The next morning, before dawn, Su Ruochu went to the next ward and started chatting with Bai Qingci.
After this experience, the two women's relationship clearly warmed up considerably.
Moreover, with Su Ruochu by her side, Bai Qingci's mood was better than last night.
There's also good news: the bodyguard who was shot woke up around 5 a.m.
After the doctor examined her, he said the most dangerous moment had passed. She only needs to stay in the hospital for close monitoring.
Hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Around 8 a.m., Bai Ruoxue's plane landed in the sea of clouds.
Chen Fan took a picture of Zhang Shun picking someone up at the airport.
While waiting downstairs at the inpatient department, Chen Fan received a report from Feng Pojun.
First, the killer couldn't withstand the torture and confessed on his own.
He was indeed hired by the second branch of the Bai family.
The killer didn't know where the second branch of the Bai family was, because the two sides communicated through an intermediary.
However, this guy kept an eye out; he noticed that the bank branch from which the other party transferred the money to him was a branch in a certain district of Ansei City.
This at least proves that someone on the other side must be hiding in Ansei City.
“Find him.”
"yes."
After hanging up the phone, Zhang Shun picked him up at the hospital entrance.
Seeing Bai Ruoxue get off the bus, Chen Fan went up to her.
Bai Ruoxue was somewhat surprised.
"Why did you come down to pick me up in person?"
Chen Fan smiled and said, "I just came down to take a call."
"Let it go. The celadon is fine."
Bai Ruoxue secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
The two walked into the hall together, and Chen Fan asked, "How are things going in the capital?"
"The Bai family is basically stable internally. Recently, they've been negotiating with those old guys on the board of directors."
Bai Ruoxue's face showed signs of exhaustion, clearly indicating that she had not had an easy time these past few days.
"They're all practically in their coffins. They still want to squeeze more benefits out of themselves. Hmph, it's only because the Bai family needs internal stability right now, otherwise, I would tie them all up and sink them into the sea."
Chen Fan smiled and shook his head.
Bai Ruoxue has absolutely no feelings for the Bai family.
Thinking about it, it makes sense. If it were me, I'm not even sure if I could have done what Bai Ruoxue did.
It concerns the life-and-death hatred between his own relatives and his second uncle. If it were Chen Fan, he might have already started a killing spree.
After entering the elevator, Bai Ruoxue turned her head to look at Chen Fan.
"You just got back from abroad?"
"Um."
"You've been staying at the hospital the whole time? Didn't you go home to rest?"
Chen Fan shook his head.
“My wife refuses to leave; she won’t leave until she sees that your sister is alright.”
Bai Ruoxue sighed.
"You'll marry a good girl."
Chen Fan laughed and said, "I've always been lucky."
Bai Ruoxue glanced at this guy, not wanting to say anything more.
Upon entering the ward, the two sisters naturally had a lot to talk about.
Chen Fan pulled Su Ruochu to say goodbye and then went downstairs to go home.
After returning home, I explained to my parents at length, and finally managed to calm them down.
Su Ruochu hugged the child and kissed him repeatedly. She hadn't thought much of what happened yesterday, but after a night, she still felt lingering fear.
What will happen to the two children if I'm not here?
Su Ruochu didn't want her in-laws to see her emotions, so she comforted them, holding the child, and went upstairs.
"Are you really alright?"
Seeing his daughter-in-law go upstairs, Chen Jianye finally spoke and asked in a low voice.
Chen Fan nodded: "It's alright."
"well……"
Li Jinqiu sighed, "The Bai family girl must be badly injured, right?"
"After the surgery, the doctor said that all I need to do next is recuperate."
"I owe her a favor this time."
Mr. Chen nodded.
"Yes. This is a life-saving favor. We should show our gratitude when he/she is discharged from the hospital."
Li Jinqiu said softly, "This child lives here alone, and there's no one to take care of him."
"Once she's discharged from the hospital, I'll cook her something delicious every day to help her recover."
"Mom and Dad, I'll go upstairs first."
"Hey, let's go upstairs. Try to comfort Ruochu. She must be terrified."
"good."
After Chen Fan went upstairs, he saw Ruochu holding her baby and breastfeeding, so he smiled and said something funny.
"How are you? Is there still breast milk? You won't be scared away and stop, will you?"
Su Ruochu looked up and glared at Chen Fan.
Chen Fan shrugged and stopped joking. Instead, he walked over and sat down next to his wife.
"Let it go. I'll handle this."
Su Ruochu shook her head.
“I’m not responsible for that. I’m only… responsible for your future safety.”
"If they're targeting you..."
Chen Fan quickly interrupted, "I'm fine. I've always had bodyguards protecting me, so nothing will happen."
Su Ruochu still wouldn't let go, and whispered, "No matter where you go, you must be extremely careful, and you must call me every day to let me know you're safe."
Chen Fan nodded.
"Yes, ma'am."
He bent down and kissed Su Ruochu on the face.
Chen Fan stood up. "I'll go cut some fruit for you."
My phone vibrated in my pocket. I took it out and saw it was a text message from an unknown number.
Chen Fan opened the text message with a puzzled look.
"You let your wife escape this time, but next time I'll take your life."
Upon reading the text message, Chen Fan frowned.
"Who is it? Is it about work?"
While breastfeeding her child, Su Ruochu said, "If you have something to do at the company, you can go ahead and take care of it. Don't worry about me."
Chen Fan put away his phone and said with a smile, "It's nothing. It was a text message from a friend. I'll go cut you some fruit."
As I went out and downstairs, I exchanged a few words with Zhou Yun, who was preparing lunch on the first floor.
"Please cut a fruit platter for me and bring it upstairs."
Zhou Yun put down the things she had brought and got up to walk towards the kitchen.
Chen Fan came to the courtyard outside.
Standing outside the door, I lit a cigarette and took out my phone again to glance at the text message.
A few seconds later, Chen Fan tried dialing the number.
After the phone rang a few times, it was hung up.
Clearly, the person on the other end of the phone was unwilling to answer.
So Chen Fan said it again.
The other party hung up.
Chen Fan wasn't angry; instead, he chose to send a text message.
"Who are you?"
There was no reply from the other party.
Chen Fan continued sending text messages.
"No matter who you are, I will find you."
"You'd better pray that you can live your whole life like a rat, hiding in a dark corner forever. Otherwise, you'd better choose your coffin in advance."
After sending the text message, Chen Fan put away his phone and stood at the door, smoking and thinking.
Chen Fan, having smoked half a cigarette, called Bai Ruoxue.
"Hello?"
"Are you in a ward? Is it convenient for you now?"
"Hold on."
Bai Ruoxue came out of the ward and onto the outside corridor.
"What's up?"
Do you have any news about the second branch of the Bai family?
Bai Ruoxue: "What...do you want to do?"
Chen Fan said calmly, "Since the other party has already made a move, and it was against my wife, I can't just stand by and do nothing, can I?"
