Well, he called his bodyguard, Zeng, and learned everything Chen Rou had done at the hospital.
He was quite wronged, because although Chen Rou suspected him of murdering his brother and being the mastermind behind it all, he was completely unaware of everything from Nie Zhao's kidnapping to the bombing in Central Harbour last night.
When Ah Zeng told him about Chen Rou's transformation after she returned, he didn't believe it.
Right now, he was preparing to go to the board meeting, standing in the corridor, listening to Ah Zeng describe how tyrannical Chen Rou was when she pointed a gun at his father's head. Nie Yao not only didn't believe it, but also found it unbelievable: "Ah Zeng, I know Miss Chen too well. She has never touched a gun since she was a child. She wouldn't even dare to step on a small ant. You think she would dare to point a gun at my father?"
Ah Zeng was in the bathroom at the moment. As a professional bodyguard, he had a strong ability to observe. He said, "Not only did Miss Chen almost shoot Chairman Nie last night, but she also very forcefully drove away Uncle Ming and Secretary An today."
Nie Yao hesitated for a moment before saying, "She suspects that the person who wanted to kill A-Zhao is in the Nie family?"
He wasn't stupid, and said, "Is she suspecting me?"
As a bodyguard, Ah Zeng could go to the restroom, but he couldn't be away for too long. He said, "That's the situation. Second Master, you can decide for yourself. I should go back to my post."
Actually, it's clear from Nie Rong's specific instruction that Nie Yao didn't need to come to the hospital that the old man also suspected him.
Nie Yao and Nie Zhao are brothers, and they were born in the same year. Nie Yao is only a little over a month older than Nie Zhao. He had heard Nie Rong say since he was a child that the head of the Nie family would be the eldest brother Nie Zhen or the third brother Nie Yao, but not him.
Nie Yao wasn't without his grievances, but he was able to adjust himself and process them internally.
But that only concerns the person in charge.
Nie Yao felt uncomfortable when his father suspected him of messing with his brothers, because he hadn't actually done that.
However, he was naturally different from Nie Zhao, who was rigid and meticulous in his work. He was a straightforward, gentle, and good-tempered person. In his opinion, as long as he did not really hurt his younger brother, he was not afraid of being suspected and could just wait for the truth. He was more curious about whether the gentle, shy, and cute little Arou would really point a gun at her father.
How could a young girl, who had even been a Miss Hong Kong contestant, do something so rude?
Nie Yao was very curious and really wanted to go to the hospital to see, but he couldn't because his father wouldn't allow him to go. So he could only wait and wait for news.
Leaving him aside, let's return to Chen Rou's side.
She finally got a good night's sleep last night, so she's naturally full of energy today.
Of course, everyone was busy today, and before they knew it, it was nine o'clock in the morning. Chen Rou found a chair, crossed her legs, and sat at the entrance of the intensive care unit like a security guard.
Of course, to others, she just seemed to be sitting idly, lost in thought.
But in fact, she had been observing the bodyguards of the Nie family. There were eight of them in total. She knew their names and their general family relationships. At the same time, she also observed their clothes and expressions to figure out if any of them were traitors who had been turned by the mastermind.
After looking the bodyguards over one by one, Uncle Ming, the butler, returned.
He also carried a takeout bag with two sandwiches and a can of coffee inside.
He handed the items to Chen Rou and said, "The operating room is a closed space with only two exits. We all changed the locks to the Nie family's locks, and I have all the keys. Before the Swiss medical team arrived, I was the only one who..."
Seeing Chen Rou reach out her hand, he readily agreed and handed her the key: "Only you can open this."
Then hand her the coffee and say, "We're all going to have a tough day, have a cup of coffee to perk us up."
Chen Rou took the coffee, smelled it, and said with a smile, "Thank you, Uncle Ming!"
Uncle Ming smiled bitterly: "Although Third Master is the master and I am the servant, I watched him grow up. I have no son, and I love him even more than my own son. Let's help him get through this difficult time together."
This is how a smart person behaves.
When it comes to Nie Zhao, no one who isn't a fool would trust Mei Lu and her son. Nie Rong himself is also ill, and if something happens to him in an emergency, he could suffer an acute cerebral infarction or myocardial infarction and die. In that case, there's no way he could care about Nie Zhao. At this point, Uncle Ming, like Chen Rou, also wants to find someone who is both capable and trustworthy.
He had certainly assessed the situation in his mind and felt that Chen Rou was more trustworthy, so he sided with her.
He handed her the breakfast and then had to go to the airport.
Chen Rou, true to her nature, crossed her legs and wolfed down the sandwich in one go.
In Hong Kong, especially in high society, tea and coffee are meant to be savored slowly. But she was different. Once the coffee wasn't too hot, she drank most of it in one gulp, then burped. She crumpled the sandwich wrapper into a ball and threw it away in front of a group of bodyguards.
Keep in mind that the nearest trash can to the intensive care unit is a full fifty meters away, and the wrapping paper is very light. A group of bodyguards watched her throw the paper, exchanged glances, and all guessed that she wouldn't be able to throw it in.
But her hand was so accurate, like a dart, that she threw the wrapper into the trash can.
In fact, even now, these bodyguards have not yet witnessed Chen Rou's skills. Because she has been too assertive and domineering, the bodyguards secretly speculated that the family head, Nie Rong, would deal with her sooner or later. At this moment, they were all wondering how long it would take to take her down.
But of course, they won't show it.
