Jiang Lai had more important things to do right now, so he left without saying goodbye to Ji Jiamu.
Chi Zhan chased after him.
Luo Nanqing put away her pitiful and aggrieved look and asked Ji Jiamu, "You didn't let anything slip, did you?"
…
As the elevator went down, Chi Zhan wanted to speak several times, but he didn't know where to start.
Jiang Lai stared at the slowly decreasing red number and remained silent.
Chi Zhan followed her all the way until she entered the pharmacy.
"Yes...I...what's wrong with you?"
Jiang Lai shook her head and asked the clerk for birth control pills.
Chi Zhan pursed his lips and his eyes were filled with coldness.
"I took measures last night."
Jiang Lai nodded, went out to buy some water, swallowed the pill, and asked, "Do you remember what happened next?"
Chi Zhan stopped talking.
He turned around and went to the pharmacy and bought the same medicine.
Jiang Lai said, "Go and have her take the medicine first. I'll go ask the front desk."
Chi Zhan reached out and grabbed Jiang Lai, "Come with me."
Jiang Lai shook his head. "I'm afraid someone will destroy the evidence."
In this matter, Chi Zhan's first suspicion was Ji Jiamu.
He is not as simple as he looks.
"You won't get anything out of it if you ask now."
Jiang Lai's face looked a little ugly.
So many hours have passed since I fell asleep in the early morning. If the other party had a plan, they would not be able to find out anything.
She followed Chi Zhan to the top floor of the hotel.
I watched him knock on Luo Nanqing's door, and after a while, the door was opened from the inside.
Luo Nanqing only showed her head and looked at Chi Zhan timidly, "A Zhan..."
A hint of emotion flashed across Chi Zhan's dark eyes, but there was no expression on his stern face.
He handed over the medicine.
When Luo Nanqing saw the words on the medicine box, she lowered her eyes and suppressed the vicious look in them.
The voice was aggrieved: "A Zhan, what do you mean?"
This matter has not been investigated clearly yet. Even though Luo Nanqing is his sister who grew up with him, people will change after being apart for a few years.
It was impossible for him not to doubt her a little.
Chi Zhan's voice was neither cold nor hot, "Eat it, it will be good for you."
Luo Nanqing turned around and took out a medicine box. When she looked up again, her eyes were full of tears. "I have already taken it, A Zhan. I heard that you can't take too many birth control pills at once. It will hurt your body."
Jiang Lai couldn't help but ask, "When did you buy it?"
It’s not that she has no sympathy at all, but Luo Nanqing’s behavior in front of her doesn’t seem so simple.
But she didn't expect that as soon as she asked this question, Luo Nanqing started crying.
They rolled down in large drops, as if they had suffered a great injustice.
"I know you will doubt me. Even if I defend myself, you won't completely believe me. So let's use the evidence to see what really happened."
"Ah Zhan, I promised you I wouldn't tell anyone. I've already taken the medicine. If you don't believe me, I'll take your box too."
"Even if I'm physically injured by then, I won't blame you. You're thinking about me. Not being able to have a child is better than getting pregnant out of wedlock."
As she spoke, she took the medicine box from Chi Zhan's hand and asked Chi Zhan to take it.
"You should rest."
After saying this, he pulled Jiang Lai and turned into the elevator.
Ji Jiamu chased after her and said, "Sister, eat something to fill your stomach."
He handed Jiang Lai a piece of toast and milk and continued, "When you're done, let's go eat something delicious. I found a restaurant that has good reviews and also has local specialties."
Jiang Lai was really hungry, but Chi Zhan didn't let her take the food.
"No need to bother you, I'll take her to eat."
Ji Jiamu just hung his head and said, "Yes, Master Chi can certainly take sister to eat more expensive food. Let sister fill her stomach first. If she keeps hungry, her appetite will be ruined."
Chi Zhan had always looked down on Ji Jiamu, and the fact that he acted as if nothing had happened only increased his suspicion.
"From now on, just call her by her name."
Ji Jiamu complained to Jiang Lai, "Sister, he is too overbearing. He even controls how others address you."
Jiang Lai's mind was in a mess and she really couldn't think of any way to mediate, so she reached out and pulled at the hem of Chi Zhan's clothes.
Chi Zhan held her hand, interlocking their fingers.
He looked at Ji Jiamu coldly and said, "Jiang Lai is my girlfriend now. You'd better have some sense of boundaries. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude."
Ji Jiamu wasn't angry either. His eyes were filled with sadness. "No matter who my sister chooses, I will bless her. As long as she is happy, I am willing to do anything. Mr. Chi, your childhood sweetheart came out of your room after all. Shouldn't you give her some responsibility?"
"Is it inappropriate for you to assert your sovereignty over me now?"
Chi Zhan couldn't stand Ji Jiamu's pretending to be pitiful in order to win the kindness of women.
It is not his place as a young man who can only talk nice things but has no skills to interfere in his work.
But before he could speak, Ji Jiamu said again: "That's right, with Mr. Chi's background, he wants both, and no one dares to say anything."
"Anyone who is rich and powerful has several women."
I was in an elevator, but it felt like I was in a refrigerator.
Jiang Lai had no choice but to speak: "Stop talking, I have tinnitus and want some quiet time."
Chi Zhan didn't say anything at all, and Ji Jiamu shut up obediently.
At this time, the elevator arrived. Jiang Lai pulled Chi Zhan down first, and Ji Jiamu followed behind.
Arriving at the front desk, Jiang Lai didn't see the girl who had given her the room card last night. She asked, "What time does the shift change?"
The unfamiliar receptionist said, "My shift is changing at 8:00 this morning. Who are you looking for?"
Jiang Lai: "The one who worked the night shift last night with the small mole on her neck, give me her contact information."
At this moment, the receptionist received information from the manager when she was handing over her shift.
These top-level guests in front of us cannot be neglected.
He immediately gave Jiang Lai his phone number.
Jiang Lai called and heard a mechanical tone. She said to Chi Zhan, "It's turned off."
Chi Zhan said concisely, "Contact the owner of your hotel."
The front desk did not have such broad authority, so they quickly called the lobby manager to explain the situation.
In just a few seconds, the manager rushed over and bowed to Chi Zhan, "Boss Chi."
Chi Zhan's expression was indifferent. "Call your boss, you have no control over this matter."
The manager was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat.
If he can't even handle it, it must be a huge issue. Could it be that he can't do his job as lobby manager anymore?
He didn't dare to refute and quickly called his immediate superior.
"Laila, what happened?"
Jiang Yunshu and Xiao Lan woke up from their nap and took their children out for a walk. They saw Jiang Lai and others at the front desk and went up to ask them.
Jiang Lai shook his head, "It's a small matter, you and Teacher Xiao go play, don't worry."
Jiang Yunshu knew Chi Zhan's background, so she thought there would be no problem. She still said, "Call me anytime if you need help."
"Okay." Jiang Lai agreed and then said, "Don't tell Ruan Ruan, she and Zhou Fang are on their honeymoon on the boat. It's not a big deal here, so don't disturb them."
As soon as these words came out, Jiang Yunshu knew that Jiang Lai was lying.
In the past, she would always appear with full makeup, from hair accessories, earrings, necklaces, bracelets and clothes, all of which were matched to perfection.
Today, not only was she without makeup, she was also wearing a very casual outfit with the buttons out of place.
She wasn't wearing any jewelry or having a bag, just a cell phone in her hand.
"Then tell Aunt Shu the truth."
Jiang Lai didn't want Jiang Yunshu to think too much and start to think in the wrong way, so he pulled her aside and explained it briefly.
Jiang Yunshu's expression changed after hearing this. "Such a big thing, and you're still talking to me about trivial matters?"
