Chapter 18 Not That Simple

After asking about the itinerary of the white apricot blossoms, Qin Long made a decision.

"You are waiting for me at Nancheng Station."

After hanging up the phone, Qin Long and Xu Lin's grandmother briefly explained the situation, and then went out.

He arrived in the city as fast as possible, and did not buy a ticket. He rented a car directly and headed straight to Nancheng.

I ran all night and finally arrived at Nancheng Station at dawn.

I bought two breakfasts at the breakfast shop. Qin Long rushed to the station and called Bai Xinghua on the way.

"I'm at the exit," Qin Long said.

"You have arrived?" Bai Xinghua asked in disbelief.

"Well, I'm walking higher, slightly faster than your train. Let's hang up first, let's talk about it when I meet," Qin Long hung up the phone.

After waiting at the exit, the crowd came out. Qin Long saw the haggard white apricot blossoms. She was wearing black clothes and carrying a canvas bag, and she was a rural woman.

As the crowd came out, Bai Xinghua stood at the exit and looked around, but did not see Qin Long.

At this moment, a young man with a vulgar expression suddenly walked behind Bai Xinghua. While she was lost, she quickly took action. Her index finger and middle finger were like pliers, and she clamped out the mobile phone in Bai Xinghua's pocket.

After the phone was picked out, a middle-aged man in a suit walked up next to him and reached out to pick up the phone.

The middle-aged man put on his cell phone and quickly got on the elevator, following the crowd and rushed out of the station.

"Sorry, let it go!"

A figure hurriedly ran along the elevator, hitting several people in the middle, causing several people to frown.

When passing by the middle-aged man in a suit, the man suddenly slipped his feet and seemed to fall, but he quickly looked and hugged the middle-aged man.

"Sorry, sorry," the man apologized repeatedly, got up and continued to run towards the elevator.

After leaving the elevator, the man hid behind a pillar on the side, reached out to take out a pink cell phone from his pocket and weighed it. He couldn't help but smile. Who wasn't Qin Long?

"The thief dares to show his eyes in front of me," Qin Long looked at the cell phone in his hand, thinking that Bai Xinghua is too stupid. He is actually standing in such a dense crowd. Who else should the thief stare at her?

After arriving for a while, Qin Long arrived at the exit again and was about to tease the white apricot blossoms. However, after searching for a long time, he could not find the white apricot blossoms.

He was a little anxious and subconsciously took out his cell phone and wanted to call Bai Xinghua. Then he remembered that Bai Xinghua's cell phone was in his hand. He couldn't help but smile bitterly, thinking to himself, what should I do now? Where can I find Bai Xinghua in the huge Nancheng?

In desperation, he had to walk out of the station and wander around nearby, wanting to see if Bai Xinghua was making a public phone call.

Sure enough, after searching for a while, I saw Bai Xinghua wiping her tears while walking towards a public phone.

Picking up the phone, Bai Xinghua called Qin Long's number.

Qin Long stood behind her and answered the phone.

"Hey, Qin Long? I am Bai Xinghua. My phone was stolen. Why am I so unlucky?" Bai Xinghua couldn't help crying.

"It's okay, I lost my phone, I can get it back," Qin Long walked forward and handed Bai Xinghua's cell phone to her.

Bai Xinghua looked at her phone and was startled. She turned around and saw Qin Long. Unconsciously, she stood up and hugged him.

Qin Long knew that she was scared, so he quickly patted her back and comforted her: "Okay, it's okay. I actually saw you early in the morning. As a result, a thief stole your phone in the middle. I went over to ask for a phone, so I wasted some time."

"Thank you," Bai Xinghua realized her loss of composure, quickly let go of him, took the phone, looked around for a brief look, carefully put it back in her pocket, and then looked at him and said, "Fortunately, I don't know what to do."

Qin Long smiled and handed her breakfast: "Let's have something to eat first."

The two came outside the station and sat down on a bench on the side of the road.

Bai Xinghua lowered her head and ate, and suddenly started crying again.

Qin Long looked at her and said to her, "What are you going to do? If your husband really falls from a high place accidentally, he can only ask for more compensation, and the rest is not easy to deal with."

Bai Xinghua shook her head, wiped away her tears, looked at Qin Long and said, "No, I don't think he had an accident, he should have been framed."

Qin Long was stunned and said curiously: "Why do you say that?"

Bai Xinghua frowned and said, "He rarely calls home, but a few days before the accident, he would call home almost every night and say something strange to me."

"What did he say?" Qin Long asked.

"He said he—love me and miss me. We have been married for several years, and he has never been so numb. Then I asked him what happened, and he said that everything he did now is for me and for this family," Bai Xinghua frowned and said, "He said this very strange. Is everything he did before not for me or for this family? So I think there is something in his words, and he must have hidden something."

Qin Long nodded and said, "It seems that things are not simple. Let's do this. You first find the boss of the construction site to talk. Try not to show abnormalities. First test his reaction. I'll investigate it secretly to see if I can find something."

"Well," Bai Xinghua nodded and looked at Qin Long and said, "I want to go to the funeral home to see him first. Although only ashes are left, that is my man after all."

Qin Long couldn't help but sigh, thinking that your man is also a good life, at least someone will collect his corpse, but I, if I die in the future, I will probably not even have a corpse collector.

"Then you go directly to the funeral home. I will follow you. If there is anything, I will support you in time," Qin Long said.

Bai Xinghua nodded, took out her cell phone, and called a person in charge of the construction site.

"Hey, is it Boss Li? I am Bai Xinghua. I am at Nancheng Station now. Which funeral home is my man in? Yes, I want to get his ashes back. Oh, Bai Xia District Funeral Home, right? I'll come here soon." Bai Xinghua hung up the phone, told Qin Long the address, and then got into the taxi.

Qin Long drove the car, followed the taxi where Bai Xinghua was taking, and came to the outside of the Baixia District Funeral Home.

Seeing Bai Xinghua enter the funeral home, Qin Long stopped the car and then walked into the funeral home casually.

"You are the white apricot blossoms?"

A bald middle-aged man with a big belly met the white apricot blossoms. His little eyes were shining. He stared at the beautiful figure of the white apricot blossoms and swept them. He subconsciously swallowed his saliva, then nodded and said, "Come with me, sign the agreement first."

Bai Xinghua followed him into an office. The middle-aged man took out an agreement and handed it to her and said, "This is a compensation agreement. The amount of compensation is 50,000 yuan. Take a look. You can get your husband's ashes after signing it."

Bai Xinghua looked at the agreement and frowned and said, "This is said that my man committed suicide, and I can't agree."

"Oh," the bald man went to the back of the table, lit a cigarette, squinted at Bai Xinghua and said, "Tell me what you think."

Bai Xinghua stammered: "Boss Li, that, I hope, I hope to find out the cause of my man's death."

Boss Li frowned and looked a little unhappy, but soon changed into a kind look, let Bai Xinghua sit down, poured her a cup of tea, got up and walked to her, pretending to be concerned, put his hand on her shoulder, and said to her: "I understand your mood, but Xu Bin did die in an accident, and we regret it. I know that your family is also in a difficult situation. To put it bluntly, you just want to get more money, right?"

Bai Xinghua quickly shook her head: "No, no-"

"Okay, you don't need to explain. I understand what you mean, but this matter is not easy to solve on the surface. Our unit can only pay so much compensation. If you want more, there is actually no way. I can give it to you, but you have to repay you," Boss Li said, rubbed his palm on Bai Xinghua's shoulder and touched the soft and thin neck of Bai Xinghua.

Bai Xinghua was startled, and suddenly stood up and jumped away, stared at Boss Li and said, "Boss Li, please give me the key points."

"Haha, okay, very strong-hearted, okay," Boss Li smiled, raised his palm, and said with a finger: "You don't have to do anything for one, just accompany me occasionally. I'll also help you rent a house so that you can live a comfortable and decent life. How about it, do you want to consider it?"

"You, you, gangster!"

The white apricot blossoms turned red, tears fell down, and they turned around and walked out.

"Hmph, think it through yourself. It will not be that easy to come back after leaving this door!" Boss Li shouted coldly.

"Get out, you evil man!" Bai Xinghua kept running to the funeral home, hid in the corner, covered her face, and burst into tears.

At the same time, in the funeral home, Boss Li picked up the phone, dialed a number, and said to the phone: "That woman doesn't have a trap, she is ready to implement the second plan. If it's not soft, it's hard. What? Do you suspect that there is a master around her? The cell phone I stolen just now was touched back? How is this possible? She is a rural woman, who can have masters around her? I think it's the person you are looking for is unreliable, and she didn't steal the cell phone and make excuses. Okay, I won't talk about it now. Remember to catch the woman and don't touch her first. Let me play enough."

Boss Li hung up the phone, bit the cigarette with his teeth, and a vicious smile appeared on his face.

Just as Boss Li sneered proudly, a figure turned around and hurried away outside the door.

When he got outside, Qin Long pulled up the white apricot blossoms and ran towards the car without saying a word.

Bai Xinghua was full of grievance and said in a sticky voice: "That boss Li, that bastard, he--"

"Don't talk first, I know everything. This matter is not as simple as it seems. Let's leave here first," Qin Long pushed Bai Xinghua into the car, sat in the driving position, stepped on the accelerator, and rushed out like a bison, and soon disappeared into the vast traffic.
