False evidence

Chapter 241 Secretly Loving You
The man who came in was probably not even fifty years old, but a third of his hair was white.

This makes him look much older than his actual age.

As I brushed past this person, I caught a strong whiff of alcohol.

Turning around, I saw this person slowly and unsteadily walk to our table.

Although Gao He had been drinking, he remained alert and glanced at the other person sideways, asking, "What do you want?"

The other person suddenly grinned.

Although Gao He was on guard, he was still startled by the way Gao He laughed.

Despite the cold weather outside, this person's face was covered in a layer of oily sweat, and even their hair was wet and stuck to their scalp.

He already looked somewhat sickly, and when he smiled, his mouth was sticky with saliva, and his teeth were covered in blood!

He wasn't smiling at Gao He, but was looking at Li Meizhi the whole time.

While laughing, he reached out and grabbed the wine bottle on the table, and gulped down several large mouthfuls right at the bottle opening.

Wine mixed with blood and saliva spilled from the corner of his mouth, making him look utterly disgusting.

Xiao Shen couldn't help but mutter under his breath, "Damn it, what is this thing?!"

I was a little dazed just now, but now that I've come to my senses, I instinctively walked back.

Gao and I exchanged a glance, took out our phones, but hesitated.

Everyone could tell that something was wrong with this person.

The bright red blood in his mouth was definitely not from chewing betel nut, but from internal bleeding caused by severe internal injuries.

Logically, at this point, anyone with a modicum of common sense should call an ambulance.

However, as soon as I saw this person, I felt extremely disgusted by him.

The reason I hesitated was because a thought that shouldn't have been in my mind was—this person deserves to die.

The man gulped down several more mouthfuls of wine, his face turning red, making him look even more repulsive.

"What do you want to do?"

Gao asked again.

"Hehehe...I want to do it!"

The man finally spoke, his voice hoarse, like a planer cutting through a cement slab.

His answer and Gao He's question didn't seem to match at all.

However, while he was speaking, his eyes were fixed on Li Meizhi.

In this way, anyone with a modicum of sense can discern the ambiguity in his words.

"Dirty!"

Turing rose to prominence.

Gao He shouted, "Don't do anything reckless!"

I quickly stopped the senior female disciple of the dojo and stood protectively beside Li Meizhi.

The other person started drinking again.

He drank almost half a bottle of liquor in several rounds, and it was nearly empty.

I can't stand him anymore.

However, just as I was about to take action, the other party suddenly grinned at Li Meizhi again and said in that unpleasant voice:
"My dear wife, there were originally ten buns in one steamer."

Hearing him say that, I suddenly remembered Liang Kaiyuan's account from before Heqian Town.

In fact, at this point I had already used the Ghost Hand to transfer Liang Kaiyuan's soul from Xiao Shen San to me.

That's why I had that conversation with Li Meizhi just now.

But for some reason, as soon as the disgusting man in front of him entered, Liang Kaiyuan hid and refused to show up again.

"Honey, hurry home after you finish your steamed buns. Our baby is waiting for you to breastfeed."

The man said something sarcastic again. The others in the shop had also noticed the situation.

The shop owner hurriedly came out from behind the counter, walked up to the man, and shoved him aside, asking, "What are you up to?"

The man rolled his eyes and grinned at him.

The shop owner was naturally startled as well.

It can only be said that he has some common sense; upon recognizing the man's appearance, he hurriedly pushed him away.

"Don't do this in my shop! Go outside if you want to die!"

She shoved the man out of the store, then said, "Don't be like this. Go over there! Turn left at the end, you know the hospital? Go to the hospital! Go now!"

"What a terrible thing! What a terrible thing!"

The owner shook his head and walked in, coming to our table and apologizing, "I'm sorry. In our small town, there are plenty of drunkards like this."

Then he shook his head again, "This guy's face is unfamiliar. It looks like he probably fell or was hit by a car. If he doesn't get to the hospital quickly, he might freeze to death on the street."

Upon hearing this, I was suddenly jolted awake. I quickly walked out of the shop and looked around, but the drunkard was nowhere to be seen.

I didn't deliberately look for anyone, because of that 'wishful thinking'—I just hope no one takes him to the hospital, and I can just let him die.

Back at the shop, Gao asked me, "Where did that person go?"

I mumbled that I didn't see it, and that someone must have taken her to the hospital.

From the moment she started speaking, Li Meizhi had been in a dazed state.

She still had tear stains on her face, stared at me blankly for a while, and then suddenly sighed.

"Meizhi, don't pay attention to that man, he's just a drunkard," Turing comforted her.

Later, I learned from her that Li Meizhi was already pregnant when Liang Kaiyuan died.

I was frightened that night, and then I was too heartbroken, so I miscarried.

Therefore, in Turing's view, it was very stimulating for Li Meizhi for a drunkard to say "mother of my child" in front of her.

Li Meizhi seemed to be searching for something on my face, and her sigh was because of disappointment.

She picked up the wine glass in front of her and took a sip.

This time, he only frowned slightly.

She finally spoke, but she was still looking at me:
"I still can't remember why I killed Kaiyuan that time."

I sighed: "If you can't remember, you can't remember."

She said, "I had another dream. In that dream, I also killed Kaiyuan."

I said "Oh".

"It's in this small town."

Li Meizhi suddenly smiled. "That fool. I was picking water chestnuts in the river when he thought I was being 'drowned in a pig cage,' and he pulled my wooden basin over. I fell into the water and got completely soaked."

Gao He stopped his wine glass at his lips, slowly swirling it in his hand, his eyes glancing sideways at me and Xiao Shen San.

Li Meizhi continued, "He said he wanted to stay, and I thought he was just joking. I never expected that fool would actually stay. It was at this steamed bun shop, when I was buying xiaolongbao (soup dumplings), that we met again."

"Oh, I bought xiaolongbao for my man. Yes, I have a man. My man loves xiaolongbao, and every time he asks me to buy some for him, I sneak two. So, he always thought there were only eight xiaolongbao in a basket, when there were actually ten."

I couldn't help but sigh again: "Liang Kaiyuan doesn't want you to live in the past."

I am telling the truth; this is information that Liang Kaiyuan passed on to me not long ago.

He seemed to have remembered more about his past life, and his hatred for Li Meizhi had vanished.

The communication with the soul during possession is indescribable.

But Liang Kaiyuan's message to me was very clear—he gave up hatred, but also asked me to keep a secret for him.

Perhaps Li Meizhi couldn't hold her liquor, as she didn't seem to be listening to me, but rather seemed completely absorbed in her memories, speaking with abandon:
“That fool, despite his family’s objections, actually moved here. He was really good to me, often buying me things to eat. Before that, I had never had a full meal.”

Li Meizhi smiled again: "Don't think that there's anything between him and me. If he really wanted it, I would definitely give it to him. But that fool knows I have a man, and he wants me to get a divorce, but I refuse and I don't dare. So he has always refused to have me, but he's just secretly nice to me."
