Chapter 677 Xi Jiu's White Moonlight Ten Years Ago (Part 2)
Ruan Qi naturally hoped that it was Xu Qingya herself who contacted her.
It doesn’t matter if it’s someone else. As long as she has this video in her hand, she is sure to cause chaos in the Cheng family.
Cheng Jiabin's call did not have any impact on Ruan Qi, but his marriage with the Liu family made Ruan Qi a little curious.
"Why would Cheng Jiabin get involved with the Liu family? Cheng Qi dislikes the Liu family so much. Even if Cheng Jiabin wants to seize the inheritance, shouldn't he choose another family to marry into?"
Seeing the little girl's curiosity, Xi Jiu looked up at her and said, "This matter has something to do with you."
Ruan Qi: “?”
"It's related to me? I don't even know Cheng Jiabin, what does it have to do with me?"
Ruan Qi looked confused.
Xi Jiu: "Who are Cheng Jiabin's parents, baby, have you forgotten?"
Ruan Qi was slightly stunned, and suddenly remembered that Cheng Jiabin's parents were Cheng Qing and He Yun from the third branch of the Cheng family.
He Yun has a niece named He Siwen. He Siwen once mistakenly thought that Gu Feiyang liked her and went to the Daxian store to cause trouble for her.
But how did He Siwen cause trouble for her?
Ruan Qi tried hard to recall, but unexpectedly found a blank in that memory.
She only remembered that day she went to Daxian store to give Gu Feiyang acupuncture, and then He Siwen broke in.
What did He Siwen say at that time?
How come she doesn't remember anything at all?
A year later, Ruan Qi realized that something was amiss with her memory. After He Siwen's incident, she'd somehow ended up in a coma and been hospitalized. Upon waking, everyone said she'd fallen into a coma from a high fever. Ruan Qi didn't think much of it, believing she'd just had a fever.
But as her past memories slowly returned, Ruan Qi suddenly realized that the reason she was admitted to the hospital that time might not be a high fever.
There are gaps in her memory.
According to Ruan Qi's past experience, her memory would only go blank when she lost control of her emotions when she mentioned something that happened ten years ago.
But what did He Siwen do or say to make her lose control of her emotions?
Could it be that He Siwen knows what happened ten years ago?
Somehow, Ruan Qi felt that what He Siwen said that day was very important. But she couldn't remember it no matter how hard she tried, and her head started to hurt.
"Jiujiu, did He Siwen say anything when she went to the Daxian store to cause trouble?"
Ruan Qi held her head in her hand while she spoke because of a headache, so she didn't notice Xi Jiu's expression suddenly changing.
Xi Jiu knew exactly what He Siwen said that day because he was there too.
At the time, He Siwen believed Ruan Qi and Gu Feiyang had an improper relationship and was filled with jealousy towards Ruan Qi. Later, Xi Jiu revealed that Ruan Qi was his girlfriend. For some unknown reason, He Siwen blurted out that he had a lover in Shanghai ten years ago and had been in a vegetative state for two years because of her.
That time, Ruan Qi fainted and her life was hanging by a thread because she heard the sensitive word "ten years ago".
The gaps in her memory were caused by the stimulation.
Xi Jiu didn't dare tell Ruan Qi about these things.
Although Ruan Qi's memory has been gradually restored and she is slowly accepting what happened ten years ago, her mental state is still on the verge of collapse.
Those white moonlight vegetative states that He Siwen mentioned may very well become the straw that breaks the camel's back for Ruan Qi.
Xi Jiu could only lie bluntly: "He Siwen was talking about some old things that happened between her and Gu Feiyang ten years ago. You were shocked when you heard 'ten years ago', so you fainted."
"...That's it?" Ruan Qi didn't quite believe it.
Xi Jiu nodded calmly, "That's it. Baby, you should know how sensitive you are to the word 'ten years ago'."
Xi Jiu's words were full of logic.
But Ruan Qi always felt that something was not right.
Although she is sensitive about what happened ten years ago, she is not so fragile that she can't even bear to hear the word "ten years ago", right?
Those TV dramas often have plots like "ten years ago" and "twenty years ago", and she was never stimulated when memorizing the lines.
Ruan Qi vaguely felt that what He Siwen mentioned that day was not just about ten years ago.
Maybe there's something else.
But Xi Jiu didn't tell her, and Ruan Qi couldn't force him to tell her.
Why don’t we ask Gu Feiyang?
As soon as this idea came up, it was rejected by Ruan Qi.
He definitely wouldn't say that Gu Feiyang and Xi Jiu were wearing the same pants.
Xi Jiu didn't say anything, and Gu Feiyang didn't say anything either, so the only one left was... He Siwen herself.
Ever since He Siwen caused trouble and landed Ruan Qi in the hospital, Ruan Qi hadn't seen He Siwen since. Not only He Siwen, but the entire He family had left the capital, their whereabouts unknown.
Ruan Qi knew that this must be Xi Jiu's work.
Xi Jiu was so worried about her, and He Siwen had even gotten her into the hospital, so Xi Jiu naturally wouldn't let this person go.
But where did he take He Siwen?
Will He Siwen's aunt, He Yun, Cheng Jiabin's biological mother, know about this?
Ruan Qi deduced a hundred possibilities in a few moments.
Xi Jiu knew how clever she was, so he didn't dare let her continue thinking. He brought the topic back to Cheng Jiabin: "After the He Siwen incident, everyone in the circle knew that the He family had offended me. He Yun and Cheng Qing were also implicated, and their status in the Cheng family plummeted. This time, they arranged for their son Cheng Jiabin to marry into the Liu family. It must have been a helpless move. Apart from the Liu family, they couldn't find a better marriage partner."
He Yun's niece He Siwen offended Xi Jiu, and her husband Cheng Qing was also implicated.
Anyone in this circle who is not a fool will stay away from this couple.
Except the Liu family.
The Liu family was on the decline and was desperate for a chance to turn things around. Under these circumstances, they had no choice but to choose Cheng Jiabin.
Cheng Qing and He Yun also had no choice.
If they wanted to seize the Cheng family's inheritance, they had to find a marriage partner for Cheng Jiabin. Other wealthy families avoided them like the plague, so they had no choice but to choose the Liu family.
No matter how poor the Liu family is, they are still a skinny camel. As long as it is a camel, it will always be useful if you feed and raise it.
Xi Jiu told Ruan Qi about the bad things happening between the Liu family and the third branch of the Cheng family as gossip.
Ruan Qi suddenly understood after hearing this.
"No wonder Cheng Jiabin was so nervous about Liu Feng's video. He was afraid that Cheng Qi would blame the Liu family because of the video and not allow him to marry, right?"
Xi Jiu nodded.
Ruan Qi couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
The Cheng and Liu families are such a mess. You plot against me and I plot against you. It's even more exciting than the inner workings of a palace, and there's never a day of peace.
However, there is one thing that is very beneficial to Ruan Qi——
The one who wants to marry into the Liu family is Cheng Jiabin, and Cheng Jiabin's mother is He Yun.
Will He Yun contact her personally for the sake of his son's marriage and interests?
If that was the case, she could just ask He Yun about the whereabouts of her niece He Siwen.
As long as she can find He Siwen, she can find out what happened in the Daxian store that day.
Ruan Qi had a premonition that what He Siwen said that day was extremely important to her.
