Chapter 1444 - Du Lingyang was still vexed.

Upstairs.

Shi Hanchu followed Su Manman’s instructions and went upstairs to the dressing room inside Jiang Mingzhu’s room. He scattered a few pairs of black boots on the shoe rack and removed the insoles...

Indeed, something was folded and placed under the insoles! He took it out.

It was Jiang Yishi’s songwriting book. On it were Jiang Yishi’s scribbles, notes, and comments.

After Shi Hanchu took all the music sheets from inside the book, he looked at Jiang Mingzhu’s large dressing room, which was filled with Jiang Mingzhu’s clothes and shoes. They were all new, mostly only worn once...

A pair of white sports shoes caught his eyes.

He walked over and picked them up, his eyes instantly moistened.

He had bought these sports shoes for her when they were in Milan together...

Jiang Mingzhu, who loved beauty, had worn high heels when walking around Milan with Shi Hanchu. In the end, her feet couldn’t take it, so Shi Hanchu casually entered a store and bought her a pair of sports shoes.

Back then, Jiang Mingzhu had complained that they were ugly shoes.

But unexpectedly... Jiang Mingzhu wore them often.

The shoes had obviously been worn so many times, but Jiang Mingzhu had never thrown them away...

Shi Hanchu took the pair of shoes and sat down on the sofa in the dressing room. The memories he had with Jiang Mingzhu were so clear...

But for some reason, in those memories, Jiang Mingzhu’s face had become blurry.

He tried his best to see Jiang Mingzhu’s face clearly. He removed the layer of fog that covered Jiang Mingzhu’s face, but what he saw... was Su Manman’s face.

Shi Hanchu was shocked that something like this happened even while he was awake.

He gripped the pair of shoes tightly and let out a long exhale before putting them back on the rack.

He then returned downstairs with the unfolded music sheets in his hand.

Hearing the collection of footsteps, Meng Yuqiao stood up nervously and looked upstairs.

Meng Yuqiao’s heart was in her mouth when she saw Shi Hanchu tidying up some papers as he went downstairs.

Was that... Jiang Yishi’s music sheets?

She had searched everywhere in Jiang Mingzhu’s room but couldn’t find them. Where did Shi Hanchu get them from?

Shi Hanchu didn’t hide the music sheets from Meng Yuqiao because that was what Su Manman instructed. He simply walked downstairs with them in his hand.

He smiled as he said to Ye Qinghan, “Aunt Han, I’ve already found what I needed. I still have to rush back to the set today, so I won’t be accompanying you further. I’ll make the time to come again another day.”

Knowing that Shi Hanchu was busy, Ye Qinghan didn’t force him to stay. She nodded. “Drive safely.”

Meng Yuqiao stood not far away from Shi Hanchu, staring at the papers in Shi Hanchu’s hand. When she saw that they were music scores, her heart nearly jumped out of her throat.

It was indeed Jiang Yishi’s music sheets!

She and Du Lingyang had tried so hard to look for them, but they could not find them. However, Shi Hanchu easily found them...

Shi Hanchu was indeed Jiang Mingzhu’s real friend, so it wasn’t surprising that he could find those sheets easily!

But why had Shi Hanchu suddenly come to retrieve them at such a time?

After watching Shi Hanchu leave with the music sheets, Meng Yuqiao could no longer stay there.

Ye Qinghan didn’t stop her.

...

After exiting Jiang Mingzhu’s mother’s place, Shi Hanchu unlocked the car and had yet to open the car door when Su Manman appeared out of nowhere and snatched the script from Shi Hanchu’s hand.

He saw it was Su Manman, even though she was wearing a cap. He asked, frowning, “Why are you here?”

Su Manman smiled as she flipped through the music sheets one by one. After confirming that Shi Hanchu had brought all of them out, she smiled and waved the papers in her hand. “I asked you to help me get these. Of course, I’m here to get them!”

Shi Hanchu saw Su Manman’s smile as she looked at the sheets and asked her, “What do you plan to do now?”

From the corner of her eye, Su Manman could see Meng Yuqiao, who had just come out of her mother’s place. She smiled and waved the music sheets in her hand at Shi Hanchu. “I’ll take this first. If there’s anything else I need your help with, I’ll definitely tell you...”

As she spoke and waved the papers in her hand at Shi Hanchu, she pushed the sheets to her car, opened the car door, and left...

Meng Yuqiao’s face turned pale.

Shi Hanchu... was actually on Su Manman’s side!

Shi Hanchu seemed to have sensed that someone was looking at him, so Meng Yuqiao hurriedly hid herself away.

Shi Hanchu frowned and left in his car...n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Meng Yuqiao held back her intense heartbeat and hurriedly called Du Lingyang.

Du Lingyang was still vexed because of what happened on the set this morning!

Seeing that it was Meng Yuqiao’s call, Du Lingyang felt a little irritated and answered the call.

“Su Manman took Jiang Yishi’s music sheets!” Meng Yuqiao told him as she walked towards her car.

“What?” Du Lingyang’s scalp went numb. “How did that happen? Did Ye Qinghan suspect you? Since when had Su Manman become so familiar with Ye Qinghan that she could take away the music sheets?”

“Shi Hanchu visited Ye Qinghan today, saying he wanted to take something from Jiang Mingzhu’s belongings, so Ye Qinghan agreed! When Shi Hanchu came downstairs, I saw Jiang Yishi’s music sheets in his hand! I hurriedly followed him out... and I saw Shi Hanchu handing them to Su Manman!”

Meng Yuqiao got into the car and closed the door before adding, “I’ve tried my best to find them, but things just didn’t go my way!”

At the thought of how Shi Hanchu had defended Su Manman on set, Du Lingyang kicked the coffee table...

“They are indeed on the same side!” Du Lingyang’s hands were trembling.

Shi Hanchu and Su Manman wanted to gang up and kill him!

“What do you mean? How do you know they’re on the same side?” Meng Yuqiao asked. “Then what do we do now? Su Manman has already taken the music sheets away. This isn’t simply about me not fulfilling my promise to you. For the rest of the payment...”

Du Lingyang scratched his head. “Things have become like this, and you’re worried about your payment? If anything happens to me, who’s going to give you your payment?”

“Then I’m at my wit’s end now! What do you think I should do? Anyway... we agreed that I won’t do anything illegal!” Meng Yuqiao said.

Du Lingyang hung up on Meng Yuqiao, not knowing what to do...

He tugged at his hair and frantically paced back and forth to think of a solution.

Since Jiang Yishi’s music sheets were in Su Manman’s hands, he would just snatch them from her!

Su Manman knew too much. She had a wagging tongue and was always spouting nonsense...

What would he do if the police came looking for him?

Since Su Manman liked to meddle in other people’s business, then... he should let her accompany Jiang Mingzhu for being nosy!

Du Lingyang raised his head. His eyes were bloodshot. They were so red and scary that it was as if he had fallen into a state of craziness.
