Who moved her body?
Chapter 52 Returning
As usual, Papaya knocked on the door at 9:30.
"Breakfast is ready, Zhao Ren."
Guan Jie rubbed his messy hair and glanced at himself in the mirror by the door: dark circles under his eyes, but crow's feet from smiling.
When Mugua saw Guan Jie, she was so shocked that she took half a meter back.
"Did you take drugs?"
"No, I just stayed up too late watching TV last night and didn't sleep well." Guan Jie stepped aside to let Mugua in.
As Mugua passed by Guan Jie, she looked him up and down, her face full of suspicion.
"Watching TV and having so much fun? Who would believe that?"
Once inside the room, Mugua wandered around Guan Jie's room, pulling open Guan Jie's bedside table and then the wardrobe, but finally said with some disappointment, "You really didn't take your medicine?"
"No, it's just that I haven't watched TV in a long time, and this was quite enjoyable."
"What show could make you laugh like this? You're still smiling."
Guan Jie touched the corner of his mouth. "Really?"
Papaya waved her hand, "Alright. If you don't want to talk about it, then forget it. The boss told us to eat quickly, we have to go back to Wild Rock Island at ten o'clock."
"Ten o'clock?" Guan Jie exclaimed, then asked Mu Gua, "Didn't you say we'd be staying for ten days to two weeks? Did the boss's family go back?"
"No, but it happened suddenly, and the boss told us all to go back." After saying that, Papaya walked out of the room without turning back and said, "Hurry up and wash your face, I'll go set out your breakfast."
"Okay, I'm coming."
After closing the door, Guan Jie hurriedly washed his face and put on his hat.
He didn't have much luggage, just a few changes of clothes and two cell phones, one his own and the other given to him by Xu Haiyang. He stuffed all of these into his backpack.
Guan Jie had made up his mind to leave.
He wants to disappear from Shan Shan's world.
"Knowing you're still alive, that someone loves you, that's enough." Guan Jie picked up his bag and said to himself in the mirror, "What could make me happier than knowing you're alive? Even though you don't remember me, and I don't know what happened, I'm truly happy. Xiao Xian, you must live well!"
In the restaurant, Papaya had already set out breakfast, but Xu Haiyang had obviously not arrived yet.
Guan Jie finished his meal quickly, while Xu Haiyang stretched and looked reluctant.
"I didn't go out last night, and then I got a call this morning saying I have to go back. This is killing me!"
Xu Haiyang sat down, took a sip of millet porridge, then pushed it away and continued rambling, "I was planning to take advantage of this time to go out and have some fun for a few days, and then catch Chen Kaipiao off guard once Zhao Ren recovered. But who would have thought I'd have to go back today. Sigh, poor me. Once I get back, I don't know when I'll be able to stay out all night again. My beauties must be missing me so much they can't eat or sleep properly."
Papaya brought Xu Haiyang's favorite sandwich to him.
"The eldest brother is so loving, haha."
"How can a man not have a spirit of universal love? Don't you see how many women in the world need care? If everyone gives a little love, the world will become a better place!" Xu Haiyang took a bite of his sandwich, as if he had taken a stimulant, and became passionate. He said, "Changing the world starts with me, with the women around me. This is the quality that a socially responsible man should have."
"Yes, yes. Boss is right." Papaya quickly flattered him.
Guan Jie finished the last mouthful of porridge, stood up and said to Xu Haiyang, "Boss, I'll start the car and turn on the air conditioning to cool it down."
Xu Haiyang waved his hand, and Guan Jie picked up his bag and walked out of the villa.
......
Guan Jie drove the car out of the private road in the villa area and onto an asphalt road.
Just one more kilometer and you'll be in the downtown area. Abandon the car there and hail a taxi. It won't take many rounds to shake off the surveillance cameras. Guan Jie can then quickly escape from Huangyan City, and Zhao Ren will disappear from the scene.
Just as Zhao Ren appeared out of nowhere, he could also suddenly disappear.
He returned to Senhai City and continued his life. He got married, had children, and kept the story of Song Xiaoxian's resurrection forever hidden in his heart, making it a secret for the rest of his life.
He didn't want to know the answer, nor did he care about the answer. He just wanted Song Xiaoxian to live well, and that was enough.
The red light ahead is flashing; it will turn green in two seconds.
The car to Guan Jie's left had already begun to move slowly forward, trying to rush out as soon as the green light turned on.
A Mercedes-Benz Vito ambulance silently drove past in the opposite lane after the light turned green.
……
Xu Haiyang went out, but his car was not in the parking space.
Papaya carried Xu Haiyang's LV suitcase, looking as if she had seen a ghost.
"Wasn't Zhao Ren supposed to be here to start the car? Where did he go?"
Xu Haiyang, with a toothpick dangling from his mouth, seemed deep in thought, his brow furrowed. Mugua, who had never seen Xu Haiyang like this before, immediately quieted down, her loud voice replaced by a soft, muttering tone.
"Did Zhao Ren drive away by himself?"
Xu Haiyang crossed his arms and leaned against a decorative sculpture by the garage, calmly saying, "We'll find out soon enough whether they've run away or not."
Papaya stretched its neck and looked around, as if trying to find Zhao Ren and Xu Haiyang's G-Wagon from behind a tree.
After ten minutes of anxious waiting, Papaya was already covered in sweat.
"Zhao Ren, Zhao Ren, don't you dare drive off in your Mercedes! If you do, I'm afraid I'll be in big trouble too." A flame of anxiety ignited in Mu Gua's heart. After all, he was the one who introduced Guan Jie. If Guan Jie ran away, and even drove off in Xu Haiyang's car, then he would be the first to be beaten up by Xu Haiyang.
Thinking about Guan Jie's file, his bizarre past, and how he spent more time in prison than in shopping malls, Papaya felt like dying.
"It's over. I was hoping to hitch a ride on Zhao Ren, who was Xu Haiyang's savior, but now I'm going against the current." Papaya gave up struggling, squatted on the ground, covered her head, and waited for Xu Haiyang to unleash his fury.
Just as Papaya's head was almost touching the ground, the sound of wheels rolling over the road surface came through the paving stones, and Papaya raised his head in annoyance.
It was Xu Haiyang's car!
"Boss, we're here, we're here!" Papaya jumped up and waved to Guan Jie. "Hurry up, everyone else is gone, it's just us left."
Guan Jie stopped the car, opened the passenger door, and let Xu Haiyang get in.
"Sorry boss, I went to wash the car. It was so dusty." Guan Jie wiped the water stains off the door frame and said, "I thought it would only take a few minutes to rinse it off, but I didn't expect to have to wait in line so early in the morning."
Xu Haiyang tugged at his collar and nodded with a smile.
"It's clean and tidy, which is very pleasing to the eye."
Guan Jie closed the door for Xu Haiyang and walked around the front of the car. When Guan Jie opened the car door, he saw Mu Gua, who had survived the ordeal, and patted Mu Gua on the shoulder.
"Hurry up and get in the car. I didn't expect you to be so thin and so afraid of the heat."
Papaya got on the bus and grinned at the window.
It feels so good to be alive after such a disaster!
……
As the car drove onto the cross-sea bridge, the Mercedes ambulance came into Guan Jie's view, without its siren on.
"Zhao Ren, I was shocked when I came out and saw that you and the car were gone. I thought you had driven off in the boss's car."
Guan Jie turned to Xu Haiyang and asked, "Boss, what would you have done if I had actually taken your car?"
