To pluck Shi Wang, the aloof flower of the legal world, Jiang Wannuan relentlessly pursued him for three years.
Hearing he liked gentle and virtuous girls, she was willing to hide her identit...
Chapter 325 Pregnancy
The person who was alive just now suddenly lost his warmth at this moment.
Ellie didn't even have time to react or say her last words before she died with her eyes open, falling into Ai Heng's arms.
"Who fired the gun? Who?!"
Everything happened so suddenly that even Shen Jingbai, who was standing next to him, was shocked by the scene. He asked harshly the moment he realized what was happening.
He originally thought that perhaps a gun went off accidentally during the fight between the two sides, and Ellie was accidentally injured.
But looking at the neat and well-placed wound between the latter's eyebrows, it was obvious that the shooter had come with a purpose.
In addition, Jiang Wenzhou on the opposite side also had a look of surprise.
There were no fools present. The moment their eyes met, they all understood in their hearts that there was a third group of people hiding in the darkness where they were fighting.
However, the specific identity of the other party and the purpose of his actions are still unknown.
Realizing the same thing, the two groups who had just been fighting fiercely became hesitant at this moment.
At this moment, the Jiang family, who already had the advantage in numbers and dominance, quickly turned the situation around and took control of all the people on Shen Jingbai's side.
One wrong move and the whole game is lost.
With the capture of Shen Jingbai, the final mastermind behind this incident, it seemed as if everything had truly fulfilled what Ellie had just said: "The dust has settled."
Everyone accepted their final outcome.
Except Ai Heng.
The elegant middle-aged man completely lost his usual composure at this moment. He knelt on the ground in embarrassment, looking at the cold body of his sister in his arms in disbelief.
He and Ellie have been dependent on each other since childhood, and the other is his only relative in this world.
No matter how hard and difficult life was before, the two of them comforted and supported each other and managed to get through it. But now, he was suddenly left alone, and it was as if the rest of his life had collapsed at this moment. He could no longer see any hope, which made him heartbroken.
"Jiang Wenzhou!"
On the eve of Ai Heng's final act of being dragged away, his eyes were red as he glanced at Jiang Wenzhou with genuine anger, gritting his teeth and saying, "You killed my sister, and I will not let this go."
Even after he was taken away and completely disappeared, Jiang Wenzhou's face was still filled with anger: "This guy, I used to think he was quite smart, but now why can't he see the situation clearly?"
"He doesn't even need to think about it. If I really wanted to do something to these two siblings, would I have to wait until now?"
"When they first came out of the orphanage and started working, they were so pitiful. If I hadn't been kind enough to give them a meal, would they still be where they are today?"
"I haven't even bothered to think about him joining forces with outsiders to deal with the Jiang family, but he's already yelling at me? I'm afraid the term ungrateful wolf refers to people like them, right?!"
As everyone knows, Jiang Wenzhou has always been a person who never shows his emotions. He has a nonchalant look like a fox, and his face is always smiling. It is rare to see him get angry, and it is rare to see him as angry as today.
After all, from the scene just now, any discerning person could see that it was not done by Jiang Wenzhou's people.
But it was really depressing that Ai Heng, who was not stupid, was deceived by the other party.
Especially this brother and sister, it must be said that Jiang Wenzhou indeed saved their lives from the gates of hell back then.
So, considering that he had been stabbed in the back today, it was no wonder that he felt like his breath was stuck in his throat, unable to go up or down, and was feeling suffocated.
Jiang Wanning also shook her head at this time: "Ai Li is Ai Heng's only relative. She suddenly suffered such a change. I think Ai Heng must have found it difficult to accept it. That's why he didn't think too much about it and took out all his resentment on you. After he calms down and realizes what happened, he should be fine."
"...Okay, since what you said makes sense, I won't argue with him for now."
Jiang Wenzhou thought about it carefully. If Jiang Wanning had fallen into his arms like that, his emotions would probably be even more intense than Ai Heng's.
After putting himself in the other person's shoes, he quickly reconciled with himself.
"Have you found out who fired the shot?"
At this moment, Shadow, who Jiang Wenzhou had just sent to investigate the shooting scene across the street, returned. Upon hearing Jiang Wanning's question, Shadow shook his head in frustration and said, "Sorry, Miss, I didn't find anything."
"The other party clearly came prepared and had a strong anti-reconnaissance awareness. After completing this one task, they disappeared."
"Okay, I get it. Shadow, go take care of other things first. Thank you for your hard work during this period."
The expected answer made Jiang Wanning stare at Ai Li's body being carried away, and she felt an indescribable strangeness.
After all, the two of them did have a pretty good relationship as superiors and subordinates. While she felt grief in her heart for the latter's sudden death, she was even more surprised by what he said before he died.
Based on her understanding of Ellie, she would never say such a thing for no reason.
It seemed as if she had anticipated this outcome, which was why her expression at the end was so resolute and sad.
But what kind of truth is hidden behind this is something they don’t know now.
After dealing with the matters of Shen Jingbai and the Ai brothers and sisters, the people Xie Yanchuan had left behind to monitor the situation on Shen Zhixun's side also sent back the news at this time.
They said they destroyed the Tonghua Factory, and it turned out to be exactly as the informant had reported: a pharmaceutical factory disguised as a cotton mill.
Xie Yanchuan's men captured several senior executives there and learned from them that Shen Zhixun had about dozens of similar factories in Xingguo, and they also sent people to seal them off.
The final results were remarkable, but unfortunately, Shen Zhixun, the most critical figure behind all this, cunningly fled the scene early and disappeared without a trace.
After that, life seemed to return to normal.
Quiet days always pass quickly, and in the blink of an eye, several days have passed since the few people dealt with the matter of Shen Jingbai and the Ai brothers and sisters.
In accordance with the previous agreement with Jiang Wenzhou, Jiang Wanning planned to meet with Qi Huaian on the eve of taking up her post at Jiang's branch in Xingguo.
After all, the other party is an old employee who has worked diligently in Chuangtu for many years. She can't just say she is resigning and leave without any explanation. If that happens, she would be a failure as a manager of the company.
So Jiang Wanning also planned to take advantage of this rare opportunity of peace to communicate with the other party, preferably trying her best to retain him.
However, she didn't expect that when she had finished packing and had breakfast and was about to go out, she suddenly felt nauseous.
