Chapter 204: Only Cautious with Her
"It's Yuan Hui..." Chen Qing held the phone in his hand, "You scared me."
"What are you talking about?"
"She felt uncomfortable in the early stages of pregnancy and complained to me, asking me to take measures..." She spoke incoherently, saying whatever came to her mind.
Jiang Jingyan's throat rolled slightly and he took a step forward.
Chen Qing took a step back.
His chest suddenly felt tight, and he pulled her into his arms, his voice floating in the air, "Did you say something bad about me?"
"No." Chen Qing pretended to be calm, his forehead covered in sweat. "Girls are whispering, and you heard it. I'm embarrassed."
It has been getting colder at night recently. Jiang Jingyan was afraid that she would catch a cold, so he held her and brought her into the house.
Chen Qing pretended to be casual, turned around and squeezed out of the small space he had circled, "I haven't taken a shower yet, you are not allowed to come in."
She walked quickly, pulled her pajamas to cover the phone, and went into the bathroom without looking back.
Jiang Jingyan stood by the window with his head lowered, his figure made to disappear in the cold moonlight.
…
The next day, Chen Qing got up early, went downstairs while Jiang Jingyan was still asleep, and told the servant that he was going out.
"Yourself?" Sister Mei was making health tea for Mrs. Jiang. When she heard the noise, she ran out and asked, "Won't Mr. Jiang see you off?"
She smiled and said, "I have something to do at school, so I won't disturb his sleep."
Sister Mei immediately went to the restaurant to get breakfast. "Eat on the way. I'll contact the driver to take you there."
"No, I called a taxi."
"There's no car coming at this hour—"
The phone rang suddenly, and Chen Qingju raised it and shook it, "The car has arrived at the gate of the community."
Sister Mei followed her to the door and reminded her to remember to eat breakfast.
The servants and nanny of the Jiang family all said that Miss Chen was a little too sensible and too polite. Sister Mei thought that she still didn't want to trouble her family by putting on airs this time, so she didn't take it seriously.
Chen Qing contacted You Meng on the way. Driver Zhao stayed overnight at the club and had not left yet.
As long as he can be photographed with someone dealing with Wan Lihong, it will be counted as evidence to accuse Jiang Zhongyi.
It was a one and a half hour drive, and for convenience, Chen Qing hired a car and parked it under the ancient banyan tree across the road.
At nine o'clock, two figures appeared at the door of the club. One was driver Zhao, and the other was Wan Lihong.
The two of them got into a gray car. Her heart suddenly tightened and she patted the driver's seat, "Follow me."
Chen Qing was so nervous that his whole body couldn't help shaking, his teeth were chattering, and his nails dug into his palms, forcing himself to calm down.
Driver Zhao was working for Jiang Zhongyi after all, so he was very alert. She didn't ask him to follow too closely, just to make sure he was within her sight.
After about forty minutes, the gray car arrived at a factory area.
The driver turned around and asked, "Are you still following?"
Chen Qing looked around and saw four or five factories, but not many vehicles coming and going.
"Wait here." She was afraid of alerting the enemy. Driver Zhao brought Wan Lihong here, probably to wait for someone to meet him, and he would come out again.
After waiting quietly for half an hour, a van drove over from a distance.
Chen Qing blinked and confirmed the license plate number again and again.
She held the wrist of the video recorder and held her breath until someone got out of the car and negotiated with the factory guard.
It was like a bucket of ice water was poured over his head, and Chen Qing froze completely.
It’s Daliang.
Who does Daliang work for?
Speak for Jiang Jing.
Driver Zhao dealt with the aftermath for Jiang Zhongyi, and Daliang took over, which means that Jiang Jingyan had known about this for a long time.
Chen Qing slowly put down his phone, his face pale.
She stared blankly at the factory gate, her teeth piercing her lower lip, not noticing the blood beads.
When Daliang came out again, there was obviously a woman in the back seat of the car. The morning sunlight was bright and shone directly into the car window.
The van turned smoothly and when it passed Chen Qing's car, she judged from the profile of the woman's face that it was definitely Wan Lihong.
Not long after Daliang left, driver Zhao also drove out of the factory.
Chen Qing seemed to have lost most of his strength and bones. He slumped down in his chair, his voice hoarse and out of tune. "Let's go."
She was in no mood for lunch during the rehearsal at 1 p.m., so she just waited in the piano room.
Outside the window, begonias were in full bloom, gorgeous and brilliant. Chen Qing stared at them in a trance, his eyes sore and filled with tears.
She didn't want to think about whether Jiang Jingyan took over Wan Lihong to cover up for Jiang Zhongyi or for other purposes. He was smart and should have noticed that there was something fishy about this matter a long time ago, but he never mentioned it.
The thought of it makes me feel heartbroken.
Chen Qingqiang mustered up enough energy to complete the rehearsal. The teacher asked the Chinese Music Department to stay a little longer and add a solo of hers to the piece.
She has fast hand speed and her fingering skills are better than those of her classmates. Yan Baiqing has stepped down, and the department head invited new leaders to visit this year's welcome party, and he wanted to use this to promote it.
Chen Qing was absent-minded and made frequent mistakes, causing his classmates who were playing together to sigh.
"Be serious about bringing honor to the school!" the teacher criticized from the audience, holding up the microphone, with an unhappy look on his face, "Chen Qing, is this your usual level?"
She bowed to apologize, closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and started over.
In the evening, the teacher was finally satisfied and told her to go back and practice hard so that she could perform well in the next day.
Chen Qing packed up his things and returned to the dormitory, then sent a message to Jiang Jingyan.
Jiang's house.
Lian Zhuo brought a cup of hot water and handed over his phone, "Miss Chen is looking for you."
The man was half lying and half sitting on the bed, with an IV drip hanging on his body. His bony face looked vaguely sick. I took it and examined it.
"She's not coming back tonight." Jiang Jingyan's smile was mixed with indulgence, and his voice was as hoarse as it could be. "That's just right, so she won't nag you when she sees her." Lian Zhuo tucked in the corners of the quilt for him and sighed silently.
The illness came like a mountain falling. Jiang Jingyan hadn't been sick for several years. He could usually bear a headache or fever, but this time he had been worried and stressed for several days in a row. All the work was weighing on him, and his rest time could be counted on one hand. In the morning, the nanny saw that he was taking a long time to get up and felt something was wrong. She pushed the door open and came in, and found him unconscious with a fever.
"How is Wan Lihong?"
Lian Zhuo said seriously, "Your mental state isn't very good. Daliang didn't dare to ask any more questions. The psychiatrists are here. Let's check and rest first."
"Have you found out who took her away?"
"When Daliang went to pick her up, he didn't see her. The factory's surveillance footage from that time period had been destroyed. I think Wan Lihong probably didn't know the details of Li Xiangli's report, otherwise the people who took her away wouldn't let her go so easily."
"uncertain."
Lian Zhuo lowered his head and said, "I understand. I'll ask her myself when she recovers."
Jiang Jingyan hummed and continued to review the documents at hand. "Director Hou can't get anything out of Vice President Lin anymore. Just tell him to hold steady. Also, tell the chairman that I'll be visiting him tomorrow morning."
"Tomorrow morning?" Lian Zhuo was surprised. "Aren't you going to rest?"
"Lie down for a day, that's enough."
He wanted to say something else, but Jiang Jingyan rubbed his brow. Under the scorching white light, he looked extremely tired. "Is my father back?"
"No, Secretary Liang sent a message. The province has made arrangements according to your request and is awaiting your further instructions."
"Tell her not to worry. Father has submitted a report and there are changes."
Lian Zhuo responded and stared at him with a heavy heart.
Huasheng, Jiang family, Chen family, Yan family, four big mountains are on Jiang Jingyan's shoulders. He can still handle them, but when it comes to Chen Qing, he has to be extremely cautious. He has to help her touch the truth without leaving any trace, and he is also worried about her safety and emotions.
Even if Chen Qing directed his attack at his father, he could not stop it.
