Chapter 2054: An Unthinkable Hypothesis

~7 min read 1,359 words

Xie Wanyi took Jiang Motian's sports backpack, and then discovered that Jiang Motian hadn't even changed her clothes.

He asked, "Are we just leaving like this?"

"Mm."

"Then at least put on a jacket."

Worried that Jiang Motian would catch a cold, Xie Wanyi draped his own jacket over her.

But Jiang Motian was absent-minded.

She had just helped Su Kexuan resolve a problem.

She could help this time.

But what about next time?

As long as Sui Xin wanted to, she could create new problems endlessly.

The key issue that needed to be solved now was: why was Sui Xin targeting Su Kexuan?

Jiang Motian was trying hard to think of an answer.

Yet she suddenly discovered that her hand was being held by someone.

Jiang Motian stopped in her tracks and looked at Xie Wanyi in confusion: "What's wrong?"

"The car is right here, where are you going?"

This...

Only then did Jiang Motian realize that she had been so preoccupied with walking that she had perfectly missed Xie Wanyi's car.

She smiled embarrassedly and then leaned over to sit inside the car.

Xie Wanyi, however, could not smile; he asked, "Why are you so preoccupied? Is it because of that man from just now?"

"It has nothing to do with him."

As her words fell, Jiang Motian let out a long sigh.

Based on this expression, no matter how Xie Wanyi looked at it, it did not seem like it had nothing to do with that man.

Xie Wanyi's brows furrowed involuntarily.

He said, "I can help you teach him a lesson!"

"Huh? Let's not, it's not that serious."

"He's already made you unhappy, how is it not that serious?"

"It's not that I'm unhappy, I just think the way she does things... is too immoral."

Immoral?

A man, being immoral toward a woman...

Xie Wanyi had misunderstood.

He was still filled with killing intent!

This killing intent made Jiang Motian shiver involuntarily.

She rubbed her arms and turned her head to look at Xie Wanyi, only to find that his expression was very ugly.

Jiang Motian felt a bit uneasy and hurriedly asked, "Wanyi, what's wrong with you?"

"You wait here, I'm going to go settle the score with that man!"

As Xie Wanyi said this, he pushed open the car door, intending to get out.

Jiang Motian hurriedly stopped him and asked in confusion, "Wait a second! What does this have to do with a man?!"

"Weren't you just complaining about that man in the gym?"

Hm?

Complaining about a man?

She was clearly talking about...

Jiang Motian thought for a moment before she figured out what Xie Wanyi meant.

Instantly, Jiang Motian felt helpless.

She had to explain: "I was complaining about Sui Xin; that man was just a passerby, oh no, he was just an unlucky guy being used by Sui Xin!"

Xie Wanyi was confused.

He felt he needed to calm down and re-sort through the content of their conversation.

While he was sorting it out, Jiang Motian helped summarize from the side: "Sui Xin was also at the gym just now, and I saw with my own eyes that she used a tactic of borrowing a knife to kill!"

"So that man was the knife?"

Jiang Motian nodded immediately.

"Then who did Sui Xin want to kill?"

"Su Kexuan!"

Now, Xie Wanyi understood everything.

He also knew that he had made a blunder.

It was truly... a bit awkward.

But fortunately, Xie Wanyi used one piece of information to cover up his embarrassment: "I have the latest news about Sui Xin, want to hear it?"

"Of course, hurry, hurry, tell me!"

Xie Wanyi knew Jiang Motian would be interested.

But he didn't say it directly, instead asking in return: "Has Sui Xin ever mentioned to you how she and Jiang Mobai met?"

They had actually talked about this topic.

Jiang Motian recalled it slightly and replied: "Sui Xin was in a rush to get to a performance at the time, and it was Mobai who gave her a ride."

"Actually, the two of them met even earlier than that."

"Earlier?"

"Yes, there was a time Sui Xin fell into the water, and Jiang Mobai saved her."

"This... isn't this the classic 'hero saves the beauty'? Is that why Sui Xin secretly gave her heart to him and insisted on having Mobai?"

Jiang Motian felt she had found the truth.

But soon, she muttered suspiciously, "Why haven't I heard Sui Xin mention this? Mobai never said anything about it either."

"What's even more magical is that it took some time before Sui Xin created an opportunity to have a 'chance encounter' with Jiang Mobai. Before that, she was very close with another man."

"Oh, I understand now! Sui Xin couldn't be with that man for some reason, so she started setting her sights on Mobai!"

Jiang Motian felt this analysis was very logical; she had found the truth again.

But then again...

This analysis couldn't explain why Sui Xin hadn't said a single word about the hero-saves-the-beauty incident.

With her methods, if she had seized upon that point, she certainly could have made quite a scene...

Jiang Motian fell into deep thought once more.

Xie Wanyi raised his hand to stroke her hair and said, "Don't be anxious, the answer will surface very soon."

"What do you mean?"

"The man Sui Xin was having an ambiguous relationship with is a young conductor, and he will be coming to this city for a performance next week."

The news Xie Wanyi brought was one surprise after another.

Jiang Motian reacted for a moment before she could accept the new information.

But this time, she didn't jump to a firm conclusion; instead, she asked Xie Wanyi, "Could the appearance of this man be a coincidence?"

"No, he is coming specifically to find Sui Xin."

"This... could it be a love triangle? No, that's not right, it should be two-timing!"

Jiang Motian felt her brain was a bit of a mess.

But she didn't give up and still tried to sort out the relationships between the characters.

Seeing her brows knit together, Xie Wanyi smiled and said, "You should stop analyzing."

"If I don't analyze, how can I find a way to intervene? And how will I know why Sui Xin is targeting Su Kexuan?"

Hmm... actually, come to think of it, Sui Xin's actions toward Su Kexuan look a lot like she's targeting a romantic rival.

But how could Su Kexuan be Sui Xin's romantic rival? She doesn't even like Jiang Mobai!

However... what if we look at things from the other side?

Could it be that Jiang Mobai likes Su Kexuan?

Jiang Mobai...

Likes Su Kexuan?!

Jiang Motian suddenly gave a start.

She felt her hypothesis was too bizarre!

And who is Jiang Mobai?

A total playboy!

Would he silently like someone around him?

A silent liking is called a secret crush.

How could someone with Jiang Mobai's personality possibly have a secret crush!?

That would only happen when pigs can fly!

The expression on Jiang Motian's face was colorful.

Xie Wanyi was even curious about what exactly was going on in her head.

Because of his curiosity, he asked, "What are you thinking about?"

"I'm thinking about whether pigs can climb trees!"

"Huh?"

Jiang Motian took a deep breath, then looked at Xie Wanyi with a look of bad luck: "I should have listened to you and not analyzed things randomly!"

Xie Wanyi suppressed a laugh: "It's not too late to listen now. Just suppress your curiosity for the time being, and the truth will surface soon."

Soon...

How long is that?

I'm afraid even if she asked Xie Wanyi, he couldn't give an accurate answer.

However, Jiang Motian did have a way to find clues right now!

Her eyes brightened as she said to Xie Wanyi, "I can go ask Sui Xin!"

"This..."

"Didn't we say before that I would wait until you had news before I took action? Now, it's my turn to step up!"

Jiang Baobao looked at the screen, her heart sinking to the bottom of a valley.
