Chapter 350 All roads lead to the west
Xiang Nuan was recuperating in the hospital for a full week. People came to see her in an endless stream every day. They didn't even talk about resting, but the hospital almost turned into a reception room.
The news of her accident bombarded all major platforms and remained on the trending list for a whole week. Before the investigation results of the public security department were released, various media outlets had already published hundreds of interpretations, including what was the inside story, who was behind the scenes, what was the end of the international forces, and how it was all fantasy.
Jiang Yunhui adopted a "three no" attitude towards this matter of not responding, ignoring or refuting the rumors. In fact, he had noticed something unusual about Xiang Nuan since he woke up.
He spoke less and less, and as she got better, he spent less and less time in the hospital, sometimes going whole days without seeing him. Xiang Nuan felt vaguely worried, wondering if he was doing something stupid.
And, there's one weird thing. Jiang Chao never appeared from beginning to end. Logically speaking, he was the one most involved, so he should come and explain the situation to her anyway. What happened to that phone call? Who did he call? What conditions did he agree to? This should be more or less explained to her as the client. But he was also silent.
When Shen Feng and Feifei came to visit her, she asked a few insidious questions. They only said that they had never met Mr. Jiang and didn't know if he was busy with the new company.
Something wasn't right. Xiang Nuan instinctively felt that they must be hiding something from her.
"Uncle Huo, Yunhui...are you busy with the show recently?" On the day of discharge, there was still no sign of him, Xiang Nuan couldn't help but ask.
"Yes, the young master has not been to France during this period. He has been in contact with them through video calls. Coordination is relatively difficult."
Oh—Xiang Nuan stopped asking. She felt that Uncle Huo was lying, which meant that he not only knew about it but was also involved in it. She couldn't find out why by asking him.
"I'm fine now. His affairs have been delayed for so long. Let him get busy when he gets back." Xiang Nuan chose to follow the words.
They quickly completed the formalities and finally returned home.
Xiang Nuan thought Jiang Yunhui would rush out to greet her, but he was not at home at all. Thinking about it, if he had time, why wouldn't he go to the hospital to pick her up?
"Uncle Huo, you and Ran Ran are at home, I want to go out."
"No, madam, you can't go anywhere during this period, you can only rest at home."
Xiang Nuan's eyes widened, thinking he heard wrongly. She smiled and said: "I'm fine now. The doctor said I was fine before I was discharged from the hospital, right?"
Uncle Huo shook his head, not allowing any excuse.
"Is this what Yunhui means?" she asked.
"That's what I meant too."
"Aren't you going to lock me in your house?"
Uncle Huo frowned, hearing the displeasure in her tone. He originally wanted to persevere to the end, but she was Xiang Nuan, a wife who treated him like family.
He sighed softly: "How could it be? If you insist on going out, Ran Ran and I will accompany you."
Xiang Nuan began to realize that something was wrong. Is this their stress response? They blame all the faults on themselves, and then all the results of their reflection fall on the plan of never letting her out of sight?
Xiang Nuan also sighed and took Uncle Huo's arm: "I won't hide it from you, there are too many doubts about this matter, and I want to find out."
"You want to find Jiang Chao?"
"Yes."
Uncle Huo lowered his eyelids and hesitated for a moment before saying, "The young master will be with him. You can just ask him when he comes back in the evening."
Xiang Nuan was stunned, and his hand slipped from his arm: "So you know the cause and effect?" Uncle Huo nodded: "It is speculation, but it is almost the same, but there is no evidence."
"Is it Chen Weiming?"
Uncle Huo looked at her. Although he was a little surprised, he could guess the answer based on her intelligence and it was expected.
"Yes."
"Is he alone? Or is there an accomplice?"
"Still checking."
"Since there is no evidence, confrontation must be useless. What can the two of them do together?"
"This... To punish a person, there is not only one way to punish violent crimes, but all roads lead to the West."
When these words came out of Uncle Huo's mouth, people felt an eerie chill. What he relied on for following Jiang Yunhui for so many years was not his cooking skills. Xiang Nuan remembered that there were only a few descriptions of him in the book, and he was astute, deep, and bottomless. She finally understood the lesson.
"Yunhui..."
"When the young master comes back, he will tell you." Uncle Huo put on a warm smile and changed the topic: "I made soup when I left home. You go take a good shower and change into comfortable clothes. I'll give you some Sheng.”
This book was recently updated in ##六@@九@@书@@!! Updated!
Apart from nodding in agreement, Xiang Nuan couldn't think of anything else to do.
She waited patiently for Jiang Yunhui to come back, but until late at night Ranran had already gone to bed and there was no sign of him. She tossed and turned on the bed, unable to fall asleep peacefully, so she put on her pajamas and went to the study.
She really wanted to call Jiang Yunhui, but her intuition told her that even if she got through, it would just be a lie. It would be better to look him in the eyes and ask him face to face.
She lay down on the sofa, her thoughts racing. Suddenly she remembered the first time she came to this room, and the long-forgotten contract. She stood up and rummaged under the desk.
The place where Wan Qing's belongings used to be kept was empty. Although the secrets contained in the small box had long been rummaged through by her, she still missed those items. She really wanted to see Wan Qing's photos again. When Jiang Yunhui was taking care of himself in the hospital, he didn't know if Wan Qing's face appeared in his mind.
There must be, she couldn't get rid of the thought.
Suddenly she hit her forehead hard. Don't get too close to the point. What if... She was frightened by her thoughts and felt a chill on her back.
What if she is too focused and travels back to Wanqing? Give her a chance to be reborn, and then desperately prevent Ran Ran from being born...
Oh yeah, that’s crazy! She slumped down on the ground and quickly let the crazy thoughts dissipate from her mind.
You can only wear it once, right? She looked up at the ceiling. We don’t want to experience it with multiple characters. Since we are wearing one character, it has to have a beginning and an end, right? ! Restarting and switching identities at any time is not what a good screenwriter should do!
She secretly got out from under the table, silently apologizing for her thoughts just now.
What about the contract? No trace either.
A long time ago, when she wanted to revise and supplement the contract, she had to look for it, but Jiang Yunhui was so good at hiding things that she didn't find it at that time.
Could this guy have acquired his skills by hiding his private money? !
Ah - sin, sin, why do I always think of Wan Qing for no reason! Wrong, wrong!
Finding nothing, she lay down on the sofa dejectedly and began to stare at the rows of bookcases in a daze. Slowly, she felt that her eyelids were becoming drowsy, and the things she could see were getting blurry, and finally she closed her eyes...
