Shi Lingheng narrowed his eyes dangerously. Is this a declaration of war?
He accepted...
It's absolutely impossible for him to passively wait for others to make a move. Shi Lingheng is not that kind of person. He has always been an alpha wolf that takes the initiative.
Ruan Jiu, who was happily preparing to spend her honeymoon with her wife, had a bad feeling when Shi Lingheng came to her house...
Ruan Jiu, still wanting to stay in bed and trying to avoid people, was kicked off the bed by Fan Miao: "Hurry up and find out what happened to Xiao Fan..."
Ruan Jiu slowly stood up from the bed, supporting her waist. She felt utterly pathetic and, with no will to live, went downstairs, still supporting her waist.
Downstairs, Shi Lingheng was closing his eyes and sorting through the events of the past few days, trying to find a point of connection between everything and recalling some minor details that he had overlooked.
Hearing the noise, I opened my eyes and saw Ruan Jiu coming down, supporting her waist. I raised an eyebrow and said, "You..."
Ruan Jiu and he had known each other for many years. As soon as he heard the first word, she understood what he was thinking. She immediately put her hand down from her waist and said aggressively, "Stop your nonsense. My kidneys are perfectly fine."
Shi Lingheng scoffed and gave a perfunctory "oh".
After sitting down, Ruan Jiu made sure that the tie around his neck was neat and tidy. He felt extremely uncomfortable if his clothes weren't properly straight.
"What happened? I heard something happened?"
Although Fan Miao had chased him down to inquire about Fan Xiaofan's situation, he wasn't in a hurry. He figured nothing serious had happened to Fan Xiaofan. Not to mention the various protective measures in place, the fact that Shi Lingheng was still sitting there safely meant that nothing serious could have happened.
Shi Lingheng shared his analysis with Ruan Jiu. After listening, Ruan Jiu's expression became serious. To be honest, Bai Miaoqin's attack on him was inexplicable, and the reason behind the Bai family's actions was even more inexplicable...
In truth, the Bai family is like grass on a wall; they'll listen to whoever offers the biggest benefits.
They forced Ruan Jiu out of Beidu, and after Ruan Jiu returned safely, the Bai family was in a panic, but it seemed that they had a powerful backer. They were not really panicked to the point of being at a loss.
Logically, after Ruan Jiu and Shi Lingheng returned, the Bai family should have collapsed. However, unexpectedly, although the Bai family is barely holding on, they are still managing to stay in Beidu...
Is it because the Bai family is truly capable of resisting, or is there another reason?
"I will visit the Bai family again and have a good talk with them..."
As far as Ruan Jiu is concerned, the Bai family really does need to be dealt with...
Thinking back to the day he got married, when the Bai family had the audacity to try and ruin his wedding, he chuckled coldly. The weather's getting colder; it's time for the Bai family to finish what they've done and retire.
Shi Lingheng did not stay at Ruan's restaurant for long, as he had other matters to attend to.
And then he suddenly remembered something: "Oh no, I need to go check on Xiao Dong's situation at the school gate..."
If the person behind the scenes really treats them as pawns to be manipulated at will, then Fu Weidong's identity would probably have been suspected long ago. With Hou Er in trouble on Fan Xiaofan's side, Xiaodong's side is not necessarily safe either...
Ruan Jiu's expression also became serious. She took her clothes and wanted to go with him, but Shi Lingheng waved his hand and refused, telling him to go to the Bai family instead.
