Chapter 246 The person is gone

"Why? I can pay more."

Inside a small restaurant.

The surroundings were suddenly unusually quiet.

Under Jiang Wanning's gaze, the middle-aged detective stammered for a moment, and it took him a while to find his voice again in a dry voice.

“It’s not about the money at all.”

The man took a deep breath.

Even now, the fear in his eyes is still shockingly intense.

At the same time, he was cursing in his heart.

I am so unlucky.

I finally got rid of those people's surveillance and hid for so long before coming back. My original intention was to take some small and scattered orders and spend my old age in peace.

But he didn't expect that the first commission he received after his comeback was related to the Shen family!

Jiang Wanning didn't know the gloomy man with the tattoo on his wrist.

But he remembered clearly that night, the rainy night when his right hand was crippled, in that dark and damp hotel room, there was this man staring at him with eyes as cold as a poisonous snake.

Although there was a difference in age between him and the young man in the photo Jiang Wanning gave him, he would never make a mistake.

These two faces are clearly the same person!

It was as if the intense pain of having one of his hands cut off was revived, and a huge fear came over him, causing the middle-aged man to stand up suddenly. "No reason, I just can't do it. Madam, please seek help from someone else."

As he said this, he didn't care that his big move had attracted the attention of the restaurant staff. He grabbed the coat he had just taken off and prepared to leave in a hurry.

His intense reaction was fully noticed by Jiang Wanning who was standing in front of him.

While narrowing her eyes dangerously, she stood up without hesitation, blocking the middle-aged man and stopping him: "You know this person, right?"

It was clearly a question, but Jiang Wanning's tone was surprisingly firm.

She stared at the man in front of her with raised eyebrows, her powerful aura fully revealed at this moment: "If I'm not mistaken, this person is the one who cut off your hand."

As Jiang Wanning said this, her eyes fell meaningfully on the detective's empty sleeves.

It was like a substance, and it seemed like a sight that could see through everything, making the middle-aged man feel uneasy.

He never imagined that the woman who had seemed so amiable, gentle and kind just now would suddenly change her expression to be so terrifying.

At this moment, the powerful pressure Jiang Wanning brought to him was no less than that of the terrifying man at that time, and it almost made him cry out loud: "I beg you, ma'am, I really can't say it, please don't embarrass me, okay?"

The man said this and wanted to walk past Jiang Wanning and leave again.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Wanning suddenly spoke from behind him: "You are short of money, right?"

Jiang Wanning stared at the man's suddenly stiff back, her eyes flashing.

"Like you just said, you nearly sacrificed your life for the money when you started this business, yet you still chose to make a comeback. I guess you have a compelling reason to continue."

"Let me guess, is it for your wife, or your child? Or your parents' medical expenses?"

"No matter what, I can help you completely solve the troubles caused by this money."

"It's enough for you to just tell me who this person is."

The middle-aged man who was about to leave was completely frozen in place because of Jiang Wanning's words.

His originally gloomy back seemed to become much older and more hunched at this moment.

Finally, the hand hanging by his side unconsciously clenched and unclenched, and then clenched tightly again: "Is what you said true?"

"Of course." Afraid that the other party still didn't believe her, Jiang Wanning took out a business card with her name and phone number printed on it from her bag and handed it to the man.

The name of the acting CEO of Jiang Group that followed right below Jiang Wanning's name made the man's pupils shrink suddenly.

After that, he seemed to have made up his mind. He took a deep breath, then looked at Jiang Wanning and spoke again: "Okay, I'll tell you everything..."

“…”

At the moment when the middle-aged man slowly uttered the name, Jiang Wanning also widened her eyes in disbelief.

…

In the blink of an eye, three days passed.

Seeing that Chen Haishu had not yet woken up from his coma, Jiang Wanning could no longer wait while looking at Chen Canghui's body.

He took the initiative to help people with the funeral arrangements.

Because he jumped off a building, Chen Canghui's appearance after his death was not really good-looking.

The old man who was so gentle and kind in his lifetime is just a handful of earth after his death.

When Jiang Wanning came out of the funeral home, she unexpectedly received a WeChat message from Yu Nanxi.

She said: Mr. Chen has woken up.

After carefully checking the time, I realized that the message was from almost two hours ago.

Jiang Wanning, who was about to walk to the gate of the funeral home, raised her head as if she had sensed something and met the cloudy eyes of the old man who hurried to the door.

He seemed to have been in a hurry and was still wearing the hospital gown that he had not had time to change out of. On his skinny arm, there was an indwelling needle that had not been replaced and was bleeding faintly.

The old man who had been proud and stubborn all his life was now staring at the wooden box in Jiang Wanning's hand, as helpless as a child who had done something wrong.

After a while, he finally seemed to have found his voice and spoke dryly, "Wan Ning girl...was Cang Hui pretty when she left?"

Jiang Wanning could tell that Chen Haishu's voice was hoarse due to long-term dehydration.

When Chen Haishu just woke up in the hospital, he heard the news that Chen Canghui was going to be cremated.

I didn't care about anything else for a moment and hurried over.

But even though he tried his best, he still couldn't see his lover for the last time.

Chen Canghui was very beautiful when she was young. When she was a girl, she cared about whether she was beautiful or not, just like other girls in the world.

Now that she was gone like this, Chen Haishu had heard that people who jumped to their death usually died in a very miserable way. He really didn't want his lover to die in such a horrible and scary way.

She is such a beautiful and gentle person, so she should find a funeral makeup artist to restore her best appearance.

In this way, when she is reincarnated in the next life, she may be able to live more freely and unrestrainedly than in this life.

Jiang Wanning stared at Chen Haishu's figure, which looked even older than a few days ago. She couldn't bear it and nodded, "Of course he's beautiful."

"Don't worry, Grandpa Chen, I found the best makeup artist for grandma. When grandma left, she left with a smile on her face."

"Um."

After a dull response, Chen Haishu finally reached out his hand to Jiang Wanning: "Can I hug her again?"
