Because of Yi Xiangnuan's accident, the two of them had to spend more time in Jiangnan. The weather on the day they returned to City M was bad. It was gloomy and gloomy. Once they left the airport terminal, they felt a layer of stickiness on their bodies.
The chauffeur came to pick them up early. After sending Yi Xiangnuan to the car, Su Chen closed the door. He had no intention of getting in. She found it strange and could not help but ask,"Aren't you going home?"
"I have to go back to the company first. I've been away for so many days and have a lot of things to do.”
Yi Xiangnuan's hand was pressed against the car window, and his eyes were looking at him pitifully. Su Chen couldn't bear it, so he reached out to rub her furry hair." Go back and rest. I'll be back later. Don't make a fuss. I'll get Mother Qi to take good care of you."”
After sending Yi Xiangnuan off, Su Chen went straight back to the company.
Jing Yan was waiting for him in the company. When she saw him, she handed him a set of documents that were wrapped in yellow kraft paper. She briefly introduced the woman to Su Chen." Mr. Su, we've found her. The woman's name is Liu Yuanmei, and she's from another city. She used to be a clothing salesperson. She was imprisoned two years ago and was only released recently. She's now idling around and making a living by stealing.”
"Sentence?" Su Chen caught a key point. He frowned slightly and opened the stack of documents to read. It was filled with all of Liu Yuanmei's experiences over the years. At the end of the document, there were a few photos of her, or she was hiding from the crowd and leaning against the corner of the street. She had a low-quality cigarette between her fingers and her gaze was waiting for an opportunity in the crowd.
"Why did this woman go to the construction site that day?”
"He should have followed Madam over.”
Su Chen pursed his lips. This was strange. He and Yi Xiangnuan had grown up together. Logically speaking, almost all of his friends knew each other, but he had no impression of this woman. Furthermore, he had a criminal record. When did Yi Xiangnuan provoke such a person?
He tapped the table lightly with his knuckles and ordered calmly," Continue to investigate. I want to know everything she said and did to Madam that day.”
"Yes."
" Also…" Su Chen called out to Jing Yan, his eyes half-closed." Help me investigate something else. Remember, don't let anyone find out."”
Yi Xiangnuan only returned to the company after the weekend ended. The design department was still the same. It was a fact that she was not welcomed. After returning from the business trip, no one else would come to talk to her except Xiao Tan.
It was quiet in the pantry during lunch break. Xiao Tan brought two cups of coffee over and sat down beside Yi Xiangnuan." So, is your foot injury okay now?"”
"It's alright…if you don't believe me, you can see for yourself.”Yi Xiangnuan shook his ankle, trying to reassure her with the truth. She was wearing a pair of flat sandals today. The swelling on her ankle had already subsided and was not as serious as before.
Xiao Tan held his chin." I just think that you're the one who gets hurt the most out of all the people I know.”
"…Then I should be very proud." Yi Xiangnuan looked embarrassed. He touched the tip of his nose guiltily and changed the topic." By the way, I brought you a gift."”
She took out something from her pocket. It was a light blue porcelain whistle as thick as a little finger. It was strung with brown string and could be hung. She had found it in a small shop one day when she was shopping with Su Chen. She handed it over." It's just a small toy. I don't know if you'll like it.”
"I like it. I like everything.”
Little Tan did not even look at it and instinctively took it. The texture of the porcelain was cold to the bone. It was not big, but small and exquisite. What she said was not a lie. A gift was just a token of appreciation. At the very least, she still remembered you outside. This sincerity and friendship were already more precious than anything else.
Yi Xiangnuan was a little surprised, but his heart was filled with the joy of being recognized. She pretended to tsk and sigh." You're not picky. It really makes me feel unaccomplished.”
" Oh..." Little Tan nodded in understanding and acted like he was disgusted." I thought you would bring some silk back from this trip. Sigh, what a pity..."
"Sly girl."
Yi Xiangnuan smiled and tapped her forehead as punishment. Little Tan cried out in grievance,""Didn't you ask for this? I'm just being obedient and cooperating with you…"
"I'm only telling you what price you will pay for your cooperation.”
"You win, you win. Whatever the Lady Boss says is right…"
Yi Xiangnuan furrowed his eyebrows." Alright, you've learned how to make fun of me in the past few days?" You want to try something even more powerful, don't you?”
As she spoke, she was about to place her hand on Xiao Tan's waist. Little Tan reacted quickly. He grabbed Yi Xiangnuan's hand desperately while silently criticizing him. She did not know why she had such a cowardly physiological structure. She was extremely ticklish! She hid and panted while laughing. She begged Yi Xiangnuan for mercy." Alright, alright, let's stop fooling around. Let me tell you something."”
Xiao Tan's serious expression made Yi Xiangnuan curious. She stopped and asked curiously,""What?"
"The construction team that was originally scheduled to take over the company's renovation plan was suddenly dismissed. Although it's not like there were no bosses who were dissatisfied with the temporary change of workers in the past, that was before the contract was signed. This time, the construction had already started, but it was changed at the last minute. No one would be happy about it, but the person in charge agreed so readily. No one knew why.”
Upon hearing this, Yi Xiangnuan was slightly stunned." When did this happen?”
Xiao Tan took a sip of coffee and tilted his head to calculate the time." It's not very long. It's just a few days before you came back.”
Yi Xiangnuan suddenly fell silent. She felt as if something had fallen into her heart, and she felt uneasy. She didn't know if she had anything to do with the replacement of the construction team. Although Su Chen didn't ask her in detail about the accident that day, if he wanted to, he could easily find out anything. She was not afraid of anything else, but she was afraid that he would know about Liu Yuanmei's existence.
She had asked Ji Qianmu to help her prepare a series of evidence, hoping that the entire story would be as Jiang Xinran had fabricated, except for Liu Yuanmei.
"Are you alright?"
Perhaps even Xiao Tan noticed her strange behavior and asked worriedly,"Why do you look so pale? Are you feeling unwell?"
Yi Xiangnuan shook his head reflexively, pushed his chair away, stood up, and walked out." It's a little stuffy here. I'm going out to get some fresh air."”
She left in a hurry as if she was escaping.#
