Chapter 350: All Roads Lead to Heaven
Xiang Nuan rested in the hospital for a whole week. There was an endless stream of people coming to visit her every day. They said they were just resting, but the hospital was almost turned into a reception room.
The news of her accident bombarded all major platforms and remained at the top of the trending search list for a whole week. Before the public security department's investigation results came out, various media had already had hundreds of interpretations, such as digging deep into the inside story, the mastermind behind the scenes, and the international forces that were involved, and all kinds of fantasy.
Jiang Yunhui adopted the "three no" attitude of not responding, not ignoring, and not refuting the rumors. In fact, he had noticed Xiang Nuan's abnormality since he woke up.
He spoke less and less, and as she got better, he spent less and less time in the hospital, sometimes not even a whole day. Xiang Nuan had a vague worry, wondering if he was doing something stupid.
Moreover, there was another strange thing. Jiang Chao had never appeared from beginning to end. Logically speaking, he was the person most involved, so he should have come to explain the situation to her. What happened to that phone call? Who did he call? What conditions did he agree to? These should have given her, the person involved, an explanation. But he was silent.
When Chen Feng, Fei Fei and the others came to visit her, she asked them a question or two indirectly, but they just said that they had never met Mr. Jiang and didn't know if he was busy with the new company.
Something was not right. Xiang Nuan instinctively felt that they must be hiding something from her.
"Uncle Huo, is Yunhui... busy with the show recently?" When the day of discharge came, there was still no sign of him, and Xiang Nuan couldn't help but ask.
"Yes, Young Master has not been to France during this period. He has been in contact with them through video calls, which makes coordination more difficult."
Oh——Xiang Nuan stopped asking. She felt that Uncle Huo was lying, which meant that he not only knew about it but was also involved in it. Asking him would not give her any clues.
"I'm fine now. His matter has been delayed for so long. Let him get back to his work when we get back." Xiang Nuan chose to go along with the conversation.
They completed the formalities quickly and finally returned home.
Xiang Nuan thought Jiang Yunhui would rush out to greet her, but he wasn't home at all. Come to think of it, if he had time, why wouldn't he go to the hospital to pick her up?
"Uncle Huo, you and Ranran are at home, I want to go out for a while."
"No, ma'am, you can't go anywhere during this time. You can only rest at home."
Xiang Nuan's eyes widened, thinking she had misheard. She smiled and said, "I'm fine now. The doctor said I was fine before I was discharged from the hospital, didn't he?"
Uncle Huo shook his head and did not allow for any explanation.
"Is this what Yunhui meant?" she asked.
"That's what I meant, too."
"You're not going to lock me up in the house?"
Uncle Huo frowned, hearing the displeasure in her tone. He was going to stick to it, but she was Xiang Nuan, the wife who treated him like a family member.
He sighed softly: "How could that be? If you must go out, Ranran and I will accompany you."
Xiang Nuan began to realize that something was wrong. Was this their stress reaction? They blamed themselves for all the mistakes, and then put all the results of their reflection on the plan of never letting her out of their sight?
Xiang Nuan also sighed and took Uncle Huo's arm: "I won't hide it from you, there are too many doubts about this matter, I want to find out."
"You want to find Jiang Chao?"
"yes."
Uncle Huo lowered his eyelids and hesitated for a moment before saying, "Young Master, just stay with him. When he comes back in the evening, you can ask him."
Xiang Nuan was stunned, and her hand slipped from his arm: "So you know the whole story?"
Uncle Huo nodded: "It's a guess, but it's almost certain, but there's no evidence."
"Is it Chen Weiming?"
Uncle Huo looked at her. Although he was a little surprised, it was not surprising that she could guess the answer given her intelligence.
"yes."
"He's alone? Or does he have an accomplice?"
“We are still investigating.”
"Since there is no evidence, a confrontation is definitely useless. What can the two of them do together?"
"Well... to punish a person, there is not only one way to deal with him, that is, committing violent crimes. All roads can lead to death."
Coming from Uncle Huo, these words made people feel chilly. He followed Jiang Yunhui for so many years, and it wasn't his cooking skills that made him famous. Xiang Nuan remembered that the book described him in just a few words, saying that he was smart, deep, and unpredictable. She finally experienced it.
"Yun Hui, he..."
"When the young master comes back, he will tell you." Uncle Huo put on a warm smile and changed the subject: "I'll make the soup when I go out. Go take a good shower and change into comfortable clothes. I'll serve it to you."
Xiang Nuan couldn't think of any other way to do it except nodding in agreement.
She waited patiently for Jiang Yunhui to come back, but she didn't see him until late at night when Ran Ran had already gone to bed. She tossed and turned in bed, unable to fall asleep peacefully, so she put on her pajamas and went down to the study.
She really wanted to call Jiang Yunhui, but her intuition told her that even if the call went through, he would just tell her a lie to get by. It would be better to look him in the eye and ask him face to face.
She lay down on the sofa, her mind wandering. Suddenly she remembered the first time she came to this room, and the long-forgotten contract. She got up and rummaged under the desk.
The place where Wanqing's belongings were originally placed was now empty. Although she had already uncovered the secrets contained in that small box, she still missed those items. She really wanted to see Wanqing's photo again. I wonder if Jiang Yunhui's face appeared in his mind when he was taking care of himself in the hospital.
There must be, she couldn't get the thought out of her mind.
Suddenly she slapped her forehead hard. She couldn't get stuck in a dead end. What if... She was frightened by her own thoughts and felt a chill on her back.
What if she is too focused and travels through time and space to become Wan Qing? Give her a chance to be reborn, and then try to stop Ran Ran from being born...
Oh my, that's crazy! She slumped down on the ground, trying to get this crazy idea out of her mind.
You can only wear it once, right? She looked up at the ceiling. We can't experience multiple roles. Since we have worn the body of a character, we have to have a beginning and an end, right? ! Restarting and switching identities at any time is not what a good screenwriter should do!
She sneaked out from under the table and silently apologized for her previous thoughts.
The contract? No sign of it either.
A long time ago, when she wanted to modify and supplement the contract, she looked for it hard, but Jiang Yunhui was so good at hiding things that she didn't find it at that time.
Could this guy have acquired this skill by hiding his own private money? !
Ah - what a sin, why do I always think of Wanqing for no reason! Wrong, wrong!
Not finding anything, she lay back on the sofa in dejection, staring blankly at the rows of bookcases. Slowly, she felt her eyelids getting groggy, and the things she could see became increasingly blurry, until she finally closed her eyes...
