Chapter 157 was indeed not an accident.
At least, he wasn't the only one suffering this sadness at this moment.
Bai Mengfei is still alive, sharing this torment with him.
After pretending to leave nonchalantly, she, who thought herself strong, hid alone under the stairs, covering her mouth and nose, tears streaming down her face.
She didn't want things to turn out this way either, but in the face of fate, love seemed so insignificant.
This scene was witnessed by Wang Tian, who happened to be passing by.
She watched quietly from a distance, filled with questions as to why Bai Mengfei was so heartbroken.
From her angle, she could see Xiang Yuntian walk out of the morgue, but because of the staircase, Xiang Yuntian couldn't see Bai Mengfei hiding there, secretly weeping.
Xiang Yuntian turned his head and saw Wang Tian standing opposite him. Because of Wang Tian, he turned and walked in another direction.
After Xiang Yuntian left, Wang Tian stepped forward, wanting to show concern for Bai Mengfei.
When Bai Mengfei saw her approaching, she quickly raised her hand to wipe away the tears on her face.
"Are you alright?" Wang Tian took out a tissue and handed it to Bai Mengfei, just like Bai Mengfei had handed it to her last time, her eyes full of concern.
"I'm fine, perfectly fine." Bai Mengfei refused to take the tissue.
Wang Tian wanted to help Bai Mengfei wipe away her tears, but Bai Mengfei raised her hand to stop her.
This fragile yet stubborn and strong appearance is a true reflection of Bai Mengfei's inner self.
She took a deep breath, pretended to be nonchalant, and remained silent.
"Did he bully you?" Wang Tian couldn't help but wonder.
"Who?"
"Xiang Yuntian, did he bully you? Otherwise, why would you be hiding here crying all by yourself?"
Wang Tian asked curiously, even though she didn't believe Xiang Yuntian would be that kind of person.
How could Bai Mengfei possibly answer?
Could it be that God is the one who is bullying me?
That sounds absurd.
Besides, she simply cannot reveal her background!
So she simply said coldly, "Mind your own business and don't meddle in other people's affairs."
Having said that, he left in a hurry.
Wang Tian, however, still stared curiously at her back, feeling that she was a special person, with a maturity that shouldn't exist at her age.
Bai Mengfei went to the balcony alone and let the wind blow on her.
But the wind made her tears flow even more easily. Deep down, she also hoped that Xiang Yuntian would suddenly appear and gently hug her from behind.
But reason told her that this wouldn't work in the long run.
Finally, she sighed into the wind, trying to let go of her feelings.
Unexpectedly, Wang Tian had already run off and told Xiang Yuntian about Bai Mengfei's crying.
“I just saw her alone on the stairs, crying very sadly. Are you sure you didn’t bully her?” Wang Tian said softly.
Upon hearing this, Xiang Yuntian instantly realized his mistake and cursed himself inwardly as a "bastard".
At noon, since there was no work scheduled for the afternoon, Bai Mengfei decided to go back first.
However, Xiang Yuntian needs to dissect the body, and according to criminal law, he also needs to contact Ma Lifeng's family, so he has to stay.
So Bai Mengfei decided to go back.
Unfortunately, a typhoon struck, affecting the area where Bai Mengfei was located; the sky was overcast and the wind howled.
Bai Mengfei finally decided to brave the strong wind and go back to get some rest, since she hadn't slept a wink all night.
After learning the truth, Xiang Yuntian hurriedly chased after him.
In the wind, he blocked Bai Mengfei's path and asked anxiously, "You were just crying because of me, weren't you?"
"So what if it is? So what if it isn't? It's none of your business." Bai Mengfei replied coldly on purpose.
Xiang Yuntian stared intently at Bai Mengfei's face for a long time before saying sincerely, "If it's because of me, I hope you can explain it to me clearly. What exactly happened? Did I do something wrong? If it's my fault, I can change it."
"It's not your fault, it's the weather, okay?" Bai Mengfei said sadly.
Xiang Yuntian was stunned for a moment, blinked, and asked in surprise, "The weather?"
“That’s right.” After saying that, Bai Mengfei walked past him and left.
Xiang Yuntian stood there alone, his brows furrowed with deep helplessness.
After Bai Mengfei left, she did not notice that someone was following her. This person was none other than Old Ghost.
From the moment Bai Mengfei got into the taxi until they arrived at Zhao Fei's relative's house, Lao Gui followed her the whole time.
He looked quite ordinary and had no obvious scars, so he did not arouse suspicion.
When Bai Mengfei opened the door, the key accidentally fell out, and at the same time she noticed the presence of the old ghost.
She quickly picked up the keys, opened the door, and then closed it tightly.
The murderer was right outside the door. Bai Mengfei closed the doors and windows, first called Zhao Fei, then contacted the community administrator, and finally called Jiang Shuai.
The community administrators were the first to arrive. After looking around, one of them said, "No way, our community security has always been very good. Don't scare yourself."
Bai Mengfei had anticipated that they wouldn't believe her, but fortunately Zhao Fei and Jiang Shuai arrived shortly afterward.
When Lao Gui saw so many people arrive at once, he knew he had been exposed, so he quietly left.
Zhao Fei suggested to Bai Mengfei, "Why don't you move back and live with Xiang Yuntian? You're colleagues, and if you live together, at least he can protect you 24/7, right?"
As Xiang Yuntian's good friend, Jiang Shuai knew that Xiang Yuntian genuinely liked "Zhang Ting," and he also advised, "Yes, go back. I can see that you two have feelings for each other. Any misunderstandings can be cleared up; there's no need to keep this up."
"You don't understand, and you can't help me. Fine, if you keep saying that, then just leave. I don't want to see you again."
Bai Mengfei felt that they couldn't understand her at all, so she asked them to leave.
Left with no other choice, Zhao Fei and Jiang Shuai had to leave first.
However, Zhao Fei took Bai Mengfei's situation very seriously and specially assigned two policemen to protect her secretly.
Before catching Lao Gui, the two policemen's mission was to ensure Bai Mengfei's safety.
One of the police officers was the same one who had underestimated Bai Mengfei's youth at the beach this morning.
At 2:30 p.m., after a short rest, Xiang Yuntian saw Ma Lifeng's family arrive and immediately began an autopsy on the body.
The outcome was exactly as he had predicted.
There was no mud or sand in the stomach of the deceased, Ma Lifeng.
