Observing celestial phenomena, she was struck by lightning.
Perhaps there is no one more unlucky than Jiang Ran, a grandmaster of the mysterious gates.
Just after traveling through time...
Chapter 193 Rescue
Upon hearing this, Gu Nan nodded slightly and replied in a low voice, "Okay."
After hearing this, Si Yanxiao hung up the phone. His gaze fell on the front, his expression slightly serious, and his eyes became even more profound.
There are many suspicious points about Jiang Yuechen. Upon closer examination, although the matter seems to have nothing to do with him, there is a vague sense that they are related.
Take Bai Zhuwei's case as an example. Their relationship was common knowledge before, but now it is still unknown whether Bai Zhuwei is alive or dead.
Jiang Ran always gets ahead of him in everything; where does she get her information from?
Bai Zhuwei has no effect on anyone else, but poses a great threat to Jiang Ran.
Thinking of this, Si Yanxiao's eyes sharpened, a cold glint flashed across his face, and then he stepped on the gas and sped away.
Although the Jiang Group is also a family business, it is vastly different from the Si Group, and its industries are spread throughout neighboring cities.
Since finding Jiang Ran, Jiang Yuechen has not returned home. Instead, he has set up a branch company here and has recently been dealing with related matters.
Si Yanxiao didn't go to his residence, but drove straight to the company. The receptionist downstairs stopped him: "Hello, do you have an appointment?"
Upon hearing this, Si Yanxiao was taken aback, not expecting that his newly established company had already begun to take shape. He then slowly shook his head and replied in a deep voice, "No."
"I'm sorry, but we cannot enter without a reservation," the receptionist explained politely.
Upon hearing this, Si Yanxiao pursed his lips slightly, a hint of displeasure flashing across his face.
It was always incredibly difficult for others to see him; he never imagined he would be turned away himself one day.
Just as he was at a loss, a thought suddenly struck him, and a figure appeared in his mind. He then said, "I've come to see him because I need to. I'm here to visit him at his sister's request."
"Little sister?" The receptionist looked surprised, then asked, "What's her name?"
"Jiang Ran," Si Yanxiao replied slowly. Upon hearing this, the receptionist's face flashed with understanding, and she quickly responded, "Oh, I see. President Jiang did indeed instruct that if Miss Jiang came, she should be allowed to enter immediately."
"But you..."
He paused slightly as he spoke, but the implication was crystal clear.
It's obvious they're saying he doesn't have enough say on his own, and who knows if it's true or not? That's why they won't let him pass.
Si Yanxiao listened, a cold glint flashing in his eyes. He then took out his phone and made a video call to Jiang Ran, briefly explaining the reason before handing the phone to the front desk.
Jiang Yuechen had placed Jiang Ran's photo among the photos of the company's senior executives beforehand, so that everyone could see it. The receptionist was no exception and recognized her as soon as she met her.
He quickly replied, "Yes, Miss Jiang, I understand."
Si Yanxiao hadn't expected the system here to be so rigorous. After hanging up the video call, he heard the receptionist explain a few things, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Yuechen valued Jiang Ran so much that he directly transferred 40% of the branch company's shares to her name, making her the largest shareholder of the branch company.
This further solidified his earlier suspicion that Jiang Yuechen's attitude towards Jiang Ran meant he might be willing to go to any lengths to orchestrate these events for her.
Thinking of this, Si Yanxiao's eyes darkened, his brows furrowed slightly, and a look of seriousness flashed across his face.
If Jiang Yuechen really did this, was Jiang Ran aware of it?
Before he could finish his thoughts, the elevator had already reached the top floor. Si Yanxiao stepped out and headed straight for the president's office.
With slightly bent fingers, he gently knocked on the door, but there was no response from inside.
The receptionist clearly said that Jiang Yuechen came to the company early this morning to handle business and has not left since, so why hasn't he replied yet?
Thinking of this, a look of doubt flashed across Si Yanxiao's face, and he knocked again.
Then, her brow furrowed slightly, a bad premonition flashing through her mind, and she pushed open the door and went in.
What came into view was Jiang Yuechen crawling on the ground, preparing to crawl towards the door, looking extremely pathetic.
Seeing this, Si Yanxiao's face flashed with surprise. He quickly stepped forward to support him. Jiang Yuechen's face was pale and his mind was somewhat unclear. He looked up at Si Yanxiao, but his eyes were unfocused.
She then fainted and collapsed onto Si Yanxiao.
Upon seeing this scene, Si Yanxiao frowned, never expecting to encounter such a situation so "coincidentally".
They quickly helped him up and carried him on their backs to the hospital.
The receptionist saw that Si Yanxiao had just gone upstairs and when he came down, there was someone on his back. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be Jiang Yuechen!
A look of surprise flashed across his eyes, and he quickly stepped forward to ask, "What...what's going on?!"
Si Yanxiao's expression hardened. Before he could respond, he directly instructed, "Call the nearest hospital and tell them to make arrangements as soon as possible."
"Okay..." The receptionist quickly picked up the phone and made a call, explaining the situation.
Si Yanxiao disregarded his own doubts and quickly helped him into the car, then drove him to the hospital.
When he arrived, the emergency room staff outside had already prepared a stretcher and oxygen, and they took him directly to the emergency room.
Meanwhile, Jiang Ran was also restless at the hospital. Twenty minutes had passed since Si Yanxiao arrived at the company, but he still hadn't replied.
He claimed he was going to visit on his behalf, but now there's been no response at all.
Jiang Ran's brow furrowed, and a bad premonition flashed through her mind.
Just in case, I picked up my phone and called Jiang Yuechen, but it was still busy. I called Si Yanxiao to inquire, but no one answered. It was still the same.
Unable to suppress her worry, Jiang Ran's eyes narrowed, and she quickly got up, took out three copper coins, and began to perform divination using the oldest method.
Since the fire, her spiritual energy was depleted, but although it was replenished by the "Emperor's Qi," she has been in an unstable period. Her spiritual energy easily overflows in her body, and if she is not careful, it will gather in her limbs and bones, but cannot be concentrated in her dantian.
This would lead to general weakness, so she has been using the most primitive methods lately.
The copper coin fell to the ground with a thud, and Jiang Ran's expression changed drastically. This divination was clearly an ominous sign.
Seeing this, a deep worry welled up in his eyes, and in a panic, he prepared to use a compass to calculate the direction.
Not long after I left the hospital, my phone suddenly rang again.
Jiang Ran glanced down at the contact name, hurriedly answered the phone, and asked directly, "Where are you?"
Si Yanxiao gave her an address and was about to explain what had happened when Jiang Ran hung up the phone. A busy signal immediately came from the receiver.
Upon hearing this, Si Yanxiao's eyes turned cold. Knowing the worries in her heart, he unusually refrained from arguing with her.
Jiang Ran headed straight for the hospital, but couldn't find Jiang Yuechen when she arrived. After asking around, she learned that he was in the emergency room.
He hurried toward the emergency room, and as he passed the stairwell, he caught a glimpse of a familiar figure. He paused slightly, stopped, and turned to look.
Si Yanxiao slowly exhaled a ring of white smoke, which made his features appear even more handsome.
Si Yanxiao seemed to notice a gaze fixed on him, and when he looked up, he was staring directly into Jiang Ran's eyes.
Their eyes met, Si Yanxiao pursed his lips slightly, took another deep drag of his cigarette, and slowly walked towards Jiang Ran.
Jiang Ran looked up at him seriously, a strange glint in her eyes.
It's clearly a very roguish move, but when he does it, it has a unique charm. Could it be that this is due to his good looks?
After finishing her thoughts, Jiang Ran lowered her eyes slightly, concealing the expression in them.
Si Yanxiao walked slowly to her, his lips slightly pursed, his eyes full of scrutiny.
Jiang Ran acted as if she hadn't seen anything and asked directly, "Why were you sent to the hospital for no reason?"
No wonder she was so restless; it turned out there were signs all along.
Upon hearing this, Si Yanxiao slightly furrowed his brows, parted his thin lips, and then recounted the scene. Jiang Ran listened, and her heart skipped a beat.
Even though I knew I was fine after being taken to the hospital, I still couldn't help feeling a lingering fear.
Seeing the strange look on Jiang Ran's face, Si Yanxiao's eyes sharpened. He hesitated for a moment, but still asked the question directly.
"What exactly happened?"
Upon hearing this, a hint of doubt flashed in Jiang Ran's eyes. She then slowly shook her head and replied in a low voice, "I don't know what happened either."
Upon hearing this, a cold glint flashed across Si Yanxiao's face, and his expression towards Jiang Ran was meaningful.
Jiang Ran noticed his expression and a hint of doubt welled up in her heart. She then asked, "What do you mean by asking that?"
