Chapter 1391 Grandma was beaten.
"Xiaoxiao, come here."
Fu Yanchen's voice was low and gentle, with a hint of barely perceptible solemnity. He stood there, gently waving at Xu Xiaoxiao who was standing not far away.
That gesture was like a willow branch swaying in the spring breeze, with an irresistible force and an indescribable tenderness.
Xu Xiaoxiao's gaze fell on Fu Yanchen. His eyes were deep, as if hiding thousands of words, and he was quietly waiting for her to approach.
She couldn't help but feel a ripple in her heart, as if she had a premonition that something important was about to be revealed.
She took a step and walked slowly towards him, each step stepping on the heartstrings, making a subtle but firm sound.
"What's wrong?" Xu Xiaoxiao stood in front of Fu Yanchen, with a hint of doubt in her voice. She looked up at him, her clear eyes flashing with inquiring light.
Fu Yanchen was silent for a moment, as if he was considering his words, and then he slowly said: "I know what you are looking for? I checked the surveillance, that place is a blind spot, and I can't see anything. But..."
His words suddenly stopped, as if his throat was strangled by an invisible force.
At the same time, there was a hint of worry in his eyes that was hard to conceal, a deep concern and uneasiness.
"Xiaoxiao, just now you were all busy asking about Grandma Xiaomei's condition, and you didn't notice that Grandma Xiaomei had obvious scars on her body, and they were new."
His voice was a little low and a little heavy.
"Scars? Or new ones." Xu Xiaoxiao frowned.
"Well," Fu Yanchen nodded and continued, "I suspect she may have been beaten by someone during this period of time."
"Beating?"
These words were like a bolt from the blue, exploding suddenly in Xu Xiaoxiao's heart.
Grandma Xiaomei was beaten? This is simply a fantasy! Xu Xiaoxiao's eyes widened, her face full of disbelief.
You know, Xiaomei's grandmother has always had someone to take care of her, and these people are all Nan family staff, how could they possibly do something to her? But... how do you explain the injuries on her grandmother's body?
Xu Xiaoxiao's mind seemed to be struck by lightning, and countless questions and worries flashed through her mind in an instant.
She really couldn't understand why her grandmother would suddenly suffer such a thing. This was totally unreasonable!
Grandma Xiaomei is a kind and gentle old woman. She has never had any grudges against anyone, let alone someone who would do such a cruel thing to her.
Moreover, they had just arrived here and were unfamiliar with the place, so they had no chance to offend anyone! They were just here as guests, not to do anything else.
The more Xu Xiaoxiao thought about it, the more she felt that this matter was too strange.
She decided to find out the truth of the matter and not let her grandmother suffer such a great injustice in vain.
Xu Xiaoxiao felt a chill rushing to her head, causing her to shiver involuntarily.
He is such an old man, with a kind face and a peaceful attitude. Who on earth could have the heart to attack such an elder?
Xu Xiaoxiao's heart was filled with anger and confusion. Her eyes became sharp, as if they wanted to penetrate the thin air to find the murderer hiding in the dark.
She didn't say anything, but turned around silently. Fu Yanchen hurriedly followed her back to the room together.
Inside the room, the lighting was soft and warm, but it was unable to dispel the oppressive atmosphere in the air.
Grandma Xiaomei has fallen asleep under the effect of the medicine.
Fu Yanchen gently pulled open the old man's sleeve with gentle movements.
"Xiaoxiao, look."
Xu Xiaoxiao followed closely with her gaze, and when she saw the obvious scars on Xiaomei’s grandmother’s face and hands, she couldn’t help feeling a pang of sadness in her heart.
Those scars, like twisted earthworms, crawled all over the old man's skin, and were still oozing blood slightly.
Fortunately, the injuries were not serious, just superficial wounds, but the shocking scene still made Xu Xiaoxiao feel heartbroken.
Her eyes couldn't help but become moist, tears welled up in them but never fell.
At this moment, Xu Xiaoxiao deeply felt the complexity and cruelty of human nature, and became more determined to seek justice for Xiaomei's grandmother.
Who on earth could be so cruel to a seriously ill old man?
She clenched her fists so tightly that her nails dug deeply into her palms, but she felt no pain at all.
His eyes became firm and persistent, as if he had already seen the moment when the murderer would be brought to justice in the near future.
"Who hit him?"
There was a slight tremor in Xu Xiaoxiao's voice. She stared at Fu Yanchen closely, her eyes full of anxiety and anger, as if she wanted to dig the answer to the question out of his eyes.
Fu Yanchen shook his head lightly, his expression solemn: "The surveillance camera can't capture the key scenes, but we can call the staff who just took care of grandma to ask them, maybe we can find some clues from them. And..."
He paused, his eyes flashing with sharpness, "She... was obviously lying just now."
"You figured it out too?" Xu Xiaoxiao couldn't help feeling relieved when she heard that. At least on this issue, the two of them were in sync.
Fu Yanchen nodded slightly, his eyes showing both affirmation and expectation, hoping to find out the truth from the next questioning.
Just then, Xiaomei suddenly pushed the door open. Her face was covered with tear marks and her eyes were as red and swollen as two ripe peaches.
When her eyes fell on her grandmother's scarred body, an unspeakable pain surged into her heart like a tide, drowning her in an instant.
Her legs seemed to have suddenly lost support and she collapsed to the ground, her body shaking uncontrollably.
She opened her eyes wide, looking at the scars in disbelief. They were criss-crossed, of varying depths, and some were even oozing blood, as if telling of the torture and pain her grandmother had endured.
Every scar was like a sharp knife, piercing her heart fiercely.
Tears gushed out of her eyes like a flood breaking through a dam, and a low, sad cry came from her throat. The cry grew louder and louder, more miserable, as if trying to release all the pain and resentment in her heart.
"Who hit her? Who on earth did it? My grandma is so old and in poor health, she doesn't want to be provoked. Who would be so excessive?!"
Xiaomei's voice was filled with despair and anger, echoing in the air, moving people. Her crying was like a sharp blade, cutting through Xu Xiaoxiao and Fu Yanchen's hearts, leaving deep marks.
They looked at each other, their eyes filled with determination and resolve.
At this moment, they seemed to have reached some kind of silent understanding that they must find the murderer who hurt Xiaomei's grandmother and never let him go unpunished.
Xiaomei sobbed, clutching the corners of her clothes tightly with both hands, as if this could bring her a little comfort.
Her eyes were filled with fear and helplessness, as if the whole world had collapsed at this moment.
Xu Xiaoxiao walked up to her, gently held her in her arms, and gently stroked her hair, trying to use her warmth to dispel the fear in her heart.
"Xiaomei, don't be afraid, we will find out the truth and never let anyone hurt your grandma."
Xu Xiaoxiao's voice was firm and gentle, like the warm sunshine in spring, shining into Xiaomei's heart.
Xiaomei gradually calmed down in her arms. Although tears were still falling, there was more determination and hope in her red and swollen eyes.
At this time,,,
