Chapter 101: We touched it, and then what?



Upon arriving at their destination, Lu Shiyan glanced at his watch.

There's still plenty of time, no rush to get off the bus.

Lu Shiyan held Jiang Li and didn't move.

Tao Yuan naturally lacked Lu Shiyan's delicate wit. Seeing that Lu Shiyan hadn't made a move for a while, he turned to remind him, "President Lu, we've arrived at the airport..."

Before she could finish speaking, Lu Shiyan's icy gaze froze her words.

Tao Yuan: "..."

Okay, I understand.

He's just being tactless and doesn't know what's good for him.

well……

Such a big boss, so considerate to his partner, it seems...

He needs to hurry up and start learning.

Although I felt I had learned a lot, I didn't grasp much of the essence.

But learning something is better than not learning anything at all.

that's all……

An eerie silence fell over the car once again.

When Lu Shiyan saw that there were still more than ten minutes left before the security check, he gently shook Jiang Li awake.

“Jiang Jiang…” Lu Shiyan’s voice was deep and gentle, filled with affection, “Wake up.”

Jiang Li woke up with a soft moan, her voice still slightly nasal from sleep, "Where are we?"

"We've arrived at the airport. Let's get our boarding passes first, and then we can sleep after we board the plane."

"oh……"

After saying goodbye to Tao Yuan, Jiang Li was led away by Lu Shiyan in a daze.

She was still a little dazed when she boarded the plane.

Hmm...

I feel completely groggy and still want to sleep.

Lu Shiyan sat down next to Jiang Li, chuckled, and asked, "Jiang Jiang, why are you so sleepy? Did you go thief last night?"

He had initially assumed that Jiang Li, who looked so well, had been sleeping soundly the night before.

But comparing her current state to her earlier state...

That's not the state of someone who sleeps well.

turn out to be……

He wasn't the only one who didn't sleep well last night.

His future wife, who's always been stubborn, is just like him.

Thinking about it this way, Lu Shiyan felt incredibly happy.

Jiang Li didn't understand why Lu Shiyan's mood had suddenly improved. She rolled her eyes at him, looking puzzled, and asked, "What are you laughing at?"

"No." Lu Shiyan shook his head, saying somewhat ambiguously, "I just thought of some things, and my mood suddenly became very good."

Jiang Li: "..."

Okay.

Since there was nothing else to do, Jiang Li closed her eyes and continued to rest.

Lu Shiyan picked up a newspaper that was placed to the side and glanced at it casually.

For some reason, Lu Shiyan's expression suddenly turned serious.

Lu Shiyan glanced at Jiang Li, who had already closed her eyes, and swallowed back the words he was about to say.

This matter...

Forget it, talking about it now won't solve anything. Let's talk about it after we get off the plane. Otherwise, we won't be able to do anything except disturb Jiang Jiang's rest.

And so, what was originally a short journey turned into a torment for Lu Shiyan.

With twenty minutes left before disembarking, Lu Shiyan finally waited until Jiang Li woke up.

When Lu Shiyan looked at Jiang Li, he hesitated again, as if he wanted to say something but couldn't.

"Ayan, just say what you want to say, don't look at me like that." Jiang Li couldn't help but rub her forehead. "Can't you just tell me what you want to say? Aren't you a straightforward man anymore?"

The usually indecisive man suddenly became decisive and efficient.

"Jiang Jiang, something has happened to the Jiang family." Lu Shiyan said, his expression complicated, as he composed himself.

Although Lu Shiyan knew that Jiang Li had a bad relationship with the Jiang family.

But no matter what, the Jiang family are her blood relatives, and she can't completely ignore them.

Even if you don't care, you'll still have to worry about it a little.

After saying this, Lu Shiyan's expression became even more worried.

"Huh?" Jiang Li was taken aback. She blinked and asked with a confused expression, "What could possibly happen to the Jiang family?"

"I saw the news in the newspaper that Jiang Chi suddenly fainted and was taken to the hospital." Lu Shiyan simplified the matter, summarizing it in one sentence, "The specific reason wasn't mentioned, but it sounded quite serious."

After a pause, Lu Shiyan continued, "However, those reporters like to exaggerate. It probably isn't anything important, so Jiang Jiang doesn't need to worry too much."

Jiang Li pouted, "Why would I be worried?"

She's not worried at all.

but……

Logically, with the incense and medicinal tea she left behind, Jiang Chi's health should have been improving, so why is it the opposite...?

Did she faint?

This isn't right.

Something's not right.

This uneasy feeling persisted until Jiang Li returned to the Jiang family home.

When they were still some distance from the Jiang family home, Jiang Li asked Lu Shiyan to put her down.

She didn't want the Jiang family to see her coming back with Ayan.

"You still know how to come back!" Jiang Li was startled by a roar as soon as she entered the Jiang family's gate.

Jiang Li subconsciously took a step back and frowned at Jiang Chengzhe in front of her.

"Speak properly if you have something to say, why are you yelling so loudly?" Jiang Li said irritably. "Besides, you all know I went out. What, you're in a bad mood now because you've run into some trouble, so you're taking it out on me?"

"Jiang Li! Have you lost your conscience?" Jiang Chengzhe's face was ashen. "If it weren't for you, how could things have turned out like this?"

Jiang Chengzhe's gaze toward Jiang Li was filled with disgust and hatred.

Although he didn't like Jiang Li, he didn't have such a strong aversion to her.

But now that he knows what Jiang Li did, he wants nothing more than to strangle her.

Such a biological sister should never have been born in the first place.

"Me?" Jiang Li found it incredibly funny. "What did I do this time? Even when I wasn't around, I'm being blamed for someone else's mistakes? What kind of logic is that?"

Jiang Li was truly speechless.

"Are you still going to play dumb now?" Jiang Chengzhe's anger intensified. "Don't think we don't know what you've been doing behind our backs. What you did the night before you left home is something we know all too well!"

Jiang Li's expression instantly turned somewhat strange.

The night before I left home...

oh……

She filled Jiang Chi's tea canister to the brim.

so what?

Just because she added the herbal tea, does she have to take the blame?

"Oh?" Jiang Li looked at Jiang Chengzhe calmly, raising an eyebrow slightly, and asked, "What did I do?"

"You really won't learn your lesson until you're faced with the truth!" Jiang Chengzhe was furious at Jiang Li's attitude. He angrily questioned, "Did you touch Dad's tea canister?"

Jiang Li didn't deny it; she admitted it readily, "I touched her, and then what?"

"And then?" Jiang Chengzhe laughed angrily. "Jiang Li, how dare you ask such a question?"

Jiang Li shrugged and said calmly, "Since you're accusing me like this, I need to know the whole story, right? How can I prove my innocence without finding out the details? That's why I have no face to ask this question."

Jiang Chengzhe's chest heaved violently with anger, and his expression grew even angrier.

"You replaced the original tea leaves in the can with tea leaves containing harmful substances!" Jiang Chengzhe said, his eyes red with anger. "Those harmful substances stimulated the cancer cells in Dad's body, causing them to spread and the tumor to worsen. Now no doctor can come up with a good treatment plan for Dad!"
