Chapter 55 The Closer to the Truth
Shen Xian held the photo frame and moved back to the sofa with difficulty.
After regaining some of her senses, she put the computer away. She lay on the sofa and picked up her phone. She compiled a text message and sent it to Tang Yi with her inferences and what she wanted to ask Tang Yi to do.
Since everyone asked her to avoid it for the time being, she should just stay at home quietly.
As a person involved in this incident, if she has no actual evidence to prove her innocence and appears in front of everyone rashly, it will not have any effect on the truth of the whole matter, but it will be easy for someone to take advantage of her.
What's more, Zhang Chi said that she should also believe Gu Chen.
Trust is mutual. Since Gu Chen can believe her for the first time, why can't she believe him for once?
Shen Xian held the photo frame and looked at it again and again, his whole body shrouded in deep sadness.
The phone is still as quiet as ever...
Shen Xian, who was leaning on the sofa, felt exhausted both physically and mentally. Perhaps the medicine had taken effect. She gradually fell asleep holding the photo frame...
After completing the mission, Zhou Mu returned to the city in the evening.
Because he helped Shen Xian repair the doors and windows all night last night, and he still had the spare key to Shen Xian's house in his hand.
The first thing he did after finishing his busy work was to contact Shen Xian, but the call never got through. Only when he contacted Shu Yan did he find out that Shen Xian had been discharged from the hospital and returned home.
So I hurriedly drove to Shen Xian's house, but couldn't get through the phone and knocked on the door, but no one answered.
Zhou Mu was worried that something would happen to her, so he opened the door and went in.
There were no lights on in the room, and the light was very dim. You could vaguely see scattered pill bottles and messy items on the floor.
"Shen Xian?"
Zhou Mu called out, and what he received in response was boundless silence.
His heart skipped a beat, and he raised his hand to turn on the light in the living room. He was stunned by what he saw, and his heart ached.
A slender figure was curled up on the sofa, with long black hair hanging from the low sofa to the ground, messy, with fine hair covering her face. The contrast between black and white made her face look particularly complex. of paleness.
Zhou Mu stepped over the debris on the floor, walked to the sofa and squatted down, carefully checking the situation of the people on the sofa.
"Chen Xian." He whispered, his throat was dry, and his eyes were filled with distress.
Shen Xian's breathing was even. Perhaps because of the sudden strong light, her eyes moved slightly, but she did not wake up from her sleep.
She was just lying here wearing a thin sweater. Although it was indoors, the chill of early winter was already there. The room was not heated yet and the temperature was very low.
Zhou Mu raised his hand and took a blanket from the end of the sofa, preparing to cover her.
As soon as he looked down, he saw the photo frame that Shen Xian was holding tightly in his arms. He hesitated and gently took the thing out of her hand.
Shen Xian's hand moved in his sleep, but finally let go.
Zhou Mu turned the photo frame over and sighed slightly when he saw the photo inside.
That was a group photo of Shen Xian and others when they first joined the team. Everyone was so happy at that time!
There are not many people still in the team now.
There are more people here than you can get together in this life...
Zhou Mu looked at it for a while, then gently placed the photo frame on the coffee table next to him, pulled the blanket away, and covered Shen Xian with it.
He reached out and gently pushed away the broken hair from Shen Xian's face. Her face, as white as jade, looked a little pale under the light. Even in her sleep, her brows were still furrowed.
Zhou Mu was reluctant to move the hand on her head.
After a long time, he squatted on the ground to clean up the scattered items on the ground for Shen Xian. The open medicine bottle caught his attention.
These medicines were the ones he had seen last time.
He looked back at Shen Xian who was sleeping, and there was indescribable bitterness on his resolute handsome face.
Zhou Mu carefully capped the bottles of medicine and put them back one by one into the drawer on the side.
Just as he was putting the drawer back to get it, Shen Xian woke up.
"Zhou Mu?"
Shen Xian opened his sleepy eyes, raised his upper body and looked over, and was surprised to see Zhou Mu.
"you're awake?"
Zhou Mu pushed the drawer back and walked back to the sofa.
"Huh? Why are you here?"
Shen Xian looked at him suspiciously.
Zhou Mu took out the keys from his pocket and put them on the coffee table, "Yesterday..."
He said, pointing to the door and window.
"Oh..." Shen Xian understood and said thank you.
Zhou Mu looked at the things on the coffee table and asked, "How long have you been sleeping?"
Shen Xian struggled to sit up, "Should, all afternoon?"
She casually picked up the oranges on the table and ate them, not forgetting to pass one to Zhou Mu.
Zhou Mu took the oranges and watched as she stuffed them into her mouth one after another. She silently picked up her phone and opened the takeout app. She flipped through it and finally ordered a Huainan beef soup set for Shen Xian.
The doctor said that you should pay attention to your diet these days.
"Shu Yan said you went on a mission early in the morning?"
Shen Xian's mouth was stuffed full of oranges, he was mumbling, his eyes were wide open, and he looked a little cute.
Zhou Muxiao said, "Yes, I called you as soon as I finished the mission, but I couldn't get through, so I just came over here."
Telephone?
right!
Shen Xian quickly put down what he was holding, rummaged around on the sofa, found his cell phone under the pillow, quickly opened it and said, "Mute."
She explained to Zhou Mu while checking the information.
In addition to a few missed calls from Zhou Mu, there are also some missed calls from Chen Nuo on the phone.
When possible, Chen Nuo also sent a message because the call was not answered.
"I have been busy today with the leak of the tender document. Mr. Gu asked you to have a good rest at home. I will notify you if there is any news."
There is another one: "I don't want you to be worried. Let me tell you quietly. This matter may be more involved and will be more troublesome to deal with. The company is still investigating. It is best for you to do nothing now. It is too late. As I said, we have another meeting, and we may have to stay up all night tonight, so you should take good care of yourself."
With Chen Nuo's information, Shen Xian felt much more at ease.
Scroll down, and the last one is from Tang Yi. After Shen Xian's pile of green-framed text, there is only a simple "um" word.
Shen Xian looked at his phone blankly. The involvement is quite extensive?
"What's wrong?"
Seeing Shen Xian dazedly holding his cell phone, Zhou Mu couldn't help but ask.
Shen Xian came to his senses and said, "Oh, no, it's nothing, just a few messages about colleagues in the company."
Shen Xian's smile was forced, and it didn't look like it was nothing.
Regarding what happened in the morning, Shu Yan didn't know much about the situation and only gave Zhou Mu a general idea. Now that Zhou Mu saw Shen Xian's appearance, he hesitated and finally said what he wanted to say.
"Shen Xian, if it's too difficult and dangerous, we won't go."
His voice was very gentle and cautious, which was completely inconsistent with his resolute face and cold temperament.
"Huh?" Shen Xian turned his head leisurely, "Aren't you going?"
"Um."
This time, Zhou Mu nodded firmly.
"Zhou Mu, I know you are worried about me, but I will not give up, let alone shrink at this time."
"But……"
Zhou Mu had never been in the workplace, and he didn't know much about the twists and turns in the workplace, but this was the first time he saw a person in such a situation because of work.
"The more dangerous it is, the closer I am to the truth, right?"
"Zhou Mu, you have to believe me." Shen Xian murmured, lowering his head and eating the orange by himself.
It turns out that the saying that the workplace is dangerous is not just talk.
Not everyone can live a peaceful working life if they do their job safely.
