"You little bastard! You! How could you really get engaged to him? This guy is no pushover. If you mess with him someday, he'll eat you to the bone!"
"oh."
Faced with Jian Ci's indifferent look, the old man was really anxious, "No, I don't agree to this marriage! I will find you someone more reliable than Qin Jiang."
Jian Ci, however, sat on the sofa and reminded slowly, "Two hours ago, Qin Shizheng and I just completed our engagement ceremony."
"Then cancel the engagement!" the old man said without hesitation.
If he had known that Jian Ci was serious about it, he would have risked his life to disrupt the wedding on the spot, no matter how poor his health was.
But Jian Ci also refused, "I don't agree."
The old man was immediately furious and anxious. "You, little girl, really have no idea how terrifying this guy is! Back then, the third branch of the Qin family opposed him, and he ended up exiling them abroad. They haven't dared to come back yet."
Jian Ci curled her lips and smiled, "It seems that you are quite lenient towards your family."
When the old man heard this, he almost got angry.
How can this be considered showing mercy!
If the old lady of the Qin family had not pleaded repeatedly, the third son of the Qin family would have been thrown out of the back mountain to feed the wolves.
"So you don't care that he's a cripple?" The old man thought for a long time and finally came up with a legitimate reason. "If he encounters anything in the future, he won't be able to take care of himself, let alone protect you."
Jian Ci looked at the old man with a subtle look, "Have you forgotten what I do?"
Old man: “…”
Yes, he forgot that his granddaughter is also a doctor.
But the more this happened, the angrier he became.
But he couldn't do anything about Jian Ci, because he knew very well that once this girl made a decision, there was no room for maneuver.
So, after pacing anxiously in the room for a long time, he finally compromised and said, "Okay, then let him come home for dinner tomorrow."
Jian Ci's expression paused.
Seeing her reaction, the old man seemed to have noticed something and snorted, "You are not making your fake play real, are you?"
Jian Ci immediately said expressionlessly: "When the person arrives, just let me treat the patient obediently."
"Okay, let's get the person here first."
After the old man finished speaking, he went upstairs to rest.
Only Jian Ci was left sitting there.
Chen Ling, who was sitting next to her, looked at her expression, which was so calm that there was not even a ripple in her expression. She couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "What should we do? We're going to be exposed."
Jian Ci half-closed her eyes and said, "At worst, I can get some tranquilizers and feed them to him."
Chen Ling was immediately frightened and quickly advised: "Calm down, calm down, he is your own grandfather, it shouldn't be like this."
Just as she finished speaking, the phone in Jian Ci's pocket vibrated.
She glanced at the special number on it, then made an excuse and said, "I'm going to the kitchen to drink some water and calm down."
Then he went into the kitchen.
"Have you found the person?" Jian Ci asked after pressing the call button.
A Yuan, the subordinate on the other end, said in a somewhat depressed tone: "Sorry, Boss, I didn't complete the task. According to the information you gave me, when I went to look for him, I found that the place had been raided and the man named Yu San was missing."
Jian Ci frowned slightly.
The person is missing?
"I later checked and only found that Yu San had been taken to the police station, but the internal backend quickly erased this information, and I could no longer find it."
Jian Ci thought for a moment and said, "I understand. I will go and check it out myself when the time comes."
At worst, I could go to the police station's archives and check it in person after dark.
Upon hearing this, Ayuan became excited. "Boss, are you in Kyoto? Can I come find you? Then we can investigate together!"
"No, the old man has been keeping a close eye on me lately, so it's more convenient for me to be alone."
Just as Jian Ci finished speaking, someone suddenly said from behind, "What do you mean the old man is watching you closely?"
She turned her head and saw Chen Ling appear at the kitchen door at some point.
Jian Ci hung up the phone and asked calmly, "Why are you so elusive?"
Chen Ling was very alert at this moment, "Don't change the subject, what are you doing behind the old man's back?"
"I'm not doing anything, just looking for someone." Jian Ci leaned on the edge of the table and said calmly.
Chen Ling frowned, "Who are you looking for?"
Jian Ci: "A traitor who stole my blueprints two years ago."
When she heard the story two years ago, Chen Ling's eyelids jumped.
He immediately pretended to be nonchalant and said, "It's just a blueprint. With your ability, you can easily make ten or even a hundred drawings, not just one. Why waste your energy on this?"
In response to this, Jian Ci played with the teacup and said nonchalantly, "No matter how many designs I have, they are my own abilities. It doesn't mean others can meddle with them at will."
His posture was still lazy, but there was a hint of solemnity between the lines.
Chen Ling couldn't help but feel a little nervous. "Have you found out where the other party is?"
Jian Ci hummed calmly, "It took me a few months, but I finally found some useful information."
"How many months?"
Chen Ling was shocked.
You know, she was still recuperating in Yuncheng a few months ago.
The old man and the master kept an eye on her every day.
It is really surprising that she is doing all these things under the noses of so many people!
But then she thought of a more critical issue.
"So you listened to the old man and came back to get engaged but that was fake, and you were really looking for someone?!"
Jian Ci raised the corner of her lips slightly, "Not entirely, but finding someone is the first thing I have to deal with right now, and there are still many things to be dealt with later."
