Chapter 437 The grudge between him and He Mei
"Brother Qiang, are you there?" Gu Chaoxi knocked on the door, but there was no response from inside.
She waited for a while, raised her hand and knocked on the door again, and called out again: "Brother Qiang, are you there? Please open the door."
Finally, footsteps were heard from inside, as if someone was dragging their feet on the ground in slippers and moving towards the door.
The door was opened from the inside, but the light inside was very dim and no lights were on.
Brother Qiang's face appeared in the gap, his eyes slightly narrowed, looking at the two people outside.
The curtains in the room were drawn tightly, not letting in any light.
With the little light outside, I could just barely see Brother Qiang's face, and his expression didn't look very natural.
"What's the matter with you?"
Brother Qiang's voice sounded a little hoarse, as if he hadn't been in water for a long time.
This is not the point. The point is that when Gu Chaoxi looked down along the path where Brother Qiang was, he noticed that his foot, which was close to the door, seemed to be injured.
The foot was wearing a slipper and was wrapped in a piece of cloth, with a little blood seeping out of it.
"Brother Qiang, is your foot okay?"
She asked, and Brother Qiang looked at her feet, then moved her feet backwards.
This feeling is like I have done something and got discovered, and then I feel guilty, so I try to avoid it.
Pei Yan didn't give any chance at all. He just raised his hand and pressed on the door panel, pushing hard inside.
Brother Qiang had never thought that the people outside would force the door in, so he was not careful and staggered back two steps, allowing the two men to succeed.
Looking at the two people who had stepped in, Brother Qiang's expression became even worse than before.
But they had already come in, and he couldn't drive them away by himself, so he simply took a few steps back and sat down on the chair.
"What do you want to do?" Brother Qiang asked.
Gu Chaoxi looked towards the room. At this moment, Pei Yan had already opened the curtains of the room.
The light from outside shone into the room, and it instantly became less dark.
Brother Qiang raised his hand to block the light for a moment, and then put it down after a while, saying in a somewhat unfriendly tone: "What on earth are you guys doing?"
"Brother Qiang should know exactly what we want to do."
Gu Chaoxi said this, pulled a chair, sat down on it, and looked up at Brother Qiang.
"We are very curious. Why did you want to kill everyone even Yaya after Wang Chao died?"
Hearing this, Brother Qiang was stunned for a moment, then disgust appeared in his eyes and he waved his hand.
"I don't understand what you are saying. If you want to cause trouble, please get out."
"hehe."
Gu Chaoxi sneered and lowered his eyes to look at the injured foot.
"Your foot was accidentally injured at the construction site last night, right?"
The reason she asked this was that she saw blood on a shovel when she was demolishing the wall.
The shovel clearly hadn't touched the wall yet, so where did the blood come from?
Besides, most of the workers on the construction site have been working for more than ten years and it is impossible for them to be injured so easily.
Moreover, the bloodstains did not look like they had dried on the shovel for a long time, and the color looked relatively bright.
So, she wondered at the time whether someone had been injured recently and fell on the shovel.
Sure enough, when he saw that Brother Qiang had an injured foot, Gu Chaoxi connected the two things together.
In other words, when he was dealing with the bodies of He Mei and Yaya last night, he accidentally hurt himself because it was too dark at night.
Her eyes were so naked that Brother Qiang felt uncomfortable all over and moved his feet back.
But what good will it do if I move it?
"No, I accidentally hit it this morning."
"Does the collision require bandaging? What kind of collision would cause so much blood on the foot?"
Pei Yan asked, squatting on the ground, looking at the trash can in front of him. Many of the tissues inside were stained with blood.
Obviously, Brother Qiang's foot was seriously injured last night.
After being exposed by him, Brother Qiang choked a little, but still refused to admit that he was injured at the construction site.
"I was peeling fruit this morning and I accidentally cut myself with the fruit knife."
"Don't change your words." Gu Chaoxi shook his head.
It has come to this, is there any need to quibble?
Brother Qiang’s face turned pale and he stopped talking.
"Why don't you tell me why you killed He Mei and Yaya even though Wang Chao was dead."
Brother Qiang turned his head away, obviously not wanting to answer Gu Chaoxi's question.
But she wasn't too anxious. She just chuckled, leaned back in her chair, and spoke again.
"Since you don't want to talk about this, why don't I put it another way? Why did you work with Zhao Zhifa to kill their whole family?"
"What Zhao Zhifa?" He retorted subconsciously, but exposed himself in an instant.
Gu Chaoxi sneered, raised his hand and tapped his leg lightly.
"Oh, it's not Zhao Zhifa, so it's a partnership with Song Jiangwen."
Hearing this, Brother Qiang became completely furious. He stood up, picked up the water cup on the table and smashed it to the ground.
"Go away, get out of here, you are not welcome here."
The flying debris reached Gu Chaoxi's feet, but she didn't even look at them. She kicked them away with a cold tone.
"You are a murderer, what qualifications do you have to be angry here?"
Pei Yan had a cold face. He stood up and took two steps over, then raised his hand and put it on Brother Qiang's shoulder.
The huge force made Brother Qiang's face turn pale in an instant, and Pei Yan pushed him down to sit again.
On the opposite side, Gu Chaoxi looked at him as if he was a dead person, scanning him from top to bottom.
"I don't want to play any guessing games with you. As for the reason, you can tell me if you want."
"But I remind you that you are not the only one who dares to kill people in this place."
In her words, she was actually referring to He Xing.
But obviously, Brother Qiang, who was now being pressed on the shoulder by Pei Yan, automatically understood this sentence to refer to the two of them.
So, he nodded palely: “Let me go and I will tell you, but you can’t do anything to me.”
"Sure, we just want to know the truth."
Feeling Pei Yan's hand leaving his shoulder, Brother Qiang took a breath and immediately raised his hand to rub it.
Then, he closed his eyes in despair.
"If He Mei hadn't failed to do what she promised me, I wouldn't have such a strong hatred towards her."
"What's the grudge between you and He Mei?" This is the first time I've heard of it.
Brother Qiang sighed, with resentment in his eyes.
"Originally, she promised me that after receiving my money, she would let Wang Chao leave the construction site and return my things to me."
"But later, she asked me for money twice in a row, but she didn't let Wang Chao leave this place. Wang Chao even ridiculed me and called me a fool."
"It was then that I realized that He Mei had cheated me of my money and told Wang Chao."
“That’s why things between Wang Chao and I became even more unpleasant later on.”
