Chapter 232 Killing Wife
Li Jia tilted her head and was still chatting with the boy next to her, and didn't notice the movement at the door.
"Where's A Fei? Why didn't you come together?"
"He is busy with the exam."
"Then what are you doing here?"
"It doesn't matter if I take the exam or not."
"..."
There was a rare speechless expression on Li Jia's cold face.
"I didn't say that." Chi Yan shook the goblet in his hand and felt strange, "It's so good, what kind of birthday are you celebrating?"
"When I saw the invitation you sent, I thought it was summer."
"It's a group message, you don't have to come."
"Who said I came to your birthday party." Chi Yan touched his nose, "I just dropped in and gave you face."
"After all, you don't have many friends, so I'm afraid of being left out. Look, on a day like today, your 'close' brother didn't even come."
Li Jia glanced at him and said abruptly: "It's not important. My sister will come."
"?" Chi Yan paused slightly and looked over. "Who did you call sister?"
If it were anyone else, he would have thought it was a prank.
But Li Jia's seriousness didn't seem like he was joking.
"Didn't aunt ever mention it to you?"
"..." Chi Yan recalled carefully.
How to say it.
The two families are not close relatives, so his mother and Yu Jingwen did not have close contacts in their early years.
In particular, his mother married in Beijing early and rarely returned to Shencheng.
Later, the two sisters gradually regained contact, starting from the time when Yu Jingwen married into the Li family.
Because he had some business dealings with the Li family, and they were related to each other, he also had Chi Fei, who had also been in contact with Li Jia over the years.
He couldn't be called particularly familiar, but his relationship was definitely better than that between Li Jia and her fake brother.
He thought about it and found out that he had indeed never heard his mother mention that Li Jia had a younger sister.
He had a general understanding of the Li family's trivial matters. Because when his mother has something to do, she treats it as gossip and complains to him.
Especially whenever Li Jia's father remarried, her mother would drag her father with him and scold him together.
My mother has always said that there must be something fishy about the death of Li Jia's mother.
How could he suddenly die of illness at such a young age?
There are no hereditary diseases in the family and no mental illness.
Based on Li Jia's father's attitude towards her, her mother reasonably suspected that he had killed his wife.
Unfortunately, there is no evidence, just suspicion.
It's just a topic of conversation after dinner.
"What are you talking about? When did you have a sister? Kiss? Are you kidding me?"
Li Jia did not shy away from it, "My mother passed away shortly after giving birth to her. This was the main reason for her death."
She suffered heavy bleeding during the delivery and her sister almost died. It took a long time to save her life.
It's a pity that the mother left before she even had time to look at her sister.
He left very suddenly.
Li Jia said to herself: "Not many people know because my sister was replaced by a dead baby by her enemies not long after she was born."
"At first, the family thought that my sister still hadn't come through and left with her mother."
"Later, after investigation, we found out that he had been taken away."
"When we found our enemy, he said he had strangled his sister to death and threw the baby into the sea."
"After a long time, the enemy was overwhelmed and said that my sister was not dead and was sent to a slum in Southeast Asia."
"My father took people to every surrounding country, but he couldn't find my sister."
"It's probably gone. We have thought so for so many years."
"It was also from that time on that my father's temperament changed drastically, as if he was a different person."——
On the other side of the hall, the system synchronized this information to Gu Miao immediately.
Gu Miao frowned, "Why is it different from what I imagined?"
If what Li Jia said is true, we can know from it that her father loved her mother very much, and the two were indeed in love.
But it is a fact that he subsequently remarried frequently, and it is also a fact that he took the son of his first love home to try to inherit the family business.
How strange.
Originally, Gu Miao didn't want to meet Li Jia today, but now, she really wanted to talk to Li Jia.
First, we need to lure Chi Yan away.
She had already been shocked once during the phone call with Jiang Qingshi.
Now seeing their siblings together in person is another big shock.
No wonder he didn't reply to her message.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
While thinking, the figure in front of her felt something, and stopped talking and looked towards her.
Li Jia recognized Yue Song at a glance and immediately put down his wine glass.
Of course, the focus of her gaze was not on Yuesong himself.
If Yuesong comes, then Gu Miao...
His eyes wandered around Yuesong, and soon, his eyes settled on a petite figure behind him.
The last time they met, she compared Gu Miao's figure.
A little shorter than her and thinner than her. Gu Miao has a small frame but very long legs and a well-proportioned body.
So even though she was wearing a mask, Li Jia still recognized her at a glance.
Everyone's physical characteristics are different, and she remembered Gu Miao's characteristics immediately.
Noticing her gaze, Chi Yan looked sideways and followed her line of sight, "Why, have you seen your sister?"
Li Jia asked him to speak carefully, "That's your sister too."
"Tsk." Chi Yan didn't take it to heart, "Have you done DNA testing? You haven't even scratched your horoscope yet, where did this girl come from..."
Suddenly, his eyes froze.
In the corner next to the floor-to-ceiling window, even though he was wearing a light pink professional suit, he still couldn't stop the childishness that hit his face.
But the color of this outfit still suits her very well.
Chi Yan was in a daze for a moment, and then he seemed to remember something the next second, and a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes.
Why is Gu Miao here?
He originally planned to come to Li Jia tonight to say hello and then leave.
Tonight is Christmas Eve, so he can go see her.
Although he might not be able to meet her successfully, he didn't hold out hope, but thinking about it, it was still a different feeling to be in the same city with her, with the distance of thousands of kilometers shortened to just a few kilometers.
It’s like spending Christmas with her.
We can't let her be alone in this strange city.
But I didn't expect... to see it here.
In an instant, the surprise in his eyes was replaced by surprise.
Chi Yan immediately put down his wine glass, without even looking at Li Jia. He adjusted his cuffs and said, "I have to leave beforehand."
Without even bothering to explain or wait for a reply, he immediately walked towards Gu Miao.
Gu Miao had been looking at him and naturally noticed his movements.
Frowning slightly, she said hello to Yuesong and left the front hall first.
In the yard, the lights are brightly lit.
The evening wind in winter is getting colder and colder.
At first, Chi Yan kept a safe distance from her, until the figure in front suddenly disappeared, and he immediately started running to catch up.
At the corner, it was pitch dark, and there was no figure of the girl anywhere.
Chi Yan frowned, his eyes annoyed.
"Hey, who are you looking for?"
Suddenly, a familiar and brisk voice sounded behind him.
