Jiang Shiyue returned to the hotel alone in a daze.
Yangyang stayed at Mengmeng's house.
She lay on the bed, tears streaming down her eyes and over her ears, soaking the pillowcase.
She cried silently like this during the seven days she was imprisoned.
In fact, Jiang Shiyue didn't think much about it at the beginning. With the attitude of "a person with a clear conscience has nothing to fear", she waited for justice to be done to her.
Until one day, when she was being taken to the interrogation room, she heard a discussion about her coming from behind a door.
"Honestly, I personally don't think it was Sister Jiang Shiyue. She hasn't been to our team since she married Captain Chen, so how could she have leaked the information?"
"Yes! We've been suspecting intelligence leaks for a while now. We've also had our suspects for a long time. It's all because Jiang Shiyue is so capable and so unlucky. She's so talented at such a young age, able to get into university and make money. Doesn't this give people reason to suspect the source of her huge fortune?"
"It's not just because she's rich. The most important thing is that Captain Chen came to say hello before he left on the mission, and told us to keep a close eye on Jiang Shiyue's wife while he's away. If there's an emergency, arrest Jiang Shiyue first, regardless of whether there's evidence or not."
"Tell me, how disheartened would Jiang Shiyue be if she knew Captain Chen was so suspicious of her?"
"You can't say that. Captain Chen is also doing his job. We can all see that Captain Chen really loves Jiang Shiyue's wife."
"Yes, love is true love, and defense is also true defense."
"Ah! Who said it wasn't? Otherwise, we wouldn't be spending the New Year here."
"The most outrageous thing is that the trial results have been released next door, but this one is still locked up."
“…”
Jiang Shiyue looked up at the door and saw the words "Smoking Room" written on it.
The female comrade in charge of escorting Jiang Shiyue kicked the door open and shouted angrily, "How come you two grown men are talking like women? I think you're not suitable to work in this place. You should find another place!"
The people inside fell silent instantly.
Especially when he saw Jiang Shiyue, the expression on his face was so awkward that he wished he could die on the spot.
Jiang Shiyue smiled at them good-naturedly and thanked them softly: "Thank you!"
The two people chatting inside looked embarrassed and confused, and they didn't seem to understand why Jiang Shiyue thanked them.
The female comrade who was escorting Jiang Shiyue suddenly looked at Jiang Shiyue. Seeing that she had an indifferent expression and seemed to be hesitant to speak, she finally glared at the two colleagues, sighed, and led Jiang Shiyue away.
That was the last time Jiang Shiyue was tried.
Then a day later, she was released.
On that last day, Jiang Shiyue thought a lot.
When he was angry, he wanted to tear Chen Shanhe apart.
When she calmed down, she found all kinds of excuses and reasons for him.
Like how he had no choice.
For example, his profession meant putting his country before his family. As someone who slept with him, it was only natural that he would be wary of her because of all the abnormalities she had.
For example, he must be in great pain too, otherwise he wouldn't have rushed back to accompany her on New Year's Eve, hugging her for fear that she would be cold.
For example, what he did for her in Huacheng.
But soon, those strong negative emotions and doubts will swallow up these reasons.
If he really loved her, why didn't he believe her? No matter how abnormal she was, she hadn't done anything to let him down or to let the country down.
If he really loved her, why would he report to his work ahead of time to try to control her right away? And why didn't he take her out for so long?
Even if she couldn't prove that she was herself, she could at least prove that she hadn't tampered with the information.
For one day and two nights, Jiang Shiyue was tormented by love and not love.
Finally, everything calmed down.
She was not originally from this era, nor was she someone who was content with a family.
In her plan, her business empire is to leave a name for herself in the world.
After the reform and opening up, the economy grew wildly, and at the same time, some industries and methods that could not be seen in the light also grew wildly.
Who knows if she will affect his career again?!
They are not walking the same path.
Jiang Shiyue thought that she couldn't make sacrifices, couldn't accept all this without regrets. She could only see that he was devoted to the country, not hate him, and part ways with him.
In fact, when she was just released from prison, she had some hesitation the moment she saw Chen Shanhe.
She even had the foolish thought that as long as he explained she would still be willing to give him another chance.
However, Chen Shanhe didn't say a word.
In the past, Jiang Shiyue liked to savor his love in his silence the most. For the first time, she hated his silence so much.
It also strengthened my determination to leave.
But what Li Chuntian and Mengmeng's mother said today made her feel a little confused again.
Jiang Shiyue tossed and turned in bed.
I didn't fall asleep until dawn.
I didn't sleep well.
In the dream, I was sometimes standing on the edge of a cliff, and sometimes walking on a tightrope.
Finally I was awakened by the sound of firecrackers.
It’s only nine in the morning.
The people of Yincheng pay attention to going out on the 3rd, 6th and 9th days of the lunar month.
The ninth day of the first lunar month is an auspicious day for opening a business, going on a business trip or going out.
Jiang Shiyue washed her face with cold water.
The woman in the mirror looked like a rose hit by frost.
She found some cosmetics and put on some light makeup.
She is leaving tonight.
***
Jiang Shiyue went downstairs and had something to eat.
On the ninth day of the Lunar New Year, there were finally more pedestrians on the streets and more varieties of dishes in restaurants.
Unfortunately, Jiang Shiyue had no appetite and only ordered a bowl of porridge.
She was the only customer in the store.
The idle waiters gathered together and gossiped in low voices.
"Who do you think this lesbian is? Doesn't she need to go home for the New Year?"
"She came here yesterday with her child, so she must have a family, right? And I saw she always drove a car, so she must be rich!"
"That's even more strange. If you have money and a family, why would you stay in a hotel and eat in a restaurant instead of going back home?"
“…”
Jiang Shiyue sniffed as he listened. The porridge seemed a bit bitter!
The hall was very quiet.
When the waiters heard the noise coming from Jiang Shiyue, they all shut up and stopped talking.
Jiang Shiyue completely lost her appetite, paid the bill and left the hotel, then drove to the sanatorium to see Chen Dingguo and Wu Xiu'e.
I didn’t expect Chen Shanhe to be there too.
Chen Shanhe reached out to take the thing from Jiang Shiyue's hand, but Jiang Shiyue calmly dodged and walked into the room.
The room was not big, and both Chen Dingguo and Wu Xiu'e saw their actions and looked at each other.
Wu Xiu'e frowned.
Chen Dingguo shook his head at Wu Xiu'e, as if he saw nothing, and greeted Jiang Shiyue cheerfully: "Girl, you're here!"
The tone was so natural, as if it was normal for Jiang Shiyue, as a daughter-in-law, to come and pay New Year's greetings on the ninth day of the first lunar month.
Jiang Shiyue breathed a sigh of relief, the corners of her mouth curled up, "Yes! I came to see you two before leaving."
"Go? Where to?" Wu Xiu'e asked in surprise.
Chen Dingguo stopped Wu Xiu'e with his eyes and scolded her, "You are really getting old and confused! Our Yueyue is a college student. Can't she go back to college?"
Wu Xiu'e finally breathed a sigh of relief and patted her forehead. "Look at my brain, I thought..."
She closed her mouth halfway through her words and subconsciously glanced at Chen Shanhe.
