Chapter 442: He's Not a Fool, Is He?
Huo Juncheng rubbed his temples and didn't listen to Gao Hu's words.
That was Mr. Bai's mistress. They had only met once at Qin Chaotian and Chu Xi's wedding... She probably wasn't very familiar with him, so how could she look at him differently?
"Takahiro, I'm back!"
Gao Hu didn't understand what was going on and said dejectedly, "OK."
Lin Yilan checked the time. It was already eleven o'clock in the evening. Just as she was wondering where Huo Juncheng had gone, the roar of a car downstairs began again. She realized it was Huo Juncheng who had returned, and immediately lay down on the bed, pretending to sleep.
The total time is less than two hours. What did you do? So fast?
Huo Juncheng cautiously returned to the villa. Gao Long and Long Cheng were no longer in the living room. He quietly changed his shoes at the entrance, his eyes always glancing upstairs, fearing that Lin Yilan would get up. Mr. Zhang's reputation in the business world was not very good. Apart from being a little reliable in business, he really had no advantages at all.
Lin Yilan had such a fierce quarrel with him just because of Jenny, he was really afraid of the feeling of a cold war with Lin Yilan.
I don’t want to try it again in my life!
Seeing the quietness at home, Huo Juncheng felt relieved. "Gao Hu, go back and tell them to go to bed early. We have things to do tomorrow."
"Yes, sir!"
After Huo Juncheng gave the instructions, he was afraid of disturbing Lin Yilan, so he took a shower downstairs.
Lin Yilan was very useless. She just lay in bed and fell asleep... and when she woke up, it was already the next morning!
Warm sunlight streamed through the cracks, spreading evenly across every corner of the room. She stretched, but before her arms were fully extended, she heard a scream, followed closely by the sound of a body colliding with the carpet.
"Bang!"
Lin Yilan suddenly opened her eyes, and her arm retracted due to Huo Juncheng's roar. She stared at the ground with innocent eyes, lying on the edge of the bed.
Huo Juncheng was rubbing his face with his bony fingers. There was a blue swelling visible to the naked eye on his handsome face.
"Hehe, good morning, good morning." Lin Yilan was accidentally injured by Huo Juncheng early in the morning!
Fortunately, Grandma Huo likes her granddaughter-in-law more than her grandson Huo Juncheng. Otherwise, if this "golden branch and jade leaf" was injured, wouldn't their family skin them alive?
Huo Juncheng snorted twice in succession and glanced at Lin Yilan unhappily: "Lin Yilan, are you planning to murder your husband and elope with your Gao Xianyang?"
Lin Yilan: “…” How can I improve my reputation at this time?
"I didn't mean to do that. Who would have known that you would sleep in my room instead of your own?"
"Don't you know why I came to your room? It's because I'm cold and can't sleep. Only when I lean on you can I feel how comfortable a good night's sleep is." Huo Juncheng stood up with the help of the wall, and glanced at Lin Yilan with an extremely arrogant look: "You hurt me! And I know you are poor, but I won't ask you to pay for the medical expenses."
"Hey, blackmail? A billionaire CEO is trying to blackmail a weak woman like me?"
"Are you a weak woman?" Huo Juncheng was so angry that his internal injuries came out. He coughed twice and talked to Lin Yilan seriously about compensation: "I already said, you don't have to pay. But you left a mark on my handsome face for no reason. Do you think it's okay?"
"Tell me what you mean."
"Can you give me a promise! Forgive me once in the future?" Huo Juncheng stared at Lin Yilan seriously, covering his wound with his hand, looking particularly well-behaved and aggrieved. Lin Yilan really thought she had hurt him...
As if possessed, he responded, "Okay."
"You said it! You can't cheat." Huo Juncheng made an "oh yeah" gesture, took out his phone from his pocket and pressed pause. He played his work for Lin Yilan again: "How is it? I already have evidence, so don't try to deny it!"
"I R!"
Huo Juncheng flirted with her eyes, "Baby, you can R me, please R."
Lin Yilan drew her fist and was about to swing at Huo Juncheng, but luckily Huo Juncheng had good eyesight and ran away first when he saw that the situation was not good. Lin Yilan was speechless, looking at the tightly closed door with a helpless curl of her lips.
…
At noon, the police came to Mr. Jiang's house again to investigate and collect evidence regarding the female corpse. After asking all the questions, they left, not even staying for ten minutes.
Gao Long leaned on the sofa, tilting his head with great curiosity: "Sister Xiu, you usually know so many things, can't you tell us about Mr. Jiang's family? Who is that female corpse?"
Gao Hu also echoed at this time: "Yeah, Sister Xiu, it's boring to stay here, why don't you tell us about it."
"Okay, I'll tell you all about it." Sister Xiu took off her apron and began to tell the family about Mr. Jiang's corpse. "Her name is Xiaomei. I always felt that there was something wrong with the way she looked at Mr. Jiang. Sure enough, when I went to record her statement, I found out she was Mr. Jiang's student. Who is Mr. Jiang? He's a university professor with so much property and companies under his control. Mr. Jiang's wife is also very powerful. How could she allow such a hostile existence in the family? She always finds fault with Xiaomei."
Lin Yilan walked down from the second floor with her pigtails raised. She felt helpless about people like Xiu Jie who gossiped about others for no reason. "Xiu Jie, how do you know that Mrs. Jiang is targeting Xiao Mei in every way? You can't say that casually."
"I'm not lying! Miss Lin, you don't know that Xiaomei always shows us the wounds on her body, saying that Mrs. Jiang punished her with them."
"Is there such a thing?"
Sister Xiu became even more excited: "Isn't it? You said Mrs. Jiang was the same. If she didn't want to see Xiaomei, why not just fire her? Why did she have to abuse her? Xiaomei is also quite pitiful. She cries every time she sees us. Well, it's pitiful. We even tried to persuade her to quit the Jiang family. She said she wanted to repay a favor and this was the only way. Some time ago, on Mr. Jiang's birthday, she asked us what we should give him. I didn't expect her to die at such a young age."
Lin Yilan was not very interested in this kind of gossip. What she was interested in was when the "fragments" of those mysterious organizations could be put together.
Gao Long and Gao Hu were fascinated by what they heard, and they all turned into Detective Conan, one after another starting to deduce: "Is there even any need to think about this? It must have been Mrs. Jiang who killed her! Maybe it was this Xiaomei who showed Mr. Jiang something she shouldn't have shown, and Mrs. Jiang got upset and killed her! She still felt bad about killing her, and she had to throw her into the septic tank! Ah, women, jealousy is so terrible."
"Gao Long, are you a fool?"
