From Rejected Fake Heiress to Desired True Love-Chapter 319: Jumping into the River to Commit Suicide
Chapter 319: Chapter 319: Jumping into the River to Commit Suicide
Miss Nan Qiao hung up the phone, her gaze landing on Li Yehan as she said, "Fine, I’ll act as your secretary today and go to work with you."
However, Li Yehan felt that the phone call Miss Nan Qiao had received was out of the ordinary.
She had just refused, hadn’t she agreed a bit too quickly?
Li Yehan was just about to speak when his phone rang at that moment.
After picking up the call and hanging up, Li Yehan shared something with Miss Nan Qiao, "Qiaoqiao, Zhou Jingya stabbed Zhou Hongqi and then jumped into the river to commit suicide."
Miss Nan Qiao frowned slightly, somewhat surprised; she had not expected Zhou Jingya to choose to commit suicide by jumping into a river.
"A passerby called it in. Zhou Hongqi was sent to the hospital and his life was saved. As for Zhou Jingya, I’ve sent people to look for her. We must see the person if alive, the body if dead. What if Zhou Jingya is trying to use this opportunity to escape?"
Li Yehan was always very meticulous in handling things.
Miss Nan Qiao said nothing and went to work with Li Yehan after finishing their meal.
...
Li Yehan taking Miss Nan Qiao to the company went unnoticed, as they took a private elevator to his office.
Secretary Zhao walked in holding a bag of stuff, respectfully saying, "Miss Nan Qiao, these are the snacks Mr. Li instructed me to buy for you. Please see if they are satisfactory. Should you have any other preferences, just instruct me, and I’ll have someone purchase them immediately."
Miss Nan Qiao: "..."
With so many snacks, there’s no need for dinner today.
Miss Nan Qiao declined: "Secretary Zhao, there’s no need to buy more, these snacks are plenty."
"Alright, Miss Nan Qiao, please don’t hesitate to let me know if you need anything else," Secretary Zhao said as he left.
Li Yehan took off his suit jacket to start on a day’s work.
"Qiaoqiao, there’s a computer on the desk that you can use. I just had someone buy that computer, so whenever you come looking for me, you can use that one to work on," Li Yehan said.
Only then did Miss Nan Qiao notice that there was indeed a pink laptop on the desk.
It has to be said that Li Yehan was really thoughtful.
"Thank you, I just so happen to have some matters to deal with," Miss Nan Qiao walked over to sit down and turned on the computer.
The two were busy with their own work and did not disturb each other as they worked together.
Miss Nan Qiao logged into a chat application and received a message from Hou Ze: "Boss, I’ve completed all the tasks you assigned."
Miss Nan Qiao replied with a sticker praising him.
Miss Nan Qiao saw a message from Principal Qi asking which class she wanted to enroll in, to which she replied indifferently.
Just then, from Li Yehan’s desk phone, came Secretary Zhao’s voice: "Mr. Li, Li Tianhong is here, insisting on seeing you."
Li Yehan’s brows furrowed tightly: "Do not let him in."
"Mr. Li, he said that if you don’t see him, he will cause a scene at the company."
Li Yehan didn’t even need to think to know what Li Tianhong was here for.
After all, in Li Tianhong’s heart, it’s Li Ye who is his son.
Li Yehan stood up: "Qiaoqiao, I need to step out for a moment."
Miss Nan Qiao nodded: "Be careful with your wounds."
Li Yehan smiled, nodded, and walked out.
Seeing Li Yehan leave, Miss Nan Qiao sent a message to Hou Ze: "Find out what exactly happened between Li Tianhong and Li Yehan’s mother."
Hou Ze also sent a message: Boss, I’ve found the whereabouts of another medical staff member, I’m leaving now!
Miss Nan Qiao: "Tell me the address, I’ll go too."
Hou Ze sent the address, and Nan Qiao closed her laptop and walked out.
As she walked, she sent a message to Li Yehan, saying she had to go out for a bit.
...
Nan Qiao drove Li Yehan’s car to meet with Hou Ze.
Hou Ze was riding a motorbike, and when he saw Nan Qiao coming, he gave up the rider’s seat for her.
In front of Nan Qiao, Houzi knew he was only fit to sit in a car; his riding skills were no match for Nan Qiao’s. freewebnσvel.cøm
Nan Qiao drove at a very high speed, scaring Hou Ze so much he could only grab onto the motorbike seat... He didn’t dare to hold onto Nan Qiao.
"Boss, you’re riding so fast, you have to be careful," he said.
Nan Qiao didn’t respond; she had to speed up. What if she was too late and, like before, couldn’t find any clues?
After Nan Qiao’s mad dash on the motorbike, they finally arrived at a small town nearby.
"Boss, it’s the house right ahead."
Nan Qiao parked the car at another intersection and ran ahead with Hou Ze.
Hou Ze didn’t dare to ask; he did whatever Nan Qiao said.
Nan Qiao looked around, climbed over the wall to get in, followed by Hou Ze.
A woman in her fifties was sitting inside the house. When she saw Nan Qiao and Hou Ze standing in the yard, she was so frightened she was about to scream, but Nan Qiao spoke, "Eighteen years ago at the hospital, you switched babies, didn’t you!"
The woman’s expression froze, her eyes dodged, and Nan Qiao quickly walked towards her, grabbing her and taking her to a corner of the room.
If someone were to come in, they would only head inside the house and not notice the three people hidden beneath the tree in the corner.
Nan Qiao demanded, "You’ve been wrong for eighteen years, do you still want to continue being wrong? I am one of those three children. Why did you switch the babies back then? Who told you to do it?"
The woman hesitated to speak as if she had an unspeakable secret.
Nan Qiao continued, "Are you sure you won’t talk? I’ve found you; aren’t you afraid those people will find you and kill you to silence you? I can give you some money to leave this place."
Seeing this, the woman slowly began to speak, "I knew I’d face this day for doing something wrong. I was short of money at the time and made a mistake. Eighteen years ago, a woman came to find the head nurse, and I happened to see her. That woman wore a mask and dressed very stylishly. She wanted us to switch one of the children to the Bai Family and give the Bai Family’s child to the janitor. The rest, you all know."
Nan Qiao asked, "What features did that woman have? What color dress, shoes, or accessories was she wearing on that day?"
The woman confessed honestly, "She wore a black dress, black leather shoes, and had a gray watch on her wrist. Behind her ear, she had a mole."
Beyond that, the woman knew nothing more.
After asking her questions, Nan Qiao left with Hou Ze and took the woman away from that place.
The woman lived alone here; her children had all gone to work outside.
Nan Qiao said to Hou Ze, "First, ensure her safety, and pay attention to her behavior and actions."
Hou Ze nodded, understanding Nan Qiao’s intentions.
Nan Qiao was curious, she was switched with Bai Yurou, but what did Zhou Jingya have to do with it?
Without delay, Nan Qiao went to the prison to try and get some information out of Liu Yanfang’s mouth.
Seeing Liu Yanfang, Nan Qiao was surprised.
Liu Yanfang had aged a great deal, her hair cut short, looking completely different from the Li Yanfang before.
When Liu Yanfang saw Nan Qiao, she was very emotional and shouted angrily, "Nan Qiao, what are you doing here now?"
Nan Qiao said, "Why did you bring me back home that year? When you took me back, did you notice anything amiss at the hospital, or did any particular person appear?"
Now, Nan Qiao could only hope to get the facts from Liu Yanfang’s mouth.
