The crisp sound stunned Song Chuyan. Even Jiang Ye, who had just parked his
car and rushed over, was stunned.
He looked at his good friendâs condition and was even more shocked. After all
these years, he had never seen Song Chuyan in such a sorry state.
Song Chuyan snapped back to reality from the slap. He looked at the familiar
yet also unfamiliar Song Jiaren in front of him and sneered. âWhat right do you
have to slap me?â
Song Chuyan closed her eyes. When she opened them again, they were already
extremely cold. âWe donât know whether Mom is alive or dead. You only know
how to mourn and blame yourself. Song Chuyan, youâre really useless. I really
look down on you. If you canât help us, please take care of yourself. Donât make
us worry about you.â
Song Chuyanâs body stiffened. He suddenly grabbed Song Jiarenâs arm and
asked, âWhat did you say happened to my mother?
Song Jiaren pushed his hand away and didnât answer his question. She threw
the letter that Song Meiyu had left her to him. Then, she walked to the door
and said to Jiang Ye, âSince heâs not dead, letâs go.â
Jiang Ye looked at his friend, who was sitting on the ground, and then at Song
Jiaren, who had already walked out. After some hesitation, he said to Song
Chuyan, âYour sister and I are going to Jiang Cityâs Jiang family to save Auntie
Song. Weâl leave first.â
With that, he caught up to Song Jiaren.
The two of them set off for the airport again. This time, Song Jiaren had her
eyes closed the entire time and didnât speak. Jiang Ye peeked at her a few times
and wanted to say something to defend his good friend, but he didnât know
what to say. After all, Chuyan had indeed gone a little overboard this time.
In the end, he shut up and concentrated on driving. He hoped that they would
still catch the earliest flight.
Fortunately, they managed to catch the plane at the last minute. Song Jiaren
was sitting in her seat and rubbing the jade pendant in her hand. When Jiang
Ye saw it, he asked, âDid Auntie Song give you this jade pendant?
Song Jiaren showed it to him and asked, âHave you seen this jade pendant?
Jiang Ye looked at it carefully and shook his head. âNo.â
A look of disappointment flashed across Song liarenâs eyes as she put away the
jade pendant and said nothing else.
Jiang Ye looked at his phone from time to time, as if he was waiting for some
news. He only put down his phone when the plane was about to take off and
turned it off.
The moment the plane landed, Song Jiaren and Jiang Ye arrived in this
unfamiliar city. Jiang Ye had been to Jiang City twice with his father, so he was
quite familiar with it. He brought Song Jiaren to a hotel. Song Jiaren looked up
at the TKEA Hotelâ hanging on the door plate and was puzzled.
We will stay in this hotel today. Come with me, Jiang Ye said confidently.
Song Jiaren could only follow him in. The moment they entered, Jiang Ye found
the hotel manager with great familiarity and asked for room 302 on the fifth
floor
He brought Song Jiaren to the room. It was a suite. The moment they entered,
they could see a French window with two bedrooms on both sides. Jiang Ye
brought her to the window of one of the bedrooms and said from the window,
âLook there
Song Ren stood on the chair and looked outside. She happened to see the
backyard of a villa and could even see servants tending to the garden.
This was..the Jiang familyâs home?
She instantly understood what Jiang Ye meant. She smiled and said, âWell
done!
Jiang Ye scratched his head and smiled. âI was very curious about the Jiang
family in Jiang City, so I found this hotel room.â
Song Jiaren took out a mini infrared telescope from her bag and looked out the
window. This time, she could even see the movements on the Jiang familyâs
building near the garden. This was the best place to survey.
Jiang Ye watched her in shock and asked, âYou even prepared a telescope?â
As Song Jiaren familiarized herself with the Jiang familyâs terrain, she replied,
âEven if you didnât find this place, I was prepared to find a high point to
observe the Jiang family first, so I prepared in advance.â
Surprise flashed across Jiang Yeâs eyes. He found this woman more and more
special. He joked, âWhy didnât I find you so interesting before? Otherwise, I
would have wooed you long ago.â
When Song Jiaren heard this, she paused and shook her head while ignoring
his childish words.
Jiang Yeâs phone rang. He turned it on and smiled. âThereâs good news. The
Jiang family is preparing to hold a banquet tomorrow. Our Jiang family is also
on the invite list, soI can bring you in tomorrow.â
