Chapter 228: This is man-made

~5 min read 974 words

You know, you used to not be like this before.

Yes, I really wasn't like that before, but I also tell you, when you were before, you also weren't like that; you are very kind-hearted, and you would absolutely not do this.

But...

Alright, I don't want to hear your explanation; since it's happened, we should bravely face it. Now, you don't need to think about anything, just heal your body for me, that's enough.

At this moment, Geng Jing Shu had already turned her head.

She could feel tears slowly flowing down at this time.

Xiao Yunzhe didn't say anything else, and the two of them remained silent in the ward for a long, long time.

General Manager Xiao.

At this moment, Xiao Ming was preparing the next step of his plan when suddenly he saw Liu Peipei rush in flustered.

What's wrong?

He furrowed his brow.

I have to admit, Liu Peipei is indeed a good assistant; during the time she's been by my side, she has indeed helped me with many things.

But I always feel that she seems lacking in upbringing; many things she does indeed leave him somewhat dissatisfied.

I discovered, I discovered a big problem.

What? What big problem?

When I went today, I went to that mall, and also investigated the room where I had hidden before.

Oh, what then?

The room inside is completely different from what we imagined.

What's different about it?

Come, take a look at this.

Speaking, Liu Peipei pulled out several on-site photos from her phone and then gestured to him.

The whole room looks empty.

Only near a wall are there a few cabinets placed, and they are also very neatly arranged.

Is this the place where they were detained back then?

That's right, but according to what I know, she described back then being tripped by something?

Exactly, being tripped by something—this doesn't make sense; there's no clutter here, how could she have tripped?

That's right, so the question is, in this place, what exactly tripped him? Was it human interference? Or is he really lying?

No, Jing Shu wouldn't lie; if she said she was tripped, she definitely was; besides, losing the child brings her no benefit.

Yes, so I'm wondering whether there might be a factor of human intervention here.

Human intervention? You mean someone deliberately tripped her?

That's right, that's what I think, but I don't know if my analysis is correct, and I'm not very familiar with the interpersonal dynamics here.

This sentence really reminded Xiao Ming.

He never thought this matter would actually be done by human hands.

If that's the case, then at that time only his three bodyguards were with him, plus her cousin, namely Geng Yu Er.

He remembered that when he was in the hospital, seeing Geng Yu Er, she was completely frightened silly.

Could it be that she wasn't careful?

How did you come up with this matter?

It's not that I thought of it; anyway, I just feel this matter is strange, and how could someone suddenly fall flat on the ground for no reason?

So, must we go back to that room and investigate again?

Yes, I didn't expect it, but the room is completely empty.

Could it be that after the incident, the things inside were moved by someone else?

No, I've carefully observed the scene; if things had been moved, there would definitely be traces left below, but there isn't any at all.

Okay, I understand; I will investigate this matter.

General Manager Xiao, have you now bought all those shares?

How come, you're so interested in this?

Didn't I say that? If these things were in your hands, they'd be meaningless, and just relying on those shares, you couldn't defeat him at all.

This is my affair; it has nothing to do with you; just do your job well.

Liu Peipei could feel that at this moment, Xiao Ming's tone seemed indeed somewhat stern.

She knew this man's terrifying nature, and given the current situation, he absolutely cannot continue speaking.

General Manager Xiao, do you think we should continue investigating this matter?

No need; from today on, don't keep harping on this matter, understood?

Okay, I understand.

Also, you should now focus all your energy on that woman; earlier, wasn't I not getting past you?

General Manager Xiao, I've been investigating this matter, and I've been tailing her for the past two days, but aside from the hospital and home, she hasn't gone anywhere else.

What did you say? The hospital and home?

That's right, she every day brings her carefully prepared food, then comes to the hospital, only to be pushed out time and again.

Is all this done by that Zong Mengni?

After hearing this, Xiao Ming simply felt it was somewhat unbelievable.

A wealthy young lady, and with such a temper, she really can't figure out why he would grovel to do all this.

That's right, it's her doing; when I saw it then, I also felt somewhat surprised, not understanding what this woman really wants.

I understand, but what else besides these?

She's been keeping to herself these days, really, it's hard to get any leads; otherwise I'll try to think of a way to approach her?

Approach? How else could you approach? Could it be that you're going to enter her house?

Hehe, if she's not at home, then on the road I can also intercept her.

No, I'm telling you, you absolutely cannot do this kind of illegal thing—do you understand?

Okay, I understand, General Manager Xiao—I'm just asking you; if you disagree, I won't do anything.

Alright, then keep watching her; if anything happens, give me a call.

General Manager Xiao, you haven't eaten yet, have you?

It's fine, wait a moment; I'll go down to eat something.
