The burly, tall man casually tossed the limp woman into the ditch, then turned and strode away, disappearing into the bushes.
As Luo Tong's figure completely disappeared, a tall, slender figure appeared beside Xiao Min's 'corpse' under the cold moonlight.
A faint smile appeared on the man's handsome, slightly wicked face, and his soft tone conveyed a sense of relaxation.
"Luckily, I switched the poison for you beforehand, otherwise you would have been dead for sure."
The man's voice was deep and sexy, exceptionally pleasant to listen to, but in this gloomy and terrifying mass grave, it sounded somewhat terrifying.
...
Jiang Wen learned about Su Yaoyao's recent situation from Shen Jia. Early in the morning, he sneaked out the door, but before he could even step out, his mother called him back.
"Xiaowen, it's the weekend, where are you going?"
Jiang Wen stopped in his tracks, slowly turned around, and gave his mother a fawning smile.
"Mother, didn't you go to yoga this morning?"
Jiang's mother came down the stairs, her arms crossed over her chest. Instead of answering the woman's question, she frowned and scolded her directly.
"Jiang Wen, tell me honestly, do you want to go to that friend of yours, what's her name, Sui Yaoyao?"
Jiang Wen clenched his fists nervously; "Mom, I heard Yaoyao had some trouble, I want to go see her..."
Upon hearing this, Jiang's mother's expression turned even more unpleasant.
"Jiang Wen, didn't I warn you long ago not to associate with that Su guy anymore? Why didn't you listen?"
Jiang Wen was puzzled when he heard this. "Mother, Yao Yao and I are friends. How could I abandon her?"
Jiang's mother shouted angrily, "What do you know? That woman Su Yaoyao was married to Yu Chiyan before, and now she's become Huo Xiting's fiancée. How can such a fickle and shameless woman be worthy of being friends with you, Miss Jiang?"
You should know that Huo Xiting is the adopted son of Yu Chiyan's uncle. This Su Yaoyao is simply indiscriminate in her eating habits, and her manners are far too unsightly!
Hearing his good friend being gossiped about, Jiang Wen felt terrible; "Mother, please don't say that."
Upon hearing this, Jiang's mother glared at him; "Jiang Wen, are you going to disobey me for the sake of an outsider?"
Jiang Wen's face paled. Ever since she broke up with Si Ye against her parents' wishes, her parents' attitude towards her had changed. They even claimed that she was an ingrate, heartless, and had no skills other than disobeying her parents. They said they should have just let her rot in the sea.
Upon hearing his mother's words, Jiang Wen instinctively felt afraid and quickly said something.
"I'm not going, Mother. Please don't be angry!"
Seeing that she obediently listened, Jiang's mother finally showed some satisfaction.
She gave a lukewarm "Mmm" and said, "Okay, let's go upstairs."
Jiang lowered his head, disappointment hidden in his eyes; "Yes."
However, at that moment, the butler suddenly walked in and, seeing the scene in the living room, he wisely lowered his head.
"Young Miss, Madam, Young Master Jun has arrived."
Upon hearing the words "Young Master Jun," Jiang Wen's heart couldn't help but tremble.
Jiang's mother didn't notice her daughter's unusual behavior, and her expression became somewhat puzzled.
"Young Master Jun? Why is he coming to our house so early in the morning?"
When her gaze fell on Jiang Wen, she couldn't help but purse her lips; "I...I don't know either."
She truly didn't know why Jun Xian had come to visit; since the last time, she had only seen Jun Xian a handful of times.
Upon hearing this, the butler looked up and glanced at Jiang Wen.
"Well... Young Master Jun said he has something he needs to ask Miss about."
A dark glint flashed in Jiang's mother's eyes. She glanced at Jiang Wen, whose expression was inscrutable, and her tone was tinged with doubt.
"What could Young Master Jun possibly want with you?"
Jiang Wen felt his heart leap into his throat as she looked at him.
Forcibly suppressing her nervousness, she finally spoke.
"It's probably related to work. Mother, have you forgotten that we recently had a collaboration with the Jun family?"
Jiang's mother suddenly remembered, her face showing a look of sudden realization; "Oh right, that's right, I almost forgot about it."
"Alright, then you should go quickly, don't keep Young Master Jun waiting."
Jiang Wen obediently replied, "Yes."
Jiang's mother ignored Jiang Wen and sat back down on the sofa. She picked up a newspaper and started flipping through it. Suddenly, she paused, as if she had just remembered something.
Why would Junxian ask her to discuss work on the weekend, and why is he here so early?
Thinking of this, Jiang's mother immediately took out her phone and made a call.
"How's your investigation into Miss's background before she joined the Jiang family coming along?"
The person on the other end said something that made Jiang's mother's face turn very ugly; "Continue the investigation."
"yes."
