Because of Nian Nian, you want to kill him?
Si Boye paused.
He had never really considered this possibility before.
Upon hearing this, Qin Ji subconsciously said, "How is that possible? How could Niannian, a high school student, possibly get involved with someone like that..."
Before he could finish speaking, Qin Ji himself couldn't continue.
An ordinary high school student would certainly not provoke such a person.
But Jiang Nian is anything but ordinary.
Si Boye suddenly looked at the Ji family members, as if something had occurred to him: "Big brother, has Niannian mentioned her adoptive father to you?"
The man who took Niannian abroad and raised her single-handedly, whom Niannian described as cold-blooded and cruel.
Niannian said that she returned to China only after she had plotted to kill that man.
What if that man actually didn't die?
Ji Yanli and the others also looked bewildered.
They didn't want to reopen their sister's old wounds, so they didn't ask her about her past before she returned to the Ji family.
Si Boye took a deep breath and told everyone present what Jiang Nian had told him about the past that night.
They all unanimously felt that the man Si Boye was talking about was too perverted.
How could someone kill a seven-year-old child without batting an eye? Although the woman who abused Nian Nian certainly deserved to die.
They also made a seven-year-old child dissect a live rabbit with his own hands, and threw a child into a dark room full of dead people just to toughen his mind.
They even had someone kill Niannian's only friend, just to teach her a lesson, to prevent her from easily giving her feelings to others and from trusting them.
It is full of a desire for control.
Ji Qiyue's eyes widened in shock: "So, this man might not be dead."
"Maybe he found out you were with Niannian, so he wanted to kill you and take Niannian away?"
Everyone was initially relieved to finally have a clue, but then they couldn't help but gasp.
Niannian once plotted to kill that man.
If it really was that man who took her away, could it be that he was trying to take revenge on her, torment her, or do something to hurt her?
"...I'm going to the United States."
Si Boye struggled to keep his body upright.
Although I don't know the man's identity.
But at least now we have a direction.
However, at that moment, his phone suddenly rang without warning.
Lin Qian always carries Si Boye's official cell phone. This is his personal cell phone.
Besides family and friends, the only person I contacted was Jiang Nian.
But now, my family and friends are all here.
Could it be Niannian calling?
The moment Si Boye realized what was happening, he immediately reached for his phone, not caring at all that the bleeding from his wound was aggravated.
The caller was from an unknown number.
Moreover, it's not a domestic number.
My heart was about to jump out of my chest.
Si Boye took a deep breath and answered the phone, immediately pressing speakerphone. His voice trembled involuntarily: "...Niannian, is that you?"
The voice on the other end of the phone was that of a young girl, still a little childish, but relaxed: "Looks like you're alright, you're not dead yet."
It's not about thinking about it.
But the voice sounded somewhat familiar.
Si Boye gripped his phone tightly: "Who are you?"
“I’m Joey, Mr. Si, do you remember me?”
Joey?
Si Boye certainly remembered.
She is the youngest princess of the Mellon family, one of the four major conglomerates in the United States, and also the younger sister of Nian Nian's deceased friend.
The murder video that Nian Nian was exposed to in public at the UK was released by this Joey.
However, she seemed to have given up on opposing Niannian afterward. Before returning to M country, she even met with Niannian.
Si Boye frowned: "You..."
“I heard about what happened back home,” Joey said. “Before you and Jiang Nian went to the banquet, you were in a car accident. You were shot, and Jiang Nian went missing.”
Si Boye suddenly looked up: "You know where Niannian is?"
On the other end of the phone, Joey asked calmly, "Are Jiang Nian's other family members with you right now?"
"I have good news and bad news. Which do you want to hear first?"
No one else understood what was going on.
But everyone became tense.
"...Good news."
Si Boye's chest heaved as he slowly uttered a sentence.
Then Joey said, "The good news is that Jiang Nian is alright. She's in the US right now, sitting in the class next to mine at Hughes Academy."
ah?
Everyone was stunned.
Niannian is fine. Is she studying in the US now?
Why didn't she contact them or let them know she was safe?
Si Boye felt as if he had been pulled back from hell and come back to life.
Realizing what was happening, she asked, "What bad news?"
“The bad news is,” Joey paused, lowering his voice to a more serious tone, “she doesn’t remember me.”
Si Boye paused, "What do you mean by not remembering you?"
“It’s exactly what it sounds like,” Joey said. “She’s a really nice person. She transferred to the school today and has bodyguards protecting her. I feel like if anyone dares to touch her, that man might pull out a gun and kill them.”
“If her true identity is indeed the sole heir of Shenyin, you don’t need to worry about her safety. I heard that Lu Zhaokun loves her to death.”
"But I've also heard that Lu Zhaokun is a very ruthless man."
“I ran into Jiang Nian at school today, and she doesn’t remember me at all. If she hasn’t contacted you, then she must not remember you either.”
“I suspect that Lu Zhaokun used some means to erase her memories of China.”
