At that time, Jiang Wanlan, who was in poor health, stayed with the old lady in Jingyang Tower.
When Fu Jingchen approached, she felt a little guilty and didn't dare to raise her head the whole time.
It wasn't until the old lady had a dispute with Fu Jingchen over her matter that she pretended to be a good person and said gently and considerately, "Old lady, please don't make things difficult for Fourth Master anymore."
"The Fourth Master and the Young Mistress have such a good relationship, how could they tolerate... cough cough, tolerate the existence of me, the third party?"
Jiang Wanlan already had a gentle and innocent face, and after her suicide attempt, her body was weakened, making her look even more frail.
The old lady felt heartbroken when she saw this.
But she was still conflicted.
After all, one of them is her own son.
Because of the debt she owed him when he was a child, the old lady never forced Fu Jingchen to do things he didn't want to do.
"Jingchen, about this matter—"
“Mother, I think we should just drop this matter.” Turning his face away indifferently, Fu Jingchen said coldly, “Don’t even talk about whether I’m willing to marry her or not. Even if I did marry her, do you think Fu Beiyao would let it go so easily?”
Like him, he devoted his whole heart to Mu Yunshu.
How could they tolerate another woman interfering in their lives?
The old lady was speechless, "..."
That's true, last time Lao Shi's attitude was already very firm.
now……
The old lady frowned and didn't say anything more for a moment.
Just then, Fu Jingchen's sinister gaze swept over Jiang Wanlan, noticing that the ligature mark on her neck wasn't particularly deep, just a faint red line.
He pulled his hand, which was casually resting on the wooden chair, away, and his eyes narrowed dangerously. He suddenly asked, "Wanlan, when did you plan to hang yourself?"
That doesn't sound very pleasant.
However, the most embarrassed person present was Jiang Wanlan.
She was a little nervous, and kept her head down, biting her lower lip.
The old lady glanced at her, first looking thoughtful, then turned to her son and said helplessly, "Jingchen, since it has already happened, it's good that no one is hurt. Why are you asking these questions?"
"I just find it strange that if someone really wanted to die, they should have closed the door and died quietly."
"What a coincidence! The moment she hanged herself, the maid arrived."
Judging from these marks, he was probably only hanging there for a short while.
Didn't they say she hanged herself at just six in the morning, and that her maid found out when she brought her food?
If that's the case, does that mean she usually eats breakfast before dawn?
Seeing such clumsy acting, Fu Jingchen couldn't help but let out a cold laugh.
When that chilling laughter rang out, Jiang Wanlan's shoulders trembled.
She was both scared and incredibly ashamed.
In particular, this man actually spoke about her directly in front of the old lady and the maids.
Just then, out of the corner of her eye, she saw the distinguished man opposite her stand up, seemingly about to leave.
Jiang Wanlan gripped the hem of her skirt tightly, filled with resentment.
She suddenly stood up, looking pitiful, "If Fourth Master thinks that Wanlan was behind everything, then Wanlan apologizes to you here."
Turning her head, tears welled in her eyes. "Madam, Wanlan can only repay the kindness I owe you in the next life."
Jiang Wanlan's sudden outburst drew surprised glances from several people in the living room.
The next second, she covered her face and cried, then slammed her head against the hard wall behind her.
