Chapter 127 The Madam Has Been Found
It was Lin Meizhen calling.
Ji Ying answered the phone.
Lin Meizhen sounded a little anxious on the phone.
"What should we do, Yingying? I just met with Ayan and we were accidentally seen by Madam Liang. Now she might be starting to suspect that Ayan's amnesia is fake."
Ji Ying glanced at Liang Yizhi subconsciously.
I quietly turned the phone volume down a little more.
"Didn't I tell you? How could this happen?"
Lin Meizhen cried on the other end of the line, "I miss him so much."
Ji Ying couldn't speak, "Don't worry, I'll come find you in a bit."
She hung up the phone and looked at Liang Yizhi.
The man drove calmly, seemingly unaware of her phone conversation.
"What did you just say... that you wanted me to give you?" Ji Ying asked.
Just as Liang Yizhi was about to speak, his phone rang. It was Xue Qin calling.
He turned on Bluetooth.
"Boss, the madam has been found."
Liang Yizhi was taken aback for a moment.
Xue Qin continued, "Just now, someone went to the 547 Hospital to inquire about the DNA sample matching results. The staff were on guard and asked her which day it was. It turned out to be the day Madam came for her blood test, and she was the only one there that day. She has already been detained."
"Okay, I understand."
Liang Yizhi hung up the phone calmly.
The car slowly came to a stop at the side of the road.
Ji Ying realized that he might have something important to say, and quickly said understandingly, "Then I'll get off here."
Liang Yizhi calmly took out a banknote from his wallet and said, "Buy me a bottle of water."
Ji Ying was stunned for a moment.
The man raised his chin. "Can't you shop?"
Ji Ying frowned, "You want to order me around?"
Liang Yizhi smiled and nodded.
Ji Ying realized she had been deluding herself, so she took the money from his hand and got out of the car.
Only after her figure disappeared at the supermarket entrance did Liang Yizhi take out a pack of cigarettes...
Ji Ying went to the supermarket for more than ten minutes, and when she came out, the sky was covered with dark clouds.
Liang Yizhi had just finished smoking a cigarette while leaning against the hood of the car.
Seeing her approach, he stubbed out his cigarette and threw it into the nearby trash can.
Ji Ying handed him the water, and Liang Yizhi took it, glancing at the sign.
"One yuan a bottle?"
Ji Ying nodded.
"What about the rest of the money?"
Ji Ying picked up the large bag in her hand and showed it to him, "I don't need any travel expenses?"
The remaining 99 yuan became her snacks.
Liang Yizhi was just teasing her, and this time the smile on his face became even more pronounced.
Having met so many times, this was the first time Ji Ying had seen him smile from the bottom of his heart.
It's...quite pretty.
Liang Yizhi turned and went to the driver's seat, and Ji Ying hurriedly followed him into the passenger seat.
She wondered if it was just her imagination, but every time he looked at her after the phone call, it seemed very deep.
"Ji Ying," this was the first time Liang Yizhi had called her by her full name, as far as he could remember, "I have an urgent matter to attend to and need to go there now."
Ji Ying subconsciously looked at the sky outside through the windshield, then looked at him in disbelief.
Those eyes clearly said: Why didn't you say it was going to rain?
Within seconds, Ji Ying's expression returned to normal. "My car is still in the parking lot near the party. We just left anyway, so could you give me a ride there?"
Liang Yizhi fastened his seatbelt. "Give me the car keys, and I'll find someone to drive it over for you. Send me the location where you want to park it."
Ji Ying glanced at him, didn't give him the car keys, and smiled as she opened the car door.
"Thank you for today."
They immediately became much more polite.
Liang Yizhi accepted her thanks without any qualms.
"The Gu family's affairs are very complicated, and Gu Yi is not as easy to deal with as his brother imagines. We should try to avoid meeting Gu Yanchen..."
Ji Ying interrupted him, "Is Mr. Liang so interested in everyone's private affairs?"
Liang Yizhi didn't answer her question, turned his face to the side, and started the car.
It started to rain.
Ji Ying cursed "scumbag," found a place to shelter from the rain, and called a car using her phone.
Upon arriving at Tianhe Yunjing, Lin Meizhen frowned as soon as she opened the door.
Why are your clothes wet?
Ji Ying put down a bag of snacks. "I only got a little wet when getting on and off the bus, it's nothing. What's going on between you and Lin... Liang Yanchuan?"
Is it just a little rain?
It was pouring rain outside.
Lin Meizhen was still shaken by what had happened in the mall, so she didn't bother to find out why Ji Ying had gotten caught in the rain.
"Ayan wants to know what your grandfather said before he passed away. Liang Jian was there during the funeral, and my son and I didn't have a proper conversation, so today..."
She secretly glanced at Ji Ying's expression.
"...We were already being very careful, thinking we'd meet at the mall where there would be lots of people to cover us up, but we still bumped into Mrs. Liang. But we're not sure now if she recognized us."
Ji Ying frowned. "What do you mean by uncertain?"
Lin Meizhen said, "At most, we only saw our backs."
Even seeing someone's back can be very serious for someone you know well.
Ji Ying thought for a moment, then went to the window and called Liang Yanchuan, "How is the situation?"
On the other end of the line, Liang Yanchuan said with a helpless tone, "I had someone delete the surveillance footage from the mall and the surrounding area. She probably can't be sure for now whether that figure was me or Liang Jian."
The two brothers are about the same height and have the same build as their father.
Ji Ying lowered her eyes, "Why don't you just acknowledge your mother? Then you can meet her openly and honestly."
Liang Yanchuan said anxiously, "No, you don't know what kind of ruthless character Madam Liang is. Liang Weiyue has had no scandals all these years. Do you think it's because he doesn't want to? No, it's because Madam Liang has quietly dealt with all the women he's been involved with."
"Then why do you let your mother see you whenever she wants?"
Liang Yanchuan fell silent.
Ji Ying said, "You chose this path yourself, so you have to let go of what you have to let go of. Your mother will live a good life without you. It's better for you both and for me if you two have nothing to do with each other."
After hanging up the phone, her gaze towards Lin Meizhen was devoid of warmth.
"Are you still blaming me for not telling you?"
Lin Meizhen's eyes reddened, and she grasped Yingying's hand. "Yingying, I'm begging you, please help Ayan this time. I won't see him again."
"There's nothing I can do."
Ji Ying removed her hand.
Just then, her phone rang, and the screen displayed Liang Jian's number...
Liang Yizhi drove to the 547 Hospital, but what he saw in the director's office was a village woman who looked to be in her fifties.
“Boss,” Xue Qin said in a low voice, “she’s asking on behalf of her adopted daughter, saying that they’ve been living in Cheng City all these years.”
More than a thousand kilometers away, that's so far?
Before Liang Yizhi could speak, the village woman asked, "Are you the unwanted relative?"
Liang Yizhi frowned.
Xue Qin quickly explained, "It's her husband... the girl her family adopted is named Duoyu."
It sounds like they're sexist.
Liang Yizhi's furrowed brows relaxed.
"When did you adopt her?" he asked.
The village woman said, "14 years ago."
The timing matches.
Liang Yizhi: "Why haven't you looked for me all these years?"
“She was only 12 years old then, what could she possibly know? My husband asked her, but she couldn’t explain anything clearly.” The village woman answered fluently. “Our village is remote, and we only got telephone service ten years ago.”
Liang Yizhi's face was expressionless. "How did she get to your place?"
Without even recalling the events, the village woman said, "At that time, my husband was working in Lan City. She fell into the water and was rescued. He saw that no one wanted the child and that she was pitiful, so he brought her back to our hometown."
Liang Yizhi: "Why didn't she come in person?"
The village woman said, "She died of illness a month ago. I came to ask her about this last wish of hers."
The office fell silent.
