But he hadn't hidden Yang Sijie in his own residence. Where else could he have hidden him?
"I really like your minimalist decorating style. Then I won't disturb you further. You're always welcome to visit our home if you have the chance." Qin Tianyi said, and without even sitting down, he pulled Su Su away.
Leaving Allen's apartment complex, Qin Tianyi was still thinking about where Allen might have hidden Yang Sijie, assuming Allen had seen the reports about the mudslide in Eshan County and taken precautions. kanδん
Seeing him distracted, Su Su shook his hand high and asked, "Are we still going to eat and shop?"
Qin Tianyi got into the car with her and said, "Yes, of course, we have to feed you and the two children until you're full."
Su Su said "oh" and asked, "Were you looking for something at Allen's house?"
"No, I was just looking around." Qin Tianyi replied vaguely.
Su Su didn't believe him. "You're so strange today. Why are you suddenly so interested in Allen and his place? Don't tell me you still suspect Allen of doing anything illegal for Yang Sijie?"
"You don't think it's normal for me to have this suspicion?" Qin Tianyi said. "Since I had the chance to go to his house today, I took a few more looks."
Su Su said, "I still think he wasn't involved in Yang Sijie's affairs. But the most special thing in his house was that full-length mirror. I didn't expect him to be quite so attentive to his appearance. That mirror is installed on the living room wall and takes up almost an entire wall. Why don't we install a wall-sized mirror in our walk-in closet too? It would be so convenient for checking our appearance…"
"Okay, if you want to install it, then install it." Qin Tianyi suddenly realized that the mirror might be a door, and there might be a hidden space behind it.
He needed to get the floor plan of the two-bedroom, one-living room apartment in that complex and then carefully study the layout of the house.
"Hey, are you listening to me?" Su Su said, displeased to see him spacing out again. "Mr. Qin, what's on your mind? Why are you always distracted? Confess quickly. If you don't confess, I won't be honest with you anymore."
"It's just those things at the company. Never mind, never mind, I don't want to think about work. It's more important to accompany my dear wife on our shopping and eating trip." Qin Tianyi pulled her into his arms, no longer thinking about Yang Sijie.
As soon as Su Su and the others left, Allen immediately locked the security door, slid the full-length mirror, and opened the hidden door with a key.
He saw Yang Sijie sitting in a wheelchair, smashing the wall with his fists, muttering incoherently, "It's her... she's here..."
Allen grabbed his fists and told him to calm down, "Yes, so what if she's here? She doesn't love you at all, she has someone she likes! Don't you know how happy she is with that man? They're going to have another child. Why haven't you given up yet?"
Yang Sijie stared blankly, as if he couldn't hear or understand what Allen was saying.
He stopped punching, but his hands were still unconsciously repeating, "She, it's her, she's here..."
Allen sat on the floor helplessly, looking up at him, knowing that he had actually lost all his memories. He had only heard Gu Su Su's voice inside, a subconscious conditioned reflex.
Because Gu Su Su was deeply ingrained in his mind, even with only his subconscious left, he could still react to her voice.
"Frey, wake up, wake up. They just want to kill you."
After Qin Tianyi's visit, this place was no longer safe. Allen clearly understood that he had to hide Yang Sijie somewhere else tonight, and leaving Lancheng was also urgent.
...
As night fell, Qin Tianyi and Su Su walked hand in hand along the greenway by the city lake. Su Su laughed happily, "I really enjoyed eating today."
"You enjoyed it, but I'm stuffed." Qin Tianyi had always been restrained in his eating habits. No matter how delicious or favorite the food was, he wouldn't eat too much.
But Su Su wanted to try a little of everything, and she couldn't finish it. To avoid waste, he ended up eating the leftovers, which made him overeat.
Su Su giggled. In the lamplight by the lake, her eyes were like two charming crescent moons. She said coquettishly, "With you here, I dare to try everything. Otherwise, I wouldn't dare to eat so freely. Feeding us three, and incidentally feeding you, is great..."
Her smiling, chattering appearance made him itch. He stopped, pulled her to the railing, leaned down to kiss her lips, and said in a low voice, "Whatever you say is right."
"Ah, ah, there are so many people walking around here." Su Su clung to his neck and said, "Mr. Qin, be temperate."
Qin Tianyi pinched her cheeks and said, annoyed, "You tell me to be temperate, but you're not shy about holding me so tightly."
Su Su chuckled, "Knowing you're abstaining, I dare to be so bold."
Qin Tianyi playfully tickled her waist, "Naughty, mischievous..."
Su Su quickly dodged, "Oh no, you know I'm most ticklish."
Qin Tianyi, afraid she might fall, put his arm around her waist and became serious. "I'm not fooling around with you anymore. I have something serious to tell you."
Su Su stood up straight and looked at him, "What serious matter?"
"I've confirmed that it wasn't Shu Zhongze who instructed someone to tamper with your car."
Su Su calmly said "oh" and asked, "How did you confirm it? Did you ask him directly? Even if he did it, he wouldn't admit it."
"I'm sure he wasn't lying about this. It's highly likely his wife did it without his knowledge." Qin Tianyi hesitated whether to tell her that Shu Zhongze already knew about their blood relationship.
"Jia Nanfang did it on her own?"
Qin Tianyi nodded, deciding not to tell her his thoughts about Shu Zhongze for now.
Su Su felt the suffocating feeling in her heart gradually dissipate. She thought that although Shu Zhongze was unfeeling and disregarded family ties, he wouldn't do something so vicious.
"Now that he knows, he'll probably protect his wife." Su Su said with a hint of disappointment.
Qin Tianyi took her hand and continued walking. "Who knows? Let's leave this matter to the police to investigate and conclude."
They walked around the lake twice, and feeling less full, they got into the car and went home.
At the same time, Allen, using the excuse of moving things from his shop, called a moving company late at night. He avoided Qin Tianyi's surveillance and loaded Yang Sijie into an extra-large suitcase with ventilation holes.
After the dessert shop closed, he moved some miscellaneous items into the shop and lingered there for a while, keeping the night watchman's lights on. He then quietly left through the back door with Yang Sijie.
He drove to a deserted pier by the sea and boarded a smuggling boat that had been arranged. Only after the boat started moving did he help Yang Sijie out of the suitcase.
Yang Sijie, pale and covered in a cold sweat, sat in the cabin and took a while to recover. When he saw Allen approaching him, he flinched and shrunk back in fear.
Allen soothed him helplessly, "It's okay, it's okay. Don't blame me. It's for your safety. Once we reach international waters, no one will be able to find us..."
