morning, so I'll make it up to you at noon.]
She finished reading it with no expression on her face, turned off her phone and put it in her bag.
