Chapter 101 A Woman
In fact, Gu Nankai had already noticed the red marks on the woman's knuckles and the back of her hands caused by the hot soup. She must have been in a hurry just now and didn't expect there would be someone at the door, so she bumped into him. Fortunately, he retreated early and only some soup spilled on his clothes, which was not a problem.
"I'm fine, you should take care of yourself first." Gu Nankai finally found an opportunity to push the woman gently. The woman seemed to come back to her senses at this time. The pain on the back of her hand brought her back to reality. She looked at her hand with some trembling, and shook it nonchalantly, as if such pain was meaningless to her.
"You are..." She didn't want anyone to see her vulnerable side, so she subconsciously hid her injured hand behind her back and stopped paying attention to it. Instead, she looked up at Gu Nankai, and then realized that there was someone else. She turned around and glanced at Wu Qingluan, a trace of confusion flashed in her eyes, and her brows frowned slightly.
Wu Qingluan was very sensitive to women's eyes. She clearly felt that the light in this woman's eyes when she looked at her was very unfriendly, so when she frowned, Wu Qingluan took the lead in speaking: "Hello, we are the police."
After hearing this, the woman took a few steps back as if her body had lost weight. The light in her eyes became extremely dim. Her face turned pale in an instant, and she even stuttered as she looked at Wu Qingluan and said, "Police...Police...What are you doing here in our house..."
Her pupils moved a few times in panic, and she bit her bloodless lips subconsciously. Her eyes fell eagerly on the lunch box that had just been placed on the ground. She ran over hurriedly, picked up the lunch box again, and said to Wu Qingluan and the others without even looking at : "Police comrade, I have something urgent here, I...I really have something urgent..."
She said this unconsciously, but her legs seemed to have suddenly lost strength and she could not walk. Gu Nankai and Wu Qingluan quickly exchanged glances, but just when they reached a consensus that there was something wrong with this woman, the woman's hands went weak and the lunch box she had just picked up fell to the ground again. The stainless steel product made a loud noise when it fell on the tiled floor, and with this, all the food in the lunch box spilled out.
When they smelled the aroma, Gu Nankai and Wu Qingluan's first reaction was that this woman must be a great cook.
As this chaotic scene unfolded, all the disguises of the woman seemed to have lost their confidence. She fell to the ground helplessly, staring at the mess in front of her with lifeless eyes. At this moment, she could no longer maintain her long-standing strength.
Gu Nankai and Wu Qingluan looked at each other, and they quickly stepped forward to help the woman up from the ground. Wu Qingluan said in a calm voice in her ear: "Now that things have come to this, let's go inside and talk."
The woman had a decadent temperament all over her body. Now, she got up from the ground with the help of Gu Nankai and Wu Qingluan. She sighed resignedly and gently pushed Wu Qingluan and the others away: "Officer, let me clean up this mess first. It will affect others."
Wu Qingluan and Gu Nankai were slightly stunned . The woman had already swiftly taken out a mop and dustpan from the house, and in the blink of an eye she had cleaned up the mess.
"Come in and talk." Her emotions seemed to calm down a little. She glanced at Gu Nankai and Wu Qingluan and invited them in.
The two of them then entered Ma Zhiyuan's home. As soon as they entered the house, they saw that the house was clean and warm. Wu Qingluan's eyes fell on the coffee table and saw that the originally fresh flowers on the table were a little withered. It seemed that the woman had not had time to take care of it recently.
"What's your name?" Gu Nankai also looked around the house, then set his gaze on the woman in front of him and asked.
"I..." The woman smiled and quickly said, "Jiang Li."
Gu Nankai nodded: "Ms. Jiang, we are here today to inquire about the situation of your husband Ma Zhiyuan."
Jiang Li trembled, a slight panic flashed in her eyes, and she crossed her fingers on her knees. She glanced at Gu Nankai and said, "Officer, what happened to Zhiyuan?"
At that time, Wu Qingluan also sat next to Gu Nankai on the sofa.
"It's like this, Ms. Jiang. We have a case here. The victim seems to have some connection with your husband. We came here today to ask him about the situation."
"Sun Zi Han?" Jiang Li didn't seem surprised at all. After Gu Nankai said that, she naturally said Sun Zi Han's name.
Gu Nankai was slightly surprised and looked at Jiang Li with a scrutinizing gaze. At this moment, the panic in this woman's eyes was gone, and instead there was calmness. Everything that happened just now seemed to have disappeared in this woman's world in an instant. At which moment did she become so calm?
Gu Nankai thought about it for a moment, it seemed like it was when she said those words Sun Zihan.
"You are aware of the relationship between Ma Zhiyuan and Sun Zihan, right, Ms. Jiang?" Gu Nankai straightened himself slightly and asked.
Jiang Li took a deep breath and did not answer Gu Nankai's question. Instead, she nodded to express her opinion.
Gu Nankai did not speak again but fell into a brief silence. Jiang Li lowered her head as if thinking about something. Wu Qingluan glanced at Gu Nankai and winked at her in such a silent atmosphere. Gu Nankai gently shook his head to signal her to be patient.
After a long time, Jiang Li suddenly sighed deeply. She looked up at Gu Nankai and Wu Qingluan and said, "I knew about their relationship a long time ago, but Sun Zihan seemed a little anxious in the past few months. I know that Sun Zihan lives in Jinhai Mingyuan, and I have followed Ma Zhiyuan several times."
She suddenly smiled, looking very lonely, and mocking herself: "But if I want to find someone to blame for this matter, I should find it on Ma Zhiyuan. I have stood at the door of Sun Zihan's house many times and wanted to go in and ask her for an explanation. Or, I have a knife hidden in my bag, and I have also thought about killing this woman who destroyed my family with a knife."
She got a little excited when she said this. She separated her crossed fingers and clenched them into a tight fist. She took two deep breaths before she continued, "But I gave up in the end. I still have my child. He can't lose his mother because of his father's fault. He can't bear to have a mother who is a murderer."
Wu Qingluan looked at the woman who was trying her best to hide her pain and excitement, and suddenly she felt a little distressed for this woman. Judging from her features, this woman should be of excellent appearance. From the first meeting, all her actions showed that she was a very well-mannered woman, including her conversation, which was considerate of other people's feelings. However, she could easily tell that this woman was overworked, from the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes, or the fatigue in her eyes.
"Where is Ma Zhiyuan now?" After hearing Jiang Li's words, Gu Nankai pondered for a while before asking.
Jiang Li glanced at Gu Nankai and told him in a very calm tone: "In the hospital."
Gu Nankai raised his eyebrows to inquire, and Jiang Li quickly explained: "He wanted to divorce me, but I didn't want to. He was injured when we had a fight and has been in the hospital recently."
Gu Nankai and Wu Qingluan realized that Jiang Li must be going to the hospital with the lunch box in her hand.
"Is his injury serious? What I mean is that we can go to the hospital together. After all, there are some questions that we still need to ask him in person." Gu Nankai said quickly.
Jiang Li hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded: "It should be possible, I'll prepare some food and we can go together."
Gu Nankai and Wu Qingluan waited for a few minutes. Jiang Li refilled the lunch box and came out quickly. The three of them went to the hospital together.
