Chapter 61 Suspicion
"Lin Xi: Something happened to Xu Mochen, call me immediately when you arrive in Chengdu."

"Lin Xi: Xu Mochen is in the VIP intensive care unit, and his life is not out of danger yet. Come and see him."

The several messages in a row were all sent by Chen Lu. Lin Xi was so anxious that he immediately called Chen Lu, only then did he learn that something happened to Xu Mochen a few days ago.

Xu Mochen has no family around him, only a staff member who is responsible for helping with everything.And he himself is still lying in the VIP intensive care unit at the moment, not out of danger yet.

When Lin Xi and Jin Yuze arrived at the scene, Chen Lu came forward immediately. Lin Xi learned from Chen Lu that Xu Mochen was found by farmers at the foot of the mountain near the expressway in Shuangliu County a few days ago, because his identity could not be confirmed at that time. The identity information was published in the newspaper, and Chen Lu came here only after seeing the newspaper.As for the person Xu Mochen's family sent to manage things, he also rushed over at about the same time as Chen Lu.

That person was responsible for paying Xu Mochen's medical expenses, and because there was still something urgent to deal with, he asked Chen Lu to help take care of Xu Mochen.

Chen Lu told Lin Xi that Xu Mochen had been sent here for three or four days, almost the day after Lin Xi left Guangxi.

At that time, he was already unconscious and had multiple fractures all over his body. The rescuers tied a brace for him before they dared to carry him to the ambulance.

"Lulu, I can't digest what you said. Have the police been to the scene? What did they say?" Lin Xi calmed down and asked the matter clearly.

Chen Lu sighed: "How else can I say it? He fell from the cliff by himself. His head was severely injured and he lost consciousness. The doctor said that his life may be in danger at any time."

Lin Xi sat on the chair, the hand held by Chen Lu trembled.She has experienced the pain of losing a loved one, and once again faced an accident with a close friend, the scars deep in her heart were uncovered, her heart was touched a lot, and she felt scared from the bottom of her heart.

Jin Yuze, who was watching everything from the side, saw such a weak Lin Xi for the first time, and there was pity in his long and narrow eyes, and he hesitated whether to go to comfort her or not.However, at this moment he received a call from his father.

"I've got the bracelet, let's proceed according to your and Tang Xin's plan." Jin Zhongguo sounded very excited.

Jin Yuze replied softly "I see", then hung up the phone, and looked back at Lin Xi who was still worried, feeling a little flustered in his heart.

There is a huge secret hidden in his heart: from the very beginning, his and Tang Xin's plan was to temporarily separate Lin Xi from Xu Mochen—to transfer Linxi to Guangxi, find someone to attack Xu Mochen, control Xu Mochen, and force Xu Shihua to hand over to him. Out of the bracelet.On the other hand, in order to gain the support of the Tang family, he tried his best to help Tang Xin regain Su Mingyu's heart.He worked hard in Guangxi to win Lin Xi's initial trust. In order to lay the foundation for the plan to split Su Mingyu and Lin Xi, everything will wait for the next step of going abroad to completely split Lin Xi and Su Mingyu.

Everything was realized step by step according to the plan, but Jin Yuze was not as excited as expected. On the contrary, he saw Lin Xi's worry and felt very unbearable.

He finally walked over, patted Lin Xi on the shoulder, and comforted her softly: "Lin Xi, don't worry, I just asked the doctor, Xu Mochen will be fine, you can rest assured."

Lin Xi tried his best to show him a smile, but couldn't hide his increasingly pale face.

"I happen to have some connections in this hospital. I will entrust the best doctor to take care of Xu Mochen. Don't worry too much, he will wake up soon."

"Thank you."

Jin Yuze handed Lin Xi a bottle of water, and seeing her drink it, he pretended to be casual and said, "I know some things are inappropriate to say at this time, but I think it is necessary to tell you that I just received a call from my dad Call, I heard that Xu Mochen has a bracelet on his hand, I think his bracelet caused him trouble."

"What did you say, Xu Mochen has a bracelet?" Lin Xi finally understood the reason, and couldn't help but doubt Jin Yuze. She asked questioningly, "You guys did it to him?"

"Lin Xi, I just learned the news. I'm kind enough to tell you that if you still misunderstand me, it will hurt my heart."

"Before going to the airport, you received a phone call, saying that you were going to follow the plan. Who did you call?" Lin Xi didn't believe his words at all. She had long felt that Jin Yuze planned this trip to Guangxi. It's not easy. When you come back and see something happened to Xu Mochen, it's easy to doubt him.

Jin Yuze was a little disappointed, took out his mobile phone, handed it to Lin Xi, and found the call records of the day of the trip, and the number displayed on the phone was Guangxi.

"I just asked them to arrange for us to visit the factory and receive them. It turns out that you don't trust me at all. I'm very disappointed."

Jin Yuze stood up and walked aside a little angry.

Lin Xi walked to the bathroom with some distraught, and washed his face vigorously with cold water to calm himself down and clear his mind.

A few minutes later, when she came back from the bathroom, it was rare for Jin Yuze to ignore her. Lin Xi apologized to him: "I'm sorry, it's my mentality that's wrong, and I've been doubting you."

"I can understand why you doubt me. You just don't want to doubt Su Mingyu who also wants to get the bracelet, so you point the finger at me. But don't forget, he had a conflict with Xu Mochen because of you. He His motives are much greater than mine." A wry smile appeared on the corner of Jin Yuze's mouth.

"How do you know about this?" Lin Xi couldn't help asking her back.

"It's very simple." Jin Yuze explained: "Before I went to Guangxi, I went to see your grandma, and grandma reported this gossip to me, and then I remembered that Su Mingyu was jealous of Xu Mochen that day, and he was very unhappy after returning home. scene."

"So that's how it is." Although Lin Xi was a little embarrassed, but seeing that the matter was clear, he continued to ask him, "Can I borrow your car?"

"What do you want to do?"

"You said before that Su Mingyu was repairing antiques in Qingcheng Houshan's studio. I want to find him."

"Are you going alone?" Seeing that she did not deny it, Jin Yuze asked her angrily, "In this state, do you think I will feel at ease?"

"There's nothing to worry about, Jin Yuze. In order to earn tuition fees, I went to take the driver's license test early and worked as a substitute driver. Don't worry."

"Although you said so, I don't think your current state is suitable for driving."

"I want to see him alone, and ask the truth about Xu Mochen's injury!" Lin Xi's eyes were firm, and the water stains from washing his face before flowed down his soft hair, there was a kind of fortitude in his strength.

He had no choice but to compromise: "Okay then, I'll tell you the detailed address. Besides, if you have any questions, remember to call me as soon as possible."

After Jin Yuze finished speaking, he handed her the key.

"Thank you." Lin Xi nodded gratefully, took the key, and left quickly.

Jin Yuze watched Lin Xi leave the hospital with a backpack on his back, his figure fell into the shadows, his eyes were deep and complicated, making it difficult to see clearly.

At the same time, in a teahouse, Li Lao, an old man of the Yi nationality, also read the news of Xu Mochen's injury from the newspaper.

A man in a long gown appeared from the door and sat down beside him. Mr. Li poured him a cup of tea and handed him the newspaper.

The long-clothed man glanced roughly: "I already know about this. I asked someone to go to the hospital to inquire about it in the past two days. It is said that Xu Mochen is still in the intensive care unit."

Lao Li nodded with a solemn expression: "The people I arranged next to Jin Zhongguo told me that Jin Zhongguo had already got the bracelet. Xu Mochen was the accident caused by Jin Zhongguo forcibly snatching the bracelet. It seems that after Lin Xi was almost robbed last time , this time the curse is even more serious. Thinking about Xu Shihua's disabled legs, his wife's early death, and his son's current situation, I have to say that he has lived in tragedy all his life... Although I have never been in touch with that couple. The bracelet, after all, is still related to the ancestors of our family, I still hope Xu Mochen is okay from the bottom of my heart."

"Xu Mochen shouldn't die, he is very strong. You can rest assured about that. After all, you didn't take out the bracelet at all. It was obtained by Xu Shihua by improper means. The curse of the bracelet has nothing to do with you. You don’t need to have a psychological burden.” The man in the long coat took the words, and seeing Mr. Li was no longer too sad, he put the compass on the table and whispered, “Mr. Li, the direction of the compass is now aimed at the Jin family. In the direction where it is located, the strongest curse is estimated to appear in the Jin family."

It was four or five o'clock in the afternoon in the tea room, and the number of people gradually increased, and a large number of elderly people gathered, the voices were noisy, and there was an endless stream of tea customers.

The surroundings of the two were very quiet, as if they had a special aura, and the tea guests tacitly avoided the empty seats around them.

Lao Li nodded and sighed: "I hope it's not a child named Su."

"We can't predict this. Also, this is actually relative. Whoever is looking for the four beautiful pictures and antique jewelry wholeheartedly, the jewelry will naturally respond to them. Everything is predestined, and you and I can't change it." The fate of others. In the final analysis, you are nothing more than the promoter of fate."

"Our Li family has withered due to the few antiques in our hands in recent years. After a hundred years, only my generation will be left. This curse is really vicious. Now that the curse has been a hundred years later, it has shown signs of abating, but I guess it's because the antiques haven't been gathered together. This curse can't be dragged on any longer. Cursed antique jewelry will take people's lives sooner or later. According to the speed of Jin Zhongguo and Su Mingyu's search for antique jewels, it is very You will find me here soon, I want to wait for the four pieces of jewelry to be collected and handle these antiques myself."

"I understand." The man in the long gown picked up the tea bowl and took a sip, his expression under the gold-rimmed glasses was solemn: "I will help you get rid of them all together."

"Well, wait for the best time, I will contact you." After finishing his speech, Mr. Li turned to the stage of the teahouse with his teacup in hand.

On the stage, a well-known old man who commented on storytelling from the Sichuan area began to talk about storytelling, and there was constant laughter from all directions.

Mr. Li was affected, and his solemn expression finally relaxed, and he cheered.

It was already four o'clock in the afternoon when Lin Xi and Jin Yuze arrived in Chengdu from Guangxi, and after staying in the hospital for a while, it was almost six o'clock when they set off. There was a traffic jam on the Chengguan Expressway. By the time the car got stuck in the back mountain of Qingcheng, it was already dark.

She ate a bowl of noodles at the foot of the mountain, took a rest, and pulled herself together to drive the car up the mountain.

She rarely drives mountain roads, and it is dark now, and the winding mountain roads are even more steep.On both sides of the road, dense forests further reduced visibility, so she dared to drive up the mountain only because of her courage.

Before going up the mountain, she called Su Mingyu. When Su Mingyu was working at ease, he used to transfer the call to his secretary He Ze's cell phone. He Ze received a call from Lin Xi and said that he would get Su Mingyu to reply to Lin Xi as soon as possible, but in fact, it would take a while. Well, there was no way for him to contact Su Mingyu.The only thing Lin Xi could be sure of was that Su Mingyu was indeed in the studio.

Su Mingyu's studio is located halfway up the back mountain of Qingcheng, surrounded by natural mountains and forests, the air is quiet, and it is one of a row of independent villas, surrounded by small bridges and flowing water, with hot springs attached, the conditions are very good.

Jin Yuze once told Linxi that Su Mingyu's studio has a very special name called "No Decoration".No embellishment or embellishment, close to nature, consistent with the realm of a gentleman pursued by Su Mingyu.

The night wind at the back of Qingcheng was slightly cool, the shadows of the mountains were clear, and the slope was steep. When Lin Xi parked the car in the parking lot, she was already in a cold sweat.

The night wind was blowing, and she couldn't help sneezing—the temperature difference between here and Chengdu made it difficult for her to adapt.But at this moment, the anger in her heart had overwhelmed the cold, and she couldn't care about these at all, and walked down the stone ladder next to the parking lot in the dark.

After passing the stone bridge, there was still a small slope to climb, and it became increasingly difficult to see clearly. Lin Xi had to take out his mobile phone and turn on the flashlight function to illuminate the road ahead, so that he could go down at least.

The villa not far from the end of the mountain road was lit, obviously Su Mingyu was still working.

Lin Xi took a deep breath, stepped on the mountain road, and walked forward, but because she only cared about the road ahead and didn't pay attention to her feet, she stepped on a clump of slippery weeds, her foot was unstable, and she jumped forward go……

"Bang!"
She finally stopped sliding when she hit a rock. When she opened her eyes, there was a cliff beneath her.She gasped and stood up. The sharp pain in her leg made her realize that she almost died under the cliff just now.

Su Mingyu is very focused on the work of restoring antique paintings. A painting is in the process of "repairing", and the repairing process is completed according to the heart of the painting. It took a whole week for this second part to be "made up". Since the painting heart is still there, it is not very difficult for him to make up the surrounding areas. It is estimated that it can be completed in about ten days.

He just started mending for a whole day, using old drawing paper as a base, and then using a brush to paint and mend it one by one. It seems that he is about to mend the eaves of this architectural drawing of the palace. At that time, he heard a knock on the door.
