After rebirth, the paranoid boss dotes on her

"Master Zhan!"

Xiang Yuan suddenly pushed open the door of Gu Jingzhan's office and walked in hurriedly, his face pale and his tone solemn.

Gu Jingzhan frowned slightly, a hint of dissatisfaction flashed in his eyes, and asked in a deep voice: "What's the matter that makes you so flustered?"

Xiang Yuan's larynx rolled.

Facing Gu Jingzhan, he suddenly didn't know how to say this.

Seeing Xiang Yuan hesitated to speak, Gu Jingzhan said impatiently: "If you have something to say, just say it, don't hesitate."

"It's... it's about Madam." Xiang Yuan stammered, "Madam... something happened."

Hearing this, the tip of the pen in Gu Jingzhan's hand paused.

He raised his head suddenly, his expression filled with a hint of nervousness and uneasiness that was difficult to conceal, "Qiaoqiao? What happened to her?"

"Ma'am, she..."

"Say!"

Xiang Yuan closed his eyes and spoke slowly: "My wife had a car accident on the way to discuss cooperation. The whole car rushed down the cliff and sank into the sea. When the police salvaged it, the person was already..."

Gu Jingzhan stiffened when he heard this.

The pen in his hand slipped quietly and touched the table, making a crisp and hollow sound.

Gu Jingzhan couldn't accept it, and couldn't make any reaction.

The atmosphere was stagnant and heavy, suffocating.

"No! Impossible!"

Gu Jingzhan finally responded.

He stood up suddenly, staring at Xiang Yuan with his eyes, and said in a trembling voice: "This must be fake, you are lying to me, right?"

Xiang Yuan lowered his head, looking away, not daring to look him in the eye.

"Master Zhan, please accept my condolences."

As soon as these words came out, Gu Jingzhan's heart dropped to the bottom.

He put his hands on the desk to steady his slightly shaking body.

Gu Jingzhan took a deep breath, trying to suppress the grief in his heart, and asked in a low voice: "Do my father-in-law and mother-in-law know about this?"

Xiang Yuan nodded and replied: "The police have notified them immediately, and the two elders are on their way to the police station now."

Gu Jingzhan was silent for a moment, then he picked up his coat expressionlessly and walked out of the office with heavy steps.

Seeing this, Xiang Yuan followed closely behind.

——Police Station

At the door of the morgue.

Jiang Peijun had already burst into tears.

She was immersed in the grief of losing her daughter, hugging Xiang Yanhua tightly and crying.

Xiang Yanhua was also deeply saddened.

Xiang Xingyu turned her back to everyone, buried her face in the shadow of the wall, and cried bitterly.

When Gu Jingzhan arrived and saw this scene, his heart skipped a beat.

But he ignored everyone, walked straight past them, and walked into the morgue with extremely heavy steps.

Inside the morgue, the white light was particularly cold.

Xiang Wanqiao's face was swollen by the sea water, and there were scars of varying sizes left by the car accident on her face.

She lay quietly on the cold metal stretcher, gently covered by a white curtain.

Gu Jingzhan stood nearby, his eyes fixed on the face that looked very similar to Xiang Wanqiao, his eyes empty and lifeless.

After a long while, he managed to find his voice: "How can you be sure that this is my wife, Xiang Wanqiao?"

The police responded: "We strictly followed the procedures, conducted a DNA comparison with her parents, and checked the identity information of the deceased in detail."

Hearing this answer, Gu Jingzhan's blood seemed to be frozen, and a biting coldness flowed through his body.

He shook his head, unable to accept this fact.

"No, she is not my Qiaoqiao, you must have made a mistake..."

Gu Jingzhan's eyes turned red and he staggered back a few steps, his whole body filled with unspeakable pain and resistance.

"Qiaoqiao said that she would never leave me in this life..."

"This must not be Qiao Qiao, it must not be!"

Gu Jingzhan covered his chest with his hands. His chest hurt so much that he could hardly breathe.

"puff--"

The next second, he vomited blood.

Xiang Yuan: "Master Zhan!"

Gu Jingzhan’s eyes went dark, his body lost support and he fell to the ground with a thump.

Hospital--

Gu Jingzhan was sent to the hospital, and Xiang Xingyu followed him out of concern.

After checking, Lu Qingzhou sighed softly, his tone heavy: "Brother Zhan suffered an unprecedented severe injury, and he was so angry that he vomited blood and fell into a coma."

Xiang Xingyu's eyes were red, and she asked in a trembling voice: "Then when will he wake up?"

"It depends on whether he is willing to wake up. Maybe tomorrow, maybe a week, or maybe..."

Lu Qingzhou didn't say anything else, but his meaning was clear.

Xiang Xingyu didn't say anything else.

Just at this time, Fu Shaoyan, who was far away in Europe, called.

Xiang Xingyu said something to Lu Qingzhou, then took his cell phone and walked to the corridor outside the ward.

As soon as the call was connected, Fu Shaoyan's voice came from the microphone.

"Xingxing, it's me, do you miss me?"

Hearing Fu Shaoyan's voice, Xiang Xingyu couldn't hold back her tears and they streamed down her face.

Fu Shaoyan noticed that she was in a bad mood on the other end of the phone and asked softly, "Xingxing, what's wrong? Are you crying?"

Xiang Xingyu cried and choked up: "Fu Shaoyan...my sister..."

"What happened to your sister?"

"She was in a car accident... and died..."

Upon hearing the news, Fu Shaoyan on the phone fell silent.

After a moment, he asked cautiously, "Where is your brother-in-law? After he learned the news...what happened?"

"After he saw my sister's body in the morgue... he vomited blood and fainted. He is now in the hospital." Xiang Xingyu replied while sobbing.

For a moment, Fu Shaoyan didn't know what to say, and only felt very heavy.

Xiang Xingyu cried and said, "Fu Shaoyan, I don't have a sister anymore."

Fu Shaoyan felt very distressed when he heard what she said, but he didn't know how to comfort her.

"Xingxing, stop crying and be strong." He said, "I will be back to Kyoto soon, wait for me."

"Ah."

When Qi Xiaoyi learned the news, he also rushed to the hospital with Wen Yu.

As soon as he entered the ward and saw Lu Qingzhou, Qi Xiaoyi asked, "How is it? Is Brother Zhan okay?"

Lu Qingzhou shook his head and said, "In this situation, how good do you think Brother Zhan can be?"

Wen Yu's eyes had already turned red from crying before she came here, and now, looking at Gu Jingzhan lying on the hospital bed, her eyes were wet again.

Qi Xiaoyi sighed heavily, still a little bit unbelieving.

"Sister-in-law, she really..."

Lu Qingzhou glanced at him and remained silent.

Wen Yu's voice immediately choked up: "My cousin's wife is gone, what will my cousin do in the future? And Xiaoqing, he is still so young..."

Qi Xiaoyi patted her head and said in a deep voice: "We will help take care of her in the future."

Wen Yu turned around, threw herself into Qi Xiaoyi's arms, and started crying again.

Qi Xiaoyi hugged her, gently stroked her back, and comforted her silently.
