It was currently in theaters and has a lot of films scheduled.
They found a theater with a good screen and was about to buy tickets when a call came in on her phone. It was from Mu Lanshu.
Gu Nian quickly picked it up: "Mom."
On the phone, Mu Lanshu's voice sounded strange, and Gu Nian became nervous and asked quickly: "Mom, what happened?"
Chu Zhaoyang also looked over immediately, and Gu Nian also turned to look at Chu Zhaoyang. When she heard Mu Lanshu's words on the phone, Gu Nian shouted out loud: "What!"
"Come over here. Your uncle and aunt are at home now. Your uncle has just arrived. When he found out, he will divorce your aunt." Mu Lanshu said on the phone.
Gu Nian pressed the corners of her eyes tiredly, but the matter was indeed too big.
She didn't dare to neglect, and said in a tight voice: "I know, I'll go over right now."
After hanging up the phone, Chu Zhaoyang immediately asked: "What happened?"
Seeing that Gu Nian's face turned pale, Chu Zhaoyang turned around, found a parking spot on the side of the road, and parked the car.
"Mu Qishan is dead." Gu Nian said, her voice still trembling.
Being a police officer, especially after encountering a series of incidents organized by R, dead people were not uncommon for her.
Whether it was unrelated people, criminals, or colleagues around her.
During this period, many people died.
But in the final analysis, Mu Qishan was still her cousin and a blood relative.
Suddenly without any warning, she died immediately. Gu Nian was really not prepared at all.
Even before, she could point at her and curse so arrogantly, like a weakling who couldn't be beaten. In the blink of an eye, her life was gone.
"Mom said that she was in prison and had a dispute and a fight with her fellow inmates. It wasn't long after she entered the prison. There were small groups in the prison, each with its own boss. She didn't know how she offended a boss."
"As a result, the boss led others to beat her. She was spoiled by my aunt outside. She didn't know how to restrain herself when she went in, and she didn't know many friends. Therefore, when she was beaten, no one stepped forward to help or start a fight, they all just watched from the sidelines."
"Those people seemed to know the severity of their attacks. They beat her hard but not fatally. So after the beating, although her nose was bruised and her face was swollen, and her body was injured, she was able to return to her cell all the way."
Chu Zhaoyang listened quietly to Gu Nian's explanation.
"It was just in the middle of the night that she suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood. Her roommate was sleeping hard, and she vomited blood but had no strength. After a long time, she couldn't wake her roommate up, so she rolled out of bed. She made too much noise on her own that alerted the prison guards and rushed her to the hospital. But she didn't survive on the way."
Gu Nian let out a deep breath and frowned heavily: "It was said to be internal bleeding. When they got to the hospital, she couldn't hold it anymore."
Chu Zhaoyang raised his hand and rubbed Gu Nian's eyebrows.
She couldn't figure out how she felt about Mu Qishan now.
To Mu Qishan, he didn't care. If she died, she died. The news didn't make any waves in his heart.
He couldn't even remember clearly what Mu Qishan looked like originally.
But she was Gu Nian's cousin after all. He's afraid that if he spoke lightly, Gu Nian will be unhappy.
At that moment, he didn't know how to comfort her, so he just stopped talking.
Gu Nian knew what he meant and was not angry.
To put it bluntly, the things Mu Qishan did before made her really unable to sympathize with her now.
Just a little sad.
Gu Nian took Chu Zhaoyang's hand, pulled his fingertips down from her eyebrows, held it in her palm, and placed it on her knees.
"Now my uncle is at my mother's place, making noises about divorcing my aunt." Gu Nian felt a headache just thinking about it. Before it got over, she could already imagine the mess over there.
Suddenly, she felt a little tired.
"I'll go over and take a look. You should go home first." Gu Nian sighed, "Sorry, we can't watch the movie today."
Chu Zhaoyang frowned slightly and held her hand with his backhand: "I'll accompany you."
"Think about the situation there today, as you can imagine. It's too chaotic and terrible." Gu Nian said, "Just don't go."
"It's precisely because of this that I go even more. I have to protect you." Chu Zhaoyang paused, "What if you and your mother are bullied? There must be someone who can back you guys."
Seeing that Gu Nian still wanted to say something, Chu Zhaoyang's face sank: "When did you start seeing me as an outsider?"
He was afraid that she would be influenced by Chu Jiahong and Xiang Yulan today.
"It's just..." Gu Nian paused, then smiled in relief, "It's nothing, let's go there together."
Chu Zhaoyang then smiled and started the car again.
On the way, Gu Nian was a little silent.
Every family has its own scriptures that were difficult to recite, and every family has one or two relatives who were not so agreeable.
But because of Mu Qishan's troubles again and again, Gu Nian was really worried that Chu Zhaoyang would be unhappy and bored.
Always bothering him with things at home, and she felt bad about him.
So, she wanted to solve it herself.
Just as she lowered her head and thought, a hand suddenly stretched out in front of her. On the back of the clean hand, a little blue blood vessels could be faintly seen, which were not obvious.
When the fingers were slightly raised, the muscles and bones on the back of the hand were also slightly protruding.
His hands seemed so thin and strong, even the slightly protruding and distinct knuckles seemed to be full of strength.
That hand held her hand firmly, and the soft white hand was wrapped in his palm, feeling indescribably warm and solid.
It was as if the whole person was protected under his wings and no one could be hurt.
"Don't think blindly." Chu Zhaoyang said.
Gu Nian's hand trembled in his palm. Chu Zhaoyang felt it and tightened his grip more firmly.
