Chapter 159 I'll believe whatever you say.
Xu Chi walked straight towards her, took her hand, and frowned slightly.
His voice was somewhat low and somber. "Does it still hurt?"
A slightly cool hand grasped her wrist, the pressure not very strong, but Tu Yao inexplicably felt a tight constraint.
She glanced tentatively at the young man before her. He still appeared gentle and composed, but there was a hint of anxiety in his eyes.
...This is a normal emotion.
Tu Yao suppressed her discomfort and shook her head: "It doesn't hurt, it's just a minor injury, my second brother treated it for me."
Why are you here?
Xu Chi looked at her with deep eyes... he was still too perceptive.
So he loosened his grip and casually uttered two words: "Just passing by."
Tu Yao breathed a sigh of relief and moved her wrist.
Nodding, "...Oh, just passing by."
Across from them, Madam Jiang's smile widened as she watched this.
Watching the power struggles between young people is much more interesting than watching the power struggles within the business world.
...
Wait, just passing by the hospital?
Suddenly realizing something, Tu Yao's expression turned anxious. "Are you feeling unwell? Are you sick? Did the doctor prescribe any medicine for you? Is it serious?"
A smile returned to Xu Chi's eyes as he gently stroked her palm: "I'm not feeling unwell, I just think what you said last time made a lot of sense, that we should take care of our health, so I came for my monthly check-up."
After saying that, the girl visibly breathed a sigh of relief, "It's good that you're alright."
"Are you done?"
"It's done."
Tu Yao hesitated for a moment, then looked up at him seriously and said, "Then you've come at the right time. I have something to tell you."
Xu Chi raised an eyebrow slightly, "Only telling me?"
The girl replied matter-of-factly, "Yes, I'm only telling you, let's go."
The three brothers standing to the side: ?
The two of them had been chatting for a long time without any regard for others, and now they were preparing to leave as if no one else was around.
Tu Chaoxi finally realized something was wrong, so she quickly went over and closed the door behind her, stopping the two of them!
"etc!"
Tu Chaoxi glanced warily at the young man behind the girl.
Unlike when he first entered, his expression was indifferent, but now a clear smile was visible in the corners of his eyes and brows.
He said irritably, "Tu Xiaomao, are you two pretending we don't exist?"
"Is there anything we can't hear? Why go out and tell everyone?! And only tell him?!"
Tu Yao blinked, glancing unconsciously at the old lady on the bed.
"say!"
Tu Yao scratched her head, looking troubled, and hesitated for a while.
"...Anyway, only Koike can hear it now!"
After saying that, she grabbed the young man's hand and slipped out of the ward.
Tu Chaoxi: ? ? ?
The entrance was empty, and Tu Chaoxi looked on in disbelief.
"No, she just ran away?! Right in front of me, she ran away with her people?!"
Nan Ke said helplessly, "Brother, they are good friends, and there must be secrets between friends."
"You shouldn't get involved."
Tu Chaoxi exploded on the spot!
"What secret is it that can only be told to friends and not to me?!"
"What secrets do you have to share between two people? Will talking about them here destroy the Earth or cause the universe to explode?!"
"What secret is it...?"
Halfway through frying, Tu Chaoxi seemed to realize something and suddenly turned her head.
"...What did you just say? Best friends?"
Nan Ke, puzzled, replied, "Yes, friend."
As soon as he finished speaking, Nan Ke watched helplessly as the anger on his brother's face was gradually replaced by vigilance.
Nan Ke: ?
Tu Chaoxi murmured... Something's not right...
He slowly shook his head. Something was wrong!
Something's definitely not right!
He remembered!
Tu Chaoxi quickened her pace and walked up to Nan Ke. "He delivered that document to me right after the incident!"
He's a celebrity, so he knows how time-consuming, laborious, and expensive information gathering can be.
But this ridiculously detailed investigation data was delivered to him free of charge and in a timely manner!
Tu Chaoxi took a deep breath, grabbed his two younger brothers' arms, and tried to remain calm: "...Do you think ordinary friends would go to this extent?!"
After he finished speaking, Nan Ke and Lin Yue were both stunned.
Tu Chaoxi continued analyzing: "Also, whenever Tu Xiaomao gets into trouble, he's like a dog with a nose, he can get there immediately!"
"I'm asking you, which of our friends could do this?!"
"Also, did you guys see that just now...?"
Tu Chaoxi closed her eyes, her voice trembling: "...He grabbed Tu Xiaomao's hand as soon as he arrived!"
Upon hearing this, Madam Jiang couldn't help but turn around and laugh.
...
On the other side, Tu Yao led the person all the way to the corridor outside the hospital.
This place has become her base for plotting with others.
From planning to compete with Lin Qiuping for paintings, to seizing the company, and now...
Tu Yao looked serious and turned to get straight to the point: "Xiao Chi, do you know about the shipwreck incident that happened to Madam Jiang's daughter's family more than ten years ago?"
Xu Chi's eyes flickered slightly, and he nodded: "I know."
Even though Yanjing and Hong Kong are two different business districts with little interaction, the shipwreck that year shocked the world.
Even after he came of age, people would still occasionally bring it up at banquets and gatherings.
At that time, the old lady's daughter, Fengchun, was preparing to hold a full-moon celebration for her newborn daughter at sea.
On the eve of the full moon celebration, Jiang Fengchun's family boarded the ship to make final arrangements, but unfortunately they hit a reef and were caught in a sudden downpour.
In less than half an hour, the entire cruise ship sank to the bottom of the sea, and the family of six, along with Jiang Fengchun's personal maid at the time, perished at sea.
Why are you suddenly asking this?
Tu Yao pursed her lips. "I feel something's off about Jiang Peng. He's hiding something."
After hesitating for a moment, she continued, "I think this secret might be related to the shipwreck incident back then."
The smile in Xu Chi's eyes completely disappeared, and he led the person to a stone bench to the side.
"Sit down and speak slowly."
Tu Yao was taken aback: "Xiao Chi, don't you think I'm talking nonsense?"
The young man patted her on the head: "Why would I think you're talking nonsense?"
"So you brought me out just now because you were afraid of upsetting Madam Jiang?"
Tu Yao nodded.
More than a decade has passed, and she understands that Madam Jiang has never let go.
Xu Chi's eyes deepened slightly: "But you should know that Madam Jiang is known for her ruthless and tough methods. She must have investigated back then and confirmed that it was an accident."
Tu Yao pursed her lips. "I understand, Xiao Chi, but..."
Tu Yao paused for a moment, then said, "What if some things can't be explained by common sense?"
"I……"
Tu Yao suddenly panicked, her eyes filled with confusion. She was hiding a secret, and she could easily make strange associations with it.
But what about Xiaochi... Tu Yao subconsciously looked at the young man in front of her.
Will he believe it...?
The next second, her icy hand was firmly grasped.
Tu Yao stared at him blankly.
His eyes held the young man's gentle and unreserved gaze.
"...No rush, speak slowly, I will believe whatever you say."
