in coat, his cold face showing a hint of displeasure. "How did you sit up Didn't I tell you to lie down""I lie around all day, my body is stiff. Just let me sit for a while," she pleaded, grabbing his...Lu Hanchuan didn't even bother to respond to her. After coming down, he walked straight past her and disappeared at the entrance hall in a flash.
Qi Ya looked at his back, her expression contorted for a moment before returning to her usual composure, as if nothing had happened.
Outside the villa, Qiao Mu was waiting by the car. Seeing Lu Hanchuan come out, she hurriedly opened the backseat door for him to get in.
After Lu Hanzhen got into the car, he pressed his temples and said, "Let's go."
"Yes!" Qiao Mu replied, pulling open the driver's side door and getting in.
The car sped out of the villa district.
On the road, Lu Hanchuan kept answering phone calls. In less than ten minutes, he received three calls, all from the detective agency, mainly reporting on Shi Mo's location.
But unfortunately, when I found Shi Mo's residence, I didn't find Shi Mo himself. According to the people at the agency, Shi Mo hasn't been back to the villa for three days.
Then, where did Shi Mo go for those three days
"Mr. Lu, General Shi isn't here, should we still go to his villa" Joe Mu, the driver, asked.
Lu Hanchuan tapped the car door, "Go, I'll make him come back."
"Okay!" Qiao Mu nodded, stopped asking any further questions, and focused on driving his own car.
Half an hour later, Shi Mo arrived at his villa in City C.
Lu Hannan got out of the car and took a look at the villa in front of him before taking out his phone to call Shi Mo.
In the hospital, Shi Mo heard the phone ring and stopped talking to Fu Xiao Yao. He took out his cell phone and saw the caller ID, raising an eyebrow in surprise.
“What’s wrong” Fu Xiaoyao asked silently.
Although she couldn't see, she could still sense that something was wrong with him.
Shi Mo chuckled, "It's okay, it's Mr. Lu calling."
'Hanchuan' Fu Xiaoyao stiffened, 'Why is he calling'
"I don't know, let me ask him." Shi Mo said, answering the phone.
However, before he could open his mouth to greet him, Lu Hánchuan spoke first: "Shi Mo, I'm outside your villa."
Huh
Shi Mo was stunned for a second, "Outside my villa What is Lu Zong doing outside my villa"
"Three days ago, I said that I wanted to see him face-to-face, but he refused. There's no other way, so I had to find out where he was myself. Now I'm here, will he still not see me" Lu Hanchuan stated flatly.
Shi Mo chuckled and pressed his forehead, "President Lu is really persistent. It seems like it took a lot of effort to find me. If I were still hiding, that would be ungrateful. I'll be right back, please wait for me there for a while."
Lu Hanchuan snorted and hung up the phone.
Feeling the silence on the other end of the phone, Shi Mo realized something. He brought his phone closer and looked at it. Sure enough, he had been hung up on.
He shook his head and put the phone down, “I was just talking to Mr. Lu, did you hear that”
Fu Xiaoyao's lips moved slightly, 'I heard you. But how did Hanchuan find your villa You said he couldn't find you, but now he has found the villa and should be at the hospital soon.'
"Don't worry, it won't happen. My villa's location isn't a secret. As long as someone is willing to put in some effort, they can find it. As for the hospital, I erased my traces, so it's impossible to find me. Besides, who would think that I stayed there for three days" Shi Mo comforted her with a smile.
Fu Xiaoyao, upon hearing this, felt reassured. However, she still had some doubts. "Why does Hanchuan want to meet you"
"He didn't say anything, but it should be the person I sent to investigate his relationship with Qi Ya who was found out by him. He guessed it was me, so he wanted to talk to me." Shi Mo shrugged and said.
Fu Xiaoyao's mouth twitched, 'Found out this quickly'
She actually hit the nail on the head.
She knew his men would be discovered by Lu Hanchuan, but she didn't expect it to come back so quickly.
“Yes, Lu is very alert. Alright, I'll head back to the villa first. You rest well. I'll arrange for a nurse to take care of you. If anything happens, have the nurse contact me.” Shi Mo instructed.
Fu Xiaoyao agreed.
Shi Mo tucked the covers in for her, then walked out of the ward.
Back at the villa, it was already an hour later.
Lu Hanchuan saw Shi Mo arrive late, his face wasn't looking too good.
Shi Mo didn't mind, he smiled gently at him and took out his key card to open the door, inviting him in.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Lu. Because I decided to leave a few days ago, the villa was all covered up. Just make do sitting here for a bit." Shi Mo lifted the dust cover from the sofa and said to Lu Hanchuan.
Lu Hanchuan glanced disdainfully at the sofa, said nothing, and sat down.
"What would Lu Zong like to drink" Shi Mo asked.
Lu Hanchuan snorted coldly, "No need. Let's just get to the point. Is Fu Xiaoyao here with you!"
Shi Mo folded the dust cover with an almost imperceptible pause, then calmly folded it again. "How could General Lu ask such a question Your wife is already dead, why would you say she's here"
"She's not dead!" Lu Hanchuan looked at him, "Did you save her"
"Director Lu, what are you saying I don't quite understand. You said I saved your wife" Shi Mo put the folded dust cloth aside and sat down, right across from Lu Hanchuan.
Lu Hanchuan looked at his calm demeanor, for a moment, he couldn't tell if he was really pretending.
"Right, I did suspect you saved my wife." Lu Hanchuan nodded.
Shi Mo raised an eyebrow. "Why do you say that"
"I caught a detective today. Was he sent by Shizong" Lu Hanchuan narrowed his eyes at him.
Shi Mo smiled and didn't deny it.
"Lu Hanchuan said again, "You sent that detective to investigate my relationship with Qi Ya. I know you wouldn't have any thoughts about Qi Ya, so if no one asked you to do this, you wouldn't come investigate, would you"
Shi Mo listened, his eyelids drooping slightly, "Lu Zong's meaning is that it was your wife who asked me to investigate"
“Only she would care so much about my relationship with Qi Ya, and you also went to that industrial area before. Then, from the next day on, you deliberately inquired about me. I had been focusing all my attention and energy on finding Fu Xiaoyao, so I ignored you and didn’t think about it.”
"Saying that, Lu Hanchuan's gaze at Shi Mo became sharper and sharper, "Now I've focused my attention on you, so I can see things clearly. If it wasn't for Fu Xiaoyao, why would you pay attention to my affairs So Fu Xiaoyao is with you, right!"
Make love!
"Well done, Shi Mo applauded. "That's good deduction, but Mr. Lu, unfortunately, your wife isn't here with me. As you said, I went to the industrial district, but it was at night. At that time, the industrial district was already in ruins. How could I have saved your wife"
Lu Hanchuan pursed his thin lips, "Are you sure you went at night"
"Of course, Dr. Shao can attest to this. Dr. Shao was there at the time and saw me." Shi Mo replied, then spread his hands helplessly. "So, President Lu, I'm truly sorry, but I didn't save your wife. I arrived in the evening, while the industrial zone explosion and fire happened during the day. The time periods were different, so how could I have saved her"
Upon hearing this, Lu Hanchuan's expression grew somber. The thoughts he had harbored deep within him seemed to waver at this moment.
Indeed, with Shao Si Nian as a witness, Shi Mo couldn't possibly be lying. He arrived at night and truly couldn't have saved Fu Xiao Yao who had an accident during the day.
Then, did Fu Xiaoyao get rescuedly relieved now, "As long as he's alright. Just don't let him drink anymore in the future, Auntie Song, please keep an eye on him.""I know," Aunt Song replied."Great, I'll hang up now then.""Madam, wh...
