Chapter 402 Another Person
At this moment, Bai Mengfei was filled with suspicion.
Could this woman be the murderer?
Does she have a split personality? Maybe she injured herself with that scar on her head!
Bai Mengfei looked at her with suspicion in her eyes, but did not say anything.
Qi Han noticed Bai Mengfei's gaze and perhaps realized her earlier lapse in composure, so she slowly lowered her head.
Bai Mengfei approached step by step, walking slowly towards him, and tentatively asked as she went, "Are you alright?"
"I'm fine." Qi Han shook her head gently, her hands still tightly clutching the photo as they hung down in front of her.
This shows that the photo was of great significance to her.
Seeing that Qi Han seemed to be thinking about something, Bai Mengfei asked with concern, "You look a little dazed. Are you feeling unwell? Would you like me to get you a glass of hot water?"
Qi Han shook her head firmly and said, "No need. Why don't you come with me to the living room and watch TV for a while? Let's kill some time and make it pass faster."
After saying that, without waiting for Bai Mengfei's response, she took the lead and walked towards the living room. Bai Mengfei was worried that something might happen to her, otherwise her trip would have been in vain, so she quickly followed her.
After following Qi Han into the living room, Bai Mengfei sat with her on the sofa and watched TV.
While watching TV absentmindedly, Qi Han explained to Bai Mengfei, "I'm sorry, I was so emotional and unstable just now because I knew I was like waiting to die."
Bai Mengfei understood this point. She nodded gently in agreement and placed her hand on Qi Han's hand, softly comforting him, "Don't worry, you'll be fine."
Qi Han smiled slightly and said to Bai Mengfei, "Yes, I feel much more at ease with you here." As she spoke, in order to resolve the previous unpleasantness with Bai Mengfei, she picked up the photo, handed it to Bai Mengfei, and said, "Do you know why I care so much about this photo?"
"Why?" Bai Mengfei asked curiously.
Qi Han thought for a while before telling Bai Mengfei, "Because it's really important to me. Actually, the person I told you about last night was the first person I had a crush on, you could say my first love."
"Oh!" Bai Mengfei nodded gently in understanding, but said, "But doesn't unrequited love hardly count as real love?"
After saying that, she looked at the photo again and continued, "And judging from this photo, it must have been taken not long ago, not during junior high school."
Qi Han nodded affirmatively and said, "Yes, this was taken a year ago when we went on a trip. My husband and I met him there; he was doing business there and treated us to dinner. At first, my husband didn't know I had feelings for him before, and he generously became friends with him. Until..."
At this point, Qi Han suddenly paused for some reason.
Bai Mengfei was very curious and looked up at her with a puzzled expression, asking, "Understand what?"
“I kept in touch with him even after we came back, and then he told me a secret: he actually liked me back then too. Unfortunately, he didn’t have the financial means at the time, and he didn’t even have the courage to confess to me. He felt that kind of love was unrealistic.”
"And now you have a husband, right?" Bai Mengfei asked.
Qi Han nodded slightly, a bitter expression on her face. "Fate is really cruel; it's always hard for people who love each other to be together."
"Don't you and your husband love each other too?" Bai Mengfei asked.
Qi Han paused for a moment before telling Bai Mengfei some other secrets: "Actually, at first, my husband was my boss, not my husband. Later, when I was working for him, my father became seriously ill, and my family didn't have the money to treat him. My husband helped me, so I married him."
As she finished speaking, her voice grew softer and softer, but Bai Mengfei still understood the whole story.
Just then, there was a sudden knocking sound at the door. Because the room was very quiet, the knocking startled both Bai Mengfei and Qi Han.
The two turned their heads almost simultaneously.
"Who's here?" Bai Mengfei asked.
Qi Han gently shook her head, indicating that she didn't know either.
Bai Mengfei stood up and went to open the door. As soon as she opened the door, she saw a food delivery guy standing outside, carrying food in his hand.
"Did you order takeout?" Bai Mengfei asked Qi Han.
Qi Han shook her head uneasily, bit her lip, and said, "No."
Bai Mengfei immediately turned around calmly and said to the deliveryman, "We didn't order any takeout, you delivered to the wrong place."
The delivery guy pulled down his hat brim and adjusted his scarf, then left without saying a word.
Bai Mengfei didn't think much of it and simply closed the door.
As soon as she entered the room, she looked at Qi Han and said, "Don't be afraid, the takeout was just delivered to the wrong place."
"Oh! So that's how it is!" Qi Han finally breathed a sigh of relief, but you could still see from her face that she was still very scared, and the muscles on her face were even trembling involuntarily.
When it was lunchtime, Bai Mengfei picked up her phone and ordered takeout.
It turned out that the delivery person was the same one as before. Bai Mengfei couldn't help but laugh and say, "What a coincidence, it's you again!"
"Because I'm quite diligent!" the man said in a muffled voice.
Bai Mengfei didn't pay any attention and simply took the takeout and went into the room.
Throughout the entire day, Bai Mengfei stayed by Qi Han's side without leaving for a moment. As time passed, Qi Han's unease became increasingly apparent.
She went to pour herself a glass of water, but the water overflowed, scalding her hand. The glass then fell to the ground and shattered with a crash.
Seeing that she was still trying to tidy up herself, Bai Mengfei quickly went over and said, "Let me do it. You go sit over there. Don't think too much. With me here, you're safe."
Hearing Bai Mengfei say this, Qi Han smiled slightly and nodded gently, but from the uneasy expression on her face, it was clear that she was still very flustered.
That night, because Qi Han was afraid to sleep alone, Bai Mengfei slept with her again. Before going to bed, because Qi Han was suspicious and even began to doubt Bai Mengfei, Bai Mengfei helped her take two vitamin B6 tablets and one vitamin C tablet.
Perhaps due to the effects of the medication, Bai Mengfei gradually fell asleep.
