There is always a busy crowd at the airport, dragging suitcases of various sizes and running through the various entrances and exits. There are laughter and farewells in their conversations, but a man with a cold face seems out of place among the crowd.
A black business car drove out of the airport, and sitting in the car was the man with a serious expression just now, Helian Rui.
Outside the window was the imperial capital that he had just left not long ago. Even he had not expected to come back so soon, but the moment he stepped into the imperial capital this time, he had an ominous premonition, always feeling that the clear sky was a precursor to a storm.
Inside the hospital surveillance ward.
Only Jiang Luoning, Fu Linxiao and A Xing were left here. Han Tianyu took Lu Zifan to deal with the plan that Jiang Luoning had mentioned yesterday. Jiang Linghao was hurriedly called to the Dongfang old house by Dongfang Han. Wilding disappeared at some point.
"Helian Rui has arrived in the imperial capital and should be on his way to the hospital from the airport." Ah Xing hung up Mu Yu's phone and said to the two people in the room with a serious face and a sad voice.
Jiang Luoning glanced at the time, picked up his phone and quickly typed something on the screen, then smiled; his eyes flashed with an ambiguous light.
"Ning'er, what are you thinking about?" Fu Linxiao noticed a different emotion in the girl's eyes and asked tentatively.
Jiang Luoning put away her phone and then noticed that everyone's eyes were on her. She touched her ear a little embarrassedly, with an expression as if she had been caught doing something bad. She just shook her head and didn't explain anything.
There was only one ward left in the surveillance footage in front of her. In order to facilitate care, Mrs. Dong placed Chen Xu and Dong Siqing together. The originally large and spacious VIP ward seemed ordinary after adding a bed and a bunch of testing equipment.
Dong Jiaxue's face was still a little pale. She sat on the sofa beside her, staring out the window in a daze. No one knew what she was thinking about, and she was particularly absent-minded. Mrs. Dong sat between the beds of Chen Xu and Dong Siqing. In just one night, her cheeks had become much thinner, and she no longer had the demeanor of the mistress of a noble family.
"Madam, please eat something. Otherwise, your body won't be able to bear it!" Aunt Mei stood aside holding a bowl of unknown tonic soup, her face full of worry.
Mrs. Dong seemed not to hear Aunt Mei's concern and continued to stare at the person on the bed in a daze. Time seemed to have stopped and there was no sound in the room.
After an unknown amount of time, Mrs. Dong's hoarse and low voice rang out, "Where is he?"
Aunt Mei naturally knew who he was referring to. She subconsciously turned her head to glance at Dong Jiaxue, who was still staring out the window in a daze. Seeing that she was not paying attention to the movement here, she took a step closer and lowered her voice to whisper in her ear, "He's on his way to the hospital."
There was still silence, and Mrs. Dong just blinked her eyes slightly as a response.
The vibration of the bodyguard's cell phone standing inside the door was particularly prominent in this quiet environment. After checking the message, he put the phone in his pocket, walked quickly to the woman, whispered a few words, and left.
"Aunt Mei, please send Jiaxue back first!"
Hearing this, the woman nodded and was about to wake up the girl who was still sitting there, but when she turned around, she saw Dong Jiaxue had already stood up and walked towards the door. When she reached the door, she forced a smile, but this smile coupled with her pale face made people look even more pitiful. However, Mrs. Dong didn't even give her a concerned look. She suppressed the bitterness in her heart and pretended to be well-behaved and sensible and said, "I can go back by myself. Siqing and Brother Xu still need someone to take care of them here."
All she got in response was the woman's nodding back, without even a word of warning.
At the elevator entrance, the distraught Dong Jiaxue passed by Helian Rui who was followed by his bodyguards; the girl looked back uncontrollably, and a strong curiosity drove her to stop in front of the elevator and not get off.
"Old man."
The door was pushed open, and Helian Rui entered the ward under the guidance of the bodyguard. Aunt Mei greeted the visitor respectfully and then tactfully left the room. In order to leave enough space for the two to talk, she also considerately took the two bodyguards at the door away when she reached the door.
"What's going on?"
After the people left, Helian Rui walked straight to the sofa and sat down. His face looked very bad, as if he was going to accuse someone. He spoke directly and questioned in a cold voice, without considering the woman's emotions at all.
The woman from the Dong family finally regained some of her senses. She stood up and walked to the sofa. Her expression was as respectful as that day at the Yunding Club, but there was no warmth in her words, as if she was a machine answering questions.
"Just like the news said, the landslide was too late to avoid."
Perhaps noticing the embarrassment on her face, Helian Rui's voice softened somewhat, but still remained emotionless. He continued in a deep voice, "She hasn't woken up yet."
Mrs. Dong still shook her head indifferently and said nothing.
The moment Helian Rui entered the ward, everyone in the monitoring room tensed up their nerves, fearing that they would miss anything in their conversation. Ah Xing even sat down on the floor, staring at the screen without blinking, her eyes full of ferocity, as if she wanted to eat the man alive.
"Oh, Xing! Have you figured out who Daisy's subordinate is that's in contact with Lillian?"
"Huh?" The young man was taken aback for a moment by the sudden question. When he returned to Dark Night yesterday, Mu Yu had already shown him and Han Tianyu the videos of Lillian at the Purple Gold Club. He wanted them to have an impression of these people so that they wouldn't be confused about who the other party was when they confronted each other in the future. After thinking for a moment, he realized what Jiang Luoning was referring to and immediately replied, "It's that sniper!"
Fu Linxiao also looked as if he had suddenly realized something and continued to ask, "So, was it the sniper who told Ding Yi about their meeting in Zijin?"
"Yeah, that's right! He was smart enough to show off to Ding Yi. He told him that Lillian had come to the capital and would be going to the Purple Gold Club soon. He also said that she would come find him when she was done!"
When it comes to this, Ah Xing suddenly became interested and talked for a long time, gesticulating as he recreated the situation at the scene. After listening to it, Jiang Luoning and Fu Linxiao finally understood the whole story and felt a little speechless.
It turned out that the sniper was usually arrogant. He didn't smoke or drink, and he always disliked the group of black-clad men who went on missions with him. He had a conceited feeling, so Lillian could coax him into a trance with just a few words. He thought that he had won the favor of the eldest lady with his own excellence, and he could rise to the top in the future and had beautiful daydreams. However, he knew that he was imprisoned by Fu Linxiao and others before he had been showing off for an hour, and his dream of becoming a prince consort was shattered.
