Chu Ningyi was just about to reply when his phone on the table rang. Chu Ningyi gestured at her to hold her horses as he reached out to picked up his phone. He answered the call after he checked the display on the screen.
“Young Master, he’s gone, no one has come out from the hospital.” Uncle Chu frowned.
“Gone? Where?” Chu Ningyi asked as he placed his laptop on the table. He then tapped his fingers against the table.
“He’s moved south, I don’t know yet. It looks like he had received a phone call before he left.”
Chu Ningyi listened to Uncle Chu’s words as the map of the southern part of the city flashed across his mind. After a short while, he said, “The prison. Lin Qianchen is in prison in the southern part of the city.”
He had changed direction. That means that the real culprit was really in the hospital. Was it Yuan Jiayi or… Lan Xin?
Perhaps he should have let Shui Anluo make that call from the very beginning. He would probably not have needed to make so many detours.
Shui Anluo overheard what Chu Ningyi said. She watched him end the call and hurriedly got up. “Lin Qianchen? You said Lin Qianchen?”
Chu Ningyi looked down at Shui Anluo who had gotten up as well. He saw the surprise in her eyes because he knew that Shui Anluo had always suspected Yuan Jiayi instead.
“We’ll find out once we get there,” Chu Ningyi replied and led Shui Anluo upstairs to change her clothes.
This time, Chu Ningyi was driving. Chu Ningyi chose a car that he had never driven before from the garage. He was probably afraid that someone might notice them. Shui Anluo got into the car with a cap over her head. Her little face was still filled with disbelief.
Chu Ningyi started the car. The space between his brows has folded into a crease as well.
“How can Lin Qianchen possibly hire a hitman? She’s sitting in jail! Besides, is this hitman an idiot? He’s actually running to the police station on his own.” Shui Anluo could not resist asking her questions.
“Maybe he’s been infected by your idiocy after failing to kill you,” Chu Ningyi sheepishly replied with a teasing tone in his voice.
Shui Anluo’s lips twitched as she stared at Chu Ningyi. She had asked a serious question.
Naturally, Chu Ningyi knew that those in that line of work would take risks out of desperation to get their money. Besides, even if Lin Qianchen had not been involved, it proves that she knew something as someone wants to make her the scapegoat.
That man probably thinks that Shui Anluo was dead. That must be why he was willing to take the risk and head to the police station to ask for money.
Shui Anluo tapped her own chin as if analyzing a very serious question.
Chu Ningyi looked at her twice and saw that her brows were furrowed each time. He could not help but ask, “What’re you thinking about?”
Shui Anluo continued to tap her chin and did not reply immediately.
Chu Ningyi held her hand with his free hand. He thought that she must be afraid so he persuaded her. “Don’t worry, in the future, there won’t…”
“Hey, how much do you think my life is worth?” Shui Anluo seemed to have returned to her senses and did not hear what Chu Ningyi was about to say. Instead, she interrupted him.
Chu Ningyi’s unspoken words died a premature death in his mouth.
Chu Ningyi was in a daze. He immediately flung her hand away and placed his right hand on the steering wheel. The slightly swollen vein on it described just how horrible his mood was.
Shui Anluo looked at Chu Ningyi’s retracted hand. She blinked, was this not a very ordinary question?
“Not worth any money at all!” Chu Ningyi gritted his teeth and spat angrily.
“If it’s not worth a thing, why would he walk into a trap? Is that person really that brain-dead?” Shui Anluo clicked her tongue.
Chu Ningyi glanced coolly at her from the side. He had really pinned the word ‘brain-dead’ on her head. However, considering that this was the mother of his child and the woman he had chosen, he has to endure it.
“However, I keep having this feeling that it’s really Yuan Jiayi. What should we do?” Shui Anluo suddenly emphasized. “Really, my sixth sense is telling me this.”
