Chapter 362: Coma
Time flies.
Su Man received news from the Criminal Police Brigade, saying that they had been on surveillance for a week and had discovered that Xiao Beisheng was meeting with Man Kun and others. Although they still had no conclusive evidence, the two groups of people were accompanied by bodyguards every day and their behavior was suspicious. Based on past experience, the police judged that there was a 70% chance of success in this arrest.
On the tenth day, Xiao Beisheng and Man Kun officially started their transaction.
The two groups of people appeared at Nanfu Wharf as scheduled.
As previously agreed, a foreign ship docked at the pier, carrying a large amount of Chinese medicinal materials.
Boxes of containers with foreign nationality logos were unloaded in the port of Haicheng so brazenly that the police officers disguised as plainclothes were furious.
This is so arrogant that it has no regard for the law.
Dock workers were coming and going, unloading boxes of goods.
Man Kun took Xiao Beisheng with him and walked among the goods, taking inventory and inspecting them.
Seeing that the situation was mature, the police leader issued an order. In an instant, the plainclothes officers who were lying in ambush on all sides rushed to the unloading point at the dock.
A group of people, only Xiao Beisheng and Man Kun were blocked;
Another group of people went to search the boxes containing so-called "Chinese medicinal materials".
As long as the criminals are caught red-handed, Xiao Beisheng and Man Kun’s guilt will be confirmed.
But the arrest was not as smooth as expected.
Xiao Beisheng and Man Kun both brought bodyguards and thugs.
As soon as they saw the armed forces rushing towards them, the bodyguards and thugs were not to be outdone and they all rose up to resist.
For a moment, the scene was in extreme chaos.
In the chaos, Xiao Beisheng was hit by a stray bullet.
When Su Man heard the news, she was in the kitchen, preparing dessert for Qiao Shixin. She panicked and the plate in her hand slipped to the ground. With a crisp "crack", the plate shattered into pieces.
According to feedback from the scene, Xiao Beisheng seemed to have been shot while trying to save others.
Luo Yan was also present, as if to protect Luo Yan.
Su Man did not ask Fang Zhiming any more questions about Xiao Beisheng's situation. Fang Zhiming said bitterly:
"Unfortunately, I don't know what went wrong and alerted the enemy. Those boxes actually contained only Chinese herbal medicine! My classmate made an error in judgment and acted on his own, disobeying his superiors' orders and even hurt someone. I don't know if he will be punished. I'm afraid it will be even more difficult to catch them next time."
After hanging up the phone, Su Man had not yet recovered from the amount of information she had just received.
Just when she was at home, having a happy meal with her family, chatting calmly with Qiao Shixin, and spending time with her children, such a fierce dispute had already occurred at Nanfu Wharf.
In order to save Luo Yan, Xiao Beisheng was shot and injured. Is his injury serious?
How is he doing now?
…
"Manman, are you okay?" Qiao Shiyan rushed to the kitchen immediately. "I just heard the sound of a plate breaking."
Su Man came back to her senses and forced a smile, "My hands were stained with foam just now, and they slipped and I couldn't hold it firmly."
As she spoke, she squatted down and picked up the broken porcelain pieces on the ground.
Qiao Shiyan quickly stopped him: "Don't use your hands——"
Before she could finish her words, Su Man's hand was cut, and a scarlet stain soon appeared on her delicate white fingertips.
Qiao Shiyan took a few steps forward and squatted in front of Su Man. He grabbed her hand, unable to hide the pain on his face. "Does it hurt?"
Su Man shook her head: "It's just a small cut."
Qiao Shiyan pulled out a tissue from the side and gently wrapped it around Su Man's wound, pressing it. "You go out, I'll clean up here."
"I'm sorry to bother you."
"You'd be doing me a disservice if you hurt yourself."
Su Man was silent for a while, and couldn't help asking: "We are about to get divorced, why are you still so nice to me?"
"I'm divorcing you, not because I want to, but because I respect your opinion. I don't want to divorce you."
"But if you're with me, you'll bear a lot of pressure that you don't need to bear. And I can't respond to your feelings."
"I don't need it," Qiao Shiyan said. "I said those harsh words the other day not because I felt you had implicated me, but because... I was jealous. I was jealous that you and Bei Sheng were so close, and I was also jealous that even though you were divorced and had new lives, he was still in your life, like a shadow that couldn't be shaken off."
Since Su Man didn't mention Luna, Qiao Shiyan avoided talking about it.
Luna is his biggest weakness.
His love for Suman is a gorgeous robe that he has carefully woven.
But the momentary impulse towards Luna became a stain on the robe.
He will have to try his best to cover up this flaw for the rest of his life in order to keep the love he gives to Suman flawless.
He forgot about Luna and hugged Su Man into his arms, firmly and carefully, "Man Man, let's not get divorced, okay?"
Su Man was stunned for a moment.
"I..." She pushed Qiao Shiyan away, "I'm very confused right now. Let's calm down and think about this carefully."
After saying that, she ran out of the kitchen.
That night, Qiao Shixin didn't get to eat dessert, and Su Man went back to her room and didn't come out again.
She hid in the room, unable to control herself, and kept browsing social news and legal news, but there was not a single piece of news reporting the erroneous arrest operation that took place at Nanfu Wharf today.
Perhaps the authorities felt it was a loss of face, so they suppressed it.
In short, no news may be the best news.
Xiao Beisheng may have only suffered minor injuries.
The next day.
Su Man went to the Xiao family's old house to teach Xiao Tian, and did not hear Xiao Tian and Old Madam Xiao mention anything about Xiao Beisheng. The Xiao family was normal.
Su Man was completely relieved.
She thought self-deprecatingly: Xiao Beisheng was injured while trying to save Luo Yan, and Luo Yan must be with him now. Why should she, Su Man, an outsider, worry about it?
After all, Xiao Beisheng had warned her that 'his affairs have nothing to do with her, and it's not her business'. He has distanced himself from her so clearly, why should she bother to curry favor with him?
She should be worried about herself now.
Xiao Beisheng and Man Kun saw through the ambush and took advantage of the situation.
The ones who suffered the loss this time were the police.
If Xiao Beisheng wanted to investigate, the first person he would suspect would be Su Man.
As expected.
On the third day, Suman was trembling with fear.
Gao Xun came to the door.
It just so happened that Doudou was crying in the room, and Suman went to the baby room to look after Doudou. Qiao Shixin did not disturb Suman, but went out to meet Gao Xun on Suman's behalf.
"What?! Your CEO Xiao is seriously injured and unconscious, and he wants to see my sister-in-law?"
"Yes, please help convey it to Miss Qiao."
"I don't want help. He's injured, why is he looking for my sister-in-law? Doesn't he have a wife of his own? Where's Luo Yan? He doesn't look for his own wife, but comes looking for someone else's wife. I've never heard of or seen such a thing!"
Her brother and sister-in-law are still in a marital crisis, how can they let others take advantage of the situation?
What's more, this man is my sister-in-law's ex-husband.
This ex-husband has no sense of boundaries!
Qiao Shixin drove Gao Xun away.
Su Man heard the noise and came out of the house, "Who's here?"
"Brother Tiantian's special assistant said he wanted to look for you, and I had a fight with him."
"Why are they arguing?" Su Man was a little surprised when she heard Gao Xun coming. She was even more surprised when she heard them arguing.
Gao Xun has always been kind-tempered, easy to talk to, and never gets angry with others.
"Tiantian's cousin was injured and said he wanted to see you. I asked him, 'Mr. Xiao, doesn't he have a wife? Why did he come to see my sister-in-law?' Sister-in-law, do you know what the special assistant said? He said that Miss Luo Yan was not here and she went out of town for business. Good boy, I was so angry that I suddenly got furious. What does this mean? Luo Yan is not here, so it's your turn, sister-in-law? And why should you go? If a tiger doesn't show its power, it will treat you as a sick cat, right? I was so angry that I drove him away. If he doesn't leave, I will drive him away with a kitchen knife."
Qiao Shixin added some exaggeration and recounted what had just happened.
The key information that Xiao Beisheng was seriously injured and unconscious was omitted, and only said that the other side was bullying others.
