The stone wasn't thrown very hard; it only hit about half a meter in front of Jiang Tingzhou.
Xu Wan only looked at the direction from which the stone had been thrown after seeing it land on the ground.
A grown man wearing a black windbreaker is running quickly into the distance!
The restaurant's security guards immediately gave chase.
The security guard rushed over, "Sir, are you alright?"
Jiang Tingzhou protected Xu Wan and told the security guard, "I'll leave my phone number at the front desk. Once the person is caught, hand him over to the police first, and then notify me as soon as possible."
"Don't worry, we'll definitely catch him, and we'll notify you immediately." The security guard glanced at Jiang Tingzhou's car, straightened his posture, and said, "Let me take you to the entrance."
After this incident, Jiang Tingzhou was a little worried and asked Xu Wan, "Should we go to another place?"
"No need. Maybe someone's having some bad luck in life and then they saw your nice car and acted impulsively." Xu Wan looked up at the restaurant right in front of her. "Since we're already here, let's eat here."
The two had just sat down in the private room when the restaurant manager walked in first.
He walked up to Jiang Tingzhou, bowed slightly, and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Jiang, our security guards were unable to catch the person who threw the stone at your car, but we called the police immediately, and they will be here soon to retrieve the video footage."
Jiang Tingzhou nodded: "Thank you for your hard work."
Xu Wan also felt a little uneasy.
She initially thought it might have been thrown away by someone, but that person just ran away. Could it be that someone was targeting them?
Can……
It's really strange that they resorted to throwing stones.
After the restaurant manager left, Jiang Tingzhou looked at Xu Wan, who was staring blankly at the menu across from him, and reached out to take her hand. "Don't worry, nothing's wrong. It's probably just like you said, that she saw my car and got a bad idea."
Jiang Tingzhou and Xu Wan share some similar views.
If the goal is to target him, there's absolutely no need to throw stones; scattering nails on the ground beforehand would be much faster.
Even so, this little incident made the meal less than pleasant for the two of them.
The meal is over.
When the two men reached the front desk, the restaurant manager came over and said, "Mr. Jiang, the police's opinion is that no substantial damage was caused, so they will not be handling the case for the time being. However, our security camera at the entrance captured the other party's face. Would you two like to take a look?"
Xu Wan understood the police.
If you call the police just for throwing a stone, the police might really be overwhelmed.
Jiang Tingzhou thought for a moment and said, "Let's take a look."
The manager took two people to the security room and pulled up the surveillance footage from that time.
This is a high-end restaurant, and the surrounding area is under surveillance with almost 360-degree coverage and very clear images.
The manager pressed the pause button when the man was facing the monitor, then zoomed in until the entire screen was filled with the man in the windbreaker's face before stopping.
"This is the person. Do you two know him?" the restaurant manager asked, then added, "If needed, we can send this video to your email, or you can take a picture and save it."
Xu Wan stared at the man on the monitor screen, and after only a second or two, she blurted out, "It's Xie Ning."
The last time she saw Xie Ning was a few months ago.
At the time, the man was dressed smartly and neatly, with short hair and fair skin. Judging from his appearance alone, he was a reserved and handsome person.
Even when his chaotic private life was exposed in court, he still tried to maintain his dignity.
However, Xie Ning in the video seemed like a completely different person. He was wearing a windbreaker with the hood obscuring his hairstyle, his skin was patchy with bruises and white marks, his face was covered in acne scars, his cheeks were sunken, and his chin was covered in stubble. He was completely different from the person he was a few months ago.
Jiang Tingzhou also remembered, "Is he your friend's ex-husband in Yinyi Town?"
"Yes." Xu Wan took her phone out of her pocket. "I'll call Shuangshuang."
With Xie Ning in this state, Xu Wan's biggest worry is Yu Shuangshuang.
