Liang Shi had no choice but to agree.
But after Liang Wanwan left, she took out her phone and messaged Xu Qingzhu: "You promised Wanwan Yang Shuyan's autograph? Is it possible to get it?"
The implication is—come to me, and I can get it.
Liang Shi has already seen it. She has scenes with Yang Shuyan in this drama, so she will definitely be able to see her then.
Xu Qingzhu and Yang Shuyan no longer have much contact; the only person they can keep in touch with is Lin Luoxi.
But it's not a good idea to ask someone for help because of this.
Therefore, Liang Shi took the initiative to handle the matter and felt that it was the only one who could do it.
Two minutes later, Xu Qingzhu sent a photo.
The handwriting above was clearly Yang Shuyan's.
To Liang Wanwan
How could it withstand the fierce wind that came at night?
By Yang Shuyan
Her handwriting was flamboyant and elegant, but she could recognize every single one of them.
Just as Liang Shi was about to ask more questions, she received a call from an unknown number. After only a moment's hesitation, she answered, "Hello."
After receiving so many unfamiliar calls from the original owner of the body, Liang Shi felt like a customer service representative.
But there was no response on the other end of the phone, only the sound of soft breathing.
Liang Shi was sitting in the car, isolated from the noisy world, so he could hear it clearly.
A moment later, she asked again, "What do you want?"
The voice on the other end of the phone finally spoke, cold and indifferent, quite unlike its usual tone: "Where are you now?"
It's Gu Xingyue!
Liang Shi was startled. "I'm at the entrance of the Communication University of China. What's wrong?"
"I want to see you," Gu Xingyue said. "If you have time, let's meet at Gulang Pavilion."
Liang Shi asked, "Now?"
"Yes, I only have half an hour." Gu Xingyue paused after saying that. "By the way, do you know Chen Mian?"
Chapter 111
Chen Mian.
Liang Shi naturally recognized the name, which had been frequently mentioned since last night.
However, they didn't know whether the Chen Mian that Gu Xingyue was talking about was the same person Liang Wanwan had been talking about all day yesterday.
Liang Shi paused for a moment before replying, "I know one; he was a classmate from my junior high art studio."
"Let's talk when we meet," Gu Xingyue said and quickly hung up the phone.
Liang Shi drove to Gulang Pavilion.
This is a very private tea room where many people come to discuss business.
It was only early afternoon, and there weren't many people in the tea room.
Upon entering, you are immediately enveloped in the enticing aroma of tea, a truly delightful experience. A waiter proactively greets you and asks, "Do you have a reservation?"
Liang Shi shook his head: "I don't know."
She called Gu Xingyue, but she didn't answer.
Liang Shi's heart was pounding; she was a little afraid that Yang Jiani had asked Gu Xingyue to call her.
But Yang Jianni had no motive to do this. Even if she knew about her contact with Gu Xingyue, what could she do?
Even Zhou Yi'an's father couldn't control everything, so what could she do?
Liang Shi feared that Gu Xingyue was in danger.
As she hesitated about whether to call Gu Xingyue again, she received a text message: 【1007. 】
There were only four numbers. After thinking for a moment, she asked the waiter, "Do you have room 1007 here?"
"Yes, miss," the waiter said, leading her over.
Liang Shi stood at the door of 1007, bent his fingers and knocked three times, and the door opened from the inside.
It is the ancient star and moon.
She was still wearing a light yellow long dress with a cardigan over it, her hair was tied up with a blue scrunchie, and her makeup was fresh and pretty.
She looks gentle and serene.
It was her usual attire.
In the past, when Liang Shi saw Gu Xingyue dressed like this, he always felt that her temperament, which was ingrained in her bones, matched the outfit perfectly, making it appear exceptionally harmonious.
It also suits her face very well.
But today Liang Shi had a strong feeling that Gu Xingyue shouldn't be like this.
She is gentle, but she has a strong will in her bones.
If Qi Jiao in my memory is like hot spring water, then Gu Xingyue is like flowing water.
Sometimes it resembles a stream, sometimes a waterfall.
But now Yang Jiani has only given her the opportunity to be a streamer.
So she suppressed her waterfall-like nature.
But given the chance, the waterfall will surely plunge down with tremendous force.
Gu Xingyue was just playing the role of Qi Jiao.
So this is probably the kind of outfit Yang Jiani likes.
Gu Xingyue concealed all her emotions. She knelt on the futon, where two cups of hot tea sat on the light wood table. The blue-green porcelain cups were pleasing to the eye.
But for some reason, Liang Shi felt a sense of tension.
Liang Shi sat down opposite Gu Xingyue and found her sitting there in a daze, her eyes staring at some unknown spot on the table, without any expression.
Liang Shi didn't say anything, waiting for her to come to her senses, and then picked up his teacup and took a small sip.
A few seconds later, Gu Xingyue turned her eyes, came back to her senses, and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Liang Shi. Without any unnecessary words, she went straight to the point, "This is Qi Jiao's complete diary."
Gu Xingyue handed over the notebook, which was a fairly new diary.
"As you can see, all her diaries were written in Morse code, because she was afraid Yang Jiani would see them." Gu Xingyue said, then suddenly pursed her lips, lowered her eyes to look at the teacup on the table, and picked up the teacup and drank it all in one gulp, as if she was a little nervous.
A tea leaf remained at the corner of his mouth.
After finishing her drink, she took a tissue to wipe the water from her mouth, picked up the tea leaf and placed it on the table, then said in a deep voice, "I forgot to introduce myself."
Gu Xingyue looked at her, her eyes filled with indifference and fearlessness, unlike before.
There's a sense of detachment from life and death.
However, after not seeing her for a while, Gu Xingyue had become more aloof.
"My name is Gu Xingyue." Gu Xingyue smiled. "As you probably already know, I grew up in the Angel Orphanage, and my current name is Qi Jiao, and I've been living under that name ever since..."
She paused, then shook her head with a wry smile and said, "I can't remember."
I don't feel anything anymore.
Yesterday and today are no different; it's the same environment and the same feeling.
It was just as tough.
She really didn't remember. Anyway, it had been many, many years since she became Qi Jiao, and no one had called her Yueyue anymore.
No one called out her name—Gu Xingyue!
She is known by only one name: Qi Jiao.
Gu Xingyue looked at Liang Shi: "What did you want to talk to me about before? To sue Yang Jiani?"
Liang Shi shook his head: "The line of domestic violence is too wide. A lawsuit is not enough to put her in jail, but Qi Jiao has been dead for less than twenty years. We can give her justice."
At first, Liang Shi wanted to confirm the authenticity of her memory, but later he wanted Yang Jiani to pay the price.
But I never expected it to lead to such a big incident.
Yang Jiani is incredibly daring.
Or perhaps he's gone mad; this is something no normal person could do.
Liang Shi even felt that even if Yang Jiani was sued, she would likely escape legal punishment by claiming mental illness.
Now that we know, there's no reason to pretend we don't know.
Based on what happened when they were children, Liang Shi felt he should give Qi Jiao justice.
She cannot simply die for no reason, without even having her own name.
She should be Qi Jiao, Qi Jiao who lives for herself.
Gu Xingyue looked at her, “But there’s a problem now. If we want to get justice for Qi Jiao, then I have to stand up and say that I am Gu Xingyue, that the real Qi Jiao is dead, but no one knows how she died, and there is no evidence pointing to Yang Jianni as the culprit, because Yang Jianni is Qi Jiao’s biological mother.”
Unless there is very direct video evidence, it cannot be proven.
It's even possible that no one would believe a mother would kill her own daughter.
Even if it's just an accidental push.
But long ago, Yang Jianni had already killed Qi Jiao's soul.
Qi Jiao's diary can only serve as indirect evidence to prove that Yang Jiani committed domestic violence. However, since Qi Jiao is dead, the authenticity of that diary cannot be verified.
Everything seemed to be covering up Yang Jiani's actions.
She was an adult, while Qi Jiao was a child.
