Retreat

The hotel manager personally came forward and temporarily opened a room on the second floor to provide a quieter environment for He Yu to be searched.

In addition to Ling Qiang, two vice presidents of the association were also invited to witness together. At the same time, the hotel manager and the person in charge of the security department were also present.

He Yu was not worried about the body search, he was sure that he hadn't done it, and he didn't even know that the bracelet had appeared on him.Even so, the feeling of humiliation cannot be erased. In front of so many people, he was accused of being a thief, and even deliberately mentioned that he had been in prison.

Qiao Mudong's hand was always on his shoulder, seeing that he was depressed, he patted his head.

When entering the room, Ling Qiang asked Ling Zhilu to stay outside, so don't follow along.

Ling Zhilu was very unhappy, Fu Chenshan held her hand, "Don't go."

Ling Zhilu shook him off heavily, turned around and left.

The door of the room was closed, and Fu Chenshan stood alone in the corridor, leaning against the wall and began to smoke.He couldn't describe the aggrieved feelings, he couldn't even stand up and say a word to He Yu like Qiao Mudong, because in Ling Qiang's eyes, he didn't have that qualification.He clearly told He Yu that he would not be wronged again, but he still couldn't do it.

The hotel manager asked two experienced security guards to search He Yu's body, but the bracelet itself was so small that it was difficult to touch it, and the security guards were a little embarrassed.

Ling Qiang stood upright and said expressionlessly, "Take off your clothes."

He Yu pursed his lips tightly, and the blood on his lips was almost gone.

Qiao Mudong's hand on He Yu's shoulder suddenly clenched tightly. Before he could speak, He Yu said first, "Yes, but I would like to ask Miss An to avoid it."

An Qi's expression was not good at this time. He Yu had already taken off his coat just now, and now he was only wearing a shirt and a pair of black trousers.If He Yu didn't find the bracelet, then the bracelet would definitely fall out as he took off his clothes, but now it doesn't, it can only mean that He Yu has found the bracelet, and he dared to take off his clothes in front of everyone to prove his innocence, then Surely the bracelet would not remain on him.

An Qi looked at He Yu in amazement, and then at Qiao Mudong. At this time, she didn't dare to speak casually, for fear that she would be caught by the other party if she made a wrong sentence.

So she could only turn around cooperatively.

He Yu took off his shirt, threw it to the security guards for inspection, and then slowly took off his trousers, leaving only a pair of underwear on his body.

He didn't feel that it was too unnatural, and being stripped for inspection in prison wasn't something that happened once or twice, but no matter then or now, he couldn't get rid of the deep sense of humiliation.

He Yu raised his head, indicating that he had nothing on him.

Ling Qiang said, "Check your underwear."

The two security guards were a little embarrassed, but they still came forward to check briefly, and there was nothing.

He Yu put on all the clothes and pants.

Ling Qiang said to An Qi: "Miss An, please recall carefully again, did you accidentally drop it somewhere?"

An Qi put the necklace on He Yu with her own hands. At this time, she could only look at He Yu in disbelief and said, "He must have left the necklace somewhere in the middle."

The hotel manager said: "We have sent people to search everywhere, but no one has found the bracelet. I think the time between this gentleman stealing the bracelet and being discovered by you is so short, there should be no time to hide it."

Qiao Mudong suddenly said: "Turn on the monitoring."

"I'm sorry," said the person in charge of security, "we've already had someone call up the surveillance cameras, but the cameras are far away. The gentleman and the lady made physical contact very quickly, and it's impossible to see if there was any stealing." Behavior."

Qiao Mudong said: "After all, there is no evidence."

The hotel manager said to He Yu, "I'm sorry." Then he said to An Qi, "Miss, if you are sure that your bracelet was stolen, then we can call the police for you."

An Qi is not sure at this time either. She and He Yu didn't know each other before, and she was just doing Ling Zhilu a favor. Now, she wants to get back her valuable bracelet rather than continue to frame He Yu.

"Call the police," Angie said.

The hotel manager motioned for security to call.

He Yu suddenly said, "Can I go?"

Before Ling Qiang could speak, An Qi said first, "No, wait until the police arrive."

Qiao Mudong suddenly walked towards An Qi, he looked aggressive, even He Yu was taken aback, thinking that he was going to hit someone, so he quickly reached out to hold him.

However, when Qiao Mudong walked up to An Qi, he only said one sentence: "Please apologize."

An Qi shrank back subconsciously, raised her head and said, "My things were stolen, why should I apologize?"

Qiao Mudong said: "I told you before the search, if you can't find anything, you have to apologize to He Yu."

An Qi felt a little panicked, and turned to Ling Qiang for help, "Uncle Ling!"

Qiao Mudong grabbed her wrist suddenly, "By the way, you shouldn't be here, you should be in front of everyone." After speaking, he actually dragged An Qi outside.

An Qi exclaimed, "Let go of me!"

Qiao Mudong forcefully opened the door, Fu Chenshan who was guarding the door asked in surprise, "What's wrong?"

Qiao Mudong pulled An Qi towards the stairs, and said as he walked, "Don't worry, I won't hit women."

He Yu hurriedly chased her out, and even Ling Qiang followed, shouting loudly: "Qiao Mudong, let her go! What does it look like!"

Qiao Mudong didn't listen to anyone, and dragged An Qi into the banquet hall.He Yu wanted to stop him, but Qiao Mudong refused to stop, and only said, "You follow."

It's not that He Yu doesn't hate this woman, he's just afraid of going back to that banquet hall, even if he can get an apology, it can't prevent people from looking at him like a criminal.

Qiao Mudong pulled Angel to the small stage in the innermost part of the banquet hall, and everyone looked at him along the way. When Ou Yunjia and Xie Zhan saw He Yu, they all came forward to ask how he was doing.

He Yu shook his head, watched as Qiao Mudong went up to take the microphone, handed it to An Qi, and said, "Speak."

After all, An Qi is a young girl in her early twenties, no matter how naughty she is, she has always been the only one who bullies others, and few others bully her.He thought that he would be free from scruples because of his family's wealth and power, but he never expected to meet someone like Qiao Mudong.Qiao Mudong grew up among the poor, he knew that face was earned by himself, not by others, so he didn't need to be polite to these rich people, anyone's face would be bought in front of Qiao Mudong No way.

"Let go!" An Qi couldn't bear it, and finally cried in a low voice.

Ling Zhilu watched from below, her heart was in a mess, she looked around to find someone to stop Qiao Mudong.

At this time, An Qi's friends couldn't stand it any longer, two or three young men jumped up, and without saying a word, they moved towards Qiao Mudong, "Let her go! Bullying women is nothing!"

Qiao Mudong let go of An Qi, caught the man's fist, and then kicked him on the knee, kicking him to the ground on the spot.

He Yu saw that there was a fight here, and three people were beating Qiao Mudong alone, so he didn't care about anything, grabbed the person behind Qiao Mudong, and pushed him away.

These pampered young masters were no match for Qiao Mudong, and they were beaten to the ground in an instant.

Ling Zhilu yelled loudly: "Stop him quickly! Security guards!"

Several security guards quickly gathered around and pulled away the people on the stage who were making moves.

The entire banquet hall was in chaos.

Ling Qiang also rushed down from the upstairs, and when he saw that Qiao Mudong started to fight with someone, he was so angry that everyone trembled, and he stood at the door and slammed on the door, "Stop it!"

Standing beside him, Fu Chenshan saw that his body was shaking, so he stepped forward to support him, "Be careful, Dad, don't be angry."

It wasn't until the police arrived that they finally brought the chaos under control.

An Qi's bracelet was not found, except for her own insistence, there was no evidence to prove that He Yu stole it, and even the lost property was not found, and there was no way to prove whether the bracelet existed.The scene was crowded and chaotic, and it was impossible to search them one by one, so the police could only record it for her and advised her to search carefully.

As for the fight between Qiao Mudong and the others, because they were stopped quickly and no one was injured, and both sides were well-known figures in Chongfeng City, nothing happened in the end.

Ling Qiang was so angry that he originally wanted to bring Qiao Mudong out to let everyone get to know each other, but in the end Qiao Mudong was known to everyone, but he created a situation that was difficult to end.

Fu Chenshan and Zhou Xuelan's mother and daughter accompanied Ling Qiang back first, while Qiao Mudong and He Yu were taken to the Public Security Bureau to make notes.

When Qiao Mudong came out, it was almost morning.

He walked out of the gate of the Public Security Bureau and saw He Yu sitting alone by a flower table by the roadside, with his head bowed silently.

He Yu didn't look up, he just heard footsteps and knew that Qiao Mudong had come out.

Qiao Mudong walked over and sat down next to He Yu.

He Yu was very depressed, very depressed. Ever since he went to work at Ou Yunjia's company, Qiao Mudong had never seen He Yu sad like this.

Ou Yunjia called him to comfort him and told him it was nothing, but he still fell into that low mood and couldn't extricate himself. The images of the dinner party resurfaced in his mind over and over again, An Qi's words, Ling Zhilu's words, and the expressions of the people next to him.In fact, no one was smiling, but in his memory, everyone seemed to have a cold smiling face.

He Yu rested his head on Qiao Mudong's shoulder.

Qiao Mudong stretched out his arms to wrap his arms around him, took out a cigarette with his other hand, put it in his mouth, and lit it with a lighter.Qiao Mudong put the lit cigarette to He Yu's mouth, "Take a puff."

He Yu was choked by the smoke and coughed twice.

Only then did Qiao Mudong realize that He Yu's health was still not fully recovered, so he took the cigarette back, took a puff by himself, and spit the smoke on He Yu's face.

He Yu waved his hand in front of his face, coughed twice and said, "Smoking second-hand smoke kills faster."

Qiao Mudong hugged him tighter and said, "It's okay." I don't know if it means smoking second-hand smoke is okay, or it's okay to die soon.

He Yu buried his face in Qiao Mudong's arms and said, "You're not calm again today." He didn't mean to blame Qiao Mudong. In that situation, he himself couldn't calm down, so how could he ask Qiao Mudong to be calm.

But Qiao Mudong said harshly: "It's a pity that those bums were not killed."

He Yu didn't understand, "You said that I have no grievances with them, why don't you let me go?"

Qiao Mudong raised his hand and rubbed his head vigorously, making his hair messy.

He Yu said: "Your sister ordered it, right? I never understood why she hated me so much, and I didn't offend her."

Qiao Mudong said: "Don't pay attention to her, we will clean up together later."

He Yu raised his head, "I don't want to go to work anymore."

With such a commotion today, news about him will definitely spread, and everyone in the company will know that he has been in prison in the future. He really doesn't want to endure other people's strange eyes.

Qiao Mudong stretched out his hand to touch his face, "If you don't want to go, don't go, just play at home."

He Yu said: "But I really like this job."

Qiao Mudong looked down at him, "Why don't we set up a company for ourselves?"

He Yu couldn't help chuckling, "Stop making trouble."

"Let's go," Qiao Mudong pulled him up, "Go home first."

He Yu took his hand and walked slowly forward, "Take a taxi?"

Qiao Mudong suddenly said, "Wait a minute."

There is a river in front of it, winding through the center of Chongfeng.There are white stone railings on both sides of the river, which are full of willow trees. The long branches hang down and shake slightly when the wind blows.

It was late at night, and there was no one by the river. Because it was the flood season, the sound of the water flow was not small, especially at night.

Qiao Mudong dragged He Yu to the river.

He Yu asked strangely, "Why?"

Qiao Mudong took out a bracelet from his shirt pocket.

With a shiny silver diamond bracelet, He Yu looked at Qiao Mudong in surprise, "You—"

Qiao Mudong pinched his face, "It came from you idiot."

He Yu touched his chest subconsciously, "When did she let it go?"

Qiao Mudong said: "When you helped her, I don't know, I didn't see it."

He Yu was still surprised, "Then you know why you didn't say it? You dare to take it to the police station, you are too bold! What if the police think you stole it?"

Qiao Mudong snorted, "The police won't know."

"Then what do we do now?" He Yu asked.

Qiao Mudong said: "What do I do with her? Let's find her slowly."

After finishing speaking, he raised his hand and threw the bracelet into the rushing river, without any splash, it disappeared in an instant.

Qiao Mudong clapped his hands and pulled He Yu, "Go, take a taxi home."
