Chapter 121 It's best if we never meet again in this life
In an instant, Fu Chenzhou felt a heat in his chest as his crisp white shirt was stained crimson with blood!
"Jiang Shiyuan... don't scare me!" Fu Chenzhou supported her heaving body and pressed the doorbell on the bedside table with his other hand.
Soon, Shen Min arrived with two medical staff, pushed Fu Chenzhou outside, and began to provide first aid to Jiang Shiyuan.
"President Fu! Are you alright?!" Xing Zhen rushed over and was terrified when she saw the man covered in blood.
“It’s not my blood.” Fu Chenzhou’s hands froze in mid-air as he stared at the closed door, bewildered.
Xing Zhen's pupils dilated, and she immediately reassured him, "President Fu, please don't worry, Miss Jiang is a lucky person, she will be fine!"
A dark fire flickered in Fu Chenzhou's deep eyes. He parted his dry lips, his voice hoarse:
"Have you found out who's behind this?"
"That son of a bitch said he only communicated with his employer by phone and he had never seen what his employer looked like. But I checked their transaction records, and the person who made the remittances was based in Macau."
Fu Chenzhou's eyes flashed with horror. "Have you checked the phone call records?"
"We checked, and the location where that person made the call was also in Macau, and the final location was near the largest casino in Macau."
"Is it possible to find a list of all the guests who entered and exited the casino that day?"
"This... I'm afraid it will be difficult. Casinos are completely open to the public, with a constant stream of tourists every day. Besides, Macau is not our territory. If we get too involved, we might cause trouble."
As soon as Xing Zhen finished speaking, the ward door opened, and Shen Min came out, catching his breath and wiping the sweat from his forehead.
"How is it?" Fu Chenzhou immediately stepped forward.
"It's nothing, it's nothing... It's just a drug rejection reaction. You'll be fine once you vomit the blood."
Shen Min was furious. "Damn it, that bastard deserves to die! He ruined such a beautiful girl like this!"
Fu Chenzhou lowered his eyelashes. "Can I go in and see her?"
Shen Min narrowed his eyes and teased, "Oh, you can't wait to see me after just a few minutes? Absence makes the heart grow fonder~"
Fu Chenzhou curled his lips in a mocking smile, "Is it because doctors can't heal themselves that your serious illness of talking nonsense all these years hasn't been cured?"
Shen Min gritted his teeth, "Your mouth is like a damn brand of arsenic, it's so damn poisonous!"
"I was eager to see her because I wanted to know more about the specific details of what happened when she was kidnapped so that I could find out who was behind it."
Fu Chenzhou pinched the bridge of his nose, looking somewhat tired. "She already suffered a concussion. I'm afraid if we delay for another two days, she'll forget even her own name."
"Fine, fine... Go if you want to go, who wants to listen to your lame reasons?"
Shen Min immediately became serious. "But Miss Jiang is still very weak. You should finish this quickly and not let her suffer too much."
Fu Chenzhou walked into the ward, put his hands behind his back, and gently closed the door.
At this moment, Jiang Shiyuan lay quietly on the bed, thin and fragile, like a piece of light white paper.
“Mr. Fu…” Jiang Shiyuan’s voice was weak and feeble. She struggled for a moment, but could not sit up.
"You're injured, don't move around."
Fu Chenzhou strode to the bedside, his warm hand gently resting on her shoulder. "Rest assured and take care of yourself. Your friend Miss Su is resting next door. She has been by your side these past few days."
Jiang Shiyuan's long eyelashes, glistening with tears, fluttered and trembled, like new buds sprouting on branches in early spring.
Fair-skinned, delicate, and fragile, she evokes tenderness and pity.
Fu Chenzhou lowered his eyes, bent down, and used his bony hands to pull the blanket up to cover her.
Jiang Shiyuan pursed her bloodless lips.
As expected of a man who is both a father and a mother, he is more meticulous and considerate than the average man.
She would never see these qualities in Xie Jinghuai.
"That bastard... has he been brought to justice?" Jiang Shiyuan's eyes were red, and she was breathing heavily.
Fu Chenzhou's stunning peach blossom eyes were now unfathomable:
"You can rest assured that I'll handle things."
Actually, he didn't.
That night, after the interrogation, Su Xier gave that bastard a severe beating, breaking several of his ribs.
However, even someone as strong as Miss Su wasn't ruthless enough.
He then stabbed the man a few more times, severing the tendons in his hands and feet, leaving him crippled.
“Miss Jiang, you should know very well that the kidnapper was just a pawn being manipulated. The real culprit is someone else.”
Fu Chenzhou glanced at her, his gaze sharp. "I know you're exhausted, but I still hope you can try your best to recall if there were any clues, even the slightest, about the mastermind behind your kidnapping."
Jiang Shiyuan closed her eyes tightly, her mind flashing with horrific images of being beaten and humiliated. Her whole body trembled convulsively, and her breathing became increasingly rapid.
“That person… seems to know Xie Jinghuai very well. He knows… that he and I are husband and wife.”
Fu Chenzhou's expression darkened. "Is there anything else?"
"And... his voice sounds somewhat familiar..." Jiang Shiyuan racked her brains, a thin layer of sweat appearing on her smooth forehead.
Suddenly, she opened her eyes abruptly and gasped for breath as if she were drowning:
"It's...it's him?!"
Fu Chenzhou pressed further, "Who?"
"Wu...Hui...!"
The man narrowed his clear, black-and-white eyes; he recognized the man.
"He is... Xie Jinghuai's former subordinate... the general manager of the marketing department of Xie's Group..."
Jiang Shiyuan gripped the bedsheet tightly with his fingers, breathing heavily. "His wife... Yang Jing, was the director of Xie's R&D department... I reported her before I left the company, and she is now serving time in prison."
"If the lips are gone, the teeth will be cold... Yang Jing's accident implicated Wu Hui, and I heard that not long after, he was also fired by Xie Jinghuai, and his bad reputation spread throughout Beijing. No company... wants to hire him. He must be having a very difficult time..."
Fu Chenzhou: "So, you thought of kidnapping you to blackmail Xie Jinghuai, hoping to get rich overnight, and also to annoy Xie Jinghuai?"
Jiang Shiyuan closed her eyes and agreed with him.
Fu Chenzhou raised an eyebrow slightly, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.
Everything seemed to make sense. But there was a vague feeling that something was off.
“Ms. Jiang, I heard that your husband, Xie Jinghuai, is searching for you all over the world and has already called the police.”
Fu Chenzhou's eyes held a faint smile. "It seems he still cares about you and has feelings for you."
Should I let him know for you?
"No……"
Jiang Shiyuan closed her eyes and shook her head, "Whether I live or die has nothing to do with him..."
I just want to get away from him, as far away as possible... ideally, never see him again in this lifetime.
Fu Chenzhou looked at her and smiled:
"Okay, I'll keep it a secret."
"Thanks……"
Life is truly full of dramatic and poignant moments.
Xie Jinghuai, you were someone I would have wanted to hold onto even if it cost me my entire life.
But now, all I want is to let go, to free myself, and to give you your freedom.
