Chapter 245 An Unexpected Encounter on the Train Back to the Capital



Leng Yan raised his hand and touched Lu Yufei's cheek, then shook his head: "It's alright, it's all over."

"That's good."

Xiang Ming led his men into the ruins and later reported back.

"Young Master Jing, no remains were found."

In other words, Aunt Jing and Nan Shiran did not die.

They ran away.

"police officer!"

A police officer ran up and said, "We've found a cellar."

Xiang Ming immediately ran after the police officer to investigate.

The cellar leads directly to the bedroom where Jing Chi used to live.

Footprints were found in the cellar, but Nan Shiran and Aunt Jing were not found. Instead, a middle-aged man was found trapped in the cellar.

The man had long hair and was unkempt.

"Master!"

When Li Ying saw the man, she immediately recognized him as her master, Master Qian.

This Mr. Qian is over fifty years old, but because he looks young, he looks no more than forty. Perhaps because he has been imprisoned for too long, his hair is very long.

“Yingying…” Old Qian choked up, “I am unworthy of the title of Master.”

Xiang Ming had someone take Mr. Qian to the hospital, and the others went back to their respective homes. Further investigation of the scene was still needed.

"It must have been Nan Shiran who took Aunt Jing away," Li Ying concluded.

Jing Chi remained silent, lost in thought.

Tang Qiao and Ye Wennian came to find Leng Yan and already knew that he was the third son of the Ye family. Tang Qiao hugged Leng Yan and wept uncontrollably.

Seeing this scene, Jing Chi felt an indescribable pang of sorrow.

Li Ying held his hand: "Jing Chi, you still have me, and you still have Chenchen."

Jing Chi nodded, then took Li Ying's hand in return: "Once things are settled here, I need to go back to the capital to report. Would you like to come back with me?"

"Of course I'd like to. I even own property in Beijing."

Jing Chi said with shame, "I didn't agree to you buying the house back then, but now I realize that you were the one with foresight."

Li Ying smiled slightly, pursing her lips.

"I just hope that my life in the future will not have too many troubles, and that I can just be happy."

Li Ying visited Mr. Qian at the hospital, and Tang Shimu also came to visit him at the same time.

Mr. Qian would not blame Tang Shimu for going into the clothing business; everyone has their own ambitions.

As for Li Ying, Qian Lao had high hopes for her.

"Master, what are you doing in the Jing family's cellar?"

Old Qian waved his hand: "It was my carelessness that made me say this. When I treated Tang Yu, she paid me. I don't know when, but she joined forces with the Nan family and locked me in the cellar. They also took one of my documents."

"Master, where did you get those documents?"

Old Qian frowned: "Speaking of these documents, I still don't understand how these books appeared in my place. I thought the contents were very good, so I kept them. There were four books in total. I gave one to your eldest brother and another to your second brother. The other two were bought by Tang Yu at a high price."

Li Ying fell into deep thought.

Tang Yu bought those two documents, and now their whereabouts are unknown.

What exactly is she trying to do?

"I think Tang Yu was used by the Nan family. Those documents should be with the Nan family now. Because the Nan family is a family that makes drugs, they are very interested in these books," Old Qian revealed the answer.

"Master, after you recover, please come back to the capital with us?" Li Ying asked.

Mr. Qian shook his head: "No, I want to go back to Jiangcheng. I must find out what the Nan family is trying to do with these two books."

Qian Xuesen must make up for these mistakes.

"But it's too dangerous."

Old Qian laughed: "I'm so old, what am I afraid of? Yingying, your master is very gratified to have a disciple like you."

Li Ying felt a lump in her throat and almost cried.

Jing Family Headquarters.

Leng Yan walked into the office, where Jing Chi was organizing documents.

"You're here?"

"Um."

"Thank you so much for cooperating with us to complete the plan this time." Jing Chi was very grateful.

Leng Yan sat down, arms crossed: "I'm the one who should be thanking you. You gave me your trust and let me act with you."

Jing Chi smiled and said, "I won't say anything more sentimental. I'm taking Li Ying back to the capital. I'll have to trouble you with the Jing family's business in Shanghai."

Jing Chi handed the documents to Leng Yan.

Leng Yan was stunned, and it took her a while to look up at Jing Chi.

"You're going to give me the entire Jing family?"

“Yes, I enjoyed my time in the Ye family. Giving it to you from the Jing family is a kind of compensation.” Jing Chi gestured for him to accept it.

Leng Yan hesitated for a moment before taking the document.

"At first, I thought I was capable of handling everything in the Jing family. I wanted to own the Jing family, to be a superior person, and not to live like a dog. Gradually, I discovered that there are actually many beautiful things in life."

"Your ideal is to be a good match between the Jing family's wealth and the Lu family's social standing."

Leng Yan smiled and said, "Okay, I will take over the Jing family from now on, but I will leave five percent of the Jing family's shares to Ye Chen. When he grows up, I will return them to him."

Jing Chi patted Leng Yan on the shoulder: "I thank you on Chenchen's behalf."

Xiang Ming searched for several days but still couldn't find Nan Shiran and Aunt Jing.

Jing Chi knew that Nan Shiran must have taken Aunt Jing away; that woman always had a backup plan.

To truly win her over, one must go to Jiangcheng.

Jing Chi had to return to the capital to report, so he could only postpone it. Besides, he believed that Nan Shiran would not give up and would definitely reappear.

With things in Shanghai basically settled, Li Ying handed over the management of the clinic to Sang Zhi, and Leng Yi began learning from Sang Zhi.

"Are you really going back to the capital?" Sang Zhi asked, reluctant to part with Li Ying, holding her hand tightly.

"Yes, Jing Chi and I finally got to be together, so of course we should support each other."

“Yingying, if Jingchi treats you badly, go back to Shanghai. This is your home.” Second brother is most reluctant to part with Li Ying.

"Don't worry, I'll have my second senior brother and junior brother protecting me when I go back to the capital. I can't stand being wronged."

The whole family laughed.

The next day, Jing Chi and Li Ying took Chenchen to the station, where members of the Li family, Leng Yan, Lu Yufei, and others came to see them off.

After saying goodbye to each other, the three boarded the train and waved farewell to the people on the platform.

On the train, Chenchen tugged at Jingchi's hand: "Daddy, I need to pee."

Jing Chi carried Chenchen to the toilet, while Li Ying looked out the window, feeling inexplicably choked up.

While I was lost in thought, several apples hit me.

"I'm sorry, I'm so sorry."

The other person apologized while picking up the apples.

"It's okay." Li Ying helped hand the apple to the other person.

The man took the apple and said apologetically, "The bag broke just now, I'm so sorry."

"fine."

Li Ying raised her head and met the man's unfathomable eyes. Something was pressing hard against her heart, as if it would crush her heart.

The man adjusted his glasses and smiled brightly: "Looking at me like that, do you recognize me?"

Li Ying quickly looked away, sat down, and felt even more flustered.

As the man left, he gave Li Ying a long, thoughtful look before returning to his seat.

Jing Chi brought Chenchen back.

"Yingying, what's wrong?" Jing Chi noticed that Li Ying's expression was off and quickly asked.

Li Ying shook her head: "It's nothing."
