Chapter 81 Zhang Ma Ran Away
Jiang Ruyun shook her head and calmly analyzed, "There are people guarding the door. They won't let strangers in casually. Besides, there are so many servants walking around the house. It's impossible for someone to sneak in..."
Li Yanjing's eyes were wet. "So it was the servant at home... who killed Mom?"
"It should be."
Jiang Ruyun suffered such a blow and was physically and mentally exhausted, but in order to catch the murderer who killed her daughter, she had to cheer up.
She took a deep breath, stood up from the bed, turned around and wanted to ask Aunt Zhang to gather all the servants in the house, but she saw Gu Yanran standing not far away. She simply handed the matter over to her and said, "Yanran, go downstairs and ask Aunt Zhang to gather all the servants in the house today."
Gu Yanran came back to her senses, her eyes flickered, she responded, turned around and trotted out of the room.
Jiang Ruyun retracted her gaze and turned to look at Li Zhi lying on the bed. She swayed slightly and said to Li Yanjing, "I'll call to let your grandfather know they're coming back."
Li Yanjing glanced at Gu Yanran's departing figure and nodded, "Okay."
......
downstairs.
Gu Yanran came to the room where Zhang Ma lived and sent a message to Zhang Ma on her mobile phone, asking her to come over to find her.
After receiving the news, Aunt Zhang immediately put down her work and rushed over, "Miss."
Gu Yanran looked around and saw that there was no one there, so she immediately invited her into the room and then locked the door.
She looked at Aunt Zhang solemnly and whispered, "The person is really dead. I've already suspected the servants. Now I want you to gather all the servants."
Gu Yanran paused, took Zhang Ma's hands, and continued, "Zhang Ma, you haven't forgotten what we talked about before, right? You said you would help me."
Zhang Ma naturally knew she was talking about asking her to take the blame, so she nodded and said, "Miss, don't worry, I will definitely help you."
Gu Yanran breathed a sigh of relief. "Then you should leave the Gu family now. If you run away now, they will definitely regard you as the murderer, and this matter will be over."
Aunt Zhang nodded, looking at her with reluctance in her eyes, "I understand."
Gu Yanran noticed the way she looked at her and felt a little strange, but she didn't think much about it. She let go of her hand and pushed her, "Hurry up and run."
Aunt Zhang's body swayed when she was pushed, but she didn't move her feet. "Miss, can I hug you?"
Gu Yanran frowned. Although she didn't know why she made this strange request, she didn't refuse because she still needed her help.
She suppressed her disdain, reached out and casually hugged Zhang Ma before letting her go. Then she urged, "Okay, don't delay any longer."
"Okay." Aunt Zhang looked at her deeply, then turned around, opened the door and walked out.
Gu Yanran watched her leaving, and waited until she disappeared from her sight before she slowly walked out of the room.
She first pretended to find other servants and asked where Aunt Zhang was, and then returned upstairs.
Gu Yanran walked into Li Zhi's room and looked at Jiang Ruyun who was sitting on the bed and caressing Li Zhi's face. She said, "Mom, I didn't find Aunt Zhang downstairs..."
Jiang Ruyun came back to her senses and turned to look at her, "Didn't find it?"
Gu Yanran nodded. "Yes, I asked other people, but they didn't see her either. I don't know where she went."
She paused, her eyes glaring, and then she continued, "Mom, you said Aunt Zhang suddenly disappeared at this time. Could it be that she killed my sister, so she ran away out of guilt?"
Jiang Ruyun stood up and said, "Yanran, go down and ask someone to look for him. And by the way, ask someone to check the security cameras at the entrance."
"Okay, I'll go now." Gu Yanran replied.
Li Yanjing looked at her back as she turned around, his eyes moving slightly.
Could it be that Aunt Zhang wants to take all the blame for Gu Yanran so that Gu Yanran can continue to live a carefree life in the Gu family?
So the mother and daughter have recognized each other?
Li Yanjing temporarily suppressed his doubts and said to Jiang Ruyun, "Grandma, why don't you go down and take a look? I'll stay here to watch over Mom."
Jiang Ruyun also had the same idea, "Okay."
After she left, Li Yanjing closed and locked the door, returned to the bed, and said to the "dead" Li Zhi on the bed: "Everyone is gone."
Before he finished speaking, Li Zhi raised his eyelids and slowly sat up from the bed.
"Has Aunt Zhang already recognized Gu Yanran?" Li Yanjing paused and continued, "Now that Aunt Zhang has disappeared, did she and Gu Yanran make a plan to make everyone think she harmed you, so that Gu Yanran would be safe?"
Li Zhi rubbed her chin with her slender fingers. "I don't know if they recognized each other, but Aunt Zhang is definitely going to take responsibility for everything for Gu Yanran and is ready to go to jail for her."
Li Yanjing frowned, "What should we do then? Is Gu Yanran okay?"
"How is that possible? That would definitely rip her skin off." Li Zhi waved at him, motioning him to lean closer, and said slowly, "You'll do as I say later..."
…
Downstairs living room.
Jiang Ruyun looked at the servants standing in a row with a serious expression, "Where's Aunt Zhang? Didn't you see any of them?"
"No, I was busy preparing dinner in the kitchen and didn't see Aunt Zhang."
"I haven't seen her at the moment. She told me to water the flowers an hour ago."
"When I passed by the living room just now, I saw Aunt Zhang go out."
Jiang Ruyun's eyes darkened. She turned to look at Gu Yanran beside her and said, "Yanran, have you checked the surveillance footage of people entering and leaving the door?"
"Found it." Gu Yanran swiped the screen of her phone, dragging the progress bar of the retrieved surveillance footage forward, and then handed the phone to her. "Mom, I just checked the latest surveillance footage from the past half hour. Aunt Zhang trotted out of the house five minutes ago. She seemed a little hurried. Anyway, something is wrong."
Jiang Ruyun took the phone and quickly looked at the surveillance footage. She could already conclude that Zhang Ma was involved in this incident.
She returned the phone to Gu Yanran, took out her own phone, tapped the screen quickly with her fingers, and sent a message to Gu Yuntian, asking him to send someone to catch the escaped Zhang Ma.
After doing all this, Jiang Ruyun put away her phone, raised her eyes and looked at Gu Yanran again, with sadness in her eyes, and said weakly: "Yanran, you wait here for your father and others to come back, I'll go upstairs... and accompany Zhizhi..."
Seeing this, Gu Yanran's eyes moved slightly, knowing that Jiang Ruyun was vulnerable and needed comfort and companionship.
This is a very good opportunity for her to take advantage of the situation and narrow the distance between them and their mother-daughter relationship.
