CHAPTER 829: CHAPTER 829: WON’T BACK DOWN (5)

"So, you’re saying you don’t know."

"Of course I know—" The words had just left her mouth when Kang Yueting suddenly covered her mouth with her hand.

Zhu Jiayin quickly rushed over to hold her and said to Ou Yanan, "She made a mistake, we know nothing. Goodbye!"

With that, she pulled Kang Yueting away and left.

Coincidentally, they didn’t know that Zhang Sanfeng’s butler was actually present, having received the message Ou Yanan sent earlier, he was nearby observing, and upon seeing this clue emerge, wouldn’t he immediately get someone to tail and follow them.

Ou Yanan, fearing to delay in delivering the medicine which might worsen Gu Nuan’s illness, didn’t go probing for news about the Qiu Family through Qiu Jiali, and fully entrusted the matter to Zhang Sanfeng’s butler, before getting into a car and hurrying back.

Qiu Jiali saw him and Kang Yueting leave after their conversation, and in her anxious state, she followed him out.

As a result, the area near the hospital entrance was crowded, with several pedestrians blocking the way, preventing her from keeping up in time.

At this moment, Qiu Jiali had no idea that danger was closing in on her step by step.

She just kept running out, even preparing to sprint to catch the car Ou Yanan was in.

She really wanted to talk to him because she was now homeless. Her mom and her brother were preparing to flee with her. But she didn’t want to go abroad; going abroad meant she could never see him again, which she couldn’t bear.

She couldn’t just sit and wait anymore, because if her mom found her after she fled, she would never be able to see him again in her lifetime.

How did she suddenly fall for such a person?

Qiu Jiali couldn’t quite figure it out either, only knowing that perhaps after catching up, she might see someone else.

See who?

Gu Nuan.

Although her brother blamed everything on Gu Nuan, thinking it was Gu Nuan who forced their family to go on the run, she always felt it wasn’t like that, as if Gu Nuan was the only one who could help their family now.

In short, Qiu Jiali had a vague sense of unease, always feeling that running away wouldn’t solve the problem.

The phone in her pocket rang loudly, and she knew it was her mom calling, urging her whereabouts.

Qiu Jiali looked around and saw an alley on the right, fearing her mom would find her if she arrived in a car and immediately take her back, she ducked into the alley to hide.

In the quiet alley with no one around, Qiu Jiali found a place to squat and looked down at her phone again.

Just then, a sudden crash sounded above her, something like a brick fell from the top of an old house, striking directly down onto her head.

In an instant, Qiu Jiali collapsed to the ground, motionless.

Her head had a large hole, with blood and brain matter continuously flowing out.

How terrifying this scene must have been.

A person slowly walked towards where she lay, letting out a cold laugh at her open eyes: "You think you have the right to chase him?"

Qiu Jiali’s fingers on the ground twitched once, and then they stopped moving for good.

Gu Dad and Gu Mom, sitting in a taxi, arrived at Mingxin Hospital, only to hear the sound and see the flashing lights of police cars near the hospital.

This immediately gave them a foreboding feeling.

All they heard was the murmuring of passersby around them:

"Dead."

"How did they die?"

"A high school student, seems they didn’t see the warning sign, unfortunately walked into that alley, and got killed by a brick falling from an unstable building."
