Chapter 157 What is the truth?
The three words "old friend" made Chu He's face turn pale instantly.
I feel a little numb, as if someone has forced a ball of yarn into my head. It is very tangled, but I can't find the end of the yarn.
The woman standing next to Xiao Cheng also had her eyelashes trembling slightly when she heard the word "sister-in-law", and a trace of barely perceptible jealousy flashed across her face.
She calmed herself down and looked up at Xiao Cheng, but saw that Xiao Cheng had an expressionless face and his gaze was fixed on Chu He's face.
"Hello Miss Chu, are you Acheng's fiancée? I'm Sina."
Chu He was silent for a moment, nodded slightly, and forced a smile.
She looked at Xiao Cheng and met his eyes as deep as a pool. He stood opposite Chu He, his silence was more powerful than words.
The music sounded melodious, but Chu He felt that there was silence all around him.
At this time, Xiao Su looked at Sina with a cold expression, raised his finger and pointed at her hand which was on Xiao Cheng's arm.
"Sina, please be careful in public."
Sina's expression froze slightly, and she put her hand down silently in embarrassment.
Xiao Cheng put the tip of his tongue against his cheek, his eyes moved between Chu He and Xiao Su, and he said lightly:
"Brother, this is a public place, not at the Xiao family's. Sina is my female companion tonight, so you have to know your limits when interfering."
Some people around who wanted to come forward to chat and toast, saw this scene, stopped and walked away silently.
"let's go!"
Xiao Cheng glanced at Chu He, threw down three words and turned away.
Xiao Su's face remained calm, he just frowned and drank the wine in his hand in one gulp.
Chu He could tell that Xiao Su was speaking for her and criticizing Xiao Cheng.
"Thank you just now."
"Thank you? Why thank me?"
Chu He was slightly stunned. She pursed her lips and said softly, "Because you spoke up for me just now... Also, thank you for saving me back then."
She didn't want to mention this matter, nor did she dare to mention it. Although so many years had passed, she should at least say thank you to Xiao Su.
Xiao Su looked in the direction of Xiao Cheng with deep eyes.
"I thought you, Miss Chu, had forgotten, but you still remember." Xiao Su nodded and said sarcastically, "You should leave your thanks to Ah Cheng. After all, he almost lost his life because of you."
"What do you mean?"
Hearing this, Xiao Cheng was surprised. She... didn't know?
Seeing that he didn't answer, Chu He asked again: "What did you mean when you said you almost lost your life because of me?"
"nothing!"
Xiao Su didn't answer. He took a glass of wine from the side as if nothing had happened, took a sip, and turned away.
Chu He only felt a buzzing in her ears. If he and Xiao Cheng knew each other before, why didn't she have any impression of him at all?
Not far away, Xiao Cheng stood tall and straight, becoming the focus of the entire audience. He put one hand in his pocket, raised his glass and chatted with a group of business leaders. His every move revealed a casual elegance.
Who is Xiao Cheng?
Who is he?
Chu He stood there, her mind went blank. The boy who had appeared countless times in her nightmares overlapped with Xiao Cheng's face, as well as his bloodthirsty eyes.
Memory is like a vicious dog. The more you try to escape, the more it chases you. Even though the memory is sealed, she believes that the physical and psychological damage is real.
This unknown feeling made her dizzy, anxious, and nauseous. Fear aroused her desire to survive, and she had to leave quickly.
She turned around and hurried away in her high heels.
In the bathroom, Chu He retched repeatedly but couldn't vomit anything.
With trembling fingers, she took out her cell phone from her bag, sent a message to Huo Yuchuan, and left first.
Outside the cubicle door, there was the sound of high heels clicking, followed by the voices of two women talking.
“Have you seen the news?
