Chapter 105 Suspicion
Yin Jian said that it was not very convenient to talk about this over the phone, so he asked me to come over and talk to him. I hurriedly asked Yin Jian where he was. He said he was in the hospital. Lian Yi was a little pessimistic after learning that Tian Wu had passed away. I was afraid that it would affect his mood, so I stayed with him with the nurse first. As for Tian Wu's funeral, I left it to Yan Yun and others to handle.
I nodded and said okay. After hanging up the phone, I looked up at Shao Han and said that I would not go home now and had to go to the hospital.
Shao Han looked at me and said he would send me off.
I glanced upstairs with some concern. Tian Rong is really too cruel now...
Shao Han saw my worry and said it was okay, he had asked the nanny to keep an eye on Tian Rong.
"Thank you."
After Shao Han sent me to the hospital, I hurried to find Yin Jian. After entering the ward, I saw Lian Yi lying on the bed, wiping tears with a sad face.
Yin Jian glanced at me, and I walked out of the dress-covered ward with him.
When I reached a corner of the corridor, I hurriedly asked Yin Jian what was going on.
"Tian Wu knew he didn't have many days left to live, and he was really grateful for the big favor you and Jiang Ruohe had done Lian Yi. Plus, he had done so many wrong things in the past that he wanted to atone for them. So, he asked me to announce yesterday that he was Tian Wu."
"How could you do this?" I looked at Yin Jian with some annoyance.
"If you make this public, it will put him in danger. Why are you still doing it? Yin Jian, do you know that you are the indirect murderer?"
Yes, Tian Wu was a very bad person before, but now, I see his good side, his kindness, and everyone should have compassion for him. He didn't have many days left to live, so I hope he can spend a few days with Lian Yi and spend his last few days well.
Yin Jian looked aggrieved and said that he had no choice.
"He knelt on the ground and begged me. If I didn't agree, he wouldn't get up. What can I do? Although Tian Wu is dead, I have found out..."
I interrupted Yin Jian before he finished speaking.
"Let alone that you know who killed Tian Wu, have you ever thought about Lian Yi's feelings? If you want to sacrifice other people's lives to find the mastermind behind the scenes, I would rather not hear that result." My eyes turned red and I turned my face away.
Actually, I know that Yin Jian cannot be blamed for this matter, but of course I still feel a little sad when I heard about Tian Wu's death.
Yin Jian looked at me without saying anything, and I didn't say anything either. We were both silent for a while until Lian Yi's voice sounded from behind me.
"Sister Xiaowan, I know what my dad did. I support him."
I turned around and looked at Lian Yi, who was wearing a hospital gown and standing behind him. My nose felt a little sore, and I quickly asked Yin Jian to support Lian Yi into the ward.
Lian Yi lay on the bed, took my hand and looked at me.
"My dad has told me all the bad things he did in the past two days."
Tian Wu told Lian Yi that it was because of meeting Lian Yi that changed him. During the years of getting along with Lian Yi, Tian Wu wanted to turn himself in for what happened that year, but in the end he couldn't let Lian Yi go. Now Lian Yi has had a heart transplant and can have a new life. All his worries are gone, not to mention that he knows he won't live for many days. In order to atone for bullying Aunt Lan eight years ago, he must do this.
I remained silent and glanced at Yin Jian. Yin Jian hurriedly told me that when Tian Wu died, he had a hidden camera on his body, which accurately captured the murderer who killed him.
"I have given the camera to Yan Yun. He has asked someone to investigate. He will come over after arranging Tian Wu's funeral." Yin Jian said to me.
I looked up and gave Yin Jian an apologetic look.
"I'm sorry, I spoke a little too harshly just now."
Yin Jian reached out and scratched the back of his head and said it was okay.
I sat on the chair, looked up at Lian Yi, and told her not to be too sad, as it would affect her health.
Lian Yi nodded.
"When my dad passed away, he specifically told me that I was ready for this. But I still feel sad. After all, we've been together for a few years and he was really good to me. I felt the fatherly love I wanted from him."
Hearing Lian Yi say this, I also thought of my father, and my heart was still very painful. I held Lian Yi's hand and said nothing. After waiting for half an hour, Yan Yun came, and Han Liang also came.
I stood up and hurriedly asked Yan Yun if he had found the murderer of Tian Wu. Yan Yun nodded and handed me a piece of information in his hand. I opened it and saw that the person in the information was a strange man with a very gloomy face. His name was Ma Hua.
"We have already issued a wanted notice for him, but..." Yan Yun glanced at Han Liang, and then I looked at him. He looked like he had a lot on his mind since he came in.
Han Liang came back to his senses when he saw me looking at him.
"Nothing special, it's just this guy. My dad saw him last time when he arrested Yu Meng. He's Yu Meng's partner. If I'm not mistaken, he should be a DF like Yu Meng."
I looked at Han Liang, feeling a little puzzled.
"If it's the same as Yu Meng, why would he suddenly kill Tian Wu?"
I lowered my head and looked at Ma Hua's information again. He was only 26 years old. I looked up at Han Liang again.
"Judging from his age, the person behind the scenes shouldn't be him. It seems he was instructed by someone else."
Han Liang nodded and said that only by catching this man named Ma Hua could they find out who was the mastermind behind the Lan Yan case eight years ago.
"I hope you can catch him as soon as possible." I looked at Han Liang.
Han Liang nodded and said it should be soon.
"My dad has been following Yu Meng's case. He has a reliable informant who should be able to provide information."
When Han Liang mentioned Yu Meng, a strange look flashed in his eyes. Seeing this, Yan Yun reached out and patted him on the shoulder. Han Liang looked at Yan Yun.
"Brother, don't worry. If I meet her again, I will definitely not show mercy."
"Xiaowan, we both have something to do, so we'll go back to the office first. I'll inform you when there's good news." Yan Yun said to me.
As soon as they left, my cell phone rang. It was Xiao Shi calling. I glanced at Yin Jian and said I was going out to answer a call. I opened the ward door and went to the end of the corridor and picked up the phone.
"I heard that Tian Wu was murdered. Who is the murderer?" Xiao Shi asked me directly.
I thought about it and decided to tell him.
"A man named Ma Hua."
Xiao Shi was shocked.
"Xiao Wan, are you sure your name is Ma Hua?"
"Well, I looked at his information, and I guess he was instructed by someone..."
Before I could finish my words, Xiao Shi hung up the phone. I guess he also wanted to find this person quickly and avenge Aunt Lan. I sent Xiao Shi a text message, asking him not to be impulsive. The police have already started a manhunt for this Ma Hua. When there is any news, I will let him know.
Xiao Shi didn't reply to me. I wanted to call him again, but then I thought better of it. I felt someone staring at me from behind. I turned around and saw it was Wang Chuan, who was looking at me.
"Uncle." I walked over and called him.
Wang Chuan looked at me, came back to his senses, smiled at me, pointed to the small bag in his hand and said, "I just went to the first floor to get Yichen's medicine. It happened to be crowded. So I walked up the stairs and unexpectedly saw me."
"Oh, my friend is also hospitalized here, I came to see him."
"Is your friend okay?" He looked at me.
"Fortunately, he had a heart transplant and is in the observation period, but the doctor said he is recovering well. By the way, how is Yi Chen?" I asked.
"It's okay, but my right leg is broken. I have to lie in bed and cry out in dissatisfaction."
I looked at the time and said I would call Jiang Ruohe. When he met up with me, I would go downstairs to see Yi Chen.
"It's okay, you go ahead and do your thing. I'll go up first."
After Wang Chuan went upstairs, I called Jiang Ruohe. When the call was connected, I told Jiang Ruohe that I was already in the hospital. When he was free later, he could come directly to the hospital to find me. Then, we would go down together to see Yi Chen.
I wanted to tell Jiang Ruohe about Tian Wu, but Jiang Ruohe just nodded twice and said that he was busy at the company in the afternoon and couldn't come to the hospital.
"It's okay. I'll be back by myself after I finish seeing Yi Chen..."
"good."
After hanging up the phone, I went back to Lian Yi's ward to stay with her for a while. After Lian Yi calmed down, I stood up, looked at Yin Jian, and said I had to go upstairs to see my cousin.
"Well, go ahead. I have to go back to the detective agency now. The nurse is watching over me. I'll come back to look at Lian Yi later."
After Yin Jian finished speaking, he told the nurse beside him to take a good look at the dress and call Yin Jian if she had any questions. The nurse agreed.
Yin Jian and I left the ward together.
I said Yin Jian said Yi Chen's ward was upstairs, so I could just take the stairs. After saying goodbye to Yin Jian, I went upstairs, and just when I reached the corner, I unexpectedly saw Xiao Shi and Wang Chuan talking at the fourth floor stairs.
"You really don't believe me?" Wang Chuan raised his eyebrows and looked at Xiao Shi.
When Xiao Shi was about to say something with a tense face, he noticed me, and Wang Chuan also turned towards me, which made me feel a little embarrassed. I walked upstairs, stood in front of them, and said that I planned to come up to see Yi Chen.
Wang Chuan looked at Xiao Shi.
"You go back first, I'll find you later."
Xiao Shi nodded, without even looking at me, and left. I looked at Wang Chuan, a little puzzled, wondering why Xiao Shi came to see him at this time.
Wang Chuan saw me staring at him, then looked at Xiao Shi's leaving back, then turned and looked at me.
"Xiao Shi came to me because of a previous collaboration."
I nodded and went into Jiang Yichen's ward with Wang Chuan. Jiang Yichen was very happy when he saw me.
"Xiao Wan, thank you so much, otherwise I would have really died."
I smiled and said you're welcome. Wang Chuan on the side looked at Jiang Yichen and asked where Chen Dongren was.
"Mrs. Qian's cooking isn't very to my taste. I asked Chen Dong to buy me some shrimp."
Wang Chuan rolled his eyes at Jiang Yichen.
"You're the only one who's picky. I deliberately asked Mrs. Qian to make the dishes lighter. The doctor specifically instructed me to do that."
"Dad, the food is so bland." Jiang Yichen looked at Wang Chuan.
"Okay, let Chen Dong buy you whatever you want to eat. Don't blame me if your scars don't go away."
After Wang Chuan finished speaking, he looked at me and said that he had something to do and had to go out.
Jiang Yichen and I were the only ones left in the ward. I was repairing her iPhone, and Jiang Yichen told me about the frightening scene that happened to her yesterday.
"I was crossing the road normally yesterday, and the driver was drunk and high, and he crashed directly into me. When I saw him rushing towards me, I thought it was all over, I was going to die. Fortunately, I met you, my savior." Jiang Yichen looked at me gratefully.
I smiled, handed the cut apple to Jiang Yichen, and said that I was just doing my job and asked him not to thank me all the time.
Jiang Yichen nodded and agreed.
"When my leg is healed, I'll treat you to a big meal."
Jiang Yichen was looking at the calendar on her phone to calculate the time, and suddenly her eyes became sad. I asked her what was wrong.
"Oh, I suddenly thought of my mother. In ten days, it will be a month since she passed away. I wanted to go to the cemetery to pay my respects to her, but my legs are like this..."
I took Jiang Yichen's hand and said it was okay. I planned to go to the cemetery to see my father in a few days, and visit Jiang Ting on her behalf. I would go to see her after she was discharged from the hospital.
"Xiaowan, thank you." Jiang Yichen turned and looked at me.
"Alas. I was so badly injured, why didn't my brother come with you to see me?"
"We had agreed to come together this afternoon, but your brother was a bit busy at the company... but he was with you the whole time during your surgery yesterday."
I told Jiang Yichen that Jiang Ruohe still cared about her a lot. He even called Yan Yun for her and asked him to take good care of the drunk driver at the police station.
"I know my brother treats me well. By the way, how is your relationship going?" Jiang Yichen asked me.
"fine."
"That's good."
After a while, Chen Dong came over with some shrimp. Jiang Yichen asked me to eat with her, but I shook my head, saying I was too full from lunch. Seeing that the kettle was empty, I stood up and asked Chen Dong to stay with Jiang Yichen while I went to get a kettle of water.
When I was about to enter the ward with a full bottle of boiled water, I suddenly heard what Jiang Yichen was saying and stopped.
"What did you say? You actually saw my brother when you were buying shrimp."
"Really? When I entered the store, I saw him going upstairs with a woman. At first I thought it was Xiaowan, but Xiaowan has straight hair, and that woman has yellow curly hair. She was very affectionate and stuck close to your cousin."
I was stunned.
"No way! I just asked Xiaowan, and she said my brother is busy at work, so how could he have time to go out to dinner with another woman? You must have seen it wrong. My cousin is not that kind of person. He and Xiaowan are in a good relationship now..."
“Really…”
"Shut up, don't talk about this when Xiaowan comes later. If it really is my cousin, I will ask him about it when he comes to see me. Maybe he is a client or something."
I stood at the door and thought about it. I should trust Jiang Ruohe's character. Even if he really went to dinner with another woman, it might really be a female customer as Jiang Yichen said. Even if he hid it from me, he was probably afraid that I would be jealous.
I pushed the door open and walked in. Jiang Yichen and Chen Dong immediately shut up. I put the kettle on the bedside table and looked at the shrimp in Jiang Ruohe's lunch box.
"Your dad is right. Eat less of these spicy foods with soy sauce, or the scars on your body will be difficult to heal in the future."
Jiang Ruohe smiled at me and said that she had loved spicy food since she was a child. She said she would just satisfy her craving today and promised not to eat it again in the future.
I stayed there with Jiang Yichen for a while, and at five o'clock in the afternoon, I got up and said I wanted to go back.
"I'll come see you tomorrow."
After leaving the ward, I happened to run into Wang Chuan who had returned, and I called out to him.
"Going back?" He looked at me.
I nodded.
"Let me take you there."
I took a look at Jiang Yichen's ward. Wang Chuan said it was okay, as Yichen could just have Chen Dong stay with him first. I had no choice but to agree.
I went downstairs with Wang Chuan and got in his car. When we left the hospital, it was rush hour and we found that the road back to my house was jammed with traffic. Wang Chuan said we had to take a detour.
"fine."
Wang Chuan was driving the car and I looked out the window.
"Xiao Wan, are you and Ruo He still on good terms?"
I turned to look at Wang Chuan and said, "It's fine."
"That's good. Ruohe is a good kid. You two are a good match."
I nodded. The traffic light at the intersection ahead was red. While waiting for the red light, I looked out the window again and suddenly saw a familiar figure. It was Jiang Ruohe.
There was a beautiful woman with curly hair next to him. I guess that woman was the one Chen Dong mentioned. The two of them were walking and talking and laughing. After walking a few steps, they turned right and entered a hotel. When I saw the name of the hotel, I was stunned.
At that moment, I felt a bit uncomfortable. Jiang Ruohe had clearly told me that he was busy at the company, but Chen Dong saw him having dinner with that woman, so I believed it. But now, I saw him enter the hotel with my own eyes. If he was a client, what was going on? Couldn't they talk over dinner? Why did they go into the hotel to talk?
At this moment, his face darkened and his heart was blocked. He felt like calling Jiang Ruohe to ask what was going on, but he held himself back.
A voice in my heart came out, telling me to believe in Jiang Ruohe's character. Sometimes, what you see is not necessarily true, just like that time, Jiang Ruohe and Cai Qing were together because of me.
No matter what, I still believe him. I will just ask him when he comes back in the evening.
I turned to look at Wang Chuan and saw that he was staring at the traffic light and hadn't noticed anything unusual about me. I guess he didn't see what happened just now. If he had, he would have told me.
When Wang Chuan saw me staring at him, he turned around and looked at me in confusion and asked me what was wrong?
I shook my head and said it was okay. Wang Chuan didn't say anything else and drove me back.
When I got home, it was Liu Ma who opened the door. I was a little surprised to see her.
"Auntie Liu, why are you here so early? Didn't I ask you to stay at your son's house for a few more days?"
"I couldn't stay at home. I missed you and the young master the most, so I came here. Zhimin has bought a house in South City, which is not far away. I will make a point to visit you every week from now on."
Aunt Liu asked me to go into the house quickly.
After I entered the house, Wang Yingzhi, who was cooking in the kitchen, saw me come back and called out to Aunt Liu, saying that the soup was ready and asked Aunt Liu to serve me a bowl to drink first.
Aunt Liu responded and hurried to the kitchen. After a while, she served me a bowl of soup and placed it on the coffee table.
"Thank you, Aunt Liu." I looked at her.
Jiang Ruohe came back more than an hour later. When he came back, Wang Yingzhi had just brought the dishes to the table. Seeing Jiang Ruohe come back, she called him and asked him to wash his hands and prepare to eat.
"Okay." Jiang Ruohe agreed, but walked towards me, sat on the sofa, put his arm around my waist, and asked me if I missed him. I looked at Jiang Ruohe and nodded.
"Have you finished your work at the company?" I asked.
Jiang Ruohe nodded and said he was done.
"I miss you too." He leaned his face closer, and at this moment, I noticed a yellow curly hair on his left shoulder. No doubt it belonged to the woman who entered the hotel with him.
When Jiang Ruohe's face came closer, I reached out and pushed him away.
"What's wrong?"
I retracted my gaze and looked at him, saying in my heart that I must trust his character. I forced a smile and told him to wash his hands quickly so that we could eat.
Jiang Ruohe nodded and said okay, then stood up to wash his hands. Looking at his back, my face darkened.
Jiang Ruohe, should I believe you this time?
Halfway through the meal, Jiang Ruohe stopped using his chopsticks, looked at Wang Yingzhi, and said that Liu Ma was here and it was March, a good time for travel.
"I'll call Song Yan tomorrow morning and ask him to book you a ticket to Lijiang. You've been working hard these days, so go out and relax."
After hearing this, Wang Yingzhi shook her head.
"I still have to take care of Xiaowan!"
I hurriedly looked at Wang Yingzhi and said it was good that Aunt Liu was here, so she could go out and travel for a few days without worry.
Wang Yingzhi looked at me with a smile.
"Xiao Wan, why don't you come with me?"
"No, Xiaowan is going to North City with me in a couple of days, so you should stay there alone for a few days." Jiang Ruohe looked up at Wang Yingzhi.
"Okay, I guess you're tired of me getting in the way. I'll give you some space."
"Mom, I really didn't mean that. I just want you to rest for a few days." Jiang Ruohe said.
After dinner, Jiang Ruohe and I went upstairs. After taking a shower, I sat in front of the makeup mirror and put on a face mask. Jiang Ruohe took his clothes and went to the bathroom to take a shower. Not long after he entered, his phone rang.
I glanced at his phone. There was no note displayed. The phone was ringing rapidly. I thought about it and reached out to pick it up.
"Hello……"
But after hearing my voice, the other party immediately hung up the phone, which made me very puzzled and looked at Jiang Ruohe's phone suspiciously.
After a while, Jiang Ruohe came out of the shower. I turned to look at him and said that someone had just called him.
"Who is it?"
"I don't know either, but as soon as I picked up the phone, the other party hung up."
Jiang Ruohe walked up to me and took his phone. After seeing the caller ID, a strange look flashed across his eyes, and then he put the phone down and said that it might be a wrong number.
Jiang Ruohe walked behind me, put his arms around my waist, and his hands began to move restlessly. I stared at his cell phone, feeling a little suspicious that this call might have been from that woman.
"Xiao Wan, we have been..."
Jiang Ruohe was interrupted by me before he could finish his words. I stood up and said that I had not been feeling well these past two days and did not want to do it.
Jiang Ruohe smiled and said, "Then wait for two days."
I ignored him, lifted the quilt, climbed onto the bed, turned sideways with my back to him, and fell asleep.
Soon Jiang Ruohe also climbed up, turned off the lights, and put his arms around my waist.
After a long while, when I was sure Jiang Ruohe was asleep, I opened my eyes a little irritably, and the scene of him and that woman entering the hotel appeared in my mind.
I turned around in annoyance and faced Jiang Ruohe. I reached out and gently stroked his cold face.
Jiang Ruohe, I have given you my heart, please don't lie to me, otherwise, I will make you regret it.
