Chapter 509: Rabbits Only Eat the Grass Near Their Burrows
Shi Youxuan sat at the dining table eating her postpartum meal, looking at her phone while she ate.
She looked and looked until it was gone.
Her mother-in-law took the phone away, dissatisfied: "I've told you how many times that you can't look at electronic products during your postpartum confinement? It's bad for your eyes if you look for too long. You've been looking all morning, and you're still looking?"
Shi Youxuan was at a loss for words.
But her attitude was very good.
She smiled and hugged her mother-in-law's arm, acting like a spoiled child: "Give the phone back to me, I promise I'll only look for a little while longer and then I won't look anymore."
The older generation's experience always holds that a woman in postpartum confinement shouldn't do anything; just eating and sleeping every day is enough.
No watching TV, computers, or phones.
No practicing yoga, no body sculpting, and no going out shopping either...
Shi Youxuan felt she was about to get moldy and grow green fuzz.
This was the same way of doing postpartum confinement as raising a pig; only three days had passed, how was she supposed to endure the remaining twenty-plus days?
Wang Yinghao's attitude was firm: "I can't give it back to you, the phone has been confiscated by me."
"Ring-a-ling—"
The phone rang just as it had been "confiscated," quite coincidentally.
Shi Youxuan's face was as bright as a flower, and she just looked at her mother-in-law without saying a word.
The meaning was: Are you going to give it to me or not?
Her mother-in-law gave the phone back to her, feigning seriousness: "Hand it back over after you finish the call."
The call was from Jian Yining.
It had been three days since she was discharged and returned home, and this was the first time Jian Yining had called her.
Mainly because he felt embarrassed.
For these three days, Jian Yining had put all his energy into the investigation, checking the Monitoring Room, investigating people familiar with Shi Youxuan's Hospital Ward, and vetting them one by one.
Heaven does not disappoint those who try.
After three days of tense and orderly investigation, he finally found clues, and as soon as there was a result, he immediately told Shi Youxuan.
"Xuanuan, the bad person who took Zichen away has been found. Don't worry, I definitely won't let her off."
"Who is it?" Shi Youxuan asked.
Jian Yining: "It's the nurse responsible for taking care of Zichen; her boyfriend works in the Monitoring Room... I'm sorry, Xuanxuan, this whole matter is my fault. Don't worry, I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer."
The truth of the matter was about what Shi Youxuan had guessed.
It really was an inside job, and it was done by someone familiar with them.
Shi Youxuan asked: "Why did she want to do this?"
If that nurse was blinded by greed and took a risk to kidnap the child for ransom, Shi Youxuan would feel that was normal.
Then they should just do what needed to be done, without any need to be polite.
What should await them is severe legal punishment and the reality of rotting in prison!
But Jian Yining told her: "She said she liked Zichen and wanted to take him back to raise him herself."
"Heh."
Shi Youxuan said: "This person isn't being honest; she didn't tell the truth. Where is she now? I'm coming over immediately."
Jian Yining: "Hanyu Ge is on his way over, you don't need to come. Just rest at home; we'll come see you once there's a result here."
He was too embarrassed to go over until the matter was truly brought to light.
If it were any other matter, it would be fine for Shi Youxuan not to show her face.
But this matter was directly related to her son; her son had almost been taken away by a bad person, and now they wanted her to act like nothing had happened and "rest" at home?
"Mom, I need to go out for a trip. If Zichen is hungry, please mix some formula for him."
Shi Youxuan left the dining table and returned to her room to change clothes.
Wang Yinghao followed behind her, nagging: "Where are you going? Xuanxuan, you are in postpartum confinement now, don't run outside. At worst, I'll let you look at your phone, is ten minutes at a time okay..."
She stopped and turned around: "Mom, the bad person who took Zichen away has been found. I suspect there is someone behind her pulling the strings. I won't be at ease if I don't go ask her myself."
Wang Yinghao:...
She froze for a second, and after reacting, she also wanted to follow Shi Youxuan to go together.
There were maternity matrons and infant nurses at home, and Zhang Ma had also come over to help.
Besides, there were also Lao Qi and Fang Jie.
They were all people who could be trusted, so it wouldn't matter even if the two of them went out together.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law went out together to the Jian Family Hospital.
The person hadn't been sent to the police station, but was temporarily locked in the director's office.
Just as the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law exited the elevator, they saw a figure flash by.
A woman hurriedly entered another elevator and went down!
On such a hot day, the woman was wearing a beige long trench coat that reached her ankles.
Her head was wrapped in a gauze scarf covering her mouth and nose, and she was wearing a pair of wide sunglasses on her face, covering herself up tightly; it was impossible to tell what she looked like.
However, the woman's movements were a bit familiar, especially the way she walked, which was very similar to one person—Lady Jian!
Shi Youxuan didn't have time to think and hurriedly said to her mother-in-law: "Mom, you go ahead, I'll be right back." After saying that, she ran into the stairwell.
She ran to the next floor, turned into the elevator lobby to wait, and watched the numbers on the elevator stop at the twenty-second floor; she already had an idea in her mind.
The twenty-second floor was the floor where Jian Yixin's Hospital Ward was located.
When Shi Youxuan appeared in Jian Yixin's Hospital Ward, Lady Jian's heart rate immediately became irregular.
"Shi Youxuan? Why are you here?"
"What, am I not welcome?" Shi Youxuan asked in return.
Lady Jian immediately adjusted her facial expression: "Welcome, of course you're welcome, how could I not welcome you? It's just very unfortunate, Yixin isn't here."
"I'm not looking for her, I'm looking for you."
As Shi Youxuan spoke, she entered the Hospital Ward.
"Where did Auntie go just now?" Shi Youxuan asked seemingly casually, but in reality, she was implying something.
"Huh?"
Lady Jian was restless: "I went to the Dean's office—no, wait, you're asking me? I didn't go anywhere, I've been here the whole time waiting for Yixin to come back."
She was talking to Shi Youxuan, but her eyes were darting around.
"Auntie seems distracted, did you do something you feel guilty about?" Shi Youxuan raised an eyebrow.
She did it on purpose.
She intentionally provoked Lady Jian's anger; when people are angry, they easily talk too much, and more talk leads to mistakes.
If this were in the past, Lady Jian would definitely have lost her temper, but today she didn't.
She explained with a very good temper: "No, how could I do something I feel guilty about? Hehe, no such thing."
Lady Jian's eyes kept glancing toward the wardrobe.
She didn't want to, but she just couldn't control it.
Shi Youxuan walked toward the wardrobe... Lady Jian hurriedly ran over and blocked her path: "Hey, what are you doing?"
"Not doing anything, just walking around, do you have an objection?" Shi Youxuan smiled without smiling, and Lady Jian became even more nervous.
The air conditioning was on in the Hospital Ward; although it wasn't very cold, it certainly wasn't to the point where one would sweat.
"No objection."
Lady Jian suddenly changed her expression and issued an order to leave: "You are still in your postpartum confinement, hurry back. If you run around and end up with a chronic illness, you'll blame me later."
The way she said this made it sound as if Shi Youxuan had often made things difficult for her in the past.
"Fine, I'll go out."
Shi Youxuan was unexpectedly "easy to talk to"; she turned and walked out, but she didn't go far.
Instead, she stood guard at the door and had the bodyguards come over to keep watch with her.
She was almost certain—that mysterious woman in the trench coat must be hiding in the wardrobe.
That woman was not Lady Jian, but she must be related to the person who took her child!
At first, Shi Youxuan thought the person in the trench coat was Lady Jian because her walking posture and figure were very similar, but she quickly rejected her initial judgment; that person was taller than Lady Jian.
Although it wasn't her, she must be closely related to her.
Shi Youxuan stood guard outside and wouldn't leave, which made Lady Jian anxious to the point of desperation!
Driven to desperation, she began to throw a tantrum.
"What is wrong with you, woman? Are you trying to kidnap me in broad daylight? Someone help, help!"
