Rebirth: He refused to Divorce Again-Chapter 146 - Consequences

Chapter 146: Chapter 146 Consequences

Why was it shocking?

What on earth was it?

Gu Qiaoqiao rubbed her head, trying to calm her thoughts bit by bit.

However, after a long time thinking, Gu Qiaoqiao still had no clue at all.

In her past life, after the incident, there had been times when her mind was very chaotic.

If it hadn’t been for her brother Gu Zishu supporting her, she would have gone crazy long ago.

Many memories were automatically erased, and there were also those she forced herself to forget.

For example, the three years of base life, Gu Qiaoqiao in her past life, never thought about it until recently, when she saw certain people and things, did she gradually start to remember.

But she really couldn’t remember anything about Zhao Ying.

In the memories of her past life, she had never met a person named Zhao Ying.

The moment she thought of this, Gu Qiaoqiao was stunned.

The source of this c𝓸ntent is freewebnøvel.coɱ.

That’s not right, she had lived here for three years.

If this Zhao Ying was indeed the team leader in charge of daily affairs at the base, she should have seen him during these three years.

Yet, Gu Qiaoqiao’s memory of this person, Zhao Ying, was completely unfamiliar.

Could it also prove from another aspect that this person might have left the base a few months later?

And that was the most likely scenario!

Leaving the base, whether it was due to dismissal or some other reason, Gu Qiaoqiao had no idea at that moment.

And now, Gu Qiaoqiao was more inclined towards Zhao Ying.

Because Zhao Ying had entered the kitchen, she hadn’t turned around at that time, but now thinking carefully, Zhao Ying should have stood beside the iron pot.

If it really was him, then this man was truly ruthless.

Considering these were all his colleagues and friends.

The ones he had once shared life and death with.

Yet this man had turned his slaughter knife towards those he had once fought alongside.

And if this event were really to succeed, the consequences were unimaginable.

This was almost half of the base’s mid to senior level research backbone.

The base only had two PhDs, one surnamed Chen and the other was Qin Yize, and they were all here.

There were also several senior engineers with research achievements, they were the core strength of the base.

If something really happened, it would turn everything upside down here.

But in her past life, things seemed very calm.

Or perhaps it might have happened somewhere, but it was an inside secret of the base and had nothing to do with Gu Qiaoqiao, so Qin Yize of her past life would not have told her.

As she speculated wildly, Gu Qiaoqiao had already cleaned the kitchen spotlessly.

She sat on the kitchen stool, spacing out.

And by this time, the rice was already perfectly steamed.

Gu Qiaoqiao switched the rice cooker to keep warm, set the iron pot properly, and then returned to her bedroom feeling uneasy.

The living room was just opposite the bedroom.

The hearty laughter of these great intellectuals, tempered by the northern winds and frost, seemed as if it could penetrate the roof.

But Qin Yize’s voice could not be heard.

Gu Qiaoqiao thought that at this time, he should also be wearing a faint, shallow smile.

After all, although he was cold, he was very close to the colleagues he truly got along with.

It could be said that although he was such a person, he truly had a few brothers he could entrust his life to.

Gu Qiaoqiao sat on the chair, her fingers unconsciously stroking it.

And the swelling on the back of her hand had already disappeared by this time.

Only the faint scent of ointment lingered on the back of her hand.

Gu Qiaoqiao’s heart skipped a beat, she hadn’t felt nervous earlier, but now she remembered how Qin Yize had held her hand and applied the medicine.

Qin Yize’s hands were not only well-defined but also filled with warmth.

Unlike her hands, which at the moment, she didn’t know whether it was due to nerves or their natural state, felt frighteningly cold at the fingertips.

Gu Qiaoqiao really couldn’t figure out how those threads of spiritual energy were spilling out from such ice-cold fingertips?

And where did this spiritual energy exist?

Gu Qiaoqiao couldn’t find the answer.

But she knew that this ability had saved the lives of the people in the living room.

Zhao Ying was now the team leader, and since she didn’t know him, Gu Qiaoqiao naturally knew nothing about his background.

Yet, reaching his position at his age had not been easy.

If he maintained his performance, he could progress even further.

But why would he do such a thing?

Did he bear a grudge against Qin Yize, those colleagues, or even her!

Gu Qiaoqiao didn’t understand at all.

At this moment, Gu Qiaoqiao felt as if she had entered a maze, wondering if the incidents involving her father and the events of today were connected?

Gu Qiaoqiao placed her hands on her forehead, forcing herself to think through some matters even though she preferred not to.

Gu Qiaoqiao began connecting the dots little by little.

If this person bore a grudge against her, then he must have been preparing for this day for a long time.

Yet, she had just arrived here.

Counting carefully, it had only been a little over a week.

And there was no way she could have crossed paths with this person.

Therefore, the only explanation was, could this person be associated with the ones behind Sun Chuxia?

At this thought, Gu Qiaoqiao suddenly startled.

Could it be?

Could that be the case?

How powerful was this person, capable of extending his reach into the base!

Was he unaware that investigating this would be easy?

Thinking this way, Gu Qiaoqiao felt her logic waver.

If he really bore a personal grudge or perhaps despised her because of Qin Yize.

It wouldn’t warrant such drastic measures.

If he truly had such capability, wouldn’t killing her silently have settled it all?

So, was this person grudging against Qin Yize, framing him?

But although they couldn’t escape implication in this matter, it would ultimately be cleared up.

After all, no one would be foolish enough to dig their own grave.

Inviting colleagues to one’s home for a meal and then blatantly poisoning them doesn’t make sense, and neither would the senior leaders believe such an implausible thing.

They would soon clear their names from suspicion.

Why wouldn’t he be afraid?

At this thought, Gu Qiaoqiao suddenly remembered the news she had seen on television and in newspapers in her past life.

Her heart sank momentarily.

If analyzed with normal reasoning, the person had put the poison in the pot, and the poison must have been colorless and tasteless.

Since the other individuals had not reacted at all.

Luh Fei too was sharp-witted; he didn’t notice anything off when he was about to eat the meat, suggestive that the poison was a very sophisticated one.

Moreover, this pot of meat must have been very popular.

After all, in this era, it was not possible to indulge in meat and fish every day.

And life in the Northern Border City was inherently tough.

So none of the meat and potatoes would have been left behind.

Thus, the result would naturally follow.

Possibly including Qin Yize, the ten members from the base present in the living room, the core strength of the base, would all be poisoned to death.

All experiments would essentially end.

And the person’s plan could be considered successful.

The life of one person in exchange for so many, even if he were to die, it would be worth it.

Therefore, the person behind him would not be someone who admired Qin Yize.
